Springer.Com ABCD springer.com Springer NEWS SEPTEMBER 2007 ABCD springer.com A comprehensive, alphabetical treatment of basic soil science in a single volume! Encyclopedia of Soil Science Ward Chesworth, University of Guelph, ON, Canada (Ed.) 7 Assembles more than 190 key articles by leading authorities from around the world and ca. 430 glossary terms to become the most complete single volume encyclopedia on soil science 7 Includes the following Classifi cations of Soils: FAO; Soil Taxonomy; World Reference Base Employs an Earth-Science approach 7 Packed with full-color illustrations and off ers excellent indices and cross references Soils long have been taken for granted being so commonplace and lacking often striking features. However, soil is one of the most complex media on Earth, vital for the biogeosphere and human civilization. With increased usage of soil for world food production, building materials, waste repositories, etc awareness has grown for the need of better global understanding of soil and its processes. The Encyclopedia of Soil Science provides a comprehensive, alphabetical treatment of basic soil science in a single volume. It constitutes a wide ranging and authorative collection of about 160 academic articles covering the salient aspects of soil physics, chemistry, biology, fertility, technology, genesis, morphology, classifi cation and geomorphology. The longer articles by leading authorities from around the world are being supplemented by ca 430 defi nitions of common terms in soil sciences. It should be emphasized though that the volume is not a dictionary but represents a compendium of knowledge. Graduate students, scientists and professionals, from a wide variety of disciplines and others who deal with the nature, processes and use of soil will have access to essential information and be directed to pertinent specialized literature.

    G LENN T. S E A B O R G The transuranium elements: present status Nobel Lecture, December 12, 1951 Mina Damer och Herrar. Jag är inte van vid kemiska ord svenska, och det är för att mina föräl- drar aldrig talade kemi i hemmet. Jag skulle gärna ända velat hela denna föreläsning svenska. Men - om jag talade svenska skulle mina vänner McMillan och Lawrence inte förstå mer än hälften av vad jag säger. Jag ska därför tala engelska, och jag vet att ni alla förstår det mycket bra. As I continue, speaking in English, I want to assure my British and Ameri- can colleagues here, Sir John Cockcroft and Professors Walton, Lawrence, and McMillan, that they haven’t missed anything yet. I want to begin by saying that I am fortunate in being a member of a Chemistry Department which has a long standing tradition of great breadth of research interests, leading to an early program in nuclear chemistry under the active leadership of men like G. N. Lewis and W. M. Latimer. The work on the transuranium elements which I am about to describe was made possible by this circum- stance and because of the unusual and excellent spirit of cooperation which exists at the Radiation Laboratory, under the direction of Professor E. O. Lawrence, where the cyclotron bombardments so crucial to the final results were made. I shall try in the course of my lecture to point out the contribu- tions to this work of my many colleagues but unfortunately it will not be possible to do this adequately in the time available.

  • Group Theoretical Description of Mendeleev Periodic System
    Group Theoretical Description of Mendeleev Periodic System V. V. Varlamov∗ Abstract The group theoretical description of the periodic system of elements in the framework of the Rumer-Fet model is considered. We introduce the concept of a single quantum system, the generating core of which is an abstract C∗-algebra. It is shown that various concrete implementations of the operator algebra depend on the structure of generators of the fun- damental symmetry group attached to the energy operator. In the case of generators of the complex shell of a group algebra of a conformal group, the spectrum of states of a single quantum system is given in the framework of the basic representation of the Rumer-Fet group, which leads to a group-theoretic interpretation of the Mendeleev's periodic system of elements. A mass formula is introduced that allows to give the termwise mass splitting for the main multiplet of the Rumer-Fet group. The masses of elements of the Seaborg table (eight-periodic extension of the Mendeleev table) are calculated starting from the atomic number Z = 121 to Z = 220. The continuation of Seaborg homology between lanthanides and actinides is established to the group of superactinides. A 10-periodic extension of the periodic table is introduced in the framework of the group-theoretic approach. The multiplet structure of the extended table periods is considered in detail. It is shown that the period lengths of the system of elements are determined by the structure of the basic representation of the Rumer-Fet group. The theoretical masses of the elements of 10th and 11th periods are calculated starting from Z = 221 to Z = 364.
