Carbon 1s photoelectron asymmetry parameters β for the chlorinated and the methyl carbon atom of CH₃CH₂Cl, CH₃CHCl₂, and CH₃CCl₃ have been measured using synchrotron radiation in the 340-600 eV energy range. We provide experimental evidence that the intramolecular scattering strongly affects beta values, even far from the ionization threshold. The...
We report an experimental and theoretical study of single-molecule inner-shell photoemission measured over an extended range of photon energies. The vibrational intensity ratios I (nu = 1)/I (nu = 0) from the C 1s photoelectron spectra of carbon monoxide, although mostly determined by the bond length change upon ionization, are...
X-ray photoemission spectroscopy is used in a great variety of research fields; one observable is the sample's stoichiometry. The stoichiometry can be deduced based on the expectation that the ionization cross sections for innershell orbitals are independent of the molecular composition. Here we used chlorine-substituted ethanes in the gas phase...
Rapamycin was found to increase (11% to 16%) the lifespan of male and female C57BL/6J mice most likely by reducing the
increase in the hazard for mortality (i.e., the rate of aging) term in the Gompertz mortality analysis. To identify the pathways
that could be responsible for rapamycin’s longevity effect,...

Carbon 1s photoelectron spectra for 2-butyne (CH3C CCH3) measured in the photon energy range from threshold to 150 eV above threshold show oscillations in the intensity ratio C2,3/C1,4. Similar oscillations have been seen in chloroethanes, where the effect has been attributed to EXAFS-type scattering from the substituent chlorine atoms. In...
The purpose of this qualitative, phenomenological study was to explore the lived experiences of incarcerated women who participated in a service-learning program to help the homeless. Service-learning is effective pedagogy for involving students in civic engagement, and their involvement has been shown to increase the self-esteem of participating college students....
The purpose of this quantitative study was to identify factors that contribute to students' levels of global citizenship. Factors considered in this research include (a) race/ethnicity, (b) gender, (c), year in school, (d) age, (e), length of time abroad, (f) host family experience, (g), community service abroad, (h) more than...
The effect of the Coriolis interaction upon the sharing of energy between rotational and vibrational excitation
during an electronic transition is considered with particular emphasis on recoil-induced excitation during
photoionization. If there is a large change in equilibrium bond length upon ionization, then Coriolis coupling
leads to a significant transfer...
