    The Slater case is the first case imposing liability on a surgeon for performing a procedure without consent. This book reviews what happened, what was presented in court, and why they are so different. It also reviews the context of consent principles and medical experimentation and law of the time. It also provides biographical notes on the persons related to the case. It also reviews how the Slater case has been used in medical, ethical, legal and other publications

    Unified treatment of complete orthonormal sets of nonrelativistic, quasirelativistic and relativistic sets of spinor wave functions, and Slater spinor orbitals in coordinate, momentum and four-dimensional spaces

    No full text
    Using the properties of tensor spherical harmonics introduced by the author in previous paper (Guseinov, Phys Lett A 372: 44, 2007) and complete orthonormal scalar basis sets of nonrelativistic psi(alpha)-exponential type orbitals (psi(alpha)-ETO), phi(alpha)-momentum space orbitals (phi(alpha)-MSO) and z(alpha)-hyperspherical harmonics (z(alpha)-HSH) for particles with spin s = 0 the new analytical relations for the quasirelativistic and relativistic spinor wave functions and Slater spinor orbitals in coordinate, momentum and four-dimensional spaces are derived, where a = 1, 0,-1,-2,.... The 2-component quasirelativistic and 4-component relativistic spinor wave functions obtained are complete without the inclusion of the continuum. The relativistic spinor wave function sets and Slater spinor orbitals are expressed through the corresponding quasirelativistic spinor wave functions and Slater spinor orbitals, respectively. The analytical formulas for overlap integrals over quasirelativistic and relativistic Slater spinor orbitals with the same screening constants in coordinate space are also derived

    Theory of complete orthonormal relativistic vector wave function sets and Slater type relativistic vector orbitals in coordinate, momentum and four-dimensional spaces

    The new analytical relations for the relativistic vector wave functions and Slater type relativistic vector orbitals in coordinate, momentum and four-dimensional spaces are derived using the properties of quasirelativistic vector spherical harmonics introduced by the author in previous paper (I. I. Guseinov, J. Math. Chem., 44, 197 (2008)) and complete orthonormal scalar basis sets of nonrelativistic psi(alpha)-exponential type orbitals (psi(alpha)-ETO), phi(alpha)-momentum space orbitals (phi(alpha)-MSO) and z(alpha)-hyperspherical harmonics (z(alpha)-HSH). The 6-component relativistic vector wave functions obtained are complete without the inclusion of the continuum. The relativistic vector wave function sets and Slater type relativistic vector orbitals are expressed through the corresponding quasirelativistic vector wave functions and Slater vector orbitals, respectively. The analytical formulas are also derived for overlap integrals over Slater type relativistic vector orbitals with the same screening constants in coordinate space

    New implementation of second-order Møller-Plesset perturbation theory with an analytic Slater-type geminal

    No full text
    The author introduces a new method for the exchange commutator integrals in explicitly correlated Møller-Plesset second order perturbation theory. The method is well suited with an analytic Slater-type geminal correlation factor. He also explains the scheme for auxiliary integrals needed for the correlation factor. Based on different Ansätze, he analyzes the performance of the method on correlation energies and reaction enthalpies in detail.journal articl

    Combined theory of one- and two-electron bipolar and polar multicenter integrals of noninteger n Slater functions and Coulomb-Yukawa-like potentials with noninteger indices

    No full text
    By the use of one-range addition theorems suggested by the author, the combined theory for one- and two-electron multicenter integrals of chi -noninteger n Slater type orbitals (chi -NISTOs) and bipolar and polar noninteger Coulomb (C-NIBPs and C-NIPs) -Yukawa (Y-NIBPs and Y-NIPs)-like correlated potentials is presented. These multicenter integrals are expressed through the basic polar integrals of chi -integer n Slater type orbitals (chi -ISTOs) and Coulomb-Yukawa-like potentials with integer indices (C-IPs and Y-IPs). We note that the noninteger quantum number n is defined as n*

    Theory of complete orthonormal sets of relativistic tensor wave functions and Slater tensor orbitals of particles with arbitrary spin in position, momentum and four-dimensional spaces

    No full text
    Using the complete orthonormal basis sets of nonrelativistic and quasirelativistic orbitals introduced by the author in previous papers for particles with arbitrary spin the new analytical relations for the 2(2s + 1)-component relativistic tensor wave functions and Slater tensor orbitals in position, momentum and four-dimensional spaces are derived, where s = 1/2, 1, 3/2, 2, .... The relativistic tensor function sets are expressed through the corresponding non relativistic and quasirelativistic orbitals. The analytical formulas for overlap integrals over relativistic Slater tensor orbitals in position space are also derived. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved

    Combined theory of two-electron nonrelativistic and quasirelativistic multicenter integrals over integer and noninteger n Slater type orbitals using auxiliary functions Qnsq and G-nsq

    No full text
    Using complete orthonormal sets of psi(alpha)-exponential type orbitals (alpha = 1, 0, -1, -2, ...) a large number of series expansion formulas for the two-electron nonrelativistic and quasirelativistic multicenter integrals over integer and noninteger n Slater type orbitals is obtained through the non- and quasi-relativistic basic functions. The non- and quasirelativistic basic functions are determined by the linear combinations of auxiliary functions Q(ns)(q) and G(-ns)(q) introduced by the author. The coefficients of series expansion relations are expressed in terms of two-center overlap integrals over integer n Slater functions. The relationships obtained are valid for the arbitrary location, quantum numbers and screening constants of orbitals

    The anatomy of a humanoid robot.

    No full text
    This paper investigates the feasibility of constructing a humanoid robot using existing technology. Firstly, the adoption of the humanoid form is justified. The structure, strength and power capabilities of a human are analysed in engineering terms, and taken to represent the requirements specification for a humanoid robot. Technological alternatives to the biological components are reviewed and compared to this specification. The feasibility of matching human performance is considered, and it is concluded that the necessary power and energy requirements can be fitted within the mass and volume of the human body
