Reactions of dodecacarbonyltriruthenium with α,β-unsaturated ketones. Crystal and molecular structures of two reaction products

The thermal reactions of Ru₃(CO)₁₂ with RCOCH=CHPh (R=Me, p-MeC₆H₄) in hydrocarbon solvents lead to the formation of a series of complexes, several of which have been isolated as individual compounds by chromatography. The dinuclear complex Ru₂(-H)(CO)₆(-MeCOCH=CPh) and the tetranuclear complex Ru₄(-H)(-CO)(CO)₇(p-MeC ₆H₄ COCH=CPh)(-p-MeC₆H₄COCH=CPh)(₄-p-MeC₆H₃COCH=CHPh) are characterized by an X-ray structural study. The structures of other reaction products are discussed on the basis of spectral data. The reactions are accompanied by reduction of the starting enones to the corresponding unsaturated ketones.Translated fromIzvestiya Akademii Nauk.

Bayesian Estimation for the Order of INAR(q) Mo del

In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the order of INAR(q) model on the basis of the Bayesian estimation theory. The Bayesian es-timator for the order is given with respect to a squared-error loss function. The consistency of the estimator is discussed. The results of a simulation study for the estimation method are presented.     

q value and parent energy optimization using a low-voltage ionization approach increases resolution in linear ion trap mass spectrometry

In this work, the isolation step in the linear ion trap was performed using different “q values” conditions at a low collision-induced dissociation (CID) energy leading to the parent ion resolution improvements, reasonably due to better ion energy distribution. According to the results, we obtained a greater resolution and mass accuracy operating in both traditional electrospray and low voltage ionization near the q value = 0.778 and with a CID energy of 10%. This effect was evaluated with low-molecular-mass compounds (skatole and arginine). The proposed optimization yielded a superior instrument performance without adding technological complexity to mass spectrometry analyses.     

Three-dimensional constitutive equations for Ni–Mn–Ga single crystals

This paper presents a formulation of isothermal three-dimensional (3D) quasi-static magneto-mechanical constitutive equations and 3D magnetisation constitutive equations for tetragonal martensite Ni–Mn–Ga FSMA single crystals (c/a<1)$(c/a<1)$ with both ends restrained from twin-boundary motion. The formulated 3D constitutive equations model the 3D quasi-static magnetic fields as well as the coupling between uniaxial strains and stresses, and shear strains and stresses. The constitutive equations are compared with experimental results available in the literature and are found to correlate well with the experimental results, including magnetic field reversals. Both sets of 3D constitutive equations require only macroscopic parameters that are readily obtainable from magnetisation and mechanical stress–strain curves.     

Shocks and cold fronts in galaxy clusters

The currently operating X-ray imaging observatories provide us with an exquisitely detailed view of the Megaparsec-scale plasma atmospheres in nearby galaxy clusters. At z<0.05$z<0.05$, the Chandra  's 1^″$1^{″}$ angular resolution corresponds to linear resolution of less than a kiloparsec, which is smaller than some interesting linear scales in the intracluster plasma. This enables us to study the previously unseen hydrodynamic phenomena in clusters: classic bow shocks driven by the infalling subclusters, and the unanticipated “cold fronts,” or sharp contact discontinuities between regions of gas with different entropies. The ubiquitous cold fronts are found in mergers as well as around the central density peaks in “relaxed” clusters. They are caused by motion of cool, dense gas clouds in the ambient higher-entropy gas. These clouds are either remnants of the infalling subclusters, or the displaced gas from the cluster's own cool cores.     

New q‐Hermite polynomials: characterization,operators algebra and associated coherent states

This paper addresses a construction of new q‐Hermite polynomials with a full characterization of their main properties and corresponding raising and lowering operator algebra. The three‐term recursive relation as well as the second‐order differential equation obeyed by these new polynomials are explicitly derived. Relevant operator actions, including the eigenvalue problem of the deformed oscillator and the self‐adjointness of the related position and momentum operators, are investigated and analyzed. The associated coherent states are constructed and discussed with an explicit resolution of the induced moment problem. The phase collapse in a q‐deformed boson system is studied.     

Synthesis and characterization of visible light responsive N-TiO2 mixed crystal by a modified hydrothermal process

N doped TiO₂ with anatase and rutile mixed crystal were prepared by using tetrabutyl titanate as the precursor via a modified hydrothermal process and calcination at 320 °C. The microstructure and morphology of samples were characterized by XRD, UV-vis-DRS, FTIR and XPS. The results showed that N-TiO₂ particles were crystallized to anatase and rutile mixed crystal structure; they were presented narrow particle size distribution, and the average particle size was ca. 13.5 nm calculated from XRD results. It was found that the N-doped TiO₂ particles showed strong visible-light absorption and high photocatalytic activity for the mineralization of Rhodamine B under irradiation by visible light (400-500 nm). The high visible-light photocatalytic activity of the obtained N-doped TiO₂ might result from the synergetic effect of nitrogen doping and the mixed lattice structure of N-TiO₂. Possible mechanism of N-TiO₂ mixed crystal formed under hydrothermal conditions was discussed.
