The accurate determination of the structure of molecular systems provides information about the consequences of weak interactions both within and between molecules. These consequences impact the properties of the materials and the behaviour in interactions with other substances. The book presents modern experimental and computational techniques for the determination of molecular structure. It also highlights applications ranging from the simplest molecules to DNA and industrially significant materials. Readership: Graduate students and researchers in structural chemistry, computational chemistry, molecular spectroscopy, crystallography, supramolecular chemistry, solid state chemistry and physics, and materials science.
Magnetic resonance techniques are especially interesting in the study of colloids and interfaces due to their unique ability to elucidate structure, dynamics and function at the atomic and molecular level. This book illustrates the most up to date applications of innovative NMR and EPR techniques, including magnetic resonance imaging and microscopy, to gas-solid and liquid-solid interfaces, organic and biological surfaces, microemulsions, liquid crystals, membranes, structure and dynamics of polymers and micellar systems, and diffusion in heterogeneous systems. A compendium of advanced NMR and EPR techniques and a state of the art description of the power of advanced new methodologies for the study of molecular dynamics and interfaces.
The main aim of this book is to provide a complete picture of current research on phosphazene compounds carried out around the world. The book opens with a general introduction, then moves on to cover synthetic aspects of phosphazene polymers, their characterization in solution and from the theoretical, thermal, and mechanical points of view; application aspects of poly(organophosphazenes); and the synthesis, characterization, and practical utilization of cyclophosphazenes. There is particular focus on the use of cyclophosphazenes as hydraulic fluids and additives, as cores for star polymers or dendrimers, and as starting substrates for supramolecular chemistry and nanostructured materials. The spectroscopic characterization of these compounds by NMR and Raman techniques is also discussed. Annotation : 2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com).
Providing the first comprehensive book on the current state of hyperpolarized Xenon-129 NMR and MRI, this book is guaranteed to appeal to a wide range of scientists interested in this growing field. It is intended to create synergy between the various communities working with this noble gas. Covering all topics from the production of the hyperpolarized gas to its applications, the editors have invited a leading team of experts to combine the physical chemistry within the various topics and across disciplines. The scope will range from the fundamental aspects of optical pumping to practical aspects of hyperpolarizers and hp-xenon handling. The applications section will focus on hyperpolarized xenon-129 detected in the dissolved phase or micro porous media where the chemical shift of xenon-129 can be used as a diagnostic probe. Appealing to researchers in the biomedical field and materials sciences, this reference book will provide background reading and future looking material in one place.
Gleria (National Research Council, Italy) and De Jaeger (chemistry, University of Sciences and Technologies, France) present work on applications of cyclophosphazenes and on the spectroscopic properties of both linear and cyclic phosphazene derivatives. Some applications described include polymer mesophases and nanostructured materials based on phosphazenes, Raman spectra of short linear and cyclic molecular oligomers and of polymeric chlorophosphazenes, and crown ether bearing phosphazenes. Other subjects presented include star polymers with cyclotriphosphazene cores, and construction and functionality of supramolecules based on cyclotriphosphazenes.

Marion Minerbo nos brinda com novos diálogos com AnaLisa, em que conduz reflexões sobre temas fundamentais para a prática da psicanálise hoje. Dois eixos percorrem os sete capítulos: ela toma radicalmente em consideração a noção de intersubjetividade; os temas são trabalhados tendo como pressuposto dois sujeitos em relação, em afetação recíproca. E trabalha o tempo todo com a teoria encarnada na clínica. Escrito numa linguagem leve e acessível, o livro certamente será um sucesso e interessará tanto psicanalistas formados quanto estudantes de Psicologia, Psiquiatria e Psicanálise.

Inspirada no diário de viagens de Mario de Andrade pelo norte e nordeste do Brasil, Maíra Soares Ferreira apresenta em seu novo livro, A rima na escola, o verso na história, a luta pela preservação da cultura popular afro-indígena e sertaneja e sua transmissão às novas gerações, em comunidades como a da favela do Real Parque, na capital paulista, formada por migrantes descendentes da aldeia Pankararu (PE). Este livro resultou de sua pesquisa-intervenção em torno da criação poética, desenvolvida em sala de aula com professores e alunos do 8o ano do ensino fundamental. A obra, ganhadora do prêmio Patativa do Assaré (MinC, 2010), rastreia o processo de subjetivação de um cole...
