Bords d'une surface médiane : Identifications et applications
2014
National audience; Un squelette d'une forme fermée est une structure mince, centrée dans cette forme, décrivant sa topologie et sa géométrie. Les squelettes permettent de développer des applications interactives en synthèse d'images~: l'utilisateur peut manipuler intuitivement des formes en modifiant leurs squelettes. Parmi toutes les formulations de squelettes, nous nous intéressons en particulier à la surface médiane. Ses éléments, nommés atomes, sont les sphères maximales intérieures à la forme décrite. Les positions des atomes sont organisées en courbes et surfaces, qui composent la structure squelettale. Cette structure peut être d'une grande aide pour manipuler une forme. Cependant, e…
Small angle scattering study of poly(methylmethacrylate)-block-poly(ethylene oxide) block co-polymer in aqueous solution
2005
A combined Small Angle X ray (SAXS) and Neutron (SANS) Scattering study of aqueous solutions of a symmetric block copolymer consisting of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) moieties is presented. The polymer forms slightly polydisperse spherical micelles in a wide range of concentration (0.03 – 6.7 w/V) and temperature (20°C ≤ T ≤ 65°C). A good description of the SANS data is obtained using a polydisperse core-shell model with a structure factor for a modified hard sphere potential. By increasing the concentration at constant T we observed a decrease of the aggregation number and an increase of solvation of PEO groups in the shell, opposite to what happens by in…
Efectos teratogenos de la radiacion sobre las extremidades : estudio experimental en el embrion de pollo
1987
Experimental development limbs anormality in the chick embryo by Co-60 radiation is reported along a period of time from hatching until ten days after birth. The malformations in the lower limbs and in the wings are described according to the embriological stage ant the radiation dose used.
In-beam study of the 128, 130Xe nuclei
1981
Abstract The level structure of 128,130Xe has been studied in the (α, 2nγ) and (3He, 3nγ) reactions on enriched Te targets using in-beam γ-ray spectroscopic methods. For both nuclei the existing information about positive-parity level structure was enriched and many new negative-parity two-quasiparticle states were observed. Isomeric states with the half-lives of 63 ± 12 ns in 128 Xe and 4.8 ± 0.5 ns in 130 Xe were found. For collective positive-parity states the interacting boson model, and calculations based on Bohr hamiltonian were compared with the experimental data.
Preparation and crystal structure of the oxalato-bridged CrIII–AgItwo-dimensional compound {Ag3(H2O)[Cr(dpa)(ox)2]3}n·2nH2O (dpa = 2,2′-dipyridylamin…
2004
The reaction of the mononuclear complex [Cr(dpa)(ox)2]− (dpa = 2,2-dipyridylamine) with Ag+ in aqueous solution affords the two-dimensional compound {Ag3(H2O)[Cr(dpa)(ox)2]3}n·2nH2O (1) whose structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Six crystallographically independent metal atoms (three chromium and three silver atoms) occur in 1. The three [Cr(dpa)(ox)2]− units in 1 act as ligands towards the silver atoms through the two oxalate groups. Each oxalate group acts as bridging ligand adopting five coordination modes: bis-bidentate, bis-bidentate/monodentate (outer), bis-bidentate/monodentate (inner), bidentate/bis-monodentate (outer) and bidentate/monodentate (outer).…
Centrioles Shape ERK Signaling Outcomes to Support Lung Branching
2021
Centrioles comprise the heart of centrosomes, where they organize microtubules. To study the function of centrioles in development, we genetically disrupted centrioles throughout the mouse endoderm. Surprisingly, removing centrioles from endoderm did not disrupt intestinal growth or development. In contrast, in the lung, loss of centrioles blocked branching. In lung, loss of centrioles led to apoptosis specifically of SOX2-expressing airway epithelial cells. Loss of centrioles also activated p53. Deleting p53 in mice with acentriolar endoderm rescued SOX2+ cell survival, lung branching and viability. To investigate why endoderm-wide p53 activation specifically disrupted SOX2+ cell survival,…
Crystal structures, infrared-spectra, and thermal behavior of calcium hydrogenselenite monohydrate, Ca(HSeO3)2 · H2O, and dicalcium diselenite bis(hy…
1986
Abstract Calcium hydrogenselenite monohydrate and dicalcium diselenite bis(hydrogenselenite) were synthesized and their crystal structures determined. Crystal data for Ca(HSeO3)2 · H2O: a = 6.911(2), b = 7.369(2), c = 6.739(2) A, α = 90.51(3)°, β = 90.93(3)°, γ = 107.46(2)°, V = 327.3(2) A3, space group P 1 (No. 2), dcalcd = 3.19 M gm−3, Z = 2, and R = 0.036 for 1503 reflections. Data for Ca2(HSeO3)2(Se2O5): a = 14.719(4), b = 7.059(2), c = 11.793(2) A, β = 117.96(2)°, V = 1082.3(4) A3, space group C2 c (No. 15), dcalcd = 3.52 Mg m−3, Z = 4, and R = 0.047 for 1251 reflections. Both structures form a three-dimensional network. The coordination polyhedron around calcium is a monocapped trigon…
Defects in yttrium aluminium perovskite and garnet crystals: atomistic study
2000
Native and impurity point defects in both yttrium aluminium perovskite (YAP) and garnet (YAG) crystals are studied in the framework of the pair-potential approximation coupled with the shell model description of the lattice ions. The calculated formation energies for native defects suggest that the antisite disorder is preferred over the Frenkel and Schottky-like disorder in both YAP and YAG. The calculated values of the distortion caused by the antisite YAl x in the lattice turn out to be in an excellent agreement with the EXAFS measurements. In non-stoichiometric compounds, the calculated reaction energies indicate that excess Y2 O3 or Al2 O3 is most likely to be accommodated by the forma…
Outer and inner coordination sphere chemistry of polyazacyclophane platinum(II) complexes. Crystal structure of [PtBr4]2(H4L1) · H2O (L1 = 2,6,9,13-t…
1997
Abstract The interaction of PtCl42− with the new azaparacyclophane 2,5,8,11-tetraaza[12]paracyclophane (L2) has been studied by 1H, 13C and 195Pt NMR spectroscopy. Three different complexes are detected as a function of pH, all of them presenting cis-arrangement of nitrogen donors and chloride anions. In the first one, formed at acidic pH, the central nitrogen atoms of the macrocyclic are coordinating to Pt(II) while the benzylic nitrogens remain protonated. Deprotonation of these nitrogens brings about a reorganisation of the complex, and the platinum is then coordinated by one benzylic nitrogen and the consecutive nitrogen in the macrocycle. This process can be monitored by NMR. Finally, …
Hyperfine interaction in the Autler-Townes effect: The formation of bright, dark, and chameleon states
2017
This paper is devoted to clarifying the implications of hyperfine (HF) interaction in the formation of adiabatic (i.e., ``laser-dressed'') states and their expression in the Autler-Townes (AT) spectra. We first use the Morris-Shore model [J. R. Morris and B. W. Shore, Phys. Rev. A 27, 906 (1983)] to illustrate how bright and dark states are formed in a simple reference system where closely spaced energy levels are coupled to a single state with a strong laser field with the respective Rabi frequency ${\mathrm{\ensuremath{\Omega}}}_{S}$. We then expand the simulations to realistic hyperfine level systems in Na atoms for a more general case when non-negligible HF interaction can be treated as…
