An extraordinary deviceless self-sustained oscillatory diffusive burning is observed in tert-butyl peroxybenzoate (TBPB) (technical pure) and hybrid fuel, i.e., TBPB and kerosene (both 50%) flames when burned in form of pool fires. Such oscillations or more precisely self-sustained deviceless control of mass burning (flow) is not reported till date. Generally, devices comprising electronic control system and/or mechanical means (valves) are necessary to produce such oscillatory burning or control of fuel flow. This unique oscillation is strongly recorded for pool diameters of 6 cm ≤ d ≤ 11 cm beyond which the effect was weakened and unseen (hid) visually. The fuel regression (loss) takes place in irregular time steps and is formulated in form of a step function. The variation in fuel mass burning rates, visible flame lengths and radiation heat fluxes with time are measured as respective representatives of oscillations. The periodicity in the strongest oscillations in relative visible flame lengths is investigated and the measured data are found to be best fitted in sinusoidal form. Both, chemical and thermal effects are shown to be possibly responsible for such effects. Furthermore, a theory is offered to characterise similar effect showing fuels.
We demonstrate a strategy for simulating wide-range X-ray scattering patterns, which spans the small- and wide scattering angles as well as the scattering angles typically used for Pair Distribution Function (PDF) analysis. Such simulated patterns can be used to test holistic analysis models, and, since the diffraction intensity is on the same scale as the scattering intensity, may offer a novel pathway for determining the degree of crystallinity.
The "Ultima Ratio" strategy is demonstrated on a 64-nm Metal Organic Framework (MOF) particle, calculated from Q < 0.01 1/nm up to Q < 150 1/nm, with a resolution of 0.16 Angstrom. The computations exploit a modified 3D Fast Fourier Transform (3D-FFT), whose modifications enable the transformations of matrices at least up to 8000^3 voxels in size. Multiple of these modified 3D-FFTs are combined to improve the low-Q behaviour. The resulting curve is compared to a wide-range scattering pattern measured on a polydisperse MOF powder. While computationally intensive, the approach is expected to be useful for simulating scattering from a wide range of realistic, complex structures, from (poly-)crystalline particles to hierarchical, multicomponent structures such as viruses and catalysts.
Termite gut flagellates are colonized by host-specific lineages of ectosymbiotic and endosymbiotic bacteria. Previous studies have shown that flagellates of the genus Trichonympha may harbour more than one type of symbiont. Using a comprehensive approach that combined cloning of SSU rRNA genes with fluorescence in situ hybridization and electron microscopy, we investigated the phylogeny and subcellular locations of the symbionts in a variety of Trichonympha species from different termites. The flagellates in Trichonympha Cluster I were the only species associated with 'Endomicrobia', which were located in the posterior part of the cell, confirming previous results. Trichonympha species of Cluster II from the termite genus Incisitermes (family Kalotermitidae) lacked 'Endomicrobia' and were associated with endosymbiotic Actinobacteria, which is highly unusual. The endosymbionts, for which we suggest the name 'Candidatus Ancillula trichonymphae', represent a novel, deep-branching lineage in the Micrococcineae that consists exclusively of clones from termite guts. They preferentially colonized the anterior part of the flagellate host and were highly abundant in all species of Trichonympha Cluster II except Trichonympha globulosa. Here, they were outnumbered by a Desulfovibrio species associated with the cytoplasmic lamellae at the anterior cell pole. Such symbionts are present in both Trichonympha clusters, but not in all species. Unlike the intracellular location reported for the Desulfovibrio symbionts of Trichonympha agilis (Cluster I), the Desulfovibrio symbionts of T. globulosa (Cluster II) were situated in deep invaginations of the plasma membrane that were clearly connected to the exterior of the host cell.
α(1 0 0) Dislocations are observed in nickel-base superalloys after creep deformation at high temperatures and low stresses. They are formed in the γ/γ´ interfaces by a three step mechanism. First, primary dislocations with Burgers vector α/2(1 0 1) and 60° character are left behind in the interfaces when dislocation loops glide through the γ channels. The 60° dislocations move into edge orientation and react forming secondary dislocations α/2(1 1 0). In the third step, new primary dislocations are knit into the already existing meshes of primary and secondary dislocations, which results in hexagonal misfit dislocation networks consisting of secondary dislocations α/2(1 1 0) and tertiary dislocations α(1 0 0), both of edge type. This self-organisation process is explained by dislocation theory and crystallography.
Creep deformation accelerates when the α(1 0 0) interfacial dislocations enter the γ´ phase. During their climb towards the opposite interface, they attain a characteristic rectangular shape. This shape and the importance of the α(1 0 0) super dislocations for creep deformation are discussed.
The title compound (AHTN-OH), C17H26O, was prepared in order to provide standard materials for the qualitative and quantitative analysis of environmental pollutants. The molecule possesses a chiral C atom, although the structure determination was performed on racemic material, expressed in the structure as disordered chiral sites. The asymmetric unit consists of four AHTN-OH molecules containing an hydroxy group and forming a tetrameric cyclic motif built up by four strong hydrogen bonds between these hydroxy groups and additionally by two weak C–H···π interactions. Furthermore, these tetramers are linked via very weak C–H···π interactions, forming chains along the c axis.
The title compound, also known as cis-zearalenone (cis-ZEN), C18H22O5, has already been reported elsewhere [Griffin et al. (1981). ACA Ser. 29, 35], but no atomic coordinates are publicly available. The molecule is of interest with respect to its toxicity. In the crystal, intramolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds stabilize the molecular conformation, while intermolecular O—H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules to form infinite chains along the [110] and [1¯10] directions. The absolute configuration has been assigned by reference to an unchanging chiral centre in the synthetic procedure.
The asymmetric unit of the title compound, C18H26O5, which is known as α-zearalanol, contains two molecules having the same conformation, with a r.m.s. deviation of less than 0.03 Å for all non-H atoms. In each independent molecule, an intramolecular O—H···O hydrogen bond stabilizes the molecular conformation. In the crystal, O—H···O hydrogen bonds link the molecules, forming infinite chains along [110] and [1¯10].
