    Towards a fuller understanding of selected molecular compounds

    No full text
    This work is separated into two distinct sections. The first section deals with the analysis by variable temperature single crystal X-ray diffraction of crystalline molecular materials with novel physical properties. The second section details the electron density analysis of selected crystalline compounds using high resolution, low temperature single crystal X-ray diffraction. Chapter 1 provides introduction to X-ray diffraction outlining the theory this work is based on. Chapter 2 introduces the molecular material studies based on materials containing the bis(ethylenedithio)-tetrathiaftilvalene molecule. The aim of these studies was to achieve a greater understanding of the materials and the changes they undergo when exposed to variations in temperature whilst in the crystalline state. These structural changes observed are very minor but have dramatic effects on the electrical properties of the materials studied. It became apparent that the only way to form a full understanding of these materials was to be able to 'see' the electronic configuration of the materials, not just their gross structure. The field of electron density analysis by X- ray diffraction is now a well documented area. Chapter 4 provides an introduction to the field of electron density analysis. Diffraction experiments were conducted on systems of different complexity to investigate this field and these results are reported in Chapter 5. No electron density analyses have been conducted on the molecular materials studied in Chapter 3 as yet, due to the lack of crystals of suitable quality. It was also noted that to fully categorise the nature of the physical changes occurring in these structures that a diffractometer capable of analysing these samples throughout the temperature range of their physical phenomena was needed. An outline for the development of such a diffractometer is detailed in Chapter 6, 'future works'

    Defamation, A Camouflage of Psychic Interests: The Beginning of a Behavioral Analysis

    No full text
    Does the law of defamation need to be reformed? The author thinks so. Professor Probert rejects the doctrine of libel per se and questions the courts\u27 understanding and use of the term reputation. It is his belief that plaintiffs on an individual basis should have increased benefit of the knowledge accumulated by the various social sciences in proving the harm done by the alleged defamation, with more liberalization in the requirements of pleading and proof than is now generally countenanced by the courts

    Evolution of the Windows Kernel Architecture - Win7 and Beyond

    No full text
    The core architecture of the Windows kernel differs significantly from UNIX, though many of the functions are necessarily similar.  This talk will cover the Windows kernel architecture, focusing on areas of difference from UNIX.  Then some specific recent kernel changes will be described: integrity levels, removalof the hottest kernel locks, and the move towards user-mode scheduling to support the ConcRT task-based concurrency run-time.  Finally, the talk will lookat some of the OS challenges ahead due to the silicon power-wall and the resulting heterogeneous multi-core/many-core systems that will dominate the PC landscape within a few years. About the speaker Dave Probert is a kernel architect within the Windows Core Operating Systems Division at Microsoft where he is currently working on the next generations of Windows. He is also the architect for the Windows Academic Program, developing both the WRK package and ProjectOZ. Previously he managed kernel development for Windows, starting with the Windows 2000 release. Dave Probert joined Microsoft in 1996, after earning his Ph.D. in Electrical & Computer Engineering at UC Santa Barbara developing the SPACE project with Prof. John Bruno. His prior industry experience includes serving as Vice President of Software Engineering at Culler Scientific Systems, consulting for various companies on UNIX kernel internals, and working as a systems architect at Burroughs corporation designinghardware and writing microcode for the B1900. During Spring Quarter 2009 Dave Probert taught the undergraduate operating systems course at University of Washington's Bothell campus using Windows. </p

    “Unlicensed Greek”: The “Dialect of Alexandria” in Ancient Greek Scholarship

    No full text
    This paper aims to analyse the development of the notion of “Alexandrian Greek” in ancient Greek scholarship. In the Hellenistic and early Imperial treatises On the Dialect of the Alexandrians, Alexandria represents the vantage point from which to examine forms in use in postclassical Greek (not exclusively Alexandrian localisms) and show that they are formally correct and also used in literature. In the Imperial and Byzantine sources, the Ἀλεξανδρεῖς (‘Alexandrians’) are used as a sociolinguistic category in opposition to both Atticizing Greek and the standard (high, literary) Koine. This transformation in the notion of “Alexandrian Greek” from Hellenistic to Imperial times likely reflects the evolution of the Greek approaches to language correctness

    Divorced, bigamist, bereaved? The family historian's guide to marital breakdown, separation, widowhood and remarriage : from 1600 to the 1970s

    No full text
    In this follow-up to the bestselling Marriage Law for Genealogists, Rebecca Probert explains marital breakdown, separation, divorce, bigamy, bereavement and remarriage from the 1600s through to the late twentieth century. From the evidential requirements of the divorce courts through to the testimonies of convicted bigamists, and from men who married their late wife's sister through to couples who went through more than one wedding ceremony together, this book examines law and social custom from every angle. Rebecca Probert is the leading authority on the history of marriage law and practice in England and Wales. She holds a chair in family law at the University of Warwick and regularly appears on TV and radio

    Amulets and Talismans of the Middle East and North Africa in Context

    No full text
    In this volume amulets and talismans are studied within a broader system of meaning that shapes how they were manufactured, activated and used in different networks. Text, material features and the environments in which these artifacts circulated, are studied alongside each other, resulting in an innovative approach to understand the many different functions these objects could fulfil in pre-modern times. Produced and used by Muslims and non-Muslims alike, the case studies presented here include objects that differ in size, material, language and shape. What the articles share is an all-round, in-depth approach that helps the reader understand the complexity of the objects discussed and will improve one’s understanding of the role they played within pre-modern societies.
