Fields of natural sciences

Two very important fields of natural science—chemistry and the science of electricity— matured and grew vigorously during the first half of the nineteenth century. Electrochemistry developed simultaneously. From the very beginning, electrochemistry was not merely a peripheral field but evolved with an important degree of independence, and it also left very significant marks on the development of chemistry and of the theory of electricity. 

As his search lengthened, Muller was increasingly ridiculed as an odd person, a lone wolf, and, of course, as a man who made his own bread. With dogged determination, Muller realized that new substances do not always fulfil expectations on the contrary they are often bad and only seldom better. Recalling his strict university training under Professor Fichter, Muller told himself, In the field of natural science only persistence and sustained hard work will produce results. . . Now, more than ever, must I continue with the search. ... 

The ENDOR techniques, of course, are not confined to studies of transition metal complexes. A fast growing interest on electron nuclear double and multiple resonance experiments is also noticed in other fields of natural sciences, such as radical, radiation and polymer chemistry, solid state physics, biophysics and mineralogy. 

The International System of Units is founded on seven base quantities (Table 3.1) that cover the whole field of natural science. Again, the system of quantities and equations of mechanics rests on the three base quantities length, mass and time, for which the units meter, kilogram and second are now internationally accepted. The derived unit of force is the Newton (N), being the force that gives the unit mass (kg) a unit acceleration (1 m s-2). The derived unit of energy is the Newton meter (N m). 

From the outset polymer science has involved physicists, chemists, engineers, materials scientists and design engineers. The multidisciplinary nature of polymer science from its earliest days is a feature that is not often exhibited by other fields of natural science until a certain maturity has been reached. The synthetic polymer industry in the UK expanded greatly over the years from... 

Advanced Topics in Science and Technology in China aims to present the latest and most cutting-edge theories, techniques, and methodologies in various research areas in China. It covers all disciplines in the fields of natural science and technology, including but not limited to, computer science, materials science, life sciences, engineering, environmental sciences, mathematics, and physics. 

The phenomenon of spontaneous condensation in a supersaturated vapour is of interest in different fields of natural science and in various technical applications, e.g. wind tunnels and steam turbines. Expecially with respect to Organic Rankine Cycles for heat recovery there exists some interest in the conditions for the onset of spontaneous condensation in the so-called Wilson point and in the influence of the released heat of condensation on the flow field for different working fluids. From this point of view, we started systematic investigations on spontaneous condensation of pure vapours in stationary supersonic nozzle flow with the intention to cover a wide range of thermodynamic state for substances of different molecular structure. In this paper we present experimental results for carbon dioxide and compare them in a first step with results... 

The sensitivity analysis method was employed successfully for studying the mechatrisms of a great number of complex chemical transformations, such as reactions on combustion [33-36], pyrolysis [37,38], the self-oscillation reaction of Belousov-Zhabotinsky [39,40], atmospheric chemistry [41-44], as well as in many other fields of natural science, such as physics, economy, sociology, population science, etc. [7,45,46]. 

D-NMR such as COSY and EMQC were followed and identified as 4-keto-D-arabonate (4KAB = 4-pentulosonate Fig. 13.7). It was the same compound as postulated by Ameyama and Kondo in 1958 (Ameyama and Kondo 1958a, b). There was no report about 4KAB formation in oxidative fermentation by acetic acid bacteria as well as in other fields of natural sciences. 

Naturwissenschaftliche Rundschau [Review of Natural Science] was published by Friedrich Vieweg and Son in Braunschweig starting in 1886. Under the professors who contributed to the journal was also Victor Meyer. Every week, the journal published papers on the progress in all fields of natural science. It was issued until 1912.
