RESUMEN
We have measured fully differential cross sections for photo double ionization of helium 450 eV above the threshold. We have found an extremely asymmetric energy sharing between the photoelectrons and an angular asymmetry parameter beta approximately 2 and beta approximately 0 for the fast and slow electrons, respectively. The electron angular distributions show a dominance of the shakeoff for 2 eV electrons and clear evidence of an inelastic electron-electron scattering at an electron energy of 30 eV. The data are in excellent agreement with convergent close-coupling calculations.
RESUMEN
We have measured the angular distributions of 1s photoelectrons excited by circularly and linearly polarized light from fixed-in-space CO and N2 molecules, in the vicinity of their shape resonances. A strong circular dichroism, i.e., a strong dependence on the sense of rotation of the polarization vector of the photons, is found for both molecules. State-of-the-art one-electron multiple scattering and partially correlated random phase approximation calculations are in good agreement with many, but not all, aspects of the experimental data.
RESUMEN
The direct electrophilic radiofluorination of m-tyrosine using [18F]acetylhypofluorite was investigated. Results showed that this reaction was both rapid and efficient with recovered decay corrected yield of 71% radiofluorinated m-tyrosines based on starting [18F]acetylhypofluorite. Specific activity of the product obtained in this study was 100-200 mCi/mmol although 1-5 Ci/mmol are easily achievable with our improved production of [18F]AcOF. Three positional isomers were found and identified by 19F-NMR to be 2-, 4-, 6-fluoro-m-tyrosine with a distribution of 36:11:52, respectively. This measured distribution allowed the assignment of the radio-HPLC peaks. Biological studies are currently underway in our laboratory using these fluoro-m-tyrosines to determine which isomer would be most suited for the evaluation of the dopamine system by positron tomography.
