Measurement of interlayer spin diffusion in the organic conductor kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]X, X = Cl, Br

László Forró, Richard Gaal, Bálint Náfrádi, Agnes Antal

In organic conductors the overlap integral between layers is small In-plane momentum scattering is rapid and transport perpendicular to the layers is expected to be blocked We present a high frequency conduction electron spin resonance (CESR) study in the ...

Experimental and theoretical studies on the mechanism of hydrogenation by η6-arene β-diketiminato -ruthenium and -osmium complexes

Paul Joseph Dyson, Andrew Douglas Phillips, Dominique Schreiber

The β-diketiminate class of ligands is renowned for the stabilization of coordinatively unsatd. main-group and transition metal complexes. Moreover, the application and scope of transition metal β-diketiminate complexes in the catalytic transformation of o ...

Hierarchical ordering of nests in a joint mode and destination choice model

Jeffrey Newman

This paper seeks to explore the relationship between mode and destination choice in an integrated nested choice model. A fundamental argument can be made that in certain circumstances, the ordering of choices should be reversed from the usual sequence of d ...

A spatial queuing model for the emergency vehicle districting and location problem

Nikolaos Geroliminis

Emergency response systems in urban areas should be located to ensure adequate coverage and rapid response time. We develop a model for locating emergency vehicles on urban networks considering both spatial and temporal demand characteristics such as the p ...

Energy Management for Indoor Hovering Robots

Dario Floreano, Jean-Christophe Zufferey, James Roberts

Flying has an advantage when compared to ground based locomotion, as it simplifies the task of overcoming obstacles and allows for rapid coverage of an area while also providing a birds-eye-view of the environment. One of the key challenges that has preven ...
