TL;DR: In this paper, Bui et al. studied the acoustic wave resonance in piezoelectric PVF2 film, and found that it was due to the internal losses in polyvinylidene fluoride (F’VF2) ultrasonic transducers.

TL;DR: In this article, Tung showed that for any integer x 0 the equation F (x 0, Y ) = 0 has an integral solution y, and that there exists a polynomial f(X) ∈ Q[X] such that F (X, Y) = 0.
Abstract: where F ∈ Q[X,Y ] is a given polynomial and T ∈ N is a variable growing to infinity. For a fixed integer x0, the quantity miny∈Z |F (x0, y)| (which was investigated already in [DZ]) gives a measure of the distance of the roots of F (x0, Y ) = 0 from the integers; the function SF (T ) expresses the behaviour of this distance as the first variable grows. Actually, SF (T ) implicitly appears in the statement of Hilbert’s Irreducibility Theorem; in fact most proofs of it (see e.g. [S]) reduce to showing the following: If for every integer x0 the equation F (x0, Y ) = 0 has an integral solution y, then there exists a polynomial f(X) ∈ Q[X] such that F (X, f(X)) = 0 identically. Note that the assumption of this statement may be reformulated as SF (T ) = 0 for all positive T . Hence, Hilbert’s theorem proves that either F (X, f(X)) = 0 for some polynomial f ∈ Q[X] or we have a lower bound SF (T ) ≥ c > 0 for all large T . Note that it may happen that SF (T ) is bounded, e.g. when there exists a polynomial f(X) ∈ Q[X], taking integral values on Z, such that F (X, f(X)) is a constant. However, Tung proves, among other things, that this is essentially the only case when SF (T ) is bounded. In fact, Tung has a much sharper conclusion. To state it, we first define, for an infinite set A ⊂ N, the symbol A(T ) = A ∩ [1, T ],

TL;DR: In this paper, β-Sitosterol, β-sitosteryl palmitate and cyclolaudenol were isolated from the rhizomes of Coniogramme japonica.
Abstract: β-Sitosterol, β-sitosteryl palmitate, β-sitosteryl-β-D-glucoside and cyclolaudenol were isolated from the rhizomes, long chain aliphatic esters and an UV stabilizer, octabenzone, were isolated from the leaves of Coniogramme japonica.
