    Near-barrier Fusion Induced by Stable Weakly Bound and Exotic Halo Light Nuclei

    Get PDF
    The effect of breakup is investigated for the medium weight 6^{6}Li+59^{59}Co system in the vicinity of the Coulomb barrier. The strong coupling of breakup/transfer channels to fusion is discussed within a comparison of predictions of the Continuum Discretized Coupled-Channels model which is also applied to 6^{6}He+59^{59}Co a reaction induced by the borromean halo nucleus 6^{6}He.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures.

    Hyperbolic Unit Groups and Quaternion Algebras

    We Classify the rational quadratic extensions K and the finite groups G for which the group ring R[G] of G over the ring R of integers of K has the property that the group of units of augmentation 1 of R[G] is hyperbolic. We also construct units in a non-split quaternion algebra over R.Comment: 15 pages, this work is part of the PHd. Thesis of the third author.

    Experimental realization of the Yang-Baxter Equation via NMR interferometry

    The Yang-Baxter equation is an important tool in theoretical physics, with many applications in different domains that span from condensed matter to string theory. Recently, the interest on the equation has increased due to its connection to quantum information processing. It has been shown that the Yang-Baxter equation is closely related to quantum entanglement and quantum computation. Therefore, owing to the broad relevance of this equation, besides theoretical studies, it also became significant to pursue its experimental implementation. Here, we show an experimental realization of the Yang-Baxter equation and verify its validity through a Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) interferometric setup. Our experiment was performed on a liquid state Iodotrifluoroethylene sample which contains molecules with three qubits. We use Controlled-transfer gates that allow us to build a pseudo-pure state from which we are able to apply a quantum information protocol that implements the Yang-Baxter equation.Comment: 10 pages and 6 figure

    α-N-heterocyclic thiosemicarbazone derivatives as potential antitumor agents: A structure-activity relationships approach

    Full text link
    α-N-Heterocyclic thiosemicarbazones, (N)-TSCs, are potent inhibitors of ribonucleotide reductase (RR). This enzyme plays a critical role in DNA synthesis and repair, and is a well-recognized target for cancer chemotherapeutic agents. In this review the structural features of (N)-TSCs, required for maximum antitumour activity have been explored. Special attention is given to the mechanisms of action and structure-activity relationshipsThe authors research work presented in this review was supported by Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación, Instituto de Salud Carlos III (PI040354 and PI080525), Comunidad de Madrid (GR/SAL/0180/2004) and Universidad Autónoma de Madrid-Comunidad de Madrid (CCG08-UAM/SAL-4000) of Spai

A definitive version was subsequently published in Inorganic Chemistry Communications 27 (2013): 5-8 DOI http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.inoche.2012.10.022Reaction of 2,6-diacetylpyridine bis(4N-o- tolylthiosemicarbazone), H2L1, with K2PtCl 4 and further recrystallization in DMSO/MeOH of the [PtL1] complex obtained, led to the isolation of the novel platinum complex, [PtL 2], which was structurally characterized by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The molecular structure shows that the ligand has undergone an unexpected chemical transformation viz. reduction of one of the terminal phenyl rings into cyclohexyl. The resulted asymmetrical ligand acts a dianionic tetradentate donor, coordinating to the platinum (II) center in a square planar geometry through the Npyridinic atom and the Niminic and the S atoms from one thiosemicarbazone arm, the fourth coordination position is occupied by the Nhydrazinic atom of the other armWe are grateful to Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad.

    A Detection Method for Tropical Race 4 of the Banana Pathogen Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense

    Get PDF
    Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense (Foc) is the causal agent of Fusarium wilt, the devastating disease that ruined the ‘Gros Michel’ (AAA)-based banana production in the first half of the 20th century. The occurrence of a new variant in Southeast Asia that overcomes the resistance in Cavendish clones such as ‘Grand Naine’ (AAA) is a major concern to current banana production worldwide. The threat posed by this new variant, called tropical race 4 (TR4), may be overcome by the introduction of resistant cultivars. However, the identification of new resistant sources or breeding for resistance is a long-term effort. Currently, the only option to control the disease is to avoid or reduce the spread of the pathogen by eradication of infected plants and isolation of infested plantations. This requires sensitive and highly specific diagnostics that enable early detection of the pathogen. A two-locus database of DNA sequences, from over 800 different isolates from multiple formae speciales of F. oxysporum, was used to develop a molecular diagnostic tool that specifically detects isolates from the vegetative compatibility group (VCG) 01213, which encompasses the Foc TR4 genotype. This diagnostic tool was able to detect all Foc TR4 isolates tested, while none of the Foc isolates from 19 VCGs other than 01213 showed any reaction. In addition, the developed diagnostic tool was able to detect Foc TR4 when using DNA samples from different tissues of ‘Grand Naine’ plants inoculated with TR4 isolate
