The results of diabatic hyperspherical close-coupling calculations are presented for the charge exchange of a negative muon from muonic hydrogen to oxygen and nitrogen for collision energies from 10−3 to 103 eV. It is shown that converged results can be obtained using a much smaller number of channels than in the traditional adiabatic approach. For the energy range below 10 eV our results for n...

The atomic coordinates of yeast phenylalanine transfer RNA (tRNA) as well as the torsion angles of the polynucleotide chain are presented as derived from an x-ray diffraction analysis of orthorhombic crystals. A comparison is made between the coordinates obtained from analysis of monoclinic crystals of the same material. It is concluded that the molecule has substantially the same form in the o...

Comment on " Nature of Quantum Localization in Atomic Momentum Transfer Experiments " In a recent Letter, Latka and West [1] claim that quantum suppression of atomic momentum transfer seen in recent experiments [2] is not due to dynamical localization (DL). We contend that their arguments proceed from a misunderstanding of both DL as well as aspects of the experiment. This is compounded by erro...

The ligands at the surface of a gold nanoparticle (GNP) have significant influence on optical and physical properties, that may render different functionalities to GNP. Therefore, there is need in understanding nature interaction atomic resolution order allow rational design GNPs with desired physico-chemical properties. between Au $$_{79}$$ series small organic molecules has been systematicall...
