String behaviour of magnetic field lines and their rotation in neutron star’s interior

It is found from Maxwell’s equations that the magnetic field lines are good analogues of relativistic strings. The Lorentz force per unit length of magnetic tube is interpretable as Magnus force acting on each individual magnetic tube. It is shown that the superconducting current in pulsar’s interior causes local rotation of magnetic flux tubes carrying quantized flux. Such local rotation remains operative as long as the induced magnetic field of normal electron fluid is above the lower critical field but below the upper. The conservation of magnetic flux leads to a geometrical condition in the form of the Weingarten identity which ensures the existence of family of “magnetic world sheetrdquo;. Each “magnetic world sheet” is a magnetic flux conserving surface. In the process of collapse, a compact spacelike cross-section of a magnetic tube terminates into a trapped surface if the magnetic energy grows faster along the fluid flow lines than that along the magnetic field lines.     

Intermolecular Vibrational Relaxation in Mixtures of Excited Benzophenone and Anthraquinone Molecules with Water Vapor

The intermolecular vibrational energy transfer from triplet molecules of benzophenone and anthraquinone to H₂O molecules has been investigated. To determine the rates of establishment of vibrational (V-V) and thermal (V-T) equilibrium in a vibrational quasi-continuum of mixed singlet-triplet levels, the dependences of the decay rates and intensities of the fast and slow components of delayed fluorescence on the H₂O vapor pressure have been investigated. For V-V relaxation, the efficiencies ₁ and the mean energies E transferred per collision in mixtures with H₂O and other polyatomic foreign gases have been compared. It has been established that the efficiencies ₁ for quasi-resonant vibrational energy transfer (V-V) from benzophenone and anthraquinone to H₂O are an order of magnitude lower than the gas-kinetic ones and lower than those obtained under the same experimental conditions for such foreign gases as C₅H₁₂, SF₆, and CCl₄, and decrease with increasing temperature in the 433–513 K range. It has been concluded that the mechanism of V-V relaxation in mixtures with H₂O are determined by long-range attractive forces. In mixtures with H₂O, no acceleration of V-T relaxation due to the formation of hydrogen bonds has been revealed. The low-efficiency thermalization process (V-T relaxation) is controlled by short-range repulsive forces, and the differences between the intensities ₂ for mixtures of benzophenone and anthraquinone with H₂O and other polyatomic gases are determined by the change in the reduced mass of interacting molecules.     

Some Logical Implications of the Two Einstein Assumptions Used in His Analysis of Geometry on a Relativistically Rotating Disc

We show that with the help of the two well known Einstein assumptions used by him in the treatment of geometry on relativistically rotating disc, and elementary logical analysis only, two different and opposite models of rotating discs can be constructed: In one of them the disc, set rotating from the stationary state, changes neither its radius nor circumference, as measured from stationary inertial frame; while in the other both the radius and the circumference contract by the same Lorentz factor. We also show that one can construct discs whose contraction factors vary continuously from unity (no contraction) to the full Lorentz factor.     

Time resolve study on isopropyl-ether porphyrindiol

In the past years extensive studies have been conducted on porphyrin-type photosensitizers because of their photosensitive activity. With regard to their interaction with many important macromolecules such as nucleic acids, proteins and lipids, porphyrin-type photosensitizers are capable of damaging numerous cells. They damage DNA via oxidation of four bases, especially guanine and cytosine pairs[1], damage protein by oxidation of (at least) two amino acids——cysteine and tryptophan residues…     

Chemiluminecsence in the oxidation of Na2C60 by the (NH4)2Ce(NO3)6 complex in THF

Chemiluminescence (_max = 790 nm) in the oxidation of fulleride Na₂C₆₀ by the (NH₄)₂Ce(NO₃)₆ complex in THF was found. The ³C₆₀* triplet of fullerene formed in the transfer of an electron from the intermediate C₆₀ ^– anion to Ce^IV was suggested to be the chemiluminescence emitter.     

Are Axidilaton Stars Massive Compact Halo Objects?

Boson stars built from a very light Kalb–Ramond axion, the dilaton or other moduli fields of effective string models could provide a considerable fraction of the non-baryonic part of dark matter. Gravitational microlensing of 0.5 M MACHOs within the halo of galaxies may indirectly "weighing" the mass of the constituent scalar particle, resulting in 10^–10 eV/c².     

The Gravitational Field of a Radiating and Contracting Spherically-Symmetric Body with Heat Flow

A model of a highly idealized spherically symmetric object radiating away its mass with constant luminosity is presented. The body starts at t = – with both infinite mass and radius and contracts to a point at t = 0 without forming an event horizon. Its material particles are moving non-geodesically and shearfree while transporting heat to the surface. Unlike in some radiating star models of a similar type, all physically required conditions are satisfied in this model.

Synthesis of H‐shaped complex macromolecular structures by combination of atom transfer radical polymerization,photoinduced radical coupling,ring‐opening polymerization,and iniferter processes

Three controlled/living polymerization processes, namely atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP), ring‐opening polymerization (ROP) and iniferter polymerization, and photoinduced radical coupling reaction were combined for the preparation of ABCBD‐type H‐shaped complex copolymer. First, α‐benzophenone functional polystyrene (BP‐PS) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (BP‐PMMA) were prepared independently by ATRP. The resulting polymers were irradiated to form ketyl radicals by hydrogen abstraction of the excited benzophenone moieties present at each chain end. Coupling of these radicals resulted in the formation of polystyrene‐b‐poly(methyl methacrylate) (PS‐b‐PMMA) with benzpinacole structure at the junction point possessing both hydroxyl and iniferter functionalities. ROP of ε‐caprolactone (CL) by using PS‐b‐PMMA as bifunctional initiator, in the presence of stannous octoate yielded the corresponding tetrablock copolymer, PCL‐PS‐PMMA‐PCL. Finally, the polymerization of tert‐butyl acrylate (tBA) via iniferter process gave the targeted H‐shaped block copolymer. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Polym. Sci., Part A: Polym.

Synthesis,characterization, and rheological properties of multiarm stars with poly(glycidol) core and poly(methyl methacrylate) arms by AGET ATRP

Well‐defined multiarm star block copolymers poly(glycidol)‐b‐poly(methyl methacrylate) (PGOHBr‐b‐PMMA_x) with an average number of PMMA arms of 85, 55, and 45 have been prepared. The core‐first approach has been selected as the methodology using atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of MMA from an activated hyperbranched poly(glycidol) as the core. These activated hyperbranched macroinitiators were prepared by esterification of hyperbranched poly(glycidol) (PGOH) with 2‐bromoisobutyryl bromide. The effect of monomer/initiator ratio, catalyst concentration, time, temperature, and solvent on the growing of the arms has been studied in detail in order to optimize the process and to diminish the radical‐radical coupling. The final products and intermediates were characterized by means of size exclusion chromatography (SEC), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and Fourier transform‐infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. The length of PMMA arms was determined by SEC after cleavage of ester bond linked to PGOH core. Glass transition temperature (T_g), thermal stability and rheological properties of the multiarm star copolymers were also studied. Finally, tapping mode atomic force microscopy (TMAFM) allowed the clear visualization of nano‐sized particles (80–200 nm) corresponding to individual star molecules. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
