We report on the discovery of the second accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar (AMXP) in the globular cluster NGC 6440. Pulsations with a frequency of 205.89 Hz were detected with RXTE on 2009 August 30, October 1 and October 28, during the decays of lsim4 day outbursts of a newly X-ray transient source in NGC 6440. By studying the Doppler shift of

The angular distributions of fission fragments for the S32+W184 reaction at center-of-mass energies of 118.8, 123.1, 127.3, 131.5, 135.8, 141.1, and 144.4 MeV are measured. The experimental fission excitation function is obtained. The anisotropy (Aexp) is found by extrapolating each fission fragment angular distribution. The measured fission cross

The angular distributions of fission fragments for the 32S+184W reaction at center-of-mass energies of 118.8, 123.1, 127.3, 131.5, 135.8, 141.1 and 144.4 MeV were measured. The fragment angular anisotropies are found by extrapolating the fission angular distributions. The measured fission cross sections are decomposed into fusion-fission

We present high-resolution spectroscopic measurements of the abundances of the α-like element titanium (Ti) and s-process elements yttrium (Y) and lanthanum (La) for M giant candidates of (a) the Sagittarius (Sgr) dwarf spheroidal + tidal tail system, (b) the Triangulum-Andromeda (TriAnd) Star Cloud, and (c) the Galactic Anticenter Stellar

A commercially available hydrogenated mixture of fullerenes (HMF) composed of 77% C60Hx and 22% C70Hx has been analyzed by liquid chromatographic analysis (HPLC), electronic absorption, FT-IR spectroscopy, solubility and by thermal analysis (TGA). The results confirm that the HMF is composed by a mixture of C60Hx and C70Hx with a high degree of
