Melt‐state polymer chain dimensions as a function of temperature

The unperturbed chain dimensions (〈R²〉_o/M) of cis/trans‐1,4‐polyisoprene, a near‐atactic poly(methyl methacrylate), and atactic polyolefins were measured as a function of temperature in the melt state via small‐angle neutron scattering (SANS). The polyolefinic materials were derived from polydienes or polystyrene via hydrogenation or deuteration and represent structures not encountered commercially. The parent polymers were prepared via lithium‐based anionic polymerizations in cyclohexane with, in some cases, a polymer microstructure modifier present. The polyolefins retained the near‐monodisperse molecular weight distributions exhibited by the precursor materials. The melt SANS‐based chain dimension data allowed the evaluation of the temperature coefficients [dln 〈R²〉_o/dT(κ)] for these polymers. The evaluated polymers obeyed the packing length (p)‐based expressions of the plateau modulus, G = kT/np³ (MPa), and the entanglement molecular weight, M_e = ρN_anp³ (g mol^?1), where n_t denotes the number (～21) of entanglement strands in a cube with the dimensions of the reptation tube diameter (d_t) and ρ is the chain density. The product np³ is the displaced volume (V_e) of an entanglement that is also expressible as pd or kT/G. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part B: Polym Phys 40: 1768–1776, 2002     

Sediment records of Sb and Pb stable isotopic ratios in Lake Qinghai

A sediment core in Lake Qinghai in northwest China was collected in 2006. ¹³⁷Cs and ²¹⁰Pb activities were analyzed to investigate the chronology of the sediment core. Sb and Pb concentrations, and Pb stable isotopic ratios were analyzed to study the historical atmospheric deposition records and sources of Sb over the past 15 centuries. The Sb concentration was 4.21 ± 1.52 μg/g in the sediments, its vertical distribution of Sb shows three large peaks in the recent two centuries, 1799, 1896 and 1944, coincided with Sb contamination from large wars, respectively. The peak in 1920 responded the large earthquake that happened in northern China, which was not far away from Lake Qinghai. The Sb/Pb ratio, ²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁷Pb and ²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁶Pb results suggest that Sb and Pb were probably from the ores in South China and coals in North China before 1965, but obviously from uses of leaded gasoline after 1965.

Mechanism of proton anisotropic velocity distribution in the solar wind

Although it has been long that spacecraft observed the anisotropy of velocity protons in the solar wind, there is still not a reasonable explanation. In this paper we try to give an explanation from the diffusion plateau of protoncyclotron resonance predicted by the quasi-linear theory for the resonance between the protons and the parallel propagating waves. We consider the effect of dispersion relation on diffusion plateau and notice that the diffusion plateau we have got by using cold plasma dispersion relation accords with the density contours in the velocity phase space detected at 0.3 AU in fast solar wind. For explaining proton distributions obtained in the fast solar wind from 0.7 AU to 1 AU hot plasma dispersion relation should be considered. We also give a theoretical relation of proton thermal anisotropy A and plasma parameter β.     

Linear elastico-viscous properties of molten standard polystyrenes

This paper contains an extensive presentation of dynamic mechanical data (complex moduli), as obtained on the melts of a series of standard polystyrenes of narrow molar mass distributions. It also shows the way of obtaining structural parameters (plateau modulus and friction factor) which are needed for an interpretation of these data in terms of simple theoretical models (Maxwell elements, Doi-Edwards model). A linear mixing rule is used for taking into account the finite width of the molar mass distributions.Dedicated to Prof. F. R. Schwarzl on the occasion of his 60th birthday

黄土高原中部秋季干湿的年际和年代际环流异常特征及与海温的多尺度相关性研究

黄土高原地区作为气候敏感区和生态脆弱区地表干 湿状况的年际和年代际变化特征十分明显. 但以往主要是针对夏季进行分析, 而对黄土高原秋季干湿变化规律及大气环流机理的认识非常有限. 本文基于中国589站最近50 a (1961–2010年)月降水和气温月平均资料、NCEP/NCAR提供的再分析资料以及NOAA提供的海表温度(Sea Surface Temperature, SST) 资料, 运用带通/低通滤波、小波分析、EOF/REOF和回归分析等方法, 在对中国秋季干湿时空演化分类的基础上, 通过研究秋季黄土高原中部干湿演变周期、大气环流特征及与海温的多尺度相关关系, 以揭示影响黄土高原中部秋季干湿变化的物理机理, 并确定影响该区域干湿状况的前兆信号. 小波功率谱分析表明, 黄土高原中部秋季干湿指数存在准4 a和准8 a的周期, 1970–1990年准8 a尺度周期振荡尤为明显. 年际(周期≤ 8 a) 尺度上偏湿年的大气环流特征是, 欧亚大陆中高纬呈“双阻型”, 200 hPa西风急流显著北移, 日本海-鄂霍茨克海受反气旋控制, 其底部的偏东水汽输送带将水汽输入研究区. 年代际(周期 > 8 a)尺度上偏湿年的大气环流特征是, 东亚大陆为一致的低值系统; 200 hPa东亚副热带西风急流减弱北移, 研究区主要水汽来源由经孟加拉湾在中南半岛转向的南风水汽输送及中纬度的西风水汽输送组成. 整个序列上, Nino3区SST指数(Nino3I)超前5个月与秋季干湿指数已呈显著的负相关关系, 而孟加拉湾–中国南海SST指数(BayI)则超前3个月与干湿指数呈现显著的负相关关系. 年际尺度上, 秋季Nino3I, BayI均与秋季干湿指数存在显著相关(准4 a, 4–6 a), 而年代际尺度上, 只有BayI与秋季干湿指数存在显著相关性(准10 a). 黄土高原中部秋季干湿的年际和年代际周期的确定、大气环流异常特征的认识及与海温的多尺度相关关系的建立, 不仅揭示了影响该区域干湿变化的物理机理, 也为干旱气候预测提供了重要的前兆信号. 关键词： 黄土高原中部 干湿特征 海表温度 小波分析     

Mössbauer Spectroscopic Study on Vertical Distribution of Iron Species in Sediments from Qinghai Lake,China

In this study, ⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy has been applied to sediments collected from Qinghai Lake in Qinghai Province, China, to investigate the vertical distribution of iron species. Their Mössbauer spectra consisted of four doublets ascribable to one paramagnetic high-spin Fe³⁺, two paramagnetic high-spin Fe²⁺ with different quadrupole splittings, and one diamagnetic low-spin Fe²⁺ that corresponds to pyrite (FeS₂). The distribution of pyrite suggested climatic changes during the past nine thousand years. It was demonstrated that the iron speciation in the salt lake sediments by Mössbauer spectroscopy can be used to reconstruct the past environment.

IPG with electrodic plateaus (and other unusual procedures for 2-DE)

We describe some simple changes to the geometry of the IPG strips that make them suitable to the loading of very large sample volumes and of high-salt solutions. Of special relevance is the possibility of using strips with immobilized plateau(s) to either side of the gradient, or to both, also in connection with in-gel rehydration protocols and focusing in stock trays. The only requirement to achieve this is to leave the all-ready-made attitude and go back to custom polymerization of the IPGs in one's laboratory.
