Beyond the standard model: Working group report

This report summarises the activities of the working group on ‘Physics beyond the Standard Model’. The results of investigations in incorporatingR-parity in grand unification, the possibility of a light charged Higgs boson in extension of MSSM and radiative generation of neutral vector boson self-couplings within the MSSM are described. Also given is an account of activities in neutrino physics, namely a proposal for a study of the atmospheric muon anomaly in deep underground mines, a field theoretic study of neutrino oscillations and a mechanism to generate appropriate masses of three active plus one sterile neutrino species.     

Neutrinoless double beta decay with small and hierarchical neutrino mass

We construct a model where neutrino Majorana masses are small and hierarchical but where neutrinoless double beta decay occurs at an observable rate potentially detectable by present day experiments.     

Mass measurements of neutron-deficient nuclides close to A = 80 with a Penning trap

The masses of ^{80, 81, 82, 83}Y, ^{83, 84, 85, 86, 88}Zr and ^{85, 86, 87, 88}Nb have been measured with a typical precision of 7keV by using the Penning trap setup at IGISOL. The mass of ⁸⁴Zr has been measured for the first time. These precise mass measurements have improved S_p and Q_EC values for astrophysically important nuclides.     

刚性元方法和块状岩体稳定性分析

本文提出的刚性元方法是一种数值分析方法,它将变形体离散为一些刚性块体(剐性元)和块体之间的可变形薄层(节理元)的组合体,在各种载荷条件下求出块体的运动以及薄层的变形和应力分布。本文联合岩石系统的失稳准则来使用刚性元方法,成功地研究了块状岩体的稳定性问题。计算实例表明,本文提出的方法可以正确地反映块状岩体的失稳机制,是一种合理和可行的岩体稳定性分析手段。     

频响函数综合法预测结构在水下的动特性

通过对一个结构模型在空气中和水下的动特性的研究，探讨了由结构在空气中的模态参数和水的附加质量预测结构在水下的模态参数的频响函数综合法，用以替代实体结构在水下的动特性试验。应用这种方法预测得到了结构在水下的模态参数并与结构的湿模态试验结果进行了对比。研究结果表明，对于所研究的梁形结构，不考虑水的阻尼，将水对结构的影响考虑成为附加质量，应用频响函数综合法预测结构在水下的模态参数是可行的     

公司价值与财务信息的相关性:基于中国上市公司的研究

本文以778家上市公司1998—2002年5年间的3890个观测值为样本,研究了公司价值与财务信息的相关性。结果表明,ST、PT公司的价值测度与综合短期利润测度存在不显著的负相关关系;既发行A股又发行B股的上市公司的价值测度与综合短期利润测度在0.01水平下显著正相关性,利润测度提供了约2%的公司价值解释力;对于绝大多数的经营正常的A股公司,价值测度与综合短期利润测度在0.01水平下显著正相关性,利润测度提供了约18%的公司价值解释力。     

高效液相色谱-四极杆-飞行时间质谱快速筛查鉴别食品中非法添加的62种中药材北大核心CSCD

建立了高效液相色谱-四极杆-飞行时间质谱快速筛查鉴别食品中非法添加的62种中药材的方法。依据卫生部关于进一步规范保健食品原料管理的通知(卫法监发[2002]51号)中可用于保健食品的物品名单,确定食品中可能非法添加的62种中药材原料清单,再从62种中药材中筛选其特征组分,获得不同中药材对应的特征组分清单。62种对照药材经甲醇超声提取后,于Thermo Accucore aQ色谱柱(150 mm×2.1 mm,2.6μm)上分离,在电喷雾正负离子扫描模式下,分别以0.1%(v/v)甲酸水溶液-乙腈和水-乙腈为流动相梯度洗脱,进行一级质谱和二级质谱全扫描检测,采用Library View软件建立不同中药材对应的特征组分的一级精确质量数据库和二级碎片质谱库。样品同法处理后上样分析,采用Peak View软件将样品高分辨数据与自建数据库中的质谱图、精确分子离子质量数、碎片离子质量数、保留时间等相关参数进行快速筛查鉴别分析。该工作通过建立“中药材-特征组分”对应清单,构建了食品中易非法添加的62种中药材中共388种特征组分的高分辨质谱库,每种中药材包括5~10种特征组分,通过对实际食品样品配制酒、代用茶及饮料进行筛查分析,1批次配制酒样品与淫羊藿中药材的7种特征组分匹配一致,推断该配制酒样品中加入了淫羊藿中药材。该法可实现无标准品情况下中药材的定性筛查,具有高通量、准确、简便、快捷的特点,解决了食品中非法添加中药材难以识别和确证的难题,可以实现食品中非法添加中药材的快速筛查鉴别分析。     

Cooling,identification and spectroscopy of super-heavy element ions

We briefly discuss some possibilities for cooling, identification and spectroscopy of super-heavy element (SHE) ions based on recent results obtained from studies of atomic and molecular ions in linear rf traps. Since these investigations only relied on the charge and the mass of the ion of interest, we believe it should be straight forward to adopt most of the techniques for SHE ion research.     

Decay of proton-rich nuclei between 39Ti and 49Ni

Decay studies of very neutron-deficient nuclei ranging from ³⁹Ti to ⁴⁹Ni have been performed during a projectile fragmentation experiment at the GANIL/LISE3 separator. For all nuclei studied in this work, ^{39, 40}Ti, ^{42, 43}Cr, ⁴⁶Mn, ^{45, 46, 47}Fe and ⁴⁹Ni, half-lives and decay spectra have been measured. In a few cases, γ coincidence measurements helped to successfully identify the initial and final states of transitions. In these cases, partial decay scheme are proposed. For the most exotic isotopes, ³⁹Ti, ⁴²Cr, ⁴⁵Fe and ⁴⁹Ni, which are candidates for two-proton radioactivity from the ground state, no clear evidence of this process is seen in our spectra and we conclude rather on a delayed particle decay.

Temperature-controlled change of charge transport mechanisms in nonionic water-in-oil microemulsions

 The temperature-controlled transition from the Stokes charge transport of aqueous nanodroplets to the intrinsic conduction of nanodroplet clusters in nonionic microemulsions was studied. Two different charge transport processes apparent from a minimum value of the conductance have been simulated based on straightforward physical models. Their predictions compare favourably with the observations. Received: 4 September 2001 Accepted: 20 September 2001
