Peculiarity of magnetoresistance of discontinuous ferromagnetic thin films

The magnetoresistive properties of discontinuous ferromagnetic Fe and Co thin films deposited by electron-beam sputtering onto glass substrates at room temperature were investigated. Tunnel magnetoresistance(MR) was observed for all of the as-deposited samples. The maximum MR was observed for Fe thin films with an effective thickness of 17 nm. In the case of the Co thin films, the annealing process led to a change of the type of MR to anisotropic at Co film thicknesses(dCo) of 15 ≤ d_(Co) ≤ 25 nm and to positive isotropic at thicknesses of d_(Co) < 15 nm. By contrast, the MR type of Fe thin films did not change.

On the Identification of N-rich Metal-poor Field Stars with Future Chinese Space Station Telescope

During the long term evolution of globular clusters(GCs), some member stars are lost to the field. The recently found nitrogen-rich(N-rich) metal-poor field stars are promising candidates of these GC escapees, since N enhancement is the fingerprint of chemically enhanced populations in GCs. In this work, we discuss the possibility of identifying N-rich metal-poor field stars with the upcoming Chinese Space Station Telescope(CSST). We focus on the main survey camera with NUV, u, g, r, i, z, y filters and slitless spectrograph with a resolution about 200.The combination of UV sensitive equipment and prominent N-related molecular lines in the UV band bodes well for the identification: the color–color diagram of(u-g) versus(g-r) is capable of separating N-rich field stars from normal halo stars, if metallicity can be estimated without using the information on u-band photometry.Besides, the synthetic spectra show that a signal-to-noise ratio of 10 is sufficient to identify N-rich field stars. In the near future, a large sample of N-rich field stars found by CSST, combined with state-of-the-art N-body simulations will be crucial to deciphering GC-Galaxy co-evolution.

The Significance of Thermally Pulsing Asymptotic Giant Branch Stars in Post-starburst Galaxies

We measure the significance of thermally pulsing asymptotic giant branch(TP-AGB)stars via the spectral energy distributions(SEDs)of a sample of post-starburst(PSB)galaxies at z=0.2-0.7.Using ground-and space-based photometry from the 3D-HST catalog,as well as associated near-infrared(NIR)Hubble Space Telescope(HST)slitless grism spectroscopy,we evaluate the importance of TP-AGB stars in the SEDs of 177 PSB galaxies by fitting simple stellar populations with different levels of TP-AGB contributions.The grism spectra,despite their low resolution of R~100,enable the detection of molecular features specific to TP-AGB stars and thus improve constraints on their contribution.A majority(~70%)of galaxies in the PSB sample show features indicative of TPAGB stars,while the remainder does not and they are well fit by Bruzual&Charlot TP-AGB light models.Stacked spectra of sources classified to be the best fit by TP-AGB heavy/mild models reveal strong detections of NIR molecular features associated with TP-AGB stars.Additionally,we observe a tentative trend with redshift where more TP-AGB heavy galaxies are observed in the higher redshift PSB galaxy population.Finally,neglecting the contribution of TP-AGB stars can yield an over-prediction of stellar masses measured in the K-band ranging from 0.13-0.23 dex.

Challenges of Groundwater Development and Supply in the Niger Delta, Nigeria

Some problems of groundwater development in the Niger Delta ranging from negligence to geological peculiarities are examined to highlight the importance and application of geologic knowledge and research for decision making and averting failure in groundwater development for provisional use. Although the geology and hydrogeologic properties of the aquifer system in the Niger Delta immensely favors groundwater development, there are several recorded cases of failed groundwater development projects poor water quality, dry boreholes and boreholes with surprisingly low yield which could have been avoided. This is due to the perception that since groundwater is prolific, geologic and locational peculiarities can be ignored. This research has highlighted the importance of the knowledge of the hydrogeology of the different geologic units as significant factor in the success of groundwater projects through the correlation of past research of geologic units and groundwater potentials, quality and challenges with the present projects implemented in some of the locations. Cases where groundwater projects are executed with wrong exploration options and without consideration of the peculiarity of the geologic units of the project area, including engagement of incompetent contractors, and negligence to the existing regulatory framework for groundwater development in Nigeria are presented. In order to promote sustainable groundwater development and management in the Niger Delta, this research highlights and recommends the pragmatic use of geologic information including various technical, institutional, regulatory and management measures which have the capacity to avert challenges in groundwater development for provisional use.

Effects of Soil Aeration on Sweet Potato Yield and Its Physiological Mechanism

The effects of soil aeration on physiological characters and root tuber yield of Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam. CV Lushu7 and Xushu18 were studied. The results showed that soil aeration improvement could increase ATP content and ATPase activity in functional leaves and root tubers and ABA content in root tubers. It also accelerated the transportation of 14C-photosynthate from leaves to root tubers and enhanced dry matter distribution in root tubers and thus root tuber yield was significantly raised. The role of ATP, ATPase and ABA in accelerating the transportation of 14C-photosynthate was discussed based on the changes of soluble carbonhydrate content in sweet potato plant.

LAMOST/HRS spectroscopic analysis of two new Li-rich giants

Two Li-rich candidates,TYC 1338-1410-1 and TYC 2825-596-1,were observed by the new high-resolution echelle spectrograph,LAMOST/HRS.Based on their high-resolution and high-signal-tonoise ratio(SNR)spectra,we derived stellar parameters and abundances of 14 important elements for the two candidates.The stellar parameters and lithium abundances indicate that they are Li-rich K-type giants,and having A(Li)NLTE and 2.91 dex,respectively.Our analysis suggests that TYC 1338-1410-1 is probably a red giant branch(RGB)star at the bump stage,while TYC 2825-596-1 is most likely to be a core helium-burning red clump(RC)star.The line profiles of both spectra indicate that the two Li-rich giants are slow rotators and do not show infrared(IR)excess.We conclude that engulfment is not the lithium enrichment mechanism for either star.The enriched lithium of TYC 1338-1410-1 could be created via the Cameron-Fowler mechanism,while the lithium excess in TYC 2825-596-1 could be associated with either non-canonical mixing processes or He-flash.

A search for strongly Mg-enhanced stars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Strongly Mg-enhanced stars with [Mg/Fe] 〉 1.0 show peculiar abundance patterns and hence are of great interest for our understanding of stellar formation and chemical evolution of the Galaxy. A systematic search for strongly Mg-enhanced stars based on low-resolution （R≈2000） spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey （SDSS） is carried out by finding the synthetic spectrum that best matches the observed one in the region of Mg I b lines around λ5170 ,A via a profile matching method. The advantage of our method is that fitting parameters are refined by reproducing the [Mg/Fe] ratios of 47 stars from the very precise high-resolution spectroscopic （HRS） analysis by Nissen ＆ Schuster; and these parameters are crucial to the precision and validity of the derived Mg abundances. As a further check of our method, Mg abun- dances are estimated with our method for member stars in four Galactic globular clus- ters （M92, M 13, M3, M71） which cover the same metallicity range as our sample, and the results are in good agreement with those of HRS analysis in the literature. The val- idation of our method is also demonstrated by the agreement of [Mg/Fe] between our values and those of HRS analysis by Aoki et al. Finally, 33 candidates of strongly Mg- enhanced stars with [Mg/Fe]〉 1.0 are selected from 14 850 F and G stars. Follow-up observations will be carried out on these candidates with high-resolution spectroscopy by large telescopes in the near future, so as to check our selection procedure and to perform a precise and detailed abundance analysis and to explore the origins of these stars.

Study of the puzzling abundance pattern of the neutron-capture elements in LMC star J053253.51–695915.1

Object J053253.51–695915.1(J053253)in the Large Magellanic Cloud(LMC)is reported as a young stellar object(YSO).Its chemical abundances reflect the initial composition of the gas cloud in which the star formed.However,the discovery that this star shows the enhancement of the neutron(n)-capture elements and the higher ratio of the heavier n-capture elements relative to the lighter n-capture elements is puzzling.Using an abundance decomposed method,we explore the astrophysical origins of the n-capture elements in this star.We find that the abundance characteristic of the higher ratio of the heavier n-capture elements to the lighter n-capture elements can be explained by the pollution of the r-process event and the contamination of the s-process material.

The double helium-white dwarf channel for the formation of AM CVn binaries

Most close double helium white dwarfs will merge within a Hubble time due to orbital decay by gravitational wave radiation.However,a significant fraction with low mass ratios will survive for a long time as a consequence of stable mass transfer.Such stable mass transfer between two helium white dwarfs（He WDs） provides one channel for the production of AM CVn binary stars.In previous calculations of double He WD progenitors,the accreting He WD was treated as a point mass.We have computed the evolution of 16 double He WD models in order to investigate the consequences of treating the evolution of both components in detail.We find that the boundary between binaries having stable and unstable mass transfer is slightly modified by this approach.By comparing with observed periods and mass ratios,we redetermine masses of eight known AM CVn stars by our double He WDs channel,i.e.HM Cnc,AM CVn,V406 Hya,J0926,J1240,GP Com,Gaia14 aae and V396 Hya.We propose that central spikes in the triple-peaked emission spectra of J1240,GP Com and V396 Hya and the surface abundance ratios of N/C/O in GP Com can be explained by the stable double He WD channel.The mass estimates derived from our calculations are used to discuss the predicted gravitational wave signal in the context of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna（LISA） project.

鄂霍次克海北部海岸基岩和积雪中石油产品溢油运移的地球化学过程(英文)

In selecting methods of liquidation of natural pollution resulted from oil products (OP) in the cold regions, such as in the north coast of the Sea of Okhotsk, it is necessary to take into consideration the peculiarities of the OP and the object polluted in cold and warm periods. Generally, in cold time snow cover with thickness of 1.0m or more presents, so the OP is partly absorbed by the silt in the snow, then the viscosity of snow is strengthened due to the aggregate of the hard hydrocarbon components (HСС) with negative temperature in the OP. The HCC is the most active when the molecular of carbon atom is less than 10, and could not be harden at the temperature below (-30 ℃). However, in summer time the spilled HCC is partly evaporated, but the tar and asphalt enrich the OP there. In the mountainous regions at the deep deposition of underground water, in summer the OP might be brought by the gas stream in the massifs of the fracture rocks upper on the slope. According to the peculiarities, the methods of fighting the nature, polluted by the OP in the regions of the Sub-Arctic; are explained, and they are representative in the north coast of the Sea of Okhotsk.

Radiative Lifetimes of Doubly Ionized Terbium

Radiative lifetimes of two short-lived levels （i.e. 4f^8 （TF6）6p^1/2 （6, 1/2）11/2,13/2） in Tb Ⅲ are measured by time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence （LIE） technique with a two-step excitation process. Free Tb Ⅲ ions are produced in a laser-induced plasma. Lifetime values are evaluated with a deconvolution procedure of the timeresolved fluorescence signal with the temporal shape of second-step excitation pulse （about 1 ns）. The lifetimes of the 4f^8 （^7F6）6p^1/2 （6, 1/2）11/2 and 4f^8（^7F6）6p^1/2 （6, 1/2）13/2 levels are determined to be 1.9 （2） and 2.0 （2）ns, respectively.

CH_3NH_3 Formed by Electron Injection at Heterojunction Inducing Peculiar Properties of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 Material

The effect of formed CH_3NH_3 at the heterojunction on properties of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 material is investigated based on experiment and theoretical calculation. Our calculation results show that the giant dielectric constant, anomalous hysteresis and long-lasting polarization for CH_3NH_3PbI_3 originate from the formed CH_3NH_3 at the heterojunction. It is found that the induced weak EPS by the reorientation of CH_3NH_3 sub-group along the built-in electric field enables us to effectively increase the ordering of entire lead-halide framework. In addition, the heterojunction has an advantage of channel separation between carrier transport and electron diffusion. These properties of the heterojunction are the main origin of the high efficiency of CH_3NH_3PbI_3 solar cells.

HIV/AIDS selective infectivity-report of two peculiar cases

We report two peculiar cases that were observed in two communities of Anambra State,South East Nigeria.The first case was a woman of 44 with a history of blood transfusion from a donor of questionable HIV status.A pint of blood was transfused in a private Hospital on the 15th January. 2000.She has had no form of antiviral therapy until 22nd April.2008 when she came to the hospital for routine medical check up.Her HIV result came out confirmed positive while that of her husband came out negative.She has had active sexual life with her husband in the previous eight years as they have had some difficulties in getting their desired extra two children having earlier gotten a boy and a girl.The second case involves a family of six.A couple with four children of ages about 6 months,2 years,3 years and 5 years.The youngest,a female presented with fever and multiple lymphadenopathy.She tested HIV positive and so was her mother and her second sibling.But her father and two other siblings remained negative at post three and six months intervals from their very first test date with us.These reported cases appear to go contrary to earher formed opinion on HIV transmission.We support the opinion on a naturally,occurring substance,APOBEC3G which possibly confers permanent immunity against the HIV virus.We recommend clinical trials of the characterized APOBEC3G as a vaccine for non HIV infected persons of all ages and to people living with HIV/AIDS as a therapeutic drug.
