Effects of solutes on thermodynamic properties of (TMZrU)C (TM = Ta, Y) medium-entropy carbides: a first-principles study
High entropy carbide ceramics have garnered significant interest as a novel class of ultra-high temperature and superhard metallic materials. In the present work, a comparative investigation was conducted for the first time on the stability, mechanical, and thermodynamic properties of two medium entropy carbides (MECs), (TaZrU)C and (YZrU)C, using high-throughput first-principles calculations. Additionally, data from groups IV and V transition metal monocarbides were employed for comparison. The temperature-dependent thermodynamic properties, including bulk modulus (B), constant volume/constant pressure heat capacity (Cv/Cp), Gibbs free energy, volume, entropy, and thermal conductivity, were evaluated using the Debye-Gruneisen model. The results demonstrate that (TaZrU)C and (YZrU)C exhibit similar trends in their thermodynamic properties, with (YZrU)C displaying slightly superior performance as the temperature rises. This work provides valuable insights into the design of innovative high entropy fuels, holding significant implications for the advancement of MEC ceramic fuels in advanced nuclear power systems and nuclear thermal propulsion systems.

Proceedings of the 23rd Pacific Basin Nuclear Conference, Volume 3
This is the third in a series of three volumes of proceedings of the 23rd Pacific Basin Nuclear Conference (PBNC 2022) which was held by Chinese Nuclear Society. As one in the most important and influential conference series of nuclear science and technology, the 23rd PBNC was held in Beijing and Chengdu, China in 2022 with the theme “Nuclear Innovation for Zero-carbon Future”. For taking solid steps toward the goals of achieving peak carbon emissions and carbon neutrality, future-oriented nuclear energy should be developed in an innovative way for meeting global energy demands and coordinating the deployment mechanism. It brought together outstanding nuclear scientists and technical exp...
HPV infection and cervical, vagina, and vulvar cancers
Persistent infection with oncogenic types of human papillomavirus (HPV) is commonly detected in the pre-cancerous lesions and invasive cancers of female lower genital organs. Currently, over 200 HPV genotypes have been identified. With the knowledge of HPV in female genital tracts infection and carcinogenesis advanced, HPV testing has recently been recommended as one of the primary screening methods for cervical cancer prevention. However, understanding HPV at a systematic level is lacking and disconnected. For example, the development and evaluation of new HPV vaccines face challenges related to efficacy, safety, and scalability. Viral persistence mechanisms and immune interaction among HPV...

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy
Stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) has emerged as an important innovative treatment for various primary and metastatic cancers. This book provides a comprehensive and up-to-date account of the physical/technological, biological, and clinical aspects of SBRT. It will serve as a detailed resource for this rapidly developing treatment modality. The organ sites covered include lung, liver, spine, pancreas, prostate, adrenal, head and neck, and female reproductive tract. Retrospective studies and prospective clinical trials on SBRT for various organ sites from around the world are examined, and toxicities and normal tissue constraints are discussed. This book features unique insights from world-renowned experts in SBRT from North America, Asia, and Europe. It will be necessary reading for radiation oncologists, radiation oncology residents and fellows, medical physicists, medical physics residents, medical oncologists, surgical oncologists, and cancer scientists.

From Comrade to Citizen
A leading scholar of China's modern political development examines the changing relationship between the Chinese people and the state. Correcting the conventional view of China as having instituted extraordinary economic changes but having experienced few political reforms in the post-Mao period, Merle Goldman details efforts by individuals and groups to assert their political rights. China's move to the market and opening to the outside world have loosened party controls over everyday life and led to the emergence of ideological diversity. Starting in the 1980s, multi-candidate elections for local officials were held, and term limits were introduced for communist party leaders. Establishmen...
