PURPOSE Age-related cataract (ARC) is a complex multi-factorial disorder involving several genetic and environmental factors. The major intrinsic protein of lens fiber gene (MIP) encodes the most abundant junctional membrane protein in the mature lens and plays a critical role in maintainace of lens normal structure and internal circulation. To determine the relationship between single nucleoti...

Technology is pushing the fastest processors onto single mass-produced chips. Standards are defining a new level of integration: the Pizza Box – a one board computer with memory, disk, baseware, and middleware. These developments fundamentally change the way we will build computers. Future designs must leverage commodity products. Clusters of computers are the natural way to build future mainfr...

The chemistry of N-organosilylalkyl-substituted heterocyclic bases (thymine, adenine and cytosine) is described, covering the structures of model compounds, the synthesis of substituted oligo-siloxanes and a preliminary report of the synthesis of a poly(organosiloxane) with pendant N-alkyl(heterocycle) functionalities. N-Alkenylthymines CH2=CH(CH2)(n)T (T = thymine, n = 1 (1), 2 (2), 3 (3)) hav...

We show that there are at least 4t + 2 mutually disjoint, isomorphic Steiner triple systems on 6t + 3 points, if t ;?: 4. MiS Subject Classification: OSBOS

An online cryogenic distillation system for the removal of krypton and radon from xenon was designed constructed PandaX-4T, a highly sensitive dark matter detection experiment. The content in commercial product is expected to be reduced by 7 orders magnitude with 99% collection efficiency at flow rate 10 kg/h design. same can reduce reversed operation, an reduction factor about 1.8 PandaX-4T un...

Recently perovskite/crystalline Si (cSi) tandem cells draw considerable attention because their high efficiency can reduce the levelized cost of electricity and increase power density photovoltaics (PVs) to accelerate energy transition. While theoretical limits for are well known, practical less clear. Herein, a new method is presented calculate four-terminal (4T) based on performance single-ju...

Results from two leading dark matter experiments—XENONnT and PandaX-4T—rule out an enigmatic signal detected in 2020 set new constraints on particle candidates consisting of light fermions, respectively.

Given a basis B = {f1, . . . , fk} for 2-cocycles f : G×G → {±1} over a group G of order |G| = 4t, we describe a non-linear system of 4t− 1 equations and k indeterminates xi over ZZ2, 1 ≤ i ≤ k, whose solutions determine the whole set of cocyclic Hadamard matrices over G, in the sense that (x1, . . . , xk) is a solution of the system if and only if the 2-cocycle f = f1 1 · · · fk k gives rise t...

The List Hadwiger Conjecture asserts that every Kt-minor-free graph is tchoosable. We disprove this conjecture by constructing a K3t+2-minor-free graph that is not 4t-choosable for every integer t ≥ 1.
