The concise guide to pharmacology 2019/20: Ion channels

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2019/20 is the fourth in this series of biennial publications. The Concise Guide provides concise overviews of the key properties of nearly 1800 human drug targets with an emphasis on selective pharmacology (where available), plus links to the open access knowledgebase source of drug targets and their ligands (www.guidetopharmacology.org), which provides more detailed views of target and ligand properties. Although the Concise Guide represents approximately 400 pages, the material presented is substantially reduced compared to information and links presented on the website. It provides a permanent, citable, point‐in‐time record that will survive database updates. The full contents of this section can be found at http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bph.14749. Ion channels are one of the six major pharmacological targets into which the Guide is divided, with the others being: G protein‐coupled receptors, nuclear hormone receptors, catalytic receptors, enzymes and transporters. These are presented with nomenclature guidance and summary information on the best available pharmacological tools, alongside key references and suggestions for further reading. The landscape format of the Concise Guide is designed to facilitate comparison of related targets from material contemporary to mid‐2019, and supersedes data presented in the 2017/18, 2015/16 and 2013/14 Concise Guides and previous Guides to Receptors and Channels. It is produced in close conjunction with the International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology Committee on Receptor Nomenclature and Drug Classification (NC‐IUPHAR), therefore, providing official IUPHAR classification and nomenclature for human drug targets, where appropriate

Influence of heavy resonances in SMASH

Recent lattice QCD results, comparing to a hadron resonance gas model, have shown the need for hundreds of particles in hadronic models. These extra particles influence both the equation of state and hadronic interactions within hadron transport models. Here, we introduce the PDG21+ particle list, which contains the most up-to-date database of particles and their properties. We then convert all particles decays into 2 body decays so that they are compatible with SMASH in order to produce a more consistent description of a heavy-ion collision

Cross-conductivity: Novel transport coefficients to constrain the hadronic degrees of freedom of nuclear matter

In general, the constituents of the bulk matter produced in heavy-ion collisions carry, besides electric charge, multiple other conserved quantum numbers like baryon number and strangeness. Therefore, an electric field will not only generate an electric current but, at the same time, also currents in baryon number and strangeness. We propose that the impact of the electric field on these conserved currents should be characterized by additional transport coefficients, which we call cross-conductivities. In this paper, we introduce and present a calculation of these cross-conductivities from the Green-Kubo formalism within the transport code SMASH for different chemical compositions of hadron resonance gases. We find that the coefficients underlie an ordering in the active degrees of freedom and that thus the chemical composition of the system plays a crucial role. Further, we argue that in future comparisons of lattice QCD calculations with these findings, one could constrain which degrees of freedom and their corresponding charge properties are relevant for the QCD dynamics of the system.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figure

Diffusionsschweissen von ODS-Legierungen mit Hilfe der HIP-Technik

The ODS materials Inconel MA754, Inconel MA6000 and Incoloy MA956 as well as the alloy Incoloy 800H were examined for their diffusion weldability using HIP techniques. Two test specimens $\varnothing$ 8 mm x 35 mm in length of the same materials as well as combinations of an ODS partner material and Incoloy 800H were joined with each other. Optimum adjustment of the HIP parameters - pressure, time and temperature - for the respective material is indispensable for good diffusion welding and was therefore aimed at during the first experimental phase. A good diffusion bond is characterized by the strength of the bonding zone. In order to determine the tensile strength, yield strength and elongation, two identical specimens (same combination under the same HIP conditions) were tested to rupture in a tensile test device at room temperature (RT) and 800°C. It was found that several specimens failed in the region of the joint. This was mainly due to the fact that the HIP pressure adjusted at 40 MPa was too low, but may also be attributed to other causes which still remain to be clarified. For example, the influence of the specimen surface condition was not known. The second experimental phase therefore served to selectively vary the roughness of the bond surface. Gastight encapsulation of the composite material in the joint is required for diffusion bonding by means of HIP. In addition to the conventional method of stainless steel encapsulation, an LPPS (Low Pressure Plasma Spray) encapsulation of the joint was also tested. This type of encapsulation is a simplified and possibly also less costly method, in particular for joining bodies of a complicated shape
