Transcriber's note:

Text enclosed by tilde marks was in bold face in the original
(~bold~).

Text enclosed by underscore marks is in italics (_italics_).
The italic designation for single italized letters (such as
variables in equations) and "foreign" abbreviations has been
omitted for ease of reading.

In numbers, equations, and chemical formulas, an underscore
indicates that the following term enclosed within curly
brackets is a subscript. Examples: CO_{2}, H_{2}SO_{4}.
A carat character indicates that the following term enclosed
within curly brackets is a superscript. For example, 11.1^{3}
is 11.1 to the third power.

Minor typographical errors have been corrected.
