The effective delayed neutron fraction is an important reactor kinetics parameter.In flowing liquid-fuel reactors, this differs from the delayed neutron fraction because of the emission of delayed neutrons with a lower energy spectrum than prompt and the delayed neutron precursor (DNP) drift due to the fuel movement.In general, neglecting delayed n
There is a large range of future aerosol emissions scenarios explored in the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs), with plausible pathways spanning a range of possibilities from large global reductions in emissions by 2050 to moderate global increases over the same period.Diversity in emissions across the pathways is particularly large over Key Fob
Abstract Background Canker disease caused by Neoscytalidium dimidiatum is the most serious disease that attacks the pitaya industry.One pathogenic fungus, referred to as ND8, was isolated from the wild-type red-fleshed pitaya (Hylocereus polyrhizus) of Hainan Province.In the early stages of this disease, stems show little spots and a loss of green
Abstract As the global pursuit of renewable energy intensifies and the demand for offshore wind turbines rises, a comprehensive understanding of the coupling response characteristics of offshore monopiles, seabed, and waves in various sea conditions has become increasingly crucial.This paper reports on a wave flume experiment and seeks to contribut
The anti-inflammatory effects of depolymerizing microtubule-targeting agents on leukocytes are known for a long time, but the potential involvement of the vascular endothelium and the underlying mechanistic basis is still largely unclear.Using the recently synthesized depolymerizing microtubule-targeting agent pretubulysin, we investigated the anti
