Computer algorithms for automated detection and analysis of local Ca2+ releases in spontaneously beating cardiac pacemaker cells.

Local Ca2+ Releases (LCRs) are crucial events involved in cardiac pacemaker cell function.However, specific algorithms for automatic LCR detection and Elbow Brace analysis have not been developed in live, spontaneously beating pacemaker cells.In the present study we measured LCRs using a high-speed 2D-camera in spontaneously contracting sinoatrial

Derivation of Vegetation Optical Depth and Water Content in the Source Region of the Yellow River using the FY-3B Microwave Data

This study uses the brightness temperature at the given microwave frequency (18.7 GHz) from the Microwave Radiation Imager (MWRI) on-board the Fengyun-3B (FY-3B) satellite to improve the τ-ω model by considering the radiative contribution from waterbody in the pixels over the wetland of the Yellow River source region, China.In order to re

High-Performance Two-Dimensional InSe Field-Effect Transistors with Novel Sandwiched Ohmic Contact for Sub-10 nm Nodes: a Theoretical Study

Abstract Two-dimensional (2D) InSe-based field effect transistor (FET) has shown remarkable copyright mobility and high on-off ratio in experimental reports.Theoretical investigations also predicated the high performance can be well preserved at sub-10 nm nodes in the ballistic limit.However, both experimental experience and theoretical calculation
