chlorite flakes, as a product of alteration of biotite, the dominant ferromagnesian mineral in the paleozoic granitic rocks of the canadian appalachians, have been analyzed by electron microprobe for major elements and by 57fe m?ssbauer spectroscopy for the coordination and oxidation state of fe. comparison of m?ssbauer fe3+/fe ratios obtained from chlorite and its host biotite indicates that c...

This paper applies duration calculus to the speciication and ver-iication of a complex robotics task: Fingers grasping an object. We present a model of the relevant features of the mechanical design and provide a speciication for sensors, actuators and a controller. Requirements are then speciied in an assumption commitment style, and it is checked through calculation that the design satisses t...

The notion of \speciication" plays a key role in the developing science of computing. It is typically considered to be the keystone in the software development process. However, there is no single, generally agreed meaning of \speciication" that bears close scrutiny. Instead there is a variety of diierent, although partially interlocking and overlapping interpretations of the term. We catalogue...

We consider a general GMM framework where weaker patterns of identi cation may arise: typically, the data generating process is allowed to depend on the sample size. We are interested in providing inference about the identi cation of the structural parameter. First, we propose a consistent Hausman-type test to test whether additional moment conditions enhance its identi cation. Failing to rejec...

A study of the [C6 H6 Ir(PH3 )3 ]+ iridatropylium cation structure based on frontier orbital analysis, thermodynamic analysis, and natural bond orbital (NBO) theory is the main aim of the present research. Also, HOMO, LUMO energies, hardness, electrophilicity and chemical potential were calculated. Structural analysis indicated the optimized geometry shows a good agreement with the experimental...

in this study the binding abilities of 1,3-calix[4]biscrown-6 (l) toward ba2+ and ca2+ have beenestablished in methanol by spectrophotometric measurements at 25±0.1 °c and 0.01 m ionicstrength, and with using specfit computer program; stability constants for 2 : 1, metal : ligandcomplexes has been estimated

scorpion venoms contain of variety of peptides toxic to mammals ، insects and crustaceans. toxic peptides are the main factors in scorpion venom causing toxicity, (their amount being 1-3%of total venom.). most of the scorpion toxins have been isolated from the venoms of scorpions in the family buthidae. the scorpion buthotus schach belonging to the buthidae family is widely found in the western...
