Watch out! Big Bro's coming!

El ratón, la rana, el loro, el chimpancé, el elefante todos están muy asustados por que se acerca a ellos el Gran hermano.

Por qué bra, bre, bri, bro, bru y bla, ble, bli, blo, blu se escriben con 'b' y no con 'v'?

Se presenta un cuento que ayuda, a nivel de infantil y primaria, al aprendizaje de la ortografía relacionada con la 'b' y con la 'v'. Se completa la obra con algunos ejercicios de comprensión de la lectura y otros relacionados directamente con la ortografía.

Evaluation of data for atmospheric models: master equation/RRKM calculations on the combination reaction, BrO+NO2 -> BrONO2, a conundrum

Experimental data for the title reaction were modeled using master equation (ME)/RRKM methods based on the Multiwell suite of programs. The starting point for the exercise was the empirical fitting provided by the NASA (Sander, S. P.; Finlayson-Pitts, B. J.; Friedl, R. R.; Golden, D. M.; Huie, R. E.; Kolb, C. E.; Kurylo, M. J.; Molina, M. J.; Moortgat, G. K.; Orkin, V. L.; Ravishankara, A. R. Chemical Kinetics and Photochemical Data for Use in Atmospheric Studies, Evaluation Number 15; Jet Propulsion Laboratory: Pasadena, California, 2006)(1) and IUPAC (Atkinson, R.; Baulch, D. L.; Cox, R. A.: R. F. Hampson, J.; Kerr, J. A.; Rossi, M. J.; Troe, J. J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data. 2000, 29, 167) 2 data evaluation panels, which represents the data in the experimental pressure ranges rather well. Despite the availability of quite reliable parameters for these calculations (molecular vibrational frequencies (Parthiban, S.; Lee, T. J. J. Chem. Phys. 2000, 113, 145)3 and a. value (Orlando, J. J.; Tyndall, G. S. J. Phys. Chem. 1996, 100,. 19398)4 of the bond dissociation energy, D-298(BrO-NO2) = 118 kJ mol(-1), corresponding to Delta H-0(circle) = 114.3 kJ mol(-1) at 0 K) and the use of RRKM/ME methods, fitting calculations to the reported data or the empirical equations was anything but straightforward. Using these molecular parameters resulted in a discrepancy between the calculations and the database of rate constants of a factor of ca. 4 at, or close to, the low-pressure limit. Agreement between calculation and experiment could be achieved in two ways, either by increasing Delta H-0(circle) to an unrealistically high value (149.3 kJ mol(-1)) or by increasing , the average energy transferred in a downward collision, to an unusually large value (> 5000 cm(-1)). The discrepancy could also be reduced by making all overall rotations fully active. The system was relatively insensitive to changing the moments of inertia in the transition state to increase the centrifugal effect. The possibility of involvement of BrOONO was tested and cannot account for the difficulties of fitting the data.

Bühne & Büro. Gegenwartstheater in der Schweiz

Theater lebt von der unmittelbaren Begegnung von Bühne und Publikum. denn seine spezifische Wirkung entfaltet sich im Live-Erlebnis. Die Formen des Schweizer Gegenwartstheaters sind vielfältig und reichen vom Stadttheater über die Laienoperette bis zu Poetry Slam. Neben Kreativität und Spiellust gehört zur Bühnenkunst aber auch das Betriebsbüro, weil Theater Organisation braucht, und natürlich Geld. Diese Zusammenhänge werden in den facettenreichen Sondierungen des Bandes «Bühne & Büro» beleuchtet. Der Band dokumentiert die vielfältigen Formen und den Beziehungsreichtum des Theaterschaffens in der Schweiz. Es beschreibt unterschiedliche Theaterformen wie Stadttheater, die freie Theaterszene und Tanztheater bis hin zu weniger bekannten Formen wie Behinderten- und Gefängnistheater. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt besteht in der Untersuchung der Zusammenhänge zwischen Organisationsformen und Produktions-, Distributions- und Rezeptionsbedingungen von Theater in verschiedenen Regionen der Schweiz. Das Buch ist auf das Theaterschaffen in der Gegenwart ausgerichtet und wirft Fragen zu dessen Entwicklung in der Zukunft auf. Es richtet sich an ein breites Publikum Theater- und Kulturinteressierter. Theaterschaffenden an grossen Bühnen, in freien Gruppen und in Theatervereinen kann es Anregungen für den Ausbau und die Verbesserung der eigenen Organisationsstrukturen geben. Die Entscheidungsträger in der Kulturpolitik erhalten Informationen zum Zusammenspiel von Ausgaben, Organisationsformen, künstlerischem Output und Publikumsverhalten. Öffentlichen und privaten Kulturstiftungen sowie Sponsoren aus der Privatwirtschaft bietet es Entscheidungshilfen für Förderungsmassnahmen und kulturelles Engagement.
