TL;DR: In this article, Nitrogen-doped TiO 2 (TiO 2− x N x ) photocatalysts loaded with various transition metal ions, including Cu, Pt, Ni, Zn and La, were prepared using a wet impregnation method.
Abstract: Nitrogen-doped TiO 2 (TiO 2− x N x ) photocatalysts loaded with various transition metal ions, including Cu, Pt, Ni, Zn and La, were prepared using a wet impregnation method. Photocatalytic activity of the catalysts under visible light irradiation ( λ > 410 nm) for acetaldehyde oxidation was examined. As a result, it was found that photocatalytic activity over TiO 2− x N x (concentration of nitrogen was found to be ∼0.25 at.%) was markedly enhanced by Cu or Pt loading, while Ni, Zn or La loaded TiO 2− x N x showed similar photodegradation rate to the bare TiO 2− x N x . Among them, the enhancement effect of Cu ion was found highest. The optimum concentration of Cu was found to be 0.5 wt%, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and X-ray induced Auger electron spectroscopy (XAES) analyses suggested the presence of Cu 2 O or Cu hydroxides on the catalyst surface. In terms of the long-term stability of the catalysts, it was confirmed that more than 2100 μmol of CO 2 was produced when acetaldehyde was continuously photooxidized over 1100 μmol of Cu loaded TiO 2− x N x under visible light for 100 consecutive days (>410 nm, 0.9 mW/cm 2 , in a 1 L vessel).

TL;DR: The human body, mechanically speaking, comprises a system of levers capable of rotary motions, and the more rotations that are brought into the action, the higher the final speed of the action.
Abstract: The human body, mechanically speaking, comprises a system of levers capable only of rotary motions. Most human movement consists of a series of rotations of many segments of the body. The more rotations that are brought into the action, if they are timed in sequence, the higher the final speed of the action.

TL;DR: In this paper, a vehicle seat is equipped with a side air bag assembly, the air bag of which is assembled within a side cavity formed in one side of a back rest of the vehicle seat in a folded condition.
Abstract: A vehicle seat is equipped with a side air bag assembly, the air bag of which is assembled within a side cavity formed in one side of a back rest of the vehicle seat in a folded condition. A rear attachment board is mounted on a support frame of the back rest, and has a back portion formed to cover the rear face of the back rest and a side portion formed to cover the air bag in the side cavity. The side portion of the rear attachment board is formed as a door portion to be opened outwardly when applied with a thrusting force caused by inflation of the air bag.

TL;DR: In this paper, the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon was examined using low energy effective theories of QCD, the Nambu\char21{}Jona-Lasinio model, and hidden local chiral symmetry, as guides.
Abstract: The hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to muon $g\ensuremath{-}2$ is examined using low energy effective theories of QCD, the Nambu\char21{}Jona-Lasinio model, and hidden local chiral symmetry, as guides. Our result is $\ensuremath{-}36\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}11}$ with an uncertainty of $\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{}16\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}11}$, which includes our best estimate of model dependence. This is within the expected measurement uncertainty of $40\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{10}^{\ensuremath{-}11}$ in the forthcoming experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Our result removes one of the main theoretical obstacles in verifying the existence of the weak contribution to the muon $g\ensuremath{-}2$.
