Projectile fragmentation of Kr-86 at 64 MeV/nucleon

We measured fragmentation cross sections produced using the primary beam of Kr-86 at 64 MeV/nucleon on Be-9 and Ta-181 targets. The cross sections were obtained by integrating the momentum distributions of isotopes with 25 <= Z <= 36 measured using the RIPS fragment separator at RIKEN. The cross-section ratios obtained with the Ta-181 and Be-9 targets depend on the fragment masses, contrary to the simple geometrical models. We compared the extracted cross sections to EPAX; an empirical parametrization of fragmentation cross sections. Predictions from current EPAX parametrization severely overestimate the production cross sections of very neutron-rich isotopes. Attempts to obtain another set of EPAX parameters specific to the reaction studied here to extrapolate the neutron-rich nuclei more accurately have not been very successful, suggesting that accurate predictions of production cross sections of nuclei far from the valley of stability require information of nuclear properties that are not present in EPAX.

Probing the Structure of Unstable Nuclei Through the Recoiled Proton Tagged Knockout Reaction

Recoiled proton tagged knockout reaction experiments were carried-out for He-8 at 82.5 MeV/u in RIKEN and for He-6 at 65 MeV/u in Lanzhou. The very preliminary results for the distinguish of the reaction mechanism are presented and compared to the kinematics calculation.

Elastic Scattering of He-6 + p at 82.3 MeV/nucleon

Differential cross sections for the elastic scattering of halo nucleus He-6 on proton target were measured at 82.3 MeV/u. The experimental results are well reproduced by optical model calculations using global potential KD02 with a reduction of the depth of real volume part by a factor of 0.7. A systematic analysis shows that this behavior might be related to the weakly bound property of unstable nuclei.

MEASUREMENT OF TWO-PROTON CORRELATION FROM THE BREAK-UP OF Al-23

Experiments of Al-23 and Mg-22 radioactive beams bombarding a C-12 target at an energy of 60 similar to 70 A MeV have been performed at the projectile fragment separator beamline (RIPS) in the RIKEN Ring Cyclotron Facility to study the two-proton emission from Al-23 and Mg-22 excited states, respectively. The trajectorie of the decay products, namely Na-21 + p + p from Al-23 and Ne-20 + p + p from Mg-22, are clean identified. The relative momentum and opening angle between two protons in the rest frame of three body decay channels are obtained by relativistic-kinematics reconstruction. The results demonstrate that there are some di-proton emission components from He-2 cluster for the excited Al-23 and Mg-22.

MEASUREMENT OF THE PROTON-PROTON CORRELATION FUNCTION FROM THE BREAK-UP OF Mg-22 AND Ne-20

An experiment of Mg-22 and Ne-20 beams bombarding on a C-12 target at an energy of 60 similar to 70 A MeV has been performed at the RIKEN projectile fragment separator (RIPS)in the RIKEN Ring Cyclotron Facility to study the two-proton correlated emission from Mg-22 and Ne-20 excited states. The two-protons momentum correlation functions have been obtained for Mg-22 and Ne-20, respectively. The trajectories of the Mg-22 decayed products (Ne-20 + p + p) were also measured to get the angular correlations between the two protons in Center of Mass of decaying system by relativistic-kinematics reconstruction. The results exhibit that Mg-22 has the features of He-2 cluster decay mechanism.

Recent activities at the Tokyo EBIT 2006

The electron beam ion trap (EBIT) in Tokyo was constructed about 10 years after the first EBIT at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory was built, and has been being stably operated since then. In this paper, we present recent experimental activities at the Tokyo EBIT. In particular, experiments utilizing slow, very highly charged ion beams extracted from the EBIT are reported.

Injection of metallic elements into an electron-beam ion trap using a Knudsen cell

A method of injecting metallic elements into an electron-beam ion trap (EBIT) is described. The method is advantageous over the conventional coaxial and pulsed injection methods in two ways: (a) complicated switching of injection and extraction beams can be avoided when extracting beams of highly charged ions from the EBIT and (b) a beam of stable intensity can be achieved. This method may be applicable to any metallic elements or metallic compounds that have vapor pressures of similar to 0.1 Pa at a temperature lower than 1900 degrees C. We have employed this method for the extraction of highly charged ions of Bi, Er, Fe, and Ho. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.

Differential effects of reduced glycoprotein VI levels on activation of murine platelets by glycoprotein VI ligands

We have investigated the effects of decreased levels of the complex between glycoprotein VI (GPVI) and the Fc receptor gamma-chain (FcRgamma) on responses to collagen and GPVI-specific ligands in murine platelets. We show that levels of GPVI-FcRgamma of the order of 50 % and 20 % of wild-type levels caused 2- and 5-fold shifts to the right respectively in the dose-response curve for aggregation in response to collagen, the snake toxin convulxin and the monoclonal antibody JAQ1. In addition, there is a delay in the onset of aggregation in response to collagen. In contrast, the stimulation of protein tyrosine phosphorylation by collagen (as measured after 150 s) and adhesion to a collagen-coated surface under static conditions were unaffected in platelets with 50 % and 20 % of wild-type levels of GPVI. In contrast, responses to a collagen-related peptide (CRP), made up of repeat glycine-proline-hydroxyproline motifs, were markedly inhibited and abolished in platelets expressing 50 % and 20 % of wild-type levels of GPVI respectively. We suggest that the marked effect of a reduction in GPVI levels on the CRP-induced activation of platelets is due to the multivalent nature of CRP and the fact that GPVI is its sole receptor on platelets. Thus it appears that the interaction of CRP with GPVI is determined by a combination of affinity and avidity. The observation that collagen does not behave like CRP in platelets expressing reduced levels of GPVI, even in the combined presence of blocking antibodies against integrin alpha2beta1 and GPV, suggests that collagen has a greater affinity than CRP for GPVI, and/or that other receptors are involved in its binding to platelets. The clinical significance of these results is discussed.

Facile access to new C-glycosides and C-glycoside scaffolds incorporating functionalised aromatic moieties

The tandem ene/intramolecular Sakurai cyclisation (IMSC) reaction has been successfully applied to thesynthesis of a range of C-glycosides, with key intermediates offering opportunities for functionalisation ofthe glycon moiety. To demonstrate the versatility of the approach to access the 2-deoxy-C-glycoside series,we synthesised diastereomerically pure C-glucoside and galactoside derivatives incorporating functionalisedaromatic, heteroaromatic and bicyclic aromatic moieties, in addition to the C-homologue of(±)-b-2-deoxy-glucose 6-phosphate.

Synthèse de 4-désoxy hexopyrannoses, C-disaccharides et C-glycosides biologiquement actifs

Les glucides constituent la classe de molécules organiques la plus abondante et ceux-ci jouent des rôles cruciaux dans divers processus biologiques. De part leur importance médicinale, la préparation des désoxy-sucres, des C-glycosides et des C-disaccharides est devenue un sujet de pointe en synthèse organique. De façon générale, cette thèse décrit une nouvelle synthèse de novo des 4-désoxy hexopyrannoses en plus de la préparation de C-glycosides biologiquement actifs. De plus, une attention particulière a été portée à la préparation de novo de 4-désoxy-C-disaccharides. Dans un premier temps, le catalyseur de Cr(III) de Jacobsen et un complexe binaphtol/titane ont été utilisés pour réaliser des hétéro-Diels-Alder énantiosélectives. Les dihydropyrannes ainsi générés ont été transformés en 4-désoxy hexopyrannoses présents dans la nature. De cette façon, un dérivé de l’acide ézoaminuroïque, un précurseur de la désosamine et de la néosidomycine, a été préparé suivant cette approche de novo. De plus, à titre comparatif, la néosidomycine a également été fabriquée selon une approche chiron, à partir du méthyl alpha-D-mannopyrannoside. Finalement, une évaluation biologique préliminaire de la néosidomycine a été effectuée sur une la concanavaline-A (Chapitre 2). Dans un deuxième temps, une allylation stéréosélective sur un aldéhyde lié via des liens C-C à une unité mannoside a permis de générer un alcool homoallylique. Cette dernière fonctionnalité a été transformée en 4-désoxy hexopyrannose de configuration D ou L. De cette façon, la préparation de pseudo 4-désoxy-C-disaccharides, de 4-désoxy-C-disaccharides et de pseudo 4-désoxy aza-C-disaccharides a facilement été réalisée. Les rapports diastéréoisomériques de la réaction d’allylation ont été déterminés en plus de la configuration absolue des nouveaux centres stéréogéniques formés. La transformation des alcools homoallyliques en pyrannes poly hydroxylés ou en lactames poly hydroxylés a été réalisée, en plus de la déprotection de certains membres de cette famille pour une évaluation biologique préliminaire sur la concanavaline-A (Chapitre 3). Finalement, la synthèse de C-glycosides biologiquement actifs a été réalisée selon deux volets: i) préparation de 3-C-mannopyrannosyl coumarines et ii) synthèse de C-galactosides, inhibiteurs de la lectine PA-IL. Pour ce faire, le couplage de Heck a été utilisé à partir d’un ester alpha,bêta-insaturé, attaché à une unité glycosidique via des liens C-C, pour générer un dérivé glycosyl cinnamate de méthyle. Cependant, lorsque le 2-iodophénol est utilisé comme partenaire de Heck, la coumarine correspondante a été isolée. Les dérivés C-galactopyrannosyl cinnamates de méthyle représentent de bons inhibiteurs monovalents de la PA-IL avec un Kd aussi bas que 37 micro M (Chapitre 4).
