A sharp look at the gravitationally lensed quasar SDSS J0806+2006 with laser guide star adaptive optics at the VLT

Frédéric Courbin, Georges Meylan, Alexander Patrick Eigenbrod

We present the first VLT near-IR observations of a gravitationally lensed quasar, using adaptive optics and laser guide star. These observations can be considered as a test bench for future systematic observations of lensed quasars with adaptive optics, ev ...

Ligand exchange and complex formation kinetics studied by NMR exemplified on fac-[(CO)3M(H2O)]+ (M = Mn, Tc, Re)

Lothar Helm

In this review ligand exchange and complex formation reactions on fac-[(CO)3M(H2O)3]+ (M = Mn, Tc, Re) and on fac-[(CO)2(NO)Re(H2O)3]2+ are presented. A variety of experimental NMR techniques are described and it is shown that sometimes combinations of tec ...

Optimization of reaction calorimetry with supercritical fluids: A complete term-by-term analysis of the heat flow equation

Thierry Meyer, Charalampos Mantelis

A complete anal. of the heat flow equation in reaction calorimetry with supercrit. fluids is presented. An esp. developed reaction calorimeter is employed to study the challenges introduced by the supercrit. state of the reaction mixt. and the particularit ...

Interfering residues narrow the spectrum of MLV restriction by human TRIM5alpha

Didier Trono, Priscilla Turelli, Séverine Reynard, Pierre Maillard

TRIM5alpha is a restriction factor that limits infection of human cells by so-called N- but not B- or NB-tropic strains of murine leukemia virus (MLV). Here, we performed a mutation-based functional analysis of TRIM5alpha-mediated MLV restriction. Our resu ...

Relationship between testate amoebae and atmospheric heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Zn, Ni, Cu, Mn and Fe) accumulated in the moss Barbula indica Hanoi, Vietnam

Edward Mitchell

We studied the relationships between testate amoeba communities and heavy metal (Pb, Cd, Zn, Ni, Cu, Mn, and Fe) concentrations in the moss Barbula indica sampled at 29 sites in and around the city of Hanoi (Vietnam). Our first approach was to compare the ...

Likelihood estimation of the extremal index

Mária Süveges

The article develops the approach of Ferro and Segers (2003) to the estimation of the extremal index, and proposes the use of a new variable decreasing the bias of the likelihood based on the point process character of the exceedances. Two estimators are d ...

Design of Gd(III)-Based Magnetic Resonance Imaging Contrast Agents: Static and Transient Zero-Field Splitting Contributions to the Electronic Relaxation and Their Impact on Relaxivity

André Merbach, Lothar Helm, Alain Borel, Loïck Moriggi

A multiple-frequency (9.4-325 GHz) and variable-temperature (276-320 K) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) study on low molecular weight gadolinium(III) complexes for potential use as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agents has been performed. ...

Numerical Simulation of a Class of PDAEs with a Separation of Time Scales

Benoît Chachuat

Modeling and simulation of dynamic systems with a separation of time-scales leads naturally to sing ular perturbation models. For systems of PDEs in time and one spatial dimension, the corresponding quasi-steady-state models yields a reduced set of PDEs (s ...

Enhancement of the efficiency of non-viral gene delivery by application of pulsed magnetic field

Heinrich Hofmann, Alke Fink, Benedikt Steitz

New approaches to increase the efficiency of non-viral gene delivery are still required. Here we report a simple approach that enhances gene delivery using permanent and pulsating magnetic fields. DNA plasmids and novel DNA fragments (PCR products) contain ...
