Negative values

The value of r varies between plus and minus one, the positive values indicating a positive correlation (as x increases, so does y), and the negative values indicating a... 

The line curves relative to the scan area 2 show a sudden decrease of the stress level down to negative values. 

If //is 00 (very large) or T is zero, tire system is in the lowest possible and a non-degenerate energy state and U = -N xH. If eitiier // or (3 is zero, then U= 0, corresponding to an equal number of spins up and down. There is a synnnetry between the positive and negative values of Pp//, but negative p values do not correspond to thennodynamic equilibrium states. The heat capacity is... 

A. Since tire applied field is red detuned, all A have negative values. Now in order for tire cooling mechanism to be effective tire optical pumping time tp should be comparable to tire time required for tire atom with velocity v to travel from tire bottom to tire top of a potential hill,... 

The requirement of having two negative values and one positive is also fulfilled. Since this subject has been treated several times before (see Sections Vin and IX) it will be discussed within the next subject, related to the locations of the negative terms, that requires some analysis. 

When no gap penalty is used then the Needleman-Wunsch alignment may contain a largt unrealistic number of gaps. The simplest type of gap penalty (other than not to have one) i to use a length-dependent scheme in which one assigns a fixed negative value for each insertio ... 

This equation is a quadratic and has two roots. For quantum mechanical reasons, we are interested only in the lower root. By inspection, x = 0 leads to a large number on the left of Eq. (1-10). Letting x = leads to a smaller number on the left of Eq. (1-10), but it is still greater than zero. Evidently, increasing a approaches a solution of Eq. (1-10), that is, a value of a for which both sides are equal. By systematically increasing a beyond 1, we will approach one of the roots of the secular matrix. Negative values of x cause the left side of Eq. (1-10) to increase without limit hence the root we are approaching must be the lower root. 

In order to obtain this savings in the computational cost, orbitals are symmetry-adapted. As various positive and negative combinations of orbitals are used, there are a number of ways to break down the total wave function. These various orbital functions will obey different sets of symmetry constraints, such as having positive or negative values across a mirror plane of the molecule. These various symmetry sets are called irreducible representations. 

The more negative values are those for which structure 2 is the more stable.

Some writers use a dash over the characteristic to indicate a negative value for example, log 0.004657 = 7.6681 - 10 = 3.6681... 

Sign Conventions Since the reaction of interest occurs at the working electrode, the classification of current is based on this reaction. A current due to the analyte s reduction is called a cathodic current and, by convention, is considered positive. Anodic currents are due to oxidation reactions and carry a negative value. 

The response surfaces in Figure 14.2 are plotted for a limited range of factor levels (0 < A < 10, 0 < B < 10), but can be extended toward more positive or more negative values. This is an example of an unconstrained response surface. Most response surfaces of interest to analytical chemists, however, are naturally constrained by the nature of the factors or the response or are constrained by practical limits set by the analyst. The response surface in Figure 14.1, for example, has a natural constraint on its factor since the smallest possible concentration for the analyte is zero. Furthermore, an upper limit exists because it is usually undesirable to extrapolate a calibration curve beyond the highest concentration standard.
