Abstract The contrasting hydraulic properties of wheat (Triticum aestivum), narrow-leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius), and yellow luteus) roots were identified by integrating measurements water flow across different structural levels organization with anatomy modeling. Anatomy played a major role in root hydraulics, influencing axial conductance (L ax) the distribution uptake along root, more localized for aquaporins (AQPs). Lupin had greater L ax than roots, due to xylem development. r)...
The 584 Å (21·22 eV) photoelectron, spectra of the following linear unsaturated molecules are reported: acetylene, dideutero-acetylene, hydrogen cyanide, deuterium diacetylene, dideutero-diacetylene, cyanoacetylene, cyanogen, dicyanoacetylene, methylacetylene and dimethyltriacetylene. ionization potentials molecules, vibrational fine structure observed in many bands, discussed.
Helium 584 Å radiation produces photoeleetron spectra from water and deuterium oxide, which show extensive vibrational fine structure. The results are discussed in terms of the electronic structure molecule, bonding characteristics various molecular orbitals. Water is inferred to have only three configurationally distinct ionization potentials smaller than 21.22 eV.

The photoelectron spectra excited by 21.21-eV photons in argon, krypton, xenon, hydrogen, nitrogen, carbon monoxide, oxygen, and nitric oxide have been re-examined using a 180° magnetic-field electron velocity analyzer. In favorable cases peaks corresponding to vibrational levels the resulting positive ion are completely resolved giving directly Franck—Condon factors. Where not fully resolved, relative order of intensities is apparent comparison made with calculations Vibrational structure...
