Study of Six Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons by Chemical Deoxygenation Microemulsion-Stabilized Room Temperature Phosphorimetry

Six polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are studied by chemical deoxygenation microemulsion-stabilized room temperature phosphorimetry with sodium sulfite as an oxygen scavenger and thallous nitrate as a heavy atom perturber in sodium dodecyl sulfate medium. Several factors influencing room temperature phosphorescence such as the concentration of sodium dodecyl sulfate, the heavy atom concentration, the pH, and the concentration of sodium sulfite are discussed and the quenching effect of NO₂⁻on room temperature phosphorimetry of PAHs was compared in the microemulsion and micelle media.     

A note of a modular equation of Ramanujan–Selberg continued fraction

The Ramanujan Journal - We show that if $$E/\mathbb {Q}$$ is an elliptic curve with a rational p-torsion for $$p=2$$ or 3, then there is a congruence relation between Ramanujan’s tau function...

Some Properties of Solutions to the Novikov Equation with Weak Dissipation Terms

In this paper, we investigate the Novikov equation with weak dissipation terms. First, we give the local well-posedness and the blow-up scenario. Then, we discuss the global existence of the solutions under certain conditions. After that, on condition that the compactly supported initial data keeps its sign, we prove the infinite propagation speed of our solutions, and establish the large time behavior. Finally, we also elaborate the persistence property of our solutions in weighted Sobolev space.     

Independent sets,cliques and hamiltonian graphs

LetG be ak-connected (k 2) graph onn vertices. LetS be an independent set ofG. S is called essential if there exist two distinct vertices inS which have a common neighbor inG. LetV _r, be a clique which is a complete subgraph ofG. In this paper it is proven that if every essential independent setS ofk + 1 vertices satisfiesS V _r , thenG is hamiltonian, orG{u} is hamiltonian for someu V _r, orG is one of three classes of exceptional graphs. Our theorem generalizes several well-known theorems.     

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.     

Origin and manifestation of the anharmonic potential felt by an ion-cloud in an actual Paul trap

The anharmonic potential felt by a single-species ions confined in a rf quadrupole trap which results from a non-ideal trap configuration and the charge distribution of the ion cloud is studied. The rf resonance-absorption spectra are explained by a Duffing oscillator and a representation of the line-shape parameter is derived. For > 0.77, the electric signals will exhibit hysteresis. The relation with the anharmonic potential is discussed.
