粲夸克偶素P波态χ_（c0）宽度测量

利用北京谱仪在北京正负电子对撞机上采集的３５０万（２Ｓ）事例，通过（２Ｓ）→γπ－和γＫ＋Ｋ－反应道测量了Ｘｃ０的总宽度．由ＭｏｎｔｅＣａｒｌｏ模拟给出的质量分辨函数，利用拟合Ｘｃ２谱形得到的质量分辨作标定后，用于Ｘｃ０宽度的拟合，得到Ｘｃ０的宽度为（１５．０）ＭｅＶ．同时定出了ＸｃＪ（Ｊ＝０，２）到π＋π＝和Ｋ＋Ｋ－的衰变分支比．结果为Ｂ（Ｘｃ０→π＋π－）＝（４．２７±０．２３±Ｏ．６０）×１０－３；Ｂ（Ｘｃ０→Ｋ＋Ｋ－）＝（３．４４±０．２１±０．４７×１０－３；Ｂ（Ｘｃ２→π＋π－）＝（１．５２±０．１７±０．２９）×１０－３和Ｂ（Ｘｃ２→Ｋ＋Ｋ－）＝（５．２±１．１±１．８）×１０－４，其中第一项误差为统计误差，第二项为系统误差。     

Copolymerization of styrene and butadiene in emulsion. III. Crosslinking studies by partial conversion properties

Crosslinking in the styrene–butadiene emulsion copolymerization (21 parts styrene:79 parts butadiene) prior to gelation has been studied by means of partial conversion number-average molecular weights at 5, 15, and 25°C. It is shown that the macromolecular population begins to diminish at progressively lower conversions as the reaction temperature is increased. This is attributed to the relative increase in crosslinking over propagation as the reaction temperature is increased and also to the decrease in mercaptan regulating index with increasing temperature.     

Probing states in the Mott insulator regime in the case of coherent bosons trapped in an optical lattice

We propose a method to probe states in the Mott insulator regime produced from a condensate in an optical lattice. We consider a system in which we create time-dependent number fluctuations in a given site by turning off the atomic interactions and lowering the potential barriers on a nearly pure Mott state to allow the atoms to tunnel between sites. We calculate the expected interference pattern and number fluctuations from such a system and show that one can potentially observe a deviation from a pure Mott state. We also discuss a method in which to detect these number fluctuations using time-of-flight imaging.     

Improved direct measurement of leptonic coupling asymmetries with polarized Z bosons

We present final measurements of the Z boson-lepton coupling asymmetry parameters A(e), A(mu), and A(tau) with the complete sample of polarized Z bosons collected by the SLD detector at the SLAC Linear Collider. From the left-right production and decay polar angle asymmetries in leptonic Z decays we measure A(e) = 0.1544+/-0.0060, A(mu) = 0.142+/-0.015, and A(tau) = 0.136+/-0.015. Combined with our left-right asymmetry measured from hadronic decays, we find A(e) = 0.1516+/-0.0021. Assuming lepton universality, we obtain a combined effective weak mixing angle of sin (2)theta(eff)(W) = 0.230 98+/-0.000 26.     

Recommendations on whole blood sampling, transport, and storage for simultaneous determination of pH, blood gases, and electrolytes. International Federation of Clinical Chemistry Scientific Division.

Pre-analytical variables, e.g., specimen collection, transport, and storage, can contribute significantly to inaccurate pH, blood gas, and electrolyte values. The International Federation of Clinical Chemistry (IFCC), through its Committee on pH, Blood Gases and Electrolytes, has developed specific recommendations to minimize the undesirable effects of pre-analytical variables. The Committee has drawn upon the experiences of its own members as well as published data by others. Specifically, the Committee has included pertinent guidelines and suggestions by the IFCC Working Group on Selective Electrodes (WGSE), the National Committee on Clinical Laboratory Standards (NCCLS), and the Electrolyte/Blood Gas Division of the American Association for Clinical Chemistry (AACC). This paper will familiarize the reader with the effect of different types of specimen containers and anticoagulants. It discusses important aspects of specimen collection procedures including patient status and special precautions during specimen collection from indwelling catheters or cannulae. The paper also identifies different requirements in storage and transport of specimens for blood gas and electrolyte analysis.     

Multiplicity distributions and double-scattering effects in π−d interactions at 360 GeV/c

Double-scattering effects are studied in π^?d interactions at 360 GeV/c. The partial cross sections $\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>N</mtext>}}\text{(π}{}^{\mathrm{?}}\text{d}\text{), σ}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>N</mtext>}}\text{(“π}{}^{\mathrm{?}}\text{p}\text{”)}\text{and}\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>N</mtext>}}\text{(“π}{}^{\mathrm{?}}\text{n}\text{”)}$ are presented. The double-scattering probability per πd collision is found to be $\text{? = 0.15 ± 0.02}$. We have extracted the partial cross section X_N of the double-scattering plus interference contributions, and find that X_N obeys KNO scaling. The data are compared with various theoretical predictions.     

Excitation-density-dependent generation of broadband terahertz radiation in an asymmetrically excited photoconductive antenna

The generation of terahertz (THz) transients in photoconductive emitters has been studied by varying the spatial extent and density of the optically excited photocarriers in asymmetrically excited, biased low-temperature-grown GaAs antenna structures. We find a pronounced dependence of the THz pulse intensity and broadband (>6.0 THz) spectral distribution on the pump excitation density and simulate this with a three-dimensional carrier dynamics model. We attribute the observed variation in THz emission to changes in the strength of the screening field.
