We map substructure in three strong lensing systems having particularly good image data: the galaxy lens MG J0414+053 and the clusters SDSS J1004+411 and ACO 1689. Our method is to first reconstruct the lens as a pixelated mass map and then substract off the symmetric part (in the galaxy case) or a projected NFW (for the cluster lenses). In all three systems we find extended irregular structure...

The catalytic behavior of Brønsted acid sites in three acidic zeolite materials (one MWW and two MFI zeolites) containing dual meso-/microporosity was studied using ethanol dehydration and monomolecular conversion of propane and isobutane as probe reactions. The meso-/microporous MWW zeolite, MCM-36 or pillared MWW, consists of a zeolitic layer structure, with independent microporosity and meso...

Generic synthesis, identification of structural identity, unique prototropy and spectroscopic properties of meso-alkylidenyl-thia(m-benzi)porphyrinoid containing one exocyclic double bond at the meso-position were presented.

Networks are among the most prevalent formal representations in scientific studies, employed to depict interactions between objects such as molecules, neuronal clusters, or social groups. Studies performed at meso-scale that involve grouping of objects based on their distinctive interaction patterns form one of the main lines of investigation in network science. In a social network, for instanc...

prediction of mechanical properties of carbon nanotube-based composite is one of the important issues which should be addressed reasonably. a proper modeling approach is a multi-scale technique starting from nano scale and lasting to macro scale passing in-between scales of micro and meso. the main goal of this research is to develop a multi-scale modeling approach to extract mechanical propert...

Treatment of meso-mesityl 5,15-diazaporphyrin with alkyllithiums in toluene at low temperature provided monoalkylated diazachlorins through highly regioselective nucleophilic addition at the β-position near the meso-nitrogen atom.

Dipyrromethanes with meso-pyridyl groups form various hydrogen bonding structures such as dimeric and hexagonal structures and infinite chains. The formation of the self-assembled structures and chains depends on the existence of meso-pyridyl nitrogen in the solid state.

Pd(II) complexes in which 2-pyridyldiphenylphosphine (Ph(2)Ppy) chelates the Pd(II) centre have been prepared and characterized by multinuclear NMR spectroscopy and by X-ray crystallographic analysis. trans-[Pd(kappa(1)-Ph(2)Ppy)(2)Cl(2)] is transformed into [Pd(kappa(2)-Ph(2)Ppy)(kappa(1)-Ph(2)Ppy)Cl]Cl by the addition of a few drops of methanol to dichloromethane solutions, and into [Pd(kappa...

Acid-catalysed, '3+3' condensation of m-bispyrryl benzene derivatives with acetone afforded new non-aromatic macrocycles that can be converted to meso-alkylidenyl dibenzohexaphyrins carrying four exocyclic double bonds at meso-positions by DDQ oxidation.

Some meso-tetra aryl porphyrinato manganese (III) acetate or chloride complexes including meso-tetraphenyl porphyrinato manganese (III) chloride (TPPMnCl), meso-tetrakis(2,3-dimethoxyphenyl)porphyrinato manganese(III) acetate, (T(2,3-OMeP)PMnOAc) and meso-tetrakis(pentaflourophenyl)porphyrinato manganese (III) acetate (TPFPPMnOAc) were synthesized. These porphyrins were used as catalyst in the ...
