Raman spectroscopy is dependent on scattering of light. When light interacts with matter, energy exchange can take place through absorption, simulated emission, Raman scattering or spontaneous emission. In Raman scattering, the emitted photons have less energy and lower frequency in comparison with the absorbed photons. Some energy of the emitted photons is transferred to the molecules. Raman spectroscopy is a method which collects the chemical fingerprints associated with molecules. Every molecule has different levels of vibrational energy and the emitted photons experience shift in their wavelengths. The wavelength shifts are collected,examined and analyzed for sample identification. Raman spectroscopy ...

Reflection paper

This is a very intriguing article. It addresses a very important question in the modern world. Human activities have been responsible for the damage caused in the environment. Human beings because of their intelligence have been able to conquer nature. However, is it the right approach towards life?

Love is the most common and the most uncommon thing ever. The first epithet is characteristic for love, as this thing happens (or at least is supposed to happen) in everyone’s life regardless of life, whereas the word “uncommon” is natural for love as well, as it is as unique in every life as possible. Therefore, stories of Kalidasa and Chretien de Troyes are read with lightness; however the times of their creation have been covered with dust for many long years. Such lightness can be explained with the mere fact that authors touch such eternal topics, which ...

Describe how Spain, England, France and Dutch’s different economies-along with their justification for expansion-shape their settlements in North America –

The colonization of North America revolves around the need for Spain, England, and Spain to conquer and control the continent. The French and the Spaniards governed through autocratic sovereigns while the English were free to govern themselves as much as they followed the English law. The biggest advantage, therefore, for the English to expand into North America was that they allowed immigration which enabled them to boost their colonial population that helped them to participate more actively and on a wide scale in agricultural activities. The English colonies were established by a royal charter and settled first in Massachusetts ...

Introduction

The Berlin Conference of 1884 to 1885 which is also referred to as the Congo Conference signified a powerful role in the regulation of European colonization as well as free trade in parts of Africa during the period of neo-imperialism.

Radical extremism is a sought after media subject today. However, the real picture is always missing. The entire world focusses only one type of radical extremism. The world chooses to forget that there is yet another type which is far more dangerous. The callous campaign of the Crusaders in the Eleventh Century destroyed the peace in the Middle East and is responsible for all the animosity towards the West from this region. Yet, European scholars at the time did not document the massacres or acts of cannibalism by the Crusading armies. Similarly, while the Western media is busy covering ...

African resistance to colonial powers has an extensive history that dates before the nineteenth century. The responses to colonial rule varied by location, religion, and resources that included both violent and nonviolent tactics. It is important to note that most rebellions were complex and strategically planned in the rising intolerance of colonial rule on the continent of Africa. Although Europeans aimed to divide and conquer, they did not always successfully change relationships among African communities who worked together in resistance. Nonetheless, foreign colonial powers were successful in recruiting tribes to assist in conquering other tribes who were in conflict. ...

The examination of the different characters in The Song of Ronald reveals the hierarchy of authority in the Early Medieval society. This epic poem showed that the people believed in God, though king Marsilie was known not to love God, but instead “worships Mahomet and calls upon Apollin” (Ronald 2). God occupies the highest position, and based on the readings, the loyalty of those who believed in him are answered favorably. For instance, on his way to avenge his men, Charles prayed that the Lord God will cause the sun to stop on its course and this was granted ...

There are radical examples, like Chris McCandless, who has chosen alienation from the society in order to live in wilderness ( ...

As MacDonald notes, I feel that “Tongues Untied” is a classic film that has employed a unique approach to shed light on the homosexuality and the gay culture, particularly among the Black Americans. The film uses a poetic approach for explaining the tribulations, discrimination, and exploitation that these individuals undergo (MacDonald 64). I conquer with Macdonald’s assertion that the aspect of combining both baloney sexual excitement and a formal experiment was a strategic approach. Through this, the film command attention by featuring the sensitive issue of human sexually. The film justifies its argument by setting real life examples ...

Romanticism, also known as the romantic era, was an intellectual movement, complex in artistry and literature, which emerged in the mid 18th century, and drew much of its strength from its strong reactions against the Industrial Revolution.

One of the reasons for the development of romanticism was to revolt or demonstrate against the norms and the characteristics that came with the Age of Enlightenment. These characteristics were in line with the emerging aristocratic political and social issues.

The movement was also against the ...

The Hungarian invasion had quite adverse effects on the political stability of most of European nations. This in turn crippled development in Europe both economically as well as socially. The major contributor of these destructive effects was the techniques employed during and after attacks. The Vikings and the Muslim used brutal methods to conquer cities and kingdoms in the western region, characterized by massive destruction of buildings, trade hubs as well as individuals lives.

Their desire to settle in areas they succeed to conquer worsened matters the more, since they ended up interfering with the social set up of ...
