    Notes: Abstract Strong solid state effects in low energy scattering of pµ atoms in solid hydrogen are reported and analyzed. Such effects have been observed in TRIUMF experiment E742 where muons are stopped in thin frozen (3 K) layers of hydrogen. Emission of low energy pµ atoms from the hydrogen layer into adjacent vacuum was much higher than expected, based on calculations which ignored the solid nature of hydrogen. Monte Carlo simulations, performed using the scattering cross-sections with solid state effects taken into account, show the important role of the coherent elastic Bragg scattering in the diffusion of pµ atoms. For pµ energies lower than the Bragg cut-off limit (∼2 meV) the total scattering cross-section falls by several orders of magnitude, the hydrogen target becomes transparent and the emission of cold pµ atoms takes place.

    Notes: Abstract Our measurement compares the energy dependence of the scattering cross-sections of muonic deuterium and tritium on hydrogen molecules for collisions in the energy range 0.1–45 eV. A time-of-flight method was used to measure the scattering cross-section as a function of the muonic atom beam energy and shows clearly the Ramsauer–Townsend effect. The results are compared with theoretical calculations by using Monte Carlo simulations. The molecular pdµ and ptµ formation creates background processes. We measure the formation rates in solid hydrogen by detecting the 5.5 MeV (pdµ) and 19.8 MeV (ptµ) γ-rays emitted during the subsequent nuclear fusion processes.

    Description: Patients with abetalipoproteinemia, a disease caused by defects in the microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP), do not produce apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. It was hypothesized that small molecule inhibitors of MTP would prevent the assembly and secretion of these atherogenic lipoproteins. To test this hypothesis, two compounds identified in a high-throughput screen for MTP inhibitors were used to direct the synthesis of a highly potent MTP inhibitor. This molecule (compound 9) inhibited the production of lipoprotein particles in rodent models and normalized plasma lipoprotein levels in Watanabe-heritable hyperlipidemic (WHHL) rabbits, which are a model for human homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia. These results suggest that compound 9, or derivatives thereof, has potential applications for the therapeutic lowering of atherogenic lipoprotein levels in humans.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Wetterau, J R -- Gregg, R E -- Harrity, T W -- Arbeeny, C -- Cap, M -- Connolly, F -- Chu, C H -- George, R J -- Gordon, D A -- Jamil, H -- Jolibois, K G -- Kunselman, L K -- Lan, S J -- Maccagnan, T J -- Ricci, B -- Yan, M -- Young, D -- Chen, Y -- Fryszman, O M -- Logan, J V -- Musial, C L -- Poss, M A -- Robl, J A -- Simpkins, L M -- Slusarchyk, W A -- Sulsky, R -- Taunk, P -- Magnin, D R -- Tino, J A -- Lawrence, R M -- Dickson, J K Jr -- Biller, S A -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1998 Oct 23;282(5389):751-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Metabolic Diseases, Bristol-Myers Squibb Pharmaceutical Research Institute, Princeton, NJ 08543-4000, USA.
