Measurement of the ratio of prompt χ c to J / ψ production in pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV
The prompt production of charmonium χ c and J / ψ states is studied in proton-proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of √s = 7 TeV at the Large Hadron Collider. The χ c and J / ψ mesons are identified through their decays χ c → J / ψ γ and J / ψ → μ + μ - using 36 pb - 1 of data collected by the LHCb detector in 2010. The ratio of the prompt production cross-sections for χ c and J / ψ, σ (χ c → J / ψ γ) / σ (J / ψ), is determined as a function of the J / ψ transverse momentum in the range 2 < p T J / ψ < 15 GeV / c. The results are in excellent agreement with next-to-leading order non-relativistic expectations and show a significant discrepancy compared with the colour singlet model prediction at leading order, especially in the low p T J / ψ region
The AM Canum Venaticorum binary SDSS J173047.59+554518.5
The AM Canum Venaticorum (AM CVn) binaries are a rare group of hydrogen-deficient, ultrashort period, mass-transferring white dwarf binaries and are possible progenitors of Type Ia supernovae. We present time-resolved spectroscopy of the recently discovered AM CVn binary SDSS J173047.59+554518.5. The average spectrum shows strong double-peaked helium emission lines, as well as a variety of metal lines, including neon; this is the second detection of neon in an AM CVn binary, after the much brighter system GP Com. We detect no calcium in the accretion disc, a puzzling feature that has been noted in many of the longer period AM CVn binaries. We measure an orbital period, from the radial velocities of the emission lines, of 35.2 ± 0.2 min, confirming the ultracompact binary nature of the system. The emission lines seen in SDSS J1730 are very narrow, although double-peaked, implying a low-inclination, face-on accretion disc; using the measured velocities of the line peaks, we estimate i ≤ 11°. This low inclination makes SDSS J1730 an excellent system for the identification of emission lines
Catalytic P-H activation by Ti and Zr catalysts
Catalytic dehydrocoupling of phosphines was investigated using the anionic zirconocene trihydride salts [Cp*Zr-2(mu-H)(3)Li](3) (1a) or [Cp*Zr-2(mu-H)(3)K(thf)(4)] (1b), and the metallocycles [CpTi(NPtBu3)(CH2)(4)] (6) and [Cp*M(NPtBu3)(CH2)(4)] (M = Ti 20, Zr 21) as catalyst precursors. Dehydrocoupling of primary phosphines RPH2 (R = Ph, C6H2Me3, Cy, C10H7) gave both dehydrocoupled dimers RP(H)P(H)R or cyclic oligophosphines (RP)(n) (n = 4, 5) while reaction of tBu(3)C(6)H(2)PH(2) gave the phosphaindoline tBu(2)(Me2CCH2)C6H2PH (9). Stoichiometric reactions of these catalyst precursors with primary phosphines afforded [Cp*Zr-2((PR)(2))H][K(thf)(4)] (R = Ph 2, Cy 3, C6H2Me3 4), [Cp*Zr-2((PPh)(3))H] [K(thf)(4)] (5), [CpTi(NPtBu3)(PPh)(3)] (7) and [CpTi(NPtBu3)(mu-PHPh)](2) (8), while reaction of 6 with (C(6)H(2)tBu3)PH2 in the presence of PMe3 afforded [CpTi(NPtBu3)(PMe3)(p(C(6)H(2)tBu(3))] (10). The secondary phosphines Ph2PH and (PhHPCH2)(2)CH2 also undergo dehydrocoupling affording (Ph2P)(2) and (PhPCH2)(2)CH2. The bisphosphines (CH2PH2)(2) and C6H4(PH2)(2) are dehydrocoupled to give (PCH2CH2PH)(2) (12) and (C6H4P(PH))(2) (13) while prolonged reaction of 13 gave (C6H4P2)(8) (14). The analogous bisphosphine Me2C6H4(PH)(2) (17) was prepared and dehydrocoupling catalysis afforded (Me2C6H2P(PH))(2) (18) and subsequently [(Me2C6H2P2)(2)(mu-Me2C6H2P2)](2) (19). Stoichiometric reactions with these bisphosphines gave [Cp*Zr-2(H)(PH)(2)C6H4] [Li(thf)(4)] (22), [Cp*Ti(NPtBu3)(PH)(2)C6H4](2) (23) and [Cp*Ti(NPtBu3)(PH)(2)C6H4] (24). Mechanistic implications are discussed.PT: J; CR: ALBRAND JP, 1976, J CHEM SOC CHEM COMM, P876 ANSELME JP, 1969, TETRAHEDRON, V25, P855 BASULI F, 2003, J AM CHEM SOC, V125, P10170 BAUDLER M, 1976, Z NATURFORSCH B, V31, P558 BAUDLER M, 1978, CHEM BER, V111, P1210 BAUDLER M, 1978, CHEM BER, V111, P1217 BAUDLER M, 1983, CHEM BER, V116, P2711 BAUDLER M, 1984, Z NATURFORSCH B, V39, P438 BAZAN GC, 1991, J AM CHEM SOC, V113, P6899 BOHM VPW, 2001, ANGEW CHEM, V113, P4832 CHAUVIN Y, 1971, MAKROMOL CHEM, V141, P161 COREY JY, 2004, ADV ORGANOMET CHEM, V51, P1 COURET C, 1986, ORGANOMETALLICS, V5, P113 COWLEY AH, 1984, TETRAHEDRON LETT, V25, P2125 COWLEY AH, 1990, INORG SYNTH, V27, P235 CROMER DT, 1974, INT TABLES CRYSTALLO, V4, P71 ETKIN N, 1997, J AM CHEM SOC, V119, P11420 ETKIN N, 1997, J AM CHEM SOC, V119, P2954 ETKIN N, 1997, ORGANOMETALLICS, V16, P3504 FEHLNER TP, 1992, INORGANOMETALLLICS FERMIN MC, 1995, J AM CHEM SOC, V117, P12645 FERMIN MC, 1995, ORGANOMETALLICS, V14, P4247 FU GC, 1993, J AM CHEM SOC, V115, P9856 GAUVIN F, 1998, ADV ORGANOMET CHEM, V42, P363 GRAHAM TW, 2004, ORGANOMETALLICS, V23, P3309 GRUBBS RH, 1972, J AM CHEM SOC, V94, P2538 GRUBBS RH, 2003, HDB METATHESIS HEY E, 1988, CHEM BER, V121, P561 HEY E, 1989, J ORGANOMET CHEM, V378, P375 HO JW, 1991, ORGANOMETALLICS, V10, P3001 HO JW, 1994, INORG CHEM, V33, P865 HOFFMAN PR, 1975, INORG CHEM, V14, P1997 HOSKIN AJ, 2001, ANGEW CHEM, V113, P1917 HOU ZM, 1993, ORGANOMETALLICS, V12, P3158 INAGAKI Y, 1980, B CHEM SOC JPN, V53, P205 ISSLEIB K, 1972, ANGEW CHEM, V84, P582 ISSLEIB K, 1987, J ORGANOMET CHEM, V330, P17 JACOBSEN EN, 1988, J AM CHEM SOC, V110, P1968 KATSUKI T, 1980, J AM CHEM SOC, V102, P5974 KAUFFMANN T, 1984, TETRAHEDRON LETT, V25, P1963 KAUFFMANN T, 1985, CHEM BER, V118, P1022 KITAMURA M, 1988, J AM CHEM SOC, V110, P629 KNOWLES WS, 1983, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V16, P106 KOEPF H, 1981, CHEM BER, V114, P2731 KOHLER EP, 1935, J AM CHEM SOC, V57, P367 KYBA EP, 1983, ORGANOMETALLICS, V2, P1877 MILLER AR, 1976, J AM CHEM SOC, V98, P1860 MILLER SJ, 1996, J AM CHEM SOC, V118, P9606 MIYASHITA A, 1980, J AM CHEM SOC, V102, P7932 MURDZEK JS, 1987, ORGANOMETALLICS, V6, P1373 NGUYEN ST, 1992, J AM CHEM SOC, V114, P3974 NGUYEN ST, 1993, J AM CHEM SOC, V115, P9858 NOVAK BM, 1988, J AM CHEM SOC, V110, P960 OHKUMA T, 1995, J AM CHEM SOC, V117, P2675 OHTA T, 1988, INORG CHEM, V27, P566 OSHIKAWA T, 1985, CHEM IND-LONDON, P126 ROCKLAGE SM, 1981, J AM CHEM SOC, V103, P1440 SCHOLL M, 1999, TETRAHEDRON LETT, V40, P2247 SCHROCK RR, 1974, J AM CHEM SOC, V96, P6796 SCHROCK RR, 1980, J MOL CATAL, V8, P73 SCHROCK RR, 1988, J MOL CATAL, V46, P243 SCHROCK RR, 1990, J AM CHEM SOC, V112, P3875 SCHWAB P, 1995, ANGEW CHEM INT EDIT, V34, P2039 SCHWAB P, 1995, ANGEW CHEM, V107, P2179 SCHWAB P, 1996, J AM CHEM SOC, V118, P100 SENDERIKHIN AI, 1988, ZH OBSHCH KHIM+, V58, P1662 SENDERIKHIN AI, 1989, ZH OBSHCH KHIM+, V59, P2141 SEYFERTH D, 1969, J ORG CHEM, V34, P1483 SHELDRICK GM, 2000, SHELXTL SHU RH, 1998, J AM CHEM SOC, V120, P12988 SMIT CN, 1983, TETRAHEDRON LETT, V24, P2031 SOUFFLET JP, 1973, CR ACAD SCI C CHIM, V276, P169 STEPHAN DW, 2000, ANGEW CHEM, V112, P322 STEPHAN DW, 2005, ORGANOMETALLICS, V24, P2548 STRADIOTTO M, 2001, HELV CHIM ACTA, V84, P2958 TILLEY TD, 1990, COMMENTS INORG CHEM, V10, P37 TILLEY TD, 1993, ACCOUNTS CHEM RES, V26, P22 TVERDOMED SN, 2003, RUSS J GEN CHEM+, V73, P319 VANDENWINKEL Y, 1991, J ORGANOMET CHEM, V405, P183 WATERMAN R, 2006, ANGEW CHEM INT EDIT, V45, P2926 WATERMAN R, 2006, ANGEW CHEM, V118, P2992 WEAST RC, 1974, HDB CHEM PHYS, P2436 WOOD CD, 1979, J AM CHEM SOC, V101, P3210 WU Z, 1995, J AM CHEM SOC, V117, P5503 XIN SX, 1997, J AM CHEM SOC, V119, P5307; NR: 85; TC: 0; J9: CHEM-EUR J; PG: 12; GA: 113PJSource type: Electronic(1

A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1
Spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

Production of J/ψ and Υ mesons in pp collisions at s√=8 TeV
The production of J/ψ and Υ mesons in pp collisions at s√=8 TeV is studied with the LHCb detector. The J/ψ and Υ mesons are reconstructed in the μ + μ − decay mode and the signal yields are determined with a fit to the μ + μ − invariant mass distributions. The analysis is performed in the rapidity range 2. 0 < y < 4. 5 and transverse momentum range 0 < p T < 14 (15) GeV/c of the J/ψ (Υ) mesons. The J/ψ and Υ production cross-sections and the fraction of J/ψ mesons from b-hadron decays are measured as a function of the meson p T and y
