The chemical shifts of the 14N nucleus in a number of nitrogen–halogen–oxygen compounds have been estimated within the framework of the i.n.d.o.-l.c.a.o.-s.c.f. method using approximate perturbed Hartree–Fock theory. Generally good agreement with experiment is achieved. The calculations indicate that the variation in 14N chemical shift is due to either changes in orbital angular momentum, or to the presence of low lying excited states, or to a combination of both effects.

The fusion excitation function for the systems [Formula: see text]S+[Formula: see text]Zr is investigated using a microscopic internuclear potential derived from Skyrme energy density functional. The inputs in this approach are the proton and neutron density distributions of the interacting nuclei, which are derived from Skyrme–Hartree–Fock calculations. The SkM[Formula: see text] interaction is used in the calculation of the nuclear densities as well as the internuclear potential. The coupling to low lying inelastic excited states of target and projectile is considered. The role of the neutron transfer is discussed, where it is considered through the CCFULL model calculation. A good agreement with the experimental data is obtained without adjustable parameters.

We have studied the Cu -2p core level photoemission spectrum of a variety of cuprates, mainly focusing on the chemical shift and the shape of the leading peak. The spectra are calculated using the Anderson impurity model and we obtain a very good agreement with the experimental data. We find that the shape of the leading peak depends crucially on the structure of the Cu - O network. The main peak turns out to be quite narrow if the network consists of Cu - O - Cu bond angels of the order of 90°. On the other hand, if the Cu - O atoms are arranged with bond angles of approximately 180°, the main peak becomes substantially broader and contains a rather complicated structure. However, in some cases it is not sufficient only to consider the Cu - O network because interactions with other atoms are also important. In the model compounds Cu 2 O , CuO and NaCuO 2, where Cu is formally monovalent, divalent and trivalent, respectively, we find that the number of 3d electrons is rather similar. Nevertheless, the binding energy increases with the valence as expected from chemical intuition. The spectra exhibit a large variation in the strength of the d9-like satellite and in the width of the main line. We, furthermore, study the chemical shift of three inequivalent Cu atoms in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6.5, and compare the results with the model compounds, which suggests that the different Cu atoms in YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6.5 have formal valences of approximately one, two and three. These findings are analyzed and related to the formal valence.

The effects of long-range and virtual long-range coupling on the observed spectra of acetylated hexopyranoses and pentopyranoses are examined. Use is made of both spin decoupling and specific deuteration for the assignment of signals. It is seen that specific solvent effects on chemical shift can be superior to increasing the applied magnetic field for the resolution of the signals of closely related protons. The alteration of virtual long-range coupling effects in these ways can be useful in the diagnosis of spectra. Empirical rules are derived for estimating the long-range shielding effects which occur on changing configurations. It is seen that the inversion of a center can lead to deshielding of axial protons and to shielding of equatorial protons at other centers relative to the chemical shifts observed in reference compounds wherein all the acetoxy groups are in equatorial orientation. The effects in several cases result in equatorial protons giving their signal to higher field than chemically similar but axial protons. The conformational properties of pentopyranose tetraacetates as estimated from chemical shifts and coupling constants are seen to be in good agreement with expectations based on non-bonding interaction free energies. As expected, 2-deoxy-β-D-ribopyranose triacetate has the 1C-conformation when dissolved in chloroform.

Hartree–Fock wave functions for a number of S, P, and D states of the lithium isoelectronic sequence have been calculated, using a simplified procedure described in an earlier paper. Transition matrix elements for all permitted dipole transitions between these states have been computed using both the dipole length and the dipole velocity formulations. The results are in good agreement with earlier calculations.

Orbital wave functions for a number of singlet and triplet S, P, and D states of the helium sequence through C+4 have been calculated using an approximation described earlier. The wave functions have been employed to calculate the oscillator strengths for all allowed dipole transitions between these states, using both the length and velocity forms of the transition matrix element. Our results are in good agreement with the most accurate values available.

Post-translational modifications of proteins expand the diversity of the proteome by several orders of magnitude and have a profound effect on several biological processes. Their detection by experimental methods is not free of limitations such as the amount of sample needed or the use of destructive procedures to obtain the sample. Certainly, new approaches are needed and, therefore, we explore here, as a proof-of-concept, the feasibility of using 13C chemical shifts of different nuclei to detect methylation, acetylation and glycosylation of protein residues by monitoring the deviation of the 13C chemical shifts from the expected (mean) experimental value of the non-modified residue. As a validation test of this approach, we compare our theoretical computations of the 13Ce chemical-shift values against experimental data, obtained from NMR spectroscopy, for methylated and acetylated lysine residues with good agreement within ~1 ppm. Then, further use of this approach to select the most suitable 13C-nucleus, with which to determine other modifications commonly seen, such as methylation of arginine and glycosylation of serine, asparagine and threonine, shows encouraging results.

Conical beams have potential uses in wireless and satellite-based communication. In this study, we propose a method using a transmissive metasurface to achieve full control of the diverging effect of orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes to form the desired conical beam. A patch antenna functioning as the feed source is combined with the transmissive metasurface to enable the integration of the source and metasurface. For full control of conical radiation, including the cone angle and OAM mode, we introduce both radial and circumferential phase gradients to the proposed metasurface. Experiments are conducted in the microwave region to validate the design method, which shows good agreement with the simulation results. The proposed metasurface provides a means of flexibly generating conical beams with the designed OAM mode to assist potential applications in high-speed wireless communication.

The interactions of the La(III) cation with D-ribose and with D-arabinose in aqueous solution were investigated by 139La NMR spectroscopy. In the case of D-ribose, the formation of a La(III)-sugar complex was indicated by variations of the 139La chemical shift and linewidth with an increase of the sugar concentration in solution. In contrast, the complexation of La(III) by arabinose is very weak and almost undetectable by 139La NMR. On the basis of a 1:1 stoichiometry, the stability constant for the complex of La(III) with D-ribose was calculated from the observed 139La chemical shift values. A similar treatment was done for the viscosity corrected 139La linewidths using arabinose as an uninteractive reference. The stability constants, K, obtained independently from 139La chemical shifts and linewidths are in good agreement, 2.8 ± 0.5 and 2.2 ± 0.6 M−1 respectively at 299.0 ± 0.5 K. The thermodynamic parameters for the complexation of La(III) by D-ribose could also be obtained: ΔH0 = −12 ± 2 kJ mol−1, and ΔS0 = −31 ± 5 J K−1 mol−1. These values are in very good agreement with those obtained by calorimetric measurements.

We study the Regge-like spectra of light mesons in a relativized quark model. An analytical mass formula is presented for the light unflavored mesons with the help of auxiliary field method, by which a quasi-linear Regge–Chew–Frautschi plot is predicted for the orbitally excited states. We show that the trajectory slope is proportional to the inverse of the confining parameter [Formula: see text] when the orbital angular momentum [Formula: see text] is large. The result is tested against the experimental data of the spectra of the meson families [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in the [Formula: see text] planes, with the fitted parameters consistent with that in the literatures.
