An improved correlation method for amplitude estimation of gravitational background signal with time-varying frequency.

In the measurement of the gravitational constant G with angular acceleration method, the accurate estimation of the amplitude of the useful angular acceleration generated by source masses depends on the effective subtraction of the spurious gravitational signal caused by room fixed background masses. The gravitational background signal is of time-varying frequency, and mainly consists of the prominent fundamental frequency and second harmonic components. We propose an improved correlation method to estimate the amplitudes of the prominent components of the gravitational background signal with high precision.

Influence of temperature on period of torsion pendulum with a high-Q fused silica fiber.

Due to the high-Q fused silica fiber's extreme sensitivity to temperature change, the period estimation of torsion pendulum with high precision depends on the effective correction of the thermoelastic effect. In the measurement of G with the time-of-swing method, we analyze the complex relation between temperature and the pendulum's period and propose a developed method to find the shear thermoelasticity coefficient as well as isolate the influence of temperature on period alone. The result shows that the shear thermoelasticity coefficient is 101(2) × 10(-6)/°C, the resultant correction to Δ(ω(2)) is 9.

[Antitumor effect of baicalin on rat brain glioma].

Objective: To investigate the therapeutic mechanism of baicalin on rat brain glioma.

Methods: Deep brain glioma models were established by injection of glioma cell line C6 cells into the brain of Wistar rats. The rats at 7 days after modeling were randomly divided into tumor control group (0.

An improved correlation method for determining the period of a torsion pendulum.

Considering variation of environment temperature and unhomogeneity of background gravitational field, an improved correlation method was proposed to determine the variational period of a torsion pendulum with high precision. The result of processing experimental data shows that the uncertainty of determining the period with this method has been improved about twofolds than traditional correlation method, which is significant for the determination of gravitational constant with time-of-swing method.
