the kinetics of mn(vii) oxidation of lysine in moderately sulfuric acid solutions was studiedspectrophotometrically in the presence and absence of mn(ii) as catalyst. the reaction was arrangedto be under pseudo first-order condition with respect to mn(vii). the results showed that the pseudofirst-order rate constant increases with increasing [h2so4], [(mn)ii], and [lysine]. the dependence ofthe...

 Four terminal-pair coaxial capacitance standards with nominal values of 1 pF and 10 pF have been realized and, using a uniform transmission line model, their frequency dependences have been evaluated. 1:1 comparisons against reference capacitors with known frequency dependence (Agilent 16381A and Agilent 16382A) have shown that the values of the 1 pF and the 10 pF standard change by 0,04 % an...

In this paper, drain-source current, transconductance and cutoff frequency in AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors have been investigated. In order to obtain parameters of exact AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors such as electron density, the wave function, band gap, polarization charge, effective mass and dielectric constant, the hydrostatic pressure and temperature effects a...

The frequency behavior of the tunnel injection quantum dot vertical cavitysurface emitting laser (TIQD-VCSEL) is investigated by using an analyticalnumericalmethod on the modulation transfer function. The function is based on therate equations and is decomposed into components related to different energy levelsinside the quantum dot and injection well. In this way, the effect of the tunnelingpr...

The entropy generation analysis of non-Newtonian fluid in rotational flow between two concentric cylinders is examined when the outer cylinder is fixed and the inner cylinder is revolved with a constant angular speed. The viscosity of non-Newtonian fluid is considered at the same time interdependent on temperature and shear rate. The Nahme law and Carreau equation are used to modeling dependenc...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE A strong correlation exists between the intensity of atherosclerotic alterations in different arteries. Marked differences exist, however, in the age and sex distribution and risk factors for coronary heart disease (CHD) and cerebrovascular disease (CVD). We therefore performed genetic and immunologic studies in patients with CVD. METHODS We studied 292 patients with CV...

Vibrational lifetimes of hydrogen and deuterium related bending modes in semiconductors are measured by transient bleaching spectroscopy and high-resolution infrared absorption spectroscopy. We find that the vibrational lifetimes follow a universal frequency-gap law; i.e., the decay time increases exponentially with increasing decay order, with values ranging from 1 ps for a one-phonon process ...

For decades, H0 and q0 were the quest of cosmology, as they promised to characterize our “world model” without reference to a specific cosmological framework. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we show that q0 cannot be directly measured using distance indicators with both accuracy (without offset away from its true value) and precision (small error bar). While H0 can be measured with accuracy and ...
