Given an acyclic matching M, we say that a collapsing order 99 is a collapsing order for M if it satisfies M p) = M. The etymology of this terminology is fairly clear the chain Q gives us the order in which it is allowed to perform... 

It turns out that for any poset P and any acyclic matching on P, there exists a universal object a poset whose linear extensions enumerate all allowed collapsing orders. 

Conversely, assume that (p P Q is collapsing order for M. Since p is surjective, is nonempty for every x Q in fact, we have a bijection... 

Thus, we get the desired 1-to-l correspondence between linear extensions of U P, M), and collapsing orders for M. ... 

Beyond the encoding of all allowed collapsing orders as the set of linear extensions of the universal object U (P, M), viewing the posets with small fibers as the central notion of the combinatorial part of discrete Morse theory is also invaluable for the structural explanation of a standard way to construct acyclic matchings as unions of acyclic matchings on fibers of a poset map. 

C. It is secreted along with noradrenaline by the adrenal medulla, from which it may be obtained. It may be synthesized from catechol. It is used as the acid tartrate in the treatment of allergic reactions and circulatory collapse. It is included in some local anaesthetic injections in order to constrict blood vessels locally and slow the disappearance of anaesthetic from the site of injection. Ultimately it induces cellular activation of phosphorylase which promotes catabolism of glycogen to glucose. 

If compaction occurs as a result of production careful monitoring is required. The Ekofisk Field in the Norwegian North Sea made headlines when, as a result of hydrocarbon production, the pores of the fine-grained carbonate reservoir collapsed and the platforms on the seabed started to sink. The situation was later remedied by inserting steel sections into the platform legs. Compaction effects are also an issue in the Groningen gas field in Holland where subsidence in the order of one meter is expected at the surface. 

The last phase transition is to the soHd state, where molecules have both positional and orientational order. If further pressure is appHed on the monolayer, it collapses, owiag to mechanical iastabiHty and a sharp decrease ia the pressure is observed. This coUapse-pressure depends on the temperature, the pH of the subphase, and the speed with which the barrier is moved. 

The function / incorporates the screening effect of the surfactant, and is the surfactant density. The exponent x can be derived from the observation that the total interface area at late times should be proportional to p. In two dimensions, this implies R t) oc 1/ps and hence x = /n. The scaling form (20) was found to describe consistently data from Langevin simulations of systems with conserved order parameter (with n = 1/3) [217], systems which evolve according to hydrodynamic equations (with n = 1/2) [218], and also data from molecular dynamics of a microscopic off-lattice model (with n= 1/2) [155]. The data collapse has not been quite as good in Langevin simulations which include thermal noise [218]. 

Electrostatic effects have long been recognized in commercial HPLC columns for SEC of proteins (15,21,22). The usual remedy is to add 100 mM salt to the mobile phase. This works here too the Lys and Asp peaks collapse into the Gly peak with 100 mM salt (Eig. 8.8). High concentrations of sodium sulfate were added to determine the role played in SEC by hydrophobic interactions (sodium sulfate, a structure-forming salt, strengthens such interactions). Sodium sulfate increased the retention only of the most hydrophobic amino acids to any extent, and then only when the concentration approached 1 M. Clearly, hydrophobic interaction cannot account for the elution order of amino acids on PolyHEA. 

If pseudo-first-order conditions can be established, for example, by setting Cb Ca, then Scheme II collapses to Scheme III,... 

Epinephrine itself does find some use in clinical medicine. The drug is used in order to increase blood pressure in cases of circulatory collapse, and to relax the bronchial muscle in acute asthma and in anaphylactic reactions. These activities follow directly from the agent s physiologic role. The biogenetic precursor of epinephrine, norepinephrine, has activity in its own right as a mediator of sympathetic nerve action. (An apocryphal story has it that the term nor is derived from a label seen on a bottle of a key primary amine in a laboratory in Germany N ohne... 

Figure 2.7, for example, shows how a 2" -order radius r = 1 rule 4> may be converted into a F -order radius r = 2 rule Effective values d 0,1,..., define the states of the single remaining cell of a two-state collapse in time, and extra sites are added on to either side of the original neighborhood. 

After fabrication an initial collapsing of such a bottle should occur as soon as possible (no later than one to two hours after manufacture the sooner the better). Additional pressure is needed for this first-time collapse in order to create permanent fold rings and completely orient the plastic molecules (Chapter 8, PROCESSING AND PROP-... 

Storer model used in this theory enables us to describe classically the spectral collapse of the Q-branch for any strength of collisions. The theory generates the canonical relation between the width of the Raman spectrum and the rate of rotational relaxation measured by NMR or acoustic methods. At medium pressures the impact theory overlaps with the non-model perturbation theory which extends the relation to the region where the binary approximation is invalid. The employment of this relation has become a routine procedure which puts in order numerous experimental data from different methods. At low densities it permits us to estimate, roughly, the strength of collisions. 

In order to describe the shape of the Q-branch after its collapse, it is sufficient to use the stochastic perturbation theory expounded in the... 

Debye s theory, considered in Chapter 2, applies only to dense media, whereas spectroscopic investigations of orientational relaxation are possible for both gas and liquid. These data provide a clear presentation of the transformation of spectra during condensation of the medium (see Fig. 0.1 and Fig. 0.2). In order to describe this phenomenon, at least qualitatively, one should employ impact theory. The first reason for this is that it is able to describe correctly the shape of static spectra, corresponding to free rotation, and their impact broadening at low pressures. The second (and main) reason is that impact theory can reproduce spectral collapse and subsequent pressure narrowing while proceeding to the Debye limit. 

If return occurs during the bromination of cw-stilbenes and rotation around the C-C bond is faster than collapse of the intermediates to dibromides, this process will lead to fra j-stilbene (Scheme 9). We used this test to check the possibility of return in the bromination of unsubstimted, 4-methyl, 4-trifluoromethyl-, and 4,4 -bis(trifluoromethyl)-stilbenes in DCE (ref. 24). All these olefins gave clean third-order rate constants spanning 7 powers of 10. For each cis-trans couple the cis olefin was brominated 3.5 to 5.5 times faster than the trans isomer. Reactions for products analysis were performed at initial molar ratios of Br2 to olefin of 1 to 2, so that products arose only from the cis olefin, the trans isomer being accumulated in the reaction medium.
