Synthesis, properties and applications of chalcogen-containing antioxidants

In the first part, the preparation and properties of chalcogen-containing vitamin E analogues are described. The sulfur compound 3,3,4,6,7-pentamethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzo[b]thiophene-5-ol was prepared by two different routes using ionic… Contents 1.

Infaunal Effects on Permeable Sediment Processes

The role of infauna on permeable sediment processes is poorly understood due to methodological limitations and a lack of empirical data. The interactions among porewater flows, sediments, and biogenic structures present a physically and … Contents Chapter 1: Executive Summary: Infaunal Effects

Field Theories and Vortices with Nontrivial Geometry

This thesis investigates aspects of field theories and soliton solutions with nontrivial topology. In particular we explore the following effective models: a limited sector of the scalar Electroweak theory called extended Abelian Higgs model, and a classical mechanics model derived from the
