Characterization of two irradiation positions for fission track dating at the Lena Triga Mark II reactor

In the present paper the use of two natural uranium dosimeters is described. Data are compared with fluence values obtained by using NIST glass standards and the traditional activation of metal foils. Finally an example is reported for application of neutron dosimetry to the dating of the Fish Canyon Tuff age standard.     

Quantum groups in the higgs phase

In the Higgs phase we may be left with a residual finite symmetry groupH of the condensate. The topological interactions between the magnetic and electric excitations in these so-called discreteH gauge theories are completely described by the Hopf algebra or quantum groupD(H). In 2+1 dimensional space time we may add a Chern-Simons term to such a model. This deforms the underlying Hopf algebraD(H) into the quasi-Hopf algebraD (H) by means of a 3-cocycle onH. Consequently, the finite number of physically inequivalent discreteH gauge theories obtained in this way are labelled by the elements of the cohomology groupH ³(H,U(1)). We briefly review the above results in these notes. Special attention is given to the Coulomb screening mechanism operational in the Higgs phase. This mechanism screens the Coulomb interactions, but not the Aharonov-Bohm interactions.Translated from Teoreticheskaya i Matematicheskaya Fizika, Vol. 98. No. 3, pp. 509–523, March, 1994     

Synthesis and X-ray analysis of 1-((1S)-phenylethyl)-azetidine-(2R)-piperidinamide

The crystal and molecular structure of a new azetidine-2-carboxylic amide derivative is described. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least squares methods toR1=0.0393 for 4264 reflections (withI>2(I)) The structure consists of two independent molecules which are chemically the same with slight differences in geometry. Crystal data: C₁₇H₂₄N₂O, monoclinic, space groupP2₁,a=8.3782(4),b=20.0342(13),c=9.7769(8) Å, =109.687(6)°,V=1545.1(2)ų,Z=4.
