A quark model based on QCD scale anomaly

We consider a quark model based on QCD scale anomaly in which the quarks move in the field of an effective glueball field. Hadrons correspond to solitonic bags of higher energy density in a nonperturbative sea of condensed gluons. We calculate the static properties of nucleon in this model and find that the nucleon mass is far too large (2.4–4 GeV) and the proton charge radius (0.37–0.54 fm) is low. The proton gyromagnetic ratio and g_A/g_v are in reasonable agreement with the experimental numbers.     

Detection of NO traces Using resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization: A method for monitoring atmospheric pollutants

Resonantly enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) is proposed as an ultrasensitive detection method forreal-time monitoring of atmospheric pollutants in situ. The technique is demonstrated in the laboratory for NO diluted in pure nitrogen at 560 mbar. The MPI current resulting from (2+1) photon ionization of NO via the resonantC ² H (v=0) state has been measured for several NO concentrations. Detection levels as low as 50 ppt have been obtained.Laboratoire associé à l'Université de Paris-Sud     

Observation of nucleon clusters in the spontaneous decay of234U

The emission of Ne and Mg nuclei was detected in the spontaneous decay of²³⁴U with probabilities of, respectively, (3.9 ±1.0) × 10^?13 and (2.3 ±0.7) × 10^?13 relative toα-decay. The upper limits of this kind of decay for²³⁵U and²³⁶U have been established. Systematics of half-lives for cluster emission are found to be similar to the Geiger-Nuttall dependence forα-decay. Some evidence for the presence of hindrance to cluster emission from the odd-mass nuclei²³³U and²³⁵U is obtained.     

Iminobis(Methylenediphosphonic) acid

Conclusions When formamide was reacted with phosphorous acid and phosphorus trichloride, the formation of iminobis(methylenediphosphonic) acid was detected.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 4, pp. 865–868, April, 1987.The authors wish to express their graditude to Yu. P. Tsentalovich for helping with the NMR spectral analysis.     

Synthesis of novel 2-perfluoroacylcyclohexane-1,3-diones

A one-pot synthesis of 2-perfluoroalkanoylcyclohexane-1,3-diones via C-acylation of cyclohexane-1,3-diones with N-perfluoroacylimidazole as an acylating agent is reported. A reaction was examined with isolated N-trifluoroacetylimidazole and with N-perfluoroacylimidazoles generated in situ from perfluorocarboxylic acid anhydrides or perfluorocarboxylic acids.
