Neutrinos from the decay of $^{8}\mathrm{B}$ in Sun have been observed Kamiokande-II detector.

A data sample of 1040 days from the Kamiokande II detector, consisting subsamples 450 at electron-energy threshold Ee≥9.3 MeV and 590 Ee≥7.5 MeV, yields a clear directional correlation solar-neutrino-induced electron events with respect to Sun measurement differential distribution.

Searches for possible day-night and semiannual variations of the $^{8}\mathrm{B}$ solar neutrino flux are reported based on 1040 days Kamiokande-II data.

Helical magnetic structures and its responses to external fields in Yb(Ni$_x$Cu$_{1-x}$)$_3$Al$_9$, with a chiral crystal structure of the space group $R32$, have been investigated by resonant X-ray diffraction. It is shown that chirality reflected helicity one relationship, indicating there exists an antisymmetric exchange interaction mediated via conduction electrons. When field applied perpendicular helical axis ($c$ axis), second harmonic peak $(0, 0, 2q)$ develops increasing field. The...
The infrared reflectivities of crystalline forsterite (Mg2SiO4) were measured for the temperature range 295–50 K each crystal axis, between wavenumber 5000 and 100 cm−1. reflection spectra show clear dependence temperature; most bands become more intense, sharper their peak positions shift to higher with decreasing temperature. Reflection fitted dispersion formula damped oscillator model dielectric constants parameters in derived. absorption particle are calculated derived that features good...

We have succeeded in synthesizing a new Yb-based Kondo lattice system, YbNi 3 X 9 ( = Al, Ga). Our study reveals that Al shows typical features of heavy-fermion antiferromagnet with Néel temperature T N 3.4 K. All the properties reflect competition between effect and crystalline electric field (CEF) effect. The moderate state leads to an enhanced Sommerfeld coefficient 100 mJ/(mol·K 2 ), even if ordered antiferromagnetically. On other hand, isostructural gallide Ga is intermediate-valence...
We present a novel structure, called Subspace Forest, designed to provide an efficient approximate nearest neighbor query of subspaces represented as points on Grassmann manifolds. apply this structure action recognition by representing actions spanning sequence thumbnail image tiles extracted from tracked entity. The Forest lifts the concept randomized decision forests classifying vectors subspaces, and employs splitting method that respects underlying manifold geometry. is inherently...

Upward-going muons produced in the surrounding rock by high-energy neutrinos from astronomical objects have been searched for using large underground water Cherenkov detector, Kamiokande.

The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) detected several sharp infrared features around young stars, comets, and evolved stars. These were identified as Mg-rich crystalline silicates of forsterite enstatite by comparison with spectra from laboratory data. However, certain emission bands in the observed cannot be because they appear at slightly shorter wavelengths than peaks spectra, where shapes particles are irregular. To solve this problem, we measured grains various (irregular, plate-like no...
