Dedekind Finiteness In Topoi, Lawrence Stout Dec 1986

Dedekind Finiteness In Topoi, Lawrence Stout

Lawrence N. Stout

A Dedekind finite object in a topos is an object such that any monic endomorphism is an epimorphism. This paper proves the basic properties of Dedekind finiteness and then gives examples which show that the class of Dedekind finite objects is not closed under quotients, subobjects, exponentiation, or finite powerobjects. Examples also show that having no nontrivial epic endomorphisms is distinct from Dedekind finiteness.

Theoretical Studies Of The Reactions Xhn → Xhn-1- + H+ And Xhn-1- + Sih4 → [Sih4xhn-1]-, Mark S. Gordon, Larry P. Davis, Larry W. Burggraf, Robert Damrauer

Mark S. Gordon

Ab initio and MNDO calculations have been carried out to evaluate the gas-phase acidities of closed-shell XHn compounds (X= C, N, 0, F, Si, P, S, Cl) and the affinities of silane for the XHn_1- anions. Fourth-order perturbation theory with extended basis sets reproduces the experimental gas-phase acidities to within 2 kcaljmol. Stable pentacoordinated silicon anions are found for X = H, C, N, 0, and F. In contrast, only marginally stable charge-dipole complexes are found for X = Si, S, and Cl.


On The Glass Transition And Viscosity Of Phosphorus Pentoxide, C. A. Angell, Steve W. Martin Dec 1986

On The Glass Transition And Viscosity Of Phosphorus Pentoxide, C. A. Angell, Steve W. Martin

Steve W. Martin

The calorimetric glass transition temperature Tg for pure anhydrous P2Os melted in sealed Si02 ampules at 1000 “C has been obtained directly for the first time with differential scanning calorimetry, and the increase in heat capacity at Tg has been determined. Tg measured in this way is 57 K higher than the value quoted in the literature, which is probably based on an Arrhenius law extrapolation of viscosity data to 9 = lOI3 P. Combining the high-temperature viscosity data with the common observation that, for oxide glasses, 7 = 10l2 P at the DSC Tg, we find that the P,O, …


Auroral E-Region Plasma Waves Andelevated Electron Temperatures, Bela G. Fejer, J. Providakes, D. T. Farley, W. E. Swartz Dec 1986

Auroral E-Region Plasma Waves Andelevated Electron Temperatures, Bela G. Fejer, J. Providakes, D. T. Farley, W. E. Swartz

Bela G. Fejer

We have observed 3-m auroral E region plasma waves with a high-resolution 50-MHz radar interferometer at Ithaca. During postmidnight periods of very strong magnetic activity at Ottawa (L = 3.5), the backscattered power and Doppler spectra vary rapidly with time and range and may have both mean Doppler shifts and half power widths in excess of 200 Hz (600 m/s). In addition, when the radar and magnetometer data imply that the current is approximately parallel to the radar line of sight, sharp spectral peaks corresponding to phase velocities approaching 1 km/s sometimes appear suddenly. These persist for at most several …

Weak Decays Of The H-Dibaryon, Jf Donoghue, E Golowich, Br Holstein Nov 1986

Weak Decays Of The H-Dibaryon, Jf Donoghue, E Golowich, Br Holstein

Barry R Holstein

We calculate decay rates and branching fractions for the postulated S=-2 H dibaryon, both for the expected ΔS=1 channels (nΛ,nΣ0,pΣ-) and for the possible ΔS=2 mode (nn). For ΔS=1 decays we find the S waves are dominated by ΔI=(3/2) transitions due to the Pauli principle, which forces the six-quark final state to be in a SU(3) 27-plet. If observed, this would be the first breakdown of the ΔI=1/2 rule. The lifetime is long, of order 10-8 sec, which should be considered in planning experiments. In the ΔS=2 case, we add a consideration of dispersive effects to our previous calculation of …


The Minimum Size Of The Aids Epidemic In The United States, Ron Brookmeyer, Mitchell Gail Nov 1986

The Minimum Size Of The Aids Epidemic In The United States, Ron Brookmeyer, Mitchell Gail

Ron Brookmeyer

A new method based on the reported incubation period of transfusion-associated AIDS was used to estimate the number of AIDS cases likely to arise in the USA among those infected before 1986. Between 1986 and 1991 102 000 new cases are projected, with a total cumulative incidence of 135 000 AIDS cases. These estimates do not account for new infections after 1985 nor very long incubation periods and are thus the smallest numbers to be expected. Even if new infections can be effectively prevented, the epidemic will be five times larger than the number of cases observed so far.

Scaling All Correlation Energy In Perturbation Theory Calculations Of Bond Energies And Barrier Heights, Mark S. Gordon, Donald G. Truhlar Sep 1986

Scaling All Correlation Energy In Perturbation Theory Calculations Of Bond Energies And Barrier Heights, Mark S. Gordon, Donald G. Truhlar

Mark S. Gordon

We present and test a new method for scaling all correlation energy as estimated by M0ller-Plesset many-body perturbation theory with popular basis sets. Scale factors that may be useful for future applications are estimated from known bond dissociation energies. We also use scale factors to estimate the barrier heights for two hydrogen-transfer reactions, CH3 + H2 = CH4 + H and OH + CH4 = H20 + CH3•

Gravitational Coupling At Finite Temperature, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein, Rw Robinett Aug 1986

Gravitational Coupling At Finite Temperature, Jf Donoghue, Br Holstein, Rw Robinett

Barry R Holstein

We discuss a thermodynamic identity which helps explain why ≠ at finite temperature. In addition we complete the discussion of the gravitational force by including the gravitational variation of the temperature. Gradients in the temperature induce extra forces not accounted for by the usual coupling to the energy-momentum tensor.

Rigid Backbone: A New Geometry For Percolation, Anthony Roy Day, R. R. Tremblay, A.-M. S. Tremblay Jun 1986

Rigid Backbone: A New Geometry For Percolation, Anthony Roy Day, R. R. Tremblay, A.-M. S. Tremblay

Anthony Roy Day

It is shown that the diluted two-dimensional central-force problem belongs to a new class of percolation problems. Geometric properties such as the fractal dimension of the backbone, the correlation-length exponent, and the connectivity are completely different from those of previously studied percolation problems. Explicit calculations of the backbone and the construction of an algorithm which identifies the infinite rigid cluster clearly demonstrate the absence of singly connected bonds, the overwhelming importance of loops, and the long-range nature of the rigidity.
