Lincoln County ( standard abbreviation: LC ) is a county located in the U. S. state of Kansas.

The task of the Logistics Command ( LC ) is to procure, maintain and sustain equipment in a state of operational readiness and at a minimum cost consistent with NAF mission requirements.

LC athletic teams have enjoyed success, including recent state titles in baseball and both men's and Women's Track and Field.

The LC gymnastics team won its first team state title in 2007.

LC has also enjoyed titles of sectional, regional and state level in individual wrestling, men's and women's track champions.

It is not concerned with the formation of molecules ( although much of the physics is identical ), nor does it examine atoms in a solid state as condensed matter.

Specifically it is the amount of a substance that contains as many elementary entities ( atoms, molecules or ions ) as there are atoms in 0. 012 kilogram ( or 12 grams ) of carbon-12, where the carbon-12 atoms are unbound, at rest and in their ground state.

The CJD prion is dangerous because it promotes refolding of native proteins into the diseased state The number of misfolded protein molecules will increase exponentially and the process leads to a large quantity of insoluble protein in affected cells.

Plasma is the state of matter where some of the electrons in a gas are stripped or " ionized " from their molecules or atoms.

In photochemical reactions, atoms and molecules absorb energy ( photons ) of the illumination light and convert into an excited state.

These perturbations result in different arrangement of electrons in the excited state of the involved molecules and therefore in different effects.

Oxidation and reduction describe the change of oxidation state that takes place in the atoms, ions or molecules involved in an electrochemical reaction.

This definition describes the entropy as being proportional to the natural logarithm of the number of possible microscopic configurations of the individual atoms and molecules of the system ( microstates ) which could give rise to the observed macroscopic state ( macrostate ) of the system.

In 1873, J. D. van der Waals introduced the first equation of state derived by the assumption of a finite volume occupied by the constituent molecules.

Excited organic molecules can also relax via conversion to a triplet state, which may subsequently relax via phosphorescence or by a secondary non-radiative relaxation step.

where is the concentration of excited state molecules at time, is the initial concentration and is the decay rate or the inverse of the fluorescence lifetime.

The Jablonski diagram describes most of the relaxation mechanisms for excited state molecules.

This occurs because excited molecules usually decay to the lowest vibrational level of the excited state before fluorescence emission takes place.

His group synthesized many new materials that exhibited the liquid crystalline state and developed a better understanding of how to design molecules that exhibit the state.

In fact, it includes weakly bound species that would not traditionally be considered molecules, such as the helium dimer, He < sub > 2 </ sub >, which has one vibrational bound state and is so loosely bound that it is only likely to be observed at very low temperatures.

The " singlet state ", i. e. the-sign, means: the spins are antiparallel, i. e. for the solid we have antiferromagnetism, and for two-atomic molecules one has diamagnetism.

In physics, specifically statistical mechanics, a population inversion occurs when a system ( such as a group of atoms or molecules ) exists in a state with more members in an excited state than in lower energy states.

* In reactions, quantum chemistry studies the ground state of individual atoms and molecules, the excited states, and the transition states that occur during chemical reactions.

The metal transforms to an antiferromagnetic state upon cooling to 14. 8 K. Individual samarium atoms can be isolated by encapsulating them into fullerene molecules.

The nature of calcium in the cytosol means that it is active for only a very short time, meaning its free state concentration is very low and is mostly bound to organelle molecules like calreticulin when inactive.

Solid is the state in which intermolecular attractions keep the molecules in fixed spatial relationships.

`` We the people of the Confederate States, each state acting in its sovereign and independent character, in order to form a permanent federal government, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity -- invoking the favor and the guidance of Almighty God -- do ordain and establish this Constitution for the Confederate States of America ''.

Their previous legalized marriages do not count, for they hold the laws of the state null and void.

He showed them what to do, and taught them how to keep the maids around the White House in a state of terror.

`` The people of this state do not yield their sovereignty to the agencies that serve them.

I've got a quarter of a million Germans in my state, and those krautheads tune in on Father Werther every night, and if he tells them to go out and piss in the public square, that's what they do.

I wanted to wipe my flint, but I didn't dare to, the state my hands were in, just as I didn't dare to do anything about the priming.

Unlike cities and towns, however, they do not have to submit any financial statements to the state Bureau of Audits.

Harassed state park officials often have more campers than they know what to do with.

A careful student has suggested that `` In any new revision ( of the Judicial Code ) the legislators would do well to remember that the allocation of power to the federal courts should be limited to those matters in which their expertise in federal law might be used, leaving to the state judiciaries the primary obligation of pronouncing state law ''.

McCullough and Farah also state that the risk of acquiring cancer rises almost five times for users of alcohol-containing mouthwash who neither smoke nor drink ( with a higher rate of increase for those who do ).

Artigas, Uruguay and neighboring Brazilian state Rio Grande do Sul are large world producers exceeding in quantity Minas Gerais, as well as Mato Grosso, Espirito Santo, Bahia, and Ceará states, all amethyst producers of importance in Brazil.

Conversely, some elements do not maintain distinct allotropes in different phases – for example phosphorus has numerous solid allotropes, which all revert to the same P < sub > 4 </ sub > form when melted to the liquid state.

An example of ancient aesthetics in Greece through poetry is Plato's quote: " For the authors of those great poems which we admire, do not attain to excellence through the rules of any art ; but they utter their beautiful melodies of verse in a state of inspiration, and, as it were, possessed by a spirit not their own.

Also relocated from the state of Rio de Janeiro were the 1st and 3rd Combat Cars Regiment, now stationed in the city of Santa Maria, in the state of Rio Grande do Sul.

National detection assets and vaccine stockpiles are not useful if local and state officials do not have access to them.

United States federal courts only act as interpreters of statutes and the constitution by elaborating and precisely defining the broad language ( connotation 1 ( b ) above ), but, unlike state courts, do not act as an independent source of common law ( connotation 1 ( a ) above ).

Copyrights are said to be territorial, which means that they do not extend beyond the territory of a specific state unless that state is a party to an international agreement.

Such computers are more versatile in that they do not need to have their hardware reconfigured for each new program, but can simply be reprogrammed with new in-memory instructions ; they also tend to be simpler to design, in that a relatively simple processor may keep state between successive computations to build up complex procedural results.

However, the law of mass action is valid only for concerted one-step reactions that proceed through a single transition state and is not valid in general because rate equations do not, in general, follow the stoichiometry of the reaction as Guldberg and Waage had proposed ( see, for example, nucleophilic aliphatic substitution by S < sub > N </ sub > 1 or reaction of hydrogen and bromine to form hydrogen bromide ).

Like all state routes outside major cities, they are only two-lane arterials and do not support heavy traffic.

In some countries sexual crimes, such as rape, adultery, incest and sodomy, carry the death penalty, as do religious crimes such as apostasy in Islamic nations ( the formal renunciation of the state religion ).

These are intended to ensure basic political, social and economic standards that a nation state, or intergovernmental body is obliged to provide to its citizens but many do include its governments.
