We calculate the nucleonic and pionic dispersion relations at finite temperature (T ) and non-vanishing chemical potentials (μf ) in the context of an effective chiral theory that describes the strong and electromagnetic interactions for nucleons and pions. The dispersion relations are calculated in the broken chiral symmetry phase, where the nucleons are massive and pions are taken as massless...

[1] During the summer 1998, a strong pollution event was documented over Paris as part of the Etude et Simulation de la Qualité de l’air en Ile-de-France (ESQUIF) project (second intensive observation period (IOP2)). From 7 to 9 August 1998 the pollution event changes from a well-marked ozone plume issued from Paris to a more general pollution over the whole Ile-de-France region. Using a three-...

A novel methodology for solving the chemical plume tracing problem that utilizes data from a network of stationary sensors has been developed in this study. During a toxic chemical release and dispersion incident, the imperative need of first responders is to determine the physical location of the source of chemical release in the shortest possible time. However, the chemical plume that develop...

We examine the impact of discrete numbers of stars in stellar populations on the results of Chemical Evolution Models. We explore the resulting dispersion in the true yields and their possible relation with the dispersion in observational data based on a Simple Closed-Box model. In this framework we find that the dispersion is larger for the less evolved or low abundance regions. Thus, the age-...

The role of catalysis in chemical industry as basis of modern civilization is described and mechanism of catalytic reactions is discussed. Influence of electronic structure of transition metal atoms, structure sensitivity of catalytic reactions, tailoring of acid-base and redox properties of zeolites, quantum chemical description of elementary reaction steps, dynamics of catalysts surfaces, osc...

An energy decomposition analysis (EDA) for single chemical bonds is presented within the framework of Kohn-Sham density functional theory based on spin projection equations that are exact within wave function theory. Chemical bond energies can then be understood in terms of stabilization caused by spin-coupling augmented by dispersion, polarization, and charge transfer in competition with desta...
