Abstract
Obesity is associated with cognitive decline. Recent observations in mice propose an adipose tissue (AT)-brain axis. We identified 188 genes from RNA sequencing of AT in three cohorts that were associated with performance in different cognitive domains. These genes were mostly involved in synaptic function, phosphatidylinositol metabolism, the complement cascade, anti-inflammatory signaling, and vitamin metabolism. These findings were translated into the plasma metabolome. The circulating blood expression levels of most of these genes were also associated with several cognitive domains in a cohort of 816 participants. Targeted misexpression of candidate gene ortholog in the Drosophila fat body significantly altered flies memory and learning. Among them, down-regulation of the neurotransmitter release cycle-associated gene SLC18A2 improved cognitive abilities in Drosophila and in mice. Up-regulation of RIMS1 in Drosophila fat body enhanced cognitive abilities. Current results show previously unidentified connections between AT transcriptome and brain function in humans, providing unprecedented diagnostic/therapeutic targets in AT.

Abstract
We have recorded the resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization spectrum for NO (A) products from photodissociation of the N2-NO complex. We made measurements at excitation energies ranging from 28 to 758 cm-1 above the threshold to produce NO (A) + N2 (X) products, and the resulting spectra reveal the NO (A) rotational states formed during dissociation, allowing us to determine the rotational state distribution. At the lowest available energies, 28 and 50 cm-1 above threshold, we observed contributions from NO (A) rotational states that exceed the available energy and must originate from excitation due to hotbands of the complex. At all higher energies, we did not observe any energetically disallowed NO (A) rotational states, and for all available energies above 259 cm-1 the observed rotational transitions do not extend to the maximum allowed by energy conservation. Furthermore, the observed distributions were typically biased toward low rotational states, in contrast with expectations from vibrational predissociation. From the rotational state distributions, we determined the average fraction of energy partitioned into NO (A) rotation, fNO rot, ave, to be 0.088 at the highest available energy, and this fraction increased as the available energy decreased. By combining the average NO (A) rotational energy along with the average center-of-mass translational energy from our previous work, we determined the average rotational energy for the undetected N2 (X) photoproduct. The results showed that the N2 fragment has a higher average rotational energy relative to the NO fragment. Finally, we found that the NO (A) rotational state distribution was colder than expected for a statistical dissociation.

Abstract
We have used velocity map ion imaging to measure the angular anisotropy of the NO (A) products from the photodissociation of the N2-NO complex. Our experiment ranged from 108 to 758 cm-1 above the threshold energy to form NO (A) + N2 (X) products, and these measurements reveal, for the first time, a strong angular anisotropy from photodissociation. At 108 cm-1 above the photodissociation threshold, we observed NO (A) photoproducts recoil preferentially perpendicular to the laser polarization axis with an average anisotropy parameter, β = -0.25; however, as the available energy was increased, the anisotropy increased, and at 758 cm-1 above the threshold energy, we found an average β = +0.28. The observed changes in the angular anisotropy of the NO (A) photoproduct are qualitatively similar to those observed for the photodissociation of the Ar-NO complex and likely result from changes in the region of the excited state potential energy surface accessed during the electronic excitation. At the lowest available energy, we also noted a large contribution from hotband excitation; however, this contribution decreased as the available energy increased. The outsized contribution at the lowest available energy may result from hotbands having better Franck-Condon overlap with the excited electronic state near threshold. Finally, we contrast the experimental center of mass translational energy distribution with a statistical energy distribution determined from phase space theory. The experimental and statistical distributions show pronounced disagreement, particularly at low kinetic energies, with the experimental one showing less dissociation resulting in high rotational levels of the fragments.

Abstract
Our primary goal was to measure the NO (A) photoproduct appearance energy and ground-state dissociation energy of the N2-NO complex. We recorded velocity map ion images of NO photofragments resulting from the dissociation of the N2-NO complex excited between ∼225.8 and 224.0 nm, which ranged from the photodissociation threshold to about 342 cm-1 above the threshold. In the experiment, one photon dissociated the complex through the N2 (X 1Σg+)-NO (A 2Σ+) ← N2 (X 1Σg+)-NO (X 2Π) transition, and a second photon nonresonantly ionized the NO (A) photoproduct. The lowest-energy photons near 225.8 nm did not have sufficient energy to photodissociate the lowest excited state of the complex; however, dissociation was observed with increasing photon energy. On the basis of the experiments, we determined the appearance energy for the NO (A) photoproduct to be 44 284.7 ± 2.8 cm-1. From the appearance energy and the NO A ← X origin band transition, we determined a ground-state dissociation energy of 85.8 ± 2.8 cm-1. As we increased the photon energy, the excess energy was partitioned into rotational modes of the diatomic products as well as product translational energy. We found good agreement between the average fraction of rotational energy and the predictions of a simple pseudo three atom impulsive model. Finally, at all photon energies, we observed some contribution from internally excited complexes in the resulting P(ET). The maximum internal energy of these complexes was consistent with the ground-state dissociation energy.

Abstract
Until now, the potential energy surfaces (PESs) of the ArNO complex found in the literature were two-dimensional, with the NO interatomic distance being fixed. In this work, we present the first accurate three-dimensional ground state X̃ 2Π PESs (both A' and A″) of ArNO computed at the CCSD(T)/CBS level of theory. The equilibrium geometries and the well depths (De) are compared to several other electronic structure methods. We found that using the multireference method, MRCI-F12 makes the surfaces much shallower (by 25%) and the depth of the surfaces does not agree with experimental data. The explicitly correlated coupled-cluster method underestimates the well depth as well. Analytic representations for both A' and A″ surfaces were fit to 4380 ab initio points to within 2.71 cm-1. A three-dimensional Numerov propagator method in Delves coordinates is used to compute the bound state spectrum up to Jtot = 6.5. The recommended dissociation energies are D0 = 97.2 cm-1 for the adiabatic ground state and De = 133.7 (128.1) cm-1 for A' (A″).

Abstract
We present new measurements of the near IR spectrum of NO-Ne in the region of the first NO overtone transition. The IR absorption is detected by exciting the vibrationally excited complex to the Ã-state dissociation continuum. The resulting NO(A) fragment is subsequently ionized in the same laser pulse. Spectra of the two lowest bands, A and B, are recorded. The spectra are compared with calculated spectra based on bound states derived from a new set of high level ab initio potential energy surfaces (PESs). For the calculation, the PESs are used with either fixed NO intermolecular distance or averaged for the vibrational states of NO (X̃, v = 0 or 2). Spectra based on the new PESs reproduce the experimental spectra better than theoretical spectra based on the older PESs of M. H. Alexander et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 114, 5588 (2001)]. Especially, spectra based on the two different vibrationally averaged PESs show a marked improvement in comparison to the one based on the fixed internuclear NO-distance. A fitted set of spectroscopic constants allows to reproduce most of the finer details of the measured spectra. Monitoring simultaneously the NO fragment ion and the parent ion channels while scanning the UV wavelength through the NO A-X hot-band region enabled us to confirm the NO-Ne Ã-state dissociation limit of 44233 ± 5 cm(-1). These measurements also confirm the absence of a structured NO-Ne spectrum involving the Ã-state.

Abstract
We present the results of an investigation into the rotational and angular distributions of the NO à state fragment following photodissociation of the NO-He, NO-Ne, and NO-Ar van der Waals complexes excited via the à ← X̃ transition. For each complex, the dissociation is probed for several values of Ea, the available energy above the dissociation threshold. For NO-He, the Ea values probed were 59, 172, and 273 cm(-1); for NO-Ne they were 50 and 166 cm(-1); and for NO-Ar they were 44, 94, 194, and 423 cm(-1). The NO à state rotational distributions arising from NO-He are cold, with most products in low angular momentum states. NO-Ne leads to broader NO rotational distributions but they do not extend to the maximum possible given the energy available. In the case of NO-Ar, the distributions extend to the maximum allowed at that energy and show the unusual shapes associated with the rotational rainbow effect reported in previous studies. This is the only complex for which a rotational rainbow effect is observed at the chosen Ea values. Product angular distributions have also been measured for the NO à photodissociation product for the three complexes. NO-He produces nearly isotropic fragments, but the anisotropy parameter, β, for NO-Ne and NO-Ar photofragments shows a surprising change in sign from negative to positive as Ea increases within the unstructured excitation profile. Franck-Condon selection of a broader distribution of geometries including more linear geometries at lower excitation energies and more T-shaped geometries at higher energies can account for the changing recoil anisotropy. Two-dimensional wavepacket calculations are reported to model the rotational state distributions and the bound-continuum absorption spectra.

Abstract
We present new potential energy surfaces for the interaction of NO(C (2)Π) with each of Ne, Kr, and Xe. The potential energy surfaces have been calculated using second order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory, exploiting a procedure to converge the reference Hartree-Fock wavefunction for the excited states: the maximum overlap method. The bound rovibrational states obtained from the surfaces are used to simulate the electronic spectra and their appearance is in good agreement with available (2+1) REMPI spectra. We discuss the assignment and appearance of these spectra, comparing to that of NO-Ar.

Abstract
After preparing NO-Ar in a vibrational state correlating with the first overtone vibration in NO, we recorded its hot band UV spectrum by monitoring simultaneously the intensity in the NO(+) and the NO(+)-Ar ion channels. In this way, the bound as well as the continuous part of the electronic Ã←X̃ spectrum are observed directly. Below the dissociation threshold, the intensity is found exclusively in the NO(+)-Ar ion channel while above it is found in the NO fragment ion channel. We observe simultaneously intensity in both ion channels only for a very narrow frequency range near the dissociation threshold. Structures in the dissociation spectrum correlate well with the thresholds for production of NO(A) in different rotational states. At frequencies well above the dissociation threshold, NO-Ar is detected efficiently as a NO fragment. This fact has been exploited to record the near IR spectrum of NO-Ar with significantly increased sensitivity. The dissociation detected spectra are essentially identical to our previous constant photon energy sum (CONPHOENERS) scans [B. Wen, Y. Kim, H. Meyer, J. Kłos, and M. H. Alexander, J. Phys. Chem. A 112, 9483 (2008)]. Several hot band spectra have been remeasured with improved sensitivity enabling a comprehensive analysis yielding for the first time spectroscopic constants for levels associated with the potential surfaces of NO-Ar correlating with NO(v(NO) = 0 and 2). Since many NO-X complexes do not have a strong bound Ã-state spectrum, although they do have a Ã-state dissociation continuum, there is the possibility to record their near IR spectra by employing dissociation detection.

Abstract
We report an investigation of the dissociation of A state NO-Ar at energies from 23 cm(-1) below the dissociation energy to 200 cm(-1) above. The NO product rotational distributions show population in states that are not accessible with the energy available for excitation from the NO ground state. This effect is observed at photon energies from below the dissociation energy up to approximately 100 cm(-1) above it. Translational energy distributions, extracted from velocity map images of individual rotational levels of the NO product, reveal contributions from excitation of high energy NO-Ar X states at all the excess energies probed, although this diminishes with increasing photon energy and is quite small at 200 cm(-1), the highest energy studied. These translational energy distributions show that there are contributions arising from population in vibrational levels up to the X state dissociation energy. We propose that the reason such sparsely populated levels contribute to the observed dissociation is a considerable increase in the transition moment, via the Franck-Condon factor associated with these highly excited states, which arises because of the quite different geometries in the NO-Ar X and A states. This effect is likely to arise in other systems with similarly large geometry changes.

Abstract
We report the first measurement of the near IR spectrum of the NO-CH(4) complex in the region of the first vibrational NO overtone transition in an IR-resonance enhanced multiphoton ionization double resonance experiment. The origin band is located at 3723.26 cm(-1), i.e., redshifted by 0.59 cm(-1) from the corresponding NO monomer frequency. The observed spectrum consists of two bands assigned to the origin band and the excitation of hindered rotation of the NO monomer in the complex similar to z-axis rotation. The spacing and the relative intensity of the bands are consistent with a structure in which NO resides preferentially in a position perpendicular to the intermolecular axis. The deviation from the linear configuration with C(3v) symmetry can be regarded as a Jahn-Teller (JT) distortion. Each band is dominated by two broad peaks with a few resolved rotational structures. The large spacing between the two peaks is indicative of significant angular momentum quenching, possibly another manifestation of the JT effect. The delay dependence between the IR and UV laser pulses reveals a lifetime of about 10 ns for the vibrationally excited complex due to vibrational predissociation. On the other hand, the linewidth of the narrowest spectral features indicates a much shorter excited state lifetime of about 100 ps, most likely due to intramolecular vibrational redistribution.
