TL;DR: In this article, the effect of streamwise slots and grooves on a normal shock wave-turbulent boundary-layer interaction has been investigated experimentally at a Mach number of 1.3.
Abstract: The effect of streamwise slots and grooves on a normal shock wave-turbulent boundary-layer interaction has been investigated experimentally at a Mach number of 1.3. The surface pressure distribution for the controlled interaction in the presence of slots featured a distinct plateau. This was due to a change in shock structure from a typical unseparated normal shock wave-boundary-layer interaction to a large bifurcated lambda type shock pattern. Velocity measurements downstream of the slots revealed a strong spanwise variation of boundary-layer properties, whereas the modified shock structure was found to be relatively two-dimensional. Cross flow measurements indicate that slots introduce streamwise vortices into the flow. When applied to an aerofoil, streamwise slots have the potential to reduce wave drag while incurring only small viscous penalties. In the presence of grooves the interaction was initially found to be significantly different. A bifurcated shock structure was observed but the trailing leg appeared stronger and featured a second lambda foot. Oil flow visualisation also revealed differences in the interactions, with the region of suction and blowing being limited to a smaller extent of the grooved control surface. The amount of crossflow present was reduced compared to the slotted control surface. By varying the internal geometry of the grooves it was found that the interaction could be modified to be similar to that in the presence of slots indicating that a more practical control device can be designed.

TL;DR: A novel dehazing approach based on a local consistent Markov random field framework, which effectively improves the image quality captured by the CMOS image sensor and has the combined advantages of detail recovery and color preservation.
Abstract: The CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) is a new type of solid image sensor device widely used in object tracking, object recognition, intelligent navigation fields, and so on. However, images captured by outdoor CMOS sensor devices are usually affected by suspended atmospheric particles (such as haze), causing a reduction in image contrast, color distortion problems, and so on. In view of this, we propose a novel dehazing approach based on a local consistent Markov random field (MRF) framework. The neighboring clique in traditional MRF is extended to the non-neighboring clique, which is defined on local consistent blocks based on two clues, where both the atmospheric light and transmission map satisfy the character of local consistency. In this framework, our model can strengthen the restriction of the whole image while incorporating more sophisticated statistical priors, resulting in more expressive power of modeling, thus, solving inadequate detail recovery effectively and alleviating color distortion. Moreover, the local consistent MRF framework can obtain details while maintaining better results for dehazing, which effectively improves the image quality captured by the CMOS image sensor. Experimental results verified that the method proposed has the combined advantages of detail recovery and color preservation.

TL;DR: The discovery of MOA-2013-BLG-220Lb has been reported in this article, which has a super-Jupiter mass ratio q = 3.01 ± 0.02 × 10−3 relative to its host.
Abstract: We report the discovery of MOA-2013-BLG-220Lb, which has a super-Jupiter mass ratio q = 3.01 ± 0.02 × 10–3 relative to its host. The proper motion, μ = 12.5 ± 1 mas yr–1, is one of the highest for microlensing planets yet discovered, implying that it will be possible to separately resolve the host within ~7 yr. Two separate lines of evidence imply that the planet and host are in the Galactic disk. The planet could have been detected and characterized purely with follow-up data, which has important implications for microlensing surveys, both current and into the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) era.
