This brief explains the theory of the interaction-induced electrical properties of van der Waals complexes. It focuses on the interaction-induced electrical dipole moments, polarizabilities and first hyperpolarizabilities of atom-atomic, atom-molecular and molecular-molecular van der Waals complexes.
We all use euphemisms every day. We speak of "full-figured" women. We "fudge" on our income tax. We step lively to avoid "horse apples"--and step even livelier in the grip of the "Aztec Two-step." We say that the dead have "bit the dust" or have been "promoted to glory." Now, in A Dictionary of Euphemisms, Revised Edition, R. W. Holder gives us an engaging volume that celebrates this human tendency to use mild, vague or roundabout expressions rather than those which are blunt, precise, and disagreeably true. Here are thousands of entertaining and informative entries that range from long-established circumlocutions such as "everlasting life," "the Grim Reaper," "powder room," and "house of il...
This book presents the latest trends and challenges in the development of general engineering and mechanical engineering in the agriculture and horticulture sectors.
For each sea, presents the physical geography, biology, ecology, and exotic species: plants, invertebrates, fishes.

This book discusses the effect of the excitation of rotational, vibrational, and electronic degrees of freedom on the basic electrical properties of molecules and, as a consequence, on molecular optical and transport properties together with reactivity. It additionally summarizes the theory and practice of calculating state-specific electric and optical properties based on ab initio quantum chemical calculations. The book offers a clear, up-to-date review and is primarily intended for actively working researchers, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates who are interested in the electric and related properties of the electronically, rotationally, and vibrationally excited molecules.
