A rapid and simple amine-catalyzed microwave-assisted isomerization of maleamides into fumaramides

An improved, efficient, and simple method for the synthesis of nonsymmetrical diamides of fumaric acid is reported. Starting from commercially available substrates, maleic diamides are formed in two steps, and then isomerized in a focused microwave reactor in acetonitrile as the solvent in the presence of a catalytic amount of piperidine, giving the corresponding fumaramides in high yields and purity.     

A lower bound on Hartmann number for relaxed plasmas described by Taylor’s principle

A lower bound on Hartmann number for relaxed plasmas described by Taylor’s principle of minimum magnetic energy with fixed magnetic helicity is found analytically starting from first principles. Spontaneous filamentation occurs if the Hartmann number is below threshold. Comparison with both experiments and numerical computations is presented.     

Tensor correlations measured in 3He(e,e' pp)n

We have measured the 3He(e,e' pp)n reaction at an incident energy of 4.7 GeV over a wide kinematic range. We identified spectator correlated pp and pn nucleon pairs by using kinematic cuts and measured their relative and total momentum distributions. This is the first measurement of the ratio of pp to pn pairs as a function of pair total momentum p(tot). For pair relative momenta between 0.3 and 0.5 GeV/c, the ratio is very small at low p(tot) and rises to approximately 0.5 at large p(tot). This shows the dominance of tensor over central correlations at this relative momentum.     

Measurement of single- and double-spin asymmetries in deep inelastic pion electroproduction with a longitudinally polarized target

We report the first measurement of the transverse momentum dependence of double-spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive production of pions in deep-inelastic scattering off the longitudinally polarized proton. Data have been obtained using a polarized electron beam of 5.7 GeV with the CLAS detector at the Jefferson Lab (JLab). Modulations of single spin asymmetries over the azimuthal angle between lepton scattering and hadron production planes ? have been measured over a wide kinematic range in Bjorken x and virtual photon squared four-momentum Q2. A significant nonzero sin2? single spin asymmetry was observed for the first time indicating strong spin-orbit correlations for transversely polarized quarks in the longitudinally polarized proton.
