XANES contains information of the stereochemical details (coordination geometry and bond angles) and EXAFS gives information about local structures in terms of atomic radial distribution (distances) around the central atom. Some techniques are very deep probes while others are strictly surface oriented e.g., with the EPMA and SIMS, the probe depth is 1 nm with XPS, 2 to 7 nm with EXAFS, 0.5 nm, with XANES, 5 to 50 nm, with AES, 1 to 3 nm, and with ISS, it is only 0.3 nm. 

The energy losses in the optimized and efficient electric grids for hydrogen-based energy are less than those from other sources. For modest distribution distances, about 90% of the generated... 

Currently, SharedARK is a prototype - a system intentionally slightly before its time. The technology needed to support a truly useful version is rapidly falling in price, and I believe there are no fundamental barriers to the full realization of a distributed distance education system based on the SharedARK model. 

The direct visualized cycle time was obtained by an automatic recognition program which defined a peak if the sum of rise and decline was greater than two in the distribution of reaction times for one finger. The time axis has been divided into 10 ms intervals. The recognition program measured the differences between the peaks, summed them up and computed the mean value. This mean difference between the peaks of the distribution is the direct visualized cycle time of this task. Because it is possible that one cycle does not occur in a distribution, distances between peaks similar to two cycle times obtained by method 1 are not used to compute the mean value. This would give a false mean value if two cycle times are considered as one. 

The multidimensional CDF z(r) shows peaks wherever there are domain surface contacts between domains in /o(r) and in its displaced ghost. Such peaks hi (ru, r ) are called [6] distance distributions. Distance is the ghost displacement. It is sometimes useful to replace the index i by a sequence of indexes that indicate the sequence of domains that have been passed along the displacement path until the considered domain surface contact occurs. For instance hcairu, r ) indicates the passing of an amorphous and a crystalline domain. Thus this peak is a long period peak, hca will... 

The wave function T i oo ( = 11 / = 0, w = 0) corresponds to a spherical electronic distribution around the nucleus and is an example of an s orbital. Solutions of other wave functions may be described in terms of p and d orbitals, atomic radii Half the closest distance of approach of atoms in the structure of the elements. This is easily defined for regular structures, e.g. close-packed metals, but is less easy to define in elements with irregular structures, e.g. As. The values may differ between allo-tropes (e.g. C-C 1 -54 A in diamond and 1 -42 A in planes of graphite). Atomic radii are very different from ionic and covalent radii. 

It is suggested though that even more precise sizing of cracks with complex cross-sections and unknown shapes could be achieved using the distribution of the leakage magnetic field along two lines positioned above the surface of the sample and parallel to the direction of the applied field at the same distance from the centre of the crack and from its closer end. 

Another statistical mechanical approach makes use of the radial distribution function g(r), which gives the probability of finding a molecule at a distance r from a given one. This function may be obtained experimentally from x-ray or neutron scattering on a liquid or from computer simulation or statistical mechanical theories for model potential energies [56]. Kirkwood and Buff [38] showed that for a given potential function, U(r)... 

Unlike the solid state, the liquid state cannot be characterized by a static description. In a liquid, bonds break and refomi continuously as a fiinction of time. The quantum states in the liquid are similar to those in amorphous solids in the sense that the system is also disordered. The liquid state can be quantified only by considering some ensemble averaging and using statistical measures. For example, consider an elemental liquid. Just as for amorphous solids, one can ask what is the distribution of atoms at a given distance from a reference atom on average, i.e. the radial distribution function or the pair correlation function can also be defined for a liquid. In scattering experiments on liquids, a structure factor is measured. The radial distribution fiinction, g r), is related to the stnicture factor, S q), by...

Notice that each collision is counted twice, once for the particle with velocity v and once for the particle with velocity v We also note that we have assumed that the distribution fiinctions/do not vary over distances which are the lengths of the collision cylinders, as the interval 6t approaches some small value, but still large compared with the duration of a binary collision. 

Assuming that additive pair potentials are sufficient to describe the inter-particle interactions in solution, the local equilibrium solvent shell structure can be described using the pair correlation fiinction g r, r2). If the potential only depends on inter-particle distance, reduces to the radial distribution fiinction g(r) = g... 

At low solvent density, where isolated binary collisions prevail, the radial distribution fiinction g(r) is simply related to the pair potential u(r) via g ir) = exp[-n(r)//r7]. Correspondingly, at higher density one defines a fiinction w r) = -kT a[g r). It can be shown that the gradient of this fiinction is equivalent to the mean force between two particles obtamed by holding them at fixed distance r and averaging over the remaining N -2 particles of the system. Hence w r) is called the potential of mean force. Choosing the low-density system as a reference state one has the relation...
