Graphic conventions

In this book, we have used the following typographical and graphical conventions. 

The birth of ethnicity cookie-cutter depictions of the peoples of Europe contrast sharply with an earlier era s graphic conventions of physiognomy, race, and descent. Detroit Free Press, 1941. 

Various approaches and graphical conventions have been used in drawing conceptual model diagrams. Consideration could be given to recommending a standardized approach for use in probabilistic assessments.

Answer Gluconeogenesis A graphical convention for specifying molecular configuration in which horizontal lines represent bonds that extend above the plane of the paper... 

Figure 8.3 shows a preimage set with the same graphical conventions as in Figure 8.2. 

A graphical convention we ll use open dots to denote unstable fixed points, and solid black dots to denote Liapunov stable fixed points. This convention is consistent with that used in previous chapters. 

Various graphic conventions are used in this book to represent atoms and molecules—letters for atoms, dots for electrons not involved in bonding, and lines for electrons in bonds—but it is important to keep in mind from the outset that the model that most closely approximates our current understanding of reality at the atomic and molecular level is the cloudy, indeterminate—one might even say poetic—image of the orbital." ... 

Fig. 7.27 Streamlines and modulus of the field. The graphical conventions are the same as in Fig. 7.2. The plot planes are (left) parallel to a face at a distance z = 2 bohr (right) parallel to the plane of the H nuclei, at z = 2.62896 bohr. The maximum modulus (step between two consecutive contours) in au is 0.15 (1.5 x 10 ) on the left, and 9.3 x 10 (1 x 10" ) on the right...

To visualize the stereochemical relationships in tetrahedral molecules the following graphical conventions have been established, among which can be freely chosen according to personal gusto.
