1H(17F,α)14O反应截面测量

14O （α,p）17F是天体X射线暴中重要的突破反应。本工作通过厚靶方法测量其逆反应1H （17F,α）14O的反应截面来研究这一关键反应。本实验工作是在日本东京大学原子核科学研究中心（CNS）的低能次级束流线（CRIB）上完成的,后续的扣除本底实验是在兰州放射性束流线（RIBLL1）上完成的。CRIB实验是通过2H （16O,n）17F转移反应产生17F次级束,经过CRIB分离提纯之后,利用该次级束轰击氢气靶。在氢气靶后布置了三套望远镜探测器系统,用以探测不同实验角度的反冲α粒子,在数据处理的过程中经过动力学重构后得到了1H （17F,α）14O反应在质心系能区E_c.m.=2.7~3.4 MeV的反应截面。实验结果在3 MeV以上的高能区与前人的薄靶实验数据是一致的,在低能区本工作获得了新的实验数据,倾向于支持干涉相消的理论预言结果。The 14O(α, p)17F reaction is one of the important breakout reactions in type I X-ray burst. This work reported a new cross section measurement of its reverse reaction of 1H(17F,α)14O. The experiment was performed using the CNS radioactive ion beam separator (CRIB), located at the Center for Nuclear Study (CNS), the University of Tokyo. The sequent background measurement was carried out at Radioactive Beam Line in Lanzhou (RIBLL1). 17F beam was produced via the transfer reaction of 2H(16O, n)17F, subsequently separated and purified by CRIB and bombarded a thick hydrogen H₂ gas target. The recoiling α particles were measured by three △E-E silicon telescopes at three different angles. The total cross sections of 1H(17F,α)14O have been derived at E_c.m.=2.7~3.4 MeV based on an isotropic angular distribution assumption. Our results are consistent with the previous ones in the energy region of E_c.m.>3 MeV, and we also obtained some new data in the low energy region, which partly support the destructive interference between the direct and resonant reaction mechanism predicted by the theory.     

Highly Selective Synthesis of Iridium(III) Metalla[2]catenanes through Component Pre‐Orientation by π⋅⋅⋅π Stacking

A series of molecular metalla[2]catenanes featuring Cp*Ir vertices have been prepared by the template‐free, coordination‐driven self‐assembly of dinuclear iridium acceptors and 1,5‐bis[2‐(4‐pyridyl)ethynyl]anthracene donors. The metalla[2]catenanes were formed by using a strategically selected linker type that is capable of participating in sandwich‐type π–π stacking interactions. In the solid state, the [2]catenanes adopt two different configurations depending on the halogen atoms at the dinuclear metal complex bridge. Altering the solvent or the concentration, as well as the addition of guest molecules, enabled controlled transformations between metalla[2]catenanes and tetranuclear metallarectangles.     

C3‐Symmetric Assemblies from Trigonal Polycarbene Ligands and MI Ions for the Synthesis of Three‐Dimensional Polyimidazolium Cations

Metallosupramolecular poly‐NHC‐metal assemblies were prepared from trigonal hexakis (H₆‐ 1 a (PF₆)₆ and H₆‐ 1 b (PF₆)₆) or nonakis (H₉‐ 3 (BF₄)₉) imidazolium salts and Ag₂O. Complexes [Ag₆( 1 a )₂](PF₆)₆ and [Ag₆( 1 b )₂](PF₆)₆ are built from six Ag⁺ ions sandwiched between two trigonal hexacarbene ligands with an inner and an outer NHC donor in each of the three ligand arms. The metal atoms are arranged in two triangles. The hexakis‐NHC ligands bear cinnamic ester groups at the outlying NHC donors, used in postsynthetic [2+2] cycloaddition reactions linking two hexakis‐NHC ligands by three cyclobutane units to give complexes [Ag₆( 2 a )](PF₆)₆ and [Ag₆( 2 b )](PF₆)₆ bearing a dodecacarbene ligand. From the related nonakisimidazolium salt H₉‐ 3 (BF₄)₉, complex [Ag₉( 4 )](BF₄)₉ bearing an octadecacarbene ligand was obtained. Removal of the template metals yielded very large, stable, polyimidazolium cations with 12 or 18 internal imidazolium groups.     

Strain-dependent deformation behavior in nanocrystalline metals

The deformation behavior as a function of applied strain was studied in a nanostructured Ni-Fe alloy using the in situ synchrotron diffraction technique. It was found that the plastic deformation process consists of two stages, undergoing a transition with applied strain. At low strains, the deformation is mainly accommodated at grain boundaries, while at large strains, the dislocation motion becomes probable and eventually dominates. In addition, current results revealed that, at small grain sizes, the 0.2% offset criterion cannot be used to define the macroscopic yield strength any more. The present study also explained the controversial observations in the literature.     

The use of high-throughput synthesis and purification in the preparation of a directed library of adrenergic agents

A library of potential agonists and antagonists for adrenergic receptors was prepared using high-throughput solution-phase parallel synthesis. Traditional solution-phase reductive amination reactions followed by rapid purification by ion exchange chromatography yielded products with near-analytical purity. An array of ketones and amines, arranged in an 8 × 12 matrix, were combined to form 96 individual compounds. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Yields of O2(1Σg+) and O2(1Δg) in the H + O2 reaction system,and the quenching of O2(1Σg+) by atomic hydrogen

The generation of metastable O₂(¹Σg⁺) and O₂(¹Δg) in the H + O₂ system of reactions was studied by the flow discharge chemiluminescence detection method. In addition to the O₂(¹Σg⁺) and O₂(¹Δg) emissions, strong OH(v = 2) → OH(v = 0), OH(v = 3) → OH(v = 1), HO₂(²A′₀₀₀) → HO₂(²A″₀₀₀), HO₂(²A′₀₀₁) → HO₂(²A″₀₀₀), and H O₂(²A″₂₀₀) → HO₂(²A″₀₀₀) emissions were detected in the H + O₂ system. The rate constants for the quenching of O₂(¹Σg⁺) by H and H₂ were determined to be (5.1 ± 1.4) × 10^?13 and (7.1 ± 0.1) × 10^?13 cm³ s^?1, respectively. An upper limit for the branching ratio to produce O₂(¹Σg⁺) by the H + HO₂ reaction was calculated to be 2.1%. The contributions from other reactions producing singlet oxygen were investigated.     

M-harmonic Besovp-spaces and Hankel operators in the Bergman space on the ball in ℂ n

In this paper, we characterize the Hardy class ofM-harmonic functions on the unit ballB in ℂ ⁿ in terms of the Berezin transform. We define and study the Besovp-spaces ofM-harmonic functions. For anM-harmonic symbolf, we give various criteria for the Hankel operatorsH _f andH _f to be bounded, compact or in the Schatten-von-Neumann classS _p . These criteria establish a close relationship among Besovp-spaces, Berezin transform, the invariant Laplacian, and Hankel operators on the unit ballB.
