Polymeric stationary phase,based on (R,R)‐tartramide and bisphenol S,with potential chiral properties

A new polymeric stationary phase with potential chiral properties, obtained by the chemical modification of the parent copolymer of dimethacrylate esters of bisphenol S and divinylbenzene, is presented. Hydroxyl functional groups present in the copolymer chemical structure are blocked by optically active selectors of (R,R)‐tartramide derivatives. The influence of the chemical modification of the parent copolymer on its porous structure has been studied. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 42: 2566–2574, 2004

Molecular transient effects in K-band spectroscopy

The time dependence of microwave transient absorption and emission was measured forJ=2←1 of the OCS molecule under on- and off-resonant conditions by the technique of Stark switching. The results are analyzed with the theory of a coherent electromagnetic wave interacting with a two-level quantum system through the electric dipole interaction to obtain the pressure dependence of the relaxation timesT ₂ and in consequence the pressure broadening parameterC _w=26.7±0.9 (μs·mTorr)^?1 has been obtained.     

A Comparison of the Experimental and ab Initio Values of theO NMR Chemical Shifts in the Carbonyl Group

New experimental and theoretical results are presented for the NMR shielding of oxygen in the carbonyl group. The experimental values clearly demonstrate that the solvent effects are very significant. The new results for the chemical shifts are in better agreement than the previous literature data with the corresponding ab initio values calculated for isolated molecules.     

Invariance of selfinjective algebras of quasitilted type under stable equivalences

We prove that the class of finite dimensional selfinjective algebras over a field which admit Galois coverings by the repetitive algebras of the quasitilted algebras, with Galois groups generated by compositions of the Nakayama automorphisms with strictly positive automorphisms, is invariant under stable and derived equivalences.

Field emission microscope investigation of oxide formation on Mo field emitters

The initial stages of oxide formation on Mo field emitter tips have been examined with the field emission microscopy and field electron spectroscopy. The oxide formed in situ on Mo tips by thermal treatment in pure oxygen atmosphere was found to be non-uniform with little evidence for coherent structure. The electron spectroscopy results are discussed in terms of the hypothesis that the emission process is a hot-electron emission.     

On the Glivenko-Cantelli problem in stochastic programming: Mixed-integer linear recourse

Expected recourse functions in linear two-stage stochastic programs with mixed-integer second stage are approximated by estimating the underlying probability distribution via empirical measures. Under mild conditions, almost sure uniform convergence of the empirical means to the original expected recourse function is established.
