Synthesis and characterization of L-amino acid doped 2-aminopyridine co-crystals using Powder XRD, FTIR and UV-Vis spectrum.
The FTIR spectrum shows that the carbonyl group of L-Leucine, L-Glutamic acid and L-Tyrosine interact with 2-aminopydine through N—H?O hydrogen bonding. 2-aminopyridine protonated and L-amino acids deprotonated during the reaction, resulting in the formation of 2-aminopyridiniumleucinate, bis2-aminopyridinium glutamate and 2-aminopyridiniumtyrosinate co-crystals. The UV-Vis spectrum shows that the molecules are closely packed and undergoes n??^* transition in all these three co-crystal and the cut off wavelength value indicate that bis2-aminopyridinium glutamate and 2-aminopyridiniumtyrosinate co-crystals have Non-linear optical property compared to 2-aminopyridiniumleucinate crystals. The cell parameter calculated from powder XRD pattern.

Effect of chemical solution on some of the mechanical properties of the polymer composites reinforced
This work has been done with using of polyproplyen (pp) as a matrix, which reinforced with fibers glass (glass fiber short , glass fiber woving roving , and glass fiber short +, glass fiber woving roving ). The research also studies the Mechanical properties (Creep- Impact ) of the Samples with the same volume fraction (30%) and comparing the results.These tests are carried out on samples under the influence of normal conditions room temperature (23+3oC) and after immersion of all samples in the chemical solutions (KOH-HCL- NaCO3). The normality for all these chemical solutions is 0.5. The results showed when time immersion increase these properties are decreased, which indicates the negative effects of these chemical solutions on the mechanical properties. Tests showed that the results of the values of each of the creep resistance and impact increases after immersion in chemical solutions, and that the solution KOH is more influential. Results show that samples of blend reinforced [PP + f.g (w.r+r)] possess better creep resistance, and sample of [PP+f.g (w-r)] possess better impact resistance at all conditions tests (room temperature and after immersion in chemical solutions).

Growth and characterization of Pure and L-alanine doped ZTC Crystals
Single crystals of pure Zinc Tris-thiourea Chloride (ZTC) and L-alanine- doped ZTC were grown from aqueous solutions by slow evaporation technique. The grown crystals have been subjected to single crystal x-ray diffraction to determine the unit cell dimensions. The Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) spectra has been recorded in the range 400-4500 cm-1. Morphological alterations have been observed when L-alanine was doped into ZTC crystals. UV-Visible spectrum shows that the grown crystals have wide optical transparency in the entire visible region. The grown crystals were also subjected to other characterizations such as micro hardness, thermal and NLO studies.

Magnetic coercivity: misconceptions and misinterpretations in textbooks
We describe various misconceptions and misinterpretations concerning presentation of the hysteresis loop for ferromagnets occurring in undergraduate and college textbooks. These problems originate from our teaching a Theoretical solid state / condensed matter physics (TSSP/CMP) course. A closer look at the definition of “coercivity” reveals two distinct notions referred to as the hysteresis loop: B vs. H or M vs. H, which can be easily confused and, in fact, are confused in several textbooks. The properties of the M vs. H type hysteresis loop are often ascribed to the B vs. H type loops, giving rise to various misconceptions. An extensive survey of textbooks at first in the TSSP/CMP area and later extended into the areas of general physics, materials science and magnetism / electromagnetism has been carried out. Relevant encyclopedias and physics dictionaries have also been consulted. The survey has revealed various other substantial misconceptions and/or misinterpretations than those originally identified in the TSSP/CMP area. The results are presented here to help in clarifying the misconceptions and misinterpretations in question. The physics education aspects arising from the textbook survey are also discussed. Additionally, analysis of the CMP examination results concerning questions pertinent to the hysteresis loop is provided.
