Integers summing

The sum over n. can now be perfonned, but this depends on the statistics that the particles in the ideal gas obey. Fenni particles obey the Pauli exclusion principle, which allows only two possible values n. = 0, 1. For Bose particles, n. can be any integer between zero and infinity. Thus the grand partition fiinction is... 

Several important points about the rate law are shown in equation A5.4. First, the rate of a reaction may depend on the concentrations of both reactants and products, as well as the concentrations of species that do not appear in the reaction s overall stoichiometry. Species E in equation A5.4, for example, may represent a catalyst. Second, the reaction order for a given species is not necessarily the same as its stoichiometry in the chemical reaction. Reaction orders may be positive, negative, or zero and may take integer or noninteger values. Finally, the overall reaction order is the sum of the individual reaction orders. Thus, the overall reaction order for equation A5.4 isa-l-[3-l-y-l-5-l-8. 

Mixed-integer programming contains integer variables with the values of either 0 or 1. These variables represent a stmcture or substmcture. A special constraint about the stmctures states that of a set of (stmcture) integer variables only one of them can have a value of 1 expressed in a statement the sum of the values of (alternate) variables is equal to 1. In this manner, the arbitrary relations between stmctures can be expressed mathematically and then the optimal solution is found with the help of a computer program. (52). 

If n is not a positive integer, the sum formula no longer apphes and an infinite series results for (a + by. The coefficients are obtained from the first formulas in this case. 

The mean conversion of all the groups is the sum of the products of the individual conversions and their volume fractions of the total flow. Since the groups are small, the sum is replaced by the integal. Thus,... 

This potential ( )(r) is infinite if the central cell is not neutral, i.e., the sum of qi is not zero, and otherwise is an example of a conditionally convergent infinite series, as discussed above, so a careful treatment is necessary. The potential depends on the order of summation, that is, the order in which partial sums over n are computed. For example, for positive integers K, define ( )s (r) as... 

To obtain the potential (jtaCr), we note that ( )2(r + mL) = ( )2(r) for any integer triple m, because this is simply a shifted sum over images. Thus ( )2(r) is a periodic function of r. Similarly, the source density p2, given by the sum of the co-ion densities over atoms... 

These reciprocal lattice vectors, which have units of and are also parallel to the surface, define the LEED pattern in k-space. Each diffraction spot corresponds to the sum of integer multiples of at and at-... 

The problem of Sec. 12 can be stated in this special situation as follows Let It be an arbitrary permutation group of degree 5 and /cj, /cj,. .., denote n non-negative integers whose sum is s. How many nonequivalent ways modulo H are there to place /Cj balls of the first, balls of the second,. .., k balls of the n-th color in 5 slots According to Sec. 16 the solution is established by introducing m cycle index of H and expanding the... 

This equation is known as the rate law for the reaction. The concentration of a reactant is described by A cL4/df is the rate of change of A. The units of the rate constant, represented by k, depend on the units of the concentrations and on the values of m, n, and p. The parameters m, n, and p represent the order of the reaction with respect to A, B, and C, respectively. The exponents do not have to be integers in an empirical rate law. The order of the overall reaction is the sum of the exponents (m, n, and p) in the rate law. For non-reversible first-order reactions the scale time, tau, which was introduced in Chapter 4, is simply 1 /k. The scale time for second-and third-order reactions is a bit more difficult to assess in general terms because, among other reasons, it depends on what reactant is considered. 

This definition for reaction order is directly meaningful only for irreversible or forward reactions that have rate expressions in the form of Equation (1.20). Components A, B,... are consumed by the reaction and have negative stoichiometric coefficients so that m = —va, n = —vb,. .. are positive. For elementary reactions, m and n must be integers of 2 or less and must sum to 2 or less. 

In general, each concentration has some exponent (here, y and z). Each exponent is called the order of the reaction with respect to that particular species. In Equation, y is the order of reaction with respect to species A, and z is the order with respect to species B. When the value of y is 1, the reaction is called first order in A when the value of z is 2, the reaction is called second order in B, and so on. Orders of reaction are small integers or simple fractions. The most common orders are 1 and 2. The sum of the exponents is known as the overall order of the reaction. 

The first summation on the right-hand side is the sum of integers from 0 to (n — 1) and is equal to n(n — l)/2 (n terms multiplied by the average value of each term). The second summation on the right-hand side has n terms, each equal to unity. Thus, we obtain... 

As vectors a, b and c we choose the three basis vectors that also serve to define the unit cell (Section 2.2). Any translation vector t in the crystal can be expressed as the vectorial sum of three basis vectors, t = ua + vb + wc, where u, v and w are positive or negative integers. 

Figure G.l If the real (non-integer) number of shells is calculated the heat exchange profiles can be divided in any way and the sum is always the same.

This statement is often taken as a basic theorem of representation theory. It is found that for any symmetry group there is only one set of k integers (zero or positive), the sum of whose squares is equal to g, the order of the group. Hence, from Eq. (29), the number of times that each irreducible representation appears in the reduced representation, as well as its dimension, can be determined for any group.
