The N-terminal 15 amino acids of the major protein associated with inorganic pyrophosphatase activity in Bacillus subtilis WB600 are identical to those of B. subtilis ORF yybQ. This ORF was amplified from B. subtilis WB600 DNA by PCR and cloned into an overexpression vector in Escherichia coli. Induction of overexpres…

We propose a flow method to produce barium hexaferrite (BaO6Fe 2 O 3 ) particles with hydrothermal crystallization in supercritical water. Aqueous iron(III) and barium nitrate solution at room temperature was pressurized to 30 MPa and then mixed with potassium hydroxide solution (OH:NO 3 = 4) at the same conditions to…

The effect of hydrostatic pressure on the lower critical ordering transition (LCOT) was investigated by in situ small angle neutron scattering on symmetric and asymmetric diblock copolymers of perdeuterated polystyrene and poly( n -butyl methacrylate). These systems exhibit a transition from the disordered to ordered…

We have compared the X-ray structures of 13 thermophilic proteins with their mesophilic homologues, in order to bring out differences in the stability of helices. The energy terms of a helix-coil transition algorithm were used to evaluate helix stability. Helices of thermophilic proteins are more stable than the mesop…

Electrolessly deposited materials were investigated as possible diffusion barrier layers for multilayer microelectronic structures. Attention was focused on selective deposition of barrier layers on various surfaces, the barrier's capability to inhibit Cu diffusion, changes in Cu resistivity caused by barrier material…

Theoretical electronic structure studies on ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{n}$ $(n=2--8)$ clusters have been carried out using a linear-combination-of-atomic-orbitals--molecular-orbital approach within the density-functional formalism. It is shown that ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{2}$ and ${\mathrm{Mn}}_{3}$ have energetically close ferromagneti…

Hydrogen-induced changes on the electronic and structural properties of amorphous carbon nitride (a-CNx:H) prepared by ion beam assisted deposition are investigated by x-ray photoelectron, ultraviolet photoelectron, infrared, and Raman spectroscopies. Two series of specimen are studied: films with a constant nitrogen…

Erosion is regarded as a result of the periodic loading of a surface with spherical waves generated at the sites of the collapse of cavitation bubbles. One feature of cavitation loading is the formation of a zone of intense failure at the center of the contact surface. Damage appears a consequence of the formation of…

Estimation of reference intensity ratios ( k i or RIR) can be made on the basis of an atomic scattering function. Tests of regression equations for 50 compounds that predict an approximate reference intensity ratio from the easily computed scattering function have shown usefulness in multicomponent semiquantitative X-…

Molecular chain diffusion in polyethylene crystals is studied using carbon-13 NMR longitudinal relaxation. Conventional slow-cooled polyethylene samples have been treated by means of electron-beam irradiation in acetylene, which forms crosslinks mainly at the fold surfaces. Following saturation, these samples show a s…

An explicit connection between the unoccupied single-particle states which are measured with electron energy loss or x-ray-absorption spectroscopy (EELS or XAS) and the occupied states which are involved in bonding is established by applying the force theorem to the tight-binding bond model. The resulting sum rule rel…

We study the effect of confinement on the phase behavior of a charge-stabilized colloidal suspension between two parallel charged plates. The electrostatic interaction of the counterions with the plates induces density inhomogeneity of the counterions. Our Monte Carlo simulations show that the external potential actin…
