Soliton circuits are among the most promising alternatives for molecular electronic devices based on the design of molecular level conventional digital circuits. In order to capture the logical and computational aspects of these circuits, a mathematical model called soliton automaton was introduced by Dassow and Jürgensen in 1990. The underlying object of a soliton automaton is a so called soli...

abstract: two new transition metal complexes, containing the acidic ligand 5-chlorosalicylic acid (h2l5), and 1,10-phenanthroline（phen） and 1,3-di(4-pyridyl)propane (bpp) as secondary ligands are reported. they are formulated as {[pb(hl5)2(phen)(h2o)]·h2o}n(1), [zn2(hl5)4(bpp)2]n(2). all the complexes are characterized by single-crystal x-ray diffractions. compoud 1 crystallizes in the triclini...

Transition states are the balance point of catalysis. Bonds are partially made and/or broken at the transition state, and the energy of the extended system provides near-equal probability that the system forms products or reverts to reactants. Enzymatic catalytic sites provide dynamic electronic environments that increase the probability that the transition state will be formed. Alignment of re...

We consider a gas of attractively interacting cold fermionic atoms which are manipulated by laser light. The laser induces a transition from an internal state with large negative scattering length to one with almost no interactions. The process can be viewed as a tunneling of atomic population between the superconducting and the normal states of the gas. It can be used to detect the BCS ground ...

The effects of electromagnetic fields (EMFs) radiation at the frequency of 940 MHz on the structure and function of human adult and fetal hemoglobin (HbA and HbF) were studied. After extraction and purification of HbA and HbF, the oxygen absorption values for exposed and unexposed HbA and HbF to EMF were compared. The slope of oxygen absorption curve for exposed HbA was increased while that for...

We report the results of observations with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer of the black-hole candidate GX 339-4 during the state transition of 1998. We find that both the X-ray spectrum and the characteristic of the time variability after the transition are typical of a high/soft state. We cannot exclude that the source went through an Intermediate State before entering the high state. We discu...
