On transverse momentum event–by–event fluctuations in string hadronic models

Transverse momentum event–by–event fluctuations are studied within the string–hadronic model of high energy nuclear collisions, LUCIAE. Data on non–statistical fluctuations in p+p interactions are reproduced. Fluctuations of similar magnitude are predicted for nucleus–nucleus collisions, in contradiction to the preliminary NA49 results. The introduction of a string clustering mechanism (Firecracker Model) leads to a further, significant increase of fluctuations for nucleus–nucleus collisions. Secondary hadronic interactions, as implemented in LUCIAE, cause only a small reduction of fluctuations. Received: 23 October 1998 / Published online: 11 March 1999     

Structural and magnetic properties of Mg(In2−xMnx)O4 system

We synthesized the Mn-doped Mg(In_2−xMn_x)O₄ oxides with 0.03?x?0.55 using a solid-state reaction method. The X-ray diffraction patterns of the samples were in a good agreement with that of a distorted orthorhombic spinel phase. Their lattice parameters and unit-cell volumes decrease with x due to the substitution of the smaller Mn³⁺ ions to the larger In³⁺ ions. The undoped MgIn₂O₄ oxide presents diamagnetic signals for 5 K?T?300 K. The M(H) at T=300 K reveals a fairly negative-sloped linear relationship. Neither magnetic hysteresis nor saturation behavior was observed in this parent sample. For the Mn-doped samples, however, positive magnetization were observed between 5 and 300 K even if the x value is as low as 0.03. The mass susceptibility enhances with Mn content and it reaches the highest value of 1.4×10⁻³ emu/g Oe (at T=300 K) at x=0.45. Furthermore, the Mn-doped oxides with x=0.06 and 0.2, respectively, exhibit nonlinear magnetization curves and small hysteretic loops in low magnetic fields. Susceptibilities of the Mn-doped samples are much higher than those of MnO₂, Mn₂O₃ oxides, and Mn metals. These results show that the oxides have potential to be magnetic semiconductors.

Evaluation of liquid chromatography–ion trap–time of flight hybrid mass spectrometry on the quantitative analysis for ginsenosides

It is ideal and desirable for a single instrument to meet the requirement of both qualitative and quantitative analysis of complicated components in pharmacokinetic research for herbal medicine. Liquid chromatography combined with hybrid ion trap and time‐of‐flight mass spectrometry (LCMS‐IT‐TOF) was recently confirmed as a very powerful tool for the qualitative analysis of both target and nontarget components in herbal medicines. The present study was designed to investigate the feasibility of LCMS‐IT‐TOF on quantitative analysis of ginsenosides in biological matrices. A simple liquid–liquid extraction procedure was followed by injection of the extracts onto a C₁₈ column with gradient elution and detection based on LCMS‐IT‐TOF system in negative scan mode. The developed method was validated with respect to the limit of quantification, linear dynamic range, precision, accuracy, matrix effects and stabilities. All the results suggested that the presently developed method was sufficiently sensitive and robust enough to simultaneously monitor 15 ginsenosides with diverse properties and a large range of concentration differences. Therefore, this method would be expected to be highly useful for comprehensive studies of ginsenosides in complicated matrix. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Photoisomerization of a Maleonitrile‐Type Salen Schiff Base and Its Application in Fine‐Tuning Infinite Coordination Polymers

Strategically designed salen ligand 2,3‐bis[4‐(di‐p‐tolylamino)‐2‐hydroxybenzylideneamino]maleonitrile ( 1 ), which has pronounced excited‐state charge‐transfer properties, shows a previously unrecognized form of photoisomerization. On electronic excitation (denoted by an asterisk), 1Z *→ 1E isomerization takes place by rotation about the C2? C3 bond, which takes on single‐bond character due to the charge‐transfer reaction. The isomerization takes place nonadiabatically from the excited‐state ( 1Z ) to the ground‐state ( 1E ) potential‐energy surface in the singlet manifold; 1Z and 1E are neither thermally inconvertible at ambient temperature (25–30 °C), nor does photoinduced reverse 1E *→ 1Z (or 1Z *) isomerization occur. Isomers 1Z and 1E show very different coordination chemistry towards a Zn^II precursor. More prominent coordination chemistry is evidenced by a derivative of 1 bearing a carboxyl group, namely, N,N′‐dicyanoethenebis(salicylideneimine)dicarboxylic acid ( 2 ). Applying 2Z and its photoinduced isomer 2E as building blocks, we then demonstrate remarkable differences in morphology (sphere‐ and needlelike nanostructure, respectively) of their infinite coordination polymers with Zn^II.
