Intramitochondrial positions of ubiquinone and iron-sulphur centres determined by dipolar interactions with paramagnetic ions.

E.p.r. (electron-paramagnetic-resonance) spectra of ubisemiquinone (QH) organic radicals and all of the known iron-sulphur centres were studied in normal and 'nickle-plated' pigeon heart mitochondria, submitochondrial particles and submitochondrial particles from which succinate dehydrogenase had been removed. Incubation of pigeon heart mitochondria, submitochondrial particles or succinate dehy...

Selective interactions in trapped ions: state reconstruction and quantum logic

We propose the implementation of selective interactions of atom-motion subspaces in trapped ions. These interactions yield resonant exchange of population inside a selected subspace, leaving the others in a highly dispersive regime. Selectivity allows us to generate motional Fock (and other nonclassical) states with high purity out of a wide class of initial states, and becomes an unconventiona...

Interactions of metal ions with DNA

Fabrication and Manipulation of Ionotropic Hydrogels Crosslinked by Paramagnetic Ions.

This manuscript describes the fabrication and manipulation of millimeter-scale spheres fabricated from ionotropic hydrogels that are crosslinked with paramagnetic metal ions (e.g., Ho(3+)). These ionotropic hydrogels experience a force in a magnetic field gradient that correlates with the concentration of the paramagnetic cations crosslinking the polymer. In an externally applied magnetic field...
