Abstract: The atomic nucleus and its electrons are often thought of as independent systems that are held together in the atom by their mutual attraction. Their interaction, however, leads to other important effects, such as providing an additional decay mode for excited nuclear states, whereby the nucleus releases energy by ejecting an atomic electron instead of by emitting a γ-ray. This 'internal conversion' has been known for about a hundred years and can be used to study nuclei and their interaction with their electrons. In the inverse process-nuclear excitation by electron capture (NEEC)-a free electron is captured into an atomic vacancy and can excite the nucleus to a higher-energy state, provided that the kinetic energy of the free electron plus the magnitude of its binding energy once captured matches the nuclear energy difference between the two states. NEEC was predicted in 1976 and has not hitherto been observed. Here we report evidence of NEEC in molybdenum-93 and determine the probability and cross-section for the process in a beam-based experimental scenario. Our results provide a standard for the assessment of theoretical models relevant to NEEC, which predict cross-sections that span many orders of magnitude. The greatest practical effect of the NEEC process may be on the survival of nuclei in stellar environments, in which it could excite isomers (that is, long-lived nuclear states) to shorter-lived states. Such excitations may reduce the abundance of the isotope after its production. This is an ex le of 'isomer depletion', which has been investigated previously through other reactions, but is used here to obtain evidence for NEEC.

Abstract: Across the physics disciplines, the 186 Pb nucleus is the only known system, where the two first excited states, together with the ground state, form a triplet of zero-spin states assigned with prolate, oblate and spherical shapes. Here we report on a precision measurement where the properties of collective transitions in 186 Pb were determined in a simultaneous in-beam γ -ray and electron spectroscopy experiment employing the recoil-decay tagging technique. The feeding of the $${0}_{2}^{+}$$ 0 2 + state and the interband $${2}_{2}^{+}\to {2}_{1}^{+}$$ 2 2 + → 2 1 + transition have been observed. We also present direct measurement of the energies of the electric monopole transitions from the excited 0 + states to the 0 + ground state. In contrast to the earlier understanding, the obtained reduced transition probability $$B(E2 {2}_{1}^{+}\to {0}_{2}^{+})$$ B ( E 2 2 1 + → 0 2 + ) value of 190(80) W.u., the transitional quadrupole moment $$| {Q}_{t}({2}_{1}^{+}\to {0}_{2}^{+})| =7.7$$ ∣ Q t ( 2 1 + → 0 2 + ) ∣ = 7.7 (33) eb and intensity balance arguments provide evidence to reassign the $${0}_{2}^{+}$$ 0 2 + and $${0}_{3}^{+}$$ 0 3 + states with predominantly prolate and oblate shape, respectively. Our work demonstrates a step-up in experimental sensitivity and paves the way for systematic studies of electric monopole transitions in this region. These electric monopole transitions probe the nuclear volume in a unique manner and provide unexploited input for development of the next-generation energy density functional models.

Abstract: Carbapenem-resistance in Klebsiella pneumoniae (KP) sequence type ST258 is mediated by carbapenemases (e.g. KPC-2) and loss or modification of the major non-selective porins OmpK35 and OmpK36. However, the mechanism underpinning OmpK36-mediated resistance and consequences of these changes on pathogenicity remain unknown. By solving the crystal structure of a clinical ST258 OmpK36 variant we provide direct structural evidence of pore constriction, mediated by a di-amino acid (Gly115-Asp116) insertion into loop 3, restricting diffusion of both nutrients (e.g. lactose) and Carbapenems. In the presence of KPC-2 this results in a 16-fold increase in MIC to Meropenem. Additionally, the Gly-Asp insertion impairs bacterial growth in lactose-containing medium and confers a significant in vivo fitness cost in a murine model of ventilator-associated pneumonia. Our data suggests that the continuous selective pressure imposed by widespread Carbapenem utilisation in hospital settings drives the expansion of KP expressing Gly-Asp insertion mutants, despite an associated fitness cost.

Abstract: Outer membrane porins in Gram-negative bacteria facilitate antibiotic influx. In Klebsiella pneumoniae , modifications in the porin OmpK36 are implicated in increasing resistance to carbapenems. An analysis of large K. pneumoniae genome collections, encompassing major healthcare-associated clones, revealed the recurrent emergence of a synonymous cytosine-to-thymine transition at position 25 (25c t) in ompK36. We show that the 25c t transition increases carbapenem resistance through depletion of OmpK36 from the outer membrane. The mutation attenuates K. pneumoniae in a murine pneumonia model, which accounts for its limited clonal expansion observed by phylogenetic analysis. However, in the context of carbapenem treatment, the 25c t transition tips the balance toward treatment failure, thus accounting for its recurrent emergence. Mechanistically, the 25c t transition mediates an intramolecular messenger RNA (mRNA) interaction between a uracil encoded by 25t and the first adenine within the Shine–Dalgarno sequence. This specific interaction leads to the formation of an RNA stem structure, which obscures the ribosomal binding site thus disrupting translation. While mutations reducing OmpK36 expression via transcriptional silencing are known, we uniquely demonstrate the repeated selection of a synonymous ompK36 mutation mediating translational suppression in response to antibiotic pressure.

Abstract: The nuclei 131 I and 133 I have been populated in multi-nucleon transfer reactions between 136 Xe ions and various targets, and their structure investigated by time-correlated γ-ray coincidence spectroscopy and the measurement of γ-ray angular correlations. A 19/2 - isomer at 1918 keV, with a half-life of 24(1) µs, has been identified in 131 I , as well as nanosecond isomers with J π = 23/2 + in both isotopes. A T 1/2 = 25(3) ns isomer at 4308 keV in 131 I is suggested to have J π = (31/2 - , 33/2 - ) and is primarily attributed to the coupling of an odd proton in the d 5/2 or g 7/2 orbit with the [Formula: see text] configuration in 130 Te , responsible for the 15 - isomer in that nucleus. The observed level properties are compared with predictions of a shell-model calculation.

Abstract: N-(3-hydroxy-7-cis-tetradecenoyl)-L-homoserine lactone (3OH, C14:1-HSL) is a quorum-sensing signalling molecule produced by Rhizobium leguminosarum. It is unusual in that it inhibits the growth of several strains of R. leguminosarum and was previously known as 'small bacteriocin'. The cinRI locus responsible for the production of 3OH,C14:1-HSL has been characterized it is predicted to be on the chromosome, based on DNA hybridization. The cinR and cinI genes are in different transcriptional units, separated by a predicted transcription terminator. CinR regulates cinI expression to a very high level in a cell-density dependent manner, and cinI expression is positively autoregulated by 3OH,C14:1-HSL, the only identified N-acyl homoserine lactone (AHL) produced by CinI. No other AHLs were identified that strongly induced cinI expression. Mutation of cinI or cinR abolishes the production of 3OH,C14:1-HSL and also reduces the production of several other AHLs. This is thought to result from the expression of three other AHL production loci being affected by the absence of 3OH,C14:1-HSL. AHLs produced by these other loci include N-hexanoyl- and N-octanoyl-L-homoserine lactones and, unexpectedly, N-heptanoyl-L-homoserine lactone (C7-HSL). The expression of the rhiI gene on the symbiotic plasmid is greatly reduced in a cinI mutant, and the major regulatory effect appears to be mediated at least in part as a result of an effect on expression of RhiR, the regulator of rhiI. Thus, cinR and cinI appear to be at the top of a regulatory cascade or network that influences several AHL-regulated quorum-sensing loci. The expression of cinI-lacZ fusions is significantly reduced (but not abolished) when the symbiosis plasmid pRL1JI is present, resulting in a reduction in the level of 3OH,C14:1-HSL produced. Mutation of cinI had little effect on growth or nodulation. However, plasmid transfer was affected, and the results obtained indicate that 3OH,C14:1-HSL produced by either the donor or the recipient in mating experiments can stimulate transfer of pRL1JI.

Abstract: This study was conducted to assess the five-year clinical performance of composite restorations using a self-etching primer adhesive system, Clearfil Liner Bond II. Restorations were rated using the following scale: A--Good B--Clinically acceptable C--Clinically unacceptable or D--Already replaced. The ratings were analyzed using Freedman's test (p=0.01) and Steel-Dwass test (p=0.05). A total of 83 restorations from 36 patients were identified from treatment records. Twenty-six restorations (31.3%) presented A rating and 36 restorations (43.4%) were clinically acceptable (B rating), while five (6.0%) received C rating and 16 (19.3%) had already been replaced (D rating). The mean survival rate of serviceable restorations (i.e., combined A and B ratings) after five years was 74.7%. It was found that cavity form, including cavity size, and occlusal contact seemed to influence longevity.

Abstract: Ultra-pure NaI(Tl) crystals are the key element for a model-independent verification of the long standing DAMA result and a powerful means to search for the annual modulation signature of dark matter interactions. The SABRE collaboration has been developing cutting-edge techniques for the reduction of intrinsic backgrounds over several years. In this paper we report the first characterization of a 3.4 kg crystal, named NaI-33, performed in an underground passive shielding setup at LNGS. NaI-33 has a record low $$^{39}$$ 39 K contamination of 4.3 ± 0.2 ppb as determined by mass spectrometry. We measured a light yield of 11.1 ± 0.2 photoelectrons/keV and an energy resolution of 13.2% (FWHM/E) at 59.5 keV. We evaluated the activities of $$^{226}$$ 226 Ra and $$^{228}$$ 228 Th inside the crystal to be $$5.9\\pm 0.6~\\upmu $$ 5.9 ± 0.6 μ Bq/kg and $$1.6\\pm 0.3~\\upmu $$ 1.6 ± 0.3 μ Bq/kg, respectively, which would indicate a contamination from $$^{238}$$ 238 U and $$^{232}$$ 232 Th at part-per-trillion level. We measured an activity of 0.51 ± 0.02 mBq/kg due to $$^{210}$$ 210 Pb out of equilibrium and a $$\\alpha $$ α quenching factor of 0.63 ± 0.01 at 5304 keV. We illustrate the analyses techniques developed to reject electronic noise in the lower part of the energy spectrum. A cut-based strategy and a multivariate approach indicated a rate, attributed to the intrinsic radioactivity of the crystal, of $$\\sim $$ ∼ 1 count/day/kg/keV in the [5–20] keV region.

Abstract: We have performed measurements of sodium nuclear recoils in NaI:Tl crystals, following scattering by neutrons produced in a 7 Li(p,n) 7 Be reaction. Understanding the light output from such recoils, which is reduced relative to electrons of equivalent energy by the quenching factor, is critical to interpret dark matter experiments that search for nuclear scattering interactions. We have developed a spectrum-fitting methodology to extract the quenching factor from our measurements, and report quenching factors for nuclear recoil energies between 36 and 401 keV. Our results agree with other recent quenching factor measurements that use quasi-monoenergetic neutron sources. The new method will be applied in the future to the NaI:Tl crystals used in the SABRE experiment.
