FT-IR Spectroscopic Studies of Catalysts

The role of FTIR speetroscopy in catalytic studies is briefly discussed and some typical examples are shown. IR spectra of weakly bound hydrogen on PtjSi02 reveal surface heterogeneity; The hydrogen concentration on the surface is described by a Temkin isotherm. Adsorption of unsaturated C6 ring compounds on hydrogen poor Pt/Si02 is essentially a self\u27-hydrogenation process resulting in the formation of cyclohexane and carbon deposit on the metal surface. Chemisorption of n-hexane and benzene on hydrogen-rlch Ni/Si02 surface gives identical spectra under similar conditions. The same phenomenon is established for n-butane and benzene after chemisorption on the hydrogen-poor surface. The infrared and Raman spectra of C.H6 on NijSi02 suggested a symmetry lowering somewhere between C6v and C3v because of the nonplanarity of C6H6and the site symmetry of the surface

A Structured Framework and Resources to Use to Get Your Medical Education Work Published.

IntroductionMedical educators often have great ideas for medical education scholarship but have difficulty converting their educational abstract or project into a published manuscript.MethodsDuring this workshop, participants addressed common challenges in developing an educational manuscript. In small-group case scenarios, participants discovered the importance of the "So what?" in making the case for their project. Incorporating conceptual frameworks, participants chose appropriate outcome metrics, discussed how to frame the discussion section, and ensured appropriate journal fit. After each small-group exercise, large-group discussions allowed the small groups to report back so that facilitators could highlight and reinforce key learning points. At the conclusion of the workshop, participants left with a checklist for creating an educational manuscript and an additional resources document to assist them in avoiding common pitfalls when turning their educational abstract/project into a publishable manuscript.ResultsThis workshop was presented in 2016 and 2017. Presenter evaluations were completed by 33 participants; 11 completed conference evaluations. The mean overall rating on presenter evaluations was 4.55 out of 5, while the conference evaluations mean was 3.73 out of 4. Comments provided on both evaluation tools highlighted the perceived effectiveness of the delivery and content. More than 50% of respondents stated that they planned to incorporate the use of conceptual frameworks in future work.DiscussionThis workshop helped participants address common challenges by providing opportunities for hands-on practice as well as tips and resources for use when submitting a medical education manuscript for publication

THE CHANGING OF ROWING TECHNIQUE AS A FUNCTION OF EXERTION

In our paper we examine the effect of the added exertion on the changing of technique in the rowing motion under laboratory conditions, usin4 an ergometer. The Hungarian National Junior team of four helped us at the examinations, which consisted of an anthropometrical measurement and five steps of exertion on the rowing ergometer, where the spreading of the motions during the exertion period was determined by a computer (SELSPOT system), meanwhile the level of tiredness by the measurement of pulse and the acidity of blood in the intervals between these periods. The comparison of the levels of tiredness shown by the physiological characteristics and of the changings in the motion of rowing can help us not only in the detection of unique errors, but also of some constant technical ones, which are dealt with thoroughly in my lecture

COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE CHANGES OF THE MASS MOMENTS OF INERTIA DURING A BREAST-STROKE

A new method of investigation of athletes' motion takes into consideration the changes of the principal moments of inertia and their directions during the interval of the motion, because these characterise the efficiency and the neuro-muscular regulation of the motion. This paper presents a comparative analysis of two top swimmers (Swl=Rozsa, Sw2=Guttler) and points out the significant difference caused by their alternate motion pattern

Surname Repetition and Isonymy in Northeastern Hungarian Marriages

This is the published version. Copyright 1990 Wayne State University Press.The repeated-pair (RP) approach to surnames in married couples is a measure of population subdivision resulting from the influence of lineagelike behavior in mate choice. An excess of RP over random RP implies limitations in mate choice and a reduction of genetic variability. Here we apply the RP method to data from the rural populations of Csaroda, Tiszaadony, and Tiszavid in northeastern Hungary. The results indicate small differences between RP and random RP for Tiszavid and somewhat larger differences for Tiszaadony and Csaroda. The excess of RP over random RP in Tiszavid, however, derives primarily from marriages simultaneously isonymous and repeating in only one lineage. The discrepancy between RP and random RP implies a small reduction in genetic variability
