Gallium-, Indium-Mangan- und Thallium-Rhenium-Carbonylverbindungen

Gallium-, Indium-Manganese-, and Thallium-Rhenium Carbonyl Compounds Compounds of type Na{Cl_4?nM[Mn(CO)₅]_n} (M ? Ga, In; n = 1, 2, 3) were prepared by reaction of the Lewis acids MCl₃ and NaMn(CO)₅. Instead of the sodium salts were obtained the compounds (C₃H₇CO₂)₂InMn(CO)₄L (Indium atom with the coordination number 5) from Indium(III) butyrate with two carboxylate groups bonded as chelate ligands and NaMn(CO)₄L [L ? CO, P(C₆H₅)₃] in the molar ratio 1:1. By reacting TlCl with NaRe(CO)₅ i.r. spectroscopic measurements of the solution pointed out the intermediate product TlRe(CO)₅, which was unstable against a disproportionation reaction into Tl and Tl[Re(CO)₅]₃. The last named compound delivered as a thermal decomposition product Re₂(CO)₈[μ-TlRe(CO)₅]₂. I.r. bands of the new compounds were assigned.     

Gibt es gekoppelte Gas—Festkörper-Katalysen?

Zusammenfassung Die katalytische Spaltung der Ameisensäure an Natriumsulfat und Kaluimperchlorat hat keinen Einfluß auf die sehr große Umwandlungsgeschwindigkeit dieser Salze beim Umwandlungspunkt, ebensowenig auf die Umwandlungen des Thallium(I)jodids.Die sehr verzögerte Umwandlung heiß-kalt des Thalliumjodids kann durch Behandeln mit Chlorwasserstoffgas weiterhin irreversibel verzögert werden.Die Einsatztemperatur der Reaktion BaO + CuSO₄ wird durch die gleichzeitig katalysierte Zersetzung von Äthanol von 345°0 auf etwa 280°0 herabgesetzt, die der Reaktion ZnSO₄ + BaO von 340°0 auf 305°0. Im ersten Fall findet dabei eine Aktivierung der Kupferkomponente durch Reduktion, im zweiten eine solche der Bariumkomponente durch Bindung des Alkohols statt.Das Verglimmen von Eisen(III)oxydhydrat und die Zersetzung von Silberoxyd werden durch eine gleichzeitig katalysierte Oxydation von Äthanol mit Sauerstoff nicht beeinflußt.Es wird vermutet, daß die Reaktionszentren des festen Zustands zu starr sind, um durch Gaskatalyse verändert zu werden.Wir haben an dieser Stelle den Herren Prof. Dr. G. Matthäopoulos und Dr. K. Makris von Herzen zu danken, die durch die unserem Laboratorium gewährte großzügige Gastfreundschaft in ihren Institutsräumen die Durchführung der Untersuchung ermöglicht haben. Herrn Prof. G. F. Hüttig danken wir für wertvolle Diskussionen.     

TRIGLYCERIDE–METHANOL MICROEMULSIONS

Even-numbered 1-alkanols from butanol to tetradecanol were evaluated for solubilizing and microemulsifying methanol in triolein and for their effectiveness on water tolerances of the hybrid fuels. Photon correlation spectroscopy determinations indicated molecular dispersions formed rather than nonaqueous microemulsions, but the addition of water to the solubilized systems did produce certain quarternary compositions that exhibited microemulsion properties. 1-Octanol imparted optimal, whereas 1-butanol and 1-tetradecanol imparted minimal, water tolerance for the hybrid fuels. Among four isomeric octanols studied, the 1- and 4-octanols were superior to the 2- and 3-octanols for water tolerance. This superiority is attributed to stronger hydrogen bonding and greater association in the 1-and 4-isomers compared to the 2- and 3-isomers.     

Production of charged pions, kaons and antikaons in relativistic C + C and C + Au collisions

Production cross-sections of charged pions, kaons and antikaons have been measured in C+C and C+Au collisions at beam energies of 1.0 and 1.8 AGeV for different polar emission angles. The kaon and antikaon energy spectra can be described by Boltzmann distributions whereas the pion spectra exhibit an additional enhancement at low energies. The pion multiplicity per participating nucleon M(π⁺)/<A _part> is a factor of about 3 smaller in C+Au than in C+C collisions at 1.0 AGeV whereas it differs only little for the C and the Au target at a beam energy of 1.8 AGeV. The K⁺ multiplicities per participating nucleon M(K⁺)/ <A _part> are independent of the target size at 1 AGeV and at 1.8 AGeV. The K^- multiplicity per participating nucleon M(K^-)/ <A _part> is reduced by a factor of about 2 in C+Au as compared to C+C collisions at 1.8 AGeV. This effect might be caused by the absorption of antikaons in the heavy target nucleus. Transport model calculations underestimate the K^-/K⁺ ratio for C+C collisions at 1.8 AGeV by a factor of about 4 if in-medium modifications of K-mesons are neglected.

Higher-Order Convex Approximations of Young Measures in Optimal Control

The general theory of approximation of (possibly generalized) Young measures is presented, and concrete cases are investigated. An adjoint-operator approach, combined with quasi-interpolation of test integrands, is systematically used. Applicability is demonstrated on an optimal control problem for an elliptic system, together with one-dimensional illustrative calculations of various options.     

Boundary Element Methods for Maxwell Transmission Problems in Lipschitz Domains

Summary. We consider the Maxwell equations in a domain with Lipschitz boundary and the boundary integral operator A occuring in the Calderón projector. We prove an inf-sup condition for A using a Hodge decomposition. We apply this to two types of boundary value problems: the exterior scattering problem by a perfectly conducting body, and the dielectric problem with two different materials in the interior and exterior domain. In both cases we obtain an equivalent boundary equation which has a unique solution. We then consider Galerkin discretizations with Raviart-Thomas spaces. We show that these spaces have discrete Hodge decompositions which are in some sense close to the continuous Hodge decomposition. This property allows us to prove quasioptimal convergence of the resulting boundary element methods. Mathematics Subject Classification (2000):65N30
