Magnetically aligned phospholipid bilayers in weak magnetic fields: optimization,mechanism, and advantages for X-band EPR studies

Our lab is developing a spin-labeled EPR spectroscopic technique complementary to solid-state NMR studies to study the structure, orientation, and dynamics of uniaxially aligned integral membrane proteins inserted into magnetically aligned discotic phospholipid bilayers, or bicelles. The focus of this study is to optimize and understand the mechanisms involved in the magnetic alignment process of bicelle disks in weak magnetic fields. Developing experimental conditions for optimized magnetic alignment of bicelles in low magnetic fields may prove useful to study the dynamics of membrane proteins and its interactions with lipids, drugs, steroids, signaling events, other proteins, etc. In weak magnetic fields, the magnetic alignment of Tm(3+)-doped bicelle disks was thermodynamically and kinetically very sensitive to experimental conditions. Tm(3+)-doped bicelles were magnetically aligned using the following optimized procedure: the temperature was slowly raised at a rate of 1.9K/min from an initial temperature being between 298 and 307K to a final temperature of 318K in the presence of a static magnetic field of 6300G. The spin probe 3beta-doxyl-5alpha-cholestane (cholestane) was inserted into the bicelle disks and utilized to monitor bicelle alignment by analyzing the anisotropic hyperfine splitting for the corresponding EPR spectra. The phases of the bicelles were determined using solid-state 2H NMR spectroscopy and compared with the corresponding EPR spectra. Macroscopic alignment commenced in the liquid crystalline nematic phase (307K), continued to increase upon slowly raising the temperature, and was well-aligned in the liquid crystalline lamellar smectic phase (318K).

For a single point source, the spectra images obtained by separate components, the toroidal mirror, and the grazing incidence flat-field concave grating with varied line spaces are given respectively. The calculated spectral images of the single point source by the spectrometer are also given for comparison with measurements with different experimental alignments.     

Determination of the texture of arrays of aligned carbon nanotubes from the angular dependence of the X-ray emission and X-ray absorption spectra

The properties of materials containing carbon nanotubes depend on the degree of alignment and the internal structure of nanotubes. It is shown that the degree of misorientation of carbon nanotubes in samples can be evaluated from the measurements of the angular dependences of the carbon X-ray emission and carbon X-ray absorption spectra. The CK _α emission and CK X-ray absorption spectra of the array of multiwalled carbon nanotubes synthesized by catalytic thermolysis of a mixture of fullerene and ferrocene are measured. A comparison of the calculated model dependences of the relative intensities of the π and σ bands in the spectra with the experimental results makes it possible to evaluate the degree of misorientation of nanotubes in the sample and their internal texture.

The valence ionization spectra of ClCN, BrCN, NaCN and KCN are computed by Green's-function methods in the experimental geometric arrangement and compared with experimental spectra. The effect of substituents of differing electronegativity is studied by extending the computations to the linear arrangements for NaCN and KCN. The theoretical spectra of the isocyanides LiNC and NaNC are also computed for completeness.     

Rotational consequences of stable octupole deformation in nuclei

The characteristic features of high-spin spectra of octupole-deformed nuclei are demonstrated by means of Woods-Saxon-Bogolyubov cranking calculations. The rotational spectra of Ra and Th nuclei are studied. The experimental data suggests shape changes with increasing neutron number from N ? 130 (nearly spherical shapes) through N ? 134 (octupole-deformed shapes) to N ? 140 (well-deformed reflection-symmetric shapes). The octupole mixing between the high-j intruder states and normal-parity orbitals leads to specific patterns of quasiparticle spectra characterised by a quantum number referred to as simplex. The influence of octupole deformation on high-spin properties of nuclear spectra like spin alignment, band interaction, etc. are discussed.     

Investigation of the effect of a variety of pulse errors on spin I=1 quadrupolar alignment echo spectroscopy

We report on an analysis of a well known three-pulse sequence for generating and detecting spin I=1 quadrupolar order when various pulse errors are taken into account. In the situation of a single quadrupolar frequency, such as the case found in a single crystal, we studied the potential leakage of single and/or double quantum coherence when a pulse flip error, finite pulse width effect, RF transient or a resonance offset is present. Our analysis demonstrates that the four-step phase cycling scheme studied is robust in suppressing unwanted double and single quantum coherence as well as Zeeman order that arise from the experimental artifacts, allowing for an unbiased measurement of the quadrupolar alignment relaxation time, T(1Q). This work also reports on distortions in quadrupolar alignment echo spectra in the presence of experimental artifacts in the situation of a powdered sample, by simulation. Using our simulation tool, it is demonstrated that the spectral distortions associated with the pulse artifacts may be minimized, to some extent, by optimally choosing the time between the first two pulses. We highlight experimental results acquired on perdeuterated hexamethylbenzene and polyethylene that demonstrate the efficacy of the phase cycling scheme for suppressing unwanted quantum coherence when measuring T(1Q). It is suggested that one employ two separate pulse sequences when measuring T(1Q) to properly analyze the short time behavior of quadrupolar alignment relaxation data.

Experimental and theoretical study of the far-infrared spectra of HCl dissolved in liquid Ar,Kr, and Xe

New experimental results are reported on the relative absorption intensity distribution in the FIR spectra of HCl dissolved in liquefied Ar, Kr, and Xe at several temperatures along the liquid—vapour coexistence curve. These are treated further by applying a previously developed quantum-statistical spectral theory, which accounts for the line mixing and memory effects. Theoretical spectra are given in terms of the anisotropic potential time autocorrelation functions obtained from classical MD simulations using several empirical analytical potentials with density-adjusted well depths. Globally fair agreement between the theoretical and experimental spectra is demonstrated, except in the high frequency wings, where the theory underestimates the observed intensities. The choice of a particular radial form for the anisotropic HCl/RG potentials is found to be not critical for reproducing the experimental absorption profiles.     

Alignment delays in the N = Z nuclei (72)Kr, (76)Sr, and (80)Zr

The ground state rotational bands of the N = Z nuclei (72)Kr, (76)Sr, and (80)Zr have been extended into the angular momentum region where rotation alignment of particles is normally expected. By measuring the moments of inertia of these bands we have observed a consistent increase in the rotational frequency required to start pair breaking, when compared to neighboring nuclei. (72)Kr shows the most marked effect. It has been widely suggested that these "delayed alignments" arise from np-pairing correlations. However, alignment frequencies are very sensitive to shape degrees of freedom and normal pairing, so the new experimental observations are still open to interpretation.     

Stimulated Raman rotational photoacoustic spectroscopy using a quartz tuning fork and femtosecond excitation

Molecular alignment of linear molecules (O₂, N₂, CO₂ and CO) is measured photoacoustically in the gas phase. The rotational excitation is accomplished using a simple femtosecond stimulated Raman excitation scheme, employing two femtosecond pulses with variable delay between the pulses. Molecular alignment is determined directly by measuring the energy dumped into the gas by quartz-enhanced photoacoustic spectroscopy (QEPAS), utilizing a quartz tuning fork as a sensitive photoacoustic transducer. The experimental results demonstrate for the first time the use of a tuning fork for resonant photoacoustic detection of Raman spectra excited by femtosecond double pulses and match both simulation and literature values.     

Analysis and experimental concepts of the vibrating wire alignment technique

The vibrating wire alignment technique is a method which, by measuring the spatial distribution of a magnetic field, can achieve very high alignment accuracy. The vibrating wire alignment technique can be applied to fiducializing magnets and the alignment of accelerator straight section components, and it is a necessary supplement to conventional alignment methods. This article gives a systematic summary of the vibrating wire alignment technique, including vibrating wire model analysis, system frequency calculation, wire sag calculation, and the relation between wire amplitude and magnetic induction intensity. On the basis of this analysis, this article outlines two existing alignment methods, one based on magnetic field measurement and the other on amplitude and phase measurements. Finally, some basic experimental issues are discussed.     

原子核的高自旋态

本文回顾了原子核高自旋态研究工作的进展情况。七十年代初回弯现象的发现对原子核集体运动的研究方向发生了深刻影响。目前已公认正确的回弯机制是Stephens-Simon提出的带交叉。现正广泛使用转动势场中的单粒子运动(推广的Nilsson模型)来分析高自旋态的性质。由于原子核高速旋转而产生的一系列新的问题,包括原子核超导性的破坏、粒子角动量沿核集体运动方向的顺排、形变及壳结构的改变等,正引起人们广泛注意。理论预言,极高速旋转的原子核会出现扁旋转椭球形变和所谓“晕坑”,但实验上尚未观测到。从实验分析发现了Coriolis减弱问题,其原因仍是一个未解决的难题。     

The 4d auger,coster-kronig,and recombination spectra of the lanthanides

A complete set of electron-excited 4d-basedAuger spectra of the lanthanide metals from lanthanum to lutetium (except the unstable promethium) is presented, in both differential and integral forms. It is believed that the set is more representative of clean surfaces of the lanthanides than any published hitherto. With the help of binding energy and electron loss measurements made in this laboratory and elsewhere, values of the various possible Auger, Coster—Kronig, and direct recombination transition energies are calculated, and for each transition a “centre of gravity” is derived based on relative intensities of final state multiplets, electron occupation of core levels, etc. By using arguments based on trends in the spectra across the series, on theoretically and experimentally derived values of U_eff for the difference 4fⁿ⁺¹→4f^n?1, and on plausibility, values of U_eff for 4fⁿ→ 4f^n?2 as well as for the other final state hole pair configurations are allocated. The relaxed transition energies so calculated are then compared with the experimental energies, from which it is possible in most cases to make assignment of the spectral features to the various transitions. As a result it is found that there are some significant disagreements with the theoretical rates of McGuire for lanthanide free atoms. The reasons for these disagreements are discussed, and an empirical model based on effective 4f and 5d populations and on the restrictions imposed by spin alignment is used to resolve the differences qualitatively.     

Intensity-independent molecular rotational decoherence lifetimes measured with mean wavelength shifts of femtosecond pulses

We report on an experimental investigation on the dynamic decoherence process of molecular rotational wavepackets during femtosecond laser filamentation based on time-dependent mean wavelength shifts of a weak probe pulse. Details of periodic revival structures of transient alignment can be readily obtained from the measured shifted spectra due to the periodic modulation of the molecular refractive index. Using the method, we measured decoherence lifetimes of molecular rotational wavepackets in N_2 and O_2 under different experimental conditions. Our results indicate that decoherence lifetimes of molecular rotational wavepackets are primarily determined by the relative population of rotational states in the wave packet and intermolecular collisions,rather than the focusing intensity.
