The phase selection of hyper-peritectic Al-47wt.%Ni alloy solidified under different pressures was investigated. The results show that Al3Ni2 and Al3Ni phases coexist at ambient pressure, while another new phase α-Al exists simultaneously when solidified at high pressure. Based on the competitive growth theory of dendrite, a kinetic stabilization of metastable peritectic phases with respect to stable ones is predicted for different solidification pressures. It demonstrates that Al3Ni2 phase nucleates and grows directly from the undercooled liquid. Meanwhile, the Debye temperatures of Al-47wt.%Ni alloy that fabricated at different pressures were also calculated using the low temperature heat capacity curve.

How does surveillance shape political science research in the United States? In comparative and international politics, there is a rich literature concerning the conduct of research amid conditions of conflict and state repression. As this literature locates “the field” in distant contexts “over there,” the United States continues to be saturated with various forms of state control. What this portends for American politics research has thus far been examined by a limited selection of scholars. Expanding on their insights, I situate “the field” in the United States and examine surveillance of American Muslims, an understudied case of racialized state control. Drawing on qualitative data from a case study of sixty-nine interviews with Arab and Black American Muslims, I argue that surveillance operated as a two-stage political mechanism that mapped onto research methodologically and substantively. In the first stage, surveillance reconfigured the researcher-researchee dynamic, hindered recruitment and access, and limited data-collection. In the second stage, surveillance colored the self-perceptions, political attitudes, and civic engagement of respondents, thereby indicating a political socialization unfolding among Muslims. The implications of this study suggest that researchers can mitigate against some, but not all, of the challenges presented by surveillance and concomitant forms of state control.

The new compounds, K6Mo3IICl12; (NH4)7Mo3IICl13.H2O; and Cs6Mo4Cl16 (containing molybdenum in oxidation state +2.5) have been precipitated by the appropriate cation from solutions of molybdenum(II) acetate in 12M hydrochloric acid. The absorption spectra of potassium and ammonium salts are similar in the solid state and solution. Since the compounds are strong reducing agents and short-lived in solution, their formulation as a staphylonuclear (i.e. metal-clustered) trimer or tetramer rests on their diamagnetism, stoicheiometry, and spectral similarities. It is proposed that the chloromolybdates adopt entirely novel, compact polymers by stacking the chlorine atoms into "close packed" layers. The Mo3Cl13 group consists of two layers of chlorine atoms (seven and six) generating three octahedral locations for the molybdenum atoms at the corners of a regular triangle. The Mo3Cl12 group is similar but deficient in one chlorine atom. The Mo4Cl16 group is related to Mo3Cl13 and consists of three layers of chlorine atoms (seven, six, and three) providing four octahedral locations for the molybdenum atoms at the corners of a tetrahedron.

This paper deals with the problem of selection the most suitable trip-modelling tool (TMT), which is a part of the more complex integrated transport planning system (ITPS) at the regional scale. Since an application of TMT is not autonomous and several different users exist the selection problem is not a trivial. In this paper, an original five-phase selection procedure is presented. The first phase consists in specifica¬tion of both, detailed expectations of all identified users and technical requirements of ITPS. Second phase deals with research on available TMT while a third one is concentrated on defining a comprehensive set of criteria. In this phase critical criteria as well as selection criteria are defined. First one is utilised to eliminate unacceptable TMTs in phase four and second one to evaluate and select most adequate TMT in phase five. In the paper an exemplary application of this procedure is presented. The authors have defined 2 critical criteria and a set of 19 selection criteria. The last one is divided into 3 main subsets, i.e. functional, technical and financial contexts of selection process. All the selection criteria are characterised by 43 sub-criteria and some of them are more detailed extended. Using this procedure 3 out of 6 alternative TMTs including Emme, Aimsun and Visum have been initially accepted and next evaluated. Finally, Visum has been selected and recommended for application into ITPS.

In the past, efficacy, as defined by controlled clinical trials, was the primary factor in the selection of a particular antibiotic regimen. Today, as the number of antimicrobial agents approved for clinical use has grown almost exponentially, efficacy rarely is emphasized in published clinical trials. More commonly they demonstrate therapeutic equivalence rather than superiority of new compounds to previously accepted regimens. For this reason, the two criteria that now factor most prominently into the selection of equally effective antibiotics are relative toxicity and cost. Three major classes of antibiotics used throughout the world in the treatment of serious pediatric infectious diseases are chloramphenicol (CAP) and its derivatives, aminoglycosides (AGs), and vancomycin and related glycopeptides.
