TI Data-domain correlation approach for joint hydrogeologic inversion of
time-lapse hydrogeologic and geophysical data
SO GEOPHYSICS

ID DATA INCORPORATING TOPOGRAPHY; ERT
AB Inverse estimations of hydrogeologic properties often are highly uncertain because of the expense of collecting hydrogeologic data and the subsequent lack of information. Geophysical data potentially can help fill this information gap because geophysical methods can survey large areas remotely and relatively inexpensively. However, geophysical data are difficult to incorporate into hydrogeologic parameter estimations primarily because of a lack of knowledge concerning the petrophysical relationships between hydrogeologic and geophysical parameters. A method can be used that allows time-lapse geophysical data to be incorporated directly into a hydrogeologic parameter estimation when a strong correlation exists between changes in geophysical and hydrogeologic properties. This approach bypasses the need for an explicit petrophysical transform by formulating the geophysical part of the hydrogeologic inversion in terms of a data-domain correlation operator. A synthetic electrical resistivity monitoring application is used to estimate the hydraulic conductivity distribution. Including time-lapse resistivity data to supplement sparse hydrologic data appears to improve greatly the resolution of hydraulic conductivity in this case. More generally, the formulation and results suggest that geophysical monitoring data can be incorporated effectively into a hydrogeologic parameter estimation using a data-domain correlation operator, assuming a strong correlation exists between changes in hydrogeologic and geophysical properties.

AB The speciation of Cr(VI) in Cromite ore Processing Residue was investigated by means of bulk XRD, and a combination of micro-XRF, - XAS and -XRD at the Advanced Light Source (ALS), Berkeley, CA, U.S.A.. Bulk XRD yielded one group of phases that contained explicitly Cr(VI) in their structure, Calcium Aluminum Chromium Oxide Hydrates, accounting for 60% of the total Cr(VI). Micro-analyses at ALS yielded complimentary information, confirming that hydrogarnets and hydrotalcites, two mineral groups that can host Cr(VI) in their structure by substitution, were indeed Cr(VI) sinks. Chromatite (CaCrO(4)) was also identified by micro-XRD, which was not possible with bulk methods due to its low content. The acquisition of micro-XRF elemental maps enabled not only the identification of Cr(VI)-binding phases, but also the understanding of their location within the matrix. This information is invaluable when designing Cr(VI) treatment, to optimize release and availability for reduction.

TI Practical Postcalibration Uncertainty Analysis: Yucca Mountain, Nevada
SO GROUND WATER

DT Article
ID GROUNDWATER MODEL CALIBRATION; INVERSE PROBLEM; FLOW
AB The values of parameters in a groundwater flow model govern the precision of predictions of future system behavior. Predictive precision, thus, typically depends on an ability to infer values of system properties from historical measurements through calibration. When such data are scarce, or when their information content with respect to parameters that are most relevant to predictions of interest is weak, predictive uncertainty may be high, even if the model is "calibrated." Recent advances help recognize this condition, quantitatively evaluate predictive uncertainty, and suggest a path toward improved predictive accuracy by identifying sources of predictive uncertainty and by determining what observations will most effectively reduce this uncertainty. We demonstrate linear and nonlinear predictive error/uncertainty analyses as applied to a groundwater flow model of Yucca Mountain, Nevada, the United States' proposed site for disposal of high-level radioactive waste. Linear and nonlinear uncertainty analyses are readily implemented as an adjunct to model calibration with medium to high parameterization density. Linear analysis yields contributions made by each parameter to a prediction's uncertainty and the worth of different observations, both existing and yet-to-be-gathered, toward reducing this uncertainty. Nonlinear analysis provides more accurate characterization of the uncertainty of model predictions while yielding their (approximate) probability distribution functions. This article applies the above methods to a prediction of specific discharge and confirms the uncertainty bounds on specific discharge supplied in the Yucca Mountain Project License Application.

AB It is clear from experimental studies that genotype is an important determinant of cancer susceptibility in general, and for radiation carcinogenesis specifically. It has become increasingly clear that genotype influences not only the ability to cope with DNA damage but also influences the cooperation of other tissues, like the vasculature and immune system, necessary for the establishment of cancer. Our experimental data and that of others suggest that the carcinogenic action of ionizing radiation (IR) can also be considered a two-compartment problem: while IR can alter genomic sequence as a result of DNA damage, it can also induce signals that alter multicellular interactions and phenotypes that underpin carcinogenesis. Rather than being accessory or secondary to genetic damage, we propose that such non-targeted radiation effects create the critical context that promotes cancer development. This review focuses on experimental studies that clearly define molecular mechanisms by which cell interactions contribute to cancer in different organs, and addresses how non-targeted radiation effects may similarly act though the microenvironment. The definition of non-targeted radiation effects and their dose dependence could modify the current paradigms for radiation risk assessment since radiation non-targeted effects, unlike DNA damage, are amenable to intervention. The implications of this perspective in terms of reducing cancer risk after exposure are discussed. Health Phys. 97(5):446-457; 2009

AB To have an impact on risk assessment for purposes of radiation protection recommendations, significantly broad variations in carcinogenic radiosensitivity would have to exist in significant proportions in the human population. Even if we knew all the genes where mutations would have major effects, individual genome sequencing does not seem useful, since we do not know all these genes, nor can we be certain of the phenotypic effect of polymorphisms discovered. Further, sequencing would not reveal epigenetic changes in gene expression. Another approach to develop phenotypic biomarkers for cells or tissues for which variations in radiation response may reflect the variations in carcinogenic sensitivity. To be useful, experimental evidence for such a correlation would be crucial, and it is also evident that correlations may be tissue or tumor specific. Some cellular markers are discussed that have shown promise in this regard. They include chromosome aberration induction and DNA repair assays that are sufficiently sensitive to measure after modest or low doses or dose rates. To this end we summarize here some of these assays and review the results of a number of experiments from our laboratory that show clear differences in DNA repair capacity reflected by gamma-H2AX foci formation in cells from a high proportion (perhaps 113) of apparently normal individuals. A low dose-rate assay was used to amplify such differences. Another promising assay combines G(2) chromosomal radiosensitivity with the above gamma-H2AX foci on mitotic chromosomes. There are other potentially useful assays as well. Health Phys. 97(5):470-480; 2009

AB Since the mid-1980's the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) has used a value of 0.85 as a correction factor for the self absorption of activity for particulate radioactive air samples collected from building exhaust for environmental monitoring. More recently, an effort was made to evaluate the current particulate radioactive air sample filters (Versapor (R) 3000, 47-mm diameter) used at PNNL for self absorption effects. There were two methods used to characterize tire samples. Sixty samples were selected frost the archive for acid digestion to compare the radioactivity measured by direct gas-flow proportional counting of filters to the results obtained after acid digestion of the filter and counting again by gas-flow proportional detection. Thirty different sample filters were selected for visible light microscopy to evaluate filter loading and particulate characteristics. Mass-loading effects were also considered. Large error is associated with the sample filter analysis comparison and subsequently with the estimation of the absorption factor resulting in an inadequate method to estimate losses from self-absorption in the sample filter. The mass loading on the sample filter as determined after digestion and drying was similar to 0.08 mg cm(-2); however, this value may not represent the total flier mass loading given that there may be undetermined losses associated with tire digestion process. While it is difficult to determine how much material is imbedded in the filter, observations front the microscopy analysis indicate that the vast majority of the particles remain on the top of the filter. In comparing the results obtained, the continued use of 0.85 as a conservative correction factor is recommended. Health Phys. 97(Supplement3): S161-S168; 2009

AB Utilization of America's substantial coal reserves for energy production has become a national priority. Advanced coal-fired power plants offer an environmentally friendly means to achieve that goal. These power plants, such as ultrasupercritical power plants, will provide high thermal efficiency along with greatly reduced emissions of CO and other pollutants. Life cycle costs for the advanced coal-fired plants can be reduced by enhanced observability in support of condition-based maintenance. The enhanced observability can be achieved by using networks of condition-monitoring sensors that would provide component-level material condition information and through-wall temperature monitoring. This would reduce uncertainties in knowledge of material condition, at the level of individual components, and improve capability to predict remaining life of critical components. One approach being developed under the U. S. Department of Energy Small Business Innovation Research Program is to develop and implement high-temperature versions of the meandering winding magnetometer (HT-MWM) for temperatures up to 1000 degrees C. These patented sensors, coupled with multivariate inverse methods, would provide superior performance for in situ material condition monitoring (material degradation, flaw detection, stress relaxation, and/or creep monitoring) and through-wall temperature measurement. Networks of HT-MWMs will generate material condition information to be used by adaptive life-management algorithms for remaining life prediction and decision support.

engines; proportional-integral derivative (PID) tuning
ID DISCRETE-TIME; IGNITION; OPTIMIZATION; SYSTEMS
AB Homogenous-charge-compression-ignition (HCCI) engines have the benefit of high efficiency with low emissions of NO and particulates. These benefits are due to the autoignition process of the dilute mixture of fuel and air during compression. However, because there is no direct-ignition trigger, control of ignition is inherently more difficult than in standard internal combustion engines. This difficulty necessitates that a feedback controller be used to keep the engine at a desired (efficient) setpoint in the face of disturbances. Because of the nonlinear autoignition process, the sensitivity of ignition changes with the operating point. Thus, gain scheduling is required to cover the entire operating range of the engine. Controller tuning can therefore be a time-intensive process. With the goal of reducing the time to tune the controller, we use extremum seeking (ES) to tune the parameters of various forms of combustion-timing controllers. In addition, in this paper, we demonstrate how ES can be used for the determination of an optimal combustion-timing setpoint on an experimental HCCI engine. The use of ES has the benefit of achieving both optimal setpoint (for maximizing the engine efficiency) and controller-parameter tuning tasks quickly.

AB Detailed analysis of mode structures inside coupled microstrip lines and their correlation with crosstalk between traces has been performed. The use of finite-difference time-domain and singular value decomposition methods for modal identification followed by cross correlation for crosstalk prediction is demonstrated in this paper. The combination of these methods is robust, versatile, and ideal for pulsed applications in an inhomogeneous, anisotropic multilayer substrate with complex 3-D structures. Moreover, all possible modes are extracted in a single analysis. This novel approach provides a quantitative measurement of crosstalk by establishing correlation between modes evolving inside the source line and the field waveforms coupled with the victim line. The effects of line topology, material properties, and pulse characteristics are examined. At the near end, transverse electromagnetic mode of the source line dictates coupling; however, as the pulse advances, the higher order transverse magnetic mode dominates and exhibits significant contribution to the evolution of the waveform coupled with the victim line at the far end, which is confirmed by cross correlation. This paper has physical significance in devising systems for suppressing unwanted modes responsible for crosstalk and radiation leakage due to fast pulses.

AB A 12.3-megapixel charge-coupled device (CCD) that can be operated at high substrate-bias voltages has been developed in support of a proposal to study dark energy. The pixel size is 10.5 mu m, and the format is 3512 rows by 3508 columns. The CCD is nominally 200 mu m thick and is fabricated on high-resistivity n-type silicon that allows for fully depleted operation with the application of a substrate-bias voltage. The CCD is required to have high quantum efficiency (QE) at near-infrared wavelengths, low noise and dark current, and an rms spatial resolution of less than 4 mu m. In order to optimize the spatial resolution and QE, requirements that have conflicting dependences on the substrate thickness, it is necessary to operate the CCD at large substrate-bias voltages. In this paper, we describe the features of the CCD, summarize the performance, and discuss in detail the device-design techniques used to realize 200-mu m-thick CCDs that can be operated at substrate-bias voltages in excess of 100 V.

The system consists of five series-connected PV modules, a six-level DCMLI generating fundamental-modulation staircase threephase output voltages, and a three-phase induction motor as the load. In order to validate the proposed concept, simulation studies and experimental measurements using a small-scale laboratory prototype are also presented. The results show the feasibility of the fundamental frequency switching application in three-phase stand-alone PV power systems.

AB Consider many instances of an arbitrary quadripartite pure state of four quantum systems ABCD. Alice holds the AC part of each state, Bob holds B, while R represents all other parties correlated with ABC. Alice is required to redistribute the C systems to Bob while asymptotically preserving the overall purity. We prove that this is possible using Q qubits of communication and E ebits of shared entanglement between Alice and Bob, provided that Q >= 1/2 I(C; D|B) and Q + E >= H (C|B), proving the optimality of the Luo-Devetak outer bound. The optimal qubit rate provides the first known operational interpretation of quantum conditional mutual information. We also show how our protocol leads to a fully operational proof of strong subaddivity and uncover a general organizing principle, in analogy to thermodynamics, that underlies the optimal rates.

AB Visualization is essential for understanding the increasing volumes of digital data. However, the process required to create insightful visualizations is involved and time consuming. Although several visualization tools are available, including tools with sophisticated visual interfaces, they are out of reach for users who have little or no knowledge of visualization techniques and/or who do not have programming expertise. In this paper, we propose VISMASHUP, a new framework for streamlining the creation of customized visualization applications. Because these applications can be customized for very specific tasks, they can hide much of the complexity in a visualization specification and make it easier for users to explore visualizations by manipulating a small set of parameters. We describe the framework and how it supports the various tasks a designer needs to carry out to develop an application, from mining and exploring a set of visualization specifications (pipelines), to the creation of simplified views of the pipelines, and the automatic generation of the application and its interface. We also describe the implementation of the system and demonstrate its use in two real application scenarios.

AB Functional mesoporous carbon has been built using 1,10-phenanthroline as the fundamental building block, resulting in a nanoporous, high surface area sorbent capable of selectively binding transition metal ions. This material had a specific surface area of 870 m(2)/g, an average pore size of about 30 A, and contained as much as 8.2 wt% N. Under acidic conditions, where the 1,10-phenanthroline ligand is protonated, this material was found to be an effective anion exchange material for transition metal anions like PdCl(4)(2-) and H(2)VO(4)(1-). 1,10-Phenanthroline functionalized mesoporous carbon ("Phen-FMC") was found to have a high affinity for Cu(II), even down to a pH of 1. At pHs above 5, Phen-FMC was found to bind a variety of transition metal cations (e.g. Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), etc.) from filtered ground water, river water and seawater. Phen-FMC displayed rapid sorption kinetics with Co(II) in filtered river water, reaching equilibrium in less than an hour, and easily lowering the [Co(II)] to sub-ppb levels. Phen-FMC was found to be more effective for transition metal ion capture than ion-exchange resin or activated carbon. (c) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The environment is increasingly affected by global climate change. While the causes of climate change are generated across the globe, the impacts of climate change will be highly variable at the local level. An increased scientific understanding of the potential impacts that climate change may have within China has raised new concern among China's leaders. Given that China's domestic realities inform its international policy choices, understanding how climate change may affect its population and natural resources is critical to global climate stabilization efforts. This article examines how the impacts of climate change on China, and China's response, will drive security challenges domestically, as well as in the greater Asian region and around the world. It shows that the impact of climate change on China will be significant and may have sizable adverse economic implications, particularly on vulnerable east coast economic centers. Water scarcity is a problem that already challenges China's leadership and one that will be exacerbated under projected climate impacts. In addition, the country faces the risk of international retaliation should it fail to undertake serious greenhouse gas mitigation actions. Yet China is not without options, and is already well poised to become a leader in the low-carbon technology revolution.

AB High energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements have been performed to provide quantitative microscopic guidance for modeling of fatigue crack growth. Specifically we report local strain mapping, along with in situ loading strain response, results on 4140 steel fatigue specimens exhibiting the crack growth retardation "overload effect". Detailed, 2D, epsilon(yy)-strain field mapping shows that a single overload (OL) cycle creates a compressive strain field extending millimeters above and below the crack plane. The OL strain field structures are shown to persist after the crack tip has grown well beyond the OL position. The specimen exhibiting the maximal crack growth rate retardation following overload exhibits a tensile residual strain region at the crack tip. Strain field results, on in situ tensile loaded specimens, show a striking critical threshold load. F(c), phenomenon in their strain response. At loads below F(c) the strain response is dominated by a rapid suppression of the compressive OL feature with modest response at the crack tip. At loads above F(c) the strain response at the OL position terminates and the response at the crack tip becomes large. This threshold load response behavior is shown to exhibit lower F(c) values, and dramatically enhanced rates of strain change with load as the crack tip propagates farther beyond the OL position. The OL strain feature behind the crack tip also is shown to be suppressed by removing the opposing crack faces via an electron discharge cut passing through the crack tip. Finally unique 2D strain field mapping (imaging) results, through the depth of the specimen, of the fatigue crack front and the OL feature in the wake are also presented. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

DE exascale; software; international; applications; scientific computing
AB Over the last 20 years, the open-source community has provided more and more software on which the world's high-performance computing systems depend for performance and productivity. The community has invested millions of dollars and years of effort to build key components. Although the investments in these separate software elements have been tremendously valuable, a great deal of productivity has also been lost because of the lack of planning, coordination, and key integration of technologies necessary to make them work together smoothly and efficiently, both within individual petascale systems and between different systems. A repository gatekeeper and an email discussion list can coordinate open-source development within a single project, but there is no global mechanism working across the community to identify critical holes in the overall software environment, spot opportunities for beneficial integration, or specify requirements for more careful coordination. It seems clear that this completely uncoordinated development model will not provide the software needed to support the unprecedented parallelism required for peta/exascale computation on millions of cores, or the flexibility required to exploit new hardware models and features, such as transactional memory, speculative execution, and GPUs. We believe the community must work together to prepare for the challenges of exascale computing, ultimately combing their efforts in a coordinated International Exascale Software Project.

AB One question before the high-performance computing community is "How will application developers write code for exascale machines?" At this point it looks like they might be riding a rough beast indeed. This paper is a brief assessment of where we stand now with respect to writing programs for our largest supercomputers and what we should do next. MPI is likely to remain a critical part of the programming infrastructure as we move towards exascale, but more is needed, in particular a robust, portable, and effective standard for parallel programming within a single address space, perhaps for heterogeneous processors. Formal methods provide the only truly scalable approach to developing correct code in this complex programming environment.

AB Application scalability is directly related to the ability of the application developer to effectively use the resources provided by a computing system. As we start to address the development of exascale platforms, we must engage in a dialog to define the terms related to resource management. Approaches to resource management can be categorized in two dimensions: static/dynamic and explicit/implicit. The static/dynamic dimension refers to when resource management decisions are made: prior to program execution or during program execution. The implicit/explicit dimension refers to the object that implements the decision making: the tools that implement the programming environment or the application developer. The development of applications that can scale to the resources provided by an exascale system will require tools that allow programmers to move easily and seamlessly between these dimensions as they express resource management decisions.

ID FAULT-TOLERANCE; SYSTEMS; PERFORMANCE; ROLLBACK
AB Over the past few years resilience has became a major issue for high-performance computing (HPC) systems, in particular in the perspective of large petascale systems and future exascale systems. These systems will typically gather from half a million to several millions of central processing unit (CPU) cores running up to a billion threads. From the current knowledge and observations of existing large systems, it is anticipated that exascale systems will experience various kind of faults many times per day. It is also anticipated that the current approach for resilience, which relies on automatic or application level checkpoint/restart, will not work because the time for checkpointing and restarting will exceed the mean time to failure of a full system. This set of projections leaves the community of fault tolerance for HPC systems with a difficult challenge: finding new approaches, which are possibly radically disruptive, to run applications until their normal termination, despite the essentially unstable nature of exascale systems. Yet, the community has only five to six years to solve the problem. This white paper synthesizes the motivations, observations and research issues considered as determinant of several complimentary experts of HPC in applications, programming models, distributed systems and system management.

AB For the past 10-15 years, horizontal layers of software and hardware design and development have been the de facto standard of creating high-performance computing (HPC) software. The horizontal design approach leads to the development of discrete components in the software stack and independent hardware components-all developed with different methods, requirements and quality dominated by plug-and-play componentization that is focused on horizontal functionality and portability. The horizontal software paradigm will break down at the exascale due to the system scale and complexity. The vertical approach needed for the exascale should include resilience (reliability and fault tolerance); performance; programmability; computational models; I/O; consistency and verification; resource management; and power management/total cost of ownership. To make the exascale an effective reality, instead of thinking of integration as the final step in defining and developing an exascale system, it will have to be the first step.

AB We examine the future of application performance consistency on exascale parallel computing systems. By performance consistency we mean the regularity of wall clock times to complete a fixed amount of application progress. Exascale systems will have dramatically increased complexity along with their capability. Contributors to inconsistency include architectural choices, software functions and subtle interactions, and inconsistency will lead to lost potential. The challenge is how to maintain consistency at the exascale. In order for exascale systems to exhibit the consistency that is required to make the applications and systems productive, a new understanding of the causes and solutions to inconsistency is required, along with new ways of measuring the impact that design, implementation and operational choices have on consistency.

AB We propose a coordinated strategy for exascale software development that includes the incorporation of successful research and development (R&D) into development and engineering (D&E) projects and harvesting the successful D&E projects into products with vendor support (P&S). This allows the most flexible R&D agenda while at the same time providing a commercialization path. This process is described as a natural extension of current focus areas and funding agents for R&D, D&E and P&S, but adds stake holders from the next stage in the process in the upstream processes. This model allows the flexibility to encourage development and competition of ideas in the research, development and productization phases. We anticipate that multiple iterations through this process from R&D through P&S are required to achieve appropriate software for Exascale systems.

AB Exascale systems will provide an unprecedented opportunity for science, one that will make it possible to use computation not only as a critical tool along with theory and experiment in understanding the behavior of the fundamental components of nature, but also for critical advances for the nation's energy needs and security. To create exascale systems and software that will enable the US Department of Energy ( DOE) to meet the science goals critical to the nation's energy, ecological sustainability, and global security, we must focus on major architecture, software, algorithm, and data challenges, and build on newly emerging programming environments. Only with this new infrastructure will applications be able to scale up to the required levels of parallelism and integrate technologies into complex coupled systems for real-world multidisciplinary modeling and simulation. Achieving this goal will likely involve a shift from current static approaches for application development and execution to a combination of new software tools, algorithms, and dynamically adaptive methods.

EXASCALE SYSTEMS
SO INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF HIGH PERFORMANCE COMPUTING APPLICATIONS

DT Article
DE exascale computing; parallel programming models; advanced modeling and
simulation; fault resilient applications; software engineering for
computational science and engineering
AB Preparing applications for a transition from petascale to exascale systems will require a very large investment in several areas of software research and development. The introduction of manycore nodes, the abundance of parallelism, an increase in system faults (including soft errors) and a complicated, multi-component software environment are some of the most challenging issues we face. In this paper we address four topics we believe to be the most the challenging issues and therefore the greatest opportunities for making effective next-generation scalable applications. First and foremost is the need to transform existing applications to run on manycore platforms and properly design new applications. This is particularly challenging in the absence of a standard, portable manycore programming environment, but we can make progress in this direction while manycore programming models are developed. Second is promoting advanced modeling and simulation capabilities such as embedded optimization and uncertainty quantification that lead to higher quality results and orders of magnitude more parallelism. Third is progress toward fault resilience in applications, a critical need as system reliability degrades. Fourth and finally is a qualitative improvement in software design, including the social aspects, as exascale software systems will be increasingly multi-team and multi-faceted efforts.

AB Resonance ionization mass spectrometry offers extremely high sensitivity and elemental selectivity in microanalysis, but the isotopic precision attainable by this technique has been limited. Measured isotope ratios are sensitive to small fluctuations in the pointing, pulse timing, and wavelength of the resonance lasers. We show that, by minimizing these fluctuations using feedback controls and by power-broadening the optical transitions, we are able to measure chromium isotope ratios with statistics-limited precision better than 1%. Small additional improvements in reproducibility come from careful shaping of the electric field in the region where atoms are photoionized and from minimizing pulse-to-pulse variations in the time-of-flight mass spectrometer through which the photoions travel. The increased reproducibility of isotopic measurements on standard materials has enabled us to detect anomalous chromium isotopic abundances in presolar Sic grains extracted from primitive meteorites.

AB The Super Separator Spectrometer (S(3)) will receive the very high intensity heavy ion beams from the LINAG accelerator of SPIRAL2. Its privileged fields of physics are the delayed study of rare nuclei and secondary reactions with exotic nuclei. The project is presently in a phase of conceptual design. It includes a rotating target to sustain the high energy deposit, a two stages separator (momentum achromat) and spectrometer (mass spectrometer). Various detection set-ups are foreseen, especially a delayed alpha, gamma, and electron spectroscopy array and a gas catcher coupled to a low energy branch. We present here the current status of the project and its main features.

INDENTATION
AB Because of its ease of implementation and insensitivity to indenter drift, dynamic indentation techniques have been frequently used to measure mechanical properties of bulk and thin film materials as a function of indenter displacement. However, the actual effect of the oscillating tip on the material response has not been examined. Recently, it has been shown that the oscillation used with dynamic indentation techniques alters the measured hardness value of ductile metallic materials, especially at depths less than 200 nm. The alteration in the hardness is due to the added energy associated with the oscillation which assists dislocation nucleation. Atomistic simulations on nickel thin films agree with experiments that more dislocations are nucleated during dynamic indents than with quasi-static indents. Through the analysis of quasi-static and dynamic indents made into nickel single crystals and thin films, a theory to describe this phenomenon is presented. This is coined the Nano-jackhammer effect, a combination of dislocation nucleation and strain rate sensitivity caused by indentation with a superimposed dynamic oscillation. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

AB A spatially resolved X-ray diffraction method - with a submicron 3D resolution together with SEM and OIM analysis are applied to understand the arrangements of voids, geometrically necessary dislocations and strain gradient distributions in samples of Al (123) and Cu (001) single crystals shocked to incipient spallation fracture. We describe how geometrically necessary dislocations and the effective strain gradient alter white beam Laue patterns of the shocked materials. Several distinct structural zones are observed at different depths under the impact surface. The density of geometrically necessary dislocations (GNDs) is extremely high near the impact and back surface of the shock recovered crystals. The spall region is characterized by a large density of mesoscale voids and GNDs. The spall region is separated from the impact and back surfaces by compressed regions with high total dislocation density but lower GNDs density. Self-organization of shear bands is observed in the shock recovered Cu single crystal. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB An anaerobic thermophilic bacterium, designated strain JW/SA-NV4(T), was isolated from a xylan-supplemented enrichment culture from Trego hot spring located within the Black Rock Desert (NV, USA). Cells were generally straight or slightly bent rod-shaped, 0.4-0.8 mu m in width and 3-6 mu m in length during exponential growth. Cells from stationary phase were variable in size and shape, showing curved or bent morphology. Motility was not seen and flagella were not observed in electron micrographs. Sporulation was not observed. Strain JW/SA-NV4T stained Gram-negative but is phylogenetically Gram-type positive. Growth occurred at pH(25) (degrees C) 6.8-8.8, with optimum growth at PH 8.4; no growth occurred at PH 9.0 or above or at 6.5 or below. With glucose or xylose as the carbon source, strain JW/SA-NV4(T) grew at 44-74 degrees C; no growth occurred at 76 degrees C or above or at 42 degrees C or below. However, the optimum temperature was 62 and 66 degrees C when grown on glucose and xylose, respectively. The shortest doubling time observed with glucose was approximately 4 h, and with xylose approximately 3.4 h. Strain JW/SA-NV4(T) tolerated an atmosphere containing UP to 0-1% O(2); no growth occurred at a gas atmosphere of 0.2% O(2). Chemo-organotrophic growth occurred with xylose, glucose, mannose, xylan, pyruvate, fructose, ribose, Casamino acids, mannitol, tryptone, peptone, cellobiose and yeast extract. When grown in mineral media containing 1 g yeast extract I(-1) as an electron donor, thiosulfate and sulfur were reduced to sulfide. The G + C content of the DNA was 38.6 mol% (HPLC). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis placed strain JW/SA-NV4(T) within the order Thermoanaerobacterales and within the Thermoanaerobacterales Incertae Sedis Family III, specifically between taxa classified within the genera Thermosediminibacter and Thermovenabulum. The closest phylogenetic neighbours were Thermosediminibacter oceani JW/IW-1228P(T) (94.2% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity) and Thermosediminibacter litoriperuensis JW/YJL-1230-7/2(T) (94.0%) (Lee, Y.-J., Wagner, I. D., Brice, M. E., Kevbrin, V. V., Mills, G. L., Romanek, C. S. & Wiegel, J. (2005). Extremophiles 9, 375-383]. Based on physiological and genotypic characteristics, strain JW/SA-NV4(T) (=DSM 18802(T) =ATCC BAA-1454(T)) is proposed to represent the type strain of a novel species in a novel genus, Caldanaerovirga acetigignens gen. nov., sp. nov.

AB Strain JW/YJL-B18(T), a spore-forming, sulfate-reducing bacterium, was isolated from constructed wetland sediment. Cells were curved rods, 0.7-1.2 mu m in diameter and 3-7 mu m long. Despite being phylogenetically a member of the Gram-type-positive phylum Firmicutes, cells stained Gram-negative at all growth phases. Strain JW/YJL-B18(T) grew at 8-39 degrees C, with an optimum at 32-35 degrees C and no growth at 4 degrees C or below or at 42 degrees C or above. The pH(25 degrees C) range for growth was 5.7-8.2, with an optimum at pH(25 degrees C) 7.0-7.3, and no growth was detected at or below pH 5.2 or at or above pH 8.4. The salinity range for growth was 0-3% (NaCl/KCl 9:1). Strain JW/YJL-B18(T) utilized as carbon and energy sources beef extract, yeast extract, formate, succinate, lactate, pyruvate, ethanol and toluene. Fumarate, sulfate, sulfite and thiosulfate were reduced in the presence of lactate. Arsenate (V) was not used as an electron acceptor. Strain JW/YJL-B18(T) showed no indication of growth under autotrophic conditions. The predominant cellular fatty acids were C(16:1) and C(16:0). The genomic DNA G+C content was 36.6 mol% (HPLC). 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that strain JW/YJL-B18(T) fell into the genus Desulfosporosinus, with Desulfosporosinus auripigmenti OREX-4(T) as its closest neighbour with a validly published name (97.9% similarity). Based on molecular genetic evidence and physiological and biochemical characters including differences in the DNA G+C content, we propose to place strain JW/YJL-B18(T) (=DSM 17734(T) =ATCC BAA-1261(T)) as the type strain of a novel species, Desulfosporosinus youngiae sp. nov.

AB The activities of complex communities of microbes affect biogeochemical transformations in natural, managed and engineered ecosystems. Meaningfully defining what constitutes a community of interacting microbial populations is not trivial, but is important for rigorous progress in the field. Important elements of research in microbial community ecology include the analysis of functional pathways for nutrient resource and energy flows, mechanistic understanding of interactions between microbial populations and their environment, and the emergent properties of the complex community. Some emergent properties mirror those analyzed by community ecologists who study plants and animals: biological diversity, functional redundancy and system stability. However, because microbes possess mechanisms for the horizontal transfer of genetic information, the metagenome may also be considered as a community property.

AB Nickel/titanium nanolaminates fabricated by sputter deposition exhibited rapid, high-temperature synthesis. When heated locally, self-sustained reactions were produced in freestanding Ni/Ti) multilayer foils characterized by average propagation speeds between similar to 0.1 and 1.4 m/s. The speed of a propagating reaction front was affected by total foil thickness and bilayer thickness (layer periodicity). In contrast to previous work with compacted Ni-Ti powders, no preheating of Ni/Ti foils was required to maintain self-propagating reactions. High-temperature synthesis was also stimulated by rapid global heating demonstrating low ignition temperatures (T-Ig) similar to 300-400 degrees C for nanolaminates. Ignition temperature was influenced by bilayer thickness with more coarse laminate designs exhibiting increased T-Ig, Foils reacted in a vacuum apparatus developed either as single-phase B2 cubic NiTi (austenite) or as a mixed-phase structure that was composed of monoclinic B19' NiTi (martensite), hexagonal NiTi2, and B2 NiTi. Single-phase, cubic B2 NiTi generally formed when the initial bilayer thickness was made small. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3253591]

TI Tunable lattice strain in vertically aligned nanocomposite

ID NANOSTRUCTURES; GROWTH
AB Unique epitaxial two-phase vertically aligned nanocomposite (VAN) (BiFeO3)(x)center dot(Sm2O3)(1-x) thin films were deposited on SrTiO3(001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The VAN thin films exhibit a highly ordered vertical columnar structure with high epitaxial quality. We demonstrate that the strains of the two phases in both out-of-plane and in-plane directions call be tuned by the deposition parameters during growth, eg, deposition frequency and film composition of the nanocomposite The strain tunability is found to be directly related to the systematic variation in the column widths in the nanocomposite The dielectric property Measurement shows that increasing vertical strain control will lead to a systematic dielectric loss reduction in the VAN thin films. This study suggests a promising avenue in achieving tunable strain in functional oxide thin films by using VAN structures. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3257175]

AB The response of four Cubic metals to shock loading is reviewed in order to understand the effects of microstructure on continuum response. Experiments are described that link defect generation and storage mechanisms at the mesoscale to observations in the bulk. Four materials were reviewed: these were fcc nickel, the ordered fcc intermetallic Ni(3)Al, the bcc metal tantalum, and two alloys based on the intermetallic phase TiAl. Ti-46.5Al-2Cr-2Nb and Ti-48Al-2Cr-2Nb-1B. The experiments described are in two groups: first. equation of state and shear strength measurements using Manganin stress gauges and, second, postshock microstructural examinations and measurement of changes in mechanical properties. The behaviors described are linked through file description of time dependent plasticity mechanisms to the final states achieved. Recovered targets displayed dislocation microstructures Illustrating processes active during the shock-loading process Reloading of previously shock-prestrained samples illustrated shock strengthening for the fcc metals Ni and Ni(3)Al while showing 110 Such effect for bcc Ta and for the intermetallic TiAl This difference in effective shock hardening has been related, on the one hand, to the fact that bee metals have fewer available slip systems that can operate than fcc crystals and to the observation that the lower symmetry materials (Ta and TiAl) both possess high Peierls stress and thus have higher resistances to defect motion in the lattice Under shock-loading conditions. These behaviors, compared between these four materials. illustrate the role of defect generation. transport, storage, and interaction in determining the response of materials to shock prestraining.

AB This article reports or, the international Nanofluid Property Benchmark Exercise, or INPBE. in which the thermal conductivity of identical samples of colloidally stable dispersions of nanoparticles or "nanofluids", was measured by over 30 organizations worldwide, using, a variety of experimental approaches, including the transient hot wire method, steady-state methods, and optical methods. The nanofluids tested in the exercise were comprised of aqueous and nonaqueous basefluids, metal and metal oxide particles, near-spherical and elongated particles, at low and high particle concentrations. The data analysis reveals that the data from most organizations lie within a relatively narrow band (+/- 10% or less) about the sample average with only few outliers. The thermal conductivity of the nanofluids was found to increase with particle concentration and aspect ratio. as expected from classical theory. There are (small) systematic differences in the absolute values of the nanofluid thermal conductivity among the various experimental approaches; however. such differences tend to disappear when the data are normalized to the Measured thermal conductivity of the basefluid. The effective medium theory developed for dispersed particles by Maxwell in 1881 and recently generalized by Nan et al. [J. Appl. Phys. 81, 6692 (1997)], was found to be in good agreement with the experimental data, suggesting that no anomalous enhancement of thermal conductivity was achieved in the nanofluids tested in this exercise.

AB This paper presents a study of the total ac loss characteristics of a rolling-assisted biaxially textured Substrate (RABiTS) YBa2Cu3O7 (YBCO). sample exposed to a parallel ac magnetic field The results have shown that, for a given applied magnetic field and transport current, a RABiTS YBCO tape can generate very different magnitudes of ac loss, depending on whether the transport current and applied field have the same phase or opposite phase The results of this Study are very important for the optimization of the design of a RABiTS YBCO cable because they can suggest an appropriate arrangement of RABiTS tapes in a cable to minimize the cable ac loss. In this study, both experimental and finite-element method simulation approaches were employed. A modeling model that takes the magnetic field dependent permeability and ferromagnetic loss of the substrate into account reproduced well the experimental data for both self-field and total ac losses.

AB Nanocomposite (YBa2Cu3O7-x)(0) (5): (BaZrO3)(0 5) thin films were fabricated oil (00 1) oriented SrTiO3 Substrates by pulsed laser deposition using a single uniformly mixed target. Both x-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy revealed remarkable, spontaneous formation of YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) and BaZrO3 (BZO) multilayers. The high integrity and continuity of the multilayer made it possible to achieve a critical temperature of 88 K, given that the BaZrO3 fraction in the films is 50 mol %. The unique self-assembled microstructure led to a surprising field dependent critical current density along the ab plane. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3257238]

AB Cooking pots and bowls from two production locations ca. 200 m from each other at the rural settlement of Kefar Hananya in Roman Galilee were compared employing chemical element composition and vessel-shape analyses. Splits of each pulverized sample, all of which were taken from ceramic wasters, were analyzed by both instrumental neutron activation and high-precision X-ray fluorescence analyses, and computerized vessel-shape analysis was employed for morphological analysis of the same vessel forms from each location. Several statistical techniques (bivariate plots, principal component analysis, cluster analysis and discriminant analysis) were used for analyzing the resultant data. It was found that both the cooking pots and bowls made at each location could be distinguished by employing either chemical composition or morphological analysis. The implications of this work, with regard to investigating both production and consumption sites, and for pottery provenance studies, are discussed. The findings suggest that these analytical techniques can be useful as an aid for chronological differentiations of archaeological pottery. (c) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A noninvasive method for estimating regional myocardial contractility in vivo would be of great value in the design and evaluation of new surgical and medical strategies to treat and/or prevent infarction-induced heart failure. As a first step toward developing such a method, an explicit finite element (FE) model-based formal optimization of regional myocardial contractility in a sheep with left ventricular (LV) aneurysm was performed using tagged magnetic resonance (MR) images and cardiac catheterization pressures. From the tagged MR images, three-dimensional (3D) myocardial strains, LV volumes, and geometry for the animal-specific 3D FE model of the LV were calculated, while the LV pressures provided physiological loading conditions. Active material parameters (T(max_B) and T(max_R)) in the noninfarcted myocardium adjacent to the aneurysm (border-zone) and in the myocardium remote from the aneurysm were estimated by minimizing the errors between FE model-predicted and measured systolic strains and LV volumes using the successive response surface method for optimization. The significant depression in optimized T(max_B) relative to T(max_R) was confirmed by direct ex vivo force measurements from skinned fiber preparations. The optimized values of T(max_B) and T(max_R) were not overly sensitive to the passive material parameters specified. The computation time of less than 5 h associated with our proposed method for estimating regional myocardial contractility in vivo makes it a potentially very useful clinical tool.

AB Metal-based drugs are largely undeveloped in pharmacology. One limiting factor is the systemic toxicity of metal-based compounds. A solid-phase, sequestratable delivery agent for local delivery of metals could reduce systemic toxicity, facilitating new drug development in this nascent area. Amorphous peroxotitanates (APT) are ion-exchange materials with high affinity for several heavy metal ions and have been proposed to deliver or sequester metal ions in biological contexts. In the current study, we tested a hypothesis that APTs are able to deliver metals or metal compounds to cells. We exposed fibroblasts (L929) or monocytes (THP1) to metal-APT materials for 72 h in vitro and then measured cellular mitochondrial activity (SDH-MTT method) to assess the biological impact of the metal-APT materials versus metals or APT alone. APT alone did not significantly affect cellular mitochondrial activity, but all metal-APT materials suppressed the mitochondrial activity of fibroblasts (by 30-65% of controls). The concentration of metal-APT materials required to suppress cellular mitochondrial activity was below that required for metals alone, suggesting that simple extracellular release of the metals from the metal-APT materials was not the primary mechanism of mitochondrial suppression. In contrast to fibroblasts, no metal-APT material had a measurable effect on THPI monocyte mitochondrial activity, despite potent suppression by metals alone. This latter result suggested that "biodelivery" by metal-APT materials may be cell type-specific. Therefore, it appears that APTs are plausible solid-phase delivery agents of metals or metal compounds to some types of cells for potential therapeutic effect.

AB Hydrated polymer coatings on polymer substrates are common for many biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering constructs; contact lenses, and catheters. The thickness of the coatings can affect the mechanical behavior of the systems and the cellular response, but measuring the coating thickness can be quite challenging using conventional methods. We propose a new method, that is, attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR-FTIR) to determine the relative thickness, combined with atomic force microscopy to calibrate the ATR-FTIR measurements. This technique was successfully employed to determine the hydrated thickness of a series of crosslinked tetraglyme coatings on ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene substrates intended to reduce wear of acetabular cups in total hip replacements. The hydrated coatings ranged from 30 to 200 nm thick and were accurately measured despite the relatively high root-mean-square (RMS) roughness of the substrates, 20-35 nm (peak-to-peak roughness 55-100 nm). The calibrated ATR-FTIR technique is a promising new method for measuring the thickness of many other polymer-on-polymer and hydrated coatings. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

AB Raman and infrared (IR) spectroscopy are two complementary vibrational spectroscopic techniques that have experienced a tremendous growth in their use in biological and biomedical research. This is, in large part, due to their unique capability of providing label-free intrinsic chemical information of living biological samples at tissue, cellular, or sub-cellular resolutions. This article reviews recent developments in applying these techniques for the characterization of stem cells. A discussion of the potential for these methods to address some of the major challenges in stem cell research is presented, as well as the technological and scientific advancements that are needed to progress the knowledge in the field.

AB Faithful segregation of genetic material during cell division requires the dynamic but robust attachment of chromosomes to spindle microtubules during all stages of mitosis. This regulated attachment occurs at kinetochores, which are complex protein organelles that are essential for cell survival and genome integrity. In budding yeast, in which a single microtubule attaches per kinetochore, a heterodecamer known as the Dam1 complex (or DASH complex) is required for proper chromosome segregation. Recent years have seen a burst of structural and biophysical data concerning this interesting complex, which has caught the attention of the mitosis research field. In vitro, the Dam1 complex interacts directly with tubulin and self-assembles into ring structures around the microtubule surface. The ring is capable of tracking with depolymerizing ends, and a model has been proposed whereby the circular geometry of the oligomeric Dam1 complex allows it to couple the depolymerization of microtubules to processive chromosome movement in the absence of any additional energy source. Although it is attractive and simple, several important aspects of this model remain controversial. Additionally, the generality of the Dam1 mechanism has been questioned owing to the fact that there are no obvious Dam1 homologs beyond fungi. In this Commentary, we discuss recent structure-function studies of this intriguing complex.

AB The reactivity of the labile cluster Os-3(CO)(10)(MeCN)(2) (1) with the monofunctionalized heterocyclic ligands 6-R-2,2'-bipyridine (where R = Et, Ph) has been investigated. The alkyl-substituted heterocycle 6-Et-2,2'-bipyridine reacts with 1 in refluxing CH2Cl2 to give an isomeric mixture of HOs3(CO)(9)(N2C12H11) due to cyclometalation of the side-chain ethyl group (2) and ortho metalation of the unsubstituted bipyridine ring (3). The solid-state structure of the latter cluster, HOs3(CO)(9)(N2C10H6-6-Et) (3), has unequivocally established the site of the C-H bond activation in the product. Treatment of 1 with the aryl-substituted ligand 6-Ph-2,2'-bipyridine proceeds similarly with ortho metalation at the ancillary phenyl group and the C-6' ortho site of the unsubstituted bipyridine ring, as verified by H-1 NMR spectroscopy. The X-ray diffraction structure of the thermodynamically more stable bipyridine-metalated cluster HOs3(CO)(9)(N2C10H6-6-Ph) (5) has been determined. The course of these reactions is discussed with respect to our recent study involving the reaction of cluster 1 with the ligand 6-Me-2,2'-bipyridine.

AB The electronic properties of defected TiO2 were investigated using the first-principles calculations based on density functional theory and generalized gradient approximation. Three typical defects, oxygen vacancy, titanium interstitial, and titanium vacancy, were considered in three TiO2 polymorphs, anatase, rutile, and brookite, respectively. Our calculations demonstrated that the defect band is formed by removing an oxygen atom from or inserting an interstitial Ti atom into the TiO2 lattice, which is responsible for the improvement of photocatalytic ability due to the enhanced visible-light absorption. Our calculations further revealed that the defect formation energy increases as following brockite, anatase, and rutile, indicating that defects are easy to be created in brookite TiO2. The relatively high defect density and wide defect band contribute to the better photocatalytic performance of brookite TiO2 in visible light.

AB M3D-C(1) is an implicit, high-order finite element code for the solution of the time-dependent nonlinear two-fluid magnetohydrodynamic equations [S.C. Jardin, J. Breslau, N. Ferraro, A high-order implicit finite element method for integrating the two-fluid magnetohydrodynamic equations in two dimensions, J. Comp. Phys. 226 (2) (2007) 2146-2174]. This code has now been extended to allow computations in toroidal geometry. Improvements to the spatial integration and time-stepping algorithms are discussed. Steady-states of a resistive two-fluid model, self-consistently including flows, anisotropic viscosity (including gyroviscosity) and heat flux, are calculated for diverted plasmas in geometries typical of the National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) [M. Ono et al., Exploration of spherical torus physics in the NSTX device, Nucl. Fusion 40 (3Y) (2000) 557-561]. These states are found by time-integrating the dynamical equations until the steady-state is reached, and are therefore stationary or statistically steady on both magnetohydrodynamic and transport time-scales. Resistively driven cross-surface flows are found to be in close agreement with Pfirsch-Schlilter theory. Poloidally varying toroidal flows are in agreement with comparable calculations [A.Y. Aydemir, Shear flows at the tokamak edge and their interaction with edge-localized modes, Phys. Plasmas 14]. New effects on core toroidal rotation due to gyroviscosity and a local particle source are observed. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

The method couples time parallel (TP) and CWM methods operating at different spatial and temporal scales. We demonstrate the efficiency of our approach on two examples: a chemical reaction kinetic system and a non-linear predator-prey system. Our results indicate that the tpCWM technique is capable of accelerating time-to-solution by 2-3-orders of magnitude and is amenable to efficient parallel implementation. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc.

AB Quantitative studies of material properties and interfaces using the atomic force microscope (AFM) have important applications in engineering, biotechnology, and chemistry. Contrary to what the name suggests, the AFM actually measures the displacement of a microscale probe, so one must determine the stiffness of the probe to find the force exerted on a sample. Numerous methods have been proposed for determining the spring constant of AFM cantilever probes, yet most neglect the mass of the probe tip. This work explores the effect of the tip mass on AFM calibration using the method of Sader (1995, "Method for the Calibration of Atomic Force Microscope Cantilevers," Rev. Sci. Instrum., 66, pp. 3789) and extends that method to account for a massive, rigid tip. One can use this modified method to estimate the spring constant of a cantilever from the measured natural frequency and Q-factor for any mode of the probe. This may be helpful when the fundamental mode is difficult to measure or to check for inaccuracies in the calibration obtained with the fundamental mode. The error analysis presented here shows that if the tip is not considered, then the error in the static stiffness is roughly of the same order as the ratio of the tip's mass to the cantilever beam's. The area density of the AFM probe is also misestimated if the tip mass is not accounted for, although the trends are different. The model presented here can be used to identify the mass of a probe tip from measurements of the natural frequencies of the probe. These concepts are applied to six low spring-constant, contact-mode AFM cantilevers, and the results suggest that some of the probes are well modeled by an Euler-Bernoulli beam with a constant cross section and a rigid tip, while others are not. One probe is examined in detail, using scanning electron microscopy to quantify the size of the tip and the thickness uniformity of the probe, and laser Doppler vibrometry is used to measure the first four mode shapes. The results suggest that this probe's thickness is significantly nonuniform, so the models upon which dynamic calibration is based may not be appropriate for this probe.

AB The near-nozzle structure of several nonevaporating biodiesel-blend sprays has been studied using X-ray radiography. Radiography allows quantitative measurements of the fuel distribution in sprays to be made with high temporal and spatial resolution. Measurements have been made at different values of injection pressure, ambient density, and with two different nozzle geometries to understand the influences of these parameters on the spray structure of the biodiesel blend. These measurements have been compared with corresponding measurements of Viscor, a diesel calibration fluid, to demonstrate the fuel effects on the spray structure. Generally, the biodiesel-blend spray has a similar structure to the spray of Viscor. For the nonhydroground nozzle used in this study, the biodiesel-blend spray has a slightly slower penetration into the ambient gas than the Viscor spray. The cone angle of the biodiesel-blend spray is generally smaller than that of the Viscor spray, indicating that the biodiesel-blend spray is denser than the Viscor spray. For the hydroground nozzle, both fuels produce sprays with initially wide cone angles that transition to narrow sprays during the steady-state portion of the injection event. These variations in cone angle with time occur later for the biodiesel-blend spray than for the Viscor spray, indicating that the dynamics of the injector needle as it opens are somewhat different for the two fuels.

AB Corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) regulations specify minimum standards for fuel efficiency that vehicle manufacturers must meet independently. We design a system of tradeable fuel economy credits that allows trading across vehicle classes and manufacturers with and without considering market power in the credit market. We perform numerical simulations to measure the potential cost savings from moving from the current CAFE system to one with stricter standards, but that allows vehicle manufacturers various levels of increased flexibility. We find that the ability for each manufacturer to average credits between its cars and trucks provides a large percentage of the potential savings. As expected, the greatest savings come from the greatest flexibility in the credit system. Market power lowers the potential cost savings to the industry as a whole, but only modestly. Loss in efficiency from market power does not eliminate the gains from credit trading. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB The analysis of the isotopic composition of nuclear or non-nuclear solid materials is performed in a variety of fields, e.g., for quality, assurance in the production of nuclear fuels, as signatures in forensics, nuclear safeguards, and non-proliferation control, in material characterization, geology, and archeology. We have investigated the capability of laser ablation (New Wave Research, 213 nm) coupled to time-of-flight (TOF) ICP-MS (GBC OptiMass 8000) as a rapid analytical protocol for multi-isotope screening of nuclear and non-nuclear solid samples. This includes natural and non-natural isotopic compositions for elements including Cu. Zr, Mo, Cd, In, Ba, Ta, W, Re, Pt, Pb, and U, in pure metals, alloys, and glasses. Without correcting for mass bias (mass fractionation), an overall precision and accuracy of about 4% (1 sigma) can be achieved by minimizing the deposited laser power and thus fractionation (mass removal based on thermal properties). The precision and accuracy in combination with literally no or minimized sample preparation enables a rapid isotope screening of solid samples that is of particular interest to support nuclear forensic and safeguard analysis.

AB The objective of this study was to evaluate the quantitative relation between measured red blood cell acetylcholinesterase (RBC AChE) and plasma butyrylcholinesterase (BuChE) activities with exposure to chlorpyrifos (CPF) as assessed by measurement of urinary 3,5,6-trichloro-2-pyridinol (TCPy) in a study group of workers occupationally exposed in the manufacture of CPF and a referent group of chemical manufacturing workers. Measures of plasma BuChE and RBC AChE activity and urinary TCPy concentration collected over a year-long study (1999-2000) in CPF-exposed workers (n = 53) and referents (n = 60) were analyzed using linear mixed models to characterize exposure-response relationships. Intraindividual variability in cholinesterase measures was compared between CPF-exposed workers and referents. Urinary TCPy concentrations in CPF workers were substantially elevated compared to referents, with median and 95th percentile concentrations during typical employment conditions 10-fold and more than 30-fold higher, respectively, than corresponding measures in the referents. Intraindividual variability in cholinesterase activities was substantial, with 17% of unexposed referents experiencing one or more plasma BuChE measures more than 20% below baseline over a year of repeated, periodic measurements. RBC AChE activity, an early biomarker of effect, was unrelated to urinary TCPy concentration over the entire range of exposure, up to 1000 mu g TCPy/g creatinine (Cr). Plasma BuChE activity, a non-adverse biomarker of exposure, was negatively related to urinary TCPy concentrations above approximately 110 mu g TCPy/g Cr. No-effect levels for inhibition of plasma BuChE and RBC AChE corresponding to absorbed doses of CPF of approximately 5 and greater than 50 mu g/kg/day, respectively, were identified. These findings are consistent with previous no-effect level determinations for ChE inhibition in humans and suggest that general population CPF exposure levels are substantially below the identified no-effect levels. The dose-response relationships observed in this study are consistent with predictions from the previously published physiologically based pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic model for CPF. Intraindividual variability in measured cholinesterase activities in referents was substantial, suggesting that ongoing monitoring programs may have a substantial rate of false positives.

TI Hadron mass corrections in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering
SO JOURNAL OF HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS

DT Article
DE Deep Inelastic Scattering; Parton Model; QCD
ID TARGET; FRAGMENTATION; MULTIPLICITY; DUALITY; PIONS; SUM
AB We derive mass corrections for semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering of leptons from nucleons using a collinear factorization framework which incorporates the initial state mass of the target nucleon and the final state mass of the produced hadron. The formalism is constructed specifically to ensure that physical kinematic thresholds for the semi-inclusive process are explicitly respected. A systematic study of the kinematic dependencies of the mass corrections to semi-inclusive cross sections reveals that these are even larger than for inclusive structure functions, especially at very small and very large hadron momentum fractions. The hadron mass corrections compete with the experimental uncertainties at kinematics typical of current facilities, and will be important to efforts at extracting parton distributions or fragmentation functions from semi-inclusive processes at intermediate energies.

AB We analyze the breaking of the Wandzura-Wilczek relation for the g(2) structure function, emphasizing its connection with transverse momentum dependent parton distribution functions. We find that the relation is broken by two distinct twist-3 terms, and clarify how these can be separated in measurements of double-spin asymmetries in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering. Through a quantitative analysis of available g(2) data we also show that the breaking of the Wandzura-Wilczek relation can be as large as 15-40% of the size of g(2).

AB Hard exclusive leptoproduction of real photons from an unpolarized proton target is studied in an effort to elucidate generalized parton distributions. The data accumulated during the years 1996-2005 with the HERMES spectrometer are analyzed to yield asymmetries with respect to the combined dependence of the cross section on beam helicity and charge, thereby revealing previously unseparated contributions from deeply virtual Compton scattering and its interference with the Bethe-Heitler process. The integrated luminosity is sufficient to show correlated dependences on two kinematic variables, and provides the most precise determination of the dependence on only the beam charge.

AB Within the gauge/gravity correspondence, we discuss the general formulation of the shockwave metric which is dual to a 'nucleus' described by the strongly-coupled N = 4 SYM theory in the limit where the number of colors N-c is arbitrarily large. We emphasize that the 'nucleus' must possess N-c(2) degrees of freedom per unit volume, so like a finite-temperature plasma, in order for a supergravity description to exist. We critically reassess previous proposals for introducing transverse inhomogeneity in the shockwave and formulate a new proposal in that sense, which involves no external source but requires the introduction of an 'infrared' cutoff which mimics confinement. This cutoff however plays no role when the shockwave is probed by a highly virtual projectile, so like in deep inelastic scattering. We consider two such projectiles, the dilaton and the R-current, and compute the respective structure functions including unitarity corrections. We find that there are no leading-twist contributions to the structure functions at high virtuality, meaning that there are no point-like constituents in the strongly coupled 'nucleus'. In the black-disk regime at low virtuality, the structure functions are suggestive of parton saturation with occupation numbers of order one. The saturation momentum Q(s) grows with the energy like Q(s)(2)similar to 1/x (with x the Bjorken variable), which is the hallmark of graviton exchanges and is also necessary for the fulfillment of the energy-momentum sum rules.

AB It is usually assumed that dark matter direct detection is sensitive to a large fraction of the dark matter (DM) velocity distribution. We propose an alternative form of dark matter-nucleus scattering which only probes a narrow range of DM velocities due to the existence of a resonance, a DM-nucleus bound state, in the scattering-resonant dark matter (rDM). The scattering cross section becomes highly element dependent, has increased modulation and as a result can explain the DAMA/LIBRA results whilst not being in conflict with other direct detection experiments. We describe a simple model that realizes the dynamics of rDM, where the DM is the neutral component of a fermionic weak triplet whose charged partners differ in mass by approximately 10MeV.

AB We discuss the cosmic ray spectra in annihilating/decaying Nambu-Goldstone dark matter models. The recent observed positron/electron excesses at PAMELA and Fermi experiments are well fitted by the dark matter with a mass of 3 TeV for the annihilating model, while with a mass of 6 TeV for the decaying model. We also show that the Nambu- Goldstone dark matter models predict a distinctive gamma-ray spectrum in a certain parameter space.

AB Bump bonding is a superior assembly alternative compared to conventional wire bond techniques. It offers a highly reliable connection with greatly reduced parasitic properties. The Flip Chip on Board (FCOB) procedure is an especially attractive packaging method for applications requiring a large number of connections at moderate pitch. This paper reports on the successful demonstration of FCOB assembly based on solder bumps down to 250 mu m pitch using a SUSS MA8 mask aligner at Fermilab. The assembly procedure will be described, microscopic cross sections of the connections are shown, and first measurements on the contact resistance are presented.

AB This review addresses the quantum mechanical nature of the formation and stability of ultrathin metal films. The competition between quantum confinement, charge spilling effects, and Friedel oscillations determines whether an atomically smooth metal film will be marginally, critically, or magically stable or totally unstable against roughening. Pb(111) films represent a special case, not only because of strong quantum oscillations in the stability of two-dimensional thin films but also because of the exceptionally fast coarsening of Pb nanoclusters. The latter appears to be due to the combined effects of size quantization and the existence of a unique mass exchange medium in the form of an unusually dense and highly dynamic wetting layer. The consequences of size quantization on the physical and chemical properties of the films are profound, some of which will be highlighted in this review.

AB We have computed CH4/H-2 mixture adsorption isotherms and mixture self-diffusivities in Zn(tbip), a nanoporous metal organic material, at 298 K using grand canonical Monte Carlo and equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations. We calculated the adsorption and diffusion selectivities from our simulation results. An approximate model was used to estimate the maximum membrane selectivities. The adsorption selectivity very strongly favors CH4 over H-2, whereas the diffusion selectivity favors H-2 over CH4. We find that the adsorption selectivity dominates the mixture selectivity, giving values in the range of 6-50 CH4/H-2. This indicates that Zn(tbip) may be useful for separating CH4/H-2 mixtures.

AB Recent discoveries of novel materials exhibiting a magnetocaloric effect that is strongly enhanced by the magnetoelastic coupling - the so-called giant magnetocaloric effect materials - stimulated an unprecedented expansion of research related both to the fundamentals of the phenomenon and potential future applications of these materials in continuous magnetic cooling near room temperature. The subject of this work is two fold. On one hand, systems exhibiting the giant magneto caloric effect may be prone to hysteresis, and may exist in nonequilibrium, phase-separated states, thus requiring a special care when their intrinsic physical properties are of interest. On the other hand, in order to harvest most of the magnetocaloric potential of a specific compound, both the magnetic and lattice degrees of freedom of the material must be precisely controlled.

AB This paper reports a neutron powder diffraction study of CaMn2Sb2 in the temperature range of 20-300K. Collinear long-range antiferromagnetic order of manganese ions occurs below 85 K, where a transition is observed in the dc magnetic susceptibility measured with a single crystal. Short-range magnetic order, characterized by a broad diffraction peak corresponding to a d-spacing of approximately 4 angstrom(2 theta approximate to 22 degrees), is also observed above 20K. The long-range antiferromagnetic order is indexed by the chemical unit cell, indicating a propagation vector k = (000), with a refined magnetic moment of 3.38 mu(B) at 20 K. Two possible magnetic models have been identified, which differ in spin orientation for the two manganese ions with respect to the ab plane. The model with spins oriented at a 25 +/- 2 degrees angle relative to the ab plane gives an improved fit compared to the other model in which the spins are constrained to the ab plane. Representational analysis can account for a model involving a c-axis component only by the mixing of two irreducible representations. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Magnetic fields are applied along different crystallographic directions and RF penetration-depth was measured using a tunnel-diode oscillator (DO) circuit. The sample is coupled to the inductive element of a TDO resonant tank circuit, and the shift in the resonant frequency Delta f of the circuit is measured. The UNiX compounds exhibit field-induced magnetic transitions at low temperatures, and those transitions are accompanied by a drastic change in Delta f. The results of our skin-depth measurements were compared with previously published B-T phase diagrams for these three compounds. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The structure and magnetic properties of Co-containing zeolites prepared by wet impregnation were investigated. The samples were calcined and then reduced in flowing H(2). The samples studied have large saturation magnetization due to the presence of cubic Co particles over a wide range of sizes. The zero field cooling-field cooling curves show a sharp magnetization peak with a blocking temperature around 7 K followed by an exponential decay and two other peaks - of much lower amplitude - around 160 and 280 K. The low temperature peak is analyzed considering first, at T(crit), thermal relaxation toward equilibrium over an energy barrier, with increasing viscosity S with T. Above T(crit) relaxation does not occur and viscosity abruptly goes to zero. The behavior of the smallest Co particles is unusual above the blocking temperature. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

TI Nanostructure development in photodeposited, titania-based thin films
SO JOURNAL OF MATERIALS RESEARCH
LA English
DT Article
ID SIMULATION; ALKOXIDES
AB Ultraviolet irradiation (lambda = 248 nm) was used to photocatalyze a solution of the heteroleptic titanium alkoxide (OPY)(2)Ti(TAP)(2) [where OPy = pyridine carbinoxide and TAP = 2,4,6 tris(dimethylamino)phenoxide], leading to the deposition of a titania-based thin film only in the exposed region. The effect of water addition to the (OPY)(2)Ti(TAP)(2) pyridine solution on the properties of the final photodeposited film structure was examined by using vibrational spectroscopy and electron microscopy. Under consistent optical exposure conditions, the amount of water added altered the nanoscale porosity of the final material produced. Films deposited from a solution with a 1:1 H(2)O/Ti content exhibited surface pores similar to 100 nm in diameter, whereas a 4:1 ratio yielded 10-nm pores, and material produced from a 8:1 solution appeared fully condensed. In addition, the effect of postdeposition thermal treatments on the nanostructure and chemistry of the photodeposited films was examined.

ID AURIVILLIUS PHASES; CERAMICS
AB In a recent report, the evaluation of the phase relations in the Bi2O3-TiO2-WO3 ternary system has shown the existence of a new phase with nominal composition close to Bi6Ti5WO22. In the present contribution we attempt to prepare this single phase by using a solid state route. Although XRD analyses also show traces of two minority Aurivillius-type phases in the synthesized materials, the crystal structure of the Bi6Ti5WO22 phase has been determined by Rietveld analyses revealing a complex structure similar to that of Bi-3(AlSb2)O-11 and PbHoAl3O8 related compounds. The electrical response of this new phase was characterized as well. Three peaks are observed in its dielectric response: two of them positioned around 0 A degrees C and can be assigned to this Bi6Ti5WO22 structure. The third one rises up to 665 A degrees C and confirms the presence of the Aurivillius-type phases.

AB X-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) and Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS) measurements were performed on thiol capped Au nanoparticles (NPs) embedded into polyethylene. An XMCD signal of 0.8 . 10(-4) was found at the Au L(3) edge of thiol capped Au NPs embedded in a polyethylene matrix for which Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) magnetometry yielded a saturation magnetization, M(S), of 0.06 emu/g(Au). SANS measurements showed that the 3.2 nm average-diameter nanoparticles are 28% polydispersed, but no detectable SANS magnetic signal was found with the resolution and sensitivity accessible with the neutron experiment. A comparison with previous experiments carried out on Au NP(S) and multilayers, yield to different values between XMCD signals and magnetization measured by SQUID magnetometer. We discuss the origin of those differences.

ID THERMAL-EXPANSION; MONTE-CARLO; GRAPHITE; RELEASE; TRANSPORT; BEHAVIOR;
CARBON; GASES; TUBES
AB Generally, the transport of gases and vapors in nuclear materials is adequately described by the diffusion equation with an effective diffusion coefficient. There are instances however, in which the flow pathway can be so restrictive that the diffusion description has limitations. In general, molecular transport is governed by intermolecular forces and collisions (interactions between multiple gas/vapor molecules) and by molecule-surface interactions. However, if nano-scale pathways exist within these materials, as has been Suggested, then molecular transport can be characterized as being in the free-molecular flow regime where intermolecular interactions can be ignored and flow is determined entirely by molecule-surface collisions. Our purpose in this investigation is to focus on free-molecular transport in fine capillaries of a range of shapes and to explore the effect of geometry on this transport. We have employed Monte Carlo techniques in Our calculations, and for simple geometries we have benchmarked our results against some analytical and previously available results. We have used Mathematica (R) which has exceptional built-in symbolic and graphical capabilities, permitting easy handling of complicated geometries and good visualization of the results. Our computations provide insights into the role of geometry in molecular transport in nuclear materials with narrow pathways for flows, and also will be useful in guiding computations that include intermolecular collisions and more realistic gas-surface collision operators.

AB We, for the first time, propose a phase-field model to simulate the evolution of void ensembles under irradiation. The model takes into account one-dimensional migration of self-interstitial atoms (I-D SIA), vacancy diffusion, the generation and reaction between SIA and vacancies as well as the nucleation of voids. A one-dimensional random walker model (based on the theory of first-passage processes) is,applied to describe the fast 1-D SIA while the Cahn-Hilliard equation is used to describe the slow three dimensional diffusion of vacancies. The coupling of these two methods greatly improves the computational efficiency for a system with strong inhomogeneity and anisotropy of diffusion. The formation of void lattices is simulated with the resultant model. It is found that a void lattice forms when the mobility of the 1-D SIA is four orders of magnitude larger than that of the vacancy mobility. A high generation rate of interstitials during displacement cascades delays the formation of a void lattice. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB To supplement the understanding of diffusional interactions involving Al-rich region of the U-Mo-Al system, alloys with composition 85.7Al-11.44U-2.86Mo and 87.5Al-10U-2.5Mo in at.%, were examined to determine the equilibrium phase constituents at 500 degrees C. These alloys were triple arc-melted, homogenized at 500 degrees C for 200 h, and water-quenched to preserve the high temperature microstructure. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (XEDS). and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with high angle annular dark field (HAADF) imaging via scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) were employed for the characterization. Alloy specimens for TEM/STEM were prepared using site-specific focused ion beam (FIB) in situ lift-out (INLO) technique. Despite the homogenization time and temperature, five different phases, namely fcc-Al solid solution, cubic-UAl(3), orthorhombic-UAl(4), hexagonal-U(6)Mo(4)Al(43) and diamond cubiC-UMo(2)Al(20), were observed. Based on U-Al, U-Mo and Al-Mo binary phase diagrams, previously proposed U-Mo-Al isotherms, and the solidification microstructure of these alloys, the Al-rich region of the equilibrium ternary isotherm at 500 degrees C was constructed. The fcc-Al solid solution, orthorhombic-UAl(4), and diamond cubic-UMo(2)Al(20) which were determined to be the equilibrium phases in 85.7Al-11.44U-2.86Mo and 87.5Al-10U-2.5Mo alloys.

AB This paper demonstrates that NF3 fluorinates uranium metal, UO2, UF4, UO3, U3O8, and UO2F2-2H(2)O to produce the volatile UF6 at temperatures between 100 and 550 degrees C. Thermogravim etric and differential thermal analysis reaction profiles are described that reflect changes in the uranium fluorination/oxidation state, physiochemical effects, and instances of discrete chemical speciation. Large differences in the onset temperatures for each system investigated implicate changes in mode of the NF3 gas-solid surface interaction. These studies also demonstrate that NF3 is a potential replacement fluorinating agent in the existing nuclear fuel cycle and in actinide volatility reprocessing. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB We study the coupled thermal transport, oxygen diffusion, and thermal expansion of a typical nuclear fuel element consisting of UO2+x fuel and stainless-steel cladding. Models of thermal, mechanical and chemical properties of the materials are used in a series of finite-element simulations to study the effect of the coupled phenomena on the temperature profile, oxygen distribution and radial deformation of the fuel element. The simulations include steady-state and time-dependent regimes in a variety of initial- and boundary value conditions that include sudden changes in the power density, variable oxygen content in the atmosphere, and variable temperature of the coolant. The study reveals the difference in the characteristic times associated with these phenomena and the importance of performing coupled simulations. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI New generation nuclear fuel structures: Dense particles in selectively
soluble matrix
SO JOURNAL OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS
LA English
DT Article
ID MGO
AB We have developed a technology for dispersing sub-millimeter sized fuel particles within a bulk matrix that can be selectively dissolved. This may enable the generation of advanced nuclear fuels with easy separation of actinides and fission products. The large kinetic energy of the fission products results in most of them escaping from the sub-millimeter sized fuel particles and depositing in the matrix during burning of the fuel in the reactor. After the fuel is used and allowed to cool for a period of time, the matrix can be dissolved and the fission products removed for disposal while the fuel particles are collected by filtration for recycle. The success of such an approach would meet a major goal of the GNEP program to provide advanced recycle technology for nuclear energy production. The benefits of such an approach include (I) greatly reduced cost of the actinide/fission product separation process, (2) ease of recycle of the fuel particles, and (3) a radiation barrier to prevent theft or diversion of the recycled fuel particles during the time they are re-fabricated into new fuel. In this study we describe a method to make surrogate nuclear fuels of micrometer scale W (shell)/Mo (core) or HfO(2) particles embedded in an MgO matrix that allows easy separation of the fission products and their embedded particles. In brief, the method consists of physically mixing W-Mo or hafnia particles with an MgO precursor. Heating the mixture, in air or argon, without agitation, to a temperature is required for complete decomposition of the precursor. The resulting material was examined using chemical analysis, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and micro X-ray computed tomography and found to consist of evenly dispersed particles in an MgO + matrix. We believe this methodology can be extended to actinides and other matrix materials. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Electromagnetic metamaterials are composed of periodically arranged artificial structures. They show peculiar properties, such as negative refraction and super-lensing, which are not seen in natural materials. The conventional metamaterials require both negative epsilon and negative mu to achieve negative refraction. Chiral metamaterial is a new class of metamaterials offering a simpler route to negative refraction. In this paper, we briefly review the history of metamaterials and the developments on chiral metamaterials. We study the wave propagation properties in chiral metamaterials and show that negative refraction can be realized in chiral metamaterials with a strong chirality, with neither epsilon nor mu negative required. We have developed a retrieval procedure, adopting a uniaxial bi-isotropic model to calculate the effective parameters such as n +/-, kappa, epsilon and mu of the chiral metamaterials. Our work on the design, numerical calculations and experimental measurements of chiral metamaterials is introduced. Strong chiral behaviors such as optical activity and circular dichroism are observed and negative refraction is obtained for circularly polarized waves in these chiral metamaterials. We show that 3D isotropic chiral metamaterials can eventually be realized.

OCEAN CIRCULATION; SOUTHEAST PACIFIC; ARGENTINE BASIN; RESONANCE
AB The barotropic intraseasonal variability in the Australia-Antarctic Basin (AAB) is studied in terms of the excitation and decay of topographically trapped barotropic modes. The main objective is to reconcile two widely differing estimates of the decay rate of sea surface height (SSH) anomalies in the AAB that are assumed to be related to barotropic modes. First, an empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis is applied to almost 15 years of altimeter data. The analysis suggests that several modes are involved in the variability of the AAB, each related to distinct areas with (almost) closed contours of potential vorticity. Second, the dominant normal modes of the AAB are determined in a barotropic shallow-water (SW) model. These stationary modes are confined by the closed contours of potential vorticity that surround the eastern AAB, and the crest of the Southeast Indian Ridge. For reasonable values of horizontal eddy viscosity and bottom friction, their decay time scale is on the order of several weeks. Third, the SW model is forced with realistic winds and integrated for several years. Projection of the modal velocity patterns onto the output fields shows that the barotropic modes are indeed excited in the model, and that they decay slowly on the frictional O(3 weeks) time scale. However, the SSH anomalies in the modal areas display rapid O(4 days) decay. Additional analysis shows that this rapid decay reflects the adjustment of unbalanced flow components through the emission of Rossby waves. Resonant excitation of the dominant free modes accounts for about 20% of the SSH variability in the forced-model run. Other mechanisms are suggested to explain the region of high SSH variability in the AAB.

ID ENERGIES
AB We show an explicit attempt to interpret the multi-muon anomaly recently claimed by the CDF Collaboration in terms of a light scalar singlet phi which communicates with the standard quarks either through a heavy scalar or a heavy fermion exchange. Building on arXiv:0810.5730, that suggested a singlet phi with a chain decay into a final state made of four tau(tau) over bar pairs, we can simulate most of the muon properties of the selected sample of events. Some of these properties adhere rather well to the already published data; others should allow a decisive test of the proposed interpretation. Assuming that the test is positively passed, we show how the PAMELA excess can be fitted by the annihilation of a TeV dark matter particle that communicates with the Standard Model via the new light singlet(s).

We calculated the nucleon (N) and the gamma N -> Delta form factors in the universe of values for that parameter described by quenched lattice QCD. A qualitative description of the nucleon and gamma N -> Delta form factors lattice data is achieved for light pions.

AB By systematically studying development of a high resolution, negative electron beam resist, hexa-methyl acetoxy calix(6)arene, we have elicited a more general understanding of the underlying development mechanisms for negative resists. Using the three dimensional Hansen solubility parameters for more than 40 solvents, we have constructed a Hansen solubility sphere (HSS). From this sphere, we have estimated the Flory Huggins interaction parameter for solvents with hexa-methyl acetoxy calix(6)arene and found a correlation between resist development contrast, nanoscale patterned feature quality, and the polymer-solvent solubility. Conducting Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) in a liquid cell, we have measured swelling for hexamethyl acetoxy calix(6)arene in four solvents. The swelling measurements indicate that the HSS gives an indication of the Flory-Huggins interaction parameter. These measurements provide new insights into the development behavior of nanoscale features - necessary for obtaining the ultimate lithographic resolution. In addition, it demonstrates a methodology for choosing appropriate polymer-solvent combinations for nanoscience applications. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

AB We report on a mouse specific SuperMix immunoaffinity separation system for separating low-abundance proteins from high and moderate abundance proteins in mouse plasma. When applied in tandem with a mouse IgY7 column that removes the seven most abundant proteins in plasma, the SuperMix column captures more than 100 additional moderate abundance proteins, thus allowing significant enrichment of low-abundance proteins in the flow-through fraction. A side-by-side comparison of results obtained from 2D-LC-MS/MS analyses of flow-through samples from IgY7 and SuperMix columns revealed a nearly 2-fold improvement in the overall proteome coverage. Detection of low-abundance proteins was also enhanced, as evidenced by a more than 2-fold increase in the coverage of cytokines, growth factors, and other low-abundance proteins. Moreover, the tandem separations are automated, reproducible, and allow effective identification of protein abundance differences from LC-MS/MS analyses. Considering the overall reproducibility and increased sensitivity using the IgY7-SuperMix separation system, we anticipate broad applications of this strategy for biomarker discovery using mouse models.

AB Uranium (U) and plutonium (Pu) isotopes in coral soils, contaminated by nuclear weapons testing in the northern Marshall Islands, were isolated by ion-exchange chromatography and analyzed by mass spectrometry. The soil samples were spiked with (233)U and (242)Pu tracers, dissolved in minerals acids, and U and Pu isotopes isolated and purified on commercially available ion-exchange columns. The ion-exchange technique employed a TEVA(A (R)) column coupled to a UTEVA(A (R)) column. U and Pu isotope fractions were then further isolated using separate elution schemes, and the purified fractions containing U and Pu isotopes analyzed sequentially using multi-collector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometer (MCICP-MS). High precision measurements of (234)U/(235)U, (238)U/(235)U, (236)U/(235)U, and (240)Pu/(239)Pu in soil samples were attained using the described methodology and instrumentation, and provide a basis for conducting more detailed assessments of the behavior and transfer of uranium and plutonium in the environment.

AB A project is underway to build and use a fission time projection chamber (TPC) to make high precision/accuracy measurements of neutron-induced fission cross sections to address issues in fast reactor design. A critical aspect of this program is to have thin TPC targets on thin backings with uniform deposits of the actinides. We have prepared, using vacuum deposition, 100-200 mu g/cm(2) deposits of (232)Th, (235)U and (238)U on 30-100 mu g/cm(2) C backings with a measured thickness variation of < 1.5%. To facilitate measurement of cross section ratios, we are preparing targets with an n-leaf clover design where each petal is a different nuclide.

DE Targets; Arsenic; Electrodeposition; Neutron activation
AB A simple method for the electrodeposition of elemental arsenic (As) on a metal backing from aqueous solutions has been developed. The method was successfully applied to stable As ((75)As). Thin (2.5 mg cm(-2)) coherent, smooth layers of the metalloid on Ti foils (2.5 mu m thickness) were obtained. Electrodeposits served as targets for (75)As(n,gamma) (76)As neutron capture experiments at Los Alamos Neutron Science Center (LANSCE). Respective (73)As(n,gamma) (74)As experiments are planned for the near future, and (73)As targets will be prepared in a similar fashion utilizing the new electrodeposition method. The preparation of an (73)As (half-life 80.3 days) plating bath solution from proton irradiated germanium has been demonstrated. Germanium target irradiation was performed at the Los Alamos Isotope Production Facility (IPF).

ID STANDARDIZATION; DECAY
AB The measurement of the decay of Sm-153 was observed by gamma spectrometry, liquid scintillation counting and gas proportional counting in an attempt to confirm the half life and gamma abundance ratios for this isotope. Recent changes in the published nuclear decay data indicate that historical literature values may be biased. The Sm-153 was made by the neutron activation of ultra-pure isotopically enriched Sm-152 to create Sm-153. The decay measurements were made over a three week period and no other isotopes were detected during this time. The gamma abundance ratio for the 103 keV gamma was measured to be (27.9%) which is 4% lower than the published data. In addition, the half life was 1.9308 days, which is 0.34% lower than the published data.

AB Fission yields are especially well characterized for long-lived fission products. Modeling techniques incorporate numerous assumptions and can be used to deduce information about the distribution of short-lived fission products. This work is an attempt to gather experimental (model-independent) data on short-lived fission products. Fissile isotopes of uranium, neptunium, plutonium and americium were irradiated under pulse conditions at the Washington State University 1 MW TRIGA reactor to achieve similar to 10(8) fissions. The samples were placed on an HPGe (high purity germanium) detector to initiate counting in less than 3 min post irradiation. The data was analyzed to determine which radionuclides could be quantified and compared to the published fission yield data.

Thick, adherent deposits were prepared using molecular plating from isopropyl alcohol solutions. Improved yields and thicknesses were observed for (241)Am electrodeposition after the material was purified using TRU resin from Eichrom. Similarly, (233)U deposits were improved after purification with an anion exchange column in 9 M HBr followed by purification using UTEVA resin from Eichrom.

AB Lutetium has been used as a radiochemistry detector to measure neutron fluence in NTS tests. A measure of the neutron capture cross sections on Lu-173 is needed to improve the interpretation value of the Lu radiochemistry isotopic ratios. A natural hafnium target was irradiated with protons to produce neutron poor lutetium radioisotopes. The short lived species were allowed to decay prior to chemical processing resulting in predominantly Lu-173 with a small amount of Lu-174. This material was deposited on a titanium foil for use in the neutron capture cross section measurement.

TI Industrial commercial respirator filter as indoor radon monitor
SO JOURNAL OF RADIOANALYTICAL AND NUCLEAR CHEMISTRY
LA English
DT Article
DE Indoor radon; Gamma spectrometry; (214)Bi; Respiratory filter
AB This paper presents a method for measuring indoor radon concentrations using a commercially available air-purifying respirator filter as a component of the radon monitor. The filter used was Survivair's NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Health and Safety)-approved 100800 model. The method is based on the diffusion of radon gas into the activated carbon of the filter and the measurement of the radioactive daughters resulting from the radon decay. The photopeaks of the (214)Bi daughter gamma rays (0.609 MeV) were analyzed with a Hyper-Pure Germanium (HPGe) detector and a multichannel system. A monotonically increasing and very close to linear response relation between the integrated area under the (214)Bi photopeak and the radon concentration of the activated carbon was found. A well-defined relation held for radon levels ranging from 15 to 4,700 Bq/m(3). This procedure results in highly reproducible and reliable measurements of indoor radon levels. Interesting applications include the investigation of radiological accidents involving radon and the retrospective measuring of indoor radon concentrations by analyzing the filters of the respirators worn by personnel working during the relevant period.

Based on a calculated plant water velocity, a Pu retardation factor of 1-10 was estimated. Dominant Pu species retardation in soil is typically several orders of magnitude higher than this, implying that plants can be a vector for exceptionally rapid upward Pu mobility.

AB Plutonium-239 (Pu-239) and plutonium-240 (Pu-240) activity concentrations and Pu-240/Pu-239 atom ratios are reported for Brown Algae (Fucus distichus) collected from the littoral zone of Amchitka Island (Alaska), and at a control site at Unalaska, Alaska. The average Pu-240/Pu-239 atom ratio observed in dried F. distichus collected from Amchitka Island was 0.227 +/- A 0.007 (N = 5) and compares with the expected Pu-240/Pu-239 atom ratio in integrated worldwide fallout deposition in the Northern Hemisphere of 0.1805 +/- A 0.0057. In the absence of any evidence of a local source of plutonium containing an elevated Pu-240/Pu-239 isotopic signature, the characteristically high Pu-240/Pu-239 content of F. distichus supports the view of the existence of a discernible, basin-wide non-fallout source of plutonium entering the subarctic Pacific.

TI Weighted exponential regression for characterizing radionuclide
concentrations in soil depth profiles

LA English
DT Article
DE Radionuclide concentrations; Soil; Gamma-ray spectrometer; (137)Cesium
data; Alpha/rho estimation; Exponential regression analysis
AB Characterization of radionuclide concentrations in soil profiles requires accurate evaluation of the depth distribution of the concentrations as measured by gamma emissions. Recent studies of (137)Cs activity at the Idaho National Laboratory indicate that these data consistently follow exponential trends when the fraction of radioactivity below depth is plotted against depth. The slope of the exponential regression fit is defined as alpha/rho (alpha/rho), the depth profile parameter. A weighted exponential regression procedure has been developed to compute a mean alpha/rho for a group of related soil samples. Regression results from different areas or from different time periods can be used to compare representative radionuclide concentrations for the specified groupings.

AB Recently the use of the more unusual hexavalent oxidation state of americium has been receiving increased attention for the purpose of developing an efficient Am/Cm or Am/lanthanide separation system. We have already demonstrated the feasibility of performing this separation with 30% TBP in dodecane, and are now looking at different extractants to increase Am(VI) distribution ratios. Following on from this the extraction of bismuth oxidized americium from nitric acid solutions by dibutyl butyl phosphonate has been studied. The results of this study indicate that increasing the basicity of the extractant molecule has significantly improved the extraction efficiency.

AB A variety of unique radioactive samples have been measured recently at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) using an electrically-cooled high-purity germanium detector. In each case the purpose of the measurements included one or more of the following objectives: (1) an accurate determination of the isotopic weight fractions of different plutonium or uranium materials; (2) an accurate determination of the isotopic quantity in the absence of relevant calibration standards; and (3) a qualitative determination of various sample impurities for additional forensic information. This paper discusses how simple modifications to the PC-FRAM parameter sets enabled a better determination of the isotopic content of the following samples: (1) high-purity plutonium metal, (2) plutonium-beryllium (PuBe) neutron sources, (3) neutron-irradiated natural uranium, and (4) re-processed HEU fuel with elevated (236)U content. The isotopic quantity in a variety of samples was determined using a combination of the Spectral Nondestructive Assay Platform (SNAP (TM)) routine from Eberline Services and the Monte Carlo Neutral Particle (MCNP) code developed at LANL. The non-traditional sources that were quantified with these gamma ray modeling codes included dozens of neutron-irradiated targets of natural uranium, several plutonium-beryllium neutron sources, and three high-purity samples of plutonium metal.

SO JOURNAL OF RADIOANALYTICAL AND NUCLEAR CHEMISTRY

DT Article
DE X-ray fluorescence (XRF); EDXRF; Alpha decay
AB Energy dispersive X-ray fluorescence (EDXRF) spectra collected from alpha emitters are complicated by artifacts inherent to the alpha decay process, particularly when using portable instruments. For example, (239)Pu EDXRF spectra exhibit a prominent uranium L X-ray emission peak series due to sample alpha decay rather than source-induced X-ray fluorescence. A portable EDXRF instrument was used to collect qualitative spectra from plutonium and americium, and metal alloy identification was performed on a Pu-contaminated steel sample. Significant alpha decay-induced X-ray fluorescence peaks were observed in spectra obtained from the plutonium and americium samples due to the (235)U and (237)Np daughters, respectively. The plutonium sample was also analyzed by wavelength dispersive XRF (WDXRF) to demonstrate that alpha decay-induced X-ray emission has a negligible effect on WDXRF spectra.

AB Rapid radioanalytical methods are adversely affected by many different sample-matrix interferences, which make analyzing samples a difficult and time consuming process. A new method for preparing radioactive samples for analysis by alpha spectrometry has been demonstrated. In this technique, a selective extractive ligand is immobilized in a polymer film coated on a metal surface. This polymer ligand film is then used to extract plutonium and other radioactive analytes from solution over a short period of time. The prepared substrate is then counted directly by alpha spectroscopy in a small single detector alpha spectrometer. The method has been demonstrated for the analysis of americium and plutonium in liquid samples such as water and urine.

AB Plutonium (Pu) metal samples from an interlaboratory exchange exercise and simulated swipe samples were dated using plutonium-uranium (Pu-U) and plutonium-americium (Pu-Am). Metal data were evaluated for consistency and the swipe data against its source material. Metal ages based on (239)Pu versus (235)U and (240)Pu versus (236)U agreed to within a few percent, while the (238)Pu-(234)U and (241)Pu-(241)Am measurements had larger uncertainties. Swipe ages compared favorably with the material's known history. Neptunium ((237)Np) analyses were examined in the context of the (241)Pu-(241)Am-(237)Np system to estimate whether Np can provide insights on material from which Am, Np, and U were removed.

AB Minimizing plutonium measurement uncertainty is essential to nuclear material control and international safeguards. In 2005, the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) published ISO 12183 "Controlled-potential coulometric assay of plutonium," 2nd edition. ISO 12183:2005 recommends a target of +/- 0.01% for the mass of original sample in the aliquot because it is a critical assay variable. Mass measurements in radiological containment were evaluated and uncertainties estimated. The uncertainty estimate for the mass measurement also includes uncertainty in correcting for buoyancy effects from air acting as a fluid and from decreased pressure of heated air from the specific heat of the plutonium isotopes.

AB Plutonium metal exchange programs operated by the Rocky Flats Plant were conducted from 1956-1989 to ensure quality and to compare measurements in a plutonium metal matrix. Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) re-established the program in 2001 to assess the quality of analytical chemistry capabilities that support special nuclear material characterization. It is the only program of its kind for the preparation and distribution of plutonium metal reference materials with a range of impurity contents to multiple laboratories for destructive measurements of elemental concentration, isotopic abundance, and both metallic and non-metallic impurity levels. This program provides independent verification of analytical measurement capabilities for each of the seven currently participating laboratories, and allows any technical problems with analytical measurements to be identified and corrected. This paper focuses on basic program elements and presents a summary of methods and results for plutonium, uranium, neptunium, and americium, measurements.

AB This paper presents results from the examination of a number of archived neutron-irradiated uranium targets used for past plutonium production testing. Three of these targets were destructively characterized using Los Alamos National Laboratory actinide analytical chemistry capabilities. A validated conduct-of-operations protocol was followed for this characterization effort. Chemical analyses included measurements for radionuclides, uranium assay, uranium isotopic abundances, trace actinides, trace metals, and non-metals. Material scientists also examined materials for morphological and microstructural properties and individual particles were examined for trace impurities. After characterization of the targets was completed, a reactor modeling effort was undertaken to corroborate target details in historical records. Time since irradiation calculations utilized both activation and fission products. The described examination of uranium targets has a tremendous impact from a safeguards verification and nuclear forensics perspective.

AB The Savannah River Site's (SRS) H-Canyon facility uses ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) to separate impure neptunium (Np) from a nitric acid feed stream containing 0.5-1.0 M concentrations of iron, sodium and sulfate impurities. The material is processed using a two-pass solvent extraction purification which relies on CAN to oxidize Np to Np(VI) during the first pass prior to extraction. Spectrophotometric oxidation-state analyses normally used to validate successful oxidation to Np(VI) prior to extraction were compromised by this feed stream matrix. Therefore, a rapid chromatographic method to validate successful Np oxidation was developed using Eichrom Industries' TRU and TEVA(A (R)) resins. The method was validated and subsequently transferred to existing operations in the process analytical laboratories.

AB A gas pressurized extraction chromatography (GPEC) system has been developed to perform elemental separations on radioactive samples to determine total and isotopic compositions of Cs and Ba from an irradiated salt sample, fuel sample and two sealed radiation sources. The GPEC system employs compressed nitrogen to move liquid through the system, compared to gravity or pumped liquids that are typically used for separations. A commercially available Sr-Resin (TM) was used to perform the separation for the above mentioned analytes. A 1% acetic acid solution was determined to be the best extractant for Ba. A flow rate of 0.1 mL/min was determined to be optimal for the separation of Ba. Complete recovery of the Cs and Ba was achieved, within the systematic uncertainties of the experiments.

AB The chemistry of technetium is being explored at the University of Nevada Las Vegas. Our goal is to investigate both the applied and fundamental aspects of technetium chemistry, with a special emphasis on synthesis, separations, and materials science. The synthetic chemistry focuses on metal-metal multiple bonding, oxides and halides. Synthesis and characterizations of (n-Bu(4)N)(2)Tc(2)X(8), Tc(2)(O(2)CCH3)(4)X(2) (X = Cl, Br), TcO(2), Bi(2)Tc(2)O(7), Bi(3)TcO(8), TcBr(3) and TcBr(4) have been performed. The applied chemistry is related to the behavior of Tc in the UREX process. Separation of U/Tc has been conducted using anion exchange resin and metallic Tc waste form synthesized and characterized.

AB Bench scale experiments were conducted to determine the dissolution characteristics of UO(2), U(3)O(8), and UO(3) in aqueous peroxide-containing carbonate solutions. The experimental parameters investigated included carbonate countercation (NH(4) (+), Na(+), K(+), and Rb(+)) and H(2)O(2) concentration. The carbonate countercation had a dramatic influence on the dissolution behavior of UO(2) in 1 M carbonate solutions containing 0.1 M H(2)O(2), with the most rapid dissolution occurring in (NH(4))(2)CO(3) solution. The initial dissolution rate (y) of UO(2) in 1 M (NH(4))(2)CO(3) increased linearly with peroxide concentration (x) ranging from 0.05 to 2 M according to: y = 2.41x + 1.14. The trend in initial dissolution rates for the three U oxides under study was UO(3) a parts per thousand << U(3)O(8) > UO(2).

AB Characterization of SuperLig(A (R)) 620 solid phase extraction resin was performed in order to develop an automated on-line process monitor for Sr-90. The main focus was on strontium separation from barium, with the goal of developing an automated separation process for Sr-90 in high-level wastes. High-level waste contains significant Cs-137 activity, of which Ba-137m is of great concern as an interference to the quantification of strontium. In addition barium, yttrium and plutonium were studied as potential interferences to strontium uptake and detection. A number of complexants were studied in a series of batch K-d experiments, as SuperLig(A (R)) 620 was not previously known to elute strontium in typical mineral acids. The optimal separation was found using a 2 M nitric acid load solution with a strontium elution step of similar to 0.49 M ammonium citrate and a barium elution step of similar to 1.8 M ammonium citrate. Sr-90 quantification of Hanford high-level tank waste was performed on a sequential injection analysis microfluidics system coupled to a flow-cell detector. The results of the on-line procedure are compared to standard radiochemical techniques in this paper.

AB The long-lived rare earth isotopes Sm-151 (90 years, beta (max) = 76.3 keV) and Pm-147 (2.62 years, beta (max) = 224.6 keV) are low-yield fission products that generally require lengthy separation procedures to isolate and count by their beta emissions. We will describe novel liquid scintillation counting techniques using radioactive tracers to determine radiochemical yields from an environmental matrix. The recovery of Sm-151 is determined from the alpha decay (2.25 MeV) of Sm-147 in the natural Sm carrier and is in excellent agreement with the gravimetric recovery. The Pm-147 recovery is determined by the use of Pm-145 (17.7 years, EC) tracer, custom-produced at LANL using an isotopically enriched target of Sm-144. We have determined the Pm-145 recovery both from the 37.4 keV k(alpha 1) X-ray, and the electron-capture emissions by LSC. A comparison of these recovery methods is presented.

AB Correct prediction of the fission products inventory in irradiated nuclear fuels is essential for accurate estimation of fuel burnup, establishing proper requirements for spent fuel transportation and storage, materials accountability and nuclear forensics. Such prediction is impossible without accurate knowledge of neutron induced fission yields. The uncertainty of the fission yields reported in the ENDF/B-VII.0 library is not uniform across all of the data and much of the improvement is desired for certain fissioning isotopes and fission products. We discuss our measurements of cumulative fission yields in nuclear fuels irradiated in thermal and fast reactor spectra using Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry.

AB Waste cleanup efforts underway at the United States Department of Energy's (DOE) Savannah River Site (SRS) in South Carolina, as well as other DOE nuclear sites, have created a need to characterize Se-79 in radioactive waste inventories. Successful analysis of Se-79 in high activity waste matrices is challenging for a variety of reasons. As a result of these unique challenges, the successful quantification of Se-79 in the types of matrices present at SRS requires an extremely efficient and selective separation of Se-79 from high levels of interfering radionuclides. A robust Se-79 radiochemical separation method has been developed at the Savannah River National Laboratory (SRNL) which is routinely capable of successfully purifying Se-79 from a wide range of interfering radioactive species. In addition to dramatic improvements in the K-d, ease, and reproducibility of the analysis, the laboratory time has been reduced from several days to only 6 h.

AB Polycrystal line samples of the Lu1-xLaxMn2O5 solid solution system were synthesized under moderate conditions for compositions with x up to 0.815. Due to the large difference in ionic size between Lu3+ and La3+, significant changes in lattice parameters and severe lattice strains are present in the solid solution. This in turn leads to the composition dependent thermal stability and magnetic properties. It is found that the solid Solution samples with x <= 0.487 decompose at a single well defined temperature, while those with x >= 0.634 decompose over a temperature range with the formation of intermediate phases. For the samples with x >= 0.487, the primary magnetic transition Occurs below 40 K, similar to LuMn2O5 and other individual RMn2O5 (R = Bi, Y, and rare earth) compounds. In contrast, a magnetic phase with a similar to 200 K onset transition temperature is dominant in the samples with x >= 0.634. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB Temperature-dependent, single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction studies as well as magnetization, and heat capacity measurements were carried out on two phases of the Gd5GaxGe4-x system: for x = 0.7 and 1.0. Gd5Ga0.7Ge3.3 shows three structure types as a function of temperature: (i) from 165 K to room temperature, the orthorhombic Sm5Ge4-type structure exists; (ii) below 150 , it transforms to a orthorhombic Gd5Si4-type structure; and (iii) a monoclinic Gd5Si2Ge2-type component is observed for the intermediate temperature range of 150 K <= T <= 165 K. This is the first time that all these three structure types have been observed for the same composition. For Gd5Ga1.0Ge3.0, the room temperature phase belongs to the orthorhombic Pu5Rh4-type structure with interslab contacts between main group atoms of 2.837(4)angstrom. Upon heating above 523 K, it transforms to a Gd5Si4-type structure with this distance decreasing to 2.521(7)angstrom before decomposing above 573 K. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All Fights reserved.

AB Using diamond anvil cell technique with angle dispersive X-ray diffraction (ADXD) of synchrotron radiation and electrical conductivity measurements, we have observed that CuO2 chain compound Li2CuO2 transforms from ambient orthorhombic symmetry into a new phase at above 5.4 GPa and room temperature. The new phase was found to be of monoclinic structure with all increased oxygen coordination number of Cu2+ from four at ambient to six at high pressure that provides a structural basis of the evolution of principle physical properties. The high pressure phase of Li2CuO2 is discussed in line with the first principle calculations. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB A grid-free variant of the direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is proposed, named the isotropic DSMC (I-DSMC) method, that is suitable for simulating dense fluid flows at molecular scales. The I-DSMC algorithm eliminates all grid artifacts from the traditional DSMC algorithm; it is Galilean invariant and microscopically isotropic. The stochastic collision rules in I-DSMC are modified to yield a non-ideal structure factor that gives consistent compressibility, as first proposed by Donev et al (2008 Phys. Rev. Lett. 101 075902). The resulting stochastic hard-sphere dynamics (SHSD) fluid is empirically found to have the same pair correlation function as a deterministic Hamiltonian system of penetrable spheres interacting with a linear core pair potential, well described by the hypernetted chain (HNC) approximation. We apply a stochastic Enskog kinetic theory to the SHSD fluid to obtain estimates for the transport coefficients that are in excellent agreement with particle simulations over a wide range of densities and collision rates. The fluctuating hydrodynamic behavior of the SHSD fluid is verified by comparing its dynamic structure factor against theory based on the Landau-Lifshitz Navier-Stokes equations. We also study the Brownian motion of a nanoparticle suspended in an SHSD fluid and find a long-time power-law tail in its velocity autocorrelation function consistent with hydrodynamic theory and molecular dynamics calculations.

AB We have used combinatorial molecular beam epitaxy (COMBE) technique to deposit thin cuprate films with continuous spread in chemical composition, as well as nominally uniform films. We have patterned them into linear pixel arrays and measured the transport properties of each pixel. We applied detailed statistical analysis to differentiate between various possible sources of random pixel-to-pixel variations, and utilized this knowledge to considerably tighten the process parameters and significantly reduce such variations. The density and quality of data points is high enough to allow detection of quantum phase transitions induced by tuning the chemical composition.

AB The applications of nuclear resonant scattering in laser-heated diamond anvil cells have provided an important probe for the magnetic and vibrational properties of Fe-57-bearing materials under high pressure and high temperature. Synchrotron X-ray diffraction is one of the most powerful tools for studying phase stability and equation of state over a wide range of pressure and temperature conditions. Recently an experimental capability has been developed for simultaneous nuclear resonant scattering and X-ray diffraction measurements using synchrotron radiation. Here the application of this method to determine the sound velocities of compressed Fe3C is shown. The X-ray diffraction measurements allow detection of microscale impurities, phase transitions and chemical reactions upon compression or heating. They also provide information on sample pressure, grain size distribution and unit cell volume. By combining the Debye velocity extracted from the nuclear resonant inelastic X-ray scattering measurements and the structure, density and elasticity data from the X-ray diffraction measurements simultaneously obtained, more accurate sound velocity data can be derived. Our results on few-crystal and powder samples indicate strong anisotropy in the sound velocities of Fe3C under ambient conditions.

AB Thin films of organic semiconductor prepared on substrates generally contain crystals that have one common crystal plane parallel to the substrate but random in-plane orientations. In diffraction measurements of these structures, it is often required to anchor the X-ray beam on a fixed spot on the sample, such as an optically visible crystallite or island. Here, a hexapod is used in place of a traditional multi-circle diffractometer to perform area-detector-based diffraction measurements on an actual device that contains 6,13-bis(triisopropylsilyethynyl)-pentacene (TIPS-pentacene) crystals. The hexapod allows for sample rotations about any user-defined rotation center. Two types of complex sample motions have been programmed to characterize the structure of the TIPS-pentacene crystal: an in-plane powder average has been performed at a fixed grazing-incident angle to determine the lattice parameters of the crystal; then the in-plane component of the scattering vector was continuously rotated in transmission geometry to determine the local crystal orientation.

ID INVERTED PENDULUM; ENGINE
AB An inverted pulse tube in which gravity-driven convection is suppressed by acoustic oscillations is analogous to an inverted pendulum that is stabilized by high-frequency vibration of its pivot point. Gravity acts on the gas density gradient arising from the end-to-end temperature gradient in the pulse tube, exerting a force proportional to that density gradient, tending to cause convection when the pulse tube is inverted. Meanwhile, a nonlinear effect exerts an opposing force proportional to the square of any part of the density gradient that is not parallel to the oscillation direction. Experiments show that convection is suppressed when the pulse-tube convection number N(ptc) = omega(2)a(2) root Delta T/T(avg)/[g(alpha D sin theta-L cos theta)] is greater than 1 in slender tubes, where omega is the radian frequency of the oscillations, a is their amplitude, Delta T is the end-to-end temperature difference, T(avg) is the average absolute temperature, g is the acceleration of gravity, L is the length of the pulse tube and D is its diameter, alpha is about 1.5, and the tip angle theta ranges from 90 for a horizontal tube to 180 for an inverted tube. Theory suggests that the temperature dependence should be Delta T/T(avg) instead of root Delta T/T(avg). (C) 2009 Acoustical Society of America. [DOI: 10.1121/1.3238156]

AB The main objective of this study was to evaluate the correlation between the Environmental Relative Moldiness Index (ERMI) values in the Department of Housing and Urban Development American Healthy Homes Survey (AHHS) homes and an alternative analysis frequently used in mold investigations, i.e., the inspector's "walk-through" assessment of visual or olfactory evidence of mold combined with occupant's answers to a questionnaire about mold odors and moisture. Homes in the highest ERMI quartile were in agreement with visual inspection and/or occupant assessment 48% of the time but failed to detect the mold in 52% of the fourth quartile homes. In about 7% of lowest ERMI quartile homes, the inspection and occupant assessments overestimated the mold problem. The ERMI analysis of dust from homes may be useful in finding hidden mold problems. An additional objective was to compare the ERMI values in inner city east-Baltimore homes, where childhood asthma is common, to the AHHS randomly selected homes.

AB Damage evaluation processes in patterned GaN implanted by 3 MeV Au(2+) ions were investigated as a function of ion fluences and annealing temperatures. Surface swelling was observed by using atomic force microscopy and the results showed that the swelling height depends on ion fluence and annealing temperature. The authors observed four-stage implantation-induced damage evolution including point-defect formation, defect clustering, amorphization/bubble formation, and eventually, decomposition. This evolution is contributed to irradiation-induced defect production and defect migration/accumulation occurred at different levels of displacement per atom. Craterlike holes were observed on the surface of GaN implanted at the ion fluence of 2x10(16) cm(-2), which is evidence of N loss, and broken bubbles formed during implantation.

AB The authors studied the influence of sputtering a ZnMgO window layer for Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 solar cells on bulk and interface electrical properties. Admittance spectroscopy reveals deep levels at the ZnMgO/CdS interface whose activation energy (similar to 0.4 eV) increases with reverse bias, indicating an unpinned quasi-Fermi level at the interface. The Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 carrier concentration determined by capacitance-voltage measurements decreases to 3x10(14) cm(-3), compared to 1x10(16) cm(-3) in a device with a ZnO window. Scanning Kelvin probe force microscopy verifies the increased depletion region width and indicates that the junction location is unaltered by ZnMgO. Secondary-ion mass spectroscopy shows the presence of Mg near the top and bottom surfaces of the Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 film. They hypothesize that the decrease in carrier concentration is due to compensation doping of the Cu-poor Cu(In,Ga)Se-2 by Mg. Optimizing sputtering conditions to reduce surface damage and Mg migration eliminates the interface states and restores the carrier concentration, resulting in device performance comparable to those with a ZnO window.

AB The electrical behavior of aluminum nitride (AlN) thin film structures consisting of alternating AlN and platinum (Pt) layers has been studied. Typical single layer AlN thin films are insulating due to the wide bandgap properties of the material, but stacked AlN-Pt structures can be conductive. Conductivity studies of the structures indicate regions of semiconductor behavior as well as regions where tunneling occurs. The thickness of the AlN layers, as well as the number of AlN-Pt interfaces in the structures, is found to impact the conduction and tunneling mechanism. Fowler-Nordheim theory and plots were used to determine trends in the electrical behavior and it was found that the field enhancement factor depends on the total thickness of the AlN layers, while the conduction mechanism, tunneling, or multistep hopping between midbandgap states, depends on the number of interfaces as well.

AB Soft x-ray zone plate microscopy is a powerful nanoanalytic technique used for a wide variety of scientific and technological studies. Pushing its spatial resolution to 10 nm and below is highly desired and feasible due to the short wavelength of soft x rays. Instruments using Fresnel zone plate lenses achieve a spatial resolution approximately equal to the smallest, outermost zone width. In this work, a double patterning zone plate fabrication process is developed. based on a high resolution resist, hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ), to bypass the limitations of conventional single exposure fabrication to pattern density, such as finite beam size, scattering in resist, and modest intrinsic resist contrast. To fabricate HSQ structures with zone widths on the order of 10 nm on gold plating base, a surface conditioning process with (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane, 3-MPT, is used, which forms a homogeneous hydroxylation surface on gold surface and provides good anchoring for the desired HSQ structures. Using the new HSQ double patterning process, coupled with an internally developed, subpixel alignment algorithm, the authors have successfully fabricated in-house gold zone plates of 12 nm outer zones. Promising results for 10 nm zone plates have also been obtained. With the 12 nm zone plates, they have achieved a resolution of 12 nm using the full-field soft x-ray microscope, XM-1.

AB Achieving the highest possible resolution using scanning-electron-beam lithography (SEBL) has become an increasingly urgent problem in recent years, as advances in various nanotechnology applications [F. S. Bates and G. H. Fredrickson, Annu. Rev. Phys. Chem. 41, 525 (1990); Black , IBM J. Res. Dev. 51, 605 (2007); Yang , J. Chem. Phys. 116, 5892 (2002)] have driven demand for feature sizes well into the sub-10 nm domain, close to the resolution limit of the current generation of SEBL processes. In this work, the authors have used a combination of calculation, modeling, and experiment to investigate the relative effects of resist contrast, beam scattering, secondary electron generation, system spot size, and metrology limitations on SEBL process resolution. In the process of investigating all of these effects, they have also successfully yielded dense structures with a pitch of 12 nm at voltages as low as 10 keV.

AB The authors study the dissolution mechanism of hydrogen silsesquioxane in base solutions with the addition of chloride salts to elucidate the development mechanism. The reaction mechanisms are proposed based on the dissolution mechanism of quartz. Development kinetics suggests two dose-dependent development mechanisms. Considering ion sizes, both hydrated and nonhydrated, and ion exchange, they propose that a combination of a surface dominated reaction at higher doses and a matrix dominated reaction at lower doses accounts for the high development contrast with a NaOH base/NaCl salt mixture. The interplay between the hydrated and the nonhydrated ion sizes leads to higher contrast developers, such as tetramethyl ammonium hydroxide with NaCl.

AB Tip based nanofabrication (TBN) processes promise unprecedented degrees of control and precision for the manufacture of nanostructured materials and devices. These processes use atomic force microscope or scanning tunneling microscope tips to create localized electric fields, electron beams, and other catalyzing conditions to control and detect the position, size, dimension, and orientation of nanostructures. Tip based approaches have deposited metals, oxides, and organic molecules to name a few. Often, a gas phase precursor is required to provide the material for the deposit. The TBN conditions for gas dosing are unique compared to other fabrication processes, e.g., chemical vapor deposition. The manufacture of precision nanostructures requires a contamination-free environment, and hence ultrahigh vacuum conditions must be maintained in the chamber. This can cause a gas jet from a doser to spread into a wide fan resulting in a small precursor flux with a broad distribution. This makes it difficult to meet the large fabrication rates desired for TBN. Ideally, gas dosing would promote rapid deposition rates while limiting the chamber pressure by creating a focused gas jet that is restricted to the intended fabrication area. Continuum gas dynamics and direct simulation Monte Carlo calculations were used to study the effect of design and operational parameters on gas doser performance. The source pressure, doser design, and operating conditions are shown to affect the flux distribution at the substrate. The calculated results are compared to experimental measurements. A novel gas doser design was identified and its performance predicted.

AB Planarization is often crucial to the implementation of three-dimensional devices and systems. By using a pressing process analogous to nanoimprint, the authors show that moderate to high aspect ratio (>= 3) photonic nanostructures in the form of one-dimensional and two-dimensional photonic crystals can be effectively planarized with thermally cured sol-gel or uv-curable nanoimprint resist materials. The planarization results are strongly dependent on parameters such as pressing pressure, hydrophobicity of feature surface, spin conditions for sol-gel, and dispense volume for uv-curable. High degree of planarization and complete filling of open features can be achieved through optimization of imprint parameters. Nanoimprint planarization may thus offer a simple, low cost, fast, and viable alternative planarization methodology.

for extreme ultraviolet masks with buried defects and absorber features
SO JOURNAL OF VACUUM SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY B

DT Article
DE masks; semiconductor process modelling; ultraviolet lithography
AB The printability of buried extreme ultraviolet (EUV) defects near absorber features is studied using aerial images from the actinic inspection tool (AIT) and the fast EUV mask simulation program RADICAL. This work begins by comparing the printability of isolated defects through focus predicted by RADICAL and measured by the AIT. Then, images of defects near features from both simulation and experiment are investigated for different defect sizes and positions through focus. Finally, RADICAL is used to assess the expected defect printability levels in the less in coherent conditions which are expected to be used for production. Defect printability will be investigated as a function of defect size, position, and focus for the small absorber lines critical to 22 nm imaging using a top-hat illumination condition of sigma=0.75. Here, defects as small as 0.8 nm surface height cause a critical dimension (CD) change greater than 10% at best focus when located in the worst case position. Defects as small as 2.2 nm cause a CD change greater than 10% even when located under the center of the absorber.

ID LINE-EDGE ROUGHNESS; MASK-ROUGHNESS; TOOL
AB Microfield exposure tools (METs) have and continue to play a dominant role in the development of extreme ultraviolet resists and masks. One of these tools is the SEMATECH Berkeley 0.3 numerical aperture (NA) MET. Here, the authors investigate the possibilities and limitations of using the 0.3 NA MET for sub-22-nm half-pitch development. They consider mask resolution limitations and present a method unique to the centrally obscured MET, allowing mask patterning resolution limitations to be overcome. The method, however, comes at the cost of increased sensitivity to mask surface roughness. They also explore projection optics resolution limits and describe various illumination schemes allowing resolution enhancement. At 0.3 NA, the 0.5k(1) factor resolution limit is 22.5 nm, meaning that conventional illumination is of limited utility for sub-22-nm development. In general, resolution enhancing illumination encompasses increased coherence. They study the effect of this increased coherence on line-edge roughness (LER), which, along with resolution, is another crucial factor in sub-22-nm resist development. Due to coherence induced LER limitations, addressing the development at 16 nm half pitch and beyond will ultimately require higher NA systems.

TI EUV pattern defect detection sensitivity based on aerial image linewidth
measurements
SO JOURNAL OF VACUUM SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY B
LA English
DT Article
DE lithography; masks; pattern recognition
AB As the quality of EUV-wavelength mask inspection microscopes improves over time, the image properties and intensity profiles of reflected light can be evaluated in ever-greater detail. The SEMATECH Berkeley Actinic Inspection Tool (AIT) is one such microscope, featuring mask resolution values that match or exceed those available through lithographic printing in current photoresists. In order to evaluate the defect detection sensitivity of the AIT for dense line patterns on typical masks, the authors study the linewidth roughness (LWR) on two masks, as measured in the EUV images. They report the through-focus and pitch dependence of contrast, image log slope, linewidth, and LWR. The AIT currently reaches LWR 3 sigma values close to 9 nm for 175 nm half-pitch lines. This value is below 10% linewidth for nearly all lines routinely measured in the AIT. Evidence suggests that this lower level may arise from the mask's inherent pattern roughness. While the sensitivity limit of the AIT has not yet been established, it is clear that the AIT has the required sensitivity to detect defects that cause 10% linewidth changes in line sizes of 125 nm and larger.

AB The authors propose an iterative method for in situ optical testing under partially coherent illumination that relies on the rapid computation of aerial images. In this method, a known pattern is imaged with the test optics at several planes through focus. A model is created that iterates through possible aberration maps until the through-focus series of aerial images matches the experimental result. The computation time of calculating the through-focus series is significantly reduced by reduced optimized coherent sum, an adapted form of the sum of coherent systems decomposition. In this method, the Hopkins formulation is described by an operator S, which maps the space of pupil aberrations to the space of aerial images. This operator is well approximated by a truncated sum of its spectral components.

ID SAW SENSORS
AB The authors describe the design, fabrication, and testing of a passive wireless sensor platform utilizing low-cost commercial surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters and sensors. Polyimide and polyethylene terephthalate sheets are used as substrates to create a flexible sensor tag that can be applied to curved surfaces. A microfabricated antenna is integrated on the substrate in order to create a compact form factor. The sensor tags are fabricated using 315 MHz SAW filters and photodiodes and tested with the aid of a fiber-coupled tungsten lamp. Microwave energy transmitted from a network analyzer is used to interrogate the sensor tag. Due to an electrical impedance mismatch at the SAW filter and sensor, energy is reflected at the sensor load and reradiated from the integrated antenna. By selecting sensors that change electrical impedance based on environmental conditions, the sensor state can be inferred through measurement of the reflected energy profile. Testing has shown that a calibrated system utilizing this type of sensor tag can detect distinct light levels wireless and passively. The authors also demonstrate simultaneous operation of two tags with different center passbands that detects light. Ranging tests show that the sensor tags can operate at a distance of at least 3.6 m.

AB Ultrasharp diamond tips make excellent atomic force microscopy probes, field emitters, and abrasive articles due to diamond's outstanding physical properties, i.e., hardness, low friction coefficient, low work function, and toughness. Sharp diamond tips are currently fabricated as individual tips or arrays by three principal methods: (1) focused ion beam milling and gluing onto a cantilever of individual diamond tips, (2) coating silicon tips with diamond films, or (3) molding diamond into grooves etched in a sacrificial substrate, bonding the sacrificial substrate to another substrate or electrodepositing of a handling chip, followed by dissolution of the sacrificial substrate. The first method is tedious and serial in nature but does produce very sharp tips, the second method results in tips whose radius is limited by the thickness of the diamond coating, while the third method involves a costly bonding and release process and difficulties in thoroughly filling the high aspect ratio apex of molding grooves with diamond at the nanoscale. To overcome the difficulties with these existing methods, this article reports on the feasibility of the fabrication of sharp diamond tips by direct etching of ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD (R)) as a starting and structural material. The UNCD is reactive ion etched using a cap-precursor-mask scheme. An optimized etching recipe demonstrates the formation of ultrasharp diamond tips (similar to 10 nm tip radius) with etch rates of 650 nm/min.

ID UNIFORMLY REDUNDANT ARRAYS
AB Optical metrology tools, especially for short wavelengths (extreme ultraviolet and x-ray), must cover a wide range of spatial frequencies from the very low, which affects figure, to the important mid-spatial frequencies and the high spatial frequency range, which produces undesirable scattering. A major difficulty in using surface profilometers arises due to the unknown point-spread function (PSF) of the instruments [G. D. Boreman, Modulation Transfer Function in Optical and Electro-Optical Systems (SPIE, Bellingham, WA, 2001)] that is responsible for distortion of the measured surface profile. Generally, the distortion due to the PSF is difficult to account for because the PSF is a complex function that comes to the measurement via the convolution operation, while the measured profile is described with a real function. Accounting for instrumental PSF becomes significantly simpler if the result of measurement of a profile is presented in the spatial frequency domain as a power spectral density (PSD) distribution [J. W. Goodman, Introduction to Fourier Optics, 3rd ed. (Roberts & Company, Englewood, CO, 2005)]. For example, measured PSD distributions provide a closed set of data necessary for three-dimensional calculations of scattering of light by the optical surfaces [E. L. Church , Opt. Eng. (Bellingham) 18, 125 (1979); J. C. Stover, Optical Scattering, 2nd ed. (SPIE Optical Engineering Press, Bellingham, WA, 1995)]. The distortion of the surface PSD distribution due to the PSF can be modeled with the modulation transfer function (MTF), which is defined over the spatial frequency bandwidth of the instrument. The measured PSD distribution can be presented as a product of the squared MTF and the ideal PSD distribution inherent for the system under test. Therefore, the instrumental MTF can be evaluated by comparing a measured PSD distribution of a known test surface with the corresponding ideal numerically simulated PSD. The square root of the ratio of the measured and simulated PSD distributions gives the MTF of the instrument. The applicability of the MTF concept to phase map measurements with optical interferometric microscopes needs to be experimentally verified as the optical tool and algorithms may introduce nonlinear artifacts into the process. In previous work [V. V. Yashchuk , Proc. SPIE 6704, 670408 (2007); Valeriy V. Yashchuk , Opt. Eng. (Bellingham) 47, 073602 (2008)] the instrumental MTF of a surface profiler was precisely measured using reference test surfaces based on binary pseudorandom (BPR) gratings. Here, the authors present results of fabricating and using two-dimensional (2D) BPR arrays that allow for a direct 2D calibration of the instrumental MTF. BPR sequences are widely used in engineering and communication applications such as global position systems and wireless communication protocols. The ideal BPR pattern has a flat "white noise" response over the entire range of spatial frequencies of interest. The BPR array used here is based on the uniformly redundant array (URA) prescription[E. E. Fenimore and T. M. Cannon, Appl. Opt. 17, 337 (1978)] initially used for x-ray and gamma ray astronomy applications. The URA's superior imaging capability originates from the fact that its cyclical autocorrelation function very closely approximates a delta function, which produces a flat PSD. Three different size BPR array patterns were fabricated by electron beam lithography and induction coupled plasma etching of silicon. The basic size units were 200, 400, and 600 nm.
Two different etch processes were used, CF(4)/A and HBr, which resulted in undercut and vertical sidewall profiles, respectively. The 2D BPR arrays were used as standard test surfaces for MTF calibration of the MicroMap (TM)-570 interferometric microscope using all available objectives. The MicroMap (TM)-570 interferometric microscope uses incoherent illumination from a tungsten filament source and common path modulated phase shifting interference to produce a set of interferograms detected on a change coupled device. Mathematical algorithms applied to the datasets yield the surface phase map. The HBr etched two-dimensional BPR arrays have proven to be a very effective calibration standard making possible direct calibration corrections without the need of additional calculation considerations, while departures from the ideal vertical sidewall require an additional correction term for the CF(4)/Ar etched samples [Samuel K. Barber , Abstract to Optics and Photonics 2009: Optical Engineering and Applications Symposium, San Diego, CA, 2-6 August 2009]. Initial surface roughness of low cost "prime" wafers limits low magnification calibration but should not be a limitation if better polished samples are used.

ID LITHOGRAPHY; RESOLUTION
AB A robust operator independent measurement of electron beam sizes in two coordinates is demonstrated by using beam metrology (BEAMETR) technique. This method involves software associated with a specially designed pattern sample. The fabrication of this sample was done using 100 keV electron beam lithography and lift-off of metal. A proximity correction was applied to improve pattern quality. The minimum feature size of the fabricated BEAMETR patterns was 20 nm; this allowed for the measuring of beam size down to 2 nm. Beam size and shape measurements were done using three scanning electron microscopes; their operating conditions (voltage, aperture, and astigmatism) were varied. Repeatability and test pattern dependence were also studied, which demonstrated a good consistency of the results.

ID INCIDENCE DIFFRACTION; APPROXIMATION
AB Grazing incident small angle x-ray scattering (GISAXS) and transmission small angle x-ray scattering studies have been carried out on periodic patterns on silicon substrates in order to determine the average morphology and arrangement of the patterned features. The GISAXS pattern exhibited rods of scattering at Bragg positions, discrete and evenly spaced, in the surface plane. The scattered intensity modulations along each rod have been compared with simulated scattering from simple geometrical patterns to obtain quantitative information on the diameter, width, height, and sidewall inclination of the pillars and gratings. The results are in good agreement with real space images obtained with SEM and demonstrate that GISAXS is a powerful technique for characterizing nanoscale arrays used in patterned media, photonics structures, and electronics structures.

The radiation produced significant increases in generation-recombination leakage current in both emitter-base and base-collector junctions. The DHBTs irradiated with a dose of 2x10(11) cm(-2), which was equivalent to around 40 years of exposure in low Earth orbit, showed minimal changes in the junction ideality factor, generation-recombination leakage current, current gain, and output conductance. The InAlAs/InGaAsSb/InGaAs DHBTs appear to be well suited to space or nuclear industry applications.

AB Bluetongue virus (BTV) causes disease in domestic and wild ruminants and results in significant economic loss. The closely related Epizootic hemorrhagic disease virus (EHDV) has been associated with bluetongue-like disease in cattle. Although U.S. EHDV strains have not been experimentally proven to cause disease in cattle, there is serologic evidence of infection in cattle. Therefore, rapid diagnosis and differentiation of BTV and EHDV is required. The genetic sequence information and bioinformatic analysis necessary to design a real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for the early detection of indigenous and exotic BTV and EHDV is described. This sequence data foundation focused on 2 conserved target genes: one that is highly expressed in infected mammalian cells, and the other is highly expressed in infected insect cells. The analysis of all BTV and EHDV prototype strains indicated that a complex primer design was necessary for both a virus group-comprehensive and virus group-specific gene amplification diagnostic test. This information has been used as the basis for the development of a rapid multiplex BTV-EHDV real-time RT-PCR that detects all known serotypes of both viruses and distinguishes between BTV and EHDV serogroups. The sensitivity of this rapid, single-tube, real-time RT-PCR assay is sufficient for diagnostic application, without the contamination problems associated with standard gel-based RT-PCR, especially nested RT-PCR tests.

AB The decline of many snake populations is attributable to habitat loss, and knowledge of habitat use is critical to their conservation. Resource characteristics (e.g., relative availability of different habitat types, soils, and slopes) within a landscape are scale-dependent and may not be equal across multiple spatial scales. Thus, it is important to identify the relevant spatial scales at which resource selection occurs. We conducted a radiotelemetry study of eastern hognose snake (Heterodon platirhinos) home range size and resource use at different hierarchical spatial scales. We present the results for 8 snakes radiotracked during a 2-year study at New Boston Air Force Station (NBAFS) in southern New Hampshire, USA, where the species is listed by the state as endangered. Mean home range size (minimum convex polygon) at NBAFS (51.7 +/- 14.7 ha) was similar to that reported in other parts of the species' range. Radiotracked snakes exhibited different patterns of resource use at different spatial scales. At the landscape scale (selection of locations within the landscape), snakes overutilized old-field and forest edge habitats and underutilized forested habitats and wetlands relative to availability. At this scale, snakes also overutilized areas containing sandy loam soils and areas with lower slope (mean slope = 5.2% at snake locations vs. 6.7% at random locations). We failed to detect some of these patterns of resource use at the home range scale (i.e., within the home range). Our ability to detect resource selection by the snakes only at the landscape scale is likely the result of greater heterogeneity in macrohabitat features at the broader landscape scale. From a management perspective, future studies of habitat selection for rare species should include measurement of available habitat at spatial scales larger than the home range. We suggest that the maintenance of open early successional habitats as a component of forested landscapes will be critical for the persistence of eastern hognose snake populations in the northeastern United States.

AB MicroLaue diffraction combines the oldest x-ray diffraction method-Laue diffraction-with the most modem x-ray sources, optics and detectors. The combination can resolve complex materials into single-crystal-like submicron volumes. This unique ability to nondestructively map crystal structure at and below a sample surface, with high spatial and strain resolution can address long-standing fundamental issues in materials science. For example, the three-dimensional evolution of mesoscale structure and the self organization of defects can be observed nondestructively to understand the origins of inhomogeneous grain growth, deformation and fracture.

AB Synchrotron X-ray diffraction and neutron diffraction techniques are employed to characterise the lattice parameters and volume fraction of gamma and gamma' phases in a high strength nickel base superalloy. Samples of Rene88DT were solutionised at 1150 degrees C and cooled under three different rates to provide fine and coarse gamma' size distributions. Samples were aged at 760 degrees C to precipitate tertiary gamma' and coarsen secondary precipitates. Lattice parameter misfit and coefficient of thermal expansion parameters were also determined. Results indicate significant microstructure changes within the samples during the initial 25 h of aging.

AB Structural materials represent the key for containment of nuclear fuel and fission products as well as reliable and thermodynamically efficient production of electrical energy from nuclear reactors. Similarly, high-performance structural materials will be critical for the future success of proposed fusion energy reactors, which will subject the structures to unprecedented fluxes of high-energy neutrons along with intense thermomechanical stresses. Advanced materials can enable improved reactor performance via increased safety margins and design flexibility, in particular by providing increased strength, thermal creep resistance and superior corrosion and neutron radiation damage resistance. In many cases, a key strategy for designing high-performance radiation-resistant materials is based on the introduction of a high, uniform density of nanoscale particles that simultaneously provide good high temperature strength and neutron radiation damage resistance.

AB To facilitate the discovery and design of innovative nuclear fuels, multi-scale models and simulations are used to predict irradiation effects on properties such as thermal conductivity, oxygen diffusivity, and thermal expansion. The multi-scale approach is illustrated using results on ceramic fuels, with a focus on predictions of point defect concentration, stoichiometry, and phase stability. The high performance computer simulations include coupled heat transport, diffusion, and thermal expansion, and gas bubble formation and evolution in a fuel element consisting of UO2 fuel and metallic cladding. The second part of the paper is dedicated to a discussion of an international strategy for developing advanced, innovative nuclear fuels. Four initiatives are proposed to accelerate the discovery and design of new materials: (a) Create Institutes for Materials Discovery and Design, (b) Create an International Knowledgebase for experimental data, models (mathematical expressions), and simulations (codes), (c) Improve education and (d) Set up international collaborations.

AB A Kolsky apparatus with numerous modifications has been designed for mechanical characterization of materials at high strain rates. These modifications include employing a highly precise optical table, pillow blocks with Frelon (R)-coated linear bearings as bar supports and a laser system for better precision bar alignment, etc. In addition, the striker bars were coated with Teflon (R) to minimize the friction with the gun barrel after removal of the conventional plastic sabots. This new design significantly simplifies the alignment process, improving the final alignment and calibration in the bar system; both are critical for validity and accuracy of the resulting data. An example of a dynamic experiment on a 6061 aluminum specimen by using this newly designed Kolsky bar is also presented.

AB We have investigated gene expression patterns underlying reversible and irreversible anchorage-independent growth (AIG) phenotypes to identify more sensitive markers of cell transformation for studies directed at interrogating carcinogenesis responses. In JB6 mouse epidermal cells, basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) induces an unusually efficient and reversible AIG response, relative to 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA)-induced AIG which is irreversible. The reversible and irreversible AIG phenotypes are characterized by largely nonoverlapping global gene expression profiles. However, a subset of clifferentially expressed genes were identified as common to reversible and irreversible AIG phenotypes, including genes regulated in a reciprocal fashion. Hepatic leukemia factor (HLF) and D-site albumin promoter-binding protein (DBP) were increased in both bFGF and TPA soft agar colonies and selected for functional validation. Ectopic expression of human HLF and DBP in JB6 cells resulted in a marked increase in TPA- and bFGF-regulated AIG responses. HLF and DBP expression were increased in soft agar colonies arising from JB6 cells exposed to gamma radiation and in a human basal cell carcinoma tumor tissue, relative to paired nontumor tissue. Subsequent biological network analysis suggests that many of the differentially expressed genes that are common to bFGF- and TPA-dependent AIG are regulated by c-Myc, SP-1, and HNF-4 transcription factors. Collectively, we have identified a potential molecular switch that mediates the transition from reversible to irreversible AIG. (C) 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

AB We examined multiple paternity during eight breeding events within a 10-year period (1995-2005) for a total of 114 wild American alligator nests in Rockefeller Wildlife Refuge in south-west Louisiana. Our goals included examining (i) within population variation in multiple paternity among years, (ii) variation in multiple paternity in individual females and (iii) the potential for mate fidelity. To accomplish this, in the current study, eggs were sampled from 92 nests over 6 years and analysed along with 22 nests from a previous 2-year study. Genotypes at five microsatellite loci were generated for 1802 alligator hatchlings. Multiple paternity was found in 51% of clutches and paternal contributions to these clutches were highly skewed. Rates of multiple paternity varied widely among years and were consistently higher in the current study than previously reported for the same population. Larger females have larger clutches, but are not more likely to have multiply sired nests. However, small females are unlikely to have clutches with more than two sires. For 10 females, nests from multiple years were examined. Seven (70%) of these females exhibited long-term mate fidelity, with one female mating with the same male in 1997, 2002 and 2005. Five females exhibiting partial mate fidelity (71%) had at least one multiple paternity nest and thus mated with the same male, but not exclusively. These patterns of mate fidelity suggest a potential role for mate choice in alligators.

AB Lignin composition (monolignol types of coniferyl, sinapyl or p-coumaryl alcohol) is causally related to biomass recalcitrance. We describe multiwavelength (220, 228, 240, 250, 260, 290, 295, 300, 310 or 320 nm) absorption spectroscopy of coniferyl alcohol and its laccase- or peroxidase-catalyzed products during real time kinetic, pseudo-kinetic and endpoint analyses, in optical turn on or turn off modes, under acidic or basic conditions. Reactions in microwell plates and 100 mu L volumes demonstrated assay miniaturization and high throughput screening capabilities. Bathochromic and hypsochromic shifts along with hyperchromicity or hypochromicity accompanied enzymatic oxidations by laccase or peroxidase. The limits of detection and quantitation of coniferyl alcohol averaged 2.4 and 7.1 mu M respectively, with linear trend lines over 3 to 4 orders of magnitude. Coniferyl alcohol oxidation was evident within 10 minutes or with 0.01 mu g/mL laccase and 2 minutes or 0.001 mu g/mL peroxidase. Detection limit improved to 1.0 mu M coniferyl alcohol with Km of 978.7 +/- 150.7 mu M when examined at 260 nm following 30 minutes oxidation with 1.0 mu g/mL laccase. Our assays utilized the intrinsic spectroscopic properties of coniferyl alcohol or its oxidation products for enabling detection, without requiring chemical synthesis or modification of the substrate or product(s). These studies facilitate lignin compositional analyses and augment pretreatment strategies for reducing biomass recalcitrance.

AB We investigate a class of rapidly growing emission line galaxies, known as 'Green Peas', first noted by volunteers in the Galaxy Zoo project because of their peculiar bright green colour and small size, unresolved in Sloan Digital Sky Survey imaging. Their appearance is due to very strong optical emission lines, namely [O iii] lambda 5007 A, with an unusually large equivalent width of up to similar to 1000 A. We discuss a well-defined sample of 251 colour-selected objects, most of which are strongly star forming, although there are some active galactic nuclei interlopers including eight newly discovered narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies. The star-forming Peas are low-mass galaxies (M similar to 108.5-1010 M(circle dot)) with high star formation rates (similar to 10 M(circle dot) yr-1), low metallicities (log[O/H] + 12 similar to 8.7) and low reddening [E(B - V) < 0.25] and they reside in low-density environments. They have some of the highest specific star formation rates (up to similar to 10-8 yr-1) seen in the local Universe, yielding doubling times for their stellar mass of hundreds of Myr. The few star-forming Peas with Hubble Space Telescope imaging appear to have several clumps of bright star-forming regions and low surface density features that may indicate recent or ongoing mergers. The Peas are similar in size, mass, luminosity and metallicity to luminous blue compact galaxies. They are also similar to high-redshift ultraviolet-luminous galaxies, e.g. Lyman-break galaxies and Ly alpha emitters, and therefore provide a local laboratory with which to study the extreme star formation processes that occur in high-redshift galaxies. Studying starbursting galaxies as a function of redshift is essential to understanding the build up of stellar mass in the Universe.

AB The multiplicities of stars, and some other properties, were collected recently by Eggleton & Tokovinin, for the set of 4559 stars with Hipparcos magnitude brighter than 6.0 (4558 excluding the Sun). In this paper I give a numerical recipe for constructing, by a Monte Carlo technique, a theoretical ensemble of multiple stars that resembles the observed sample. Only multiplicities up to eight are allowed; the observed set contains only multiplicities up to seven. In addition, recipes are suggested for dealing with the selection effects and observational uncertainties that attend the determination of multiplicity. These recipes imply, for example, that to achieve the observed average multiplicity of 1.53, it would be necessary to suppose that the real population has an average multiplicity slightly over 2.0.
This numerical model may be useful for (i) comparison with the results of star and star cluster formation theory, (ii) population synthesis that does not ignore multiplicity above 2 and (iii) initial conditions for dynamical cluster simulations.

AB Many properties of functional materials are quite different at the nanoscale, because at this length scale, the surface/interface energy becomes comparable to the bulk energy. Thus, the nature of various phase transitions at the nanoscale (e.g., structural, electronic, magnetic, metal-insulator) is altered. In addition, in functional materials with many coupled order parameters, quantum effects can dominate the response. We use the term nanoscale with three different context-specific connotations: it could refer to a cluster of atoms or molecules, a confined geometry as in a nanoscale grain or a superlattice, and a nanoscale region in the bulk. This field is still in its infancy, and much needs to be learned in terms of nucleation and thermodynamics at this scale. Materials of interest that we consider in this issue include, but are not limited to, ferroics (ferroelectrics, ferromagnets, ferroelastics), multiferroics (magnetoelectrics, ferrotoroidics), and complex functional materials such as those that exhibit colossal magnetoresistance and high-temperature superconductivity, including the recently discovered iron pnictide superconductors. Superconductors provide a fertile ground for quantum phase transitions.

AB We report a 100000-fold increase in the conductance of individual CdSe nanorods when they are electrically contacted via direct solution phase growth of Au tips on the nanorod ends. Ensemble UV-vis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies Indicate this enhancement does not result from alloying of the nanorod. Rather, low temperature tunneling and high temperature (250-400 K) thermionic emission across the junction at the Au contact reveal a 75% lower interface barrier to conduction compared to a control sample. We correlate this barrier lowering with the electronic structure at the Au-CdSe interface. Our results emphasize the Importance of a nanocrystal surface structure for robust device performance and the advantage of this contact method.

DT Article
ID POLARIZATION
AB The polarization screening mechanism and ferroelectric phase stability of ultrathin BaTiO3 films exposed to water molecules is determined by first principles theory and in situ experiment. Surface crystallography data from electron diffraction combined with density functional theory calculations demonstrate that small water vapor exposures do not affect surface structure or polarization. Large exposures result in surface hydroxylation and rippling, formation of surface oxygen vacancies, and reversal of the polarization direction. Understanding interplay between ferroelectric phase stability, screening, and atomistic processes at surfaces is a key to control low-dimensional ferroelectricity.

Here we report the first synthesis of longitudinal heterostructured SiO(2)/Al(2)O(3) nanotubes. The ionic transport through these nanotube heterojunctions exhibits clear current rectification, a signature of ionic diode behavior.

TI Nanoscale Imaging of Exciton Transport in Organic Photovoltaic
Semiconductors by Tip-Enhanced Tunneling Luminescence
SO NANO LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID BULK-HETEROJUNCTION; SOLAR-CELLS; DISSOCIATION; MORPHOLOGY
AB In organic solar cells, the efficiency of the exciton transport and dissociation across donor-acceptor (D/A) interfaces is controlled by the nanoscale distribution of the donor and acceptor phases. The observation of photoluminescence quenching is often used as confirmation for efficient exciton dissociation but provides no information on the nanoscopic nature of the exciton transport. Here we demonstrate nanoscale imaging of the exciton transport in films consisting of the conjugated polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT, electron donor) blended with the C60 derivative 1-(3-methoxycarbonyl)-propyl-1-phenyl-(6,6)C61 (PCBM, electron acceptor) by a tunneling luminescence spectroscopy based on atomic force microscopy. The excitonic luminescence is significantly enhanced when the conjugated polymer is coupled to the plasmon excitation at the tip (tip-enhanced luminescence). This effect allows one to dramatically improve the detection efficiency of the excitonic luminescence and, consequently, resolve individual domains of the conjugated polymer in which the exciton will recombine before dissociation at the D/A Interface. Under thermal annealing conditions promoting the segregation of the donor and acceptor phases, a clear increase of the luminescence is seen from polymer-rich regions, consistent with domains of dimensions much larger than the exciton diffusion length. The described scanning luminescence microscopy can thus be applied to the optimization of the blends used in solar cells.

AB Optical antennas are elementary units used to direct optical radiation to the nanoscale. Here we demonstrate an active control over individual antenna performances by an external electrical trigger. We find that by an in-plane command of an anisotropic load medium, the electromagnetic interaction between individual elements constituting an optical antenna can be controlled, resulting in a strong polarization and tuning response. An active command of the antenna is a prerequisite for directing light wave through the utilization of such a device.

AB Hydrogen oxidation on platinum is shown to be a surface catalytic chemical reaction that generates a steady state flux of hot (>1 eV) conduction electrons. These hot electrons are detected as a steady-state chemicurrent across Pt/TiO2 Schottky diodes whose Pt surface is exposed to hydrogen and oxygen. Kinetic studies establish that the chemicurrent is proportional to turnover frequency for temperatures ranging from 298 to 373 K for P-H2 between 1 and 8 Torr and P-O2 at 760 Torr. Both chemicurrent and turnover frequency exhibit a first order dependence on P-H2.

AB Using a scattering-state approach incorporating self-energy corrections to the junction level alignment, the conductance G of oligophenyldiamine-Au junctions is calculated and elucidated. In agreement with experiment, we find G decays exponentially with the number of phenyls with decay constant beta = 1.7. A straightforward, parameter-free self-energy correction, including electronic exchange and correlations beyond density functional theory (DFT), is found to be essential for understanding the measured values of both G and beta. Importantly, our results confirm quantitatively the picture of off-resonant tunneling in these systems and show that exchange and correlation effects absent from standard DFT calculations contribute significantly to beta.

AB Materials and device architecture innovations are essential for further enhancing the performance of solar cells while potentially enabling their large-scale integration as a viable source of alternative energy. In this regard, tremendous research has been devoted in recent years with continuous progress in the field. In this article, we review the recent advancements in nanopillar-based photovoltaics while discussing the future challenges and prospects. Nanopillar arrays provide unique advantages over thin films in the areas of optical properties and carrier collection, arising from their three-dimensional geometry. The choice of the material system, however, is essential in order to gain the advantage of the large surface/interface area associated with nanopillars with the constraints different from those of the thin film devices.

TI Structural stability of icosahedral FePt nanoparticles
SO NANOSCALE
LA English
DT Article
ID SMALL PARTICLES
AB The structural stability of FePt nanoparticles of about 5-6 nm diameter was investigated by dynamic high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The FePt icosahedral were very stable under an electron beam flux of similar to 20 A/cm(2) at 300 kV. Surface sputtering was suppressed due to the large sputtering threshold energy of a Pt-rich shell. Under a flux of similar to 50 A/cm(2). the trapping potential well of the FePt particle on the supporting carbon film was lowered by the magnetic interaction between the electron beam and the particle, which leads to rotational and translational motions of the particle. A large dose of electrons (similar to 200 A/cm(2)) initiated melting and recrystallization of the FePt particle. The structure of the FePt nanoparticle, a Pt enriched shell around an Fe/Pt magnetic core, is believed to be responsible for its dynamic behaviour under different beam conditions.

TI Generation of banded iron formations by internal dynamics and leaching
of oceanic crust
SO NATURE GEOSCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
ID DEPOSITION; KINETICS; HISTORY; ORIGIN; MODEL
AB The chemical signatures and mineralogy of banded iron formations have the potential to provide information about the ocean environment on early Earth(1-7). Their formation requires iron- and silicon-rich fluids, but the mechanisms by which the alternating layers of Si- and Fe-rich rock formed remain controversial(8-11). Here we use thermodynamic calculations to show that Fe- and Si- rich fluids can be generated by hydrothermal leaching of low-Al oceanic crustal rocks such as komatiites. We find that positive feedbacks occur among the chemical reactions when hydrothermal fluids mix with ambient sea water. These feedbacks lead to alternating precipitation of Fe and Si minerals, owing to the formation of complexes between Fe(II) and silicic acid. We suggest that the small-scale (<1 cm) banding was produced by internal dynamics of the geochemical system, rather than any external forcing. As the Archaean eon progressed, the oceanic crust produced was rich in Al-12. When Al-rich crust undergoes hydrothermal alteration, Fe is locked in Al-Fe silicate minerals. This results in iron-depleted hydrothermal fluids, and thus prevents the deposition of Fe- rich minerals. We therefore conclude that the widespread cessation of banded iron formation deposition 1.7 billion years ago reflects the changing composition of the oceanic crust.

TI Enhanced ordering temperatures in antiferromagnetic manganite
superlattices
SO NATURE MATERIALS
LA English
DT Article
ID GROWTH; FILMS
AB The disorder inherent to doping by cation substitution in the complex oxides can have profound effects on collective-ordered states. Here, we demonstrate that cation-site ordering achieved through digital-synthesis techniques can dramatically enhance the antiferromagnetic ordering temperatures of manganite films. Cation-ordered (LaMnO3)(m)/(SrMnO3)(2m) superlattices show ;eel temperatures (T-N) that are the highest of any La1-xSrxMnO3 compound, similar to 70 K greater than compositionally equivalent randomly doped La1/3Sr2/3MnO3. The antiferromagnetic order is A-type, consisting of in-plane double-exchange-mediated ferromagnetic sheets coupled antiferromagnetically along the out-of-plane direction. Through synchrotron X-ray scattering, we have discovered an in-plane structural modulation that reduces the charge itinerancy and hence the ordering temperature within the ferromagnetic sheets, thereby limiting T-N. This modulation is mitigated and driven to long wavelengths by cation ordering, enabling the higher T-N values of the superlattices. These results provide insight into how cation-site ordering can enhance cooperative behaviour in oxides through subtle structural phenomena.

AB Correlated electron materials can undergo a variety of phase transitions, including superconductivity, the metal-insulator transition and colossal magnetoresistance(1). Moreover, multiple physical phases or domains with dimensions of nanometres to micrometres can coexist in these materials at temperatures where a pure phase is expected(2). Making use of the properties of correlated electron materials in device applications will require the ability to control domain structures and phase transitions in these materials. Lattice strain has been shown to cause the coexistence of metallic and insulating phases in the Mott insulator VO(2). Here, we show that we can nucleate and manipulate ordered arrays of metallic and insulating domains along single-crystal beams Of VO(2) by continuously tuning the strain over a wide range of values. The Mott transition between a low-temperature insulating phase and a high-temperature metallic phase usually occurs at 341 K in VO(2), but the active control of strain allows us to reduce this transition temperature to room temperature. In addition to device applications, the ability to control the phase structure of VO(2) with strain could lead to a deeper understanding of the correlated electron materials in general.

AB Chromatic materials such as polydiacetylene change colour in response to a wide variety of environmental stimuli, including changes in temperature, pH and chemical or mechanical stress, and have been extensively explored as sensing devices(1-4). Here, we report the facile synthesis of carbon nanotube/polydiacetylene nanocomposite fibres that rapidly and reversibly respond to electrical current, with the resulting colour change being readily observable with the naked eye. These composite fibres also chromatically respond to a broad spectrum of other stimulations. For example, they exhibit rapid and reversible stress-induced chromatism with negligible elongation. These electrochromatic nanocomposite fibres could have various applications in sensing.

AB The intriguing idea that strongly interacting electrons can generate spatially inhomogeneous electronic liquid-crystalline phases is over a decade old(1-5), but these systems still represent an unexplored frontier of condensed-matter physics. One reason is that visualization of the many-body quantum states generated by the strong interactions, and of the resulting electronic phases, has not been achieved. Soft condensed-matter physics was transformed by microscopies that enabled imaging of real-space structures and patterns. A candidate technique for obtaining equivalent data in the purely electronic systems is spectroscopic imaging scanning tunnelling microscopy (SI-STM). The core challenge is to detect the tenuous but 'heavy' momentum (k)-space components of the many-body electronic state simultaneously with its real-space constituents. Sr3Ru2O7 provides a particularly exciting opportunity to address these issues. It possesses a very strongly renormalized 'heavy' d-electron Fermi liquid(6,7) and exhibits a field-induced transition to an electronic liquid-crystalline phase(8,9). Finally, as a layered compound, it can be cleaved to present an excellent surface for SI-STM.

AB Targeted gene silencing by RNA interference (RNAi) requires loading of a short guide RNA (small interfering RNA (siRNA) or microRNA (miRNA)) onto an Argonaute protein to form the functional center of an RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). In humans, Argonaute2 (AGO2) assembles with the guide RNA-generating enzyme Dicer and the RNA-binding protein TRBP to form a RISC-loading complex (RLC), which is necessary for efficient transfer of nascent siRNAs and miRNAs from Dicer to AGO2. Here, using single-particle EM analysis, we show that human Dicer has an L-shaped structure. The RLC Dicer's N-terminal DExH/D domain, located in a short 'base branch', interacts with TRBP, whereas its C-terminal catalytic domains in the main body are proximal to AGO2. A model generated by docking the available atomic structures of Dicer and Argonaute homologs into the RLC reconstruction suggests a mechanism for siRNA transfer from Dicer to AGO2.

AB I present a spatial analysis of the galaxy distribution around the cluster Cl 0024+17. The basic aim is to find the scales where galaxies present a significant deviation from an inhomogeneous Poisson statistical process. Using the generalization of the Ripley, Besag, and the pair correlation functions for non-stationary point patterns, I estimate these transition scales for a set of 1000 Monte Carlo realizations of the Cl 0024+17 field, corrected for completeness up to the outskirts. The results point out the presence of at least two physical scales in this field at 31.4 '' and 112.9 ''. The second one is statistically consistent with the dark matter ring radius (similar to 75 '') previously identified by Jee [Jee. M.J., 2007. ApJ 661, 728]. However, morphology and anisotropy tests point out that a clump at similar to 120 '' NW from the cluster center could be the responsible for the second transition scale. These results do not indicate the existence of a galaxy counterpart of the dark matter ring, but the methodology developed to study the galaxy field as a spatial point pattern provides a good statistical evaluation of the physical scales around the cluster. I briefly discuss the usefulness of this approach to probe features in galaxy distribution and N-body dark matter simulation data. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The evaluated spectroscopic data are presented for 12 known nuclides of mass 84 (Ga, Ge, As, Se, Br, Kr, Rb, Sr, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo). Except for the stable nuelides Sr-84 and Kr-84, extensive new data are available for all the other nuclides since the 1997 evaluation by J.K. Tuli (1997Tu02) of A=84 nuclides. Many precise Penning-trap mass measurements since AME-2003 for A=84 nuclides (2009Re03,2008Ha23,2008We10,2007Ke09,2006Ka48, 2006De36,2006Ri15) have resulted in improved Q values and separation energies. However, many deficiencies still remain. Some examples are given below. Excited-state data for Ga-84 and As-84 are nonexistent, and those for Ge-84 are scarce, The radioactive decay Schemes of Ga-84, Ge-84, Se-84, Y-84 (39.5 min), Y-84 (4.6 s), Zr-84 and Nb-84 suffer from incompleteness and that for Mo-84 decay is not known at all. The energy ordering of the two activities (39.5 min and and 4.6 8) of Y-84 is not well established, although, high-spin with tentative spin-parity of (6+) is adopted here as the ground State of Y-84 based on weak arguments. From a conference report published in 2000, it is clear that extensive experiments were done to investigate decays of Zr-84 and Y-84, but details of these studies never appeared in literature and none were made available to the evaluators when requested from original authors.
This evaluation was carried out as part of ENSDF workshop for Nuclear Structure and Decay Data Evaluators, organized and hosted by the "Horia Hulubei" National Institute for Physics and Nuclear Engineering, Bucharest, Romania during March 30, 2009 - April 3, 2009. Names of the evaluators principally responsible for evaluation of individual nuelides are given under the respective Adopted data sets.

TI Corium crust strength measurements
SO NUCLEAR ENGINEERING AND DESIGN
LA English
DT Article
ID WATER; COOLABILITY; BEHAVIOR
AB Corium strength is of interest in the context of a severe reactor accident in which molten core material melts through the reactor vessel and collects on the containment basemat. Some accident management strategies involve pouring water over the melt to solidify it and halt corium/concrete interactions. The effectiveness of this method could be influenced by the strength of the corium crust at the interface between the melt and coolant. A strong, coherent crust anchored to the containment walls could allow the yet-molten corium to fall away from the crust as it erodes the basemat, thereby thermally decoupling the melt from the coolant and sharply reducing the cooling rate. This paper presents a diverse collection of measurements of the mechanical strength of corium. The data is based on load tests of corium samples in three different contexts: (1) small blocks cut from the debris of the large-scale MACE experiments, (2) 30 cm-diameter, 75 kg ingots produced by SSWICS quench tests, and (3) high temperature crusts loaded during large-scale corium/concrete interaction (CCI) tests. In every case the corium consisted of varying proportions of UO(2), ZrO(2), and the constituents of concrete to represent a LWR melt at different stages of a molten core/concrete interaction. The collection of data was used to assess the strength and stability of an anchored, plant-scale crust. The results indicate that such a crust is likely to be too weak to support itself above the melt. It is therefore improbable that an anchored crust configuration could persist and the melt become thermally decoupled from the water layer to restrict cooling and prolong an attack of the reactor cavity concrete.

AB The National Ignition Facility (NIF) will allow scientists to prove the feasibility of inertial confinement fusion (ICF). The success of ICF experiments at NIF will critically depend on the availability of robust targets. Guided by computer simulations, we generated a new target design that takes advantage of the extreme atomic density of synthetic diamond, and developed a process that allows us to produce large quantities of these ultrahigh precision diamond targets via a low-cost batch process. Computer simulations were used to assess the performance and the robustness of these diamond targets. The results demonstrate that diamond has the potential to outperform other target materials in terms of energy efficiency and implosion stability, thus making successful ignition more likely.

AB Concept designs for the laser inertial fusion/fission energy (LIFE) engine include a neutron multiplication blanket containing Be pebbles flowing in a molten salt coolant. These pebbles must be designed to withstand the extreme irradiation and temperature conditions in the blanket to enable a reliable and cost-effective operation of LIFE. In this work, we develop design criteria for spherical Be pebbles on the basis of their thermo-mechanical behaviour under continued neutron exposure. We consider the effects of high fluence and fast fluxes on the elastic, thermal and mechanical properties of nuclear-grade Be. Our results suggest a maximum pebble diameter of 30 mm to avoid tensile failure, coated with an anti-corrosive, high-strength metallic shell to avoid failure by pebble contact. Moreover, we find that the operation temperature must always be kept above 450 degrees C to enable creep to relax the stresses induced by swelling. Under these circumstances, we estimate the pebble lifetime to be at least 16 months if uncoated, and up to six years when coated. We identify the sources of uncertainty on the properties used and discuss the advantages of new intermetallic beryllides and their use in LIFE's neutron multiplier. To establish Be-pebble lifetimes with improved confidence, reliable experiments to measure irradiation creep must be performed.

AB In DIII-D, experiments have been performed in hydrogen plasmas to determine the requirement for hydrogen operation in ITER. The H-mode threshold power has been determined to increase with input torque for both hydrogen and deuterium plasmas with the H-mode power threshold for hydrogen plasmas being greater by approximately a factor of 2 at zero torque than in comparable deuterium plasmas. The threshold power for hydrogen discharges with full counter-current beam injection is roughly the same as the threshold power for deuterium discharges with co-current beam injection. The plasma geometry also influences the power threshold through the vertical distance between the X-point and the divertor surface.

AB The flow velocities of deuterons and low charge-state carbon ions have been measured simultaneously in the main scrape-off-layer (SOL) in low-density plasmas in DIII-D, and the dependences of these flow fields on the direction of the cross-field drifts (E x B and B x del B) have been investigated. These measurements were taken poloidally localized in the SOL region vertically opposite the divertor X-point. The carbon ion flows do not necessarily match those of the deuterons either in the direction with respect to the magnetic field lines or in magnitude, suggesting that physics effects apart from entrainment play a significant role in the impurity response. In configurations with the ion B x del B drift towards the divertor X-point, the parallel-B deuteron velocities at the plasma crown are high (-20 to -30 km s(-1) in the direction of the high field side (HFS) divertor), while they are nearly zero in configurations with the opposite B x del B drift direction. The flow direction of singly and doubly charged carbon ions is independent of the ion B x del B drift direction, and the ions flow at approximately -5 to -10 km s(-1) towards the HFS divertor. Simulations with the UEDGE code have been carried out to better understand the underlying physics processes. Inclusion of cross-field drifts in the simulations produced divertor solutions for density and temperature that agree significantly better with measured divertor parameters. These simulations do not, however, reproduce the measured flow fields at the crown for the configuration with the ion B x del B drift towards the divertor X-point. The UEDGE code has also been used to understand the influence of pumping at the HFS divertor plate, and a poloidal dependence in the radial transport coefficient.

TI Experimental vertical stability studies for ITER performance and design

SO NUCLEAR FUSION
LA English
DT Article
ID OPERATION
AB Operating experimental devices have provided key inputs to the design process for ITER axisymmetric control. In particular, experiments have quantified controllability and robustness requirements in the presence of realistic noise and disturbance environments, which are difficult or impossible to characterize with modelling and simulation alone. This kind of information is particularly critical for ITER vertical control, which poses the highest demands on poloidal field system performance, since the consequences of loss of vertical control can be severe. This work describes results of multi-machine studies performed under a joint ITPA experiment (MDC-13) on fundamental vertical control performance and controllability limits. We present experimental results from Alcator C-Mod, DIII-D, NSTX, TCV and JET, along with analysis of these data to provide vertical control performance guidance to ITER. Useful metrics to quantify this control performance include the stability margin and maximum controllable vertical displacement. Theoretical analysis of the maximum controllable vertical displacement suggests effective approaches to improving performance in terms of this metric, with implications for ITER design modifications. Typical levels of noise in the vertical position measurement and several common disturbances which can challenge the vertical control loop are assessed and analysed.

ID CONSUMPTION; OPERATION
AB DIII-D experiments have investigated ITER startup scenarios, including an initial phase where the plasma was limited on low field side poloidal bumper limiters. In addition, l(i) feedback control has been tested with the goal of producing discharges in ITER within the capabilities of the poloidal field coil set and favourable to the intended mode of operations in the subsequent constant current (flattop) phase. These discharges have been modelled using the Corsica free boundary equilibrium code. High performance hybrid scenario discharges (beta(N) = 2.8, H(98, y2) = 1.4) and ITER H-mode baseline discharges (beta(N) > 1.6, H(98, y2) = 1-1.2) have been obtained experimentally in an ITER similar shape after the ITER-relevant startup. Studies have been initiated to develop a reliable scenario for exiting the burn phase and ramping down the plasma current in ITER without disruptions.

AB The injected power required to induce a transition from L-mode to H-mode plasmas is found to depend strongly on the injected neutral beam torque and consequent plasma toroidal rotation. Edge turbulence and flows, measured near the outboard midplane of the plasma (0.85 < r/a < 1.0) on DIII-D with the high-sensitivity 2D beam emission spectroscopy (BES) system, likewise vary with rotation and suggest a causative connection. The L-H power threshold in plasmas with the ion del B drift directed away from the X-point decreases from 4-6 MW with co-current beam injection, to 2-3 MW near zero net injected torque and to <2 MW with counter-injection in the discharges examined. Plasmas with the ion del B drift directed towards the X-point exhibit a qualitatively similar though less pronounced power threshold dependence on rotation. 2D edge turbulence measurements with BES show an increasing poloidal flow shear as the L-H transition is approached in all conditions. As toroidal rotation is varied from co-current to balanced in L-mode plasmas, the edge turbulence changes from a uni-modal character to a bi-modal structure, with the appearance of a low-frequency (f = 10-50 kHz) mode propagating in the electron diamagnetic direction, similar to what is observed as the ion del B drift is directed towards the X-point in co-rotating plasmas. At low rotation, the poloidal turbulence flow near the edge reverses prior to the L-H transition, generating a significant poloidal flow shear that exceeds the measured turbulence decorrelation rate. This increased poloidal turbulence velocity shear appears to facilitate the L-H transition. No such reversal is observed in high rotation plasmas. The high-frequency poloidal turbulence velocity spectrum exhibits a transition from a geodesic acoustic mode zonal flow to a higher-power, lower frequency zero-mean-frequency zonal flow as rotation varies from co-current to balanced during a torque scan at constant injected neutral beam power, perhaps also facilitating the L-H transition. This reduced power threshold at lower toroidal rotation may benefit inherently low-rotation plasmas such as ITER.

AB We report the results of predictive modelling of high performance steady state operation scenarios in KSTAR. Firstly, the capabilities of steady state operation are investigated with time-dependent simulations using a free-boundary plasma equilibrium evolution code coupled with transport calculations. Secondly, the reproducibility of high performance steady state operation scenarios developed in the DIII-D tokamak, of similar size to that of KSTAR, is investigated using the experimental data taken from DIII-D. Finally, the capability of ITER-relevant steady state operation is investigated in KSTAR. It is found that KSTAR is able to establish high performance steady state operation scenarios; beta(N) above 3, H-98(y, 2) up to 2.0, f(BS) up to 0.76 and f(NI) equals 1.0. In this work, a realistic density profile is newly introduced for predictive simulations by employing the scaling law of a density peaking factor. The influence of the current ramp-up scenario and the transport model is discussed with respect to the fusion performance and non-inductive current drive fraction in the transport simulations. As observed in the experiments, both the heating and the plasma current waveforms in the current ramp-up phase produce a strong effect on the q-profile, the fusion performance and also on the non-inductive current drive fraction in the current flattop phase. A criterion in terms of q(min) is found to establish ITER-relevant steady state operation scenarios. This will provide a guideline for designing the current ramp-up phase in KSTAR. It is observed that the transport model also affects the predictive values of fusion performance as well as the non-inductive current drive fraction. The Weiland transport model predicts the highest fusion performance as well as non-inductive current drive fraction in KSTAR. In contrast, the GLF23 model exhibits the lowest ones. ITER-relevant advanced scenarios cannot be obtained with the GLF23 model in the conditions given in this work. Finally, ideal MHD stability is investigated for the ITER-relevant advanced scenarios in KSTAR. The methods and results presented in this paper are expected to contribute to improving the ITER and beyond ITER predictive simulations.

TI Effect of resonant and non-resonant magnetic braking on error field
tolerance in high beta plasmas

TOKAMAKS; STABILIZATION; ROTATION; INSTABILITY; STABILITY
AB Tokamak plasmas become less tolerant to externally applied non-axisymmetric magnetic 'error' fields as beta increases, due to a resonant interaction of the non-axisymmetric field with a stable n = 1 kink mode. Similar to observations in low beta plasmas, the limit to tolerable n = 1 magnetic field errors in neutral beam injection heated H-mode plasmas is seen as a bifurcation in the torque balance, which is followed by error field-driven locked modes and severe confinement degradation or a disruption. The error field tolerance is, therefore, largely determined by the braking torque resulting from the non-axisymmetric magnetic field. DIII-D experiments distinguish between a resonant-like torque, which decreases with increasing rotation, and a non-resonant-like torque, which increases with increasing rotation. While only resonant braking leads to a rotation collapse, modelling shows that non-resonant components can lower the tolerance to resonant components. The strong reduction of the error field tolerance with increasing beta, which has already been observed in early high beta experiments in DIII-D (La Haye et al 1992 Nucl. Fusion 32 2119), is linked to an increasing resonant field amplification resulting from a stable kink mode (Boozer 2001 Phys. Rev. Lett. 86 5059). The amplification of externally applied n = 1 fields is measured with magnetic pick-up coils at normalized beta values as low as 1 and seen to increase with beta. The rate at which the amplification increases with beta becomes larger above the no-wall ideal MHD stability limit, where kinetic effects stabilize the resistive wall mode. The extent of the beta dependence and its importance for low torque scenarios was not previously appreciated, and was not included in the empirical scaling of the error field tolerance for ITER, which focused on the lowest density phase of a discharge prior to H-mode access (Buttery et al 1999 Nucl. Fusion 39 1827, 1999 ITER Physics Basis Nucl. Fusion 39 2137). However, the measurable increase in the plasma response with beta can be exploited for 'dynamic' correction (i.e. with slow magnetic feedback) of the amplified error field.

AB Trapping of tritium at lattice damage from fusion neutron irradiation is expected to increase the tritium inventory in tungsten components in ITER. The magnitude of this increase depends on the concentration of traps that are produced, and on the depth to which the increased tritium retention extends into the material. Experiments to address these issues are described, in which displacement damage by ion irradiation was used as a surrogate for neutron damage. Irradiated samples were exposed to high flux deuterium plasma to simulate divertor conditions. The resulting deuterium content was measured by nuclear reaction analysis. Measurements were done at various damage levels up to those expected from the end-of-life neutron fluence in ITER. These experiments determine the number of traps produced by displacement damage and the rate at which they are filled during exposure to plasma. The role of defect annealing was explored through plasma exposures at various temperatures. In addition to trapping at damage, near-surface retention from internal precipitation was observed at lower temperatures. Addition of 5% helium to the deuterium plasma greatly reduced D retention by precipitation by localizing it closer to the surface. Results from these experiments indicate that the contribution to tritium inventory in ITER from trapping at neutron damage should be small.

ID CONFINEMENT; ELECTRONS
AB On the Alcator C-Mod tokamak, lower hybrid current drive (LHCD) is being used to modify the current profile with the aim of obtaining advanced tokamak (AT) performance in plasmas with parameters similar to those that would be required on ITER. To date, power levels in excess of 1 MW at a frequency of 4.6 GHz have been coupled into a variety of plasmas. Experiments have established that LHCD on C-Mod behaves globally as predicted by theory. Bulk current drive efficiencies, n(20)I(lh)R/P(lh) similar to 0.25, inferred from magnetics and MSE are in line with theory. Quantitative comparisons between local measurements, MSE, ECE and hard x-ray bremsstrahlung, and theory/simulation using the GENRAY, TORIC-LH CQL3D and TSC-LSC codes have been performed. These comparisons have demonstrated the off-axis localization of the current drive, its magnitude and location dependence on the launched n(parallel to) spectrum, and the use of LHCD during the current ramp to save volt-seconds and delay the peaking of the current profile. Broadening of the x-ray emission profile during ICRF heating indicates that the current drive location can be controlled by the electron temperature, as expected. In addition, an alteration in the plasma toroidal rotation profile during LHCD has been observed with a significant rotation in the counter-current direction. Notably, the rotation is accompanied by peaking of the density and temperature profiles on a current diffusion time scale inside of the half radius where the LH absorption is taking place.

AB Full exploitation of the physics potential of a future International Linear Collider will require the use of polarized electron and positron beams. Experiment E166 at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) has demonstrated a scheme in which an electron beam passes through a helical undulator to generate photons (whose first-harmonic spectrum extended to 7.9MeV) with circular polarization, which are then converted in a thin target to generate longitudinally polarized positrons and electrons. The experiment was carried out with a 1-m-long, 400-period, pulsed helical undulator in the Final Focus Test Beam (FFTB) operated at 46.6 GeV. Measurements of the positron polarization have been performed at five positron energies from 4.5 to 7.5 MeV. In addition, the electron polarization has been determined at 6.7 MeV, and the effect of operating the undulator with a ferrofluid was also investigated. To compare the measurements with expectations, detailed simulations were made with an upgraded version of GEANT4 that includes the dominant polarization-dependent interactions of electrons, positrons. and photons with matter. The measurements agree with calculations, corresponding to 80% polarization for positrons near 6 MeV and 90% for electrons near 7 MeV. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Spectroscopic gamma-ray detectors are used for many research, industrial, and homeland-security applications. Thallium-doped sodium iodide (NaI(Tl)) scintillation crystals coupled to photomultiplier tubes provide medium resolution spectral data about the surrounding environment. NaI(Tl)-based detectors, paired with spectral identification algorithms, are often effective for identifying gamma-ray sources by isotope. However, intrinsic limitations for NaI(Tl) systems exist, including gain shifts and spectral marring (e.g., loss of resolution and count-rate saturation) at high count rates. These effects are hardware-dependent and have strong effects on the radioisotopic identification capability of NaI(Tl)-based systems. In this work, the effects of high count rate on the response of isotope-identification algorithms are explored. It is shown that a small gain shift of a few tens of keV is sufficient to disturb identification.

AB Implanted neon targets were produced for nuclear astrophysics experiments at the Ruhr-Universitat Bochum, and their characteristics were studied at the University of Notre Dame. The Ne ions were implanted sequentially at two different energies to create a more uniform depth distribution. The targets were stable under high beam loads. To reduce the amount of oxygen contamination on the target's surface, a procedure of chemical cleaning and thermal outgassing of targets was developed. The impact of this treatment on implanted Ne targets was investigated and found to reduce the oxygen amount by a factor of 4. The depth profile of the implanted Ne atoms was studied via narrow (p,gamma) resonances while the oxygen contamination was monitored using the Deuteron-Induced gamma-ray Emission (DIGE) method.

AB The BRAHMS experiment was designed to measure and characterize in particular the properties of rapidity dependence of particle production in heavy ion collisions. The data-taking is now over, results of several years of analysis have been published and demonstrates several important features of the rapidity dependence, not envisioned from the start of the RHIC program. The bulk properties of the system formed at high rapidity resemble that of systems at lower energies at mid-rapidity when referenced via the baryo-chemical potential. New physics in AA are essentially observed at mid-rapidity including the demonstration that high-p(T) suppression is a final state effect. Another key result is that in d+A collisions at forward rapidities where the very low-x region of the nucleus was probed, a strong suppression of pion production was observed consistent with the picture of gluon saturation. The latest results examines the centrality and rapidity dependence of nuclear stopping, the particle production of pions, collective expansion vs. rapidity, and the baryon enhancement at intermediate values Of p(T).

AB Identified particles have long been of great interest at RHIC in large part because of the baryon/meson differences observed at intermediate p(T) and the implications for hadronization via quark coalescence. With recent high statistics data identified particles are also now central to understanding the details of the jet-medium interactions and energy loss and hadron formation at intermediate and high p(T). In particular, high p(T) identified particle spectra along with two-particle correlations triggered with direct photons, neutral pions or electrons from heavy flavor decay with hadrons can provide information about how medium modifications to jet fragmentation depend on parton type. I will review recent results with identified particles both in heavy ion systems and the reference measurements in p+p collisions.

AB Full jet reconstruction has traditionally been thought to be difficult in heavy ion events due to large multiplicity backgrounds. The search for new physics in high luminosity p+p collisions at the LHC similarly requires the precise measurement of jets over large backgrounds caused by pile up; this has motivated the development of a new generation of jet reconstruction algorithms which are also applicable in the heavy ion environment. We review the latest results on jet-medium interactions as seen in A+A collisions at RHIC, focusing on the new techniques for full jet reconstruction.

We present a systematic analysis of elliptic flow (v(2)) for identified particles measured in Au + Au and Cu + Cu collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV. Number of quark scaling is tested in the intermediate p(T) region and in the smaller system (Cu + Cu). The Cu + Cu collisions results are compared with those from ideal hydrodynamic model calculations.

ID EXCITATIONS
AB We analyze the quark spectral function above and below the critical temperature for deconfinement and at finite momentum in quenched lattice QCD. It is found that the temporal quark correlation function in the deconfined phase near the critical temperature is well reproduced by a two-pole ansatz for the spectral function. The bare quark mass and momentum dependences of the spectral function are analyzed with this ansatz. In the chiral limit we find that even near the critical temperature the quark spectral function has two collective modes corresponding to the normal and plasmino excitations in the high temperature (T) limit. The pole mass of these modes at zero momentum, which should be identified to be the thermal mass of the quark, is approximately proportional to T in a rather wide range of T in the deconfined phase.

AB The free energy between a static quark and an antiquark is studied by using the color-singlet Polyakov-line correlation at finite temperature in lattice QCD with 2+1 flavors of improved Wilson quarks. From the simulations on 32(3) X 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 lattices in the high temperature phase, based on the fixed scale approach, we find that, the heavy-quark free energies at short distance converge to the heavy-quark potential evaluated from the Wilson loop at zero temperature, in accordance with the expected insensitivity of short distance physics to the temperature. At long distance, the heavy-quark free energies approach to twice the single-quark free energies, implying that the interaction between heavy quarks is screened. The Debye screening mass obtained from the long range behavior of the free energy is compared with the results of thermal perturbation theory.

AB While strong attenuation of single particle production and particle correlations has provided convincing evidence for large parton energy loss in the QGP, its application to jet tomography has inherent limitations due to the inclusive nature of the measurements. Generalization of this suppression to full jet observables leads to an unbiased, more differential and thus powerful approach to determining the characteristics of the hot QCD medium created in high-energy nuclear collisions. In this article we report on recent theoretical progress in calculating jet shapes and the related jet cross sections in the presence of QGP-induced parton energy loss. (i) A theoretical model of intra-jet energy flow in heavy-ion collisions is discussed. (ii) Realistic numerical simulations demonstrate the nuclear modification factor R(AA)(p(T)) evolves continuously with the jet cone size R(max) or the acceptance cut omega(min) - a novel feature of jet quenching. The anticipated broadening of jets is subtle and most readily manifested in the periphery of the cone for smaller cone radii.

AB We discuss how the different estimates of elliptic flow are influenced by flow fluctuations and nonflow effects. It is explained why the event-plane method yields estimates between the two-particle correlation methods and the multiparticle correlation methods. It is argued that nonflow effects and fluctuations cannot be disentangled without other assumptions. However, we provide equations where, with reasonable assumptions about fluctuations and nonflow, all measured values of elliptic flow converge to a unique mean v(2,PP) elliptic flow in the participant plane. Thus, the 20% spread in observed elliptic flow measurements from different analysis methods is no longer mysterious.

AB Using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we compute the medium-induced energy loss of a decelerating heavy quark moving through a strongly-coupled supersymmetric Yang Mills plasma. In the regime where the deceleration is small, a perturbative calculation is possible and we obtain the first two corrections to the energy-loss rate of a heavy quark with constant velocity. The thermalization of the heavy quark is also discussed.

In this article, the recent analysis of m-id-rapidity (|y| < 1) J/psi production via the dielectron decay channel in Au+Au (year 2007) and Cu+Cu (year 2005) collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV at STAR is reported. It is compared to STAR p+p results in order to study the nuclear modification factor as a function of transverse momentum and centrality. The results are compared to previously published data and available theoretical models.

AB The interaction of heavy partons, charm and beauty, with the matter created in heavy ion collisions has been of great interest in recent years. Heavy partons were predicted to interact less strongly with the matter than light partons. In apparent contrast to these predictions, unexpectedly strong suppression of non-photonic electrons from heavy flavor decays has been seen. However, significant experimental uncertainties remain, both in the measurements themselves and in the separation of the contribution from charm and beauty, which have complicated the interpretation of these results. The current experimental situation is critically reviewed and prospects for making these measurements more easily interpretable discussed.

ID DIRECT PHOTON PRODUCTION
AB Within the next-to-leading order (NLO) perturbative QCD (pQCD) parton model, suppression of away-side hadron spectra associated with a high p(T) photon due to parton energy loss is shown to provide a complete tomographic picture of the dense matter formed in high-energy heavy-ion collisions at RHIC. Dictated by the shape of the gamma-triggered jet spectrum in NLO pQCD, hadron spectra at large z(T) = p(T)(h)/p(T)(gamma) (greater than or similar to) 1 are more susceptible to parton energy loss and therefore are dominated by surface emission of gamma -triggered jets, whereas small z(T) hadrons mainly come from fragmentation of jets with reduced energy from volume emission. These lead to different centrality dependence of the hadron suppression in different regions Of z(T).

AB In this contribution we present an alternative scenario for the large elliptic flow observed in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Motivated by recent results from Lattice QCD on flavor off-diagonal susceptibilities we argue that the matter right above T(c) can be described by single-particle dynamics in a repulsive single-particle potential, which in turn gives rise to elliptic flow. These ideas can be tested experimentally by measuring elliptic flow of heavy quarks, preferably via the measurement of J/Psi elliptic flow.

AB We review what is known about the contributions to the final entropy from the different stages of a relativistic nuclear collision, including recent results on the decoherence entropy and the entropy produced during the hydrodynamic phase by viscous effects. We then present a general framework, based on the Husimi distribution function, for the calculation of entropy growth in quantum field theories, which is applicable to the earliest ("glasma") phase of the collision during which most of the entropy is generated. The entropy calculated from the Husimi distribution exhibits linear growth when the quantum field contains unstable modes and is asymptotically equal to the Kolmogorov-Sinai (KS) entropy. We outline how the approach can be used to investigate the problem of entropy production in a relativistic heavy-ion reaction from first principles.

ID ELECTRODYNAMICS
AB Non-Abelian gauge theories "live" in a space-time with non-trivial topology that can be characterized by an odd-dimensional Chern-Simons form. In QCD, Chern-Simons form is induced by the chiral anomaly and the presence of topological solutions; it opens a possibility for the breaking of P and CP invariances in strong interactions ("the strong CP problem"). While there is apparently no global P and CP violation in QCD, here I argue that topological fluctuations in hot quark-gluon matter can become directly observable in the presence of a very intense external magnetic field by inducing local P- and CP- odd effects. These phenomena can be described by using the Maxwell-Chern-Simons electrodynamics as an effective theory. Local P and CP violation in hot QCD matter can be observed in experiment through the "chiral magnetic effect" - the separation of electric charge along the axis of magnetic field that is created by the colliding relativistic ions. There is a recent evidence for the electric charge separation relative to the reaction plane of heavy ion collisions from the STAR Collaboration at RHIC.

ID STRONG EXTERNAL SOURCES; HIGH-ENERGY SCATTERING; HEAVY-ION COLLISIONS
AB We discuss results for n-gluon correlations that form the basis of the Glasma flux tube picture of early times in heavy ion collisions. Our formalism is valid to all orders in perturbation theory at leading logarithmic accuracy in x and includes both QCD bremsstrahlung and the many body screening and recombination effects that are important at large parton densities. Long range rapidity correlations, as seen in the near-side ridge in heavy ion collisions, are a chronometer of these early time strong color field dynamics. They also contain information on how radial flow develops in heavy ion collisions.

AB We formulate a simple model for a gas of extended hadrons at zero chemical potential by taking inspiration from the compressible bag model. We show that a crossover transition qualitatively similar to lattice QCD can be reproduced by such a system by including some appropriate additional dynamics. Under certain conditions, at high temperature, the system consists of a finite number of infinitely extended bags, which occupy the entire space. In this situation the system behaves as an ideal gas of quarks and gluons.

ID HEAVY-ION COLLISIONS; ELLIPTIC FLOW
AB In relativistic heavy-ion collisions, the system has gone through a series of evolution, almost at every stage of its evolution it leaves behind footprints in flow observable. Those footprints contain valuable information of the bulk property of the (nearly) perfect liquid. By examing footprints of the nearly perfect liquid, we address a few important issues, including the ideal hydrodynamic limit, estimation of eta/s, testing the Number of Constituent Quark scaling at low energy, in small system, at large transverse momentum, and in forward region. Future prospect of flow study is discussed.

AB The suppression of high-P-T particles in heavy ion collisions was one of the key discoveries at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. This is usually parameterized by the average rate of momentum-transfer squared to this particle, (q) over cap. Here we argue that measurements of identified particles at high P-T, can lead to complementary information about the medium. The leading particle of a jet can change its identity through interactions with the medium. Tracing such flavor conversions could allow us to constrain the mean free path. Here we review the basic concepts of flavor conversions and discuss applications to particle ratios and elliptic flow. We make a prediction that strangeness is enhanced at high P-T at RHIC energies while its elliptic flow is suppressed.

It is found that the shape of an effective potential changes gradually as the temperature decreases and a first order phase transition appears in the low temperature and high density region. This result strongly Suggests the existence of the critical point in the (T, mu(q)) phase diagram.

AB We present results from recent calculations of the QCD equation of state by the HotQCD Collaboration and review the implications for hydrodynamic modeling. The equation of state of QCD at zero baryon density was calculated on a lattice of dimensions 32(3) x 8 with m(l) = 0.1 m(s) (corresponding to a pion mass of similar to 220 MeV) using two improved staggered fermion actions, p4 and asqtad. Calculations were performed along lines of constant physics using more than 100M cpu-hours on BG/L supercomputers at LLNL, NYBlue, and SDSC. We present parameterizations of the equation of state suitable for input into hydrodynamics models of heavy ion collisions.

AB We propose a fixed scale approach to calculate the equation of state (EOS) in lattice QCD. In this approach, the temperature T is varied by N(t) at fixed lattice spacings. This enables us to reduce T = 0 simulations which are required to provide basic data in finite temperature studies but are quite expensive in the conventional fixed-N(t) approach. Since the conventional integral method to obtain the pressure is inapplicable at fixed scale, we introduce a new method, "T-integration method", to calculate pressure non-perturbatively. We test the fixed scale approach armed with the T-integral method in quenched QCD on isotropic and anisotropic lattices. Our method is found to be powerful to obtain reliable results for the equation of state, especially at intermediate and low temperatures. Reduction of the computational cost of T = 0 simulations is indispensable to study EOS in QCD with dynamical quarks. The status of our study in N(f) = 2 + 1 QCD with improved Wilson quarks is also reported.

AB In order to clarify the source of the discrepancy between our previous transition temperature determination [Phys. Lett. B 643, 46 (2006)] and that of the Bielefeld-Brookhaven-Columbia-Riken collaboration we improved our calculations by taking even smaller lattice spacings (N(t) = 12 and N(t) = 16 at one point) and by using physical quark masses also for the T=0 quantities. In addition to the kaon decay constant used for scale setting we determine four quantities (masses of the Omega baryon, K*(892) and phi(1020) mesons and the pion decay constant) which are found to agree with experiment. This implies that -independently of which of these quantities is used to set the overall scale- the same results are obtained within a few percent. At finite temperature we use finer lattices down to a less than or similar to 0.1 fm. Our new results confirm completely our previous findings. We compare the results with those of the 'hotQCD' collaboration.

AB We present Hanbury-Brown Twiss measurements from the PHENIX experiment at RHIC for final results for charged kaon pairs from root s(NN) = 200 GeV Au+Au collisions and preliminary results for charged pion pairs from root s = 200 GeV p+p collisions. We find that for kaon pairs from Au+Au, each traditional 3D Gaussian radius shows approximately the same linear increase as a function of N(part)(1/3). An imaging analysis reveals a significant non-Gaussian tail for r greater than or similar to 10 fm. The presence of a tail for kaon pairs demonstrates that similar non-Gaussian tails observed in earlier pion measurements cannot be fully explained by decays of long-lived resonances. The preliminary analysis of pions from root s = 200 GeV p+p minimum biased collisions show correlations which are well suited to traditional 3D HBT radii extraction via the Bowler-Sinyukov method, and we present R(out), R(side), and R(long) as a function of mean transverse pair mass.

AB We elucidate the role of time scales that determine heavy quark dynamics in the QGP. Quark-antiquark potentials extracted from the lattice are used to demonstrate the existence of open heavy flavor bound-state solutions in the vicinity of the critical temperature, and their light cone wavefunctions are obtained. We use these wavefunctions to calculate the in-medium modification of the heavy quark distribution and decay probabilities. For the case of high p(T) D or B mesons traversing the QGP, we combine the new meson formation and dissociation mechanism with the traditional parton-level charm and beauty quark quenching to obtain predictions for the heavy meson and non-photonic electron suppression in Cu+Cu and Pb+Pb collisions at RHIC and the LHC, respectively.

AB Cosmic-rays with energies up to 3 x 10(20) eV have been observed. The nuclear composition of these cosmic rays is unknown but if the incident nuclei are protons then the corresponding center of mass energy is root s(nn) = 700 TeV. High energy muons can be used to probe the composition of these incident nuclei. The energy spectra of high-energy (> 1 TeV) cosmic ray induced muons have been measured with deep underground or under-ice detectors. These muons come from pion and kaon decays and from charm production in the atmosphere.
Terrestrial experiments are most sensitive to far-forward muons so the production rates are sensitive to high-x partons in the incident nucleus and low-x partons in the nitrogen/oxygen targets. Muon measurements can complement the central-particle data collected at colliders. This paper will review muon production data and discuss some non-perturbative (soft) models that have been used to interpret the data. I will show measurements of TeV muon transverse momentum (p(T)) spectra in cosmic-ray air showers from MACRO, and describe how the IceCube neutrino observatory and the proposed Km3Net detector will extend these measurements to a higher p(T) region where perturbative QCD should apply. With a 1 km(2) surface area, the full IceCube detector should observe hundreds of muons/year with p(T) in the pQCD regime.

ID ELLIPTIC FLOW; ECCENTRICITY FLUCTUATIONS; SPS
AB I review the recent progress in measuring elliptic flow in heavy ion collisions. These measurements show clearly how hydrodynamics starts to develop as the system size is increased from peripheral to central collisions. During this transition, the momentum range described by hydrodynamics increases as the system progresses from a kinetic to a hydrodynamic regime. Many of the systematic deviations from ideal hydrodynamics are reproduced effortlessly once the shear viscosity is included. In order to extract the shear viscosity from the data, kinetic theory can be used to determine which aspects of the elliptic flow reflect the details of the microscopic interactions, and which aspects reflect the underlying transport coefficients. I also review the identified hadron elliptic flow and the predictions of hydrodynamics for the LHC.

AB I give a general overview of the theory of thle Quark-Gluon Plasma (QC:P) about the temperature for deconfinement, where the theory is only partially deconfined. I review three topics relevant to study of such a "semi"-QGP. The first is the semi-classical computation of the spatial 't Hooft loop. This is equivalent to computing the interface tension between two Z(N) domains, and indicates how the confined phase is approached from high temperature. The second topic is effective matrix models of Polyakov loops. The last topic is the computation of hard thermal loops in the presence of a spatial 't Hooft loop, as a way of probing the real time properties of tale semi-QGP.

AB I give a pedagogical review of how cold, dense quark matter call be viewed as "Quarkyonic", at least when the number of colors is large (and the number of flavors, small). This provides a different way of viewing the excitation spectrum of dense quarks. while the free energy is, up to power law corrections; close to that of free quarks, the excitation spectrum is very different, dominated by confined, collective excitations near the Fermi surface.

ID NUCLEAR-DATA LIBRARY
AB Subcritical measurements were conducted with an a-phase plutonium sphere reflected by nickel hemishells using the (252)Cf source-driven noise analysis method to provide criticality safety benchmark data. Measured configurations included a bare plutonium sphere as well as the plutonium sphere reflected by the following nickel thicknesses: 1.27, 2.54, 3.81, 5.08, and 7.62 cm. A certain ratio of spectral quantities was measured for each configuration, which varies linearly with the k(eff) of the system under small perturbations. In addition, two types of Monte Carlo calculations were employed: a modified version of MCNP to calculate the ratio of spectral quantities and a KCODE calculation. From the measured and computed quantities, the effective multiplication factor of each configuration can be approximated. The inferred k(eff) for all six configurations compared well with computed values. A comprehensive uncertainty analysis was then performed that includes uncertainties in the geometry and materials present in the system in addition to the uncertainties in the method and nuclear data.

ID INTRANUCLEAR-CASCADE CALCULATION
AB The limited availability of coupled multigroup proton/neutron cross-section libraries has hampered the use of deterministic transport methods for solving shielding problems involving energetic proton sources. Libraries are developed from evaluated nuclear data for low-energy transport and the physics models of MCNPX for intermediate-energy transport. They allow deterministic solutions of orbiting spacecraft shielding problems. Evaluated cross sections for protons and neutrons are available for many nuclides up to 150 MeV. NJOY99 is used to produce coupled multigroup proton/neutron cross sections from these. For higher energies, MCNPX is run in its cross-section calculation mode where the XSEX3 program is used to tally double-differential cross sections. The XSEX3 program was modified to discretize the cross sections in energy and output Legendre expansions for angular dependence. The NJOY99 and modified XSEX3 output are combined to produce cross-section libraries for energies up to 400 MeV. The libraries are used to solve trapped proton flux shielding problems using the discrete ordinates transport code Attila. High-order Legendre expansions (P-39) are required to accurately describe the highly anisotropic scattering. Attila applies the extended transport correction allowing accurate three-dimensional solutions at much lower degrees. Particle flux solutions for orbiting spacecraft shielding problems obtained with Attila and MCNPX compare favorably. Coupled multigroup proton/neutron cross-section libraries, for use with deterministic transport codes, can be prepared using NJOY99 and MCNPX. Our results using the Attila code demonstrate that multigroup deterministic methods are computationally efficient alternatives to Monte Carlo simulation.

DE Monte Carlo; slowing down; thermal scattering
AB The results produced by a variety of currently available pointwise Monte Carlo neutron transport codes for the relatively simple problem of modeling a fast source of neutrons slowing down and thermalizing in water are compared. Initial comparisons showed rather large differences in the calculated flux: up to 80% differences. By working together to improve the results, iterations were done by (a) ensuring that all codes were using the same data, (b) improving the models used by the codes, and (c) correcting errors in the codes-no code is perfect. Even after a number of iterations, we still found differences, demonstrating that our Monte Carlo and supporting codes are far from perfect. In particular, we found that the often overlooked nuclear data-processing codes can be the weakest link in our systems of codes. The results presented here represent today's state of the art in the sense that all of the Monte Carlo codes are modern, widely available, and used codes. They all can use the most up-to-date nuclear data, and the results are recent; these are the results that current users of these codes should expect to obtain from them. As such, the accuracy and limitations of the codes presented here should serve as guidelines to code users in interpreting their results for similar problems. Results for the improved thermal scattering model now available, using advanced versions of NJOY-99.259, TRIPOLI-4.5, and MCNPX-2.6.f Beta, are presented. For comparisons among experimentally measured water cross sections and the unique JEFF-3.1 and ENDF/B-VII thermal scattering law, S(alpha, beta) data are exemplified.

DE neutron source; anisotropy; dose equivalent
AB A new Cf-252 source has been procured for use at the Dosimetry Applications and Research facility at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). This source was encapsulated by the Californium Facility at ORNL; however, the encapsulation differs from previous designs designated as SR-Cf-100. The new encapsulation, designated SR-Cf-3000, has a similar cylindrical radius to the previous generation but is 1.6 cm longer. Since the encapsulation geometries differ, the amount of internal scattering of neutrons will also differ, leading to changes in anisotropy factors between the two designs. Additionally, the different encapsulations will affect the absorbed dose and dose equivalent delivered per neutron emitted by the source since both the quantity and energy distribution of the emitted neutrons will vary with irradiation angle. This work presents the fluence anisotropy factors for the SR-Cf-3000 series encapsulation as well as absorbed dose and dose equivalent values calculated for various angles of irradiation. The fluence anisotropy factors were found to range from a maximum of 1.037 to a minimum of 0.641 for irradiation angles perpendicular and parallel to the source axis, respectively. Anisotropy in absorbed dose varied from a maximum of 1.033 to a minimum of 0.676 while anisotropy of dose equivalent varied from 1.035 to 0.657. Anisotropy in the region most commonly used was found to be +3.2% for absorbed dose and +3.3% for dose equivalent, and these effects should be included when performing dosimeter irradiations.

DE National Ignition Facility; inertial confinement fusion; X-ray hazard
AB Prompt doses from X-rays generated as result of laser beam interaction with target material are calculated at different locations inside the National Ignition Facility. The maximum dose outside a target chamber diagnostic port is similar to 10 mSv for a shot utilizing the 192 laser beams and 1.8 MJ of laser energy. The dose during a single bundle shot (eight laser beams) drops to similar to 0.4 mSv. Doses calculated outside the target bay (TB) doors and inside the switchyards (SYs) [except for the 5.33-m (17-ft 6-in.) floor level] range from a few microsieverts to similar to 110 mu Sv for 192 beams and scale down proportionally with a smaller number of beams. At the 5.33-m (17-ft 6-in.) floor level, two diagnostic ports are directly facing two of the TB doors, and the maximum doses outside the doors are 0.5 and 0.16 mSv, respectively. Shielding each of the two TB doors with 6.35-mm-thick Pb (1/4-in.) reduces the dose by a factor of 50. One or two bundle shots (8 to 16 laser beams) present a small hazard to personnel in the SYs.

AB Experimental studies of shielding and radiation effects are carried out at Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (FNAL) under collaboration between FNAL and Japan, aiming at benchmarking simulation codes and studying irradiation effects for the upgrade and design of new high-energy accelerator facilities. The purposes of this collaboration are (a) acquisition of shielding data in a proton beam energy region above 100 GeV, (b) further evaluation of predictive accuracy of the PHITS and MARS codes, (c) modification of physics models and data in these codes if needed, (d) characterization of radiation fields for studies of radiation effects, and (e) development of a code module for an improved description of radiation effects.
The first campaign of the experiment was carried out at the Pbar target station and NuMI experimental station at FNAL, which use irradiation of targets with 120-GeV protons for antiproton and neutrino production, respectively. The generated secondary particles passing through steel, concrete, and rock were measured by activation methods as well as by other detectors such as a scintillator with a veto counter, phoswich detector, and a Bonner ball counter on trial. Preliminary experimental and calculated results are presented.

AB The Materials Test Station (MTS) is a project by the Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative to build a facility that allows for irradiating nuclear fuel and material samples to acquire the necessary knowledge to close the nuclear fuel cycle and thereby reduce the amount and the toxicity of the nuclear waste. This facility is proposed to be located in Area A of the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center at the Los Alamos National Laboratory. The MTS is proposed to be a spallation target facility operated up to 2 MW (2.5 mA at 800 MeV). To safely operate a facility of this size, a large amount of shielding needs to be put into place. In this paper we will discuss the shielding design proposed for the MTS.

AB The Materials Test Station (MTS) is a project funded by the Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative with the goal to build a facility that allows large-scale irradiation for potential future nuclear fuel and material samples to obtain the knowledge and understanding of the nuclear processes necessary to close the nuclear fuel cycle and thereby reduce the amount and the toxicity of the nuclear waste. The MTS is proposed to be built in Area A of the Los Alamos Neutron Science Center and operated at up to 2 MW (2.5 mA at 800 MeV). As part of this operation, a so-called camera room will need to be installed upstream of the target cell. Because of the uniqueness of this functionality, the camera room requires a special shielding design, which will be discussed in this paper.

AB For environmental reasons, it was proposed to remove the lead shielding in the front panel of a glove box and replace it with another material. This technical note shows that steel could be used. Also, the thickness of steel required to maintain acceptable doses to an operator is determined. Computer modeling and analysis show that 3.175 cm (1 1/4 in.) of steel is required to maintain the same dose to the operator from gamma radiation as 0.635 cm (1/4 in.) of lead. However, it was demonstrated that source placement and geometry play a large role in the operator's dose independent of the structural material because of streaming through ports and windows. Because of streaming, the dose received through the metal in the front panel was not the dominant source of radiation to the operator. It was found that 1.5875 cm (5/8 in.) of steel could be used in the panel.

ID PENCIL BEAM INTERFEROMETER; LONG TRACE PROFILER; RADIATION
AB We present a dynamic monitoring method and monitoring system of grating angle, referred to as the Precise Angle Monitor (PAM), at U4B, a soft x-ray spherical grating monochromator (SGM) beam line at the National Synchrotron Light Source (NSLS). In an SGM, a photon energy scan is accomplished by rotating the grating angle precisely. After several decades of service, the monochromator at U4B developed instabilities that severely impacted the experimental program. Over several hours, either the spectral shape experienced distortions or the spectral peak shifted. In order to directly monitor the grating motion during scans, the optical head of a portable long trace profiler (PTLTP) was installed on U4B as the PAM. We find that the grating rotational motion is not ideal: (1) the scan steps are not smooth and there are high-frequency step angle errors; (2) there is also a low-frequency angle error; and (3) an unstable thermal expansion produces extra rotational error. Measurements of dynamic monitoring are presented, including grating rotation repeatability and thermal instability. The results illustrate the utility of dynamic monitoring of monochromator motion during actual operation. (C) 2009 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers. [DOI: 10.1117/1.3265548]

ID JOINT TRANSFORM CORRELATION; CLASSIFICATION; SYSTEM
AB We present the use of phase-only filter-based correlation for fingerprint pattern identification. The main advantage of this approach is that it is distortion tolerant and can be realized in optical or electronic parallel hardware. Given that real-world fingerprints are almost never perfect, distortion tolerance can prove to be very important for this application. Our results indicate that the algorithm can identify prints with 58% of the data missing on average. With large fingerprint databases, identification can be a computationally challenging task. The high parallelism in the phase-only correlation filter makes it ideally suited to field programmable gate array (FPGA)-based hardware acceleration. We examine the FPGA-based acceleration of the fingerprint algorithm. On a Xilinx Virtex II Pro FPGA, we achieve speedups of about 47 times over an optimized C implementation of the algorithm on a 2.2-GHz AMD Opteron processor. Our FPGA implementation is optimized to allow efficient processing of large databases. (C) 2009 Society of Photo-Optical Instrumentation Engineers. [DOI: 10.1117/1.3265549]

AB We have used X-ray absorption (XA) and resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopies to study a series of copper compounds, namely Cu2O, CuO, Cu(OH)(2), CuCl2, Cu2S, CuSO4, malachite (Cu-2(CO3)(2)(OH)(2)) and atacamite (CuCl2 center dot 3Cu(OH)(2)). Cu 2p XA spectra provide information about oxidation states. Divalent copper gives a single narrow line due to excitations into the empty 3d state, whereas monovalent copper gives a broad band at higher energy due to transitions to 4s states. Chemical shifts of the main line in the Cu2+ XA spectra of different compounds are observed but in some cases they are too small to make a clear distinction between the species. It is shown that RIXS at the Cu 2p edge has a great potential to distinguish between the species due to large differences in spectral shapes for the same energy of the incident photon beam. First evidence for the possibility of detecting chemical composition of copper compounds is presented and discussed in details. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Microstructural disorder, such as antiphase boundaries that give rise to Ti network disorder, reduces the critical temperature, and Ti network disorder combined with Mg interdiffusion lead to a much more dramatic effect on the superconducting state. Surface sensitive X-ray absorption spectroscopy has identified Ti to retain site symmetry and average valence of the bulk material regardless of film thickness. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

TI Over voltage in the multi-sectioned superconducting solenoid during

DE Superconducting magnets; Over voltage; Quench simulation; Quench
protection
AB Accurate analysis of over voltage in the superconducting solenoid during a quench is one of the basis for quench protection system design. Classical quench simulation methods can only give rough estimation of the over voltage within a magnet coil. In this paper, for multi-sectioned superconducting solenoid, based on the classical assumption of ellipsoidal normal zone, three-dimension temperature results are mapped to one-dimension along the wire, the temperature distribution along the wire and the resistances of each turn are obtained. The coil is treated as circuit comprised of turn resistances, turn self and mutual inductances. The turn resistive voltage, turn inductive voltage, and turn resultant voltage along the wire are calculated. As a result, the maximum internal voltages, the layer-to-layer voltages and the turn-to-turn voltages are better estimated. Utilizing this method, the over voltage in a small solenoid and a large solenoid during quenching have been studied. The result shows that this method can well improve the over voltage estimate, especially when the coil is larger. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Nanocrystalline hydroxyapatite, Ca-10(PO4)(6)(OH)(2) (HAp) is synthesized from hydroxide gels at room temperature using sonochemical technique. The as-synthesized material is characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), and solid-state (H-1 and P-31) NMR techniques. Hexagonal structure with space group P6(3)/m is evident from powder XRD. Microscopic analysis with SAED indicates the nanocrystalline nature of the compound. Average particle size of 30 nm with excellent phase purity in good stoichiometric ratios of HAp is observed. The prevalence of protons as hydroxyls in apatitic structure of HAp is evident from FTIR and solid-state NMR. The microstructure and proton conducting properties of the synthesized material are compared with the natural human bone powder having similar constituents. The sonochemically prepared HAp, and HAp-Nafion (R) composite exhibited excellent AC conductivities similar to 10(-5) S cm(-1) at 650 degrees C and similar to 10(-5) S cm(-1) at 160 degrees C, respectively, may find application as an electrolyte for low temperature solid oxide fuel cells (LT-SOFCs) and high temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cells (HT-PEFCs) applications.

AB The creation and detection of atomic polarization is examined theoretically through the study of basic optical-pumping mechanisms and absorption and fluorescence measurements and the dependence of these processes on the size of ground- and excited-state hyperfine splittings is determined. The consequences of this dependence are studied in more detail for the case of nonlinear magneto-optical rotation in the Faraday geometry (an effect requiring the creation and detection of rank-two polarization in the ground state) with alkali-metal atoms. Analytic formulas for the optical rotation signal under various experimental conditions are presented.

AB A fully relativistic time-dependent close-coupling method is developed based on Dirac's covariant formulation of quantum mechanics. The expansion of a one-electron wave function in spin-orbit eigenfunctions yields the well-known coupled Dirac equations in two radial wave functions, while the expansion of a two-electron wave function in coupled spin-orbit eigenfunctions yields close-coupled Dirac equations in four radial wave functions. The time-dependent Dirac equations are solved directly using numerical methods that avoid the Fermi doubling pathology. Test calculations are carried out using the one-electron coupled equations for j=1/2 elastic potential scattering from Ne9+ at 2.00 keV and using the two-electron close-coupled equations for J=0,1 ionization of Ne9+ at 4.15 keV.

AB A high-resolution flat-crystal spectrometer was used on the SuperEBIT electron beam ion trap to measure the energies of the 2s(1/2)-2p(3/2) transitions in lithiumlike through fluorinelike tungsten. These transitions are strongly affected by energy shifts due to quantum electrodynamics (QED). SuperEBIT was run at an electron energy of 103.2 +/- 0.5 keV and an electron beam current of 150 mA to generate the respective charge states; hydrogenlike aluminum and neonlike krypton were used as calibration elements. The spectra were analyzed with and the results compared to calculations based on the flexible atomic code. Good agreement was found. The measurements yielded line positions with a precision of 1-2 eV, which test QED calculations to 5%-10%.

AB The lifetime of the 7s6d D-1(2) state of atomic radium is determined to be 385(45) mu s using cold Ra-226 atoms prepared in a magneto-optical trap. The D-1(2) state is populated from the decay of the P-1(1) state which is excited by a pulse of 483 nm light. The decay of the D-1(2) state is observed by detecting delayed fluorescence at 714 nm from the last step in the decay sequence P-1(1)-D-1(2)-P-3(1)-S-1(0). The measured lifetime is compared to a number of theoretical calculations. An improved value of the 7s7p P-1(1) level of 20 715.598(6) cm(-1) is obtained.

AB Two-photon above-threshold ionization processes in the x-ray regime are studied using atomic hydrogen as a model system. Within the minimal-coupling formalism of nonrelativistic quantum electrodynamics, two distinct interactions-A center dot p in second order and A(2) in first order-contribute to the two-photon absorption amplitude. The relative importance of these two interactions is assessed. It is found that above a photon energy of 6.8 keV, the contribution from A(2) to the total two-photon absorption cross section dominates. In this high-energy regime, above-threshold ionization is a nonsequential purely nondipole process. Rate equations are employed to calculate the probabilities of ionization by Compton scattering, one-photon absorption, and two-photon absorption.

AB The F-19 spins in a crystal of fluorapatite have often been used to experimentally approximate a one-dimensional spin system. Under suitable multipulse control, the nuclear-spin dynamics may be modeled to first approximation by a double-quantum one-dimensional Hamiltonian, which is analytically solvable for nearest-neighbor couplings. Here, we use solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance techniques to investigate the multiple quantum coherence dynamics of fluorapatite, with an emphasis on understanding the region of validity for such a simplified picture. Using experimental, numerical, and analytical methods, we explore the effects of long-range intrachain couplings, cross-chain couplings, as well as couplings to a spin environment, all of which tend to damp the oscillations of the multiple quantum coherence signal at sufficiently long times. Our analysis characterizes the extent to which fluorapatite can faithfully simulate a one-dimensional quantum wire.

ID SUPERCONDUCTIVITY; SYSTEMS
AB The detailed optical properties of BaFe2As2 have been determined over a wide frequency range above and below the structural and magnetic transition at T-N similar or equal to 138 K. A prominent in-plane infrared-active mode is observed at 253 cm(-1) (31.4 meV) at 295 K. The frequency of this vibration shifts discontinuously at T-N; for T < T-N the frequency of this mode displays almost no temperature dependence, yet it nearly doubles in intensity. This anomalous behavior appears to be a consequence of orbital ordering in the Fe-As layers.

AB Carbon is an attractive material for hydrogen adsorption due to its light weight, variety of structures, and ability to both physisorb and chemisorb hydrogen. Recently, fully hydrogenated graphene layers ("graphane") have been predicted to exist [J. O. Sofo , Phys. Rev. B 75, 15340 (2007)], and experimentally observed [D. C. Elias , Science 323, 610 (2009)]. In this work, we examine analogs of graphane, in particular BNH2 and BC2NH4. Unlike graphene, these materials have a band gap without hydrogenation. Our results indicate that the hydrogenation product of BN is metastable: the fully hydrogenated compound BNH2 is higher in energy than hexagonal BN sheets plus H-2 molecules, in sharp contrast with graphane. We find that BC2NH4 is energetically very close to hexagonal BC2N+2H(2) molecules. Furthermore, our examination of the relative binding strengths of rows of symmetry related hydrogen atoms on BC2NH4 shows that this compound is marginally higher in energy than BC2NH2 plus an H-2 molecule, with the hydrogen atoms in BC2NH2 absorbed on the carbon sites. These remaining hydrogen atoms are not as strongly bound as in graphane, indicating that the average hydrogen chemisorption energy is controllable by changing the carbon content in the B-C-N layer.

AB We derive the exact ground states for a one-dimensional family of S=1/2 XXZ Hamiltonians on the zigzag ladder. These states exhibit true long-range spiral order that spontaneously breaks the U(1) invariance of the Hamiltonian. Besides breaking a continuous symmetry in d=1, this spiral ordering has a ferromagnetic component along the symmetry axis that can take any value between zero and full saturation. In this sense, our canted spiral solutions are a generalization of the SU(2) Heisenberg ferromagnet to nonzero ordering wave vectors of the transverse spin components. We extend this result to the d=2 anisotropic triangular lattice.

TI Transport in a Luttinger liquid with dissipation: Two impurities

DT Article
DE electrical conductivity; impurities; Luttinger liquid
ID DIMENSIONAL ELECTRON-GAS; QUANTUM
AB We consider theoretically the transport in a one-channel spinless Luttinger liquid with two strong impurities in the presence of dissipation. As a difference with respect to the dissipation free case, where the two impurities fully transmit electrons at resonance points, the dissipation prevents complete transmission in the present situation. A rich crossover diagram for the conductance as a function of applied voltage, temperature, dissipation strength, Luttinger liquid parameter K, and the deviation from the resonance condition is obtained. For weak dissipation and 1/2 < K < 1, the conduction shows a nonmonotonic increase as a function of temperature or voltage. For strong dissipation the conduction increases monotonically but is exponentially small.

AB Magnetic and crystallographic properties of Gd5Sb0.5Ge3.5 were investigated using dc magnetization, ac magnetic susceptibility, and heat capacity of an oriented single crystal, combined with temperature and magnetic field dependent x-ray powder diffraction. The compound undergoes an unusual magnetostructural transition at 40 K and a nonmagnetic second-order transition around 63 K. The detailed crystallographic study of Gd5Sb0.5Ge3.5 shows that contrary to the R-5(SixGe1-x)(4) systems (R is a rare-earth metal), the structural transition occurs without shear displacements of the (2)(infinity)[R5T4] slabs (T=Si, Ge, and Sb), and a substantial volume change (-0.5%) does not lead to a change in crystallographic symmetry. The first-principles electronic structure calculations show higher interslab than intraslab ferromagnetic exchange interaction indicating that Sm5Ge4 type of structure supports a ferromagnetic ground state in Gd5Sb0.5Ge3.5.

Using critical-state theory, I use several methods to determine the functional dependence of the ac transport-current losses upon F=I/I(c), where I is the peak alternating current and I(c) is the critical current, and I discuss how this dependence can be affected by the cross-sectional shape, aspect ratio, and a flux-density-dependent critical current density J(c)(B).

AB The phonon density of states (DOS) of La3-xTe4 compounds (x=0.0,0.18,0.32) was measured at 300, 520, and 780 K, using inelastic neutron scattering. A significant stiffening of the phonon DOS and a large broadening of features were observed upon introduction of vacancies on La sites (increasing x). Heat-capacity measurements were performed at temperatures 1.85 < T < 1200 K and were analyzed to quantify the contributions of phonons and electrons. The Debye temperature and the electronic coefficient of heat capacity determined from these measurements are consistent with the neutron-scattering results, and with previously reported first-principles calculations. Our results indicate that La vacancies in La3-xTe4 strongly scatter phonons and this source of scattering appears to be independent of temperature. The stiffening of the phonon DOS induced by the introduction of vacancies is explained in terms of the electronic structure and the change in bonding character. The temperature dependence of the phonon DOS is captured satisfactorily by the quasiharmonic approximation.

AB Forming a chemically stable low-resistance back contact for CdTe thin-film solar cells is critically important to the cell performance. This paper reports theoretical study of the effects of the back-contact material, Sb(2)Te(3), on the performance of the CdTe solar cells. First-principles calculations show that Sb impurities in p-type CdTe are donors and can diffuse with low diffusion barrier. There properties are clearly detrimental to the solar-cell performance. The Sb segregation into the grain boundaries may be required to explain the good efficiencies for the CdTe solar cells with Sb(2)Te(3) back contacts.

AB We report ambient-pressure magnetization, heat capacity, and thermal-expansion measurements of the ferromagnetic superconductor UGe2 in high magnetic fields. An analysis of the magnetic heat capacity derived from both magnetization and specific-heat data shows that UGe2 is well described in the framework of the molecular-field theory. Our heat-capacity and thermal-expansion results reveal a clear crossover regime, a feature that illustrates the proximity to the quantum critical end point of a first-order boundary between two different ferromagnetic phases. Furthermore, we show that the ferromagnetic contribution to these thermodynamic quantities can be split into two terms with distinct Gruumlneisen parameters.

AB Recent measurements on extremely underdoped YBa2Cu3O6+y [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 237003 (2007)] have allowed the critical temperature T-c, superfluid density rho(s0)equivalent to rho(s)(T < T-c), and dc conductivity sigma(dc)(T greater than or similar to T-c) to be determined for a series of electronic dopings for T-c similar or equal to 3-17 K. The general scaling relation rho(s0)/8 similar or equal to 4.4 sigma T-dc(c) is observed, extending the validity of both the ab-plane and c-axis scaling an order of magnitude and creating a region of overlap. This suggests that strongly underdoped materials may constitute a Josephson phase; as the electronic doping is increased a more uniform superconducting state emerges.

TI Phonon localization and thermal rectification in asymmetric harmonic
chains using a nonequilibrium Green's function formalism
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID SIMULATION; TRANSPORT
AB Thermal transport across one-dimensional atomic chains is studied using a harmonic nonequilibrium Green's function formalism in the ballistic phonon transport regime. Introducing a mass impurity in the chain and mass loading in the thermal contacts leads to interference of phonon waves, which can be manipulated by varying the magnitude of the loading. This shows that thermal rectification is tunable in a completely harmonic system.

ID GENERALIZED GRADIENT APPROXIMATION; STABILITY; SOLIDS; BORON
AB We perform first-principles density-functional calculations to identify the possible crystal structure of a superhard diamondlike BC5 phase, which was recently synthesized under high-pressure and high-temperature conditions. Interestingly, we find only a small total-energy difference between the energetically most favorable ordered configuration and the fully disordered state of BC5 modeled using a 54-atom special quasirandom structure, indicating a weak ordering tendency. It is thus likely that the BC5 phase synthesized under experimental conditions is disordered in nature. Such a conclusion is further corroborated by the fact that the disordered BC5 structure displays volume-per-atom, bulk modulus and its pressure derivative, and simulated x-ray diffraction spectrum in good agreements with experiments.

AB Using scanning tunneling microscopy and Ginzburg-Landau simulations, we explore vortex configurations in magnetically coupled NbSe2/permalloy superconductor/ferromagnet bilayer. The permalloy film with stripe domain structure induces periodic local magnetic induction in the superconductor, creating a series of pinning-antipinning channels for externally added magnetic flux quanta. Such laterally confined Abrikosov vortices form quasi-one-dimensional arrays (chains). The transitions between multichain states occur through propagation of kinks at the intermediate fields. At high fields we show that the system becomes nonlinear due to a change in both the number of vortices and the confining potential. The longitudinal instabilities of the resulting vortex structures lead to vortices "levitating" in the antipinning channels.

AB The microscopic origin of the Landeacute g-factor in two ferromagnetic/nonmagnetic (FM/NM) bilayer systems-Co/Cu and Ni/Pd-has been investigated using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism, resonant magnetic reflectivity, and band calculations. The FM/NM bilayer represents the building block of any complete spin-transfer structure (FM1/NM/FM2). The valence electronic structure is profoundly altered over a finite length across the FM/NM interface. A considerable charge transfer takes place from the NM to the FM material. This results in an enhancement of the orbital-to-spin magnetic moment ratio in the FM layer and an induced magnetic polarization in the NM layer. Both effects turn out to be crucial for a correct understanding of the g-factor in spin-transfer systems.

AB Realistic three-dimensional atomistic structures of ZrxCu100-x (x=35,50) bulk metallic glasses are constructed using a combination of x-ray diffraction experiment and computational modeling. A cluster correlation method is developed to analyze the medium-range order in amorphous systems. We show that the glass systems consist of a stringlike backbone network formed by icosahedral clusters and a liquidlike structure filling in the remaining space. These findings are consistent with those obtained from our independent classical molecular-dynamics studies with embedded-atom method potential for ZrCu system. Such a heterogeneous structure provides a fundamental structural perspective of dynamical heterogeneity and glass formation.

AB Co islands and films are characterized by x-ray magnetic circular dichroism photoemission electron microscopy. The spatial resolution capabilities of the technique together with atomic growth control permit obtaining perfectly flat triangular islands with a given thickness (3 ML), very close to an abrupt spin-reorientation transition. The magnetic domain configurations are found to depend on island size: while small islands can be magnetized in a single-domain state, larger islands show more complex patterns. Furthermore, the magnetization pattern of the larger islands presents a common chirality. By means of dichroic spectromicroscopy at the Co L absorption edges, an experimental estimate of the ratio of the spin and orbital magnetic moment for three monolayer thick films is obtained.

TI Internal electronic structure and fine structure of multiexcitons in

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B

ID EXCITONIC ARTIFICIAL ATOMS; NANOSTRUCTURES; ENERGY
AB We perform a detailed theoretical study of the characteristic internal electronic structure of various multiexcitons (N(h),N(e)), where N(h) is number of holes and N(e) is the number of electrons in the self-assembled semiconductor quantum dots (QDs). For each of the leading (N(h),N(e)) excitonic complexes we start from the single-particle configuration (e.g., a specific occupation pattern of S and P electron and hole levels by a few carriers) and then show the many-particle multiplet levels for the initial state of emission (N(h),N(e)) and the final state of emission (N(h)-1, N(e)-1). We denote which states are dark and which are bright; the order and multiplicity, the leading single-particle character of each multiplet state, and the fine-structure splittings. These are of general utility. We also show explicit numerical values for distances between various transitions for four specific QDs. Here the presented information is important and potentially useful for a few reasons: (i) the information serves as a guide for spectroscopic interpretation; (ii) the information reveals non-Aufbau cases, where the dot does not have Aufbau occupation of carriers' levels; (iii) the information shows which transitions are sensitive to random-alloy fluctuations (if the dot is alloyed) and importance of this effect. We show that because of such alloy information, distances between peaks cannot be used to gauge structural information.

ID MEAN-FIELD THEORY; FERMION SYSTEMS
AB This paper presents an efficient algorithm for computing the transition probability in auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo simulations of strongly correlated electron systems using a Hubbard model. This algorithm is based on a low rank updating of the underlying linear algebra problem, and results in significant computational savings. The computational complexity of computing the transition probability and Green's function update reduces to O(k(2)) during the kth step, where k is the number of accepted spin flips, and results in an algorithm that is faster than the competing delayed update algorithm. Moreover, this algorithm is orders of magnitude faster than traditional algorithms that use naive updating of the Green's function matrix.

AB A thorough investigation of the surface electronic structure of ferromagnetic Fe(100) films, epitaxially grown on single-crystal W(100), has been conducted using spin- and angle-resolved photoemission combined with state-of-the-art density-functional theory slab computations. The dispersion of the surface emission close to the Fermi level has been assessed quantitatively. The experimental results are in a good agreement with the calculations and, in particular, the presence of a minority surface state with d(xz+yz) character along the Gamma X high-symmetry direction is unambiguously established. Additionally, the calculations predict the existence of a different unoccupied surface state localized at Gamma. The existence of the related minority interface resonance near the Fermi edge and outside of the surface-Brillouin-zone center Gamma is believed to control the tunneling magnetoresistance in Fe/MgO/Fe(001) for very thin MgO spacers thus our results serve as indirect confirmation to these predictions.

AB Critical current density was studied in single crystals of Ba(Fe1-xCox)(2)As-2 for the values of x spanning the entire doping phase diagram. A noticeable enhancement was found for slightly underdoped crystals with the peak at x=0.058. Using a combination of polarized-light imaging, x-ray diffraction and magnetic measurements we associate this behavior with the intrinsic pinning on structural domains in the orthorhombic phase. Domain walls extend throughout the sample thickness in the direction of vortices and act as extended pinning centers. With the increasing x domain structure becomes more intertwined and fine due to a decrease in the orthorhombic distortion. This results in the energy landscape with mazelike spatial modulations favorable for pinning. This finding shows that iron-based pnictide superconductors, characterized by high values of the transition temperature, high upper critical fields, and low anisotropy may intrinsically have relatively high critical current densities.

AB The electronic structure and energetics of the tetragonal distortion for the fluorite-type dihydrides TiH2, ZrH2, and HfH2 are studied by means of highly accurate first-principles total-energy calculations. For HfH2, in addition to the calculations using the scalar relativistic (SR) approximation, calculations including the spin-orbit coupling have also been performed. The results show that TiH2, ZrH2, and HfH2 in the cubic phase are unstable against tetragonal strain. For the three systems, the total energy shows two minima as a function of the c/a ratio with the lowest-energy minimum at c/a < 1 in agreement with the experimental observations. The band structure of TiH2, ZrH2, and HfH2 (SR) around the Fermi level shows two common features along the two major symmetry directions of the Brillouin zone, Gamma-L and Gamma-K, a nearly flat doubly degenerate band, and a van Hove singularity, respectively. In cubic HfH2 the spin-orbit coupling lifts the degeneracy of the partially filled bands in the Gamma-L path, while the van Hove singularity in the Gamma-K path remains unchanged. The density of states of the three systems in the cubic phase shows a sharp peak at the Fermi level. We found that the tetragonal distortion produces a strong reduction in the density of states at the Fermi level resulting mainly from the splitting of the doubly-degenerate bands in the Gamma-L direction and the shift of the van Hove singularity to above the Fermi level. The validity of the Jahn-Teller model in explaining the tetragonal distortion in this group of dihydrides is discussed.

AB Laser-based photoemission with photons of energy 6 eV is used to examine the fine details of the very low-energy electron dispersion and associated dynamics in the nodal region of optimally doped Bi2212. A "kink" in the dispersion in the immediate vicinity of the Fermi energy is associated with scattering from an optical phonon previously identified in Raman studies. The identification of this phonon as the appropriate mode is confirmed by comparing the scattering rates observed experimentally with the results of calculated scattering rates based on the properties of the phonon mode.

We show that for dots with permanent and random magnetization normal or parallel to the film surface, our system is an experimental realization of the two-dimensional XY model with random phase shifts. The low-temperature superconducting phase, that exists without magnetic dots, survives in the presence of magnetic dots for sufficiently small disorder.

ID FERMI-LIQUID BEHAVIOR
AB The observed 97.7% optical transparency of graphene has been linked to the value 1/137 of the fine structure constant, by using results for noninteracting Dirac fermions. The agreement in three significant figures requires an explanation for the apparent unimportance of the Coulomb interaction. Using arguments based on Ward identities, the leading corrections to the optical conductivity due to the Coulomb interactions are correctly computed (resolving a theoretical dispute) and shown to amount to only 1%-2%, corresponding to 0.03%-0.04% in the transparency.

AB A combination of atomistic simulation techniques has been employed to predict ordered structures for a series of A(4)B(3)O(12) delta-phase compounds, where A is a 3+ cation ranging in size from Sc3+ to Ho3+ and B is a 4+ cation ranging from Ti4+ to Zr4+. Experimentally, a fully ordered cation structure has yet to be resolved for any of these compounds. Monte Carlo energy-minimization calculations using short-range pair potentials identified three low-energy arrangements of A(3+) and B4+ cations. The details of these three structures were analyzed with the layer motif method. To quantitatively determine the delta-phase structure of each composition, the three configurations were reevaluated with density-functional theory. We also used special quasirandom structures to compare the ordered low-energy configurations to cation disorder. For all compositions considered, we find that at least one of the three ordered structures is lower in energy than the disordered structure, suggesting the thermodynamic stability of an ordered phase. Of the three ordered structures identified by this approach, one has not been identified previously in the literature for any composition. In addition, we discuss the stability of delta-phase compounds with respect to other "ABO(4-x)" fluorite-derivative compositions and predict the structure of compositions for which none has been reported.

AB Soft x-ray magnetic dichroism, magnetization, and magnetotransport measurements demonstrate that the competition between different magnetic interactions (exchange coupling, electronic reconstruction, and long-range interactions) in La(0.7)Sr(0.3)FeO(3)(LSFO)/La(0.7)Sr(0.3)MnO(3)(LSMO) perovskite oxide superlattices leads to unexpected functional properties. The antiferromagnetic order parameter in LSFO and ferromagnetic order parameter in LSMO show a dissimilar dependence on sublayer thickness and temperature, illustrating the high degree of tunability in these artificially layered materials.

AB The description of an impurity atom in a Bose-Einstein condensate can be cast in the form of Froumlhlich's polaron Hamiltonian, where the Bogoliubov excitations play the role of the phonons. An expression for the corresponding polaronic coupling strength is derived, relating the coupling strength to the scattering lengths, the trap size and the number of Bose condensed atoms. This allows to identify several approaches to reach the strong-coupling limit for the quantum gas polarons, whereas this limit was hitherto experimentally inaccessible in solids. We apply Feynman's path-integral method to calculate for all coupling strengths the polaronic shift in the free energy and the increase in the effective mass. The effect of temperature on these quantities is included in the description. We find similarities to the acoustic polaron results and indications of a transition between free polarons and self-trapped polarons. The prospects, based on the current theory, of investigating the polaron physics with ultracold gases are discussed for lithium atoms in a sodium condensate.

We observe large changes in the structure factor and a dramatic increase in the oxygen coordination number over a 2 GPa pressure range. A P-T diagram of the nearest-neighbor oxygen coordination number, n(OO), is disclosed. Also, a counterintuitive isotopic shift of the variation of n(OO) with pressure is observed.

AB Beyond chemical information, the fine structure of an absorption edge gives bonding and electronic information. We provide a synthesis of fine structure and dynamical scattering theory, allowing the exploration of the effects of dynamical scattering on the measured fine structure. We discuss the effects of experimental geometry in the context of site-specific near-edge spectroscopy of NiAl2O4 and find that large detectors serve to localize the inelastic signal and may be preferable to the small off-axis detectors currently used. We then explore the possibility of measuring changes in fine structure within a unit cell using scanning transmission electron microscopy. We demonstrate that, in principle, it is possible to measure a subtle change in the fine structure of the O K edge in SrTiO3 as the probe is scanned across the unit cell. We explore the best experimental conditions to achieve this and find that large probe-forming and detector apertures help to localize the signal to the atomic sites.

TI Effect of inserting Ni and Co layers on the quantum well states of a

AB The effect of Ni and Co inserting layers on the quantum well (QW) states of a Cu film grown on Co/Cu(001) is systematically investigated using angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. For electron energy E-E-F < -0.5 eV, we find that both Ni and Co inserting layers behave similarly to serve as a potential-energy barrier to divide the Cu film into two Cu QWs. For energy near the Fermi energy, the Ni and Co inserting layers have different effects on the Cu QW states while the Co thin layer still perturbs the Cu QW states, the Ni inserting layer behaves as if it were a Cu layer, especially at the Fermi energy, even up to 10 ML thickness. Such different effects of the Ni and Co inserting layers are attributed to their different electronic band matching with the Cu energy band. The first-principles calculation confirms that the electron reflectivity near the Fermi level is indeed very different at the Cu/Ni and Cu/Co interfaces, supporting the experimental results.

AB While the first comparison of shallow bound exciton photoluminescence between natural Si and highly enriched Si-28 dramatically demonstrated the importance of inhomogeneous isotope broadening, the transitions in Si-28 were in fact too narrow to be resolved with the then available instrumental resolution of 0.014 cm(-1). We report results for the boron bound exciton transition in highly enriched Si-28 using a novel apparatus for photoluminescence excitation spectroscopy based on a tuneable single-frequency laser source with sub-MHz resolution. Twenty well-resolved doublets, exhibiting a B-10-B-11 isotope splitting, are observed in the new spectra for Si-28 with isotopic enrichment >99.99%. Linewidths as narrow as 0.0012 cm(-1) (150 neV) full width at half maximum are observed for the most highly enriched sample.

AB Through a systematic high-resolution angle-resolved photoemission study of the iron pnictide compounds (Ba,Sr)Fe2As2, we show that the electronic structures of these compounds are significantly reconstructed across the spin density wave transition, which cannot be described by a simple folding scenario of conventional density wave ordering. Moreover, we find that LDA calculations with an incorporated suppressed magnetic moment of 0.5 mu(B) can match well the details in the reconstructed electronic structure, suggesting that the nature of magnetism in the pnictides is more itinerant than local, while the origin of suppressed magnetic moment remains an important issue for future investigations.

AB We present an approximative simulation method for quantum many-body systems based on coarse graining the space of the momentum transferred between interacting particles, which leads to effective Hamiltonians of reduced size with the flavor-twisted boundary condition. A rapid, accurate, and fast convergent computation of the ground-state energy is demonstrated on the spin-1/2 quantum antiferromagnet of any dimension by employing only two sites. The method is expected to be useful for future simulations and quick estimates on other strongly correlated systems.

Of particular interest are the hybridized plasmonic systems, in which the interaction among the plasmonic elements can be utilized to tailor the optical responses. Here we demonstrate a hybridized plasmonic-waveguide system exhibiting behavior similar to that of the electromagnetically induced transparency; namely, an ultranarrow transmission line width arising from a coupling-induced cancellation of the plasmonic resonance.

AB ScPO4 and YPO4 with the tetragonal zircon-structure were studied at room temperature and pressures up to similar to 50 GPa. Pressure-induced phase transitions to the sheelite structure occur at 30 GPa for ScPO4 and 16.3 GPa for YPO4, respectively. In addition to the scheelite-type high-pressure phase, an intermediate phase with the monoclinic monazite-type structure formed during the phase transition process of YPO4. The high-pressure phases of ScPO4 and YPO4 are not quenchable on pressure release. The pressure dependence of the total energy of the different phases was calculated using density-functional method, and the results confirm the experimentally observed phase relations under pressure. Structural parameters and compressibility of each phase were determined by refinement of the x-ray diffraction patterns. The high-pressure phase of ScPO4 has a very large bulk modulus [376(8) GPa].

AB We developed a global structure optimization method, genetic algorithm, for a fast and efficient prediction of grain-boundary structures. Using this method we predicted the most stable structures and a number of low-energy metastable structures for Si[001] symmetric tilted grain boundaries with various tilted angles. We show that most of the grain-boundary structures can be described by the structural unit model with the units being the dislocation cores and perfect-crystal fragments. The energies of the grain-boundary structures obtained from the genetic algorithm optimization are evaluated by tight-binding calculations using the environment-dependent Si tight-binding potential developed previously and found to be in very good agreement with the first-principles calculation results.

AB A positive colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) of 160% has been observed in Tb5Si2.2Ge1.8 with the magnetic field applied parallel to the a axis. When the magnetic field is applied parallel to the b and c axes, the magnetoresistance (MR) is less than 8% and 5%, respectively. The CMR effect originates from intrinsic crystallographic phase coexistence. The anisotropy of the MR effect is due to a unique geometric arrangement of the interphase boundaries and large magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the compound.

AB Relationships among spontaneous generation of voltage (SGV), magnetocaloric effect, temperature induced first-order magnetic phase transformation, and its thermal effect have been studied based on experimental results of La(Fe0.88Si0.12)(13) and SmMn2Ge2 compounds. Remarkable differences in magnetocaloric effects and temperature-induced unit-cell volume changes during their first-order magnetic phase transformations lead to dramatic differences in their SGV effects. Both temperature and magnetic field trigger SGV in La(Fe0.88Si0.12)(13) compound, but no SGV has been observed in SmMn2Ge2. Our results clarify that it is not the first-order crystallographic or magnetic phase transformation per se, but the strong thermal effects, i.e., latent heat and magnetocaloric effect that play the key role in the SGV mechanism.

COLLABORATION; PERSPECTIVE; MATTER
AB Measurements of the azimuthal anisotropy of high-p(T) neutral pion (pi(0)) production in Au+Au collisions at s(NN)=200 GeV by the PHENIX experiment are presented. The data included in this article were collected during the 2004 Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider running period and represent approximately an order of magnitude increase in the number of analyzed events relative to previously published results. Azimuthal angle distributions of pi(0) mesons detected in the PHENIX electromagnetic calorimeters are measured relative to the reaction plane determined event-by-event using the forward and backward beam-beam counters. Amplitudes of the second Fourier component (v(2)) of the angular distributions are presented as a function of pi(0) transverse momentum (p(T)) for different bins in collision centrality. Measured reaction plane dependent pi(0) yields are used to determine the azimuthal dependence of the pi(0) suppression as a function of p(T), R-AA(Delta phi,p(T)). A jet-quenching motivated geometric analysis is presented that attempts to simultaneously describe the centrality dependence and reaction plane angle dependence of the pi(0) suppression in terms of the path lengths of hypothetical parent partons in the medium. This set of results allows for a detailed examination of the influence of geometry in the collision region and of the interplay between collective flow and jet-quenching effects along the azimuthal axis.

AB We present results on the electroexcitation of the low mass resonances Delta(1232)P-33, N(1440)P-11, N(1520)D-13, and N(1535)S-11 in a wide range of Q(2). The results were obtained in the comprehensive analysis of data from the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF) large acceptance spectrometer (CLAS) detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) on differential cross sections, longitudinally polarized beam asymmetries, and longitudinal target and beam-target asymmetries for pi electroproduction off the proton. The data were analyzed using two conceptually different approaches-fixed-t dispersion relations and a unitary isobar model-allowing us to draw conclusions on the model sensitivity of the obtained electrocoupling amplitudes. The amplitudes for the Delta(1232)P-33 show the importance of a meson-cloud contribution to quantitatively explain the magnetic dipole strength, as well as the electric and scalar quadrupole transitions. They do not show any tendency of approaching the pQCD regime for Q(2)<= 6 GeV2. For the Roper resonance, N(1440)P-11, the data provide strong evidence that this state is a predominantly radial excitation of a three-quark (3q) ground state. Measured in pion electroproduction, the transverse helicity amplitude for the N(1535)S-11 allowed us to obtain the branching ratios of this state to the pi N and eta N channels via comparison with the results extracted from eta electroproduction. The extensive CLAS data also enabled the extraction of the gamma(*)p -> N(1520)D-13 and N(1535)S-11 longitudinal helicity amplitudes with good precision. For the N(1535)S-11, these results became a challenge for quark models and may be indicative of large meson-cloud contributions or of representations of this state that differ from a 3q excitation. The transverse amplitudes for the N(1520)D-13 clearly show the rapid changeover from helicity-3/2 dominance at the real photon point to helicity-1/2 dominance at Q(2)>1 GeV2, confirming a long-standing prediction of the constituent quark model.

TI Collective and noncollective states in Cd-116 studied via the beta

AB We have reinvestigated the beta decay of the three isomers of Ag-116 at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF). Through the use of half-life information, we have been able to construct individual decay schemes for each isomer and correct what was a puzzling inconsistency with the published data, namely the beta feeding of 2(+) states by a 5(+) isomer. Our results indicate that the feeding of these levels arises from a 3(+) isomer in Ag-116. A total of 271 gamma-ray transitions (159 new) were assigned to 148 levels (94 new) from the beta decay of Ag-116(m1,m2,gs). Significant deviations are observed from IBM-2 calculations for the decay of the 0(+) and 2(+) members of the previously assigned three-phonon quintuplet. Candidate states for the quadrupole-octupole quintuplet states and pi g(9/2)-pi p(1/2), pi g(9/2)-pi p(3/2), nu h(11/2)-nu s(1/2), nu h(11/2)-nu d(3/2), and nu h(11/2)-nu d(5/2) broken-pair states are assigned.

TI g factor of the 2(1)(+) state of Hf-172
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C
LA English
DT Article
ID INTERACTING BOSON MODEL; NUCLEI; PROTON
AB The g factor of the 2(1)(+) state of Hf-172 was measured using the perturbed angular correlation technique in a static external magnetic field. The result, g(2(1)(+))=0.25(5), is discussed in relation to the systematics of the previously reported g factors in the Hf isotopes and compared with the predictions of several models. An interesting outcome of the analysis presented in this paper is the agreement between the calculated g factors within the interacting boson approximation (IBA) and the results of a large-scale shell model calculation. This agreement supports the emphasis in the IBA on the valence space. The undershooting of the empirical g factors near midshell in both models suggests that they underestimate the role of the saturation of collectivity, which is explicitly incorporated into a phenomenological model that agrees better with the data.

TI Weak-interaction strength from charge-exchange reactions versus beta
decay in the A=40 isoquintet
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C
LA English
DT Article
ID CROSS-SECTIONS; TENSOR FORCE; AR-40; TI-40; EFFICIENCY; DETECTOR
AB We report a measurement of the Gamow-Teller (GT) strength distribution for (40)Ar ->(40)K using the 0(degrees)(p,n) reaction. The measurement extends observed GT strength distribution in the A=40 system up to an excitation energy of similar to 8 MeV. In comparing our results with those from the beta decay of the isospin mirror nucleus (40)Ti, we find that, within the excitation energy region probed by the beta-decay experiment, we observe a total GT strength that is in fair agreement with the beta-decay measurement. However, we find that the relative strength of the two strongest transitions differs by a factor of similar to 1.8 in comparing our results from (p,n) reactions with the beta decay of (40)Ti. Using our results we present the neutrino-capture cross section for (40)Ar.

AB Initial eccentricity and eccentricity fluctuations of the interaction volume created in relativistic collisions of deformed Au-197 and U-238 nuclei are studied using optical and Monte Carlo (MC) Glauber simulations. It is found that the nonsphericity noticeably influences the average eccentricity in central collisions, and eccentricity fluctuations are enhanced from deformation. Quantitative results are obtained for Au+Au and U+U collisions at energy s(NN)=200 GeV.

AB Combined data from four fusion-evaporation reaction experiments were utilized to investigate deformed and superdeformed structures in Zn-62(30)32. Combination of the Gammasphere gamma-ray spectrometer and ancillary particle detection systems allowed for the connection of rotational bands to well-known, low-lying excited states in Zn-62, as well as spectroscopy of discrete high-spin states reaching excitation energies of E-x=42.5 MeV. Four well- or superdeformed bands in Zn-62 are characterized and described by means of cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations.

TI beta decay of the pi f(5/2) ground state of Cu-77 studied with 225 MeV
and 0.2 MeV purified radioactive beams
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C
LA English
DT Article
ID NEUTRON-RICH ZN; NUCLEI; SPECTROSCOPY
AB Isobarically purified beams of Cu-77 with energies of 225 and 0.2 MeV were used at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility of Oak Ridge National Laboratory to study beta decay into states in Zn-77. Data taken at 225 MeV allowed the determination of absolute branching ratios relative to the decay of Cu-77 for this beta decay as well as its daughters. From these we obtained a refined beta-delayed neutron emission probability of 30.3(22)% and a probability that the decay proceeds through Zn-77(g) of 49.1(26)%. A total of 64 gamma rays were placed in a level scheme for Zn-77 containing 35 excited states including one state above the neutron separation energy, whereas two gamma rays were observed for the beta n branch to states in Zn-76. The growth and decay curves of some prominent gamma rays indicate a single beta-decaying state with a half-life of 480(9) ms. The decay pattern for Cu-77, with observed feeding of 8(3)% to 7/2(+) Zn-77(g) and 6(3)% to 1/2(-) Zn-77(m), in contrast to the large feeding observed for decay of pi p(3/2) Cu-73(g) to 1/2(-) Zn-73(g), strongly suggests a pi f(5/2) ground state for the studied Cu-77 activity.

AB We perform a fully relativistic calculation of the H-2(e,e(')p)n reaction in the impulse approximation employing the Gross equation to describe the deuteron ground state, and we use the SAID parametrization of the full NN scattering amplitude to describe the final state interactions (FSIs). The formalism for treating target polarization with arbitrary polarization axes is discussed, and general properties of some asymmetries are derived from it. We show results for momentum distributions and angular distributions of various asymmetries that can only be accessed with polarized targets.

TI gamma-ray spectroscopy study of states in Si-27 relevant for the

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C

ID PROTON THRESHOLD STATES; PRESOLAR GRAINS; AL-26; EMISSION
AB The heavy-ion, fusion-evaporation reaction C-12(O-16,n) was used to identify gamma-decay transitions from excited states in Si-27 above the proton threshold. The precise level energy measurements, J(pi) assignments, and lifetime measurements of astrophysically important Al-26(m)+p resonances have allowed an evaluation of the Al-26(m)(p,gamma)Si-27 reaction rate. An l(p)=0 resonance has been newly identified at a center-of-mass energy in the Al-26(m)+p system of 146.3(3) keV and is expected to dominate the rate for low stellar temperatures. In addition, an l(p)=1 resonance has been identified at 378.3(30) keV and is likely to dominate the rate at high astrophysical temperatures, such as those found in oxygen-neon novae and core-collapse supernovae.

Complete angular distributions were obtained by using the Crystal Ball detector at the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Statistical uncertainties of the differential cross sections vary from 3 to 6% in the backward angle region and from 6 to about 20% in the forward region with the exception of the two most forward angles. The systematic uncertainties are estimated to be about 3% for all momenta.

ID COULOMB BARRIER; SCATTERING; BREAKUP; STATES; HALOS; HE-6
AB The development of a continuum-bin scheme of discretization for three-body projectiles is necessary for studies of reactions of Borromean nuclei such as (6)He within the continuum-discretized coupled-channels approach. Such a procedure, for constructing bin states on selected continuum energy intervals, is formulated and applied for the first time to reactions of a three-body projectile. The continuum representation uses the eigenchannel expansion of the three-body S matrix. The method is applied to the challenging case of the (6)He+(208)Pb reaction at 22 MeV, where an accurate treatment of both the Coulomb and the nuclear interactions with the target is necessary.

ID ION COLLISIONS; ENERGY-LOSS; MESONS; FRAGMENTATION; DECAY
AB We calculate the lowest-order charm and beauty parton distribution functions in and fragmentation functions into D and B mesons using the operator definitions of factorized perturbative quantum chromodynamics (QCD). In the vacuum, we find the leading corrections that arise from the structure of the final-state hadrons. Quark-antiquark potentials extracted from the lattice are employed to demonstrate the existence of open heavy flavor bound-state solutions in the quark-gluon plasma in the vicinity of the critical temperature. We provide first results for the in-medium modification of the heavy-quark distribution and decay probabilities in a comoving plasma. In an improved perturbative QCD description of heavy-flavor dynamics in the thermal medium, we combine D- and B-meson formation and dissociation with parton-level charm and beauty quark quenching to obtain predictions for the heavy-meson and nonphotonic-electron suppression in Cu+Cu and Pb+Pb collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider and the Large Hadron Collider, respectively.

The many-body Schroumldinger equation is solved starting from a two-body Hamiltonian defined by a renormalized low-momentum nucleon-nucleon (NN) interaction and a spherical Berggren basis. The Berggren basis treats bound, resonant, and continuum states on an equal footing and is therefore an appropriate representation of loosely bound and unbound nuclear states near threshold. We show that the inclusion of continuum effects has a significant effect on the low-lying 1(+) and 2(+) excited states in O-24. On the other hand, we find that a correct description of binding energy systematics of the ground states is driven by the proper treatment and inclusion of many-body correlation effects. This is supported by the fact that we get O-25 unstable with respect to O-24 in both oscillator and Berggren representations starting from a O-22 core. Furthermore, we show that the structure of these loosely bound or unbound isotopes is strongly influenced by the S-1(0) component of the NN interaction. This has important consequences for our understanding of nuclear stability.

AB I show that quantum chromodynamics in four dimensions (QCD4) with transverse confinement can be approximately compactified into QCD2 with a transverse quark mass m(T) that is obtained by solving a set of coupled transverse eigenvalue equations. In the limits of a strong coupling and a large number of flavors, QCD2 further admits Schwinger QED2-type bosonized solutions. I therefore examine phenomenologically the space-time dynamics of particles produced in string fragmentation by studying the Wigner function of bosons produced in Schwinger QED2, which mimics many features of string fragmentation in quantum chromodynamics. I find that particles with momenta in different regions of the rapidity plateau are produced at the initial moment of string fragmentation as a quark pulls away from an antiquark at high energies, in contrast to classical depictions of string fragmentation with longitudinal space-momentum-time ordering.

AB Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov calculations of hot fission in Pu-240 have been performed with a newly implemented code that uses the D1S finite-range effective interaction. The hot-scission line is identified in the quadrupole-octupole-moment coordinate space. Fission-fragment shapes are extracted from the calculations. A benchmark calculation for Th-226 is obtained and compared with results in the literature. In addition, technical aspects of the use of HFB calculations for fission studies are examined in detail. In particular, the identification of scission configurations, the sensitivity of near-scission calculations to the choice of collective coordinates in the HFB iterations, and the formalism for the adjustment of collective-variable constraints are discussed. The power of the constraint-adjustment algorithm is illustrated with calculations near the critical scission configurations with up to seven simultaneous constraints.

AB We present measurements of the top quark mass (m(t)) in tt candidate events with two final state leptons using 1 fb(-1) of data collected by the D0 experiment. Our data sample is selected by requiring two fully identified leptons or by relaxing one lepton requirement to an isolated track if at least one jet is tagged as a b jet. The top quark mass is extracted after reconstructing the event kinematics under the tt hypothesis using two methods. In the first method, we integrate over expected neutrino rapidity distributions, and in the second we calculate a weight for the possible top quark masses based on the observed particle momenta and the known parton distribution functions. We analyze 83 candidate events in the data and obtain m(t)=176.2 +/- 4.8(stat)+/- 2.1(sys) GeV and m(t)=173.2 +/- 4.9(stat)+/- 2.0(sys) GeV for the two methods, respectively. Accounting for correlations between the two methods, we combine the measurements to obtain m(t)=174.7 +/- 4.4(stat)+/- 2.0(sys) GeV.

AB The cosmic ray interaction event generator Sibyll is widely used in extensive air shower simulations. We describe in detail the properties of Sibyll 2.1 and the differences with the original version 1.7. The major structural improvements are the possibility to have multiple soft interactions, introduction of new parton density functions, and an improved treatment of diffraction. Sibyll 2.1 gives better agreement with fixed target and collider data, especially for the inelastic cross sections and multiplicities of secondary particles. Shortcomings and suggestions for future improvements are also discussed.

AB We present measurements of the branching fraction B and longitudinal polarization fraction f(L) for B-0 -> a(1)(1260)(+)a(1)(1260)(-) decays, with a(1)(1260)(+/-)->pi(-)pi(+)pi(+/-). The data sample, collected with the BABAR detector at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, represents 465x10(6) produced BB pairs. We measure B(B-0 -> a(1)(1260)(+)a(1)(1260)(-))x[B(a(1)(1260)(+)->pi(-)pi(+)pi(+))](2)= (11.8 +/- 2.6 +/- 1.6)x10(-6) and f(L)=0.31 +/- 0.22 +/- 0.10, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. The decay mode is measured with a significance of 5.0 standard deviations including systematic uncertainties.

TI Measurements of the tau mass and the mass difference of the tau(+) and
tau(-) at BABAR
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D
LA English
DT Article
ID RADIATIVE-CORRECTIONS; DECAY; DETECTOR; LEPTONS
AB We present the result from a precision measurement of the mass of the tau lepton, M-tau, based on 423 fb(-1) of data recorded at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BABAR detector. Using a pseudomass endpoint method, we determine the mass to be 1776.68 +/- 0.12(stat)+/- 0.41(syst) MeV. We also measure the mass difference between the tau(+) and tau(-), and obtain (M-tau(+)-M-tau(-))/M-AVG(tau)=(-3.4 +/- 1.3(stat)+/- 0.3(syst))x10(-4), where M-AVG(tau) is the average value of M-tau(+) and M-tau(-).

TI Measurement of CP violation observables and parameters for the decays
B-+/--> DK*+/-
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D
LA English
DT Article
ID WEAK PHASE; GAMMA; PHYSICS
AB We study the decay B--> DK*- using a sample of 379x10(6) Upsilon(4S)-> BB events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II B factory. We perform a Gronau-London-Wyler analysis where the D meson decays into either a CP-even (CP+) eigenstate (K+K-, pi(+)pi(-)), CP-odd (CP-) eigenstate (K-S(0)pi(0), K-S(0)phi, K-S(0)omega) or a non-CP state (K-pi(+)). We also analyze D meson decays into K+pi(-) from a Cabibbo-favored D-0 decay or doubly suppressed D-0 decay [Atwood-Dunietz-Soni (ADS) analysis]. We measure observables that are sensitive to the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa angle gamma: the partial-rate charge asymmetries A(CP +/-), the ratios R-CP +/- of the B-decay branching fractions in CP +/- and non-CP decay, the ratio R-ADS of the charge-averaged branching fractions, and the charge asymmetry A(ADS) of the ADS decays: A(CP+)=0.09 +/- 0.13 +/- 0.06, A(CP-)=-0.23 +/- 0.21 +/- 0.07, RCP+=2.17 +/- 0.35 +/- 0.09, RCP-=1.03 +/- 0.27 +/- 0.13, R-ADS=0.066 +/- 0.031 +/- 0.010, and A(ADS)=-0.34 +/- 0.43 +/- 0.16, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. Combining all the measurements and using a frequentist approach yields the magnitude of the ratio between the Cabibbo-suppressed and favored amplitudes, r(B)=0.31 with a one (two) sigma confidence level interval of [0.24, 0.38] ([0.17, 0.43]). The value r(B)=0 is excluded at the 3.3 sigma level. A similar analysis excludes values of gamma in the intervals [0, 7]degrees, [55, 111]degrees, and [175, 180]degrees ([85, 99]degrees) at the one (two) sigma confidence level.

TI Study of D-sJ decays to (DK)-K-* in inclusive e(+)e(-) interactions
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D
LA English
DT Article
ID HEAVY-LIGHT MESONS; QUARK; D-SJ(2860)
AB We observe the decays D-s1(*)(2710)(+)->(DK)-K-* and D-sJ(*)(2860)(+)->(DK)-K-* and measure their branching fractions relative to the DK final state. We also observe, in the (DK)-K-* mass spectrum, a new broad structure at a mass of (3044 +/- 8(stat)(+30-5)(syst)) MeV/c(2) having a width Gamma=(239 +/- 35(stat)(+46-42)(syst)) MeV. To obtain this result we use 470 fb(-1) of data recorded by the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) storage rings at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center running at center-of-mass energies near 10.6 GeV.

TI General features of supersymmetric signals at the ILC: Solving the CERN
LHC inverse problem

ID SEARCH; LEP; COLLIDER; PHYSICS
AB We present the first detailed, large-scale study of the minimal supersymmetric standard model (MSSM) at the s=500 GeV International Linear Collider (ILC), including full standard model backgrounds and detector simulation. This is the first realistic study of the capabilities of the ILC examining the physics of many distinct points in MSSM parameter space which are not linked to a particular supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking mechanism. Specifically, we investigate 242 points in the MSSM parameter space, which we term models, that correspond to the 162 pairs of models that were found by Arkani-Hamed et al. to give indistinguishable signatures at the LHC. We first determine whether the production of the various SUSY particles is visible above the standard model background for each of these parameter space points, and then make a detailed comparison of their various signatures. Assuming an integrated luminosity of 500 fb(-1) with 80% electron beam polarization, we find that only 82 out of 242 models lead to visible signatures of some kind with a significance >= 5 and that only 57 (63) out of the 162 model pairs are distinguishable at 5 (3)sigma. Our analysis includes PYTHIA and CompHEP SUSY signal generation, full matrix element SM backgrounds for all 2 -> 2, 2 -> 4 and 2 -> 6 processes, ILC-specific initial state radiation and beamstrahlung generated via WHIZARD/GuineaPig, and employs the fast SiD detector simulation org.lcsim. If SUSY is light, the ILC will do a good job at examining its details.

ID MICROWAVE BACKGROUND ANISOTROPIES; COSMOLOGICAL MODEL; ANGULAR
VARIATIONS; PERTURBATIONS
AB Weak gravitational lensing leaves a characteristic imprint on the cosmic microwave background temperature and polarization angular power spectra. Here, we investigate the possible constraints on the integrated lensing potential from future cosmic microwave background angular spectra measurements expected from Planck and EPIC. We find that Planck and EPIC will constrain the amplitude of the integrated projected potential responsible for lensing at 6% and 1% level, respectively, with very little sensitivity to the shape of the lensing potential. We discuss the implications of such a measurement in constraining dark energy and modified gravity scalar-tensor theories. We then discuss the impact of a wrong assumption on the weak lensing potential amplitude on cosmological parameter inference.

ID HUBBLE-SPACE-TELESCOPE; RAY BURST PROGENITORS; COMPACT BINARIES; IA
SUPERNOVAE; BLACK-HOLES; CONSTANT; PROSPECTS; UNIVERSE; GRAVITY; MERGERS
AB We show that the Big Bang Observer (BBO), a proposed space-based gravitational-wave (GW) detector, would provide ultraprecise measurements of cosmological parameters. By detecting similar to 3x10(5) compact-star binaries, and utilizing them as standard sirens, BBO would determine the Hubble constant to similar to 0.1%, and the dark-energy parameters w(0) and w(a) to similar to 0.01 and similar to 0.1, respectively. BBO's dark-energy figure-of-merit would be approximately an order of magnitude better than all other proposed, dedicated dark-energy missions. To date, BBO has been designed with the primary goal of searching for gravitational waves from inflation, down to the level Omega(GW)similar to 10(-17); this requirement determines BBO's frequency band (deci-Hz) and its sensitivity requirement (strain measured to similar to 10(-24)). To observe an inflationary GW background, BBO would first have to detect and subtract out similar to 3x10(5) merging compact-star binaries, out to a redshift z similar to 5. It is precisely this carefully measured foreground which would enable high-precision cosmology. BBO would determine the luminosity distance to each binary to similar to percent accuracy. In addition, BBO's angular resolution would be sufficient to uniquely identify the host galaxy for the majority of binaries; a coordinated optical/infrared observing campaign could obtain the redshifts. Combining the GW-derived distances and the electromagnetically-derived redshifts for such a large sample of objects, out to such high redshift, naturally leads to extraordinarily tight constraints on cosmological parameters. We emphasize that such "standard siren" measurements of cosmology avoid many of the systematic errors associated with other techniques: GWs offer a physics-based, absolute measurement of distance. In addition, we show that BBO would also serve as an exceptionally powerful gravitational-lensing mission, and we briefly discuss other astronomical uses of BBO, including providing an early warning system for all short/hard gamma-ray bursts.

2-FLAVOR QCD; QUARK MASS; THERMODYNAMICS; DEPENDENCE
AB A first study of critical behavior in the vicinity of the chiral phase transition of (2+1)-flavor QCD is presented. We analyze the quark mass and volume dependence of the chiral condensate and chiral susceptibilities in QCD with two degenerate light quark masses and a strange quark. The strange quark mass (m(s)) is chosen close to its physical value; the two degenerate light quark masses (m(l)) are varied in a wide range 1/80 < m(l)/m(s)< 2/5, where the smallest light quark mass value corresponds to a pseudoscalar Goldstone mass of about 75 MeV. All calculations are performed with staggered fermions on lattices with temporal extent N-tau=4. We show that numerical results are consistent with O(N) scaling in the chiral limit. We find that in the region of physical light quark mass values, m(l)/m(s)similar or equal to 1/20, the temperature and quark mass dependence of the chiral condensate is already dominated by universal properties of QCD that are encoded in the scaling function for the chiral order parameter, the magnetic equation of state. We also provide evidence for the influence of thermal fluctuations of Goldstone modes on the chiral condensate at finite temperature. At temperatures below, but close to the chiral phase transition at vanishing quark mass, this leads to a characteristic dependence of the light quark chiral condensate on the square root of the light quark mass.

AB A scenario is investigated in which the leading-twist pion distribution amplitude phi(pi)(x) is approximated by the pion decay constant f(pi) for all essential values of the light-cone fraction x. A model for the light-front wave function Psi(x,k(perpendicular to)) is proposed that produces such a distribution amplitude and has a rapidly decreasing (exponential for definiteness) dependence on the light-front energy combination k(perpendicular to)(2)/x(1-x). It is shown that this model easily reproduces the fit of recent large-Q(2) BABAR data on the photon-pion transition form factor. Some aspects of the scenario with flat pion distribution amplitude are discussed.

AB We study multiphoton effects in quantum electrodynamics in lepton photoproduction on heavy nuclei and nuclear medium at high energies. We are interested in energy, charge density, and nuclear geometry dependence of the cross sections. We use the impact parameter representation that allows us to reduce the problem of photoproduction to the problem of propagation of electric dipoles in the nuclear Coulomb field. In the framework of the Glauber model we resum an infinite series of multiphoton amplitudes corresponding to multiple rescattering of the electric dipole on the nucleus. We find that unitarity effects arising due to multiphoton interactions are small and energy independent for scattering on a single nucleus, whereas in the case of macroscopic nuclear medium they saturate the geometric limit of the total cross section. We discuss an analogy between nuclear medium and intense laser beams.

AB We study the production of sterile neutrinos in the region T similar to M-W in an extension beyond the standard model with the seesaw mass matrix originating in Yukawa couplings to Higgs-like scalars with masses and vev's of the order of the electroweak scale. Sterile neutrinos are produced by the decay of scalars and standard model vector bosons. We obtain the index of refraction, dispersion relations, mixing angles in the medium and production rates including those for right-handed sterile neutrinos, from the standard model and beyond the standard model self-energies. For 1 less than or similar to M-W/T less than or similar to 3 we find narrow MSW resonances with k less than or similar to T for both left- and right-handed neutrinos even in absence of a lepton asymmetry in the (active) neutrino sector, as well as very low energy (k/T 40 keV) for the direct density measurement of iron compressed by a laser-driven shock. By using an on-shot calibration of the spectral absorption, we are able to obtain line densities with 5%-10% precision, although the x-ray source is not monochromatic. We also discuss possibilities for increasing the precision, which would be an improvement for equation of state measurements.

AB It is possible in principle to probe the many-atom potential surface using density functional theory (DFT). This will allow us to apply DFT to the Hamiltonian formulation of atomic motion in monatomic liquids by Wallace [Phys. Rev. E 56, 4179 (1997)]. For a monatomic system, analysis of the potential surface is facilitated by the random and symmetric classification of potential-energy valleys. Since the random valleys are numerically dominant and uniform in their macroscopic potential properties, only a few quenches are necessary to establish these properties. Here we describe an efficient technique for doing this. Quenches are done from easily generated "stochastic" configurations, in which the nuclei are distributed uniformly within a constraint limiting the closeness of approach. For metallic Na with atomic pair potential interactions, it is shown that quenches from stochastic configurations and quenches from equilibrium liquid molecular dynamics configurations produce statistically identical distributions of the structural potential energy. Again for metallic Na, it is shown that DFT quenches from stochastic configurations provide the parameters which calibrate the Hamiltonian. A statistical mechanical analysis shows how the underlying potential properties can be extracted from the distributions found in quenches from stochastic configurations.

AB Self-consistent Vlasov-Poisson simulations of beams with high space-charge intensity often require specification of initial phase-space distributions that reflect properties of a beam that is well adapted to the transport channel-both in terms of low-order rms (envelope) properties as well as the higher-order phase-space structure. Here, we first review broad classes of kinetic distributions commonly in use as initial Vlasov distributions in simulations of unbunched or weakly bunched beams with intense space-charge fields including the following: the Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij (KV) equilibrium, continuous-focusing equilibria with specific detailed examples, and various nonequilibrium distributions, such as the semi-Gaussian distribution and distributions formed from specified functions of linear-field Courant-Snyder invariants. Important practical details necessary to specify these distributions in terms of standard accelerator inputs are presented in a unified format. Building on this presentation, a new class of approximate initial kinetic distributions are constructed using transformations that preserve linear focusing, single-particle Courant-Snyder invariants to map initial continuous-focusing equilibrium distributions to a form more appropriate for noncontinuous focusing channels. Self-consistent particle-in-cell simulations are employed to show that the approximate initial distributions generated in this manner are better adapted to the focusing channels for beams with high space-charge intensity. This improved capability enables simulations that more precisely probe intrinsic stability properties and machine performance.

TI Grazing function g and collimation angular acceptance
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW SPECIAL TOPICS-ACCELERATORS AND BEAMS
LA English
DT Article
AB The grazing function g is introduced-a synchrobetatron optical quantity that is analogous (and closely connected) to the Twiss and dispersion functions beta, alpha, eta, and eta '. It parametrizes the rate of change of total angle with respect to synchrotron amplitude for grazing particles, which just touch the surface of an aperture when their synchrotron and betatron oscillations are simultaneously (in time) at their extreme displacements. The grazing function can be important at collimators with limited acceptance angles. For example, it is important in both modes of crystal collimation operation-in channeling and in volume reflection. The grazing function is independent of the collimator type-crystal or amorphous-but can depend strongly on its azimuthal location. The rigorous synchrobetatron condition g = 0 is solved, by invoking the close connection between the grazing function and the slope of the normalized dispersion. Propagation of the grazing function is described, through drifts, dipoles, and quadrupoles. Analytic expressions are developed for g in perfectly matched periodic FODO cells, and in the presence of beta or eta error waves. These analytic approximations are shown to be, in general, in good agreement with realistic numerical examples. The grazing function is shown to scale linearly with FODO cell bend angle, but to be independent of FODO cell length. The ideal value is g = 0 at the collimator, but finite nonzero values are acceptable. Practically achievable grazing functions are described and evaluated, for both amorphous and crystal primary collimators, at RHIC, the SPS (UA9), the Tevatron (T-980), and the LHC.

AB We investigate the scale-locality of subgrid-scale (SGS) energy flux and interband energy transfers defined by the sharp spectral filter. We show by rigorous bounds, physical arguments, and numerical simulations that the spectral SGS flux is dominated by local triadic interactions in an extended turbulent inertial range. Interband energy transfers are also shown to be dominated by local triads if the spectral bands have constant width on it logarithmic scale. We disprove in particular an alternative picture of "local transfer by nonlocal triads," with the advecting wavenumber mode at the energy peak. Although such triads have the largest transfer rates of all individual wavenumber triads, we show rigorously that.. due to their restricted number, they make an asymptotically negligible contribution to energy flux and log-banded energy transfers at high wavenumbers in the inertial range We show that it is only the aggregate effect of a geometrically increasing number of wavenumber triads which can sustain an energy cascade to small scales. Furthermore, nonlocal triads are argued to contribute even less to the space-average energy flux than is implied by our rigorous bounds, because of additional cancellations from scale-decorrelation effects. We can thus recover the -4/3 scaling of nonlocal contributions to spectral energy flux predicted by Kraichnan's abridged Lagrangian-history direct-interaction approximation and test-field model closures. We support our results with numerical data from a 512(3) pseudospectral simulation of isotropic turbulence with phase-shift dealiasing. We also discuss a rigorous counterexample of Eyink [Physica D 78, 222 (1994)], which showed that nonlocal wavenumber triads may dominate in the sharp spectral flux (but not in the SGS energy flux for graded filters). We show that this mathematical counterexample fails to satisfy reasonable physical requirements for a turbulent velocity field. which are employed in our proof of scale locality. We conclude that the sharp spectral filter has a firm theoretical basis for use in large-eddy simulation modeling of turbulent flows. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physic. [doi:10.1063/1.3266948]

AB We introduce a novel approach to scale decomposition of the fluid kinetic energy (or other quadratic integrals) into band-pass contributions from it series of length scales. Our decomposition is based on a multiscale generalization of the "Germano identity" for smooth, graded filter kernels. We employ this method to derive a budget equation that describes the transfers of turbulent kinetic energy both in space and in scale. It is shown that the interscale energy transfer is dominated by local triadic interactions, assuming only the scaling properties expected in a turbulent inertial range. We derive rigorous upper bounds on the contributions of nonlocal triads, extending the work of Eyink [Physica D 207, 91 (2005)] for low-pass filtering. We also propose a physical explanation of the differing exponents for our rigorous upper bounds and for the scaling predictions of Kraichnan [Phys. Fluids 9, 1728 (1966): J Fluid Mech 47, 525 (1971)] The faster decay predicted by Kraichnan is argued to be the consequence of additional cancellations in the signed contributions to transfer from nonlocal triads after averaging, over space. This picture is supported by data from a 512(3) pseudospectral simulation of Navier-Stokes turbulence with phase-shift dealiasing. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3266883]

A three-dimiensional single-mode perturbation is created by the periodic vertical motion of the Gases within the shock tube. Richtmyer-Meshkov instability is produced by all impulsive acceleration by it weak shock wave (M(s)= 1.2). Planar laser induced fluorescence produces still images. and planar Mie scattering produces movies of the experiment. A three-dimensional numerical simulation Of this experiment utilizing the Eulerian adaptive mesh refinement code, RAPTOR, was also conducted. Good agreerment is obtained between experiments and the simulations However. existing late time models, which have a I It dependence, disagree with measurements of the late time instability development. In contrast, both the experiments and simulation suggest a r(-0.54) late time dependence for the overall growth rate Comparisons with individual bubble and spike velocities show the bubbles appear to decay approximately at I It and the spikes to decay at a much slower rate of t(-0.38).

DT Article
ID MAGNETIZED TARGET FUSION
AB Plasma liner driven magnetoinertial fusion (PLMIF) is it fusion energy concept that utilizes an imploding plasma liner to shock heat and compress a magnetized target plasma to fusion conditions. The fusion burn fraction is linearly proportional to the confinement (or "dwell") time of the liner-target system at peak compression, and therefore it is important to estimate the dwell time accurately in order to assess the fusion energy yield and gain. In this work, the dwell time has been estimated Using the exact solution to it self-similar converging shock model. The dwell time was found to be determined by the SUM Of the Outgoing shock and rarefaction times through the plasma liner at peak compression, and for chosen PLMIF conditions the dwell time was on the order of 1 mu s. In addition. we show that the engineering gain, i.e., the total energy extracted as electricity (from fusion plus expanded liner energy) divided by the electrical energy required to implode the liner, exceeds unity for a wide range of liner thicknesses and specific heat ratios (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

AB The radiative precursor of a sufficiently fast shock has been observed to drive the vaporization of shock tube material ahead of the shock. The resulting expansion drives a converging blast wave into the gas volume of the tube. The effects of this wall shock may be observed and correlated with primary shock parameters. We demonstrate this process in experiments performed on the Omega Laser Facility, launching shocks propagating through xenon with speeds above 100 km/s driven by ablation pressures of approximately 50 Mbars. Wall shocks in laser experiments, in which the principal shock waves themselves should not be radiative, are also reported-in which the wall shocks have been launched by some other early energy source.

AB This paper describes a theory of the velocity space scattering of charged particles in a static magnetic field composed of a uniform background field and a sum of transverse, circularly polarized, magnetic waves. When that sum has many terms the autocorrelation time required for particle orbits to become effectively randomized is small compared with the time required for the particle velocity distribution to change significantly. In this regime the deterministic equations of motion can be transformed into stochastic differential equations of motion. The resulting stochastic velocity space scattering is described, in part. by a pitch angle diffusion rate that is it function of initial pitch angle and properties of the wave spectrum. Numerical solutions of the deterministic equations of motion agree with the theory at all pitch angles, for wave energy densities up to and above the energy density of the uniform field. and for different wave spectral shapes.

TI Transport of energy by ultraintense laser-generated electrons in

ID IGNITION; PLASMA; CRYSTALS; FUSION; GAIN
AB Nail-wire targets (20 mu m diameter copper wires with 80 Am hemispherical head) were used to investigate energy transport by relativistic fast electrons generated in intense laser-plasma interactions. The targets were irradiated using the 300 J, 1 ps, and 2 x 10(20) W. cm(-2) Vulcan laser at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory. A spherically bent crystal imager, a highly ordered pyrolytic graphite spectrometer, and single photon counting charge-coupled device gave absolute Cu K alpha measurements. Results show a concentration of energy deposition in the head and an approximately exponential fall-off along the wire with about 60 mu m 1/e decay length due to resistive inhibition. The coupling efficiency to the wire was 3.3 +/- 1.7% with an average hot electron temperature of 620 +/- 125 keV. Extreme ultraviolet images (68 and 256 eV) indicate additional heating of a thin surface layer of the wire. Modeling using the hybrid E-PLAS code has been compared with the experimental data, showing evidence of resistive heating, magnetic trapping, and surface transport.

ID SOLID-DENSITY TARGETS; PLASMA INTERACTIONS; ABSORPTION; PULSES; IGNITION
AB Superintense laser light (>10(20) W/cm(2)) is able to sweep the preplasma over short times and compress the preplasma density gradient typically generated by the prepulse of today's high-intensity, high energy laser systems. Hot electron generation at steep plasma density gradients has been studied in a previous paper [A. J. Kemp, Y Sentoku, and M. Tabak, Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 075004 (2008)], which identified a mode of hot electron acceleration that is characterized by the formation of low-density shelf in front of the target. In this paper, we deal with laser incidence on slab target in one-dimensional situation and follow the formation of a steep interface and hot electron acceleration up to later stages of the interaction. We find that a novel mode of absorption appears during which the coupling efficiency drops, while a large number of sub-MeV hot electrons is produced at the interface. These dc-ponderomotive electrons play a dominant role in the bulk heating of solid density targets. We propose an analytical model to describe this absorption mode. explain electron energy spectra, and identify the parameter regime where it appears. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

AB A suite of three-dimensional (3D) VPIC [K. J. Bowers et al., Phys. Plasmas 15, 055703 (2008)] particle-in-cell simulations of backward stimulated Raman scattering (SRS) in inertial confinement fusion hohlraum plasma has been performed on the heterogeneous multicore supercomputer, Roadrunner, presently the world's most powerful supercomputer. These calculations reveal the complex nonlinear behavior of SRS and point to a new era of "at scale" 3D modeling of SRS in solitary and multiple laser speckles. The physics governing nonlinear saturation of SRS in a laser speckle in 3D is consistent with that of prior two-dimensional (2D) studies [L. Yin et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 265004 (2007)], but with important differences arising from enhanced diffraction and side loss in 3D compared with 2D. In addition to wave front bowing of electron plasma waves (EPWs) due to trapped electron nonlinear frequency shift and amplitude-dependent damping, we find for the first time that EPW self-focusing, which evolved from trapped particle modulational instability [H. A. Rose and L. Yin, Phys. Plasmas 15, 042311 (2008)], also exhibits loss of angular coherence by formation of a filament necklace, a process not available in 2D. These processes in 2D and 3D increase the side-loss rate of trapped electrons, increase wave damping, decrease source coherence for backscattered light, and fundamentally limit how much backscatter can occur from a laser speckle. For both SRS onset and saturation, the nonlinear trapping induced physics is not captured in linear gain modeling of SRS. A simple metric is described for using single-speckle reflectivities obtained from VPIC simulations to infer the total reflectivity from the population of laser speckles of amplitude sufficient for significant trapping-induced nonlinearity to arise.

AB Inertial effects in nonlinear magnetic reconnection arc studied within the context of two-dimensional electron magnetohydrodynamics with resistive and viscous dissipation. Families of nonlinear solutions for relevant current sheet parameters are predicted and confirmed numerically in all regimes of interest. Electron inertia becomes important for current sheet thicknesses delta below the inertial length d(e). In this case, in the absence of electron viscosity, the sheet thickness experiences a nonlinear collapse to arbitrarily small scales. Viscosity regularizes solutions at small scales The transition between resistive and Viscous regimes features a hysteresis bifurcation that describes suitable current sheet Solutions and reconnection rates Away from transition, the nonlinear reconnection rate is found not to be explicitly dependent on the electron inertia or dissipation coefficients (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

AB This paper reports on measurements within the 5-300-K temperature interval of the thermal conductivity of Si3N4 and BN polycrystalline ceramic samples and Si3N4/BN fiber monoliths (FM) with different fiber arrangement architecture, [0], [90], and [0/90], with fibers arranged, accordingly, along and across the sample axis and the [0] and [90] layers stacked alternately. In the 3.5-300-K interval, the heat capacity at constant pressure, and at 77 K, the sound velocity have been measured in polycrystalline Si3N4 and BN samples and in Si3N4/BN [0] fiber monoliths. Our studies suggest that, with a high enough degree of confidence, but for some compositions-with minor assumptions, it can be maintained that, in the case of the Si3N4/BN fiber monoliths, one can use for calculation of their thermal conductivities and heat capacities within certain temperature intervals simple models considering mixtures of the Si3N4 and BN components with due account of their contributions to formation of the Si3N4/BN FM. It has been established that in the low-temperature domain (5-25 K), phonons in Si3N4/BN [0], [90], and [0/90] fiber monoliths scatter primarily from dislocations. This effect is not observed in ceramic Si3N4 and BN samples. The experimental data obtained on the thermal conductivity, heat capacity, and sound velocity have been used to calculate phonon mean free path lengths in polycrystalline Si3N4 and BN samples and the effective mean free path length in the Si3N4/BN [0] FM.

AB We used greenhouse experiments to evaluate cesium (Cs) uptake by four grasses, Agropyron spicatum (Pursh) Scribn & Smith, Leymus cinereus Scribn & Merr., Agropyron cristatum (L.) Gaertn. and Bromus tectorum L., to determine their potential as phytoremediation agents for Cs-contaminated soils. These four species grow well in the Intermountain region of western North America primarily on moderately coarse to coarsely textured soils where annual precipitation ranges from 20 to 50 cm. Whereas A. cristatum and B. tectorum are introduced species from Asia and the Mediterranean region of Europe, respectively, A. spicatum and L. cinereus are native to the Great Plains and Intermountain regions of North America. Plants were grown under two treatments each of: (1) soil Cs (ambient and 50 mg kg(-1) + ambient), (2) soil fertility (ambient and ambient + 40 mg N kg(-1) and 60 mg P kg(-1)), and 3) soil moisture (35% and 70% water holding capacity of the potted soils). Shoot Cs concentration in high soil Cs treatments was approximately ten times greater than in low soil Cs treatments. Even though shoot Cs concentrations tended to be lower in high soil Cs-high fertility-high soil moisture treatments than in high soil Cs-ambient fertility-low soil moisture treatments, total Cs uptake was greater because shoot biomass was approximately ten-fold greater. Shoots did not show signs of Cs toxicity in the high soil Cs treatments. We concluded, however, based on the low transfer factors (similar to 1.0) for all these grasses, that none were strong candidates as phytoremediation agents for Cs-contaminated soils.

AB In vitro zygotic and somatic embryogenesis protocols rely on nutrient and hormone levels from media to satisfy the physiological and developmental requirements of embryony. To better understand these requirements for cotton, we quantified levels of major and minor elements, carbohydrates, NH4 (+), free amino acids and six hormones in whole cotton ovules (with fibers removed), nucelli (ovules with integuments removed), or ovule fluid (extracted from the endosperm region). Samples were collected from field-grown cotton at 1-18 days-past-anthesis (DPA) during each of three growing seasons. Replication across 2 years was obtained for carbohydrates, NH4 (+), free amino acids and hormones from nucellus samples. The year effect was large primarily for hormones only. The most abundant minerals across tissue types and years were K, P, Mg and S. Potassium was the most abundant at 260, 600 and 1,660 mmol kg(-1) dry mass (DM) in nucelli, whole ovules and ovule fluid, respectively. Magnesium, Ca, Zn and Mn levels were 2-8-fold higher in ovule fluid compared to whole ovules or nucelli. In the free amino acid plus NH4 (+) category, NH4 (+), alanine, serine, glycine, asparagine (plus aspartic acid), glutamine (plus glutamic acid), leucine, threonine and arginine predominated in nucelli and ovule fluid, and levels tended to be higher in the older samples across years and tissue types. Fructose and glucose levels also increased with age with very high levels being found in late DPA ovule fluid. Arabinose, inositol and melibiose were also prominent sugars. Indole-3-acetic acid levels were similar between nucelli and ovule fluid and ranged from 10 to 80 mu mol kg(-1) DM. An abscisic acid spike, from 15 to 400 mu mol kg(-1) DM, occurred in nucelli and whole ovules from 2 to 8 DPA. Thereafter, abscisic acid levels remained between 5 and 10 mu mol kg(-1) DM. Zeatin and zeatin riboside were the most abundant cytokinins, and levels of these hormones fluctuated between 1 and 4 mu mol kg(-1) DM in both nucelli and ovule fluid.

AB P>MYB46 functions as a transcriptional switch that turns on the genes necessary for secondary wall biosynthesis. Elucidating the transcriptional regulatory network immediately downstream of MYB46 is crucial to our understanding of the molecular and biochemical processes involved in the biosynthesis and deposition of secondary walls in plants. To gain insights into MYB46-mediated transcriptional regulation, we first established an inducible secondary wall thickening system in Arabidopsis by expressing MYB46 under the control of dexamethasone-inducible promoter. Then, we used an ATH1 GeneChip microarray and Illumina digital gene expression system to obtain a series of transcriptome profiles with regard to the induction of secondary wall development. These analyses allowed us to identify a group of transcription factors whose expression coincided with or preceded the induction of secondary wall biosynthetic genes. A transient transcriptional activation assay was used to confirm the hierarchical relationships among the transcription factors in the network. The in vivo assay showed that MYB46 transcriptionally activates downstream target transcription factors, three of which (AtC3H14, MYB52 and MYB63) were shown to be able to activate secondary wall biosynthesis genes. AtC3H14 activated the transcription of all of the secondary wall biosynthesis genes tested, suggesting that AtC3H14 may be another master regulator of secondary wall biosynthesis. The transcription factors identified here may include direct activators of secondary wall biosynthesis genes. The present study discovered novel hierarchical relationships among the transcription factors involved in the transcriptional regulation of secondary wall biosynthesis, and generated several testable hypotheses.

AB Growth at elevated [CO(2)] stimulates photosynthesis and increases carbon (C) supply in all C(3) species. A sustained and maximal stimulation in productivity at elevated [CO(2)] requires an enhanced nutrient supply to match the increase in C acquisition. The ability of legumes to exchange C for nitrogen (N) with their N(2)-fixing symbionts has led to the hypothesis that legumes will have a competitive advantage over non-leguminous species when grown at elevated [CO(2)]. On balance, evidence suggests that in managed systems, legumes are more responsive to elevated [CO(2)] than other plants (e.g. Ainsworth and Long, 2005); however, in natural ecosystems, nutrient availability can limit the response of legumes to elevated [CO(2)] (Hungate et al., 2004; van Groenigen et al., 2006). Here, we consider these observations, outline the mechanisms that underlie them, and examine recent work that advances our understanding of how legumes respond to growth at elevated [CO(2)]. First we highlight the global importance of legumes and provide a brief overview of the symbiotic relationship.

AB Major storage reserves of Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) seeds are triacylglycerols ( seed oils) and proteins. Seed oil content is severely reduced for the regulatory mutant wrinkled1 (wri1-1; At3g54320) and for a double mutant in two isoforms of plastidic pyruvate kinase (pkp beta(1)pkp alpha; At5g52920 and At3g22960). Both already biochemically well-characterized mutants were now studied by 13 C metabolic flux analysis of cultured developing embryos based on comparison with their respective genetic wild-type backgrounds. For both mutations, in seeds as well as in cultured embryos, the oil fraction was strongly reduced while the fractions of proteins and free metabolites increased. Flux analysis in cultured embryos revealed changes in nutrient uptakes and fluxes into biomass as well as an increase in tricarboxylic acid cycle activity for both mutations. While in both wild types plastidic pyruvate kinase (PK(p)) provides most of the pyruvate for plastidic fatty acid synthesis, the flux through PK(p) is reduced in pkp beta(1)pkp alpha by 43% of the wild-type value. In wri1-1, PK(p) flux is even more reduced ( by 82%), although the genes PKp beta(1) and PKp alpha are still expressed. Along a common paradigm of metabolic control theory, it is hypothesized that a large reduction in PK(p) enzyme activity in pkp beta(1)pkp alpha has less effect on PK(p) flux than multiple smaller reductions in glycolytic enzymes in wri1-1. In addition, only in the wri1-1 mutant is the large reduction in PK(p) flux compensated in part by an increased import of cytosolic pyruvate and by plastidic malic enzyme. No such limited compensatory bypass could be observed in pkp beta(1)pkp alpha.

AB Scientists and clinicians who study genetic alterations and disease have traditionally described phenotypes in natural language. The considerable variation in these free-text descriptions has posed a hindrance to the important task of identifying candidate genes and models for human diseases and indicates the need for a computationally tractable method to mine data resources for mutant phenotypes. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that ontological annotation of disease phenotypes will facilitate the discovery of new genotype-phenotype relationships within and across species. To describe phenotypes using ontologies, we used an Entity-Quality (EQ) methodology, wherein the affected entity (E) and how it is affected (Q) are recorded using terms from a variety of ontologies. Using this EQ method, we annotated the phenotypes of 11 gene-linked human diseases described in Online Mendelian Inheritance in Man (OMIM). These human annotations were loaded into our Ontology-Based Database (OBD) along with other ontology-based phenotype descriptions of mutants from various model organism databases. Phenotypes recorded with this EQ method can be computationally compared based on the hierarchy of terms in the ontologies and the frequency of annotation. We utilized four similarity metrics to compare phenotypes and developed an ontology of homologous and analogous anatomical structures to compare phenotypes between species. Using these tools, we demonstrate that we can identify, through the similarity of the recorded phenotypes, other alleles of the same gene, other members of a signaling pathway, and orthologous genes and pathway members across species. We conclude that EQ-based annotation of phenotypes, in conjunction with a cross-species ontology, and a variety of similarity metrics can identify biologically meaningful similarities between genes by comparing phenotypes alone. This annotation and search method provides a novel and efficient means to identify gene candidates and animal models of human disease, which may shorten the lengthy path to identification and understanding of the genetic basis of human disease.

AB It is a long-held belief in evolutionary biology that the rate of molecular evolution for a given DNA sequence is inversely related to the level of functional constraint. This belief holds true for the protein-coding homeotic (Hox) genes originally discovered in Drosophila melanogaster. Expression of the Hox genes in Drosophila embryos is essential for body patterning and is controlled by an extensive array of cis-regulatory modules (CRMs). How the regulatory modules functionally evolve in different species is not clear. A comparison of the CRMs for the Abdominal-B gene from different Drosophila species reveals relatively low levels of overall sequence conservation. However, embryonic enhancer CRMs from other Drosophila species direct transgenic reporter gene expression in the same spatial and temporal patterns during development as their D. melanogaster orthologs. Bioinformatic analysis reveals the presence of short conserved sequences within defined CRMs, representing gap and pair-rule transcription factor binding sites. One predicted binding site for the gap transcription factor KRUPPEL in the IAB5 CRM was found to be altered in Superabdominal (Sab) mutations. In Sab mutant flies, the third abdominal segment is transformed into a copy of the fifth abdominal segment. A model for KRUPPEL-mediated repression at this binding site is presented. These findings challenge our current understanding of the relationship between sequence evolution at the molecular level and functional activity of a CRM. While the overall sequence conservation at Drosophila CRMs is not distinctive from neighboring genomic regions, functionally critical transcription factor binding sites within embryonic enhancer CRMs are highly conserved. These results have implications for understanding mechanisms of gene expression during embryonic development, enhancer function, and the molecular evolution of eukaryotic regulatory modules.

AB Vinyl chloride (VC) is a human carcinogen and widespread priority pollutant. Here we report the first, to our knowledge, complete genome sequences of microorganisms able to respire VC, Dehalococcoides sp. strains VS and BAV1. Notably, the respective VC reductase encoding genes, vcrAB and bvcAB, were found embedded in distinct genomic islands (GEIs) with different predicted integration sites, suggesting that these genes were acquired horizontally and independently by distinct mechanisms. A comparative analysis that included two previously sequenced Dehalococcoides genomes revealed a contextually conserved core that is interrupted by two high plasticity regions (HPRs) near the Ori. These HPRs contain the majority of GEIs and strain-specific genes identified in the four Dehalococcoides genomes, an elevated number of repeated elements including insertion sequences (IS), as well as 91 of 96 rdhAB, genes that putatively encode terminal reductases in organohalide respiration. Only three core rdhA orthologous groups were identified, and only one of these groups is supported by synteny. The low number of core rdhAB, contrasted with the high rdhAB numbers per genome (up to 36 in strain VS), as well as their colocalization with GEIs and other signatures for horizontal transfer, suggests that niche adaptation via organohalide respiration is a fundamental ecological strategy in Dehalococccoides. This adaptation has been exacted through multiple mechanisms of recombination that are mainly confined within HPRs of an otherwise remarkably stable, syntenic, streamlined genome among the smallest of any free-living microorganism.

AB Formation of the radical precursor to trimer (T) during pyrolysis of polystyrene features a 1,5-hydrogen shift. However because 1,3-shift is so much slower, the sources of the less abundant dimer (D) and tetramer (Te) remain unclear. While we and others have proposed addition of small radicals to olefinic polymer end-groups as a route to oligomer precursor radicals, others recently suggested that such addition is also too slow and proposed a third alternative: 1,7-shift followed serially by 7,3-shift to give the precursor for D. Although considerable evidence suggests that 1,7-shift would be much slower than 1,5-shift, this alternate kinetic model assigned them as comparably rapid. We apply a computational method to predict initial product distributions based on estimated, and empirically varied, propagation rate constants for 1,x-shift, beta-scission, hydrogen transfer, and addition radical steps. The addition mechanism successfully predicted the relative amount of D but systematically underestimated Te. This deficiency could be removed by empirical inclusion of a small amount of 1,7-shift, although the other literature evidence still causes this to remain a questionable hypothesis.

AB The capability to conduct automated radiation-transport simulations of delayed-gamma emission spectra at discrete (line) energies created by the products of neutron fission and activation has been developed for MCNPX. To do so, the CINDER'90 isotopic transmutation code has been merged into MCNPX to seamlessly supply time-dependent, decay-chain atom densities for 3400 nuclides. A new dataset containing ENDF/B-VI emission-probability line data for 979 nuclides has been created for MCNPX, with the balance of the 3400 nuclides treated using existing 25-group emission spectra. Cumulative distribution sampling functions have been developed to accommodate line and multigroup emission data. Fission-product sampling for fissions induced by sub-20-MeV neutrons uses fission-yield data for thermal (E < 1 eV), fission-spectrum (1 eV <= E < 14 MeV), and high-energy (E >= 14 MeV) neutrons for isotopes of uranium, plutonium, thorium, americium, californium, curium, einsteinium, fermium, and neptunium. For higher-energy neutrons, LAHET, a physics package that is also a part of MCNPX, generates a list of residual nuclides. In Part II, we present simulation results for models based on experiments conducted by Fisher and Engle (1964) and Beddingfield and Cecil (1998) to validate the new capability. As will be seen therein, the MCNPX results are in good agreement with the measured data. Finally, in Part III we augment the Monte Carlo presentation with a transport-theory formulation to provide a succinct encapsulation of the relevant physics. The new MCNPX delayed-gamma development offers a powerful new tool for fission-related signature recognition. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB In Part I, we presented the theory for the MCNPX Monte Carlo delayed-gamma emission feature. This feature permits the automated execution of radiation transport simulations of delayed-gamma emission spectra at discrete (line) energies created by the products of neutron fission and activation. To illustrate and help validate the new capability, calculated delayed-gamma emissions are presented in Part II for a model based on the Fisher and Engle (1964) experiment involving (235)U irradiation by a Watt-fission neutron pulse. The simulated results are in good agreement with low-resolution measured data. Simulation results involving the Beddingfield and Cecil (1998) (235)U and (239)Pu thermal-neutron irradiation are also presented. The structure of the high-resolution emission signature obtained using MCNPX is seen to be in good agreement with their experimental counterparts. We also show an activation result for (60)Ni bombardment by 15-MeV neutrons. The simulation results help to illustrate the use and validity of the new MCNPX delayed-gamma capability.

AB Graphene, the single layer of hexagonally coordinated carbon, is a two-dimensional material with many unusual properties; its physical realization a few years ago has caused a storm of activities in the solid state physics and materials science communities. The intriguing "massless Dirac Fermion" character of its charge carriers renders graphene a unique study object in condensed matter physics, and we discuss how surface-related techniques such as photoemission, STM and LEED play a prominent role in these investigations. We report on experimental studies of the growth and electronic structure of epitaxial single and few layer graphene on silicon carbide. The unusual band structure of single layer graphene and its evolution as layers are added towards bulk graphite is studied. In the special case of the bilayer, the opening of a gap by inducing an asymmetry through the influence of doping is examined. Finally, the influence of many body processes on the spectral function is discussed on the basis of high resolution photoemission data. The discussion of these aspects gives a comprehensive overview of the electronic structure of graphene as examined by experiment. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Agricultural and forest waste products are abundant and low-cost biomass sources useful in renewable fuel energy and feedstock preparation. Hydrolysis of a major biomass component, hemicellulose, is accomplished by the action of endo-xylanases. Reaction products vary in composition and degree of polymerization as a function of both feedstock and the enzyme activities utilized, ranging from monomeric sugars to complex branched polysaccharides. The study herein describes heterologous expression in Aspergillus awamori of a beta beta-(1-4) endo-xylanase isolated from the whole-genome DNA sequence of A clavatus along with a comprehensive biochemical and functional analysis of the enzyme, including substrate preference and hydrolysis patterns. The A. clavatus xylanase promotes incomplete hydrolysis of xylan substrates resulting in xylobiose, xylotriose and xylotetraose. Incomplete degradation resulting in xylo-oligomers is appealing for functional foods as the beneficial effect of oligosaccharides on gastro-intestinal micro flora includes preventing proliferation of pathogenic intestinal bacteria and facilitating digestion and absorption of nutrients.

AB The type IVb pilus of the enteropathogenic bacteria Salmonella typhi is a major adhesion factor during the entry of this pathogen into gastrointestinal epithelial cells. Its target of adhesion is a stretch of 10 residues from the first extracellular domain of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). The crystal structure of the N-terminal 25 amino acid deleted S. typhi native PilS protein (Delta PilS), which makes the pilus, was determined at 1.9 angstrom resolution by the multiwavelength anomalous dispersion method. Also, the structure of the complex of ANIS and a target CFTR peptide, determined at 1.8 angstrom, confirms that residues 113-117 (NKEER) of CFTR are involved in binding with the pilin protein and gives us insight on the amino acids that are essential for binding. Furthermore, we have also explored the role of a conserved disulfide bridge in pilus formation. The subunit structure and assembly architecture are crucial for understanding pilus functions and designing suitable therapeutics against typhoid. Proteins 2009; 77:253-261. (C) 2009 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

AB Understanding the molecular pathways of plant cell wall biosynthesis and remodeling is central to interpreting biological mechanisms underlying plant growth and adaptation as well as leveraging that knowledge towards development of improved bioenergy feedstocks. Here, we report the application of shotgun MS/MS profiling to the proteome of Populus developing xylem. Nearly 6000 different proteins were identified from the xylem proteome. To identify low-abundance DNA-regulatory proteins from the developing xylem, a selective nuclear proteome profiling method was developed. Several putative transcription factors and chromatin remodeling proteins were identified using this method, such as NAC domain, CtCP-like and CHB3-SWI/SNF-related proteins. Public databases were mined to obtain information in support of subcellular localization, transcript-level expression and functional categorization of identified proteins. In addition to finding protein-level evidence of candidate cell wall biosynthesis genes from xylem (wood) tissue such as cellulose synthase, sucrose synthase and polygalacturonase, several other potentially new candidate genes in the cell wall biosynthesis pathway were discovered. Further application of such proteomics methods will aid in plant systems biology modeling efforts by enhancing the understanding not only of cell wall biosynthesis but also of other plant developmental and physiological pathways.

AB The third-generation synchrotron radiation (SR) facilities are storage ring-based facilities with many insertion devices and photon beamlines, and have low injection beam power, but extremely high stored beam power. The fourth-generation X-ray free electron laser (FEL) facilities are based on an electron Linac with a long undulator and have high injection beam power. Due to its electron and photon beam characteristics and modes of operation, storage ring and photon beamlines have unique safety aspects, which are the main subjects of this paper. The shielding design limits, operational modes and beam losses are reviewed. Shielding analysis (source terms and methodologies) and interlocked safety systems for storage ring and photon beamlines (including SR and gas bremsstrahlung) are described. Specific safety issues for storage ring top-off injection and FEL facilities are discussed. Operational safety programme elements, e.g. operation authorisation, commissioning, training and radiation measurements, for SR facilities are also presented.

AB The goal of this work is to provide an overview of a Radiation safety system (RSS) designed for protection from prompt radiation hazard at accelerator facilities. RSS design parameters, functional requirements and constraints are derived from hazard analysis and risk assessment undertaken in the design phase of the facility. The two main subsystems of a RSS are access control system (ACS) and radiation control system (RCS). In this text, a common approach to risk assessment, typical components of ACS and RCS, desirable features and general design principles applied to RSS are described.

AB Astronauts receive exposures to high-energy heavy ions from galactic cosmic radiation. Although high-energy heavy ions are mutagenic and carcinogenic, their mutagenic potency in epithelial cells, where most human cancers develop, is poorly understood. Mutations are a critical component of human cancer, and mutations involving autosomal loci predominate This study addresses the cytotoxic and mutagenic effects of I GeV/nucleon iron ions in mouse kidney epithelium. Mutant fractions were measured for an endogenous autosomal locus (Aprt) that detects all types of mutagenic events contributing to human cancer. Results for kidneys irradiated in situ are compared with results for kidney cells from the same strain exposed in vitro. The results demonstrate dose-dependent cell killing in vitro and for cells explanted 3-4 months postirradiation in situ, but in situ exposures were less likely to result in cell death than in vitro exposures. Prolonged incubation in situ (8-9 months) further attenuated cell killing at lower doses. Iron ions were mutagenic to cells in vitro and for irradiated kidneys. No sparing was seen for mutant frequency with a long incubation period in situ. In addition, the degree of mutation induction (relative increase over background) was similar for cells exposed in vitro or in situ. We speculate that the latent effects of iron-ion exposure contribute to the maintenance of an elevated mutation burden in an epithelial tissue. (C) 2009 by Radiation Research Society

AB Exposure to accelerated iron ions represents a significant health risk in the deep space environment because it induces mutations that can cause cancer. A mutation assay was used to determine the full spectrum of autosomal mutations induced by exposure to 2 Gy of 1 GeV/nucleon iron ions in intact kidney epithelium, and the results were compared with mutations induced in cells of a kidney epithelial cell line exposed in vitro. A molecular analysis for loss of heterozygosity (LOH) for polymorphic loci on chromosome 8, which harbors Aprt, demonstrated iron-ion induction of mitotic recombination, interstitial deletion, and discontinuous LOH events. Iron-ion-induced deletions were detected more readily with the in vitro assay, whereas discontinuous LOH was detected more readily in the intact kidney. The specific induction of discontinuous LOH in vivo suggests that this mutation pattern may serve as an indicator of genomic instability. Interestingly, the frequency of small intragenic events increased as a function of time after exposure, suggesting non-targeted effects. In total, the results demonstrate that I GeV/nucleon iron ions can elicit a variety of autosomal mutations and that the cellular microenvironment and the sampling time after exposure can influence the distribution of these mutations in epithelial cell populations.

AB Herein we demonstrate that high-resolution magic angle spinning (MAS) H-1 NMR can be used to profile the pathology of bone marrow rapidly and with minimal sample preparation. The spectral resolution obtained allows several metabolites to be analyzed quantitatively. The level of NMR-detectable metabolites in the epiphysis + metaphysis sections of mouse femur were significantly higher than that observed in the diaphysis of the same femur. The major metabolite damage to bone marrow resulting from either 3.0 Gy or 7.8 Gy of whole-body gamma radiation 4 days after exposure were (1) decreased total choline content, (2) increased fatty acids in bone marrow, and (3) decreased creatine content. These results suggest that the membrane choline phospholipid metabolism (MCPM) pathway and the fatty acid bibsynthesis pathway were altered as a result of radiation exposure. We also found that the metabolic damage induced by radiation in the epiphysis + metaphysis sections of mouse femur was higher than that of the diaphysis of the same femur. Traditional histopathology analysis was also carried out to correlate radiation damage with changes in metabolites. Importantly, the molecular information gleaned from high-resolution MAS H-1 NMR complements the pathology data. (C) 2009 by Radiation Research Society

AB Purpose: To combine dynamic contrast material-enhanced (DCE) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging with x-ray fluorescence microscopy (XFM) of mammary gland tissue samples from mice to identify the spatial distribution of gadolinium after intravenous injection.
Materials and Methods: C3(1) Sv-40 large T antigen transgenic mice (n = 23) were studied with institutional animal care and use committee approval. Twelve mice underwent DCE MR imaging after injection of gadodiamide, and gadolinium concentration-time curves were fit to a two-compartment pharmacokinetic model with the following parameters: transfer constant (K(trans)) and volume of extravascular extracellular space per unit volume of tissue (v(e)). Eleven mice received gadodiamide before XFM. These mice were sacrificed 2 minutes after injection, and frozen slices containing ducts distended with murine ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) were prepared for XFM. One mouse received saline and served as the control animal. Elemental gadolinium concentrations were measured in and around the ducts with DCIS. Hematoxylin-eosin-stained slices of mammary tissues were obtained after DCE MR imaging and XFM.
Results: Ducts containing DCIS were unambiguously identified on MR images. DCE MR imaging revealed gadolinium uptake along the length of ducts with DCIS, with an average K(trans) of 0.21 min(-1) +/- 0.14 (standard deviation) and an average v(e) of 0.40 +/- 0.16. XFM revealed gadolinium uptake inside ducts with DCIS, with an average concentration of 0.475 mmol/L +/- 0.380; the corresponding value for DCE MR imaging was 0.30 mmol/L +/- 0.13.
Conclusion: These results provide insight into the physiologic basis of contrast enhancement of DCIS lesions on DCE MR images: Gadolinium penetrates and collects inside neoplastic ducts. (C) RSNA, 2009

AB The analysis of many physical and engineering problems involves running complex computational models (simulation models, computer codes). With problems of this type, it is important to understand the relationships between the input variables (whose values are often imprecisely known) and the output. The goal of sensitivity analysis (SA) is to study this relationship and identify the most significant factors or variables affecting the results of the model. In this presentation, an improvement on existing methods for SA of complex computer models is described for use when the model is too computationally expensive for a standard Monte-Carlo analysis. In these situations, a meta-model or surrogate model can be used to estimate the necessary sensitivity index for each input. A sensitivity index is a measure of the variance in the response that is due to the uncertainty in an input. Most existing approaches to this problem either do not work well with a large number of input variables and/or they ignore the error involved in estimating a sensitivity index. Here, a new approach to sensitivity index estimation using meta-models and bootstrap confidence intervals is described that provides solutions to these drawbacks. Further, an efficient yet effective approach to incorporate this methodology into an actual SA is presented. Several simulated and real examples illustrate the utility of this approach. This framework can be extended to uncertainty analysis as well. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We present a portable pulsed-magnet system for x-ray studies of materials in high magnetic fields (up to 30 T). The apparatus consists of a split-pair of minicoils cooled on a closed-cycle cryostat, which is used for x-ray diffraction studies with applied field normal to the scattering plane. A second independent closed-cycle cryostat is used for cooling the sample to near liquid helium temperatures. Pulsed magnetic fields (similar to 1 ms in total duration) are generated by discharging a configurable capacitor bank into the magnet coils. Time-resolved scattering data are collected using a combination of a fast single-photon counting detector, a multichannel scaler, and a high-resolution digital storage oscilloscope. The capabilities of this instrument are used to study a geometrically frustrated system revealing strong magnetostrictive effects in the spin-liquid state. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

TI Optimal measurement strategies for effective suppression of drift errors
SO REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS
LA English
DT Article
ID ELECTRIC-DIPOLE MOMENT; SEARCH
AB Drifting of experimental setups with change in temperature or other environmental conditions is the limiting factor of many, if not all, precision measurements. The measurement error due to a drift is, in some sense, in-between random noise and systematic error. In the general case, the error contribution of a drift cannot be averaged out using a number of measurements identically carried out over a reasonable time. In contrast to systematic errors, drifts are usually not stable enough for a precise calibration. Here a rather general method for effective suppression of the spurious effects caused by slow drifts in a large variety of instruments and experimental setups is described. An analytical derivation of an identity, describing the optimal measurement strategies suitable for suppressing the contribution of a slow drift described with a certain order polynomial function, is presented. A recursion rule as well as a general mathematical proof of the identity is given. The effectiveness of the discussed method is illustrated with an application of the derived optimal scanning strategies to precise surface slope measurements with a surface profiler.

AB Preferential flow commonly observed in unsaturated soils allows rapid movement of solute from the ground surface or vadose zone to the groundwater, bypassing a significant volume of unsaturated soil and increasing the risk of groundwater contamination. A variety of evidence indicates that complex preferential flow patterns observed from fields are fractals. This paper discusses a macroscopic relationship for modeling preferential flow in the vadose zone. Conceptually, the flow domain can be divided into active and inactive regions. Flow occurs preferentially in the active region (characterized by fractals), and inactive region is simply bypassed. The portion of the active region was found to be a power function of saturation. The validity of this macroscopic relationship is demonstrated by its consistency with field observations and the related numerical experiments.

AB We have studied the atomic structures of the nucleus of a [10 (1) over bar1]((1) over bar 012) twin in Mg by atomistic simulations using density function theory and an empirical potential. The twinning mechanism for ((1) over bar 012) twins is described. The results show that the nucleus consists of one partial dislocation with a Burgers vector of -50/107[10 (1) over bar1] together with multiple twinning dislocations (TDs) with a Burgers vector of 1/15[10 (1) over bar1]. The minimum, stable nucleus involves eight TDs and one partial dislocation, corresponding to a thickness of 17 crystallographic planes. Published by Elsevier Ltd. on behalf of Acta Materialia Inc.

ID MICROSTRUCTURE
AB The effect of friction stir processing (FSP) on the fatigue life of a cast Al-7Si-0.6 Mg alloy at stress ratios of R = 0 and R = - 1 was evaluated. Two types of specimen geometry were used for the FSPed condition, through thickness processed and partial thickness processed. At R = 0, the microstructural refinement enhanced the fatigue life by a factor of 15, whereas at R = - 1 the improvement in fatigue life was 5-fold. In light of these observations, various closure mechanisms were examined. (C) 2009 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Influence of Sedimentary Bedding on Reactive Transport Parameters under

AB Moisture and contaminant transport in partially saturated, heterogeneous, layered sediments is typically anisotropic. Solute transport parameters, including dispersivity and the adsorption coefficient, and the modeled concentration of reactive minerals may depend on the direction of flow with respect to sedimentary layering. Reaction rates, in contrast, should be independent of flow direction. We determined the influence of flow direction on transport parameters for nonreactive (Br(-)) and reactive (cobalt ethylenediamineretraacetic acid [Co(II)EDTA(2-)]) solutes under partially saturated conditions by imposing flow either parallel to or across sedimentary bedding in I I intact sediment cores of various textures. Higher dispersivity of nonreactive tracers in parallel-bed cores suggested fluid channeling through permeable layers, while low-conductivity layers dampened channeling in cross-bed samples. Rates of transformation of Co(II)EDTA(2-) into Co(III)EDTA(-) and of disassociation of Co(2+) and EDTA(4-) were modeled assuming that the reaction rates were independent of the flow direction. The concentration of Mn oxides that was responsible for the transformation reaction was dependent on the flow direction, which governed the extent of contact between the solution and the solid phase. Similarly, the adsorption constants of Co(II)EDTA(2-) and Co(III)EDTA(-) were dependent on the flow direction but were also unique for each experiment. The modeled concentration of reactive minerals was the most sensitive parameter describing the reaction and transformation of Co(II)EDTA(2-).

AB A round robin for the performance of roll-to-roll coated flexible large-area polymer solar-cell modules involving 18 different laboratories in Northern America, Europe and Middle East is presented. The study involved the performance measurement of the devices at one location (Riso DTU) followed by transportation to a participating laboratory for performance measurement and return to the starting location (Riso DTU) for re-measurement of the performance. It was found possible to package polymer solar-cell modules using a flexible plastic barrier material in such a manner that degradation of the devices played a relatively small role in the experiment that has taken place over 4 months. The method of transportation followed both air-mail and surface-mail paths. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The quaternary aluminium hydrides SrAlGeH and BaAlGeH were synthesized from either hydrogenating the intermetallic AlB2-type precursors SrAlGe and BaAlGe or reacting SrH2 with a mixture of Al and Ge in the presence of pressurized hydrogen. Their structures were characterized by X-ray and neutron powder diffraction of the corresponding deuterides. The compounds crystallize with the trigonal SrAlSiH structure type (space group P3m1, Z= 1, a = 4.2435(2) and 4.3450(2) angstrom, c = 4.9710(3) and 5.2130(4) angstrom for SrAlGeH and BaAlGeH, respectively) and feature a two-dimensional polyanion [AlGeH](2-) which represents a corrugated hexagon layer built from three-bonded Al and Ge atoms. H is terminally attached to Al. Polyanions [AlGeH](2-) are electron precise and, according to electronic structure calculations, the quaternary hydrides display band gaps with sizes between 0.7 and 0.8 eV. Infrared and inelastic neutron scattering spectroscopy show Al-H stretching and bending mode frequencies at around 1250 and 870 cm(-1), respectively. SrAlGeH and BaAlGeH are thermally stable up to at least 500 degrees C. When exposed to air the hydrides decompose rapidly to amorphous, orange colored materials. (C) 2009 Elsevier Masson SAS.

AB Dissolution procedures were developed to control the number of surface layers removed, in an attempt to achieve depth resolved analysis by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). NIST 612 glass was chosen because it is a homogeneous material with many elements at interesting concentrations. similar to 50 ppm. Varying dissolution time and HF concentration resulted in the reproducible removal of SiO(2) layers as thin as 70 angstrom deep. Dissolved trace metals were determined after dilution by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) with a magnetic sector instrument. The amount removed was determined from the concentration of a major element, Ca. With the exception of Zn, trace metal concentrations agreed reasonably well with their certified values for removal depths of 500, 300 and 150 angstrom. Zinc concentration was significantly high in all dissolutions indicating either a contamination problem or that Zn is removed at a faster rate than Ca. For the dissolutions that removed 70 angstrom of SiO(2), Cr, Mn, Co, Sr, Cd, Ce, Dy, Er, Yb and U recovery results agreed with their certified values (similar to 50 ppm); Ti, As, Mo, Ba. and Th could not be determined because net intensities were below 3 sigma of the blank; and measured concentrations for Cu, Pb and Zn were well above the certified values.

AB Laser ablation has been combined with dual tunable diode laser absorption spectrometry to measure (152)Gd:(160)Gd isotope ratios in micron-size particles. The diode lasers are tuned to specific isotopes in two different atomic transitions at 405.9 nm ((152)Gd) and 413.4 nm ((160)Gd) and directed collinearly through the laser ablation plume, separated on a diffraction grating, and detected with photodiodes to monitor transient absorption signals on a shot-by-shot basis. The method has been characterized first using Gd metal foil and then with particles of GdCl(3)center dot xH(2)O as binary and ternary mixtures with (152)Gd:(160)Gd isotope ratios ranging from 0.01 to 0.43. These particulate mixtures have been diluted with Columbia River sediment powder (SRM 435013) to simulate environmental samples and we show the method is capable of detecting a few highly-enriched particles in the presence of a > 100-fold excess of low-enrichment particles, even when the Gd-bearing particles are a minor component (0.08%) in the SRM powder and widely dispersed (1178 particles detected in 800,000 ablation laser shots). The implications for monitoring (235)U:(238)U enrichment ratios in airborne particle samples, as related to the nuclear industry, are discussed. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Recently, we experimentally demonstrated that rectangular mesa structures of intrinsic Josephson junctions (IJJ) in Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d (Bi2212) can be used as a compact solid-state generator of continuous, coherent and polarized terahertz (THz) radiation. In the present work, we will exhibit tall mesas (over 600 junctions) which were fabricated using UV lithography, e-beam lithography with photoresist and e-beam lithography with a Ti selective etching technique. We will present measurements of the c-axis resistance as a function of temperature and of current-voltage characteristics of THz emitting mesas with lateral sizes ranging from 30 x 300 to 100 x 300 mu m(2). Furthermore, we will discuss the dependence of the characteristics of the mesa structures on the oxygen doping level of the Bi2212 crystals. We will also experimentally show that the voltage-frequency relation of the ac Josephson effect has to match the cavity resonance for successful emission.

AB A summary of the workshop entitled 'Angle-Resolved XPS: The Current Status and Future Prospects for Angle-resolved XPS of Nano and Subnano Films' is given, which was held at the Riviera Maya, Mexico, 26-30 March 2007, under the main sponsorship of the International Union for Vacuum Science, Technique and Applications (IUVSTA). Angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ARXPS) can provide detailed chemical as well as depth profile information about the near-surface composition of materials and thin films. This workshop was held to review the present status and level of understanding of Angle-resolved XPS, and to stimulate discussions leading to a deeper understanding of current problems and new solutions. The main goal of the workshop was to find better ways to perform experiments and, very importantly, better ways to extract information from the experimental data. This report contains summaries of presentations and discussions that were held in sessions entitled 'Basics and Present Limits of ARXPS', the Analysis of ARXPS Data, Applications of ARXPS, Equipment for ARXPS, and Future Developments in ARXPS'. There were 33 participants at the workshop. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB Microfabricated silicon microcantilevers coated with gold on one side have been used as working electrode in a three-electrode electrochemical arrangement. In addition to electrochemical current, cantilever bending has been used as a signal for monitoring electrode reactions on the cantilever surface. The microcantilever bending was measured by an optical beam deflection method as the surface potential was scanned and electrochemical reactions occurred on the surface. The microcantilever bending due to differential surface stress was used to sense Pb and Cu using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and linear sweep stripping voltammetry (LSSV). (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB Optimization for complex systems in engineering often involves the use of expensive computer simulation. By combining statistical emulation using treed Gaussian processes with pattern search optimization, we are able to perform robust local optimization more efficiently and effectively than when using either method alone. Our approach is based on the augmentation of local search patterns with location sets generated through improvement prediction over the input space. We further develop a computational framework for asynchronous parallel implementation of the optimization algorithm. We demonstrate our methods on two standard test problems and our motivating example of calibrating a circuit device simulator.

AB Risk assessment of rare natural hazards, such as large volcanic block and ash or pyroclastic flows, is addressed. Assessment is approached through a combination of computer modeling, statistical modeling, and extreme-event probability computation. A computer model of the natural hazard is used to provide the needed extrapolation to unseen parts of the hazard space. Statistical modeling of the available data is needed to determine the initializing distribution for exercising the computer model. In dealing with rare events, direct simulations involving the computer model are prohibitively expensive. The solution instead requires a combination of adaptive design of computer model approximations (emulators) and rare event simulation. The techniques that are developed for risk assessment are illustrated on a test-bed example involving volcanic flow.

TI Assessment of Barotrauma from Rapid Decompression of Depth-Acclimated
Juvenile Chinook Salmon Bearing Radiotelemetry Transmitters
SO TRANSACTIONS OF THE AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY
LA English
DT Article
ID SURVIVAL; BUOYANCY; BEHAVIOR; FISH
AB This study investigated the mortality of and injury to juvenile Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha exposed to simulated pressure changes associated with passage through a large Kaplan hydropower turbine. Mortality and injury varied depending on whether a fish was carrying a transmitter, the method of transmitter implantation, the depth of acclimation, and the size of the fish. Juvenile Chinook salmon implanted with radio transmitters were more likely than those without to die or sustain injuries during simulated turbine passage. Gastric transmitter implantation resulted in higher rates of injury and mortality than surgical implantation. Mortality and injury increased with increasing pressure of acclimation. Injuries were more common in subyearling fish than in yearling fish. Gas emboli in the gills and internal hemorrhaging were the major causes of mortality. Rupture of the swim bladder and emphysema in the fins were also common. This research makes clear that the exposure of juvenile Chinook salmon bearing radiotelemetry transmitters to simulated turbine pressures with a nadir of 8-19 kPa can result in barotrauma, leading to immediate or delayed mortality. The study also identified sublethal barotrauma injuries that may increase susceptibility to predation. These findings have significant implications for many studies that use telemetry devices to estimate the survival and behavior of juvenile salmon as they pass through large Kaplan turbines typical of those within the Columbia River hydropower system. Our results indicate that estimates of turbine passage survival for juvenile Chinook salmon obtained with radiotelemetry devices may be negatively biased.

AB Soft X-ray tomography (SXT) is ideally suited to imaging sub-cellular architecture and organization, particularly in eukaryotic cells. SXT is similar in concept to the well-established medical diagnostic technique computed axial tomography (CAT), except SXT is capable of imaging with a spatial resolution of 50 nm, or better. In SXT, cells are imaged using photons from a region of the spectrum known as the 'water window'. This results in quantitative, high-contrast images of intact, fully hydrated cells without the need to use contrast-enhancing agents. The cells that are visualized are in close-to-native, fully functional state. The utility of SXT has recently been enhanced by the development of high numerical aperture cryogenic light microscopy for correlated imaging. This multi-modal approach allows labelled molecules to be localized in the context of a high-resolution 3-D tomographic reconstruction of the cell.

AB We have devised a technique for spectral imaging using accurate ab initio electron energy loss near edge structure (ELNES) data and function field visualization. The technique is initially applied to a planar defect model in Si with different ring structures and no broken bonds where experimental probes are severely limited. The same model with B doping is also considered. It is shown that specific deviations in different energy ranges of the ELNES spectra are correlated with different structural components of the models. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved,

AB The delivery of calcium polysulfide (CPS) to the vadose zone using foam and the immobilization of Cr(VI) via reduction by the foam-delivered CPS was studied in a series of batch and column experiments, Batch tests were conducted to select the foam-generating CPS-surfactant solutions, to determine the solution foamability and the reducing potential of CPS-containing foams, and to study the influence of foam quality, surfactant concentration, and CPS concentration on foam stability. Column experiments were performed to test the foam delivery of CPS to sediments under conditions similar to a field vadose zone, to study the foam transport and interaction with sediments, and to determine the extent of Cr(VI) immobilization using this novel delivery approach. Foams containing CPS with high reducing potential were prepared based on the batch tests. Sediment reduction by foam-delivered CPS was observed in the columns. Massive mobilization of Cr(VI) from sediments occurred when CPS was delivered in aqueous solution. The Cr(VI) mobilization was minimized in column tests when CPS was delivered by foams, resulting in significant Cr(VI) in situ immobilization. These results demonstrated for the first time that foam injection can be successfully used for CPS delivery to the vadose zone and that foam-delivered CPS can be applied for Cr(VI) immobilization in contaminated vadose zones.

AB There is growing awareness of the complexity of potential reaction pathways and the associated solid-phase transformations during the reduction of Fe (hydr)oxides, especially ferrihydrite. An important observation in static and advective-dominated systems is that microbially produced Fe(II) accelerates Ostwald ripening of ferrihydrite, thus promoting the formation of thermodynamically more stable ferric phases (lepidocrocite and goethite) and, at higher Fe(II) surface loadings, the precipitation of magnetite; high Fe(II) levels can also lead to green rust formation, and with high carbonate levels siderite may also be formed. This study expands this emerging conceptual model to a diffusion-dominated system that mimics an idealized micropore of a ferrihydrite-coated soil aggregate undergoing reduction. Using a novel diffusion cell, coupled with micro-x-ray fluorescence and absorption spectroscopies, we determined that diffusion-controlled gradients In Fe((aq))(2+) result in a complex array of spatially distributed secondary mineral phases. At the diffusive pore entrance, where Fe(2+) concentrations are highest, green rust and magnetite are the dominant secondary Fe (hydr)oxides (30 mol% Fe each). At intermediate distances from the inlet, green rust is not observed and the proportion of magnetite decreases from approximately 30 to <10%. Across this same transect, the proportion of goethite increases from undetectable up to >50%. At greater distances from the advective-diffusive boundary, goethite is the dominant phase, comprising between 40 and 95% of the Fe. In the presence of magnetite, lepidocrocite forms as a transient-Intermediate phase during ferrihydrite-to-goethite conversion; in the absence of magnetite, conversion to goethite is more limited. These experimental observations, coupled with results of reactive transport modeling, confirm the conceptual model and illustrate the potential Importance of diffusion-generated concentration gradients in dissolved Fe(2+) on the fate of ferrihydrite during reduction in structured soils.

TI A Quasilinear Model for Solute Transport under Unsaturated Flow
SO VADOSE ZONE JOURNAL
LA English
DT Article
ID STEADY FLOWS; CONVECTIVE TRANSPORT; DISPERSION; SOILS; SET
AB We developed an analytical solution for solute transport under steady-state, two-dimensional, unsaturated flow and transport conditions for the investigation of high-level radioactive waste disposal. The two-dimensional, unsaturated flow problem is treated using the quasilinear flow method for a system with homogeneous material properties. Dispersion is modeled as isotropic and Is proportional to the effective hydraulic conductivity. This leads to a quasilinear form for the transport problem in terms of a scalar potential that is analogous to the Kirchhoff potential for quasilinear flow. The solutions for both flow and transport scalar potentials take the form of Fourier series. The particular solution given here is for two sources of flow, with one source containing a dissolved solute. The solution method may easily be extended, however, for any combination of flow and solute sources under steady-state conditions. The analytical results for multidimensional solute transport problems, which previously could only be solved numerically, also offer an additional way to benchmark numerical solutions.

AB This research identified toxin detection limits using the variable fluorescence of naturally occurring microalgae in source drinking water for five chemical toxins with different molecular structures and modes of toxicity. The five chemicals investigated were atrazine, Diuron (R), paraquat, methyl parathion, and potassium cyanide. Absolute threshold sensitivities of the algae for detection of the toxins in unmodified source drinking water were measured. Differential kinetics between the rate of action of the toxins and natural changes in algal physiology, such as diurnal photoinhibition, are significant enough that effects of the toxin can be detected and distinguished from the natural variance. This is true even for physiologically impaired algae where diminished photosynthetic capacity may arise from uncontrollable external factors such as nutrient starvation. Photoinhibition induced by high levels of solar radiation is a predictable and reversible phenomenon that can be dealt with using a period of dark adaption of 30 minutes or more. Water Environ.

ID MECHANICAL-PROPERTIES; CELL-WALLS; HARDNESS; MODULUS; DENSITY
AB The effects of thermomechanical refining pressures, varying from 2 to 18 bars, on the cell-wall properties of refined wood fibers of a 54-year-old loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) with reference to both juvenile (JW) and mature wood (MW) were investigated using nanoindentation and atomic force microscopy. The results of this study indicate that refining pressure plays a significant role in the physical damage sustained by refined wood fibers. No obvious damage was observed in the cell walls of MW fibers refined at 2 and 4 bar. Nanocracks (< 500 nm in width) were found in fibers refined at pressures in the range of 2-12 bar for JW and 6-12 bar for MW, and micro cracks (> 3,000 nm in width) were found in both MW and JW fibers subjected to a refining pressure of 14 and 18 bar. The micro damage to the fibers refined at higher pressures was more severe inside the lumen than on the surface of the fibers, and the lumen or S(3) layer was significantly damaged. The elastic modulus, hardness, and creep resistance of MW fibers were higher than those of the JW fibers subjected to the same refining-pressure conditions. The elastic modulus and hardness decreased, whereas nanoindentation creep increased, with increasing refining pressure. This study also suggests that lower refining pressures (< 4 bar) and higher pressures (> 14 bar for MW and > 12 bar for JW) should be avoided in the manufacture of fiberboards and wood fiber-polymer composites, because of the lower aspect ratio of the fiber bundles, shorter length of the fibers and fines, and severe damages to the fiber cell walls.

AB Background: Knowledge about signaling pathways is typically compiled based on data gathered using different cell lines. This approach implicitly assumes that the cell line dependence is not important. However, different cell lines do not always respond to a particular stimulus in the same way, and lack of coherent data collected from closely related cellular systems can be detrimental to the efforts to understand the regulation of biological processes. To address this issue, we created a clone library of human mammary epithelial (HME) cells that expresses different levels of HER2 and HER3 receptors in combination with endogenous EGFR/HER1. Using our clone library, we have quantified the receptor activation patterns and systematically tested the validity of the existing hypotheses about the interaction patterns between HER1-3 receptors.
Results: Our study identified HER2 as the dominant dimerization partner for both EGFR and HER3. Contrary to earlier suggestions, we find that lateral interactions with HER2 do not lead to strong transactivation between EGFR and HER3, i.e., EGFR activation and HER3 activation are only weakly linked in HME cells. We also find that observed weak transactivation is uni-directional where stimulation of EGFR leads to HER3 activation whereas HER3 stimulation does not activate the EGFR. Repeating our experiments at lower cell confluency established that cell confluency is not a major factor in the observed interaction patterns. We have also quantified the dependence of the kinetics of Erk and Akt activation on different HER receptors. We found that HER3 signaling makes the strongest contribution to Akt activation and that, stimulation of either EGFR or HER3 leads to significant Erk activation.
Conclusion: Our study shows that clone cell libraries can be a powerful resource in systems biology research by making it possible to differentiate between various hypotheses in a consistent cellular background. Using our constructed clone library we profiled the cell signaling patterns to establish the role of HER2 in the crosstalk between EGFR and HER3 receptors in HME cells. Our results for HME cells show that the weak linkage between EGFR and HER3 pathways can lead to distinct downstream cellular signaling patterns in response to the ligands of these two receptors.

AB The morphology of metal nanoparticles supported on oxide substrates plays an important role in heterogeneous catalysis and in the nucleation of thin films. For platinum evaporated onto SrTiO3 (0 0 1) and vacuum annealed we find an unexpected growth formation of Pt nanoparticles that aggregate into clusters without coalescence. This hierarchical nanoparticle morphology with an enhanced surface-to-volume ratio for Pt is analyzed by grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The nanoparticle constituents of the clusters measure 2-4 nm in size and are nearly contiguously spaced where the average edge-to-edge spacing is less than 1 nm. These particles make up the clusters, which are 10-50 nm in diameter and are spaced on the order of 100 nm apart. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The gastrointestinal tract of mammals is inhabited by hundreds of distinct species of commensal microorganisms that exist in a mutualistic relationship with the host. How commensal microbiota influence the host immune system is poorly understood. We show here that colonization of the small intestine of mice with a single commensal microbe, segmented filamentous bacterium (SFB), is sufficient to induce the appearance of CD4(+) T helper cells that produce IL-17 and IL-22 (Th17 cells) in the lamina propria. SFB adhere tightly to the surface of epithelial cells in the terminal ileum of mice with Th17 cells but are absent from mice that have few Th17 cells. Colonization with SFB was correlated with increased expression of genes associated with inflammation and antimicrobial defenses and resulted in enhanced resistance to the intestinal pathogen Citrobacter rodentium. Thus, manipulation of this commensal-regulated pathway may provide new opportunities for enhancing mucosal immunity and treating autoimmune disease.

AB Cometary material and pristine interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) best resemble the unaltered components from which our solar system was built because they have remained largely unaltered in a cold undisturbed environment since accretion in the outer protoplanetary disk. IDPs might supply more primitive assemblages for laboratory analysis than Stardust samples from comet 81P/Wild 2 but their individual provenances are typically unknown. We speculate that some IDPs collected by NASA in April 2003 may be associated with comet 26P/Grigg-Skjellerup because their particularly pristine character coincides with the collection period that was predicted to show an enhanced flux of particles from this Jupiter-family comet. Some IDPs from this collection contain the most primitive assembly of interstellar matter found to date including an unusually high abundance of presolar grains and very isotopically anomalous and disordered organic matter as well as fine-grained carbonates and an amphibole associated with a GEMS-like object (glass with embedded metals and sulfides) that potentially imply formation in a nebular rather than planetary environment. The two most primitive IDPs may contain assemblages of molecular cloud material at the percent level which is supported by the presence of four rare O-17-depleted presolar silicate grains possibly of supernova(e) origin within one similar to 70 mu m(2)-sized IDP and the close association of a Group 1 Mg-rich olivine from a low-mass red giant star with a carbonaceous nano-globule of potentially interstellar origin. Our study together with observations of comet 9P/Tempel 1 during the Deep Impact experiment and 81P/Wild 2 dust analyses reveal some compositional variations and many similarities among three Jupiter-family comets. Specifically carbonates and primitive organic matter or amorphous carbon were widespread in the comet-forming regions of the outer protoplanetary disk and not all comets contain as much inner solar system material as has been inferred for comet 81P/Wild 2. The bulk and hotspot hydrogen and nitrogen isotopic anomalies as well as the carbon Raman characteristics of the organic matter in IDPs and the most primitive meteorites are remarkably similar. This implies that the same mixture of molecular cloud material had been transported inward into the meteorite-forming regions of the solar system. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Nutrient uptake capacity is an important parameter in modeling nutrient uptake by plants. Researchers commonly assume that uptake capacity measured for a species can be used across sites. We tested this assumption by measuring the nutrient uptake capacity of intact roots of Engelmann spruce (Picea engelmanni Parry) and subalpine fir (Abies lasiocarpa (Hook.) Nutt.) at Loch Vale Watershed and Fraser Experimental Forest in the Rocky Mountains of central Colorado. Roots still attached to the tree were exposed to one of three concentrations of nutrient solutions for time periods ranging from 1 to 96 h, and solutions were analyzed for ammonium, nitrate, calcium, magnesium, and potassium. Surprisingly, the two species were indistinguishable in nutrient uptake within site for all nutrients (P > 0.25), but uptake rates differed by site. In general, nutrient uptake was higher at Fraser (P = 0.01, 0.15, 0.03, and 0.18 for NH4+, NO3-, Ca2+, and K+, respectively), which is west of the Continental Divide and has lower atmospheric deposition of N than Loch Vale. Mean uptake rates by site for ambient solution concentrations were 0.12 mu mol NH4+ g(fwt)(-1) h(-1), 0.02 mu mol NO3- g(fwt)(-1) h(-1), 0.21 mu mol Ca2+ g(fwt)(-1) h(-1), and 0.01 mu mol Mg2+ g(fwt)(-1) h(-1) at Loch Vale, and 0.21 mu mol NH4+ g(fwt)(-1) h(-1), 0.04 mu mol NO3- g(fwt)(-1) h(-1), 0.51 mu mol Ca2+ g(fwt)(-1) h(-1), and 0.07 mu mol Mg2+ g(fwt)(-1) h(-1) at Fraser. The importance of site conditions in determining uptake capacity should not be overlooked when parameterizing nutrient uptake models.
We also characterized the root morphology of these two species and compared them to other tree species we have measured at various sites in the northeastern USA. Engelmann spruce and subalpine fir were indistinguishable in specific root length and diameter distribution, while most of the other 10 species had statistically distinct diameter distributions across five diameter classes < 2 mm. Based on specific root length, subalpine fir and Engelmann spruce had significantly coarser roots than red pine (Pinus resinosa Soland), yellow birch (Betula allegheniensis Britt.). sugar maple (Acer saccharum Marsh.), chestnut oak (Quercus prinus L.), black cherry (Prunus serotina Ehrh.), and red spruce (Picea rubens Sarg.). White oak (Quercus alba L.), balsam fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.), American beech (Fagus grandifolia Ehrh.) and loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) were intermediate in SRL (indistinguishable from Engelmann spruce and subalpine fir by ANOVA). Species that differ more in physiology and morphology than the two species we compared would likely show dissimilar uptake characteristics even at the same site. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB A common challenge with studies of proteins in vitro is determining which constructs and conditions are most physiologically relevant. sigma(54) activators are proteins that undergo regulated assembly to form an active ATPase ring that enables transcription by sigma(54)-polymerase. Previous studies of AAA(+) ATPase domains from sigma(54) activators have shown that some are heptamers, while others are hexamers. Because active oligomers assemble from off-state dimers, it was thought that even-numbered oligomers should dominate, and that heptamer formation would occur when individual domains of the activators, rather than the intact proteins, were studied. Here we present results from electrospray ionization mass spectrometry experiments characterizing the assembly states of intact NtrC4 (a sigma(54) activator from Aquifex aeolicus, an extreme thermophile), as well as its ATPase domain alone, and regulatory-ATPase and ATPase-DNA binding domain combinations. We show that the full-length and activated regulatory-ATPase proteins form hexamers, whereas the isolated ATPase domain, unactivated regulatory-ATPase, and ATPase-DNA binding domain form heptamers. Activation of the N-terminal regulatory domain is the key factor stabilizing the hexamer form of the ATPase, relative to the heptamer. (c) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We report a "top-down" method that uses mainly duplexes' global orientations and overall molecular dimension and shape restraints, which were extracted from experimental NMR and small-angle X-ray scattering data, respectively, to determine global architectures of RNA molecules consisting of mostly A-form-like duplexes. The method is implemented in the G2G (from global measurement to global structure) toolkit of programs. We demonstrate the efficiency and accuracy of the method by determining the global structure of a 71-nt RNA using experimental data. The backbone root-mean-square deviation of the ensemble of the calculated global structures relative to the X-ray crystal structure is 3.0 +/- 0.3 angstrom using the experimental data and is only 2.5 +/- 0.2 angstrom for the three duplexes that were orientation restrained during the calculation. The global structure simplifies interpretation of multidimensional nuclear Overhauser spectra for high-resolution structure determination. The potential general application of the method for RNA structure determination is discussed. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE T(m) (Melting temperature); Nucleotides; Biosensor; Fluorescence
AB Biosensors are DNA probes that form a stem-and-loop structure. When the biosensor binds to the complementary nucleic acid target, it undergoes a conformational transition that enables them to fluoresce brightly. Thermodynamic properties such as melting temperature (T(m)) and free energy (Delta G) can to predict computationally the hybridization. The DNA denaturation temperature, also called the DNA melting temperature, is the temperature at which half of the DNA molecules are hybridized in double-helical structures, and half remain unhybridized. T(m) and Delta G yield information about the stability of the duplex. We modeled a biosensor with a sequence in the middle of the two primers that corresponds to the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex in PCR solution conditions with AMPLITAQ. The hybridization thermodynamic properties were computed using a software package called the Oligonucleotide Modeling Platform (OMP; DNA Software, Inc.). The thermal denaturation and thermal transition profiles showed a melting temperature of 62 degrees C. We obtain a theoretical description of DNA denaturation by calculating the melting temperature of the complex. Our results are in good agreement with those obtained experimentally.

DT Article
DE Direct photon; jet quenching; QGP
AB Direct photon production in minimum bias d + Cu and d + Au and central Cu + Cu and Au + Au collisions at center-of-mass energies root s = 62.4 GeV and 200 GeV at RHIC is systematically investigated. We study the jet quenching effect, the medium-induced photon bremsstrahlung and jet-photon conversion in the hot QGP. We account for known cold nuclear matter effects, such as the isospin effect, the Cronin effect, shadowing and cold nuclear matter energy loss. It is shown that at high p(T) the nuclear modification factor for direct photons R-AA(gamma) (pT) < 1 is dominated by cold nuclear matter effects and there is no evidence for large cross-section amplification due to medium-induced photon bremsstrahlung and jet-photon conversion in the medium. Comparison of numerical simulations to experimental data also rules out large Cronin enhancement and incoherent photonemission in the QGP but the error bars in the current experimental data cannot provide further constraints on the magnitudes of other nuclear matter effects.

AB We study control of the temporal profile of the local electric field in the vicinity of a small doped semiconductor or metal nanostructure. Unlike in the case of control in a gas or liquid phase, the collective response of electrons in the nanostructure may significantly enhance different frequency components of the external field. This enhancement strongly depends on the geometry of the nanostructure and can substantially modify the temporal profile of the local field. The changes in the amplitude and phase of the local field are studied using linear response theory within the random phase approximation. The inverse problem of finding the external electromagnetic field to generate an arbitrary target temporal profile of the local field, including the time-dependent polarization of the field, is considered and solved. We systematically study the pulse enhancement and shape distortion effects for a set of control pulses of various shapes.

AB While the means to selectively excite a single vibrational mode using ultrafast pulse shaping are well established, the subsequent problem of selectively exciting multiple vibrational modes simultaneously has been largely neglected. The coherent control of multiple vibrational excitations has applications in control of chemistry, chemical detection and molecular vibrational quantum information processing. Using simulations and experiments, we demonstrate that multiple vibrational modes can be selectively excited with the concurrent suppression of multiple interfering modes by orders of magnitude. While the mechanism of selectivity is analogous to that of single mode selectivity, the interferences required to select multiple modes require complicated non-intuitive pulse trains. Additionally, we show that selective detection can be achieved by the optimal pulse shape, even when the nature of the interfering species is varied, suggesting that optimized detection should be practical in real world applications. Experimental measurements of the multiplex coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectra (CARS) and CARS decay times of toluene, acetone, cis-stilbene and nitromethane liquids are reported, along with optimizations attempting to selectively excite nitromethane in a mixture of the four solvents. The experimental implementation exhibits a smaller degree of signal to background enhancement than predicted, which is primarily attributed to the single objective optimization methodology and not to fundamental limitations.

AB We search for a light Higgs boson A(0) in the radiative decay Upsilon(3S) -> gamma A(0), A(0) -> tau(+) tau(-), tau(+) -> e(+) nu(e)(nu) over bar (tau) or tau(+) -> mu(+) nu(mu)(nu) over bar (tau) . The data sample contains 122 X 10(6) Upsilon(3S) events recorded with the BABAR detector. We find no evidence for a narrow structure in the studied tau(+) tau(-) invariant mass region of 4.03 < m(tau+ tau-) < 10: 10 GeV= c(2). We exclude at the 90% confidence level (C.L.) a low-mass Higgs boson decaying to tau(+) tau(-) with a product branching fraction B(Upsilon(3S) -> A(0)) B(A(0) -> tau(+) tau(-)) > (1.5 - 16) X 10(-5) across the m(tau+ tau-) range. We also set a 90% C. L. upper limit on the tau(+) tau(-) decay of the eta(b) at B(eta(b) -> tau(+) tau(-)) < 8%.

ID HIGH-PRESSURE SYNTHESIS
AB We perform first-principles density functional calculations on a newly discovered tantalum nitride with an orthorhombic U(2)S(3) structure to assess its thermodynamic and mechanical stabilities. Our random search unveils a tetragonal Ta(2)N(3) structure that is energetically more favorable than an orthorhombic Ta(2)N(3) at zero pressure. We predict that the tetragonal Ta(2)N(3) transforms into the orthorhombic phase above a relatively low pressure of 7.7 GPa. Single-crystal elastic constant calculations reveal that orthorhombic Ta(2)N(3) is mechanically unstable because of a negative c(66). Our calculations suggest that minor oxygen substitution for nitrogen plays an important role in stabilizing the orthorhombic Ta(2)N(3) structure.

AB We characterize a novel orthorhombic phase (gamma) of NaAlH4, discovered using first-principles molecular dynamics, and discuss its relevance to the dehydrogenation mechanism. This phase is close in energy to the known low-temperature structure and becomes the stabler phase above 320 K, thanks to a larger vibrational entropy associated with AlH4 rotational modes. The structural similarity of gamma-NaAlH4 to alpha-Na3AlH6 suggests it acts as a key intermediate during hydrogen release. Findings are consistent with recent experiments recording an unknown phase during dehydrogenation.

AB We present first-principles calculations of many-electron effects on the optical response of graphene, bilayer graphene, and graphite employing the GW-Bethe Salpeter equation approach. We find that resonant excitons are formed in these two-dimensional semimetals. The resonant excitons give rise to a prominent peak in the absorption spectrum near 4.5 eV with a different line shape and significantly redshifted peak position from those of an absorption peak arising from interband transitions in an independent quasiparticle picture. In the infrared regime, our calculated optical absorbance per graphene layer is approximately a constant, 2.4%, in agreement with recent experiments; additional low frequency features are found for bilayer graphene because of band structure effects.

AB The question of how thin cuprate layers can be while still retaining high-temperature superconductivity (HTS) has been challenging to address, in part because experimental studies require the synthesis of near-perfect ultrathin HTS layers and ways to profile the superconducting properties such as the critical temperature and the superfluid density across interfaces with atomic resolution. We used atomic-layer molecular beam epitaxy to synthesize bilayers of a cuprate metal (La(1.65)Sr(0.45)CuO(4)) and a cuprate insulator (La(2)CuO(4)) in which each layer is just three unit cells thick. We selectively doped layers with isovalent Zn atoms, which suppress superconductivity and act as markers, to show that this interface HTS occurs within a single CuO(2) plane. This approach may also be useful in fabricating HTS devices.

AB We have studied the morphology of a bulk-crystalline metal, Ag, deposited on a clean surface of a metallic glass, Zr-Ni-Cu-Al. At 190-300 K, the films exhibit Stranski-Krastanov-like growth, wherein three-dimensional clusters form atop an Ag wetting layer that is 4-5 monolayers thick. Above this coverage, cluster growth competes with growth of the flatter regions. The cluster density increases with decreasing temperature, indicating that the conditions of island nucleation are far-from-equilibrium. Within a simple model where clusters nucleate whenever two mobile Ag adatoms meet, the temperature-dependence of cluster density yields an (reasonable) upper limit for the value of the Ag diffusion barrier on top of the Ag wetting layer of 0.32 eV. Overall, this prototypical study suggests that it is possible to grow films of a bulk-crystalline metal that adopts the amorphous character of a glassy metal substrate, if film thickness is sufficiently low.

AB The effect of silicon nitridation on structural quality, indium, incorporation, and electrical properties of the InGaN/Si heterojunctions is investigated. A series of In(x)Ga(1-x)N (x = 0-0.32) thin films are grown directly on Si(111) substrates, with and without a Si(x)N(y) surface layer, by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The crystalline quality is higher and the indium incorporation is increased when the In(x)Ga(1-x)N thin films are grown with the intentional SixNy buffer. These observations are explained by the reduced local elastic stress at the interface and N-polarity of the surface, both of which promote the incorporation of In. The obtained n-In(x)Ga(1-x)N/p-Si (x = 0.2-0.3) heterojunctions exhibit a nearly ohmic behavior, and the series resistance is higher for the Si(x)N(y)-containing junctions. Our results suggest that unlike the amorphous Si(x)N(y) region spontaneously formed during direct deposition of III-nitrides on Si, the Si(x)N(y) layer obtained by high-temperature annealing of Si(111) in nitrogen atmosphere is beneficial to the In(x)Ga(1-x)N deposition.

AB Aquaporin-1 (AQP-1), the universal water channel, is responsible for rapid response of cell volume to changes in plasma tonicity. In the membrane of the red cell the concentration of the protein is tightly controlled. Here, we show that AQP-1 is partially lost during in vitro maturation of mouse reticulocytes and that it is associated with exosomes, released throughout this process. AQP-1 in young reticulocytes localizes to the plasma membrane and also in endosomal compartments and exosomes, formed both in vitro and in vivo. During maturation a part of the total pool of AQP-1 is differentially sorted and released via the exosomal pathway. A proteasome inhibitor, MG132, suppresses secretion of AQP-1, implying that ubiquitination is a sorting signal for its release. We further show that modulation of medium tonicity in vitro regulates the secretion of AQP-1, thus showing that extracellular osmotic conditions can drive sorting of selected proteins by the exosomal pathway. These results lead us to suggest that AQP-1 sorting into exosomes may be the mechanism by which the reticulocyte adapts to environmental changes during its maturation. (Blood. 2009;114:3928-3934)

AB Background: New and improved antimicrobial countermeasures are urgently needed to counteract increased resistance to existing antimicrobial treatments and to combat currently untreatable or new emerging infectious diseases. We demonstrate that computational comparative genomics, together with experimental screening, can identify potential generic (i. e., conserved across multiple pathogen species) and novel virulence-associated genes that may serve as targets for broad-spectrum countermeasures.
Results: Using phylogenetic profiles of protein clusters from completed microbial genome sequences, we identified seventeen protein candidates that are common to diverse human pathogens and absent or uncommon in non-pathogens. Mutants of 13 of these candidates were successfully generated in Yersinia pseudotuberculosis and the potential role of the proteins in virulence was assayed in an animal model. Six candidate proteins are suggested to be involved in the virulence of Y. pseudotuberculosis, none of which have previously been implicated in the virulence of Y. pseudotuberculosis and three have no record of involvement in the virulence of any bacteria.
Conclusion: This work demonstrates a strategy for the identification of potential virulence factors that are conserved across a number of human pathogenic bacterial species, confirming the usefulness of this tool.

ID GLOBAL OPTIMIZATION; PROPAGATION
AB We present two methods for efficiently sampling the response (trajectory space) of multibody systems operating under spatial uncertainty, when the latter is assumed to be representable with Gaussian processes. In this case, the dynamics (time evolution) of the multibody systems depends oil spatially indexed uncertain parameters that span infinite-dimensional spaces. This places it heavy computational burden oil existing methodologies, an issue addressed herein with two new conditional sampling approaches. When a single instance of the uncertainty is needed in the entire domain, we use a fast Fourier transform technique. When the initial conditions are fixed and the path distribution of the dynamical system is relatively narrow, we use an incremental sampling approach that is fast and has a small memory footprint. Both methods produce the same distributions as the widely used Cholesky-based approaches. We illustrate this convergence at a smaller computational effort and memory cost for a simple non-linear vehicle model. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB A quasielastic neutron scattering experiment probing the dynamics of water molecules on the pico- to nanosecond time scale in An aqueous solution of lithium chloride has detected a crossover at about 220-230 K between the high-temperature non-Arrhenius and low-temperature Arrhenius behavior. This is the first experiment where the crossover in the dynamics of water molecules is detected in bulk rather than in confinement. The results suggest that the dynamic crossover observed in the current and many recent experiments is not linked to the specific properties of water; instead, it may represent a more general dynamic transition.

AB The solvation of alanine is investigated, with a focus on adding a sufficient number of discrete water molecules to determine the first solvation shell for both the nonionized (N) and zwitterionic (Z) forms to converge the enthalpy of solvation and the enthalpy difference for the two forms of alanine. Monte Carlo sampling was employed using the generalized effective fragment potential (EFP) method to determine the global minimum of both conformers, with the number of EFP water molecules ranging from 32-49. A subset of sampled geometries were optimized with second-order perturbation theory (MP2) using the 6-31++G(d,p) basis set. Single point energies were calculated at these geometries using the polarizable continuum model (PCM). The predicted 298.15 K enthalpy of solvation ranges for MP2/6-31++G(d,p) and MP2+PCM//MP2/6-31++G(d,p) are 10.0-13.2 kcal/mol and 10.1-12.6 kcal/mol, respectively.

AB The structural, tautomeric, hydrogen-bonding, stacking, and electronic properties of a seleno-derivative of thymine (T), denoted here as 4SeT and created by replacing O4 in T with Se, are investigated by means of ab initio computational techniques. The structural properties of T and 4SeT are very similar, and the geometrical differences are mainly-limited to the adjacent environment of the C-Se bond. The canonical "keto" form is the most stable, tautomer, in the gas phase and in aqueous solution, for both T and 4SeT. It is argued that the competition between two opposite trends, i.e., a decrease in the base-pairing ability and an increase of the stacking interaction upon incorporation of 4SeT into a duplex, likely explains the similar experimental melting points of a seleno-derivative duplex (Se-DNA) and its native counterpart. Interestingly, the underlying electronic structure shows that replacement of O4 with Se promotes a reduction in the HOMO-LUMO gap and an increase in interplane coupling, which suggests that Se-DNA could be potentially useful for nanodevice applications. This finding is further supported by the fact that transfer integrals between 4SeT center dot center dot center dot A stacked base pairs are larger than those determined for similarly stacked natural T center dot center dot center dot A pairs.

AB Exposure of Pd-based hydrogen purification membranes to H2S, a common contaminant in coal gasification streams, can cause membrane performance to deteriorate, either by deactivating surface sites required for dissociative H-2 adsorption or by forming a low-permeability sulfide scale. In this work, the composition, structure, and catalytic activity of Pd4S, a surface scale commonly observed in Pd-membrane separation of hydrogen from sulfur-containing gas streams, were examined using a combination of experimental characterization and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. A Pd4S sample was prepared by exposing a 100 mu m Pd foil to H2S at 908 K. Both X-ray photoemission depth profiling and low energy ion scattering spectroscopic (LEISS) analysis reveal slight sulfur-enrichment of the top surface of the sample. This view is consistent with the predictions of DFT atomistic thermodynamic calculations, which identified S-terminated Pd4S surfaces as energetically favored over corresponding Pd-terminated surfaces. Activation barriers for H-2 dissociation on the Pd4S surfaces were calculated. Although barriers are higher than on Pd(111), transition state theory analysis identified reaction pathways on the S-terminated surfaces for which hydrogen dissociation rates are high enough to sustain the separation process at conditions relevant to gasification applications.

AB The effects of aggregate formation on the photophysical properties of oligomers of MEH-PPV were studied in bulk solution to better understand the effects of aggregation on the emission properties of the polymer. Nanoaggregates of oligomers from 3 to 17 repeat units in length were formed using a solvent reprecipitation method. The spectra are not readily modeled using the classical dipole-dipole coupling picture of interchain interactions. A strong dependence of the photophysics on the oligomer chain length is also observed. Short-chain oligomers produce nanoaggregates with absorption and emission spectra essentially identical to those of the monomer. Long-chain oligomers form aggregates having more strongly perturbed absorption and fluorescence spectra and decreased emission yields. In these aggregates, the size of the 0-0 band relative to that of the vibronic replicates is a sensitive function of aggregate size and solvent precipitation conditions. Their fluorescence lifetimes are also strongly wavelength dependent. These trends are explained in terms of a core-shell model that postulates the existence of "single-chain-like" and "aggregate-like" emitters within a single aggregate.

AB As a newly developed photovoltaic technology, organic-inorganic hybrid solar cells have attracted great interest because of the combined advantages from both components. An ideal inorganic acceptor should have a band gap of about 1.5 eV and energy levels of frontier orbitals matching those of the organic polymer in hybrid solar cells. Hybrid density functional calculations are performed to search for optimal inorganic nanomaterials for hybrid-solar sells based on poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT). Our results demonstrate that InSb quantum dots or quantum wires can have a band gap of about 1.5 eV and highest occupied molecular orbital level about 0.4 eV lower than P3HT, indicating that they are good candidates for use in hybrid solar cells. In addition, we predict that chalcopyrite MgSnSb2 quantum wire could be a low-cost material for realizing high-efficiency hybrid solar cells.

TI GRB 090423 at a redshift of z approximate to 8.1

AB Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are produced by rare types of massive stellar explosion. Their rapidly fading afterglows are often bright enough at optical wavelengths that they are detectable at cosmological distances. Hitherto, the highest known redshift for a GRB was z = 6.7 (ref. 1), for GRB 080913, and for a galaxy was z = 6.96 (ref. 2). Here we report observations of GRB 090423 and the near-infrared spectroscopic measurement of its redshift, z = 8.1(-0.3)(+0.1). This burst happened when the Universe was only about 4 per cent of its current age(3). Its properties are similar to those of GRBs observed at low/intermediate redshifts, suggesting that the mechanisms and progenitors that gave rise to this burst about 600,000,000 years after the Big Bang are not markedly different from those producing GRBs about 10,000,000,000 years later.

TI RAD51 paralogs promote homology-directed repair at diversifying

AB Background: Gene conversion depends upon the same factors that carry out more general process of homologous recombination, including homologous gene targeting and recombinational repair. Among these are the RAD51 paralogs, conserved factors related to the key recombination factor, RAD51. In chicken and other fowl, gene conversion (templated mutation) diversifies immunoglobulin variable region sequences. This allows gene conversion and recombinational repair to be studied using the chicken DT40 B cell line, which carries out constitutive gene conversion and provides a robust and physiological model for homology-directed repair in vertebrate cells.
Results: We show that DT40 contains constitutive nuclear foci of the repair factors RAD51D and XRCC2, consistent with activated homologous recombination. Single-cell imaging of a DT40 derivative in which the rearranged and diversifying immunoglobulin lambda(R) light chain gene is tagged with polymerized lactose operator, DT40 PolyLacO-lambda(R), showed that RAD51D and XRCC2 localize to the diversifying lambda(R) gene. Colocalizations correlate both functionally and physically with active immunoglobulin gene conversion. Ectopic expression of either RAD51D or XRCC2 accelerated the clonal rate of gene conversion, and conversion tracts were significantly longer in RAD51D than XRCC2 transfectants.
Conclusion: These results demonstrate direct functions of RAD51D and XRCC2 in immunoglobulin gene conversion, and also suggest that modulation of levels of repair factors may be a useful strategy to promote gene correction in other cell types.

AB Extensive ab initio calculations have been carried out to study equilibrium structures, vibrational frequencies, and the nature of chemical bonds of hydrated UO2(OH)(+), UO2(OH)(2), NpO2(OH), and PuO2(OH)(+) complexes that contain up to 21 water molecules both in first and second hydration spheres in both aqueous solution and the gas phase. The structures have been further optimized by considering long-range solvent effects through a polarizable continuum dielectric model. The hydrolysis reaction Gibbs free energy of UO2(H2O)(5)(2+) is computed to be 8.11 kcal/mol at the MP2 level in good agreement with experiments. Our results reveal that it is necessary to include water molecules bound to the complex in the first hydration sphere for proper treatment of the hydrated complex and the dielectric cavity although water molecules in the second hydration sphere do not change the coordination complex. Structural reoptimization of the complex in a dielectric cavity seems inevitable to seek subtle structural variations in the solvent and to correlate with the observed spectra and thermodynamic properties in the aqueous environment. Our computations reveal dramatically different equilibrium structures in the gas phase and solution and also confirm the observed facile exchanges between the complex and bulk solvent. Complete active space multiconfiguration self-consistent field followed by multireference singles+doubles CI (MRSDCI) computations on smaller complexes confirm predominantly single-configurational nature of these species and the validity of B3LYP and MP2 techniques for these complexes in their ground states.

AB The important role of liquid water in many areas of science from chemistry, physics, biology, geology to climate research, etc., has motivated numerous theoretical studies of its structure and dynamics. The significance of quantum effects on the properties of water, however, has not yet been fully resolved. In this paper we focus on quantum dynamical effects in liquid water based on the linearized semiclassical initial value representation (LSC-IVR) with a quantum version of the simple point charge/flexible (q-SPC/fw) model [Paesani et al., J. Chem. Phys. 125, 184507 (2006)] for the potential energy function. The infrared (IR) absorption spectrum and the translational diffusion constants have been obtained from the corresponding thermal correlation functions, and the effects of intermolecular and intramolecular correlations have been studied. The LSC-IVR simulation results are compared with those predicted by the centroidmolecular dynamics (CMD) approach. Although the LSC-IVR and CMD results agree well for the broadband for hindered motions in liquid water, the intramolecular bending and O-H stretching peaks predicted by the LSC-IVR are blueshifted from those given by CMD; reasons for this are discussed. We also suggest that the broadband in the IR spectrum corresponding to restricted translation and libration gives more information than the diffusion constant on the nature of quantum effects on translational and rotational motions and should thus receive more attention in this regard.

AB We present a generalized approach for computing electron conductance and I-V characteristics in multiterminal junctions from first-principles. Within the framework of Keldysh theory, electron transmission is evaluated employing an O(N) method for electronic-structure calculations. The nonequilibrium Green function for the nonequilibrium electron density of the multiterminal junction is computed self-consistently by solving Poisson equation after applying a realistic bias. We illustrate the suitability of the method on two examples of four-terminal systems, a radialene molecule connected to carbon chains and two crossed-carbon chains brought together closer and closer. We describe charge density, potential profile, and transmission of electrons between any two terminals. Finally, we discuss the applicability of this technique to study complex electronic devices.

AB Analytical potential energy derivatives, based on the Hellmann-Feynman theorem, are presented for any pair of isoelectronic compounds. Since energies are not necessarily monotonic functions between compounds, these derivatives can fail to predict the right trends of the effect of alchemical mutation. However, quantitative estimates without additional self-consistency calculations can be made when the Hellmann-Feynman derivative is multiplied with a linearization coefficient that is obtained from a reference pair of compounds. These results suggest that accurate predictions can be made regarding any molecule's energetic properties as long as energies and gradients of three other molecules have been provided. The linearization coefficent can be interpreted as a quantitative measure of chemical similarity. Presented numerical evidence includes predictions of electronic eigenvalues of saturated and aromatic molecular hydrocarbons. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3249969]

AB The first purely density-based energy decomposition analysis (EDA) for intermolecular binding is developed within the density functional theory. The most important feature of this scheme is to variationally determine the frozen density energy, based on a constrained search formalism and implemented with the Wu-Yang algorithm [Q. Wu and W. Yang, J. Chem. Phys. 118, 2498 (2003)]. This variational process dispenses with the Heitler-London antisymmetrization of wave functions used in most previous methods and calculates the electrostatic and Pauli repulsion energies together without any distortion of the frozen density, an important fact that enables a clean separation of these two terms from the relaxation (i.e., polarization and charge transfer) terms. The new EDA also employs the constrained density functional theory approach [Q. Wu and T. Van Voorhis, Phys. Rev. A 72, 24502 (2005)] to separate out charge transfer effects. Because the charge transfer energy is based on the density flow in real space, it has a small basis set dependence. Applications of this decomposition to hydrogen bonding in the water dimer and the formamide dimer show that the frozen density energy dominates the binding in these systems, consistent with the noncovalent nature of the interactions. A more detailed examination reveals how the interplay of electrostatics and the Pauli repulsion determines the distance and angular dependence of these hydrogen bonds.

AB There is still much to be understood about the processes contributing to relativistic electron enhancements and losses in the radiation belts. Wave particle interactions with both whistler and electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves may precipitate or accelerate these electrons. This study examines the relation between EMIC waves and resulting relativistic electron flux levels after geomagnetic storms. A proxy for enhanced EMIC waves is developed using Los Alamos National Laboratory Magnetospheric Plasma Analyzer plasma data from geosynchronous orbit in conjunction with linear theory. In a statistical study using superposed epoch analysis, it is found that for storms resulting in net relativistic electron losses, there is a greater occurrence of enhanced EMIC waves. This is consistent with the hypothesis that EMIC waves are a primary mechanism for the scattering of relativistic electrons and thus cause losses of such particles from the magnetosphere.

For the low temperature phase in which the Er sublattice orders, new magnetic Bragg peaks are reported which can be indexed with integer (hkl) for a face centered cubic cell. Inelastic measurements reveal a wealth of crystal field levels of the Er ion and a copious amount of magnetic scattering below 15 meV. The three lowest groups of crystal field levels are at 6.7, 9.1 and 18.5 meV.

AB The stabilities of selected fission products-Xe, Cs, and Sr-are investigated as a function of non-stoichiometry x in UO2+/-x. In particular, density functional theory (DFT) is used to calculate the incorporation and solution energies of these fission products at the anion and cation vacancy sites, at the divacancy, and at the bound Schottky defect. In order to reproduce the correct insulating state of UO2, the DFT calculations are performed using spin polarization and with the Hubbard U term. In general, higher charge defects are more soluble in the fuel matrix and the solubility of fission products increases as the hyperstoichiometry increases. The solubility of fission product oxides is also explored. Cs2O is observed as a second stable phase and SrO is found to be soluble in the UO2 matrix for all stoichiometries. These observations mirror experimentally observed phenomena.

AB A numerically implementable multi-scale many-body approach to strongly correlated electron systems is introduced. An extension to quantum cluster methods, it approximates correlations on any given length-scale commensurate with the strength of the correlations on the respective scale. Short length-scales are treated explicitly, long ones are addressed at a dynamical mean-field level and intermediate length-regime correlations are assumed to be weak and are approximated diagrammatically. To illustrate and test this method, we apply it to the one-dimensional Hubbard model. The resulting multi-scale self-energy provides a very good quantitative agreement with substantially more numerically expensive, explicit quantum Monte Carlo calculations.

AB Defect properties and phase transition in UO2 have been studied from first principles by the all-electron projector-augmented-wave (PAW) method. The generalized gradient approximation with empirical self-interaction correction, (GGA) + U, formalism has been used to account for the strong on-site Coulomb repulsion among the localized U 5f electrons. The Hubbard parameter U-eff, magnetic ordering, chemical potential and heat of formation have been systematically examined. By choosing an appropriate U-eff = 3.0 eV it is possible to consistently describe structural properties of UO2 and model the phase transition processes. The phase transition pressure for UO2 is about 20 GPa, which is less than the experimental value of 42 GPa but better than the LDA + U value of 7.8 GPa. Meanwhile our results for the formation energies of intrinsic defects partly confirm earlier calculations for the intrinsic charge neutral defects but reveal large variations depending on the determination of the chemical potential and whether the environment is O-rich or U-rich. Moreover, the results for extrinsic defects of Xe, which are representative of mobile insoluble fission product in UO2, are consistent with experimental data in which Xe prefers to be trapped by Schottky defects.

AB The divalent calcium and ytterbium compounds M(C(SiHMe2)(3))(2)THF2 contain beta-agostic SiH groups, as determined by spectroscopy and crystallography. Upon thermolysis, HC(SiHMe2)(3) is formed. However, the SiH groups are hydridic. The compounds M(C(SiHMe2)(3))(2)THF2 react with 1 and 2 equiv of the Lewis acid B(C6F5)(3) to form MC(SiHMe2)(3)HB(C6F5)(3))THF2 and M(HB(C6F5)(3))(2)THF2, respectively. These species contain the anion [HB(C6F5)(3)](-) from hydride abstraction rather than [(Me2HSi)(3)CB(C6F5)(3)](-) from alkyl abstraction. The 1,3-disitacyclobutane byproduct initially suggested beta-elimination [as the dimer of the silene Me2Si=C(SiHMe2)(2)], but the other products and reaction stoichiometry rule out that pathway. Additionally, Yb(C(SiHMe2)(3))(2)THF2 and the weak Lewis acid BPh3 react rapidly and also give the H-abstracted products. Despite the strong hydridic character of the SiH groups and the low-coordinate, Lewis acidic metal center in M(C(SiHMe2)(3)THF2 compounds, 8-elimination is not an observed reaction pathway.

AB Absolute rate constants were determined for the abstraction of hydrogen atoms from (OC)(3)Fe(mu-SH)(2)Fe(CO)(3) (Fe2S2H2) and (OC)(3)Fe(mu-SCH3)(mu-SH)Fe(CO)(3) (Fe2S2MeH) by benzyl radicals in benzene. From the temperature-dependent rate data for Fe2S2H2, Delta H double dagger and Delta S double dagger were determined to be 2.03 +/- 0.56 kcal/mol and -19.3 +/- 1.7 cal/(mol K), respectively, giving k(abs) = (1.2 +/- 0.49) x 10(7) M-1 s(-1) at 25 degrees C. For Fe2S2MeH, Delta H double dagger and Delta S double dagger were determined to be 1.97 +/- 0.46 kcal/mol and -18.1 +/- 1.5 cal/(mol K), respectively, giving k(abs) = (2.3 +/- 0.23) x 10(7) M-1 s(-1) at 25 degrees C. Temperature-dependent rate data are also reported for hydrogen atom abstraction by benzyl radical from thiophenol (Delta H double dagger = 3.62 +/- 0.43 kcal/mol, Delta S double dagger = -21.7 +/- 1.3 cal/(mol K)) and H2S (Delta H double dagger = 5.13 +/- 0.99 kcal/mol, Delta S double dagger = -24.8 +/- 3.2 cal/(mol K)), giving k(abs) at 25 degrees C of (2.5 +/- 0.33) x 10(5) and (4.2 +/- 0.51) x 10(3) M-1 s(-1), respectively, both having hydrogen atom abstraction rate constants orders of magnitude slower than those of Fe2S2H2 and Fe2S2MeH. Thus, Fe2S2MeH is 100-fold faster than thiophenol, known as a fast donor. All rate constants are reported per abstractable hydrogen atom (k(abs)/M-1 s(-1)/H). DFT calculations predict S-H bond strengths of 73.1 and 73.2 kcal/mol for Fe2S2H2 and Fe2S2MeH, respectively. Free energy and NMR chemical shift calculations confirm the NMR assignments and populations of Fe2S2H2 and Fe2S2MeH isomers. Derived radicals Fe2S2H center dot and Fe2S2Me center dot exhibit singly occupied HOMOs with unpaired spin density distributed between the two Fe atoms, a bridging sulfur, and d(sigma)-bonding between Fe centers. The S-H solution bond dissociation free energy (SBDFE) of Fe2S2MeH was found to be 69.4 +/- 1.7 kcal/mol by determination of its pK(a) (16.0 +/- 0.4) and the potential for the oxidation of the anion, Fe2S2Me-, of -0.26 +/- 0.05 V vs ferrocene in acetonitrile (corrected for dimerization of Fe2S2Me center dot). This SBDFE for Fe2S2MeH corresponds to a gas-phase bond dissociation enthalpy (BDE) of 74.2 kcal/mol, in satisfactory agreement with the DFT value of 73.2 kcal/mol. Replacement of the Fe-Fe bond in Fe2S2MeH with bridging mu-S (Fe2S3MeH) or mu-CO (Fe2S2(CO)MeH) groups leads to (DFT) BDEs of 72.8 and 66.2 kcal/mol, the latter indicating dramatic effects of the choice of bridge structure on S-H bond strengths. These results provide a model for the reactivity of hydrosulfido sites of low-valent heterogeneous FeS catalysts.

AB We describe a class of plasmonic crystal that consists of square arrays of nanoposts formed by soft nanoimprint lithography. As sensors, these structure show somewhat higher bulk refractive index sensitivity for aqueous solutions in the visible wavelength range as compared to plasmonic crystals consisting of square arrays of nanowells with similar dimensions, with opposite trends for the case of surface bound layers in air. Three-dimensional finite-difference time-domain simulations quantitatively capture the key features and assist in the interpretation of these and related results.

TI Measurement of voltage-dependent electronic transport across

DT Article
ID CONDUCTANCE; CIRCUITS
AB We measure the conductance and current-voltage characteristics of two amine-terminated molecular wires-4,4'-diaminostilbene and bis-(4-aminophenyl) acetylene-by breaking Au point contacts in a molecular solution at room temperature. Histograms compiled from thousands of measurements show a slight increase in the molecular junction conductance (I/V) as the bias is increased to nearly 450 mV. Comparatively, similar conductance measurements made with 1,6-diaminohexane, a saturated molecule, demonstrate almost no bias dependence. We also present a new technique to measure a statistically defined current-voltage (I-V) curve. Application to all three molecules shows that 4,4'-diaminostilbene exhibits the largest increase in differential conductance as a function of applied bias. This indicates that the predominant transport channel for 4,4'-diaminostilbene (the highest occupied molecular orbital) is closer to the Fermi level of the metal than that of the other molecules, consistent with the trends observed in the molecular ionization potential. We find that junctions constructed with the conjugated molecules show greater noise in individual junctions and less structural stability, on average, at biases greater than 450 mV. In contrast, junctions formed with the alkane can sustain a bias of up to 900 mV. This significantly affects the statistically averaged I-V characteristic measured for the conjugated molecules at higher bias.

Influenza Virus B
SO BIOCHEMISTRY

DT Article
ID ION-CHANNEL; A VIRUS; M2 CHANNEL; MECHANISM; PROTEIN; RESIDUES
AB BM2 is a small integral membrane protein from influenza B virus which forms proton-permeable channels. Coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics simulations have been used to produce a model of the BM2 channel by self-assembly of a tetrameric bundle of BM2 transmembrane helices in a lipid bilayer. The BM2 channel model is conformationally stable on a 5,us time scale. This CG model was converted to atomistic resolution to refine interhelix and channel-water interactions. Atomistic molecular dynamics simulations indicate that the BM2 channel is closed when no more than two of the four His19 residues are protonated. Protonating a third His19 side chain initiates a conformational change that opens the channel. In summary, our simulations suggest a common mechanism for BM2 and A/M2, whereby changes in helix packing play a functional role in channel gating.

AB Six nickel-containing perovskite oxides (La(1-x)Sr(x))M(0.9)Ni(0.1)O(3+delta), where x = 0 or 0.2 and M = Cr, Fe, or Mn) were used to catalyze the autothermal reforming of isooctane (C(8)H(18)) into a hydrogen-rich gas during short-term tests at 700 degrees C. To determine the phase stability of the samples in the reducing environment of the reforming reactor, characterization studies of the as-prepared and tested perovskite samples were conducted using powder X-ray. diffraction, powder neutron diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. We determined that the reducing conditions of the microreactor caused metallic nickel to form in all six compositions. However, the extent of the nickel loss from the perovskite lattices varied: the chromium-containing compositions lost the least nickel, compared to the manganese- and iron-containing compositions, and the strontium-free compositions lost more nickel than their strontium-containing analogs, Five of the six perovskite compositions tested showed no breakdown of the perovskite lattice despite the loss of nickel from the B-sites, producing only the third example of a B-cation-deficient, 3d transition-metal-containing perovskite.

AB The optoelectronic properties of thin films of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) are markedly improved by treating the polymer in solution with either electrophiles or nucleophiles. The work function is strongly decreased by treatment with lithium aluminum hydride, consistent with hydride ion addition and the observed similar to 400-fold decrease in p-type defect density. The exciton diffusion length (L-ex) doubled to 14 nm, while the bulk carrier mobility (mu) improved by more than an order of magnitude to 2.4 x 10(-3) cm(2)/(V s)The work function is increased after treatment with dimethylsulfate, which is consistent with methyl cation addition and, again, both L-ex and mu are increased substantially. Both treatments greatly improve the polymer's stability against photo-oxidation. We discuss these results in the framework of defect engineering in organic semiconductors, in analogy to defect engineering studies of inorganic semiconductors.

AB High-vacuum polymerization of alpha-(amino acid)-N-carboxyanhydrides (NCAs) affords polymers with controlled molecular weights and narrow polydispersities; however, it comprehensive study of the end-group composition of the resulting polypeptides has not yet been performed. This reveals crucial information, as the end-groups are indicative of both the polymerization mechanism (i.e., initiation event) and the termination pathways. To this end, poly(O-benzyl-L-tyrosine) initiated by 1,6-diaminohexane was synthesized and Subsequently characterized by MALDI-TOF MS, NALDI-TOF MS, and (13)C NMR spectroscopy to ascertain the end-group structure. Polymers were prepared by both high-vacuum and glovebox techniques in DMF/THF. Preparation of poly(O-benzyl-L-tyrosine) by high-vacuum techniques yielded a polymer initiated exclusively by the normal amine mechanism, and termination by reaction with DMF was observed. In contrast, polymers prepared in the glovebox were initiated by the normal amine and activated monomer mechanisms, and several termination products arc evident. To our knowledge, this is the First rigorous and comparative analysis of the end-group structure, and it demonstrates the advantage of high-vacuum techniques for polymerization of NCAs for the preparation of well-defined polypeptides with end-group fidelity.

AB The adsorption of micelles made from precisely synthesized branched block copolymers is investigated and analyzed using a model framework that incorporates the effects of mass transport and dynamic relaxation/reorganization events occurring at the solid/fluid interface. Both processes are required to represent adequately the adsorption profile over the entire progression to pseudoequilibrium. Insight into the relative importance of the two processes, the terminus of the diffusion-dominated regime, and differences between diffusion in free Solution and in confinement is also provided. The results demonstrate commonality between adsorption of micelle-forming surfactant-like copolymers and biomimetic vesicles formed by small-molecule surfactants, both of which are systems dominated by rearrangements on the surface.

AB The crossover from a simple liquid to an unentangled oligomer diffusing into liquid and glassy entangled polymer matrices is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. The oligomer film is described by a bead-spring model of chain length N(o) = 10 and 50 while the polymer matrix consist of chains of length N(p) = 500. Results are compared to interdiffusion into an unentangled polymer matrix of chain length N(p) = 50. Diffusion of the oligomer into the polymer is observed in all cases as evidenced by t(1/2) scaling of both the mass uptake of the oligomer by the polymer and oligomer density profiles oil the polymer-rich side of the interface as a function of time t. Oil the oligomer-rich side, the scaling exponent is less than 1/2 due to the swelling of the polymer film and depends on the chain length of both the oligomer and polymer. Oligomer diffusivities into the entangled polymer matrix are highly concentration dependent, in contrast to a nearly constant diffusivity for penetration into the unentangled polymer. The roughness of the polymer Film evolves as t(0.2) for both liquid and glassy films.

AB The bacterium Bacillus subtilis produces the molecule surfactin, which is known to enhance the spreading of multicellular colonies on nutrient substrates by lowering the surface tension of the surrounding fluid, and to aid in the formation of aerial structures. Here we present experiments and a mathematical model that demonstrate how the differential accumulation rates induced by the geometry of the bacterial film give rise to surfactant waves. The spreading flux increases with increasing biofilm viscosity. Community associations are known to protect bacterial populations from environmental challenges such as predation, heat, or chemical stresses, and enable digestion of a broader range of nutritive sources. This study provides evidence of enhanced dispersal through cooperative motility, and points to nonintuitive methods for controlling the spread of biofilms.

AB Ubiquitination by the anaphase-promoting complex (APC/C) is essential for proliferation in all eukaryotes. The human APC/C promotes the degradation of mitotic regulators by assembling K11-linked ubiquitin chains, the formation of which is initiated by its E2 UbcH10. Here, we identify the conserved Ube2S as a K11-specific chain elongating E2 for human and Drosophila APC/C. Ube2S depends on the cell cycle-dependent association with the APC/C activators Cdc20 and Cdh1 for its activity. While depletion of Ube2S already inhibits APC/C in cells, the loss of the complete UbcH10/Ube2S-module leads to dramatic stabilization of APC/C substrates, severe spindle defects, and a strong mitotic delay. Ube2S and UbcH10 are tightly co-regulated in the cell cycle by APC/C-dependent degradation. We conclude that UbcH10 and Ube2S constitute a physiological E2-module for APC/C, the activity of which is required for spindle assembly and cell division.

AB A-site substitution of La3+ by Sr2+ in polaron conducting ABO(3)-type perovskite La1-xSrxFe0.75Ni0.25O3-delta causes oxidation of Fe3+ toward Fe4+ and formation of conducting electron holes, as evidenced by Fe (2p) and O (1s) near edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectra. Hole doping is reflected by linear variation of the prepeak ratio e(g)(up arrow)/ [t(2g)(down arrow)+e(g)(down arrow)] of oxygen spectra, along with increased conductivity. The significant increase in conductivity due to NiO doping in La1-xSrxFe0.75Ni0.25O3-delta is caused by increased overlap between Fe (3d) and O (2p) and charge transfer from the O (2p) to the Ni (3d) states, as concluded from near edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectra and ligand field multiplet calculations.

AB Thermal crosslinking using a suitable radical initiator simultaneously improves electrical conductivity in the semiconducting polymer poly(3-hexylthiophene) and makes the material insoluble. Crosslinked polythiophene shows as much as a fivefold increase in hole conductivity across the film thickness without any shift in spectral light absorption. Grazing incidence x-ray diffraction reveals more in-plane polymer lamellae stacking with only a small decrease in film crystallinity. Improved transverse conductivity increases the performance of model planar solar cells by threefold, from 0.07% to 0.2%. The ability to render polythiophene insoluble without disrupting film structural order enables fabrication pathways to more complex device architectures. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

The SRO of the Ga atoms has at least some D0(3) character. In contrast Ge atoms only exhibit B2 chemical ordering symmetries in the short range order. It has been proposed that the D0(3) character in the SRO is important for the enhancement in magnetoelasticity in Fe-based alloys; however the presence of B2 character in Fe-Ge alloys suggest that the SRO is not of primary importance in increasing the magnetostriction.

AB We demonstrate quantitative determination of surface Fermi level pinning position in InN nanowires using polymer electrolyte gating and three-dimensional (3D) electrostatic modeling of charge distribution. We find pinning of the Fermi level 0.6-0.7 eV above the conduction band minimum at the surface of the nanowires. After taking into account the Fermi level pinning, doping concentration and carrier mobilities are also evaluated and compared with InN thin films. This general approach of combining electrolyte gating experiments with 3D numerical modeling can be applied to nanowires of other materials to determine their surface Fermi level pinning position.

AB Several techniques have been developed to phase apertures in the context of astronomical telescopes with segmented mirrors. Phasing multiple apertures, however, is important in a wide range of optical applications. The application of primary interest in this paper is the phasing of multiple short pulse laser beams for fast ignition fusion experiments. In this paper analytic expressions are derived for parameters such as the far-field distribution, a line-integrated form of the far-field distribution that could be fit to measured data, enclosed energy or energy-in-a-bucket and center-of-mass that can then be used to phase two rectangular apertures. Experimental data is taken with a MEMS device to simulate the two apertures and comparisons are made between the analytic parameters and those derived from the measurements. Two methods, fitting the measured far-field distribution to the theoretical distribution and measuring the ensquared energy in the far-field, produced overall phase variance between the 100 measurements of less than 0.005 rad(2) or an RMS displacement of less than 12 nm.

AB Reaction network analysis of the oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) reaction of isobutane over model carbon catalysts with tailored open-edge graphitic structure and quinone-type oxygenated functionalities was used to identify the selective pathways for the formation of isobutene. Carbon-based materials have been widely used in catalysis, but the active sites are not well-understood due to the complexity of the carbon structure. Correct identification of these sites is essential for learning how to manipulate material structure to achieve high catalytic yields of the desired products. In this study, we created model catalysts with controllable surface concentration of oxygen based on graphitized mesoporous carbon (GMC). Our studies reveal that the ODH reaction of isobutane on carbon catalysts is a parallel-consecutive pathway with partial oxidative dehydrogenation for the formation of isobutene and deep oxidation pathway for the direct formation of CO and CO(2) from isobutane. These two pathways show different dependence on the quinone-type oxygen sites: the rate constant leading to the desired partial oxidation product does not show a strong correlation to the density of the oxygen sites, whereas the rate constant leading to the unselective CO(x) products increases continuously with the density of oxygen sites.

AB With a high-energy 3rd generation source like the Advanced Photon Source (APS), it is possible to push the performance of polychromatic microdiffraction far beyond current levels and to approach the intrinsic limit of the technique based on sample damage and the diffraction limit of X-rays. We describe ongoing efforts to improve the spatial, temporal and momentum transfer resolution of polychromatic microdiffraction on beamline 34-ID-E at the APS. The goal of this effort is to provide high-resolution images of 3D crystal structures over sufficient volumes and with sufficient detail to clarify the underlying physics of inhomogeneous structure and evolution on mesoscopic length scales. The performance of a high-speed amorphous Si area detector system and the ongoing development of advanced focusing optics will be described and discussed in light of the ultimate limits set by the physics of X-rays and materials, and in light of opportunities to field specialized insertion devices and optics for polychromatic microdiffraction.

AB Severe plastic deformation during Friction Stir Processing (FSP) of an IN738 Ni-based superalloy was studied by means of X-ray polychromatic microdiffraction, EBSD, scanning electron and optical microscopies. Modeling of the physical properties and phase composition was also performed. Several distinct zones are formed during FSP including a stir zone (SZ), a thermal-mechanical affected zone (TMAZ) and a heat affected zone (HAZ). Each zone has distinct microstructure after FSP. The initial dendrite structure is preserved in the HAZ, while strengthening gamma'-phase particles partially dissolve and coagulate. Plastic deformation of the base material dendrites takes place in the TMAZ and a large number of geometrically necessary dislocations are formed. The extent of deformation increases toward the SZ and the dendrite structure is completely destroyed in the SZ and replaced by a fine submicrocrystallinne microstructure. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB In order to assess the reliability of the relatively new polychromatic X-ray microdiffraction (PXM) method for measuring the magnitude and distribution of mechanical strains, PXM and the traditional technique-neutron diffraction measurements were made on the gauge section of an uniaxially 1% strained Alloy 600 tensile specimen and an unstressed sample of the same alloy. The average strain magnitudes for the grains analyzed by PXM were found to be similar with those measured from neutron diffraction within the large experimental uncertainty. Of particular interest was the behavior of dislocations in opposing grains across grain boundaries of differing orientations, which was studied by comparing the elongation and splitting of PXM spots. Similar dislocation densities, operating on the similar slip systems, were found on both sides of 60, boundaries, while considerable differences in the degree of elongation and splitting of diffraction spots occurred between grains with other misorientation angles.

AB Beamline 12.3.2 at the Advanced Light Source (ALS) is a newly commissioned beamline dedicated to X-ray microdiffraction. It operates in both monochromatic and polychromatic radiation mode. The facility uses a superconducting bending magnet source to deliver an X-ray spectrum ranging from 5 to 22 keV. The beam is focused down to similar to 1 mu m size at the sample position using a pair of elliptically bent Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) mirrors enclosed in a vacuum box. The sample placed on high precision stages can be raster-scanned under the microbeam while a diffraction pattern is taken at each step. The arrays of diffraction patterns are then analyzed to derive distribution maps of phases, strain/stress and/or plastic deformation inside the sample. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB High-energy three-dimensional X-ray diffraction with medium and high reciprocal space resolution was applied to study in situ tensile deformation of Ti-7Al specimens. Samples with planar and random dislocation microstructures were prepared and characterized by electron microscopy. Stress tensors of individual grains were obtained at several loads up to 2% deformation. The stress tensors were found to rotate, and resolved shear stresses were calculated. High-resolution reciprocal space maps of selected grains were recorded. Azimuthal and radial distributions were visualized and discussed in terms of idealized dislocation structures. Heterogeneous grain rotations were observed for the planar microstructure and found to be consistent with activation of the highest stressed basal slip system. Intra-granular strain gradients were detected in excess of the intrinsic radial dislocation peak broadening. The potential of combining the applied techniques with modeling to obtain multiple length-scale information during deformation of bulk specimens is discussed. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB With high angular resolution three-dimensional X-ray diffraction, individual subgrains are traced in the bulk of a polycrystalline specimen and their dynamics is followed in situ during varying loading conditions. The intensity distribution of single Bragg reflections from an individual grain is analyzed in reciprocal space. It consists of sharp high-intensity peaks arising from subgrains superimposed on a cloud of lower intensity arising from dislocation walls. Individual subgrains can be distinguished by their unique combination of orientation and elastic strain. The responses of polycrystalline copper to different loading conditions are presented: during uninterrupted tensile deformation, formation of subgrains can be observed concurrently with broadening of the Bragg reflection shortly after onset of plastic deformation. With continued tensile deformation, the subgrain structure develops intermittently. When the traction is terminated, stress relaxation occurs and number, size and orientation of subgrains are found to be constant. The subgrain structure freezes and only a minor clean-up of the dislocation structure is observed. When changing the tensile direction after pre-deformation in tension, a systematic correlation between the degree of strain path change and the changes in the dislocation structure quantified by the volume fraction of the subgrains is established. For obtaining the subgrain volume fraction, a new fitting method has been developed for partitioning the contributions of subgrains and dislocation walls. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We used high-resolution neutron powder diffraction technique in order to accurately measure the atomic positions and bond lengths in calcium carbonates of biogenic (mollusk-made) and geological origin. As a result, in biogenic calcium carbonate we identified atomic bonds, first of all the C-O bonds and some O-O bonds, which obey significant modification (about 1%) with respect to those in geological calcium carbonate. Bond length changes are presumably due to the organic/inorganic interactions in natural bio-composites. Generally, the effect is more pronounced for aragonite, which is structurally more flexible (nine unfixed parameters in atomic positions) than calcite (one parameter of this kind only). The observed bond modifications can be a source of the reported changes in the frequencies of normal vibrations of the carbonate groups measured by Raman or Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) techniques.

AB There has been increasing interest in the substitution of low-cost Mn for Ni in austenitic stainless steels due to the rising price of Ni. This paper investigates the possibility of such a substitution approach for the recently developed alumina (Al(2)O(3))-forming austenitic (AFA) class of heat-resistant stainless steels. Computational thermodynamic tools were utilized to predict the alloy composition range to maintain an austenitic matrix microstructure when Mn is substituted for Ni in the presence of Al, which is a strong body-centered-cubic (BCC) phase stabilizer. Phase equilibria, oxidation behavior, and creep properties of Fe-(10-14)Cr-(5-15)Mn-(4-12)Ni-(2.5-3)Al-Cu-Nb-C-B (in weight percent) based alloys were studied. The alloys based on Fe-14Cr-2.5Al-(5-9)Mm-(10-12)Ni exhibited the best balance of oxidation and creep resistance, which represents approximately 50% reduction in Ni content compared to previously developed AFA alloys. These low-Ni, high-Mn AFA alloys formed protective Al(2)O(3) scales up to 973-1073 K in air and at 923 K in air with 10% water vapor. Creep-rupture lives of the alloys under a severe screening condition of 1023 K and 100 MPa were in the 7.2 x 10(5)-1.8 x 10(6) s (200-500 h) range, which is comparable to or somewhat improved over that of type 347 stainless steel (Fe-18Cr-11Ni base).

AB An "environmental phosphatase" controls bacterial transcriptional responses through alternative sigma factor subunits of RNA polymerase and a partner switching mechanism has been proposed to mediate phosphatase regulation. In many bacteria, the environmental phosphatase and multiple regulators are encoded in separate genes whose products form transient complexes. In contrast, in the Mycobacterium tuberculosis homolog, Rv1364c, the phosphatase is fused to two characteristic regulatory modules with sequence similarities to anti-sigma factor kinases and anti-anti-sigma factor proteins. Here we exploit this fusion to explore interactions between the phosphatase and the regulatory domains. We show quantitatively that the anti-sigma factor kinase domain activates the phosphatase domain, the kinase-phosphatase fusion protein autophosphorylates in Escherichia coli, and phosphorylation is antagonized by the phosphatase activity. Small angle x-ray scattering defines solution structures consistent with the interdomain communication observed biochemically. Taken together, these data indicate that Rv1364c provides a single chain framework to understand the structure, function, and regulation of environmental phosphatases throughout the bacterial kingdom.

AB Gram-negative bacteria, such as Escherichia coli, frequently utilize tripartite efflux complexes belonging to the resistance-nodulation-division family to expel diverse toxic compounds from the cell. These systems contain a periplasmic membrane fusion protein (MFP) that is critical for substrate transport. We here present the x-ray structures of the CusB MFP from the copper/silver efflux system of E. coli. This is the first structure of any MFPs associated with heavy-metal efflux transporters. CusB bridges the inner-membrane efflux pump CusA and outer-membrane channel CusC to mediate resistance to Cu(+) and Ag(+) ions. Two distinct structures of the elongated molecules of CusB were found in the asymmetric unit of a single crystal, which suggests the flexible nature of this protein. Each protomer of CusB can be divided into four different domains, whereby the first three domains are mostly beta-strands and the last domain adopts an entirely helical architecture. Unlike other known structures of MFPs, the alpha-helical domain of CusB is folded into a three-helix bundle. This three-helix bundle presumably interacts with the periplasmic domain of CusC. The N- and C-termini of CusB form the first beta-strand domain, which is found to interact with the periplasmic domain of the CusA efflux pump. Atomic details of how this efflux protein binds Cu(+) and Ag(+) were revealed by the crystals of the CusB-Cu(I) and CusB-Ag(I) complexes. The structures indicate that CusB consists of multiple binding sites for these metal ions. These findings reveal novel structural features of an MFP in the resistance-nodulation-division efflux system and provide direct evidence that this protein specifically interacts with transported substrates.

AB Forward-backward multiplicity correlation strengths have been measured with the STAR detector for Au + Au and p + p collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV. Strong short- and long-range correlations (LRC) are seen in central Au + Au collisions. The magnitude of these correlations decrease with decreasing centrality until only short-range correlations are observed in peripheral Au + Au collisions. Both the dual parton model (DPM) and the color glass condensate (CGC) predict the existence of the long-range correlations. In the DPM, the fluctuation in the number of elementary (parton) inelastic collisions produces the LRC. In the CGC, longitudinal color flux tubes generate the LRC. The data are in qualitative agreement with the predictions of the DPM and indicate the presence of multiple parton interactions.

AB Dense granular flows are often unstable and form inhomogeneous structures. Although significant advances have been recently made in understanding simple flows, instabilities of such flows are often not understood. We present experimental and numerical results that show the formation of longitudinal stripes that arise from instability of the uniform flowing state of granular media on a rough inclined plane. The form of the stripes depends critically on the mean density of the flow with a robust form of stripes at high density that consists of fast sliding pluglike regions (stripes) on top of highly agitated boiling material-a configuration reminiscent of the Leidenfrost effect when a droplet of liquid lifted by its vapor is hovering above a hot surface.

AB Pentaphenyl trimethyl trisiloxane is an isotropic liquid at room temperature with a dynamic glass transition at 224 K. Using x-ray reflectivity, we see surface density oscillations (layers) develop below 285 K, similar to those seen in other metallic and dielectric liquids and in computer simulations. The layering threshold is similar to 0.23 times the liquid-gas critical temperature. Upon cooling further, there is a sharp increase at 224 K in the persistence of the surface layers into the bulk material, i.e., an apparently discontinuous change in static structure at the glass transition.
