Pilgrim Hot Springs has a known shallow geothermal reservoir with temperatures approaching 91 ̊C in the top 100 meters of the system that underlies the main hot springs area of 1.5 km. The deeper reservoir is less understood with similar temperatures at the basement surface 320 meters directly beneath the hot springs. The aspect of this research is to create a stratigraphic model and delineate p...

This study investigated the effects of the hot isostatic pressing process on the crack healing, microstructure, and mechanical properties of the laser repair-welded CM247LC precipitation-hardened superalloy. To ensure the strength of the repair-welded area, this study used the direct re-melting approach, and simulated the repair welding with the filler addition, which has a chemical composition...

Close-in giant planets (e.g., "hot Jupiters") are thought to form far from their host stars and migrate inward, through the terrestrial planet zone, via torques with a massive gaseous disk. Here we simulate terrestrial planet growth during and after giant planet migration. Several-Earth-mass planets also form interior to the migrating jovian planet, analogous to recently discovered "hot Earths....

In zeolites, diffusion is often accompanied by a reaction or sorption which in turn can induce temperature inhomogeneities. Monte Carlo simulations of Lennard–Jones atoms in zeolite NaCaA are reported for the presence of a hot zone presumed to be created by a reaction or chemior physi-sorption site. These simulations show that the presence of localized hot regions can alter both kinetic and tra...

Early esophageal squamous cell neoplasias (ESCNs) are easily missed with conventional white-light endoscopy. This study aimed to assess whether early ESCNs have a spatial predilection and the patterns of recurrence after endoscopic treatment. We analyzed the circumferential and longitudinal location of early ESCNs, as well as their correlations with exposure to carcinogens in a cohort of 162 su...
