Synopsis Double photoionization (DPI) of lithium atoms in a magneto-optical trap by 85 eV and 91 eV photons from the Hamburg Free Electron Laser (FLASH) is investigated using cold target recoil ion momentum spectroscopy. For ejection of a 1s and the optically excited 2p electron we demonstrate that the DPI cross section significantly depends on the alignment of the 2p valence orbital. Thus, the...

In this paper it is proved, that for every prime number p, the set of cyclic p-roots in C is finite. Moreover the number of cyclic p-roots counted with multiplicity is equal to ( 2p−2 p−1 ) . In particular, the number of complex circulant Hadamard matrices of size p, with diagonal entries equal to 1, is less than or equal to ( 2p−2 p−1 ) .

Sigma models arise frequently in particle physics and condensed-matter physics as lowenergy effective theories. In this paper I compute the exact free energy at any temperature in two hierarchies of integrable sigma models in two dimensions. These theories, the SU(N)/SO(N) models and the O(2P )/O(P ) × O(P ) models, are asymptotically free and exhibit charge fractionalization. When the instanto...

A typical form of mass formula is re-explained in terms of nuclear structure. For N ≈ Z nuclei, we propose to start with the shell model picture and to consider the T = 0 2n−2p (αlike) correlations as the fundamental concept, instead of the symmetry energy. Subsequently, the symmetry energy is described on the basis of the α-like superfluidity caused by the T = 0 2n− 2p correlations, in paralle...

Resonant 2p x-ray absorption spectra of size-selected transition metal ions and clusters consisting of 1<or=n<or=200 atoms are reported. Remnants of atomic multiplet splitting in L(2,3)-edge x-ray absorption can be resolved up to the trimer, above which the overall line shape is already bulklike. A strong cluster size dependence of the L(2,3) branching ratio was found for titanium, vanadium, an...

A scheme utilizing excitation of core electrons followed by the resonant-Auger - interatomic Coulombic decay (RA-ICD) cascade was recently proposed as a means of controlling the generation site and energies of slow ICD electrons. This control mechanism was verified in a series of experiments in rare gas dimers. In this article, we present fully ab initio computed ICD electron and kinetic energy...

The role in protein folding of the eukaryotic chaperonin TRiC/CCT is only partially understood. Here, we show that a group of WD40 beta-propeller proteins in the yeast cytosol interact transiently with TRiC upon synthesis and require the chaperonin to reach their native state. TRiC cooperates in the folding of these proteins with the ribosome-associated heat shock protein (Hsp)70 chaperones Ssb...

Reaction of piperazine with isothiocyanate (iPrO)2P(S)NCS leads to N-thiophosphorylated bis-thiourea (iPrO)2P(S)NHC(S)NC4H8NC(S)NHP(S)(OiPr)2 (H2L). Recrystallization of H2L from DMSO leads to the formation of the new ligand (iPrO)2P(S)NC4H8NP(S)(OiPr)2 (1). Reaction of doubly deprotonated L with Co(II) leads to the [Co2L2] complex. The thermal properties of [Co2L2] in an air atmosphere were st...

In this work, the branching ratio $\mathcal{B}[B\to K\chi_{c0}(2P)]$ is extracted for first time through fit fractions in newly measured $B\to KD\bar{D}$ process by LHCb. With rescattering mechanism, reproduced well. Our study further enforces role of to establish $\chi_{c0}(2P)$ charmonium state, which a crucial step when constructing family.
