The average kissing number in $${\mathbb{R}^n}$$ is the supremum of degrees contact graphs packings finitely many balls (of any radii) . We provide an upper bound for based on semidefinite programming that improves previous bounds dimensions 3,..., 9. A very simple twice number; 6,..., 9 our new first to improve this bound.

We argue that analysing schemes for metrology solely in terms of the average particle number can obscure particles effectively used informative events. For a states we demonstrate that, both frequentist and Bayesian frameworks, state essentially be decoupled from aspects total distribution associated with any metrological advantage.

Background: Aconitum sinomontanum Nakai (ASN) has been reported to have analgesic effects. In this study an animal model of pharmacopuncture using ASN (100-500 mg/kg) was examined.Methods: Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats (<i>n</i> = 40) were randomly assigned ASN-Low (1 mg/mL, 1.8 mL, ASN-L), ASN-Intermediate (5 ASN-M), ASN-High (10 ASN-H), negative control (0.2 mL normal saline), and posi...
