The Lewis fugacity rule is used for calculating the fugacity coefficients of the true species, and (2) the second virial co-... 

Some electric properties of molecules are described in section Al.5.2.2 because the coefficients of the powers of Mr turn out to be related to them. The electrostatic, mduction and dispersion energies are considered m turn in section Al.5.2.3, section Al.5.2.4 and section Al.5.2.5, respectively. 

We now define the tliree-dimensional vectors, Kand fl, consisting of the coefficients of the Pauli matrices in the expansion of p and//, respectively ... 

The coefficients of the 5-fiinction in the sum are called Franck-Condon factors, and reflect the overlap of the initial state with the excited-state i at energy (see figure Al.6.13). Fonnally, equation (A1.6,88i... 

Iiifomiation about the behaviour of the 3D Ising ferromagnet near the critical point was first obtained from high- and low-temperatnre expansions. The expansion parameter in the high-temperatnre series is tanli K, and the corresponding parameter in the low-temperatnre expansion is exp(-2A ). A 2D square lattice is self-dual in the sense that the bisectors of the line joining the lattice points also fomi a square lattice and the coefficients of the two expansions, for the 2D square lattice system, are identical to within a factor of two. The singularity occurs when...

If all the resonance states which fomi a microcanonical ensemble have random i, and are thus intrinsically unassignable, a situation arises which is caWtA. statistical state-specific behaviour [95]. Since the wavefunction coefficients of the i / are Gaussian random variables when projected onto (]). basis fiinctions for any zero-order representation [96], the distribution of the state-specific rate constants will be as statistical as possible. If these within the energy interval E E+ AE fomi a conthuious distribution, Levine [97] has argued that the probability of a particular k is given by the Porter-Thomas [98] distribution... 

Optical detectors can routinely measure only intensities (proportional to the square of the electric field), whether of optical pulses, CW beams or quasi-CW beams the latter signifying conditions where the pulse train has an interval between pulses which is much shorter than the response time of the detector. It is clear that experiments must be designed in such a way that pump-induced changes in the sample cause changes in the intensify of the probe pulse or beam. It may happen, for example, that the absorjDtion coefficient of the sample is affected by the pump pulse. In other words, due to the pump pulse the transparency of the sample becomes larger or smaller compared with the unperturbed sample. Let us stress that even when the optical density (OD) of the sample is large, let us say OD 1, and the pump-induced change is relatively weak, say 10 , it is the latter that carries positive infonnation. 

This complex Ginzburg-Landau equation describes the space and time variations of the amplitude A on long distance and time scales detennined by the parameter distance from the Hopf bifurcation point. The parameters a and (5 can be detennined from a knowledge of the parameter set p and the diffusion coefficients of the reaction-diffusion equation. For example, for the FitzHugh-Nagumo equation we have a = (D - P... 

The Turing mechanism requires that the diffusion coefficients of the activator and inlribitor be sufficiently different but the diffusion coefficients of small molecules in solution differ very little. The chemical Turing patterns seen in the CIMA reaction used starch as an indicator for iodine. The starch indicator complexes with iodide which is the activator species in the reaction. As a result, the complexing reaction with the immobilized starch molecules must be accounted for in the mechanism and leads to the possibility of Turing pattern fonnation even if the diffusion coefficients of the activator and inlribitor species are the same 62. 

Another class of instabilities that are driven by differences in the diffusion coefficients of the chemical species detennines the shapes of propagating chemical wave and flame fronts [65, 66]. 

The symmetry argument actually goes beyond the above deterniination of the symmetries of Jahn-Teller active modes, the coefficients of the matrix element expansions in different coordinates are also symmetry determined. Consider, for simplicity, an electronic state of symmetiy in an even-electron molecule with a single threefold axis of symmetry, and choose a representation in which two complex electronic components, e ) = 1/v ( ca) i cb)), and two degenerate complex nuclear coordinate combinations Q = re " each have character T under the C3 operation, where x — The bras e have character x. Since the Hamiltonian operator is totally symmetric, the diagonal matrix elements e H e ) are totally symmetric, while the characters of the off-diagonal elements ezf H e ) are x. Since x = 1, it follows that an expansion of the complex Hamiltonian matrix to quadratic terms in Q. takes the form... 

For the Fourier coefficients of the modulus and the phase we note that, because of the time-inversion invariance of the amplitude, the former is even in f and the latter is odd. Therefore the former is representable as a cosine series and the latter as a sine series. Formally,... 

When expressed in terms of the zeros of %, the sin-cos coefficients of the log modulus and of the phase are, respectively. 

The gradient of the PES (force) can in principle be calculated by finite difference methods. This is, however, extremely inefficient, requiring many evaluations of the wave function. Gradient methods in quantum chemistiy are fortunately now very advanced, and analytic gradients are available for a wide variety of ab initio methods [123-127]. Note that if the wave function depends on a set of parameters X], for example, the expansion coefficients of the basis functions used to build the orbitals in molecular orbital (MO) theory. 

We assume in the following that the ligand is bound in a binding pocket of depth 6 —a = 7 A involving a potential barrier AU = 25 kcal/mol, similar to that of streptavidin (Chilcotti et al., 1995). We also assume that the diffusion coefficient of the ligand is similar to the diffusion coefficient of the heme group in myoglobin (Z) = 1 A /ns) as determined from Mofibauer spectra (Nadler and Schulten, 1984).
