Simultaneous determination of propranolol and pindolol by synchronous spectrofluorimetry

A completely automated method to determine the most common parameters in cured meat products is proposed. The approach to full automation is based on the coupling of a robotic station for development of preliminary operations (namely weighing of the sample, grinding, leaching, filtration and transport to the aspiration zone) and a continuous unsegmented manifold for derivatisation and spectrophotometric monitoring of the reaction coloured products. This assembly works in an unattended fashion thus eliminating the bottleneck produced by the determination of these parameters in routine laboratories. The good agreement between results obtained by the proposed method and those from conventional methods for target analytes confirms its excellent performance and usefulness.     

Diffractive production of ρ-mesons and of ρπ-systems by neutrinos and antineutrinos on protons

Evidence is presented for diffractive production of -mesons and of -systems invp and chargedcurrent interactions. In the (anti-)neutrino energy range 10 GeVE _v <60 gev=" the=" cross=" sections=" for=" diffractive="> and diffractive production are found to be (0.64±0.14 (stat.)±0.08 (syst.))% and (0.28±0.08 (stat.)±0.04 (syst.))% of the charged-current cross section. The diffractive signal is consistent with being entirely due to diffractivea ₁ production. However, the data cannot distinguish between diffractivea ₁ and diffractive nonresonant production. The experimental distributions ofW, Q ²,x _Bj andy _Bj for diffractive and events are consistent with model predictions.     

Mixing automorphisms of compact groups and a theorem of Schlickewei
