A measurement of the branching ratio K+-P~+~~~/K~--+~~I/,, was made using stopped kaons from pp annihilations at rest and a. magnetic spectrometer to measure the momenta of the charged decay product to the 1% to 1.5% level. The determination is based on 45,500 events passing final data cuts. The resulting ratio is .3329 f .0047 (statistical) f.OO1O (systematic). Submitted to Physical Review D. ...

We present measurements of Z to heavy-quark coupling electroweak parameters, Rb, Rc, and parity-violation parameter Ac, from SLD. The measurements are based on approximately 550k hadronic Z events collected in 1993-98. Obtained preliminary results of Rb and Rc measurements are Rb = 0:2159 0:0014 0:0014 and Rc = 0:1685 0:0047 0:0043. In the Ac measurement, we use four methods to determine the in...

The Chinese higher education system is the largest in the world, but distance education, using information communication technologies (ICTs), started later than in developed countries. In this paper, the author examines the benefits of education to human development and provides an overview of the recent development of distance higher education in China. The potential for further developing dis...

UNLABELLED Small molecule fluorometric boron dipyrromethene probes were developed to bind hepatitis C virus-encoded NS5A protein and aid subcellular distribution studies. These molecules did not co-locate with NS5A, therefore alternative 'silent' azide reporters were used to obtain a more relevant picture of their distribution. Following pre-incubation with replicon cells, click chemistry was u...
