Bettelheim draws on his experience in concentration camps to illuminate the dangers inherent in all mass societies in this profound and moving masterpiece. 

In Europe and elsewhere in the world, the trend towards reformulated gasoline has scarcely begun it is very likely, however, that it will be felt around the beginning of 2000, with more or less profound impact on the refining industry. 

First of all, one should note that refining a low cost raw material into low or medium added value products requires extremely delicate optimization. It is out of the question to give them much more than the specifications require thus highlighting the importance of being able to predict the various product yields and qualities that a given crude oil can supply. A profound understanding of crude oils appears therefore indispensable. That is the role of crude oil analysis, an operation traced in part to refining, with the... 

In this case, no profound specialised knowledge is required for determination of the type of discontinuities. On the other hand, determination of the nature of damage using a regular flaw detector for manual UT, can be a complicated task for any flaw detection experts, in any case, its solution will require time and qualification of the operator, but. the presence of these conditions will not eliminate the subjective nature of the assessment. 

The impact of this on many inspection companies was profound. Rather than what had traditionally been the practice of simply collecting data in a time - honoured manner and... 

The presence of surface conductance behind the slip plane alters the relationships between the various electrokinetic phenomena [83, 84] further complications arise in solvent mixtures [85]. Surface conductance can have a profound effect on the streaming current and electrophoretic mobility of polymer latices [86, 87]. In order to obtain an accurate interpretation of the electrostatic properties of a suspension, one must perform more than one type of electrokinetic experiment. One novel approach is to measure electrophoretic mobility and dielectric spectroscopy in a single instrument [88]. 

Electrons, protons and neutrons and all other particles that have s = are known as fennions. Other particles are restricted to s = 0 or 1 and are known as bosons. There are thus profound differences in the quantum-mechanical properties of fennions and bosons, which have important implications in fields ranging from statistical mechanics to spectroscopic selection mles. It can be shown that the spin quantum number S associated with an even number of fennions must be integral, while that for an odd number of them must be half-integral. The resulting composite particles behave collectively like bosons and fennions, respectively, so the wavefunction synnnetry properties associated with bosons can be relevant in chemical physics. One prominent example is the treatment of nuclei, which are typically considered as composite particles rather than interacting protons and neutrons. Nuclei with even atomic number tlierefore behave like individual bosons and those with odd atomic number as fennions, a distinction that plays an important role in rotational spectroscopy of polyatomic molecules. 

However, there is a much more profound prior issue concerning anliannonic nonnal modes. The existence of the nonnal vibrational modes, involving the collective motion of all the atoms in the molecule as illustrated for H2O in figure A1.2.4 was predicated on the basis of the existence of a hannonic potential. But if the potential is not exactly hannonic, as is the case everywhere except right at the equilibrium configuration, are there still collective nonnal modes And if so, since they caimot be hannonic, what is their nature and their relation to the hannonic modes ... 

Semiconductors are poor conductors of electricity at low temperatures. Since the valence band is completely occupied, an applied electric field caimot change the total momentum of the valence electrons. This is a reflection of the Pauli principle. This would not be true for an electron that is excited into the conduction band. However, for a band gap of 1 eV or more, few electrons can be themially excited into the conduction band at ambient temperatures. Conversely, the electronic properties of semiconductors at ambient temperatures can be profoundly altered by the... 

The perturbation theory described in section Al.5.2,1 fails completely at short range. One reason for the failure is that the multipole expansion breaks down, but this is not a fiindamental limitation because it is feasible to construct a non-expanded , long-range, perturbation theory which does not use the multipole expansion [6], A more profound reason for the failure is that the polarization approximation of zero overlap is no longer valid at short range. 

At its foundation level, statistical mechanics mvolves some profound and difficult questions which are not fiilly understood, even for systems in equilibrium. At the level of its applications, however, the rules of calculation tliat have been developed over more than a century have been very successfLil. 

Above approximately 80 km, the prominent bulge in electron concentration is called the ionosphere. In this region ions are created from UV photoionization of the major constituents—O, NO, N2 and O2. The ionosphere has a profound effect on radio conmumications since electrons reflect radio waves with the same frequency as the plasma frequency, f = 8.98 x where 11 is the electron density in [147]. The...

More important, tire surface curvature of tire carbon network exerts a profound impact on tire reactivity of tire fullerene core [6, 7]. In tliis context, tire most striking consequence emerges from tire pyramidalization of tire individual carbon atoms. Influenced by tire curvature, tire sp hybrids which exist in tmly two-dimensional planar... 

Rings have a profound influence on many properties of a molecule small rings introduce. strain into a molecule, aromatic rings dramatically change its physical and chemical properties, rings present particular problems in syntheses, etc. Thus, a knowledge of the I ings contained in a molecule is important in many applications in chemoinformatics. 

Further prerequisites depend on the chemical problem to be solved. Some chemical effects have an undesired influence on the structure descriptor if the experimental data to be processed do not account for them. A typical example is the conformational flexibility of a molecule, which has a profound influence on a 3D descriptor based on Cartesian coordinates. In particular, for the application of structure descriptors with structure-spectrum correlation problems in...

Despite these similarities between the G2 calculations of Dg for H2 and Hj, there is a profound difference that is only hinted at in the single-point energies in Table 10-1. In the first group of results we see that all the calculations, with the exception of the last one, give the same answer. In the lower block of results, for H2, this is not the case. Some results are duplicated and some are not. The results are more mixed. 

In addition to inorganic radicals, which profoundly modify the properties of a paraflSn hydrocarbon residue, there is a whole series of organic groupings which are distinguished by exceptional reactivity, for example, the ethylene and acetylene groupings, and the phenyl and naphthyl radicals. Thus the characterisation of unsaturated hydrocarbons and their derivatives, e.g., the aromatic compounds, becomes possible. 

The ideas of Frank, Evans and Kauzmann had a profound influence on the way chemists thought about hydrophobic effects in the decades that followed However, after the study of the hydrophobic hydration shell through computer simulations became feasible, the ideas about the hydrophobic hydration gradually changed. It became apparent that the hydrogen bonds in the hydrophobic hydration shell are nof or only to a minor extent, stronger than in normal water which is not compatible with an iceberg character of the hydration shell.

Molecules with icosahedral symmetry are not new but the discovery of the newest of them, Ceo or buckminsterfiillerene, has had such a profound effect on chemistry in recent years that 1 thought it useful fo include a discussion of fhe icosahedral poinf group fo which Ceo belongs.
