A survey of ligand eld theory is given and the possibility of ob serving the Jahn Teller e ect in molecules by means of gas phase elec tron di raction is discussed The theory of the dynamic Jahn Teller e ect is outlined and theoretical and experimental results for VCl are reviewed In H A Jahn and E Teller predicted that a nonlinear molecule which is in a degenerate state will seek to change its...

An embedded OSS (Open Source Software) known as one of OSS has been gaining a lot of attention in the embedded system area, i.e., Android, BusyBox, TRON, etc. However, the poor handling of quality problem and customer support prohibit the progress of embedded OSS. Therefore, many companies have been hesitant to innovate the embedded OSS because of OSS includes several software versions. Also, i...

We repo~ th~ results of studies of the cross sections and photoelectron asymmetry parameters for phot.otomzatlOn ~f the 7 0' level of N 20 using Hartree-Fock photoelectron continuum orbitals. These s~udt~ were ~O~lVa~ed by recent measurements which showed significant non-Franck-Condon vtbrattonal dtstnbutwns at low ph?toel~tron energies where previously only autoionizing resonances, but no shap...

In this paper, we report data and experiments related to the research article entitled "An adaptive truncation criterion, for linesearch-based truncated Newton methods in large scale nonconvex optimization" by Caliciotti et al. [1]. In particular, in Caliciotti et al. [1], large scale unconstrained optimization problems are considered by applying linesearch-based truncated Newton methods. In th...

We study the Coulomb drag rate for electrons in a double-quantumwell st~ct~e taking into account the el~tron-optimal phon~n interactions. The full wave vector and frequency dependent random-phase approximation (RPA) at finite temperature is employed to describe the effective interlayer Coulomb interaction. The electron-electron and electron-optical phonon couplings are treated on an equal footi...

Acute changes in the surface morphology of hamster tracheobronchial epithelium were examined by scanning electron microscopy following intratracheal administration of ferric oxide or benzo(a)pyrene absorbed to ferric oxide. Multiple instillation of ferric oxide brought about a loss of ciliated cells and broad areas of abnormal, enlarged nonciliated cells with roughened or wrinkled surfaces. The...

The field of computer assisted learning has reached a new high in popularity due to the Web. A variety of different products trying to meet the needs and supporting of Web Based Training (WBT) exists. In contrast to the traditional classroom equipped with the blackboard and a piece of chalk (and perhaps a projector for transparencies) there is the electronic world with its challenges like virtu...

Anonymous credential systems are a key ingredient for a secure and privacy protecting electronic world. In their full-fledged form, they can realize a broad range of requirements of authentication systems. However, these many features result in a complex system that can be difficult to use. In this paper, we aim to make credential systems easier to employ by providing an architecture and high-l...

A safe control of genetic evolution consists in preventing past errors of evolution from being repeated. This could be done by keeping track of the history of evolution, but maintaining and exploiting the complete history is intractable. This paper investigates the use of machine learning (ML), in order to extract manageable information from this history. More precisely , induction from example...
