Creation of electron-positron pairs in the collision of heavy atomic nuclei. Systematic quantum-mechanical approach

The creation of electron-positron pairs in the collision of two heavy nuclei is considered. A systematic quantum-mechanical approach is developed for the complete electron-nuclear system. The finite size of the nuclei and the possible resonances of the superheavy compound nucleus formed from the initial nuclei are taken into account. The energetic approach known in the theory of the breakdown of quasisteady systems is generalized to the case of the collisional problem. This approach is combined with perturbation theory for the complete electron-nuclear system. The rearrangement of the negative-continuum spectrum is taken into account using the procedure of [14], which is generalized with the aim of introducing additional conditions, in particular, the condition associated with correct choice of the zero approximation. The method is the same for Z < Z_cr and Z > Z_cr, where Z_cr is the minimum nuclear charge at which spontaneous pair creation is possible. The contribution of the spontaneous channel to the amplitude of the process is automatically taken into account.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 97–107, August, 1990.

Final results on μe-pair production in neutrino interactions in the SKAT freon bubble chamber experiment

We present the final results from the search for μe pairs produced in neutrino interactions using the freon filled bubble chamber SKAT. The rate of μ^? e ⁺ pairs to charged current events above the charm threshold is \(R_{\mu ^ - e^ + } = (4.8 \pm 1.1)10^{ - 3} \) . Assuming charm particle production to be the origin of the positron we calculate \(R_{\Lambda _c^ + } = (6.2 \pm 3.1)10^{ - 2} \) andR _D =(2.8±0.9)10^?2. We observe no considerable μ^? e ^? pair production above the background. In the regionE _v >3 GeV,p _μ,e >1.0 GeV/c andp _μ>p _e we find with a 90% confidence level the limit \(R_{\mu ^ - e^ - }< 1.7 10^{ - 4} \) .     

Synthesis and spectroscopic study of hexadecaalkyl-substituted rare-earth diphthalocyanines

New hexadecaalkyl-substituted diphthalocyanine complexes of lanthanides ^RPc₂Ln (R = Et, or Bu; Ln = Lu, Dy, or Eu) were synthesized by three methods: in solution in the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene, in a melt of a mixture of the reagents, and under microwave irradiation. The first of the above-mentioned procedures has an advantage for the preparation of Dy and Eu diphthalocyanines, whereas the melt synthesis is a method of choice for the preparation of Lu complexes. The reaction time decreases in going from the first to the third method. The structures of the complexes were confirmed by mass spectrometry, NMR spectroscopy, and electronic absorption spectroscopy.

Topochemical investigations of peptide systems

The basic principles of the topochemical approach to the investigation of the structure-function relation in peptide systems are formulated. This approach makes use of the new possibility of transforming natural peptides, consisting in the modification of the molecule as a whole and utilization of the resultant analogs to elucidate the boundaries of the stereoelectronic complementarity of the biologically active peptide to the corresponding receptor. In particular, on the example of depsipeptide antibiotics and their topochemical analogs the fruitfulness of using such compounds as tools in elucidating the physicochemical basis of functioning of biological membranes is shown. The topochemical principle has also been applied in preparing specific competitive inhibitors of proteolytic enzymes, whose study may shed light on the nature of the forces binding the substrate to the contact site of the corresponding enzyme.     

Retention of analgin and anesthesin on sorbents with different polarities: The analysis of bellalgin tablets by high-performance liquid chromatography

The effects of acetonitrile and potassium dihydrogen phosphate concentrations in a mobile phase and the pH of the mobile phase on the retention of analgin (dipyrone) and anesthesin (benzocaine) on Symmetry C18 and Nova-Pak CN HP sorbents with grafted octadecylsilanol and nitrile groups, respectively, were studied. It was found that, under identical conditions, retention on the sorbent with grafted nitrile groups was weaker. A rapid and cost-effective procedure was developed for the determination of analgin and anesthesin in the analysis of Bellalgin tablets.     

Kinetic-chromatographic determination of 4-methylaminoantipyrine in Pentalgin N and Pentalgin FS tablets

4-Methylaminoantipyrine (4-MAAP) is the main product of analgin decomposition in aqueous-organic solutions used in the analysis of Pentalgin N and Pentalgin FS tablets. The determination of 4-MAAP in tablets is complicated by the fast decomposition of analgin in the course of sample dissolution. The use of nonaqueous solvents in subsequent HPLC analysis is unreasonable, because the shapes of analyte peaks are deteriorated and the decomposition of analgin is not prevented. A procedure for the kinetic-chromatographic determination of both 4-MAAP in tablets and its amount at the moment of sample dissolution is proposed.
