Other studies followed, including an analysis of the observed ultraviolet spectrum by Van Catledge and Allinger, that led these latter authors to state without equivocation the molecule ([18]annulene) does not have this structure [the X-ray structure, approximately D ] in solution. It is, of course, always possible that the structure in the crystal may differ from that in solution and/or from that in the gas phase. Conformational structures sometimes do differ in the crystal, relative to the other phases, but the kind of phase-dependent structural difference that would be required here is not known experimentally to occur in any other case, to the knowledge of the present author. 

The time-dependent structure factor S k,t), which is proportional to the intensity I k,t) measured in an elastic scattering experiment, is a measure of the strength of the spatial correlations in the ordering system with wavenumber k at time t. It exliibits a peak whose position is inversely proportional to the average domain size. As the system phase separates (orders) the peak moves towards increasingly smaller wavenumbers (see figure A3.3.3.

The properties of an alloy (yield strength, toughness, oxidation resistance, etc.) depend critically on its constitution and on two further features of its structure the scale (nm or ym or mm) and shape (round, or rod-like, or plate-like) of the phases, not described by the constitution. The constitution, and the scale and shape of the phases, depend on the thermal treatment that the material has had. 

It was shown in the preceding section that PECD can be anticipated to have an enhanced sensitivity (compared to the cross-section or p anisotropy parameter) to any small variations in the photoelectron scattering phase shifts. This is because the chiral parameter is structured from electric dipole operator interference terms between adjacent -waves, each of which depends on the sine of the associated channels relative phase shifts. In contrast, the cross-section has no phase dependence, and the p parameter has only a partial dependence on the cosine of the relative phase. The distinction between the sine... 

Why should calculations of evidently converge more slowly than those for b, and both more slowly than cross-section calculations It seems likely that this is a consequence of the very different interference structure of these three terms and their different phase dependence— particularly the slower convergence of the sin(ri — riy /) terms in the b expression (see Section III.C). When phase differences are small, as they will be for higher (. waves that are partly attenuated in the molecular core region by centrifugal barriers, the rapidly varying sine term will lend them a disproportionate influence on the final... 

In the production of crude oil, the greatest part of the crude oil occurs as a water-in-oil emulsion. The composition of the continuous phase depends on the water/oil ratio, the natural emulsifier systems contained in the oil, and the origin of the emulsion. The natural emulsifiers contained in crude oils have a complex chemical structure, so that, to overcome their effect, petroleum-emulsion demulsifiers must be selectively developed. As new oil fields are developed, and as the production conditions change at older fields, there is a constant need for demulsifiers that lead to a rapid separation into water and oil, as well as minimal-residual water and salt mixtures.

Fluorescence detection was selected to increase sensitivity and selectivity. Histamine has no natural fluorescence and a post-column derivatization with OPT was found to be facile. The OPT reaction with histamine or any primary amine will only occur in an alkaline medium. The derivatization reagent, pumped into the system after the mixture has been separated on the column, must be strongly basic to neutralize the acid in the mobile phase. The structure of the OPT adduct has been found to be dependent upon the pH at which the reaction is carried out as wel1 as the sol vent system (15).
