Experiments, design

Second-order effects include experiments designed to clock chemical reactions, pioneered by Zewail and coworkers [25]. The experiments are shown schematically in figure Al.6.10. An initial 100-150 fs pulse moves population from the bound ground state to the dissociative first excited state in ICN. A second pulse, time delayed from the first then moves population from the first excited state to the second excited state, which is also dissociative. By noting the frequency of light absorbed from tlie second pulse, Zewail can estimate the distance between the two excited-state surfaces and thus infer the motion of the initially prepared wavepacket on the first excited state (figure Al.6.10 ). 

The cross-correlation effects between the DD and CSA interactions also influence the transverse relaxation and lead to the phenomenon known as differential line broadening in a doublet [40], cf Figure Bl.13.8. There is a recent experiment, designed for protein studies, that I wish to mention at tire end of this section. It has been proposed by Pervushin etal [4T], is called TROSY (transverse relaxation optimized spectroscopy) and...

There are few problems of praetleal interest that ean be adequately approximated by one-dimensional simulations. As an example of sueh, eertain explosive blast problems are eoneerned with shoek attenuation and residual material stresses in nominally homogeneous media, and these ean be modeled as one-dimensional spherieally symmetrie problems. Simulations of planar impaet experiments, designed to produee uniaxial strain loading eonditions on a material sample, are also appropriately modeled with one-dimensional analysis teehniques. In faet, the prineipal use of one-dimensional eodes for the eomputational analyst is in the simulation of planar Impaet experiments for... 

In one of the early experiments designed to elucidate the genetic code, Marshall Nirenberg of the U.S. National Institutes of Health (Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine, 1968) prepared a synthetic mRNA in which all the bases were uracil. He added this poly(U) to a cell-free system containing all the necessary materials for protein biosynthesis. A polymer of a single amino acid was obtained. What amino acid was polymerized ... 

Experiments designed to clarify the situation were carried out by Wittig and Mayer (40). It was shown that changing the molar ratio of amine (diethylamine, di- -butylamine, or diisobutylamine) to -butyraldehyde from 1 1 to 2 1 did not affect the yield of enamine (53- 64%, based on the aldehyde). Contrariwise, changing the ratio of amine (morpholine, piperidine, or pyrrolidine) to n-butyraldehyde from 1 1 to 2 1 boosted the yields from 52-57 % to 80-85 %. The authors interpret these data as indicating that the cyclic amines form aminals with n-butyraldehyde, while the open-chain do not. Infrared evidence is stated as having shown that the aminal originates not from attack of excess amine on the enamine, which is stable under the conditions of the reaction, but from the N-hemiacetal (17).

Pressurised water nuclear reactors require metals that will have a high degree of corrosion resistance to pure water at around 300°C. Laboratory testing of materials for this application have included potentiostatic polarisation experiments designed to clarify the active-passive behaviour of alloys as well as to establish corrosion rates. Since pressure vessels are used for this work, it is necessary to provide sealed insulated leads through the autoclave head . 

In practice, there will be a limited number of ligands available that are chemically traceable (i.e., radioactive, fluorescent). Therefore, the bulk of radioligand experiments designed to quantify ligand affinity are done in a displacement mode whereby a ligand is used to displace or otherwise affect the binding of a traceable ligand. 

We see that the holes in the dartboard tell us only the probability that a given throw will land a particular distance from the bullseye. It does 10/ tell us the order in which the holes were made in the dartboard. In the case of the electron distribution, the orbital tells us the probability that an experiment designed to locate the electron will find it a particular distance from the nucleus. It does not tell us how the electron moves from point to point—its trajectory. 

One might anticipate that this type of termination in carbonium ion polymerization might be minimized or even completely avoided by complexing the gegen ion with a suitable electron-seeking molecule. Experiments designed with this purpose in mind are presently underway in our laboratories. If the termination could be prevented we would be able to synthesize living carbonium ion polymers. 

Most of the subsequent work on this reagent was concerned with the formation of aryl radicals (see review by Cadogan, 1971). However, 2-terf-butyl-A-nitrosoacet-anilide was found to decompose in benzene to give, instead of 2-tert-butylbiphenyl, as expected for a substitution of benzene by a 2-tert-butylphenyl radical, a mixture of isomeric tert-butylphenyl acetates. A careful reexamination (Cadogan and Hib-bert, 1964) suggested that the ratio of 2- and 3-tert-butylphenyl acetates was consistent with the involvement of 2-tert-butylbenzyne, i.e., the product of an ionic dediazoniation, as an intermediate. This was later confirmed by trapping experiments designed to detect aryne intermediates. 

Obviously, experiments designed to measure cross-sections as a function of energy are needed. At present, tandem experiments are not capable of high precision at low energies because one must assume details of collision mechanics and because it is difficult to estimate collection efficiencies in forward scattering geometry (15). The extension of all known techniques to lower energy (64, 65) and the further development of pulse methods (58) offer the possibility for advances in this area. 

A series of experiments designed to settle the matter of exactly where inversion takes place was performed by Phillips, Kenyon, and co-workers. In 1923, Phillips carried out the following cycle ... 

The effects of heat and/or water stress can be determined experimentally by raising animals at high temperatures with reduced water intake. This study reports on experiments designed to test the heat and water stress hypothesis. 

Reliability This encompasses factors such as the laboratory environment and organization, equipment design and maintenance, personnel training, skills and experience, design and handling of the analytical method, etc. 

A series of elegant experiments, designed and performed in the first three decades of the twentieth century, revealed the essential structure of the atom. In this section, we outline the main features of the most important experiments to give you an idea of how scientists probe matter at the atomic level. 

In a separate set of experiments designed to follow the gas phase reactions of CHj-radicals with NO, CHj- radicals were generated by the thermal decomposition of azomethane, CHjN NCHj, at 980 °C. The CH3- radicals were subsequently allowed to react with themselves and with NO in a Knudsen cell that has been described previously [12]. Analysis of intermediates and products was again done by mass spectrometry, using the VIEMS. Calibration of the mass spectrometer with respect to CH,- radicals was carried out by introducing the products of azomethane decomposition directly into the high vacuum region of the instrument.
