This paper draws the following conclusions on the nature of time by analyzing the relationship between time and speed, the relationship between time and gravitational field, the gravitational redshift of the photon, and the black-body radiation theorem: Time on an object is proportional to the amount of energy flowing out (or in) per unit time (observer’s time) per unit surface area of the object. When an object radiates energy outward: t'=μB(T) =μσT 4=μnhν/st Where t’ is the time on the object, μ is a constant, B(T) is the radiosity,the total energy radiated from the unit surface area of the object in unit time (observer’s time), σ is the Stefan-Boltzmann constant, T is the absolute temperature, n is the number of the photons radiated, ν is the average frequency of the photons radiated, s is the surface area of the object and t is the time on the observer. When the object radiates energy outward, the higher the energy density of the space (for example the stronger the gravitational field of the space), the smaller the radiosity B(T) of the object in the space, the longer the average wavelength of the light quantum emitted by the object, the slower the time on the object, the longer the life of the system. When the object radiates energy outward, the faster the object moves relative to the ether, the higher the energy density of the local space in which the object is located, the smaller the radiosity B(T) of the object, the longer the average wavelength of the light quantum radiated by the object, the slower the time on the object, and the longer the life of the system. When the object radiates energy outward, the higher the temperature of the object, the greater the object's radiosity B(T), the shorter the average wavelength of the light quantum radiated by the object, the faster the time on the object, and the shorter the life of the system. Applying the above conclusions about the nature of time, the author analyzes the Mpemba effect and the inverse Mpemba effect, and reaches the following conclusion: the Mpemba effect is the time effect produced when heat flows from objects into space, and the "inverse" Mpemba effect is the time effect produced when heat flows from space into objects.

:A plasmonic sensor based on a dual-side polished photonic crystal fiber operating in a telecommunication wavelength range is proposed and investigated numerically by the finite element method (FEM). We study the effects of structural parameters on the sensor’s performance and analyze their tuning effects on loss spectra. As a result, two configurations are found when the analyte refractive index (RI) changes from 1.395 to 1.415. For configuration 1, an RI resolution of 9.39 × 10−6, an average wavelength sensitivity of 10,650 nm/RIU (the maximum wavelength sensitivity is 12,400 nm/RIU), an amplitude sensitivity of 252 RIU−1 and a linearity of 0.99692 are achieved. For configuration 2, the RI resolution, average wavelength sensitivity, amplitude sensitivity and linearity are 1.19 × 10−5, 8400 nm/RIU, 85 RIU−1 and 0.98246, respectively. The combination of both configurations can broaden the wavelength range for the sensing detection. Additionally, the sensor has a superior figure of merit (FOM) to a single-side polished design. The proposed sensor has a maximum wavelength sensitivity, amplitude sensitivity and RI resolution of the same order magnitude as that of existing sensors as well as higher linearity, which allows it to fulfill the requirements for modern sensing of being densely compact, amenable to integration, affordable and capable of remote sensing.

Laboratory experiments have been conducted that test the predictions of Holmboe (Geofys. Publ., vol. 24, 1962, pp. 67–112). Symmetric Holmboe instabilities are observed during steady, maximal two-layer exchange flow in a long laboratory channel of rectangular cross-section. Internal hydraulic controls at each end of the channel isolate the subcritical region within the channel from disturbances in the reservoirs. Inside the channel, the instabilities form cusp-like waves that propagate in both directions. The phase speed of the instabilities is consistent with Holmboe's theory and increases along the length of the channel as a result of the gradual acceleration of each layer. This acceleration causes the wavelength of any given instability to increase in the flow direction until it is approximately twice the most amplified wavelength. At this point new waves develop with the result that the average wavelength is almost constant along the length of the channel.

The morphology and phase structure of Al/Cu explosive compounded interface were observed by scanning electron microscope, high-resolution transmission electron microscope and X-ray energy spectrometer. The results reveal that the interface of Al/Cu appears wave-like structure, with an average wavelength of 1.0mm and crest height of 0.3mm. Every wave has its front-nest. The wavelike interfaces are composed of microcrystal compound layer, non-crystal and nanocrystal. Several kinds of compounds such as Al9Cul2, Al4Cu9, Al2Cu, η-AlCu, β-AlCu3 and unidentified phase structure were found in Al/Cu interface. There are some bent lattice fringes around the front-nest. The research of microstructure in anchoring area revealed the nature of explosive cladding in metallurgical anchoring.

Local weighted averaging of instantaneous seismic attributes improves their interpretability by removing spikes and reducing rapid and confusing variations. Averaging in a window weighted by the instantaneous power produces a local measure that equals a Fourier spectral average, facilitating quantitative analysis. Local 1-D frequency and bandwidth are scalars, but local 2-D and 3-D seismic attributes derive from average vector wavenumbers, which may require velocity information. The direction of the average vector wavenumber provides average dip and azimuth, and its magnitude provides a measure of average wavelength or frequency. A related measure of bandwidth is a scalar in all dimensions; it includes contributions from both instantaneous bandwidth and the variance of instantaneous frequency or wavenumber. It quantifies data similarity.

AbstractSome atomic or ionic lines emitted by the stellar atmospheres are very useful clues for estimating the local magnetic fields. However, their use is often complicated by insufficient experimental resolution and by the occurence of hyperfine structure. But the average wavelength and the width of the component set corresponding to each type of polarisation are given by compact formulae, in terms of the magnetic field, and of the Landé factors and hyperfine magnetic and electric constants of both involved levels.

ABSTRACTAn eutectic alloy of antimony and manganese was directionally solidified to produce a composite of cylindrical fibers of MnSb aligned in a Sb matrix. The fibers were about 3 microns in diameter by 1 millimeter long and occupied 30% of the composite volume. Isothermal aging caused the fibers to develop undulations that had an average wavelength of 1.74 + 0.45 times the fiber circumference. The Nichols' and Mullins' model of fiber spheroidization predicts an undulation wavelength of √2 times the fiber circumference, for interface diffusion control. The Coine model, for volume diffusion control, predicts a wavelength that approaches infinity for this fiber volume fraction. Our modeling efforts have shown that the predicted wavelength is quite sensitive to the assumed spatial correlation between nodes on adjacent fibers. We also found that the undulation growth rate achieves a broad maximum as a function of wavelength, which may account for the large standard deviation associated with our measurements.

1. In forward-swimming Paramecium the direction of metachronal wave propagation is turned progressively clockwise from forward-right to backward-left if the viscosity of the medium is increased to more than 100 cP. 2. With increasing viscosity the direction of the power stroke is turned clockwise at a lower rate than the direction of waves. This leads to a gradual transformation of the dexioplectic metachrony toward a symplectic pattern. 3. As viscosity is raised the polarization of the ciliary cycle in time and space is Progressively reduced, so that the beat becomes increasingly helicoidal. 4. Metachronal coordination gradually breaks down at viscosities of more than about 100 cP, but is retained better at the anterior end of the cell than in more posterior regions. 5. At viscosities above 12 cP the left-handed swimming helix of Paramecium is changed into a right-handed helix. This is produced primarily by the viscositydependent clockwise shift in the direction of the power stroke from backward-right to backward-left. 6. The frequency of peristomal cilia (32/s. at 20°C) decreases with rising viscosity. Under constant conditions, a posteriorly directed gradient of decreasing frequency can be observed with the stroboscope. 7. Raising the viscosity leads to an increase of the average wavelength from 10.7 µm at 1 cP to 14.3 µm at 40 cP. In the same range of viscosity the wave velocity, which is the product of frequency and wavelength, is reduced from 340 to 200 µm/s, since the drop in frequency exceeds the increase in wavelength. 8. The wave velocity tends to be stabilized by reciprocal relations between frequency and wavelength, if all other factors are kept constant. However, the wavelength is found to be different in forward-swimming and backward-swimming animals at 40 cP without a change in frequency (14.1 bps; 14.3 compared to 12.7 µm). This is explained if the metachronal wavelength is increased by decreasing polarization of the ciliary cycle. 9. A working hypothesis is put forward which explains the origin of a metachronal system by the distribution of forces parallel to the cell surface produced by polarized or unpolarized cycles of ciliary movement.
