We present a method for the construction of a one-adjustable-parameter empirical model for the induced dipole moment. The method is based on classical physics principles and relies on the first three spectral moments of the collision-induced absorption spectra at various temperatures and new interaction potentials. In this work it is applied to the spectra of He-Ar mixtures. Our values are in good agreement with the available ab initio data. The profiles calculated with these models at various temperatures are in excellent agreement with experiment.

Wave mechanical lineshapes of collision-induced absorption spectra are computed for binary mixtures of argon with helium, neon, and krypton using theoretical dipole moments as input. Comparison with measured spectra shows satisfactory agreement except for the neon–argon mixture, for which either theory or measurement is seen to be in substantial error. Empirical models of the collision-induced dipole moment which reproduce the experimental spectra more closely than the fundamental theory are also given. Best agreement between computed and experimental lineshapes is obtained when potential models which are accurate in the repulsive region are used.

Quantum mechanical lineshapes of collision-induced absorption (CIA) at different temperatures are computed for gaseous mixtures of molecular nitrogen and methane using theoretical values for the induced dipole moments and intermolecular potential as input. Comparison with theoretical absorption spectra shows satisfactory agreement. An empirical model of the dipole moment which reproduces the experimental spectra and the first three spectral moments more closely than the fundamental theory, is also presented. Good agreement between computed and experimental absorption lineshapes is obtained when a potential model which is constructed from the thermophysical and transport properties is used.

We show that, within the limits of the theory of intercollisional interference effects developed for collision-induced absorption by a Lorentz gas in paper I of this series, an intercollisional interference minimum which goes precisely to zero implies that the induced dipole moment is exactly proportional to the intermolecular force.

AbstractQuantum mechanical lineshapes of collision-induced absorption (CIA) at room temperature are computed for gaseous molecular oxygen using theoretical values for induced dipole moments and new isotropic interatomic potential as input. Comparison with measured spectra of the rototranslational collision-induced absorption shows good agreement over the full range of frequencies. Empirical models of the dipole moment which reproduce the experimental spectra and the first two spectral moments more closely than the fundamental theory are also given. The quality of the present potential has been checked by comparing between calculated and experimental thermo-physical and transport properties over a wide temperature range, which are found to be in good agreement.

The observed far-infrared collision-induced absorption of helium–argon mixtures is used to determine the parameters in an induced-dipole moment function of the form[Formula: see text]It is shown that, with this form of μ(r), the values of the constants μo, ρ, and c7 that are necessary to fit the first two moments of the observed absorption contour are in disagreement with the available theoretical values of these constants. Possible explanations for this disagreement are discussed in the paper. Finally, it is shown that if μ(r) were known, it is possible to obtain an excellent representation of the entire absorption spectrum from a knowledge of only the first three moments, which are easily calculated equilibrium quantities.

ABSTRACT Oestrogens administered in lower doses than necessary to induce full cornification of the mouse vagina induce mucification. It was shown previously that the degree of mucification could be estimated by quantitative determination of sialic acids. A suitable parameter for oestrogen assay was the measurement of vaginal sialic acid concentration which exhibited a clear cut dose response curve. Eleven assays of various oestrogens were performed with this method. Their estimated relative potencies were in good agreement with other routine oestrogen assays. A statistically sufficient degree of precision was found. The sensitivity was of the same order, or slightly higher, than the Allen-Doisy test.

The sorption of Hg (II), Cd (II), and As (III) by natural aluminosilicate is studied. It is shown that the mineral absorbs those toxicants in a rather wide pH range, quantitative extraction of analytes being achieved in a neutral or close to neutral medium (pH values range within 7.0 - 8.0; 6.3 - 7.5; 7.4 - 8.5 for Hg (II), As (III), and Cd (II), respectively). The effect of the time of phase contact on the degree of extraction of elements is shown. The sorption capacity of the mineral in optimal conditions of the medium acidity (0.06 mmol/g for mercury, 0.31 mmol/g for cadmium, and 0.52 mmol/g for arsenic) is determined. The distribution coefficients attain values of aboutnX 103-nX 104. A new combined method for determination of Hg (II), Cd (II), and As (III) in natural and waste water is developed and tested. The method consists in a preliminary group sorption concentration of the analytes by aluminosilicate, desorption of the analytes from the surface of the mineral and their subsequent atomic absorption determination. The correctness of the method is verified in analysis of spiked samples. The method is easy to use and exhibits high sensitivity, reproducibility and accuracy of analyte determination. The relative standard deviation does not exceed 0.13. Economic availability and possibility of using domestic sorption materials are the important advantages of the proposed procedure which can be used in the practice of laboratories monitoring the quality and safety of environmental objects.

The hydrodynamic characteristics of the planing hulls in particular at the planing regime are completely different from the conventional hull forms and the determination of these characteristics is more complicated. In the present study, calm water hydrodynamic characteristics of planing hulls are investigated using a hybrid method. The hybrid method combines the dynamic trim and sinkage from the Zarnick approach with the Savitsky method in order to calculate the total resistance of the planing hull. Since the obtained dynamic trim and sinkage values by using the original Zarnick approach are not in good agreement with experimental data, an improvement is applied to the hybrid method using a reduction function proposed by Garme. The numerical results obtained by the hybrid and improved hybrid method are compared with each other and available experimental data. The results indicate that the improved hybrid method gives better results compared to the hybrid method, especially for the dynamic trim and resistance. Although the results have some discrepancies with experimental data in terms of resistance, trim and sinkage, the improved hybrid method becomes appealing particularly for the preliminary design stage of the planing hulls.
