J/ψ polarization in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV

The ALICE Collaboration has studied J/ψ production in pp collisions at √s=7 TeV at the LHC through its muon pair decay. The polar and azimuthal angle distributions of the decay muons were measured, and results on the J/ψ polarization parameters λ(θ) and λ(φ) were obtained. The study was performed in the kinematic region 2.5相似文献   

Femtosecond Dynamics of Dioxygen - Picket-Fence Cobalt Porphyrins: Ultrafast Release of O(2) and the Nature of Dative Bonding

The ultrafast release of O(2) from the O(2) adduct of picket-fence cobalt porphyrin (see picture) has been probed in real time, and has a total reaction time of 2 ps, without subsequent recombination over several nanoseconds. The dynamics of this ultrafast release of O(2) shows that relaxation within the porphyrin system (200 fs) precedes porphyrin-to-metal electron transfer, but the latter occurs at an enhanced rate (500 fs as opposed to the more usual 1 - 2 ps) because of the dative bonding of cobalt and O(2), which gives the adduct ground state significant Co(III)-O(2)(-) character.

Structure and magnetic properties of a decanuclear Mn(II)₂Mn(III)₂Dy₆ aggregate

Using glycerol (H?gly) as a primary ligand, the decanuclear aggregate [Mn(II)?Mn(III)?Dy?(μ?-OH)?(Hgly)?(H?gly)?-(PhCO?)??(H?O)?]·10CH?CN (1) has been synthesised; it has a structure built up from two Mn?Dy? heterocubane units linked through a central Dy?(μ-benzoate)? paddle-wheel dimer and shows slow relaxation of its magnetisation.     

A family of 3d-4f octa-nuclear [Mn(III)(4)Ln(III)(4)] wheels (Ln = Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Y): synthesis, structure, and magnetism

We present the syntheses, crystal structures, and magnetochemical characterizations for a family of isostructural [Mn(4)Ln(4)] compounds (Ln = Sm, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, and Y). They were prepared from the reactions of formic acid, propionic acid, N-n-butyl-diethanolamine, manganese perchlorate, and lanthanide nitrates under the addition of triethylamine in MeOH. The compounds possess an intriguing hetero-octanuclear wheel structure with four Mn(III) and four Ln(III) ions alternatively arranged in a saddle-like ring, where formate ions act as key carboxylate bridges. In the lattice, the molecules stack into columns in a quasi-hexagonal arrangement. Direct current (dc) magnetic susceptibility measurements indicated the depopulation of the Stark components at low temperature and/or very weak antiferromagnetic interactions between magnetic centers. The zero-field alternating current (ac) susceptibility studies revealed that the compounds containing Sm, Tb, and Dy showed frequency-dependent out-of-phase signals, indicating they are single-molecule magnets (SMMs). Magnetization versus applied dc field sweeps on a single crystal of the Dy compound down to 40 mK exhibited hysteresis depending on temperatures and field sweeping rates, further confirming that the Dy compound is a SMM. The magnetization dynamics of the Sm and Y compounds investigated under dc fields revealed that the relaxation of the Sm compound is considered to be dominated by the two-phonon (Orbach) process while the Y compound displays a multiple relaxation process.     

Polymeric arrangements of P-Se anions and a first insight into their reactivity

The reactions of the P/Se-precursor Woollins' reagent [PhP(Se)mu-Se]2 with alkali-metal salts offer new perspectives for the synthesis of metal aggregates containing P-Se anions. Depending on the alkali-metal thiolates polymeric arrangements of [PhPSe3]2- or [PhPSe2Se-SeSe2PPh]2- dianions are observed and the mechanisms of their formation described.     

Influence of substituents on the through-space shielding of aromatic rings

A series of naphthalene derivatives, bearing a methyl group and a substituted phenyl ring in a 1,8-relationship, have been synthesized. The chemical shifts of the protons of the methyl group, which are pointed toward the shielding zone of the phenyl ring, were monitored as the phenyl substituents were varied. This work indicates that the shielding effect of the phenyl ring is not so severely altered by the substituents as to significantly influence the chemical shift of the methyl group. Nonetheless, within the small changes observed experimentally, there appears to be a tendency for electron-withdrawing X to shift the methyl signal downfield, whereas electron-donating X-groups cause a more upfield shift. Polarization and field effects are discussed as possible causes for this phenomenon. Chemical shifts computed for selected members of the series, using the recently published procedures of Rablen and Bally, are in agreement with the experimentally observed trends.     

天龙山石窟危岩加固方法的研究

天龙山石窟位于山西省太原市西南约40公里处，是中国著名的古代石窟群之一。20多个石窟沿天龙山东西两峰分布。由于长期受战乱影响和风雨侵蚀，石窟岩面破坏严重，山岩龟裂破碎已危及到文物本身。为了挽救这一文化遗产，笔者详尽勘测危岩分布，建立了分析模型，设计了加固方案，加固手段包括面层防风化处理，浇筑钢筋混凝土面层，锚杆，工字钢以及预制钢筋混凝土顶柱加固等。该项工程实践为以后类似工作提供了有益的经验。
