Prussian blue is a historical pigment synthesized for the first time at beginning of 18th century. Here we demonstrate that exhibits surprising adsorption properties gaseous ammonia. shows 12.5 mmol/g ammonia capacity 0.1 MPa, whereas standard adsorbents show only 5.08-11.3 mmol/g. Dense was also observed trace contamination in atmosphere. Results higher by analogues with optimization chemical composition. The respective capacities cobalt hexacyanocobaltate (CoHCC) and copper...
Variations in molecular electronic structures related to conformational change are exceedingly attractive because of their key role the understanding and development functional processes electronics biology. We observed, for first time, novel phase switching a photoactive isomeric molecule, N-(2-mercaptoethyl)-4-phenylazobenzamide (Azo molecule) at single-molecule level, which exhibits distinctive conductive characteristic under scanning tunneling microscope (STM) measurement. In comparison...
Redox-controllable molecular switches composed of two interlocking rings are incorporated here into Langmuir films starting from different redox states. The morphologies the resulting monolayers and their current–voltage characteristics then investigated. These considered to be ideal candidates for fabrication molecule-based electronic devices.
Conductance was measured for the single molecules with S/Se anchoring on a Au surface using point contact method scanning tunneling microscopy that enables us to selectively perform repeated analysis of chosen target molecule. Apparent conductance changes observed in sequential measurements suggest existence bond fluctuation among adsorption sites.
The appearance of ionospheric perturbations in possible association with earthquakes (EQs) seems to be confirmed on the basis both event and statistical studies, but generation mechanism those seismo-ionospheric is not well understood, though a few hypotheses have been proposed. Two are promising candidates; one so-called chemical channel, which radon emanation results change atmospheric conductivity, then electric field, leading redistribution plasma, other excitation oscillations due some...
To evaluate Sylvian fissure development by assessing angles in fetuses with malformation of cortical (MCD).This was a retrospective study 22 MCD. Cases stored three-dimensional (3D) brain volume acquired at 18 + 0 to 30 6 weeks gestation an ultrasound-based research clinic between January 2010 and December 2017 were identified through database. Of the fetuses, seven had extracranial abnormality, such as cardiac, renal, gastrointestinal and/or digital anomalies, five minor abnormality...
The main concern of this paper is to study large-time behavior solutions an ideal polytropic model compressible viscous gases in one-dimensional half-space. We consider outflow problem and obtain a convergence rate toward corresponding stationary solution. Here the existence solution proved under smallness condition on boundary data with aid center manifold theory. also show time asymptotic stability assumptions initial perturbation Sobolev space, by employing energy method. Moreover,...

Two ordered phases observed for the mercaptomethylthiophene derivatives 1:...
Abstract Assembled systems consisting of an azobenzene moiety as the photofunctional component and valyl units network backbone are investigated. The molecular ordering these assemblies is examined by spectroscopy theoretical calculations. number greatly influences order in organized systems. Only N ‐( L ‐valyl‐ ‐valyl)azobenzene‐4‐carboxamide ( 3 ) forms a complete β‐sheet structure this artificial assembly. Upon photoirradiation, moieties isomerize completely, revealing reversibility...
We study the large-time behavior of solutions to an ideal polytropic model compressible viscous gases in one-dimensional half space. consider inflow problem where gas enter into region through boundary, and we show that a corresponding stationary solution is time-asymptotically stable both subsonic transonic cases. The proof asymptotic stability based on priori estimates perturbation from solution, which are derived by standard energy method, provided boundary strength initial certain...
Ras is essential for the transition from early B cell precursors to pro-B stage, and considered be involved in signal cascade mediated by pre-B antigen receptors. To examine role of p21(ras) late stage differentiation, we established transgenic mice (TG) expressing a dominant-inhibitory mutant Ha-ras (Asn-17 Ha-ras) lineage cells at high levels after precursor stage. Expression p21(Asn-17) (Ha-ras) was associated with prominent reduction number cells, but had little effect on proliferation...
As an adsorbent of gaseous ammonia, cobalt hexacyanocobaltate (CoII3[CoIII(CN)6]2) was proved to have good sorption even at high temperatures, with thermal recyclability in sorption-desorption cycles. The maximum capacities evaluated a dual-site Langmuir model are 25.2, 18.6, 8.6, and 2.1 mmol g-1 20, 100, 150, 250 °C, respectively.

We present the discovery observations of optical counterpart gamma-ray burst GRB 990712 taken 4.16 hr after outburst and discuss its light curve observed in V, R, I bands during first ~35 days outburst. The curves were fitted with a power-law decay for transient (OT), plus an additional component that was treated two different ways. First, assumed to be underlying galaxy constant brightness. resulting slope is 0.97, magnitudes are V = 22.3 ± 0.05, R 21.75 21.35 0.05. Second, supernova...
The present paper concerns a large-time behavior of motion isentropic and compressible viscous fluid in two- or three-dimensional half space. We obtain convergence rate solution toward planar stationary wave for an outflow problem, where flows out through boundary. For supersonic flow at spatial infinity, we algebraic exponential decay provided that initial perturbation decays, with respect to normal direction, the rate, respectively. is also obtained transonic flow. Owing degenerate...
One major candidate of lithosphere-atmosphere-ionosphere (LAI) coupling mechanism is through atmospheric oscillations triggered near Earth's surface due to some pre-earthquake (EQ) effect, and this channel has been extensively proved by using meteorological disturbances much more easily treated than pre-EQ effects (Korepanov et al., 2009). In the present paper challengingly studied, for first time, phenomena, we take a rather strong EQ named Niigata-chuetsu on 23 October, 2004 (with...
Primary effusion lymphoma (PEL) is a newly described high-grade B cell developing in association with human herpes virus type 8 (HHV-8) immunodeficiency (HIV)-infecting individuals. Common variable (CVID) primary disease characterized by reduced serum immunoglobulin and heterogeneous clinical features. The risk of cancer CVID patients increased. Here, we describe PEL that developed the pleural pericardial cavities an HIV-negative HHV-8-negative patient CVID.
