Negative slope of resistivity–temperature curve and positive magnetoresistance in antiperovskite ZnCNi3−x Mn x (1.15≤x≤1.5)

In antiperovskite intermetallics ZnCNi_3?x Mn _x , the negative slope coefficient (NSC) dρ/dT of resistivity–temperature curves is observed when x=1.15,1.25,1.4,1.5. The sample with x=1.25 shows a semiconductor-like behavior in the whole temperature range of 15–290 K. By study of the magnetization, magnetoresistance, and low-temperature X-ray diffraction, it is found that Mn dopant significantly affects the physical properties of ZnCNi_3?x Mn _x by changing both the carrier density and the magnetism. The origin of the NSC dρ/dT can be ascribed to the change of hole-like carrier density, which is adjusted by Mn content. The existence of hole-like carriers can be understood rationally by the two-band model. The change of sign of magnetoresistance from positive to negative has been observed in ZnCNi_3?x Mn _x with the change of Mn content, which could be ascribed to the competition between the contribution from field-induced suppression of the thermally excited ferromagnetic spin fluctuations and the Lorentz contribution. When Mn content is low, the Lorentz contribution dominates the sign of magnetoresistance. On the other hand, when Mn content is high, the contribution from field-induced suppression of the thermally excited ferromagnetic spin fluctuations dominates the sign of magnetoresistance.     

HZ associated production with decay in the Alternative Left-Right Model at CEPC and future linear colliders

In this study, Higgs and Z boson associated production with subsequent decay is attempted in the framework of alternative left-right model, which is motivated by superstring-inspired E_6 model at CEPC and future linear colliders. We systematically analyze each decay channel of Higgs with theoretical constraints and latest experimental methods. Due to the mixing of scalars in the Higgs sector, charged Higgs bosons can play an essential role in the phenomenological analysis of this process. Even though the predictions of this model for the signal strengths of this process are close to the standard model expectations, it can be distinct under high luminosity.     

Preparation of core–shell structure Fe3O4@SiO2 superparamagnetic microspheres immoblized with iminodiacetic acid as immobilized metal ion affinity adsorbents for His‐tag protein purification

The core–shell structure Fe₃O₄/SiO₂ magnetic microspheres were prepared by a sol–gel method, and immobiled with iminodiacetic acid (IDA) as metal ion affinity ligands for protein adsorption. The size, morphology, magnetic properties and surface modification of magnetic silica nanospheres were characterized by various modern analytical instruments. It was shown that the magnetic silica nanospheres exhibited superparamagnetism with saturation magnetization values of up to 58.1 emu/g. Three divalent metal ions, Cu²⁺, Ni²⁺ and Zn²⁺, were chelated on the Fe₃O₄@SiO₂–IDA magnetic microspheres to adsorb lysozyme. The results indicated that Ni²⁺‐chelating magnetic microspheres had the maximum adsorption capacity for lysozyme of 51.0 mg/g, adsorption equilibrium could be achieved within 60 min and the adsorbed protein could be easily eluted. Furthermore, the synthesized Fe₃O₄@SiO₂–IDA–Ni²⁺ magnetic microspheres were successfully applied for selective enrichment lysozyme from egg white and His‐tag recombinant Homer 1a from the inclusion extraction expressed in Escherichia coli. The result indicated that the magnetic microspheres showed unique characteristics of high selective separation behavior of protein mixture, low nonspecific adsorption, and easy handling. This demonstrates that the magnetic silica microspheres can be used efficiently in protein separation or purification and show great potential in the pretreatment of the biological sample.

峨山褐煤的分子结构和分子模拟

作为重要的化石能源，褐煤资源潜力巨大、分布广泛但综合利用率低。研究褐煤的分子结构模型，有助于预测褐煤在热解、液化和气化过程中的化学反应机理及反应路径，进而提高褐煤的综合应用水平。以云南峨山褐煤为研究对象，利用傅里叶变换红外光谱、13C核磁共振波谱及X射线光电子能谱等分析测试方法，获取了峨山褐煤的含碳、含氧及含氮结构参数。在此基础上，借助Gaussian 09计算平台，采用量子化学建模的方法构建并优化了峨山褐煤的分子结构模型。研究结果表明：峨山褐煤的芳碳率为39.20%，芳香碳结构主要为苯和萘，且芳香桥头碳与周边碳的比值χ_b为0.07；脂碳率为49.51%，脂肪碳结构主要为亚甲基，季碳和氧接脂碳；氧原子主要存在于羟基、醚氧、羰基和羧基结构中；含氮结构则以吡啶为主。基于元素分析、13C 核磁共振波谱分析，又经过热重实验消除褐煤中残余水分的影响后，计算出峨山褐煤的分子式为C₁₅₃H₁₃₇O₃₅N₂。依据分子式及分析结果计算出峨山褐煤的结构单元含量并构建出其初始结构模型，采用半经验法PM 3基组及密度泛函理论M06-2X/3-21G基组对初始分子构型进行优化。优化后的分子模型具有明显的三维立体特征，芳香环之间较为分散且在空间中排列不规则，芳香簇主要通过亚甲基、醚氧基、羰基、酯基和脂肪环连接，含氧官能团主要分布在分子边缘，脂肪族侧链较多。对优化后的分子模型进行振动频率计算进而获得了分子模型的模拟红外光谱，其与实验红外谱图吻合度良好，证明了峨山褐煤分子结构模型的准确性、合理性。分子结构模型的构建有利于直观地了解峨山褐煤的分子结构特征，从而有助于从微观分子角度研究峨山褐煤的宏观性质。同时，峨山褐煤分子结构模型可为其在热解、液化和气化等领域研究中提供理论指导。
