Closely Spaced MEG Source Localization and Functional Connectivity Analysis Using a New Prewhitening Invariance of Noise Space Algorithm by Junpeng Zhang, Yuan Cui, Lihua Deng, Ling He, Junran Zhang, Jing Zhang, Qun Zhou, Qi Liu, Zhiguo Zhang

“…Lastly, source connectivity between closely spaced sources can be satisfactorily constructed from source time courses estimated by PW-INN but not from results of other conventional methods. Therefore, the proposed PW-INN method is a promising MEG source analysis to provide a high spatial-temporal characterization of cortical activity and connectivity, which is crucial for basic and clinical research of neural plasticity.…”

Shock Breakouts from Compact Circumstellar Medium Surrounding Core-collapse Supernova Progenitors May Contribute Significantly to the Observed ≳10 TeV Neutrino Background by Eli Waxman, Tal Wasserman, Eran O. Ofek, Avishay Gal-Yam

“…SNe producing  >1 neutrino event in a 1 km ^2 detector are expected at a rate of  ≲0.1 yr ^−1 . A quantitative theory describing the evolution of the electromagnetic spectrum during a breakout, as the radiation-mediated shock is transformed into a collisionless one, is required to enable (i) using data from upcoming surveys that will systematically detect large numbers of young,  <1 day old SNe to determine the preexplosion mass-loss history of the SN progenitor population, and (ii) a quantitative determination of the neutrino luminosity and spectrum.…”

Research of the Geometric Characteristic of Undercutting and Limit Normal Point in Gear Geometry by Chen Ningxin

“…The undercutting phenomena and the limit normal point are two important concepts in gearing theory,design and manufacturing.Based on the different opinions about them in the current research of limit normal point and the geometry and movement characteristics of undercutting neighborhood research is not sufficient,the study on undercutting and limit normal point of the following different gears is carried out by using TCA technology,they include spur and helical involute gears,straight bevel gear,cylindrical worm-gears including I type,K type and C type worm-gear,face-milled and face-hobbed spiral bevel and hypoid gear,as well as single-enveloping and double-enveloping globoidal worm-gear.The study results show that,the sliding velocity on the undercutting line of the generated surface is not equal to zero as the traditional result but moves along the tangent of the undercutting line for most gears except for spur involute and straight bevel gears,the limit normal point is the tangent point of the undercutting line and contact boundary line indeed.…”
