High-lyingM 1-states of spherical nuclei

The cross section of inelastic scattering of slow electrons at large angles with excitation of high-lying 1⁺-states in²⁰⁸Pb are calculated in DWBA. The calculations are carried out both in the random-phase approximation and with the interaction of one-and two-phonon states in the framework of semi-microscopic quasi-particle-phonon model. A group of noncollective 1⁺-states with a large excitation probability in backward (e, é)-scattering is found in the excitation energy region of 17–21 MeV. We discuss also the problem of existence, properties, and possibility of discovery the high-lying collective 1⁺-states (2?ω M 1-resonance) predicted by Speth et al.     

Chemistry of 2-hetarylbenimidazoles. 7. Transformations of trans-1-methyl-2-[Β-(2′-furyl)vinyl] benzimidazole

Electrophilic substitution reactions in the furylvinylbenzimidazole series were studied. In nitration, sulfonation, bromination, acylation, formylation, and hydroxymethylation reactions, the substituent enters at the -position of the furan ring. The presence of a vinylene group reduces the influence of the benzimidazole fragment on the furan ring, and therefore the reactions in the latter proceed considerably more rapidly and under milder conditions than in the case of furylbenzimidazole. Calculated data are given for the -electronic density on the carbon atoms of furyl-vinylbenzimidazole, obtained by the CNDO method.For Communication 6, see [1].Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 8, pp. 1078–1081, August, 1986.The authors wish to express their gratitude to Yu.

Adhesive properties of binary mixtures of some ethylene copolymers

It is shown using the example of polyolefin thermoplasts that the value of adhesion strength is determined by the mechanical properties of a composition.     

Obstacles with non-trivial trapping sets in higher dimensions

The new results concerning the continuity of holomorphically contractible systems treated as set functions with respect to non-monotonic sequences of sets are given. In particular, continuity properties of Kobayashi and Carathéodory pseudodistances, as well as Lempert and Green functions with respect to sequences of domains converging in the Hausdorff metric are delivered.     

The effect of aminoalkoxy and glycidoxyalkoxy silanes on adhesion characteristics of double and triple copolymers of ethylene

The effect of aminoalkoxy and glycidoxyalkoxy silanes on strength of a polyethylene-modified copolymer-metal (polyethylene terephthalate) adhesion joint was studied for double and triple acetate copolymers of ethylene. It was shown that such modification resulted in an essential increase in the deformation-strength and adhesion characteristics of adhesive joints.     

The nature of interactions on copolymer of ethylene with a vynilacetate-metal interface

Surface energetic and acid-base properties of coatings based on copolymers of ethylene with vinylacetate are studied. It is shown, that acid-base interactions have determining role in adhesion interaction on the interface with metal.     

Analysis of the influence of cardanol content on the properties of phenol-cardanol-formaldehyde novolac resins

The influence of cardanol content on the molecular-weight distribution and curing kinetics of phenol-cardanol-formaldehyde novolac oligomers is investigated. It is shown that, depending on the cardanol content, the resulting oligomers can be used as components in glues and sealants of different purposes.     

Radiative strength functions in odd-A spherical nuclei

The radiative strength functions for the partial γ-transitions from neutron resonances to the ground and low-lying states of odd-A spherical nuclei are calculated within the quasiparticle-phonon nuclear model. The fragmentation of one-quasiparticle and quasiparticle-plus-phonon states is calculated. This allowed one to calculate γ-transitions between the one-quasi-particle components (valence transitions) and γ-transitions between the quasiparticle-plus-phonon and one-quasiparticle components of the wave functions. The energy dependence of the strength functions $\text{C}$(E1, η) and $\text{C}$(M1, η) is calculated near the neutron binding energy B_n for ⁵⁵Fe and ^{59, 61}Ni. The corresponding experimental data are described qualitatively. The contribution of the valence E1 transitions to the strength function is shown to be from 20% to 90%, and M1 transitions about 1%. The influence of the M1 giant resonance is important for M1 transition probabilities.
