The Success Story of Gold-Based Catalysts for Gas- and Liquid-Phase Reactions: A Brief Perspective and Beyond
Gold has long held the fascination of mankind. For millennia it has found use in art, cosmetic metallurgy and architecture; this element is seen as the ultimate statement of prosperity and beauty. This myriad of uses is made possible by the characteristic inertness of bulk gold; allowing it to appear long lasting and above the tarnishing experienced by other metals, in part providing its status as the most noble meta
Nilpotent-like Fitting formations of finite soluble groups
[EN] In this paper the subnormal subgroup closed saturated formations of finite soluble groups containing nilpotent groups are fully characterised by means of extensions of well-known properties enjoyed by the formation of all nilpotent groups.This research has been supported by Proyecto PB 97-0674-C02-02 of DGICYT, Ministerio de Educación y Ciencia, Spain.Ballester-Bolinches, A.; Pérez-Ramos, M.; Martínez Pastor, A.

On the product of two π-decomposable soluble groups
Let the group G = AB be a product of two π-decomposable sub-groups A = Oπ(A) × Oπ' (A) and B = Oπ(B) × Oπ' (B) where π is a set of primes. The authors conjecture that Oπ(A)Oπ(B) = Oπ(B)Oπ(A) if π is a set of odd primes. In this paper it is proved that the conjecture is true if A and B are soluble. A similar result with certain additional restrictions holds in the case 2 ∈ π. Moreover, it is shown that the conjecture holds if Oπ '(A) and Oπ'(B) have coprime orders
Las historias de vida en la formación inicial del profesorado de educación física
En este trabajo se plantea la utilización de las ¿Historias de Vida¿ en la Formación del Profesorado de Educación Física como punto de partida en el desarrollo de procesos de formación del profesorado reflexivos y críticos. En un primer apartado realizamos una revisión sobre el estado de la cuestión a partir de los trabajos realizados en nuestro área curricular. En un segundo apartado explicamos como las historias de vida sirven como técnica de introspección y toma de conciencia de sus creencias y planteamientos sobre Educación Física Escolar. En este sentido la utilización de historias de vida en la Formación Inicial del Profesorado de Educación Física es extraordinariamente interesante como punto de partida a la hora de comprender mejor el sentido de las diferentes asignaturas y la necesidad de ir elaborando sus propios modelos como profesores de Educación Física
German-speaking psychologists in English-speaking sources. Reflections on national trends in the history of psychology
The ideal of an universal science without national boundaries, has occasionally obscured the reality of the consistent national trends which have doubtless occurred in research and theorising of different specialities. In our field, according to Ribot, there were a century ago two existing branches of Psychology, in Germany and England respectively, which could be characterized by differentiating traits. This work aims to raise some reflections on the existence of these national trends in the History of Psychology, as regards to most prominent authors in the field. Our aim is to assess the presence and influence of German eminent scientists bom in the past century, in the current Psychology, as well as their possible clustering face to authors of different nationality. Both, a quantitative study of their influence on various selected English-speaking sources, and a qualitative analysis in terms of generation, nationality and scientific activity are included

Physiological response of post-veraison deficit irrigation strategies and growth patterns of table grapes (cv. Crimson Seedless)
To determine whether partial root-zone drying (PRD) offers physiological advantages compared with regulated deficit irrigation (RDI), a 3 year long-experiment was conducted on a commercial vineyard of ‘Crimson Seedless’ table grapes (Vitis vinifera L.). Four different drip irrigation treatments were imposed: (i) a Control treatment irrigated at 110% of seasonal crop evapotranspiration (ETc), (ii), a regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) treatment irrigated similar to Control before veraison and at 50% of the Control treatment post-veraison, (iii) a partial root-zone drying (PRD) irrigated similar to RDI but alternating (every 10–14 days) the dry and wet side of the root-zone, and (iv) a null irrigation treatment (NI) which only received the natural precipitation and occasional supplementary irrigation when midday stem water potential (Ψs) dropped below −1.2 MPa. Post-veraison, PRD vines accumulated greater localized soil and plant water deficit at midday than RDI vines, but maintained similar pre-dawn water potential (Ψpd) values. Stomatal conductance (gs) of PRD vines remained high, likely because there was sufficient root water uptake from irrigated soil. Xylem ABA concentration ([ABA]xylem) did not change yet intrinsic WUE (WUEi) decreased compared to RDI vines, probably because PRD induced greater root density and root development at depth, allowing greater water uptake from roots in the wet part of the soil profile. Vegetative growth was only decreased by severe deficit irrigation (NI) although total leaf area index (LAI) was also affected by PRD in the 1st and 3rd year.. PRD can be considered a useful strategy in semiarid areas with limited water resources because sustained water use maintained assimilation rates despite greater stress than conventional RDI strategy, which may be related to root and morphological adjustment
Products of finite connected subgroups
For a non-empty class of groups L, a finite group G = AB is said to be an L-connected product of the subgroups A and B if e L for all a e A and b e B. In a previous paper, we prove that, for such a product, when L = S is the class of finite soluble groups, then [A, B] is soluble. This generalizes the theorem of Thompson that states the solubility of finite groups whose two-generated subgroups are soluble. In the present paper, our result is applied to extend to finite groups previous research about finite groups in the soluble universe. In particular, we characterize connected products for relevant classes of groups, among others, the class of metanilpotent groups and the class of groups with nilpotent derived subgroup. Additionally, we give local descriptions of relevant subgroups of finite groups
