A general strategy to determine enthalpies of formation of protic ionic liquids, based solely on enthalpy of solution measurements, was conceived and tested for 1-methylimidazolium ethanoate, leading to Δ(f)H°(m){[Hmim][O(2)CCH(3)], 1} = -(425.7 ± 1.2) kJ mol(-1). This result in conjunction with the enthalpy of formation of gaseous 1-methylimidazole (mim) proposed in this work, Δ(f)H°(m)(mim, g...

Electromagnetic wave absorbers have been investigated for many years with the aim of achieving high absorbance and tunability of both the absorption wavelength and the operation mode by geometrical control, small and thin absorber volume, and simple fabrication. There is particular interest in metal-insulator-metal-based plasmonic metamaterial absorbers (MIM-PMAs) due to their complete fulfillm...

BACKGROUND Mobile instant messaging (MIM) tools, such as WhatsApp, have transformed global communication practice. In the field of global health, MIM is an increasingly used, but little understood, phenomenon. OBJECTIVES It remains unclear how MIM can be used by rural community health workers (CHWs) and their facilitators, and what are the associated benefits and constraints. To address this ...

Labeled Graph Matching (LGM) has been shown successful in numerous object vision tasks. This method is the basis for arguably the best face recognition system in the world. We present an algorithm for visual pattern recognition that is an extension of LGM (`LGM'). We compare the performance of LGM and LGM algorithms with a state of the art statistical method based on Mutual Information Maximiza...

Mim-width and sim-width are among the most powerful graph width parameters, with more than mim-width, which is in turn clique-width. While several NP-hard problems become tractable for classes whose mim-width bounded quickly computable, no algorithmic applications of boundedness known. In Kang et al. (2017) [32], it asked whether Independent Set 3-Colouring NP-complete on graphs at 1. We observ...

In this Letter, a dynamically tunable metasurface, which is based on antimony trisulfide, introduced. structure, first metal-insulator-metal (MIM) nanocavity optimized in way that, upon phase change, the visible response switches from transmissive colored window into reflective mirror. Later, an indium tin oxide nanoantenna integrated MIM cavity to provide antireflection short-wave infrared (SW...

Aims. Radio synchrotron polarization maps of the Galaxy can be used to infer the properties of interstellar turbulence in the diffuse magneto-ionic medium (MIM). In this paper, we investigate the normalized spatial gradient of linearly polarized synchrotron emission (|∇P|/|P|) as a tracer of turbulence, the relationship of the gradient to the sonic Mach number of the MIM, and changes in morphol...

• Video imaging is applied to determine the solid/liquid phase transition temperature. Impedance also Eutectic composition and temperature of binary ternary system was estimated. The eutectic T e X systems composed three ionic liquids, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([C 2 mim]Cl), 1-methyl-3-propylimidazolium 3 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium 4 were estimated using a video method, in which fo...

The four polarisation method is adopted for measurement of molecular orientation in dielectric nanolayers metal-insulator-metal (MIM) metamaterials composed gold nanodisks on polyimide and films. Hyperspectral mapping at the chemical finger printing spectral range 4–20 ??m was carried out MIM patterns 1–2.5 period (sub-wavelength). Overlay images taken 0,?4,?2,3?4 angles subsequent baseline com...
