Finite Difference Method To apply the finite difference method, we first spread grid points through the domain. Figure 3-49 shows a uniform mesh of n points (nonuniform meshes are possible, too). The unknown, here c(x), at a grid point x, is assigned the symbol Cj = c(Xi). The finite difference method can be derived easily by using a Taylor expansion of the solution about this point. Expressions for the derivatives are ... 

Direct Molecular Angular Correlations. Hitherto the molecules were assiuned to be statistically independent of one another in the medium and to be able to present all possible orientations in space. In dense media, however, mutual interactions have to be taken into consideration as a result of which the mutual orientations of the molecules become statistically dependent With regard to formula (167), one now obtains in place of (166a) the following starting-point expression for the Kerr constant ... 

For each frequency 100 points were taken along a line running from the surface of the conductor into a depth of 30 mm in that region below the coil, where the maximum eddy currents are located (dashed vertical lines in the sketch). These data are fitted by appropriate polynomials to obtain an analytical expression for s (to, z) in the frequency and depth interval mentioned above. 

Most of the situations encountered in capillarity involve figures of revolution, and for these it is possible to write down explicit expressions for and R2 by choosing plane 1 so that it passes through the axis of revolution. As shown in Fig. II-7n, R then swings in the plane of the paper, i.e., it is the curvature of the profile at the point in question. R is therefore given simply by the expression from analytical geometry for the curvature of a line... 

Derive the expression for the electric field around a point dipole, Eq. VI-5, by treating the dipole as two charges separated by a distance d, then moving to distances X d. 

These concluding chapters deal with various aspects of a very important type of situation, namely, that in which some adsorbate species is distributed between a solid phase and a gaseous one. From the phenomenological point of view, one observes, on mechanically separating the solid and gas phases, that there is a certain distribution of the adsorbate between them. This may be expressed, for example, as ria, the moles adsorbed per gram of solid versus the pressure P. The distribution, in general, is temperature dependent, so the complete empirical description would be in terms of an adsorption function ria = f(P, T). 

AS )) the function to be minimized is exp (-AS p/R)/ [36]. A quantitative expression for AS can be found by noting that the A monomers in an unstrained loop (N > 4) have essentially two possible confonnations, pointing either inwards or outwards. For loops smaller than a critical size the inward ones are in an apolar environment, since the enclosed water no longer has bulk properties, and the outward ones are in polar bulk water hence the electrostatic charges on... 

A further model Hamiltonian that is tailored for the treatment of non-adiabatic systems is the vibronic coupling (VC) model of Koppel et al. [65]. This provides an analytic expression for PES coupled by non-adiabatic effects, which can be fitted to ab initio calculations using only a few data points. As a result, it is a useful tool in the description of photochemical systems. It is also very useful in the development of dynamics methods, as it provides realistic global surfaces that can be used both for exact quantum wavepacket dynamics and more approximate methods. 

In Section XIV.A.2, we intend to obtain the vector function x q, 0) for a given distribution of conical intersections. Thus, first we have to derive an expression for a conical intersection removed from the origin, namely, assumed to be located at some point, ( /),0jo), in the plane. 

We use the sine series since the end points are set to satisfy exactly the three-point expansion [7]. The Fourier series with the pre-specified boundary conditions is complete. Therefore, the above expansion provides a trajectory that can be made exact. In addition to the parameters a, b and c (which are determined by Xq, Xi and X2) we also need to calculate an infinite number of Fourier coefficients - d, . In principle, the way to proceed is to plug the expression for X t) (equation (17)) into the expression for the action S as defined in equation (13), to compute the integral, and optimize the Onsager-Machlup action with respect to all of the path parameters. 

Besides the expressions for a surface derived from the van der Waals surface (see also the CPK model in Section 2.11.2.4), another model has been established to generate molecular surfaces. It is based on the molecular distribution of electronic density. The definition of a Limiting value of the electronic density, the so-called isovalue, results in a boundary layer (isoplane) [187]. Each point on this surface has an identical electronic density value. A typical standard value is about 0.002 au (atomic unit) to represent electronic density surfaces. 

Explicit expressions for the fluxes can also be found in the case of a ternary mixture, though they are appreciably more complicated than those for a binary mixture. The best starting point is equations (5.7) and (5.8). When there are three components in the mixture it is easy to check that equations (5,8) and the condition = 0 are satisfied by...

As R oo, the CSF energies (i H are more diffieult to "intuit" beeause the a and a orbitals beeome degenerate (in the homonuelear ease) or nearly so. To pursue this point and arrive at an energy ordering for the CSFs that is appropriate to the R region, it is useful to express eaeh of the above CSFs in terms of the atomie orbitals Sx and Sy that eomprise a and a. To do so, the ECAO-MO expressions for a and a. ... 

The more recently developed methods define an energy expression for the combined calculation and then use that expression to compute gradients for a geometry optimization. Some of the earlier methods would use a simpler level of theory for the geometry optimization and then add additional energy corrections to a final single point calculation. The current generation is considered to be the superior technique. 

If the same alkyl group occurs more than once as a side chain, this is indicated by the prefixes di-, tri-, tetra-, etc. Side chains are cited in alphabetical order (before insertion of any multiplying prefix). The name of a complex radical (side chain) is considered to begin with the first letter of its complete name. Where names of complex radicals are composed of identical words, priority for citation is given to that radical which contains the lowest-numbered locant at the first cited point of difference in the radical. If two or more side chains are in equivalent positions, the one to be assigned the lowest-numbered locant is that cited first in the name. The complete expression for the side chain may be enclosed in parentheses for clarity or the carbon atoms in side chains may be indicated by primed locants. 

Since the Flory-Huggins theory provides us with an analytical expression for AG , in Eq. (8.44), it is not difficult to carry out the differentiations indicated above to consider the critical point for miscibility in terms of the Flory-Huggins model. While not difficult, the mathematical manipulations do take up too much space to include them in detail. Accordingly, we indicate only some intermediate points in the derivation. We begin by recalling that (bAGj Ibn ) j -A/ii, so by differentiating Eq. (8.44) with respect to either Ni or N2, we obtain... 

Although Eq. (10.50) is still plagued by remnants of the Taylor series expansion about the equilibrium point in the form of the factor (dn/dc2)o, we are now in a position to evaluate the latter quantity explicitly. Equation (8.87) gives an expression for the equilibrium osmotic pressure as a function of concentration n = RT(c2/M + Bc2 + ) Therefore... 

If classical Coulombic interactions are assumed among point charges for electrostatic interactions between solute and solvent, and the term for the Cl coefficients (C) is omitted, the solvated Eock operator is reduced to Eq. (6). The significance of this definition of the Eock operator from a variational principle is that it enables us to express the analytical first derivative of the free energy with respect to the nuclear coordinate of the solute molecule R ,... 

In fig. 26 the Arrhenius plot ln[k(r)/coo] versus TojT = Pl2n is shown for V /(Oo = 3, co = 0.1, C = 0.0357. The disconnected points are the data from Hontscha et al. [1990]. The solid line was obtained with the two-dimensional instanton method. One sees that the agreement between the instanton result and the exact quantal calculations is perfect. The low-temperature limit found with the use of the periodic-orbit theory expression for kio (dashed line) also excellently agrees with the exact result. Figure 27 presents the dependence ln(/Cc/( o) on the coupling strength defined as C fQ. The dashed line corresponds to the exact result from Hontscha et al. [1990], and the disconnected points are obtained with the instanton method. For most practical purposes the instanton results may be considered exact.
