Hadron-nucleus scattering in the local reggeon model with pomeron loops for realistic nuclei
Contribution of simplest loops for hadron-nucleus scattering cross-sections
is studied in the Local Reggeon Field Theory with a supercritical pomeron. It
is shown that inside the nucleus the supercritical pomeron transforms into a
subcritical one, so that perturbative treatment becomes possible. The pomeron
intercept becomes complex, which leads to oscillations in the cross-sections.Comment: 13 pages, 6 figure
Coherent vs incoherent interlayer transport in layered metals
The magnetic-field, temperature, and angular dependence of the interlayer
magnetoresistance of two different quasi-two-dimensional (2D) organic
superconductors is reported. For -(BEDT-TTF)I we find a
well-resolved peak in the angle-dependent magnetoresistance at (field parallel to the layers). This clear-cut proof for the coherent
nature of the interlayer transport is absent for
''-(BEDT-TTF)SFCHCFSO. This and the non-metallic
behavior of the magnetoresistance suggest an incoherent quasiparticle motion
for the latter 2D metal.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures. Phys. Rev. B, in pres
Slow oscillations of magnetoresistance in quasi-two-dimensional metals
Slow oscillations of the interlayer magnetoresistance observed in the layered
organic metal -(BEDT-TTF)IBr are shown to originate from the
slight warping of its Fermi surface rather than from independent small
cyclotron orbits. Unlike the usual Shubnikov-de Haas effect, these oscillations
are not affected by the temperature smearing of the Fermi distribution and can
therefore become dominant at high enough temperatures. We suggest that the slow
oscillations are a general feature of clean quasi-two-dimensional metals and
discuss possible applications of the phenomenon.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure
Fermiology and superconductivity studies on the non-tetrachalcogenafulvalene structured organic superconductor beta-(BDA-TTP)_2SbF_6
The quantum oscillatory effect and superconductivity in a
non-tetrachalcogenafulvalene (TCF) structure based organic superconductor
beta-(BDA-TTP)_2SbF_6 are studied. Here the Shubnikov-de Haas effect (SdH) and
angular dependent magnetoresistance oscillations (AMRO) are observed. The
oscillation frequency associated with a cylindrical Fermi surface is found to
be about 4050 tesla, which is also verified by the tunnel diode oscillator
(TDO) measurement. The upper critical field Hc2 measurement in a tilted
magnetic field and the TDO measurement in the mixed state reveal a highly
anisotropic superconducting nature in this material. We compared physical
properties of beta-(BDA-TTP)_2SbF_6 with typical TCF structure based quasi
two-dimensional organic conductors. A notable feature of beta-(BDA-TTP)_2SbF_6
superconductor is a large value of effective cyclotron mass m_c^*=12.4+/1.1
m_e, which is the largest yet found in an organic superconductor. A possible
origin of the enhanced effective mass and its relation to the superconductivity
are briefly discussed.Comment: 8 pages, 10 figure
Normal radial migration and lamination are maintained in dyslexia-susceptibility candidate gene homolog Kiaa0319 knockout mice
AbstractDevelopmental dyslexia is a common disorder with a strong genetic component, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are still unknown. Several candidate dyslexia-susceptibility genes, including KIAA0319, DYX1C1, and DCDC2, have been identified in humans. RNA interference experiments targeting these genes in rat embryos have shown impairments in neuronal migration, suggesting that defects in radial cortical migration could be involved in the disease mechanism of dyslexia. Here we present the first characterisation of a Kiaa0319 knockout mouse line. Animals lacking KIAA0319 protein do not show anatomical abnormalities in any of the layered structures of the brain. Neurogenesis and radial migration of cortical projection neurons are not altered, and the intrinsic electrophysiological properties of Kiaa0319-deficient neurons do not differ from those of wild-type neurons. Kiaa0319 overexpression in cortex delays radial migration, but does not affect final neuronal position. However, knockout animals show subtle differences suggesting possible alterations in anxiety-related behaviour and in sensorimotor gating. Our results do not reveal a migration disorder in the mouse model, adding to the body of evidence available for Dcdc2 and Dyx1c1 that, unlike in the rat in utero knockdown models, the dyslexia-susceptibility candidate mouse homolog genes do not play an evident role in neuronal migration. However, KIAA0319 protein expression seems to be restricted to the brain, not only in early developmental stages but also in adult mice, indicative of a role of this protein in brain function. The constitutive and conditional knockout lines reported here will be useful tools for further functional analyses of Kiaa0319
