We report preliminary results on the analysis of the three-body Υ( 10860) → B Bπ, Υ(10860) → [B B * + c.c.]π and Υ(10860) → B * B * π decays including an observation of the Υ(10860) → Z ± b (10610)π ∓ → [B B * + c.c.] ± π ∓ and Υ(10860) → Z ± b (10650)π ∓ → [B * B * ] ± π ∓ decays as intermediate channels. We measure branching fractions of the three-body decays to be B(Υ(10860) → [B B * + c.c.] ± π ∓ ) = (28.3 ± 2.9 ± 4.6) × 10 −3 and B(Υ(10860) → [B * B * ] ± π ∓ ) = (14.1 ± 1.9 ± 2.4) × 10 −3 and set 90% C.L. upper limit B(Υ(10860) → [B B] ± π ∓ ) < 4.0 × 10 −3 . We also report results on the amplitude analysis of the three-body Υ(10860) → Υ(nS)π + π − , n = 1, 2, 3 decays and the analysis of the internal structure of the three-body Υ(10860) → h b (mP )π + π − , m = 1, 2 decays. The results are based on a 121.4 fb −1 data sample collected with the Belle detector at a center-of-mass energy near the Υ(10860).
The present study was conducted to evaluate the relationship between maximum bite force and craniofacial morphology. Sixty-four Indonesian female dental students aged 19-27 years with normal occlusion served as the subjects. The Dental Prescale System was used to measure the maximum bite force using a pressure sensitive sheets while craniofacial morphology measurements were determined from conventional lateral radiograms. The antero-posterior and right-left position of the occlusal load centre (the OLC) were measured also. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was performed to evaluate the relationship between bite force and craniofacial morphology while correlation analysis was used to evaluate the antero-posterior position of the OLC related to craniofacial morphology. Fifty-five per cent of the bite force could be explained by variations in the posterior facial height, gonial angle, antero-posterior size of the maxilla, and posterior length of the cranial base. The result showed a larger bite force implies a greater posterior facial height, smaller gonial angle, larger maxilla and straighter posterior length of the cranial base. This study suggests that among Indonesians, maximum bite force could be explained by craniofacial morphology as found in Caucasians. In addition, we proposed a clinical standard of the OLC for the comprehensive evaluation of occlusion.
Reduction reactions of Cu(dmp)(2)(2+) (dmp = 2,9-dimethyl-1,10-phenanthroline) by ferrocene (Fe(Cp)(2) = bis(cyclopentadienyl)iron(II)), decamethylferrocene (Fe(PMCp)(2) = bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)iron(II)), and Co(bpy)(3)(2+) (bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) and oxidation reactions of Cu(dmp)(2)(+) by Ni(tacn)(2)(3+) (tacn = 1,4,7-triazacyclononane) and Mn(bpyO(2))(3)(3+) (bpyO(2) = N,N'-dioxo-2,2'-bipyridine) were studied in acetonitrile for the purpose of interpreting the gated behavior involving copper(II) and -(I) species. It was shown that the electron self-exchange rate constants estimated for the Cu(dmp)(2)(2+/+) couple from the oxidation reaction of Cu(dmp)(2)(+) by Ni(tacn)(2)(3+) (5.9 x 10(2) kg mol(-)(1) s(-)(1)) and Mn(bpyO(2))(3)(3+) (2.9 x 10(4) kg mol(-)(1) s(-)(1)) were consistent with the directly measured value by NMR (5 x 10(3) kg mol(-)(1) s(-)(1)). In contrast, we obtained the electron self-exchange rate constant of Cu(dmp)(2)(2+/+) as 1.6 kg mol(-)(1) s(-)(1) from the reduction of Cu(dmp)(2)(2+) by Co(bpy)(3)(2+). The pseudo-first-order rate constant for the reduction reaction of Cu(dmp)(2)(2+) by Fe(Cp)(2) was not linear against the concentration of excess amounts of Fe(Cp)(2). A detailed analysis of the reaction revealed that the reduction of Cu(dmp)(2)(2+) involved the slow path related to the deformation of Cu(dmp)(2)(2+) (path B in Scheme 1). By using Fe(PMCp)(2) (the E degrees value is 500 mV more negative than that of Fe(Cp)(2)(+/0)) as the reductant, the mixing with another pathway involving deformation of Cu(dmp)(2)(+) (path A in Scheme 1) became more evident. The origin of the "Gated Behavior" is discussed by means of the energy differences between the "normal" and deformed Cu(II) and Cu(I) species: the difference in the crystal field activation energies corresponding to the formation of pseudo-tetrahedral Cu(II) from tetragonally distorted Cu(II) and the difference in the stabilization energies of the tetrahedral and tetragonal Cu(I) for the activation of Cu(I) species. The reduction reaction of Cu(dmp)(2)(2+) by Fe(PMCp)(2) confirmed that the mixing of the two pathways takes place by lowering the energy level corresponding to the less favorable conformational change of Cu(I) species.
We show that choreographic three bodies {x(t), x(t + T /3), x(t − T /3)} of period T on the lemniscate, x(t) = (x +ŷcn(t))sn(t)/(1 + cn 2 (t)) parameterized by the Jacobi's elliptic functions sn and cn with modulus k 2 = (2 + √ 3)/4, conserve the center of mass and the angular momentum, wherex andŷ are the orthogonal unit vectors defining the plane of the motion. They also conserve the moment of inertia, the kinetic energy, the sum of square of the curvature, the product of distance and the sum of square of distance between bodies. We find that they satisfy the equation of motion under the potential energy i
