Imposing to a single polymer chain of N monomers either a fixed pair of forces +/-f acting at the chain ends (stress ensemble) or a fixed end-to-end vector R (strain ensemble) does correspond to the use of different statistical mechanical ensembles. In particular, the two elasticity laws, R(f)=g(f) and f(R)=h(R), wher…

This paper reviews the nature of defects and optical centers in magnesium aluminate spinel. The identification of absorption and luminescence bands was used to investigate the influence of UV and electron irradiation on optical center formation. Crystals examined were nominally pure MgO‐ n Al 2 O 3 crystals with compo…

A refined expression for the secondary Bjerknes force between two spherical gas bubbles in a viscous incompressible fluid is derived, allowing for the dipole oscillations of the bubbles and acoustic streaming around them. The investigation is motivated by the fact that the existing theory [see, for example, E. A. Zabo…

This paper presents a review of leakage current (Lc) measurements on nonceramic insulators and material samples. It is divided into two parts: First, the field investigations of LC, include a development of LC measuring systems and how the on-line LC measurements correlate to the insulator performance as well as to th…

A conjugated polymer−redox polymer hybrid based on the complexation of poly[2-(2-pyridyl)bibenzimidazole] with bis(2,2‘-bipyridyl)Ru 2+ has been prepared to take advantage of electronic communication between metal centers through the conjugated backbone. The existence of such communication is confirmed by the observat…

Abstract Extensive hydrothermal alteration is observed around volcanogenic massive sulfide deposits. These deposits are related to Late Cretaceous volcanism in various parts of the Eastern Pontide province. Mineral assemblages resulting from alteration consist of mostly clay minerals and silica polymorphs, some sulfat…

Thermogravimetry, derivative thermogravimetry (TG, DTG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X ray diffraction powder patterns have been used to study trimethoprim, sulfamethoxazole, ampicillim, tetracycline hydrochloride and rifampim. The results revealed the extent of their thermal stability and also allowed…

The interaction of R 2 AlH with cyclic siloxanes leads to rupture of the silicon−oxygen framework and yields aluminum polysiloxides. The room-temperature reaction of R 2 AlH with (Me 2 SiO) 3 yields the asymmetrical siloxide compounds R 2 Al(μ-OSiMe 2 H)(μ-OSiMe 2 OSiMe 2 H)AlR 2, R = t Bu ( 1 ), i Bu ( 2 ). In contra…

Abstract The Scherrer equation links the measured width of an X-ray diffraction peak (Scherrer width, SW) to the number of stacked cells ( N ) in the direction normal to the diffracting planes. The formula is only valid for one d -value occurring in the coherently diffracting domain. This equation can be modified for…

The study of twisting crystalline orientation in banded polymer spherulites has recently been revitalized by availability of optically active macromolecules that crystallize exclusively in isochiral (uncompensated) helical conformations. In such cases, handedness of twisting appears to be rigidly controlled by chirali…

Symmetric collision between two identical plates has yielded successful theoretical models for the jetting process. Consequently, assessment of impact jetting at planetary scales has been largely based on the theories developed for such specific types of collisions. Little experimental work has been done, however, to…
