However, a growing body of evidence suggests that the appendix, far from being a "vestigial organ", hag a significant function as a part of the body' s immune system. The appendix achieves its greatest development shortly after birth, when immune response is first developing, then regresses with age, when the immune response mediated by the appendix may relate to such inflammatory conditions as ulcerative colitis, which in adults necessitates the organ' s surgical removal. 图片第8题Which of the following hypothetical discoveries, if made, would cast MOST doubt on the most recent conclusions regarding the function of the human appendix?A.After laboratory experiments, scientists discover evidence to reject the notion hat the human appendix is a "vestigial" organ.B.Certain animal species which had not previously been given attention are to possess an appendix resembling that of humans.C.Lymphoid tissue is discovered, after careful study, not to play a role in the recognition of foreign antigens in ingested material.D.After re-examination of the evidence, ulcerative colitis is discovered to be caused by factors wholly unrelated to the human appendix.E.It is discovered that in rabbits, hindgut fermentation does not require the presence of an organ acting as reservoir for bacteria.第9题Which of the following best describes the relationship of the second paragraph to the first?A.The second paragraph relies on different evidence in drawing a conclusion similar to that expressed in the first paragraph.B.The second paragraph provides further elaboration on why an assertion made at the end of the first paragraph proves true in most cases.C.The second paragraph provides additional information in support of a hypothesis stated in the first paragraph.D.The second paragraph provides an example of a case in which the assumption described in the first paragraph is unwarranted.E.The second paragraph describes a phenomenon that has the same cause as the phenomenon described in the first paragraph.第10题It can be inferred from the passage that the author of the passage would be most likely to agree with which of the following assertions about the appendix?A.Scientists have ruled out the possibility that the appendix is involved in hindgut fermentation in all species, including rabbits.B.As an organ, the appendix is more useful to the immune response of human beings in their first development than later in life.C.The human appendix contains greater amounts of lymphoid tissue than the aggregates of which that are found in other areas of the gastrointestinal tract.D.The appendix in a human child is generally less well developed than the appendix in a human adult.E.The presence of the appendix in humans suggests that the human digestive process resembles the rabbit digestive process more than that of other animal species.第11题The passage provides information in support of which of the following assertions?A.Lymphoid tissue somehow involved in the body''s ability to recognize foreignantigens in ingested material is a primary cause of ulcerative colitis.B.The appendix is an anomaly among mammals, existing in rabbits and humans largely as an evolutionary fluke.C.Microscopic research is insufficient to give even the vaguest suggestion of what the human appendix''s function may be.D.The digestive process in human beings is less dependent on the hindgut fermentation process than is the digestive process in rabbits.E.Lymphoid tissue that recognize foreign antigens is absent in the digestive systems of animals that lack appendixes.上一题下一题(12/31)选择图片第12题RECLUSE: PRIVACY : :A.puritan: toleranceB.stickler: adherenceC.stoic: solemnityD.utopian: conceitE.philanthropist:

Target

Target

TargetA thin target scheme for the Muon sourceAlain Blondel a,Jean Paul Fabre b,Simone Gilardoni c,Nikolaos Vassilopoulos ba LPNHE,Ecole Polytechnique,91128Palaiseau Cedex,Franceb Cern,1211,Geneva23,Switzerlandc INFN Milano and Politecnico di Milano,Milano,ItalyThe purpose of this paper is to perform a preliminary analysis of a thin target and recirculator scheme for the pion source of a muon machine such as a Neutrino Factory.A sketch of this is shown in Figure1.This is similar to studies performed for antiproton sources(1).Protons incoming from the source(i.e.a linac or a synchrotron)interact with a thin target and produce pions.Most protons do not interact and are capturedFig.1.Schema for the recirculating scenarioPreprint submitted to Elsevier Preprint4November1999in a recirculator which sends them back onto the target for several turns. There is no need for a dump,since all the protons produced by the injector are eventually absorbed in the target.The target can thus be thin(at limit point-like)and composed of low-Z materials which have the advantage of not producing heavy radioactive nuclei.This scheme could also be considered with an H?linac,the target acting in this case as a strip foil.This scheme leads to a number of questions:i)will multiple scattering in the target increase the emittance so much that cooling of the protons should be necessary?ii)the energy deposited in the target is very localised and could become unbearable;iii)the accumulated current in the recirculator might be too high,iv)with the protons recirculating,the time structure of the pion beam acquires a structure at about one microsecond.Although these implica-tions will not?nd here an answer in the context of a consistent scenario of a Neutrino Factory,they are addressed in turn.1Multiple scatteringThe proton beam is spread by multiple scattering according to a characteristic angleθ0:13.6(GeV)xθ0=εin/βwhereεis the emittance of the beam andβthe optical focusing function at the target.After one passage in the target the proton beam has a total angular spread which is the quadratic sum of these two contributions.εinσ2θ,out=,where x is the thickness ofX I2the target,and X I is the interaction length for the given material.A typical proton will thus pass through the target X Ix.A similar result is obtained if one?lls the recirculator continuously.Let us now assume that the recirculation time is matched to the timing of the proton injector,as would be the case if the target also acted as an H?strip foil.At every turn a number n0of protons is added to the bunch,with an emittance equal toεin.The remaining fraction(1?a)of the proton beam is assumed to be recovered by the recirculation system.After in?nite number of passages, the total angular divergence of the beam tends to:εequil.=n0∞εin p kn0∞p k(4)where n0p k is the number of particles remaining after k turns,with p k= (1?a)k.With little algebra equation4becomesεequil.=εin+βθ201?aX0(6) whereα20=13.6Mat X I(g/cm2)X0(g/cm2)X IH2O8536 2.361P b(≈Hg)194 6.430.30.08The best is clearly to chose a material with a short interaction length(X I) and a long radiation length(X0).The target thickness could then as long as a few centimetres and remain shorter thanβcrit.2Energy lossAnother constraint for the target choice is given by the energy deposition in the target which is,as a?rst approximation,due to ionization and can be computed using dEdx .The recirculator must thereforebe equipped with a modest amount of re-accelerating devices(typically a few MeV).Since the average total path that every proton eventually undergoes in the tar-get is one interaction length,the total energy loss is given by P loss=dE Mat.dEH2O1698.5%Pb21711%3IntensitySince each proton will remain on average in the recirculator for X Iρ(g/cm3)X I(cm)I equil.=I0·X I/βcrit(A)D20.173250.58Be 1.8540.50.19Here beryllium which o?ers high density and low Z at the same time is the clear winner of the materials considered.4Particle CaptureIt could be an advantage to handle a point-like source.In particular a point-like source can be placed exactly in the focal point of an optical capture device such as a magnetic horn.A study in progress(3)to simulate a horn for the Neutrino Factory taking experience from the NGS studies(4)has already reached a performance similar to that obtained with a solenoid capture can be envisaged.5Time StructureThe favoured operation mode for the Neutrino Factory that emerged from NUFACT99in Lyon would be pulsed operation with a repetition rate of10-50Hz.Pulsed devices being operational for several hundredth of microseconds, and the recirculation time being of less or equal to a microsecond(recirculator ring of less than300meters circumference),there is plenty of time for the protons to recirculate from one or several initial bunches of protons injected in the system.If one starts from one bunch or train of bunches of protons, the recirculator generates then a succession of bunches(or trains)with a time structure equal to the recirculation time and with exponentially decreasing intensity I k=I initial e?k.x/X I.5Provided that the muon storage ring does not have a length that coincides with the recirculating time,it should be possible to store the successive muon bunches in the muon decay ring,provided an RF injection scheme is consid-ered.This recirculator scheme could therefore be acceptable and o?er some advantages for the Neutrino Factory.For Muon Colliders,evidently,the dilu-tion of intensity over so many bunches would result in unacceptable loss of luminosity.6ConclusionsThe possibility of recirculating the protons in a storage ring coupled with a thin target had been investigated.A thin target composed by low-Z material like D2,H2O or Be seems the best choice.The advantages of having a capture system like a magnetic horn,in particular for a thin target scheme,are still under investigation.The timing of the system seems at?rst look acceptable for a Neutrino Factory,but not for a Muon Collider.References[1]N.Mokhov and A.Van Ginneken,Increasing anti-proton yields via re-circulating beam targeting,FERMILAB-FN-621(1994).[2]Particle

A review of the species of protozoan epibionts on crustaceans-11

A review of the species of protozoan epibionts on crustaceans-11

A REVIEW OF THE SPECIES OF PROTOZOAN EPIBIONTS ONCRUSTACEANS.I.PERITRICH CILIATESBYGREGORIO FERNANDEZ-LEBORANS and MARIA LUISA TATO-PORTODepartamento de Biologia Animal I(Zoologia),Facultad de Biologia,Pnta9a,Universidad Complutense,E-28040Madrid,SpainABSTRACTAn updated inventory of the peritrich(Protozoa,Ciliophora)epibiont species on crustaceans has been carried out.Data concerning268epibiont species,their taxonomic position,and the various crustacean basibionts were considered.The overview comprised in this study may be of use in further surveys of protozoan-crustacean epibiosis.RESUMENSe ha realizado un inventario actualizado de las especies de peritricos(Protozoa,Ciliophora) epibiontes en crustáceos.Se han considerado los datos concernientes a268especies epibiontes,su posición taxonómica,y los diferentes crustáceos visión general que comprende este estudio puede ser utilizada en futuras investigaciones sobre la epibiosis protozoos-crustáceos.INTRODUCTIONEpibiosis is a facultative association of two organisms:the epibiont and the basibiont(Wahl,1989).The term“epibiont”includes organisms that,during the sessile phase of their life cycle,are attached to the surface of a living substratum, while the basibiont lodges and constitutes a support for the epibiont(Threlkeld et al.,1993).Both concepts describe ecological functions(Wahl,1989).Several crustacean groups,cladocerans,copepods,cirripedes,isopods,amphi-pods,and decapods,include forms that are hosts for macroepibiont invertebrates (Ross,1983),and for protozoan microepibionts of the phylum Ciliophora:apos-tomatids,chonotrichids,suctorians,peritrichs,and heterotrichs(Corliss,1979; Small&Lynn,1985).The study of ciliate epibionts on crustaceans began in the last century.Bütschli(1887-89)made a compilation from former publications.After-wards,other authors(Keiser,1921;Kahl,1934,1935;Precht,1935;Raabe,1947; c®Koninklijke Brill NV,Leiden,2000Crustaceana73(6):643-683644G.FERNANDEZ-LEBORANS&M.L.TATO-PORTONenninger,1948)not only described epibiont species,but proposed explanations for the processes of epibiosis.A review of the protozoan epibionts found on de-capod crustaceans was carried out by Sprague&Couch(1971).Green(1974), in a study of the epibionts living on cladocerans,pays considerable attention to protozoan species.Ho&Perkins(1985)have focused on the epibionts found on copepods.In other contemporary and also earlier works,the following aspects have been taken into account:(1)speci city between ciliates and their crustacean basi-bionts(Evans et al.,1981;Batisse,1986,1992;Clamp,1991);(2)the morpholog-ical and physiological adaptations of the epibionts(D’Eliscu,1975;Batisse,1986, 1994;Fenchel,1987;Clamp,1991;Lom&De Puytorac,1994);(3)the effects pro-duced by the epibionts on the crustaceans(Herman et al.,1971;Turner et al.,1979; Kankaala&Eloranta,1987;Nagasawa,1988);(4)the possible use of epibionts for the assessment of water quality(Antipa,1977;Henebry&Ridgeway,1979;Scott &Thune,1986);(5)the implications of protozoan epibionts on cultures of vari-ous species of crustaceans(Overstreet,1973;Johnson,1977,1978;Lightner,1977, 1988;Couch,1978;Scott&Thune,1986;V ogelbein&Thune,1988;Camacho& Chinchilla,1989);and(6)the organization of the epibiont communities on plank-tonic crustaceans(Threlkeld et al.,1993).Despite the fact that there is a considerable amount of information about the protozoan epibionts on crustaceans,since the works of Sprague&Couch(1971), Green(1974),and Ho&Perkins(1985),which relate to speci c crustacean groups, no further general reviews have appeared.Several new species of protozoan ciliate epibionts have recently been described(Dovgal,1985;Batisse,1992;Fernandez-Leborans&Gomez del Arco,1996;Zhadan&Mikrjukov,1996;Fernandez-Leborans et al.,1996,1997),and some of these are peritrich ciliates(Matthes& Guhl,1973;Bierhof&Roos,1977;Jankowski,1986;Dale&Blom,1987;Clamp, 1990,1991;Threlkeld&Willey,1993;Hudson&Lester,1994;Stoukal&Matis, 1994;Foissner,1996).The purpose of this work is to provide an up-to-date review of the peritrich ciliates living as epibionts on crustaceans:268species have been considered in this compilation,which may contribute data for studies of epibiosis in crustaceans.CRUSTACEAN PROTOZOAN EPIBIONTS,I.PERITRICH CILIATES645RESULTS1)Phylum CILIOPHORA Do ein,1901Class OLIGOHYMENOPHOREA De Puytorac,Batisse,Bohatier,Corliss, Deroux,Didier,Dragesco,Fryd-Versavel,Grain,Grolière,Hovasse,Iftode,Laval,Roque,Savoie&Tuffrau,1974Subclass P ERITRICHIA Calkins,1933Order S ESSILIDA Kahl,1933Family Epistylididae Kahl,1935Genus Rhabdostyla Kent,1880( g.1)R.bosminae Levander,1907.On the cladoceran Bosmina sp.R.conipes Kahl,1935.On the cladoceran Daphnia sp.Fresh water.On the cladocerans Daphnia magna,D.longispina and Scapholeberis mucronata (cf.Green,1957,1974).R.cyclopis Kahl,1935.On the copepod Cyclops sp.Fresh water.R.cylindrica Stiller,1935.On the cladoceran Leptodora ke Balaton (Hungary).On the cladoceran Leptodora kindtii.Denmark(Green,1974).R.hungarica Stiller,1931.On the cladoceran Leptodora ke Balaton (Hungary).R.globularis Stokes,1890.On the cladoceran Bosmina longirostris and on Diaphanosoma brachyurum.Germany(Nenninger,1948).R.invaginata Stokes,1886.On the ostracod Cypris sp.R.sessilis Penard,1922.On the copepod Cyclops sp.Fresh water.R.pyriformis Perty,1852(cf.Kahl,1935;on Entomostraca).On the clado-ceran Daphnia longispina(cf.Nenninger,1948).On the cladoceran Daph-nia hyalina(cf.Sommer,1950).On Daphnia pulex and Ceriodaphnia reticu-lata(cf.Hamman,1952).On Daphnia magna,D.pulex,D.cucullata,Simo-cephalus vetulus,Ceriodaphnia reticulata,and Leptodora kindtii(cf.Green, 1953).On Daphnia magna(cf.Green,1955).On Daphnia magna andD.longispina(cf.Green,1957).On Daphnia atkinsoni,D.hyalina,D.lon-gispina,D.curvirostris,D.obtusa,Ceriodaphnia laticaudata,and C.pulchel-la(cf.Green,1974).R.vernalis Stokes,1887.On the copepod Eucyclops agilis(cf.Henebry& Ridgeway,1979).1)For authors and dates of species of Crustacea mentioned herein,see separate section,below.646G.FERNANDEZ-LEBORANS&M.L.TATO-PORTOFigs.1-2.1,Rhabdostyla(R.pyriformis,after Green,1957);2,Epistylis(E.gammari,after Precht,1935).Rhabdostyla sp.Bierhof&Roos,1977.Between the spines at the end of the telson on Gammarus tigrinus.Germany.Rhabdostyla sp.Weissman et al.,1993.On the copepod Acartia hudsonica.

质子衰变(Proton+decay)

质子衰变(Proton+decay)

质子衰变(Proton decay)质子衰变(Proton decay)From the scale of the universe, there should be half of the matter, antimatter in half, two are equal in number. He said in a speech in Nobel, the earth or the solar system, and is the dominant electron proton in the number "is really a chance". He said: "very likely, some of the planet, is not the case. The planet is mainly composed of positron and proton negative. In fact, may each star in each half. These two quasars are identical spectra. In astronomy the existing methods cannot distinguish between the two types of stars." Indeed, the symmetry of the universe is natural and harmonious, consistent with the aesthetic criterion.However, physics and cosmology are speculative science is not purely theoretical, they must first respect and based on certain facts. More and more facts have shown that the cosmic particle content is far greater than the anti particle content, the two is asymmetric. Dirac speculation against the observed facts, which is not correct.Now that the observed baryon number density nB of the universe is10-6 / cm 3, namely the standard Big Bang cosmology, cosmic ray observation today is 1010 light-years (1028 cm), so in the universe and the total baryon Antibaryon difference is 1078. In order to push back very early to the big bang, when t=10-35 seconds, according to thestandard model, then the universe line is about 1 cm, so that the baryons and antibaryons number density differenceOn the other hand, the temperature of T=1028K in t=10-35 seconds, and by the standard model to the total particle number density NB = 1087 / cm 3. (2)So, by (1), (2) available in the early universe baryon asymmetry is By (3) the observation in the universe today so many baryons is required in the early asymmetry and baryon content in the universe: At that time every 109 baryon (109-1) with about a antibaryon. Obviously, this asymmetry is very small. But why is this asymmetry? This is the big bang cosmology the question must be answered.Baryon number three, the origin of CosmologyThe basic idea of the big bang cosmology believes that the processof everything in the universe has its generation, the phenomena of the universe the existing complex and asymmetric, is the evolution of the universe from the original simple, symmetric and asymmetric type (4), also from the original symmetrical universe (i.e. baryons and anti baryon number density is equal) evolved. By symmetry evolution to the asymmetry, it produces a "baryon origin".In 1967 the Soviet physicist Saha Love (Sakharov) suggested that asymmetric baryon number requires three elements from the baryon Antibaryon symmetric - the evolution of the universe:1. change of baryon number B function;2.C and CP are not conserved;3. there is a deviation from the heat balance of the.Here is the basic premise to first, if there is change of baryon number B, there are inevitable baryon number conservation process. "Baryon number conservation" B conservation,It is in the particle change process, baryon anti baryon number is constant. The proton is the lightest baryons, if it is unstable, it can decay into lighter particles is not of the baryons and it willinevitably destroy B conservation. So, if found the proton decay, directly proved that B is not always conserved.There is no B conservation process, for solving the problem of the origin of the baryon number is only a necessary condition but not sufficient condition. Because, even if the proton is not stable, but if the antiproton is unstable, and the decay rate is the same, it still cannot evolve from symmetric to asymmetric positive and negative state and proton proton. Therefore, another necessary condition to solve the problem of the origin of the baryon number is the existence of asymmetry between positive and negative particles process, this process is called C or CP failure process failure process. Here, P represents the space inversion, which is reversible; C represents the charge conjugation, namely particle and anti particle exchange; CP conserved meaning: will swap around at the same time, particles and antiparticles swap, the laws of physics remain unchanged. As a system of baryons andantibaryons in entropy is equal to the number of maximum deviation, so the heat balance is generated when the microscopic interactionasymmetry is necessary. Therefore, once these processes deviate from the heat balance, you can make a first symmetrical universe into a baryon Antibaryon asymmetry than. This is the second, third elements proposed by Saha Love.CP process is not conserved, early in 1964 by the American physicist Cronin (Cronin), Fitch (Fitch) et al found (the discovery that two of them were awarded the 1980 Nobel prize in physics). This is thelongevity of the hit K1 meson decay. The following two kinds of meson decay process:Because the anti particle of K1 is its own, so, if CP is conserved. These two kinds ofDecay of opportunity must be equal. Proof of successful experiments of Cronin et al., K1 is moreThe CP is a real effect. Cronin in his speech, Nobel said: "this effect tells us, between matter and antimatter asymmetry basic."Four, grand unification theory and the evolution of the universe There is a direct link between the asymmetry? In our daily experience why proton is stable? This series of questions, the big bang cosmology does not provide people with more knowledge. What should I do? In modern science increasingly integrated today, people already broke through the barriers between thetraditional professional disciplines, in between the fields of exploration, mining and cultivation. People of the research results ofthe grand unified theory "used in the evolution of the universe, which opens up a new prospect for solving the" baryon number origin ".The grand unified theory, is the strong interaction is based on a unified unified in weak, make a unified description in theory. A unified model is currently the most popular SU (5), it will be quarks and leptons together which can be transformed into each other, which is not according to the conservation of baryon number. In this theory, in addition to transfer the electromagnetic force, the weak interaction of photon transfer boson gluon transfer, strong external,Also requires a new role leading to transfer the baryon number isnot conserved. This new function is called super weak, its transmission called "X particle". Because the X particles can cause B damage and X conservation, then there may be particle decay below:A class may decay as follows:These processes exist, will lead to proton decay.The proton is composed of u, u, d three quarks. Through the mediumof X particles, can make two quarks and anti quarks into leptons, quarks and the anti proton in third quarks meson, and proton decay to lepton and meson. The specific reaction sequence following instantiation: By the interaction of X particle coupling is very weak, and the quality of X is very large, so the proton extremely long life. The theory is expected, the quality of X is about 1015GeV (equivalent to 1015 times the mass of the proton), the average life expectancy of proton decay is about 1031. That is to say, that the grand unifiedtheory, only when the energy is as high as 1015GeV (G=109), B of the process will play a significant role. At present, the largest high-energy accelerator of only a few hundred GeV, so for B conservation process in the laboratory is difficult to achieve. What places have such high energy? People naturally think of the big bang universe.Now that the big bang cosmology, the universe is about 15 billion years ago, from the beginning of the big bang, after the explosion of material in homogeneous and isotropic dramatic expansion from theinfinite high temperature cooling down. This theory, 2.73K background radiation and space helium abundance observed facts support. If the extrapolation of the standard big bang model to zero time until close to the explosion, then the total energy of all the space should be above 1015GeV. This provides the evolution mechanism of the grand unified theory for the origin of the baryon number, and after the big bang of the very early universe created conditions for the baryon origin, the combination of the two, can naturally explain the baryon number asymmetry:In the age of the universe is less than 10-35 seconds when the temperature is higher than 1028K, corresponding to the thermal motion of particles in the universe, but because of the medium in thermal equilibrium, so the baryons and antibaryons number density is equal to annihilation or decay and disappear. If thisis the destruction of the CP decay, X particle decay results will lead to theoretical predictions, then the asymmetry will be betweenparticle and anti particle in 10-35 seconds nB ratio) is 10-9, then the total number of baryons and antibaryons difference will not change, but the density difference is not, stay composed of excess baryon Antibaryon universe, and then completely disappeared. This is the people today to see the scene.The unified theory of the evolution of the universe and particle harmoniously combined, draw a reasonable and natural evolution image, make people see the solution of the problem of the origin of baryon number of the dawn, which inspires many people seriously adopt a unified concept, in-depth study of the evolution problem of various largeunified model and universal input. In 1981, the National Science Foundation for a new research at the University of California Shengbabala branch of theoretical physics research,Is inviting the world working on similar problems of collective research scholars, six months to a year, expect them to work together, than they independently studied more fruitful results. In 1, the second half of June, they focus on the close relation between cosmology and particle physics, the research about the early universe, has made a lot of achievements. Now, although the description standard scheme of the baryon asymmetry generated has been widely accepted but this model still exist some basic uncertainty. Do not determine the thermal equilibrium hypothesis relates to as initial conditions. It was pointed out that if the universe is not in thermal equilibrium, without weighing the resulting level maybe different. Another uncertain place is the magnitude and type of CP damage. In 1980 Cronin Nobel said in a speech: "we've seen CP today is" legacy fossil "destroy the speculation of the early examples of the universe, this problem is still not answered....... We also know enough damage to CP "," we need to know the basic theory of CP damage, we need to know how reliable the CP damage characteristics of extrapolation to superhigh energy." Has almost become the conclusion. Someone made a decision to baryon asymmetry CP damage and the neutron electric dipole moment and not with the K meson system associated model (the neutron electric dipole moment is another possible form of CP damage). It isstill exploring. In conclusion, considerable progress in the theory of the origin of the baryon number, there are also some basic problems to be solved.Five, explore the proton decay experimentPractice is the criterion for testing truth. Baryon number origin must await further observation, to determine its reliability. To explore the proton decay experiment is feasible under the current conditions of the observation project.To detect the proton decay from the experiment is very difficult. Because of the proton decay examples of extremely long life, rarely, plus the product after the decay is not easy to detect and identify such experiments is not easy. All the experiments must meet the following conditions: first, there must be enough observation material, assuming that the proton lifetime for 1031, when we watch the pool of 4000 tonsof water (containing about 2.5 x 1033 protons and neutrons), every month can expectto see 20 examples of decay. Excluding other effects can be observed only about half. Therefore, there must be a lot of material monitoring. Neutron (except H2, all substances containing nearly half. The neutronis composed of quarks, also due to the transfer of a X quark particle decay. In all the "proton decay experiment, neutron decay is also included in this). Second, must eliminate interference of cosmic ray. The experiment must be in deep underground or under the sea, to prevent the use of cosmic rays or soil water, but in a high energy cosmic ray muon and neutrino, muon penetration is very strong, there is still a part of the deep underground, and neutrinos can almost penetrate the earth without attenuation. According to the unified theory, proton decay most often the possible ways of P to PI 0+e+. PI 0 will immediately decay into two photons. We can from the measuring device within one point suddenly released a e+ and two gammaAs the +n0+e+ process, we can distinguish. So,Third, to have a signal to identify the authenticity of the track and energy characteristics of proton decay products of the device.The first experiment is Reines and Goldhaber conducted in 1954. They used 50 kilograms of scintillator, the total number of protons and neutrons is about 3 * 1028. If there is a proton decay of e+ and PI 0, then each particle energy should be close to 500MeV, of which 0 PI quickly decays for high-energy gamma photon. The motion of the energeticparticles in the scintillator will make the scintillation luminescence. Using photomultiplier tube to accept these optical signals can calculate the trajectory and energy of energetic particles, whichcan distinguish the interference and the cosmic ray proton decay. In order to reduce the influence of cosmic rays, experiments were carried out in a 30 meter deep underground chamber. The test run for a few hours, a few times per second flash, but the analysis results that these flash are false signal caused by cosmic rays, not a proton decay event found. It can be concluded that the proton lifetime at least more than 1022.Compared with several groups of experiments currently underway, the first experiment in 1954, the scale is too small. At present, the proton decay experiment can be roughly divided into two categories:A kind of water observation material. High-energy charged particles moving in water, as long as the speed is greater than the speed of light will shine (water Cherenkov effect). In very pure water, light propagation distance of up to tens of meters, the range is much longer than the particle, so you can use less of the instrument to monitor more material. The largest experiment was carried out in a 600 meter deepsalt mine in the American state of Ohio. The research group from the University of California at Erwin University of Michigan Brook, Brookhaven National Laboratory and some other universities in the United States, Britain, Poland, the leader is Reines. The detector center is 17 x 18 x six 23m3 pure water, surrounded by 2048 rectangularphotomultiplier tube, each diameter is 12.5cm, Cerenkov radiation andtwo photon detection based on e+ through pure water, after 130 days of observation, were detected in a decay event. In 1983 they announced that the lower limit of theaverage life expectancy for proton decayP > 6.5 * 1031Another type of iron or concrete material for monitoring. Iron isthe major, so the number of nuclear as much iron in small area. But the iron is opaque, no Cherenkov effect can be used, only the direct detection of secondary particles produced by decay. Because of these particles in the range of iron in only a few centimeters, therefore, experimental device must be made a layer of iron, a layer of white folded detector. The unit weight of material in this device, detector and electronic system of a class of more than before, so this kind of device is generally more than 100 tons. A typical experiment is by University of Tokyo of Japan and India in collaboration with scientists in India Kolar gold more than 2300 meters deep underground. The summer of 1982, the group announced that found three proton decay examples, and the proton lifetime=7 * 1030.And the European Group, they conducted a study in Italy, the French Alps peak Blanc border tunnel. In 1983, the European Group also claimed that observed a decay event.The most simple SU (5) predicted that the grand unified theory, the average life expectancy of proton decay is not greater than 2.5 x in1031. To 1983, the experimental data of India gold group in support of SU (5) model, but the "salt" group and SU (5) the result is contrary. It is generally believed that from the experimental scale, observation method and the statisticalprecision of view, the United States "salt" experiments are credible, and "gold" the rough, the result is not convincing.According to reports, a meeting of 1984 yuan at the beginning of the month in the United States held in Utah, India, United States of Ohio, Japan, Switzerland and the United States, Utah, a total of five experimental groups, published experimental data about proton decay. In the experimental group to a mine in Japan Kamioka in comparison to announce with certainty, they found two cases of proton decay. Indiagold group reported they found a new instance, which they thought might be the proton decay event increased to four. However, Ohio's "salt"group or negative attitude. They reported that 170 decay phenomenon was recorded in the work of the CPC in 200 days, but all these phenomena are due to false signal caused by the neutrino. They concluded that the average life expectancy of the proton is greater than 2 * in 1032, therefore, the proton can decay, is still a mystery. However, can be interpreted as the case has increased in proton decay.The overall trend of six, baryon origin and ScienceThe origin of the baryon number is a frontier topic in particle physics and cosmology. Through the collaborative efforts of physicists and cosmologists, has put forward a reasonable scheme of baryon numberorigin. The first people hope that through the proton decay experiments to achieve a breakthrough. From the experimental results of 1984 several proton decay study group, people have seen "chaos". Although the unsolved problems are also many, the road is tortuous, but the pace is accelerating, which is no doubt. People see, in the study of this issue, the process of exploring the interdisciplinarypenetration of how important it is to explore the origin of the baryon number and make full use of particle physics and cosmology of the two disciplines and methods, this is between the basic theory of mutual integration, mutual coordination and transplantation and research methods the research method, which is a vivid manifestation of scienceis moving towards integration.The motion of matter form is not only diverse and unified. Thesubject also has differences and connections, mutual transition and transformation. When the study of the objective phenomenon of different disciplines is more thorough and meticulous, the more feel theconnection between all things and phenomena more closely. The particle and the universe are the two extremes of the physical world, in particle physics and cosmology of the two seems to be totally different fieldsbut there is a convergence point, it is the early universe. At that time, the medium is super hot gas composed of a large number of high-energy particles, and high-energy particle law became the basis of the overall behavior of the domination of the universe. At the confluence of the big bang model, a unified model of particle physics and cosmology of themutual integration, thereby creating a new scheme of baryon number origin, it not only helps people understand the evolution of the universe,But also can help people determine what elements of the particle physics theory is reasonable.In particle physics, symmetry method is a very importantresearch method. People can judge according to the symmetry of a process can occur. It also can not understand the specific form of interaction, according to the principle of symmetry of phenomenological particles occur between certain connections, so as to facilitate the systematic study of them. Symmetry also determines the lifetime of the particle. Because the particle decay is caused by the interaction of the strong interaction, particle decays faster, then the shorter the life.It is the symmetry method plays an important role in particle physics, Dirac put it as the "essence" of new methods of physics theory, and Heisenberg praised the symmetry reflects the spirit of the contemporary era of natural science". The symmetry method transplanted in cosmology, the emphasis is the research on asymmetry of things. From the nature of matter over antimatter in the observation of the facts, how to study from the baryon Antibaryon symmetric universe evolved into the baryon asymmetry of the universe. Which nature should be the existence of a process of baryon number is not conserved and CP symmetry, put forward the new thinking, not only prompted people to review some of the law of conservation of particle physics in the applicable scope and thesymmetry breaking mechanism, to further promote the development of physics, but also in the way of thinking to remind people: universal and effective not only should pay attention to the symmetry method, should also pay attention to the relativity and its limitations, should not be absolute symmetry, and should be dialectically integrated.The mutual infiltration and combination between disciplines, and even changing the research means. Always large accelerator is a basic tool for particle physicists. The basic tools of cosmologists has always been a large telescope. Now, theparticle physicists to left over from the big bang singularity particle bulk material search, helium and deuterium abundancedistribution of galaxies, cosmic microwave background, the structure and the detection of solar neutrino experiments are concerned. But cosmologists on mountains of cosmic ray observation, accelerator and reactor experiments, fractional charge detection, magnetic monopole search and other interested. The proton decay deep underground mine in the experiment, it is their common concern target. In short, the detection range of particle physics laboratory is extended to the deep, deep into the earth; cosmology by deep space and deep underground into the laboratory, research methods of two disciplines closely, are heading towards the same goal of advancing.

Antiprotonic hydrogen in static electric field

Antiprotonic hydrogen in static electric field

a rXiv:n ucl-t h /5132v112Ja n25Antiprotonic hydrogen in static electric field G.Ya.Korenman and S.N.Yudin Skobeltsyn Institute of Nuclear Physics,Moscow State University,Moscow,Russia e-mail:korenman@anna19.sinp.msu.ru Abstract Effects of the static electric field on the splitting and annihilation widths of the levels of antiprotonic hydrogen with a large principal quantum number (n =30)are studied.Non-trivial aspects of the consideration is related with instability of (p ¯p )∗-atom in ns and np -states due to coupling of these states with the annihila-tion channels.Properties of the mixed nl -levels are investigated depending on the value of external static electric field.Specific resonance-like dependence of effective annihilation widths on the strength of the field is revealed.1Introduction When antiproton enters a matter it is slowed down and captured eventually by atom forming an antiprotonic atom.From the general point of view this new physical object is of the great interest.For the long time the experimental methods to investigate an-tiprotonic atoms have been limited by studying their X-ray radiation and the products of antiproton annihilation at the end of cascade transitions.However,about 15years agothe investigations of these atoms have got on the new qualitative level especially due to the new experimental methods (see [1,2]and references therein)that used antiprotonic beam from storing ring of LEAR operated in CERN up to 1996.New setup AD (”an-tiproton decelerator”)that has been operating since the end of 2001opens,in definite aspects,even more possibilities for experimental study of antiprotonic atoms.In particu-lar,in the frame of ASACUSA project [3]it is supposed,among other experiments,direct observation and investigation of antiprotonic atoms formation in very rarefied gases.The new experimental possibilities pose various problems of the theory of antiprotonic atoms that were not considered early because they seemed to be of little importance in the former experimental conditions.One of such problem could be an influence of ex-ternal static electric field on the properties of antiprotonic atoms,especially antiprotonic hydrogen.Static electric and magnetic fields can be generated by some parts of an exper-imental setup,therefore they have to be taken into account in precision measurements of the properties of excited (p ¯p )atom.On other hand,a special choice of the fields could be used in order to obtain an additional information on the properties of antiprotonic atoms.According to current concepts of the theory of exotic atom formation (see,e.g.,[4,5]),the antiprotonic atoms are formed initially in highly exited states with principal quantum number n n 0≃√(1≪l n−1),whereµis a reduced mass of the¯p-nucleus system in the units of electron mass(so,for the formation in atomic hydrogenµ=918,n0=30).When (p¯p)nl atom is formed in molecular hydrogen,the distribution over quantum number is more complicated,however the probability of population of the states with large n and l remains rather appreciable.Among the highly excited states,specific interest can present circular orbits with l=n−1and nearly-circular orbits.In isolated antiprotonic hydrogen atom these states can decay only by radiative E1-transition.Radiative life time of hydrogen-like atom at large n,l can be estimated by the equation[6]τγ(nl)≃(n3l2/µZ4)·84.5ps(1) that givesτγ=2.09µs for the circular orbit with n=30of antiprotonic hydrogen. This life time is of the same order of value as for antiprotonic helium metastable states [1],therefore the same high-precision method of laser-induced transition could be,in principle,applied for the study of energy structure and dynamics of the excited states of antiprotonic hydrogen.However,the(p¯p)atom,as compare with(¯p He+),may be less stable against atomic collisions and influence of externalfields,because a most part of the(p¯p)nl states with a definite n is degenerated in l,contrary to antiprotonic helium. Therefore theoretical study of the quenching effects on the long-lived states of antiprotonic hydrogen is important for the possible future experiments.One of the most important factors to quench long-lived states is the electricfield arising in the processes of atomic collisions or as a results of the external conditions.The dynamical(collisional)Stark effect in hadronic hydrogen atoms was discussed in the literature for a long time[6,7]. However the influence of the external static electricalfield,as far as we know,was not discussed in the literature,in spite of the seeming simplicity of this effect.In this paper we discuss the influence of electricfield on the splitting and decay rates of highly-excited (n=30)states of antiprotonic hydrogen atoms.2Formulation of the problemThe states with large quantum numbers n,l of isolated antiprotonic hydrogen(p¯p)nl are long-lived,because annihilation in the states with l≫1is practically absent and,on other hand,these states have large radiative life times.However,if some external action forces transitions of the(p¯p)system to the states with low orbital angular momenta,then antiproton will annihilate quickly.In the problem under consideration an external action is produced by the static external electricfield.Formally this problem is formulated as follows.If the nuclear(p¯p)-interaction is disregarded,all the states nl of antiprotonic hydrogen atom will be degenerated in l.In the real system nuclear interaction is important in the states with low angular momenta and it produces the both shifts and annihilation widths of the levels,or,in other words,complex shifts∆E nl=−ǫnl−iΓnl/2.(2) The estimations show that these values at n∼30are important for l=0,1and can be neglected for l≥2.So,the complex shifts remove the degeneration of the ns and np−levels,whereas other levels remain to be degenerated.A dependence of the complexshifts on the principal quantum number can be obtained taking into account that the radius of annihilation region and of nuclear interaction is small as compare with a radius of the antiprotonic hydrogen atom.Radial wave function of antiprotonic atom this region should have the simple form R nl(r)≃C nl·r l.It allows to express the dependence the complex shifts∆E nl on n in terms of the coefficients C nl:∆E nl=∆E l+1,l|C nl/C l+1,l|2(3) The coefficients C nl are estimated,as a rule,with the hydrogen-like wave functions that givesΓns=Γ1s/n3,(4)Γnp=Γ2p·32(n2−1)/(3n5),(5) and similarly forǫnl.As the input data we have taken the following values for the energy shifts and widths[8]:Γ1s/2=561eV,ǫ1s=691eV,Γ2p/2=17meV,ǫ2p=0.(6)With these values we obtain from the Eqs.(4),(5)for the states with n=30:Γns/2=20.78meV,ǫns=25.59meV,Γnp/2=0.00671meV,ǫnp=0.(7)Total hamiltonian H of the antiprotonic hydrogen atom in the external electricfield can be written as a sum of two terms,H=H0+V,(8)where H0is a diagonal matrix with elementsnl|H0|nl′ =δll′(δl0∆E ns+δl1∆E np).(9) The matrix of interaction of the atom with the electricfield E directed along Oz axis has the form:nlm|V|nl′m′ =eEr0(3/2)nthefield less than a critical value,at which non-diagonal matrix element nl|V|n′l′ is comparable with the distance between the levels with different n.It is easy to estimate that for the levels with n≃30this critical value of thefield is E a∼109V/cm,that is far from real laboratoryfields.It should be noted that in the problem under consideration there are also two other critical values of thefield.Thefirst one is thefield that mixes effectively ns and np states, and other one is that mixed np and nd states,the latter being degenerated with all other nl states for l>2.With the above-mentioned values of strong interaction shifts and annihilation widths of the ns and np states,we estimate the corresponding criticalfields as E b∼3.3·106V/cm for a mixing of ns and np at n=30,and E c∼2000V/cm for a mixing of np and nd states.We restrict our consideration by thefields up to5000V/cm, therefore only third critical value E c of thefield is covered by these calculations.For the further discussion of the obtained results let us remember also,that the prob-lem of Stark mixing in the degenerated(without initial shifts and widths)hydrogen-like system at thefixed n has the exact solution in the parabolic coordinates[9].Eigenstates of a such system are labeled by parabolic quantum numbers n1,n2,m(n1+n2+|m|+1=n), the splitting of the levels is linear in electricfield,whereas the coefficients nlm|n1n2m of mixing of the states with different l do not depend on the value of thefield and can be expressed in terms of Clebsh-Gordan coefficients,nlm|n1n2m 2= kν1kν2|lm 2,(11) where k=(n−1)/2,ν1=(n1−n2+m)/2,ν2=m−ν1.Therefore the admixture of ns-state to all parabolic states with m=0should be ns|nn1 2=1/n,and the weights of the np-state in the parabolic states are np,m|nn1,m 2=0.019÷0.025at n=30.These relationships could describe the effect of externalfield on antiprotonic hydrogen at very high values of the electricfield(E b<E<E a).However for the realistic values of E<E b the influence of thefield can not be predicted without calculations.The results of our calculations are shown on Figs.1-4.On thesefigures the shifts W(E)and widthsΓ(E)of the states are presented in the relative units of|W max|andΓmax, which are the maximum values of these quantities in the considered interval of electric fields(0≤E≤5000V/cm).Different types of dependencies of the shifts on the value E of electricfield are shown on Figs.1-2for several levels with m=0.The levels are labeled by the indexes l that correspond to the quantum numbers of the states in the limit E=0.With respect to the dependence of the shifts on E,the levels can be divided into two main types.The shifts are negative for l≤14and positive for l≥16,and in the both cases they rise in absolute value with increasing of the electricfield.Within the intermediate interval l∈13−16 the shifts are very small and change the signs.It is seen from Fig.2that in this region the shifts are nonlinear in E and,moreover,they behave themselves for thefirst sight unusually,showing a resonance-like behaviour at E∼E c.However,the nature of a such behaviour is quite clear-this is a result of some crossing of the levels that takes place with a change of the values of electricfield.For the levels with|m|=1we observe a similar behaviour with E.The widths of the levels with m=0are shown on Figs.3-4depending on the value of electricfield.For the states with l≤13and l≥16the widths grow with increasing of the electricfield,however in the aforementioned interval13≥l≤16the widths depend10002000300040005000E,V cm -1-0.8-0.6-0.4-0.2W W max(a)10002000300040005000E,V cm

static electric field.The shift and width of the ns state are practically unchanged at the considered values of E .It is related with the large values of the ’self’shift and width,or,in other words,with the fact that the value of E is small as compare with critical field E b as estimated above.Thus the obtained values of ’induced’widths of all the states with l =0are due to the influence of np-states in the considered interval of electric fields.At larger electric fields the contribution of ns states would be a more essential.4ConclusionIn this paper we have made the analysis of the splitting and annihilation widths of the levels of antiprotonic hydrogen atom in the static external electric field.As compare with the theoretical case when all the levels are degenerated and the exact analytical solution of this problem exists,we meet here a more complicated situation.This complication10002000300040005000E,V cm 0.20.40.60.81max(a)10002000300040005000E,V cm0.20.40.60.81 max

formulated as follows:a)due to mixing of different nl states (l >1)with np states at the value of electric field E ∼1000V/cm,all the states acquire the widths of order 108÷1091/s.The relevant shifts for the most part of the states are linear in E and have the order of value 10−5eV.b)Contribution of the ns state into the widths of other levels is negligible at the considered values of electric field (E ≤5000V/cm),because the ns state is very distant in complex energy from all other levels and can be admixed to these states at E ∼3·106V/cm.As a result,the main contribution to the widths of the mixed levels gives np state.c)For the states that are close to the point,where the sign of the shift is changed,the shifts and widths of exact states have a resonance-like dependence on the value of electric field.The ’resonance’value of electric field is of the same order as critical value E c ,which provides strong mixing of the np state with other states (l ≥2).This phenomenon is due to a crossing of the levels at some value of the electric field.AcknowledgementsThis investigation was supported by Russian Foundation for Basic Research as a part of the project03-02-16616.Authors thank

明确中国大陆地区幽门螺杆菌(Hp)阴性消化性溃疡与出血的关系.方法 拟定于2006年4月至2007年3月期间在国内14个研究中心中进行,每个中心预期调查30例经急诊内镜诊断为胃溃疡和(或)十二指肠溃疡合并出血的患者(PUB组),同时调查30例不伴出血的胃溃疡和(或)十二指肠溃疡患者作为对照(PU组).共拟入选840例患者,消化性溃疡合并及不合并出血组各420例.在内镜检查中采用快速尿素酶试验和病理检测Hp感染,并对初次检查Hp阴性者于1个月后进行尿素呼气试验复查.结果 共617例患者纳入分析,其中PUB组263例、PU组354例,2组在性别比、平均年龄等一般状况方面差异无统计学意义(P均>0.05).PUB组Hp阳性率61.2%(161/263)显著低于PU组的87.9%(311/354)(P<0.001);PUB组Hp阳性的溃疡出血发生复合溃疡的比例7.5%(12/161)显著高于Hp阴性溃疡出血者1.0%(1/102)(P=0.018),但两者在平均发病年龄、性别比、呕血发生率、十二指肠球部溃疡发生率、胃溃疡发生率及溃疡平均直径方面差异无统计学意义(P均>0.05).对于初次Hp阴性的溃疡出血患者,1个月后的呼气试验复查未发现阳性病例.结论 目前中国大陆Hp阴性溃疡在消化性溃疡出血中的比例较高,Hp阴性溃疡可能更容易并发消化道出血,需要引起消化专科医生的重视.3.期刊论文张保环.干超士.柴军土.徐惠萍.乐怀浙.ZHANG Bao-huan.GAN Chao-shi.CHAI Jun-tu.XU Hui-ping.LE Huai-zhe消化性溃疡伴幽门螺杆菌感染患者184例干预治疗分析-中国基层医药2008,15(7)目的

• The potential benefits of antiplatelet therapy for atherosclerotic cardiovascular (CV) disease have been amply demonstrated over the past 20 years, especially thienopyridine drugs in preventing stent thrombosis. • Antiplatelet agents increase the risk of bleeding associated with mucosal breaks in the upper and lower gastrointestinal (GI) tract. • Rational use of thienopyridines is based on weighing their risks against their benefits.
• Clopidogrel alone, aspirin alone, and their combination are all associated with increased risk of GI bleeding. • Use of a PPI or histamine H2 receptor antagonist (H2RA) reduces the risk of upper GI bleeding compared with no therapy. • PPIs reduce upper GI bleeding to a greater degree than do H2RAs.

The variation in peritonitis rates in recently published studies (1–20) is astonishing: from a low of 0.06 episodes per year in a Taiwanese program to a high of 1.66 episodes per year at risk in an Israeli pediatric program (Table 1). Those rates mean that an individual patient, on average, may expect to have peritonitis as rarely as once every 17 years in one cen-ter, or as frequently as once every 7 months in another. Even at centers within a single country, there is often a marked variation in the peritonitis rate. For example, the Scottish registry has centers with rates that range from 0.43 episodes to 0.89 episodes per year (1), the LondonThames centers vary from 0.14 episodes to 1.0 episodes per year (9), and the Austrian Study Group centers range from 0.07 episodes to 0.60 episodes per year (10). Ex-planations for such marked variations are lacking, but are likely related at least in part to differences in patient training and in infection-prevention protocols. Varia-tions in the accuracy with which peritonitis episodes are recorded may also contribute in part to the differences in reported rates.Studies on preventing PD-related infections are lim-ited both in number and in quality, and guidelines are therefore not yet appropriate. The present position paper is a compilation of the opinions of experts in the field, combined with the available evidence. It is intended to provide support to PD programs developing approachesto reduce PD-related infections to very low levels atall centers. Suggestions for which there is published research are labeled “evidence”; suggestions for which only case reports, limited observational studies, or theexperience of the work group are available are labeled“opinion.” We hope that this review of the problems willstimulate further research into this important topic.Specific guidelines for treating peritonitis were updated and published in 2010 (21), as were guidelines for PD Correspondence to: B.

The present position paper is directed specifically at the prevention of PD-related infections, and it is intended primarily for adult programs; however, many of the principles are likely to be applicable to pediatric programs as well.MONITORING PERITONITIS • Every program should monitor infection rates at least quarterly (23–26). (Opinion)• A team approach for continuous quality improvement (CQI) is the key to a successful PD program (25–26). (Opinion)The PD CQI team generally includes nephrologists, nurses, social workers, and dietitians. Regular meetings of the team should be held to examine all PD-related infections, identifying the root cause of each episode. If a pattern of infections develops, the team needs to investigate and to plan interventions such as retrain-ing, equipment changes, application of new protocols for exit-site care, or management of contamination (to mention just a few examples). Tracking not only the overall rates of each type of PD-related infection, but also the rates by organism will aid the team in identify-ing problems and trends. The organisms causing theperitonitis episodes can provide important clues to thepossible causality (Table 2). Peritonitis episodes caused by Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa are often secondary to exit-site and tunnel infections with the same organisms; peritonitis episodes caused by coagulase-negative staphylococci are generally re-lated to contamination at the time of connection or tocontamination of tubing (27), and they indicate a needto re-examine training methods. The CQI team identifies problems, develops solutions, and evaluates results in an iterative fashion.Calculation of peritonitis rates should be standard-ized and should be clearly defined in any publication on peritonitis. Most observers would start to calculate the time at risk for peritonitis as the first day of training;TABLE 1Peritonitis Rates Around the WorldPatient population (n ) Episodes per Country Reference Year Adults Children Centers year at risk (n )Scotland Kavanaugh (1) 2004 1205a 0.62Japan Hoshii (2) 2006 130 0.17Canada Mujais (3) 2006 26 0.43United States Mujais (3) 2006 35a 0.37Japan Nakamoto (4) 2006 139 0.22Portugal Rodrigues (5) 2006 312 0.39Canada Fang (6) 2008 312 0.33China Fang (6) 2008 496 0.20Taiwan Tzen–Wen (7) 2008 100 0.06Turkey Akman (8) 2009 132 0.77United Kingdom Davenport (9) 2009 1904 pt–yrs a 0.82 CAPD 0.66 APD Austria Kipriva–Altfart (10) 2009 332 0.24Brazil Mores (11) 2009 680a 0.74Canada Nessim (12) 2009 4247a 0.36Spain Perez Fontan (13) 2009 641 0.38United States Qamar (14) 2009 137a 0.24Netherlands Ruger (15) 2009 205a 0.60France Castrale (16) 2010 1631b 0.36Israel Cleper (17) 2010 29 1.66Australia/New Zealand Fahim (18) 2010 4675a 0.62Australia Jarvis (19) 2010 4675a 0.60Qatar Shigidi (20) 2010 241 0.24CAPD = continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis; APD = automated peritoneal dialysis.a Registry data.b Elderly patients.by guest on July 22, 2014/Downloaded fromPIRAINO et al. NovEMBER 2011 - voL. 31, No. 6 PDIsome might consider the date of catheter insertion to be the starting point. The former is probably preferable, because the latter might lead to falsely low rates, espe-cially in centers that place the catheter many weeks or even months before the start of training.The rate is calculated by totaling all the peritonitis episodes that occurred during the entire time on PD (“at risk”) for all patients in the program during the period in question. That total is then divided by the time at risk in years. “Time at risk” is the sum of all days that each patient was on PD during the time in question. The days at risk are then converted to years at risk.Peritonitis episodes that occur while the patient is hospitalized and not doing self-dialysis might be exclud-ed, but the work group feels that including all episodes while the patient is on PD is the best approach. The stop points for time at risk are generally successful transplan-tation (even though the catheter may be left in place for a period of time) and transfer to hemodialysis. Time spentduring a period of temporary transfer to hemodialysisshould not be included in the time at risk.As shown in Table 1, low peritonitis rates are achiev-able. We believe that a rate of 0.36 episodes per patient per year can be reached by most programs. However, overall rates as low as 0.06 – 0.24 episodes per year at risk or 1 episode every 50 – 200 months have been reported,and so those are the goals that dialysis programs should strive to achieve (2,4,6,7,10,14,20).Yearly, each program should also examine the propor-tion of patients who are peritonitis-free. A minimum of 80% of patients should be peritonitis-free in any givenyear. Often, a small number of patients experience most of the peritonitis episodes. Those patients require close scrutiny, with the development of approaches to lower the infection risk in such patients. That effort may require more intensive training, home visits, or the training of a family member. The dialysis center personnel should closely examine the organisms causing the peritonitis and determine whether the peritonitis is relapsing,repeat, or recurrent (as discussed later in this position paper). A program may also find it helpful to calculatea median rate for all the individual patient rates. In a successful program, the median rate will be zero, with most patients having no peritonitis episodes in a given year.It is very important to examine organisms not just as a percentage of the total but also as an absolute rate (episodes per year). Only in this way can the results of a center be compared, organism-by-organism, with the results in the literature. To evaluate problem areas in aprogram, the rates of infection by organism should beexamined and followed on a regular basis because of theimportant information provided.For example, at one center, 30% of all peritonitis is caused by S. aureus, similar to the proportion reported at another center. However, if the first center has an overall peritonitis rate of 0.2 episodes per year, the S. aureus rate is then 0.06 episodes per year. That rate can then be compared to the rate at the second center whose overall peritonitis rate is 0.60 episodes per year, for a S. aureus peritonitis rate of 0.18 episodes per year. The second center therefore has a rate of S. aureus peritonitis that is 3 times the rate at the first center, despite a similar proportion of S. aureus episodes at the two centers.In addition to examining rates by organism at multiple centers, publications on PD-related infections should also present the organism-specific data as rates, and not just as proportions or percentages of the total peritonitis rate. Table 3 shows an example of rates by organism.TABLE 2 Causes of Peritonitis 1 C ontamination, most likely skin or environmental o rganisms Contamination at the time of connection Contamination from tubing Hole in exchange tubing or catheter L oss of cap on end of tubing or failure to close clamp with leaking Product defects 2 C atheter related, most often staphylococcal species or Pseudomonas aeruginosa B iofilm on internal portion of the catheter (relapsing, repeat peritonitis) Exit-site and tunnel infection 3 B owel-source enteric organisms including gram-negative rods, Candida, and anaerobes Diverticulitis Cholecystitis Ischemic bowel ColitisPerforated stomach or intestine Colonoscopy, especially with polypectomy C onstipation with transmural migration of organisms into peritoneum 4 Bacteremia, often Streptococcus or Staphylococcus Transient from dental procedures Infection of intravascular device 5 G ynecologic source, often Streptococcus, Candida, some gram-negative rods Peritoneal vaginal leak Vaginal delivery Hysteroscopy by guest on July 22, 2014/Downloaded fromPDI NovEMBER 2011 - voL. 31, No. 6 ISPD: REDUCING THE RISKS OF PD-RELATED INFECTIONSthe potential benefit against the risk of vancomycin usehastening the emergence of resistant organisms.In patients participating in the U.S. National CAPDRegistry, catheter survival was superior for double-cuffcatheters compared with single-cuff catheters; double-cuff catheters were also less likely to result in catheter removal for exit-site infection (32). This benefit was not confirmed in a single-center randomized trial with a much smaller number of patients (33); however, a recent study from Canada found that double-cuff catheters were associated with lower rates of S. aureus peritonitis (12). A large multicenter randomized controlled trial (RCT) would be helpful to resolve this question.A downward-directed tunnel may decrease the risk of catheter-related peritonitis (34); however, randomized trials have not confirmed a benefit for the swan-neck configuration in reducing PD-related infections (29,30), nor has burying the catheter proved effective in reducing the risk of infection (35). Outcomes for infectious and mechanical complications are equivalent in cathetertypes using downward and lateral tunnel-tract and exit-site configurations (30).Every effort should be made to avoid trauma and hematoma during catheter placement. The exit siteshould be round, and the tissue should fit snugly around the catheter. Sutures at the exit site increase the risk of infection and are contraindicated. Some programs obtain nose cultures before placement of the catheter, and they treat positive S. aureus nasal carriage with a 5-day course of intranasal mupirocin. No data on the effectiveness ofthat approach are available. Once the catheter is placed,and until healing is complete, dressing changes should be done by a dialysis nurse using sterile technique. The exit site should be kept dry until well healed, which precludes showers or tub baths for that period, which can take up to 2 weeks or more.TRAINING PROGRAMS• Training methods influence the risk of PD infections (36–46). (Evidence)• Whenever possible, a nurse should provide the training, according to the 2006 ISPD guidelines/recommendations for PD patient training (Figure 1, Table 4), using the principles of adult education (38). (Opinion)• Each PD program should consult the ISPD guidelines/recommendations to prepare the trainer and to devel-op a specific curriculum for PD training. (Opinion)Each PD program should ensure that the trainer of the PD patients is well prepared and has the specifictheoretical and clinical skills to present a well-plannedCATHETER PLACEMENT TO PREVENT CATHETER INFECTIONS AND THE RELATED PERITONITIS EPISODES • No particular catheter has been definitively shown to be better than the standard silicone Tenckhoff catheter for the prevention of peritonitis (28–30). (Evidence)• Prophylactic antibiotics administered at the time of i nsertion decrease the infection risk (31). (Evidence)The topic of peritoneal access has been covered in a recent position paper (22) from the International Soci-ety for Peritoneal Dialysis (ISPD). Ideally, the patient should see the surgeon or training nurse (or both) before c atheter placement, with the ideal location for the exit site being determined. In addition, the patient shouldbe free from constipation. Proper skin preparation and careful cleansing of the area where the catheter is to beplaced is essential, and if there is an excess of hair, it may need to be removed. A single dose of intravenous (IV) antibiotic given at the time of catheter placement decreases the risk of subsequent infection. A first-generation cephalosporin has been most frequently used in that context. However, a randomized trial found that vancomycin (1 g IV, single dose) at the time of catheter placement is superior to cephalosporin (1 g IV, single dose) in preventing early peritonitis (31). The odds ratio of peritonitis without any antibiotic was 11.6, and for cefazolin (compared with vancomycin), it was 6.45. Eachprogram must therefore consider using vancomycin for prophylaxis for catheter placement, carefully weighing TABLE 3 Example of Rates by Organism Episodes per Organism year at risk Peritonitis Coagulase negative Staphylococcus 0.05 S. aureus peritonitis 0.03 Other gram-positive organisms 0.04 Pseudomonas aeruginosa 0.03 Other gram-negative organisms 0.10 Multiple organisms 0.02 Fungal 0.01 No growth/no culture 0.06 TOTAL 0.34Catheter infections (exit site, tunnel) S. aureus 0.05 P. aeruginosa 0.03 All others 0.12TOTAL 0.20 by guest on July 22, 2014/Downloaded fromPIRAINO et al. NovEMBER 2011 - voL. 31, No. 6 PDIcurriculum for the patient. The center should not assume that a nurse who knows how to do PD is prepared to train patients to do PD. When the learner is a patient with a chronic disease such as end-stage renal disease, that learner has special needs that require specific teaching techniques (42). Nurse education should include theories of adult education and the specifics for teaching adult patients on PD. A full discussion of adult learning is be-yond the scope of this position paper, but is described in some detail in the ISPD guidelines/recommendations for PD patient training at (38).Ideally, a senior mentor should train new PD nurses. That approach may require that new nurses be sent to train at a more experienced center. The old adage of “see one, do one, teach one” is not an appropriate foundation for the education of nurses in the principles of teaching PD. A structured nurse training program with subsequent continuing education is important to enhance the skills and the knowledge base of the trainers. A structured ap-proach can translate into high-quality patient training and good outcomes.Unfortunately, few if any studies have considered the nurse:patient ratio that leads to the best outcomes. Overburdening the nurse with excessive numbers of patients will result in shortened training times and dif-ficulty in scheduling retraining as needed. Ideally the PD nurse should be focused solely on home dialysis and should have no in-center hemodialysis responsibilities.The work group feels that, although the practice has notbeen adequately studied, the assignment of one nurseto fully train a particular patient rather than a differentnurse on different days should be adhered to, if possible.One-on-one training is ideal, although it may not alwaysbe feasible.Interestingly, the experience of the PD nurse may beless important than the training protocol (40). A retro-spective study paradoxically found that, compared withpatients trained by newer, less experienced nurses, thepatients trained by nurses with more experience hada shorter time to peritonitis. The authors speculatedthat nurses who had practiced PD for many years mayhave been more resistant to the institution of a pro-tocol using adult learning techniques that the centerhad i mplemented. Another explanation might be thatthe nurses with more experience had been assignedto train patients who were perceived to be more dif-ficult to train. The work group members feel that allnurses need continuous education to update and hone teaching skills.The center should have a clearly developed curricu-lum for PD training modeled after the ISPD guidelines/recommendations for PD patient training (38). This cur-riculum should include a daily plan for training content and handouts such as those that can be downloaded from the relevant article posted on the ISPD website. Hand hygiene must be emphasized. Training in the proper washing and drying of the hands, and use of hand dis-infectant, especially where the water supply is not to be trusted, are critical parts of the training (further detail provided later in this paper). At the end of training, the patient should be tested to ensure that learning of the objectives has occurred.Very few randomized trials have compared training protocols and curricula for PD patients. The length of patient training for PD is variable around the world (47). The length of training has never been shown to correlate with peritonitis rates. A trial that randomized centers to an enhanced training program using adult learning principles or to the center’s standard approach found that peritonitis rates were lower with the enhanced train-ing: 0.33 episodes per year (1 episode in 36.7 months) compared with 0.43 episodes per year (1 episode in 28.2 months) respectively (37). However, the details of the training curricula were not described, and the baseline peritonitis rates differed in the two groups. In children, peritonitis rates were lower in programs with longer training dedicated to theory and technical skills (39). No randomized trials have compared different training schedules that cover the same content and curriculum.TABLE 4 Suggestions for Retraining Frequency After hospitalizationAfter peritonitis or catheter infection After change in dexterity, vision, or mental acuity Three months after initial training and routinely thereafter(once yearly at minimum)Figure 1 — Center approach to peritoneal dialysis (PD) training. by guest on July 22, 2014/Downloaded fromPDI NovEMBER 2011 - voL. 31, No. 6ISPD: REDUCING THE RISKS OF PD-RELATED INFECTIONSAll patients must be taught what contamination is and what the proper response to contamination is. Each center should have a appropriate protocol to handle contamination (48). The protocol should detail the responses to specific occurrences such as fluid infused after the contamination and open compared with closed clamping of exchange tubing (36). Patients need to come to the center for a tubing change if the end of the tubing is contaminated. Prophylactic antibiotics should be pre-scribed if dialysis solution was infused after contamina-tion or if the catheter administration set was open and exposed to bacteria for an extended period of time. After a known break in technique, many nephrologists give a 2-day course of antibiotics; others provide a single dose of intraperitoneal antibiotic. There is no standard regi-men. Generally, a culture of the effluent is not obtained after an episode of contamination. However, if culturing is done and is positive, consideration might be given to extending therapy. After contamination, a positive culture in the presence of clear fluid and no symptoms should not be considered peritonitis; however, if left untreated, the patient might develop peritonitis. The goal of managing contamination is always to prevent the development of peritonitis.According to learning specialists, retraining plays an important role in reducing mistakes (41,43,44). Task repetition causes the brain to learn both the cognitive and the physical steps of the procedures. A psychological mechanism called “false memory” is readily illustrated by patients who perform an exchange in front of the nurse, but who are not aware of mistakes being made and who say that they were taught to perform the exchange that way (41). Memory is in a labile state after early exposure to new information; memory is enhanced by returning to the learning context and cues for correct performance (43,44).After a period of time, patients may alter the procedure they were taught during training. A study of compliance with the exchange procedure done at 6 months after the start of PD found that most patients had begun to take shortcuts or had simply veered off the prescribed steps that they had been carefully taught at the start of PD (46). Half the patients did not wash their hands according to procedure, nearly half did not check the bag for leaks, and 10% forgot to wear their mask or cap. Not wearing a mask or cap was associated with subsequent peritonitis risk in that study. However, other studies have not shown that using a mask reduces peritonitis risk (49,50). An Italian study of patient knowledge about PD (assessed using a questionnaire and a review of patient behavior during a home visit) found that, after a mean of 33 months on PD, 34% of patients did not answer the questions accurately, and 23% did not follow the correct exchange procedures (41). Noncompliance with exchange protocols was sig-nificantly associated with a higher peritonitis rate. These studies suggest a need for periodic retraining.Retraining seems to be helpful in reducing peritonitisrisk, but data are limited (41,45). Russo and colleagues (41) found retraining to be important for younger pa-tients (<55 years of age), patients with a lower educa-tion level, and patients in the early or late phase of PD therapy (<18 or >36 months). An observational study of120 dialysis centers in Italy found that retraining andhome visits correlated with lower peritonitis rates (45).How often a patient should be retrained or how soonafter initiation is unknown and requires study. Table 4shows our suggestions.A patient’s learning about the signs of peritonitis in training may be long forgotten if the patient does not develop their first peritonitis for several years and ifthere is no reinforcement of information on peritonitisgiven earlier. Retraining therefore needs to include notjust technique but also recognition of this important complication. The patient needs to be reminded that haziness of the effluent might be peritonitis even in the absence of pain, and that they should take that hazinessas an indication to call the dialysis unit.In the absence of definitive studies, each PD programmust decide when and how often to routinely retrain pa-tients. Retraining should include observation of dialysis exchange procedures, handwashing technique, recogni-tion of signs and symptoms of peritonitis, recognitionof contamination and the appropriate response to it,and exit-site care. Retraining is an opportunity to pre-vent future infections, with observation to identify thee mergence of problems such as poor vision, forgetful-ness, or shortcuts.Home visits by the PD nurse may be very useful in de-tecting problems with exchange technique, adherence to protocols, and other environmental and behavioral issuesthat increase the risk of infection and are best dealt with proactively. It has long been accepted that the locationfor exchanges must be clean, with avoidance of animalhair, dust-laden air, and fans or drafts. Home visits in-dicated that retraining was necessary in approximatelyone half of a center’s patients, who were not following protocols (41).CONNECTION METHODS• Spiking of dialysis bags is a procedure that poses ahigh risk for contamination of the system. “Flush be-fore fill” reduces the risk of contamination (51–58). (Evidence)by guest on July 22, 2014/Downloaded fromPIRAINO et al.NovEMBER 2011 - voL. 31, No. 6PDI• Data on peritonitis rates in automated PD (APD) and continuous ambulatory PD (CAPD) are conflicting (12,59–62). (Evidence)• The decision on modality (APD vs CAPD) should not be based on peritonitis risk. (Opinion)Data to show that spiking leads to peritonitis are abundant. Furthermore, for both CAPD and APD, flushing with dialysate before filling the abdomen has been shown to decrease the risk of peritonitis from contamination. Therefore, for CAPD, a double-bag system should be used. Manual spiking should be avoided as much as p ossible; if spiking is required, assist devices may be used. A systematic review concluded that of all catheter-related interventions designed to prevent peritonitis in PD, only disconnect (twin-bag and Y-set) systems have been proved to be effective (compared with conventional spike systems) (58). Close attention must therefore be paid to the connection methodology. For programs that switch vendors and, therefore, connection method, careful at-tention should be paid to subsequent infection rates. Peritonitis rates on APD and CAPD are probably similar (12,59,60). The literature describing the relative risks of peritonitis with continuous cycling PD (CCPD) and CAPD is conflicting, but the disparate results may reflect the fact that the cycler connection methodology varies from study to study and sometimes is not even mentioned in the paper (59). Several studies have shown that, compared with CAPD patients, CCPD patients have significantly lower peritonitis rates (61,62); however, use of a cycler that requires spiking may lead to high rates of peritonitis caused by contamination if an assist device is not used. The work group recommends either the use of an assist device, if available, for all spiking procedures or conver-sion to a system that does not require spiking. Some cyclers require a cassette; if the cassette is reused, the risk of peritonitis cause by water-borne organisms is high (63,64). Cassettes should not be reused. More research is needed comparing peritonitis risk in dry day, CCPD, and CAPD patients. Patients on nightly PD (cycler at night with a dry day) may have a decreased risk of infection compared with those on CCPD (cycler at night plus a day fill), perhaps because the empty abdomen for part of the day enhances immune function (65). This issue also requires further study.EXIT-SITE CARE TO PREVENT PERITONITIS• Prevention of catheter infections (and thus perito-nitis) is the primary goal of exit-site care. Antibiotic protocols against S. aureus are effective in reducing the risk of S. aureus catheter infections (66–81). (Evidence)• All PD patients should use topical antibiotic eitherat the catheter exit site or intranasally or both(66,70,71,73–76,78,82). (Evidence)• Topical antibiotic ointments (as opposed to antibiotic creams) should not be used at the exit site of polyure-thane catheters (82). (Evidence)Routine exit-site care by the patient begins when theexit site is well healed; such care is part of the patient’s training. Water and antibacterial soap are recommendedby many centers. Use of an antiseptic to clean the exitsite is preferred in some programs, but the agent must benon-cytotoxic. The concentration of the cleansing agentsmust be carefully considered (83–87). For example, povi-done iodine is cytotoxic at concentrations greater than0.001%; hydrogen peroxide, at greater than 0.003%; sodium hypochlorite, at greater than 0.24%; and chlor-hexidine, at greater than 0.005% (83,84).Excellent hand hygiene is most important before any examination of the patient’s exit site by the patient,family members, and members of the health care team.The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends 70% alcohol-based hand rubs as the most effective hand cleansing agent (88). The quantity ap-plied to the hands should take at least 15 seconds ofhand rubbing to dry. Handwashing for 15 seconds with antimicrobial soap (4% chlorhexidine) is the next most effective method for hand cleansing. Visibly dirty hands require handwashing with soap. Polished nails doublethe risk of bacterial contamination on hands, and ar-tificial nails create a risk of bacterial contaminationthat is increased by a factor of 7 (88). Patients, healthcare givers, and patient helpers should all be aware ofproper hand hygiene protocols. If the water the patientuses is thought to have a high bacterial count, then theuse of alcohol hand hygiene is preferred to simply usingtap water.A number of protocols for the prevention of S. aureusPD-related infections have been examined. Prophylaxisusing daily application of mupirocin cream or ointmentto the skin around the exit site has been effective in reducing S. aureus exit-site infection and peritonitis ina number of reports (70,75,76,78,80,89). An observa-tional study in 740 incident PD patients showed that useof topical mupirocin was associated with a significant reduction in exit-site infection (0.168 vs 0.156 episodesper patient–year) and peritonitis (0.443 vs 0.339 epi-sodes per patient–year) (80). In a meta-analysis of ten studies (three RCTs and seven historical cohort studies)of mupirocin prophylaxis to prevent S. aureus infection,PD patients using prophylaxis had a 63% reduction in therisk of S. aureus infection—peritonitis being reduced by66% and exit-site infection by 62% (66).

Chemistry and Chemical Engineering,Shenzhen University,Shenzhen 518060,Guangdong Province,P .R.China ;2Hubei Institute of Aerospace Chemotechnology,Xiangfan 441003,Hubei Province,P .R.China )Abstract:The effects of proton transfer on the reaction between 2,4-diisocyanatotoluene (2,4-TDI)and active-hydrogen-containing amine compounds were calculated using density functional theory (DFT)at the B3LYP/6-31+G(d ,p )level.The energy barriers are significantly reduced when a methanol molecule serves as a proton transporter or a reactive catalyst,indicating that the labile hydrogen-containing compound plays a key role in accelerating the reaction rate and proton transfer.The catalytic addition of 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate follows a one-step mechanism,with a transition state characterized by a six-membered ring.However,the catalytic additions of 2,4-TDI and aromatic amines such as N -methyl-p -nitroaniline,diphenylamine,and 1,2-dihydro-2,2,4-trimethylquinoline involve two steps,with the first step as the rate-limiting step.The reactions between 2,4-TDI and aromatic amines have lower energy barriers than that between 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate.The aromatic amines are more active than methyl N -methylcarbamate in the reaction with 2,4-TDI,which is in a good agreement with experimental results.Key Words:Density functional theory;Proton transfer;2,4-Diisocyanatotoluene;Urethane formation1IntroductionPolyurethane materials are widely used in industry,aviation,shipping,and building construction in modern life.1Polyure-thanes are derived from isocyanates and alcohols in the pres-ence of reactive catalysts such as urea,2,3amino 4-6or hydroxyl 7-9groups.To improve the properties of the materials,additives34WANG Xiao-Xuan et al.:Proton Transfer in Reaction between2,4-Diisocyanatotoluene and Amine Compounds No.1were added into the reaction for stabilizing or scorch-inhibit-ing.10The investigation of reaction mechanism in multi-compo-nent urethane formation system is important for the production of purpose specific polyurethane materials.Since the reactions are quite complicated,the detailed reaction mechanism is still an open question.11The additions between isocyanates and alcohols are the main reactions in urethane formation.As the labile hydrogen of alcohol molecule transfers from the hydroxyl to the isocy-anate with the new C―O bond forming,urethane linkage RO(CO)NHR¹is formed.The urethane linkage has been report-ed to be a catalyst for the urethane formation by Ephraim12and Arnold13et al.,and the catalytic effect has been estimated in our previous work.14Similar to the alcohols,the urethane link-age RO(CO)NHR¹contains labile hydrogen on the amino, which can also react with isocyanate.Therefore,the addition between isocyanates and RO(CO)NHR¹linkage can become the dominant reaction in the cross-linking process of late reac-tion stage.However,the mechanisms of the reaction between isocyanates and RO(CO)NHR¹are not well studied.The commonly used amine additives containing labile hydro-gen on the amino can also react with the isocyanates.N-methyl-p-nitroaniline is widely used as blocking agents to prepare blocked isocyanates which are preferred in a typical heat-curable system.15 Upon heating,the fragile bond of the blocked isocyanates breaks and the isocyanates as well as N-methyl-p-nitroaniline are regener-ated.In addition,N-methyl-p-nitroaniline is also used as a thermal stabilizer in smokeless propellant.16Diphenylamine derivatives are commonly used as additives in the manufacture of polyurethanes to inhibit scorching in polyurethane foam.10,17Diphenylamine de-rivatives containing an active hydrogen may also react with isocy-anates to form urea products.1,2-Dihydro-2,2,4-trimethylquino-line(TMQ)is another aniline compound which is used as an anti-oxidant or antidegradant in producing urethane rubber and ny-lon.18,19Similar to diphenylamine,TMQ can also react with isocya-nates as it contains an active hydrogen.The urethane formations between isocyanates and alcohols have been studied by both experimental12,13,20,21and theoretical22-27 methods.Arnold et al.13pointed out that the reactions between2,4-diisocyanatotoluene(2,4-TDI)and methanol would exhibit anom-alous kinetics rather than the simple second-order relationship in the presence of other nucleophilic reagents,such as amines and their nucleophilic reaction products.Raspoet et al.25suggested that methanol dimer and trimer are involved in the reaction between isocyanic acid and methanol.Samuilov et al.22-24studied the reac-tion of methyl isocyanate with linear methanol associates at the B3LYP/6-311++G(df,p)level and found that the activity of the re-acting system increases with the degree of methanol association. The above works indicate that there exists a self-catalytic effect in the reactions between the isocyanates and the alcohols.In our pre-vious work,14Density functional theory(DFT)approach was car-ried out to study the proton transfer effects on the urethane forma-tion between2,4-TDI and methanol at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level.The energy barriers of the reactions are significantly re-duced with diphenylamine and methyl N-methylcarbamate mole-cule serving as a reactive catalyst.Moreover,all labile hydrogen-containing compounds play a key role in accelerating the reaction rate and the proton transfer.However,the reaction mechanism and reaction activity between isocyanate and amino groups are still not clear so far.DFT28,29is an effective approach to estimate molecular spec-trum,30investigate electron transfer,31evaluate binding energy,32 and study reaction mechanism.33In this paper,DFT approach was implemented to study the reaction between2,4-TDI and labile hydrogen-containing amine compounds.Methyl N-methyl-carbamate molecule was used to model the urethane linkage RO(CO)NHR¹for the saving of computational cost.The direct additions between2,4-TDI and methyl N-methylcarbamate,N-methyl-p-nitroaniline,diphenylamine as well as TMQ were the-oretically examined and the catalytic mechanisms were also in-vestigated with methanol serving as a proton transporter.The geometries of transition state,pre-reaction complex,and post-reaction complex were first optimized.Based on the optimized geometry,the energy barriers were then estimated.In addition, the charge populations were calculated by the natural bond or-bital(NBO)analysis.2Computational detailsAll the electronic structure calculations in this study were performed using the Gaussian09suit of programs.34The densi-ty functional theory with B3LYP/6-31+G(d,p)basis set35was used to optimize the geometries of the reactants,intermediates, transition states(TS),and products.Frequency analysis was used to verify the optimized geometries of TS,which are char-acterized by one imaginary frequency(IF)and stationary points with no imaginary frequency.36-38The intrinsic reaction coordinate(IRC)calculation was carried out to check the ener-gy profile connecting each TS to the two associated minima of the proposed mechanism.39Natural bond orbital analyses were also performed for all the optimized geometries to show the charge change in the proton transfer process.403Results and discussionThe optimized geometries of2,4-TDI,methanol,methyl N-methylcarbamate,N-methyl-p-nitroaniline,diphenylamine,and TMQ are presented in Fig.1.As listed in Table1,the corre-sponding energies were computed to estimate the energy barri-er of the reactions.3.1Reaction between2,4-TDI and methyl N-methylcarbamate3.1.1Direct addition between2,4-TDI and methyl N-methylcarbamateThe reaction mechanism of direct addition between2,4-TDI and methyl N-methylcarbamate is the same as that of the reac-tion between2,4-TDI and methanol.14As shown in Fig.2,the stable intermediate1is first formed between2,4-TDI and meth-35Acta Phys.-Chim.Sin .2014V ol.30yl N -methylcarbamate.Because of the three hydrogen bonds,N4―H3…N2(0.244nm),C5―H6…O7(0.267nm),and C8―H9…O10(0.264nm),the total energy of the intermediate 1is lowered by 8.79kJ ∙mol -1in comparison with separated reac-tants.The amino group of the methyl N -methylcarbamate inter-acts with the N =C bond of the isocyanate and the transition state TS2characterized by a four-membered ring is formed.Due to the strong steric effect of the four-membered ring,the energy of TS2lies 151.73kJ ∙mol -1above the energy of the sep-arated reactants,and the energy barrier of the reaction comes out to be 160.52kJ ∙mol -1as presented in Table 2.In addition,H3of amino group of methyl N -methylcarbamate possesses 0.511(atomic charge)which is larger than 0.5,it indicates that the reaction involves the proton transfers from amino group to the isocyanate group of 2,4-TDI.With the proton H3transfer,the new N2―H3and C1―N4bonds form and the old N4―H3bond breaks.Finally the urethane product 5is formed.With no catalyst,the direct addition between 2,4-TDI and methyl N-Compound name 2,4-TDI methanolmethyl N -methylcarbamate N -methyl-p -nitroaniline

CompoundsNo.1methylcarbamate shows a high energy barrier of 160.52kJ ∙mol -1,which indicates that the reaction can hardly occur at room temperature.3.1.2Addition between 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate with one methanol as a catalyst As the reaction between 2,4-TDI and methanol happens via self-catalysis,14the alcohols may catalyze the reaction between 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate in the system of ure-thane formation.Methanol molecules were used to evaluate the catalytic effect on the side reactions between 2,4-TDI and amine compounds.With the three strong hydrogen bonds (N6―H5…O4(0.197nm)and O4―H3…N2(0.213nm)as well as C7―H8…O9(0.250nm))between 2,4-TDI,methanol and methyl N -methylcar-bamate,the stable intermediate 4firstly forms as illustrated in Fig.3.The energy of intermediate 4is largely reduced by 31.74kJ ∙mol -1in comparison with the separated reactants.As the reaction proceeds,the transition state TS5characterized by a six-mem-bered ring is formed between the reactants and methanol mole-cule,where the hydrogen atoms H3and H5are obviously shared by the N2of isocyanate,O4of hydroxy group,and N6of the ami-no group.The transition state TS5lies 62.80kJ ∙mol -1above the energy of the separated reactants.The IRC path calculation showsthat H5first transfers from N6of the amino to O4of the hydroxy of methanol,meanwhile H3transfers from O4to N2of the isocya-nate group,then the new N ―H and C ―O bonds form.Following the proton transfer,product intermediate 6stabilized by two hydro-gen bonds forms as shown in Fig.3.In comparison with the energy of pre-association complex 4,the energy barrier of the catalytic reaction is estimated to be 94.54kJ ∙mol -1as illustrated in Table 2.Obviously,the energy barrier is largely reduced by including a methanol molecule,which shows hugely catalytic effect on the proton transfer.The methanol molecule serves as a proton donor to the isocyanate group and a proton acceptor to the amine.With a methanol mol-ecule serving as a proton transporter,the reaction rate between 2,4-TDI and methyl N-methylcarbamate is significantly accel-erated.However,the energy barrier of 94.54kJ ∙mol -1is still much higher than that of the catalytic reaction (51.41kJ ∙mol -1)between 2,4-TDI and alcohols.14This indicates that the cross-linking reaction between 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarba-mate in urethane formation mainly occurs in the late stage of the reaction process when the alcohols are largely consumed.3.2Reaction between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -nitroanilineIn the polyurethane industry,N -methyl-p -nitroaniline is com-monly used as blocking agents to prepare blocked isocyanates,which are preferred in a typical heat-curable system.N -methyl-p -nitroaniline is a kind of aromatic amine with a hydrogen at-om on the amino group which can react with the isocyanate group of 2,4-TDI.3.2.1Direct addition between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -nitroanilineAs displayed in Fig.4,the calculations show that the hydro-gen bond N4―H3…N2(0.237nm)and the weak hydrogen bond C5―H6…N4(0.286nm)first form between the 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -nitroaniline which make the pre-association complex 7stable with an energy of -6.78kJ ∙mol -1comparedTable 2Energy barriers for the reactions between 2,4-TDI and amines in gas phaseReaction TDI+methyl N -methylcarbamate TDI+N -methyl-p

-methylcarbamate with one methanol as acatalyst37Acta Phys.-Chim.Sin .2014V ol.30to the separated reactants.Similar to the direct reaction be-tween 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate,the transition state TS8is featured by a four-membered ring.Due to the strong steric effect of the four-membered ring,the transition state TS8lies 136.36kJ ∙mol -1above the reactants.With the proton transfer from the amino to the isocyanate group,the product complex 9is yielded,which lies -43.33kJ ∙mol -1be-low the energy of the separated reactants.The energy barrier of direct addition between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -nitroaniline finally reaches 143.14kJ ∙mol -1com-pared to the energy of the pre-association intermediate 7as list-ed in Table 2.3.2.2Addition between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -nitroaniline with one methanol as a catalystSimilar to the catalytic reaction of 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate,the addition between 2,4-TDI and N-methyl-p -nitroaniline may also be catalyzed by an active hydrogen-containing compound such as methanol.IRC path calculations were performed to the catalytic reaction between 2,4-TDI and N-methyl-p-nitroaniline,the process of the reaction shows dif-ferences.The catalytic reaction comes out to be a two-step re-action as shown in Fig.5.A pre-association complex 10is first formed between 2,4-TDI,methanol and N-methyl-p -nitroaniline.As depicted in Fig.5,a hy-drogen-bond network is formed,which is composed of the O4―H3…N2(0.218nm),the N6―H5…O4(0.200nm),and the C7―H8…O9(0.275nm)hydrogen bonds.Due to the strong hydrogen-bond network,the energy of structure 10is reduced by 37.89kJ ∙mol -1.With the breaking of the weak hydrogen bond C7―H8…O9,the isocyanate,amino,and hydroxyl groups lie in the same plane and the TS11with one imaginary frequency forms.TS11contains two strong hydrogen bonds,the O4―H3…N2(0.188nm)and the N6―H5…O4(0.189nm).Even though the energy of the structure can decrease owing to the formation of the hydro-gen bonds,the total energy of TS11is still increased by 55.10kJ ∙mol -1compared to structure 10due to the strong steric effect.As the reaction proceeds,the intermediate 12forms.The energy of structure 12is slightly lowered by 2.72kJ ∙mol -1due to the much tighter hydrogen bonds of O4―H3…N2(0.185nm)and N6―H5…O4(0.180nm).Intermediate 12is verified to be stable mini-ma with no imaginary frequency.In the second step of the reaction,transition state TS13featured by a six-membered ring was formed with the two hydrogen atoms H3and H5shared by N2of the isocyanate and O4of the hydroxy group as well as N6of the amino,which gives rise to an energy barrier of 31.40kJ ∙mol -1as listed in Table 2.By the analysis of the vibrational mode of TS13at the imaginary frequency and the IRC calculations,one found that the proton H3transfers from O4to N2,meanwhile the H5from N6to O4.With the proton transfer along the hydrogen-bond network,the N6of the amino group moves to the C1of the isocyanate,the new C ―N bond forms,and the product complex 14is yielded as shown in Fig.5.In the addition between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -nitroani-line with one methanol as a catalyst,the energy barrier of the first step is 55.10kJ ∙mol -1while that of the second step is 31.40kJ ∙mol -1.It is clearly that the first step is the rate-limit-ing step in the whole process of the reaction.3.3Reaction between 2,4-TDI and diphenylamine Diphenylamine derivatives are commonly used as additives in the manufacture of polyurethanes to inhibit scorching.Di-phenylamine is also a kind of aromatic amine with a hydrogen atom on the amino group which may react with 2,4-TDI as N -methyl-p -nitroaniline.3.3.1Direct addition between 2,4-TDI anddiphenylamineThe mechanism of direct addition between 2,4-TDI and di-phenylamine is the same as that of reaction between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -nitroaniline.As shown in Fig.6,a four-mem-bered ring is formed between the two reactant molecules with the hydrogen atom H3shared by N2of the isocyanate groupFig.4Profile for the relative energy of direct addition between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p-nitroaniline38WANG Xiao-Xuan et al .:Proton Transfer in Reaction between 2,4-Diisocyanatotoluene and Amine CompoundsNo.1and N4of the amino.An energy of 130.25kJ ∙mol -1of the opti-mized structure of TS16is estimated in comparison with the separated reactants.A high energy barrier of 136.91kJ ∙mol -1is obtained for the direct reaction between 2,4-TDI and diphenyl-amine as listed in Table 2.3.3.2Addition between 2,4-TDI and diphenylamine withone methanol as a catalystThe catalytic reaction between 2,4-TDI and diphenylamine has been reported in the previous work.14However,the reac-tion was found to be a two-step reaction by a more detailed cal-culation as depicted in Fig.7.Starting from the prereaction complex 18,TS19characterized by one imaginary frequency is formed.Structure 19contains two strong hydrogen bonds O4―H3…N2(0.189nm)and N6―H5…O4(0.191nm),the isocya-nate,amino and hydroxy groups lie in a same plane.The IRC calculations reach the intermediate 20,the product of the first step reaction.The energy of 19.93kJ ∙mol -1is evaluated for the complex 20,which is 4.06kJ ∙mol -1lower than that of TS19.As the reaction continues,transition state TS21is formed with a relative energy of 42.62kJ ∙mol -1.The H3and H5in the six-membered ring are shared by the three reactants.The vibra-tional mode of TS21at the imaginary frequency shows that the proton H3transfers from O4to N2,meanwhile the H5from N6to O4.With the proton transfer along the hydrogen-bondFig.5Profile for the relative energy of addition between 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p-nitroaniline with one methanol as a catalystFig.6Profile for the relative energy of direct addition between 2,4-TDI anddiphenylamine39Acta Phys.-Chim.Sin .2014V ol.30network,N6of the amino group and C1of the isocyanate get closer and form a new C ―N bond,and finally the product complex 22is yielded.In the catalytic addition between 2,4-TDI and diphenylamine,the first step is the rate-limiting step in the whole reaction with the energy barrier of 57.36kJ ∙mol -1compared to 22.69kJ ∙mol -1of the second step.3.4Reaction between 2,4-TDI and TMQ3.4.1Direct addition between 2,4-TDI and TMQWith the same mechanism as that of reaction between 2,4-TDI and N-methyl-p -nitroaniline,the direct addition between 2,4-TDI and TMQ experiences a four-membered transition state 24with the H3shared by the isocyanate and amino groups as shown in Fig.8.The energy of TS24is estimated to be 128.74kJ ∙mol -1compared to the separated reactants and the energy barrier of the direct reaction comes out to be 131.75kJ ∙mol -1.3.4.2Addition between 2,4-TDI and TMQ with onemethanol as a catalystSimilar to the catalytic reaction of 2,4-TDI and N -methyl-p -ni-troaniline,the catalytic addition between 2,4-TDI and TMQ also goes through two stages as shown in Fig.9.At the beginning of the reaction,a pre-association complex 26between 2,4-TDI,metha-nol and TMQ is first formed.The energy is lowered by 27.26kJ ∙mol -1as a result of the formation of three hydrogen bonds O4―H3…N2(0.214nm)and N6―H5…O4(0.211nm)as well as C7―H8…O4(0.261nm).As the reaction proceeds,transition state 27is obtained.In TS27,the isocyanate,amino and hydroxyl group are in a same plane and the energy rises up to 18.76kJ ∙mol -1.By running the IRC calculation,the product of the first step is opti-mized as complex 28with two strong hydrogen bonds of O4―H3…N2(0.200nm)and N6―H5…O4(0.185nm)as well as theatomic attraction between C1of the isocyanate and N6of the ami-no group.The energy of complex 28is reduced by an energy of 11.93kJ ∙mol -1in comparison with that of TS27.Starting from the intermediate 28,the transition state 29of the second stage is char-acterized by a six-membered ring with the two hydrogen atoms H3and H5shared by N2of the isocyanate and O4of the hydroxy as well as N6of the amino group.With H3transfer from O4to N2and H5from N6to O4,the product complex 30forms finally.In the catalytic addition between 2,4-TDI and TMQ,the first step is the rate-limiting step with the energy barrier of 46.02kJ ∙mol -1compared to 24.33kJ ∙mol -1of the second step.As listed in Table 2,the direct additions between 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate,N -methyl-p -nitroaniline,di-phenylamine as well as TMQ show high energy barriers of 160.52,143.14,136.91,and 131.75kJ ∙mol -1,respectively.The methanol catalytic reaction between 2,4-TDI and methyl N -methylcarbamate follows a one-step mechanism with an ener-gy barrier of 94.54kJ ∙mol -1,while the catalytic additions be-tween 2,4-TDI and aromatic amines such as N -methyl-p -ni-troaniline,diphenylamine as well as TMQ follow a

thematic proto-roles and argument selection

thematic proto-roles and argument selection

Thematic Proto-Roles and Argument SelectionDavid DowtyOhio State UniversityAs a novel attack on the perennially vexing questions of the theoretical status of thematicroles and the inventory of possible roles, this paper defends a strategy of basing a accountsof roles on more unified domains of linguistic data than have been used in the past tomotivate roles, addressing in particular the problem of argument selection(principlesdetermining which roles are associated with which grammatical relations). It is concludedthat the best theory for describing this domain is not a traditional system of discrete roles(Agent, Patient, Source, etc.) but a theory in which the only roles are two cluster-conceptscalled Proto-Agent and Proto-Patient, each characterized by a set of verbal entailments:an argument of a verb may bear either of the two proto-roles (or both) to varying degrees,according the number of entailments of each kind the verb gives it. Both fine-grained andcourse-grained classes of verbal arguments (corresponding to traditional thematic roles andother classes as well) follow automatically, as do desired "role hierarchies". By examiningoccurrences of the "same" verb with different argument configurations (e.g. two forms ofpsych predicates and object-oblique alternations as in the familiar spray/load class), it canalso be argued that proto-roles act as defaults in the learning of lexical meanings. AreProto-Role categories manifested elsewhere in language or as cognitive categories? If so,they might be a means of making grammar acquisition easier for the child, might explaincertain other typological and acquisitional observations, and may lead to an account ofcontrasts between unaccusative and unergative intransitive verbs that does not rely onderiving unaccusatives from underlying direct objects.1. IntroductionThere is perhaps no concept in modern syntactic and semantic theory which is so often involved in so wide a range of contexts, but on which there is so little agreement as to the nature and definition of the concept, as thematic role(or thematic relation) and its derivative,theta-role in Government-Binding Theory (GB). In addition to the "argument-indexing function in GB (see below), thematic roles have been invoked in the statement of multifarious syntactic generalizations in that and in other syntactic theories, and the existence of thematic roles is so taken for granted that psycholinguists now attempt to study their role in mental processing experimentally (Carlson and Tanenhaus 1988, Stowe 1989), and an introductory text in formal semantics (Chierchia and McConnell-Ginet 1990) offers a technique for formalizing roles while presupposing their necessity in a linguistic theory.Yet apart from some syntactic correlates of thematic roles, there is in fact a notable absence of consensus as to what thematic roles are (cf. below). At best, they are obviously creatures of the syntax-semantics interface, and thus require a sound semantic theoretical basis as well as a syntactic one (and mutually consistentones) in order to be considered respectable parts of a linguistic theory. But at worst, appeal to them can be a confusion of notions from the syntactic, semanticand pragmatic domains, or a "thinly disguised wild card to meet the exigencies of syntax" (Jackendoff 87:371). Despite the mention of Thematic roles in the Chierchia and McConnell-Ginet text, they have hardly been studied at all informal semantics1, which seems to have gotten by up to this point without any significant purpose for them to serve. Ray Jackendoff, the only semanticist whohas studied the concept extensively (non-model-thoeretically) and who is rituallycited by syntacticians at their first mention of the notion, has evolved a detailed understanding of thematic roles within his own theoretical framework (Jackendoff 1972, 1976, 1983, 1987) that is clearly quite different from and inconsistent withthat of GB or of many current syntacticians (Jackendoff 1987).Though the term thematic relation(later role) was introduced by Gruber (1965) andmade widely known by Jackendoff (1972), as semantic categories they obviously corresponded to a great extent to the (semantic)Deep Cases of Fillmore’s contemporaneous Case Grammar (1966, 1968) --- and this in turn harks back toideas of structuralists such as Frank Blake (1930), and ultimately to Panini’s karakas--- but Deep Cases played a quite different part within his theory fromthat of thematic roles for Gruber-Jackendoff or Ú-Roles do in GB. Chomsky (1981: 35), in introducing Ú-roles into GB and citing precedents for the idea, claimed thematic roles such as Agent had been primitives of Donald Davidson’s event-logic (Davidson 1967a), but he was in error: Davidson did not analyze events in termsof Agent and Patient but in fact rejected H ector Caten~eda’s suggestion (Casten~eda 1967) that the Davidsonian event analysis be modified to do so (in Davidson 1967b:125)2. Though many linguists seem to assume that linguistic theory should include a finite (and short) language-universal canon of thematic roles (that includes the familiar members such as Agent, Patient, Goal, Source, Theme, Experiencer, Instrumental, etc.), no one that I know of has ever attempted to propose a complete list3. There is disagreement even on the most familiar roles(e.g. whether Theme, usually "something that moves or changes state", can be1The exceptions I know of being Chierchia (1984), Carlson (1984), and Dowty (1989), the last discussed below.2That is, what Davidson did propose was that adjuncts (temporal, locative and adverbial modifiers) were predicates of an existentially-qualified event variable in logical form, but subject and object were not: they are traditional "arguments", related to the event variable by the n-place predicate denoted by the verb.3The most comprehensive list I have seen is also the earliest: Blake (1930), who argued that semantically-defined "case relationships" (clearly a similar notion to today’s thematic role-types) are "numerous but not infinite; they are not indefinite and subjective, depending on the lucubrations of the individual mind, but objective, definite, and determined once for all by general grammatical principles and the laws of thought", offered as a "pioneer study" an organized system of 87 temporal and locative roles and 26 other roles, includ-ing such subsequently ignored roles as additional("he gave him a sum of money besides the cattle"),substitu-tive("he gave me promises instead of money") and similative("he barked like a dog").’assigned by’ a stative predicate; and whether Theme is the same role as Patient or whether they are distinct), and new candidates for Thematic Roles are being proposed all the time (e.g.Figure and Ground in Talmy (1985a),Neutral in Rozwadowska 1988),Landmark in Jackendoff (1982), even Subject in Baker 1985).A paper such as this cannot begin to do justice to all the diverse literature on the subject, and a warning to this effect to the reader, plus apologies to the authorswho are omitted or overlooked, are hereby issued.4Among the various understandings of thematic roles, we can distinguish two kinds.What I will call the argument-indexing view of thematic roles is demanded by theÚ-Criterion of GB: each NP argument of a predicate is assigned exactly one Ú-Role,and the same Ú-Role is not assigned to two NP arguments of the same predicate (Chomsky 1981:36, 139). By clear implication, the Ú-Roles that Chomsky originallyhad in mind to fulfill this criterion were the familiar Agent, Patient, etc. from Gruber, Jackendoff, and others. By virtue of the Ú-Criterion, Ú-roles served (originally at least) two main purposes in the GB theory, (i) distinguishing "real", semantically contentful arguments of a predicate from dummy arguments such as itand there, and (ii) helping to keep track of identity and distinctness of NPs as particular semantic arguments of a predicate during the course of a derivation.From the structure of the early Case Grammar theory (Fillmore 1968), it is obviousthat Deep Cases also served an argument-indexing function there, since in Deep Structure each NP argument bears exactly one case label (Agentive, Instrumental, Dative, Locative, etc.), and subsequent syntactic transformations are stated in termsof these labels, not arbitrary or tree-structurally positioned NPs, and this seems to presuppose that there is not more than one Agentive (etc.) NP per clause. (Thiswas modified later: cf. below.)In order for such systems to work, in an account in which the roles Agent, Theme, Goal, etc. are given explicit semantic content, the meanings of all natural language predicates must turn out to be of a very particular sort: forevery verb in the language, what the verb semantically entails about each of its arguments must permit us to assign the argument, clearly and definitely, to some official thematic role or other--it cannot be permitted to hover over two roles,or seem to "fall in the cracks" between roles---and what the meaning entails aboutevery argument must always be distinct enough that two arguments clearly notfall under the same role definition. This is a very strong empirical claim about possible meanings of natural language predicates, and, as soon as we begin to try tobe precise about exactly what Agent, Patient, etc. "mean", all too subject to4In this paper I have tried to follow the practice of citing papers in which, in my view, the essence of a proposal or insight was first made, but not necessarily later discussions of the insight (under the same or different terminology) unless I believe they contributed something new that is relevant here. Hence relatively more references are made to early literature by Fillmore, Jackendoff and their contemporaries, and relatively fewer references to recent literature on roles, than is sometimes found elsewhere.difficulties and apparent counterexamples.Doubts as to whether the familiar short lists of Roles/Deep Cases (or refinements thereof) would ever really work this way already arose in the Case Grammar days (e.g. Cruse 1973, H uddleston 1970, Mellema 1974, Fillmore 1971a, and many others). Later GB writers saw the danger too, and proposed to circumvent the problem by refraining from committing themselves to the traditional roles, whatI will henceforth call thematic role types, and instead invoked individual thematic roles---these terms from (Dowty 1989)5. That is, we simply call the thematic role of the subject of the verb hit the "hitter role", that of the subjectof kill the "killer role", of build the "builder role", and so on, with no assumptionmade that there is one thematic role type common to these arguments (Marantz 1984, van Riemsdijk and Williams 1986)---though the possibility that role typesalso exist need not be ruled out, either. Trivially then, there will be enough distinct Ú-roles around (i.e., the individual roles) to permit the Ú-Criterion to be satisfied, i.e. to preserve the argument-indexing view of thematic roles.Nevertheless, many syntacticians working within the GB framework have continued to appeal to the traditional thematic role types to state syntactic generalizations (Rappaport and Levin 1988, Nishigauchi 1984, Belletti and Rizzi 1986, etc.). And appeal to a particular hierarchy of thematic roles, such as Nishigauchi (1984) does in stating control principles (i.e. Source >... ), requiresALL arguments of predicates (at least those that ever occur in control relationships), to have roles mentioned in the hierarchy, i.e. a role-type, not an individual role. Thus for such hypotheses, it IS a crucial question whether there isa small set of distinguishable role-types that effectively index all arguments.In contrast to the argument-indexing view, Jackendoff’s research on thematic rolesis of a fundamentally different kind. For him, thematic relations (the term he prefers to roles) are most importantly notions of conceptual structure, as elucidatedin Jackendoff (1983, 1987), rather than basically syntactic or interface notions;they are not theoretical primitives but are defined by particular configurations of primitive operators such as GO, STAY and CAUSE in conceptual structure; one discovers their nature and distribution empirically by looking at certain lexicaland syntactic patterns in natural language in relation to their meanings, e.g. the distribution of prepositions in particular (though not, perhaps surprisingly, by psychological experiment). And the thematic roles one finds by this method do notby any means turn out to obey the theta-criterion: some verbs turn out to assignmore than one role to the same argument, others assign the same role to two different arguments, and some verbs "have" thematic roles that they do not assignto any NP, e.g.to butter has both a Theme and a Goal role, but the Theme is5For convenience, I will continue to use Thematic Role for role types, when no confusion between role types and individual roles can arise."completely expressed by the verb" (1987:387). Whether all arguments of all verbs receive one of the thematic relations he has mentioned may not be stated, but his view of roles would not seem to require that they all do. In short, Jackendoff’s interest in thematic roles arises purely from his desire to describe semantic patterns in lexical subcategorization and in syntax (that to him reveal conceptual structure), not to index arguments, and that thematic biuniqueness does not seem to result is of no concern. The individual-thematic-role escape hatch is of no interest to the Jackendoffs and Fillmores (or to this writer), for it ignores precisely the semantic generalization of role-type across verbs that gives the notion its interest. It should be added that Fillmore’s later work on Case Grammar also permitted more than one case per argument (Fillmore 1977) (and of course he had never advocated a one-to-one relation between Deep (semantic structure) Cases and surface constituents).Alas, this paper is not going to solve all these problems and does not purport to offer a theory of thematic roles that serves everyone’s needs perfectly---nor does it attempt to demolish the notion once and for all. Its goal are more modest: (1) to lay out some methodological groundwork for studying thematic roles with the tools of model-theoretic semantics, and to propose some new strategies for attacking the area one step at a time, (2) to propose one new account of thematic roles (not unrelated to some other recent proposals) that seems to have merit at the "first step" in the strategy, and (3) perhaps most important of all, to make syntacticians and all linguists recognize the dangers of continuing to take this notion for granted and of assuming thematic roles are as well-motivated as phonemes or phrase-markers, and to encourage others, by this one example, to invent and explore other novel theories of thematic roles. And though this is not a psycholinguistics article and I am not a psycholinguist, I believe the linguist making a theoretical proposal about an area such as this has the responsibility to point out what psycholinguistic implications his proposal could have (the extent is it correct) and what questions it raises; thus the paper will include some speculations of this kind.As is customary in model-theoretic semantics, I begin with the question of what logical type thematic roles should have, summarizing briefly the results of Dowty (1989) in §2. As the traditional empirical difficulties with arriving at a well-motivated set of role-types (most of all an argument-indexing set) may not be well-known today, I survey these in §3, including some pitfalls of misidentifying roles. It is argued in §4. that a fundamental methodological problem is that we have no agreement on what kind of linguistic evidence is appropriate for identifying a role-type correctly, and as a remedy, a strategy is defended of examining first the domain of argument-selection alone. As a further constraint on legitimate kinds of roles, I argue in §5 that event-dependent but not perspective-dependent roles be admitted. The inventory of role-types must, in view of the definitions in §4, be widened to involve a new kind ofrole,Incremental Theme(§6.). With this preparation, I introduce a new theory of roles, in while roles are "prototypes", here called thematic proto-roles, rather than discrete categories (§7); the argument-selection principles for this theory and their workings are discussed in §8. Most interesting for this account of roles are three cases of subtly-contrasting argument selection: partially symmetric interactive predicates (§9.1), psychological predicates (§9.2), and the spray-load alternations (§l.3). Comparisons of the present view of roles with related proposals in the literature are made in §10. Some psycholinguistic implications that this account suggests for the place of thematic roles in the acquisition of grammar and of lexical meanings are considered in §11, and finally, what this account might imply about the so-called "unaccusative" phenomenon is considered in §12. The paper concludes with a brief summary of its proposals in §13.2. The Logical Type of Thematic RolesBecause this paper uses model-theoretic semantics as its main investigative tool, we should begin our semantic investigation by asking what logical type thematic roles must be given in a formal semantic theory, in order for our theory to model the properties linguists have traditionally attributed to them. As Dowty (1989) is devoted to that question, I summarize here only very briefly the results of that paper and refer the reader to it for further details.From the semantic point of view, the most general notion of thematic role (type) is a set of entailments of a group of predicates with respect to one of the arguments of each.(Thus a thematic role type is a kind of second-order property, a property of multi-placed predicates indexed by their argument-positions.)For example, consider the subject argument of the two-place predicates x murders y, x nominates y , x interrogates y: entailments they all share include that x does a volitional act, that x moreover intends this to be the kind of act named by the verb, that x causes some event to take place involving y(y dies,y acquires a nomination,y answers questions--or at least hears them), that x moves or changes externally (i.e. not just mentally). The first entailment is not shared by kills (traffic accidents also kill), the second not by convinces(once can convince, or kill, inadvertently but cannot murder inadvertently), the third not by looks at, the last not by understands. By entailment, I mean the standard logical sense: one formula entails another if in every possible situation (in every model) in which the first is true, the second is true also. Since we are discussing entailments of "non-logical" predicates, I take this to be the same as an analytic implications (for which I also use the term lexical entailment: the implication follows from the meaning of the predicate in question alone). That is, a role-type like "Agent" is defined semantically as whatever entailments of verbs about NP referents are shared by the verbal argument-positions we label with the term "Agent" (and excludes whatever is entailed for those arguments that differs from one verb to the next); this sidesteps the question of whether "Agent" has a more "atomic" meaning underlying it, but it iss precisely the point here to have an exact way of semantically characterizing roles that avoids such a presupposition, that can describe a possibly "arbitrary" as well as a "natural" role type, so that we can investigate and compare theories which do and don’t involve the traditional notions.Some of the lexical entailments that will be under discussion are perhaps also correctly described as presuppositions (in which case they correspond to the selectional restrictions of Chomsky (1965), but I assume it is now uncontroversial that these are correctly analyzed as semantic properties, not syntactic properties, of words). But the difference between presupposition and lexical entailments will not be important for our purposes.This definition has the advantage that it is compatible with a theory, like Jackendoff’s (1972, 1987) or Foley and van Valin’s (1984), in which thematic role-types are defined by certain configurations of the (explicitly or implicitly interpreted) logical structures into which natural language predicates are translated1; with a theory, like Zaenen’s (1988) or Rozwadowska’s (1988), in which thematic roles are sets of semantic features (as long as we can fix a definite set of entailments, within some formal semantic framework, to correspond to each such feature of those accounts), as well as a theory in which there is no internal "structure" to lexical meanings and in which entailments of lexical meanings are all listed independently (e.g. by meaning postulates) and do not completely "cross-classify" by semantic primitives in any neat way as structuralist semantic theories assume lexical meaning does. It is also neutral as to whether thematic roles are argument-indexing or not.2Yet the definition allows us to be as precise as possible in describing the substantive semantic content of thematic roles: as precise or more so, I believe, than any kind of current semantic theory does. When "entailments" are mentioned below, the reader should keep in mind that this notion is neutral among these various theoretical views.1See Dowty (1979) for a demonstration of how English predicates can be interpreted (compositionally within asentence) by translating them into a "logical form" or "semantic representation" where they are decomposed intoelements such as CAUSE and BECOME, these translations then being part of a formal model-theoreticinterpretation of English.2Dowty (1989) also points out that if there is a set of effectively argument-indexing thematic role types for allpredicates of a language, then an expressively equivalent language is one in which n-place predicates arerepresented in the "neo-Davidsonian" way with such predicates and their arguments replaced by event-predicateswith thematic roles as relations between events and participants, e.g. in which "Mary kissed John yesterday" isrepresented by (ii) rather than (i):(i) yesterday[kiss(Mary, John)](ii) Ee[kissing(e) & Agent-of(John,e) & Patient-of(Mary,e) & yesterday(e)](but of course this conversion is not possible if thematic roles are not effectively indexing). However, it is not clearwhat kind of conceptual or computational advantage, if any, (ii) achieves, once lexical entailments are also takenaccount of (Dowty 1989). The view of thematic roles as second-order properties of relations indexed by argumentis equally adequate whether thematic roles are indexing are not.3. Traditional Problems in Identifying Thematic Roles and Using Them to Distinguish Arguments3.1 Role Fragmentations and Unclear BoundariesOf various examples that might be cited of the question how "finely" to divide thematic roles, perhaps Agent is most striking: this is one of the most oft-cited and in some sense a very intuitive role, but it is one of the hardest to pin down. Jackendoff (1983) divides it into Agent vs. Actor, but D. A. Cruse (1973) split it four ways,(1) a.Volitive"an act of the will is stated or implied" (p. 18).b.Effective"exerts a force...because of its position, movement, etc." (p.19)c.Initiative"initiation of an action by giving a command" (p. 20)d.Agentive"performed by an object [living things, certain types ofmachine, and natural agents] regarded as using its own energyin carrying out the action." (p. 21)and cites syntactic tests to isolate each new role type. Possibly Lakoff (1977: 244) offered the largest fragmentation of Agency ever proposed, in which there were fourteen supposedly distinct characteristics (though properly speaking, some of Lakoff’s characteristics involved the RELATIONSHIP between agent and patient, not agency by itself). The dilemma is, if we adopt the finer categorization of roles to achieve certain distinctions, do we thereby not miss generalizations by not being able to refer to the grosser Agent category as well?Linguists have often found it hard to agree on and motivate the location of the boundary between role types. The sentences in (2) show one example of the difficulties that can be involved:(2) a. I walked a mileI swam 30 meters,I slept twelve hours.b. This weighs five poundsThe piano measures 6’5".It took me an hour to grade the papers.The book cost me $5.c. I paid $5 (this amount) (?this $5-bill) for the book.The book cost me $5 (?this amount) (#this $5-bill).I bought the book for $5 (this amount) (#this $5-bill)d. I paid for the book with ?$5 (#this amount) (this $5-bill).I bought the book with ?$5 (#this amount) (this $5-bill).e. I’ll trade this record for the book.These sentences may involve a little-studied thematic role that has been be called Extent (Andrews 1985). Note first that in (2a) the phrases a mile, 30 meters, 12 hours are adjuncts rather than subcategorized elements (they may be freely omitted without lose of acceptability or, apparently, change in the meaning of the rest of the sentence) and have an "adverbial function". Can adjuncts, or adverbs themselves, be assigned a thematic roles? Fillmore (1988) said yes, but there would seem to be room for doubt. If we can assign measures of distance or weight a thematic role, how about measures of rate, as in He drove the car 50 m.p.h.?But then where do we stop? E.g. does too fast have a thematic role in He drove the car too fast, or does quickly in She walks quickly?On the other hand, similar NPs are clearly subcategorized argument NPs in (2b), so surely they ARE assigned thematic roles here, and their meaning seems quite parallel to (2a): If we say these NPs have thematic roles in (2b) but not in (2a) (contrary to Fillmore, I presume), then it seems we ignore the semantic parallelism and say that it is a matter of syntactic form, not the meaning of a sentence alone, that determines what thematic roles are involved. (Perhaps indeed this is the correct conclusion, but the concept of thematic role becomes quite a different one if the conclusion is accepted rather than rejected, and if we cannot use meaning alone to decide thematic assignment, then we need to justify which syntactic differences we allow to indicate role differences and which we do not.)What do we make of the differences between (2c) and (2d)?five dollars and this amount, like a mile, etc., seem to refer to an measurement of monetary quantity (in the abstract), while this five-dollar bill refers to a concrete object, a piece of paper that has such a value. So perhaps the correct thing to say is that the verb forms in (c) make reference to the measurement (and have the Extent role) while those in (d) refer to a physical quantity of currency (and have some other role, say Theme, parallel to (e)). The break, however, is not quite that clean. One can also say That bad investment cost me my house in the country(where my house...is not merely an Extent NP). And in the temporal domain, we have John spent Tuesday writing the paper as well as John spent an hour washing the car(suggesting Tuesday can express Extent, though cf.#It took John Tuesday to wash the car).But the confusing part is about (c) and (d) is that in the common commercial transaction there exist BOTH a concrete pile of currency that changes hands AND a particular measurement of value that this currency has (except that in purchase by check or credit card, the former may be absent in concrete form, yet presumably there is still a "virtual Theme" of currency). So, we wonder, by analogy to Jackendoff’s。

a r X i v :h e p -l a t /0605005v 4 21 M a y 2008Study of Possible Proton-Antiproton Hexaquark State in Lattice QCDMushtaq LoanInternational School,Jinan University,Huangpu Road West,Guangzhou 510632,P.R.China(Dated:May 21,2008)We have used standard techniques of lattice quantum chromodynamics to look for evidence of the spin-zero six quark flavour singlet state (J P C =0−+)observed by BES Collaboration,and to determine the splitting between the mass of the possible proton-antiproton and the mass of two protons,its ing the various interpolating fields we find indications that for sufficiently light quarks proton-antiproton is slightly above the 2m p threshold.The lattice resonance signal of binding observed near the physical and continuum regimes do not support the existence of proton-antiproton state as a spin-zero hexaquark state.PACS numbers:11.15.Ha,12.38.Gc,11.15.MeRecently,the BES Collaboration in Beijing observed a near threshold enhancement in the proton-antiproton (p ¯p )mass spectrum from J/ψ→γp ¯p radiative decay [1].Fitting the enhancement with an S -wave Breit-Wigner resonance function,results in peak mass at M =1859+310(stat)+525(sys)with a total width Γ<30MeV /c 2.With a P -wave fit,the peak mass is very close to the threshold,M =1876.4±0.9MeV and the total width is very narrow,Γ=4.6±1.8MeV.This discovery is subse-quently confirmed by the Belle Collaboration in differentreactions of the decays B +→K +p ¯p [2]and ¯B 0→D 0p ¯p [3],showing enhancements in the p ¯p invariant mass dis-tribution near 2m p .Such a mass and width does not match that of any known particle [4].Theoretical existence of possible proton-antiproton bound state has long been speculated in quark model and conventional nucleon potentials [5,6,7,8].However,it was only in a very recent study,made by Yan et al us-ing the Skyrme model [9],that predicted mass and the width close with the experiment.Experimentally,the quantum numbers of p ¯p (1857)are not well determined yet.The photon polar angle distribution was found con-sistent with 1+cos 2θγsuggesting the angular momentum is very likely to be J =0.Making full use of general sym-metry requirement and available experimental informa-tion the corresponding spin and parity are J P C =0−+[10].In this letter we report first quenched lattice QCD calculation capable of studying the p ¯p (1859).In contrast with conventional baryons and mesons,it is difficult to deal with q m ¯q n (m +n ≥3)states in lattice QCD.For example,a q 3¯q 3state can be decomposed into a couple of colour singlets states even in the absence of unquenched effect.The two-point function,in general,couples not only to the single hadron but also to the two-hadron states.We seek operators that has a little overlap with the hadronic two-body states in order to identify the signal of our hexaquark state in lattice QCD.For this purpose,we first consider a non two-body-type field for I (J P C )=0(0−+)and construct our interpolating fields based on the diquark description.In Jaffe model [11],each pair of [ud ]form a diquarkwhich transforms like a spin singlet (1s ),colour anti-triplet (¯3c ),and the flavor anti-triplet (¯3f ).Therefore,for a diquark operator,one has [12]Q i,a Γ(x )=1√2andO ¯N (x )=ǫdef [¯q d (x )Cγ5¯q Te (x )]¯qf (x )(5)are the standard interpolating fields for the nucleon andantinucleon,respectively.A more accurate procedure will be to measure the 2×2correlation matrix and extract theeffective mass from the eigenvalues using variational techniques [13].In this study,however,we do not intend to pursue this issue further.To examine the possible proton-antiproton ground state in lattice QCD,we generate quenched configu-rations on a 203×60lattice with tadpole-improved anisotropic gluon action [14]in the coupling range of 3.0−4.0.Gauge configurations are generated by a 5-hit pseudo heat bath update supplemented by four over-relaxation steps.These configurations are then fixed to the Coulomb gauge at every 500sweeps.After discarding the initial sweeps,a total of 500configurations for each coupling are accumulated for ing the tadpole-improved clover quark action on the anisotropic lattice [15]over the lattice spacing range of 0.26−0.39fm,we compute the light-quark propagators at six values of the hopping parameter κt which cover the quark mass region of m u <m q <2m u .To obtain a better overlap with the ground state we used iterative smearing of gauge links and the applica-tion of fuzzing technique for the fermion fields [16].The application of fuzzing for two of the six quarks inside the hexaquark state flattens the curvature of the effec-tive mass.The largest plateau in the region with small errors is obtained with fuzzed u -and d -quarks.We used this variant to calculate our correlation functions.From the correlation functions we extract the mass (en-ergy)by standard χ2fitting with multi-hyperbolic cosine ansatzC (t )=n i =1A i cosh(tm i ).The fitting range [t min ,t max ]for the final analysis is de-termined by fixing t max and finding a range of t min where the ground state mass is stable against t min .We choose one “best fit”which is insensitive to the fit range,has high confidence level and reasonable statistical errors.Typical example of the effective mass plot is shown in Fig.1.The effective mass decreases monotonically,which im-plies that excited spectral contributions are greatly re-duced.For the χN ¯N -type field,an impressive plateau with reasonable statistical errors is observed in the in-terval 35≤t ≤50,where we expect to achieve single state dominance.For the χdq -type field,the signal is noisy at earlier times,and hence we fit in the interval 45≤t ≤55.Statistical errors of masses are estimated by a single elimination jackknife method.We kept sta-tistical errors under control by ensuring that analyzed configuration are uncorrelated,which is made possibleby separating them by as many as 500sweeps.The sta-tistical uncertainties on our hadron masses are typicallyon the few percent level.The masses of the non-strange mesons π,ρas well as the nucleon were computed for scale setting and analyzing the stability of hexa-quark state,respectively.25 30 35 4045 50 55 60tM e f fFIG.1:Effective mass of the J P C =0−+color-singlet state as a function of t .The data corresponds to interpolators χdq (open circles)and χN ¯N (open triangles)at β=3.5and κt =0.2380.The chiral extrapolation to the physical limit is the next important issue.From the view point of chiral per-turbation theory,data points with smallest m 2πshould be used to capture the chiral log behaviour.Leinweber et al [17]demonstrated that the chiral extrapolation method based upon finite-range regulator leads to extremely ac-curate value for the mass of the physical nucleon with systematic errors of less than one percent.Unfortunately there does not seem to exist such a chiral extrapolation technique for multi-quark hadrons beyond a naive one.Since quenched spectroscopy is quite reliable for mass ratio of stable particles,it is physically even more mo-tivated to extrapolate mass ratio instead of mass.This allows for the cancellation of systematic errors since the hadron states are generated from the same gauge field configurations and hence systematic errors are strongly correlated.Fig.2collects and displays the resulting par-ticle mass ratios extrapolated to the physical quark mass value using linear and quadratic fits in m 2πm h =a +bm 2π,m h =a +bm 2π+cm 4π.For the nucleon we have employed the procedure adoptedin Ref.[17].The difference between these two extrap-olations gives some information about systematic uncer-tainties in the extrapolated quantities.The data behave almost linearly in m 2πand both the linear and quadratic fits essentially gave the identical results.The mass ra-tios extracted from the fields χdq and χN ¯N are very close and agree within the errors.It can be seen that mass ratios show a weaker dependence on the quark mass.We3expect the contributions from the uncertainties due to chiral logarithms in the physical limit significantly less dominant at our present statistics.M a s s (M a s s r a t i o )M ( )2π2GeVFIG.2:Chiral extrapolation of hadron mass and mass ra-tios extracted with the diquark-type (open triangles)and N ¯N(open circles)interpolating fields at a s =0.32fm.The solid triangles correspond to the proton interpolating field.The question whether the lowest-lying J P C =0−+state extracted is scattering state or a resonance is bet-ter resolved by analyzing the ratio of the mass differences ∆M (between the candidate low-lying hexa-quark state and the free two-particle state)and the nucleon mass.The fitted data,illustrated in Fig.3,show that both the field operators give the consistent estimates of the ratio and the masses derived from both the operators are con-sistently higher than the lowest-mass two-particle state.The ratios are clearly positive and increase in magnitude as we approach the physical regime.At zero quark mass∆M M PM ( )2π2GeVFIG.3:Chiral extrapolation of the mass ratios extracted fromdiquark-type (open circles)and N ¯N(open triangles)fields at a s =0.29fm.the mass difference for both the field operators is ∼55(2)MeV.The chiral uncertainties in the physical limit are less than 2%.In other words,binding becomes weaker near the physical regime with a general trend of positive binding as the zero quark mass limit is approached.A similar behavior observed for the mass differences between the hexaquark and the two-particle states at smaller lattice spacing a s =0.26fm is illustrated in Fig.4.The ratio obtained from the χdq operator for the five smallest quark masses is slightly higher than that ob-tained from the χN ¯N operator.For N ¯N-type field the mass difference is ∼56(1)MeV and ∼59(2)MeV for diquark-type interpolator.The chiral uncertainties are estimated to be less than a percent.The positive mass splitting in both these channels could be interpreted as the evidence of repulsion.Similarly,positive mass dif-M ( )2π2GeV∆M M PFIG.4:Chiral extrapolation of the mass ratios extracted fromdiquark-type (open circles)and N ¯N(open triangles)fields at a s =0.26fm.ferences that approximately remained constant with m 2πand consistent with those obtained at our regular lat-tices was observed on a larger lattice volume of 6.243fm 3.Again the signature of repulsion at quark masses near the physical regime would imply no evidence of the res-onance in the J P C =0−+channel.This suggests that p ¯p (in the quenched approximation)is more complicated and different than two-hadron system otherwise.Finally,we performed a continuum extrapolation for the chirally extrapolated quantities in Fig.5.Expecting that dominant part of scaling violation errors is largely eliminated by tadpole improvement,we adopt an a 2s -lin-ear extrapolation for the continuum limit.We also per-form an a s -linear extrapolation to estimate systematic errors.Performing such extrapolations,we adopt the choice which shows the smoothest scaling behavior for the final values,and use others to estimate the system-atic errors.As can be seen from Fig.5,the mass ratio again shows a weak dependence on the lattice spacing and varies only slightly over the fitting range.The four non-zero lattice spacing values of the ratio are within40.01-0.02standard deviations of the extrapolated zero lattice spacing result.This will make for unambiguous and accurate continuum ing the

m p =938MeV,we obtain a continuum mass estimate of 1935(19)(60)and 1940(26)(72)MeV for the ground state hexa quark state from χNN and χdq interpolators,respectively.The results from two extrap-olations seem to be in good agreement,within errors.Given the fact that the ratio does not show any scaling violations,we could also quote the value of this quantity on our finest lattice,which has the smallest error.Never-theless,order 4%errors on the finally quoted values are mostly due to the chiral and the continuum extrapola-tions.Since the mass difference between the reported experi-mental p ¯p mass and the physical 2m p continuum is ∼30MeV,naively one may be tempted to interpret the results in Figs.3and 4as a signature of the proton-antiproton bound state on the lattice.But the positive mass dif-ference observed in the range of pion mass differs from what is seen for the p ¯p state studied on the lattice.The continuum results imply that the mass difference does not move into the continuum with an attractive interac-tion between p and ¯p .This suggests that the observed signal is too heavy to be identified with the empirical p ¯p (1859)and unlikely to be a signature of a possible proton-antiproton system as a six quark state.However the interaction between a baryon and an antibaryon can be as strong as that of baryon-baryon systems.Therefore we do not discard the interesting possibility that it could be a mixed molecular state of baryon and antibaryon bound by some long-range force of strong or electromag-netic nature or both.We have presented the results of the first lattice inves-tigation on the p ¯p state employing improved gauge andfermion anisotropic actions,relatively light quark masses as well as smearing techniques to enhance the overlap with the ground state of the particle.Our analysis takes into account all possible uncertainties,such as statistical,finite-size,and quenching errors when performing the chi-ral and continuum extrapolations.On the basis of our lattice calculation we speculate that the state is not to be identified as a bound state of six quarks.However a thorough examination of this question would require the implementation of flavor SU(3)violation.The I =0,p ¯p state couples to 4πη[10]through the s ¯s component of the ηin the quenched approximation.By giving the strange quark a larger mass would alter threshold which in turn would affect the manifestation of the bound state.Unquenched lattice calculations with varying quark mass are needed to confirm our results.I would like to thank
