Decay Analysis of Ge Isotopes Formed in Reactions Induced by Tightly and Loosely Bound Projectiles

The dynamical cluster-decay model (DCM) is employed to investigate the decay of ^68,70Ge^* compound nuclei formed respectively via tightly (⁴He) and loosely (⁶He) bound projectiles, using ⁶⁴Zn target. The study is carried out over a wide energy range (E_c.m.~5 MeV to 16 MeV) by including the quadrupole deformations (β2i) and optimum orientations (θ_i^opt) of the decaying fragments. The fusion cross-sections, obtained by adding various evaporation channels show nice agreement with the experimental data for ⁴He+⁶⁴Zn reaction. The contribution from competing compound inelastic scattering channel is also analyzed particularly for ⁶⁸Ge^* nucleus at above barrier energies. On the other hand, the decrement in the fusion cross-sections of ⁷⁰Ge^* nuclear system is addressed by presuming that ⁶⁵Zn ER is formed via two different modes:(i) the αn evaporation of ⁷⁰Ge^* nucleus, and (ii) 1n-evaporation of ⁶⁶Zn^* nuclear system, formed via breakup and 2n-transfer channels due to halo structure of the ⁶He projectile. Besides this, the suppression in 2np evaporation cross-sections suggests the contribution of another breakup and transfer process of ⁶He i.e. ⁴He+⁶⁴Zn. The contribution of breakup+transfer channels for ⁶He+⁶⁴Zn reaction is duly addressed by applying relevant energy corrections due to the breakup of " ⁶He" projectile into 2n and ⁴He. In addition to this, the barrier lowering, angular momentum and energy dependence effects are also explored in view of the dynamics of chosen reactions.     

羧甲基-β-1,3-葡聚糖对人肝癌HepG2细胞的放射增敏作用

本研究旨在探讨羧甲基-β-1,3葡聚糖（CMG）对人肝癌HepG2细胞X射线或12C6+离子束辐射敏感性的影响。首先用CCK-8法检测CMG对HepG2细胞的生长抑制情况,得到半数抑制浓度（IC50）为120.6μg/mL。用浓度为0.1×IC50的CMG预处理HepG2细胞24 h,再给予2 Gy X射线或12C6+离子束辐照（CMG+辐照组）;CMG未处理组直接接受2 Gy X射线或12C6+离子束辐照（辐照组）。对比分析辐照组和CMG+辐照组细胞的克隆存活、DNA损伤、凋亡与周期分布、细胞内活性氧（ROS）水平。发现:与X射线辐照组相比,相同剂量的12C6+离子辐照组克隆存活率更小,DNA损伤和周期阻滞更加严重,细胞凋亡率和细胞内ROS水平也更高。与单独X射线或12C6+离子束辐照组相比,CMG+辐照组克隆存活率明显降低,细胞凋亡率随辐照后CMG作用时间的延长而明显增加,CMG使辐照后细胞内ROS维持在一个较高的水平,同时CMG明显加重了单独辐照诱导的DNA损伤和周期阻滞。结果表明,与X射线相比,HepG2细胞对相同剂量的12C6+离子辐射更敏感;CMG可增加HepG2细胞对X射线或12C6+离子辐射的敏感性;CMG可能通过增加受照HepG2细胞内的ROS水平,加剧辐照诱导的DNA损伤,促进辐射诱导细胞凋亡而起到辐射增敏作用。This study aims to investigate the effect of carboxymethy-β-1, 3-glucan (CMG) on the sensitivity of human hepatoma HepG2 cells to X-rays or 12C6+ ions irradiation. First, the inhibitory effect of CMG on the growth of HepG2 cells was detected by CCK-8 assay, and the half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) was 120.6 μg/mL. HepG2 cells were pretreated with CMG at a concentration of 0.1×IC50 for 24 h and then irradiated with 2 Gy X-ray or 12C6+ ion beams (CMG + irradiation group). CMG untreated group was directly irradiated by 2 Gy X-rays or 12C6+ ions beam (irradiation group). The clone survival, DNA damage, cell apoptosis, cell cycle distribution, and intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels in irradiation group and CMG + irradiation group were comparatively analyzed. The results showed that the clone survival rate was lower, DNA damage and cycle arrest were more serious, and the rate of apoptosis and intracellular ROS levels were higher in 12C6+ ions irradiation group than those in the same dose of X-rays irradiation group. Compared with X-rays or 12C6+ ions irradiation group, the clone survival rate of CMG + irradiation group was significantly decreased, and the apoptosis rate significantly increased with the prolongation of CMG treatment post-irradiation; CMG maintained intracellular ROS at a higher level after irradiation, CMG also significantly aggravated radiation-induced DNA damage and cycle arrest. These results indicated that HepG2 cells were more sensitive to 12C6+ ions radiation than those at the same dose of X-rays. CMG increased the sensitivity of HepG2 cells to X-rays or 12C6+ ions irradiation by increasing intracellular ROS level, exacerbating radiation-induced DNA damage and promoting radiation-induced apoptosis in irradiated HepG2 cells.

重离子与固体表面相互作用时,会引起靶原子内壳层的电离,相应空穴退激过程中发射的X射线对研究重离子与固体表面的相互作用有着重要意义,可为相关研究提供基础数据.目前,在K和L壳层电离方面做了一些工作,而M壳层的研究较少,本文依托兰州重离子加速器国家实验室320 kV高电荷态离子综合研究平台,测量了不同能量的H~+, Ar~(8+), Ar~(12+), Kr~(13+)和Eu~(20+)离子与Au表面作用产生的特征X射线谱及其能移,计算了X射线的产额比值.结果表明:重离子引起了靶原子内壳层的多电离,多电离效应使Au的MX射线有不同程度的能移;多电离程度取决于入射离子能量、离子的原子序数和其外壳层的空穴数量.     

Quadrupole interactions in pionic and muonic tantalum and rhenium

The hyperfine splitting of pionic and muonic X-rays in natural Re has been studied using the known ratio (accurate to 1.6 parts in 10⁵) of the quadrupole moments of the two naturally occurring ¹⁸⁵Re and ¹⁸⁷Re isotopes. From the hyperfine splitting of the ⁵g → 4f and 4f → 3d pionic X-rays the effective quadrupole hyperfine constants were determined to be ¹⁸⁷A₂^eff(4f) = 1.163 ± 0.010 keV and ¹⁸⁷A₂^eff(3d) = 5.39 ± 0.63 keV, giving strong interaction quadrupole shifts ₂(4f) = 46 ± 10 eV and ₂(3d) = 1.3 ± 0.6 keV. The strong interaction monopole shifts ₀ and widths Γ₀ of the 5g, 4f and 3d levels have also been measured. For the two higher orbits, standard optical-potential calculations fit the measured shifts and widths quite well. The observed deeper-lying 3d state, however, has shifts and widths that differ by a factor of 2 or more from the predictions. From the measured quadrupole hyperfine constants of the 4f level we calculate the spectroscopic quadrupole moments to be ¹⁸⁷Q^μ(gm) = 2.09 ± 0.04 b, ¹⁸⁷Q^π = 2.07 ± 0.02 b, ¹⁸⁵Q^μ = 2.21 ± 0.04 b, and ¹⁸⁵Q^π = 2.1 addition, muonic X-rays from ¹⁸¹Ta were observed; using the same methods for determining the quadrupole moment as above, a value of ¹⁸¹Q^μ = 3.28 ± 0.06 b was obtained, in good agreement with earlier published data.     

Sonochemically assisted synthesis of zinc-doped maghemite

Nanoparticles of zinc-doped maghemite were prepared using ultrasonic radiation. As a precursor, a suspension of maghemite in an alkaline aqueous solution of zinc nitrate at pH 9 was sonicated. The zinc-doped maghemite nanoparticles were investigated by X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy, high-resolution electron microscopy (HREM) and SQUID magnetometry. The Mössbauer measurements, which cover the temperature range 4.2 K to room temperature, were acquired in zero field and an applied field of 5 T. The results show that by using ultrasound radiation, zinc Zn²⁺ can substitute for Fe³⁺ up to a composition close to zinc ferrite (ZnFe₂O₄), which has a random distribution of Fe³⁺ ions over both A and B sublattices in the spinel structure with an inversity parameter of δ = 0.322. This leads to a maximum saturation magnetization (M_s) of 64.1 emu/g at 300 K and 73.5 emu/g at 2 K.

A-site ordered perovskite CaCu_3Cu_2Ir_2O_(12-δ) with square-planar and octahedral coordinated Cu ions

A novel CaCu_3Cu_2Ir_2O_(12-δ) polycrystalline sample was synthesized at 8 GPa and 1373 K.Rietveld structural analysis shows that this compound crystallizes in an AA'_3B_4O_(12)-type A-site ordered perovskite structure with space group Im-3.Xray absorption spectra reveal a +2-charge state for both the square-planar and octahedral coordinated Cu ions,and the valence state of Ir is found to be about +5.Although the A-site Ca and the A'-site Cu~(2+) are 1:3 ordered at fixed atomic positions,the distribution of B-site Cu~(2+) and Ir~(5+) is disorderly.As a result,no long-range magnetic ordering is observed at temperatures down to 2 K.Electrical transport and heat capacity measurements demonstrate itinerant electronic behavior.The crystal structure is stable with pressure up to 35.7 GPa at room temperature.

Charge ordering in Eu3S4 determined by the valence-difference contrast of synchrotron X-ray diffraction

Synchrotron X-ray diffraction study for single crystals of Eu₃S₄ has revealed that a Th₃P₄-type structure transforms to a charge-ordered one at T_c=188.5 K. The crystal structures of Eu₃S₄ at T=300, 180 and 160 K were determined in the least-squares refinements with the Mo K intensity data. The valence-difference contrast method was applied at the L_II absorption edge of Eu, utilizing a large difference in anomalous scattering factors between Eu²⁺ and Eu³⁺. The cation distribution of Eu²⁺ and Eu³⁺ was determined by crystal-structure analyses based on the intensity data collected at two wavelengths of λ=1.6312 and 1.6298 Å.The least-squares structural refinements suggest that the most plausible atomic arrangement is [Eu³⁺]^4a[Eu²⁺Eu³⁺]^8dS₄. The charge-ordering scheme is that a half of Eu³⁺ ions occupy the whole 4a sites in the crystal structure, while the remaining half of Eu³⁺ ions mix with Eu²⁺ in the 8d sites. The scheme is also supported by the energy dependence of Bragg intensities for 400 and 004 reflections.     

Filippov type plasma focus as intense source of hard X-rays(Ex≃50 keV)

This paper evaluates the use of a plasma focus machine (Filippov type) as a pulsed intense source of hard X-rays. It is shown experimentally that discharging a capacitor bank of W=50 kJ in the new arrangement of the discharge parameters, one can deliver into the test cavity (volume of 6*10³ cm³) an average of Φ _x=8*10^-4 J/cm². The delivered energy fluence varies in the range of 2*10^-4 J/cm²⩽Φ_x⩽2.9*10^-3 J/cm², depending on the probe position. The X-ray energy spectra were established by the differential absorption method using thermo-luminescent detectors (time-integrated spectra) or plastic scintillators (time-resolved spectra). The average energy of X-ray photons is 40 keVx^av<50 keV (20 keV⩽E _x⩽170 keV) and remains quasi-constant during the main part of the pulse (~40 ns). The electron energy that can produce such bremsstrahlung radiation is in the range of 95 keV⩽E_e⩽170 keV. However, time-resolved experiments reveal that at each instant of time only one energy of electron beam occurs. The aforementioned radiation characteristics reveal new potentials for the plasma-focus machine for a variety of applications. Some insight into the physics behind production mechanism of quasi-monoenergetic relativistic-electron beams will be concurrently reviewed     

Study of strong interaction between Pt and TiO2 under oxidizing atmosphere

The strong interaction between Pt and TiO₂ under oxidizing atmosphere was studied by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Ar⁺ sputtering test. The results obtained show that under oxidizing atmosphere Pt⁰ atoms can thermally diffuse into TiO₂ lattice and be oxidized to Pt²⁺ to substitute for Ti⁴⁺ or form the interstitial ions at 673 K.     

Phase transitions and electrical properties of CsH(SO4)0.76(SeO4)0.24 mixed crystals

The study by X-ray diffraction, calorimetry, vibrational and impedance spectroscopy of CsH(SO₄)_0.76(SeO₄)_0.24 new solid solution is presented. Crystals of this composition undergo two phase transitions at T = 333 and 408 K. The last one at 408 K is a superionic-protonic transition (SPT) related to a rapid [HS(Se)O₄⁻] reorientation and fast H⁺ diffusion. A sudden jump in the conductivity plot confirms the presence of this transition. Above 408 K, this high temperature phase is characterized by high electrical conductivity (7 × 10^t-3 Ω⁻ cm⁻¹) and low activation energy (E_a < 0.3 eV).     

Luminescence of excitons and antisite defects in the phosphors based on garnet compounds

Intrinsic emission (excitons, anti-site defects (AD)) of oxides with garnet structure has been analysed by means of investigation of the time resolved luminescence and decay kinetic spectra under excitation by the synchrotron and X-ray radiation at 10–300 K of the model objects: undoped single crystals and single crystalline films of Y₃Al₅O₁₂ and Lu₃Al₅O₁₂ garnets which are characterised by the significant differences in concentrations of AD Y_Al³⁺ and Lu_Al³⁺-types as analogs of cation isoelectronic impurities.     

An examination of the initial oxidation of a uranium-base alloy (U–14.1 at.% Nb) by O2 and D2O using surface-sensitive techniques

The corrosion resistance of uranium is greatly enhanced by alloying with niobium. In this study the initial stages of corrosion of a specific uranium-base alloy (U–14.1 at.% Nb) by O₂ or D₂O have been examined using the surface specific techniques of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), thermal programmed desorption (TPD), static secondary-ion mass spectroscopy (SSIMS), and sputtered neutrals mass spectroscopy (SNMS). XPS studies of the U–14.1 at.% Nb surface following oxidation using O₂ at 300 K indicate production of a thin oxide overlayer of stoichiometric UO_2.0 intermixed with Nb₂O₅. The same stoichiometry is exhibited for uranium when the oxide is prepared at 500 K with O₂; although, niobium is much less oxidized exhibiting a mixture of NbO and Nb. Contrary to previous XPS literature, SNMS depth profiling studies reveal that oxidation by O₂ is much greater (as judged by oxide layer thickness) than that exhibited by D₂O. An oxide layer thickness of less than 20 Å was created using D₂O as an oxidant at 300 K with exposures >3500 L (oxide layers created from O₂ are significantly greater at much smaller exposures). Formation of a critical density of Nb₂O₅ is suggested to be responsible for the enhanced corrosion resistance by preventing diffusion of O⁻ (O²⁻) or OD⁻/OH⁻ into the oxide/metal interface region. The domains of stability of hydroxyl formation have also been followed using TPD, SSIMS and XPS. Maximal surface hydroxyl concentrations (Θ_rel=0.30) are obtained at a surface temperature of 175 K for these experimental conditions.
