It is possible to inhibit the transfer of magnetization in a system with several exchanging sites in dynamic equil., as in a mixt. of cis- and trans-ZrCl4L2 with excess free ligand L (L = (CH3O)3PO). The forward and backward reaction rates involving two se ...
Growth rates of the axisymmetric mode in vertically elongated plasmas in the Tokamak a Configuration Variable (TCV) are measured and compared with numerically calculated growth rates for the reconstructed equilibria. This comparison is made over a range of ...
In this paper, we present a new rate control mechanism for delay sensitive MPEG-2 video services over ATM networks. The rate control constraints the video bitstream to respect the three negotiated VBR ATM traffic contract parameters modelled by a dual leak ...
The growth of GaN and InxGa1-xN on c-plane sapphire substrates was carried out by molecular beam epitaxy using NH3. bl situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) was used to monitor the growth process. Oscillations of the specular beam intens ...
The aim of the present work was to investigate whether uncoupling of catabolism from anabolism, which was often obsd. in heterotrophic microorganisms under energy-sufficient growth conditions, also occurs in the autotrophic bacterium M. thermoautotrophicum ...
Decoders employing the generalized likelihood ratio test can achieve rates that can be achieved by maximum likelihood decoders on ISI channels even though they are ignorant of the channel characteristics ...
We study the problem of multiple description (MD) coding of stationary Gaussian sources with memory. First, we compute an approximate rate distortion region for these sources, which we prove to be asymptotically tight at high rates: this region generalizes ...
We investigate the accuracy of the weighted-density approximation (WDA) in predicting the dielectric response of materials from first-principles. WDA is a genuinely non-local formulation for the exchange-correlation term of density-functional theory. Still ...
This contribution presents a simple, unstructured math. model describing microbial growth in continuous culture limited by a gaseous substrate. It has been found that the parameters influencing growth are primarily the gas transfer rate and the diln. rate. ...
Enantiomerically pure beta-amino acid derivs. with the side-chains of Ala, Val, and Leu in the 2- or 3-position (β2- and β3-amino acids, resp.), as well as with substituents in both the 2- and 3-positions (β2,3-amino acids, of like-configuration) were prep ...
