Quantum chemistry forms the basis of molecular modeling, a tool widely used to obtain important chemical information and visual images of molecular systems. Recent advances in computing have resulted in considerable developments in molecular modeling, and these developments have led to significant achievements in the design and synthesis of drugs and catalysts. This comprehensive text provides upper-level undergraduates and graduate students with an introduction to the implementation of quantum ideas in molecular modeling, exploring practical applications alongside theoretical explanations. Written in a straightforward and accessible manner, this Handbook of Computational Quantum Chemistry encompasses such topics as the Hartree-Fock method; matrix SCF equations; the implementation of the closed-shell case; and an introduction to molecular integrals that extends to their implementation. Other topics and subtopics include open shells; population analysis; molecular symmetry and symmetry orbital transformations; linear multi-determinant methods; core potentials; time-dependent perturbations; density functional theory; and implementation of the Kohn-Sham equations. The text concludes with helpful suggestions for additional reading.

This multi-volume handbook is the first to cover all questions concerning homogeneous hydrogenation. As such, it presents the catalysts, the scope of their application, mechanistic aspects, asymmetric methods, combinatorials catalysis, recycling methods and industrial examples. In 45 clearly structured chapters, the book includes all hydrogenation reactions catalyzed by soluble transition metal-based catalysts. All authors adopt an applied approach, emphasizing those aspects important for industrial use. With some 2,000 illustrations and 50 tables, this is a must-have for everyone working in the chemicals and pharmaceutical industries, as well as for graduate students in chemistry.

Free radical initiators-chemical molecules which easily decompose into free radicals-serve as reactive intermediates in synthetic methodologies such as organic and polymer synthesis as well as in technological processes, oligomerization, network formation, and kinetic research. The Handbook of Free Radical Initiators presents an up-to-date account of the physicochemical data on radical initiators and reactions of radical generation. Individual chapters include: * Dialkyl Peroxides and Hydroperoxides * Diacyl Peroxides, Peresters, and Organic Polyoxides * Azo-Compounds * Bimolecular Reactions of Free Radical Generation by Ozone, Dioxygen, Hydroperoxides, and Haloid Molecules * Free Radical Abstraction Reactions * Free Radical Addition Reactions * Free Radical Recombination and Disproportoination Reactions

This book will prove invaluable to scientists, researchers, technologists, and upper-level students who need a comprehensive handbook supportive of colloid and surfactant research, development, and manufacture.

Mirroring the growth and direction of science for nearly a century, the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, now in its 90th edition, adds several new tables that will be among the most accessed in the world. These include Structure and Functions of Common Drugs, Solubility Parameters of Polymers, Major World Earthquakes, and Equilibrium Constants of Selected Enzyme Reactions. It adds major updates to several more, including Threshold Limits for Airborne Contaminants, Mass Spectral Peaks of Common Organic Solvents, and Properties of the Solar System. It also adds a table of the Handbook’s greatest fans: Nobel Laureates in Chemistry and Physics.

Современная генетика становится мостом, соединяющим естествознание, гуманитарные дисциплины и социальную практику в целостную систему. Увеличение удельного веса прямого воздействия на общественную жизнь биомедицины и генетики, в частности., превращает эти отрасли науки в силу, сравнимую по своей социально формирующей роли с политикой и экономикой. С точки зрения исследования развития познания, цель данной работы состоит в теоретическом анализе социокультурных проблем, обусловленных развитием фундаментальной генетики и генных технологий. В этом смысле проблематика этой книги может быть отнесена к новой области науки, сформировавшейся на стыке генетики и социологии, которая получила название «социальная генетика» (community genetics). В сфере философии и методологии науки ее задачей является сравнительный историко-научный и философско-методологический анализ (на примере генетики) общих механизмов сопряженной эволюции социокультурных и научных парадигм. Адресована ученым и преподавателям, специалистам в области философии, истории науки и генетики, студентам и аспирантам, специализирующимся в соответствующих научных дисциплинах, а также всем тем, кто интересуется социально-этическими аспектами развития теории и практики современной биологии и медицины.

This series of textbooks and supplements for pilots, student pilots, aviation instructors, and aviation specialists provides information on every topic needed to qualify for and excel in the field of aviation. Most FAA Knowledge Exams’ questions are taken directly from the information presented in these texts.

Applied Linguistics is not interpreted as a reduction of (theoretical) linguistics, nor as simply applying linguistic theories and methodologies. Rather, the assumption is that Applied Linguistics is a problem-oriented and problem-solving activity. As such, it is actively involved in the development of innovative theoretical approaches as well as practical solutions, drawing on insights from linguistics, but also from neighbouring disciplines such as psychology, anthropology, sociology, pedagogy, computer science, etc.

HTTP is the protocol that powers the Web. As Web applications become more sophisticated, and as emerging technologies continue to rely heavily on HTTP, understanding this protocol is becoming more and more essential for professional Web developers. By learning HTTP protocol, Web developers gain a deeper understanding of the Web's architecture and can create even better Web applications that are more reliable, faster, and more secure. The HTTP Developer's Handbook is written specifically for Web developers. It begins by introducing the protocol and explaining it in a straightforward manner. It then illustrates how to leverage this information to improve applications. Extensive information and examples are given covering a wide variety of issues, such as state and session management, caching, SSL, software architecture, and application security.

To configure and maintain an operating system is serious business. With UNIX and its wide variety of "flavors," it can be especially difficult and frustrating, and networking with UNIX adds still more challenges.UNIX Administration: A Comprehensive Sourcebook for Effective Systems & Network Management is a one-stop handbook for the administration and maintenance of UNIX systems and networks. With an outstanding balance of concepts and practical matters, it covers the entire range of administrative tasks,from the most basic to the advanced, from system startup and shutdown to network security and kernel reconfiguration. While focusing on the primary UNIX platforms, the author discusses all of the most common UNIX "flavors," including Solaris, Linux, HP-UX, AIX and SGI IRIX. Three chapters of case studies offer a practical look at UNIX implementation issues: UNIX installation, disk space upgrade, and several emergency situations that every administrator must expect to face at some point.Diverse yet detailed, filled with examples and specific procedures, this is the one book that both the novice and the seasoned professional need to learn UNIX administration and effectively perform their daily system and network-related duties.
