Suggestions for Further Study

Much more information is needed about the spectra of the diatomic molecules, especially the halides, and it is time to examine the spectra and magnetic properties of the double and heavier halides for comparison with the solid and liquid phases. 

A few specific studies we would like to see made are as follows

At various places in the text there are suggestions for further study to supplement a discussion or to address a question without a currently known answer. The CRUNCH program package developed by the author and his students is available on the Web for carrying out these studies. This program package was used for all of the examples in the book with the exception of those in Sections 2.2-2.6. 

The regenerator theory was mainly developed by H. Hausen [1.10]. As it includes a number of complicated calculations of processes that are time dependent no further study of the theory will be made here. The summary by H. Hausen [1.7] and the VDI-Warmeatlas [1.11] are suggested for further study on this topic. 

The book has been written for students beginning the study of carbohydrate chemistry who have some background in organic chemistry. It should also have appeal to those wanting a review of carbohydrate chemistry from either an elementary or an advanced level, and the many structures, literature citations, and suggestions for further study should serve as a helpful reference. 

In Section 2 the formalism of the Master equation, our main tool in the microscopic approach developed in this chapter, is laid down. This formalism, which constitutes a convenient intermediate between purely microscopic and macroscopic theories, accounts for microscopic dynamics through the fluctuations of the macrovariables. We review the main assumptions at the basis of this description, the formal properties of its solutions, and some results established in the early literature on this subject in connection with bifurcations leading to steady-state solutions. We subsequently focus on dynamical bifurcation phenomena and discuss, successively, thermodynamic fluctuations near Hopf bifurcation (Section 3) and in the regime of deterministic chaos (Section 4). A summary and suggestions for further study are given in the final Section 5. 

Utilization of other plastics in the mix proportion for non-load-bearing lightweight concrete according to ASTM Cl29 Type n standard and other standards are suggest for further studies. 

Three references are suggested for further study Scientific Foundations of Vacuum Technique by Dushman (1962) is a classic rigorous, well known, and... 

Subcommittee members selected those resources for further study whieh had titles suggesting that the resouree might contain equipment failure rate data. Copies of these resourees were then obtained and read. 

The concept of chemical periodicity is central to the study of inorganic chemistry. No other generalization rivals the periodic table of the elements in its ability to systematize and rationalize known chemical facts or to predict new ones and suggest fruitful areas for further study. Chemical periodicity and the periodic table now find their natural interpretation in the detailed electronic structure of the atom indeed, they played a major role at the turn of the century in elucidating the mysterious phenomena of radioactivity and the quantum effects which led ultimately to Bohr s theory of the hydrogen atom. Because of this central position it is perhaps not surprising that innumerable articles and books have been written on the subject since the seminal papers by Mendeleev in 1869, and some 700 forms of the periodic table (classified into 146 different types or subtypes) have been proposed. A brief historical survey of these developments is summarized in the Panel opposite. 

The latest tw o-phase flow research and design studies have broadened the interpretation of some of the earlier flow patterns and refined some design accuracy for selected situations. The method presented here serves as a fundamental reference source for further studies. It is suggested that the designer compare several design concept results and interpret which best encompasses the design problem under consideration. Some of the latest references are included in the Reference Section. No one reference has a solution to all two-phase flow problems. 

Lastly, Llerena etal. (2004) compared the CYP2C9 polymorphisms 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 in Mexican Americans (n = 98) and Spanish subjects (n = 102). Lower frequencies of the variant CYP2C9 2, one of two alleles reported to have altered catalytic activity, were found among the Mexican Americans. Since no phenotypic comparisons were conducted in this study, the clinical implications remain unclear. The authors suggest the need for further studies to assess whether the drug metabolism of medications such as warfarin maybe affected in this population. 

We have barely introduced the vast area of synthetic coordination chemistry. The methods described show that a wide variety of techniques have been employed, and they may be employed in combination in sequential steps to develop creative synthetic routes. The comprehensive compilations listed in the suggested readings should be consulted for further study. Several journals in inorganic chemistry are at least partially devoted to synthesis of materials, so the field is growing at a rapid rate. 

Anti-cancer properties of diflubenzuron require elucidation. The indication that one or more hydroxylated forms of diflubenzuron can regulate growth of mouse tumor cells provides a basis for further studies to identify and isolate the most active analog of this compound, and it suggests that other benzoylphenyl ureas may have similar properties (Jenkins et al. 1986). 

Section 5 provides some final observations about the uses of electronic structure calculations in the experimental studies of RIs and Section 6 gives suggestions for further reading, both about electronic structure theory and about its application to specific experimental studies of RIs. A brief description of each of the suggestions for further reading is provided. 

Recent studies of the kinetics and mechanism of n-butene isomerization over lanthanum oxide by Rosynek et al. (28) indicate that for this catalyst interconversion of the two 2-butene isomers (s4 in Example 8) is very slow and in that case the system could be described by mechanism m3. Studies by Goldwasser and Hall (29) indicate that as temperature is increased, there is appreciable direct conversion via s4 so that one or both of the other two direct mechanisms may be involved. These authors suggest that further studies with all three isomers, at several temperatures and with tracers, would be desirable.
