Total colouring of circulant graphs $C_{n}(1, 3)$

Total colouring of 4-regular circulant graphs is an interesting but challenging topic, and has attracted much attention. However, it still remains an open question to determine the total chromatic numbers of $C_{n}(1, 3)$, a subclass of 4-regular circulant graphs, even after many efforts. In this paper, we investigate the total colouring of these graphs and determine their total chromatic numbers. Our results show that the total chromatic numbers of $C_{n}(1, 3)$ are 6 for $n=7,8,12,13,17$, and 5 for all others.

Experimental Study of Bremsstrahlung Gamma Ray Emission and Short-Range Correlations in $^{124}$Sn+$^{124}$Sn Collisions at 25 MeV/u

Short-range correlation (SRC) in nuclei refers to nucleons forming temporally correlated pairs in close proximity, giving rise to the high momentum of the nucleons beyond the Fermi surface. It has been reported that bremsstrahlung $\gamma$ production from neutron-proton process in heavy-ion reactions provides a potential probe to the SRC abundance in nuclei. In this paper, we present in detail the precision measurement of bremsstrahlung $\gamma$-rays in $\rm ^{124}Sn$+$\rm ^{124}Sn$ reactions at 25 MeV/u using the Compact Spectrometer for Heavy IoN Experiment (CSHINE). A comprehensive experimental and analysis framework is established to ensure the reliability and robustness of the extracted results. Background contributions are evaluated and subtracted using independent methods, and the consistency of the analysis is systematically validated. By comparing the experimental $\gamma$ spectrum with the Isospin-dependent Boltzmann-Uehling-Uhlenbeck simulations, the high momentum tail (HMT) fraction of $R_{\rm HMT}=(20 \pm 3)\%$ is derived in $^{124}$Sn nuclei. This work provides a detailed and validated experimental framework for extracting SRC information from bremsstrahlung $\gamma$-ray emission and demonstrates the feasibility of studying nucleon SRCs with high precision in low-energy heavy-ion collisions.

Precise Measurement of Short-Range Correlations in Nuclei from Bremsstrahlung Gamma Ray Emission in Low-Energy Heavy-Ion Collisions

Atomic nuclei and dense nucleonic matter in neutron stars exhibit short-range correlations (SRCs), where nucleons form temporally correlated pairs in proximity beyond mean-field approximation. It is essential to make precision measurement of the fraction of SRC since it carries the signature of underlying quark dynamics in nuclear medium. In this letter, we present the first high-precision measurement of neutron-proton bremsstrahlung $\gamma$-ray emission from the symmetric $\rm ^{124}Sn$+$\rm ^{124}Sn$ reactions at 25 MeV/u. From the observed spectral hardening, the precise SRC fraction in the $\rm ^{124}Sn$ nucleus is extracted to be $(20 \pm 3)\%$. This result provides a novel, direct and unambiguous evidence of SRCs, and demonstrates that low-energy heavy-ion collisions offers a new approach to studying nuclear structure in connection with quark-level dynamics.

Extract neutron-neutron interaction strength and spatial-temporal dynamics of neutron emission from two-particle correlation function

The neutron-neutron ($nn$) correlation function has been measured in 25 MeV/u $^{124}$Sn+$^{124}$Sn reactions. Using the Lednick\'y-Lyuboshitz approach, the $nn$ scattering length and effective range ($f_{0}^{nn}$, $d_{0}^{nn}$), as well as the reduced space-time size $R^{(0)}$ of the neutron emission source are simultaneously extracted as ($18.9^{+1.3}_{-1.2}$ fm, $1.9^{+1.3}_{-1.0}$ fm) and $4.12 \pm 0.12$ fm, respectively. The measured $nn$ scattering length is consistent with the results obtained in the low-energy scattering $^{2}{\rm H}(\pi^{-},\gamma)2n$, indicating heavy-ion collisions can serve as an effective approach for measuring $nn$ interactions and further investigating the charge symmetry breaking of nuclear force. The space-time size extracted from momentum-gated correlation functions exhibits clear dependence on the pair momentum, with $R^{(0)}=2.8 \pm 0.1 $ fm and $4.9 \pm 0.2$ fm being determined for the high and low momentum neutrons, respectively.

Outer Independent Roman Domination Number of Cartesian Product of Paths and Cycles

Given a graph $G$ with vertex set $V$, an outer independent Roman dominating function (OIRDF) is a function $f$ from $V(G)$ to $\{0, 1, 2\}$ for which every vertex with label $0$ under $f$ is adjacent to at least a vertex with label $2$ but not adjacent to another vertex with label $0$. The weight of an OIRDF $f$ is the sum of vertex function values all over the graph, and the minimum of an OIRDF is the outer independent Roman domination number of $G$, denoted as $\gamma_{oiR}(G)$. In this paper, we focus on the outer independent Roman domination number of the Cartesian product of paths and cycles $P_{n}\Box C_{m}$. We determine the exact values of $\gamma_{oiR}(P_n\Box C_m)$ for $n=1,2,3$ and $\gamma_{oiR}(P_n\Box C_3)$ and present an upper bound of $\gamma_{oiR}(P_n\Box C_m)$ for $n\ge 4, m\ge 4$.

Dense Suspension Inertial Microfluidic Particle Theory (DENSE-IMPACT) Model for Elucidating Outer Wall Focusing at High Cell Densities

Inertial microfluidics has been limited to dilute particle concentrations due to defocusing (spreading out) at high particle concentrations. We observe a counterintuitive shift of focusing to the outer curved wall under high concentration flow, which contradicts the existing particle focusing theory. We developed a multiphase model incorporating lift forces and particle-particle interactions to explain this behaviour. Numerical simulations validated by experimental data reveal the shift is governed by the ratio of the lift force strength to that of particle interaction frequencies.

The neutron array of the compact spectrometer for heavy ion experiments in Fermi energy region

The emission of neutrons from heavy ion reactions is an important observable for studying the asymmetric nuclear equation of state and the reaction dynamics. A 20-unit neutron array has been developed and mounted on the compact spectrometer for heavy ion experiments (CSHINE) to measure the neutron spectra, neutron-neutron and neutron-proton correlation functions. Each unit consists of a $\rm 15\times 15\times 15~cm^3$ plastic scintillator coupled to a $ \phi=52 ~\rm mm$ photomultiplier. The Geant4 simulation with optical process is performed to investigate the time resolution and the neutron detection efficiency. The inherent time resolution of 212 ps is obtained by cosmic ray coincidence test. The n-$\gamma$ discrimination and time-of-flight performance are given by $\rm ^{252}Cf$ radioactive source test and beam test. The neutron energy spectra have been obtained in the angle range $30^\circ \le \theta_{\rm lab} \le 51^\circ$ in the beam experiment of $^{124}$Sn+$^{124}$Sn at 25 MeV/u with CSHINE.

The trigger system for the CSR external-target experiment

A trigger system has been designed and implemented for the HIRFL-CSR external target experiment (CEE), the spectrometer for studying nuclear matter properties with heavy ion collisions in the GeV energy region. The system adopts master-slave structure and serial data transmission mode using optical fiber to deal with different types of detectors and long-distance signal transmission. The trigger logic can be accessed based on command register and controlled by a remote computer. The overall field programmable gate array (FPGA) logic can be flexibly reconfigured online to match the physical requirements of the experiment. The trigger system has been tested in beam experiment. It is demonstrated that the trigger system functions correctly and meets the physical requirements of CEE.

A necessary and sufficient condition for lower bounds on crossing numbers of generalized periodic graphs in an arbitrary surface

Let $H$, $T$ and $C_n$ be a graph, a tree and a cycle of order $n$, respectively. Let $H^{(i)}$ be the complete join of $H$ and an empty graph on $i$ vertices. Then the Cartesian product $H\Box T$ of $H$ and $T$ can be obtained by applying zip product on $H^{(i)}$ and the graph produced by zip product repeatedly. Let $\textrm{cr}_Σ(H)$ denote the crossing number of $H$ in an arbitrary surface $Σ$. If $H$ satisfies certain connectivity condition, then $\textrm{cr}_Σ(H\Box T)$ is not less than the sum of the crossing numbers of its ``subgraphs". In this paper, we introduced a new concept of generalized periodic graphs, which contains $H\Box C_n$. For a generalized periodic graph $G$ and a function $f(t)$, where $t$ is the number of subgraphs in a decomposition of $G$, we gave a necessary and sufficient condition for $\textrm{cr}_Σ(G)\geq f(t)$. As an application, we confirmed a conjecture of Lin et al. on the crossing number of the generalized Petersen graph $P(4h+2,2h)$ in the plane. Based on the condition, algorithms are constructed to compute lower bounds on the crossing number of generalized periodic graphs in $Σ$. In special cases, it is possible to determine lower bounds on an infinite family of generalized periodic graphs, by determining a lower bound on the crossing number of a finite generalized periodic graph.

The crossing number of the complete 4-partite graph $K_{1,1,m,n}$

Let $\textrm{cr}(G)$ denote the crossing number of a graph $G$. The well-known Zarankiewicz's conjecture (ZC) asserted $\textrm{cr}(K_{m,n})$ in 1954. In 1971, Harborth gave a conjecture (HC) on $\textrm{cr}(K_{x_1,...,x_n})$. HC on $K_{1,m,n}$ is verified if ZC is true by Ho et al. in 2021. In this paper, we showed the following results: If both $m$ and $n$ are even, then \[\textrm{cr}(K_{1,1,m,n})\geq \frac{1}{2}(\textrm{cr}(K_{m+1,n+3})+\textrm{cr}(K_{m+3,n+1})-mn-\frac{1}{4}(m^2+n^2));\] If both $m$ and $n$ are odd, then \[\textrm{cr}(K_{1,1,m,n})\geq \frac{1}{2}(\textrm{cr}(K_{1,m+1,n+1})+\textrm{cr}(K_{2,m,n})-\frac{1}{4}(m+1)(n+1)+1);\] If $m$ is even and $n$ is odd, then \begin{equation}\nonumber \begin{split} \textrm{cr}(K_{1,1,m,n})&\geq \frac{1}{4}(\textrm{cr}(K_{m+1,n+2})+\textrm{cr}(K_{m+3,n+2})+2\textrm{cr}(K_{2,m,n}) \\&-m(n+1)-\frac{1}{4}(n+1)^2). \end{split} \end{equation} The lower bounds in our result imply that if both $m$ and $n$ are even and ZC is true, then HC on $K_{1,1,m,n}$ holds; if at least one of $m$ and $n$ is odd and both ZC and HC on $K_{2,m,n}$ are true, then HC on $K_{1,1,m,n}$ holds.

Disproof of a conjecture by Erdős and Guy on the crossing number of hypercubes

Let $Q_n$ be the $n$-dimensional hypercube, and let ${\rm cr}(Q_n)$ be the \textit{crossing number} of $Q_n$. Erdős and Guy in 1973 conjectured the following equality: ${\rm cr}(Q_n)=\frac{5}{32}4^n-\lfloor\frac{n^2+1}{2}\rfloor 2^{n-2}$. In this paper, we construct a drawing of $Q_n$ with less crossings when $n>6$, which implies that for $n>6$ we have a strict inequality.

Italian domination in generalized Petersen graphs

In a graph $G=(V,E)$, each vertex $v\in V$ is labelled with $0$, $1$ or $2$ such that each vertex labelled with $0$ is adjacent to at least one vertex labelled $2$ or two vertices labelled $1$. Such kind of labelling is called an Italian dominating function (IDF) of $G$. The weight of an IDF $f$ is $w(f)=\sum_{v\in V}f(v)$. The Italian domination number of $G$ is $γ_{I}(G)=\min_{f} w(f)$. Gao et al. (2019) have determined the value of $γ_I(P(n,3))$. In this article, we focus on the study of the Italian domination number of generalized Petersen graphs $P(n, k)$, $k\neq3$. We determine the values of $γ_I(P(n, 1))$, $γ_I(P(n, 2))$ and $γ_I(P(n, k))$ for $k\ge4$, $k\equiv2,3(\bmod5)$ and $n\equiv0(\bmod5)$. For other $P(n,k)$, we present a bound of $γ_I(P(n, k))$. With the obtained results, we partially solve the open problem presented by Brešar et al. (2007) by giving $P(n,1)$ is an example for which $γ_I=γ_{r2}$ and characterizing $P(n,2)$ for which $γ_I(P(n,2))=γ_{r2}(P(n,2))$. Moreover, our results imply $P(n,1)$ $(n\equiv0(\bmod\ 4))$ is Italian, $P(n,1)$ $(n\not\equiv0(\bmod\ 4))$ and $P(n,2)$ are not Italian.

Fault-Tolerant Path-Embedding of Twisted Hypercube-Like Networks THLNs

The twisted hypercube-like networks($THLNs$) contain several important hypercube variants. This paper is concerned with the fault-tolerant path-embedding of $n$-dimensional($n$-$D$) $THLNs$. Let $G_n$ be an $n$-$D$ $THLN$ and $F$ be a subset of $V(G_n)\cup E(G_n)$ with $|F|\leq n-2$. We show that for arbitrary two different correct vertices $u$ and $v$, there is a faultless path $P_{uv}$ of every length $l$ with $2^{n-1}-1\leq l\leq 2^n-f_v-1-α$, where $α=0$ if vertices $u$ and $v$ form a normal vertex-pair and $α=1$ if vertices $u$ and $v$ form a weak vertex-pair in $G_n-F$($n\geq5$).

The {\it crossing number} of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of pairwise intersections of edges in a drawing of $G$. In this paper, we give the exact values of crossing numbers for some variations of hypercube with order at most four, including crossed cube, locally twisted cube and Möbius cube.

The pancake graph is an important topology for interconnecting processors in parallel computers. In this paper, we prove the exact value of the crossing number of pancake graph $P_4$ is six.
