    To facilitate an accurate description of the localized d and f electrons in the solids, the self interaction correction is introduced. Within the LSDA, the spurious self-interaction tends to underestimate their localization. In SIC-LDA formalism, the localized electrons see a potential (SIC potential) different from that of the delocalized ones for which the self-interaction vanishes and whose potential therefore reduces to that of the LSDA. It is known that self-interaction is important only…

    Chapter-III OPERATING PRINIPLE AND LOSSES IN PEM FUEL CELL The polymer membrane is the heart of the PEM fuel cell which has some unique features. It allows protons but it is impermeable to gases, and hence it is known as a Proton Exchange Membrane. The membrane, which is squeezed between two electrodes (electrically conductive carbon cloths or carbon fiber papers) acts as electrolyte. A layer of catalyst particles (platinum) is placed at the interface between the porous electrode and polymer…

    Atoms What is so tiny that you cannot see with the naked eye, but despite their size are extremely important? Atoms are! Atoms are so important. Atoms are the building blocks of the world. They are in everything. Millions of little atoms join together to create the world and everything in it. They can also be used for other purposes not naturally, such as an atomic bomb. Atoms are critical to our survival at a whole. The history of the atom dates back to ancient times. Ancient…

    One of the most important scientific discoveries is that of the atom. The Atom is the smallest unit of matter. “Atoms are mostly empty space” (OI/ https://www.thoughtco.com/interesting-facts-about-atoms-603817). It makes up all the four elements. “There are over 100 different kinds of atoms ”(OI/https://www.thoughtco.com/interesting-facts-about-atoms-603817).Over time the theories about the atom have changed a lot, moving from simple to complex. Before 1900, scientists made several…

    In his childhood because of the way that his parents were he had the opportunity to have good education and took advantage of it. The effortlessness of a science book he got when he was ten may have been what inspired him and what nourished his longing for to learn more. His best subjects were always math and physics. I believe that the support Ernest got for intellectual growth was from his parents is the thing that contributed the most to his study of the atom, and other later accomplishments.…

    “No,” he answers. “They use them. Force them to build weapons and other junk…” He pauses, stepping around me. “What’re you doing? The power core’s blown.” “It’s not,” I whisper, eyes never leaving the weapon. “What?” I snap the tiny casing back on with a pop. “Said it’s not. It’s old and a bit slow, still works though. All it needed was a few wires switched and the core lineament adjusted.” I flip the switch on and the laser gun lights up, a soft purring tingling my palm. I aim at the wall and…

    these experiments Thomson used a Cathode Ray Tube and a magnet, he placed the negative end of the magnet near the beam, and took note that when the negative end approached it, the beam deflected away. This experiment proved that there were different charges. Rutherford also employed important experiments, such as the gold foil experiment. In this experiment Rutherford shot particles at a piece of gold foil and noticed that while most of the particles passed through the foil there were some that…

    Chemical changes are everywhere from everyday things such as baking to scientific things such as changing one gas into another. Physical changes are changes that can be observed with senses and change a certain property or properties to a substance but it still remains chemically the same. This can include changes in the state of matter, size and shape. Chemical changes are when the substance is changed chemically with its properties changing with it. The substance with change from one substance…

    “Steel plates are commonly attached to each other with rivets, which are slipped into holes in the plates and rounded over with hammers. The hotness of the rivets makes them easier to round over, but their hotness has another important advantage in providing a tight fit. What is it? Explain why.” This relates to one of the characteristics of heat, in that heated objects expand, then contract when the temperature decreases, since the molecules move faster in heat and slow in the cold. The hot…
