Unsourced image removed Image Hoogsteenbase pair.png 160px right A Hoogsteenbasepair is a variation of base pairing in nucleic acid s such as the A T pair. In this manner, two nucleobase s on each strand can be held together by hydrogen bond s in the major groove. A Hoogsteenbasepair applies the N7 position of the purine base as a hydrogen bond acceptor and C6 amino group as a donor , which bind the Watson Crick N3&ndash N4 face of the pyrimidine base. History This term is named for Karst Hoogsteen , who, in 1963, first recognized the potential for these unusual pairings quoted from Lehninger Principles of Biochemistry by David Nelson and Michael Cox, 4th edition, published in 2005 by Freeman . Chemical properties Hoogsteen pairs have quite different properties from Basepair Watson Crick base pairs . The angle between the two glycosylic bonds ca. 80 in the A T pair is larger and the C1&prime &ndash C1&prime distance ca. 860 pm or 8.6 is smaller than in the regular geometry. In some cases, called reversed Hoogsteenbase pairs, one base is rotated 180 with respect to the other.

In contrast to the Darlington arrangement, the Sziklai pair has one NPN transistor NPN and one PNP transistor PNP transistor, and so it is sometimes called the complementary Darlington . Current gain is similar to that of a Darlington pair, which is the product of the gains of the two transistors. The configuration is named for its inventor George Clifford Sziklai George C. Sziklai . TOC One advantage over the Darlington pair is that the base turn on voltage is only about 0.6V or half of the Darlington s 1.2V nominal turn on voltage. Like the Darlington, it can saturate only to 0.6V, which is a drawback for high power stages. As with a Darlington pair, a resistor e.g., 100&Omega &ndash 1k&Omega is usually connected between Q2 emitter and base to improve its turn off time i.e., its performance for high frequency signals ref name TAoE .

Image Covalent&PolarBond.png right thumb 200px MO diagram s depicting covalent left and polar covalent right bonding in a diatomic molecule . In both cases a bond is created by the formation of an electron pair. Because electrons are fermion s, the Pauli exclusion principle forbids these particles from having exactly the same quantum numbers . Therefore the only way to occupy the same orbital, i.e. have the same orbital quantum number s, is to differ in the spin quantum number . This limits the number of electrons in the same orbital to exactly two. The pairing of spins is often energetically favorable and electron pairs therefore play a very large role in chemistry . They can form a chemical bond between two atoms as a lone pair . fill the core electron core levels of an atom. Because the spins are paired, the magnetic moment of the electrons cancels and the contribution of the pair to the magnetic properties will in general be a diamagnetism diamagnetic one . Although a strong tendency to pair off electrons can be observed in chemistry, it is also possible that electrons occur as unpaired electron s. In the case of metallic bonding the magnetic moments also compensate to a large extent, but the bonding is more communal so that individual pairs of electrons cannot be distinguished and it is better to consider the electrons as a collective ocean .

Otheruses4 dual pairs of vector spaces dual pairs in representation theory Reductive dual pair Unreferenced date December 2009 In functional analysis and related areas of mathematics a dual pair or dual system is a pair of vector spaces with an associated bilinear form . A common method in functional analysis, when studying normed vector space s, is to analyze the relationship of the space to its continuous dual , the vector space of all possible continuous linear form s on the original space. A dual pair generalizes this concept to arbitrary vector spaces, with the duality being expressed by a bilinear form. Using the bilinear form, semi norm s can be constructed to define a polar topology on the vector spaces and turn them into locally convex spaces , generalizations of normed vector spaces.

Image Two Gannets edit 2.jpg thumb 240px Northern Gannet pair In biology , a pair bond is the strong affinity that develops in some species between the males and females in a pair, potentially leading to breeding. Pair bonding is a term coined in the 1940s ref Cite journal contribution Pair bond year 2005. title Oxford English Dictionary postscript Bot inserted parameter. Either remove it or change its value to . for the cite to end in a . , as necessary. ref that is frequently used in sociobiology and evolutionary psychology circles. The term often implies either a lifelong socially monogamous relationship or a stage of mating interaction in socially monogamous species. It is sometimes used in reference to human relationships. Monogamous vole s, such as prairie vole s, have significantly greater density and distribution of vasopressin receptors in their brain when compared to polygamous voles.
