We perform an oscillation parameter-independent analysis of solar neutrino flux measurements from which we predict the charged-current rate at SNO relative to Standard Solar Model to be R SNO = 0.35 +0.16 −0.09(0.46 +0.13 −0.11) for oscillations to active (sterile) neutrinos. By alternately considering the B flux normalization fixed and free, we find that the flux measured by SuperKamiokande (S...

Mesoporous and/or macroporous SnO(2)-based powders have been prepared and their gas-sensing properties as thick film sensors towards H(2) and NO(2) have been investigated. The mesopores and macropores of various SnO(2)-based powders were controlled by self-assembly of sodium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate and polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) microspheres (ca. 800 nm in diameter), respectively. T...

Small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) and small Cajal body-specific RNAs (scaRNAs) are non-coding RNAs involved in the maturation of other RNA molecules and generally located in the introns of host genes. It is now emerging that altered sno/scaRNAs expression may have a pathological role in cancer. This study elucidates the patterns of sno/scaRNAs expression in multiple myeloma (MM) by profiling purif...

The ski/sno protooncogenes encode nuclear proteins that may act as transcription factors. We examined ski and sno mRNA expression in hemolymphopoietic lineages. The ski protooncogene is expressed in B- and T-lineage cells, mature macrophages, and mast cells. In normal murine marrow-derived progenitors analyzed by single-cell reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), ski expressi...

Our former study reported that Fe-Sn spinel (Fe3-xSnxO4) was easily formed when SnO2 and Fe3O4 were roasted under CO-CO2 atmosphere at 900-1100 °C. However, the formation procedure is still unclear and there is a lack of theoretical research on the formation mechanism of the Fe-Sn spinel. In this work, the reaction mechanisms between SnO2 and Fe3O4 under CO-CO2 atmosphere were determined using ...

One-dimensional SnO₂- and Li⁺-doped SnO₂ porous nanofibers were easily fabricated via electrospinning and a subsequent calcination procedure for ultrafast humidity sensing. Different Li dopant concentrations were introduced to investigate the dopant's role in sensing performance. The response properties were studied under different relative humidity levels by both statistic and dynamic tests. T...

The novel 3D SnO cabbages self-assembled by nanosheets were successfully synthesized via template-free hydrothermal growth method under facile conditions. The XRD results manifest that the as-prepared SnO is tetragonal phase. The TEM and HRTEM results show that the cabbage nanosheets are polycrystalline structure consisted of considerable single-crystalline nanoparticles. Two typical Raman mode...

The Super-Kamiokande (SK) and the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) experiments are monitoring the flux of 8 B solar neutrinos through the electron energy spectrum from the reactions ν e,µ,τ + e − → ν e,µ,τ + e − and ν e + d → p + p+e − , respectively. We show that the SK detector response to 8 B neutrinos in each bin of the electron energy spectrum (above 8 MeV) can be approximated, with good...

S-nitrosoalbumin (SNO-Alb) has been shown to be an efficacious cytoprotective molecule in acute lung injury, as well as ischemia-reperfusion injury in heart and skeletal muscle. Nonetheless, limited information is available on the cellular mechanism of such protection. Accordingly, we investigated the protective effects of SNO-Alb [ and its denitrosated congener, reduced albumin (SH-Alb) ] on t...

In this work, we introduce a bilayer ETL composed of lithium (Li)-doped compact SnO 2 (c-SnO ) and potassium-capped nanoparticle layers (NP-SnO to enhance the electron extraction charge transport properties in perovskite solar cells, resulting an improved PCE strongly reduced J – V hysteresis.
