Photo-induced phase transitions are characterized by the transformation from phase A to phase B through the absorption of photons. We have investigated the mechanism of the photo-induced phase transitions of four different ternary systems CiE4/alkane (i) with n = 8, 10, 12, 14; cyclohexane/H2O. We were interested in understanding the effect of chain length increase on the dynamics of transforma...

Two organometallic compounds containing zinc and manganese in different ratios are used as single-source precursors for the preparation of various new, bimetallic oxide materials with nanoscaled dimensions. It is shown that the materials synthesis can be performed in the solid-state, the liquid-phase, and even in the gas-phase. The molecular composition of the precursors determines the composit...

We derive an effective topological field theory model of the four dimensional quantum Hall liquid state recently constructed by Zhang and Hu. Using a generalization of the flux attachment transformation, the effective field theory can be formulated as a U (1) Chern–Simons theory over the total configuration space C P3, or as a SU (2) Chern–Simons theory over S4. The new quantum Hall liquid supp...

In this paper, we prove correctness of parallelizing a string matcher using Haskell as a theorem prover. We use refinement types to specify correctness properties, Haskell terms to express proofs and Liquid Haskell to check correctness of proofs. First, we specify and prove that a class of monoid morphisms can be parallelized via parallel monoid concatenation. Then, we encode string matching as...

We present the results of neutron and X-ray scattering experiments on liquid tellurium. No dependence on temperature of the radius and the coordination number of the first neighbour shell has been found in the temperature range between 460 °C and 550 °C. We investigate the influence of the truncation of the Fourier transformation on the determined coordination number of nearest neighbours and o...

Although the nuclear genome sequence of Cyanidioschyzon merolae 10D, a unicellular red alga, was recently determined, DNA transformation technology that is important as a model plant system has never been available thus far. In this study, improved culture conditions resulted in a faster growth rate of C. merolae in liquid medium (doubling time = 9.2 h), and colony formation on gellan gum plate...

A rapid method of determining the rate of transformation of group H streptococci to streptomycin resistance has been developed. The new technique, which involves analysis of the growth response of transformed streptococci in liquid medium containing streptomycin, is independent of chain length fluctuations and is demonstrably more accurate than the standard plating method. The relatively short ...
