We study the property of resonance by re-analyzing all experimental
data available, especially the cross section data. The final state
interactions of the , couple channel system are also taken
into account. A sizable coupling between the and is
found. The inclusion of the data indicates a small value of
eV.Comment: Refined analysis with new experimental data included. 13 page
Doublet bands in Cs in the triaxial rotor model coupled with two quasiparticles
The positive parity doublet bands based on the configuration in Cs have been investigated in the two
quasi-particles coupled with a triaxial rotor model. The energy spectra ,
energy staggering parameter , and
values, intraband ratios,
ratios, and orientation of the
angular momentum for the rotor as well as the valence proton and neutron are
calculated. After including the pairing correlation, good agreement has been
obtained between the calculated results and the data available, which supports
the interpretation of this positive parity doublet bands as chiral bands.Comment: Phys.Rev.C (accepted

Future energy, fuel cells, and solid-oxide fuel-cell technology
According to the US Department of Energy’s Energy Infomation Administration (EIA) (International Energy Outlook 2017), world energy consumption will increase 28% between 2015 and 2040, rising from 575 quadrillion Btu (∼606 quadrillion kJ) in 2015 to 736 quadrillion Btu (∼776 quadrillion kJ) in 2040. EIA predicts increases in consumption for all energy sources (excluding coal, which is estimated to remain flat)—fossil (petroleum and other liquids, natural gas), renewables (solar, wind, hydropower), and nuclear. Although renewables are the world’s fastest growing form of energy, fossil fuels are expected to continue to supply more than three-quarters of the energy used worldwide. Among the various fossil fuels, natural gas is the fastest growing, with a projected increase of 43% from 2015 to 2040. As the use of fossil fuels increases, the EIA projects world energy-related carbon dioxide emission to grow from ∼34 billion metric tons in 2015 to ∼40 billion metric tonnes in 2040 (an average 0.6% increase per year)
