Article Abstract
Quantum beat spectroscopy is combined with triple-resonance vibrational overtone excitation to measure the Stark coefficients (SCs) of the water molecule for 28 rovibrational levels lying from 27,600 to 41,000 cm(-1). These data provide a stringent test for assessing the accuracy of the available potential energy surfaces (PESs) and dipole moment surfaces (DMSs) of this benchmark molecule in this energy region, which is inaccessible by direct absorption. SCs, calculated using the combination of a high accuracy, spectroscopically determined PES and a recent ab initio DMS, are within the 1% accuracy of available experimental data for levels below 25,000 cm(-1), and within 4.5% for coefficients associated with levels up to 35,000 cm(-1). However, the error in the computed coefficients is over 60% for the very high rovibrational states lying just below the lowest dissociation threshold, due, it seems, to lack of a high accuracy PES in this region. The comparative analysis suggests further steps, which may bring the theoretical predictions closer to the experimental accuracy.

Investigation of the Gas-Phase N + CHCN Reaction at Low Temperatures.

Rate coefficients for ion-polar-molecule reactions between acetonitrile molecules (CHCN) and nitrogen molecular ions (N), which are of importance to the upper atmospheric chemistry of Saturn's moon Titan, were measured for the first time at low translational temperatures. In the experiments, the reaction between sympathetically cooled N ions embedded in laser-cooled Ca Coulomb crystals and velocity-selected acetonitrile molecules generated using a wavy Stark velocity filter was studied to determine the reaction rate coefficients. Capture rate coefficients calculated by the Su-Chesnavich approach and by the perturbed rotational state theory considering the rotational state distribution of CHCN were compared to the experimental rate coefficients.

Background: To intraindividually compare the diagnostic performance of positron emission computed tomography (F-18-FDG-PET/CT) and diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) in a non-inferiority design for the discrimination of peripheral nerve sheath tumours as benign (BPNST), atypical (ANF), or malignant (MPNST) in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1).
Results: In this prospective single-centre study, thirty-four NF1 patients (18 male; 30 ± 11 years) underwent F-18-FDG-PET/CT and multi-b-value DW-MRI (11 b-values 0 - 800 s/mm²) at 3T. Sixty-six lesions corresponding to 39 BPNST, 11 ANF, and 16 MPNST were evaluated.

Background And Purpose: There are multiple MRI perfusion techniques, with limited available literature comparing these techniques in the grading of pediatric brain tumors. For efficiency and limiting scan time, ideally only one MRI perfusion technique can be used in initial imaging. We compared DSC, DCE, and IVIM along with ADC from DWI for differentiating high versus low grade pediatric brain tumors.

Article Synopsis
- * We observe a blue Stark shift in energy levels for formal topological states, while the interface states exhibit an oscillatory Stark shift around the Fermi level.
- * Our findings highlight the impact of the Stark effect on transmission coefficients and suggest that electric fields can control coupling strength in topological interface states, offering insights for future electronic devices and quantum technologies.

Materials possessing both ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism are regarded as ideal candidates for electronic devices, such as nonvolatile memories. Based on first-principles calculations, we systematically studied the crystal structure, electronic structure as well as magnetic, piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of a two-dimensional van der Waals WOF monolayer material. The WOF monolayer was found to possess a robust square crystal structure, exhibiting exceptional stability and mechanical resilience.
