Abstract

Quantum mechanical calculations using the GAUSSIAN 76 system of programs are used to suggest a possible mechanism for the acid-induced free-radical decomposition of hydroperoxides.     

高温超导薄膜生长机理初探

在3×10×0.5mm3的LaAlO3(001)基片上,利用直流磁控溅射生长一层厚度约为700nm的非晶态Tl2Ba2CaCu2Ox先驱薄膜.将先驱薄膜与热处理过的Tl2Ba2Ca2Cu3Oy块材(作为Tl源)一起在720～860℃温度下退火.为了研究薄膜的初期成核情况,退火时间一般为5分钟.利用XRD和完全抗磁性测试方法对样品的成相情况进行研究,结果显示,在薄膜生长的初期,较高的退火温度可以获得较大尺寸的初期生长核,但是退火温度达到860℃时,初期成核的晶粒尺寸变小.     

Mass measurements in the endpoint region of the rp-process at SHIPTRAP

The Penning-trap mass spectrometer SHIPTRAP was designed for precision mass measurements of radionuclides produced in fusion–evaporation reactions. The latest measurement campaign covered heavy nuclei (A>90) related to the astrophysical rapid proton capture process. The masses of 34 neutron-deficient radionuclides have been measured since February 2006 with relative uncertainties between 5×10⁻⁸ and 1×10⁻⁷. Furthermore, the use of an octupolar RF excitation for the time-of-flight ion-cyclotron-resonance technique was investigated and an increase of the resolving power by a factor of ten was observed in agreement with simulations. This will allow to resolve isomeric states with excitation energies of a few 10 keV only.

Analysis of lipid peroxidation biomarkers in extremely low gestational age neonate urines by UPLC-MS/MS

Extremely low gestational age neonates (ELGAN) frequently require the use of oxygen supply in the delivery room leading to systemic inflammation and oxidative stress that are responsible for increased morbidity and mortality. The objective of this study was to establish reference ranges of a set of representative isoprostanes and prostaglandins, which are stable biomarkers of lipid peroxidation often correlated with oxidative stress-related disorders. First, a quantitative ultra performance liquid chromatography—tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) method was developed and validated. The proposed analytical method was tailored for its application in the field of neonatology, enabling multi-analyte detection in non-invasive, small-volume urine samples. Then, the lipid peroxidation product concentrations in a total of 536 urine samples collected within the framework of two clinical trials including extremely low gestational age neonates (ELGAN) were analyzed. The access to a substantially large number of samples from this very vulnerable population provided the chance to establish reference ranges of the studied biomarkers. Up to the present, and for this population, this is the biggest reference data set reported in literature. Results obtained should assist researchers and pediatricians in interpreting test results in future studies involving isoprostanes and prostaglandins, and could help assessing morbidities and evaluate effectiveness of treatment strategies (e.g., different resuscitation conditions) in the neonatal field.

Ground state hyperfine structure of heavy hydrogen like ions

Laser spectroscopy of highly charged heavy ions in the storage ring provides an excellent tool for a test of QED in ultra-high electric and magnetic fields. Discrepancies between experimental and theoretical values are so far mainly explained by uncertainties of nuclear properties. New experimental possibilities can avoid these problems by additional measurements in lithium-like systems.

The measurement of the electronic g-factor in hydrogen-like ions --A promising tool for determining fundamental and nuclear constants

We describe a double-Penning-trap experiment suitable for testing QED in strong fields by determining the electronic g-factor of a single hydrogen-like ion in its ground state. Our measurements on ¹²C^{5 +} reach a relative accuracy of 2×10^-9, where the largest uncertainty results from the mass of the electron. Together with equally precise theoretical predictions therefore, it is possible to evaluate a new value for the electron's mass. The possibilities to obtain other fundamental constants and nuclear parameters are lined out.
