相对论重离子碰撞的温度涨落与热容

使用LUCIAE3.0模型模拟了SPS能区Pb+Pb和C+C在不同能量(E_lab=20—200A GeV)和不同中心度下的重离子碰撞.并通过逐个事件的粒子温度涨落提取出了相应粒子的热容,发现对于同一碰撞系统,单位发射粒子的热容随碰撞能量的升高而下降直至饱和,随着碰撞参数b的增大而减小,而且发现单位发射粒子的热容具有随粒子质量的变大而变大的关系.同时还发现不同碰撞系统中同一种粒子具有相同的单位发射粒子热容,并给出了相应的解释.     

Relaxation of strains in fibrillar porous carbon dioxide saturated media near their critical point

The isothermal relaxation of strains in deformed fibrillar porous layers saturated with subcritical or supercritical carbon dioxide has been studied at different temperatures by full-field speckle correlometry. The relaxation of strains is produced by the porous layer—fluid transition of a system from one equilibrium thermodynamic state to another due to a jump-like change in pressure. It has been established that the relaxation time attains a maximum near a critical point and rapidly decreases with increasing deviation of the system temperature from its critical value. The mechanisms of hydrodynamic relaxation in the density of a fluid layer and viscoelastic relaxation in a porous matrix are discussed. It is shown that the experimentally observed slow relaxation of a system is due to the viscoelastic relaxation of a porous fluid saturated layer at equal fluid densities inside and outside the layer.     

Synthesis of amino-containing meso-aryl-substituted porphyrins and their conjugates with the closo-decaborate anion

Amphiphilic meso-aryl-substituted porphyrins containing an amino group and long-chain hydrophobic substituents were synthesized. Two strategies of the synthesis of asymmetric amino-containing porphyrins using p-acetamidobenzaldehyde and p-nitrobenzaldehyde were developed and investigated. A series of new substituted porphyrin-containing closo-decaborates were prepared based on the synthesized porphyrins and nitrilium derivatives of the closo-decaborate anion [B₁₀H₁₀]^2?.     

Nano Carrier Drug Delivery Systems for the Treatment of Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Advantages and Limitations

Neuropsychiatric diseases are one of the main causes of disability, affecting millions of people. Various drugs are used for its treatment, although no effective therapy has been found yet. The blood brain barrier (BBB) significantly complicates drugs delivery to the target cells in the brain tissues. One of the problem-solving methods is the usage of nanocontainer systems. In this review we summarized the data about nanoparticles drug delivery systems and their application for the treatment of neuropsychiatric disorders. Firstly, we described and characterized types of nanocarriers: inorganic nanoparticles, polymeric and lipid nanocarriers, their advantages and disadvantages. We discussed ways to interact with nerve tissue and methods of BBB penetration. We provided a summary of nanotechnology-based pharmacotherapy of schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, anxiety disorder and Alzheimer’s disease, where development of nanocontainer drugs derives the most active. We described various experimental drugs for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease that include vector nanocontainers targeted on β-amyloid or tau-protein. Integrally, nanoparticles can substantially improve the drug delivery as its implication can increase BBB permeability, the pharmacodynamics and bioavailability of applied drugs. Thus, nanotechnology is anticipated to overcome the limitations of existing pharmacotherapy of psychiatric disorders and to effectively combine various treatment modalities in that direction.     

158A GeV的相对论重离子碰撞的强子快度分布及温度拟合

针对最近NA49在158A GeV的实验(C+C,Si+Si,Pb+Pb)数据,应用LUCIAE3.0模型进行模拟,得到了强子的快度分布和横向动量分布,并与实验数据进行比较,发现基本与实验数据相吻合。并对横向动量分布进行温度拟合,给出了和实验数据吻合很好的结果,但是对于重系统或重强子LUCIAE3.0给出的结果与实验符合相对较差.     

高能重离子碰撞中正负荷电粒子比单事例起伏研究

用强子和弦级联模型,JPCIAE及相应的Monte Carlo事例产生器,研究相对论性核–核碰撞中有限快度区间内正负荷电粒子比单事例起伏与能量、中心度、共振态衰变及快度间隔的关系.JPCIAE模型能够较好地符合CERN/SPS能区Pb+Pb碰撞的实验结果.本文还用此模型预言了RHIC能区Au+Au碰撞和ALICE能区Pb+Pb碰撞中的正负荷电粒子比单事例起伏.可以看出碰撞能量、中心度、共振态衰变及快度间隔对正负荷电粒子比单事例起伏的影响都不大.     

Preliminary structural characterization, anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant activities of chondroitin sulfates from marine fish cartilage

Chondroitin sulfates isolated from cartilage of five marine fish species: Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), Greenland shark (Somniosus microcephalus), blackmouth catshark (Galeus melastomus), birdbeak dogfish (Deania calcea), and Arctic skate (Amblyraja hyperborea), were characterized in detail by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The complete signal assignments for carbohydrates were made and the relative contents of the key structural units were estimated by 2D homonuclear and heteronuclear NMR spectroscopy (COSY, TOCSY, NOESY, HSQC, and HMBC). The average length of the polysaccharide chain was evaluated from the integrated intensity ratio of the terminal and internal monosaccharide residues. The anti-inflammatory and anticoagulant activities of the specimens were studied. Chondroitin sulfates from salmon and Arctic skate exhibit considerable anti-inflammatory activity. All specimens manifest weak anticoagulant activity. The results of the present study indicate that chondroitin sulfates deserve more detailed investigation as potential anti-inflammatory agents.     

Theoretical Study of Hydrated Cd~（2＋） Interactions with Guanine

Theoretical study was performed to investigate how the hydration of cadmium ca-tion influences the structure and properties of guanine.The aqueous environment was simulated by both explicit solvent(1-5 water molecules) model and implicit solvent model.For complexes in which Cd2+ attached to the N(7) and O(6) sites of guanine,energy analysis together with the Natural Bonding Orbital(NBO) analysis were performed to elucidate the bonding characteristics in detail.The most stable structures are penta-coordinate complexes without aqua ligand located at the guanine site.Higher number of water ligands corresponds to higher stabilization energies.Average bonding energies of G-Cd increase with the number of water molecules.Bonding energies of water ligands depend on its position in the complexes.The charge distribution of guanine changed with increasing the number of water ligands,which may also influence the base-pairing pattern of guanine.There is positive charge transfer from guanine to aqua ligand as the number of the hydration waters increases.IEFPCM optimization has results comparable to the [CdG(H2O)5]2+ structure 5a.
