Parasitic third harmonic absorption by deuterium in electron current drive scenarios is studied with the newly developed SELFO code calculating self-consistently the wave field and the deuterium distribution function including finite orbit widths and RF induced transport. Self-consistent calculations in toroidal geometry are obtained by iteratively calculating the ion distribution function with...

The strong-interaction shift πD 1s and broadening Γ πD 1s in pionic deuterium have been determined in a high statistics study of the πD(3p-1s) X-ray transition using a high-resolution crystal spectrometer. The pionic deuterium shift will provide constraints for the pion-nucleon isospin scattering lengths extracted from measurements of shift and broadening in pionic hydrogen. The hadronic broade...

The cover image is based on the Research Article A new deuterium-labeled compound [2,3,4,6,6’-2H5]-D-glucose for deuterium magnetic resonance metabolic imaging by Chao Zou et al., https://doi.org/10.1002/nbm.4890.

Ten years after the discovery of metallocarboranes, this field of chemistry is still advancing at a rapid pace. While the polyhedral expansion of carboranes has proved to be a general method for the synthesis of metallocarboranes, polymetallic compounds may be synthesized by polyhedral expansion of monometallocarboranes, sometimes producing supraicosahedral complexes. The polyhedral contraction...

Deuterium labelling is used to show that the disproportionation of thioxanthylium salts involve transfer of a hydride, (deuteride) ion from the9-positionof one molecule of the compound, as its hydro], to the 9 - position of another molecule in the cation form

In order to map the complex plasma footprint observed on lower divertor of WEST experiment after its first phase operation, we analysed deposits collected ITER-like Plasma Facing Units (PFUs) exposed in C3 (deuterium plasma) and C4 helium campaigns. Our results show that these have multilayer structures mainly composed tungsten, oxygen, boron carbon, whose texture composition vary along radial ...

Abstract A middle-sensitivity scintillating fiber detector (hereafter middle Sci-Fi detector) that works at a deuterium-tritium neutron flux of ~10 5 -10 7 cm −2 s −1 was utilized to measure secondary emission rates with high temporal resolution total rate 10 13 15 n/s, where strong magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) instabilities were observed in the large helical device deuterium plasma experiments. T...

The high interest of isotopically labelled compounds is induced by two important factors: (i) improvement highly sensitive and precise analytical methods for isotope identification (ii) development new synthetic approaches compounds. However, there still a lack efficient cheap the design deuterium liquid crystalline materials. Herein, continuous flow system was adapted synthesis deuterated Liqu...

Isotope effect may cause partial chromatographic separation of labeled (heavy) and unlabeled (light) isotopologue pairs. Together with a simultaneous matrix effect, this could lead to unacceptable accuracy in quantitative liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry assays, especially when electrospray ionization is used. Four biologically relevant reactive aldehydes (acrolein, malondialdehyde, 4-hy...

The understanding of physiological and molecular processes underlying the sense of smell has made considerable progress during the past three decades, revealing the cascade of molecular steps that lead to the activation of olfactory receptor (OR) neurons. However, the mode of primary interaction of odorant molecules with the OR proteins within the sensory cells is still enigmatic. Two different...
