Unified Octonionic Representation of the 10-13 Dimensional Clifford Algebra

We give a one dimensional octonionic representation of the different Clifford algebra Cliff(5,5)\sim Cliff(9,1), Cliff(6,6)\sim Cliff(10,2) and lastly Cliff(7,6)\sim Cliff(10,3) which can be given by (8x8) real matrices taking into account some suitable manipulation rules.Comment: RevTex file, 19 pages, to be published in Int.

Corrosion Inhibition of Zinc Using Some Phenylthiazole Derivatives in Hydrochloric acid Solutions

The inhibitive action of some phenylthiazole derivatives namely: 2-acetylamino-5-p-bromophenylazo-4-phenylthiazole (BPT), 2-acetylamino-5-p-methylphenylazo-4-phenylthiazole (MPT), 2-acetylamino-5-p-methoxyphenylazo-4-phenylthiazole (XPT) and 2-acetylamino-5-p-nitrophenylazo-4-phenylthiazole (NPT), on zinc corrosion in 0.2 M HCl  has been studied using weight loss, potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)and electrochemical frequency modulation (EFM) measurements. The results showed that the dissolution rate of zinc decreases with increasing the phenylthiazole derivatives concentration and decreases with raising temperature. Polarization curves indicated that the studied inhibitors act as mixed-type inhibitors. The adsorption of the investigated compounds follows Langmuir adsorption isotherm model. The thermodynamic parameters of adsorption and corrosion processes were determined and discussed.Â

Octonionic Representations of GL(8,R) and GL(4,C)

Octonionic algebra being nonassociative is difficult to manipulate. We introduce left-right octonionic barred operators which enable us to reproduce the associative GL(8,R) group. Extracting the basis of GL(4,C), we establish an interesting connection between the structure of left-right octonionic barred operators and generic 4x4 complex matrices. As an application we give an octonionic representation of the 4-dimensional Clifford algebra.Comment: 14 pages, Revtex, J. Math. Phys. (submitted

Kinetics and Mechanism of Oxidation of Co (II) Ternary Complexes Involving N-(2-Acetamido) Iminodiacete and Some Amino Acids Acid by Periodate

The kinetics of oxidation of the cobalt (II) complexes, [CoII(ADA)(Gly)(H2O)2]-, (ADA = N-(2-acetamido) iminodi-acetic acid and (Gly = Glycine) by periodate in aqueous acetate medium to cobalt (III) have been studied spectrophotometrically at 530 nm over the 30–50°C and a variety pH 4.57-5.25 range and I = 0.50 mol dm-3 under pseudo first order condition by taking large excess of oxidant [IO4-] and it obeys the following rate law: Rate=[CoII(ADA)(Gly)(H2O)2]-[H5IO6]{k4K6+(k5K7K5/[H+])}.

Vegetative Growth, Fruit Set, Yield and Fruit Quality of "Le-Conte" Pear Grown Under Calcareous Soil Conditions as Affected by Different Levels of Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potassium

"Le-Conte" pear fruiting trees grown in newly reclaimed soils were fertilized with different levels of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium fertilization during three successive seasons of 2006, 2009 and 2010. However, results were calculated for the two seasons of 2009 and 2010. Tree vegetative growth (shoot length and diameter and leaf area), fruit set, yield increased significantly with increasing fertilization level. Fruit quality was increased significantly with increasing fertilization rate. The results also indicated that increasing N, P and K fertilization level lead to a gradual increment in leaf N, P and k content. Total sugars in fruits increased significantly with increasing the fertilization levels. On the other hand, starch decreased gradually with increasing the fertilization levels. The most effective level (650g. Ammonium nitrate + 325g. Potassium sulphate + 600g. Calcium superphosphate) leads to the highest vegetative growth, mineral leaf content, fruit yield and the best fruit quality as compared with other levels of fertilization. The lowest vegetative growth, yield and fruit weight and dimensions were recorded at the lowest level (250g. Ammonium nitrate + 125g. Potassium sulphate + 200g. Calcium superphosphate)
