Ferrocene substituted calix[4]pyrrole: a new electrochemical sensor for anions involving CH...anion hydrogen bonds
No full textA new calix[4]pyrrole 1 containing a ferrocene moiety attached to one of the meso-positions has been synthesised by co-condensation of pyrrole, cyclohexanone and acetylferrocene. The crystal structure of 1 has been elucidated whilst 1H NMR titration studies in acetonitrile-d3/DMSO-d6 9:1 v/v have revealed that 1 binds fluoride, chloride, and dihydrogen phosphate in this solvent mixture. Electrochemical studies using cyclic voltammetric and square-wave voltammetric techniques show cathodic shifts of up to 100 mV (approx.) with dihydrogen phosphate anions
Orbit design for future SpaceChip swarm missions in a planetary atmosphere
No full textThe effect of solar radiation pressure and atmospheric drag on the orbital dynamics of satellites-on-a-chip (SpaceChips) is exploited to design equatorial long-lived orbits about the oblate Earth. The orbit energy gain due to asymmetric solar radiation pressure, considering the Earth's shadow, is used to balance the energy loss due to atmospheric drag. Future missions for a swarm of SpaceChips are proposed, where a number of small devices are released from a conventional spacecraft to perform spatially distributed measurements of the conditions in the ionosphere and exosphere. It is shown that the orbit lifetime can be extended and indeed selected through solar radiation pressure and the end-of-life re-entry of the swarm can be ensured, by exploiting atmospheric drag
E-journals in a networked environment : its impact on academic libraries in the digital millennium
Full text linkThis paper tries to describe the Advantages of E-journals in terms of Accessibility, Speed distribution and production, Subscription Cost, Multimedia Capabilities, Internal and External Links etc and also tries to find out the Technological, Socio-cultural and Economic Barriers. The issues like Refereeing, Copyright and Licensing, Longevity and Storage and recent trends in E-journal publication and its implication on Academic Libraries in selection and acquisition, Cataloguing, archiving, user's access, training and support to staff and users are discussed in this paper

Constitutional conservatism, anti-democratic ideology, and the elective principle in British North America's upper legislative houses, 1848-1867
No full textThe chapter, "Constitutional conservatism, anti-democratic ideology, and the elective principle in British North America's upper legislative houses, 1848-1867" was written by the listed authors including Colin Grittner (Douglas College Faculty). "This new study of senates in small powers across the North Atlantic shows that the establishment and the reform of these upper legislative houses have followed remarkably parallel trajectories. Senate reforms emerged in the wake of deep political crises within the North Atlantic world and were influenced by the comparatively weak positions of small powers. Reformers responded to crises and constantly looked beyond borders and oceans for inspiration to keep their senates relevant." -- From publisher description.book chapterPublished

No full textThe productivity effects of decentralized reforms - an analysis of the Chinese industrial reforms
Full text linkThe empirical literature on the effects of ownership has not distinguished between the effects of ownership and the effects of control. It has also generally ignored the dynamic effects of various ownership and control rights. Using a rich set of panel data about changes in China's state-owned enterprises, the author examines the static and dynamic effects of decentralizing ownership and control rights. He finds that productivity and growth rates improved significantly when reform improved the incentives for managers and employees to learn and to work hard - for example by decentralizing the rights to control wages, make production decisions, and appoint new managers. Increasing profit-retention rates and adopting performance contracts - conventionally viewed as the most important reforms for China's state enterprises - did not improve productivity much. Overall, decentralization accounted for a least 42 percent of productivity growth in Chinese state enterprises in the 1980s. Much of that gain came from improvements in the growth rate of productivity rather than in improved levels of productivity.Labor Policies,Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Banks&Banking Reform,Public Health Promotion,Economic Theory&Research,Environmental Economics&Policies,Banks&Banking Reform,Health Monitoring&Evaluation,Municipal Financial Management
