Determination of the pion charge form factor at Q2=1.60 and 2.45 (GeV/c)2.

The 1H(e,e'pi+)n cross section was measured at four-momentum transfers of Q2=1.60 and 2.45 GeV2 at an invariant mass of the photon nucleon system of W=2.22 GeV. The charged pion form factor (F(pi)) was extracted from the data by comparing the separated longitudinal pion electroproduction cross section to a Regge model prediction in which F(pi) is a free parameter. The results indicate that the pion form factor deviates from the charge-radius constrained monopole form at these values of Q2 by one sigma, but is still far from its perturbative quantum chromodynamics prediction.

Precision Rosenbluth measurement of the proton elastic form factors.

We report the results of a new Rosenbluth measurement of the proton electromagnetic form factors at Q2 values of 2.64, 3.20, and 4.10 GeV2. Cross sections were determined by detecting the recoiling proton, in contrast to previous measurements which detected the scattered electron. Cross sections were determined to 3%, with relative uncertainties below 1%. The ratio mu(p)G(E)/G(M) was determined to 4%-8% and showed mu(p)G(E)/G(M) approximately 1. These results are consistent with, and much more precise than, previous Rosenbluth extractions. They are inconsistent with recent polarization transfer measurements of similar precision, implying a systematic difference between the techniques.

Angular distributions for (3,4)(Lambda)H bound states in the (3,4)He(e,e(')K+) reaction.

The (3,4)(Lambda)H and (4)(Lambda)H hypernuclear bound states have been observed for the first time in kaon electroproduction on (3,4)He targets. The production cross sections have been determined at Q(2)=0.35 GeV2 and W=1.91 GeV. For either hypernucleus the nuclear form factor is determined by comparing the angular distribution of the (3,4)He(e,e(')K+)(3,4)(Lambda)H processes to the elementary cross section 1H(e,e K+)Lambda on the free proton, measured during the same experiment.

Measurement of the electric form factor of the neutron at Q2=0.5 and 1.0 GeV2/c2.

The electric form factor of the neutron was determined from measurements of the d-->(e-->,e'n)p reaction for quasielastic kinematics. Polarized electrons were scattered off a polarized deuterated ammonia (15ND3) target in which the deuteron polarization was perpendicular to the momentum transfer. The scattered electrons were detected in a magnetic spectrometer in coincidence with neutrons in a large solid angle detector. We find G(n)(E)=0.0526+/-0.0033(stat)+/-0.0026(sys) and 0.0454+/-0.0054+/-0.0037 at Q(2)=0.5 and 1.0 (GeV/c)(2), respectively.

Measurements of GnE/GnM from the 2H(e-->,en-->)1H Reaction to Q2=1.45 (GeV/c)2.

We report new measurements of the ratio of the electric form factor to the magnetic form factor of the neutron, G(n)(E)/G(n)(M), obtained via recoil polarimetry from the quasielastic 2H(e-->,e(')n-->)1H reaction at Q2 values of 0.45, 1.13, and 1.45 (GeV/c)(2) with relative statistical uncertainties of 7.6% and 8.4% at the two higher Q2 points, which points have never been achieved in polarization measurements.

High resolution spectroscopy of the 12Lambda B hypernucleus produced by the (e,e'K+) reaction.

High-energy, cw electron beams at new accelerator facilities allow electromagnetic production and precision study of hypernuclear structure, and we report here on the first experiment demonstrating the potential of the (e,e'K+) reaction for hypernuclear spectroscopy. This experiment is also the first to take advantage of the enhanced virtual photon flux available when electrons are scattered at approximately zero degrees. The observed energy resolution was found to be approximately 900 keV for the (12)(Lambda)B spectrum, and is substantially better than any previous hypernuclear experiment using magnetic spectrometers. The positions of the major excitations are found to be in agreement with a theoretical prediction and with a previous binding energy measurement, but additional structure is also observed in the core excited region, underlining the future promise of this technique.

Longitudinal electroproduction of charged pions from (1)H, (2)H, and (3)He.

Separated longitudinal and transverse cross sections for charged pion electroproduction from (1)H, (2)H, and (3)He were measured at Q(2) = 0.4 (GeV/c)(2) for two values of the invariant mass, W = 1.15 GeV and W = 1.60 GeV, in a search for a mass dependence which would signal the effect of nuclear pions. This is the first such study that includes recoil momenta significantly above the Fermi surface. The longitudinal cross section, if dominated by the pion-pole process, should be sensitive to nuclear pion currents. Comparisons of the longitudinal cross section target ratios to a quasifree calculation reveal a significant suppression in (3)He at W = 1.60 GeV. The W = 1.15 GeV results are consistent with simple estimates of the effect of nuclear pion currents, but are also consistent with pure quasifree production.

Measurement of the high energy two-body deuteron photodisintegration differential cross section.

The first measurements of the d(gamma,p)n differential cross section at forward angles and photon energies above 4 GeV were performed at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab). The results indicate evidence of an angular dependent scaling threshold. Results at straight theta(cm) = 37 degrees are consistent with the constituent counting rules for E(gamma) greater, similar 4 GeV, while those at 70 degrees are consistent with the constituent counting rules for E(gamma) greater, similar 1.5 GeV.

Measurement of the charged pion electromagnetic form factor.

Separated longitudinal and transverse structure functions for the reaction 1H(e,e(')pi(+))n were measured in the momentum transfer region Q2 = 0.6--1.6 (GeV/c)(2) at a value of the invariant mass W = 1.95 GeV. New values for the pion charge form factor were extracted from the longitudinal cross section by using a recently developed Regge model. The results indicate that the pion form factor in this region is larger than previously assumed and is consistent with a monopole parametrization fitted to very low Q2 elastic data.

Sequence analysis and population data on the 'new' short tandem repeat locus D5S2360.

We have studied the sequence structure and population genetics of a 'new' short tandem repeat polymorphism at locus D5S2360 in German Caucasians. Sequencing at this locus revealed a considerable variation, which is characterized by a tetranucleotide (AGAT)(n) repeat pattern with (GAT), (AGATT), and (AG) repeats dispersed throughout the alleles. These microvariations do not necessarily alter the size of the alleles. They may vary by one or two pairs or they may remain unchanged in size. At locus D5S2360 we observed 33 allelic lengths comprising at least 36 different alleles. Population data revealed a high polymorphism with a heterozygosity rate of approximately 92.5%.

Electronic structure of [(CpCr)[(CO)3M]]mu-Cot (M = Cr, Fe): a theoretical study.

The electronic structure of two cyclooctatetraene-bridged dinuclear first-row transition metal complexes of the type [(CpM)[(CO)3M']]mu-Cot (M = Cr; M' = Fe (1), Cr (2)) was investigated by complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) calculations. In this context the differences in the binding capabilities of the complex fragments CpM and (CO)3M are discussed on the basis of extended Huckel molecular orbital (MO) calculations. The geometries used for the CASSCF calculations for complex 1 were obtained from the crystal structure. For 2 a model structure was established by geometry optimization using density functional methods. The CASSCF results agree well with the experimental findings and provide insight into the binding situation of the two compounds. Complex 1 can be regarded as being composed of a chromocene-like subunit CpCr(eta5-C5H5) and the fragment (CO)3Fe(eta3-C3H3). A direct metal-metal bond is found, involving one initially singly occupied orbital of each fragment, leading to a doublet ground state for 1 with the remaining unpaired electron localized at the chromium center. For 2 no such direct metal-metal bond can be recognized. A very weak direct metal-metal interaction is induced by electron donation from the Cot2- ligand into a formally unoccupied metal-metal binding orbital combination. In the quartet ground state all three unpaired electrons are localized at the chromium center of the formally doubly positive charged CpCr unit, on which complex fragment [(CO)3Cr(eta5-Cot)]2- acts like a cyclopentadienyl ligand. The coordination sphere of the chromium center of the CpCr unit resembles that of a metallocene metal center and its metal 3d occupation scheme corresponds to that of vanadocene.

Pediatric febrile seizures and childhood headaches in primary care.

Febrile seizures and migraine headaches in children are two of the most common neurological diagnoses seen by primary care practitioners. It is essential that a knowledge base be developed to better care for this population. This article reviews pediatric febrile seizures, including management and treatment recommendations and childhood headaches, with an emphasis on migraine headaches. Diagnosis, management, and referral criteria are also reviewed.

Comparison of German population data on the apoB-HVR locus with other Caucasian, Asian and black populations.

A population study of 505 unrelated individuals from Southwestern Germany was carried out on the 3'-apoB hypervariable region (HVR). After amplification via polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and agarose gel electrophoresis, 15 different alleles and 47 genotypes were observed. The most common alleles were hypervariable elements (HVE) 37 and 35 with an allele frequency of 0.374 and 0.244, respectively. The heterozygosity index was calculated to be 78.4%. Allele frequencies of this study are compared with results from other databases obtained from a French, a Spanish, an Asian and an American (Black) population.
