The revised Acrograptus is a dichograptid form with stipes subborizontal to deeply declined, sicula long and slender; th 11 budding from the top of the metasicula, proximal development of isograptid type with th 12 as the dicalycal theca; asymmetric proximal end resulting from the divergence of thl1 and thl2 from the sicula at different levels; slender crossing canals composed of extremely slender Acrograptus is assigned to the subfamily Sigmagraptinae prothecae of thlt and thl2. According to the revised definition, of the family Dichograptidae, including six species, i.e., A. affinis （Nicholson）, A. filiformis （Tullberg）, A. gracilis （Tornquist）, A. nicholsoni （Lapworth）, A. pusillus （Tullberg）, and A. saukros （Ni）. During the Early-Middle Ordovician, these six species were widely distributed in South China, especially in the Upper Yangtze Region as well as the central and eastern Jiangnan Region. This study further indicates that Acrograptus first appeared in a deep-water setting on the Jiangnan Slope in South China during early Floian （Tetragraptus approximatus Biozone）, and subsequently expanded into the shallow-water region on the Yangtze Platform due to a remarkable dispersion event in middle Floian （Pendeograptus fruticosus Biozone）. It is here indicated that the dispersal of Acrograptus may be directly controlled by the large-scale transgression event occurring in middle Floian.展开更多

Such peaks have been associated with the real part of a Regge pole trajectory, having a maximum near an integer value of the angular momentum quantum number. At the peak energies, the pertinent partial-wave phase shift was shown to have a local maximum near a value π/2 modulo π. This implies no time delay in the semiclassical context. The phenomenon is a quantum effect, lacking a semiclassical interpretation.展开更多
