Part I

Potassium bis-(tricyanovinyl) amine, K+N[C(CN)=C(CN)2]2-, crystallizes in the monoclinic system with the space group Cc and lattice constants, a = 13.346 ± 0.003 Å, c = 8.992 ± 0.003 Å, B = 114.42 ± 0.02°, and Z = 4. Three dimensional intensity data were collected by layers perpendicular to b* and c* axes. The crystal structure was refined by the least squares method with anisotropic temperature factor to an R value of 0.064.

The average carbon-carbon and carbon-nitrogen bond distances in –C-CΞN are 1.441 ± 0.016 Å and 1.146 ± 0.014 Å respectively. The bis-(tricyanovinyl) amine anion is approximately planar. The coordination number of the potassium ion is eight with bond distances from 2.890 Å to 3.408 Å. The bond angle C-N-C of the amine nitrogen is 132.4 ± 1.9°. Among six cyano groups in the molecule, two of them are bent by what appear to be significant amounts (5.0° and 7.2°). The remaining four are linear within the experimental error. The bending can probably be explained by molecular packing forces in the crystals.

Part II

The nuclear magnetic resonance of 81Br and 127I in aqueous solutions were studied. The cation-halide ion interactions were studied by studying the effect of the Li+, Na+, K+, Mg++, Cs+ upon the line width of the halide ions. The solvent-halide ion interactions were studied by studying the effects of methanol, acetonitrile, and acetone upon the line width of 81Br and 127I in the aqueous solutions. It was found that the viscosity plays a very important role upon the halide ions line width. There is no specific cation-halide ion interaction for those ions such as Mg++, Di+, Na+, and K+, whereas the Cs+ - halide ion interaction is strong. The effect of organic solvents upon the halide ion line width in aqueous solutions is in the order acetone ˃ acetonitrile ˃ methanol. It is suggested that halide ions do form some stable complex with the solvent molecules and the reason Cs+ can replace one of the ligands in the solvent-halide ion complex.

Part III

An unusually large isotope effect on the bridge hydrogen chemical shift of the enol form of pentanedione-2, 4(acetylacetone) and 3-methylpentanedione-2, 4 has been observed. An attempt has been made to interpret this effect. It is suggested from the deuterium isotope effect studies, temperature dependence of the bridge hydrogen chemical shift studies, IR studies in the OH, OD, and C=O stretch regions, and the HMO calculations, that there may probably be two structures for the enol form of acetylacetone. The difference between these two structures arises mainly from the electronic structure of the π-system. The relative population of these two structures at various temperatures for normal acetylacetone and at room temperature for the deuterated acetylacetone were calculated.

Isotope shifts of Kα1 x-ray transitions were measured for the Neodymium isotopes Nd 142, 143, 144, 145, 146, 148 and 150, the Samarium isotopes Sm 147, 148, 149, 150, 152 and 154, the Gadolinium isotopes Gd 154, 155, 156, 157, 158 and 160, the Dysprosium isotopes Dy 162 and 164, the Erbium isotopes Er 166, 168 and 170, the Hafnium isotopes Hf 178 and 180 and the Lead isotopes Pb 204, 206, 207 and 208. A curved crystal Cauchois spectrometer was used. The analysis of the measurement furnished the variation of the mean square charge radius of the nucleus, δ˂r2˃, for 23 isotope pairs. The experimental results were compared with theoretical values from nuclear models. Combining the x-ray shifts and the optical shifts in Nd and Sm yielded the optical mass shifts. An anomaly was observed in the odd-even shifts when the optical and the x-ray shifts were plotted against each other.

In this paper, the evolution of the gradient force pattern, focal shift, and focal switch induced by a three-portion pure phase-shifting apodizer is numerically investigated in detail. The results show that the proposed apodizer may induce tunable gradient force on the particles in the focal region, focal shift, and focal switch. By adjusting the geometrical parameters of the phase-shifting apodizer, multiple traps may occur with changeable distance between them, and the shape of the optical trap also evolves evidently. More interestingly, for certain geometrical parameters of the proposed apodizer, by changing the phase shift of inner annular portion, the considerable focal shift may occur with focal switch accompanying, which is discussed to show that this kind of apodizer may be a very promising method of transporting trapped particles. © 2005 Elsevier GmbH.

Beginning with a beam coherence polarization (BCP) matrix, we obtain an analytical intensity expression for radially polarized ultrashort pulsed laser beams that pass through an apertureless aplanatic lens. We also investigate the intensity distribution of radially polarized beams in the vicinity of the focus. The focal shift of these beams is studied in detail. The focal shift depends strongly on Z(F) that coincides with pi times the Fresnel number. (c) 2007 Optical Society of America.

Essa dissertação tem como objetivo identificar as percepções e representações de Conselheiros de Direitos da Criança e do Adolescente sobre a possibilidade de afirmação da sexualidade como um direito dos adolescentes, explorando como diferentes perspectivas em relação à sexualidade adolescente se articulam no discurso e atuação de atores do campo de garantia de direitos de crianças e adolescentes. Foram realizadas sete entrevistas qualitativas envolvendo conselheiros de direitos do Município e do Estado do Rio de Janeiro e do Conselho Nacional, tanto representantes governamentais quanto não-governamentais. O trabalho discute a emergência no cenário político dos direitos humanos de novos direitos e de novos sujeitos de direitos. A construção do ideário dos direitos sexuais, e do paradigma das crianças e adolescentes como sujeitos de direitos, trazido pela mudança no marco legal brasileiro, com a promulgação do Estatuto da Criança e do Adolescente (ECA), servem de base para uma debate acerca da possibilidade dos adolescentes serem titulares dos direitos sexuais, a partir das percepções dos conselheiros entrevistados. O trabalho se propõe a contribuir para uma reflexão mais geral sobre o quanto a sexualidade adolescente coloca em xeque tanto o ideário dos adolescentes sujeitos de direitos como o processo de universalização dos chamados direitos sexuais.

Data collected from an annual groundf ish survey of the eastern Bering Sea shelf from 1975 to 2002 were used to estimate biomass and biodiversity indexes for two fish guilds: f latfish and roundfish. Biomass estimates indicated that several species of f latfish (particularly rock sole, arrowtooth flounder, and f lathead sole), several large sculpins (Myoxocephalus spp.), bigmouth (Hemitripterus bolini), and skates (Bathyraja spp.) had increased. Declining species included several f latfish species and many smaller roundfish species of sculpins, eelpouts (Lycodes spp.), and sablefish (Anoplopoma fimbria). Biodiversity indexes were calculated by using biomass estimates for both guilds from 1975 through 2002 within three physical domains on the eastern Bering Sea shelf. Biodiversity trends were found to be generally declining within the roundfish guild and generally increasing within the f latfish guild and varied between inner, middle, and outer shelf domains. The trends in biodiversity indexes from this study correlated strongly with the regime shift reported for the late 1970s and 1980s.

A tese pesquisa a problemática da inserção da Escola na Sociedade do Conhecimento no contexto da Cibercultura, considerando o distanciamento que as práticas educativas escolares vêm apresentando em relação ao universo midiático da cultura social contemporânea na qual os alunos estão inseridos. Utiliza como referencial teórico os fundamentos da Teoria da Complexidade, a partir do que ficou conhecido como paradigma complexo de Edgar Morin. Neste contexto, visa refletir sobre a necessidade de ampliar o olhar sobre o conhecimento como forma de superação do paradigma fragmentador. Parte da hipótese de que as práticas educativas, permeadas pela tecnologia, quando fundamentadas em um paradigma complexo, podem abrir novas possibilidades de superação com a promoção de mudanças pedagógicas em direção a um novo paradigma educativo mais dinâmico, criativo e integrador. Investiga se o uso da Informática na Educação pode, de fato, contribuir com as reformas necessárias à Educação em tempos de complexidade. Tendo o Colégio Pedro II como espaço de investigação, a pesquisa desenvolveu-se em duas fases e objetivou compreender o movimento do Colégio para ajustar-se e atender as demandas educacionais da sociedade contemporânea em acelerado processo de transformação e imersa na Cultura da Convergência. Analisa a incorporação e apropriação das tecnologias no processo de escolarização pelo corpo docente do Colégio e como isto tem se dado na prática da instituição. A pesquisa qualitativa de caráter exploratório tem como cenário de investigação os laboratórios de Informática Educativa (espaços multimídia com conexão a Internet) nos diferentes CAMPI do 1 e 2 Segmentos do Ensino Fundamental e nas atividades desenvolvidas, através da atuação dos professores de Informática Educativa, em parceria ou não, com os professores de outras disciplinas. Para analise dos dados foram utilizados conceitos da Teoria da Complexidade, como por exemplo, as categorias provenientes do Tetragrama Organizacional e os Operadores da Complexidade. O material empírico extraído da análise documental e das entrevistas sobre as práticas realizadas nos laboratório do Colégio resulta em mapeamento das diferentes formas de estruturação do trabalho pedagógico dos laboratórios, análise do ciclo docente: planejamento, execução e avaliação. A pesquisa de campo exploratória, inicialmente de caráter descritivo, passa a enfatizar, progressivamente, o caráter qualitativo da pesquisa, objetivando assim, oferecer maior clareza e visibilidade ao real estado da Informática Educativa para o Colégio Pedro II. A pesquisa desenvolvida analisa a realidade escolar no ponto onde estamos, que é a prática da interdisciplinaridade em direção a transdisciplinaridade. A transdisciplinaridade, em vários aspectos, ainda representa uma utopia pedagógica no contexto formal do sistema educacional brasileiro que estrutura-se de modo visivelmente fragmentado.

Recent research demonstrated significantly lower growth and survival of Bristol Bay sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) during odd-numbered years of their second or third years at sea (1975, 1977, etc.), a trend that was opposite that of Asian pink salmon (O. gorbuscha) abundance. Here we evaluated seasonal growth trends of Kvichak and Egegik river sockeye salmon (Bristol Bay stocks) during even- and odd-numbered years at sea by measuring scale circuli increments within each g rowth zone of each major salmon age group between 1955 and 2000. First year scale growth was not significantly different between odd- and even-numbered years, but peak growth of age-2 smolts was significantly higher than age-1. smolts. Total second and third year scale growth of salmon was significantly lower during odd- than during even-numbered years. However, reduced scale growth in odd-numbered years began after peak growth in spring and continued through summer and fall even though most pink salmon had left the high seas by late July (10−18% growth reduction in odd vs. even years). The alternating odd and even year growth pattern was consistent before and after the 1977 ocean reg ime shift. During 1977−2000, when salmon abundance was relatively great, sockeye salmon growth was high during specific seasons compared with that during 1955−1976, that is to say, immediately after entry to Bristol Bay, after peak growth in the first year, during the middle of the second growing season, and during spring of the third season. Growth after the spring peak in the third year at sea was relatively low during 1977−2000. We hypothesize that high consumption rates of prey by pink salmon during spring through mid-July of odd-numbered years, coupled with declining zooplankton biomass during summer and potentially cyclic abundances of squid and other prey, contributed to reduced prey availability and therefore reduced growth of Bristol Bay sockeye salmon during late spring through fall of odd-numbered years.
