Level crossing resonance due to chlorine nuclei in a free radical

Muonium adds to allyl chloride, CH₂=CHCH₂Cl, to form two radicals: MuCH₂CHCH₂Cl (main product) and CH₂CHMuCH₂Cl (minor product). Both radicals were fully characterized bySR andLCR. In the main product, the LCR lines due to the³⁵Cl and³⁷Cl nuclei were observed. Also, the temperature dependence of various hyperfine coupling constants (hfc) indicates that both Mu and Cl eclipse the unpaired electronp ₂-orbital in the minimum energy conformation. For the fragment-CH₂Cl, the presence of Mu in the-position is found to affect significantly the hfc of Cl in the-position; an internal rotational barrier of 12 kJ mol^–1 was estimated using a simpleV ₂ torsional potential.     

Interior-point algorithm for quadratically constrained entropy minimization problems

In this paper, we develop an interior point algorithm for quadratically constrained entropy problems. The algorithm uses a variation of Newton's method to follow a central path trajectory in the interior of the feasible set. The primal-dual gap is made less than a given in at most steps, wheren is the dimension of the problem andm is the number of quadratic inequality constraints.
