Thermochemistry of cis trans isomerization in MCl2L2(PPh3)2, M=Ru, Os; L=CO, CNCH2SO2‐p‐tolyl.

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, EarlyView.
Solid state thermal isomerization of key Ru(II) and Os(II) chlorocarbonylphosphine complexes allows for DSC determination of the thermodynamics and kinetics for these fundamental isomerization reactions. Abstract Ten neutral dichlorobistriphenylphosphine complexes of ruthenium(II) and osmium(II) with two π‐accepting ligands, CO or CNCH2SO2‐p‐tolyl ...

Policing Corruption or Corrupted Policing? Social Norms and Policing in Ghana

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 440-456, April 2025.
ABSTRACT This article is a qualitative study of the relationship between social norms and corrupt behaviour in the Ghana Police Service. Although there is a growing body of literature exploring this nexus in very different settings, relatively less attention has been given to understanding the extent of the normative influence of social norms over ...

Outsourcing Corruption: The Role of Fate Beliefs and Motivated Fate Attributions in Delegating Decisions About Corrupt Behaviour

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Social Psychology, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 457-471, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Corruption often involves collective actions rather than clandestine individual efforts. It is also socially facilitated via tacit complicity influenced by norms and beliefs. Five studies examine the delegation of decisions about corrupt behaviour as a social form of corruption and the role of attributing outcomes of delegated corrupt ...

Dielectrophoresis Tutorial: Inspired by Hatfield's 1924 Patent and Boltzmann's Theory and Experiments of 1874

open access: yesELECTROPHORESIS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The first patent to describe dielectrophoresis (DEP) as a means and process to separate particles from a mixture was granted by the US Patent Office to Henry Stafford Hatfield in 1924. The novel methods of sample preparation and designs of electrode geometry covered by the patent's disclosures and claims describe the basis for most present‐day

Evaluating the sensitivity of surrogate optimization target properties characterizing droplet formation, evaporation, and chemical reactions to biodiesel composition reduction

open access: yesEnvironmental Progress &Sustainable Energy, EarlyView.
Abstract Liquid fuels contain a large number of components. However, it is not computationally feasible to implement the detailed composition into numerical solvers in combustion chamber design. Surrogate mixtures are used to facilitate calculations, which can reproduce the fuel characteristics with fewer components providing reasonable accuracy ...

Reasoning in Evaluation: Why Does It Matter?

open access: yesNew Directions for Evaluation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article addresses two significant philosophical debates of importance to the evaluation context, which have transcended science and social sciences for centuries. These debates center around philosophical approaches and approaches to reasoning as they relate to evaluation.
