<p>The acid-base properties of some <em>p</em>-substituted aromatic hydrazones were examined in aqueous perchloric acid medim by spectrophotometric methods. The possible site where the proton may take place and the stability of the protonated form was discussed using the values of the total energy, binding energy, heat of formation and proton affinity calculated according to the semiempirical methods AM1 and PM3. Furthermore, the stability of the protonated forms, as well as, the stability of the isomers (<em>E</em> and <em>Z</em>) was discussed. Electronic absorption studies were utilized for determination of the dissociation constants of the protonated form (p<em>K</em><sub>BH</sub><sup>+</sup>), numerically and graphically, at different ionic strength (0.1, 0.25 and 0.5 mol/dm<sup>3</sup>), as well as, thermodynamic dissociation constants.  The influence of the solvent on the appearance of the recorded spectra was compensated by the use of the method of characteristic vector analysis (CVA).</p><p> </p>

Every process and stage in phase of constructing of Indonesia’s vernacular architecture is required the role and contribution of individual or several actors so that procession of house construction can be built due to purposes. According to traditions and beliefs of the Bugis community, there are several actors who have different roles and responsibilities during the process of establishing a Buginese-house. This research aims to explore the influence of the actors’ role who are involved in the process of constructing a traditional Bugis house. Correlation and impact of one actor's involvement with other actors will be reviewed based on the perspective of the Actor Network Theory (ANT) by using descriptive qualitative method.  The results revealed that there are 4 stages in the process of building Buginese-house namely the process of constructing a house frame (Mattibang Bola), the process of marking the center of the house (possi bola), the ritual of reading thanksgiving prayer (barzanji), and the process of establishing a house frame (Mappatettong Bola). Founded, Sanro Bola and Panre Bola, namely traditional leaders who have a mandate in the tradition of building houses, are actors who act as controlling actors and are very influential in maintaining the stability of a network in the process of building Buginese-house. Learning from the tradition of building a Buginese-house, the existence of traditional leaders is important, because it has a tradition-based on knowledge base, and this has become a mandate in regulating other actors in working.

Conti: One of the main conclusions of the Wolf-Rayet symposium in Buenos Aires was that Wolf-Rayet stars are evolutionary products of massive objects. Some questions:–Do hot helium-rich stars, that are not Wolf-Rayet stars, exist?–What about the stability of helium rich stars of large mass? We know a helium rich star of ∼40 MO. Has the stability something to do with the wind?–Ring nebulae and bubbles : this seems to be a much more common phenomenon than we thought of some years age.–What is the origin of the subtypes? This is important to find a possible matching of scenarios to subtypes.

AbstractBy using the stability condition and general formulas developed by Fukushima (1998 = Paper I) we discovered that, just as in the case of the explicit symmetric multistep methods (Quinlan and Tremaine, 1990), when integrating orbital motions of celestial bodies, the implicit symmetric multistep methods used in the predictor-corrector manner lead to integration errors in position which grow linearly with the integration time if the stepsizes adopted are sufficiently small and if the number of corrections is sufficiently large, say two or three. We confirmed also that the symmetric methods (explicit or implicit) would produce the stepsize-dependent instabilities/resonances, which was discovered by A. Toomre in 1991 and confirmed by G.D. Quinlan for some high order explicit methods. Although the implicit methods require twice or more computational time for the same stepsize than the explicit symmetric ones do, they seem to be preferable since they reduce these undesirable features significantly.

The method demonstrated is an adaptation of a proven procedure for accurately determining the magnification of light photomicrographs. Because of the stability of modern electrical lenses, the method is shown to be directly applicable for providing precise reproducibility of magnification in various models of electron microscopes.A readily recognizable area of a carbon replica of a crossed-line diffraction grating is used as a standard. The same area of the standard was photographed in Phillips EM 200, Hitachi HU-11B2, and RCA EMU 3F electron microscopes at taps representative of the range of magnification of each. Negatives from one microscope were selected as guides and printed at convenient magnifications; then negatives from each of the other microscopes were projected to register with these prints. By deferring measurement to the print rather than comparing negatives, correspondence of magnification of the specimen in the three microscopes could be brought to within 2%.

The strengthening effect at high temperature produced by a dispersed oxide phase in a metal matrix is seemingly dependent on at least two major contributors: oxide particle size and spatial distribution, and stability of the worked microstructure. These two are strongly interrelated. The stability of the microstructure is produced by polygonization of the worked structure forming low angle cell boundaries which become anchored by the dispersed oxide particles. The effect of the particles on strength is therefore twofold, in that they stabilize the worked microstructure and also hinder dislocation motion during loading.

It is well known that the resolution of bio-molecules in a high resolution electron microscope depends not just on the physical resolving power of the instrument, but also on the stability of these molecules under the electron beam. Experimentally, the damage to the bio-molecules is commo ly monitored by the decrease in the intensity of the diffraction pattern, or more quantitatively by the decrease in the peaks of an energy loss spectrum. In the latter case the exposure, EC, to decrease the peak intensity from IO to I’O can be related to the molecular dissociation cross-section, σD, by EC = ℓn(IO /I’O) /ℓD. Qu ntitative data on damage cross-sections are just being reported, However, the microscopist needs to know the explicit dependence of damage on: (1) the molecular properties, (2) the density and characteristics of the molecular film and that of the support film, if any, (3) the temperature of the molecular film and (4) certain characteristics of the electron microscope used

Milk is an unusually stable colloidal system; the stability of this system is due primarily to the formation of micelles by the major milk proteins, the caseins. Numerous models for the structure of casein micelles have been proposed; these models have been formulated on the basis of in vitro studies. Synthetic casein micelles (i.e., those formed by mixing the purified αsl- and k-caseins with Ca2+ in appropriate ratios) are dissimilar to those from freshly-drawn milks in (i) size distribution, (ii) ratio of Ca/P, and (iii) solvation (g. water/g. protein). Evidently, in vivo organization of the caseins into the micellar form occurs in-a manner which is not identical to the in vitro mode of formation.
