The antioxidant mechanism of nitroxide TEMPO: scavenging with glutathionyl radicals
A rhodamine-nitroxide probe (R-NOc), combining rhodamine fluorophore with a 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidinyl-1-oxy (TEMPO) receptor unit was introduced to probe glutathionyl radicals (GSc) with high sensitivity and selectivity. The R-NOc probe could effectively scavenge GSc radicals with fluorescence enhancement since the nitroxide group restored the fluorescence properties. In this work, horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-catalyzed and metal-catalyzed oxidation systems were selected as the model of simulating the generation of GSc, and we found that the metal-catalyzed system had the same experimental results with the HRP-catalyzed system, which provided a new approach to demonstrate the strong oxidant ability of the hydroxyl radical (cOH) to initiate toxic GSc. Furthermore, we confirmed that the production of GSc abided by a radical-initiated peroxidation mechanism of GSH with the mass spectrometry (MS) analysis and fluorescence spectroscopy. By using combined high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) detection and MS analysis, we also demonstrated that the R-NOc was converted into fluorescent secondary amine derivative (R-NH). The application of the probe in biological system was explored to monitor GSc in HL-60 cells and secondary amine fluorescence was observed upon stimulation by hydrogen peroxide and phenol. Development of fluorescence was prevented via preincubation with the thiol-blocking reagent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM)

Electromagnetic characteristics of the CH cavity
In this paper, we present the RF simulation, the fabrication and the normal RF test of a six-cell copper model cross bar H mode (CH) cavity. The CH cavity was researched and developed at the Institute of Modern Physics for Injector II of the superconducting linac of the accelerator driven system of China, operating at a frequency 162.5 MHz, beta=0.065. The deep drawing and electron beam welding were employed to fabricate this cavity, which would be used to develop the superconducting CH cavity in the future. The results of the normal RF test agree with the simulation of the electromagnetic properties, such as the electric field distribution on the cavity axis, frequency and Q factor
Investigation on the energy loss in low energy protons interacting with hydrogen plasma
<span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 22px; background-color: rgb(248, 248, 248);">Energy loss of protons with energy 100 keV penetrating the partially ionized hydrogen plasma target was measured. The plasma target was created by electric discharge in the hydrogen gas, the state of the plasma target was diagnosed by using the laser interferometry method: the free electron density is up to 10(16) cm(-3), temperature is about 1-2 eV, and the plasma target may exist at the microsecond level. It is found that the energy loss of protons is closely related to the free electron density, and the energy loss data enable us to infer the value of the Coulomb logarithm (10.8) for the stopping power of the free electrons. This agrees well with the theoretical prediction which is 4.3 times higher than that given by the Bethe formula for neutral hydrogen, which is a little bigger than Hoffmann's result but much smaller than Jacoby's result. Comparing our result with Hoffmann's, the energy we used is only 100 keV, much lower than 1.4 MeV/u, and the low-energy regime we applied could be the cause of the increase in the enhancement factor. However, in the comparison between our result and the Jacoby's, the effective charge for protons is almost constant, unlike the Kr+ impact in wihch the enhanced ion charge state induces the giant enhancement factor. Compared to the gas target, the energy loss enhancement factor in plasma target is 2.9.</span
