The paper presents the results of studying a combination of new technological solutions in the processes of natural gas liquefaction and helium extraction.The most common and effective way to ensure cooling capacity in the natural gas liquefaction process is to use a cascade cycle on mixed refrigerant (MFC) as external cooling.The influence of intr
We explain the anomaly of election results between large cities and rural areas in terms of urban scaling in the 1948-2016 US elections and in the 2016 EU referendum of the UK.The scaling curves are all universal and depend on a single parameter only, and one of the parties always shows Pomegranate superlinear scaling and drives the process, while
Chambersite (Mn3B7O13Cl) is both a rare inorganic macromolecular manganese chloroborate and a rare mineral.The chambersite deposit Girls Bag was firstly discovered in Jixian, Tianjin, China, which is the only mineable chambersite deposit in the world.Due to its unique multi-element composition and structure type, it has great application potential
Alighting aphids probe a new host plant by intracellular test punctures for suitability.These induce immediate calcium signals that emanate from the punctured sites and might be the first step in plant recognition of aphid feeding and the subsequent elicitation of plant defence responses.Calcium is also involved in the transmission of non-persisten
Powdery mildew (PM), caused by Podosphaera xanthii, is a major threat to the global cucurbit yield.The molecular mechanisms underlying the PM resistance of pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duch.) are largely unknown.A homolog of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor was previously identified through a DisplayPort to DVI-I transcriptomic
