ABSTRACT
The cascading 3.21 and 4.44 MeV electric quadrupole transitions have been observed from the Hoyle state at 7.65 MeV excitation energy in ^{12}C, excited by the ^{12}C(p,p^{'}) reaction at 10.7 MeV proton energy. From the proton-γ-γ triple coincidence data, a value of Γ_{rad}/Γ=6.2(6)×10^{-4} was obtained for the radiative branching ratio. Using our results, together with Γ_{π}^{E0}/Γ from Eriksen et al. [Phys. Rev. C 102, 024320 (2020)PRVCAN2469-998510.1103/PhysRevC.102.024320] and the currently adopted Γ_{π}(E0) values, the radiative width of the Hoyle state is determined as Γ_{rad}=5.1(6)×10^{-3} eV. This value is about 34% higher than the currently adopted value and will impact models of stellar evolution and nucleosynthesis.
ABSTRACT
Aimed at optimization of herpes viral infections diagnosis, 186 babies who had momo-or mixed herpes viral infections were examined. Their blood, liquor, urine, saliva and materials that were scrapped off in the damaged focus (skin, mucous membrane of the mouth) were studied by methods of IFA, RIF,PCR. Clinical and immunologic parallels were studied. Levels of TNF-α, IL-4 and IFN-α in blood serum and in liquor were assessed. Generalized form of mixed infection was characterized by low contents of TNF-α, IL-4 and IFN-α in blood serum and higher of TNF-α in the liquor which in the setting of increased antigen load pointed to the disruption of mechanisms of adaptation and compensation and bad prognosis.
