Non-existence

It is particularly in the serial inspection of castings, that radioscopy constitutes state-of-the-art when applied in conjunction with systems for image intensification, digital image processing and automatic image evaluation. For the examination of welds, however, standardization is still non-existent, thus rendering more difficult the application of this inspection technique.As a consequence the approval procedures of the respective supervisory or certification boards are often complicated and of necessity set up for each individual case. 

Since a standard is so far non-existent, the full utilization of the advantages in radioscopy is not possible. In particular for the inspection of welds this sometimes will lead to costly individual approval procedures by the supervisory institutions. 

The scientific area is often characterized by a highly fluctuating and international workforce. This makes it necessary to document the source code and to represent e. g. the class structure in order to introduce new staff to the system easily. Conversely, non-existent documentation may lead to the necessity of reimplementation. 

Following the classification of Chapter 4.01, three classes will be considered, (a) Compounds isomeric with aromatic compounds (6), (7) and (8). The quaternary, non-aromatic salts (Scheme 7, Chapter 4.01) will be discussed only in connection with protonation studies which lead to the conclusion of their non-existence. The carbonyl derivatives (9), (10), (13) and (14) will also be included here because it is possible to write an aromatic tautomer for each one, (9 )-(14 ), even if it is energetically unfavoured, (b) Dihydro compounds. In this class not only pyrazolines (15), (16) and (17) but also pyrazolidinones (18) and pyrazolinediones like (1) are included, (c) Tetrahydro compounds. Besides the pyrazolidines (19), the pyrazolidinetriones (2) are included here. 

On the other hand, theoretical methods allow an insight into the structure of non-existent molecules like 2//-indazole (37) or the anion of indazole (38). INDO calculations have been performed by Palmer et al. on the anion of indazole (38) (75JCS(P1)1695). The optimized geometry obtained by them is shown in Figure 7. The N—N bond distance is longer in the... 

Measurement of contaminants in fish has concentrated on muscle tissue since the aim has generally been to protect the health of the consumer rather than that of the fish. Endocrine tissue such as the gonads has been much more rarely examined, while data for adrenal, thyroid and pituitary levels are virtually non-existent. More data are available for the liver, as a lipid rich tissue and the major site of xenobiotic catabolism, but the concentrations have rarely been related to its capacity to produce vitellogenin or metabolise endogenous hormones. Tissue concentrations of a wide range of chemicals, are at a level which suggests that, either alone or in combination, they will cause significant endocrine disruption in fish in many polluted habitats. 

If the surge is very steep, say, with a front time of 0.2 jjs. or less, and the cable length is short, say, lO m (presumed), it may inflict all its severity to only the entrance coil of the machine and sometimes even only a few entrance turns of this coil. However, with the technological improve-ment of switching devices, the arc prestrikes are now less predominant or non-existent and hence, the switching surge may not be as steep as described here. 

No industrially significant reaction has 3 > 0,3 (or with y = 20, and D/a = 1, 5 > 5) and only above this value are the interesting S-shaped curves possible. Of the three values of T, the effectiveness at one value of the Thiele modulus < >, the middle one is an artificial, non-existent solution. The two other values for T show the possibility of discontinuity inside the pellet. While this is possible, it is very unlikely to occur. 

With a high heat removal rate, corresponding to an almost vertical line, as was the case in the experiments in the CSTR, the full heat generation curve could be measured. An intersection could be achieved between the heat generation curve and the very steep heat removal line at the point where the non-existent middle point was, but this was just one of the many stable solutions possible and not an unstable point. ... 

Using high heat capacity systems, some experimenters tried to stabilize around the (non-existent) unstable middle intersection, and believed that they had accomplished this. In reality they were seeing a jump to a higher... 

Information on load distributions was virtually non-existent until quite recently although much of it is very rudimentary, probably because collecting data is very expensive, the measuring transducers being difficult to install on the test product or prototype (Carter, 1997). It has been cited that at least one prototype is required to make a reliability evaluation (Fajdiga et al., 1996), and this must surely be to understand the loads that could be experienced in service as close as possible. 

Quasi-resonant and resonant transition switching power supplies have a much more attractive radiated spectral shape. This is because the transitions are forced to be at a lower frequency by the resonant elements, hence only the low frequency spectral components are exhibited (below 30MHz). The lower rate of change during the transitions are responsible for behavior. The higher frequency spectral components are almost non existent. The near-held radiated spectrum of a quasi-resonant, hyback converter are shown in Figure E-2. The quasi-resonant and soft switching families of converters are much quieter and easier to hlter. 

The addition of Vamac B-124 to ethyl cyanoacrylate has a more pronounced effect on peel strength, both at ambient temperature and after thermal exposure. After 24 h at ambient temperature, the peel strength of the rubber-toughened formulation is almost 40% greater than the control formulation A without rubber. After heating the test specimens for 2 h at 121°C, the peel strength of formulation A, is almost non-existent, while that of C has increased significantly, as seen in Fig. 7. 

New lands (1864) was the first to predict correctly the existence of a missing element when he calculated an atomic weight of 73 for an element between silicon and tin, close to the present value of 72.61 for germanium (discovered by C. A. Winkler in 1886). However, his method of detecting potential triads was unreliable and he predicted (non-existent) elements between... 

A further group of elements, the transuranium elements, has been synthesized by artificial nuclear reactions in the period from 1940 onwards their relation to the periodic table is discussed fully in Chapter 31 and need not be repeated here. Perhaps even more striking today are the predictions, as yet unverified, for the properties of the currently non-existent superheavy elements.Elements up to lawrencium (Z = 103) are actinides (5f) and the 6d transition series starts with element 104. So far only elements 104-112 have been synthesized, ) and, because there is as yet no agreement on trivial names for some of these elements (see pp. 1280-1), they are here referred to by their atomic numbers. A systematic naming scheme was approved by lUPAC in 1977 but is not widely used by researchers in the field. It involves the use of three-letter symbols derived directly from the atomic number by using the... 

Attempts to classify carbides according to structure or bond type meet the same difficulties as were encountered with hydrides (p. 64) and borides (p. 145) and for the same reasons. The general trends in properties of the three groups of compounds are, however, broadly similar, being most polar (ionic) for the electropositive metals, most covalent (molecular) for the electronegative non-metals and somewhat complex (interstitial) for the elements in the centre of the d block. There are also several elements with poorly characterized, unstable, or non-existent carbides, namely the later transition elements (Groups 11 and 12), the platinum metals, and the post transition-metal elements in Group 13. 

Chlorous acid is the least stable of the oxoacids of chlorine it cannot be isolated but is known in dilute aqueous solution. HOBrO and HOIO are even less stable, and, if they exist at all, have only a fleeting presence in aqueous solutions. Several chlorites have been isolated and NaC102 is sufficiently stable to be manufactured as an article of commerce on the kilotonne pa scale. Little reliable information is available on bromites and still less is established for iodites which are essentially non-existent. 

The quest for perbromic acid and perbromates and the various reasons adduced for their apparent non-existence make fascinating and salutary reading. " The esoteric radiochemical synthesis of Br04 in 1968 using the /3-decay of radioactive Se, whilst not providing a viable route to macroscopic quantities of perbromate. 

Cyclobutadiene complexes are also well established (hough (hey must be synthesized by indirect routes since the parent dienes are either unstable or non-existent. Four geneial routes are available ... 

Perhaps because of inadequate or non-existent back-bonding (p. 923), the only neutral, binary carbonyl so far reported is Ti(CO)g which has been produced by condensation of titanium metal vapour with CO in a matrix of inert gases at 10-15 K, and identified spectroscopically. By contrast, if MCI4 (M = Ti, Zr) in dimethoxy-ethane is reduced with potassium naphthalenide in the presence of a crown ether (to complex the K+) under an atmosphere of CO, [M(CO)g] salts are produced. These not only involve the metals in the exceptionally low formal oxidation state of —2 but are thermally stable up to 200 and 130°C respectively. However, the majority of their carbonyl compounds are stabilized by n-bonded ligands, usually cyclopentadienyl, as in [M(/j5-C5H5)2(CO)2] (Fig. 21.8). 

However, with the application in the 19, iOs of crystal held theory to transition-metal ehemistry it was realized that CFSEs were unfavourable to the lormation of tetrahedral d complexes, and previous assignments were re-examined. A typical ca.se was Ni(acac)i. which had often been cited as an example of a tetrahedral nickel complex, but which was shown - in I9. I6 to be trimeric and octahedral. The over-zealous were then inclined to regard tetrahedral d" as non-existent until Hrst L.. M. Venanz.i and then N., S. Gill and R. S. Nyholm" demonstrated the existence of discrete tetrahedral species which in some cases were also rather easily prepared. 

This shows that a a = a,a,- = 0, i.e. attempting to create an already existing orbital, or trying to delete a non-existing orbital, generates a zero wave function.
