Archives of messages from SCI.CHEM.ELECTROCHEM/ELETQM-L ******************************************************************************** Newsgroup messages are typically not archived by NETNEWS. However, old messages that appeared on SCI.CHEM.ELECTROCHEM/ELETQM-L are available from two sources if you ever have the need for them. (3.1) They can be retrieved by anonymous ftp to sol.dmp.csiro.au:/pub/electrochem (192.68.132.2) The archived files are in an e-mail format. (All you have to do is use your e-mail program to treat the file as a folder. Then every article will be treated as a separate message). Included is a list of articles in chronological order. This is only a manual archive, so a couple of articles may be missing. Especially if the people crossposted the articles. If you have any problems using "ftp" contact your system manager or librarian for assistance. Following is an example of how to do a typical anonymous ftp session. Though graphical ftp software makes this much easier. ftp sol.dmp.csiro.au (makes the connection) user anonymous (when it asks for password, enter your e-mail address) cd/pub/electrochem (selects the required directory) ls (or dir) (gets a list of files) ascii (sets file transfer in ascii mode) (for some files the transfer mode needs to be set: binary ) get "filename" (i.e., : get archive.txt.12jul94, or get list.of.articles) (for local filename, give your choice of name for the file to be transferred) successful file transfer will be indicated bye (exit ftp) (the file should now be in your current directory under your chosen name) ******************************************************************************** The ftp archival service is courtesy of Lachlan M. D. Cranswick, CSIRO, Australia. With problems/questions contact: LACHLAN@DMP.CSIRO.AU ******************************************************************************** (3.2) All messages are archived on ELETQM-L e-mail list. (Starting with June of 1994.) (3.2.a) You must be a subscriber of ELETQM-L to retrieve old messages (see subscription/unsubscription and other information in Section (2.) ) (3.2.b) To obtain a listing of all available monthly archival files, send the e-mail message to LISTSERV@BRUFU.BITNET : INDEX ELETQM-L (3.2.c) To obtain any of the files, send the e-mail message to LISTSERV : GET ELETQM-L LOGXXXX (3.2.d) The archived messages of ELETQM-L can be searched using listserv database functions. To obtain an introductory description about this service, send the e-mail message to LISTSERV : GET LISTDB MEMO ******************************************************************************** The ELETQM-L archival service is courtesy of Otavio L.

Reading the newsgroup via GOPHER and posting via E-Mail. ******************************************************************************** (4.1) Reading via GOPHER HINTS: Use the bookmark option of your gopher to enable you to go directly to the relevant menu item. In the UNIX generic gopher, before the "electrochem" menu option, type "a" and fill in the name. To now revisit the electrochem area, all you have to do is type "v" (view) and all you bookmarks will appear. Pick the electrochem bookmark you typed in previously. ******************************************************************************** There are three gopher servers listed here that can handle reading of newsgroups via gopher: (more additions welcome) Los Alamos National Laboratory Gopher (was very fast and extremely up to date) gopher gopher.lanl.gov or (gopher 128.165.3.1) 18. Network News (USENET)/ 2.

As using the "alias" facility of your email program can make posting via email a very easy procedure. If your email program does not support this "alias" option: a) Consider changing to a "better" email program such as the public domain (i.e., free) "pine" software which is available for UNIX, DOS and Mac. This program is very user friendly and powerful (to obtain binaries, anonymous ftp to ftp.cac.washington.edu:/pine (140.142.100.6:/pine). (there are other programs around - e.g., Wintrumpet (MS-Windows), Eudora (Mac and MS-Windows), etc). b) Email the old fashioned way to to submit your message or article. ******************************************************************************** The instructions for GOPHER reading and posting through E-Mail are courtesy of Lachlan M.

It should be of interest to chemists, chemical engineers and mathematicians at all levels of expertise (ranging from undergraduates to those engaged in very advanced research). The program consists of two parts, ChemLab and Network Analyst, that "talk to each other". ChemLab is the part of CRNT that will probably be of interest to most users. ChemLab is essentially a simulation environment. In response to a user-specified network of chemical reactions (and a user-specified assignment of rate constants), ChemLab will generate the appropriate (isothermal mass action) system of ordinary differential equations governing the species concentrations. In response to user-specified initial conditions, ChemLab will solve the differential equations and display the results in a variety of numerical and graphical formats. In particular, ChemLab will plot species concentrations vs. time and will draw two- and three-dimensional composition trajectories. ChemLab will also draw several trajectories simultaneously so that you can see two- and three-dimensional phase portraits. Network Analyst, on the other hand, is somewhat more advanced. It implements certain results in chemical reaction network theory. Chemical reaction network theory deals with the relationship between reaction network structure and qualitative properties of the corresponding differential equations. For example, in response to a user-specified reaction network, Network Analyst will try to determine if there can be rate constants such that the resulting differential equations admit composition oscillations, an unstable steady state, multiple steady states, a degenerate steady state (i.e., one with a zero eigenvalue), and so on. CRNT comes with an on-screen tutorial and a help system that get you up and running pretty quickly. CRNT is available through anonymous ftp from: ftp.che.rochester.edu:/pub/feinberg (An example of the use of anonymous ftp service is shown in Section (3.1)) There are two files to retrieve. The first file: CRNTPACK.TXT (retrieve in ascii mode) is a text file that explains how to use CRNT. The second file: CRNTPACK.EXE (retrieve in binary mode) is a compressed, self-extracting file that "unpacks" all the files that CRNT need to run properly. You should read the brief text file CRNTPACK.TXT. It tells you, among other things, to run the program CRNTPACK.EXE. This will have the effect of "unpacking" all the files that the CRNT needs to operate. Once the unpacking is finished, enter CRNT at the DOS prompt, and you'll be up and running. On your first time out, you should select "Hello, New User!" from the main menu. ******************************************************************************** CRNT is courtesy of Martin Feinberg, Department of Chemical Engineering, University of Rochester, Rochester, NY 14627.

In all probability, these review chapters (and their reference lists) contain all major advances made in electrochemistry during the last few decades. Hopefully, this listing will provide a useful information source for students and research workers of electrochemistry. The file is over 3500 lines long and lists over 1000 chapters. This compilation is available through anonymous ftp from: anlcmt.cmt.anl.gov:[.electrochem] (146.139.224.10) Filename: chapters.txt (An example of the use of anonymous ftp service is shown in Section (3.1), except, to set the correct directory, type: cd [.electrochem] ) ******************************************************************************** This bibliographic listing is courtesy of Zoltan Nagy, Divisions of Materials Science and Chemical Technology, Argonne National Laboratory, Argonne, Illinois 60439-4837, USA.

It is regularly updated in postings to the news group SCI.PHYSICS.FUSION, and it is archived at an FTP site (see below), available to all. The same files are also part of a WAIS site at SUNSITE.UNC.EDU (log in as wais), where it is possible to make keyword searches. The bibliography files at the ftp site are: cnf-bks (books) cnf-pap1..cnf-pap6 (papers, slices 1..6, sliced up because the total file exceeds the desirable maximum archive file size) cnf-brif (all papers, without abstracts, in one file) cnf-pat (patents, mostly pat. appl. in fact) cnf-cmnt (comments in magazines and newspapers, far from comprehensive) cnf-peri (peripherals, meaning papers of possible interest to the subject but not about CNF per se) cnf-unp (unpublished stuff collected by Vince Cate, hydrogen/metal references from Terry Bollinger). cnf-new (last 3 months' of updates in all groups). ******************************************************************************** Retrieval of the archived files: a. By anonymous FTP to: VM1.NODAK.EDU (134.129.111.1). Login anonymous, with your e-mail address as the password. Type CD FUSION, DIR FUSION.CNF* to get a listing. The general index is large, containing also all Fusion Digests, a collection of all postings to sci.physics.fusion since 1989. Use GET (e.g. GET FUSION.CNF-PAP1). b. Via LISTSERV. You get a (large) index of the archives by sending an e-mail to LISTSERV@VM1.NODAK.EDU, with a blank SUBJECT line, and the message: INDEX FUSION.

Papers can now be submitted for publication. The publication process is expected to be rapid, and the Journal will generally be more suitable for shorter papers that merit rapid publication. However, there will be no restrictions on the length of individual papers (but authors should be aware that readers will probably not read papers that are unnecessarily long). Color or monochrome photographs and figures may be included as GIF or JPEG images, as may animations and digitized video clips as MPEG files.
