    We report the synthesis, by solvothermal methods, of the tetradecametallic cluster complexes [M14(L)6O6(OMe)18-Cl6] (M ) FeIII, CrIII) and [V14(L)6O6(OMe)18Cl6-xOx] (L ) anion of 1,2,3-triazole or derivative). Crystal structuredata are reported for the {M14} complexes [Fe14(C2H2N3)6O6(OMe)18Cl6], [Cr14(bta)6O6(OMe)18Cl6] (btaH )benzotriazole), [V14O6(Me2bta)6(OMe)18Cl6-xOx] [Me2btaH ) 5,6-Me2-benzotriazole; eight metal sites are VIII, theremainder are disordered between {VIII-Cl}2+ and {VIVdO}2+] and for the distorted [FeIII14O9(OH)(OMe)8(bta)7-(MeOH)5(H2O)Cl8] structure that results from non-solvothermal synthetic methods, highlighting the importance oftemperature regime in cluster synthesis. Magnetic studies reveal the {Fe14} complexes to have ground state electronicspins of S e 25, among the highest known, while in contrast the {Cr14} complex has an S ) 0 ground statedespite having a very similar structure and all complexes being dominated by intramolecular antiferromagneticexchange interactions. The {Fe14} complexes undergo a magnetic phase transition to long-range ordering at relativelyhigh temperatures for molecular species, which are governed by the steric bulk of the triazole (TN ) 1.8 and 3.4K for L ) bta- and H2C2N3-, respectively). The huge spins of the {Fe14} complexes lead to very large magnetocaloriceffects (MCE)sthe largest known for any material below 10 Kswhich is further enhanced by spin frustration withinthe molecules due to the competing antiferromagnetic interactions. The largest MCE is found for [Fe14-(C2H2N3)6O6(OMe)18Cl6] with an isothermal magnetic entropy change -¢Sm of 20.3 J kg-1 K-1 at 6 K for anapplied magnetic field change of 0-7 T

    Differential Acquisition of m-Sequences using Recursive Soft Sequential Estimation

    No full text
    In this contribution a novel sequential estimation method is proposed for the acquisition of mm-sequences. This sequential estimation method exploits the principle of iterative soft-in-soft-out (SISO) decoding for enhancing the acquisition performance, and that of differential pre-processing for the sake of achieving an enhanced acquisition performance, when communicating over various communication environments. Hence the advocated acquisition arrangement is referred to as the Differential Recursive Soft Sequential Estimation (DRSSE) acquisition scheme. The DRSSE acquisition scheme exhibits a low complexity, which is similar to that of an mm-sequence generator, while achieving an acquisition time that is linearly dependent on the number of stages in the mm-sequence generator. A low acquisition time is achieved with the advent of the property that the proposed DRSSE scheme is capable of determining the real-time reliabilities associated with the decision concerning a set of, say SS, consecutive chips. This set of consecutive chips constitutes the sufficient initial condition for enabling the local mm-sequence generator to produce a synchronized local despreading mm-sequence replica. Owing to these attractive characteristics, the DRSSE acquisition scheme constitutes a promising initial synchronization scheme for acquisition of long mm-sequences, when communicating over various propagation environments

    ∑_(l+m=k,l,m≥0) ((α+l-1)¦l) ((β+m-1)¦m)=((α+β+k-1)¦k) and its application to negative binomial distribution

    We prove here the following equation: ∑_(l+m=k,l,m≥0) ((α+l-1)¦l) ((β+m-1)¦m)=((α+β+k-1)¦k) and give its application to prove the reproductive property of the negative binomial distribution. These finite sum equation involving binomial coefficients and proof of the reproductive property are not known as far as the author knows.論文(Article)departmental bulletin pape

    M. N. Srinivas, the well known sociologist is widely recognised as architect of modern Indian sociology and social anthropology. His publications have been analysed by year, domain, authorship pattern, channels of communication used. Keywords, etc. The results indicate that the papers published by him are of a nature that qualify him to be a 'role model' for the younger generations to emulate. By the end of 1995, Srinivas had to his credit 144 papers which, included 33 broad papers in sociology and anthropology; 18 papers in social change; 28 papers in village studies; 12 papers on religion; 17 papers on caste and 36 papers of general popular interest. The periods 1958-61 and 1974-77, when Srinivas was 38-41 and 58-61 years old. were his most productive periods with highest publication activity

    The stability of IQ in people with low intellectual ability: an analysis of the literature

    No full text
    A meta-analysis of the stability of low IQ (IQ 80) was performed on IQ tests that have been commonly used—tests that were derived by D. Wechsler (1949, 1955, 1974, 1981, 1991, 1997) and those based on the Binet scales (L. M. Terman, 1960; L. M. Terman & Merrill, 1972). Weighted- mean stability coefficients of .77 and .78 were found for Verbal IQ (V IQ) and Performance IQ (P IQ) on the Wechsler tests and .82 for Full-Scale IQ (FS IQ) on both Wechsler and Binet tests, for a mean test–retest interval of 2.8 years. Although the majority of FS IQs changed by less than 6 points, 14% changed by 10 points or more. The author suggests that the results of IQ assessment should be treated with more caution than previously thought

    Downlink Space–Time Spreading Using Interference Rejection Codes

    No full text
    In this paper, the authors will investigate the performance of a loosely synchronized (LS) code-based space–time spreading (STS) scheme in comparison to that of classic Walsh code and pseudonoise code-based STS when communicating over dispersive Nakagami-m multipath channels. Closed-form formulas are derived for characterizing the bit-error-rate performance as a function of the number of resolvable paths L and the number of users K. Our numerical results suggest that the employment of LS code-based STS scheme is beneficial in a low-user-load and low-dispersion channel scenario, where a near-single-user performance can be achieved without a multiuser detector. Index Terms—Code-division multiple access (CDMA), Gaussian approximation, interference-free window (IFW), large area synchronized (LAS) codes, loosely synchronized (LS) codes, Nakagami-m fading

    L-invariants for cohomological representations of PGL(2) over arbitrary number fields

    Gehrmann L, Pati MR. L-invariants for cohomological representations of PGL(2) over arbitrary number fields. Forum of Mathematics, Sigma. 2024;12: e71.**Abstract** Let π\pi be a cuspidal, cohomological automorphic representation of an inner form G of PGL2\operatorname {{PGL}}_2 over a number field F of arbitrary signature. Further, let p\mathfrak {p} be a prime of F such that G is split at p\mathfrak {p} and the local component πp\pi _{\mathfrak {p}} of π\pi at p\mathfrak {p} is the Steinberg representation. Assuming that the representation is noncritical at p\mathfrak {p} , we construct automorphic L\mathcal {L} -invariants for the representation π\pi . If the number field F is totally real, we show that these automorphic L\mathcal {L} -invariants agree with the Fontaine–Mazur L\mathcal {L} -invariant of the associated p -adic Galois representation. This generalizes a recent result of Spieß respectively Rosso and the first named author from the case of parallel weight 22 to arbitrary cohomological weights. </p
