Catalytic Hydrogenation of 1-Hexene with RuCI2 (TPPMS)3(DMSO) Part II: Ionic Liquid Biphasic System

RuCl2(TPPMS)3(DMSO) (complex (I)) is very soluble in the ionic liquid 1-nbutyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (BMI.PF6). Complex (I) catalyzes 1-hexene hydrogenation (500 psi H2 and 100oC) in a two-phase system, with 80% conversion in 24 h, with little substrate isomerization. Changes in catalytic behavior with temperature, pressure, time and substrate/catalyst relation are presented. Complex (I) shows good stability and can be reused several times with little activity loss. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

MR imaging of diplomyelia.

We present an unusual case of duplication of the fifth lumbar vertebra and sacrum in a 6-year-old boy. The spinal cord was also duplicated and tethered by bone spurs bilaterally. The imaging features and the embryological basis of diplomyelia are discussed.     

Multivariate normality via conditional specification

If X is a k-dimensional random vector, we denote by X_(i) the vector X with coordinate i deleted and by X_(i,j) the vector X with coordinates i and j deleted. If for each i the conditional distribution of X_i given X_(i) = x_(i) is univariate normal for each x_(i) ^K−1 and if for each i, j the conditional distribution of X_i given X_(i,j) = x_(i,j) is univariate normal for each x_(i,j) ^k−2 then it is shown that X has a classical k-variate normal distribution.     

Rho0 production and possible modification in Au+Au and p+p collisions at square root [sNN] = 200 GeV

We report results on rho(770)(0)-->pi(+)pi(-) production at midrapidity in p+p and peripheral Au+Au collisions at sqrt[s(NN)]=200 GeV. This is the first direct measurement of rho(770)(0)-->pi(+)pi(-) in heavy-ion collisions. The measured rho(0) peak in the invariant mass distribution is shifted by approximately 40 MeV/c(2) in minimum bias p+p interactions and approximately 70 MeV/c(2) in peripheral Au+Au collisions. The rho(0) mass shift is dependent on transverse momentum and multiplicity. The modification of the rho(0) meson mass, width, and shape due to phase space and dynamical effects are discussed.     

Nanosphere lithography: fabrication of large-area Ag nanoparticle arrays by convective self-assembly and their characterization by scanning UV-visible extinction spectroscopy

This work employs UV-visible extinction spectroscopy as a new spectral mapping technique to characterize self-assembled polystyrene microsphere samples produced by convective self-assembly (CSA). This spectroscopic technique was successfully used to analyze the periodic particle arrays produced by the polystyrene template, yielding a detailed characterization of each sample. The CSA-prepared samples proved to be more uniform across a sample as well as more reproducible than previous sample preparation techniques. For the first time, a detailed characterization and quantitative evaluation of the entire sample has been performed by spectroscopic mapping.     

Almost-periodic solutions for a second order abstract Cauchy problem

Summary Let M be a number field of degree m with ring of integers \bZ_M. Let F\in\bZ_M[X,Y] be a form of degree n such that F(X,1) has distinct roots. Let\break G\in\bZ[X,Y] be an arbitrary polynomial of degree k. Assuming that k\le n-2m\pl 1 if all roots of F^{(i)}(X,1) (1\le i\le n) are complex and k\le n-4m\pl 1 otherwise, we provide an efficient algorithm for finding all solutions X,Y\in\bZ_M, \max\b(\overline{|X|},\overline{|Y|}\,\b)\ki C of the inequality \overline{\b|F(X,Y)\b|\!}\,\le c \cdot \overline{\b|G(X,Y)\b|\!}\,. We provide numerical examples with m=3 and C=10^{100}.     

Distributions of charged hadrons associated with high transverse momentum particles in pp and Au+Au collisions at sqrt[sNN]=200 GeV

Charged hadrons in [EQUATION: SEE TEXT] associated with particles of [EQUATION: SEE TEXT] are reconstructed in pp and Au+Au collisions at sqrt[sNN]=200 GeV. The associated multiplicity and p magnitude sum are found to increase from pp to central Au+Au collisions. The associated p distributions, while similar in shape on the nearside, are significantly softened on the awayside in central Au+Au relative to pp and not much harder than that of inclusive hadrons. The results, consistent with jet quenching, suggest that the awayside fragments approach equilibration with the medium traversed.
