Molar extinction coefficients of solutions of some organic compounds

Molar extinction coefficients of aqueous solutions of some organic compounds, viz. formamide (CH₃NO),N-methylformamide (C₂H₅NO),NN-dimethylformamide (C₃H₇NO),NN-dimethylacetamide (C₄H₉NO), 1,4-dioxane (C₄H₈O₂₄), succinimide (C₄H₅NO₂) and solutions of acetamide (C₂H₅NO) and benzoic acid (C₇H₆O₂) in 1,4-dioxane (C₄H₈O₂) have been determined by narrow beam γ-ray transmission method at 81, 356, 511, 662, 1173 and 1332 keV. The experimental values of mass attenuation coefficients of these compounds have been used to calculate effective atomic numbers and electron densities. The additivity rule earlier used for aqueous solution has been extended to non-aqueous (1,4-dioxane) solutions.     

Numerical analysis of reversible A B C reaction-diffusion systems

We develop an effective numerical method of studying large-time properties of reversible reaction-diffusion systems of type A + B ↔ C with initially separated reactants. Using it we find that there are three types of asymptotic reaction zones. In particular we show that the reaction rate can be locally negative and concentrations of species A and B can be nonmonotonic functions of the space coordinate x, locally significantly exceeding their initial values.

Determination of Hydrogen Single Ion Activity Coefficients in Aqueous HCl Solutions at 25°C

The single ion activity coefficients of hydrogen and chloride ions in aqueous HCl solutions have been estimated at 25°C at concentrations up to 1 mol-kg^–1, using potentiometric measurements with ion-selective electrodes and appropriate calibration procedures. Two methods are described for an internal calibration of the electrodes in the extended Debye–Hückel concentration range. The results are compared to the conventional pH calibration with external buffer solutions. Since the latter calibration method does not account for the liquid junction potential E _J which arises at the reference electrode, the resulting activity coefficients are quite different in HCl solutions of higher concentration. These differences between internal and external calibration decrease significantly, when a correction for E _J is introduced into the conventional pH calibration. Hence, in solutions of higher ionic strength the accuracy of the conventional pH electrode calibration using buffer solutions is very limited, when exact H⁺ activities are required. The consistency of the results indicates that the liquid junction potentials in the examined systems calculated by the Henderson/Bates approximation are of reasonable precision.     

Temperature dependence of pressure broadening of NH3 perturbed by H2 and N2

The temperature dependence of pressure broadening of 134 rovibrational transitions of several branches in the ν₄ and 2ν₂ bands of ammonia perturbed by H₂ and N₂ has been measured using a high-resolution Fourier transform spectrometer. The temperature range covered during the experiments was between 235 and 296 K. The pressure-broadening linewidths were obtained using the method of multipressure fitting to the measured shapes of the lines. These broadenings were also calculated using a semiclassical model leading to a reasonable agreement with the observations and reproduces well the strong systematic experimental J and K quantum number dependencies. The retrieved values of the linewidths, along with those previously determined from the spectra at room temperature, were used to derive the temperature dependence of both H₂ and N₂ broadening of NH₃ lines. The broadening coefficients were shown to fit closely the well-known exponential law. For both experimental and theoretical results, the temperature exponent n has been obtained. Careful inspection of the experimental values shows that, contrary to the linewidths, the coefficient n is nearly K independent within each J multiplet. Also for a given J it does not seem to exhibit any noticeable variation with the type of rotational transition. On the other hand, the calculated n values exhibit a strong J and K systematic dependencies. n increases with K for a given J, decreases with J for a given K and are independent of the type of rotational transition.

The completely positive and doubly nonnegative completion problems

We prove the following. Let G be an undirected graph. Every partially specified symmetric matrix, the graph of whose specified entries is G and each of whose fully specified submatrices is completely positive (equal to BB^T for some entrywise nonnegative matrix B), may be completed to a completely positive matrix if and only if G is a block-clique graph (a chordal graph in which distinct maximal cliques overlap in at most one vertex). The same result holds for matrices that are doubly nonnegative (entrywise nonnegative and positive semidefinite).     

Continuous Selectors of Fixed Point Sets of Multifunctions with Decomposable Values

Existence theorems of continuous selectors whose values are fixed points of multivalued contractions are proved. As an application, the existence of continuous selectors to generalized solution sets of partial differential inclusions, depending on a parameter, is obtained.     

Frequent oscillation in a nonlinear partial difference equation

This paper is concerned with a class of nonlinear delay partial difference equations with variable coefficients, which may change sign. By making use of frequency measures, some new oscillatory criteria are established. This is the first time oscillation of these partial difference equations is discussed by employing frequency measures.
