On the Weak Invariance Principle for Stationary Sequences under Projective Criteria

In this paper, we study the central limit theorem and its weak invariance principle for sums of a stationary sequence of random variables, via a martingale decomposition. Our conditions involve the conditional expectation of sums of random variables with respect to the distant past. The results contribute to the clarification of the central limit question for stationary sequences.

Interactions of thiophenes and acidophilic,thermophilic bacteria

The growth and oxygen consumption of a variety of thermophilic, acidophilic bacteria in the presence of thiophene-2-carboxylate (T2C) and dibenzothiophene (DBT) have been determined. T2C was extremely toxic to the acidophiles in comparison with neutrophiles, but appeared to be degraded by a heterotrophicSulfolobus- like thermophile. DBT proved to be unstable at high temperatures, even in the absence of bacteria, and was not a substrate for the thermophiles.     

Magnetic resonance study of (GdxY1−x)Co2 compounds

The results of magnetic resonance studies on ferrimagnetic (Gd_xY_1?x)Co₂ compounds, both below and above the Curie points, are presented. The ferrimagnetic resonance measurements show that the effective g values can be described by using the Wangsness relation. The spectroscopic splitting factors of cobalt atoms are not composition dependent. In the paramagnetic range the thermal variation of the linewidth is not linear and the g values are a function of temperature. This behavior is analyzed in correlation with the magnetic data.     

Kobalt(III)ammin-derivate einiger Reineckesalz-Analoga mit Xylidinen

Zusammenfassung Es wurden 34 neue Komplexsalze durch doppelte Umsetzung aus wäßr.-alkohol. Lösungen der folgenden Reineckeat-Analoga: [Cr(NCS)₄(m-xylidin)₂]^–, [Cr(NCS)₄(p-xyl)₂]^– und Hexammin-, Monoacido-pentammin- und Diacido-tetramminkobalt(III)-komplexsalze erhalten. Es wurden in einigen Fällen Unterschiede in physiko-chemischen Eigenschaften, wie Farbtönung, Kristallform, Löslichkeit und papierchromatographischeR _f-Werte, bei den stellungsisomeren Salzen vom Typus: Kation · [Cr(NCS)₄(xyl)₂] und auch bei den Koordinationsisomerpaaren: [Co(DH)₂(m-xyl)₂] [Cr(NCS)₄(p-xyl)₂] und [Co(DH)₂(p-xyl)₂] [Cr(NCS)₄(m-xyl)₂] usw. beobachtet.

Cobalt(III)ammine derivatives of some reineckate analogues with xylidines

34 new complex salts were prepared by double conversion of the reineckate analogues [Cr(NCS)₄(m-xylidine)₂]^–, [Cr(NCS)₄(p-xyl)₂]^–, with the hexammine-, monoacido-pentammine- and diacidotetrammine-complexes of Co(III). In some of the position and coordination isomeres differences of the standard physico-chemical properties, i.e. color, crystal form, solubility and paper chromatographyR _f-values were observed.
