Scattering, inelastic: Electron
(2024)Encyclopedia of Condensed Matter PhysicsAn interaction event between an electron and a target material is called inelastic if the electron loses some or all of its energy. The general theory of the inelastic scattering cross-section is first developed before being specialized to interband transitions, plasmon excitations, vibrations at surfaces, core-electron excitations, and (e−, 2e−) scattering. Examples are provided to illustrate how the elementary excitations of each method ...Encyclopedia Entry -

Irregular Migration and the City
(2023)Oxford Bibliographies Online: Urban StudiesIrregular migrants tend to live in cities. Cities offer to irregular migrants anonymity, opportunities to find a job and other ways to make a living, different forms of accommodation, and access to potentially existing relational, ethnic, social, or cultural networks. Irregular migration can therefore also be understood as an urban phenomenon. The urban aspects of irregular migration are the focus of this bibliography. We discuss the ...Encyclopedia Entry -

The History of Higher Landscape Architecture Education at ETH Zurich, Switzerland
(2023)The Routledge Handbook of Landscape Architecture EducationThis chapter traces the history of landscape architecture education at the ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology) where the Department of Architecture started to offer a two-year degree programme leading to a Master of Science in Landscape Architecture. It is after decades of effort that landscape architecture was established as an independent post-graduate programme at a Swiss university. The subject initially developed into ...Encyclopedia Entry -
Cell Biology of Virus Infection
(2023)Encyclopedia of Cell Biology Second EditionViruses are infectious agents that multiply by entering live cells and using the biosynthetic machinery and other services of the host cells to produce new virus particles. Because they themselves have no metabolism, motility, or other complex functions associated with cell life, they can be extremely small and their structure can be simple. However from initial cell entry to release of progeny virus, they are entirely dependent on ...Encyclopedia Entry -
Surface organometallic and coordination chemistry approach to formation of single site heterogeneous catalysts
(2023)Comprehensive Inorganic Chemistry III (Third Edition). Volume 6: Heterogeneous Inorganic CatalysisSurface Organometallic Chemistry (SOMC), an approach to generate molecularly defined surface sites on solids, has opened possibilities to understand heterogeneous catalysis with atomic-level precision. Treating the surface of traditional supports as defined (albeit complex) ligands and applying the rules of molecular inorganic chemistry allowed for formation of countless examples of well-defined surface moieties, some of which were shown ...Encyclopedia Entry -
Eukaryotic Ribosome Assembly, Quality Control and Export
(2023)Encyclopedia of Cell Biology Second EditionEukaryotic ribosome assembly spans three cellular compartments and requires the concerted action of three RNA polymerases, the splicing and nucleocytoplasmic transport machinery. This process also requires >200 transiently interacting factors including a range of energy-consuming enzymes and RNA-binding scaffolds, that perform both assembly and proofreading functions. Although the detailed mechanisms of ribosome formation have not yet ...Encyclopedia Entry -
Iodine: Deficiency disorders and prevention programs
(2023)Encyclopedia of Human Nutrition (Fourth Edtion). Volume 1: The Foundations of Human NutritionIodine is an essential component of hormones produced by the thyroid gland. Thyroid hormones, and therefore iodine, are essential for mammalian life. Optimal dietary iodine intakes for healthy adults are 150–250μgday−1. Iodine deficiency has multiple adverse effects in humans due to inadequate thyroid hormone production that are termed as iodine deficiency disorders. Assessment methods of iodine status include urinary iodine concentration, ...Encyclopedia Entry
