The role of CO on initial oxidation behavior of α-U(001) surface: A first principles study by Longxian Li, Min Zhu, Yan Li, Yanru Ren, Longfei Pu, Chengxuan Peng

“…A first-principles approach based on density-functional theory has been used to investigate the corrosion resistance of alpha-U in the CO environment. Calculations show that O2 molecules spontaneously dissociate on the uranium surface, and the two O atoms formed by dissociation tend to adsorb on the hole sites and bind to the surface in the form of a U–O bond to emit a large amount of heat. …”

Curdlan sulphate modulates protein synthesis and enhances NF-κB and C/EBP binding activity in HepG2 cells by A. Guzdek, H. Rokita

“…In human hepatoma HepG2 cell line curdlan sulphate enhances basal and interleukin-6-stimulated fibrinogen and antichymotrypsin (ACT) synthesis, slightly increases basal ceruloplasmin production and exerts only minor effects on alpha-1-proteinase inhibitor and transferrin. Curdlan sulphate may, at least in part, affect protein synthesis at a pretranslational level, as the expression of ACT mRNA was found to be increased, whereas intracellular enzyme, manganese superoxide dismutase mRNA level was decreased in the cell culture treated with curdlan sulphate. …”

α-spectrum estimation method for ARMA SαS process based on FLOC by WANG Shou-yong1, ZHU Xiao-bo2

“…The drawback of the parameter estimation method for ARMA SαS process based on fractional lower order moments（FLOM） was analyzed,and based on the conception of fractional lower order covariance（FLOC）,a new parameter estimation method of ARMA SαS process was proposed based on FLOC coefficient.Then,the α-spectrum estimation of ARMA SαS process was presented.By estimating the α-spectrum of ARMA SαS process and the sinusoidal signals that embedded in the α-stable noise,the α-spectrum estimation performances of ARMA SαS process based on FLOM and FLOC were compared in detail.Simulation results show that,for small values of alpha,the performance of the proposed α-spectrum estimation method for ARMA SαS process based on FLOC provides better performance than the method based on FLOM.…”
