    We investigate some spectral properties of time operators which are obtained through Canonical Commutation Relation (CCR) and Positive Operator Valued Measure (POVM) of quantum physics. In addition, we re-interpret the spectral properties of time operators from the standpoint of the Copenhagen Interpretation, especially, of W.Heisenberg.Comment: 9 pages, The Ryukoku Journal of Humanities and Science, Vol.35 No.2, March, 201

    Quantum Interference of Impurity Bound States in Bi2_{2}Sr2_{2}Ca(Cu1x_{1-x}Znx_{x})2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta} Probed by Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy

    In conventional superconductors, magnetic impurities form an impurity band due to quantum interference of the impurity bound states, leading to suppression of the superconducting transition temperature. Such quantum interference effects can also be expected in d-wave superconductors. Here, we use scanning tunneling microscopy to investigate the effect of multiple non-magnetic impurities on the local electronic structure of the high-temperature superconductor Bi2_{2}Sr2_{2}Ca(Cu1x_{1-x}Znx_{x})2_{2}O8+δ_{8+\delta}. We find several fingerprints of quantum interference of the impurity bound states including: (i) a two-dimensional modulation of local density-of-states with a period of approximately 5.4 \AA\ along the aa- and bb-axes, which is indicative of the d-wave superconducting nature of the cuprates; (ii) abrupt spatial variations of the impurity bound state energy; (iii)an appearance of positive energy states; (iv) a split of the impurity bound state. All of these findings provide important insight into how the impurity band in d-wave superconductors is formed.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures, to be published in PR

    Isolation and characterization of a yeast gene, MPD1, the overexpression of which suppresses inviability caused by protein disulfide isomerase depletion

    AbstractMPD1, a yeast gene the overexpression of which suppresses the inviability caused by the loss of protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) was isolated and characterized. The MPD1 gene product retained a single disulfide isomerase active site sequence (APWCGHCK), an N-terminal putative signal sequence, and a C-terminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention signal, and was a novel member of the PDI family. The gene product, identified in yeast extract, contained core size carbohydrates. MPD1 was not essential for growth, but overexpression of the gene suppressed the maturation defect of carboxypeptidase Y caused by PDI1 deletion, indicative of the related function to PDI in the yeast ER
