Hydrothermally synthesized dipotassium gallium {hydrogen bis[hydrogenphosphate(V)]} difluoride, K(2)Ga[H(HPO(4))(2)]F(2), is isotypic with K(2)Fe[H(HPO(4))(2)]F(2). The main features of the structure are ([Ga{H(HPO(4))(2)}F(2)](2-))(n) columns consisting of centrosymmetric Ga(F(2)O(4)) octahedra [average Ga-O = 1.966 (3) Angstrom and Ga-F = 1.9076 (6) Angstrom] stacked above two HPO(4) tetrahed...

Pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid has been studied by single-crystal neutron diffraction at 15 and 296 K. Pyridine-3,5-dicarboxylic acid, in which the carboxylic acid protons have been replaced by deuterons, has also been studied at 15, 150 and 296 K. The protonated structure contains a short N...H...O hydrogen bond [N...O 2.523 (2) Angstrom at 15 K]. Temperature-dependent proton migration occurs ...

Solar radiation plays a pivotal role in the energy balance at Earth's surface, evaporation, snow melting, water requirements of plants, and hydrological control catchments. In this work, performance ERA-Interim (a reanalysis dataset) was examined to estimate solar Ahvaz, BandarAbbas, Kermanshah weather stations representing even spatial distribution over Iran using eight empirical models an art...

Emission features from ionized carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide were measured in the 1900- to 4300-angstrom spectral region. The Lyman alpha 1216-angstrom line of atomic hydrogen and the 1304-, 1356-, and 2972-angstrom lines of atomic oxygen were observed.

a new polymorph crystalline silica composition having uniform pore dimensions were synthesized by calcining a crystalline hydrated alkyl-ammonium silicate. the pore dimensions approximately were 6 angstrom for silicalite-1 and 11 angstrom for silicalite-2 units. the silicalite-1 was prepared hydrothermally at a ph of about 10 from a reaction mixture consist of water, amorphous silica and a quat...

In this paper, we explore the performance of a novel NASA-GISS algorithm which is used to calibrate and extract aerosol optical depth (AOD) from a portable Multi-filter Shadowband radiometer (MFRSR) instrument in comparison to the standard Langley regression algorithm. We show that the NASA-GISS algorithm results has stable calibration coefficients in comparison to those obtained using the conv...

Orthorhombic crystals of bovine F(1)-ATPase have been subjected to controlled dehydration. A decrease in the relative humidity surrounding the crystals to 90% reproducibly reduced their unit-cell volume by 22% (950,000 Angstrom(3)) and improved the diffraction limit and mosaic spread of the crystals significantly. These dehydrated crystals diffracted X-rays to 1.8 Angstrom resolution at a synch...
