Recently, the dark matter particle explorer (DAMPE) collaboration has reported its first result of the total CR e^± spectrum from 25 GeV to 4.6TeV with high precision. In this work, we study the DM annihilation and pulsar interpretations of this result. We show that the leptonic DM annihilation channels to r+'/"-, 4p, 4"/', and mixed charged lepton final states can well explain the DAMPE e^± spectrum. We also find that the mixed charged leptons channel would lead to a sharp drop structure at - TeV. However, the ordinary DM explanations have been almost excluded by the constraints from the observations of gamma-ray and CMB, unless some exotic DM models are introduced. In the pulsar scenario, we analyze 21 nearby known pulsars and assume that one of them dominantly contributes to the high energy CR e^± spectrum. Involving the constraint from the Fermi-LAT observation of the e^± anisotropy, we find that two pulsars could explain the DAMPE e^± spectrum. Our results show that it is difficult to discriminate between the DM annihilation and single pulsar explanations of high energy e^± with the current DAMPE result.展开更多

We want to find the factors which can predict the final functional outcomes of these cases. Methods: All patients who presented to Accident and Emergency Department (ED) of the National Cheng Kung University Hospital from 1st January 2005 to 31th December 2013 with a hanging injury were included in this study. All cases were divided into good outcome group and bad outcome group according to Glasgow Outcome Scale (GOS). Data was analyzed by Mann-Whitney test and chi-square test. Results: Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) 〈 3, pupil dilation and no pupillary light reflex both at the scene and ED were the factors to indicate poor functional outcome. Out-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), acidosis (pH 〈 Z2) and the need for intubation once arriving at ED were also related to poor functional outcome. OHCA cases all had poor functional outcome, Conclusion: GCS, pupil size, pupiUary light reflex, OHCA and acidosis are useful as prognostic factors. GCS= 3 lead to a very poor outcome. However, the functional outcome seems good in patients with GCS〉3. There parameters can help to predict the outcome before treatment.展开更多
