A DFT study for the regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of nitrile N-oxides toward alkynylboronates
2003
Abstract The mechanism for the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of benzonitrile oxide toward ethynyl and propynylboronate has been studied by using density functional theory (DFT) at B3LYP/6-31G* level. These cycloadditions are concerted [3+2] processes. The presence of the two oxygens on the boronic ester precludes the participation of the boron atom on [3+3] processes. The two regioisomeric channels associated to the formation of the isoxazoles bearing the boronic ester unit on the 4- or 5-positions have been characterized. The B3LYP/6-31G* activation parameters are in acceptable agreement with the experiments, allowing to explain the factors controlling these regioselective cycloadditions.
Actinide and lanthanide molecules to search for strong CP-violation
2020
The existence of the fundamental CP-violating interactions inside the nucleus leads to the existence of the nuclear Schiff moment. The Schiff moment potential corresponds to the electric field localized inside the nucleus and directed along its spin. This field can interact with electrons of an atom and induce the permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) of the whole system. The Schiff moment and corresponding electric field are enhanced in the nuclei with the octupole deformation leading to the enhanced atomic EDM. There is also a few-order enhancement of the T,P-violating effects in molecules due to the existence of energetically close levels of opposite parity. We study the Schiff moment e…
Effects of $CP$-violating internucleon interactions in paramagnetic molecules
2020
We demonstrate that electron electric dipole moment experiments with molecules in paramagnetic state are sensitive to $P,T$-violating nuclear forces and other $CP$-violating parameters in the hadronic sector. These experiments, in particular, measure the coupling constant $C_{SP}$ of the $CP$-odd contact semileptonic interaction. We establish relations between $C_{SP}$ and different $CP$-violating hadronic parameters including strength constants of the $CP$-odd nuclear potentials, $CP$-odd pion-nucleon interactions, quark-chromo EDM and QCD vacuum angle. These relations allow us to find limits on various $CP$-odd hadronic parameters.
Nonresistive dissipative magnetohydrodynamics from the Boltzmann equation in the 14-moment approximation
2018
We derive the equations of motion of relativistic, non-resistive, second-order dissipative magnetohydrodynamics from the Boltzmann equation using the method of moments. We assume the fluid to be composed of a single type of point-like particles with vanishing dipole moment or spin, so that the fluid has vanishing magnetization and polarization. In a first approximation, we assume the fluid to be non-resistive, which allows to express the electric field in terms of the magnetic field. We derive equations of motion for the irreducible moments of the deviation of the single-particle distribution function from local thermodynamical equilibrium. We analyze the Navier-Stokes limit of these equati…
Gas-filled recoil separator for studies of heavy elements
1995
Abstract A gas-filled recoil separator for the study of heavy elements has been constructed. The separator is of type QDQQ with the first, vertically focusing, quadrupole providing improved matching to the acceptance of the dipole magnet. The separator has been designed also for use in vacuum mode in which case a mass resolving power of ≈ 100 is estimated. The deflection angle is 25° and the radius of curvature is 1850 mm. Maximum beam rigidity is 2.2 T m. In the first experiments, new isotopes in the region Z = 85–90 have been synthesized.
Recent applications of the JYFL gas-filled recoil separator
1997
Abstract The gas-filled recoil separator RITU at the Department of Physics, University of Jyvaskyla (JYFL) was constructed in 1992–1993, and the first experiments were performed in late 1993. RITU differs from other gas-filled separators by having a vertically focusing quadrupole magnet in front of the separating dipole for better matching with the dipole acceptance. New results from RITU include the discovery of 13 previously unpublished isotopes of At, Rn, Fr, Ra, Ac and Th, while experiments in the transuranium region have also been made. Illustrative examples from these studies together with results on background properties, efficiency of separation, and other performance data will be p…
Ramsey technique applied in a Penning trap mass spectrometer
1991
Abstract The Ramsey method has been applied in an experiment aiming for accurate mass determination of unstable isotopes. The ion motion in a Penning trap has been excited with time-separated oscillatory fields and Ramsey fringes were observed in the case of dipole and quadrupole excitation. The experimental resonances are in good agreement with theory. Further applications of the technique are discussed.
Nuclear moments and laser spectroscopy
1990
Laser spectroscopy measurements have yielded a wealth of new information about the moments and charge radii of unstable isotopes. The procedures of evaluating these moments from the magnetic dipole and electric quadrupole terms of the hyperfine structure arew discussed. Examples are presented, with emphasis on the isotopic chains of odd-proton nuclei, and their essential features are put into the context of current theoretical model descriptions for spherical and deformed nuclei. Finally, new developments of extremely sensitive experimental techniques are discussed with regard to an application to nuclei very far from stability.
Far-off-resonance averaging of dipolar interactions in solids
1997
Abstract The far-off-resonance performance of several line-narrowing sequences is investigated. Both theoretically and experimentally, it is found that transverse relaxation times, dominated by dipole–dipole interactions, are most effectively prolonged not only on-resonance but also for certain, generally large, resonance offsets. These correspond to a situation when, during the basic pulse separation, the frequency offset rotates the toggling-frame Hamiltonian by multiples of 180°. The implications of these results for the study of macroscopic translational diffusion using static-field-gradient NMR are discussed.
The design of a new gas-filled separator at JYFL
2003
Abstract A new gas-filled recoil separator, intended mainly for the study of reaction products in mass region of 100–200 produced in symmetric or nearly symmetric reactions, is under design at the Department of Physics in the University of Jyvaskyla. The separator will be of the type DQQ where a horizontally focusing dipole (D) is followed by a quadrupole (Q) doublet. The bending radius of the dipole magnet will be 1850 mm and the bending angle 50°.
