Dynamic properties of angle-dependent high-order harmonic generation from coherently rotating molecules

High-order harmonic generation from coherently rotating N2 and O2 molecules has been observed for different alignment angles in a pump and probe experiment using femtosecond laser pulses. The results obtained are in excellent agreement with those calculated using a recently developed theory, which represent the characteristic properties predicted for angle-dependent harmonic generation. It is shown that polarization geometry and alignment distribution play essential roles in potential applications to probe electronic structure and dynamics of molecular systems.     

G-matrix effective interaction with the paris potential

An effective interaction is derived by fitting the oscillator matrix elements of the sum of the OBEP functions to the G-matrix elements derived from the Paris nucleon-nucleon interaction. The functional form, the mass dependence and the ambiguities of the effective interaction are discussed. For the application of the present effective interaction, we study the mass dependence of the G-matrices and estimate the Landau-Migdal parameter g′. We have obtained reasonable results for these cases.     

Relation between the Landau-Migdal interaction and the separable interaction

The Landau-Migdal interaction has been used widely in analyses of the quenching of spinisospin transitions. The separable interaction, on the other hand, has been used for studies of electric giant resonances and low-lying vibrational states, and recently for those of spin-isospin polarizations. The relation between these two interactions in the spin-isospin channel is studied. Quantitative comparison of these interactions in the spin-isospin L = 1 channel shows good correspondence between the nuclear matrix elements of the two types of interactions.     

Die Löslichkeit von aromatischen Verbindungen mit polaren Gruppen in Wasser

Zusammenfassung Die Löslichkeiten folgender Verbindungen wurden in Wasser bei 5°-Intervallen von 0° bis 40° bestimmt; Anilin, Mtrobenzol, Chlorbenzol,-Oxynaphthalin und-Nitronaphthalin. Aus diesen Ergebnissen wurden die thermodynamischen Parameter für den Lösungsprozeß der reinen flüssigen Verbindungen in Wasser berechnet. Das Resultat wurde mit Hilfe des Begriffs der Eisberge erklärt.Beim Benzol, Anilin und Chlorbenzol waren die Lösungswärmen negativ bei niedrigeren Temperaturen und wurden mit steigender Temperatur positiver. Dagegen traten beim Nitrobenzol,-Oxynaphthalin und-Nitronaphthalin stets die positiven Lösungswärmen auf. Dies sollte auf die großen intermolekularen Kräfte in der reinen Flüssigkeit zurückzuführen sein.     

Reaction of alkynyltrimethylsilanes with a hypervalent organoiodine compound: A new general synthesis of alkynyliodonium salts

New general methods for the synthesis of alkynyl(phenyl)iodonium tetrafluoroborate 2 from alkynyltrimethylsilanes 1 utilizing the combination of iodosylbenzene and triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate or boron trifluoride etherate were developed. The medium effect observed in the reaction was also discussed.     

Single-shot polarization-imaging digital holography based on simultaneous phase-shifting interferometry

We propose single-shot digital holography which is capable of simultaneously capturing both the information of multiple phase-shifted holograms and the distribution of the polarization. In this technique, a single image sensor records both the information required for phase-shifting interferometry and that of the polarization states of objects using an array of polarizers. The essence of the technique is the capability of imaging the distribution of the polarization of three-dimensional objects with a single-shot exposure by using the space-division multiplexing of holograms. The validity of the proposed technique was confirmed by the preliminary experiments.     

Electrospray droplet impact/secondary ion mass spectrometry: cluster ion formation

The electrospray droplets that are sampled through an orifice into the vacuum chamber are accelerated by 10 kV and impact on the stainless steel substrate. The mass and the kinetic energy of electrospray droplets are roughly estimated to be a few 10(6) u and approximately 10(6) eV, respectively. The molecular ion M(+.) and the protonated molecule [M+H](+) are observed as secondary ions for chrysene and coronene deposited on the metal substrate (no matrix used). The ionization may take place in the shock wave generated by the high-momentum coherent collision between the droplet projectile and the solid sample. Cluster ions of H(+)(H(2)O)(n) and CF(3)COO(-)(H(2)O)(n), with n up to approximately 150, were observed as secondary ions formed by the electrospray droplet impact ionization (EDI) for 10(-2) M trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) aqueous solution. This indicates that the charged droplets that collide with the metal substrate with the kinetic energy of approximately 10(6) eV do not vaporize completely but are disintegrated into many tiny microdroplets. The ion signal intensity anomalies (i.e. magic numbers) were observed for the cluster ions of H(3)O(+)(H(2)O)(n) and CF(3)COO(-)(H(2)O)(n) for 10(-2) M TFA aqueous solution and of Cs(+)(H(2)O)(n), I(-)(H(2)O)(n), Cs(+)(CsI)(n), and I(-)(CsI)(n) for 10(-2) M CsI aqueous solution.     

Constituent quark model for baryons with strong quark-pair correlations and non-leptonic weak transitions of hyperon

We study the roles of quark-pair correlations for baryon properties, in particular on non-leptonic weak decay of hyperons. We construct the quark wave function of baryons by solving the three body problem explicitly with confinement force and the short range attraction for a pair of quarks with their total spin being 0. We show that the existence of the strong quark-quark correlations enhances the non-leptonic transition amplitudes which is consistent with the data, while the baryon masses and radii are kept to the experiment.     

The effect of the presence of foreign salts on the formation of gaseous ions for electrospray and laser spray

The effect of the presence of foreign salts (NaCl, aerosol OT, tetra-n-hexylammonium bromide, and CH3COONH4) on the formation of gaseous ions for electrospray (ES) and laser spray (LS) was studied in the positive and negative modes of operations. The ion signals for amino acids show sudden decrease with the concentration of foreign salts greater than 10(-5) M for both ES and LS. When the surface-active counter ions were added, the signal intensities showed a marked decrease for both ES and LS. This may be due to the enrichment of the surface-active counter ions on the surface of the charged droplets. When CH3COONH4 was added to an aqueous solution of 10(-6) M lysozyme chloride, an increase of the signal intensities for (lysozyme+nH)n+ and a decrease in the values of n were observed. The decrease in n may be due to the salt formation of (lysozyme+nH)n+ with the negative acetate ion leading to the reduction of positive charges.
