For decades, political influence in this country has been a direct function of a politician's ability to borrow and spend, with local banks, as the main buyers of Greek government bonds, acting as the primary facilitators.
The dispersion forces, for a set of materials in close proximity, arise from the electronic structure of the materials wherein the electrons in interatomic bonds acting as oscillating dipoles exhibit an attractive interaction energy.
This study is significant, because it links pathogenic bacteria biofilms from the length scale of bonds acting across a nanometer-scale space to the clinical presentation of disease at the human dimension.
In this respect, the passivation of silicon- and nitrogen-dangling bonds acting as non-radiative recombination centers is an essential requirement for increasing the radiative yield without affecting the emission mechanism.
Unlike females, in a group, males actually maintain close bonds, acting together in defense of their group and even in grooming each other.
Furthermore, 75 significantly regulated proteins were mapped to 21 molecular functions (see Figure 4C) and included arginase activity, fructose-bisphosphate aldolase activity, hydrolase and oxidoreductase activity, acting on carbon-nitrogen (but not peptide) bonds, acting on aldehyde, CH-OH group or oxo group of donors, NAD or NADP as acceptor as well as steroid dehydrogenase activity.
The 48-year-old actor is now cinema's second longest-serving James Bond, acting in four Bond films.
The firm became the leading "inter-dealer broker" in the government-bond market, acting as middleman in bond trades between big securities firms.
When real trouble is brewing, as has been the case since the summer of 1997 in Asia, bond traders acting ahead of the Fed can mask some of the peril.
Agostic interactions are identified by a short M∙∙∙HC distance; these occur not primarily because the C H bond is acting as a base, but because the tilt of the CH3 group allows the σCH3 orbital to pick up an additional stabilising interaction from a different lower energy d-orbital.
