The effect of dipole-dipole interaction on zero-THz frequency polarisation

The effect of intramolecular dipole-dipole interaction on polarisation at frequencies from 0 – 10¹² Hz in dipolar media is investigated using a numerical solution of the Sturm-Liouville eigenvalue problem to which the governing Smoluchowski equation reduces. The results of Budó for the long-wavelength limit are extended to all frequencies up to the far infrared, where the predominant inertial effects are treated using a preliminary first-order correction. The numerical method of Pryce may be used to investigate much more realistic interaction potentials than the simple harmonic and cosine form considered by Budó. These simple forms are, however, sufficient to indicate that the integrated absorption intensity per molecule in the far infrared is very sensitive to dipole-dipole interaction and relative hydrodynamic drag on both interacting groups. Applications of the theory to the disordered solid and nematic phases are considered.     

Stereoelectronic control of exo/endo rate ratios in the solvolysis of 2-norbornyl p-toluenesulfonates

The variable exo/endo rate ratios observed in the solvolysis of 6-exo-substituted exo- and endo-2-norbornyl p-toluenesulfonates are due to differential transmission of polar effects in the transition state for ionization.     

Etude par RPE de l'Ion NO2−2 dans une apatite nitrée

A calcium phosphate apatite which contains some different nitrogen oxides is studied by the ESR technique. NO^2?₂ ions are evidenced and characterized. They stay in the apatite channels with their OO direction along the channel axis. ESR experiments at different temperatures show that these ions rotate around this axis when the temperature becomes higher than that of liquid nitrogen.

Fermi and Coulomb correlations in the 21 S state of the helium isoelectronic sequence

The Fermi and Coulomb holes of the 2¹ S state of the helium isoelectronic sequence are investigated. Several interesting differences between the results obtained and those which might be expected on the basis of the corresponding 2³ S state are pointed out and discussed.
