X-ray Emission Spectroscopy (XES) crossover peaks were shown to be sensitive to the protonation state of solvent molecules in the Zn protein carbonic anhydrase and its model compounds. Here we extend such studies to galactose oxidase models i.e. Cu(ii) open d-shell systems, illustrating that XES combined with FEFF8 simulations reflect changes in the protonation state of the phenolate ligand for the copper center. 相似文献

Motivated by queueing systems playing a key role in the performance evaluation of telecommunication networks, we analyze in
this paper the stationary behavior of a fluid queue, when the instantaneous input rate is driven by a continuous-time Markov
chain with finite or infinite state space. In the case of an infinite state space and for particular classes of Markov chains
with a countable state space, such as quasi birth and death processes or Markov chains of the G/M/1 type, we develop an algorithm
to compute the stationary probability distribution function of the buffer level in the fluid queue. This algorithm relies
on simple recurrence relations satisfied by key characteristics of an auxiliary queueing system with normalized input rates.

We prove smoothing estimates for Schrödinger equations it∂?+x∂(a(x)x∂?)=0 with a(x)∈BV, real and bounded from below. We then bootstrap these estimates to obtain optimal Strichartz and maximal function estimates, all of which turn out to be identical to the constant coefficient case. We also provide counterexamples showing a∈BV to be in a sense a minimal requirement. Finally, we provide an application to sharp well-posedness for a generalized Benjamin-Ono equation. 相似文献
We present a nondestructive and noncontact extensometry technique, which has been developed in order to study the behavior of different materials such as polycarbonate, araldite, urethane, etc. A spectral analysis of a crossed grating marked on the surface of a specimen and recorded by a charge coupled device camera is presented. The procedure is based on the use of a bidimensional fast Fourier transform algorithm coupled with an interpolation process. It leads to the accurate determination of frequencies. Numerical simulations have been made to evaluate the strain sensitivity; it depends on both the initial phase and the number of cycles characterizing the grid. Theoretically, the strain sensitivity can reach 10-5 in best cases, but practically it is notbetter than 10-4. Several applications on different materials are presented: polyurethane, paper and cloth. 相似文献
The retention of most compounds in RPLC proceeds through a combination of several independent mechanisms. We review a series of recent studies made on the behavior of several commercial C18-bonded stationary phases and of the complex, mixed retention mechanisms that were observed in RPLC. These studies are essentially based on the acquisition of adsorption isotherm data, on the modeling, and on the interpretation of these data. Because linear chromatography deals only with the initial slope of the global, overall, or apparent isotherm, it is unable fully to describe the complete adsorption mechanism. It cannot even afford clues as to the existence of several overlaid retention mechanisms. More specifically, it cannot account for the consequences of the surface heterogeneity of the packing material. The acquisition of equilibrium data in a wide concentration range is required for this purpose. Frontal analysis (FA) of selected probes gives data that can be modeled into equilibrium isotherms of these probes and that can also be used to calculate their adsorption or affinity energy distribution (AED). The combination of these data, the detailed study of the best constants of the isotherm model, the determination of the influence of experimental parameters (e.g., buffer pH and pI, temperature) on the isotherm constants provide important clues regarding the heterogeneity of the adsorbent surface and the main properties of the adsorption mechanisms. The comparison of similar data obtained for the adsorption of neutral and ionizable compounds, treated with the same approach, and the investigation of the influence on the thermodynamics of phase equilibrium of the experimental conditions (temperature, average pressure, mobile phase composition, nature of the organic modifier, and, for ionizable compounds, of the ionic strength, the nature, the concentration of the buffer, and its pH) brings further information. This review provides original conclusions regarding retention mechanisms in RPLC. 相似文献
DUV interferometric lithography and diblock copolymer self‐organization have successfully been combined to provide a simple and highly collective nanopatterning technique enabling the organization of nanoparticles over several orders of magnitude, from nanometre to millimetre. The nanostructural changes at the surface of the polymer film after thermal annealing have been monitored by AFM and the process parameters optimized for obtaining a long‐range organization of the lamellar domains. In particular, the impact of the annealing conditions and geometric parameters of the substrate patterns have been investigated. The nanopatterns resulting from the lamellar demixion of (PS‐b‐MMA) were used for a controlled deposition of nanoparticles. The affinity of the hydrophobic particles for the PS block was demonstrated, opening new doors towards the preparation of high‐density arrays of nanoparticles with potential applications in data storage.
