VIBRATIONAL SPECTROSCOPIES IN LIQUID WATER: ON TEMPERATURE AND COORDINATION EFFECTS IN RAMAN AND INFRARED SPECTROSCOPIES

Vibrational spectroscopies in liquid water: on temperature and coordination effects in Raman and infrared spectroscopies

Water is an ubiquitous liquid that has several exotic and anomalous properties.Despite its apparent simple chemical formula, its capability of forming a dynamic network of hydrogen bonds here leads to a rich variety of physics.Here we study the vibrations of water using molecular dynamics simulations, mainly concentrating on the Raman and infrared

The Berlin Mission Society and German linguistic roots of volkekunde: The background, training and Hamburg writings of Werner Eiselen, 1899-1924

This article presents a case for the centrality of race and racism in the training and early ethnographic writings of Werner Eiselen (1899-1977).Together with further discussion in two other articles, it demonstrates that Eiselen was not the consolidator of the British functionalist anthropological tradition in South Africa nor a strong affiliate o
