Ether drift experiments and electromagnetic momentum

Propagation of Aharonov-Bohm matter waves and light waves in moving media is characterized by the interaction electromagnetic momentum. Thus, recent models of light propagation in moving rarefied media justify and call for an optical experiment of the Mascart-Jamin type, capable of testing the modern interpretations of ether drift experiments.     

Fluctuation analysis of meteo-marine data

We study long-term behaviour of air temperature, wave heights and wind speed time series recorded for the period 1993–1997 at a meteo-marine station located in the Adriatic Sea. The scaling analysis shows that fluctuations of air temperature display long-range autocorrelations, while those for wave heights show a more complex behaviour, crossing over from a persistent regime at intermediate time scales (up to about 20 days) to an anti-persistence behaviour at longer times. Furthermore, the crosscorrelations of their records are found to be large, with a covariance of about -0.3 (indicating anti-crosscorrelations) within the full 5-years period, giving a quantitative measure of the actual coupling between the two data sets. Wind speed fluctuations are found to be strongly crosscorrelated (about 0.6) with those of wave heights, indicating as expected that wind is the main driving force for wave height fluctuations.

Fields and States of Hadrons Extended in the Microscopic Finslerian Space-Time

From a consideration of extended hadron structure in the microlocal anisotropic space-time, the mesonic and baryonic states with their internal quantum numbers such as strangeness, hypercharge, baryon number are constructed. The SU ₃ baryonic multiplets of baryons with spin (j + ) are generated from the SU ₃ mesonic multiplets of mesons with spin j. The meson–baryon mass differences are also derived here. The composite particle field of hadrons for the macroscopic space-time are obtained. In particular, the meson field and one particle meson state are considered here. These one particle hadron states of the macroscopic space-time also possess the quantum numbers (strangeness, hypercharge, etc.) which are regarded as the manifestations of the anisotropic nature of the microlocal space-time. The composite fields constructed here are usable in the reduction formulae of the S-matrix approach for strong interaction.     

Measurement of the spin structure function <Emphasis Type="Italic">g</Emphasis><Subscript>1</Subscript> at HERMES

New, preliminary results are presented for the deuteron structure function g ₁ ^d , where the kinematic range has been extended to 0.0021<x<0.85 and Q ²>0.1 GeV², to include 7 new data points at low x with respect to previously released results. Within the present statistics, the structure function ratio g ₁ ^d /F ₁ ^d is found to be independent of Q ².     

Oxidizing species in the mechanism of cytochrome P450

This review discusses the mechanisms of oxygen activation by cytochrome P450 enzymes, the possible catalytic roles of the various iron--oxygen species formed in the catalytic cycle, and progress in understanding the mechanisms of hydrocarbon hydroxylation, heteroatom oxidation, and olefin epoxidation. The focus of the review is on recent results, but earlier work is discussed as appropriate. The literature through to February 2002 is surveyed, and 175 referenced are cited.     

Structural Characterization of Some Acylisoxazolone Extractants

From IR, UV, ³¹P, ¹H, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopic data, it is shown that the three 3-phenyl-4-acyl-isoxazol-5-ones, HPXI (HPBI, HPTI, and HPtbBI with acyl-, benzoyl-, toluoyl-, and para-(tert-butyl)benzoyl-, respectively), promising extractants of actinides, appear under the same major tautomeric forms, both in the solid and in solutions in various solvents: the diketo-enamine form in methanol, a -ketoenolic form in the solid, and in chloroform, benzene, and toluene. The radiocrystallographic structures of HPTI and HPtbBI have been determined. They appear as 3-phenyl-4-(-hydroxybenzylidene)isoxazol-5-ones, forming intramolecular chelates through H-bonds. -Aryl interactions might influence the relative positions of the -ketoenolic oxygen atoms and, hence, the bite angle and the cone angle of these ligands. Spectroscopic data give evidence of strong TOPO–HPXI interactions (TOPO: tri-n-octylphosphine oxide) in toluene, of the same order of magnitude for the three acylisoxazolones, in the order: HPBI > HPTI > HPtbBI.     

1H NMR detection of immobilized water molecules within a strong distal hydrogen-bonding network of substrate-bound human heme oxygenase-1

Solution 1H NMR is used to probe the environments of the donor protons of eight strong hydrogen bonds on the distal side of the heme substrate in the cyanide-inhibited, substrate-bound complex of human heme oxygenase, hHO. It is demonstrated that significant magnetization transfer from the bulk water signal to the eight labile protons does not result from chemical exchange, but from direct nuclear Overhauser effect due to the dipolar interaction of these labile protons with "ordered" water molecules. The enzyme labile proton to water proton distances are estimated at approximately 3 A. It is proposed that the role of the strong hydrogen-bonding network is to immobilize numerous water molecules which both stabilize the activated hydroperoxy species and funnel protons to the active site.     

Antibunching in the emission of a single tetrachromophoric dendritic system

The photophysics of a dendrimer containing four chromophores are investigated at the single-molecule level. First, the multichromophoric character of single dendrimers' absorption is probed by modulating the linear polarization of the excitation beam. Subsequently, using circular polarization, the same dendrimers are excited, and their fluorescence transients are recorded. Using pulsed excitation in combination with the classical Hanbury-Brown and Twiss coincidence setup the presented data demonstrate that efficient singlet-singlet annihilation ensures that always only one photon is emitted even when several excitations are generated in an individual multichromophoric molecule.
