The title compound, [Rh(C(17)H(15)Cl(2)N(2))(CO)(2)], is a rhodium(I) derivative of a β-diketiminato moiety. It is an example of a new type of β-diketiminate derivative that has not yet been characterized via solid-state methods. The complex crystallizes with a distorted square-planar geometry about the Rh(I) atom (m symmetry). A weak inter-molecular C-H⋯O contact is observed.

This paper deals with the presentation of a new microparts feeding system based on inertial force and able to move microcomponents with various shapes and sizes. It is a part of our microfactory project, in which different modular elements work together in order to perform assembly tasks [1], [2], [3], [4]. We present the design and the experimental results of this new type of feeder based on t...

Hopf insulators are characterized by a topological invariant called the Hopf index which classifies maps from three-sphere to two-sphere, instead of a Chern number or a Chern parity. In contrast to a topological insulator, the Hopf insulator is not protected by any kind of symmetry. By dimensional reduction, we argue that there exists a new type of Z(2) index for 2D Hamiltonian with a vanishing...

Abstract The sequence spaces c and cs have recently been introduced in [13] and [9], respectively, as the sets of all sequences whose Λ− transforms are in the spaces c and cs, respectively. The main purpose of this study is to introduce the new type cores, KΛ− core and SΛ− core, of a real valued sequence and also determine necessary and sufficient conditions for a matrix A to satisfy KΛ − core(...

This research is an investigation of Web-based periodicals, an emerging cultural form that presents magazine content in an electronic medium. Specifically, we compare and evaluate the characteristics of incumbent producers that publish Web-based complements to existing paper publications, and newcomer producers that publish Web-based documents exclusively. Drawing on evolutionary perspectives f...

The self-assembly of a new type of triblock terpoly(2-oxazoline) was investigated in water revealing vesicular and aggregated cylindrical micellar structures.

Privacy and trust affect our strategic thinking, yet they have not been precisely modeled in mechanism design. In settings of incomplete information, traditional implementations of a normal-form mechanism —by disregarding the players’ privacy, or assuming trust in a mediator— may not be realistic and fail to reach the mechanism’s objectives. We thus investigate implementations of a new type. We...
