Exact solutions for vibrational levels of the Morse potential via the asymptotic iteration method
Exact solutions for vibrational levels of diatomic molecules via the Morse
potential are obtained by means of the asymptotic iteration method. It is shown
that, the numerical results for the energy eigenvalues of are all
in excellent agreement with the ones obtained before. Without any loss of
generality, other states and molecules could be treated in a similar way
Coherent localization exhibited by unequal Auger Doppler components.
If coherent superpositions such as the symmetry eigenstates gerade and ungerade are in turn coherently superimposed, localization occurs. This effect is studied by the intensities of the Doppler components of electrons emitted from dissociating fragments of superexcited O2. The measurements show clear evidence for such coherent localization
The Klein-Gordon equation with the Kratzer potential in d dimensions
We apply the Asymptotic Iteration Method to obtain the bound-state energy
spectrum for the d-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation with scalar S(r) and
vector potentials V(r). When S(r) and V(r) are both Coulombic, we obtain all
the exact solutions; when the potentials are both of Kratzer type, we obtain
all the exact solutions for S(r)=V(r); if S(r) > V(r) we obtain exact solutions
under certain constraints on the potential parameters: in this case, a possible
general solution is found in terms of a monic polynomial, whose coefficients
form a set of elementary symmetric polynomials.Comment: 13 page
Self-assembly of a new cobalt complex, (C6H14N2)3[CoCl4]Cl: Synthesis, empirical and DFT calculations
International audienceThe aim of this work is the preparation and the crystallization of new organic–inorganic hybrid compound including cyclohexylamine and [CoCl4]2−, (C6H14N2)3[CoCl4]Cl. Our compound has been studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), IR and TG-DTA examination. The XRD investigation allows to structurally distinguish our material by its monoclinic system and P21/n space group through the lattice parameters a = 15.2645 (12) Å, b = 10.0843 (7) Å, c = 17.4450 (13) Å, β = 95.957 (3)° and Z = 4. The crystal arrangement shows inorganic entities of [CoCl4]2− and chloride spreading in (10 1-) plane which are connected to cyclohexylammonium cations via N(C)–H…Cl H-bonds. The experimental studies on the compound have been accompanied computationally by DFT calculations via the B3LYP functional. The intermolecular interactions using were quantitatively studied by 3D-HS coupled with two dimensional fingerprint (2D-FP) plots and analyzed by the RDG and AIM approaches. The electron localization function (ELF) investigation was performed to explain the chemical structure of (C6H14N2)3[CoCl4]Cl. © 2021 The Author(s

Fruit and vegetable consumption among adults in Saudi Arabia, 2013

However, current national estimates on fruit and vegetable consumption in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA) are nonexistent. We conducted a large household survey to inform the Saudi Ministry of Health (MOH) on a major modifiable risk factor: daily consumption of fruits and vegetables. Methods: The Saudi Health Interview Survey is a national multistage survey of individuals aged 15 years or older. It includes questions on sociodemographic characteristics, tobacco consumption, diet, physical activity, health care utilization, different health-related behaviors, and self-reported chronic conditions. We used a backward elimination multivariate logistic regression model to measure association between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-recommended daily consumption of fruits and vegetables and different factors. Results: Between April and June 2013, a total of 10,735 participants completed the survey. Overall, 2.6% of Saudis aged 15 years or older met the CDC guidelines for daily consumption of fruits and vegetables. The likelihood of meeting the CDC guidelines increased with age; among women; among persons who graduated from elementary or high school or had a higher education; among residents of Makkah, Al Sharqia, Ha’il, or Jizan; among those who consumed at least two servings of meat or chicken per day; among those who visited a health care facility for a routine medical exam within the last 3 years; and among those who have been diagnosed with hypertension. Conclusion: We have showed that KSA is in dire need of improving the diet of its population. Our findings call for urgent research to understand the reasons for low fruit and vegetable consumption, focusing on price or preference in order to develop and implement culturally and country-relevant solutions to increase the consumption of fruits and vegetables.
