Laser-Induced Plasma Emission Spectrometric Study of Pigments and Binders in Paper Coatings: Matrix Effects
1998
Laser-induced plasma emission spectroscopy (LIPS) has been used to study inorganic pigment and organic binder distributions in paper coatings, which are inhomogeneous and porous materials. The plasma was generated by focusing a pulsed XeCl excimer laser beam (diameter 100 μm, irradiance 0.3 GW/cm2) on the sample surface at atmospheric pressure. A gated intensified CCD detector was used to record time-delayed emission spectra. Linear correlations between the LIPS signals and the coat weight and the binder content of the coatings studied were obtained. Emission line intensities from ionic and neutral magnesium atoms were used to evaluate plasma temperature corrections in determining silicon a…
The fragmentation of 5- and 3-substituted thiophene-2-carboxamides under electron impact
1980
The 70 eV electron impact mass spectra of twelve 5- and 3-substituted thiophene-2-carboxamides are discussed with the aid of exact mass measurements and labelling experiments. All mass spectra exhibit pronounced molecular ions. Some isomeric 5- and 3-substituted title compounds can be differentiated by mass spectrometry. The fragmentation is influenced by a strong ‘ortho-effect’ which activates the NH3 elimination. In the other cases the most important fragmentation is NH2˙ loss, followed by CO elimination.
Studies in organic mass spectrometry. Part 17—Formation of phenol radical ions by rearrangement of the molecular ions of someN-arylthiophenecarboxami…
1995
It has been shown by exact mass measurements and collision-induced dissociation mass-analysed ion kinetic energy spectra that the structure of the m/z 124 ion observed in the mass spectra of N-(4-methoxyphenyl)thiophene-2-carboxamide, N-(4-methoxyphenyl)thiophene-3-carboxamide, N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-5-nitrothiophene-3-carboxamide and N-(4-methoxyphenyl)benzamide is identical with that of the molecular ion of 4-methoxyphenol. This ion becomes abundant in metastable energy window reactions. A probable mechanism for its formation is discussed.
Antimonic acid hydrate xerogels as proton electrolytes
1993
Abstract Two high stability types of protonic solid electrolytes based on antimonic acid hydrate xerogels have been obtained by the sol-gel technique: Sb 2 O 5 ·(3–4)H 2 O (colloidal) and Sb 2 O 5 ·5H 2 O (polymeric). The first one is a white compact material with conductivity 0.40 mS/cm (298 K) for n =3.7. The last one is transparent for visible light with a conductivity of 0.80 mS/cm. An electrochromic system based on the colloidal gel electrolyte in the form of paste has good performance-more than 10 7 cycles and a lifetime of more than five years.
Parenting Stress in Families of Children with Autism Spectrum Disorder and ADHD
2015
The purpose of this study was to compare the parenting stress experienced by parents of 121 children from 5 to 9 years old with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), comorbid ASD+ADHD, and typical development in different domains related to child and parent characteristics using the Parenting Stress Index. The three clinical groups presented greater perceived parenting stress than did the comparison group (CG). The ADHD group obtained higher levels of parenting stress related to attachment and depression than did the other groups. The ASD+ADHD group presented a unique profile of differences from the CG on Health and Spouse subscales. Results highl…

With the purpose of promoting academic inclusion, it is essential for educators to understand the nature underlying poor reading comprehension in children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). In th...
On the Fučík spectrum of the p-Laplacian with no-flux boundary condition
2023
In this paper, we study the quasilinear elliptic problem \begin{align*} \begin{aligned} -\Delta_{p} u&= a\l(u^+\r)^{p-1}-b\l(u^-\r)^{p-1} \quad && \text{in } \Omega,\\ u & = \text{constant} &&\text{on } \partial\Omega,\\ 0&=\int_{\partial \Omega}\left|\nabla u\right|^{p-2}\nabla u\cdot \nu \,\diff \sigma,&& \end{aligned} \end{align*} where the operator is the $p$-Laplacian and the boundary condition is of type no-flux. In particular, we consider the Fu\v{c}\'{\i}k spectrum of the $p$-Laplacian with no-flux boundary condition which is defined as the set $\fucik$ of all pairs $(a,b)\in\R^2$ such that the problem above has a nontrivial solution. It turns out…

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition characterized by social interaction and communication difficulties, along with narrow and repetitive interests. Being a spectrum dis...
Enhancing HSUPA system level performance with dual carrier capability
2010
The purpose of this paper is to analyze how dual carrier capability can enhance High Speed Uplink Packet Access performance in comparison to using only single carrier. Dual carrier operation gives the User Equipment the possibility to transmit simultaneously using two 5 MHz bands, theoretically doubling the peak data rates and user throughput. The analysis is conducted with a system level simulation tool. This paper first indicates with single carrier simulations that, especially in small cells, terminals have spare power available for dual carrier operation. These observations are verified with dual carrier simulations by showing that the burst throughput can be practically doubled. In the…
Boolean Networks: A Primer
2021
Abstract Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASDs) stand out as a relevant example where omics-data approaches have been extensively and successfully employed. For instance, an outstanding outcome of the Autism Genome Project relies in the identification of biomarkers and the mapping of biological processes potentially implicated in ASDs’ pathogenesis. Several of these mapped processes are related to molecular and cellular events (e.g., synaptogenesis and synapse function, axon growth and guidance, etc.) that are required for the development of a correct neuronal connectivity. Interestingly, these data are consistent with results of brain imaging studies of some patients. Despite these remarkable pr…
