    A SiO J = 5 - 4 Survey Toward Massive Star Formation Regions

    Full text link
    We performed a survey in the SiO J=54J=5\rightarrow4 line toward a sample of 199 Galactic massive star-forming regions at different evolutionary stages with the SMT 10 m and CSO 10.4 m telescopes. The sample consists of 44 infrared dark clouds (IRDCs), 86 protostellar candidates, and 69 young \HII\ regions. We detected SiO J=54J=5\rightarrow4 line emission in 102 sources, with a detection rate of 57\%, 37\%, and 65\% for IRDCs, protostellar candidates, and young \HII\ regions, respectively. We find both broad line with Full Widths at Zero Power (FWZP) >> 20 \kms and narrow line emissons of SiO in objects at various evolutionary stages, likely associated with high-velocity shocks and low-velocity shocks, respectively. The SiO luminosities do not show apparent differences among various evolutionary stages in our sample. We find no correlation between the SiO abundance and the luminosity-to-mass ratio, indicating that the SiO abundance does not vary significantly in regions at different evolutionary stages of star formation.Comment: 25 pages, 9 figures, 5 tables, accepted for publication in Ap

    Millimeter Spectral Line Mapping Observations Toward Four Massive Star Forming HII Regions

    Full text link
    We present spectral line mapping observations toward four massive star-forming regions (Cepheus A, DR21S, S76E and G34.26+0.15), with the IRAM 30 meter telescope at 2 mm and 3 mm bands. Totally 396 spectral lines from 51 molecules, one helium recombination line, ten hydrogen recombination lines, and 16 unidentified lines were detected in these four sources. An emission line of nitrosyl cyanide (ONCN, 140,14_{0,14}-130,13_{0,13}) was detected in G34.26+0.15, as first detection in massive star-forming regions. We found that the cc-C3_{3}H2_{2} and NH2_{2}D show enhancement in shocked regions as suggested by evidences of SiO and/or SO emission. Column density and rotational temperature of CH3_{3}CN were estimated with the rotational diagram method for all four sources. Isotope abundance ratios of 12^{12}C/13^{13}C were derived using HC3_{3}N and its 13^{13}C isotopologue, which were around 40 in all four massive star-forming regions and slightly lower than the local interstellar value (\sim65). 14^{14}N/15^{15}N and 16^{16}O/18^{18}O abundance ratios in these sources were also derived using double isotopic method, which were slightly lower than that in local interstellar medium. Except for Cep A, 33^{33}S/34^{34}S ratio in the other three targets were derived, which were similar to that in the local interstellar medium. The column density ratios of N(DCN)/N(HCN) and N(DCO+^{+})/N(HCO+^{+}) in these sources were more than two orders of magnitude higher than the elemental [D]/[H] ratio, which is 1.5×\times105 ^{-5}. Our results show the later stage sources, G34.26+0.15 in particular, present more molecular species than earlier stage ones. Evidence of shock activity is seen in all stages studied.Comment: 32 pages, 11 figures, 8 tables, accepted for publication in MNRA

    In recent years, the problem of community governance in transition has attracted more and more attention in academic circles. In China, a lot of problems and challenges have happened in the process of community governance, which have hindered social development and damage the power of residents, it is urgent to seek a way to solve these issues. Policy network theory and method offer new perspective and solution for the study of community governance, it may could effectively alleviate current community governance issues. Based on policy network analytical model, the paper discusses characteristics of policy network in the process of community governance from five basic dimensions which are actors, resources, relationships, rules, cognition, and then takes a unit community in transition in China as an example. Results show that main reasons for inefficient or invalid community policy network output are large difference between network actors’ targets, unfair distribution of resources, mutual cognition deficiency and lacking of network managers and institutions. Therefore, constructing effective interactive mechanism of policy network is an effective way to protect rights and interests of residents and promote community governance.

    Biased compensation recursive least squares-based threshold algorithm for time-delay rational models via redundant rule

    © 2017, Springer Science+Business Media B.V., part of Springer Nature. This paper develops a biased compensation recursive least squares-based threshold algorithm for a time-delay rational model. The time-delay rational model is transformed into an augmented model by using the redundant rule, and then, a recursive least squares algorithm is proposed to estimate the parameters of the augmented model. Since the output of the augmented model is correlated with the noise, a biased compensation method is derived to eliminate the bias of the parameter estimates. Furthermore, based on the structures of the augmented model parameter vector and the rational model parameter vector, the unknown time delay can be computed by using a threshold given in prior. A simulated example is used to illustrate the efficiency of the proposed algorithm

    Poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were synthesized by using chain transfer agents(CTA), S-1-Dodecyl-S′-(α,α′-dimethyl-α-acetic acid) trithiocarbonate (MTTCD), S,S′-bis (2-hydroxyethyl-2′-dimethylacrylate) trithiocarbonate (BDATC), 2-cyanoprop-2-yl dithiobenzoate (CPDB) respectively, through the reversible addition fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization under a range of synthesis conditions. The results indicated that the structure of the end-group of RAFT agents had significant effects on the ability to control polymerization. Compared with MTTCD and CPDB, BDATC can provide better control over the relative molecular mass, distribution and polymerization of PMMA. The derived well-controlled block copolymer PMMA-b-PDMAEMA and PMMA-b-PDMAEA were also successfully prepared by using N, N-dimethylaminoethy acrylate (DMAEA) or N, N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) as the second monomer. The chemical composition and structure of the products were characterized by FTIR, 1HNMR, XRD and DSC. CO2 and N2 permeation performance of the PMMA-b-PDMAEA/PS composite membranes were tested at different pressure. The results showed that the resulted composited membrane had a CO2 permeation rate of 3.68×10-5cm3 (STP) cm-2s-1cmHg-1, a N2 permeation rate of 1.78×10-7 cm3 (STP) cm-2s-1cmHg-1 and an ideal CO2/ N2 selectivity of 206.6 at a feed gas pressure of 7.6 cmHg and 30 oC

    An improved dynamic ID-based remote user authentication with key agreement scheme

    Get PDF
    In recent years, several dynamic ID-based remote user authentication schemes have been proposed. In 2012, Wen and Li proposed a dynamic ID-based remote user authentication with key agreement scheme. They claimed that their scheme can resist impersonation attack and insider attack and provide anonymity for the users. However, we will show that Wen and Li's scheme cannot withstand insider attack and forward secrecy, does not provide anonymity for the users, and inefficiency for error password login. In this paper, we propose a novel ECC-based remote user authentication scheme which is immune to various known types of attack and is more secure and practical for mobile clients
