The v(1)+v(3) Bands of the (16)O(17)O(16)O and (16)O(16)O(17)O Isotopomers of Ozone

Using 0.002 cm(-1) resolution Fourier transform absorption spectra of an (17)O enriched ozone sample, an extensive analysis of the v(1)+v(3) bands of the (16)O(17)O(16)O and (16)O(16)O(17)O isotopomers of ozone has been performed for the first time. The experimental rotational levels of the (101) vibrational states were satisfactorily reproduced using a Hamiltonian matrix that takes into account the observed rovibrational resonances. More precisely, for (16)O(17)O(16)O, as for the other C(2v)-type ozone isotopomers, it was necessary to account for the Coriolis type resonances linking the (101) rotational levels with the levels of the (200) and (002) vibrational states and the Darling-Dennison interaction coupling the levels of (200) with those of (002). For the C(s)-type isotopomer, namely (16)O(16)O(17)O, as for (16)O(16)O(18)O and (16)O(18)O(18)O, it proved necessary to also account for an additional DeltaK(a)&equals+/-2 resonance involving the rotational levels from (101) and (002) (J.-M. Flaud and R. Bacis, Spectrochimica Acta Part A 54, 3-16 (1998)). Using a Hamiltonian matrix which takes these resonances explicitly into account, precise vibrational energies and rotational and coupling constants were deduced, leading to the following band centers: v(0)(v(1)+v(3))=2078.3496 cm(-1) for (16)O(17)O(16)O and v(0)(v(1)+v(3))=2098.8631 cm(-1) for (16)O(16)O(17)O.

Magnetic order in hybrid frustrated magnets Gd(2-x)Tb(x)Ti2O7 (x = 0.2 and 0.5)

We report on the specific heat, magnetization and ac susceptibility measurements of single crystals of hybrid frustrated magnets Gd(1.8)Tb(0.2)Ti(2)O(7) and Gd(1.5)Tb(0.5)Ti(2)O(7). The analysis of experimental data revealed that, although partial replacing of the Gd(3+) ions by the Tb(3+) ions in the Gd(2)Ti(2)O(7) host lattice slightly enhances antiferromagnetic coupling, as inferred from the evolution of the paramagnetic Curie-Weiss temperature, the ordering temperature gradually decreases. Paramagnetic correlations introduced by the Tb(3+) ions cause this perturbation, altering the effective further neighbor interactions and destabilizing the ground state in Gd(2)Ti(2)O(7). In addition, the low-energy states of Gd(2-x)Tb(x)Ti(2)O(7) are suggested to possess a nature different from those in parent members Tb(2)Ti(2)O(7) and Gd(2)Ti(2)O(7). Finally, the frequency-dependent magnetic susceptibility behavior in Gd(1.5)Tb(0.5)Ti(2)O(7) is consistent with the formation of a spin-glass-like state indicating a pronounced slowing down of the dynamical response of the studied hybrid magnets.

The ionic conductivity in lithium-boron oxide materials and its relation to structural, electronic and defect properties: insights from theory

We review recent theoretical studies on ion diffusion in (Li(2)O)(x)(B(2)O(3))(1-x) compounds and at the interfaces of Li(2)O :B(2)O(3) nanocomposite. The investigations were performed theoretically using DFT and HF/DFT hybrid methods with VASP and CRYSTAL codes. For the pure compound B(2)O(3), it was theoretically confirmed that the low-pressure phase B(2)O(3)-I has space group P3(1)21. For the first time, the structure, stability and electronic properties of various low-index surfaces of trigonal B(2)O(3)-I were investigated at the same theoretical level. The (101) surface is the most stable among the considered surfaces. Ionic conductivity was investigated systematically in Li(2)O, LiBO(2), and Li(2)B(4)O(7) solids and in Li(2)O:B(2)O(3) nanocomposites by calculating the activation energy (E(A)) for cation diffusion. The Li(+) ion migrates in an almost straight line in Li(2)O bulk whereas it moves in a zig-zag pathway along a direction parallel to the surface plane in Li(2)O surfaces. For LiBO(2), the migration along the c direction (E(A) = 0.55 eV) is slightly less preferable than that in the xy plane (E(A) = 0.43-0.54 eV). In Li(2)B(4)O(7), the Li(+) ion migrates through the large triangular faces of the two nearest oxygen five-vertex polyhedra facing each other where E(A) is in the range of 0.27-0.37 eV. A two-dimensional model system of the Li(2)O :B(2)O(3) interface region was created by the combination of supercells of the Li(2)O (111) surface and the B(2)O(3) (001) surface. It was found that the interface region of the Li(2)O:B(2)O(3) nanocomposite is more defective than Li(2)O bulk, which facilitates the conductivity in this region. In addition, the activation energy (E(A )) for local hopping processes is smaller in the Li(2)O :B(2)O(3) nanocomposite compared to the Li(2)O bulk. This confirms that the Li(2)O:B(2)O(3) nanocomposite shows enhanced conductivity along the phase boundary compared to that in the nanocrystalline Li(2)O.     

Sulfate Reduction in a Forested Catchment as Indicated by δ(34)S Values of Sulfate in Soil Solutions and Runoff

Abstract In a forested catchment in the Fichtelgebirge mountains (NE-Bavaria, Germany) the long term SO(4) (2-) budget (average 1988-1994) indicated that about 40% of the input with throughfall (16.8 kg SO(4) (2-) S·ha(-1)·yr(-1)) was retained in the catchment. In order to identify processes acting as potential SO(4) (2-) sinks, δ(34)S values of SO(4) (2-) in soil solutions and runoff were measured between May and November 1994. δ(34)S values of the runoff and the fen were higher (5.8‰) than the δ(34)S values of the soil solution of the oxic soils in the terrestrial area (3.9‰). Because there is no lithogenic S source within the catchment, it can be assumed that SO(4) (2-) deposition is the only S source in the catchment. Thus the results were interpreted as a result of SO(4) (2-) reduction within the catchment, because the uptake of (32)S is favoured during the dissimilatory SO(4) (2-) reduction and (34)S is consequently enriched in the soil solution. To estimate the amount of SO(4) (2-) reduced isotopic fractionation factors between - 9‰ and -46‰ were considered, resulting in SO(4) (2-) reduction rates of 1.8-9.3 kg SO(4) (2)-S·ha(-1)yr(-1). It was concluded that besides dissimilatory SO(4) (2-) reduction another sink exists in the catchment (e.g. SO(4) (2-) sorption in deep soil layers).

Abstract

The application of a U-shaped d.c. arc with aerosol supply for analysis of fresh waters has been described. Limits of detection obtained with d.c. plasma compare well with those reported for ICP. A number of spectral lines and molecular bands were examined and the most suitable are selected to ensure the best limits of detection or wide dynamic ranges. Limits of detection in ng ml^?1, given in the parenthesis, following the element symbol, are: Al(0.9), B(0.6), Ba(0.2), Be(0.15), Ca(0.05), Cd(3.5), Co(1.1), Cr(0.2), Fe(2.4), Ga(0.5), Hg(9.0), K(0.3), Li(0.008), Mg(0.4), Mn(0.3), Mo(0.7), Na(0.04), Ni(2.0), P(45), Pb(12), Si(9.0), Sr(0.04), Zn(1.3).

Measurement of bottom-quark hadron masses in exclusive J/psi decays with the CDF detector

We measure the masses of b hadrons in exclusively reconstructed final states containing a J/psi --> mu-mu+ decay using 220 pb(-1) of data collected by the CDF II experiment. We find: m(B+) = 5279.10 +/- 0.41(stat.) +/- 0.36(sys.) MeV/c2, m(B0) = 5279.63 +/- 0.53(stat.) +/- 0.33(sys.) MeV/c2, m(B(s)0) = 5366.01 +/- 0.73(stat.) +/- 0.33(sys.) MeV/c2, m(lambda(b)0) = 5619.7 +/- 1.2(stat.) +/- 1.2(sys.) MeV/c2. m(B+) - m(B0) = -0.53 +/- 0.67(stat.) +/- 0.14(sys.) MeV/c2, m(B(s)0) - m(B0) = 86.38 +/- 0.90(stat.) +/- 0.06(sys.) MeV/c2, m(lambda(b)0) - m(B0) = 339.2 +/- 1.4(stat.) +/- 0.1(sys.) MeV/c2. The measurements of the B(s)0, lambda(b)0 mass, m(B(s)0) - m(B0) and m(lambda(b)0) - m(B0) mass difference are of better precision than the current world averages.     

Generation, Microwave Spectrum, Barrier to Internal Rotation of Methyl Group, and ab Initio MO Calculation of syn-2-Nitrosopropene, syn-CH(2)&dbond;C(CH(3))&bond;N&dbond;O

syn-2-Nitrosopropene was generated, in the gas phase, by chemical reaction of 1-chloro-2-(hydroxyimino)propane with K(2)CO(3) and identified by microwave spectroscopy. The microwave spectrum of the reaction product was observed in the frequency range from 8.0 to 40.0 GHz. The rotational constants (MHz) were determined as A = 8744.09(6), B = 4846.07(2), and C = 3177.84(3) for CH(2)&dbond;C(CH(3))&bond;(14)NO (normal species) and A = 8664.36(5), B = 4822.15(3), and C = 3157.04(3) for CH(2)&dbond;C(CH(3))&bond;(15)NO ((15)N species) in the ground vibrational state. The values of the planar moment (P(cc) = (I(a) + I(b) - I(c))/2) obtained for the normal and (15)N species were 1.525(1) and 1.526(1) u ?(2), respectively. This suggests that the nitrogen atom lies in or is close to the ab inertial plane of the molecule and shows also that only two hydrogen atoms are located symmetrically out of the symmetry plane. The reaction product was determined to be syn-2-nitrosopropene by comparing the observed and calculated rotational constants, kappa (Ray's asymmetry parameter) and r(s) coordinates of the nitrogen atom. The dipole moments (D) were determined to be μ(a) = 2.43(5), μ(b) = 1.12(7), and μ(total) = 2.67(7). The barrier heights of the internal rotation owing to the methyl group of the normal species in the ground and first excited torsional states were determined to be 1750(50) and 1740(50) cal/mol (1 cal/mol = 4.184 J/mol), respectively. The (14)N nuclear quadrupole coupling constants (MHz) were determined to be chi(aa) = 0.25(21), chi(bb) = -7.11(40), and chi(cc) = 6.85(61). Two vibrational excited states were observed and the vibrational frequencies (cm(-1)) of the C-N and C-C torsional modes were determined to be 160(40) and 175(40), respectively. The lifetime of syn-2-nitrosopropene was found to be ca. 2 min in the waveguide cell. Copyright 2000 Academic Press.     

Degradation pathways of dissolved carbon in landfill leachate traced with compound-specific (13)C analysis of DOC

The isotopic compositions of carbon compounds in landfill leachate provide insights into the biodegradation pathways that dominate the different stages of waste decomposition. In this study, the carbon geochemistry of different carbon pools, environmental stable isotopes and compound-specific isotope analysis (CSIA) of leachate dissolved organic carbon (DOC) fractions and gases show distinctions in leachate biogeochemistry and methane production between the young area of active waste emplacement and the old area of historical emplacement at the Trail Road Landfill (TRL). The active area leachate has low DOC concentrations (<200 mg l(-1)) dominated by fulvic acid (FA=160 mg l(-1)), and produces CH(4) dominantly by CO(2) reduction (D- excess=20.6 per thousand). Leachate generated in the area of older waste has high DOC (>4770 mg l(-1)) dominated by FA (4482 mg l(-1)) and simple fatty acids (acetic=1008 mg l(-1) and propionic=608 mg l(-1)), and produces CH(4) by the acetate fermentation pathway (D- excess=9.8 per thousand). CSIA shows an advanced degradation and a progressive accumulation of (13)C of fatty acids in leachate from the older area. The enriched (13)C value of FA (-20 and-26 per thousand for the older and active parts, respectively,) and of low molecular weight DOC (-8 and-27 per thousand) as well as of the bulk DOC (-21 and-25 per thousand) shows more advanced degradation in the older part of the landfill, which is consistent with the shift in the humic/FA ratios (0.05 and 0.18). The (13)C enrichment of acetate (-12 per thousand) above the (13)C of DOC (-21 per thousand) and of propionic acid (-19 per thousand), in older leachate, suggests that this acetate has not evolved from the simple degradation of larger organic molecules, but by homoacetogenesis from the enriched dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) pool (8 per thousand) and H(2,) which produce a more enriched (13)C of acetate. In contrast, the (13)C of the minor acetate in the active area (-17 per thousand) indicates that CO(2)-reducing bacteria must be the primary consumers of H(2), which has resulted in enriched (13)C(DIC) (10 per thousand) and depleted (13)C(CH4) (-58 per thousand).     

Rovibrational Intensities of the (00(0)3) <-- (10(0)0) Dyad Absorption Bands of (12)C(16)O(2)

Absolute line intensities of (12)C(16)O(2) are experimentally measured for the first time for the (00(0)3)(I) <-- (10(0)0)(II) band at 5687.17 cm(-1) and the (00(0)3)(I) <-- (10(0)0)(I) band at 5584.39 cm(-1). The spectra were obtained using a Bomem DA8 Fourier transform spectrometer and a 25-m base-path White cell at NASA-Ames Research Center. The rotationless bandstrengths at a temperature of 296 K and the Herman-Wallis parameters are S(0)(vib) = 6.68(30) x 10(-25) cm(-1)/(molecule/cm(2)); A(1) = 1.4(9) x 10(-4), and A(2) = -1.1(5) x 10(-5) for the (00(0)3)(I) <-- (10(0)0)(II) band and S(0)(vib) = 6.07(22) x 10(-25) cm(-1)/(molecule/cm(2)); A(1) = 5.2(1.5) x 10(-4) and A(2) = -4.0(7) x 10(-5) for the (00(0)3)(I) <-- (10(0)0)(I) band.     

Experimental determination of the nu5 cis-bending vibrational frequency and Renner-Teller structure in ground state (X2Piu) C2H2+ using laser induced reactions

The spectrum of the nu(5) cis-bending vibration of ground state (X(2)Pi(u)) C(2)H(2)(+) has been recorded applying the method of laser induced reactions in a low-temperature 22-pole ion trap. It is obtained by counting the number of products of the reaction C(2)H(2)(+) (v(5) = 1) + H(2)--> C(2)H(3)(+) + H as a function of the laser wavelength. The vibronic transitions Delta-Pi and Sigma-Pi with their corresponding spin-orbit and Renner-Teller substructure have been observed. Using a perturbative analysis, the vibrational frequency has been determined to omega(5) = (710 +/- 4) cm(-1) and the Renner-Teller parameter epsilon(5) is on the order of 3 x 10(-2).     

Millimeter-Wave Spectroscopy of HCCCP in Excited Vibrational States

The rotational spectra of the unstable HCCCP molecule have been investigated in the millimeter-wave region for the main excited vibrational states which lie below 1000 cm(-1), namely nu(4) (C&bond;C stretch), nu(5) (HCC bend), nu(6) (CCC bend), nu(7) (CCP bend), 2nu(6), 2nu(7), 3nu(7), 4nu(7), nu(5) + nu(7), and nu(6) + nu(7). l-type resonance effects have been taken into account in the analysis of the spectra, so that the values of the anharmonicity constants x(L(66)), x(L(77)), x(L(57)), and x(L(67)) could be determined. The anharmonic interactions which couple the nu(4) state with nu(6) + nu(7), 2nu(6), and 4nu(7) have been also considered, yielding the unperturbed value of the alpha(4) vibration-rotation coupling constant.

Characterization of Electronic Spectra of Rhodium Monohydride and Monodeuteride

Emission spectra of two new electronic transitions of Pb(2) have been measured with a Fourier transform spectrometer in the 5200-8500 cm(-1) range. The emissions were observed from the afterglow of a microwave discharge in a mixture of Pb(x) vapor with hydrogen and argon carrier gas. By comparison with the results of ab initio calculations, the spectra are assigned to transitions from the lowest 1(g) and 1(u) states to the X(1)0(+)(g) ground state. The X(2)1(g) --> X(1)0(+)(g) transition between the fine-structure components of the X(3)Sigma(-)(g) ground state must be magnetic dipole in nature and thus is the first purely magnetic dipole fine-structure transition observed in the optical region. The 1(u) state is mostly a component of the low-lying inverted A(3)Pi(u) state and so is denoted A(2)1(u). Vibrational analyses have yielded the following electronic energies and vibrational constants for (208)Pb(2) (in cm(-1)): X(1)0(+)(g): omega(e) = 110.20(2), omega(e)x(e) = 0.341(2); X(2)1(g): T(e) = 5304.9(1), omega(e) = 120.57(7), omega(e)x(e) = 0.254(14); A(2)1(u): T(e) = 7817.5(2), omega(e) = 126.45(6), omega(e)x(e) = 0.399(11), where the numbers in parentheses are the standard deviations of the parameters.

Investigation of sandwiched gadolinium (III) complexes with tungstosilicates as potential MRI contrast agents

Two gadolinium-sandwiched complexes with tungstosilicates, K(13)[Gd(SiW(11)O(39))(2)] (Gd(SiW(11))(2)) and K(11)H(6)[Gd(3)O(3)(SiW(9)O(34))(2)] (Gd(3)(SiW(9))(2)), have been investigated by in vitro and in vivo experiments as potential contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). T(1)-relaxivity of Gd(SiW(11))(2)was 6.59 mM(-1).s(-1) in aqueous solution and 6.85 mM(-1).s(-1) in 0.725 mmol.L(-1) bovine serum albumin solution at 25 degrees C and 9.39 T, respectively. The corresponding T(1)-relaxivity of Gd(3)(SiW(9))(2) was 12.6 and 19.3 mM(-1).s(-1) per Gd, respectively. MRI for Sprague-Dawley rats showed longer and more remarkable enhancement in rat liver after i.v. injection of these two complexes: 39.4 +/- 3.9% and 57.4 +/- 11.6% within the first 30 min after injection, 31.2 +/- 2.6% and 39.9 +/- 7.6% in the next 60 min for Gd(SiW(11))(2) and Gd(3)(SiW(9))(2) at doses of 0.081 and 0.084 mmol Gd/kg, respectively. Our preliminary in vitro and in vivo study indicates that Gd(SiW(11))(2) and Gd(3)(SiW(9))(2) are favorable candidates for hepatic contrast agents for MRI. However, the two complexes exhibit higher acute toxicity and need to be modified and studied further before clinical use.     

Exclusive branching-fraction measurements of semileptonic tau decays into three charged hadrons, into phipi(-)nu tau, and into phi K(-)nu tau

Using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 342 fb(-1) collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC PEP-II electron-positron storage ring operating at a center-of-mass energy near 10.58 GeV, we measure B(tau(-)--> pi(-)pi(-)pi+nu(tau)(ex.K(S0))=(8.83+/-0.01+/-0.13)%, B(tau(-) -->K(-)pi(-)pi+nu tau(ex.K(S0))=(0.273+/-0.002+/-0.009)%, B(tau(-) -->K(-)pi(-)K+nu tau)=(0.1346+/-0.0010+/-0.0036)%, and B(tau(-) -->K(-)K(-)K+nu tau)=(1.58+/-0.13+/-0.12)x10;{-5}, where the uncertainties are statistical and systematic, respectively. These include significant improvements over previous measurements and a first measurement of B(tau(-) -->K(-)K(-)K+nu tau) in which no resonance structure is assumed. We also report a first measurement of B(tau(-) -->var phi(-)nu tau)=(3.42+/-0.55+/-0.25)x10(-5), a new measurement of B(tau(-) -->var phi K(-)nu tau)=(3.39+/-0.20+/-0.28)x10(-5) and a first upper limit on B(tau(-) -->K(-)K(-)K+nu tau(ex.var phi)).     

Spin-triplet superconductivity in UNi(2)Al(3) revealed by the (27)Al Knight shift measurement

We report (27)Al Knight shift ( (27)K) measurement on a single-crystal UNi(2)Al(3) that reveals a coexistence of superconductivity and a spin-density-wave (SDW) type of magnetic ordering ( T(SDW) = 4.5 K). The spin part of (27)K, (27)K(s), does not change down to 50 mK across the superconducting (SC) transition temperature T(c) approximately 0.9 K. In contrast with the isostructural compound UPd(2)Al(3) ( T(c) approximately 2 K), which was identified to be a spin-singlet d-wave superconductor, the behavior of (27)K strongly supports that UNi(2)Al(3) , like UPt(3) and Sr(2)RuO(4), belongs to a class of spin-triplet SC pairing state superconductors.     

Experimental investigation of the two-photon widths of the chi(c0) and the chi(c2) mesons

Using 12.7 fb(-1) of data collected with the CLEO detector at CESR, we observed two-photon production of the cc states chi(c0) and chi(c2) in their decay to pi(+)pi(-)pi(+)pi(-). We measured gamma(gammagamma)(chi(c))xB(chi(c)-->pi(+)pi(-)pi(+)pi(-)) to be 75+/-13(stat)+/-8(syst) eV for the chi(c0) and 6.4+/-1.8(stat)+/-0.8(syst) eV for the chi(c2), implying gamma(gammagamma)(chi(c0)) = 3.76+/-0.65(stat)+/-0.41(syst)+/-1.69(br) keV and gamma(gammagamma)(chi(c2)) = 0.53+/-0.15(stat)+/-0.06(syst)+/-0.22(br) keV. Also, cancellation of dominant experimental and theoretical uncertainties permits a precise comparison of gamma(gammagamma)(chi(c0))/gamma(gammagamma)(chi(c2)), evaluated to be 7.4+/-2.4(stat)+/-0.5(syst)+/-0.9(br), with QCD-based predictions.     

δ2H and δ18O of human body water: a GIS model to distinguish residents from non-residents in the contiguous USA

An understanding of the factors influencing the isotopic composition of body water is important to determine the isotopic composition of tissues that are used to reconstruct movement patterns of humans. The δ(2)H and δ(18)O values of body water (δ(2)H(bw) and δ(18)O(bw)) are related to the δ(2)H and δ(18)O values of drinking water (δ(2)H(dw) and δ(18)O(dw)), but clearly distinct because of other factors including the composition of food. Here, we develop a mechanistic geographical information system (GIS) model to produce spatial projections of δ(2)H(bw) and δ(18)O(bw) values for the USA. We investigate the influence of gender, food, and drinking water on the predicted values by comparing them with the published values. The strongest influence on the predicted values was related to the source of δ(2)H(dw) and δ(18)O(dw) values. We combine the model with equations that describe the rate of turnover to produce estimates for the time required for a non-resident to reach an isotopic equilibrium with a resident population.     

Roles of BiOCl(001) in face-to-faced BiOI(010)/BiOCl(001) heterojunction

In order to have an insight into the internal electric field (IEF) of BiOCl(001), we design a novel wide-spectrum responsive BiOI(010)/BiOCl(001) heterojunction composite by a facile method. The system could shield the photocatalysis of BiOCl(001) under visible light due to its large E_g (3.41 eV), thus specifying role of the BiOCl(001) in BiOI(010)/BiOCl(001). The XRD and TEM results show that the composites exhibit a coexistence of both tetragonal BiOI(010) and BiOCl(001) phases. The as-prepared BiOI(010)/BiOCl(001) samples exhibit higher BET surface area than those of BiOI(010) and BiOCl(001). The UV, visible, and simulated sunlight photocatalytic activities of composites for methyl orange (MO) were greatly enhanced compared to either pure BiOI(010) or BiOCl(001). Especially, under the visible light, an enhancement of photocatalytic activity (MO, acid fuchsin) was found for BiOI(010)/BiOCl(001), suggesting an IEF of BiOCl(001) plays a key role on the photo-generated carrier separation of BiOI(010). Specifying the IEF role of BiOCl(001) in BiOI(010)/BiOCl(001) is expected to inspire the further exploration, developing efficient photocatalysts with potential applications.
