133Cs relaxation times in rat tissues

133Cs relaxation-time studies of tissues from rats into which cesium has been incorporated by dietary loading have been carried out in vivo and in vitro. Whereas tissue T1 values are on the order of seconds, T2 values are as low as a few tens of milliseconds, 133Cs tissue relaxation times are analogous to those of 39K in the same tissues, but are more readily measured because of the greater sensitivity of 133Cs compared with 39K, T1 and T2 data of excised tissue at two resonance frequencies (65.60 and 39.37 MHz) and temperatures (302 and 278 K) have been analyzed in terms of a general description of spin- relaxation. The results are consistent with most of the cesium ions being in a free state, undergoing fast exchange with bound ions having long correlation times located in one or more intracellular compartments,

47 MeV/u ~(12)C与~(133)Cs反应中碘同位素产生截面的Q_(gg)依赖关系

用47 MeV/u 12C离子轰击133Cs靶,应用放射化学分离技术和离线γ射线谱学,得到碘同位素的产生截面。丰中子碘同位素的独立产生截面指数地依赖于Qgg值,而缺中子碘同位素的独立产生截面则偏离这一直线关系。这一事实可对在深部非弹转移过程中产生丰中子碘同位素予以解释。

~(12)C与~(133)Cs反应中Ba同位素的Q_(gg)产额依赖

使用47MeV/u12C离子轰击133Cs靶,由多核子转移反应产生Ba同位素。使用放射化学方法,从133Cs和反应产物中分离出产物Ba,再使用高纯Ge探测器测量Ba放射性同位素的γ活性,根据Ba同位素的活度和其他相关数据,确定Ba同位素的产生截面。通过分析测得的Ba同位素的厚靶平均产生截面,发现缺中子Ba同位素的独立截面不遵从规则的Qgg系统性。该结果可用重离子碰撞中的次级过程加以解释。

从CsCl靶中分离I、Ba和Ce的化学流程

用47MeV/nucleon的12C离子轰击133Cs靶,产生许多种不同元素的同位素。利用经典的化学分离方法,从大量的Cs和其它反应产物混合物中分离出I、Ba和Ce等。使用离线γ谱学方法,完成I、Ba、Ce等样品的γ活性测量。根据每种元素不同同位素的特征γ射线峰的强度和丰度,对I、Ba和Ce等样品中杂质的含量进行分析。结果显示该流程对杂质元素去污的效果是满意的。

N=81近球形141Nd和142Pm核高自旋态能级结构

本论文首先介绍了原子核高自旋态研究的一般概况以及其物理解释的基本理论，然后介绍了在束Y谱学及其实验技术。在此基础上分析和讨论了141Nd和142Pm核的高自旋态实验研究。利用能量为75-95 Mevl0F束流，通过反应128Te（19F，5ny)142Pm研究了双奇核142Pm的高自旋态能级结构。实验中进行了丫射线激发函数和Y-Y符合测量。建立了限Pm核高自旋态能级纲图，位于前人建议的一个2毫秒、8-同质异能态之上。由测量的丫射线激发函数和Y一Y符合关系，澄清了一个67微秒同质异能态及其衰变混乱的指定，本论文把67微秒同质异能态及其衰变指定给了142Pm，建议此同质异能态的激发能为2828.5 keV，推断此同质异能态的自旋宇称为13-。在本实验研究的同时，有人利用133Cs（13C，4n）142Pm反应报道了一个建立在2毫秒、8-同质异能态之上的142P亩高自旋态能级纲图；除了相应Y跃迁的多极性有较大差别外，他们报道的瞬Pm高自旋态能级纲图与我们建立在67微秒同质异能态上的基本一致。根据能级结构的系统性，识别了四个两准粒子态，一个为g7/2质子空穴耦合h11／2中子空穴激发，另外三个是h11／2质子藕合h11／2中子空穴多重态成员。根据经验壳模型计算建议了几个新建的关键能级的组态。67微秒同质异能态的组态被建议为一个四空穴态（πg_(7/2)~(-1)d_(5/2)~(-2)vh_(11/2)~(-1)）_(13)-。通过130Te（16O，5nγ）141Nd反应布居了14tNd的高自旋态能级。对反应产生的在束丫射线进行了γ射线单谱和γ-γ符合测量。基于γ-γ符合关系，对原来的141Nd的高自旋态能级纲图做了很大修改，建立了14lNd核高自旋态能级纲图。新观察到了一个由八条γ射线组成的长E2级联跃迁，并指定给了141Nd。基于实验测量的γ跃迁各向异性，建议了141Nd部分能级的自旋值。根据经验壳模型和粒子震动祸合理论，用一个h11／2价中子空穴祸合142Nd核芯晕态激发定性地解释141Nd的能级结构，新发现的长E2级联跃迁很可能涉及两个hu/2质子激发。

Mass-imbalanced three-body systems in two dimensions

We consider three-body systems in two dimensions with zero-range interactions for general masses and interaction strengths. The momentum-space Schrödinger equation is solved numerically and in the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation. The BO expression is derived using separable potentials and yields a concise adiabatic potential between the two heavy particles. The BO potential is Coulomb-like and exponentially decreasing at small and large distances, respectively. While we find similar qualitative features to previous studies, we find important quantitative differences. Our results demonstrate that mass-imbalanced systems that are accessible in the field of ultracold atomic gases can have a rich three-body bound state spectrum in two-dimensional geometries. Small light-heavy mass ratios increase the number of bound states. For 87Rb-87Rb-6Li and 133Cs- 133Cs-6Li we find respectively three and four bound states. © 2013 IOP Publishing Ltd.

Classical bifurcation in a quadrupolar NMR system

The Josephson junction model is applied to the experimental implementation of classical bifurcation in a quadrupolar nuclear magnetic resonance system. There are two regimes, one linear and one nonlinear, which are implemented by the radio-frequency and the quadrupolar terms of the Hamiltonian of a spin system, respectively. These terms provide an explanation of the symmetry breaking due to bifurcation. Bifurcation depends on the coexistence of both regimes at the same time in different proportions. The experiment is performed on a lyotropic liquid crystal sample of an ordered ensemble of 133Cs nuclei with spin I = 7/2 at room temperature. Our experimental results confirm that bifurcation happens independently of the spin value and of the physical system. With this experimental spin scenario, we confirm that a quadrupolar nuclei system could be described analogously to a symmetric two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate.

Evidence for extinct Cs-135 from Ba isotopes in Allende CAIs?

he abundance and distribution of isotopes throughout the Solar System can be used to constrain the number and type of nucleosynthetic events that contributed material to the early nebula. Barium is particularly well suited to quantifying the degree of isotope heterogeneity in the Solar System because it comprises seven stable isotopes that were synthesized by three different nucleosynthetic processes (s-, r-, and p-processes), all of which contributed material to the Solar System. There is also potential contribution to 135Ba from short-lived radioisotope 135Cs, conclusive evidence for which is yet to be reported. Four Allende (CV3) Ca,Al-rich inclusions (CAI 1, CAI 2, CAI 4, CAI 5) and one Allende dark inclusion (DI) were analyzed for Ba isotope variability. Two CAIs (CAI 2 and CAI 5) display 135Ba excesses that are not accompanied by 137Ba anomalies. Calcium–aluminum-rich inclusion 1 displays a 135Ba excess that is possibly coupled with a 137Ba excess, and the remaining refractory inclusions (CAI 2 and DI) have terrestrial Ba isotope compositions. These Ba isotope data are presented in conjunction with published whole rock Ba isotope data from individual Allende CAIs. The enrichment in 135Ba and absence of coupled 137Ba excesses in CAI 2 and CAI 5 is interpreted to indicate that the anomalies are not purely nucleosynthetic in origin but also contain contributions (16–48 ppm) from the decay of short-lived 135Cs. The majority of Allende CAIs studied to date may also have similar contributions from 135Cs on the basis of higher than expected 135Ba excesses if the Ba isotope anomalies were purely nucleosynthetic in origin. The 135Ba anomalies appear not to be coupled with superchondritic Cs/Ba, which may imply that the contribution to 135Ba did not occur via in situ decay of live 135Cs. However, it is feasible that the CAIs had a superchondritic Cs/Ba during decay of 135Cs, but Cs was subsequently removed from the system during aqueous alteration on the parent body. An alternative scenario is the potential existence of a transient high-temperature reservoir having superchondritic Cs/Ba in the early Solar System while 135Cs was extant, which enabled a radiogenic 135Ba signature to develop in some early condensates. The nucleosynthetic source of 135Cs can be determined by reconciling the predicted astrophysical 135Cs abundance with its measured abundance in meteorites. Further, the currently accepted initial 135Cs/133Cs of the Solar System, [135Cs/133Cs]0, may be underestimated because the spread of Cs/Ba among samples is small and the range of excess 135Ba is limited thus leading to inaccuracies when estimating [135Cs/133Cs]0. If the initial meteoritic abundance of 135Cs was indeed higher than is currently thought, the most probable stellar source of short-lived radioisotopes was a nearby core-collapse supernova and/or the Wolf–Rayet wind driven by its progenitor.
