Rotational spectrum of NSF3 in the ground and v5 = 1 vibrational states: observation of Q-branch perturbation-allowed transitions with delta(k - l) = 0, +/-3, +/-6 and anomalies in the rovibrational structure of the v5 = 1 state.

The rotational spectrum of NSF3 in the ground and v5 = 1 vibrational states has been investigated in the centimeter- and millimeter-wave ranges. R-branch (J + 1 <-- J) transitions for J = 0, 1 and Q-branch rotational transitions for the v5 = 1 vibrational state have been measured by waveguide Fourier transform microwave spectroscopy in the range 8-26.5 GHz.

Radiofrequency, Centimeter-Wave, Millimeter-Wave, and Infrared Spectra of SiHF(3): Investigation of the Ground, v(4) = 1, and v(6) = 1 Vibrational States.

The present paper deals with the analysis of the microwave, millimeter-wave, and infrared spectra of (28)SiHF(3) in its ground, v(6) = 1 and v(4) = 1 excited states. The former was observed up to 1055 GHz leading to the determination of one octic centrifugal distortion constant, L(J) = -0.0749(55) µHz.

Analysis of Rotational and Rovibrational Spectra of SiDF(3) in the Ground and v(4) = 1 Excited States.

This paper presents the analysis of the spectra of SiDF(3) in its vibrational ground and v(4) = 1 states. The pure rotational spectrum of the ground state was measured up to 903 GHz (J" = 65). Rotational, quartic, and sextic centrifugal distortion constants were accurately determined.

Radio-Frequency, Centimeter-Wave, Millimeter-Wave, and Infrared Spectra of SiDF(3) in the v(6) = 1 Excited State.

This paper deals with the first study of high-resolution radio-frequency, centimeter-wave, millimeter-wave, and infrared spectra of the deuterated isotopomer of trifluorosilane, SiDF(3), in its lowest degenerate excited v(6) = 1 state. Following the work of E. I.

Mid- and Near-Infrared Spectra, Millimeterwave Spectra, and Global Analysis of (16)O(12)C(80)Se.

We have recorded a total of 12 FTIR spectra of monoisotopic OC(80)Se in different spectral regions with a resolution (1/maximum optical path difference) between 2.7 and 13.2 x 10(-3) cm(-1).

[Somatosensory evoked potentials during spinal orthopedic surgery in adult patients].

Somatosensory evoked potentials (SEPs) were recorded in 165 patients from 185 operations for scoliosis and major spinal distortions, lumbar or cervical stenosis, post-traumatic malunions, or tumors. They were obtained by percutaneous stimulation of right and left median and tibial posterior nerves, and recorded on the scalp as recently, motor potentials (MPs) have also been obtained, by a trans-spinous stimulation rostral to the level of intervention. The protocol consists of pre- and post-operative recordings, as well as a continuous intra-operative monitoring.

Beta-endorphin immunoreactivity in the plasma of patients with the Prader-Labhart-Willi syndrome and their normal siblings.

No significant difference was found in the range or mean values of ir-beta-endorphin in the plasma of 6 patients with the Prader-Labhart-Willi syndrome compared to 7 of their normal siblings. The hypothesis that some of the symptoms of the P-L-W syndrome are due to excessive opioid activity is not supported by measurement of peripheral levels of ir-beta-endorphin.

Hypothalamic norepinephrine: circadian rhythms and the control of feeding behavior.

The time of day is a decisive determinant of the effects of l-norepinephrine on feeding behavior. During the dark, direct application of l-norepinephrine to the hypothalamus of rats suppressed feeding behavior. During the light, treatment with the same dose of l-norepinephrine facilitated feeding behavior.
