Single-electron-capture cross sections for 0.4–5.0 keV He+ ions incident on alkali-vapor targets

Total cross sections for single-electron capture by He⁺ ions in vapor targets of Cs, Rb, K and Na have been determined in the energy range 0.4–5.0 keV. The energy dependence of the cross-section curves is very similar for all the targets. The cross sections for all the targets are maximum at about the same energy, 1.5 keV. Comparison is made with other reported experimental and theoretical results.     

Paths and edge-connectivity in graphs

Mader proved that for every k-edge-connected graph G (k ≥ 4), there exists a path joining two given vertices such that the subgraph obtained from G by deleting the edges of the path is (k - 2)-edge-connected. A generalization of this and a sufficient condition for existance of 3, 4, or 5 terminus k edge-disjoint paths in graphs are given.     

Mechanics of a particle near the center of a rotating ring

The equations of motion of a test particle moving near the center of a massive rotating ring are derived up to the post-post-Newtonian order of approximation, by using the metric tensor for many body system which is Minkowskian at spatial infinity. Logarithmic divergences due to self-interaction of the ring appear in the equations of motion. These divergences can be removed by the procedure which is similar to the renormalization method in particle physics. In the equations of motion there appears a force directing to the rotation axis and depending on the angular velocity of the ring. This force vanishes when the magnitude of the gravitational constant times the mass of the ring divided by the radius of the ring is about one tenth of the square of the velocity of light. Under this condition it is shown that the relative magnitude of the Coriolis force to the centrifugal force in the equations of motion agrees with the expected one from the equations of motion in a rotating reference frame.     

Stereocontrolled synthesis of 7-hydroxy- and 7-acetoxy-PGI2: New stable PGI2 analogues

Stable analogues of PGI₂, 7-hydroxy- and 7-acetoxy-PGI₂, were synthesized from protected PGI₂ methyl ester $\text{1b}$via sulfoxides $\text{6a}$, $\text{6b}$ through stereocontrolled sulfoxide-sulfenate rearrangement.     

A glycine receptor is involved in the organization of swimming movements in an invertebrate chordate

Background  

Rhythmic motor patterns for locomotion in vertebrates are generated in spinal cord neural networks known as spinal Central Pattern Generators (CPGs). A key element in pattern generation is the role of glycinergic synaptic transmission by interneurons that cross the cord midline and inhibit contralaterally-located excitatory neurons. The glycinergic inhibitory drive permits alternating and precisely timed motor output during locomotion such as walking or swimming. To understand better the evolution of this system we examined the physiology of the neural network controlling swimming in an invertebrate chordate relative of vertebrates, the ascidian larva Ciona intestinalis.
