EFFECTIVE CHIRAL INTERACTIONS BETWEEN NONCHIRAL RIGID MACROMOLECULES IN A CHIRAL SOLVENT AND THE INDUCED CHOLESTERIC LIQUID CRYSTAL PHASE

Effective Chiral Interactions between Nonchiral Rigid Macromolecules in a Chiral Solvent and the Induced Cholesteric Liquid Crystal Phase

It has been shown that a nonchiral anisotropic macromolecule embedded in a chiral dielectric solvent possesses an effective optical activity proportional to the optical activity of the solvent.As a result, there exists an effective chiral interaction between the macromolecules, which creates a torque acting on the primary axes of the two diamond pa

To burn or not to burn? Effect of management strategy on North American prairie vegetation for public urban areas in Germany.

North American prairie vegetation has been a role model for designing highly attractive plantings for German urban green spaces for the past decade.In combination with gravel mulch top layers on planting sites and non-selective maintenance techniques like mowing or burning, prairie plantings are considered to be cost-effective and low-maintenance.T
