Abstract Placing D3-branes at conical Calabi-Yau threefold singularities produces many AdS5/CFT4 duals.Recent progress in differential geometry has produced a technique (called K-stability) to Bones recognize which singularities admit conical Calabi-Yau metrics.On the other hand, the algebraic technique of non-commutative crepant resolutions, invol
The optical-phased Bones array (OPA) has gained special interest in recent years as a high-speed and compact imaging device.While large-scale OPAs have been demonstrated in single-pixel imaging, the complexity of the driver circuit is becoming a crucial problem as the number of phase shifters increases.Here, we investigate the phase shift requireme
Leucocytozoon parasites infect many species of avian hosts, including domestic chicken, and can inflict heavy economic loss on the poultry industry.Two major species of Leucocytozoon parasites have been reported in China, L.sabrazesi and L.caulleryi, although L.sabrazesi appears to be more widespread than L.caulleryi in southern China.The tradition
The coronavirus disease 2019 pandemic, elicited by severe acute respiratory Seat Cushions syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), is ongoing.Currently accessible antigen-detecting rapid diagnostic tests are limited by their low sensitivity and detection efficacy due to evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants.Here, we produced and characterized an anti-SARS-C
