T1 - On the validity of a model for the reversals of the Earth‘s magnetic field N2 - We have used techniques of nonlinear dynamics to compare a special model for the reversals of the Earth's magnetic field with the observational data. Although this model is rather simple, there is no essential difference to the data by means of well-known characteristics, such as correlation function and probability distribution. Applying methods of symbolic dynamics we have found that the considered model is not able to describe the dynamical properties of the observed process. These significant differences are expressed by algorithmic complexity and Renyi information.

A1 - Wessel, Niels T1 - Quantitative analysis of heart rate variability N2 - In the modern industrialized countries every year several hundred thousands of people die due to the sudden cardiac death. The individual risk for this sudden cardiac death cannot be defined precisely by common available, non-invasive diagnostic tools like Holter-monitoring, highly amplified ECG and traditional linear analysis of heart rate variability (HRV). Therefore, we apply some rather unconventional methods of nonlinear dynamics to analyse the HRV. Especially, some complexity measures that are basing on symbolic dynamics as well as a new measure, the renormalized entropy, detect some abnormalities in the HRV of several patients who have been classified in the low risk group by traditional methods. A combination of these complexity measures with the parameters in the frequency domain seems to be a promising way to get a more precise definition of the individual risk. These findings have to be validated by a representative number of patients.

It was found that each compound investigated forms edge-on arranged stable monolayers at the air-water interface. LB-multilayers derived from fivefold pentyl-substituted pentaynes are characterized by an edge-on ordering of the molecules within Y-type bilayers. One of these compounds, containing a hydoxy substituent as hydrophilic head group, is exemplified and two possible rectangular molecular assemblies perpendicular to the substrate, each with a columnar in-plane packing, will be discussed as a result of molecular modelling. Based on the experimental results, hexagonal layer packing in the LB-film of a disc-shaped penta-alkynyl carboxylic acid without lateral substituents proved to be possible, which, furthermore, could be confirmed by molecular mechanics simulation.
