The Taishan Antineutrino Observatory (TAO or JUNO-TAO) is a satellite detector for the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino (JUNO). JUNO aims at simultaneously probing two main frequencies of three-flavor neutrino oscillations, as well their interference related to mass ordering, distance ~53 km from powerful nuclear reactor complexes in China. Located near Taishan-1 reactor, TAO independently measure...

Thyroid associated ophthalmopathy (TAO), a cardinal clinical pointer to diagnose Graves' disease (GD), is seen less frequently in our country than in the West, but can have sight threatening consequences. Smoking, diabetes, male gender, increasing age and radioactive iodine treatment for thyrotoxicosis are known precipitating factors for TAO. We report four cases of thiazolidinediones (TZD) pre...

We use divisor sums to approximate prime tuples and moments for primes in short intervals. By connecting these results to classical moment problems we are able to prove that, for any η > 0, a positive proportion of consecutive primes are within 4 + η times the average spacing between primes. Authors’ note. This paper was written in 2004, prior to the solution, in [8], of the problem considered ...

A 48-year-old woman presented at our hospital with acute abdominal pain 3 years after being diagnosed with thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO). Computed tomography revealed occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and multiple kidney infarction with thrombus floating in the thoracic aorta connected with the intercostal artery. Despite emergency embolectomy, further thromboembolism eventua...

This paper describes methods used in stabilizing the walking gait of Tao-Pie-Pie, a small humanoid robot given rate feedback from two RC gyroscopes. Tao-Pie-Pie is a fully autonomous small humanoid robot (30cm tall). Although Tao-Pie-Pie uses a minimal set of actuators and sensors, it has proven itself in international competitions, winning honors at the RoboCup and FIRA HuroSot competitions in...
