Heat-operated cryogenic electrical generator
Generator operation is based upon unusual hydrodynamic properties exhibited by liquid helium below superfluid critical point. Below that temperature, liquid behaves as though it is mixture of two interpenetrating fluids. When transition takes place between superfluid and normal states, conservation of momentum is always balanced by normal fluid

Particle-Hole Symmetry Breaking and the 5/2 Fractional Quantum Hall Effect
We report on the study of the fractional quantum Hall effect at the filling
factor 5/2 using exact diagonalization method with torus geometry. The
particle-hole symmetry breaking effect is considered using an additional
three-body interaction. Both Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian states can be the
ground state depending on the sign of the three-body interaction. The results
of the low-energy spectrum, the wave function overlap, and the particle-hole
parity evolution, have shown the clear evidence of a direct sharp transition
(possibly first-order) from the Pfaffian to the anti-Pfaffian state at the
Coulomb point. A quantum phase diagram is established, where one finds further
transitions from the Pfaffian or anti-Pfaffian state to the nearby compressible
phases induced by a change of the pseudopotential.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
Resonant chambers for suspending materials in air
Acoustical pressure of standing wave is used to suspend materials inside resonant chambers. Material is driven to standing-wave antinodes where pressure is lowest. Pressure at nodes is greatest, which prevents suspended material from collecting there. Material can be moved inside chambers by changing wave patterns

The application of Han Dynasty cultural elements to modern product design
Chinese Han Culture, as Chinese nation's "core culture", is the cultural symbol of Chinese nation, and played an important role in the history of Chinese cultural development, even in the history of world cultural development. Designing in the Han Dynasty, while inheriting Chinese traditional culture, but also having its unique style, are appreciated and respected by the people nowadays. In a modern society where the design is becoming more diversified, the innovative design based on traditional culture and art has its unique charm and vitality. This paper presented our recent research on the application of Han Dynasty cultural elements to modern product design, reflected the local design connotation of Han Dynasty cultural elements
Clustering induced suppression of ferromagnetism in diluted magnets
Ferromagnetism in diluted magnets in the compensated regime p << x is shown
to be suppressed by the formation of impurity spin clusters. The majority bulk
spin couplings are shown to be considerably weakened by the preferential
accumulation of holes in spin clusters, resulting in low-energy magnon
softening and enhanced low-temperature decay of magnetic order. A locally
self-consistent magnon renormalization analysis of spin dynamics shows that
although strong intra-cluster correlations tend to prolong global order, T_c is
still reduced compared to the ordered case.Comment: published version, 5 pages, 4 figure
