In certain forms of crystalline carbon, such as diamond and graphite, a saddle point or "hump" occurs at the bond site in the charge density. The triplet state of C 2 does follow this trend. However, the singlet state of C 2 acts more like silicon or germanium; that is, the charge density has a maximum at the bond site. [6]
The pigging installation shown (right) is known as an Above Ground Installation (AGI). It is part of the UK's National Transmission System for natural gas. It shows two pig launcher/ receivers at the end of two 610-millimetre (24 in) diameter pipelines that carry gas under the River Thames, between East Tilbury in Essex and Shorne in Kent.
The ground state of S 2 is a triplet: a diradical, with two unpaired electrons like O 2 and SO. [6] It has the S-S bond length of 189 pm, much shorter than the S-S single bonds in S 8, which are 206 pm long. Its Raman spectrum consists of a band at 715 cm −1. [7] The corresponding O-O band for O 2 is found at 1556 cm −1. [8]
A family of feral pigs. Pigs have escaped from farms and gone feral in many parts of the world. Feral pigs in the southeastern United States have migrated north to the Midwest, where many state agencies have programs to remove them. [35] [36] [37] Feral pigs in New Zealand and northern Queensland have caused substantial environmental damage.
Pork belly cut, showing layers of muscle and fat A pig being slow-roasted on a rotisserie. Pork is the culinary name for the meat of the pig (Sus domesticus).It is the most commonly consumed meat worldwide, [1] with evidence of pig husbandry dating back to 5000 BCE.

The ground state of a quantum-mechanical system is its stationary state of lowest energy; the energy of the ground state is known as the zero-point energy of the system. An excited state is any state with energy greater than the ground state. In quantum field theory, the ground state is usually called the vacuum state or the vacuum. If more ...
It seemed for a while that California's controversial pork law would take effect only when pigs fly. The law was fought all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, but starting this month, farmers ...
