X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy of trifluoromethylbenzenes and chlorofluoromethanes

Creator:: Holmes, Steven Allen
Abstract:: The core-electron ionization potentials for mono- and di(trifluoromethyl)benzene, for chlorofluoromethanes and for chlorine have been measured in order to give information on the electron distribution in these molecules and to investigate differences between the inductive effect of fluorine and that of CF3. For trifluoromethylbenzene the measured ionization potentials in eV...

Some ovarian characteristics of the postpartum rabbit

Creator:: Gjesvold, James Allen
Abstract:: The effects of suckling on several ovarian characteristics were studied in postpartum rabbits. Ovarian weight was found to be significantly greater in rabbits suckled for twelve days than in nonsuckled rabbits autopsied at a similar interval postpartum or in a third group autopsied at parturition. There were no significant differences...

Chronopotentiometry of Sm(II) and Pm(III) in molten LiCl-KCl eutectic

Creator:: Nixon, Richard Allen
Abstract:: Samarium (III) and promethium (III) were studied by chronopotentiometry in a molten LiCl-KC1 eutectic. Tungsten electrodes were used to avoid alloying effects encountered with platinum electrodes. Adsorption phenomena were observed which prevented the study of any kinetic effects. The quarter wave potentials were measured as: Sm(III) = 0.95 ± 0.05...

Buddhist Theories of Karma and the Effect of Prosocial Behavior on Perceptions of Others

Creator:: Allen, Pamela M.
Abstract:: Psychological theory of social cognition and Buddhist philosophy of cognition suggest that people's actions should determine their impressions of future events. In psychology, several studies have shown that behavior can activate constructs and thereby influence one's perception. However, they do not address prosocial behavior, a specific concern of Buddhist philosophy...
