STRUCTURE OF METHYLPHEOPHORBIDE-RCI*

Abstract— The methanolic extract of the cyanobacterium (blue-green alga) Spirulina geitleri has been treated with methanolic acid to convert all chlorophyllous pigments to their methylpheophorbides. Fractionation of the latter from methylpheophorbide a by thin layer chromatography and high pressure liquid chromatography yielded methylpheophorbide-RCI. Its structure has been determined as 13²S-hydroxy-20-chloro-methylpheophorbide a by ¹H-nuclear magnetic resonance, absorption and circular dichroism spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and by partial synthesis from chlorophyll a. The pigment is isolated from Spirulina geitleri irrespective of the use or omission of chlorinated substances during the isolation procedure.

Invariants de Maslov équivariants

We construct two cohomological invariants associated to pairs of Lagrangian sub-bundles of a symplectic bundle on a compact manifold upon which a compact Lie group is acting. The first invariant, which we call the classical equivariant Maslov H-invariant, provides an obstruction to Lagrangian transversality and lives in the Borel cohomology. The second invariant, which we call the equivariant Maslov U-invariant, generalises the author's results in K-Theory 13 (1998), 347–361 to the equivariant context and provides a necessary and sufficient condition for equivariant Lagrangian transversality, up to homotopic stability, and lives in the U-theory (intermediate between the real complex K-theories). As an application, we show that two Lagrangian sub-bundles of a symplectic bundle on a homogeneous space are always stably transverse.     

Transitional quadrupole moments in83Y

Doppler shift attenuation lifetime measurements have been carried out for the 3qp and isomeric rotational bands in⁸³Y using the reaction⁵⁸Ni(²⁸Si,3p). While the transitional quadrupole moments in the 3qp bands are slightly lower than in the 1qp bands, we found evidence for a strong reduction in ¦Q_t¦ for the isomeric band.     

A study of high spin states in the transitional nucleus90Mo

The reaction⁵⁸Ni(³⁶Ar, 4p)⁹⁰Mo has been studied at a beam energy of 149 MeV. A detector array consisting of the OSIRIS spectrometer (12 Compton-suppressed Ge detectors), four charged-particleδE detectors and seven NE-213 neutron detectors at the VICKSI accelerator in Berlin has been used to measure the gamma radiation inγγ- and particle-γγ-coincidence mode. An additional Ge detector was placed at 162? to the beam direction to provide information on DCO ratios. The level scheme of⁹⁰Mo has been extended up to an excitation energy of about 12 MeV and probable spin 23?. Some 70 transitions and 40 levels have been newly identified. Spin assignments have been proposed on the basis of measured DCO ratios. Shell model calculations in a model space consisting of the proton 1f _5/2, 2p _3/2, 2p _1/2, and 1g _9/2 orbits and the neutron 2p _1/2, 1g _9/2, 1g _7/2, 2d _5/2, 2d _3/2, and 3s _1/2 orbits with some truncation were made for states above 9? and the predicted structure of these states is discussed.     

Microscopic calculation of the surface absorption in the optical potential

We calculated the contributions of the two-particle one-hole (2p-1h) and the one-particle two-hole (1p-1h) excitations to the imaginary partW(E, R) of then-⁴⁰Ca optical potential. The bound single particle states and energies of the⁴⁰Ca nucleus are calculated quantum mechanically by solving the Schrödinger equation with a Woods-Saxon potential. For the excited states in the continuum we use the Thomas-Fermi approximation. Different forms of contact residual interactions have been tested. A combination of aδ-force and a smeared SDI can fit the phenomenologicalW(E, R).     

On the coexistence of oblate and prolate deformed bands in83Zr

Deformation parameters of the positive parity yrast band and negative parity bands in⁸³Zr are deduced from lifetimes andE2/M1 mixing ratios. Lifetimes of high spin states have been determined from recoil distance Doppler shift and Doppler shift attenuation measurements using the⁵⁴Fe(³²S,2pnγ) ⁸³Zr reaction. Ten lifetimes and five lifetimes limits were determined. The positive parity band, built on theg _9/2 K=5/2 orbital has an average deformation ¦β ₂¦=0.28(2), and shows a reduction ofE2 transition strengths in the observed backbend region at I^π≈21/2⁺. In contrast, theE2 strengths in the negative parity states show a steady increase up to I^π≈=15/2^?. These states are more strongly deformed than the positive parity states (¦β ₂¦=0.33(3)). TheE2/M1 mixing ratios show that the negative parity band hasK=3/2 and is prolate, and favour oblate deformation for the positive parity yrast band. In theK=1/2^? band theE2 strength of the 7/2^?→3/2^? transition yields a deformation ¦β ₂¦=0.26(5). The band structure is compared with calculations within the Hartree-Fock Bogoliubov cranking model.     

A Hyland-Bernstein approach to the digital control of Pritchard-Salamon systems

In this paper we consider the fixed finite-order digital linear-quadraticcontrol of Pritchard-Salamon infinite-dimensional systems withunbounded input and output operators under gaussian disturbances.A set of necessary conditions is given in terms of the solvabilityof a discrete-time Hyland-Bernstein system of equations (twomodified Riccati equations and two modified Lyapunov equationscoupled by an projection operator).
