Spin alignment of vector meson in e+e- annihilation at Z0 pole
We calculate the spin density matrix of the vector meson produced in e+e-
annihilation at Z^0 pole. We show that the data imply a significant
polarization for the antiquark which is created in the fragmentation process of
the polarized initial quark and combines with the fragmenting quark to form the
vector meson. The direction of polarization is opposite to that of the
fragmenting quark and the magnitude is of the order of 0.5. A qualitative
explanation of this result based on the LUND string fragmentation model is
given.Comment: 15 pages, 2 fgiures; submitted to Phys. Rev.
Spin Alignment of Vector Meson in High Energy Reactions
The recent data on the polarization of vector meson at LEP show that the
vector mesons favor the helicity zero state. We calculate the helicity density
matrix of vector meson which contains a polarized fragmenting quark by adding
the spin of the fragmenting quark and that of the antiquark created in the
fragmentation. The data at LEP imply a significant polarization for the
antiquark in the opposite direction as that of the fragmenting quark. We extend
the calculations to other reactions and make predictions for vector mesons in
deeply inelastic lepton-nucleon scatterings and polarized collisions.Comment: 4 pages,3 figures, Talk given at 3rd Circum-Pan-Pacific Symposium on

catena-Poly[[aquaÂ(dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine-Îş2 N 4,N 5)iron(II)]-ÎĽ-pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylÂato-Îş3 N 1,O 2:O 3]
In the title compound, [Fe(C6H2N2O4)(C18H10N4)(H2O)]n, the FeII ion adopts a slightly distorted octahedral mer-FeN3O3 geometry, arising from one N,N′-bidentate dipyrido[3,2-a:2′,3′-c]phenazine ligand, one N,O-chelating pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylÂate dianion and one water molÂecule. An O-bonded symmetry-related dianion completes the coordination of the metal. The bridging dianion results in a one-dimensional polymeric chain. Aromatic π–π stacking interÂactions between ligands [centroid–centroid separations = 3.528 (2) and 3.741 (2) Å] and O—Hâ‹ŻO and O—Hâ‹ŻN hydrogen bonds link the chains together, leading to a three-dimensional supraÂmolecular network

In the title compound, [Co(C6H2N2O4)(C14H8N4)(H2O)]n, the Co atom is bonded to one N,N′-bidentate pyrazino[2,3-f][1,10]phenanthroline (Pyphen) ligand, one N,O-bidentate pyrazine-2,3-dicarboxylÂate (PZDC) dianion and one water molÂecule in a distorted octaÂhedral mer-CoN3O3 geometry. The CoII atoms are bridged by the PZDC dianions, forming an infinite one-dimensional chain running along the b axis. Adjacent chains pack together through π–π stacking interÂactions [centroid–centroid separations = 3.498 (4) and 3.528 (4) Å], and O—Hâ‹ŻO and O—Hâ‹ŻN hydrogen bonds involving the water molÂecule complete the structure

The "Shakespeare Authorship Question"—regarding the identity of the poet-playwright—has been debated for over 150 years. Now, with the growing list of signatories to the "Declaration of Reasonable Doubt," the creation of a Master's Degree program in Authorship Studies at Brunel University in London, the opening of the Shakespeare Authorship Research Studies Center at the Library of Concordia University in Portland, and the release of two competing high-profile books both entitled Shakespeare Beyond Doubt, academic libraries are being presented with a unique and timely opportunity to participate in and encourage this debate, which has long been considered a taboo subject in the academy.https://journal.lib.uoguelph.ca/index.php/perj/article/view/280
Geochemical characteristics of biogenic barium in sediments of the Antarctica Ross Sea and their indication for paleoproductivity
241-248In this paper, the biogenic Ba of Column R11 in the Antarctic Ross Sea and its implications to the paleo oceanographic productivity since the late of Late Quaternary were discussed, combined with the organic carbon, opal and biogenic calcium carbonate. The biogenic Ba contents ranged from 51.8 to 508.4 μg/g overall, exhibiting a gradually rising trend from the bottom to the top. It highly correlated both with TOC and opal, revealing that on one hand biogenic Ba can be used to study the change of productivity in the Ross Sea; and on the other hand, the marine productivity gradually increased since the late Pleistocene. The new productivity based on Francois model varied from 0.40 to 233.90 gC/(m2•a). The high values were mainly concentrated at the depth from 32 to 48 cm, but the new productivity values of the bottom were lower. It was inferred that the change in marine productivity in the Ross Sea was possibly affected by the ice cover since the late Pleistocene
