Astronomical observations provide the only means to test this basic assumption on cosmological time and distance scales. The possibility of variations in the dimensionless physical constant μ-the proton-to-electron mass ratio, can be tested by comparing astronomical measurements of the rest frequency of certain spectral lines at radio wavelengths with laboratory determinations. Different types of molecular transitions have different dependencies on μ and so observations of two or more spectral lines towards the same astronomical source can be used to test whether there is any evidence for either temporal or spatial changes in the physical fundamental constants. μ will change if the relative strength of the strong nuclear force compared to the electromagnetic force varies. Theoretical studies have shown that the rotational transitions of some molecules which have transitions in the frequency range that will be covered by FAST(e.g., CH_3 OH, OH and CH) are sensitive to changes in μ. A number of studies looking for possible variations in μ have been undertaken with existing telescopes, however, the greater sensitivity of FAST means it will open new opportunities to significantly improve upon measurements made to date.In this paper, we discuss which molecular transitions and sources(both in the Galaxy and external galaxies)are likely targets for providing improved constraints on μ with FAST.展开更多

The measurement provides a large CD measuring range with good accuracies (±2000 ± 35 ps/nm), and independent of the bit-rate and data format. In addition, the use of electronic mixer and low-speed detectors makes it cost effective for in-line CD measurement.展开更多

文摘Inactivated COVID-19 vaccines have been widely used to vaccinate the Chinese population.However,limited literature exists to explore the effect of obesity on the humoral and cellular immune response to these vaccines.In this study,132 high BMI(Body mass index)(obesity and overweight,BMI≥24 kg/m^(2))and 82 normal BMI(BMI<24 kg/m^(2))participants were enrolled.Adverse events(AEs),Spike receptor-binding domain IgG antibody(anti-RBD-IgG),neutralizing antibodies(NAbs),and specific B-cell and T-cell responses were evaluated 21–105 days after full-course inactivated COVID-19 vaccination.The overall incidence of AEs was similar in individuals with and without obesity/overweight.No serious vaccine-related AEs occurred.Individuals with obesity/overweight had a reduced seropositivity rate of NAbs compared to those with normal BMI.Anti-RBD-IgG and NAbs titers in the high BMI group were significantly lower than those in the normal BMI group.The frequencies of RBD-specific memory B cells(MBCs)and the numbers of spike-specific TNF-α+spot-forming cells(SFCs)in individuals with obesity/overweight were reduced compared with those noted in individuals without obesity/overweight.A similar trend of weakened humoral responses was also observed in individuals with central obesity.Our study results suggested that inactivated COVID-19 vaccines were safe and well tolerated but induced poor humoral and cellular immune responses in Chinese individuals with obesity/overweight.
