Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Alpha- and Beta-6-Amido Derivatives of 17-Cyclopropylmethyl-3, 14 Beta-Dihydroxy-4, 5 Alpha-Epoxymorphinan: Potential Alcohol-Cessation Agents
Substituted aryl and aliphatic amide analogues of 6-naltrexamine were synthesized and used to characterize the binding to and functional activity of human μ-, δ-, and κ-opioid receptors.

Sioc Ceramic with High Excess Free Carbon
The correlation between microstructure evolution and increasing processing temperature of a polymer-derived SiOC ceramic with a high volume fraction of free carbon was studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

The Mineralogy of Shock-Induced Melt Vein in Martian Meteorite Zagami: Shock Pressure and Ejection Mechanism
This is the first report of Post-stishovite was found in zagami meteorite in the maskelynite outside of shock-induced melt vein. The mineralogy assemblages of melt vein, including stishovite, pyroxene and…

Threshold Collision-Induced Dissociation of Hydrogen-Bonded Dimers of Carboxylic Acids
Energy-resolved competitive collision-induced dissociation is used to investigate the proton-bound heterodimer anions of a series of carboxylic acids (formic, acetic, and benzoic acid) and nitrous acid with their conjugate bases.

New Proton Conductive Composite Materials with Inorganic and Styrene Grafted and Sulfonated Vdf/Ctfe Fluoropolymers
A new functionalized and crosslinkable P(VDF-CTFE) (vinylidene fluoride/chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer) was synthesized using functional borane/oxygen initiator and grafted with styrene (St) via atom transfer radical polymerization followed by partial or the…

Progress Toward a Theory for Excess Heat in Metal Deuterides
Here we discuss a theoretical model that consists of sets of two-level systems coupled indirectly through a low-energy oscillator that is off-resonant.

Determination of Indenter-tip Geometry and Indentation Contact Area for Depth-Sensing Indentation Experiments
In this paper we develop a new technique for determining the indenter tip shape using both indentation loads and displacements and direct scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images of the impressions…
