The angular variations of the five-fold differential cross section obtained by using different wave functions of helium are
compared with experimental data. It is found that in the coplanar geometry two kinematical arrangements, (i) equal energy
sharing between the two ejected electrons with one of them ejected along the momentum transfer direction and the other along
varying direction and (ii) the Bethe ridge condition with fixed sum of ejected electron energies and varying angle between
them, are very sensitive to e-e correlations contained in the target wave function. This comparison has been used to show
that open-shell class of wave functions better incorporate e-e correlations than the closed-shell class. 相似文献

We present a systematic density functional theory (DFT) study of the structure and catalytic activity of group 10 (Ni, Pd, Pt) and group 11 (Cu, Ag, Au) coinage metal nanoribbons. These infinite, periodic, quasi‐one‐dimensional structures are conceptually important as intermediates between small metal clusters and close‐packed metal surfaces, and have been shown experimentally to be practical catalysts. We find that nanoribbons have significantly higher predicted H2 dissociation activity than close‐packed metal surfaces consistent with their lower coordination numbers. Computed periodic trends are reasonable, with late transition states and low barriers for H2 dissociation over late group 10 nanoribbons, suggesting their promise as practical catalysts. These trends are consistent with the isolated nanoribbons' computed molecular electrostatic potentials. Calculations also predict nearly linear Brønsted–Evans–Polanyi relationships between the nanoribbons' H2 dissociation energies and dissociation barriers. We also test new meta‐generalized gradient approximation (GGA) and hybrid DFT approximations for H2 dissociation over these nanoribbons. These new functionals increase the (generally underestimated) dissociation barriers predicted by standard GGAs, motivating their continued application in surface chemistry. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Surface behavior of the pH- and thermoresponsive amphiphilic ABCBA pentablock copolymer has been studied with respect to the environmental conditions. We demonstrate that the pentablock copolymer poly((diethylaminoethyl methacrylate)-b-(ethylene oxide)-b-(propylene oxide)-b-(ethylene oxide)-b-(diethylaminoethyl methacrylate)) possesses reversible temperature changes at the air-water interface in a narrow pH range of the water subphase. Significant diversity in the surface morphology of pentablock copolymer monolayers at different pH and temperatures observed were related to the corresponding reorganization of central and terminal blocks. Remarkable reversible variations of the surface pressure observed for the Langmuir monolayers at pH 7.4 in the course of heating and cooling between 27 and 50 degrees C is associated with conformational transformations of terminal blocks crossing the phase line in the vicinity of the lower critical solution temperature point. The observed thermoresponsive surface behavior can be exploited for modeling of the corresponding behavior of pentablock copolymers adsorbed onto various biointerfaces for intracellular delivery for deeper understanding of stimuli-responsive transformations relevant to controlled drug and biomolecules release and retention. 相似文献

A unique pH-dependent phase behavior from a copolymer micellar solution to a collapsed hydrogel with micelles ordered in a hexagonal phase was observed. Small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) was used to follow the pH-dependent structural evolution of micelles formed in a solution of a pentablock copolymer consisting of poly((diethylaminoethyl methacrylate)-b-(ethylene oxide)-b-(propylene oxide)-b-(ethylene oxide)-b-(diethylaminoethyl methacrylate)) (PDEAEM25-b-PEO100-b-PPO65-b-PEO100-b-PDEAEM25). Between pH 3.0 and pH 7.4, we observed the presence of charged spherical micelles. Increasing the pH of the micelle solution above pH 7.4 resulted in increasing the size of the micelles due to the increasing hydrophobicity of the PDEAEM blocks above their pKa of 7.6. The increase in size of the spherical micelles resulted in a transition to a cylindrical micelle morphology in the pH range 8.1-10.5, and at pH >11, the copolymer solution undergoes macroscopic phase separation. Indeed, the phase separated copolymer sediments and coalesces into a hydrogel structure that consists of 25-35 wt % water. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) clearly indicated that the hydrogel has a hexagonal ordered phase. Interestingly, the process is reversible, as lowering of the pH below 7.0 leads to rapid dissolution of the solid into homogeneous solution. We believe that the hexagonal structure in the hydrogel is a result of the organization of the cylindrical micelles due to the increased hydrophobic interactions between the micelles at 70 degrees C and pH 11. Thus we have developed a pH-/temperature-dependent, reversible hierarchically self-assembling block copolymer system with structures spanning nano- to microscale dimensions. 相似文献

The aim of this brief report is to study the behaviour of sheath structure in a multi-component plasma with dust-neutral collisions.
The plasma consists of electrons, ions, micron size negatively charged dust particles and neutrals. The sheath-edge potential
and sheath width are calculated for collisionally dominated sheath. Comparison of collisionless and collisionally dominated
sheath are made. 相似文献

The symmetric sinc-Galerkin method developed by Lund, when appliedto the second-order self-adjoint boundary value problem, givesrise to a symmetric coefficient matrix has a special structureso that it can be advantageously used in solving the discretesystem. In this paper, we employ the preconditioned conjugategradient method with banded matrices as preconditioners. Weprove that the condition number of the preconditioned matrixis uniformly bounded by a constant independent of the size ofthe matrix. In particular, we show that the solution of an n-by-ndiscrete symmetric sinc-Galerkin system can be obtained in O(nlog n) operations. We also extend our method to the self-adjointelliptic partial differential equation. Numerical results aregiven to illustrate the effectiveness of our fast iterativesolvers. 相似文献

The angular distribution of the five-fold differential cross section for the electron impact double ionization of He (21
S) and He (23
S) has been studied. The kinematical conditions for maxima/minima in the angular distribution for the two cases have been compared.
The two-step process for the double ionization is found to contribute very little in the triplet case. 相似文献

Microwave absorption studies have been carried out on MgB2 superconductor using a standard X-band EPR spectrometer. The modulated low-field microwave absorption signals recorded for
polycrystalline (grain size ∼ 10 μm) samples suggested the absence of weak-link character. The field dependent direct microwave
absorption has been found to obey a ✓H dependence with two different slopes, which indicated a transition from strongly pinned lattice to flux flow regime. 相似文献

The recently developed correlation consistent Composite Approach for transition metals (ccCA-TM) was utilized to compute the thermochemical properties for a collection of 225 inorganic molecules containing first row (3d) transition metals, ranging from the monohydrides to larger organometallics such as Sc(C(5)H(5))(3) and clusters such as (CrO(3))(3). Ostentatiously large deviations of ccCA-TM predictions stem mainly from aging and unreliable experimental data. For a subset of 70 molecules with reported experimental uncertainties less than or equal to 2.0 kcal mol(-1), regardless of the presence of moderate multireference character in some molecules, ccCA-TM achieves transition metal chemical accuracy of ±3.0 kcal mol(-1) as defined in our earlier work [J. Phys. Chem. A2007, 111, 11269-11277] by giving a mean absolute deviation of 2.90 kcal mol(-1) and a root-mean-square deviation of 3.91 kcal mol(-1). As subsets are constructed with decreasing upper limits of reported experimental uncertainties (5.0, 4.0, 3.0, 2.0, and 1.0 kcal mol(-1)), the ccCA-TM mean absolute deviations were observed to monotonically drop off from 4.35 to 2.37 kcal mol(-1). In contrast, such a trend is missing for DFT methods as exemplified by B3LYP and M06 with mean absolute deviations in the range 12.9-14.1 and 10.5-11.0 kcal mol(-1), respectively. Salient multireference character, as demonstrated by the T(1)/D(1) diagnostics and the weights (C(0)(2)) of leading electron configuration in the complete active self-consistent field wave function, was found in a significant amount of molecules, which can still be accurately described by the single reference ccCA-TM. The ccCA-TM algorithm has been demonstrated as an accurate, robust, and widely applicable model chemistry for 3d transition metal-containing species with versatile bonding features. 相似文献
