Topologically nontrivial field configurations in noncommutative geometry

In the framework of noncommutative geometry we describe spinor fields with nonvanishing winding number on a truncated (fuzzy) sphere. The corresponding field theory actions conserve all basic symmetries of the standard commutative version (space isometries and global chiral symmetry), but due to the noncommutativity of the space the fields are regularized and they contain only a finite number of modes.Part of the Project P8916-PHY of the Fonds zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung in Österreich.     

Resonances in low-energy rare-gas atom scattering

Precise values of energies and widths of low-lying resonances in some rare-gas atom systems (Ar-Ar, Ne-Kr, Ne-Xe) are reported.     

Electron diffraction studies of the molecular structures of iron(II) chloride and iron(II) bromide. Evidence on the structure of dimeric species Fe2Br4

An expression for the extreme values of mean-square amplitudes of vibrations in polyatomic molecules has been derived which permits estimation of the mean-square amplitude without solving the vibrational problem. This expression can be improved for the stretching and scissoring modes when the assignment of frequencies is known. In turn, the corresponding vibrational frequency may be estimated from the experimental value of the mean-square amplitude. The mean-square amplitudes of the butadiene-1,3 molecule are considered as an example.     

Analytische Aspekte der Oxydation organischer Stickstoffverbindungen mit Chromsäure. XXVIII

Zusammenfassung Die schon früher beschriebene gasvolumetrische Methode zur N-N-Gruppenbestimmung durch Oxydationsaufschluß mit Chromsäure wurde zur Bestimmung des heterocyklischen Stickstoffes in Indazolinonderivaten mit Erfolg benützt und dadurch weiter die allgemeine Anwendbarkeit der Methode bestätigt. Enthält die Substanz gleichzeitig Amino- oder Nitrogruppen, können diese aus derselben Einwaage als Ammoniak bzw. Salpetersäure bestimmt werden.

Analytical aspects of the oxidation of organic nitrogen compounds with chromic acid

Summary The gas volumetric method for determining N-N groups by oxidative fusion with chromic acid (which has already been described previously) was successfully employed to determine the heterocyclic nitrogen in indazolinone derivatives. The general applicability of the method was thereby confirmed. If the substance contains amino or nitro groups at the same time, these can be determined in the same sample as ammonia or nitric acid.
