That effective hamiltonian according to formula 29, with neglect of W"(R), appears to be the most comprehensive and practical currently available for spectral reduction when one seeks to take into account all three principal extramechanical terms, namely radial functions for rotational and vibrational g factors and adiabatic corrections. The form of this effective hamiltonian differs slightly from that used by van Vleck [9], who failed to recognise a connection between the electronic contribution to the rotational g factor and rotational nonadiabatic terms [150,56]. There exists nevertheless a clear evolution from the advance in van Vleck s [9] elaboration of Dunham s [5] innovative derivation of vibration-rotational energies into the present effective hamiltonian in formula 29 through the work of Herman [60,66]. The notation g for two radial functions pertaining to extra-mechanical effects in formula 29 alludes to that connection between... 

Pearce and Yagi (2004) suggest that there are four particular sources of methodological innovation in tourism research, some of which can be applied directly to tourist behaviour study. The four sources of innovation derive from ... 

Engineering knowledge and application drives innovation, social and economic development around the world. Our physical infrastructure is designed, built and maintained by engineers, and most innovations derive from engineering (Metcalfe... 

Besides the advantages that burner MSRs share with breeders, there are numerous pluses that are specific to the burner approach. Primarily are those related to system simplicity and cost innovation deriving from the lack of the need for continuous on-site reprocessing and the great optimization possible when losses to neutron economy are no longer... 

The subject matter was organized into four broad areas (a) Theories of Liquid Structures, (b) Ionic and Electronic Processes, (c) Interfacial Phenomena, and (d) Breakdown and Conduction. These four areas covered the bulk of the Institute. In addition, results of current research were presented in two Poster Sessions, and Future Research Directions and technological innovations derived from liquid-phase studies were discussed in a special session. 

Concern for personnel exposure to hydrazine has led to several innovations in packaging to minimize direct contact with hydrazine, eg, Olin s E-Z dmm systems. Carbohydrazide was introduced into this market for the same reason it is a soHd derivative of hydrazine, considered safer to handle because of its low vapor pressure. It hydrolyzes to release free hydrazine at elevated temperatures in the boiler. It is, however, fairly expensive and contributes to dissolved soHds (carbonates) in the water (193). In field tests, catalyzed hydrazine outperformed both hydrazine and carbohydrazide when the feedwater oxygen and iron levels were critical (194). A pubUshed comparison is available (195) of these and other proposed oxygen scavengers, eg, diethyUiydroxylarnine, ydroquinone, methyethylketoxime, and isoascorbic acid. 

The factors that favour successful industrial innovation have been memorably analysed by a team at the Science Policy Research Unit at Sussex University, in England (Rothwell et al. 1974). In this project (named SAPPHO) 43 pairs of attempted similar innovations one successful in each pair, one a commercial failure - were critically compared, in order to derive valid generalisations. One conclusion was The responsible individuals (i.e., technical innovator, business innovator, chief executive, and - especially - product champion) in the successful attempts are usually more senior and have greater authority than their counterparts who fail . 

When unpleasant odors resulting from manufacturing processes or waste-disposal operations give rise to public complaints they should be identified and quantified prior to deriving methods of abatement. Such work is often innovative, requiring the design and fabrication of new equipment for the sampling and analysis of pollutants. 

Another recent innovation to improve the efficiency of polymer addition to water and derive the maximum yield from hydrophylic polymers was introduced by Briscoe(165,166). The method involved the preparation of a stabilized polymer slurry (SPS) to be added to water. Briscoe used water as the suspension liquid, usually also containing dissolved KC1 as a clay stabilizer, and formulated a package of inhibitors (borate and caustic) to prevent the polymer from hydrating until the pH was lowered. These concentrates remain in routine use today. 

By analogy with B-trialkylaminoborazi ne and polyborazine derived therefrom, the first route envisioned to poly(borylaminoborazine) was the thermal condensation of molecular precursors under a convenient atmosphere. As detailed earlier the innovative idea behind this procedure is to tailor the polymeric precursor structure by increasing the distance between the two borazinic rings. For that purpose, we explored... 

The idea here was to examine which pair of techniques and individual columns could lead to the best separations in 2DLC. This is achievable by using ID separations and then comparing how the retention of each component varies across the separation space. Another innovation here was the use of IT-derived metrics such as information entropy, informational similarity, and the synentropy. As stated in this paper, The informational similarity of 2D chromatographic systems, H is a measure of global... 

The nonreactive base structures of cyanine dyes (or carbocyanines) have been used for many years as components in photographic emulsions to increase the range and sensitivity of film and also in CD-R and DVD-R optical disks to record digital information. A major innovation came when Ernst et al. (1989) and Waggoner et al. (1993) recognized that cyanine dyes would make excellent labels for fluorescence detection, and for this reason, they synthesized reactive dye derivatives, which then could be covalently attached to proteins and other molecules.
