Improved empirical force field for multicomponent oxide glasses and crystals
In this paper, the self-consistent PMMCS force fields (FFs) [Pedone et al., J. Phys. Chem. B 110, 11780 (2006)10.1021/jp0611018] widely used for the simulation of a large variety of silicates, aluminosilicate and phosphate crystals, and multicomponent oxide glasses have been revised and improved by the inclusion of two types of three-body interactions acting between T-O-T bridges (T=Si and P) and network former-network former repulsive interactions. The FFs named Bertani-Menziani-Pedone (BMP)-harm and BMP-shrm better reproduce the T-O-T bond angle distributions (BADs) and network former-oxygen distances. Consequently, the prediction of Qn distributions (Q stands for quaternary species, and n is the number of bridging oxygens around it), neutron total distribution functions, solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of spin active nuclei (Si29, O17, P31, Al27), and the density have also been hugely improved with respect to the previous version of our FF. These results also highlight the strong correlation between the T-O-T BADs and the other short and intermediate structural properties in oxide glasses, which have been largely neglected in the past. In addition to the improvement of the structure, the FF has been revealed to reproduce well the ionic conductivity in mixed alkali aluminosilicate glasses and the elastic properties. The systematic comparison with other interatomic potential models, including the polarizable core-shell model, carried out in this paper showed that our potential model is more balanced and effective for simulating a vast family of crystalline and amorphous oxide-based systems

They can be distinguished from those of <i>L. klugi</i> (part) and <i>L. sertaneja</i> <b>n. sp.</b> (part) by having the distal maxilla covered with several spiniform setae on most of its upper, median and lower areas, whereas in these two species normally, there are only a few spiniform setae on the median and lower areas. From <i>L. subcanens,</i> they differ by the retrolateral distal maxilla covered with several well developed spiniform setae (Figs 209 ─210) and by lacking the abundant whitish setae covering most of the carapace, dorsal chelicerae and legs that <i>L. subcanens</i> have (Figs 219 -222).</p> <p> <b>Etymology.</b> The specific epithet refers to the type locality, the Camurujipe farm, a RPPN (Private Natural Heritage Reserve), in the Municipality of Mata de São João, State of Bahia, Brazil, where the types were collected.</p> <p> <b>Type material.</b> Holotype male (MZUSP 78870) and paratype female (MZUSP 78871) from Brazil, state of Bahia, Mata de São João, RPPN Camurujipe, Malhadas [12°31 S, 38°02’W], R.

PROTONATION EQUILIBRIUM OF MESITYLENE IN TRIFLUOROMETHANESULFONIC ACID
The protonation equilibrium of mesitylene in concentrated aqueous solutions of trifluoromethane-sulfonic acid has been studied by UV spectroscopy and the corresponding pK(a) value determined using the Mc procedure. The basicity of toluene and benzene in aqueous acid solutions has also been estimated by comparing detritiation rates and dissociation constants of substituted benzenes, which in analogous media exhibit C-protonation
