A number of corrections allow the retrieval of the observed structure factors, Fobs,hki, and the game of X-ray crystallography, also known as the solution of the phase problem, is to find the set of atomic coordinates that give a close match between the Fcaic,hki and the Fobs,hki- A first guess must be somehow prepared this problem is now routinely and robustly solved by a technique called direct methods (see Section 5.9). The agreement between observed and calculated structure factors is coded into a discrepancy index traditionally called the F-factor ... 

Viable glass fibers for optical communication are made from glass of an extremely high purity as well as a precise refractive index stmcture. The first fibers produced for this purpose in the 1960s attempted to improve on the quahty of traditional optical glasses, which at that time exhibited losses on the order of 1000 dB/km. To achieve optical transmission over sufficient distance to be competitive with existing systems, the optical losses had to be reduced to below 20 dB/km. It was realized that impurities such as transition-metal ion contamination in this glass must be reduced to unprecedented levels (see Fig. 

GORE. The CORE Electronic Chemistry Library is a joint project of Cornell University, OCLC (On-line Computer Library Center), Bell Communications Research (Bellcore), and the American Chemical Society. The CORE database will contain the full text of American Chemical Society Journals from 1980, associated information from Chemical Abstracts Service, and selected reference texts. It will provide machine-readable text that can be searched and displayed, graphical representations of equations and figures, and full-page document images. The project will examine the performance obtained by the use of a traditional printed index as compared with a hypertext system (SUPERBOOK) and a document retrieval system (Pixlook) (6,116). 

Citation Searching. In the scholarly Hterature, authors cite earHer pubHcations that relate to the work being reported, thus a subject relationship exists between the citing and cited Hterature. This relationship has formed the basis for the Science Citation Index and related products, developed by the Institute for Scientific Information. Known as Scisearch in its on-line version, the Science Citation Index has become an important information retrieval tool in the second half of the twentieth century. It has been used for straightforward subject searching, in which mode it complements traditional indexed databases and indexes. It has also become a popular tool for hihliometric studies of various sorts, such as attempts to measure the relative impact of research carried out by different individuals or organizations, or the relative impact of pubHcations in different journals. 

Citation searching of patents offers a perspective different from either traditional class searching or traditional subject index searching. A citation search on known fundamental patents can lead directiy to improvement patents, even when those patents are so new that they have not yet been indexed. This technique can be especiaHy effective when working in an unfamiliar area, or one which is difficult to index. 

Ruthless adherence to full systematic nomenclature throughout these volumes would serve little useful purpose. While it is necessary for the Chemical Abstracts indexes to avoid colloquial forms, most of our contributors seem to agree that insistence on the use of, e.g. 4(17f)-pyridinone at every point, rather than the traditional but less precise 4-pyridone , produces a pedantic effect on the English style. So old-fashioned forms like pyridone coexist here with systematic names, the choice being dictated by the individual authors of the chapters. 

The two-electron integrals involve the LCAO orbitals, and the time-consuming part of a traditional Cl calculation is the transformation of these to integrals involving the basis functions. This is often referred to as the four-index transformation. Not only that, it turns out that traditional Cl calculations are very slowly convergent we have to add a vast number of excited states in order to improve the energy significantly. 

Techniques for fabricating low-cost optical components such as graded index lenses, microlenses, couplers, splitters, and polarizers are needed to support optical fiber technology. Traditionally, amorphous inorganic materials have been nsed, bnt there are tremendons... 

As 1,2,5-thiadiazole analogues, potent HlV-1 reverse transcriptase inhibitors, some simple 1,2,5-oxadiazoles, compounds 4-6 (Fig. 9), have been synthesized using the traditional Wieland procedure as key for the heterocycle formation [121]. Such as thiadiazole parent compounds, derivative with chlorine atoms on the phenyl ring, i.e., 5, showed the best anti-viral activity. Selectivity index (ratio of cytotoxic concentration to effective concentration) ranked in the order of 5 > 6 > 4. The activity of Fz derivative 6 proved the N-oxide lack of relevance in the studied bioactivity. These products have been claimed in an invention patent [122]. On the other hand, compound 7 (Fig. 9) was evaluated for its nitric oxide (NO)-releasing property (see below) as modulator of the catalytic activity of HlV-1 reverse transcriptase. It was found that NO inhibited dose-dependently the enzyme activity, which is hkely due to oxidation of Cys residues [123]. 

Epinephrine is a nonspecific a- and P-adrenergic agonist. Epinephrine can increase cardiac index and produce significant peripheral vasoconstriction. However, it can also increase lactate levels and impair blood flow to the splanchnic system. Because of these undesirable effects, epinephrine should be reserved for patients who fail to respond to traditional therapies.24,27-28... 

The value of the index n is traditionally taken as 0.6 the well-known six-tenths rule. This value can be used to get a rough estimate of the capital cost if there are not sufficient data available to calculate the index for the particular process. Estrup (1972) gives a critical review of the six-tenths rule. Equation 6.2 is only an approximation, and if sufficient data are available the relationship is best represented on a log-log plot. Garrett (1989) has published capital cost-plant capacity curves for over 250 processes. 

The majority of the names for chemicals in this alphabetically arranged index conform to one of the systematic series permitted under various sections of the IUPAC Definitive Rules for Nomenclature. Where there is a marked difference between these names and the alternative names recommended in the IUPAC-based BS2472 1983 or ASE 1985 nomenclature lists, or long established traditional names, these are given as synonyms in parentheses after the main title. These synonyms also have their own index entry, cross-referenced back to the IUPAC-based names used as bold titles in the text of Volume 1. 

The analysis of the contribution made by increased pharmaceutical spending to the growth in the per capita intensity of health resources suffers from major measurement problems that deprive available indicators of any value. Traditional pharmaceutical price indexes (such as the Laspeyres index, used to calculate the pharmaceutical component of the consumer price index) provide little relevant information in a market in which the introduction of therapeutic innovations is of prime importance the indexes show an apparent freeze, and sometimes even a steep drop (as in the Spanish case). However, the steady rise in the average price per prescription paints a very different picture.
