<p class="Abstract">3D-printer materials are becoming increasingly appealing, especially for high frequency applications. As such, the electromagnetic characterisation of these materials is an important step in evaluating their applicability for new technological devices. We present a measurement method for complex permittivity evaluation based on a dielectric loaded resonator (DR). Comparing the quality factor <em>Q</em> of the DR with a disk-shaped sample placed on a DR base, with <em>Q</em> obtained when the sample is substituted with an air gap, allows a reliable determination of the loss tangent.</p>


The ordinary spectrograpbic method of estimating a substance from its absorption spectrum when photographed under standard conditions has the merit of providing permanent records, but suffers from necessitating the use of an expensive instrument as well as being laborious and as a rule very slow. A method will now be described by means of which nitrogen peroxide, a substance often determined spectrographically, may be estimated in concentrations of 1 : 100,000 and upwards with high accuracy and in a few seconds when once a simple calibration has been made. The method utilises the fact that the spectral region in the visible whereover nitrogen peroxide absorbs most strongly, is close to that at which a potassium photoelectric cell is most sensitive and where it can be used to record, with high accuracy, the light transmitted by the gas under consideration (fig. 1). The optical basis of the method may first briefly be discussed. If a beam of monochromatic light be passed through a column of absorbent medium, the Beer-Lambert law gives log 10 (I 0 /I) = ε . c . d , (1) where I 0 = intensity of light transmitted at zero absorption, I = intensity of light transmitted at measured absorption, ε = the molecular extinction coefficient, which is a constant for the absorbent medium at any given wave-length of the light concerned, c = concentration of absorbent medium, d = length of absorbent column in the direction of the path of the light. Since for a vacuum photocell with an applied voltage in excess of the saturation value ( i.e ., ca . 40 volts), the photoelectric current varies directly, over a wide range, as the intensity of the light incident upon the cell, we may re-write equation (1) as log i = log i 0 — ε . c . d , (2) where i 0 = photoelectric current corresponding to I 0 , and i = photoelectric current corresponding to I.

AbstractWe derive improved versions of the relations between supermassive black hole mass MBH and host-galaxy bulge velocity dispersion σ and luminosity L (the MBH–σ and MBH–Lbulge relations), based on ~ 50 MBH measurements and ~ 20 upper limits. Particular attention is paid to recovery of the intrinsic scatter (ϵ0) in both relations. We find the scatter to be significantly larger than estimated in most previous studies. The large scatter requires revision of the local black hole mass function, and it implies that there may be substantial selection bias in studies of the evolution of the MBH–σ and MBH–Lbulge relations. When only considering ellipticals, the scatter decreases. These results appear to be insensitive to a wide range of assumptions about the measurement errors and the distribution of intrinsic scatter. We also investigate the effects on the fits of culling the sample according to the resolution of the black hole's sphere of influence.

This study is motivated the identification of policies issued by the regional Governmentof Rokan Hulu in the form of Regulatory region number 1 by 2015 on the determination of thevillage and Indigenous Village. Political dynamics based on various interests against themanufacture of, and decision-making in the process of formation of the corresponding localregulations determination of Indigenous Villages in the Rokan Hulu is impacted to a verysignificantamount of changes from the initial draft of the number i.e. 21 (twenty one) the villagebecame Customary 89 (eighty-nine) the Indigenous Villages who have passed. Type of thisresearch is a qualitative descriptive data analysis techniques. The research aims to describe theState of the real situation in a systematic and accurate fact analysis unit or related research, aswell as observations of the field based on the data (information). Method of data collectionwas done with interviews, documentation, and observations through fieldwork (field research).The results of the research on the process of discussion of the draft local regulations andmutual agreement about Designation of Indigenous Villages in the Rokan Hulu is, showed thatthe political dynamics that occur due to the presence of various political interests, rejectionorally by Villagers who were judged to have met the requirements of Draft Regulations to beformulated and the area for the set to be Indigenous Villages, and also there is a desire fromsome villages in the yet to Draft local regulations in order to set the Indigenous village , there isa wide range of interests of these aspects influenced the agreement to assign the entire localVillage which is in the Rokan Hulu become Indigenous village, and the village of Transmigrationinto administrative Villages where the initiator of the changes in the number of IndigenousVillages in the Rokan Hulu it is the desire of the local Government of its own.

We show that the degree of oxidation of graphene oxide (GO) can be obtained by using a combination of state-of-the-art ab initio computational modeling and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy (XPS). We show that the shift of the XPS C1s peak relative to pristine graphene, ΔEC1s, can be described with high accuracy by ΔEC1s=A(cO−cl)2+E0, where c0 is the oxygen concentration, A=52.3 eV, cl=0.122, and E0=1.22 eV. Our results demonstrate a precise determination of the oxygen content of GO samples.
