Observation of hc radiative decay hc › ??' and evidence for hc › ??
Kolcu, Onur Buğra (Arel Author) --- Makale 69 yazarlıdır.A search for radiative decays of the P-wave spin singlet charmonium resonance hc is performed based on 4.48 × 108 ? events collected with the BESIII detector operating at the BEPCII storage ring. Events of the reaction channels hc › ??' and ?? are observed with a statistical significance of 8.4? and 4.0?, respectively, for the first time. The branching fractions of hc › ??' and hc › ?? are measured to be B(hc › ??' ) = (1.52±0.27±0.29)×10-3 and B(hc › ??) = (4.7±1.5±1.4)×10-4 , respectively, where the first errors are statistical and the second are systematic uncertainties

Metabolic profiling and population screening of analgesic usage in nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy-based large-scale epidemiologic studies
The application of a 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy-based screening method for determining the use of two widely available analgesics (acetaminophen and ibuprofen) in epidemiologic studies has been investigated. We used samples and data from the cross-sectional INTERMAP Study involving participants from Japan (n = 1145), China (n = 839), U.K. (n = 501), and the U.S. (n = 2195). An orthogonal projection to latent structures discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) algorithm with an incorporated Monte Carlo resampling function was applied to the NMR data set to determine which spectra contained analgesic metabolites. OPLS-DA preprocessing parameters (normalization, bin width, scaling, and input parameters) were assessed systematically to identify an optimal acetaminophen prediction model. Subsets of INTERMAP spectra were examined to verify and validate the presence/absence of acetaminophen/ibuprofen based on known chemical shift and coupling patterns. The optimized and validated acetaminophen model correctly predicted 98.2%, and the ibuprofen model correctly predicted 99.0% of the urine specimens containing these drug metabolites. The acetaminophen and ibuprofen models were subsequently used to predict the presence/absence of these drug metabolites for the remaining INTERMAP specimens. The acetaminophen model identified 415 out of 8436 spectra as containing acetaminophen metabolite signals while the ibuprofen model identified 245 out of 8604 spectra as containing ibuprofen metabolite signals from the global data set after excluding samples used to construct the prediction models. The NMR-based metabolic screening strategy provides a new objective approach for evaluation of self-reported medication data and is extendable to other aspects of population xenometabolome profiling

VIBRATIONAL RELAXATION IN THE BINARY GASEOUS MIXTURES AND
Author Institution: Laboratoire de Spectronomie Moleculaire, Universit\'e de Paris VI, 4, Place Jussieu - Tour 13Vibrational relaxation rates for gaseous mixtures , with or , in which vibrational energy transfer can occur from the level of M to the v = 1 level of , has been measured as a function of the temperature using the laser-induced vibrational fluorescence technique. The relaxation processes which must be considered are: - the V-V transfer process: \begin{eqnarray*} &&M(00^{\circ }1)+ HC (v=0)\begin{array}{c}^{k}M-HC\ell\\ \rightleftharpoons\\ ^{k}HC\ell-M\end{array}M(00^{\circ}0)+ HC\ell(v=1)+ \Delta E=he\Delta\nu\\ &&with\ \Delta\nu=-537\, cm^{-1} for\ CO_{2}, -663\, cm ^{-1}\ for\ N_{2}O \end{eqnarray*} - the V-TR de-excitation processes: \begin{eqnarray*} M(00^{\circ}1)+ HC\ell(or M)\stackrel{k^{HC\ell}_{M}}{(o\vec{r}\; k_{M})}M(mn^{\ell}0)+HC\ell (or \; M)\\ HC\ell(v=1)+ M(or\; HC\ell)\stackrel{k^{M}_{HC\ell}}{(o\vec{r}\; k_{HC\ell})}HC\ell(v=0)+M(or \; HC\ell) \end{eqnarray*} For most of the systems in which near-resonant V-V transfers occur, the V-TR de-excitation rates are negligible compared to the V-V transfer rates. But this is not the case for the M-HC systems considered in this work. The de-excitation rates and are of the same order of magnitude as the V-V transfer rates and respectively. In order to determine separately all these rates, relaxation measurements have been performed by exciting either H to the level or to the v = 1 level, and measuring the relaxation rates versus the molar fraction of the gas excited by laser. The results are discussed and compared with the values of the rates calculated by using a Morse potential as the intermolecular potential, and according to a semi-classical method in which a vibration-rotation exchange is assumed
VIBRATIONAL COUPLINGS AND ENERGY FLOW IN COMPLEXES OF HC=CH, HC=CD, HC=CC=C, AND N=CH WITH
Author Institution: Molecular Physics Division, National Institute of Standards and Technology; Molecular Physics Divisoin, National Institute of Standards and TechnologyInfrared spectra of the C-H stretching vibrations of the symmetric-top complexes, , have been recorded using a color-center-laser electric-resonance optothermal spectrometer. Efforts to observe the N-H stretches were unsuccessful. The hydrogen-bonded C-H stretching modes of HC=CH--NH3 are strongly coupled to the hydrogen bond as evidenced by their large monomer red-shifts of 75 and and broad predissociation linewidths of 2000 ad 650-800 MHz, respectively. The complexation-induced asymmetry in is not sufficient to allow us to observe the local mode associated with the outer C-H stretch. However, isotopic substitution in shows that this mode is red shifted by less than from the monomer vibration. The narrow predissociation linewidths of this mode (7-12 MHz) are consistent with this small red shift. The weaker coupling of the C-H stretches in HC=CC=CH is completely quenched upon complexation with . The outer C-H stretch is observed in the diacetylene (HC=CC=CH) complex, blue shifted by approximately from the infrared-active monomer C-H stretch at ; the bound CH stretch is red shifted about the same amount as in . These observations imply that the weak coupling of the local modes in diacetylene is significantly quenched upon complexation with . The predissociation linewidths are similar to those in , even though the outer C-H stretch is now five bonds away from the hydrogen bond. Surprisingly, these results suggest that the length of the triple-bond backbone in acetylene chains does not significantly impede the rate of vibrational energy flow. Future efforts will be made to extend these studies to the triacelyne complex,
Measurements of hc(P11) in ψ ′ Decays
We present measurements of the charmonium state hc(P11) made with 106×106 ψ ′ events collected by BESIII at BEPCII. Clear signals are observed for ψ ′→π0hc with and without the subsequent radiative decay hc→γηc. First measurements of the absolute branching ratios B(ψ ′→π0hc)=(8. 4±1.3±1.0)×10 -4 and B(hc→γηc)=(54. 3±6.7±5.2)% are presented. A statistics-limited determination of the previously unmeasured hc width leads to an upper limit Γ(hc)<1. 44MeV (90% confidence). Measurements of M(hc)=3525.40±0.13±0. 18MeV/c2 and B(ψ ′→π0hc) ×B(hc→γηc)=(4.58±0.40±0.50)×10 -4 are consistent with previous results. © 2010 The American Physical Society.published_or_final_versio

Heterologous expression of viral suppressors of RNA silencing complements virulence of the HC-Pro mutant of clover yellow vein virus in pea
Many plant viruses encode suppressors of RNA silencing, including the helper component-proteinase (HC-Pro) of potyviruses. Our previous studies showed that a D-to-Y mutation at amino acid position 193 in HC-Pro (HC-Pro-D193Y) drastically attenuated the virulence of clover yellow vein virus (ClYVV) in legume plants. Furthermore, RNA-silencing suppression (RSS) activity of HC-Pro-D193Y was significantly reduced in Nicotiana benthamiana. Here, we examine the effect of expression of heterologous suppressors of RNA silencing, i.e., tomato bushy stunt virus p19, cucumber mosaic virus 2b, and their mutants, on the virulence of the ClYVV point mutant with D193Y (Cl-D193Y) in pea. P19 and 2b fully and partially complemented Cl-D193Y multiplication and virulence, including lethal systemic HR in pea, respectively, but the P19 and 2b mutants with defects in their RSS activity did not. Our findings strongly suggest that the D193Y mutation exclusively affects RSS activity of HC-Pro and that RSS activity is necessary for ClYVV multiplication and virulence in pea
