We have studied how observables of the neutrino mixing matrix can link up with the ones in the quark sector. The deviation from the bi-maximal flavor mixing is parameterized using a 3 × 3 unitary matrix. The neutrino mixings are investigated supposing this unitary matrix to be hierarchical like the quark mixing matrix. We obtain the remarkable prediction |Ue3| ≥ 0.03 from the experimentally all...

Owing to its intrinsic characteristics, spatiotemporally encoded (SPEN) imaging is less sensitive to adverse effects due to field inhomogeneity in comparison with echo planar imaging, a feature highly desired for functional, diffusion, and real-time MRI. However, the quality of images obtained with SPEN MRI is still degraded by geometric distortions when field inhomogeneity exists. In this stud...

This paper presents a new method called vespiary regular hexagonal (VRH) model in order to calculate parasitic capacitance between conductor wire filaments of one turn of coil (OTC) and between conductor wire filaments and liner and also total capacitance of one turn of the helix magneto flux cumulative generator (MCG) coil include single-layer conductor wire filaments in form of rectangular cr...

A simple and practicable evaporation-induced self-assembly (EISA) method is introduced for the first time to prepare nanosized solid electrolyte Li1.4Al0.4Ti1.6(PO4)3 (LATP) for all-solid-state lithium-ion batteries. A pure Na+ super ion conductor (NASICON) phase is confirmed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, and its primary particle size is down to 70 nm by optimizing evaporation rate of th...

An interweaving-conductor metamaterial (ICM) is a metamaterial composed of multiple, interlocking, conducting networks. It exhibits unusual optical properties in the low-frequency linear-dispersion regime. In particular, two-network ICM supports only one, non-dispersive mode in the low frequency range, and is best described as an effective medium supporting a scalar wave in full three dimension...

In this paper, the electromagnetic field of a horizontal electric dipole buried in a four-layered region is treated in detail. The region of interest consists of a perfect conductor, coated with the twolayered dielectrics under the air. Because of existing multi-reflections, the final representations of the six field components are much more complex. It is noted that the trapped surface wave an...

In this work, approximate formulas are presented for computing the magnetic field intensity near electric power transmission lines. Original expressions are given for single circuit lines of any type of arrangement and double circuit lines in both super-bundle and low-reactance conductor phasing. These expressions can be used for assessing directly the Right-of-Way width of power lines related ...
