Inclusive Λ production in\bar p p interactions at 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5 GeV/c

Inclusive Λ production in \(\bar p\) p interactions at 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5 GeV/c is studied. The inclusive cross sections for Λ and Λ \(\bar \Lambda \) production are measured. The differential cross sections as functions ofx, y, andP _T ² are given for each beam momentum. It is found that the contribution of indirect production of Λ from resonance decay is considerably enhanced in the region of higher missing mass against Λ. The negative polarization is observed for Λ with largerP _T and lower missing mass, and is found to be mainly from two body reactions. Inclusive cross sections for∑ ^±(1385) production and the fraction of indirect Λ from∑ ^±(1385) decay are measured. The ratio between the cross sections for∑ ⁺(1385) and∑ ^?(1385) productions is found to be almost constant for wide range of beam momenta.     

Synthesis of (perfluoroalkyl)aryliodonium sulfonates [1]

(Perfluoroalkyl)aryliodonium halides [2] and -tetra- fluoroborates [3] were previously synthesized. We now wish to report the synthesis of several kinds of (perfluoroalkyl)aryliodonium sulfonates which are important as electrophilic perfluoroalkylating agents [4].     

Some chemical transformations of 7a-cyanohexahydro-1H-pyrrolizine into 7a-substituted hexahydro-1H-pyrrolizines

Chemical transformations of 7a-cyanohexahydro-1H-pyrrolizine ( 2 ) into 7a-substituted hexahydro-1H-pyrrolizines are described. In the reaction of 2 with lithium aluminum hydride, the orientation of the lone pair of the bridgehead nitrogen against C-CN bond can be regarded as significant.     

Persistent and reversible all-optical phase control in a manganite thin film

Persistent and reversible optical phase control has been achieved in a manganite thin film through a careful choice of the composition of Pr1-x(Ca1-ySr(y))xMnO3 near a multicritical point. Pulsed laser light brings the lower temperature metallic phase out of the higher temperature charge-ordered insulator, while a cw light reverses the effect by heating. We clearly demonstrate the two competing roles played by light, heating, and excitation across the charge gap, which are important in both the application and the understanding of the physics of electron correlation.
