Green Chemistry and Modern Technology

The basic principles, approaches, and early achievements of green chemistry are considered. The definition of green chemistry as a branch of chemistry that studies the laws of passing of chemical reactions and the properties of substances participating in such reactions, with the aim of acquiring basic knowledge that provides a basis for designing chemical technologies that eliminate (sharply curtail) the use and production of materials that pose a risk to the environment.     

Organic templates for the generation of inorganic materials

Mankind's fascination with shapes and patterns, many examples of which come from nature, has greatly influenced areas such as art and architecture. Science too has long since been interested in the origin of shapes and structures found in nature. Whereas organic chemistry in general, and supramolecular chemistry especially, has been very successful in creating large superstructures of often stunning morphology, inorganic chemistry has lagged behind. Over the last decade, however, researchers in various fields of chemistry have been studying novel methods through which the shape of inorganic materials can be controlled at the micro- or even nanoscopic level. A method that has proven very successful is the formation of inorganic structures under the influence of (bio)organic templates, which has resulted in the generation of a large variety of structured inorganic structures that are currently unattainable through any other method.     

稀有气体亚稳态原子与CCl4和CBr4的能量转移反应

CBr_4和CCl_4分子的解离反应前人已做了许多工作,他们分别采用射频放电、电子轰击、He~ 的传能反应等方法研究了CCl_4和CBr_4的解离反应,得到了CCI(A)、CCl~ 、CBr~ 等碎片的发射光谱。有关亚稳态原子与它们的传能反应,只有某些较简单的报道,对传能反应机理也未作深入探讨。本文研究了各种亚稳态原子He(2~3S)、Ne(~3P_(0.2))、Ar(~3P_(0.2))与CCl_4和CBr_4分子的传能反应,并对反应机理进行了初步的讨论和分析。     

Structure formation in heavy metal oxyhydrates at low rates of gel formation

Oxyhydrate gels have a hydrophilic surface, due to which they undergo destruction and secondary polymerization in aqueous media. Prolonged storage in aqueous solution gives rise to regions with selfsimilar helical ordering in gels. Structuring of this kind is also observed when synthesis is conducted under conditions that provide low gelation rates. Electromagnetic UV and visible radiation is another means to change the gel structure; it makes the oligomer species pass into the excited state, due to which one of the directions of structuring becomes dominant. This work summarizes the results of computer simulation of gel agglomerates. For oxyhydrate systems, helical ordering was found to be one of the local energy minima. The units of a macrohelix can lie at various angles relative to one another, and they can change, after absorption of energy, the helix pitch and the order of elements in the helix.     

The Discrete Approximation of Continuous-state Nonlinear Branching Processes in Lévy Random Environments北大核心CSCD

In this paper, we establish the discrete approximation of continuous-state nonlinear branching processes in Lévy random environments by using tightness and convergence sequence in infinite dimensional product space via stochastic differential equations. Taking α-stable branching as an example, the conditions which are given to discretize continuous-state nonlinear branching processes in Lévy random environments are verified. © 2022 Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Damage spreading in a single-component irreversible reaction process: Dependence of the system's immunity on the Euclidean dimension

The spreading of a globally distributed damage, created in the stationary regime, is studied in a single-component irreversible reaction process, i.e., the BK model [Browne and Kleban,Phys. Rev. A 40, 1615 (1989)]. The BK model describes one variant of the A+AA₂ reaction process on a lattice in contact with a reservoir of A species. The BK model has a single parameter, namely the rate of arrival of A species to the lattice (Y). The model, exhibits an irreversible phase transition between a stationary reactive state with production of A₂ species and a poisoned state with the lattice fully covered by A species. The transition takes place at critical points (Y _C ) which solely depend on the Euclidean dimensiond. It is found that the system is immune ford=1 andd=2, in the sense that even 100% of initial damage is healed within a finite healing period (T _H ). Within the reactive regime,T _H diverges when approachingY _C according toT _H (Y _C –Y)^–, with 1.62 and 1.08 ford=1 andd=2, respectively. Ford=3 a frozen-chaotic transition is found close toY _s 0.4125, i.e., well inside the reactive regime 0YY _C 0.4985. Just atY _S the damageD(t) heals according toD(t) t ^–, with 0.71. For the frozen-chaotic transition atd=3 the order parameter critical exponent 0.997 is determined.     

Necessary conditions for characterization of laws via mixed sums

SupposeX andY are independent and identically distributed, and independent ofU which satisfies 0U1. Recent work has centered on finding the lawsL(X) for whichX U(X+Y) where denotes equality in law. We show that this equation corresponds to a certain projective invariance property under random rotations. Implicitly or explicitly, it has been assumed that the characteristic function ofX has an expansion property near the origin. We show that solutions may be admitted in the absence of this condition when –logU has a lattice law. A continuous version of the basic problem replaces sums with a Lévy process. Instead we consider self-similar processes, showing that a solution exists only whenU is constant, and then all processes of a given order are admitted.This research was in part supported by NSERC grant A-8466.     

On pathwise behavior of multiserver queues

In this paper, by exploiting recent results on the pathwise behavior of the workload process in single server, work conserving queues of theG/G/1/ type, we show that the workload of multiserver, work conserving queues ofG/G/m/ (m<) (andG/G/) queues satisfies an o(t) growth condition, provided that the time average of the work brought into the system is less thanm form < (and finite form=).     

Coulomb pair density matrix I

The Coulomb pair density matrixG (r, r) for attractive and repulsive potentials is not only interesting for determining the two-particle effective potentials, but it is also essential in numerical studies of quantum systems. A high-temperature approximation is obtained for logG (r, r), in the form of simple integrals or series expansions; large-distance expansions are also given.     

Coupling of the GB set property for ergodic averages

Let (Y,,,T) be an ergodic dynamical system. LetA be an nonempty subset ofL ²() such that , whereA=sup{||sȒt||₂ ,s, tA} andN(A, u) is the smallest number ofL ²()-open balls of radiusu, centered inA, enough to coverA. Let . We prove as a consequence of a more general result, thatC(A) is aGB subset ofL ²().
