Thermodynamics of binary mixtures: Volumes, heat capacities, and dilution enthalpies for then-pentanol+2-methyl-2-butanol system
1983
The densities, heat capacities, and dilution enthalpies ofn-pentanol+2-methyl-2-butanol mixtures have been measured, in many cases as a function of temperature, over the complete mole fraction range. Excesses thermodynamic properties, apparent and partial molar heat capacities, volumes and expansibilities were derived. The concentration and temperature dependences of these functions are discussed in terms of the variations of the structure of the system caused by the participation of the two alcohol molecules (with quite different steric hindrance of the alkyl chain around the-OH group) in the dynamic intermolecular association process through hydrogen bonding.
Isobaric vapor-liquid equilibria for binary systems composed of octane, decane, and dodecane at 20 kPa
1996
Vapor−liquid equilibria were measured for binary systems of octane + decane, decane + dodecane, and octane + dodecane at 20.00 kPa using a recirculating still. The results are thermodynamically consistent according to the point-to-point consistency test, and deviation from ideal behavior is small for all systems.
Solid Solutions in the Xanthone–Thioxanthone Binary System: How Well Are Similar Molecules Discriminated in the Solid State?
2020
The binary system of xanthone–thioxanthone has been explored, showing that two solid solutions (formed based on xanthone and thioxanthone parent structures, respectively) exist for this system. One...
ChemInform Abstract: New Binary Antimonide Hf5Sb3 - Differences and Similarities to the Zr Antimonides.
2010
Abstract Hf5Sb3 can be prepared by arc-melting of hafnium and previously synthesized HfSb2. It crystallizes like the high-temperature modification of Zr5Sb3 in the Y5Bi3 structure type, space group Pnma, Z=4, a=740.75(9) pm, b=871.8(1) pm, c=1073.6(1) pm, V=693.3(1) 106pm3. An antimonide analogous to the low-temperature form of Zr5Sb3 was not obtained during our investigations. In the structure of Hf5Sb3, the Hf atoms form a three-dimensional network with numerous short Hf–Hf contacts, including the Sb atoms in severely distorted two- and three-capped trigonal prismatic voids. Calculations of the electronic structure, performed with the extended Huckel approximation as well as the TB-LMTO-A…
Upper limits on the isotropic gravitational-wave background from Advanced LIGO and Advanced Virgo's third observing run
2021
We report results of a search for an isotropic gravitational-wave background (GWB) using data from Advanced LIGO's and Advanced Virgo's third observing run (O3) combined with upper limits from the earlier O1 and O2 runs. Unlike in previous observing runs in the advanced detector era, we include Virgo in the search for the GWB. The results are consistent with uncorrelated noise, and therefore we place upper limits on the strength of the GWB. We find that the dimensionless energy density $\Omega_{\rm GW}\leq 5.8\times 10^{-9}$ at the 95% credible level for a flat (frequency-independent) GWB, using a prior which is uniform in the log of the strength of the GWB, with 99% of the sensitivity comi…
KERNEL ESTIMATION OF THE TRANSITION DENSITY IN BIFURCATING MARKOV CHAINS
2023
We study the kernel estimator of the transition density of bifurcating Markov chains. Under some ergodic and regularity properties, we prove that this estimator is consistent and asymptotically normal. Next, in the numerical studies, we propose two data-driven methods to choose the bandwidth parameters. These methods are based on the so-called two bandwidths approach.
Time-domain effective-one-body gravitational waveforms for coalescing compact binaries with nonprecessing spins, tides and self-spin effects
2018
We present TEOBResumS, a new effective-one-body (EOB) waveform model for nonprecessing (spin-aligned) and tidally interacting compact binaries.Spin-orbit and spin-spin effects are blended together by making use of the concept of centrifugal EOB radius. The point-mass sector through merger and ringdown is informed by numerical relativity (NR) simulations of binary black holes (BBH) computed with the SpEC and BAM codes. An improved, NR-based phenomenological description of the postmerger waveform is developed.The tidal sector of TEOBResumS describes the dynamics of neutron star binaries up to merger and incorporates a resummed attractive potential motivated by recent advances in the post-Newt…
On the Bias of Syntactic Geometric Recombination in Genetic Programming and Grammatical Evolution
2015
For fixed-length binary representations as used in genetic algorithms, standard recombination operators (e.g.,~one-point crossover) are unbiased. Thus, the application of recombination only reshuffles the alleles and does not change the statistical properties in the population. Using a geometric view on recombination operators, most search operators for fixed-length strings are geometric, which means that the distances between offspring and their parents are less than, or equal to, the distance between their parents. In genetic programming (GP) and grammatical evolution (GE), the situation is different since the recombination operators are applied to variable-length structures. Thus, most r…
A Survey of Some Arithmetic Applications of Ergodic Theory in Negative Curvature
2017
This paper is a survey of some arithmetic applications of techniques in the geometry and ergodic theory of negatively curved Riemannian manifolds, focusing on the joint works of the authors. We describe Diophantine approximation results of real numbers by quadratic irrational ones, and we discuss various results on the equidistribution in \(\mathbb{R}\), \(\mathbb{C}\) and in the Heisenberg groups of arithmetically defined points. We explain how these results are consequences of equidistribution and counting properties of common perpendiculars between locally convex subsets in negatively curved orbifolds, proven using dynamical and ergodic properties of their geodesic flows. This exposition…
Central limit theorem for bifurcating Markov chains under L 2 -ergodic conditions
2021
Bifurcating Markov chains (BMC) are Markov chains indexed by a full binary tree representing the evolution of a trait along a population where each individual has two children. We provide a central limit theorem for additive functionals of BMC under L 2-ergodic conditions with three different regimes. This completes the pointwise approach developed in a previous work. As application, we study the elementary case of symmetric bifurcating autoregressive process, which justify the non-trivial hypothesis considered on the kernel transition of the BMC. We illustrate in this example the phase transition observed in the fluctuations.
