Partial oxidation of an aqueous solution of CoIICl(2).6H2O with (NH4)6[Mo7VIO24].4H2O in the presence of (NH4)2SO3.H2O and LiCl, at pH approximately 5.3, leads to isolation of the octanuclear cluster (NH4)11(Li subset[Co4IICo4III(SO3)16(NH3)8].10H2O), 1. The structure of the anion of 1 consists of a central [Co4II], almost ideal square planar unit, and a pair of symmetry-related CoIII dimers above and below the Co4II plane grafting onto the tetramer by 16 bridging sulfite groups. The [Co8(SO3)16(NH3)8]12- cluster encapsulates a lithium cation which lies at the center of the Co4II square. 相似文献
Polynomials whose coefficients are successive derivatives of a class of Jacobi polynomials evaluated at are stable. This yields a novel and short proof of the known result that the Bessel polynomials are stable polynomials. Stability-preserving linear operators are discussed. The paper concludes with three open problems involving the distribution of zeros of polynomials.
We analyze asymmetric marginal deformations of SU(2)k and SL(2,ℝ)k WZW models. These appear in heterotic string backgrounds with non‐vanishing Neveu–Schwarz three‐forms plus electric or magnetic fields, depending on whether the deformation is elliptic, hyperbolic or parabolic. Asymmetric deformations create new families of exact string vacua. The geometries which are generated in this way, deformed S3 or AdS3, include in particular geometric cosets such as S2, AdS2 or H2. Hence, the latter are consistent, exact conformal sigma models, with electric or magnetic backgrounds. We discuss various geometric and symmetry properties of the deformations at hand as well as their spectra and partition functions, with special attention to the supersymmetric AdS2 × S2 background. We also comment on potential holographic applications. 相似文献
The physicochemical behavior of the phenyl-n-alkanoate (PhenCx) and cyclohexyl-n-alkanoate (CyclohexCx) series has been investigated, supporting previous work on the understanding of hydrotropes (Hopkins Hatzopoulos, M.; Eastoe, J.; Dowding, P.J.; Rogers, S. E.; Heenan, R.; Dyer, R. Langmuir2011, 27, 12346-12353). Electrical conductivity, surface tension, (1)H NMR, and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) were used to study adsorption and aggregation in terms of critical aggregation concentration (cac). The PhenCx series exhibited very similar d log(cac)/dn to n-alkylbenzoates (CnBenz), exhibiting two branches of behavior, with a common inflection point at four linear carbons, whereas the CyclohexCx series showed no break point. Electrical conductivity and (1)H NMR concentration scans indicate a difference in physicochemical behavior between higher and lower homologues in both the PhenCx and CyclohexCx series. Surface tension measurements with compounds belonging to either group gave typical Gibbs adsorption profiles, having d log(cac)/dn curves consistent with limiting headgroup areas in the region of (35-55 ?(2)) indicating monolayer formation. SANS profiles showed no evidence for aggregates below the electrical conductivity determined cac values, inferring an "on-off" mode of aggregation. Analyses of SANS profiles was consistent with charged ellipsoidal aggregates, persisting from lower through to higher homologues in both the PhenCx and CyclohexCx series. 相似文献
Applying an extending force F along the end‐to‐end vector r of a chain enlarges the initial size ρi ∼ |ri| leading to a final state with ρf larger than ρi. Assuming a power law dependence of the size ρ ∼ Nν of the chain on its length N, at the two different states with different exponents νi and νf, a scaling relationship is derived between the measure of the extending force F and the extension ρ of the chain. The exponent γ of the force/extension relation, ρ ∼ Fγ, depends on both exponents νi and νf of the initial and the final states. A relation between γ and the exponents νi and νf is derived which permits the explanation of previous results and predicts some more. The scaling behavior is checked with the exactly soluble model of a random walk under a force.
The aim of this study is to examine students’ ability in interpreting and constructing plane representations of 3D shapes, and to trace categories of students that reflect different types of behaviour in representing 3D shapes. To achieve this goal, one test was administered to 279 students in grades 5–9, and forty of them were interviewed. The results of the study showed that the representation of 3D shapes is composed of two general representing/cognitive abilities, coding and decoding. Decoding refers to interpreting the structural elements and geometrical properties of 3D shapes in plane representations, while coding refers to constructing plane representations and nets of 3D shapes, and translating from one representational mode to another. A mixed-method analysis showed that four categories of students can be identified that describe four types of behaviour and explain students’ reasoning patterns in representing 3D shapes. 相似文献
Supported Au nanoparticles on TiO2 catalyze the unprecedented dehydrogenative disilylation of monosubstituted and 1,1-disubstituted allenes by Et2SiH2 exclusively on the terminal double bond in a stereoselective manner. Treatment of the disilylation products with H2O, in a one-pot operation also catalyzed by Au/TiO2, leads to 3-alkylidene-1,2,5-oxadisilolanes, an unknown class of heterocyclic compounds, which are excellent scaffolds for the stereoselective synthesis of alkenes under Hiyama-type cross-coupling conditions. 相似文献
A graceful labeling of a graph G=(V,E) assigns |V| distinct integers from the set {0,…,|E|} to the vertices of G so that the absolute values of their differences on the |E| edges of G constitute the set {1,…,|E|}. A graph is graceful if it admits a graceful labeling. The forty-year old Graceful Tree Conjecture, due to Ringel and Kotzig, states that every tree is graceful.We prove a Substitution Theorem for graceful trees, which enables the construction of a larger graceful tree through combining smaller and not necessarily identical graceful trees. We present applications of the Substitution Theorem, which generalize earlier constructions combining smaller trees. 相似文献
A rheological law based on the concept of cooperatively sheared flow zones is presented, in which the effective thermodynamic state variable controlling flow is identified to be the isoconfigurational shear modulus of the liquid. The law captures Newtonian as well as non-Newtonian viscosity data for glass-forming metallic liquids over a broad range of fragility. Acoustic measurements on specimens deformed at a constant strain rate correlate well with the measured steady-state viscosities, hence verifying that viscosity has a unique functional relationship with the isoconfigurational shear modulus. 相似文献
