We report a detailed study of magnetic and transport properties in perovskite manganites Nd0.55Sr0.45Mn1−xGaxO3 (0.00⩽x⩽0.20). The Ga substitution induces the B-site disorder together with a distinct suppression of the metal-insulator transition and ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition. Due to an appearance of inhomo…

Radiation damage in macromolecular crystals is not suppressed even at 90 K. This is particularly true for covalent bonds involving an anomalous scatterer (such as bromine) at the 'peak wavelength'. It is shown that a series of absorption spectra recorded on a brominated RNA faithfully monitor the extent of cleavage. T…
