Top quark spin and HtbHtb interaction in charged Higgs and top quark associated production at LHC

We study the charged Higgs production at LHC via its associated production with top quark. The kinematic cuts are optimized to suppress the background processes so that the reconstruction of the charged Higgs and top quark is possible. The angular distributions with respect to top quark spin are explored to study the $Htb$ interaction at LHC.Comment: 10 pages,5 figures, to appear in PR

Performance Evaluation of Heat Transfer Enhancement in Plate-fin Heat Exchangers with Offset Strip Fins

AbstractGenerally, the Offset Strip Fin (OSF) in a plate-fin heat exchanger provides a greater heat transfer coefficient than plain plate-fin, but it also leads to an increase in flow friction. A new parameter, called relative entropy generation distribution factor, Ψ*, is proposed to evaluate the thermodynamic advantages of OSFs. This parameter presents a ratio of relative changes of entropy generation. The relative effects of the geometrical parameters α, γ and δ are discussed. The results show that there exist the optimum values of α and γ at a certain flow condition, which obviously maximize the degree of the heat transfer enhancement of OSFs

Daylight-driven rechargeable antibacterial and antiviral nanofibrous membranes for bioprotective applications.

Emerging infectious diseases (EIDs) are a significant burden on global economies and public health. Most present personal protective equipment used to prevent EID transmission and infections is typically devoid of antimicrobial activity. We report on green bioprotective nanofibrous membranes (RNMs) with rechargeable antibacterial and antiviral activities that can effectively produce biocidal reactive oxygen species (ROS) solely driven by the daylight. The premise of the design is that the photoactive RNMs can store the biocidal activity under light irradiation and readily release ROS under dim light or dark conditions, making the biocidal function "always online." The resulting RNMs exhibit integrated properties of fast ROS production, ease of activity storing, long-term durability, robust breathability, interception of fine particles (>99%), and high bactericidal (>99.9999%) and virucidal (>99.999%) efficacy, which enabled to serve as a scalable biocidal layer for protective equipment by providing contact killing against pathogens either in aerosol or in liquid forms. The successful synthesis of these fascinating materials may provide new insights into the development of protection materials in a sustainable, self-recharging, and structurally adaptive form

Impact Analysis to Microstructure Primary Short Circuit Melted Mark under Different Heat Dissipation Condition

AbstractIn the identification of fire evidence, short circuit can be identified based on the metallurgical characteristics of the melted bead from the wire short-circuit. But because of the complexity in the real fire surroundings, short circuit melted bead is formed in many different ways. On the research, we analyze the microstructure characteristics of the short circuit melted bead in the condition of poor heat dissipation. By doing short circuit experiment in different cooling conditions, we can get the microstructure image of melted bead and compare them. Then analyze the difference and similarities and summary the variation law

Adsorpcija Cu2+, Zn2+ i Ni2+ iona na adsorbens pripremljen iz potrošenog FCC katalizatora i kremenih diatomita

An adsorbent prepared from fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) spent catalyst fines and diatomite, and its adsorption of Cu2+, Zn2+, and Ni2+ ions were investigated. The adsorbent was characterized by XRD, SEM, and N2 adsorption-desorption techniques. The results showed that the specific surface area and pore volume of adsorbent increased with the increase in FCC spent catalyst fines. The influence factors on the adsorption of the adsorbents were studied. The suitable adsorption conditions were: pH value of 5.0, ratio of solid to liquid of 1 : 600 (g:ml), adsorption time of 4 h, room temperature. The adsorption of metal ions varied with the type of metal cations. The adsorption isotherms suggested that the sequence of the adsorption efficiency was Cu2+ > Zn2+ > Ni2+. The amount of Cu2+, Zn2+, and Ni2+ metal ion adsorbed onto the adsorbent was 49.17 mg g–1, 46.83 mg g–1, and 35.72 mg g–1, respectively. The adsorption data of Cu2+, Zn2+, and Ni2+ ions fitted well with the Freundlich adsorption isotherm model.

Adsorbens je karakteriziran XRD, SEM i N2 adsorpcijsko-desorpcijskim tehnikama. Rezultati su pokazali da se specifična površina i volumen pora adsorbensa povećavaju s povećanjem količine potrošenog katalizatora FCC. Proučavani su čimbenici utjecaja na adsorpciju adsorbensa. Prikladni uvjeti adsorpcije bili su: pH vrijednost 5,0, omjer čvrste tvari i kapljevine 1 : 600 (g:ml), vrijeme adsorpcije 4 h i sobna temperatura. Adsorpcija metalnih iona varira s tipom metalnih kationa. Adsorpcijske izoterme pokazale su da je slijed učinkovitosti adsorpcije Cu2+ > Zn2+ > Ni2+. Količina metalnih iona Cu2+, Zn2+ i Ni2+ adsorbiranih na adsorbensu iznosila je 49,17 mg g–1, 46,83 mg g–1, odnosno 35,72 mg g–1. Podatci o adsorpciji iona Cu2+, Zn2+ i Ni2+ slijede model Freundlichove adsorpcijske izoterme. Ovo djelo je dano na korištenje pod licencom Creative Commons Imenovanje 4.0 međunarodna
