    1 / f Noise in Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld Models on Narrow Stripes

    No full text
    We report our findings of a 1/f power spectrum for the total amount of sand in directed and undirected Bak-Tang-Wiesenfeld models confined to narrow stripes and driven locally. The underlying mechanism for the 1/f noise in these systems is an exponentially long configuration memory giving rise to a very broad distribution of time scales. Both models are solved analytically with the help of an operator algebra to explicitly show the appearance of the long configuration memory

    Smilax austrosinensis F.T. Wang & Tang (1934: 423). Type:— CHINA. Chongqing [Szechuan]: Nanchuan, Mt. Jinfo [Chinfu Shan], elev. ca. 1800 m, 27 May 1928, W. P. Fang 1099 (holotype PE00035146; isotypes A00030078, PE00034188). A paratype in CQNM: CHINA. Sichuan: Mt. Emei, elev. ca. 1700 m, 7 July 1931, F. T . Wang 23243 (CQNM0006992, PE00432616). = Smilax lanceifolia var. elongata (Warb. in Diels 1900: 259) F.T.Wang & Tang in Wang et al. (1978: 220). Note:— Wang & Tang (1934) designated W. P. Fang 1099 as the type in the protologue without specifying the herbarium. For the above traced three duplicates of this gathering, only PE00035146 bears the handwriting annotation “ Smilax austrosinensis Wang et Tang, sp. nov. ” determined by Wang & Tang in May 1934. It is inferred that it is the only specimen Wang & Tang (1934) based when preparing the description of this name and it is the holotype, which is contrary to Lin & Yang (2015a), who considered that PE00034188 is the holotype. Though it contains more complete morphological characters, PE00034188 has handwriting of different style for the annotation “ Smilax austrosinensis Wang et Tang ” and determined in October 1934 on a label printed as “EMENDANDA”, which means a letter handwriting annotation and this specimen should be an isotype.Published as part of Chen, Feng & He, Hai, 2022, The historical relics in Chongqing Natural History Museum: An annotated checklist of original materials for 37 names of Chinese seed plants, pp. 38-52 in Phytotaxa 530 (1) on page 45, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.530.1.3, http://zenodo.org/record/582393

    Tang Code, Tang Rite, and Other Manuscripts of Tang Dynasty

    In the present paper, the author gives the preliminary reports on three newly found Tang 唐 official documents, pointing out their important value, and offering the all texts for further studies.1. In Tunhuang and Turfan Documents concerning Social and Economic History I. Legal Texts (Tokyo 1978-1980), Professors T. Yamamoto, O. Ikeda, and M. Okano published the joined texts of O. 5098 and O. 8099 from Otani collection. They identified the fragments with the Section on Violence and Robbery of the Tang Code (唐律), and pointed out the article comes from the Yonghui 永徽 or Chuigong 垂拱 Code according to the Zetian 則天 characters used in the Buddhist text on the verso. The author joins another fragment based on an old photograph of the Turfan document preserved in the Lüshun Museum (旅順博物館). The new text contains one different article from the printed text after the Song 宋 dynasty.2. Among the Dunhuang 敦煌 manuscripts in the National Library of China in Beijing, there is a good copy of the Tang Rite (唐礼) in high Tang characters (No. zhou 周 70A). It contains the text corresponding to the Da Tang Kaiyuan li 大唐開元礼, vol. 37: “Huangdi shixiang yu Taimiao 皇帝時享於太廟”. It is the first time to find the book in Dunhuang or Turfan manuscripts.3. In his Dunhuang Turfan Tangdai fazhi wenshu kaoshi 敦煌吐魯番唐代法制文書考釈, Liu Junwen thought the document of zhou 51 should be the Regulations of the Regional Military Organization. But the form of the original document could not conform to the Tang Regulations, so the author refutes his view and thinks that it is an official document relating to the beacon of the military fortress in the area of Dunhuang or Turfan.journal articl

    Lysiteles leptosiphus sp. nov. Figs 26–27 Type material: Holotype: ♀, China : Hainan: above the Wuzhishan mountainside (N18º53.835', E109º41.889', alt. 1593 m), 9 April 2009, G. Tang (IZCAS, Tang _ No. 111). Paratype: 1 ♀, same data as holotype (IZCAS, Tang _ No. 111). Etymology. The specific epithet is taken from the Latin adjective leptosiphus, and means small-tubeshaped, referring to the small copulatory ducts. Diagnosis. This new species is similar to L. silvanus Ono, 1980, but can be separated from the latter by the simple twist of the copulatory ducts around spermathecae (twisted together complicately in L. silvanus). Description. Female (holotype measured): Total length 2.80. Prosoma 1.10 long, 0.90 wide; Opisthosoma 1.80 long, 1.60 wide. Prosoma yellow, carapace with a large “n”-shaped blackish brown marking. Eye measurements: AME 0.07; ALE 0.12; PME 0.05; PLE 0.10; AME–AME 0.12; AME–ALE 0.22; PME–PME 0.20; PME–PLE 0.26. MOA length 0.26 with front width 0.28 and back width 0.30. Chelicera blackish brown, gnathecoxa and labium brown, sternum yellow. Legs yellow with sparse spines. Leg formula: II, I, IV, III; leg measurements: I: 2.70 (0.80, 1.00, 0.50, 0.40); II: 2.90 (0.85, 1.10, 0.55, 0.40); III: 2.05 (0.70, 0.75, 0.30, 0.30); IV: 2.15 (0.70, 0.80, 0.35, 0.30). Opithosoma with a pairs of longitudinal grayish black stripes extend to the venter. Epigynum (Figs 26 B–F, 27 A–B). Epigynum with a narrow sclerotized plate, copulatory openings bilaterally, copulatory ducts slender, twisted once around the oval spermathecae. Male: Unknown. Distribution. China (Hainan). Only known from the type locality. Variation. Total length: female, 3.30–4.00 (n=2).Published as part of Tang, Guo & Li, Shuqiang, 2010, 2369, pp. 1-68 in Zootaxa 2369 on pages 35-3

    Reinventing the Pre-Tang Tradition: Compiling and Publishing Pre-Tang Poetry Anthologies in Sixteenth-Century China

    No full text
    Abstract This article examines how the making of pre-Tang poetry anthologies in sixteenth-century Ming China led to a reinvention of the pre-Tang poetic tradition. From the Zhengde period 正德 (1506–21) well into the Wanli reign 萬曆 (1573–1620), the compilation and publication of new pre-Tang poetry anthologies saw a dramatic increase, making the anthologizing practices in the 1500s crucial to understanding the pre-Tang tradition. Through a study of paratextual elements (book titles, tables of contents, prefaces, postscripts, etc.) in twenty-two pre-Tang poetry anthologies compiled in the 1500s, this article identifies three types of anthologizing practices. By employing quantitative and network analysis, the author hopes to historicize these practices, investigate the motivations for the anthologies, and explore their citation networks. These anthologizing practices, I conclude, gradually transformed the classification principles of previous anthologies, expanded the scope of canonized anthologies, and established a distinct pre-Tang tradition by the end of the sixteenth century.</jats:p
