Observation of a pi h(9/2) circle times nu i(13/2) oblate band in Tl-188

Excited states in Tl-188 have been studied experimentally using the Gd-157(Cl-35;4n) reaction at a beam energy of 170 MeV. A rotational band built on the pi h(9/2) x nu i(13/2) configuration with oblate deformation has been established for Tl-188. Based on the structure systematics of the oblate pi h(9/2) x nu i(13/2) bands in the heavier odd-odd Tl nuclei, we have tentatively proposed spin values for the new band in Tl-188. The pi h(9/2) x nu i(13/2) oblate band in Tl-188 shows low-spin signature inversion, and it can be interpreted qualitatively by the two-quasiparticle plus rotor model including a J-dependent p-n residual interaction.

Properties of the pi h(9/2)circle times nu i(13/2) oblate band in Tl-188

High spin states in Tl-188 have been investigated via the Gd-157(Cl-35,4n) reaction at beam energy of 170 MeV. A rotational band built on the pi h(9/2) circle times nu(13/2) configuration with oblate deformation has been established. Considering the similarity between the band structure observed in odd-odd Tl nuclei, spin values have been tentatively proposed for the new band in Tl-188. The pi h(9/2) circle times nu(13/2) oblate band in Tl-188 shows low-spin signature inversion, and it can be interpreted qualitatively by the two quasiparticle plus rotor model including a J-dependent p-n residual interaction.

High-spin states in Au-188: Further evidence for nonaxial shape

The high-spin level structure of Au-188 has been investigated via the Yb-173(F-19,4n gamma) reaction at beam energies of 86 and 90 MeV. The previously reported level scheme has been modified and extended significantly. A new I-pi = 20(+) state associated with pi h(11/2)(-1) circle times nu i(13/2)(-2)h(9/2)(-1) configuration and two new rotational bands, one of which is built on the pi h(9/2) circle times nu i(13/2) configuration, have been identified. The prolate-to-oblate shape transition through triaxial shape has been proposed to occur around Au-188 for the pi h(9/2) circle times nu i(13/2) bands in odd-odd Au isotopes. Evidence for pi h(11/2)(-1) circle times nu i(13/2)(-1) structure of nonaxial shape with gamma < -70 degrees has been obtained by comparison with total Routhian surface and cranked-shell-model calculations.

High-spin states of odd-odd nuclei in the A similar to 170 mass region

Efforts have been made in our group to study the band structure of odd-odd nuclei in the A similar to 170 mass region. We aimed at providing new data of high-spin states and searching for the low-spin signature inversion in the 2-qp bands built on the pi h(9/2) circle times nu i(13/2) and pi i(13/2)circle times nu i(13/2) configurations. In this talk, main results of our work will be summarized, and some systematic features of signature inversion discussed. The spin and parity assignments for the pi i(13/2) circle times nu i(13/2) band in (184)An could be regarded as firm providing a good example for systematic and theoretical investigations.

High-spin states and collective band structures in the odd-odd Pm-140 nucleus

The high-spin states of Pm-140 have been investigated through the reaction Te-126(F-19, 5n) at a beam energy of 90 MeV. A previous level scheme based on the 8(-) isomer has been updated with spin up to 23 (h) over bar. A total of 22 new levels and 41 new transitions were identified. Six collective bands were observed. Five of them were expanded or re-constructed, and one of them was newly identified. The systematic signature splitting and inversion of the yrast pi h(11/2)circle times vh(11/2) band in Pr and Pm odd-odd isotopes has been discussed. Based on the systematic comparison, two Delta I = 2 bands were proposed as double-decoupled bands; other two bands with strong Delta I = 1 M1 transitions inside the bands were suggested as oblate bands with gamma similar to -60 degrees; another band with large signature splitting has been proposed with oblate-triaxial deformation with gamma similar to -90 degrees. The characteristics for these bands have been discussed.

奇奇核158Ho和124Cs高自旋态的实验研究

奇奇核作为研究准质子和准中子间相互作用的独特侯选核，近年来，人们给予了越来越多的关注。奇奇核高j组态带中观测到的低自旋旋称反转现象(Signature inversion)已成为原子核高自旋态领域中一个十分活跃的研究课题。近十年来，一系列基于二准粒子加转子模型框架的计算结果表明，奇奇核中这两个准粒子之间的相互作用与旋称反转现象的发生密切相关。相对于偶偶核和奇A核，奇奇核的能级结构更复杂一些，实验上对其高自旋态的研究比较困难，这主要体现在实验上所提供的许多奇奇核的能级纲图存在着一定程度的不确定性，例如能级的激发能位置、转动带的组态、自旋和宇称的指定，甚至在纲图结构、级联系列的核素归属等方面都有一些问题。其中，转动带能级自旋的指定直接关系到准粒子能量的劈裂属性(即正常劈裂还是反常劈裂、旋称反转发生在低自旋区还是高自旋区及旋称反转的发生位置等)：自旋的奇偶性定错了，会导致本来是反转的旋称劈裂变成不反转的(反之亦然)；自旋值定错了△I，会导致旋称反转的位置发生相应的漂移。由于实验上奇奇核转动带能级自旋指定的混乱局面，掩盖了旋称反转现象的客观规律，使得相关理论模型的计算结果得不到及时检验。基于激发能系统学分析方法、以顺排角动量相加性为判据，我们曾对A～160轻稀土区的πhl_(11/2)direct X vi_(13/2)转动带(17个核素)和A～130过渡区的πh_(11/2)direct XVh_(ll/2)转动带(20个核素)进行了系统研究，对其中20个核的自旋数据提出质疑、并提出了相应的修正方案，在此基础上总结了两核区旋称反转现象的系统规律。利用激发能系统学方法指定奇奇核转动带的能级自旋，主要遵循以下三点原则：①自旋奇偶性：根据推转壳模型的描述，当准粒子处于优惠态(Favored)时、较非优惠态(Unfavored)具有更大的顺排角动量。这样，通过对转动带中两signature分支系列的i_x大小的比较，可以辅助推断能级自旋的奇偶性；②顺排角动量相加性：在忽略p-n剩余相互作用条件下，奇奇核中总的顺排角动量近似等于相邻奇A核中相应组态带提取的准粒子顺排角动量之和。这样，利用i_x对自旋值比较敏感的特点，可以推断出能级自旋取值的大致范围；③激发能系统性分析：由于集体转动反映大量核子的集体行为，少数核子的改变不会对这种运动产生明显影响，利用转动惯量的组态相关特性，在一组同位素或同中子素系列链中，对应一定内禀结构的转动带，随着质子数或中子数的均匀递增，能级能量应表现光滑的变化趋势(即不发生突变)。这三个方面基于不同角度、相对独立地指定转动带自旋。其结论的统一、往往可以给出正确的自旋数据。然而，必须指出的是：系统学分析过程是一种经验方法，并不具有严格的理论基础，上述的自旋修正以及总结出的旋称反转规律，必须得到实验核谱学测量的支持。基于这一思想，针对两核区，我们分别选择情况较为阿典型的奇奇核~(158)Ho和~(124)Cs进行了集中的实验测量。本论文的主要研究目标就是要建立两核中晕带与低激发态或基态的联系，找出原纲图中错误自旋指定的原因所在，验证系统学结论的有效性，并用旋称反转的实验规律性对理论模型的系统计算结果进行检验。(一)奇奇核~(158)58Ho高自旋态的实验研究在原子能研究院的HI-13串列加速器上，通过~(152)Sm(~(11)B，5nγ)~(158)Ho融合蒸发反应(束流轰击能E_(lab)=60 MeV)、对目标核~(158)Ho的高自旋态进行布居。探测阵列由八个高纯锗探测器构成，为了提高低能射线的收集效率，使用了一个平面型高纯锗探测器。分别进行了激发函数曲线测量、γ-γ-t符合测量和剩余放射性测量。数据反演后，两重符合总记数～120x10~6。实验结果概括如下：1．建立了基态带，组态指定为：{πh_(11/2)[523]7／2-direct Xvh_(9/2)[521]3／2~-}K~π=5~+；2．建立了一个强度仅次于晕带的强耦合带结构(亚晕带：yrare band)。通过转动参数、跃迁几率、顺排角动量、带交叉频率等特征参量的分析，其组态指定为：{πg_(7／2)[404】7／2]~+ direct X vi_(3／2)[651]3／2~+}K~π=5~+。 尽管该带带头附近的结构还不完整，但观测到了带内几条能级退激、分别贯入到晕带和基态带，从而将晕带和亚晕带同基态联系起来，固定了晕带和亚晕带中能级的激发能位置，并通过对这些连接跃迁多极性的分析，指定了两个带中的能级自旋和宇称；3.晕带(πh_(11/2)direct X vi~(13/2))向高自旋端拓展了7条能级，最高自旋态达到26h，激发 能4．9MeV。肯定了原纲图中不确定的617kev跃迁的存在和放置，观测到了反转点(I_(inv.)≈16h)，肯定了系统学研究对该核的自旋修正。基于本实验建立的连接关系，晕带中观测到的最低态(即70.8kev跃迁贯入能级)激发能为207．6kev，而对应该能级，原纲图中激发能为156．9kev。这意味着原能级纲图中，晕带向基态退激途径中漏掉了一个～5lkeV的"能隙"(Energy gap)，自旋差|△I|=3。根据晕带与退激5-同质异能态的跃迁(156．9kev)的快符合关系，该"能隙"至少由两个跃迁构成。该结果否定了原纲图中对晕带带头处理的三种可能性(①70．8kev为连接跃迁，其退激的能级为带头；②70．8kev为带内跃迁，156．9kev、5-同质异能态为带头：⑨70．8kev为带内跃迁，156．9kev、5-同质异能态为带头，但带头附近仍存在尚未观测的跃迁)。不确切的连接关系是过去实验中无法正确指定晕带自旋的原因；4．建立了一个强耦合的转动带结构，其能级间距(跃迁E_γ)随角动量的增加均匀递增，组态指定为{πh_(11/2)[523]7／2~-direct Xvh_(11/2)[505]11／2~-}K~π=9~+；同时，观测到了另一高K激发态退激到该转动带。其内禀结构指定为：{πg_(7／2)[404]7／2~+direct Xvh_(11/2)[505]1 l／2~-}K~π=9~-；5．建立了基于156．9 kev(I~π=5~-、T_(1/2)=29 ns)同质异能态上的转动带，该带观测完整，具有较强耦合的结构特点。其内禀准粒子轨道指定为：{πh_(11/2)[523]_(7／2)~-direct X vd_(3／2)[402]3／2~+}K~π=5~-，与处于较低激发能(67．3 kev)的2~-态(T_(1／2)=27 min．)构成了一对GM伙伴态。否定了过去的实验中把该态指定为{πg_(7/2)~2+direct Xvh_(9/2)[521]3／2~-}K~π=2~-组态；6．观测到了一个基于65．5 kev激发态的转动带，通过理论模型预言的带头激发能及转动参数与实验值的比较、考虑到其较弱的布居强度和很低的顺排角动量、以及较强耦合的结构特点， 其组态指定为： {πd~(5／2)[402]5／2~direct X vh_(9／2)[521]3／2~-}K~π=4~-。这一结果肯定了过去放射性测量中对处于较高激发能(139．2 kev)、T_(1／2)=1．85 ns、I~π=1~-激发态的讨论，即二者构成了一对GM伙伴态；7．建立了基于{πh_(11／2)[523]7／2~-direct X v_(7／2)[523]5／2~-}K~π=6~+激发态的强耦合转动带结构，其带头激发能为450．1 kev，与I~π=1~+、激发能为146．9 kev的同质异能态构成了一对GM伙伴态；8．在过去的放射性衰变测量中，提供了三个2~+激发态(激发能分别为117．7 kev、74．95 kev和316 kev)。其中两个2~+态(117．7和74．95 kev)同时指定具有{πh_(11／2)[523↑]7／2~-direct X vh_(9／2)[521↓]3／2~-}K~π=2~+组态。这里，我们指定1 17．7 kev的2~+激发态为{πg_(7／2)[404↓]7／2~+ direct X vi_(l3／2)[651↓]3／2~+}K~π=2+组态，即与本实验建立的亚晕带内禀激发态构成了一对GM伙伴态，而74．95 kev的2~+激发态指定为 {πh_(11/2)[523↑]7／2~-direct X vh_(9/2)[521↓]3／2~-}K~π=2~+组态，即与基态构成了一对GM伙伴态。基于本实验中K~π=9~+激发态的观测及其转动带的建立，我们指定激发能为3 1 6 kev的2~+激发态具有{πh_(11/2)[523↓]7／2~-direct X vh_(11/2)[505个]1 1／2~-}K~π=2~+组态，即这两个态构成了一对GM伙伴态；9．通过本实验、提供了~(158)Ho中各能态的跃迁强度和跃迁几率等数据。概括起来，奇奇核~(158)Ho的能级纲图大大完善了。综合本实验观测到的高自旋转动带结构和放射性测量中的部分激发态信息，我们可以整理出10对GM伙伴态，并提供了四个分别对应自旋平行和反平行耦合的GM能量漂移(GM Shift)，即：{πh_(ll／2)[523]7／2~-direct Xvh_(9／2)[521]3／2~-}K~π=5~+、2~+，EGM=101．4 kev；{πh_(11/2)[523] 7／2~-direct X vd_(3／2)[402]3／2~+}K~π=5~-、2~-，E_(GM)=64．1 kev；{πd_(5/2)[402]5／2~+direct X vh_(9／2)[521]3／2~-}K~π =4~-、1~-，E_(GM)=113．3 kev；{πh_(11/2)[523]7／2~-direct Xvf_(7/2)[523]5／2~-}K~π=6~+、1~+，EGM=255．7 keV。(二)奇奇核~(124)Cs高自旋态的实验研究在原子能院的HI-13串列加速器上，利用~（116）Sn（~（11)B，3nγ)~(124)Cs融合蒸发反应(束流轰击能E_(lab.)=45 MeV)，对奇奇核~(124)Cs的高自旋态进行了布居。探测阵列由10个高纯锗探测器和一个小平面探测器组成。数据反演后，总的两重符合事件数达到160x10~6。实验结果概括如下：1．高自旋转动带的信息更丰富了：建立了三个新的转动带结构，其中两个耦合带、一个退耦带，组态分别为：{πh_(11／2)[550]1／2~- direct X vhd_(5/2)[413]5／2~+}K~π=3~-、{πg_(7／2)[413]5／2~+direct X vg_(7/2)[402】5／2~+}K~π=5~+以及{πh_(11/2)[550]1／2~- direct X vd_(3/2)[400]l／2~+}K~π=1~-；2．低激发态的信息更丰富了：观测到了20多条新的低激发态跃迁，增加了10多个新的低激发态；3．转动带之间以及转动带与低激发态间耦合的信息大大丰富了：在过去的研究中观测到了三个彼此孤立、悬空的转动带结构，这里指定它们的组态为：{πh_(11／2) [550]1／2~-direct X vh_(11/2)[523]7／2~-}K~π=4~+(晕 带) ； {πh_(11/2)[550]1／2~- (direct X)vg_(7/2)[402]5/2~+}K~π=3~-(亚晕带：布居强度仅次于晕带)；{πh_(11/2)[550]1/2~-(direct X)vs_(1/2)[411]1／2~+}K~π=1~-(双退耦结构)。其中，亚晕带(yrare band)通过至少三个独立的退激路径与低激发态联系起来；同时，建立了晕带与亚晕带间的多条连接关系。其它转动带分别与晕带和亚晕带联系起来，从而，在奇奇核~(124)Cs中，转动带的"悬空"不再存在，限定了各转动带中能级的激发能位援，并通过这些连接跃迁多极性的分析，分别指定了各能态的自旋和宇称。4．基于本实验建立的连接关系，晕带的最低态(124kev射线贯入能级)的激发能为618．9kev，该能量值比过去研究中的同一能级高出11．7kev。这表明原能级纲图中晕带的退激途径漏掉了一个11．7kev的"能隙"(根据Weisskopf估计，该能隙很可能由两个偶极跃迁构成)。该"能隙"的漏观测，正是导致过去实验中无法正确指定晕带自旋的原因所在；

Preparation and performance of cellulose acetate/polyethyleneimine blend microfiltration membranes and their applications

A modified microfiltration membrane has been prepared by blending a matrix polymer with a functional polymer. Cellulose acetate (CA) was blended with polyethyleneimine (PEI), which was then crosslinked by polyisocyanate, in a mixture of solvents. In the membrane, PEI can supply coupling sites for ligands in affinity separation or be used as ligands for metal chelating, removal of endotoxin or ion exchange. The effects of the time of phase inversion induced by water vapor, blended amount of PEI and amount of crosslinking agent on membrane performance were investigated. The prepared blend membranes have specific surface area of 12.04-24.11 m(2)/g and pure water flux (PWF) of 10-50 ml/cm(2) min with porosity of 63-75%. The membranes, made of 0.15 50 wt.% PEI/CA ratio and 0.5 crosslinking agent/PEI ratio, were applied to adsorbing Cu2+ and bovine serum albumin (BSA) individually. The maximum adsorption capacity of Cu2+ ion on the blend membrane is 7.42 mg/g dry membrane. The maximum adsorption capacities of BSA on the membranes with and without chelating Cu2+ ion are 86.6 and 43.8 mg/g dry membrane, respectively. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Stratigraphic Model Predictions of Geoacoustic Properties

Geoacoustic properties of the seabed have a controlling role in the propagation and reverberation of sound in shallow-water environments. Several techniques are available to quantify the important properties but are usually unable to adequately sample the region of interest. In this paper, we explore the potential for obtaining geotechnical properties from a process-based stratigraphic model. Grain-size predictions from the stratigraphic model are combined with two acoustic models to estimate sound speed with distance across the New Jersey continental shelf and with depth below the seabed. Model predictions are compared to two independent sets of data: 1) Surficial sound speeds obtained through direct measurement using in situ compressional wave probes, and 2) sound speed as a function of depth obtained through inversion of seabed reflection measurements. In water depths less than 100 m, the model predictions produce a trend of decreasing grain-size and sound speed with increasing water depth as similarly observed in the measured surficial data. In water depths between 100 and 130 m, the model predictions exhibit an increase in sound speed that was not observed in the measured surficial data. A closer comparison indicates that the grain-sizes predicted for the surficial sediments are generally too small producing sound speeds that are too slow. The predicted sound speeds also tend to be too slow for sediments 0.5-20 m below the seabed in water depths greater than 100 m. However, in water depths less than 100 m, the sound speeds between 0.5-20-m subbottom depth are generally too fast. There are several reasons for the discrepancies including the stratigraphic model was limited to two dimensions, the model was unable to simulate biologic processes responsible for the high sound-speed shell material common in the model area, and incomplete geological records necessary to accurately predict grain-size

The research of rheology and thermodynamics of organic-inorganic hybrid membrane during the membrane formation

To clarify the mechanism of organic-inorganic hybrid membrane formation by phase-inversion method, the thermodynamical and theological properties of PSF/TiO2 casting solution were investigated by the viscosity measurement and the triangle phase diagram, respectively. TiO2 introduction decreased the non-solvent tolerance of casting solution with non-solvent 20% ethanol aqueous solution, which caused thermodynamic enhancement of phase separation, and also resulted in the change of theological properties from Newtonian fluid to non-Newtonian fluid and the viscosity increase of casting solution, which induced rheological hindrance in demixing process

The title mixed-metal complex, {(NH4)(2)[Cu(C7H3NO4)(2)(H2O)(2)][CdCu(C7H3NO4)(2)(H2O)(6)]center dot 6H(2)O}(n), contains one octahedrally coordinated Cd-II center and two octahedrally coordinated Cu-II centers, each lying on an inversion center. The two Cu-II atoms are each coordinated by two O atoms and two N atoms from two 2,4-pydc (2,4-H(2)pydc = pyridine-2,4-dicarboxylic acid) ligands in the equatorial plane and two water molecules at the axial sites, thus producing two crystallographically independent [Cu(2,4-pydc)(2)(H2O)(2)](2-) metalloligands. One metalloligand exists as a discrete anion and the other connects the Cd(H2O)(4) units, forming a neutral chain.

A polymorph of diaquabis(pyrazine-2-carboxylato-kappa N-2(1),O)copper(II)

The title compound, [Cu(C5H3N2O2)(2)(H2O)(2)], is a new polymorph of the previously reported compound [Klein et al. (1982). Inorg. Chem. 21, 1891-1897]. The Cu-II atom, lying on an inversion center, is coordinated by two N atoms and two O atoms from two pyrazine-2-carboxylate ligands and by two water molecules in a distorted octahedral geometry with the water molecules occupying the axial sites. Intermolecular O-H center dot center dot center dot O, O-H center dot center dot center dot N and C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds connect the complex molecules into a two-dimensional layer parallel to (10 (1) over bar), whereas the previously reported polymorph exhibits a three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded network.

Hydrothermal Synthesis and Luminescence of Eu-Doped Ba0.92Y2.15F8.29 Submicrospheres

The nonstoichimetric Ba0.92Y2.15F8.29 submicrospheres that piled up by nanoparticles have been prepared via a solution-based method in a hydrothermal environment. The size distribution of the submicrospheres could be tuned by varying the amount of BaCl2. The fluoride source NaBF4 plays an important role in the formation of the submicrospheres. The chelator ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid regulates the growth of the primary nanoparticles as well as the aggregated submicrospheres. The photoluminescence properties of different concentrations of Eu3+-doped Ba0.92Y2.15F8.29 were investigated and the results revealed that the 8% concentration of Eu3+ ions is the optimum doping concentration and the Y3+ ions occupy the site of inversion symmetry.

Deposition of GdVO4 : Eu3+ nanoparticles on silica nanospheres by a simple sol-gel method

The deposition and coating of GdVO4: Eu3+ nanoparticles on spherical silica was carried out using a simple sol - gel method at low temperature. The GdVO4: Eu3+-coated silica composites obtained were characterized by differential thermal analysis (DTA), thermogravimetric (TG) analysis, x-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform IR spectroscopy (FT-IR), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), photoluminescence spectra, and kinetic decay. It is found that the similar to 5 nm GdVO4: Eu3+ nanoparticles coating the silica spheres are crystal in the as-prepared samples and the crystallinity increases with increasing annealing temperature. The composites obtained are spherical in shape with an average size of 100 nm. The GdVO4: Eu3+ nanoparticles are linked with silica cores by a chemical bond. The photoluminescence spectra of the obtained GdVO4: Eu3+-coated silica composites are similar to those of the bulk GdVO4: Eu3+ phosphors. The strongest peak is near 617 nm, which indicates that Eu3+ is located in the low symmetry site with non-inversion centre.

Charge ordering induced metal-semiconductor transition in Ag2BiO3: A first-principles study

Accurate ab initio density-functional calculations are performed to investigate the relationship of the ground-state crystal structures and electronic properties of Ag2BiO3 compound. The results indicate that Ag2BiO3 in Pnna phase, in which the bismuth atoms occupy the same Wyckoff positions, exhibits metallic conductivity, while in Pnn2 and Pn phases, Ag2BiO3 exhibits semiconducting character, which is in agreement with the experimental results. Charge ordering is indeed induced by the crystal inversion twin in the Pnn2 phase compared with the Pnna phase. In the low temperature phase Pn, the charge ordering is similar to that of Pnn2 phase although it is more distorted in Pn phase. In addition, the calculation indicates that the charge ordering is caused in the 6s electron rearrangement.

In situ circular dichroic electrochemical study of bilirubin and bovine serum albumin complex

The electrooxidation of bilirubin (BR) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) complexes was studied by in situ circular dichroism (CD) spectroelectrochemistry. The result showed that the mechanism of the whole electrooxidation process of this complex corresponded to electrochemical processes (EE mechanism) in aqueous solution. Some parameters of the process were obtained by double logarithm method, differential method and nonlinear regression method. In visible region, CD spectra of the two enantiomeric components of the complex and their fraction distribution against applied potentials were obtained by singular value decomposition least-square (SVDLS) method. Meanwhile, the distribution of the five components of secondary structure was also obtained by the same method in far-UV region. The peak potential gotten from EE mechanism corresponds to a turning point for the component transition, beyond which the whole reaction reaches a new equilibrium. Under applied positive potentials, the enantiomeric equilibrium between M and P form is broken and M form transfers to its enantiomer of P, while the fraction of alpha-helix increases and that improves the transition to P form.
