The preparation and properties of “porous silicon–nickel ferrite” nanoheterocomposites for gas detectors

This paper discusses the preparation and properties of gas detectors based on “porous silicon–nickel ferrite” nanocomposites. Impedance spectroscopy was used to measure sensitivity to ethanol and isopropanol vapours in the presence of an alternating electric field. The results were interpreted with the help of an equivalent electrical circuit. In the analysis of the resistive–capacitive properties in the equivalent circuit a constant phase element was used.

Identification of archaeal proteins that affect the exosome function in vitro

Background  

The archaeal exosome is formed by a hexameric RNase PH ring and three RNA binding subunits and has been shown to bind and degrade RNA in vitro. Despite extensive studies on the eukaryotic exosome and on the proteins interacting with this complex, little information is yet available on the identification and function of archaeal exosome regulatory factors.     

Direct 13C-13C spin-spin coupling constants in the vinyl group of N-vinylazoles

The unshared electron pair of the dicoordinated nitrogen atom introduces a stereospecific contribution to the ¹³C-¹³C spin-spin coupling constant (SSCC) in the vinyl group of a series of N-vinylazoles, the value of which depends on the energetics of the unshared pair.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 2, pp. 197–200, February, 1989.     

On the total binding energy of spherical nuclei

The total binding energy of nuclei is determined by means of many-body field theory. The problem is then reduced to finding the energy-dependent average potential (mass operator) and solving the single-particle equations of motion. Such a potential can be established phenomenologically by using data on low excitations and reactions knocking out nucleons from deep “hole” levels. Calculations of the total binding energy of the nuclei ¹⁶O, ⁴⁰Ca and ⁵⁸Ni with this potential are in satisfactory agreement with experiment.
