    Notes: Abstract Highly dispersed γ-Fe2O3 powders with particle sizes down to 5 nm were directly synthesized by combustion of solutions of iron pentacarbonyl or iron(III) acetylacetonate in toluene in an oxyhydrogen flame. The particle size as well as other properties of the obtained powders can be controlled simply by varying the iron concentration in the starting solutions. Phase composition, morphological and magnetic properties of the powders were studied. The reasons for the formation of γ-Fe2O3 are discussed by means of structure–chemical/kinetic considerations. The materials are interesting as recording materials, or ferrofluids, or for colour imaging and bioprocessing.

    Notes: Abstract We investigate the effects of heterogeneity and incomplete information on aggregate contributions to a public good using the voluntary contribution mechanism. The non-linear laboratory environment has three-person groups as partners under varying conditions of information and communication. Bergstrom, Blum and Varian predict that increasing heterogeneity will have no effect on aggregate contributions in a no-communication environment. Ledyard conjectures a positive effect of incomplete information, a negative effect of heterogeneity, and a positive interaction of heterogeneity and incomplete information. We find that incomplete information has a small but significant negative effect. Heterogeneity has a positive effect on aggregate contributions, but its effects interact unexpectedly with communication. In a no-communication environment, heterogeneity in two dimensions (endowment and preferences) increases contributions substantially while heterogeneity in a single dimension (endowment or preferences) has little effect. In the communication environment we find the reverse. We also find a positive interaction between heterogeneity and incomplete information. Thus we reject the Bergstrom, Blume and Varian invariance result and provide mixed evidence on Ledyard's conjectures.
