Ab initio coupled-cluster effective interactions for the shell model: application to neutron-rich oxygen and carbon isotopes. [PDF]
We derive and compute effective valence-space shell-model interactions from ab initio coupled-cluster theory and apply them to open-shell and neutron-rich oxygen and carbon isotopes.

Carbon Isotopes Near Drip Lines in the Relativistic Mean-Field Theory [PDF]
We have investigated the ground-state properties of carbon isotopes in the framework of the relativistic mean-field (RMF) theory. RMF calculations have been performed with the non-linear scalar self-coupling of the $\sigma$ meson using an axially ...

The Emergence of Carbon Isotope Exchange
Significant progress in C-C bond activation with transition metals has recently enabled the development of several carbon isotope exchange reactions. These methods are based on C-C bond decarboxylative carboxylation reactions in the presence of selected transition metals and labelled carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide.

Carbon Isotopic Chemistry [PDF]
Isotopic molecular abundances are used to interpret Galactic chemical evolution and the properties of interstellar clouds. The isotopic chemistry of carbon plays an important role in the interpretation of these measurements. This paper reviews the recent measurements of the carbon twelve to thirteen ratio across the Galaxy and the isotopic chemistry.

Stable isotope values in modern bryozoan carbonate from New Zealand and implications for paleoenvironmental interpretation [PDF]
Bryozoan carbonate contains useful geochemical evidence of temperate shelf paleoenvironments. Stable isotope values were determined for 103 modern marine bryozoan skeletons representing 30 species from New Zealand. δ18O values range from -1.4 to 2.8 VPDB,

BACKGROUND Organic carbon and nitrogen stable isotopes (δ13C, δ15N) in marine sediments are used as effective indicators to trace the changes of air, temperature, precipitation and other parameters in different geological time. Elemental analysis-isotope

Recent developments in heterocycle labeling with carbon isotopes.
Heterocycles play an essential role in modern pharmaceutical and agrochemical developments, representing a very common structural unit in marketed drugs. Over the 46 new drugs approved in 2017 by the FDA, 25 contain in their structure a heterocyclic core.

Carbon isotopic fractionation in molecular clouds [PDF]
Context. Carbon fractionation has been studied from a theoretical point of view with different models of time-dependent chemistry, including both isotope-selective photodissociation and low-temperature isotopic exchange reactions. Aims. Recent chemical models predict that isotopic exchange reactions may lead to a depletion of 13C in nitrile-bearing ...

Continuum discretized BCS approach for weakly bound nuclei [PDF]
The Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) formalism is extended by including the single-particle continuum in order to analyse the evolution of pairing in an isotopic chain from stability up to the drip line.

Dry season limnological conditions and basin geology exhibit complex relationships with δ13C and δ15N of carbon sources in four Neotropical floodplains. [PDF]
Studies in freshwater ecosystems are seeking to improve understanding of carbon flow in food webs and stable isotopes have been influential in this work.
