Molecular dynamics studies on octadecylammonium chloride at the air/liquid interface

Molecular dynamics simulations on surfactant octadecylammonium chloride at the air/liquid interface were performed. It was found that the alkyl chains of octadecylammonium would change to order with increasing the concentration of octadecylammonium at the air/liquid interface. Some functions, such as the concentration distributions, the radial distribution function and the mean squared displacement (MSD) were evaluated to investigate the structural properties of interface. We found that the salts can affect octadecylammonium aggregate at the interface: (1) univalent ions, such as chloride and sodium ions, affect slightly the structure of monolayer and (2) bivalent ions, such as sulfate or calcium ions, affect greatly, especially for the bivalent negative ions.

Observation of isomeric states in197Bi

The high spin states of¹¹⁹Te, populated in¹¹⁰Pd(¹³C,4n) and¹¹⁰Pd(¹²C,3n) reactions, have been studied through -ray spectroscopy. The level scheme has been established upto a spin of 55/2. Three-quasiparticle states, based on g² _7/2h_11/2 and g_7/2d_5/2h_11/2 configurations, have been identified. The 35/2 and 39/2 states are suggested to be the fully aligned states constituted by five valence h_11/2 ³, g_7/2, d_5/2 quasiparticles.     

Chaotic electronic scattering with He(+)

We investigate classical electronic collisions with a He(+) ion. Scattering functions, such as the scattering angle, collisional time, or energy of the outgoing electron, all exhibit an interesting hierarchial self-similar structure, which can be interpreted in terms of the indefinite number of electronic returns to the vicinity of the nucleus, encounters between electrons, and Keplerian excursions of electrons during the collisional processes. Based on this mechanism a binary coding is introduced to organize the dynamics of this three-body system and to provide an understanding of the self-similarity among generations of scale magnification, which yields escape rates that vary with the sectional cut into the parameter space. The self-similarity displayed within a single generation, on the other hand, can be simply tied to the periods of the two independent electronic excursions. The physical interpretation and the symbolic dynamics introduced here are generally useful for three-body collisional systems, including atomic, molecular, or stellar collisions.     

Dynamics of photodissociation of 3,3,3-d(3)-propene at 157 nm: site effect and hydrogen migration

In a preceding paper [Lee et al., J. Chem. Phys. 119, 827 (2003)], we measured the kinetic-energy distributions P(E(t)) and branching ratios of products from photolysis of propene at 157 nm using time-of-flight spectroscopy combined with photoionization. In the present work, hydrogen migration before fragmentation and a site effect on P(E(t)) and branching ratios were revealed from the photodissociation of CD(3)CHCH(2). Labeling of the methyl group with deuterium enabled us to differentiate between elimination of atomic and molecular hydrogen from the vinyl moiety and from the methyl moiety; the P(E(t)) and relative yields for the formation of H, D, H(2), HD, and D(2) were measured. Deuterium labeling allowed us to also differentiate the fragmentation after hydrogen transfer from that before hydrogen migration. The observation of isotopic variants of CD(3) and C(2)H(3) radicals in the C-C bond cleavage provides evidence for hydrogen transfer of propene because of site specificity. The fraction of fragmentation after hydrogen transfer is estimated to be 25%. The isotope-specific branching ratios for five dissociation pathways of CD(3)CHCH(2) were evaluated.
