  2. Polydiacetylenes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polydiacetylenes

    Synthesis of polydiacetylenes occurs through topochemical polymerization of 1,3-diynes. Typically, this must occur in the solid state, because many diynes undergo both 1,2 and 1,4 polymerization in solution – such is the case with diiodobutadiyne, [4] and other diynes with electron withdrawing substituents. The ideal arrangement of diynes in ...

    The Palm TX. A personal digital assistant (PDA) is a multi-purpose mobile device which functions as a personal information manager. Following a boom in the 1990s and 2000s, PDAs were mostly displaced by the widespread adoption of more highly capable smartphones, in particular those based on iOS and Android in the late 2000s, and thus saw a rapid decline.

    [11] [12] A stack automaton is called nonerasing if it never pops from the stack. The class of languages accepted by nondeterministic, nonerasing stack automata is NSPACE(n 2), which is a superset of the context-sensitive languages. [1] The class of languages accepted by deterministic, nonerasing stack automata is DSPACE(n⋅log(n)). [1]

    Patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) is a medical condition in which the ductus arteriosus fails to close after birth: this allows a portion of oxygenated blood from the left heart to flow back to the lungs from the aorta, which has a higher blood pressure, to the pulmonary artery, which has a lower blood pressure.
