A hydrothermal doublet system was drilled in a fault-related granitic reservoir Cornwall. It targets the Porthtowan Fault Zone (PTF), which transects Carnmenellis granite, one of onshore plutons Cornubian Batholith SW England. At 5058 m depth (TVD, 5275 MD) up to 190 °C were reached dedicated production well. The injection well is aligned vertically above and reaches 2393 MD. As part design pro...

There is increased usage of flexible electronics recently in various applications such as wearable devices, displays and sensors. Studies on the durability conductive metal traces under cyclic mechanical loading crucial since these conductors will be subjected to repeated bending. In this work, electrical behavior silver printed was tested using three-point bend test. The samples were polymer t...

PURPOSE We reported that the expression of integrin-linked kinase (ILK) is up-regulated in ovarian carcinomas and that ovarian cancer cells have high expression of ILK. In this study, we have examined the expression of cell-free 59 kDa immunoreactive (ir)ILK in the serum and peritoneal fluid (PTF) of patients with ovarian cancer and evaluated its potential as a serum biomarker for early-stage s...

UNLABELLED Although a parametric image of myocardial blood flow (MBF) can be obtained from H(2)(15)O PET using factor and cluster analysis, this approach is limited when factor analysis fails to extract each cardiac component. In this study, a linear least-squares (LLS) method for estimating MBF and generating a MBF parametric image was developed to overcome this limitation. The computer simula...

Abstract The radius and surface composition of an exploding massive star, as well the explosion energy per unit mass, can be measured using early ultraviolet (UV) observations core-collapse supernovae (CC SNe). We present results from a simultaneous Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) search for UV emission SNe. analyze five CC SNe which we obtained near-UV (NUV) m...

Context. Supernova (SN) 1987A was a peculiar hydrogen-rich event with a long-rising (∼ 84 d) light curve, stemming from the explosion of a compact blue supergiant star. Only a few similar events have been presented in the literature in recent decades. Aims. We present new data for a sample of six long-rising Type II SNe (SNe II), three of which were discovered and observed by the Palomar Transi...
