	Octet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The two best known octets in classical music are probably those by Felix Mendelssohn (which is for a double string quartet) and Franz Schubert (which is for clarinet, bassoon, horn, violin, viola, cello and double bass).
		Igor Stravinsky also wrote an octet for wind instruments (an unusual grouping of flute, clarinet, two bassoons, two trumpets and two trombones) and Paul Hindemith wrote a lesser known piece for clarinet, bassoon, horn, violin, two violas, cello and double bass.
		In chemistry, an atom in a chemical bond often obeys the octet rule based on the stability of 8 electrons in the valence shell.

	Orbitals in a Pool of Water, The Octet Rule, and VSEPR
		The most successful “octet” rule applies to noble gasses and to hydrides that are more-or-less isoelectronic with noble gasses.
		Furthermore, the existence of molecules such as SF and SF (as discussed in section 4) is hard to explain in terms of filled octets.
		This is the fundamental basis for the octet rule for elements in the second row of the periodic table.

	Octet rule - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The octet rule is a simple chemical theory that states that atoms tend to combine in such a way that they each have eight electrons in their valence shells, similar to the electronic configuration of a noble gas.
		The octet rule is inapplicable to atoms in periods greater than 2 because their electron shells can hold more than eight electrons.
		For transition metals an alternative for the octet rule is electron counting.

	RFC 1698 (rfc1698) - Octet Sequences for Upper-Layer OSI to Support Basic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		As well as the octet sequences which are the supporting layer headers (and trailers) around the application data, this document includes some tutorial material on the OSI upper layers.
		The octet sequences to be sent and the description of the alternative forms that may be received are equivalent to an informal re- specification of the relevant parts of the upper-layer protocols.
		This slightly increases the number of octets sent, but means that the length of a varying field (e.g., user data, or a varying object identifier) affects only the length of the item itself, and not the enclosing lengths.

		If alternative resonance structures have octets on all atoms, the structure with the smallest formal charges that are in agreement with the electronegativity trends are the most important.
		It has no octet on carbon, and has charge separation, but the formal charges are in agreement with the electronegativity of the elements (negative charge on oxygen).
		Although the first three equivalent structures have octet for all the atoms, and one more bond than the bottom structure, they have charge separation that goes against the electronegativity of the elements involved.

	Octet Rule
		The octet rule says that atoms tend to gain, lose or share electrons so as to have eight electrons in their outer electron shell.
		As you learn to use the octet rule, also learn to recognize situations where it does not apply and disregard it in those situations.
		Notice that we start off with an exception to the octet rule because there is only room for two electrons in the first energy level.

		Stravinsky related once that the Octet was inspired by a dream he had of a group of instruments playing "some attractive music" which he was unable to recognize or remember the next day.
		In fact, the Octet marks Stravinsky's return to sonata form for the first time since his maturity as a composer; it is thus seen as one of the landmarks of his neo-Classical style.
		The overall contrapuntal character is maintained almost to the end, when the instruments begin a breathless chordal passage that divides the eighth-notes of two 2/4 measures into a pattern of 3+3+2, bringing the work to a close on one last sharp, dry chord.

		OCTET STRING is a simple ASN.1 string type identified by the UNIVERSAL TAG number 4.
		An OCTET STRING object often is DER encoded using the constructed encoding method by splitting the value into separately encoded OCTET STRING components.
		The constructed form can be recognized by bit 6 of the (first) identifier octet(s) of the DER encoded bit stream, which is set to 1 if the constructed method is used.

	New Violin Family Association
		The VIOLIN OCTET differs from the existing violin family of violin, viola, cello, and bass in which their chief acoustic characteristics are not only different from the violin but from each other.
		Experimental musical evaluation of the Octet in England has, however, indicated a preference for the higher placement of the Helmholtz resonance in the lower instruments so as to give a lighter, more balanced consort sound.
		The Treble Violin is included in many of the compositions written specifically for the Octet; one use is to add clarity and brilliance to the ensemble, especially playing on its upper strings in combination with the Soprano Violin.

	OCTET
		OCTET is a research planning initiative on ocean carbon cycling.

		The OCTET Workshop was held at Airlie House near Warrenton, VA, to further identify and define an OCTET science agenda, to establish priorities among research questions of interest, and suggest a framework for implementing solutions.

		In a letter to Hutchins from January 28, 1962, Brant mentioned an enormous Abraham Prescott bass which the group had found that did not prove to be large enough for their needs,[FN 72] and went on to mention pieces he was writing that used the instruments.
		Conventional string instruments relate to the octet in the following ways: the violin has the same tuning as the mezzo, the viola the same tuning as the alto, the cello the same tuning as the baritone, and the double bass the same tuning as the contrabass violin.
		That Schelleng did not share the enthusiasm of Hutchins and others about the future of the octet reflects the conservative nature of musicians and their world, but it should be noted that in the thirty years that the octet has existed that they continue to be played and demonstrated.
