Vibration-to-vibration energy transfer probabilities for $HF(v=n)+H_2(v=0){\to}HF(v=n-1)+H_2(v=1)$ and $DF(v=n)+D_2(v=0){\to}DF(v=n-1)+D_2(v=1)$ including both the vibration-to-vibration and translation (V-V, T) and vibration-to-vibration and rotation (V-V, R) energy transfer paths have been calculated semiclassically using a simplified collision model and Morse-type intermolecular interaction potential. The calculated results are in reasonably good agreement with those obtained by experimental studies. They also show that the transition processes for $HF(v=1-3)+H_2(v=0){\to}HF(v=0-2)+H_2(v=1)$ and $DF(v=1,\;4)+D_2(v=0){\to}DF(v=0,\;3)+D_2(v=1)$ are strongly dependent on the V-V, T path at low temperature but occur predominantly via the V-V, R path with rising temperature. The vibration-to-vibration energy transfer for $HF(v=4)+H_2(v=0){\to}HF(v=3)+H_2(v=1)$ and $DF(v=2-3)+D_2(v=0){\to}DF(v=1-2)+D_2(v=1)$ occur predominantly via V-V, R path and V-V, T path through whole temperatures, respectively.

This study was conducted to evaluate water treatment characteristics according to vegetated wetland(V) and open water(O) arrangements in free water surface constructed wetland. Three pilot-scale wetlands, V-V, O-V and V-O, were built and operated. $BOD_5$ was a slightly reduced at all the arrangements because the influent concentration was so low as background concentration of constructed wetlands. While T-N and T-P removal efficiency showed higher than 50% for all cases. The O-V arrangement showed the highest removal efficiency: 20% for $BOD_5$, 56% for SS, 59% for T-N and 72% for T-P. Effluent concentration of the O-V were significantly low compared with those from the V-O. O-V arrangement would be beneficial in the light of pollutant removal efficiency as well as construction cost.

Let C[0, $t$] denote the function space of real-valued continuous paths on [0, $t$]. Define $X_n\;:\;C[0,t]{\rightarrow}\mathbb{R}^{n+1}$ and $X_{n+1}\;:\;C[0,t]{\rightarrow}\mathbb{R}^{n+2}$ by $X_n(x)=(x(t_0),x(t_1),{\ldots},x(t_n))$ and $X_{n+1}(x)=(x(t_0),x(t_1),{\ldots},x(t_n),x(t_{n+1}))$, respectively, where $0=t_0 <; t_1 <{\ldots} < t_n < t_{n+1}=t$. In the present paper, using simple formulas for the conditional expectations with the conditioning functions $X_n$ and $X_{n+1}$, we evaluate the $L_p(1{\leq}p{\leq}{\infty})$-analytic conditional Fourier-Feynman transforms and the conditional convolution products of the functions, which have the form $fr((v_1,x),{\ldots},(v_r,x)){\int}_{L_2}_{[0,t]}\exp\{i(v,x)\}d{\sigma}(v)$ for $x{\in}C[0,t]$, where $\{v_1,{\ldots},v_r\}$ is an orthonormal subset of $L_2[0,t]$, $f_r{\in}L_p(\mathbb{R}^r)$, and ${\sigma}$ is the complex Borel measure of bounded variation on $L_2[0,t]$. We then investigate the inverse conditional Fourier-Feynman transforms of the function and prove that the analytic conditional Fourier-Feynman transforms of the conditional convolution products for the functions can be expressed by the products of the analytic conditional Fourier-Feynman transform of each function.

After more than two years of efforts to end the corona pandemic, a gradual recovery is starting in countries with high vaccination rates. Easing public health policies for a full-fledged post-corona era, such as lifting the mandatory use of outdoor mask and quarantine measures in entry have been considered in Korea. However, the continuous emergence of new variants of SARS-CoV-2 and limitations in vaccine efficacy still remain challenging. Fortunately, T cells and memory T cells, which are key components of adaptive immunity appear to contribute substantially in COVID-19 control. SARS-CoV-2 specific CD4⁺/CD8⁺ T cells are induced by natural infection or vaccination, and rapid induction and activation of T cells is mainly associated with viral clearance and attenuated clinical severity. In addition, T cell responses induced by recognition of a wide range of epitopes were minimally affected and conserved against the highly infectious subsets of omicron variants. Polyfunctional SARS-CoV-2 specific T cell memory including stem cell-like memory T cells were also developed in COVID-19 convalescent patients, suggesting long lasting protective T cell immunity. Thus, a robust T-cell immune response appears to serve as a reliable and long-term component of host protection in the context of reduced efficacy of humoral immunity and persistent mutations and/or immune escape.

We consider a system of particles with locations { $X_{i}$ $^{n}$ (t):t$\geq$0,i＝1,…,n} in $R^{d}$ , time-varying weights { $A_{i}$ $^{n}$ (t) : t $\geq$0,i ＝ 1,…,n} and weighted empirical measure processes $V^{n}$ (t)＝1/n$\Sigma$$_{i=1}$$^{n}$ $A_{i}$ $^{n}$ (t)$\delta$ $X_{i}$ $^{n}$ (t), where $\delta$$_{x}$ is the Dirac measure. It is known that there exists the limit of { $V_{n}$ } in the week* topology on M( $R^{d}$ ) under suitable conditions. If { $X_{i}$ $^{n}$ , $A_{i}$ $^{n}$ , $V^{n}$ } satisfies some diffusion equations, applying Ito formula, we prove a central limit type theorem for the empirical process { $V^{n}$ }, i.e., we consider the convergence of the processes η$_{t}$ $^{n}$ ≡ n( $V^{n}$ -V). Besides, we study a characterization of its limit.t.

When voltage or current gets out of the magnetic sensor as it is, we have often faced the problems such as introduction of noise and loss of voltage. In order to reduce these problems, a 2 drain MAGFET operating in the saturation region and fabricated by CMOS process, the system of I/V converter, VCO with operational amplifier, and V/F conversion circuits with Schmitt Trigger are designed and fabricated in one package. The absolute sensitivity of magnetic sensor shows 1.9 V/T and the product sensitivity is $3.2{\times}10^{4}\;V/A{\cdot}T$. The characteristic of V/F conversion is very stabilized and has the value of 190 kHz/T.

Objective: For an accurate dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI analysis, exact baseline T1 mapping is critical. The purpose of this study was to compare the pharmacokinetic parameters of DCE MRI using synthetic MRI with those using fixed baseline T1 values. Materials and Methods: This retrospective study included 102 patients who underwent both DCE and synthetic brain MRI. Two methods were set for the baseline T1: one using the fixed value and the other using the T1 map from synthetic MRI. The volume transfer constant (K^trans), volume of the vascular plasma space (v_p), and the volume of the extravascular extracellular space (v_e) were compared between the two methods. The interclass correlation coefficients and the Bland-Altman method were used to assess the reliability. Results: In normal-appearing frontal white matter (WM), the mean values of K^trans, v_e, and v_p were significantly higher in the fixed value method than in the T1 map method. In the normal-appearing occipital WM, the mean values of v_e and v_p were significantly higher in the fixed value method. In the putamen and head of the caudate nucleus, the mean values of K^trans, v_e, and v_p were significantly lower in the fixed value method. In addition, the T1 map method showed comparable interobserver agreements with the fixed baseline T1 value method. Conclusion: The T1 map method using synthetic MRI may be useful for reflecting individual differences and reliable measurements in clinical applications of DCE MRI.

The Photoluminescence (PL) measurement results of a very good quality GaN sample grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) are reported. The temperature dependences of peak position, emission intensity, and the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of free-exciton (FX) A and B are presented. Our results show the fast thermal quenching of FX transition intensities and predominantly acoustic phonon scattering of emission line broadening. The transition-energy-shift following the Varshni's empirical equation, and by using it to fit the data, E$\_$A1/(T) = 3.4861 eV -6.046 $\times$ 10$\^$-4/T$^2$ (620.3+ T) eV, E$\_$B1/(T) = 3.4928 eV -4.777 $\times$ 10$\^$-4/T$^2$ / (408.2+ T) eV and E$\_$A2/ = 3.4991 eV -4.426 $\times$ 10$\^$-4/ T$^2$ / (430.6+ T) eV for A(n=1), B(n=1), and A(n=2) are obtained respectively.

We fabricated 0.3um gate length inverse-T gate MOS(ITMOS) and conventional lightly doped drain oxide spacer MOS(LDDMOS), and studied electrical characteristics for comparison. Threshold voltage of 0.3um gate length device was 0.58 V for ITMOS and 0.6V for LDDMOS. Measured subthreshold characteristics showed a slope of 85mV/decades for both ITLDD and LDDMOS. Maximum transconductance at V S1ds T=V S1gs T=3.3V was 180mS/mm for ITMOS and 163mS/mm for LDDMOS respectively. GIDL current was observed to be 0.1pA/um for ITOMS and 0.8pA/um for LDDMOS. Substrate current of ITMOS as a function of drain current was found to be reduced by a foactor of 2.5 compared with that of LDDMOS.
