Organic SIMS with single massive gold projectile: Ion yield enhancement by silver metallization

The yield of CN from glycine rises from one CN per projectile impact to two when the sample is covered with a nominally 1 nm thick layer of silver. These yields were obtained for bombardment with Au₄₀₀⁴⁺ projectile with 136 keV impact energy. A multitude of CN-based clusters, e.g. Ag_xO_y(CN)_z are produced concurrently. As a result, a total of three CN-based secondary ions are generated per projectile impact. The exceptionally high yield for CN is of interest for biological SIMS.     

Optimization of the synthesis of non-symmetrical alkyl dimethyl sulfonium halides

This work is aimed at the optimization of the yield and purity of non-symmetrical trialkyl sulfonium halide salts. The effects of parameters such as solvent, temperature and concentration were studied. The products were carefully analyzed and the crystal structure of [{n-CH₃(CH₂)₁₅}(CH₃)₂S]Br determined. The overall aim of the present study is future syntheses of low-dimensional magnetic materials.     

A geometric formula for Haefliger knots

Haefliger has shown that a smooth embedding of the (4k−1)-sphere in the 6k-sphere can be knotted in the smooth sense. In this paper, we give a formula with which we can detect the isotopy class of such a Haefliger knot. The formula is expressed in terms of the geometric characteristics of an extension, analogous to a Seifert surface, of the given embedding. In particular, the Hopf invariant associated to the extension plays a crucial role. This leads us to a new characterisation of Haefliger knots.     

Group classification of unsteady boundary layer equations of a class of non-Newtonian fluids

Two dimensional unsteady boundary layer equations of a general model of non-Newtonian fluids were investigated in this study. In this model, the shear stress is taken as an arbitrary function of the velocity gradient. Group classification of the equations with respect to shear stress is done using two different approaches: (1) classical theory (2) equivalence transformations. Both approaches yield identical results. It is found that the principle Lie Algebra extends only for cases of Newtonian and Power-Law flows.     

Spectral enhancement of Polish vowels to improve their identification by hearing impaired listeners

Abnormalities in the cochlear function usually cause broadening of the auditory filters which reduces the speech intelligibility. An attempt to apply a spectral enhancement algorithm has been undertaken to improve the identification of Polish vowels by subjects with cochlear-based hearing-impairment. The identification scores of natural (unprocessed) vowels and spectrally enhanced (processed) vowels has been measured for hearing-impaired subjects. It has been found that spectral enhancement improves vowel scores by about 10% for those subjects, however, a wide variation in individual performance among subjects has been observed. The overall vowels identification scores obtained were 85% for natural vowels and 96% for spectrally enhanced vowels.     

Letter: Note on Invariants of the Weyl Tensor

Algebraically special gravitational fields are described using algebraic and differential invariants of the Weyl tensor. A type III invariant is also given and calculated for Robinson-Trautman spaces.     

The magnetization behavior of nanocrystalline permanent magnets based on the Stoner–Wohlfarth Model

The magnetization behavior in nanocrystalline permanent magnets has been investigated using mean field Stoner–Wohlfarth model. The model is comparatively simple but allows the numerical treatment of extended nanostructures. The predominant intergrain exchange coupling is expressed by a mean field constant N_m in spite of no explicit relationship between N_m and the microstructure. By this model, the experimental phenomena, such as the remanence enhancement, the shape of demagnetization curve, the irreversible magnetization, the exchange bias field and their respective temperature dependence, can be well explained. The N_m dependence of magnetic properties has been extensively discussed in the present paper.
