Investigation of (3He,3He)- and (3He,t)-reactions on10B,11B and13C

The³He-elastic scattering and the (³He,t)-reactions on¹⁰B,¹¹B and¹³C were studied. Excitation functions for the reactions¹⁰B(³He,t)¹⁰C and¹¹B(³He,t)¹¹C were measured at incident energies between 11 and 17 MeV. All angular distributions were taken at 14 MeV³He-energy. From an optical model analysis of the³He-elastic scattering data the parameters of the optical potentials were determined. Best fits were obtained using surface peaked potentials. The (³He,t)-reactions were interpreted in terms of a microscopic model, which, in general, gave a good account of the data. Corrections due to nonlocality effects were included in the calculations. A satisfactory agreement of the predicted and the measured cross sections required an effective nucleon-nucleon interaction of the Yukawa form (α^?1=1.2 fm). Using a Serber exchange mixture the isospindependent- and the spin-isopin-dependent strength parameters of the potential were deduced to beVτ=21.4±2.3 MeV andV _{σ τ}=19.5 ± 2.7 MeV, respectively.     

Unification of gravitation and electromagnetism with B(3)

The experimentally supported existence of the Evans Vigier field.B ⁽³⁾,in vacuo implies that the gravitational and electromagnetic fields can be unified within the same Ricci tensor, being respectively its symmetric and antisymmetric components in vacuo. The fundamental equations of motion of vacuum electromagnetism are developed in this framework.     

Stability,electronic structure,and optical properties of lead-free perovskite monolayer Cs3B2X9(B=Sb,Bi;X=Cl,Br,I)and bilayer vertical heterostructure Cs3B2X9/Cs3B’2X9(B,B’=Sb,Bi;X=Cl,Br,I)

The lead-free perovskites Cs₃B₂X₉(B=Sb,Bi;X=Cl,Br,I)as the popular photoelectric materials have excellent optical properties with lower toxicity.In this study,we systematically investigate the stable monolayer Cs₃B₂X₉and bilayer vertical heterostructure Cs₃B₂X₉/Cs3B02X9(B,B0=Sb,Bi;X=Cl,Br,I)via first-principles simulations.By exploring the electrical structures and band edge positions,we find the band gap reduction and the band type transition in the heterostructure Cs₃B₂X₉/Cs3B02X9 due to the charge transfer between layers.Furthermore,the results of optical properties reveal light absorption from the visible light to UV region,especially monolayer Cs3Sb2I9 and heterostructure Cs3Sb2I9/Cs3Bi2I9,which have absorption peaks in the visible light region,leading to the possibility of photocatalytic water splitting.These results provide insights for more two-dimensional semiconductors applied in the optoelectronic and photocatalytic fields.     

Electronic structure,physico-chemical,linear and non linear optical properties analysis of coronene, 6B-, 6N-, 3B3N- substituted C24H12 using RHF,B3LYP and wB97XD methods

In this work we have investigated the effects of substituting carbon atoms with B, N and BN on the electronic structure, physico-chemical, linear and non linear optical properties of Coronene (C24H12) using HF and DFT methods. We have calculated total electronic energy E₀, zero point vibrational energy ZPVE, the enthalpy H, entropy S, molar heat capacity at constant volume C_v, ionization potential IP, electron affinity EA, hardness \(\kappa\), softness \(\vartheta\), electronegativity EN, dipole moment µ, average polarizability \(< \alpha >\), anisotropy \(\Delta \alpha\), the first molecular hyperpolarizability β_mol, second order hyperpolarizability \(\gamma_{av}\), HOMO–LUMO Energy gap E_gap, work function E_F, refractive index n, susceptibility χ, dielectric constant ε and molar refractivity MR of coronene (C24H12), the 6B-, 6N- and 3B3N- substitute-doped C24H12 C18B6H12 C18N6H12 and C18B3N3H12. The E_gap values of the molecules are between 0.91 and 2.36 eV. We observed that β_mol changes slightly when C24H12 is doped with either 6B or 6N even though their β_mol values are too small. However, by doping C24H12 with both 3B and 3N, creating a strong donor–acceptor system, a very large increase in µ and β_mol was found for C18B3N3H12. This study was done using RHF, B3LYP and wB97XD methods with the cc-pVDZ basis set. The studies have shown that doping decreases some of the above properties significantly while some increases significantly compared to pure coronene, suggesting that 6B-, 6N-, and 3B3N-doped Coronene as serious candidates for electronics, optoelectronics and photonic devices.     

Frequency dependence of the quasi-soft Raman-active modes in rotationally distorted R(3+)B(3+)O3 perovskites (R(3+)-rare earth, B(3+)=Al, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Ga)

The structural data and Raman spectra of distorted R(3+)B(3+)O(3) perovskites (R(3+)-rare earth, B(3+)=Al, Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Ga) with BO(6) octahedral tilts were critically reviewed in order to obtain the frequency (ω) versus BO(6) tilt angle (α) dependence of the quasi-soft vibrational modes. It was found that the relation ω = ?α is satisfied in a good approximation for each RBO(3) family with fixed B atom, despite the different spatial tilt orientations for compounds of the same series with either orthorhombic Pnma or rhombohedral R ?3c structure. The dependence of the proportionality coefficient ? on the averaged octahedral distance can be described using different functions (power, linear and exponential ones). The established dependences can be used for analysis of Raman data and heuristic prediction of structural second-order transitions.     

The photomagneton B(3) and longitudinal ghost field B(3) of electromagnetism

The concepts are introduced of the longitudinal ghost fieldB ⁽³⁾ and photomagnetonB ⁽³⁾) of electromagnetism:B ⁽³⁾ = B⁽³⁾ =B⁽⁰⁾/, whereB ⁽⁰⁾ is the magnetic flux density amplitude and the angular momentum operator of a photon beam. The major implication is that the individual photon hasthree degrees of polarization, the longitudinal one being accompanied by the ghost fieldB ⁽³⁾ which has no energy or linear momentum, and is generated from the angular momentum of the photon.     

Spectroscopy of 13B, 14B, 15B and 16B using multi-nucleon transfer reactions

New information has been obtained on excited states of the neutron-rich boron isotopes ¹⁴B, ¹⁵B and ¹⁶B, using the reactions ¹²C(¹⁴C,¹²N)¹⁴B, ¹³C(¹⁴C,¹²N)¹⁵B and ¹⁴C(¹⁴C,¹²N)¹⁶B at about 24 MeV/A. The mass excess of ¹⁶B has been measured for the first time, it is 37.08(6) MeV. This means that ¹⁶B is unbound by only 0.04(6) MeV. Furthermore, the nucleus ¹³B has been investigated with the four reactions ¹⁶O(¹⁴C,¹⁷F), ¹²C(¹⁴C,¹³N), ¹²C(¹³C,¹²N) and ¹²C(¹⁵N,¹⁴O). Choosing different target-projectile combinations, it was possible to populate states with different selectivity. New states are observed in ¹³B at excitation energies above the threshold for two-neutron decay. Received: 27 December 1999 / Revised version: 11 February 2000

Penguins,trees and final state interactions in B decays in broken SU3

The availability of data on B_s decays to strange quasi-two-body final states, either with or without charmonium opens new possibilities for understanding different contributions of weak diagrams and in particular the relative contributions of tree and penguin diagrams. Corresponding B_d and B_s decays to charge conjugate final states are equal in the SU(3) symmetry limit and the dominant SU(3) breaking mechanism is given by ratios of CKM matrix elements. Final State Interactions effects should be small, because strong interactions conserve C and should tend to cancel in ratios between charge conjugate states. Particularly interesting implications of decays into final states containing η and η′ are discussed.     

The adhesion molecule Necl-3/SynCAM-2 localizes to myelinated axons,binds to oligodendrocytes and promotes cell adhesion

Background  

Cell adhesion molecules are plasma membrane proteins specialized in cell-cell recognition and adhesion. Two related adhesion molecules, Necl-1 and Necl-2/SynCAM, were recently described and shown to fulfill important functions in the central nervous system. The purpose of the work was to investigate the distribution, and the properties of Necl-3/SynCAM-2, a previously uncharacterized member of the Necl family with which it shares a conserved modular organization and extensive sequence homology.     

Prediction of γ‐B28 ELNES with comparison to α‐B12

Using ab initio techniques we have calculated the electron energy loss near edge structure (ELNES) of a new high pressure phase of boron (γ‐B₂₈) and the structurally similar allotrope, α‐B₁₂. The total ELNES spectra are presented as weighted sums of the site specific spectra of the constituent non‐equivalent B atoms. The five different non‐equivalent B sites in γ‐B₂₈ all show rich ELNES spectra and their similarities and differences to the simpler α‐B₁₂ case are detailed. (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Nonlinear optical properties of (B3O7)5- and (B3O6)3- groups

3 O₅ (LBO) crystal has been studied by using the bond valence theory of complex crystals. Chemical bond parameters and linear and nonlinear optical (NLO) properties of each type of constituent chemical bonds are quantitatively determined. Because of the different crystal structure characteristics of LBO from those of β-BaB₂O₄ (BBO), the two anionic groups, (B₃O₇)^5- in LBO and (B₃O₆)^3- in BBO, play different roles in contributions to their own total NLO tensor coefficients of LBO and BBO, respectively. By comparison, we find that planar (B₃O₆)^3- groups are the ideal structure model, leading to little cancellation of contributions of each kind of bond in these groups, and this gives us a useful guide to design new NLO materials in the future.

Nucleon-nucleon interaction and some reactions with3He,3H

Experimental measurements and theoretical calculations are discussed for theA = 3 nuclei. With the sum rule formalism, the need for a better bound state is investigated. Some reactions on³He and³H like electron scattering, photodisintegration,-capture involve transitions to the continuum but with the work developed by Merkuriev, Gignoux and Laverne (1976) some progress is possible. The same realisticNN interactions used for calculating the bound state wave function of the three nucleon system are incorporated in the scattering equations based on the Faddeev approach.Presented at the symposium Mesons and Light Nuclei, Bechyn, Czechoslovakia, May 27–June 1, 1985.     

Low-energy cross sections for11B(p, 3α)

The¹¹B(p, 3α) reaction has been investigated in the energy range fromE _c.m.=22 to 1100 keV with the use of either a proton beam and a¹¹B solid target or with the use of a¹¹B heavy ion beam incident on a hydrogen jet gas target. The reaction mechanisms have been studied via kinematically complete coincidence measurements showing that the reaction proceeds predominantly by a sequential decay via⁸Be. The measurement of absolute cross sections,α-angular distributions and excitation functions is reported. The astrophysicalS(E) factor has been described by means of an empirical fit to the data, leading to a zero-energy intercept ofS(0)=197±12 MeVb. Conclusions drawn on the use of this reaction as an advanced fuel in fusion reactors remain essentially unchanged by the present data.
