the 1h and natural-abundance 13c-nmr spectra of 1-thiacyclooctan-3-one (1) have been measured from 25 to -100°c. coalescence is observed in the 1h-nmr spectra of (1) at about -80°c, and attributed to ring inversion in a boat-chair conformation, which is the predominant conformation of (1). the free energy of activation (dg¹) for this process is 9.2±0.2 kcal/mol. the 13c-nmr spectra of (1) is te...

The effect of a microscopic three-body force on the saturation properties of nuclear matter is studied within the Brueckner-Hartree-Fock approach. The calculations show a decisive improvement of the saturation density along with an overall agreement with the empirical saturation point. With the three-body force the symmetry energy turns more rapidly increasing with density, which allows for the...

The development of an organism is accompanied by various cellular morphogenetic movements, changes in cellular as well as nuclear morphology and transcription programs. Recent evidence suggests that intra and inter-cellular connections mediated by various adhesion proteins contribute to defining nuclear morphology. In addition, three dimensional organization of the cell nucleus regulate the tra...
