    AbstractWith more and more data buoys are produced to study the oceans, how to deploy them in a convenient and economic way is very important. In the past, the deployment is often accomplished by large special vessel, which needs a lot of manpower and material resources. Here we introduce a novel deploying method for moored data buoy based on small vessel. This method employs a small vessel with two pulleys(one is served as movable pulley, the other is stable pulley.) and a winch. By way of the relay, it drops all the mooring chain into the water step by step. At last, the anchor is made into ocean water. After several experiments inspection, this anchor-last deploying method for moored data buoy is safe and efficient

    The consistency of estimator under fixed design regression model with NQD errors

    In this article, basing on NQD samples, we investigate the fixed design nonparametric regression model, where the errors are pairwise NQD random errors, with fixed design points, and an unknown function. Nonparametric weighted estimator will be introduced and its consistency is studied. As special case, the consistency result for weighted kernel estimators of the model is obtained. This extends the earlier work on independent random and dependent random errors to NQD case

    Anderson Impurity in Helical Metal

    We use a trial wave function to study the spin-1/2 Kondo effect of a helical metal on the surface of a three-dimensional topological insulator. While the impurity spin is quenched by conduction electrons, the spin-spin correlation of the conduction electron and impurity is strongly anisotropic in both spin and spatial spaces. As a result of strong spin-orbit coupling, the out-of-plane component of the impurity spin is found to be fully screened by the orbital angular momentum of the conduction electrons.Comment: The published versio

    Quantum Radiation Properties of Dirac Particles in General Nonstationary Black Holes

    Quantum radiation properties of Dirac particles in general nonstationary black holes in the general case are investigated by both using the method of generalized tortoise coordinate transformation and considering simultaneously the asymptotic behaviors of the first-order and second-order forms of Dirac equation near the event horizon. It is generally shown that the temperature and the shape of the event horizon of this kind of black holes depend on both the time and different angles. Further, we give a general expression of the new extra coupling effect in thermal radiation spectrum of Dirac particles which is absent from the thermal radiation spectrum of scalar particles. Also, we reveal a relationship that is ignored before between thermal radiation and nonthermal radiation in the case of scalar particles, which is that the chemical potential in thermal radiation spectrum is equal to the highest energy of the negative energy state of scalar particles in nonthermal radiation for general nonstationary black holes
