K) were investigated. From an equation of state for iron the densities at these temperatures could be predicted to enable the simulations to be performed. A periodic system containing 64 atoms was used and the simulation run for 2 ps after equilibration. The calculated pressure agreed within 10% with the experimental values (330 GPa at the inner core boundary and 135GPa at the core-mantle boundary). Additional parameters could also be calculated, including the viscosity, the values for which were at the low end of previous suggestions. 

The possibility that an even larger impact caused the P T extinction received support when Becker and Poreda found that helium and argon atoms were present in the inner cores of some of the fullerenes from the P T boundary sediments (The cover of this book shows a helium atom inside a mol ecule of Ceo) What is special about the fullerene trapped atoms is that the mixtures of both helium and argon isotopes resemble extraterrestrial isotopic mixtures more than earthly ones The He/ He ratio in the P T boundary fullerenes for example is 50 times larger than the natural abundance ratio... 

It must always be borne in mind that when capillary condensation takes place during the course of isotherm determination, the pore walls are already covered with an adsorbed him, having a thickness t determined by the value of the relative pressure (cf. Chapter 2). Thus capillary condensation occurs not directly in the pore itself but rather in the inner core (Fig. 3.7). Consequently the Kelvin equation leads in the first instance to values of the core size rather than the pore size. The conversion of an r value to a pore size involves recourse to a model of pore shape, and also a knowledge of the angle of contact 0 between the capillary condensate and the adsorbed film on the walls. The involvement of 0 may be appreciated by consideration...

The process can be used to recover scrap or low quaUty resins by using them as the core layer, and using outer layers of virgin resins designed for the specific functional needs of the product such as sHp or gloss and appearance. The inner core may be a foamed resin with surface layers of supedor finish resins. Coextmded films often eliminate the need for cosdy lamination processes. 

Reoxidation occurs when the metallic iron in hot DRI reacts with oxygen in the air to form either Ee O or Ee202. The reaction continues as long as the DRI remains hot and sufficient oxygen is avadable. Because reoxidation reactions are exothermic and DRI is a good insulator, it is possible that once reoxidation begins inside a pde, the DRI temperature increases and accelerates the reoxidation rate. Although the inner core of the pde may reach temperatures up to the fusion point of iron, the maximum temperature of the outer parts of the pde will be much lower because of heat dissipation. 

In the irreversible limit R < 0.1), the adsorption front within the particle approaches a shock transition separating an inner core into which the adsorbate has not yet penetrated from an outer layer in which the adsorbed phase concentration is uniform at the saturation value. The dynamics of this process is described approximately by the shrinldng-core model [Yagi and Kunii, Chem. Eng. (Japan), 19, 500 (1955)]. For an infinite fluid volume, the solution is ... 

Alphaviruses, such as Sindbis virus and Semliki Forest virus, are a group of mosquito-borne, enveloped RNA viruses that can cause encephalitis, fever, arthritis and rashes in mammals. These viruses have two protein shells—an outer glycoprotein layer and an inner core— which are separated by a lipid bilayer, a membrane. Studies by cryoelectron microscopy have shown that... 

Fillers are used in tooling and casting application. Not only do they reduce cost but in diluting the resin content they also reduce curing shrinkage, lower the coefficient of expansion, reduce exotherms and may increase thermal conductivity. Sand is frequently used in inner cores whereas metal powders and metal oxide fillers are used in surface layers. Wire wool and asbestos are sometimes used to improve impact strength.

During the discharge one electrode is moved in such a way that the discharge remains stable (this can be monitored by the current value). After this period, a deposit (10-15 mm long) forms on the cathode, which is composed of a hard grey shell formed, and a black inner core. An eye observation of the black core easily reveals a columnar texture in the direction of the deposit growth. The columns are actually formed by bundles of CNTs. 

Fireball A burning fuel-air cloud whose energy is emitted primarily in the form of radiant heat. The inner core of the cloud consists almost completely of fuel, whereas the outer layer (where ignition first occurs) consists of a flammable fuel-air mixture. As the buoyancy forces of hot gases increase, the burning cloud tends to rise, expand, and assume a spherical shape. 

Since 1960, the inner core has been made from c/5-poly-butadiene by the compression moulding technique. This replaced the earlier material made from a suspension of barytes or bentonite clay in water and glycerine or the winding of rubber threads made from t /5-polyisoprene, either from latex or a dry rubber compound. A typical thread recipe is given Table 4. 

Premixed Flame. For this type of flame, the fuel and oxidizer—both gases—arc mixed together before flowing to the flame zone (the thin region of the flame). A typical example is the inner core of a Bunsen burner (Figure 1), or combustion in an auto-... 

The simplest way for the preparation of bacteriochlorins is the reduction of porphyrins or chlorins with diimide or sodium in pentan-1-ol. The course of these reactions depends upon whether a metal is present in the inner core of the macrotetracycle, or not.3a h... 

Finally, the isoporphyrins with a nitrogen atom inverted from the inner core into a /5-pyrrolic position can be prepared by classical porphyrin synthetic routes when the pyrrolelinking CH2X or formyl group is attached to the /J-position of the pyrrole subunit instead of the a-position of the pyrrole as in the synthesis of regular porphyrins.
