In This research, gold nanoparticles were synthesized and functionalized by the antibody of aflatoxins. The quenching of the fluorescence of excitation emission matrices (EEM) of two type of aflatoxins (B1, G1), provoked by the gold nanoparticles, was studied by principal component analysis (PCA) and multivariate curve resolution with alternating least squares (MCR-ALS). These aflatoxins show q...

Ground Motion Definition Earthquake events and realized earthquake ground motions are extremely uncertain even with the present knowledge, and it is not easy to predict forthcoming events precisely both in time and frequency (Anderson and Bertero, 1987; Takewaki et al., 1991; 2013; 2011a; Conte et al., 1992; Ariga et al., 2006; Minami et al., 2013; Çelebi et al., 2014). For example, recently re...

We investigate spectral properties of polaronic excitations within the framework an analog quantum simulator based on inductively coupled superconducting transmon qubits and microwave resonators. This system emulates a lattice model that describes nonlocal coupling itinerant spinless-fermion excitation to dispersionless (Einstein-type) phonons through Peierls breathing-mode interaction mechanis...

Sub-Doppler excitation spectroscopy in a collimated cold supersonic beam of 5% NO seeded in argon has been performed with a spectral resolution down to 10 MHz for four vibronic bands within the perturbed B ?X A system of NO . The rotational temperature of about 15 K achieved by adiabatic cooling allows the separation of closely lying vibronic bands which overlap in absorption spectra ...

Axial distributions of plasma and floating potentials, electron number density and the electron energy distribution function (EEDF) have been measured in the double layer (DL) region of an He discharge constriction. Excitation processes in the constriction region are studied. Using a linearization method for the nonstationary balance equations and choosing appropriate discharge conditions, ...
