Fourier transform absorption spectra of H2 O-enriched and H2 O-enriched water vapor in the 3m + d and 4m polyad region have been analyzed. With the aid of theoretically calculated linelists, we have assigned 1014 lines attributed to H2 O and 836 lines of 855 attributed to H2 O. Seven new band origins are found for H2 O and one for H2 O. 2005 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

Soil microbial communities are continuously exposed to H2 diffusing into the soil from the atmosphere. N2-fixing nodules represent a peculiar microniche in soil where H2 can reach concentrations up to 20,000 fold higher than in the global atmosphere (0.530 ppmv). In this study, we investigated the impact of H2 exposure on soil bacterial community structure using dynamic microcosm chambers simul...

Molecular hydrogen (H2) is clinically administered; however, in some hospitals, H2 is given to patients without consideration of its safe use. In the present study, we prepared convenient and safe devices for the drinking of super-saturated H2 water, for intravenous drip infusion of H2-rich saline, and for the inhalation of H2 gas. In order to provide useful information for researchers using th...

Background Molecular hydrogen (H2) is an attractive future energy carrier to replace fossil fuels. Biologically and sustainably produced H2 could contribute significantly to the future energy mix. However, biological H2 production methods are faced with multiple barriers including substrate cost, low production rates, and low yields. The C1 compound formate is a promising substrate for biologic...

Oxidative stress and neuroinflammation cause many neurological disorders. Recently, it has been reported that molecular hydrogen (H2) functions as an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory agent. The routes of H2 administration in animal model and human clinical studies are roughly classified into three types, inhalation of H2 gas, drinking H2-dissolved water, and injection of H2-dissolved saline. T...

Heritability and interactions of yield and growth traits were assessed in Hevea brasiliensis using full-sib progenies and clonal populations. Using parent-offspring regression, annual mean rubber yield (ARY) and summer yield (SY) showed moderate to high heritability (ARY, h2 =34–56%; SY, h2 =36–52%). Among the yield components, girth exhibited low to moderate heritability (h2 =17–36%) while bra...

H2S retards H2 transport across Pd membranes used for H2 separation by forming a Pd4S scale that has both low H2 dissociation activity and low H-atom permeability. As hydrogen purification membranes, alloys such as Pd70Cu30 and Pd47Cu53 are attractive alternatives to pure Pd due to their resistance to formation of bulk sulfides. Nonetheless, exposure to H2S can decrease the permeability of Pd70...

Fundamentals of Wireless Communications Homework 1 Solutions Handout date: April 1, 2014 Problem 1 Identification of LTV Systems 1. Suppose x stably identifiesQ. ForH1, H2 ∈ QwithH1x = H2xwe have 0 = H1x−H2x = (H1 −H2)x sinceH1, H2 are linear operators. Moreover,H1 −H2 ∈ Q. Since x stably identifiesQ, α‖H1 −H2‖H ≤ ‖(H1 −H2)x‖ = 0 with α > 0, which implies thatH1 −H2 = 0, i.e.,H1 = H2. 2. We sta...

The 1H nuclear spin-lattice relaxation time (T1) of H2 and H2@C60 in organic solvents varies with solvent, and it varies proportionally for H2 and for H2@C60. Since intermolecular magnetic interactions are ruled out, the solvent must influence the modulating processes of the relaxation mechanisms of H2 both in the solvent cage and inside C60. The temperature dependence of T1 also is very simila...
