Energetics of intermolecular HONO formation in condensed-phase octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine (HMX)
We present preliminary work on the formation of HONO in condensed-phase HMX for the three pure polymorphic phases. Our results show that the energetics of the intermolecular hydrogen transfer (to form HONO on an adjacent molecule) is more favorable in d-HMX than in a-HMX and b-HMX. The energetics of this intermolecular hydrogen transfer process follow the same trends of HMX sensitivity, where d...

Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) signaling plays many roles in skull morphogenesis. We have previously reported that enhanced BMP signaling through the BMP type IA receptor (BMPR1A) in cranial neural crest cells causes craniosynostosis during postnatal development. Additionally, we observed that 55% of Bmpr1a mutant mice show neonatal lethality characterized by a distended gastrointestinal trac...
متن کاملStudies on Sheet Explosive Formulation Based on Octahydro-1,3,5,7-Tetranitro- 1,3,5,7-Tetrazocine and Hydroxyl Terminated Polybutadiene
The effect of replacing hexahydro-1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazine (RDX) by octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7tetrazocine (HMX) in HTPB-binder on the performance, sensitivity, thermal, and mechanical properties of the sheet explosive formulation has been studied. The maximum loading of HMX was achieved up to 78 per cent in HTPB-binder system. The velocity of detonation (VOD) of HMX-based sheet e...
متن کاملMechanism for Unimolecular Decomposition of HMX (1,3,5,7-Tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine), an ab Initio Study
To improve the mechanistic understanding of the possible decomposition in the gas phase of the energetic material HMX (octahydro-1,3,5,7-tetranitro-1,3,5,7-tetrazocine), we used ab initio calculations to determine the various unimolecular decomposition channels. We find three distinct mechanisms: (i) homolytic cleavage of N-N bond to form NO2 (M ) 46) and HMR (M ) 250) which subsequently decomp...

Light is an important limiting factor for the visual foraging process in fishes, and the light regime may potentially affect the competition between visual and tactile predators. We investigated two equal-sized fjords of quite different pelagic food web structure. Earlier studies have revealed that the jellyfish Periphylla periphylla dominates Lurefjorden, while fish predators dominate in the o...
