在总结相关专利的基础上,本文发明了一种便携式高频X射线机的锂离子电池的供电方法和控制电路。阐述了锂离子电池给X射线管的高压供电和灯丝加热。设计了半桥逆变的主电路方案,以及X射线机的管电压和管电流的反馈检测电路装置。样机总质量1.5 kg,总体积不大于15 cm×15 cm×15 cm。电池组容量可曝光300次,输出电压范围在19~25 V之间,管电压60 k V,波动5%,管电流2 m A,波动8%。样机轻便,体积小,便于携带,且能拍摄出清晰图片,能满足拍片要求。基于半桥逆变的供电方案,其管电流、管电压的波动比全桥逆变供电时要大,即精度会有所降低,但其结构简单,成本降低,体积减少,适合制作小容量的便携式X射线机。     

Crystal structure of the human beta2 adrenergic G-protein-coupled receptor

Structural analysis of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) for hormones and neurotransmitters has been hindered by their low natural abundance, inherent structural flexibility, and instability in detergent solutions. Here we report a structure of the human beta2 adrenoceptor (beta2AR), which was crystallized in a lipid environment when bound to an inverse agonist and in complex with a Fab that binds to the third intracellular loop. Diffraction data were obtained by high-brilliance microcrystallography and the structure determined at 3.4 A/3.7 A resolution. The cytoplasmic ends of the beta2AR transmembrane segments and the connecting loops are well resolved, whereas the extracellular regions of the beta2AR are not seen. The beta2AR structure differs from rhodopsin in having weaker interactions between the cytoplasmic ends of transmembrane (TM)3 and TM6, involving the conserved E/DRY sequences. These differences may be responsible for the relatively high basal activity and structural instability of the beta2AR, and contribute to the challenges in obtaining diffraction-quality crystals of non-rhodopsin GPCRs.     

Evidence for an ancient martian ocean in the topography of deformed shorelines

A suite of observations suggests that the northern plains of Mars, which cover nearly one third of the planet's surface, may once have contained an ocean. Perhaps the most provocative evidence for an ancient ocean is a set of surface features that ring the plains for thousands of kilometres and that have been interpreted as a series of palaeoshorelines of different age. It has been shown, however, that topographic profiles along the putative shorelines contain long-wavelength trends with amplitudes of up to several kilometres, and these trends have been taken as an argument against the martian shoreline (and ocean) hypothesis. Here we show that the long-wavelength topography of the shorelines is consistent with deformation caused by true polar wander--a change in the orientation of a planet with respect to its rotation pole--and that the inferred pole path has the geometry expected for a true polar wander event that postdates the formation of the massive Tharsis volcanic rise.
