Laue photographs for NaCl and LiF

Ab initio Hartree - Fock Born effective charges of LiH , LiF , LiCl , NaF , and NaCl

We use the Berry-phase-based theory of macroscopic polarization of dielectric crystals formulated in terms of Wannier functions, and state-of-the-art Gaussian basis functions, to obtain benchmark ab initio Hartree-Fock values of the Born effective charges of ionic compounds LiH, LiF, LiCl, NaF, and NaCl. We find excellent agreement with the experimental values for all the compounds except LiCl ...

Leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and LIF receptor in human lung. Distribution and regulation of LIF release.

The distribution and regulation of leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF) and its receptor (LIFR) in human lung tissue is unknown. We recently found that LIF was immunolocalized to several cell types in human airways, and that exogenous LIF modulated neural and contractile responses of explanted airways. The present study aimed to determine the cellular distribution and regulation of gene transcripts...

Laue crystallography: Lights! Camera! Action!

Recent advances in the Laue method of X-ray data collection from protein crystals have allowed very short-lived reaction intermediates to be observed successfully.

A case for photographs

The photographic collections held by the University of Melbourne are a rich resource for those interested in the history of photography in Victoria. Notable collections include those of the Grainger Museum, the Ian Potter Museum of Art and the University of Melbourne Archives (UMA), all of which contain works by some of Victoria's best-known photographers. 1 Of particular significance, however,...
