Magnetic impurities in the one-dimensional spin-orbital model

open access: yes, 2000
Using one-dimensional spin-orbital model as a typical example of quantum spin systems with richer symmetries, we study the effect of an isolated impurity on its low energy dynamics in the gapless phase through bosonization and renormalization group ...

Effect of Azotobacter on fixed nitrogen

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta, 1956
The rate of uptake of nitrite and nitrate by A. vinelandii has been measured; at the same time, the rate of formation and disappearance of ammonia (in the case of nitrite) and of both nitrite and ammonia (in the case of nitrate) have been determined.
