Magnetic properties of Mg₁-xZnxFe₂O₄ nanoferrites and tetracycline-ferrite nanocomposites.
(2013)Abstract available in print copy. -
Maize (Zea mays L.) seed quality in response to simulated hail damage.
(2015)Maize (Zea mays L.) is the most important cereal grain crop produced in various environments throughout South Africa. Maize is vulnerable to hail damage because it can reduce crop yield or may result in complete yield and ... -
Mapping of magnetospheric electric fields from Cluster into ionospheric convection from SuperDARN using the Tsyganenko field model.
(2010)The data from Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) radar and Cluster was used to investigate whether the processes observed by SuperDARN radar in the highlatitude ionosphere leads to the processes that take place ... -
Mass spectrometry characterisation of laser produced products.
(1999)Mass spectrometers are analytical instruments that convert neutral atoms and molecules into gaseous ions and separate those ions according to the ratio of their mass to charge, m/z. The measurement is reported as a ... -
Measure-preserving and time-reversible integration algorithms for constant temperature molecular dynamics.
(2011)This thesis concerns the formulation of integration algorithms for non-Hamiltonian molecular dynamics simulation at constant temperature. In particular, the constant temperature dynamics of the Nosé-Hoover, Nosé-Hoover ... -
Measurement and computational modelling of intermolecular interactions in fluids.
(2000)The molecular theory of the second light-scattering virial coefficient Bp describing the effects of interacting pairs of molecules on the depolarization ratio p of Rayleigh-scattered light is reviewed, both for interacting ... -
Measurement and modelling of the directional scattering of light.
(2015)The quantum nature of light suggests that a photon can interact with matter in two primary ways. Firstly and perhaps more simply, the photon could be absorbed or secondly and more complex, it could be scattered into a ... -
Measurement and validation of waterlines and surface currents using surf-zone video imaging.
(2001)The continuous monitoring of beaches and structures near, or in the surf-zone, has become a vital task from an environmental and economic standpoint. Specifically, the Durban beaches are continually nourished with sand ... -
The measurement of electric quadrupole moments of gas molecules by induced birefringence.
(1993)Determining the electric quadrupole moments of gas molecules from measurements of birefringence induced in the gas by an applied electric field gradient is widely recognised as being the most direct experimental technique ... -
Measurement of soil in sugar cane using non-destructive techniques.
(2001)The soil being delivered with sugar cane consignments. from the cane fields to the factories, has been a recent cause for concern in the South African sugar industry. The soil impurities increase the wear of processing ... -
Measurement of the Kerr electro-optic effect by induced birefringence.
(2005)During the period January 2001 to January 2003, M Sc student Mr Tleyane Jonas Sono developed an apparatus to measure the pressure- and temperature-dependence of the electro-optic Kerr effect (electric-field-induced ... -
Measurement of the temperature dependence of the Buckingham effect (electric-field-gradient-induced birefringence) in gases
(2009)The aim of this research project was to assemble an apparatus to measure the electric quadrupole moments of gas molecules using the technique of electricfield- gradient-induced birefringence, or the Buckingham effect. ... -
The mechanism of the selective inotropic and hypotensive effects of triterpenoids of plant origin.
(2004)Abstract available in PDF file. -
Mesosphere-lower thermosphere planetary and tidal waves structure over the southern hemisphere using SANAE and Halley SuperDARN HF radar.
(2015)Abstract available in PDF file. -
Metal catalysed cross-coupling reactions of nitrogen and fluorine containing heterocyclic compounds.

Metal powder production by pyrolysis of metal oxalates and carbonyl clusters.
(2001)Chapter One serves as an introduction to, and background information, on the thermal decomposition of metal oxalates and homonucleus carbonyl clusters. Emphasis is placed on the compounds under investigation, namely the ...
