Studies on the extraction of vanadium (IV) in the presence of some anions and neutral oxygen donors

Extraction of vanadium (IV) in the presence of perchlorate, nitrate, halides, and thiocyanate and neutral oxygen donors liken-butanol, TBP and antipyrine into various solvents is studied. Composition of the extracting species and the stability constants are determined. The effectiveness of the three neutral oxygen donors studied in the extraction of vanadium (IV)-anion systems is found to follow the order: antipyrine > TBP >n-butanol.

The Method of Angular Line to Calculate Eigenvalues for Microstrip Antennas

The method of angular line (MAL) is presented for calculating the resonant frequency of microstrip antenna, which is available in other literature and originally used to analyze various waveguide structure. The results obtained by using this method are in conformity with those reported elsewhere.     

Helium implanted CuHf as studied by TDPAC and positron lifetime measurements

¹⁸¹Ta time differential perturbed angular correlation (TDPAC) and positron lifetime measurements were carried out on homogeneously α-implanted CuHf samples. TDPAC measurements indicate the trapping of vacancy clusters and helium associated defect complexes by Hf atoms. The presence of helium-vacancy complexes and helium stabilised voids has been identified by positron lifetime measurements. Further the nucleation and growth stages of helium bubbles have been identified. TDPAC and positron lifetime measurements indicate that Hf atoms act as heterogeneous nucleating centers for helium bubbles. Hf atoms are found to suppress the bubble growth in CuHf as indicated by the results of positron lifetime measurements.     

Transfer measurements for the Ti+Ni systems at near barrier energies

Large enhancements have been observed in the sub-barrier fusion cross sections for Ti+Ni systems in our previous studies. Coupled channel calculations incorporating couplings to 2⁺ and 3⁻ states failed to explain these enhancements completely. A possibilty of transfer channels contributing to the residual enhancements had been suggested. In order to investigate the role of relevant transfer channels, measurements of one- and two-nucleon transfer were carried out for ^46,48Ti+⁶¹Ni systems. The present paper gives the results of these studies.     

Measuring the power-law exponent of an atmospheric turbulence phase power spectrum with a Shack Hartmann wave-front sensor

For non-Kolmogorov turbulence we develop a differential angle-of-arrival fluctuation coefficient, which is the ratio between the transverse and longitudinal differential angle-of-arrival variances, and a slope structure-correlation coefficient, which is the ratio between the transverse and longitudinal differences of the slope correlation function and the slope structure function, to measure the power-law exponent of a phase power spectrum with a Shack-Hartmann wave-front sensor: The differential arrival-of-angle fluctuation coefficient and the slope structure-correlation coefficient are both related to power-law exponent beta and are independent of strength parameter rho(0) of the turbulence. We compare the methods developed and use them to evaluate beta in recently completed horizontal atmospheric experiments for 1000-m laser beam propagation.     

基于无人机探测大柴旦地区近地层气溶胶特征

通过改装多旋翼无人机（UAV）和搭载各类载荷以及联合地基观测设备对大柴旦地区大气、环境以及气溶胶参数进行测量。利用获得的数据资料,对该地区近地层气溶胶粒子数浓度（即单位体积空气中气溶胶粒子的数目）、消光系数以及气象要素等特征进行了分析。结果表明,在大柴旦地区,近地层气溶胶粒子数浓度日变化显著,呈现双峰形态,气溶胶粒子数浓度的变化范围为75～220 cm^-3,消光系数的变化范围为0.004～0.038 km^-1;当风速小于6 m/s时,气溶胶粒子数浓度与风速呈负相关关系;当风速大于6 m/s时,二者呈正相关关系;相对湿度对气溶胶粒子的影响较小,这可能是由于该地区以沙尘型气溶胶为主,吸湿性较弱。本研究基于多旋翼无人机探测平台,可以有效地获得近地层精细化大气、环境结构,有助于研究人员了解该地区气溶胶的结构、变化特征以及建立气溶胶模式,同时也为气溶胶及大气环境参数探测方法提供了技术支撑及思路拓展。

Discovery of ( ±)-3-(1 H -pyrazol-1-yl)-6,7-dihydro-5 H -[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4- b ][1,3,4] thiadiazine derivatives with promising in vitro anticoronavirus and antitumoral activity

A new series of (?±)-(3-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-6-phenyl-6,7-dihydro-5H-[1,2,4]triazolo[3,4-b][1,3,4]thiadiazin-7-yl)(phenyl)methanones were efficiently synthesized starting from 4-amino-5-hydrazinyl-4H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol 1, acetyl acetone 2, various aromatic and heterocyclic aldehydes 3 and phenacyl bromides 4. All the newly synthesized compounds were tested for their antiviral and antitumoral activity. It was shown that subtle structural variations on the phenyl moiety allowed to tune biological properties toward antiviral or antitumoral activity. Mode-of-action studies revealed that the antitumoral activity was due to inhibition of tubulin polymerization.
