Ab initio and MNDO calculations have been carried out to evaluate the gas-phase acidities of closed-shell XHn compounds (X= C, N, 0, F, Si, P, S, Cl) and the affinities of silane for the XHn_1- anions. Fourth-order perturbation theory with extended basis sets reproduces the experimental gas-phase acidities to within 2 kcaljmol. Stable pentacoordinated silicon anions are found for X = H, C, N, 0, and F. In contrast, only marginally stable charge-dipole complexes are found for X = Si, S, and Cl.

On The Glass Transition And Viscosity Of Phosphorus Pentoxide, C. A. Angell, Steve W. Martin
Steve W. Martin
The calorimetric glass transition temperature Tg for pure anhydrous P2Os melted in sealed Si02 ampules at 1000 “C has been obtained directly for the first time with differential scanning calorimetry, and the increase in heat capacity at Tg has been determined. Tg measured in this way is 57 K higher than the value quoted in the literature, which is probably based on an Arrhenius law extrapolation of viscosity data to 9 = lOI3 P. Combining the high-temperature viscosity data with the common observation that, for oxide glasses, 7 = 10l2 P at the DSC Tg, we find that the P,O, …

Auroral E-Region Plasma Waves Andelevated Electron Temperatures, Bela G. Fejer, J. Providakes, D. T. Farley, W. E. Swartz
Bela G. Fejer
We have observed 3-m auroral E region plasma waves with a high-resolution 50-MHz radar interferometer at Ithaca. During postmidnight periods of very strong magnetic activity at Ottawa (L = 3.5), the backscattered power and Doppler spectra vary rapidly with time and range and may have both mean Doppler shifts and half power widths in excess of 200 Hz (600 m/s). In addition, when the radar and magnetometer data imply that the current is approximately parallel to the radar line of sight, sharp spectral peaks corresponding to phase velocities approaching 1 km/s sometimes appear suddenly. These persist for at most several …

Weak Decays Of The H-Dibaryon, Jf Donoghue, E Golowich, Br Holstein
Weak Decays Of The H-Dibaryon, Jf Donoghue, E Golowich, Br Holstein
Barry R Holstein
We calculate decay rates and branching fractions for the postulated S=-2 H dibaryon, both for the expected ΔS=1 channels (nΛ,nΣ0,pΣ-) and for the possible ΔS=2 mode (nn). For ΔS=1 decays we find the S waves are dominated by ΔI=(3/2) transitions due to the Pauli principle, which forces the six-quark final state to be in a SU(3) 27-plet. If observed, this would be the first breakdown of the ΔI=1/2 rule. The lifetime is long, of order 10-8 sec, which should be considered in planning experiments. In the ΔS=2 case, we add a consideration of dispersive effects to our previous calculation of …
The Minimum Size Of The Aids Epidemic In The United States, Ron Brookmeyer, Mitchell Gail
The Minimum Size Of The Aids Epidemic In The United States, Ron Brookmeyer, Mitchell Gail
Ron Brookmeyer
A new method based on the reported incubation period of transfusion-associated AIDS was used to estimate the number of AIDS cases likely to arise in the USA among those infected before 1986. Between 1986 and 1991 102 000 new cases are projected, with a total cumulative incidence of 135 000 AIDS cases. These estimates do not account for new infections after 1985 nor very long incubation periods and are thus the smallest numbers to be expected. Even if new infections can be effectively prevented, the epidemic will be five times larger than the number of cases observed so far.

Scaling All Correlation Energy In Perturbation Theory Calculations Of Bond Energies And Barrier Heights, Mark S. Gordon, Donald G. Truhlar
Scaling All Correlation Energy In Perturbation Theory Calculations Of Bond Energies And Barrier Heights, Mark S. Gordon, Donald G. Truhlar
Mark S. Gordon
We present and test a new method for scaling all correlation energy as estimated by M0ller-Plesset many-body perturbation theory with popular basis sets. Scale factors that may be useful for future applications are estimated from known bond dissociation energies. We also use scale factors to estimate the barrier heights for two hydrogen-transfer reactions, CH3 + H2 = CH4 + H and OH + CH4 = H20 + CH3•

Gravitational Coupling At Finite Temperature, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein, Rw Robinett
Gravitational Coupling At Finite Temperature, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein, Rw Robinett
Barry R Holstein
We discuss a thermodynamic identity which helps explain why ≠ at finite temperature. In addition we complete the discussion of the gravitational force by including the gravitational variation of the temperature. Gradients in the temperature induce extra forces not accounted for by the usual coupling to the energy-momentum tensor.

Rigid Backbone: A New Geometry For Percolation, Anthony Roy Day, R. R. Tremblay, A.-M. S. Tremblay
Rigid Backbone: A New Geometry For Percolation, Anthony Roy Day, R. R. Tremblay, A.-M. S. Tremblay
Anthony Roy Day
It is shown that the diluted two-dimensional central-force problem belongs to a new class of percolation problems. Geometric properties such as the fractal dimension of the backbone, the correlation-length exponent, and the connectivity are completely different from those of previously studied percolation problems. Explicit calculations of the backbone and the construction of an algorithm which identifies the infinite rigid cluster clearly demonstrate the absence of singly connected bonds, the overwhelming importance of loops, and the long-range nature of the rigidity.
Cooling By Immersion In Liquid Nitrogen, Thomas W. Listerman, Thomas A. Boshinski, Lynn F. Knese
Cooling By Immersion In Liquid Nitrogen, Thomas W. Listerman, Thomas A. Boshinski, Lynn F. Knese
Thomas Listerman
When an object is cooled by immersion in a liquid, there is an unexpected increase in the violence of boiling just before the boiling stops. Most people seem fascinated by this phenomenon yet few are acquainted with its explanation in terms of a change in the heat‐transfer mechanism from film boiling to nucleate boiling. We have developed two variations of an intermediate level undergraduate laboratory experiment to measure the heat‐transfer rate after a sample is immersed in liquid nitrogen. The temperature of the sample, as measured by a thermocouple, is recorded as a function of time using either a potentiometer …

Density-Functional Theory For Random Alloys: Total Energy Within The Coherent-Potential Approximation, Duane D. Johnson, D. M. Nicholson, F. J. Pinski, B. L. Gyorffy, G. M. Stocks
Duane D. Johnson
A density-functional-based theory is developed for calculation of the total energy and pressure of random substitutional alloys within the Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker coherent-potential approximation. The theory is used to calculate the concentration variation of the equilibrium lattice spacing of α-phase CucZn1−c alloys. We find, in agreement with experiment, that the variation is almost linear and that it deviates from Vegard's rule.

During the Condor campaign a number of instruments were set up in Peru to support the rocket experiments. In this series of papers we report on the results of the experiments designed to study the equatorial F region. In this overview paper we summarize the main results as well as report upon the macroscopic developments of spread F as evidenced by data from backscatter radars, from scintillation observations, and from digital ionosonde meaurements. In this latter regard, we argue here that at least two factors other than the classical gravitational Rayleigh-Taylor plasma instability process must operate to yield the longest-scale …

Bela G. Fejer
Radar backscatter at 50 MHz, rocket, and VHF/GHz scintillation measurements of spread F irregularities at the magnetic equator in Peru were made during the Project Condor campaign in March 1983. The paper discusses the coordinated set of observations on two evenings, March 1 and March 14, 1983, when the altitude of the F region peak differed by more than 150 km. The full complement of equatorial spread F phenomena, namely, the occurrence of 3-m plume structures and VHF/GHz scintillations, were recorded on both these evenings. It was found that the radar backscatter with extended plumes occurs in association with maximum …
Auger Analysis Of Si–H Bonding And Hydrogen Concentration In Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon, Nancy Burnham, Aj Nelson, Ab Schwartzlander, Se Asher, Ll Kazmerski
Auger Analysis Of Si–H Bonding And Hydrogen Concentration In Hydrogenated Amorphous Silicon, Nancy Burnham, Aj Nelson, Ab Schwartzlander, Se Asher, Ll Kazmerski
Nancy A. Burnham
Auger electron spectroscopy line‐shape analysis of the Si‐L 2 3 V V peak has been performed on hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a‐Si:H). Both a‐Si:H produced by hydrogen implantation of siliconsingle crystals (for analytical standards) and thin films (fabricated for solar cell applications) were examined in these studies. Hydrogen concentrations were confirmed by secondary ion mass spectrometry, and samples having hydrogen content over the range 101 6–102 2 cm− 3 were evaluated. Correlations between the area under the deconvoluted L 2 3 V V transition peak and the known hydrogen content have resulted in a semiquantitative method of determining hydrogen concentration using …

Scanning Auger Microprobe Studies Of Ball Cratered Cds/Cuinse2 Solar Cells, Nancy Burnham, Ll Levenson, Rj Matson, R Noufi, Ll Kazmerski
Nancy A. Burnham
CdS/CuInSe2solar cell films are typically several micrometers thick. Composition profiles of these films are usually carried out on fracture cross sections by scanning Auger microscopy or by recording Auger spectra during ion milling. For fracture cross sections, the depth resolution depends on the electron beam diameter and the roughness of the fracture surface. Ion milling is time consuming, and artifacts are caused by ion beam faceting. Ball cratering requires only a fraction of an hour and provides significant magnification of the film cross section. There is sufficient contrast, both in optical and electron microscopy, to distinguish between CdS and CuInSe2 …
Chiral Symmetry, Nonleptonic Hyperon Decay, And The Feinberg-Kabir-Weinberg Theorem, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein
Chiral Symmetry, Nonleptonic Hyperon Decay, And The Feinberg-Kabir-Weinberg Theorem, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein
Barry R Holstein
We demonstrate that additional (kaon-pole) diagrams must be appended to the traditional commutator-plus-baryon-pole approach to nonleptonic hyperon decay. The modified analysis satisfied the constraints of the Feinberg-Kabir-Weinberg theorem. The new terms are not numerically significant in the case of the usual current-current Hamiltonian, in the continuum limit, but can be important for work using lattice techniques or for other Hamiltonians.
Potential Primary Pyrolysis Processes For Disilane, Mark S. Gordon, Thanh N. Truong, Elizabeth K. Bonderson
Potential Primary Pyrolysis Processes For Disilane, Mark S. Gordon, Thanh N. Truong, Elizabeth K. Bonderson
Mark S. Gordon
Four competing unimolecular decomposition pathways for disilane are considered with use of MP4 energies obtained with an extended basis set and geometries obtained at the MP2/6-31G** computational level. The 1,1- and 1,2-eliminations of H2 and the elimination of silylene to form silane all have similar endothermicities, but the very high activation energy for the I ,2-elimination eliminates this process as a significant contributor at low energies. If disilene is formed in the thermal decomposition of disilane, the more likely source is its higher energy isomer silylsilylene via a relatively low energy I ,2-hydrogen shift.
