Hawthorne units

The amount of Hquid crystals produced each year for appHcations is several tens of tons, with the vast majority designed specifically for display appHcations. Several of the largest producers of commercial Hquid crystals are E. Merck, Hoffmann-LaRoche Inc., and Chisso. E. M. Chemicals (Hawthorne, New York) is the distributor for E. Merck in the United States and Chisso America Inc. has an office in New York. Hoffmann-LaRoche and Di Nippon Inc. have joined forces to form a new company, Rodic. 

The Hawthorne and Davis analysis is first generalised for the [CBT]i open circuit plant, with fuel addition for combustion,/ per unit air flow, changing the working fluid from air in the compressor to gas products in the turbine, as indicated in Fig. 3.11. Real gas effects are present in this open gas turbine plant specific heats and their ratio are functions off and T, and allowance is also made for pressure losses. 

Thomas and Hawthorne have synthesized unimolecular, nanospherical boron-rich dodeca(carboranyl)-substituted closomers (122) (Fig. 71) for their potential application as drug-delivery platforms for BNCT.148 The substituted closomers were synthesized by reacting carborane acid chloride with the dodecahydroxy dodecaborate closomer in methylene chloride by utilizing a threefold excess of the former in triethylamine. The twelve pendant closo-1,2-carborane units in the closomer could...

Furnace injection systems are similar to the tail-end design except the limestone additive is injected into the furnace and removed in the scrubber. Two of these units, one of 125 MW and another of 430 MW, are installed at the Lawrence Station of Kansas Power and Light Co. Two more units of this design, each of 100 MW, are installed at the Hawthorn Station of Kansas City Power and Light Co. although one is currently being operated as a tail-end system on low sulfur Wyoming coal. 

Schindler and Hawthorne [29] presented novel insights into the chemical composition and occurrence of uranyl oxide hydrates using a combined binary representation and bond-valence approach. In essence, this approach looks for conditions of overlap of the bonding requirements emanating from the stmctural unit and interstitial components. The outcome is a series of predicted compositions and mineral stabilities. 

Several monitoring studies have been conducted in the United States to measure the concentration of formaldehyde in indoor environments (EPA 1987d Gammage and Hawthorne 1985 Hawthorne et al. 1985, 1986b Stock 1987). The results for a variety of housing types and ages have been compiled by Gold et al. (1993) and are presented in Table 5-3. Much of the data was collected in older homes, in... 

Hawthorn preparations are popular in Europe, and are gaining popularity in the United States (Tyler, 1993 Anonymous, 1994). Hawthorn is promoted for use in heart failure, hypertension, arteriosclerosis, angina pectoris, Buerger s disease, paroxysmal tachycardia (Blumenthal, 1997), heart valve murmurs, sore throat, skin sores, diarrhea, and abdominal distention (Williamson and Wyandt, 1997).

The Latin name for mistletoe is Viscum album. It is a semiparasitic plant that grows on old apple, ash, and hawthorn trees. It is one of very few cancer medications with a rich traditional history. Ancient Greeks used it as an anticancer medication, and it was a popular herbal medicine of the Druids, who used it for treating epilepsy and nervous system disorders. Dr. Rudolf Steiner, founder of the Society for Cancer Research, advocated its use in 1920 for the treatment of human cancer. " Presently, it is widely used in Europe and North America to treat arthritis and rheumatism and for palhative treatment of malignant tumors. Viscum album is listed in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States Mistletoe is marketed under the brand names Iscador, Isorel, Helixor, Eurixor, Vysorel, etc. 

The history of human factors may be traced back to 1898, when Frederick W. Taylor conducted various studies to determine the most suitable design of shovels [5]. In 1918 the United States Department of Defense established laboratories to perform research on various aspects of human factors at the Brooks and Wright-Patterson Air Force Bases [6]. In 1924 the National Research Council (USA) initiated a study concerned with the various aspects of human factors including the effects of varying illumination, length of workday, and rest period on productivity at the Hawthorne Plant of Western Electric in the state of Illinois [7,8]. By 1945 human factors came to be recognized as a specialized discipline, and currently a vast number of publications are available on human factors.

The birth of an extraordinary family, the carboranes and metallocarboranes, whose father is Frederic Hawthorne, also occurred during this decade in the United States. Later, W.N. Liscomb obtained a Nobel Prize (1976) for the clarification of the structures of boranes. 

Most known polyhedral boron hydrides are decahydro-doi o-decaborate [B,oH,o] , dodeca-hydro-c/oio-dodecaborate [B,2H,2] anions, and dicarba-cZoso-dodecaboranes [C2B,2Hi2] (see Figure 9.1). The first derivatives of [B,oH,o] and [Bi2Hi2] anions were prepared by M. F. Hawthorne, and A. R. Pitochelli [2], and the synthesis and properties of carboranes were first reported at the end of 1963 by chemists from the the Soviet Union and the United States [3,4]. 

This chapter is devoted to the crystallization of fluoroaluminates. Emphasis is given to hybrid organic-inorganic salts that are synthesized in hydro(solvo)thermal conditions numerous polyanions, derived from the primary building anion (AlFg) , are now evidenced, together with extended one- or two-dimensional architectures. These species are compared with the (Al, F) units that are found in inorganic fluoroaluminates for which a classification of minerals was proposed by F. C. Hawthorne in 1984 . ...
