Talent management by Ismail, Fadillah, Rashid, Umi Kartini, Ahmad, Zanariah, al Hosain, Adnan Ali Hassan, Mohd Rosli, Nur Amalina

“…Notwithstanding, the writing underlines that a "working definition" of the term is missing, where in a hierarchical setting, the term is characterized variously (Lewis & Heckman 2006), and this has made it hard to pick the "right" definition (Tansley, 2011). So as to legitimately characterize ability in an authoritative setting, and as per the target of this examination, three definitions were perceived as fitting:…”

Infrared spectroscopy of NaCl(CH3OH)n complexes in helium nanodroplets by Sadoon, Ahmed M., Sarma, Gautam, Cunningham, Ethan M., Tandy, Jonathan D., Hanson-Heine, Magnus W. D., Besley, Nicholas A., Yang, Shengfu, Ellis, Andrew M.

“…These complexes were formed in liquid helium nanodroplets by consecutive pick-up of NaCl and CH3OH molecules. For the smallest NaCl(CH3OH)n, complexes where n = 1−3, the IR data suggest that the lowest-energy isomer is the primary product in each case. …”
