Full-combination multi-band approach has been proposed in the literature and performs well for band-limited noise. But the approach fails to deliver in case of wide-band noise. To overcome this, multi-stream approaches are proposed in literature with varyi ...
Raman spectra of MgSiO3-perovskite (Mg-pv) were recorded at simultaneous high-pressure and low-temperature conditions. This allowed to estimate characteristic frequencies (nu(i)) and other mode parameters as a function of both pressure and temperature. The ...
Hydrologic fields like rainfall and river basin topography require the quantitative description of their spatial arrangements. These arrangements can be effectively characterized by the spatial structure of the 2-dimensional images obtained through the int ...
Thin films are often grown away from thermodynamic equilibrium and their morphology becomes determined by kinetics. The final structure of the epitaxial film is decided in the very early stage of submonolayer nucleation and island growth. Recent experiment ...
The ab initio mol. dynamics method is extended to treat exchange of electrons between mols. and a reservoir at fixed chem. potential. The method is based on a rigorously grand-canonical d. functional approach using sep. potential energy surfaces for each o ...
To answer the intriguing question whether or not endothermic microbial growth exists, and in particular, to verify Heijnen and van Dijken's prediction (1992), acetotrophic methanogen, Methanosarcina barkeri, has been cultivated in a highly sensitive bench- ...
A review and discussion with 59 refs. Schrodinger stated in his landmark book, What is Life, that life feeds on neg. entropy. In this contribution, the validity of this statement is discussed through a careful thermodn. anal. of microbial growth processes. ...
In this paper the modeling of a signal by a chaotic generator with respect to a specified signal statistic will be considered. To accomplish that, the considered class of n-dimensional piecewise linear Markov generators will first be analyzed analytically, ...
The isoxazoline obtained by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of 2,2-diethoxyacetonitrile N-oxide to furan was converted into enantiomerically pure (-)-(3aS,5S,6S,6aR)- and (+)-(3aR,5R,6R,6aS)-3a,5,6,6a-tetrahydro-5,6-isopropylidenedioxyfuro [2,3-d]isoxazole-3-car ...
The microstructural properties of Ag thick-film contacts on P diffused [100] Si wafers are investigated. By transmission electron microscopy, the contact interface is ound to be composed of mostly 100-500 nm sized Ag crystallites penetrating into the si on ...
