CD design, using a spherical acrylic vessel with a diameter of 35.4 m to contain the LS and a stainless steel structure to support the acrylic vessel and PMTs, was chosen and optimized. The acrylic vessel and the stainless steel structure will be immersed in pure water to shield the radioactive background and bear great buoyancy. The challenging requirements of the acrylic sphere have been achieved, such as a low intrinsic radioactivity and high transmittance of the manufactured acrylic panels, the tensile and compressive acrylic node design with embedded stainless steel pad, and one-time polymerization for multiple bonding lines. Moreover, several technical challenges of the stainless steel structure have been solved: the production of low radioactivity stainless steel material, the deformation and precision control during production and assembly, and the usage of high-strength stainless steel rivet bolt and of high friction efficient linkage plate. Finally, the design of the ancillary equipment such as the LS filling, overflowing, and circulating system was done.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":792,"journal":{"name":"The European Physical Journal Plus","volume":"139 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1140/epjp/s13360-024-05830-8.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142889701","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite ongoing efforts, there is no definitive cure for color blindness; however, various color filter-based devices such as tinted glasses and contact lenses have been introduced to assist CVD people. Recently, plasmonic nanostructures have attracted significant attention for CVD management by replacing chemical dyes due to their outstanding properties and the adjustability of plasmonic resonances. This study reviews the different wearables utilized in CVD management, such as eyeglasses and contact lenses, with a special emphasis on the innovative plasmonic eye wearables that have emerged in recent advances.

Additional confinement of the electron is due to an intrinsic electric confining potential of the polar disc modelled by any of the forms: infinite polar square well (IPSW), parabolic potential (PP) and shifted parabolic potential (SPP). As is well known, the parallel applied magnetic field lifts the double degeneracy of the non-zero azimuthal quantum number <i>m</i> electronic states. This Zeeman splitting is such that the <span>(m&gt;0)</span>electron energy sub-bands increase monotonically with an increase of the magnetic field, while the <span>(m&lt;0)</span>states initially decrease as the magnetic field is increased. Now, in systems with cylindrical symmetry, the allowed optical transitions are those between the electron’s states whose azimuthal quantum numbers differ by unity. The conical disclination is characterized by a kink parameter which is <span>(kappa &lt;1)</span> for a segment cut off from the disc and <span>(kappa &gt;1)</span> for a segment introduced into the polar disc. An increase of <span>(|kappa |)</span> leads to a decrease of transition energies, which in turn gives rise to an increase of the corresponding transition rates of optical transitions. Thus, peaks of transition rates get red shifted as the kink parameter increases. Additionally, the magnitude of the transition rates increases with the increasing value of the kink parameter. The magnetic field enhances transition energies involving states with angular momentum in one direction (here, those with positive angular momentum number <i>m</i>), while it decreases those involving states with angular momentum in the opposite direction (negative <i>m</i> states). It has also been found that parallel magnetic field blue shifts peaks of rates of transitions involving the <span>(m&gt;0)</span> states, while it red shifts peaks of those involving the <span>(m&lt;0)</span> states. The parabolic potential enhances transition energies, while the shifted parabolic potential reduces the transition energies. Consequently, the parabolic potential blue shifts peaks of transition rates, while the shifted parabolic potential red shifts the peaks. The results presented here suggest that a conical disclination and the overall confinement potential can be employed to tune and modulate the optical transition rates of a quantum disc.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":792,"journal":{"name":"The European Physical Journal Plus","volume":"139 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1140/epjp/s13360-024-05909-2.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142880482","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The model integrates several pivotal ecological elements, including an additive Allee effect dictating prey growth, a ratio-dependent functional response characterizing predator–prey interactions, the provision of refuge for intermediate predators, and the incorporation of a Michaelis–Menten-type harvesting mechanism of the top predators. Moreover, we incorporate gestation and harvesting delays as novel factors to scrutinize their impact on the overall dynamics of the food web system. Through an extensive analysis of the delayed and non-delayed models, our investigation rigorously explores the equilibrium points, stability attributes, and bifurcations structures. In the absence of time delay, our findings underscore the profound influence wielded by factors such as refuge availability, Allee effect, harvesting, and the availability of environmental resources in dictating the survival prospects of the involved species. Furthermore, our exploratory analysis uncovers a rich tapestry of intricate dynamics, encompassing chaotic behavior, periodic oscillations and, multistability. These revelations underscore the profound complexity inherent in the ecosystem, particularly accentuated by the temporal delays involved in gestation and harvesting processes. The nuanced interplay between these temporal delays and ecological parameters contributes to the emergence of diverse and complex dynamics, elucidating the intricate nature of the ecological systems.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":792,"journal":{"name":"The European Physical Journal Plus","volume":"139 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142870372","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The synthesis of nanocomposite was carried out by reducing silver nitrate with <i>Salvia hispanica</i> extra, and zinc nitrate was mixed to produce the nanocomposite. An extensive examination was carried out on the physical and biological characteristics of the synthesized nanocomposite using several approaches. The EDX analysis confirmed the purity of the synthesized sample via the presence of elements Ag, Zn, and O only in the nanocomposite. The crystal structure of nanocomposite with hexagonal phase and average crystallite size of 56.8 nm was confirmed by X-ray diffraction. The formation of fibrous AgO:ZnO nanoparticles with an average diameter of 1.021 ± 0.6 μm was indicated by field-emission scanning electron microscopy examination. The optical property investigation revealed that the nanocomposite had a wide absorption band with an absorption peak at 425 nm. The observed phenomenon was attributable to the occurrence of electronic transitions within the material. The direct bandgap energy of 2.90 eV and the Urbach energy of 0.456 eV for the nanocomposite demonstrated the presence of defect states in the bandgap region. The measured values of the conduction band edge (<i>E</i>_CB) and valence band edge (<i>E</i>_VB) additionally revealed the material’s electronic structure. The biological potential of AgO:ZnO nanocomposite was evaluated by the agar well diffusion technique against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria and a fungus. The extensive investigation of the AgO:ZnO nanocomposite’s characteristics has shown its potential for use in a wide range of photonic, optoelectronic, and biological applications.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":792,"journal":{"name":"The European Physical Journal Plus","volume":"139 12","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142859496","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The original data set produced by the master equation was trained to forecast the EET evolution. An agreement between our prediction and the theoretical deduction with an accuracy of over 99.26% is found, showing the validity of the proposed MRNN. A time-segment polynomial fitting multiplied by a unit step function results in a loss rate of the order of <span>(10^{-5})</span>, showing a striking consistence with analytical formulations for the photosynthetic EET.
