Distribution function, sites

Most calculations of f(Q) for a heterogeneous surface, using an adsorption isotherm assume a patchwise distribution of sites. Explain for what kind of local isotherm functions,/((2,P, T) this assumption is not necessary, and for which it is necessary. Give examples. [Pg.674]

In general, it is diflfieult to quantify stnietural properties of disordered matter via experimental probes as with x-ray or neutron seattering. Sueh probes measure statistieally averaged properties like the pair-correlation function, also ealled the radial distribution function. The pair-eorrelation fiinetion measures the average distribution of atoms from a partieular site. [Pg.131]

The state of the surface is now best considered in terms of distribution of site energies, each of the minima of the kind indicated in Fig. 1.7 being regarded as an adsorption site. The distribution function is defined as the number of sites for which the interaction potential lies between and (rpo + d o)> various forms of this function have been proposed from time to time. One might expect the form ofto fio derivable from measurements of the change in the heat of adsorption with the amount adsorbed. In practice the situation is complicated by the interaction of the adsorbed molecules with each other to an extent depending on their mean distance of separation, and also by the fact that the exact proportion of the different crystal faces exposed is usually unknown. It is rarely possible, therefore, to formulate the distribution function for a given solid except very approximately. [Pg.20]

One important class of integral equation theories is based on the reference interaction site model (RISM) proposed by Chandler [77]. These RISM theories have been used to smdy the confonnation of small peptides in liquid water [78-80]. However, the approach is not appropriate for large molecular solutes such as proteins and nucleic acids. Because RISM is based on a reduction to site-site, solute-solvent radially symmetrical distribution functions, there is a loss of infonnation about the tliree-dimensional spatial organization of the solvent density around a macromolecular solute of irregular shape. To circumvent this limitation, extensions of RISM-like theories for tliree-dimensional space (3d-RISM) have been proposed [81,82],... [Pg.144]

We recently proposed a new method referred to as RISM-SCF/MCSCF based on the ab initio electronic structure theory and the integral equation theory of molecular liquids (RISM). Ten-no et al. [12,13] proposed the original RISM-SCF method in 1993. The basic idea of the method is to replace the reaction field in the continuum models with a microscopic expression in terms of the site-site radial distribution functions between solute and solvent, which can be calculated from the RISM theory. Exploiting the microscopic reaction field, the Fock operator of a molecule in solution can be expressed by... [Pg.420]

The most important property of the self-organized critical state is the presence of locally connected domains of all sizes. Since a given perturbation of the state 77 can lead to anything from a trivial one-site shift to a lattice-wide avalanche, there are no characteristic length scales in the system. Bak, et al. [bak87] have, in fact, found that the distribution function D s) of domains of size s obeys the power law... [Pg.441]

An analysis of the rate of release of adsorbed atoms from sites with a continuous energy spectrum for the case of an arbitrary distribution function of initial site populations was given by Carter (32). The rate equation for the t th desorption process with x = 1 and negligible readsorption is... [Pg.385]

The program then requests specification as to type of polymer (line 320). If the "polymer" component is a collection of oligomers, the number of unique species is sought (line 360). The values for the mole (or weight) fraction, functionality and molecular weight of each species is then entered (lines 380-650). The number, site, and mass expectation values of the functionality and molecular weight (lines 650-810) are computed. The necessary site and mass distribution functions are also computed (lines 820-850). [Pg.206]

These parameters are used calculate the site and mass distribution functions assuming a Schulz-Zimm molecular weight distribution. The Schulz-Zimm parameters are calculated in lines 930-950. The weight fraction of diluent (as a fraction of the amount of polymer) is then sought. If there is no diluent enter 0. If there is a diluent, the functionality and molecular weight of the diluent is requested (line 1040). The necessary expectation values are computed (lines 1060-1150). [Pg.206]

The results depicted in the figure are averages for 10 snapshots at 0.75 g/cm3. Similar positions and amplitudes for the first maximum and first minimum were obtained in MD simulation for a C44H90 melt at 400 K and 0.76 g/cm3 [165], The kink near 4 A does not appear in this MD simulation, but a similar kink does appear in the site-site intermolecular radial distribution function for PE reported by Honnell et al. [166],... [Pg.107]

In structure matching methods, potentials between the CG sites are determined by fitting structural properties, typically radial distribution functions (RDF), obtained from MD employing the CG potential (CG-MD), to those of the original atomistic system. This is often achieved by either of two closely related methods, Inverse Monte Carlo [12-15] and Boltzmann Inversion [5, 16-22], Both of these methods refine the CG potentials iteratively such that the RDF obtained from the CG-MD approaches the corresponding RDF from an atomistic MD simulation. [Pg.198]

The required specialized distribution functions are quite analogous to those which are currently of interest in the theory of fluids with short-range intermolecular forces (see Squire and Salsburg81 and references therein). We require the probability that a set n of defects shall be in a configuration n with the restriction that none of the remaining (N — n) defects are on a particular set of sites b out of the total B sites of the crystal. This probability may be written as... [Pg.34]

B -b). The distribution function is defined in Section IV-4 and b now denotes the sites which are nearest neighbours to the two vacancies. From Eq. (94) it is seen that... [Pg.39]

We define an "i-th nearest neighbour complex to be a pair of oppositely charged defects on lattice sites which are i-th nearest neighbours, such that neither of the defects has another defect of opposite charge at the i-th nearest neighbour distance, Rit or closer. This corresponds to what is called the unlike partners only definition. A different definition is that the defects be Rt apart and that neither of them has another defect of either charge at a distance less than or equal to R. This is the like and unlike partners definition. For ionic defects the difference is small at the lowest concentrations the definition to be used depends to some extent on the problem at hand. We shall consider only the first definition. It is required to find the concentration of such complexes in terms of the defect distribution functions. It should be clear that what is required is merely a particular case of the specialized distribution functions of Section IV-D and that the answer involves pair, triplet, and higher correlation functions. In fact this is not the procedure usually employed, as we shall now see. [Pg.66]

To test whether one can differentiate between a two-site discrete model and a dual distribution function, we calculated intensity Stern-Volmer plots for a two-component model as a function of R. These are also shown in Figure 4.13. What is remarkable is that even for the quite wide R = 0.25, there is no experimentally detectable difference between two discrete sites and two continuously variable distribution of sites. Only when one gets to R = 0.5 does the data deviate noticeably. However, even though the shape has changed, it is still well fit by a dual discrete site model with different parameters. [Pg.99]

An advantage of the inability to detect single Gaussian distributions by intensity data is that intensity quenching data (even complex distribution functions of two sites) can be reliably modeled using a discrete two-site model. This has obvious practical implications in sensor design and calibration. [Pg.104]
