    For every integer k≥2k\geq 2, we construct infinite families of mutually nondiffeomorphic irreducible smooth structures on the topological 44-manifolds (2k−1)(S2×S2)(2k-1)(S^2\times S^2) and (2k-1)(\CP#\CPb), the connected sums of 2k−12k-1 copies of S2×S2S^2\times S^2 and \CP#\CPb.Comment: 6 page
