Abstract: A magnetic multi-pole propulsion array system is applied to at least one external cathode and includes a plurality of magnetic multi-pole thrusters connected adjacent to each other. Each magnetic multi-pole thruster includes a propellant provider, a discharge chamber, an anode and a plurality of magnetic components. The propellant provider outputs propellant. The discharge chamber is connected with the propellant provider to accommodate the propellant. The anode is disposed inside the discharge chamber to generate an electric field. The plurality of magnetic components is respectively disposed on several sides of the discharge chamber. One of the several sides of the discharge chamber of the magnetic multi-pole thruster is applied for one side of a discharge chamber of another magnetic multi-pole thruster.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a six-axis correction stage, an auto-collimation measurement device, a light splitter, a telecentric image measurement device, and a controller. The six-axis correction stage carries a device under test; the auto-collimation measurement device is arranged above the six-axis correction stage along a measurement optical axis; the light splitter is arranged on the measurement optical axis and is interposed between the six-axis correction stage and the auto-collimation measurement device. A method controls the six-axis correction stage to correct rotation errors in at least two degrees of freedom of the device under test according to a measurement result of the auto-collimation measurement device, and controls the six-axis correction stage to correct translation and yaw errors in at least three degrees of freedom of the device under test according to a measurement result of the telecentric image measurement device by means of the controller.

Abstract: The invention provides a yeast strain and a method for making the same. The method has the step of replacing the regulation region upstream of the hsp104 gene in the genome of the yeast, so as to accelerate and prolong the expression span of hsp104 gene and enhance the capability of the yeast to ferment and produce ethanol in a high-temperature environment. The yeast is capable of fermenting glucose at a temperature higher than 42° C. to produce ethanol, or biomass ethanol, wherein the ethanol production ratio based on fermentation of glucose is higher than 97%. Being able to synchronize the degradation/hydrolysis stage and fermentation stage of biomass ethanol producing process, the yeast in accordance with the present invention is able to lower the production cost of biomass ethanol and further raise the productivity with its high ethanol production ratio.
