The method combines surface infrared, satellite infrared and ultraviolet channels. The width of the infrared channels is 0.01 cm-1, less than Lorentz half-width at the earth's surface, rather than the present width, because these channels can obtain information about variations in the ozone profile below the profile main-peak. The numerical experiments show that the method has a satisfactory precision in determining total ozone content, just about I percent error, and vertical distribution from the earth to 65 km space. In addition, some semi-analysis functions lor calculating backscattered ultraviolet and a relaxation equation are described in this paper.展开更多

Instead of answering the questions： （i） were the photons in A？ （ii） were the photons in B？ and （iii） were the photons in C？ the proposed experiment measures a degenerate operator answering the questions： （i） were the photons in A？ and （ii） were the photons in B and C together？ A negative answer to the last question does not tell us if photons were present in B or C. On the other hand, a simple variation of the proposal by Li et al. does provide conceptually better evidence for the past of the pre- and post-selected photon, but this evidence will be in agreement with the results of Danan et al.展开更多

We find that when the photon reaches the detector, it only follows one arm of the outer interferometer and leaves no trace in the inner MZI. When it goes through the inner MZI, it cannot reach the detector. Our result obtained from the standard quantum mechanics contradicts the statement based on two-state vector formulism, ＇the photon did not enter the （inner） interferometer, the photon never left the interferometer, but it was there＇. Therefore, the statement and also the overlapping claim are incorrect.展开更多

The conic pore lumen becomes close to a cylindrical channel, resulting in a symmetry I-V transport under positive and negative biases.
