Abstract: A courtesy logo lamp or a courtesy lamp is installed in a part on the interior side of a door of a vehicle. The courtesy logo lamp or the courtesy lamp includes a light source, a light guide and an outer lens. The light guide includes a light input surface that allows input of light from the light source, a light guide portion that guides light input from the light input surface, and a light output surface that allows output of the light guided by the light guide portion. The outer lens includes a transmission/diffusion portion. The transmission/diffusion portion allows input of the light output from the light output surface of the light guide, from a back surface, penetration of the light in the thickness direction and diffusion of the light, and radiation of the light from the front surface to the outside.

Abstract: Provided is a process for preparing alkyl aromatic compounds. The process comprises contacting an alkane under dehydrogenation conditions in the presence of a dehydrogenation catalyst, e.g., a pincer iridium catalyst, to form olefins, and then contacting the olefins generated with an aromatic compound under alkylation conditions. Both reactions are conducted in a single reactor, and occur simultaneously.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for quickly searching and ranking related documents in a database, and an interactive window that allows a user to dynamically reselect a priority of a score among a plurality of scores for re-ranking documents. In operation, the search engine 102 receives a query comprising a plurality of keywords from the user 100 via a user interface 101, performs a binary search on the sorted database 103 to quickly produce a list of files-of-interest. The ranking engine 104 uses the list of files-of-interest to search corresponding files in the list from the original database 105, score corresponding files to obtain the plurality of scores based on a plurality of paragraph scores for ranking files, where each paragraph score is calculated based on a number of matched query-keywords, frequency of occurrences and proximity distances between matched keywords within each paragraph.
