The subordinated processes controlled by a family of subordinators and corresponding Fokker-Planck type equations
In this work, we consider subordinated processes controlled by a family of
subordinators which consist of a power function of time variable and a negative
power function of stable random variable. The effect of parameters in
the subordinators on the subordinated process is discussed. By suitable
variable substitutions and Laplace transform technique, the corresponding
fractional Fokker-Planck-type equations are derived. We also compute their mean
square displacements in a free force field. By choosing suitable ranges of
parameters, the resulting subordinated processes may be subdiffusive, normal
diffusive or superdiffusive.Comment: 11 pages, accepted by J. Stat. Mech.: Theor. Ex
Observational constraint on Dark Energy from Quantum Uncertainty
We explore the theoretical possibility that dark energy density is derived
from massless scalar bosons in vacuum and present a physical model for dark
energy. By assuming massless scalar bosons fall into the horizon boundary of
the cosmos with the expansion of the universe, we can deduce the uncertainty in
the relative position of scalar bosons based on the quantum fluctuation of
space-time and the assumption that scalar bosons satisfy P-symmetry under the
parity transformation , which can be used
to estimate scalar bosons and dark energy density. Furthermore, we attempt to
explain the origin of negative pressure from the increasing entropy density of
the Boltzmann system and derive the equation for the state parameter, which is
consistent with the specific equations of state for dark energy. Finally, we
employ the SNIa Pantheon sample and Planck 2018 CMB angular power spectra to
constrain the models and orovide statistical results for the cosmology

X-Ray Repair Cross Complementing 4 (XRCC4) Genetic Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms and the Liver Toxicity of AFB1 in Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Our previous reports have shown that the genetic single-nucleotide polymorphisms (GSNPs) in the DNA repair gene X-ray repair cross complementing 4 (XRCC4) are involved in the carcinogenesis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) induced by aflatoxin B1 (AFB1). However, the effects of GSNPs in the coding regions of XRCC4 on hepatic toxicity of AFB1 have been less investigated. We conducted a hospital-based clinic tissue samples with pathologically diagnosed HCC (n = 380) in a high AFB1 exposure area to explore the possible roles of GSNPs in the coding regions of XRCC4 in AFB1-induced HCC using liver toxicity assays. A total of 143 GSNPs were included in the present study and genotyped using the SNaPshot method, whereas the liver toxicity of AFB1 was evaluated using AFB1-DNA adducts in the tissues with HCC. In the clinicopathological samples with HCC, the average adduct amount is 2.27 ± 1.09 μmol/mol DNA. Among 143 GSNPs of XRCC4, only rs1237462915, rs28383151, rs762419679, rs766287987, and rs3734091 significantly increased the levels of AFB1-DNA adducts. Furthermore, XRCC4 GSNPs (including rs28383151, rs766287987, and rs3734091) also increased cumulative hazard for patients with HCC. These results suggest that the liver toxicity of AFB1 may be modified by XRCC4 GSNPs
Quality test of clamping connection of transmission lines across tensile line
This paper develops a new technology for the quality inspection of the transmission line that is important across the tensile clamp. The new technology mainly based on the ultrasonic pulse echo thickness measurement mechanism tests the thickness of the aluminum sleeve after crimping the tensile clamp to reflect the relative position of the aluminum sleeve and the steel anchor after the crimping, thereby judging whether there is a crimping positioning defect. At the same time, it is supplemented by steel anchor model comparison, crimping position length comparison, and crimping to margin detection to determine whether the transmission line crimping quality is qualified
