Dutch Crossing: Journal of Low Countries Studies

Language planning in the Low Countries ( 1996 - 2005 ) : The Dutch Language Union

Dutch is a West-Germanic language spoken by approximately 22 million people worldwide. It is the official language of Surinam, the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba – all of these are former colonies of The Netherlands – but most speakers (app. 21 million) live in the Netherlands or Belgium.2 In 1980, these two countries established the Nederlandse Taalunie (‘Dutch Language Union’, henceforth DLU)...

Studies of intersystem crossing dynamics in acetylene.

We report a new ab initio study of the acetylene T3 potential energy surface, which clarifies the nature of its energy minimum, and present computed equilibrium geometries and diabatic frequencies. This information enables the computation of harmonic vibrational overlap integrals of T3 vibrational levels with the S1 3nu3 state. The results of this calculation support the interpretation of two l...

Studies on the Mechanism of Crossing over.

N E of the major objections to the torsion theory of crossing over as pro-0 posed by DARLINGTON (1935) is that it is difficult to comprehend why a break in one chromatid should cause a break to occur in exactly the same position in a chromatid from the homologous chromosome. This objection holds for any mechanism which postulates that crossing over occurs after the duplication of the chromosome...
