Possible Way to Synthesize Superheavy Element Z=117
Within the framework of the dinuclear system model, the production of
superheavy element Z=117 in possible projectile-target combinations is analyzed
systematically. The calculated results show that the production cross sections
are strongly dependent on the reaction systems. Optimal combinations,
corresponding excitation energies and evaporation channels are proposed in this
letter, such as the isotopes ^{248,249}Bk in ^{48}Ca induced reactions in 3n
evaporation channels and the reactions ^{45}Sc+^{246,248}Cm in 3n and 4n
channels, and the system ^{51}V+^{244}Pu in 3n channel.Comment: 10 pages, 4 figures, 1 tabl
A Note on Normal Forms of Quantum States and Separability
We study the normal form of multipartite density matrices. It is shown that
the correlation matrix (CM) separability criterion can be improved from the
normal form we obtained under filtering transformations. Based on CM criterion
the entanglement witness is further constructed in terms of local orthogonal
observables for both bipartite and multipartite systems.Comment: 8 page
Quantum-defect theory of resonant charge exchange
We apply the quantum-defect theory for potential to study the
resonant charge exchange process. We show that by taking advantage of the
partial-wave-insensitive nature of the formulation, resonant charge exchange of
the type of S+S can be accurately described over a wide range of
energies using only three parameters, such as the \textit{gerade} and the
\textit{ungerade} wave scattering lengths, and the atomic polarizability,
even at energies where many partial waves contribute to the cross sections. The
parameters can be determined experimentally, without having to rely on accurate
potential energy surfaces, of which few exist for ion-atom systems. The theory
further relates ultracold interactions to interactions at much higher
temperatures.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figure
Multiple-Level Power Allocation Strategy for Secondary Users in Cognitive Radio Networks
In this paper, we propose a multiple-level power allocation strategy for the
secondary user (SU) in cognitive radio (CR) networks. Different from the
conventional strategies, where SU either stays silent or transmit with a
constant/binary power depending on the busy/idle status of the primary user
(PU), the proposed strategy allows SU to choose different power levels
according to a carefully designed function of the receiving energy. The way of
the power level selection is optimized to maximize the achievable rate of SU
under the constraints of average transmit power at SU and average interference
power at PU. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed strategy can
significantly improve the performance of SU compared to the conventional
strategies.Comment: 12 page

A Targeted Quantitative Proteomic Method Revealed a Substantial Reprogramming of Kinome during Melanoma Metastasis.
Kinases are involved in numerous critical cell signaling processes, and dysregulation in kinase signaling is implicated in many types of human cancers. In this study, we applied a parallel-reaction monitoring (PRM)-based targeted proteomic method to assess kinome reprogramming during melanoma metastasis in three pairs of matched primary/metastatic human melanoma cell lines. Around 300 kinases were detected in each pair of cell lines, and the results showed that Janus kinase 3 (JAK3) was with reduced expression in the metastatic lines of all three pairs of melanoma cells. Interrogation of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) data showed that reduced expression of JAK3 is correlated with poorer prognosis in melanoma patients. Additionally, metastatic human melanoma cells/tissues exhibited diminished levels of JAK3 mRNA relative to primary melanoma cells/tissues. Moreover, JAK3 suppresses the migration and invasion of cultured melanoma cells by modulating the activities of matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9 (MMP-2 and MMP-9). In summary, our targeted kinome profiling method provided by far the most comprehensive dataset for kinome reprogramming associated with melanoma progression, which builds a solid foundation for examining the functions of other kinases in melanoma metastasis. Moreover, our results reveal a role of JAK3 as a potential suppressor for melanoma metastasis
On Estimation of Fully Entangled Fraction
We study the fully entangled fraction (FEF) of arbitrary mixed states. New
upper bounds of FEF are derived. These upper bounds make complements on the
estimation of the value of FEF. For weakly mixed quantum states, an upper bound
is shown to be very tight to the exact value of FEF.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure
Optical generation of hybrid entangled state via entangling single-photon-added coherent state
We propose a feasible scheme to realize the optical entanglement of
single-photon-added coherent state (SPACS) and show that, besides the Sanders
entangled coherent state, the entangled SPACS also leads to new forms of hybrid
entanglement of quantum Fock state and classical coherent state. We probe the
essential difference of two types of hybrid entangled state (HES). This HES
provides a novel link between the discrete- and the continuous-variable
entanglement in a natural way.Comment: 6 pages, 2 figure
