On the "Expanded" Local Mode Approach and Isotopic Eff ect (CH2D2/CH3D/CHD3) in the Methane Molecule.
2010
Earlier derived, [1] - [3], for the XY2 (C2v) and XY3 (C3v) molecules "expanded local mode model" is applied to the methane-type, XH4, molecules. Value of the ambiguity parameter, sin \_gamma, simple value of all transformation coefficients, l, are obtained for the CH4 molecule. It gives us possibility, on the one hand, 1). to derive simple relations between different spectroscopic parameters (harmonic frequencies, anharmonic parameters and vibrational tetrahedral coefficients, rotational-vibrational and rotational tetrahedral coefficients) of the CH4 molecule, and, on the other hand, 2). on the base of the general isotopic substitution theory (see, e:g:, [4]), to obtain very simple values …
Chlorinated and methylated dibenzothiophenes: Preparation of the model compounds and their analysis from some environmental samples
1990
Abstract Polychlorinated and polymethylated dibenzothiophenes if occuring in the environment can cause environmental hazards and problems like chlorinated dibenzodioxins and dibenzofurans. Some chlorinated and methylated dibenzothiophenes have been synthesized to serve as model compounds in environmental and toxicological analysis. The synthesis mixtures and some environmental samples have been analyzed by high resolution GC/low resolution MS. This investigation showed that the concentrations of these compounds in environmental samples were below ppb level but it did not exclude the occurence of these compounds in our environment. More investigation is needed.
Chapter 8 Native and Bonded Silicas in Aqueous Sec
1988
Publisher Summary This chapter deals with the properties of packings and columns in correlation to chromatographic separations in size exclusion chromatography (SEC) and provides guidelines for optimum support design. The chapter provides a survey of the current state-of-the-art with respect to the surface modification of silica for SEC packings in aqueous eluents. The properties of commercial packings and columns are listed and compared. An advice is also discussed on the operation and maintenance of columns with a view to achieving high resolution and long life-time. In SEC, solute elution is based on equilibrium, entropy-controlled size exclusion process. According to their size, the so…
The use of very high resolution images for the estimation of Posidonia oceanica beach-cast morphology
2019
Posidonia oceanica is an endemic Mediterranean seagrass that forms wide and dense meadows from the surface to depths of about 40 m. During fall and winter, due to aging and storms, leaves and rhizomes break away from the seagrass meadows and accumulate on the shores (from a few centimeters in the water to several meters inshore) forming conspicuous beach-casts of P. oceanica detritus. These structures have received increasing attention in the last decade for the potential ecosystem services they provide in protecting the coast from erosion, linking marine and terrestrial food chains and contributing to carbon and nutrients fluxes. However, seagrass beach-cast morphology is not easy to estim…
Estimation of the volume of Posidonia oceanica detritus accumulations along Sicilian coasts by using very high resolution images
2019
Posidonia oceanica meadows are among the most important marine coastal ecosystems in the Mediterranean Sea due to several roles they are able to play. They, in fact, support high levels of primary production, enhance sedimentation of suspended particles through their canopies, prevent resuspension of marine sediments by means of roots and rhizomes and counteract coast erosion. Part of the primary production of this seagrass is not transferred to herbivores either immediately to detritus pathway but it can accumulate on the shore in form of banquette, typical structures exerting a significant role in protection of beaches from erosion. To accurately measure the extension, morphology, volume …
Size dependent light absorption modulation and enhanced carrier transport in germanium quantum dots devices
2015
Quantum confinement in closely packed arrays of Ge quantum dots (QDs) was studied for energy applications. In this work, we report an efficient tuning mechanism of the light harvesting and detection of Ge QDs. Thin films of SiGeO alloys, produced by rf-magnetron sputtering, were annealed at 600 degrees C in N-2 to induce precipitation of small amorphous Ge QDs into the oxide matrix. Varying the Ge content, the QD size was tailored between 2 and 4 nm, as measured by high resolution transmission electron microscopy. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) measurements indicate the formation of pure SiO2, as well as the presence of a sub-stoichiometric Ge oxide shell at the QD interface. Light …
Magnetic octupole moment of Yb-173 using collinear laser spectroscopy
2021
The hyperfine constants of the $4{f}^{14}6s6p^{3}P_{2}^{o}$ state in neutral Yb have been measured using three different dipole transitions. This state was recently shown to have a comparatively large hyperfine magnetic octupole splitting, and thus a puzzlingly large magnetic octupole moment. The measurement is performed using collinear laser spectroscopy on a fast atomic beam, which provides a straightforward route to probing long-lived metastable atomic states with high resolution. From the combined analysis of all three lines we find no significant evidence for a nonzero octupole moment in $^{173}\mathrm{Yb}$.
Determination of macro, micro nutrient and trace element concentrations in Indian medicinal and vegetable leaves using instrumental neutron activatio…
1999
Abstract Leafy samples often used as medicine in the Indian Ayurvedic system and vegetables were analyzed for 20 elements (As, Ba, Br, Ca, Ce, Cr, Cs, Co, Eu, Fe, K, La, Na, Rb, Sb, Sc, Sm, Sr, Th, Zn) by employing Instrumental Neutron Activation Analysis (INAA). The samples were irradiated at the 100 kW TRIGA-MAINZ nuclear reactor and the induced activities were counted by gamma ray spectrometry using an efficiency calibrated high resolution High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector. The concentration of the elements in the medicinal and vegetable leaves and their biological effects on human beings are discussed.
Spherical top data system (STDS) software for the simulation of spherical top spectra
1998
Abstract The Spherical Top Data System (STDS) software package for the simulation of spherical top spectra is presented. It consists of a single UNIX script with self-explanatory arguments allowing the non-expert user to calculate spectra from the results of the high resolution analyses performed over the recent decades on this type of molecules. More than one hundred parameter files are presently available including various band systems of 16 molecular species (among which methane is the most documented) and various types of calculations: rovibrational energy levels, i.r. absorption, Raman scattering and Stark coefficients. STDS is freely accessible by anonymous ftp at jupiter.u-bourgogne.…
Water status modelling : impact of local rainfall variability in Burgundy (France)
2016
6 pages; International audience; Water status is a key factor in vine development and berry ripening. Water status is strongly affected byenvironmental parameters such as soil and climate. Whereas at local scale the soil variability is frequentlyaccounted for, little scientific reports are available concerning the impact of local rainfall variability ongrapevine water status. In order to accurately register the space and time variations of rainfall at local scale, adense rain-gauges network has been installed in Burgundy. It is composed of 45 rain-gauges over a 28 km² area.Rainfall data collected by each rain-gauge in 2014 and 2015 was used as input variables in the grapevine waterbalance m…
