A reaction–diffusion system consisting of one, two or three chemical species and taking place in an arbitrary number of spatial
dimensions cannot exhibit Turing instability if none of the reaction steps express cross‐inhibition. A corollary of this result
– obtained by elementary calculations – underlines the importance of nonlinearity in the formation of stationary structures,
a kind of self‐organization on a chemical basis. Relations to global stability of reaction–diffusion systems, and results
on multispecies systems are also mentioned. The statements are not restricted to mass action type models. As a by‐product,
the solution of a basic inverse problem of formal kinetics is also presented which extends a previous result by Hárs and Tóth
(1981) to models with arbitrary – including rational – functions as reaction rates so often occurring, e.g., in enzyme kinetics.

We present a new class of techniques for the solution of the chemical and phase equilibria problem for reacting species in
a closed system. The minimisation of the Gibbs free energy for all the species in the system is conducted using the technique
of simulated annealing (SA). The SA objective function incorporates non‐ideal equations of state. This new approach is demonstrably
able to solve multi‐species and multi‐phase LTCE problems in ideal‐gas solutions, ideal solutions and mixtures of ideal and
non‐ideal solutions.

We present a new analytic method which allows one to interpret a mass‐action kinetic reaction of arbitrary molecularity as
the limit case of a sequence of bimolecular steps. Together with other technics (transformation of an arbitrary ODE into a
polynomial ODE [8]; transformation of a polynomial ODE into a form which can be interpreted as a mass‐action kinetic system
[10]), it is thus possible to construct an at most bimolecular mass‐action kinetic system with the same dynamic behavior as
an arbitrary ODE. Furthermore, we demonstrate necessary improvements of the transformation given in [10]. Is is also shown
that an arbitrary single mass‐action kinetic reaction can be understood as a sequence of two reactions with a short‐living
intermediate. In particular, it therefore follows that an autocatalytic reaction can always be approximated by two nonautocatalytic
ones without changing the dynamics of the whole system.

Popular nuclear spectral analysis applications typically use either the results of a peak search or of the best match of a
set of linear templates as the basis for their conclusions. These well‐proven methods work well in controlled environments.
However, they often fail in cases where the critical information resides in well-masked peaks, where the data is sparse and
good statistics cannot be obtained, and where little is known about the detector that was used. These conditions are common
in emergency analysis situations, but are also common in radio‐assay situations where background radiation is high and time
is limited. To address these limitations, non‐linear fitting techniques have been introduced into an application called “Cambio”
suitable for public use. With this approach, free parameters are varied in iterative steps to converge to values that minimize
differences between the actual data and the approximating functions that correspond to the values of the parameters. For each
trial nuclide, a single parameter is varied that often has a strongly non‐linear dependence on other, simultaneously varied
parameters for energy calibration, attenuation by intervening matter, detector resolution, and peak-shape deviations. A brief
overview of this technique and its implementation is presented, together with an example of its performance and differences
from more common methods of nuclear spectral analysis. 相似文献

A mathematical proof against the theoretical foundation of the Elber–Karplus (EK) global reaction path‐following method and
the improvements based on the EK strategy have been discussed. According to our arguments the minimization of the average
value of the potential energy along a path to two energy minima never defines a reaction path (RP) unless in the chemically
irrealistic situation where the points of the curve joining the two minima of reactants and products have constant energy
values. Therefore, finding approximate RPs by EK‐strategies for large chemical systems or even in mathematical test examples
is impossible or at least strongly doubtful (the larger the system the more doubtful).

The kinetic equations for an electrochemical process consisting of a homogeneous first‐order chemical reaction followed by
electron transfer at the electrode surface are solved numerically, for linear sweep voltammetry under hydrodynamical conditions
in a tubular electrode. Models for both the cases involving reversible as well as irreversible electrode charge transfer reaction
are investigated. The influence on current–potential voltammograms of the experimentally measurable parameters like the potential
scan rate, axial flow rate and chemical equilibrium parameter is examined and depicted graphically.

Electrochemically modulated separations (EMS) are shown to be a rapid and selective means of extracting and concentrating
Pu from complex solutions prior to isotopic analysis by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP‐MS). This separation
is performed in a flow injection mode, on‐line with the ICP‐MS. A three‐electrode, flow‐by electrochemical cell is used to
accumulate Pu at an anodized glassy carbon electrode by redox conversion of Pu(III) to Pu (IV&VI). The entire process takes
place in 2% (v/v) (0.46 M) HNO3. No redox chemicals or acid concentration changes are required. Plutonium accumulation and release is redox dependent and
controlled by the applied cell potential. Large transient volumetric concentration enhancements can be achieved. Based on
more negative U(IV) potentials relative to Pu(IV), separation of Pu from uranium is efficient, thereby eliminating uranium
hydride interferences. EMS‐ICP‐MS isotope ratio measurement performance will be presented for femtogram to attogram level
plutonium isotope injections. 相似文献

Quantum similarity is a useful tool to establish comparisons between elements of a quantum object set and, so far applied
successfully to molecular physics, is applied here to atomic nuclei. Quantum Similarity Measures (QSM) and Indices (QSI) are
introduced to study an arbitrary set of 20 nuclei. From this study, relationships between nuclear overlap‐like self‐similarities
and size‐like properties are found. A bidimensional projection of the set is performed, and Mendeleev conjecture is invoked
to predict qualitatively some nuclear ground‐state properties, such as total binding energy per nucleon, nuclear radius, nuclear
volume, total and partial energies, etc.

Dissociative scattering of CF3+ ions in collision with a self-assembled monolayer surface of fluorinated alkyl thiol on a gold 111 crystal has been studied at low ion kinetic energies (from 29 to 159 eV) using a custom built tandem mass spectrometer with a rotatable second stage energy analyzer and mass spectrometer detectors. Energy and intensity distributions of the scattered fragment ions were measured as a function of the fragment ion mass and scattering angle. Inelastically scattered CF3+ ions were not observed even at the lowest energy studied here. All fragment ions, CF2+, CF+, F+, and C+, were observed at all energies studied with the relative intensity of the highest energy pathway, C+, increasing and that of the lowest energy pathway, CF2+, decreasing with collision energy. Also, the dissociation efficiency of CF3+ decreased significantly as the collision energy was increased to 159 eV. Energy distributions of all fragment ions from the alkyl thiol surface showed two distinct components, one corresponding to the loss of nearly all of the kinetic energy and scattered over a broad angular range while the other corresponding to smaller kinetic energy losses and scattered closer to the surface parallel. The latter process is due to delayed dissociation of collisionally excited ions after they have passed the collision region as excited parent ions. A similar study performed at 74 eV using a LiF coated surface on a titanium substrate resulted only in one process for all fragment ions; corresponding to the delayed dissociation process. The intensity maxima for these fragmentation processes were shifted farther away from the surface parallel compared to the thiol surface. A new mechanism is proposed for the delayed dissociation process as proceeding via projectile ions' neutralization to long-lived highly excited Rydberg state(s), reionization by the potential field between the collision region and entrance to the energy analyzer, and subsequent dissociation several microseconds after collisional excitation. A kinematic analysis of experimental data plotted as velocity Newton diagrams demonstrates that the delayed dissociation process results from the collisions of the ion with the bulk surface; i.e., the self-assembled monolayer surface acts as a bulk surface. A similar analysis for the highly inelastic collision processes shows that these are due to stronger collisions with a fraction of the thiol molecular chain, varying in length (mass) with the ion energy. 相似文献

Shape‐similarities of electron density clouds of molecules provide important clues concerning chemical and physical properties,
including information about their reactivities in biochemical systems. The concept of topological resolution is used for quantifying
molecular similarities: within a hierarchy of finer and cruder topologies, the crudest topology that already provides discrimination
between two objects (such as two fuzzy electron density clouds) is used to define a measure of their similarities. The finer
this topology, the more similar the two objects. This approach, the method of topological resolution‐based similarity measures
(TRBSM), can be combined with a geometrically motivated resolution‐based similarity measure (RBSM) within a metric space.
Some of the relations between these two approaches are discussed in this contribution, with special emphasis on applications
to electron densities.

A series of polymetallic complexes are being developed for use in converting solar radiation to usable chemical potential energy. The system is made up of three components: 1) A highly-absorbing (antenna) metal center which absorbs visible light but is photochemically unreactive; 2) A second metal center which undergoes a useful chemical reaction from a non-spectroscopic excited state; and 3) A bridging ligand which couples the two metal fragments and facilitates intramolecular energy transfer from the antenna to the reactive fragment. This paper will focus on optimizing the three components of the system. 相似文献

An exactly soluble base problem for atomic systems is presented which approximates the atomic Hamiltonian as a sum of identical
one‐electron operators. The eigenfunctions of the one‐electron operator consist of a radial function multiplied by a spherical
harmonic. Energies for many‐electron atoms are found by summing the one‐electron energy eigenvalues according to the Pauli
principle. These energies are rigorous lower bounds to the exact energies.

The radii of convergence of power series expansions describing energy of a molecule in external electrostatic field are investigated
usingD’Alembert ratio test, standard and generalized Cauchy–Hadamardcriteria, and Padé approximants. The corresponding coefficients
at various field and field‐gradient components, representing multipole moments and (hyper)polarizabilities and including terms
of tenth or even twentieth order, are determined using an ab initio linear responsecoupled‐cluster theory. Most calculations
are performed for the HF molecule described by the basis set of double zeta quality, while the role of basis set is discussed
by comparing the results with estimates of the radii of convergence obtained with the basis set of [5s3p2d/3s2p] quality.
Emphasis is placed on the dependence of the interval of convergence of power series expansion describing energy of a molecule
in applied electrostatic field on the nuclear geometry. The results might have important implications for various numerical
methods used to calculate electrostatic molecular properties as functions of the internuclear geometry, including the finite‐field
andfixed‐point‐charge approaches.

The destruction of methane by a nonthermal plasma in atmospheric pressure gas streams of nitrogen with variable amounts of added oxygen has been investigated. The identities and concentrations of the endproducts are determined by online FTIR spectroscopy and the plasma chemistry is interpreted using kinetic modelling. For a deposited energy of 118 kJ m–3, the destruction is 12% in nitrogen decreasing monotonically to 5% in air. The major endproducts are HCN and NH3 in nitrogen and CO, CO2, N2O, NO and NO2 for gas streams containing oxygen. The chemistry in pure nitrogen is predominantly due to reactions of electronicallyexcited nitrogen atoms, N(2D). The addition of oxygen converts the excited state nitrogen into nitrogen oxides reducing the methane destruction which then arises by O and OH reactions yielding CO and, to a lesser extent, CO2. The modelling correctly predicts the magnitude of the methane destruction as a function of added oxygen and the concentrations of the endproducts for processing in both nitrogen and air. 相似文献

A generalised Hohenberg–Kohn theorem is described in terms of the sign of the secondorder energy variation. Independently, it is also corroborated within the perturbation theoretical framework. An alternative formulation of the Hohenberg–Kohn theorem, based on the relationships involving the matrix representations of density functions and the Hamiltonian operator variations, is shown to extend the validity of the theorem to the excited states of the Hamiltonian operators possessing nondegenerate spectra. Finally, a connection with Brillouin's theorem when energy variation becomes stationary is also outlined. 相似文献

Collision-induced dissociation (CID) of ions by resonance activation in a quadrupole ion trap is usually accomplished by resonance exciting the ions to higher kinetic energy, whereby the high kinetic energy ions collide with a bath gas, such as helium or argon, inside the trap and dissociate to fragments. A new ion activation method using a well-defined rectangular wave dipolar potential formed by dividing down the trapping rectangular waveform is developed and examined herein. The mass-selected parent ions are resonance excited to high kinetic energies by simply changing the frequency of the rectangular wave dipolar potential and dissociation proceeds. A relationship between the ion mass and the activation waveform frequency is also identified and described. This highly efficient (CID) procedure can be realized by simply changing the waveform frequency of the dipolar potential, which could certainly simplify tandem mass spectrometry analysis methods.

The Millar–Wall–Charlesby empirical rule of radiation effects on polymers was theoretically examined. The theoretically calculated adiabatic potential curves of the main chain scission and side chain cleavage revealed that the effects of radiation on polymers are clearly interpreted as chemical reactions in the excited states; namely, that degradation occurs when little or no activation energy is required in the main chain cleavage reaction in the excited states, or, in other words, stabilization of the excited polymer molecule leads to the main chain cleavage. Crosslinking occurs when moderate or large activation energy is required in the main chain cleavage reaction in any electronic state and little or no activation energy is needed in the C? H bond cleavage reaction in the excited states. Therefore stabilization of the excited polymer molecule leads to the formation of a polymer radical that crosslinks. It was concluded that Millar–Wall–Charlesby's rule is exact only when the shape of the adiabatic potential curve in the ground state reflects those in the excited states. 相似文献

Combustion of brick-shaped carbonaceous materials
(carbon deposits from coke oven, coke and electrographite) was carried out
in thermobalance in static air. Analysis of kinetics of the process was carried
out using both classical (Arrhenius law) and newer (three-parametric equation)
methods. In classical approach two types of kinetic equations were used in
calculations: differential and integral. The results obtained show that, independently
on kinetic variables (α – conversion degree or m
– mass of sample) used in differential equations, kinetics of combustion
of brick-shaped carbonaceous materials is characterized by only one pair of
Arrhenius coefficients: activation energy (E)
and pre-exponential constant (A). At the
same time the integral equation demonstrates distinction in relation to methods
based on differential equations, generating higher activation energies and
separate isokinetic effect (IE). Parallel IE shows that kinetic analysis has
to encompass activation energy in connection to second coefficient, pre-exponential
constant A, depending on assumptions made
for kinetic equations. On the other hand three-parametric equation allows
describing kinetic of combustion in alternative way using only one experimental
value – initial temperature in form of point of initial oxidation (PIO)
– and also offers new methods of interpretation of the process. 相似文献

Collision-induced dissociation of the molecular ions and of some of the fragment ions foremed on ionization of methanol, ethanol and n-propnol have been studied at high energy resolution in a mass spectrometer. The translational energy lost upon collision and the kinetic energy releasedupon fragmentation of the collisionally excited species have been measured by the methods of ion kinetic energy spectromety. The results of the translational energy loss measurements compare well with excitation energies predicted for each reaction form breakdown curves showing the relative abundances of the ionsas a fuction of internal energy. This correspondence is evidebce that the ionic reactions following electron-impact excitation and those following collisional excitation with neutral molecules at relative traslational energies in the range of several kilovolts are at least qualitatively independent of the method of excitation. The occurrence of the corresponding spontaneous fragmentations in the alcohols has also been studied and the kinetic energy releases accompanying these reactions have been determined. In a few cases, metastable peaks were observed which did not increase in intensity when collision gas added and this phenomenon is associated with particular features of the reaction thermochemistry. Reactions which generally occur to very small extents in mass spectromety, such as methylene elimination, have been observed in highly excited ions. The methods developed in this study allow the decription of the thermochemistry of the reaction of highly excited ions, indlcuding the experimental determination of the partitioning of the nonfixed energy of the activated complex. This procedure complemets and extends energy partitioning studies made on metastable ions in which the partitioning of the reverse activation energy is the more readily accessible. 相似文献
