The existing quantum mechanical interpretation schemes are puzzling. The confusing theory is unconvincing, and needs to be amended and completed. The successful interpretation program of quantum mechanics of local-realism and determinism is undoubtedly the most attractive. Preparing the interpretation program deserves to be chosen as a research goal. It is a very good premise to believe that an object particle consists of light-knot of monochromatic waves. According to this premise, the erroneous recognition about “superposition principle, wave-particle duality and uncertainty principle” can be corrected. Under this premise, above research goal is achieved by establishing, applying quantum mechanics inverse measurement theory, adhering to the principle that there must be a complete empirical chain in the derivation process of experimental conclusion, and using the side effect caused by accompanying-light to explain the diffraction experiment of object particles. Electron secondarily diffraction and other experiments directly prove that there is the measurement (observation) which may not destroy quantum coherence. The diffraction experiments of all kinds of particles show that the Keeping and playing of the coherence of moving particles in the vacuum have nothing to do with their previous experience. These are the existing experiments, to be found, that support the theory of quantum inverse measurements. The verification experiment of quantum inverse measurement is designed. The absolute superiorities of quantum inverse measurement and the new view of measurement of quantum mechanics are listed. These superiorities are that: it has the characteristics of local-realism and determinism;it is not contrary to common sense and there is no confusing place;it can predict several phenomena that cannot be predicted by other theories. A solid theoretical foundation has been laid for “correctly understanding the microscopic world” and establishment of local realism quantum mechanics.展开更多

The state of Xia, which originated from Yu, was entitled "Xia Hou"; its king was hence called "Xia Hou Di" (Emperor of Xia Hou), e.g."Xia Hou Di Qi". The Xia people, together with the Yin (Shang) people, and the Zhou people, were the so-called "people of San Dai" (Three Dynasties). As mentioned in "Lunyu, Bayi", they founded the states, with the Xia people being associated with the pine, the Yin people with the cypress, and the Zhou people with the chestnut.展开更多

The optimized method was used to expand the CINK cells from 12 patients with various malignant tumors, the proportions of CD3 + and CD56 + cells in the expanded cells were determined by flow cytometry, and the cytotoxicity of the CINK cells from patients was detected by MTT assay in comparison with those of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells or anti-CDC3 antibody-activated killer (CD3AK) cells. It was found that the expansion of CINK cells could be obtained when these cells were activated with 500 ng/ml of monoclonal anti-CD3 antibody and 100?U/ml of IL-2. The highest degree of cell proliferation (51.3 folds) could be attained in the presence of PHA after 14?d cultivation of cells, and the expanded cell populations included CD3 - CD56 + NK cells (49.8%±7.2%) and CD3 + CD56 + T cells (14.7%±3.9%) could lyse 83.7% of K562 cells and 55.8% of Raji cells at a 10∶1 of effector/target ratio. Also the CINK cells of clinical scale could be expanded from tumor patients by using the optimized method with a similar expansion efficiency and cytotoxicity. These cells showed a higher cytotoxic activities against target cell lines (K562 and Raji cell lines) than those of CIK and CD3AK cells. This improved method has several advantages over other methods, such as the easy manipulation, low costs and the production of functionally active NK cells on a clinical scale from cancer patients without the need for special equipments. This might facilitate the realization of further protocol for evaluating the clinical effects of NK cells in autologous immunotherapies of tumor patients.展开更多

Haplotype diversity and the mean pairwise differences were 0.9903±0.0013 and 5.7785 in HVS-I, and 0.9777±0.0013 and 3.5819 in HVS-II, respectively. By analyzing the hypervariable domain from nucleotide 1,6180 to 1,6193 in HVS-I, we defined some new types of sequence variations. We also compared the relationship between Tu population and other populations using mtDNA HVS-I sequences. According to Rst genetic distances, the phylogenetic tree showed that the Tu population, the Xi＇an Han population, the Chinese Korean, and the Mongol ethnic group were in a clade. This indicated a close genetic relationship between them. There were far relations between the Tu population and other Chinese southern Han populations, Siberian, European, African, and other foreign populations. The results suggest that Tu population has a multi-origin and has also merged with other local populations.展开更多

By observing and collecting times of minimum light, we constructed the O-C curves for the two systems. The long-time upward and downward parabolas shown in these diagrams are considered to be the result of the combination of mass transfer and angular momentum loss. The secular orbital period change rates are d P/dt = 4.74(±0.12) ×10-7 d yr-1 and d P/dt =-2.33(±0.01) × 10-6 d yr-1, respectively. There are also cyclic variations in their O-C curves which might be caused by the light-travel time effect(LTTE). A circumbinary star may exist in the TZ Eri system with a mass of at least 1.34 M⊙, while there are possibly two celestial bodies that almost follow a 2 : 1 resonance orbit around the TU Her binary pair. Their masses are at least 2.43 M⊙and 1.27 M⊙.展开更多
