Precision determination of the dpi<-->NN transition strength at threshold.
نویسندگان
چکیده
An unusual but effective way to determine at threshold the dpi<-->NN transition strength alpha is to exploit the hadronic ground-state broadening Gamma(1s) in pionic deuterium, accessible by x-ray spectroscopy. The broadening is dominated by the true absorption channel dpi(-)-->nn, which is related to s-wave pion production pp-->dpi(+) by charge symmetry and detailed balance. Using the exotic atom circumvents the problem of Coulomb corrections to the cross section as necessary in the production experiments. Our dedicated measurement finds Gamma(1s)=(1171(-49)(+23)) meV yielding alpha=(252(-11)(+5)) microb.

Determining the progression stages of liver fibrosis in patients with chronic hepatitis B
Introduction: Chronic hepatitis B (CHB) leads to liver fibrosis, its failure, and death in the long term. The stage of fibrosis in CHB patients can also be detected based on the biochemical markers. The aim of this study was to predict the state of liver fibrosis in CHB patients and determine the possibility of patients shifting from a given state to another one. Materials and Methods: This stu...

The determination of formation constants of binary inner transition metal complexes where M=Y(III) or La(III) or Ce(III) or Pr(III) or Nd(III) or Sm (III) or Gd (III) or Dy (III) or Th(IV) andL = Creatinine have been carried out using Irving–Rossotti titration technique in aqueous mediaat different temperatures and at ionic strength. To understand more about the nature ofequilibrium involving i...
متن کاملPhase diagrams in the lattice restricted primitive model: from order-disorder to gas-liquid phase transition.
The phase behavior of the lattice restricted primitive model (RPM) for ionic systems with additional short-range nearest neighbor (NN) repulsive interactions has been studied by grand canonical Monte Carlo simulations. We obtain a rich phase behavior as the NN strength is varied. In particular, the phase diagram is very similar to that of the continuum RPM for high NN strength. Specifically, we...
متن کاملInvestigating wind erosion threshold velocity and the effect of soil characteristics in dust production centers in Alborz province
Dust phenomenon is one of the most common and destructive phenomena in the dry and desert regions of the world and Iran, which can have harmful effects on human life and the environment. Wind erosion and the removal and transport of soil particles by wind create dust. Controlling wind erosion will be effective when enough information is available on the factors affecting it. The results of the...
