LOWER BOUNDS ON SELF-FOCUSING SO AS TO MAINTAIN RING INTEGRITY NEAR THE INITIATION OF ACCELERATION IN AN ELECTRON RING ACCELERATOR

DI-TERTIABYBUTYLNITROXIDE, A HILL REAGENT

Description: Di-tertiarybutylnitroxide (DTBN), which they have tried to use as a trapping agent to identify the species giving rise to the photo-induced EPR signals in photosynthetic materials, functions as a Hill reagent with spinach chloroplasts. Evidence is presented which indicates that the reduction of DTBN is affected by photosystem II of the electron transport system of spinach chloroplasts. The reduced form of DTBN, the hydroxylamine, undergoes a photo-oxidation with spinach chloroplasts. Possible e… more

Diffraction Radiation Defocusing of an Electron Ring

Description: The influence upon axial stability in an electron ring of the diffraction radiation reaction force, generated by a ring moving in an acceleration column, is calculated theoretically. A stability criterion is obtained, and numerical examples show that the criterion is not an important constraint upon the choice of parameters or the operation of an electron ring accelerator.

Quadrupole Moments of First Excited States in Si, S, and Ar

Description: Static quadrupole moments of the first excited states of {sup 28}Si, {sup 32}S, and {sup 40}Ar have been measured using the reorientation effect in projectile Coulomb excitation. The results obtained are Q({sup 28}Si,2{sup +}) = +0.11 {+-} 0.05 b, Q({sup 32}S,2{sup +}) = -0.20 {+-} 0.06 b, and Q({sup 40}Ar, 2{sup +}) = +0.01 {+-} 0.04 b.

The Electron-Ring Accelerator Program at Berkeley

Description: Early in 1968 a research group was set up at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory to investigate the exciting new concept of accelerating ions by means of relativistic electron rings, which had been introduced and developed by Veksler, Sarantsev, and other workers at Dubna. The initial work of our group was reported at the first USSR National Conference on Particle Accelerators in 1968. In this report the author review the subsequent progress and the present program.

ASYMMETRY IN n+ PHOTOPRODUCTION FROM A POLARIZED TARGET AT 5 AND16 GeV

Description: The authors have measured the asymmetry in the cross section for the reaction {gamma}p {yields} {pi}{sup +}n between the two stages of polarization of the initial proton normal to the plane of scattering. The initial laboratory photon energies, k, were 5 GeV and 16 GeV, and the regions of momentum transfer, t, covered were 0.14 {le} {radical}-t {le} 1.01 GeV/c and 0.14 {le} {radical}-t {le} 0.78 GeV/c respectively. A butanol polarized target was used with the SLAC 20 GeV/c magnetic spectrometer… more

The Equilibrium Length of High-Current Bunches in Electron Storage Rings

Description: An equilibrium theory of the length of intense electron bunches circulating in a storage ring is presented. The consequence of electrical interaction with various resonant structures is expressed in terms of quadratures over the impedance of the structures, and impedance functions for a variety of elements are evaluated. It is shown that elements having resonances at high frequency can, above transition, cause bunches to increase in length with increasing current. The parametric dependence of t… more

Experiments on Forming,Compressing and Extracting Electron Rings for the Collective Acceleration of Ions

Description: In experiments related to the development of the electron-ring accelerator, electrons were injected into a pulsed magnetic field to form rings that were then compressed radially to a small size. The injected beam had a current of about 150 A at an energy of 3.3 MeV with an energy spread of {+-} 0.1% and a pulse length duration of 20 nsec. At low intensity, an increase in the minor radius of the ring and a large loss of electrons was observed to occur during the compression cycle. At high intens… more

Diffraction Radiation by a Line Charge Moving Past a Comb: A Model of Radiation Losses in an Electron Ring Accelerator

Description: A calculation is given of the radiated energy loss from a charged rod which moves at constant speed past an infinite set of parallel semi-infinite conducting plates of infinitesimal thickness, with the rod taken parallel to and at a fixed distance from the plate edges. The problem is analyzed using the Wiener-Hopf technique, and the resulting formulas are evaluated analytically in the limits of high rod speed and low rod speed, and compared with numerical evaluation over the full range of speed… more

SYNCHROTRON RADIATION AND RING FORMATION IN THE ELECTRON RING ACCELERATOR

Description: We discuss the possibility of using synchrotron radiation to form electron rings having a very high electric field to hold the ions inside the ring. The formulas describing bow the energy and the dimension of the ring change under the effect of synchrotron radiation are derived, and a numerical example is given.

MECHANISM OF CARCINOGENESIS OF THE POLYCYCLIC AROMATICHYDROCARBONS

Description: The carcinogenic activity of the benzo[a]pyrene 1, the 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene 2 and the 3-methylcholanthrene 3 is suggested to be determine by the electrophilic attack of the active oxygen, induced by the hydroxylating enzyme systems, on the most reactive substituting carbon atom(s). The cationic intermediate(s) with the charge mainly localized on a complementary, interrelated position(s) of the hydroxyl substituted position(s) reacts further with the cellular nucleophiles. The electrop… more

A STUDY ON THE CHOICE OF PARAMETERS FOR A HIGH ENERGY ELECTRON RING ACCELERATOR

Description: The production of high energy (multi-GeV) proton beams by an electron ring accelerator is considered. Both the final energy and intensity of the proton beam depend on the choice of parameters for the electron ring. Possible sets of parameters, consistent with all the known requirements of ring stability, and which optimize the energy and (or) the intensity of the proton beam, are presented.

THE ACCELERATION OF PARTICLES BY COLLECTIVE FIELDS II

Description: The possibility of using the collective field of a large number of electrons to effect the acceleration of protons to high energies in a compact accelerator--or to permit acceleration of heavier ions in a manner not critically dependent on the charge-to-mass ratio of these ions--has been noted in an earlier Comment. A most attractive conceptual form for such an accelerator is the electron ring accelerator (ERA) and in the present Comment they direct attention to the basic phenomena--insofar as … more

Mechanism of Excretion of a Bacterial Proteinase: Demonstration of Two Proteolytic Enzymes Produced by a Sarcina Strain (Coccus P)

Description: A Sarcina strain (Coccus P) produces two proteolytic enzymes. One is found only extracellularly, is far more prevalent, and is actively excreted during exponential growth. It is the enzyme responsible for the known strong proteolytic activity of the cultures of this strain. A second protease is, however, produced which remains associated with the intact cells but is released by the protoplasts. The two enzymes appear unrelated in their derivation. Calcium ions play an essential role in preventi… more

Mechanism of Excretion of a Bacterial Proteinase: Factors Controlling Accumulation of the Extracellular Proteinase of a Sarcina Strain (Coccus P)

Description: It has been known that the extracellular proteinase of Coccus P is found only in cultures grown in the presence of Ca{sup 2+}. It is now shown that this cation is required neither for synthesis, excretion, or activation of a zymogen nor as a prosthetic factor necessary for enzymatic activity. The only function of Ca{sup 2+} is to stabilize the active structure of the enzyme molecule, presumably by substituting for absence of S-S bridges. In the absence of Ca{sup 2+} , the excreted proteinase un… more
