(2012-07-16)The study of high-speed flows represents a challenging problem in the fluid dynamics field due to the presence of chemical reactions and non-equilibrium effects. Hypersonic flights, where speeds reach Mach 5 and above, are ...
-
(2019-05-29)Since the discovery of [Mn₁₂O₁₂(CH₃COO)₁₆(H₂O)₄], research in the area of molecular magnetism has been directed at designing single molecule magnets (SMMs) whose slow paramagnetic relaxation occurs with long relaxation ...
-
Graph Neural Networks are behind many pharmacological breakthroughs due to their innate ability to learn structural properties of molecules and accelerate high-throughput screening for favorable characteristics that could ...
-
(2020-12-01)The ocean is absorbing an increasing amount of carbon dioxide (CO2), which is rapidly changing seawater chemistry. As seawater CO2 increases, ecosystem calcification is hindered by the resulting decline in pH, aragonite ...

Investigating the Impacts of Atmospheric Aerosols on Cloud Formation Relevant to Weather and Climate (2014-12-10)In recent years, human induced air pollution has significantly increased, with profound atmospheric implications from local, regional, to global scales [Stocker et al., 2013]. This impact has sparked active research on the ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2000)Molecules that inhibit the immune response by blocking a specific signaling pathway involved in T-cell activation have proven to be useful biochemical tools. Pateamine A, a potent immunosuppressant isolated from the ...
-
(2020-08-04)In recent years, there has been a rising interest in the field of highly-porous materials. Porous materials come in a large variety of subtypes, allowing for very high levels of versatility and tunability. Porous materials ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, )In 1928 Rinde first pointed out the possibility of obtaining molecular weight distributions from sedimentation equilibrium experiments. Although numerous attempts were made to obtain molecular weight distributions from ...
-
On the determination of some medium and high Z elements using charged particle activation analysis (Texas A&M University. Libraries, )Charged particle activation analysis has been evaluated as a rapid, non-destructive analytical procedure for several medium-Z elements based on the detection of short-lived nuclides (1-second < T[subscript 1/2] < 5 minutes) ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, )Recoil tritium atoms were allowed to react in hexafluorocyclobutene-moderated systems with hydrocarbons of the general formula R?éü-CH?éâ. The CH?éâT yields per bond from the hot tritium abstraction of end methyl groups ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, )A procedure for the synthesis of heteroaromatic amine derivatives of binary phosphorus selenides, P?ééSe?éç.3 B, P?éäSe?éç.2 B', P?éäSe?éç.3 B'' and P?éäSe?éê.6 B'', is described. This series of compounds, with B=isoquinoline, ...
-
(2010-10-12)Several cyclic molecules along with two bicyclic molecules were investigated using infrared (IR), Raman, ultraviolet (UV) absorption, fluorescence excitation (FES), and single vibronic level fluorescence (SVLF) ...
-
(Texas A&M University. Libraries, )A study of the stereochemistry of 1,4-diene systems containing structural features which limit the number f reaction pathways available was undertaken using as a model 2-phenylspiro [5.5] undeca-1,7-diene (76). The sole ...
-
(2012-11-13)The major directions of this dissertation involve (1) the syntheses and characterization of molecular polygons incorporating sp1hybridized carbon linkers and L2Pt corners (L2 = cis-1,3-diphosphine), (2) the development of ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2002)The TATA binding protein, TBP, plays a central role in transcription by binding to DNA and recruiting other proteins through complementary surface-surface interactions. Understanding the nature of these interactions not ...
-
(2016-04-08)This work centers on recycling of Rh catalysts and utilizing ion exchange to separate nuclear waste. In the area of Rh-type catalyst supports, non-porous zirconium phosphate nanoplatelets (ZrP) were utilized to provide ...
-
(2016-08-01)Supramolecular chemistry encompasses the interdisciplinary study of weak intermolecular forces which allows for access to sophisticated architectures and functionalities. One newly recognized supramolecular force that is ...
