Associated production of a neutral top-Higgs with a heavy-quark pair in the \gamma\gamma collisions at ILC
We have studied the associated production processes of a neutral top-Higgs in
the topcolor assisted technicolor model with a pair of heavy quarks in
\gamma\gamma collisions at the International Linear Collider (ILC). We find
that the cross section for t\bar{t}h_t in \gamma\gamma collisions is at the
level of a few fb with the c.m. energy \sqrt{s}=1000 GeV, which is consistent
with the results of the cross section of t\bar{t}H in the standard model and
the cross section of t\bar{t}h in the minimal supersymmetric standard modeland
the little Higgs models. It should be distinct that hundreds of to thousands of
h_t per year can be produced at the ILC, this process of \gamma\gamma \to
t\bar{t}h_t is really interesting in testing the standard model and searching
the signs of technicolor.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures, some references are adde
Effects of Quercetin on Alleviating Dietary Lead (Pb)-Induced Growth Retardation and Oxidative Stress in Juvenile Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus)
This trial spanning 28 days, was conducted to investigate the effects of quercetin on alleviating dietary lead (Pb)-induced growth retardation and oxidative stress in juvenile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus). Four hundred fish were randomly divided into four treatments with four replicates in each group, 25 fish in each replicate. The four treatments were: control treatment (fed with a basal diet), Pb treatment (fed with a basal diet+800 mg Pb/kg), Pb+Q1 treatment (fed with a basal diet+800 mg Pb/kg+800 mg quercetin/kg), and Pb+Q2 treatment (fed with a basal diet+800 mg Pb/kg+1600 mg quercetin/kg). Compared with the control treatment, final body weight, weight gain rate and feed conversion rate of Pb treatment were significantly affected (P0.05). Survival rate of all treatments was similar (P>0.05). Malondialdehyde level, total antioxidation capacity level, and activity of superoxide dismutase, catalase and glutathione peroxidase in hepatopancreas of Pb treatment were significantly affected (P0.05).Results indicated that dietary quercetin supplementation could ameliorate the harmful effects of dietary Pb exposure on growth and effectively normalize antioxidant status in hepatopancreas of tilapia
Effect of temperature on microstructure and deformation mechanism of Fe-30Mn-3Si-4Al TWIP steel at strain rate of 700 s-1
As twinning-induced plasticity (TWIP) steel is one potential material for shaped charge liner due to the combination of high strength and high plasticity, deformation mechanism at high strain rate and high temperature is required to study. Compression experiments of Fe-30Mn-3Si-4Al TWIP steel were conducted using a Gleeble-1500 thermal simulation machine and a split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB) between 298 and 1073 K at strain rates of 10-3 and 700 s-1, respectively. Microstructures were observed using optical microscopy (OM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Results show that flow stress and densities of deformation twins and dislocations decrease with increasing deformation temperature at strain rates of 10-3 and 700 s-1. The stack fault energy (SFE) values (Γ) of Fe-30Mn-3Si-4Al TWIP steel at different temperatures were calculated using thermodynamic data. Based on corresponding microstructures, it can be inferred that at 700 s-1, twinning is the main deformation mechanism at 298-573 K for 30 mJ/m2≤Γ≤63 mJ/m, while dislocation gliding is the main deformation mechanism above 1073 K for Γ≥ 145 mJ/m2. In addition, with increasing strain rate from 10-3 to 700 s-1, the SFE range of twinning is enlarged and the SEF value of twinning becomes higher
