The first metal coordination complex of a radical ligand based on the 1,2,3-dithiazolyl heterocycle is reported. 6,7-Dimethyl-1,4-dioxo-naphtho[2,3-d][1,2,3]dithiazolyl acts as a bridging ligand in the volatile trinuclear Mn(hfac)(2)-Rad-Mn(hfac)(2)-Rad-Mn(hfac)(2) complex (hfac = 1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoroacetylacetonato-). The Mn(II) and radical ligand spins are coupled anti-ferromagnetically (AF...

Over the past decade, our understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms presiding over cellular and tissue decline with aging has greatly advanced. Classical hallmarks of aging cell include increasing levels of reactive oxygen species, DNA damage and senescence entry, which disrupt tissue architecture and function. Tissue dysfunction with aging has been shown to correlate with a cellul...

In the present paper we studied the properties of them−projective curvature tensor in LP-Sasakian, Einstein LP-Sasakian and η−Einstein LPSasakian manifolds.

We suggest a new scheme to create chirped microbend long period gratings. Employing this scheme, the bandwidth of mode conversion between LP01 to LP11 is increased 4.8-fold with a conversion efficiency of 20 dB. This scheme includes a first time demonstration of a non-linearly chirped long period grating. The scheme is investigated both numerically using coupled mode equat...
