Sommario/riassunto

"The book will present different chapters corresponding to each of the meta-nanotube categories. There will be an introductory chapter that will provide the basics of what is needed to be known about pristine nanotubes to understand what is in the subsequent chapters. Each of the chapters that follow the introductory chapter will cover aspects from synthesis to applications, characterization, behavior, properties, and mechanisms. These chapters will focus on heterogeneous nanotubes, doped nanotubes, functionalized nanotubes, coated nanotubes and hybrid nanotubes, respectively, and will be followed by a final concluding chapter"--

Sommario/riassunto

How does Brexit change Northern Ireland’s system of government? Could it unravel crucial parts of Northern Ireland’s peace process? What are the wider implications of the arrangements for the Irish and UK constitutions? Northern Ireland presents some of the most difficult Brexit dilemmas. Negotiations between the UK and the EU have set out how issues like citizenship, trade, the border, human rights and constitutional questions may be resolved. But the long-term impact of Brexit isn’t clear. This thorough analysis draws upon EU, UK, Irish and international law, setting the scene for a post-Brexit Northern Ireland by showing what the future might hold.
