Nipah virus (NiV) is a zoonotic emergent paramyxovirus that can cause severe encephalitis and respiratory infections in humans, with a high fatality rate ranging from 40% to 75%. Currently, there are no approved human vaccines or antiviral drugs against NiV. Here, we designed a ferritin-based self-a...

Ghost diffraction and ghost imaging are investigated in a lensless imaging system. The evolution process from ghost diffraction to ghost imaging is discussed when the object is moved far away from the source in the test arm. The relation of ghost diffraction and imaging is also studied, and it is fo...

This study investigated the distribution, abundance, and mass budget of microplastics (MPs) in the Beibu Gulf, Northern South China Sea, focusing on their ecological significance and anthropogenic influence. Microplastics were found in all water and sediment samples, with concentrations in surface w...

On January 30, 2024, China announced the first human case of H10N5 influenza infection. Prior to this, human cases of H10N7 and H10N8 had been reported. It is now appropriate to re-examine the evolution and future epidemiological trends of the H10 and N5 subtypes of avian influenza viruses (AIVs). I...

Liquid water content (LWC) and cloud droplet effective size (CDES) are important factors affecting atmospheric radiative transfer, and measurement of these parameters in clouds is essential. For homogeneous liquid cloud (constant extinction coefficient) with a gamma size distribution of cloud drople...

Image pixel density is a key factor limiting image clarity, while the scalar spatial bandwidth product (SBP) is the critical parameter determining the resolution of acoustic holographic imaging. Under finite SBP conditions, achieving high-resolution imaging remains a significant challenge for curren...
