Threshold Laws for the Break-up of Atomic Particles into Several Charged Fragments
The processes with three or more charged particles in the final state exhibit
particular threshold behavior, as inferred by the famous Wannier law for (2e +
ion) system. We formulate a general solution which determines the threshold
behavior of the cross section for multiple fragmentation. Applications to
several systems of particular importance with three, four and five leptons
(electrons and positrons) in the field of charged core; and two pairs of
identical particles with opposite charges are presented. New threshold
exponents for these systems are predicted, while some previously suggested
threshold laws are revised.Comment: 40 pages, Revtex, scheduled for the July issue of Phys.Rev.A (1998

Evolution and Impact of Bars over the Last Eight Billion Years: Early Results from GEMS
Bars drive the dynamical evolution of disk galaxies by redistributing mass
and angular momentum, and they are ubiquitous in present-day spirals. Early
studies of the Hubble Deep Field reported a dramatic decline in the rest-frame
optical bar fraction f_opt to below 5% at redshifts z>0.7, implying that disks
at these epochs are fundamentally different from present-day spirals. The GEMS
bar project, based on ~8300 galaxies with HST-based morphologies and accurate
redshifts over the range 0.2-1.1, aims at constraining the evolution and impact
of bars over the last 8 Gyr. We present early results indicating that f_opt
remains nearly constant at ~30% over the range z=0.2-1.1,corresponding to
lookback times of ~2.5-8 Gyr. The bars detected at z>0.6 are primarily strong
with ellipticities of 0.4-0.8. Remarkably, the bar fraction and range of bar
sizes observed at z>0.6 appear to be comparable to the values measured in the
local Universe for bars of corresponding strengths. Implications for bar
evolution models are discussed.Comment: Submitted June 25, 2004. 10 pages 5 figures. To appear in Penetrating

Differential patterns of activity and functional connectivity in emotion processing neural circuitry to angry and happy faces in adolescents with and without suicide attempt
Background - Neural substrates of emotion dysregulation in adolescent suicide attempters remain unexamined. Method - We used functional magnetic resonance imaging to measure neural activity to neutral, mild or intense (i.e. 0%, 50% or 100% intensity) emotion face morphs in two separate emotion-processing runs (angry and happy) in three adolescent groups: (1) history of suicide attempt and depression (ATT, n = 14); (2) history of depression alone (NAT, n = 15); and (3) healthy controls (HC, n = 15). Post-hoc analyses were conducted on interactions from 3 group × 3 condition (intensities) whole-brain analyses (p < 0.05, corrected) for each emotion run. Results - To 50% intensity angry faces, ATT showed significantly greater activity than NAT in anterior cingulate gyral–dorsolateral prefrontal cortical attentional control circuitry, primary sensory and temporal cortices; and significantly greater activity than HC in the primary sensory cortex, while NAT had significantly lower activity than HC in the anterior cingulate gyrus and ventromedial prefrontal cortex. To neutral faces during the angry emotion-processing run, ATT had significantly lower activity than NAT in the fusiform gyrus. ATT also showed significantly lower activity than HC to 100% intensity happy faces in the primary sensory cortex, and to neutral faces in the happy run in the anterior cingulate and left medial frontal gyri (all p < 0.006,corrected). Psychophysiological interaction analyses revealed significantly reduced anterior cingulate gyral–insula functional connectivity to 50% intensity angry faces in ATT v. NAT or HC. Conclusions - Elevated activity in attention control circuitry, and reduced anterior cingulate gyral–insula functional connectivity, to 50% intensity angry faces in ATT than other groups suggest that ATT may show inefficient recruitment of attentional control neural circuitry when regulating attention to mild intensity angry faces, which may represent a potential biological marker for suicide risk
Anionic Photofragmentation of CO: A Selective Probe of Core-Level Resonances
Anion-yield spectroscopy using x rays is shown to be a selective probe of molecular core-level processes, providing unique experimental verification of shape resonances. For CO, partial anion and cation yields are presented for photon energies near the C K edge. The O- yield exhibits features above threshold related only to doubly excited states, in contrast to cation yields which also exhibit pronounced structure due to the well-known σ* shape resonance. Because the shape resonance is completely suppressed for O-, anion spectroscopy thus constitutes a highly selective probe, yielding information unobtainable with absorption or electron spectroscopy

The biggest difficulty of humans cannot change or advance the quality of life is an unwillingness to change their errors and shortcomings and to repent from it. There is also willing to change but they do not change just because no action and do not really do it. There are also people who have already known that it is true, accurate, should be performed and corresponding to the norms, but still they live in sin and self-interest to ignore the interests of others. Even worse is evil (sin) is often covered in hypocrisy behind beautiful, sweet, gentle, and courteous words to make people mesmerized/hypnotized. In the case of real repentance, it should demand a match between words and actions. If there is repentance, there is a change and peace. Therefore, humans must sincerely repent and strive for it
