Estudio anatómico-histológico de las flores del endemismo Lamottea diania (Asteraceae) y de los efectos del ozono troposférico sobre su desarrollo.

"Estudio anatómico-histológico de las flores del endemismo Lamottea diania (Asteraceae) y de los efectos del ozono troposférico sobre su desarrollo". Lilloa 53 (2). Plantas del endemismo Lamottea diania se expusieron en cámaras OTC (Open Top Chambers) a aire ambiente filtrado y a aire ambiente no filtrado más 30 ppb de ozono para observar el efecto de este contaminante sobre el desarrollo de sus flores, particularmente sobre su androceo. Hemos comprobado, mediante estudios de microscopía óptica y electrónica, que el ozono afecta el proceso de desarrollo y maduración de los estambres y del polen. Las anteras se ven afectadas, en unos casos al abortar algunos estambres en su desarrollo y, en …

Estimation of Vegetation Structure Parameters From SMAP Radar Intensity Observations

2021

In this article, we present a multipolarimetric estimation approach for two model-based vegetation structure parameters (shape A and orientation distribution ψ of the main canopy elements). The approach is based on a reduced observation set of three incoherent (no phase information) polarimetric backscatter intensities (|S HH | 2 , |S HV | 2 , and |S VV | 2 ) combined with a two-parameter (A P and ψ) discrete scatterer model of vegetation. The objective is to understand whether this confined set of observations contains enough information to estimate the two vegetation structure parameters from the L-band radar signals. In order to disentangle soil and vegetation scattering influences on th…

Passive RFID Strain-Sensor Based on Meander-Line Antennas

2011

The processing of backscattered signals coming from RFID tags is potentially useful to detect the physical state of the tagged object. It is here shown how to design a completely passive UHF RFID sensor for strain monitoring starting from a flexible meander-line dipole whose shape factor and feed section are engineered to achieve the desired sensing resolution and dynamic range. This class of devices is low-cost, promises sub-millimeter resolution and may found interesting applications in the Structural Health Monitoring of damaged structures and vehicles as well as during extreme and adverse events.

The accuracy of molecular dipole moments in standard electronic structure calculations

2000

Abstract A systematic investigation has been carried out of the accuracy of calculated molecular equilibrium dipole moments of 11 polar closed-shell molecules, using the HF, MP2, CCSD and CCSD(T) models and correlation-consistent basis sets. Augmented basis sets are important for improving the basis-set convergence, but the quality of the results depends more on the correlation treatment than on the cardinal number of the basis set. Augmented triple-zeta basis sets are sufficient for most calculations. The mean absolute error of the HF calculations is 0.16 D, which is reduced at the MP2 and CCSD levels to 0.048 and 0.025 D, respectively. The CCSD(T) errors are small – typically

The electronic spectrum of pyrrole

1999

The electronic spectrum of pyrrole has been investigated by performing calculations using a hierarchy of coupled-cluster models consisting of CCS, CC2, CCSD, and CC3. Basis-set effects have been investigated by carrying out calculations using correlation-consistent basis sets augmented with functions especially designed for the description of Rydberg states. Oscillator strengths, excited state dipole moments, and second moments of the electronic charge distributions have been used to characterize the electronic transitions and final states. Structures and vibrational frequencies have been calculated for a few selected states, and the importance of distinguishing between vertical and adiabat…

A Novel Energy Harvester for Powering Small UAVs: Performance Analysis, Model Validation and Flight Results

2019

The proposed work aims at exploring and developing new strategies to extend mission parameters (measured as travel distance and mission duration (MD)) of a new class of unmanned vehicles, named Micro Air Vehicles (MAVs). In this paper, a new analytical model, identifying all factors, which determine the MAV power consumption, is presented. Starting from the new model, the design of a nanoarray energy harvester, based on plasmonics nano-antenna technology is proposed. The preliminary study was based on a 22,066,058 22,066,058 &times

Theoretical absorption and emission spectra of 1H- and 2H-benzotriazole

2003

Excitation energies, dipole moments, and transition properties for the lowest-lying 1(π, π*) and 1(n, π*) electronic states of two benzotriazole tautomers have been studied at the complete active space (CAS) SCF and multiconfigurational second-order perturbation (CASPT2) levels. With these results, the UV absorption spectra of 1H- and 2H-benzotriazole were first described individually, and then they were considered simultaneously in order to better understand the experimental, observed spectrum of benzotriazole. Aspects of the fluorescence of the compound have been also analyzed. The spectrum of benzotriazole is finally related to those of other azo-compounds.

A computational study of some electric and magnetic properties of gaseous BF3 and BCl3

2005

We present the results of an extended computational study of the electric and magnetic properties connected to Cotton-Mouton birefringences, on the trifluoro- and trichloroborides in the gas phase. The electric dipole polarizabilities, magnetizabilities, quadrupole moments, and higher-order hypersusceptibilities—expressed as quadratic and cubic frequency-dependent response functions—are computed within Hartree-Fock, density-functional, and coupled-cluster response theories employing singly and doubly augmented correlation-consistent basis sets and London orbitals in the magnetic property calculations. The results, which illustrate the capability of time-dependent density-functional theory f…
