Abstract Polarization is a prominent feature of gravitational wave observations and can be used to distinguish between different modified gravity theories. Compared to General Relativity, f(R) gravity exhibits an additional polarization originating from a scalar field, which is a combination of the...

Water used in agriculture consumes much energy, mainly due to pumping water for irrigation, but the water-energy nexus is always neglected in arid and semi-arid areas. Based on hydrological observation data, irrigation data and socio-economic data over the past 50 yr, this study has derived a detail...

Exploration geochemical data are typically collected and analyzed according to standard map sheets. Different map sheets may be tested by different companies, at different times, or using different instruments. As a result, “systematic errors” inevitably arise, which are directly reflected in the “s...

New zeroth-order resonator (ZOR): the curved EZR-MZR resonator [epsilon-zero resonance (EZR) and mu-zero resonance (MZR)] was proposed for circular-polarized (CP) antenna design with low-profile and omnidirectional characteristics. The proposed curved EZR-MZR resonator has two orthogonal polarizatio...
