The reduction of calcium sulfate to produce calcium sulfide is not only a part of the cyclic process for converting sulfur dioxide to elemental sulfur described in part 1 of this series but also of interest as a means of producing elemental sulfur from gypsum. This reaction was investigated using a thermogravimetric a…

Abstract A new method of chemical bonding analysis in crystalline solids is suggested. Wannier functions centered on atoms and related to upper valence and lower conduction bands of a crystal [Wannier‐type atomic orbitals (WTAO)] are proposed to play a part of atom‐like functions in population analysis. A straightforw…

We explain the origin of the high-energy mode in the first-order Raman spectra of single-walled carbon nanotubes by double-resonant scattering. Following this interpretation, we calculate the multiple-peak structure as found in Raman experiments. The highest peak is above the graphite $\ensuremath{\Gamma}$-point frequ…

A method is presented for the determination of physical discharge parameters for partial discharges (PDs) of voids in solid insulation. Based on a recently developed stochastic theory of PD processes, a statistical analysis of a measured phase-resolved partial discharge (PRPD) pattern allows the determination of the r…

Abstract X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis of Cu 2p peaks is able to discriminate between Cu(II) and Cu(I). This is particularly useful when copper is supported in a zeolite matrix, as in heterogeneous catalysts. The preparation route, the Si/Al ratio and the kind of zeolite all contribute to determine the fin…

Maxwell-Wagner piezoelectric, dielectric and elastic relaxations in two-layer or multilayer serial piezoactive media are considered. As distinct from the oversimple model, described in literature, we derive exact solutions by taking into account mechanical boundary conditions, transversal piezoelectric response and el…

Human phenylalanine hydroxylase (hPAH) is a tetrameric enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of L-phenylalanine (L-Phe) to L-tyrosine; a dysfunction of this enzyme causes phenylketonuria. Each subunit in hPAH contains an N-terminal regulatory domain (Ser2-Ser110), a catalytic domain (Asp112-Arg410), and an oligomeri…
