Cometary ions were detected at distances from similar to5.5 x 10(5) km to 2200 km from the nucleus of the comet. The predominant heavy ions observed during the seven minute interval about closest approach to Borrelly included OH+ (at 57% of the total water-group density), H2O+ (at 29%), O+ (at 13%), CH3+ (at 5%), and CH2+ (at 4%). Of particular note is the small amount of H3O+ (<9%), as this was the most abundant molecular ion observed at closest approach to Comet Halley. This difference is due to the difference in water production rates between the two comets. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA. Univ Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 USA.

These correlations are crucial to understand the short- and long-term trends in climate. Cirrus clouds are important ingredients of the atmospheric boundary layer. To improve future parameterization of cirrus clouds in climate models, it is important to understand the cloud properties and how they change within the cloud. We study correlations in the fluctuations of radar signals obtained at isodepths of winter and fall cirrus clouds. In particular, we focus on three quantities: (1) the backscattering cross-section, (2) the Doppler velocity, and (3) the Doppler spectral width. They correspond to the physical coefficients used in Navier Stokes equations to describe flows, i.e., bulk modulus, viscosity, and thermal conductivity. In all cases we find that power law time correlations exist with a crossover between regimes at about 3 to 5 min. We also find that different type of correlations, including 1/f behavior, characterize the top and the bottom layers and the bulk of the clouds. The underlying mechanisms for such correlations are suggested to originate in ice nucleation and crystal growth processes. C1 Boston Univ, Ctr Polymer Studies, Boston, MA 02215 USA.

The most commonly occurring such radio emission arises from intracloud (IC) electrical breakdown and is usually recognizable by a pulse followed by a delayed echo from the ground reflection. We show that these IC pulses have two polar opposite types that together account for much of the pulse population. One type is a very bright pulse characterized by extended width (> 2 mus), deep random fading within the pulse, and lack of prior pulses within a flash to which it belongs. The other type of IC pulse is two orders of magnitude less intense and is characterized by narrow width (< 0.1 mu s), a simple pulse shape evidencing no random fading, linear polarization, and occurrence in close association with other such pulses within the same flash. We develop the characteristics of these two pulse types by extensive statistical analysis of FORTE data. We relate the two pulse types to prior observations by other instruments.

We observed that the chemical modification of the hyperbranched cores by substituting a controlled fraction of the terminal hydroxyl groups with hydrophobic alkyl chains is an effective method for a controlling amphiphilic balance of hyperbranched cores with a degree of branching of 50%. Even for imperfect cores, the chemical reaction of hydroxyl groups alkyl tails was very efficient. In fact, the number of attached alkyl tails was fairly close to the theoretical value based on the assumption that all targeted hydroxyl groups were available for the reaction despite their different interior/exterior location. Detailed microstructural analysis of the structure revealed that organized monolayers could be formed at the air-water interface if the number of alkyl tails was higher than two per core. Similar to regular dendrimers, the alkyl tails of hyperbranched molecules at high surface pressure form intramonolayer ordering of the quasi-hexagonal type. However, higher defectness and irregularities of the hyperbranched cores are responsible for poor intralayer ordering of alkyl tails in comparison with regular dendrimers. At high surface pressure, the alkyl tails became arranged in an up-right orientation. The highly water-swollen state of the hyperbranched cores of prolate shape and the partially submerged and standing-off alkyl tails is a characteristic of hyperbranched molecules with fewer alkyl chains in condensed monolayer state at the air-water interface. The core structure is transformed into the oblate, flattened state with preservation of standing-off orientation of the alkyl tails for hyperbranched molecules with crowded outer shells.

The target stoichiometry was SBN:52+/-1.5%, but films grown at 700 degreesC were cation deficient and had a final composition of SBN:61+/-1.5%. Visually, the films were specular, but spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements showed they were highly absorbing, requiring a short anneal in O-2 at 700 degreesC to make them fully transparent. Pole figure analysis indicated that a thick 626+/-1 nm film consisted of the characteristic antiphase domain structure of SBN, but four antiphase domains were found in a thin 185+/-1 nm film. However, the formation of these additional domains was suppressed in a 165+/-1 nm film grown on miscut MgO. Spectroscopic ellipsometry measurements have been made to measure surface and interface roughness, film thickness, as well as the spectroscopic refractive index and extinction coefficient of the films.

The low-energy irradiation generates damage exclusively in the N sublattice. Additional bound-exciton lines are found and are shown to arise from a hydrogenic donor with a binding energy of 25 meV. The donor binding energy, bound-exciton localization energy, and bound-exciton lifetime are discussed in comparison with the values observed for O-N and Si-Ga in the same sample. Nitrogen vacancies V-N forming a hydrogenic donor state are suggested to be the most likely origin of this luminescence emission. Finally, a metastable behavior related to the damage-induced defects is reported and discussed in conjunction with interstitial-nitrogen-related defects. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.

The efficiency of the process depends on the AFM system and the direction of the applied field with respect of the unidirectional anisotropy direction. Textured (111) Fe19Ni81/Fe50Mn50 bilayers show an H-E reduction and a H-C increase when the pulse field is applied antiparallel to the unidirectional anisotropy, while they only exhibit a reduction in H-C when the pulse is applied parallel to their unidirectional anisotropy. On the other hand, textured (111) NiO/Co bilayers exhibit a change of the angular dependence of H-E when the pulse is applied away from the unidirectional anisotropy. The effects could be caused by field induced changes in the domain structure of the AFM or transitions in the AFM (spin-flop or AFM-paramagnetic). (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.

We find that the average magnetic cluster size is slightly larger than the average physical grain size, that there is a broad distribution of cluster sizes, and that the cluster size is inversely correlated to the media signal-to-noise ratio. These results show that intergranular magnetic coupling in these media is small and they provide empirical data for the cluster-size distribution that can be incorporated into models of magnetic recording.

The structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction methods in the monoclinic space group C2/c, with a = 15.154(3) Angstrom, b = 10.401(2) Angstrom, c= 17.413(4) Angstrom, and beta = 113.57(3)degrees, Z = 8. Four-membered Tl-Sb1-Sb4-Sb3 rings interlinked by pairs of Sb2 bridges generate swinglike repeat units [Tl2Sb8] that are further interlinked through external Tl-Tl bonds to form infinite one-dimensional chains. Cations play a major role in the structure. In contrast to the Zintl-phase K6Tl2Sb3 with similar swinglike [Tl4Sb6] repeating units and Tl-Tl interlinkages, Na6TlSb4 has a more compact conformation of the chains and a notably smaller cell volume than expected. The new phase is metallic with two excess cations according to empirical electron counting, EHTB band calculations for the anion, and the compound's measured resistivities and magnetic susceptibilities. The notably shorter Tl-Tl bond in the present salt (2.954 Angstrom) can be directly attributed to the smaller cation and reduced intercation repulsions across that bond.

Some reaction rates - the most important and uncertain still being C-12 (alpha, gamma)O-16 - are important for energy generation and stellar structure. Others, like Ne-22(alpha,n)Mg-25 and individual cross sections for neutron capture determine the overall yield and distribution of the s-process for elements lighter than A = 90. Still others affect the synthesis of individual nuclei, e.g., by the nu-process, the rp-process, and the gamma-process. Weak interaction rates are important in determining the structure of both the pre-collapse and the post-collapse supernova core. Finally, both the site for, and the nuclear physics of the r-process remains very uncertain, quite possibly because of the neglect of magnetic fields.

We have measured cross sections for the F-17(pp)F-17(gs), F-17(p,p(1))F-17(495)*, and F-17(p,alpha)O-14 reactions in inverse kinematics using radioactive F-17 beams from the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility. The properties of states in Ne-18, including those important for the O-14(alpha,p)F-17 reaction rate, were determined from an R-matrix analysis of the measured cross sections. An improved O-14(alpha,p)F-17 reaction rate has been determined. The hot CNO cycle of reactions is important in explosive astrophysical environments such as novae and X-ray bursts. In this cycle, proton captures by C-12 and N-13 in succession lead to the production of O-14. Destruction of O-14 occurs by O-14(beta(+))N-14 and by the O-14 (alpha,p)F-17 reaction. The slow rate of this reaction can limit energy generation and result in substantial abundances of the O-14 isotope in novae [1] and X-ray bursts [2].

At lower temperatures, the reaction rate is dominated by the transition to the 4.033 MeV 3/2(+) state in Ne-19, the first level above the O-15(alpha, gamma) threshold at 3.534 MeV. We have performed an indirect measurement of the ratio Gamma(alpha)/Gamma(gamma) by populating the 3/2(+) state via the He-3 (Ne-20,alpha)Ne-19 reaction in inverse kinematics. The alpha particles were detected in a double-sided Si strip detector telescope while the heavy reaction products, Ne-19 and O-15, were identified in the focal plane of a magnetic spectrograph. For the 4.033 MeV state in Ne-19 an upper limit Gamma(alpha)/Gamma(gamma), of less than or equal to 7x10(-4) has been obtained. C1 Argonne Natl Lab, Argonne, IL 60439 USA.

We activate a He-gas target with a Ca-40 beam and implant recoiling Ti-44 nuclei (similar to10(6)) in a Cu catcher. The Ti-44 atoms chemically extracted with a Ti-nat carrier are counted by accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). The measurement of the Ti-44/Ti ratio, together with the amount of Ti carrier added, determine the number of Ti-44 nuclei produced in the activation, independent of chemical yield or transmission efficiency. The resonance strength (7.4+/-2.5 eV) at E-cm similar to1.1 MeV/n determined for two close-by levels of Ti-44 is in excellent agreement with previous prompt-gamma measurements.

Recent evaluation and dissemination efforts have produced a number of such datasets, many of which are online and readily available to the research community. Current international efforts in this field are, unfortunately, insufficient to keep pace with the latest nuclear physics measurements and model calculations. A dedicated effort is required to update and expand existing datasets. I discuss several strategies and new initiatives that would ensure a more effective utilization of nuclear data in astrophysics. These include launching a new web site www.nucastrodata.org to aid in locating available nuclear data sets, and an interactive online plotting program with an easy-to-use graphical user interface to over 8000 reaction rates.

Since 113 decays to a broad state in Be-8, the shape of the neutrino spectrum is best obtained from a measurement of the a spectrum following the beta(+) decay. A new technique has been used at the ATLAS accelerator to measure this spectrum by implanting B-8 particles into the mid-plane of a 91 mum thick Si detector. The advantage of this method is that both alpha particles are detected and systematic effects due to energy loss in catcher foils and dead layers of the detector are eliminated. To calibrate the detector, alpha's from the decay of Na-20 ions produced and implanted with the same technique were used. C1 Argonne Natl Lab, Argonne, IL 60439 USA.

This extension is necessary for the treatment of interactions with the soft spectator quark in a heavy meson. The power counting of the relevant fields and the construction of the effective Lagrangian are discussed at leading order in Lambda/m(b). Several novel effects occur in the matching of full-theory amplitudes onto effective-theory operators containing soft light quarks, such as the appearance of an intermediate mass scale and large non-localities of operators on scales of order 1/Lambda. Important examples of effective-theory operators with soft light quarks are studied and their renormalization properties explored. The formalism presented here forms the basis for a systematic analysis of factorization and power corrections for any exclusive B-meson decay into light particles. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

From 1976-1999, mean temperatures during February 15th through 24th were appreciably higher (5degreesC or more over large areas) than during 1952-1975. This is associated with a strengthened Aleutian Low for those calendar days during 1976-1999, with negative pressure anomalies extending well into North America. This apparently reflects a decrease in strong, cold, high-pressure systems moving from western Canada into the north central United States during late February. These changes appear to be related to conditions in and over the North Pacific Ocean, possibly in conjunction with global warming, although the latter signal is not clearly obvious. Comparison of time series of daily minimum temperatures for the earlier period (1952 1975) and the recent period (1976-1999) indicates other times of the year when an appreciable warming has occurred; such warming is largely confined to the first half of the calendar year.

The isotherm model accounting best for these data was the biLangmuir model. With increasing methanol content, the two saturation capacities decrease, particularly that of the high-energy sites, the adsorption constant of the low-energy sites decreases significantly and that of the high-energy sites decreases strongly. These results allow a quantitative investigation of the properties of the high-energy sites (which are not necessarily the so-called active sites), a feature rarely discussed yet. The band profiles calculated with the numerical values of the isotherm model parameters derived by fitting the frontal analysis data to the model and using the equilibrium-dispersive model agree very well with the experimental band profiles in the whole concentration range.

PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS LA English DT Article ID QUARK-GLUON PLASMA; HEAVY-ION COLLISIONS; FLUCTUATION AB The balance function is a new observable based on the principle that charge is locally conserved when particles are pair produced. Balance functions have been measured for charged particle pairs and identified charged pion pairs in Au+Au collisions at roots(NN)=130 GeV at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider using STAR. Balance functions for peripheral collisions have widths consistent with model predictions based on a superposition of nucleon-nucleon scattering. Widths in central collisions are smaller, consistent with trends predicted by models incorporating late hadronization. C1 Univ Birmingham, Birmingham, W Midlands, England.

We study the dynamical magnetic susceptibility and find a very rich spectrum with several modes corresponding to a fundamental particle and its bound states. The approach is based on the Bethe ansatz and the random phase approximation applied to the interchain exchange. C1 Brookhaven Natl Lab, Dept Phys, Upton, NY 11973 USA.

We demonstrate that the spin-diffusion coefficient becomes independent of the Hund's coupling J(H) in the range of parameters J(H)S>W>T, W being the bandwidth, relevant to colossal magnetoresistive manganites in the metallic part of their phase diagram. Our study reveals a close correspondence as well as some counterintuitive differences between the results on Bethe and hypercubic lattices. Our results are in accord with neutron-scattering data and with previous theoretical work for high temperatures. C1 Univ Calif Irvine, Dept Phys & Astron, Irvine, CA 92697 USA.

Our analysis not only spells out conditions for adiabatic evolution of eigenstates but also characterizes the motion of noneigenstates which cannot be obtained from the former in the absence of the superposition principle. We find that Aharonov-Anandan phases play the role of classical canonical actions and are conserved in the adiabatic evolution of noneigenstates. C1 Univ Texas, Dept Phys, Austin, TX 78712 USA.

Using a monochromatic beam tuned to various x-ray energies at the Argonne National Laboratory Advanced Photon Source and utilizing a newly commissioned x-ray liquid surfaces reflectometer, measurements at and away from ion absorption edges allow determination of the distribution of these ions as they accumulate near lipid membranes. As a model, the interaction of Ba2+ ions with DMPA(-) (1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidic acid) monolayers at the aqueous surface is studied. We find an unexpectedly large concentration of barium at the interface, approximate to1.5 per DMPA(-), forming a Stern layer of bound ions and a cloud of less densely bound ions near the lipid headgroups. This result can be understood only if one assumes that bound cations are partially speciated, e.g., as BaOH+. C1 Iowa State Univ, Ames Lab, Ames, IA 50011 USA.

An effective forward-biased p-n junction, without chemical dopants, was created in the nanotube by appropriately biasing the nanotube device. Electrical measurements show that the observed optical emission originates from radiative recombination of electrons and holes that are simultaneously injected into the undoped nanotube. These observations are consistent with a nanotube FET model in which thin Schottky barriers form at the source and drain contacts. This arrangement is a novel optical recombination radiation source in which the electrons and holes are injected into a nearly field-free region. Such a source may form the basis for ultrasmall integrated photonic devices. C1 IBM Corp, Div Res, Thomas J Watson Res Ctr, Yorktown Hts, NY 10598 USA.

For a sample known to be isolated, an artificial superlattice may be assumed and the numerical direct methods of crystallography applied to the continuous distribution of diffuse scattering in order to solve the phase problem. This method is applied to simulated soft-X-ray transmission speckle patterns from a two-dimensional array of gold balls of 50 nm diameter. The results are relevant to efforts to phase the scattering from many individual macromolecules that cannot be crystallized, and to the scattering from individual inorganic nanoparticles.

The I222 structure is known, but the P21212 form has not been solved before. X-ray diffraction data for the P21212 form were collected at a wavelength of 1.54 Angstrom and data for the I222 form were collected at three different wavelengths: 1.34, 1.07 and 0.98 Angstrom. The amount of anomalous signal from one Mn and eight S atoms in these data sets varies from 1.24% to as low as 0.56%. The dual-space direct-methods program SHELXD, run against the Bijvoet differences, gave a clear solution of all anomalous scatterers for all data sets. The Mn positions only were used for SAD phasing of all four data sets. The electron-density map after density modification, resulting from the phasing of a single-wavelength data set and based purely on the anomalous deltaf" contribution, was clearly interpretable; an almost complete model of the protein was built by wARP without human intervention in all four cases. As far as is known, this is the first time that an anomalous signal as low as 0.6% has successfully been used to determine the structure of a macromolecule.

The intramolecular charge-transfer (ICT) energies (E-max) of these compounds decrease within each of the series in the order R = Me > Ph > 2,4-DNPh > 2-Pym, as the electron-accepting ability of the pyridinium ring increases. Hyper-Rayleigh scattering with femtosecond 1300 or 800 nm losers yields fluorescence-free first hyperpolarizabilities beta, and static first hyperpolarizabilities beta(0)[H] are obtained via the two-state model. Dipole moment changes Deltamu(12) for the ICT transitions obtained from Stark spectroscopy afford beta(0)[S] values by using beta(0) = 3Deltamu(12)(mu(12))(2)/2 (E-max)(2) (mu(12) = transition dipole moment). The beta(0)[S] data show that the combination of pyridyl N-arylation with conjugation extension affords large increases in beta(0). The beta(0)[H] data generally agree with this conclusion, but resonance effects may explain some apparent anomalies. X-ray structural studies on various salts reveal that the use of tosylate anions is not a generally applicable approach to engineering noncentrosymmetric structures of pyridinium salts. However, trans-N-phenyl-4-(4-dimethylaminophenyl-4-buta-1,3-dienyl)pyridinium hexafluorophosphate adopts the polar space group Cc, and shows a very large powder second harmonic generation efficiency from a 1907 nm laser; which is similar to that of the well-studied material trans-4'-(dimethylamino)-N-methyl-4-stilbazolium tosylate (DAST).

The formation is composed of various materials and conductivity distribution within each material is heterogeneous. The distribution of materials in the study domain is characterized by an indicator function and the conductivity field within each material is assumed to be statistically stationary. Based on this assumption, the covariance function of log-hydraulic conductivity in the composite field is analytically derived and expressed in terms of the covariance of the indicator function and the statistics of log conductivity in every material. The NMM is used to investigate the effects of various uncertain parameters on flow and transport predictions in two case studies. It is shown from the case studies that the two-scale stochastic processes will both significantly influence the flow and transport predictions, especially for the variances of hydraulic head and solute fluxes. The case studies also show that the NMM can be used to study flow and transport in complex subsurface environments. In comparison with Monte Carlo simulation, NMM results are consistent with those obtained by Monte Carlo simulation method even when the total variance of log conductivity is larger than 1.

Limited information is available concerning the long-term SOC changes in turfgrass systems. The CENTURY simulation model offers an opportunity to predict long-term SOC trends based on mathematical representations of C-cycling processes in the soil-plant systems. The objectives of this study were to (i) evaluate the ability and effectiveness of the CENTURY model to simulate the long-term SOC dynamics in highly managed turfgrass ecosystems and (ii) simulate long-term SOC changes for golf course fairway and putting green scenarios with the CENTURY model. The CENTURY model simulations near Denver and Fort Collins, CO, indicate that turfgrass systems can serve as a C sink following establishment. Model estimates are that 23 to 32 Mg ha(-1) SOC were sequestered in the 0 to 20 cm below the soil surface after about 30 yr. Historic soil-testing data from parts of 16 golf courses with age ranging from 1 to 45 yr were used to compare with the simulated results. Model predictions of organic C accumulation compared reasonably well with observed SOC, with regression coefficients of 0.67 for fairways and 0.83 for putting greens. Our results suggest that the CENTURY model can be used to simulate SOC changes in turfgrass systems and has the potential to compare C sequestration under various turf management conditions. Simulation results also suggest that warming temperatures have greater degree of influence on SOC in turf systems compared with native grasslands.

Toroidal thermonuclear fusion reactors, such as tokamaks and stellarators, are unique for space propulsion, allowing a design with the magnetic configuration localized inside the toroidal magnetic field coils. Plasma energetic ions, including charged fusion products, can escape such closed configuration at certain conditions as a result of vertical drift in the toroidal rippled magnetic field. Escaping particles can be used for direct propulsion (because toroidal drift is directed one way vertically) or to create and heat externally confined plasma, so that the latter can be used for propulsion. In contrast to other fusion concepts proposed for space propulsion, this concept utilizes the natural drift motion of charged particles out of the closed magnetic field configuration. Also, using deuterium-tritium (D-T) plasma is a novel way to use fusion neutrons with the energy of 14 MeV for direct propulsion ("neutron rocket") for out of solar system missions. A special design of the blanket of the reactor allows neutrons to escape the device in a preferable direction. This provides a direct (partial) conversion of fusion energy into thrust.

The objective is to better understand the mechanisms that govern the characteristics and development of three-dimensional, compressible base flows. Laser Doppler velocimetry was used to measure both mean velocity components and turbulence statistics. The results reveal all expected base How features, including a low-speed recirculation region, a separated shear layer, a reattachment region, and a trailing wake. The distance from the base to the rear stagnation point in this three-dimensional base flow is reduced by 55% as compared to the corresponding axisymmetric base flow. The shear layer in the leeward region of the How turns sharply toward the radial centerline, resulting in a shift of the flow stagnation location toward the windward side of the base flow. In addition, the shear layer in the leeward plane thickens at a substantially faster rate than in either the windward or side planes. The turbulent stresses in the windward region of the shear layer are larger in magnitude than observed in either the leeward or side regions. The peak stresses measured in this three-dimensional base flow are located in the reattachment region, in direct contrast to axisymmetric results, where peak stresses were measured in the shear layer just upstream of reattachment.

This study examined the morphology and measured the particle surface area of aerodynamically size-separated powders and process-sampled particles of beryllium metal, beryllium oxide, and copper-beryllium alloy. The beryllium metal powder consisted of compact particles, whereas the beryllium oxide powder and particles were clusters of smaller primary particles. Specific surface area (SSA) results for all samples (N=30) varied by a factor of 37, from 0.56 +/- 0.07 m(2)/g (for the 0.4-0.7 mum size fraction of the process-sampled reduction furnace particles) to 20.8 +/- 0.4 m(2)/g (for the less than or equal to0.4 mum size fraction of the metal powder). Large relative differences in SSA were observed as a function of particle size for the powder of beryllium metal, from 4.0 +/- 0.01 m(2)/g (for the particle size fraction >6 mum) to 20.8 +/- 0.44 m(2)/g (for the particle size fraction less than or equal to0.4 mum). In contrast, little relative difference in SSA (<25%) was observed as a function of particle size for the beryllium oxide powder and particles collected from the screening operation. The SSA of beryllium metal powder decreases with increasing particle size, as expected for compact particles, and the SSA of the beryllium oxide powders and particles remains constant as a function of particle size, which might be expected for clustered particles. These associations illustrate how process-related factors can influence the morphology and SSA of beryllium materials. To avoid errors in predicting bioavailability of beryllium and the associated risks for CBD, the mechanisms of particle formation should be understood and the SSA of beryllium particles should be measured directly.

Difference Fourier maps clearly showed H atoms positions near those O atoms at the midpoints of the tunnel edges. The O-H vectors point toward the Cl sites at the center of the tunnel, and weak hydrogen bonds likely form between the framework 0 atoms and Cl. The Cl position is near the center of a prism defined by the eight hydroxyl H atoms. The Cl atoms fill similar to2/3 of the tunnel sites, suggesting an ordering scheme in a given tunnel with every third tunnel site vacant. Such an arrangement allows the Cl anions to increase their separation distance along a tunnel by displacing away from one another toward their respective adjacent vacancies. The Fe-O octahedra in akaganeite are distorted with Fe-(O, OH) distances ranging from 1.94 to 2.13 Angstrom and show three longer and three shorter Fe-O distances; as expected the longer distances are associated with the OH- anions. Temperature-resolved synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data and Rietveld refinements were used to investigate changes in the akagandite structure and its transformation into hematite as it was heated from 26 to 800 degreesC. Rietveld refinements revealed surprising consistency in all unit-cell parameters between room temperature and similar to225 degreesC, resulting in nearly zero thermal expansion of the akaganeite structure over a 200 degreesC interval. Above similar to225 degreesC, the unit-cell volume gradually decreased, primarily in response to decreases in c and b, and an increase in the P angle. The a parameter remained nearly constant until similar to225 degreesC and increased thereafter. Akaganeite started to transform to hematite in the temperature range 290 to 310 degreesC with no evidence for maghemite as an intermediate phase.

Data were corrected for adsorbed water, the only significant impurity to the ideal formula Al2Si2O5(OH)(4). Enthalpies of dickite dissolution into molten lead borate at 702 degreesC and of dickite formation from the oxides and from the elements at 25 degreesC and 1 bar are 356.3 +/- 3.3 kJ/mol, -31.1 +/- 4.2 kJ/mol, and -4099.8 +/- 4.8 kJ/mol, respectively. Using entropy data from the literature, the standard Gibbs free energy of dickite formation from the elements at 25 degreesC is -3777.5 +/- 4.8 kJ/mol. This value is 7 to 25 kJ/mol more endothermic than literature values obtained for other dickites by calculations, solubility measurements, or calorimetry. Since the Saint Claire dickite is almost pure, the applied corrections are very small and these results are likely to be the most reliable of the available data. The Gibbs free energy of formation of the Saint Claire dickite at 25 degreesC and 1 bar is 12 to 25 kJ/mol less negative than data obtained for kaolinite using the same and different techniques. This trend is unlikely to reverse at higher temperature and/or pressure in the range of kaolin mineral occurrences. Thus, the new data further corroborate our earlier findings that dickite is thermodynamically metastable relative to kaolinite. This is in agreement with results obtained by mineral synthesis and with most of the observations of kaolinite and dickite occurrences in natural environments. However, further investigations are required to fully explain the transformation of kaolinite to dickite, which appears to occur during diagenesis.

Here we report the temperature dependence of the cation distribution in the 4-2 spinel synthetic qandilite (Mg2TiO4) from in situ time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction experiments to 1416 degreesC. At room temperature, Mg2TiO4 is confirmed to have completely inverse cation distribution, with Ti atoms occupying half the octahedrally coordinated cation sites. Cation disordering becomes observable above about 900 degreesC, with 4% of the Ti occupying the tetrahedral site by 1416 degreesC. The rate of reordering on cooling is fast, such that high-temperature disorder is not preserved on cooling to room temperature. The thermodynamics of the change in cation distribution with temperature can be described by an enthalpy of Mg-Ti disorder of -46.1 +/- 0.4 kJ/mol.

The utility of this ion source for comprehensive chemical analysis of a series of aromatic and halogenated hydrocarbons is illustrated in this manuscript. To highlight the analytical utility of this transient ion source, it was connected to a gas chromatograph for the mass spectrometric determination of mixtures containing benzene, toluene, o-xylene, cymene, tert-butylbenzene, carbon tetrachloride, chloroform, chlorobenzene, tetrachlorethane, and dichlorobenzene. Explicit chemical analysis was accomplished by introducing the GC eluent into a pulsed glow discharge operating at a rate of 100 Hz with a 50% duty cycle. Using three independent digitizers for time-gated acquisition in three separate time regimes, nearly concurrent collection of elemental, structural, and molecular information was accomplished. In general, elemental information was obtained during the first 0.015 ms after the plasma onset; structural information, as ascertained from molecular fragmentation, was obtained during the plateau time regime when the plasma pulse is at a steady state, whereas molecular M+ and MH+ ions were obtained during the afterpeak time regime, that is, after the cessation of the plasma power pulse.

X-ray excitation and detection of the separated analytes was done using an EDAX Eagle 11 micro X-ray fluorescence system equipped with a polycapillary Rh target excitation source and a SiLi detector. It was demonstrated that this prototype system could be used for the separation and detection of species containing two different metals from one another, specifically Cu and Co. Free Co could also be separated from Co bound to cyanocobalamin (vitamin B-12). Two organic compounds were also separated from one another, a large biological protein, ferritin, from a small biological organic, cyanocobalamin. Preliminary average detection limits obtained on this system were on the order of 10(-4) M and compared favorably to those reported for the similar technique of CE-synchrotron XRF. CEMXRF allows for nondestructive, simultaneous, on-line, benchtop elemental analysis for chemical speciation applications.

The research work marries the high sensitivity of CRDS with a low-power microwave plasma source to develop a new instrument that yields high sensitivity and capability for elemental measurements. CRDS can provide orders of magnitude improvement in sensitivity over conventional absorption techniques. Additional benefit is gained from a compact microwave plasma source that possesses the advantages of low power and low-plasma gas flow rate, which are of benefit for atomic absorption measurements. A laboratory CRDS system consisting of a tunable dye laser is used in this work for developing a scientific base and demonstrating the feasibility of the technique. A laboratory-designed and -built sampling system for solution sample introduction is used for testing. The ring-down signals are monitored using a photomultiplier tube and recorded using a digital oscilloscope interfaced to a computer. Lead is chosen as a typical element for the system optimization and characterization. The effects of baseline noise from the plasma source are reported. A detection limit of 0.8 ppb (10(-10)) is obtained with such a device. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, CACS, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA.

Hence, the gradual degeneration and destruction of articular cartilage, which is characteristic of degenerative joint diseases, is only detected at a late stage when the cartilage is lost and the joint space that it once occupied narrows. The development of an X-ray imaging technique that could detect both the degenerative cartilage and bone features of joint diseases is of special interest. Here we show, for the first time, that a high-contrast imaging technique, diffraction-enhanced X-ray imaging (DEI), allows the visualization of articular cartilage of both disarticulated and articulated rabbit knee joints. Furthermore, a single cartilage lesion can be visualized within an intact joint. The results suggest that DEI has the potential to be of use in the study of cartilage degeneration.

Biochemical reactions probably responsible for synthesizing these three monomers from sucrose, and then polymerizing the monomers into lignin, were analysed to estimate the amount of sucrose required to produce a unit of lignin. Included in the calculations were amounts of respiration required to provide NADPH (from NADP(+)) and ATP (from ADP) for lignin biosynthesis. Two pathways in the middle stage of monomer biosynthesis were considered: one via tyrosine (found in monocots) and the other via phenylalanine (found in all plants). If lignin biosynthesis proceeds with high efficiency via tyrosine, 76.9, 70.4 and 64.3 % of the carbon in sucrose can be retained in the fraction of lignin derived from p-coumaryl alcohol, coniferyl alcohol and sinapyl alcohol, respectively. The corresponding carbon retention values for lignin biosynthesis via phenylalanine are less, at 73.2, 65.7 and 60.7 %, respectively. Energy (i.e. heat of combustion) retention during lignin biosynthesis via tyrosine could be as high as 81.6, 74.5 and 67.8 % for lignin derived from p-coumaryl alcohol, coniferyl alcohol and sinapyl alcohol, respectively, with the corresponding potential energy retention values for lignin biosynthesis via phenylalanine being less, at 77.7, 69.5 and 63.9 %, respectively. Whether maximum efficiency occurs in situ is unclear, but these values are targets that can be considered in: (1) plant breeding programmes aimed at maximizing carbon or energy retention from photosynthate; (2) analyses of (minimum) metabolic costs of responding to environmental change or pest attack involving increased lignin biosynthesis; (3) understanding costs of lignification in older tissues; and (4) interpreting carbon balance measurements of organs and plants with large lignin concentrations.

Suppression subtractive hybridization was then used to characterize the genomic differences that distinguish three of the non-anthrax-causing bacilli from B. anthracis Ames. Ninety-three DNA sequences that were present in B. anthracis but absent from the non-anthrax-causing Bacillus genomes were isolated. Furthermore, 28 of these sequences were not found in a collection of 10 non-anthrax-causing Bacillus species but were present in all members of a representative collection of B. anthracis strains. These sequences map to distinct loci on the B. anthracis genome and can be assayed simultaneously in multiplex PCR assays for rapid and highly specific DNA-based detection of B. anthracis.

In this study, we investigated the physical spacing and nucleotide mismatch tolerance between capture and proximal chaperone detector probes that are required to achieve species-specific 16S rRNA detection for the dissimilatory metal and sulfate reducer 16S rRNAs. Microarray specificity was deduced by analyzing signal intensities across replicate microarrays with a statistical analysis-of-variance model that accommodates well-to-well and slide-to-slide variations in microarray signal intensity. Chaperone detector probes located in immediate proximity to the capture probe resulted in detectable, nonspecific binding of nontarget rRNA, presumably due to base-stacking effects. Species-specific rRNA detection was achieved by using a 22-nt capture probe and a 15-nt detector probe separated by 10 to 14 nt along the primary sequence. Chaperone detector probes with up to three mismatched nucleotides still resulted in species-specific capture of 16S rRNAs. There was no obvious relationship between position or number of mismatches and within- or between-genus hybridization specificity. From these results, we conclude that relieving secondary structure is of principal concern for the successful capture and detection of 16S rRNAs on planar surfaces but that the sequence of the capture probe is more important than relieving secondary structure for achieving specific hybridization.

Grazing-incidence x-ray reflectance at E = 8 keV was used to characterize the interface widths, as well as the temporal and thermal stability in both periodic and depth-graded W/SiC structures, whereas synchrotron radiation was used to measure the hard x-ray reflectance of a depth-graded multilayer designed specifically for use in, the range Esimilar to150-170 keV. We have modeled the hard x-ray reflectance using newly derived optical constants, which we determined from reflectance versus incidence angle measurements also made using synchrotron radiation, in the range E = 120-180 keV. We describe our experimental investigation in detail, compare the new W/SiC multilayers with both W/Si and W/B4C films that have been studied previously, and discuss the significance of these results with regard to the eventual development of a hard x-ray nuclear line telescope.

The 300-mW 785-nm near-infrared (NIR) laser source used with many commercially available instruments has sufficient power to burn samples. This destructive potential is of special concern if the sample is irreplaceable (e.g., fine art, forensic evidence, or for in vivo medical diagnostics) or a hazardous energetic material (explosive or pyrophoric samples). This study quantifies the heat resulting from illuminating an extensive color array with a 785-nm NIR laser and relates these values to the hazards associated with Raman analysis. In general, darker colors were found to be more problematic. Since visible colors are not ideally correlated with absorptive characteristics at 785 nm, predictions based on thermography are not perfect; however, this approximation gives a useful method for predicting the thermal response of unknown samples to NIR exposure. Additionally, experimental studies evaluated the analysis of flammable organic solvents, propellants, military explosives, mixtures containing military explosives, shock-sensitive explosives, and gunpowders (i.e., smokeless, black, and Pyrodex powders). Safety guidelines for analysis are presented. C1 Pacific NW Natl Lab, Richland, WA 99352 USA. RP Harvey, SD (reprint author), Pacific NW Natl Lab, Battelle Blvd,POB 999,P8-50, Richland, WA 99352 USA.

Using Hα emission as a proxy for the chromospheric activity level of the M dwarf, we investigated correlations between the activity level and properties of the system. Compared with field M dwarfs previously observed in the Palomar/MSU Survey, we see a slightly higher active fraction of early-type stars, with activity levels similar to the field.

Expressed in terms of the neutrino energy density, we find 1.7 < N-v < 3.5 (95% CL). In particular, we show that phenomenological four neutrino models including a sterile state (not participating in SU(2)(L) x U(1)(Y) interactions) unavoidably thermalize a fourth neutrino, and are highly disfavored in the standard minimal model of primordial nucleosynthesis, if the systematic uncertainty in the primordial helium abundance is small. We describe plausible extensions of the minimal model which evade this constraint. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

J. Smith 2.7 m Telescope starting 14.31 hr after the gamma-ray burst. GRB 021004 is the first burst afterglow for which the spectrum is dominated by absorption lines from high-ionization species with multiple velocity components separated by up to 3000 km s(-1). We argue that these absorption lines are likely to come from shells around a massive progenitor star. The high velocities and high ionizations arise from a combination of acceleration and. ash ionization by the burst photons and the wind velocity and steady ionization by the progenitor. We also analyze the broadband spectrum and the light curve so as to distinguish the structure of gas within 0.3 pc of the burster. We delineate six components in the medium surrounding the gamma-ray burst along the line of sight: (1) The z similar or equal to 2.293 absorption lines arise from the innermost region closest to the burst, where the ionization will be highest and the 3000 km s(-1) velocity comes from the intrinsic velocity of a massive star wind boosted by acceleration from the burst flux. For a mass-loss rate of similar to6 x 10(-5) M. yr(-1), this component also provides the external medium with which the jet collides over radial distances 0.004-0.3 pc to create the afterglow light. (2) A second cloud or shell produces absorption lines with a relative velocity of 560 km s(-1). This component could be associated with the shell created by the fast massive star wind blowing a bubble in the preceding slow wind at a radial distance on the order of 10 pc or by a clump at similar to0.5 pc accelerated by the burst. (3) More distant clouds within the host galaxy that lie between 30 and 2500 pc and have been ionized by the burst will create the z similar or equal to 2.33 absorption lines. (4-6) If the three bumps in the afterglow light curve at 0.14, 1.1, and 4.0 days are caused by clumps or shells in the massive star wind along the line of sight, then the radii and overdensities of these are 0.022, 0.063, and 0.12 pc and 50%, 10%, and 10%, respectively. The immediate progenitor of the gamma-ray burst could be either a WC-type Wolf-Rayet star with a high-velocity wind or a highly evolved massive star the original mass of which was too small for it to become a WN-type Wolf-Rayet star. In summary, the highly ionized lines with high relative velocities most likely come from shells or clumps of material close to the progenitor, and these shells were plausibly produced by a massive star soon before its collapse.

Although it was designed as a very high energy (few hundred GeV threshold) water-Cerenkov gamma-ray observatory, it could also be used to study solar energetic particles (SEPs). By recording scaler data, which correspond to photomultiplier tube singles rates, it was sensitive to muons and small showers from hadronic primary particles with rigidities above similar to4 GV. Milagrito simultaneously recorded air-shower trigger data of primary particles with energies greater than similar to100 GeV that provide the data to help reconstruct event directions. The Milagrito scalers registered a ground-level enhancement associated with the 1997 November 6 SEP event and X9 solar. are. At its peak, the enhancement was 22 times the background rms fluctuations. Based on comparisons to neutron monitor and satellite data, we find evidence that the rigidity power-law spectrum for the differential flux of energetic protons steepened above similar to4 GV and that the acceleration site was high in the corona (at similar to3 R-circle dot above the photosphere), assuming that a CME-driven shock was responsible for the ground-level enhancement.

In this paper we present a general framework to derive approximate equilibrium configurations suitable to describe pre-eruption states, using an approach originally developed for the Earth's magnetotail but including magnetic shear and gravity. The solutions hold for configurations that vary most strongly in one spatial direction perpendicular to the direction of gravity. We illustrate the approach by deriving configurations for both force-free and non-force-free states. The variable models contain a twisted flux rope connected to the photosphere and anchored in the corona by an overlying arcade. The models may also include a magnetic configuration above the flux rope typical for helmet streamers. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA. Univ New Hampshire, Durham, NH 03824 USA.

The agreement between this derivation and results from past collapsar simulations (MacFadyen & Woosley) is excellent, implying that we have captured the essential physics. We then use this derivation to study a range of progenitors for collapsar GRBs. We derive how much of the star will accrete onto the black hole core before the infall density drops below this critical density, leading to an estimate of the remnant black hole mass for GRBs and hypernovae. We also estimate the time delays between gravity-wave or neutrino signals and the onset of the explosion or burst event. This derivation, combined with future observational constraints, provides a physical insight into the structure of the GRB progenitor. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA.

By means of these simulations, we are able to determine the conditions for which stable equilibria no longer exist. Our results imply that it is possible to achieve a loss of equilibrium even though the ends of the flux rope are anchored to the solar surface. However, in order to have the flux rope escape, it is necessary to modify the configuration by eliminating the arcade field. C1 Univ Michigan, Ctr Space Environm Modeling, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 USA.

The measurements are used to derive emission factors from ships of three species not reported previously, namely, black carbon, accumulation-mode particles, and cloud condensation nuclei (CCN), as well as for carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide (CO), methane (CH4) non-methane hydrocarbons, sulfur dioxide (SO2) nitrogen oxides (NOx), and condensation nuclei. The effects of fuel grade and engine power on ship emissions are discussed. The emission factors are combined with fuel usage data to obtain estimates of global annual emissions of various particles and gases from ocean-going ships. Global emissions of black carbon, accumulation-mode particles, and CCN from ocean-going ships are estimated to be 19-26 Gg yr(-1), (4.4-6.1) x 10(26) particles yr(-1), and (1.0-1.5) x 10(26) particles yr(-1), respectively. Black carbon emissions from ocean-going ships are similar to0.2% of total anthropogenic emissions. Emissions of NOx and SO2 from ocean-going ships are similar to10-14% and similar to3-4%, respectively, of the total emissions of these species from the burning of fossil fuels, and similar to40% and similar to70%, respectively, of the total emissions of these species from the burning of biomass. Global annual emissions of CO and CH4 from ocean-going ships are similar to2% and similar to2-5%, respectively, of natural oceanic emissions of these species. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.

These measurements were combined with micrometeorological flux measurements to determine emission flux measurements for various VOCs. This measurement program was part of project NOVA (Natural emissions of Oxidant precursors: Validation of techniques and Assessment) to estimate the flux of VOCs. Average emissions of VOCs (and standard error) was estimated to be 4900 +/- 700 mug/m(2)/h out of which emission for methanol averaged (3450 +/- 420) mug/m(2)/h. A methanol emission rate of 35 mug/g/h was calculated for maize from the estimated emission of methanol and biomass density for the site. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

Relativistic many-body perturbation theory (MBPT), including the Breit interaction, is used to evaluate retarded El matrix elements in length and velocity forms. The calculations start from a 1s(2)2s(2)2p(6) Dirac-Fock potential. First-order MBPT is used to obtain intermediate coupling coefficients and second-order MBPT is used to calculate transition matrix elements. Contributions from negative-energy states are included in the second-order El matrix elements to ensure gauge-independence of transition amplitudes. Transition energies used in the calculation of oscillator strengths and transition rates are from second-order MBPT. Transition rates, line strengths, and oscillator strengths are compared with critically evaluated experimental values and with results from other recent calculations. We present data for selected transitions between 10 of the possible 73 even-parity 3s3p(2), 3s(2)3d states and 29 of the possible 75 odd-parity 3s(2)3p, 3p(3), and 3s3p3d states in Al-like ions. Trends of the transition rates as functions of Z are illustrated graphically for 220 of the 3220 possible transitions. Lifetimes of the 10 even-parity lower levels and the 27 odd-parity upper levels are given for Z = 15-100. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Current transients were acquired via a step polarization impedance spectroscopy technique: the voltage was stepped between -1 and 1 V in 50 mV increments, while current transients and surface morphology were digitally recorded. Numerical Laplace transformation applied to the current transient data provided frequency-dependent admittance (impedance(-1)). Simultaneous AFM imaging of dry surfaces, initially hydrated surfaces, and surfaces immersed and changing with potential revealed that all sample surfaces were covered with protective titanium oxide domes that grew in area and coalesced due to hydration and as a function of increasing applied voltage and time. Reversal of dome growth did not occur upon voltage reduction, while impedance behavior was quasi-reversible, suggesting independence between structural and electrical properties. Oxide growth appeared to occur in part by lateral spreading and overgrowth of domes at the oxide-solution interface. Interfacial impedance data reflect oxide passivity and n-type semiconductor behavior. Non-linear Mott-Schottky fits specified multi-layer donor concentrations between 10(18) and 10(19) cm(-3), depending on the surface. (C) 2003 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.

Potential long-term demand for corn stover by non-fermentative applications in the United States is estimated to be about 20 million dry t/yr, assuming that corn stover-based products replace 50% of both hardwood pulp and wood-based particleboard, and that 50% of all furfural production is from corncobs. Hence, 60-80 million dry t/yr of corn stover should be available to fermentative routes. To achieve an ethanol production potential of 11 billion L (3 billion gal) per year (a target level for a non-niche feedstock), about 40% of the harvestable corn stover is needed. This amount should be available as long as the diversion of corn stover to non-ethanol fermentative products remains limited. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

An aqueous soluton at 20% acetonitrile (0.1% TFA) was used as the mobile phase. The competitive isotherm data were fitted to four different models: Langmuir, Bilangmuir, Langmuir-Freundlich, and Toth. These data fitted best to a Bilangmuir isotherm model. The influence of the pressure on the retention factors of the two peptides was found to be small and was not investigated in detail. The band profiles of large samples of the single components and of their mixtures were recorded. The overloaded profiles calculated using either the equilibrium-dispersive or POR model are in excellent agreement with the experimental profiles in all cases. Our results confirm that the competitive isotherm data derived from mixtures may suffice for a reasonably accurate prediction of the band profiles of all mixtures of the two components, provided their composition is close to 1/1.

The growing threat of climate change provides an added motivation for the risk community to understand better this area of opportunity. While analyses of climate change mitigation typically focus on the emissions-reduction characteristics of sustainable energy technologies, less often recognised are a host of synergistic ways in which these technologies also offer adaptation benefits, e.g. making buildings more resilient to natural disasters. While there is already some relevant activity, there remain various barriers to expanding these efforts significantly. Achieving successful integration of sustainable energy considerations with risk-management objectives requires a more proactive orientation, and coordination among diverse actors and industry groups.

MicroCT with 14 keV x-rays mapped the spatial distribution of mineral at the 1.3 mum level in a millimeter-sized fragment of a mature portion of the keel. Two rows of low absorption channels (i.e., primary channels) slightly less than 10 mum in diameter were found running linearly from the flange to the base of the keel and parallel to its sides. The primary channels paralleled the oral edge of the keel, and the microCT slices revealed a planar secondary channel leading from each primary channel to the side of the keel. The primary and secondary channels were more or less coplanar and may correspond to the soft tissue between plates of the carinar process. Transmission x-ray diffraction with 80.8 keV x-rays and a 0.1 mm beam mapped the distribution of calcite crystal orientations and the composition Ca1-xMgxCO3 of the calcite. Unlike the variable Mg concentration and highly curved prisms found in the keel of Paracentrotus lividus, a constant Mg content (x = 0.13) and relatively little prism curvature was found in the keel of Lytechinus variegatus.

The concentrations of charge carriers were rigorously included in this model through defect equilibria with the chemical environment at each membrane surface and through balance equations and a virtual pressure formalism within the membrane. Hydrogen permeation rates through proton-electron-hole mixed conductors were simulated using this framework under open-circuit, short-circuited, and applied potential operating modes. The sensitivity of H-2 permeation rates to the reduction-oxidation potentials at each side of the membrane and to the membrane properties (e.g. electron/hole diffusivity, oxygen binding energy) was examined in terms of the mobility and concentration of each charge carrier in order to identify rate-limiting steps for H-2 transport. These simulations showed that electronic transport controls H-2 permeation rates in proton-electron-hole mixed conductors typically used for H-2 permeation, especially when hydrogen chemical potentials are significantly different in the two sides of the membrane. These electronic conduction limitations arise from a region of very low electronic conductivity within the membrane, caused by a shift in the predominant charge carriers from electron to holes with decreasing hydrogen chemical potential. Under these asymmetrical conditions, H-2 permeation rates increase more markedly when an external electron-conducting path is introduced than at lower chemical potential gradients. Such interplay between rate-controlling variables leads to complex effects of H-2 chemical potential gradients on permeation rates. The effects of intrinsic membrane properties on H-2 permeation were examined by systematic changes in the defect equilibrium constants. A decrease in oxygen binding energy, manifested in a stronger tendency for reduction of the oxide membrane material, leads to higher electron concentrations and to higher rates for open-circuit operation, during which electron conduction limits H-2 transport rates.

The Medial Pivot total knee design features a near constant radius of curvature of the femoral component. The tibial surface is highly congruent and asymmetric, permitting a medial pivot motion during knee flexion. The purpose of the current study was to analyze and compare the gait kinematics of the Sigma(R) posterior cruciate-retaining total knee implant, the Advance(R) Traditional posterior cruciate-retaining total knee implant, and the Advance(R) Medial Pivot knee implant using fluoroscopic analysis. In vivo kinematics were determined for 15 clinically successful total knee arthroplasties. Five knee implants were evaluated from each group. The authors analyzed the kinematics of knee motion during the stance phase of gait for each patient. On average, subjects with the Medial Pivot knee implant had a medial pivot motion. Both posterior cruciate-retaining designs had a paradoxical roll forward of the tibia on femur during knee flexion and had greater excursion of both condyles during knee flexion than the medial pivot de sign. Nine of 10 of the posterior cruciate-retaining designs had condylar lift-off averaging 1.7 mm whereas only one Medial Pivot knee implant had condylar lift-off measuring 1.1 mm.

To facilitate a large range of diagnostics on microgravity flames, it is useful to create an equivalent microbuoyant condition in an earth-based laboratory. This experiment simulates microbuoyancy using electric fields to balance local convection in a region of the flame. Previous studies used N-2 coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) temperature measurements to show that a region exists in which the temperature profile corresponds to that of a spherically symmetric diffusion profile, as would be expected in a true microgravity environment. The current study utilizes CARS thermometry and laser induced fluorescence (LIF) to examine the temperature and 0, concentration profiles in a region below the flame. The results show that the electrically balanced flame apparatus produces a spherically symmetric wedge of microbuoyant flame extending 10degrees from the vertical axis of the capillary flame arrangement; thereby quantifying the extent of the microbuoyant region.

The Markstein number, which relates these two quantities, also was measured. Previous studies had considered the simple geometries of counterflow or spherical flames, but in this case a complex geometry was generated by interacting a flame,with a vortex, such that both the strain and curvature components of the stretch rate are present. The diagnostics used were shadowgraph movies and simultaneous particle imaging velocimetry and OH planar laser-induced fluorescence. The overall conclusion is that the theory of flame stretch remains valid for these unsteady complex conditions, because the measured trends are found to be in agreement with trends predicted by the theory. That is, propagation speeds decrease at locations where positive stretch is applied to stable (lean propane-air and rich methane-air) flames. Conversely, propagation speeds increase where positive stretch was applied to unstable (lean methane-air) flames. The shape of the profiles of propagation speed along stable flames is opposite to that of unstable flames, as is predicted by the theory. However, values of Markstein number show large variations and are much larger than that of an outwardly propagating spherical flame. Negative strain regions are of particular interest because they previously had not been studied experimentally; these regions yield the largest propagation speeds for the stable cases and some negative speeds for the unstable cases.

The composites, each of which had the same urethane matrix, were produced by a rapid molding process suitable for high-volume automotive applications. The reinforcement for the first composite was a random chopped-glass-fiber, while the remaining two were reinforced with stitch-bonded carbon-fiber mats, one in a crossply layup, and the other in a quasi-isotropic layup. A pendulum device, representative of events such as tool drops, and a gas-gun projectile, representative of events such as kickups of roadway debris, were used to impact plate specimens. Brick-drop tests were also performed to assess the applicability of the baseline pendulum and gas-gun data to other events. Following the impacts, the damage areas were measured and the plates were cut into either tensile, standard compressive, or compression-after-impact specimens for determining strength degradation. The glass-fiber composite was least susceptible to damage, followed by the crossply carbon-fiber laminate, which had the same thickness. The quasi-isotropic carbon-fiber composite, which was thinner than the other two, sustained the most damage. While compressive strength was significantly degraded by moderate damage in the random-glass-fiber composite, tensile strength was not. On the other hand, both tensile and compressive strengths were degraded in the crossply carbon-fiber laminate (only compressive strength loss was measured in the quasi-isotropic laminate). Compressive strength degradation for a given damage area was similar in the two carbon-fiber laminates. Both showed lesser degradation than did the glass-fiber composite. For the quasi-isotropic carbon-fiber laminate, it was shown that strength degradation produced by an open circular hole provides a reasonable lower bound to the degradation due to an impact damage area of the same size.

The materials covered in this paper are by and large extracted from the three theses of the first three authors. The paper focuses on the state-space oriented system identification theory as specialized to structural dynamics governing equations of motion, a judicious use of wavelet transformation techniques for extracting impulse response functions, various input-output combinations for multi-input and multi-output problems, robust ways of identifying both proportional and non-proportional damping parameters, and the use of localized identification theory for damage detection from measured response data. The authors then offer several outstanding challenges in structural system identification theory and their applications. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

The intermetallics were manufactured by arc-melting stoichiometric amounts of Be and the alloying elements Al, Ti, and Fe as indicated. Composition and structure were verified with x-ray diffraction. Polarization data along with open-circuit potential measurements were used to make mixed potential predictions of the electrochemical activity of the beryllides in commercial grades of Be. These predictions were verfied for FeBe5, by arc-melting a button consisting of Be-10 at% FeBe5. For near-neutral and slightly alkaline pH, the beryllides were passive at all potentials examined. In pH 2 solution, the beryllides were active. To characterize the oxide film on as-prepared and post-immersion samples, angle-resolved x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used. In general, the near-surface oxide was stoichiormetric to hyper-stoichiometric oxidized Be. In some cases, selective dissolution was observed in the XPS data. In all cases, the oxide formed on samples exposed to pH 2 solution was thinner as compared to as-polished samples.

Application of pressure causes the structure to switch to a packing arrangement like that observed for the corresponding hydrogenous compound over the complete temperature range, with a higher pressure being required at lower temperatures. A pressure hysteresis occurs upon the release of pressure in the temperature range 303275 K and below similar to295 K the compound remains in the high pressure (high density) modification at 1 bar. As the temperature is raised from similar to296 to 298 K, the structure reverts progressively to the low-pressure modification. Using the Clapeyron equation, an enthalpy DeltaH of 259 cm(-1) at 260 K was evaluated for the transition. With zero applied pressure, a negative temperature expansion coefficient is observed above 230 K, apparently due to an increasing thermal population of the high-density packing arrangement at higher temperatures.

For the first time, the relative importance of ReO(4)(-) and the neutral rhenium species, Re(OH)04, is thermodynamically modeled in anoxic environments at ambient temperature where ReS(2) or its solid solution(s) is likely to control the solubility. This thermodynamic model suggests that ReO(4)(-) is an insignificant species in anoxic environments. In comparison to observed total rhenium concentrations in anoxic waters (from similar to3 to similar to30 pmol/kg), the contribution from ReO(4)(-) would be less than 10(-8) ppb (similar to4 x 10(-5) pmol/kg). In contrast, the neutral rhenium species is an important species in anoxic environments. At SigmaH(2)S= 10(-4) molal, 10(-2) ppb (similar to40 pmol/kg) of Re(OH)(4)(0) can exist in equilibrium with ReS(2) in the HS(-) field at a pH of about 9 or under the oxygen fugacity conditions imposed by the HS(-)/SO(4)(2-) redox couple, demonstrating its importance in anoxic environments. Applications of the present study to the Black Sea indicate that rhenium concentrations in the anoxic water column at depths ranging from 105 to similar to390 m can be successfully modeled as Re(OH)(4)(0), implying that the dominant species in solution may be Re(OH)(4)(0).

Herein, we characterize the skeletal pathologic conditions and confirm a role for Tg737 in skeletal patterning through transgenic rescue. Analyses were conducted in both the hypornorphic Tg737(orpk) allele, that results in duplication of digit one and in the null Tg737(Delta2-3betaGal) allele that is an embryonic lethal mutation exhibiting eight digits per I limb. In early limb buds, Tg737 expression is detected throughout the mesenchyme becoming concentrated in precartilage condensations at later stages. In situ analyses indicate that the Tg737(orpk) mutant limb defects are not associated with changes in expression of Shh, Ihh, HoxD11-13, Patched, BMPs, or Glis. Likewise, in Tg737(Delta2-3betaGal) mutant embryos, there was no change in Shh expression. However, in both alleles, Fgf4 was ectopically expressed on the anterior apical ectodermal. ridge. Collectively, the data argue for a dosage effect of Tg737 on the limb, phenotypes and that the polydactyly is independent of Shh misexpression.

The chert clasts were derived from the Senonian Mishash Formation, a chert-bearing chalk, which is widely exposed in the Nahal Zin drainage basin, the drainage system that supplied most of the material to the beach ridges. Simple exposure ages, assuming only exposure at the beach ridge sampling sites, range from 35 to 354 ky; using the ratio Al-26/Be-10, total clast histories range from 0.46 to 4.3 My, unrelated to the clasts' current position and exposure period on the late Pleistocene beach ridges, 160-177 m below sea level. Optically stimulated luminescence dating of fine sediments from the same and nearby beach ridges yielded ages of 20.0 +/- 1.4 ka and 36.1 +/- 3.3 ka. These ages are supported by the degree of soil development on the beach ridges and correspond well with previously determined ages of Lake Lisan, which suggest that the take reached its highest stand around 27 000 cal. years BP. If the clasts were exposed only once and than buried beyond the range of significant cosmogenic nuclide production, then the minimum initial exposure and the total burial times before delivery to the beach ridge are in the ranges 50-1300 ky and 390-3130 ky respectively. Alternatively, the initial cosmogenic dosing could have occurred during steady erosion of the source bedrock. Back calculating such rates of rock erosion suggests values between 0-4 and 12 m My(-1). The relatively long burial periods indicate extended sediment storage as colluvium on slopes and/or as alluvial deposits in river terraces. Some clasts may have been stored for long periods in abandoned Pliocene and early Pleistocene routes of Nahal Zin to the Mediterranean before being transported again back into the Nahal Zin drainage system and washed on to the shores of Lake Lisan during the late Pleistocene.

In this paper we report on the results of a long-term and multiple-scale study of interactions between runoff, erosion, and vegetation in a pi (n) over tilde on-juniper woodland in New Mexico. We use our results to address three knowledge gaps: (1) the temporal scaling relationships between precipitation and runoff; (2) the effects of spatial scale on runoff and erosion, as influenced by vegetation; and (3) the influence of disturbance on these relationships. On the basis of our results, we tested three assumptions that represent current thinking in these areas (as evidenced, for example, by explicit or implicit assumptions embedded in commonly used models). The first assumption, that aggregated precipitation can be used as a surrogate for total runoff in semiarid environments, was not verified by our findings. We found that when runoff is generated mainly by overland flow in these systems, aggregated precipitation amounts alone (by year, season, or individual event) are a poor predictor of runoff amounts. The second assumption, that at the hillslope and smaller scales runoff and erosion are independent of spatial scale, was likewise not verified. We found that the redistribution of water and sediment within the hillslope was substantial and that there was a strong and nonlinear reduction in unit-area runoff and erosion with increasing scale (our scales were slope lengths ranging from I in to 105 in). The third assumption, that disturbance-related increases in runoff and erosion remain constant with time, was partially verified. We found that for low-slope-gradient sites, disturbance led to accelerated runoff and erosion, and these conditions may persist for a decade or longer. On the basis of our findings, we further suggest that (a) disturbance alters the effects of scale on runoff and erosion in a predictable way-scale relationships in degraded areas will be fundamentally different from those in nondegraded areas because more runoff will escape-off site and erosion rates will be much higher; and (b) there exists a slope threshold, below which semiarid landscapes will eventually recover following disturbance and above which there will be no recovery without mitigation or remediation.

Natural zeolites are suitable candidate sorbents for use in the PSA process. Studies of volumetric gas adsorption Of CO(2), N(2), and O(2) on three natural zeolites, with different major cations, were conducted at 25 degreesC up to a pressure of 300 psi (2 x 10(6) Pa). Preferential adsorption Of CO(2) was observed with all three zeolites. The natural zeolite with the highest sodium content and highest surface area showed the highest CO(2) adsorption capacity. Competitive gas adsorption studies also showed that the zeolite with the highest sodium content gave the best separation Of CO(2) from the gas mixtures. Contact time did not affect the extent of adsorption of the zeolites.

Methane or natural gas was bubbled through a bed of either low-melting-point metals (e.g., lead or tin), granular or catalytic materials (e.g., silicon carbide, a-alumina, NiMo/gamma-alumina), or a mechanical mixture of molten metal and solid media. The methane conversions were found to be dependent upon the contact time between the methane and the heat transfer media, as well as on the methane bubble size. The most efficient systems used for the pyrolysis process were found to be the ones in which natural gas was bubbled through Mott porous metal filters, in a bed of either 4-in. Sn + SiC or Sn, with the product stream comprised of almost 80 and 70 vol % of hydrogen at 750degreesC, respectively. The main advantage of this proposed system is the ease of buoyant separation of the generated carbon byproduct from the liquid heat transfer media. These experiments lay the groundwork for developing technical expertise in producing pure hydrogen cost-effectively by utilizing the heat energy contained in the liquid metal coolant in Generation IV nuclear reactors.

This development can be largely traced to a well-designed and carefully implemented renewables portfolio standard (RPS). The RPS is a new policy mechanism that has received increasing attention as an attractive approach to support renewable power generation. Though replacing existing renewable energy policies with an as-of-yet untested approach in the RPS is risky, early experience from Texas suggests that an RPS can effectively spur renewables development and encourage competition among renewable energy producers. Initial RPS targets in Texas were well exceeded by the end of 2001, with 915 MW of wind installed in that year alone. RPS compliance costs appear negligible with new wind projects reportedly contracted for well under 3(US)cent/k/Wh, in part as a result of a 1.7(US)cent/kWh production tax credit, an outstanding wind resource and an RPS that is sizable enough to drive project economies of scale. Obliged retail suppliers have been willing to enter into long-term contracts with renewable generators, reducing important risks for both the developer and the retail supplier. Finally, the country's first comprehensive renewable energy certificate program has been put into place to monitor and track RPS compliance. (C) 2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.

Batch experiments at pH ranging from 3.0 to 6.0 and 25degreesC showed that 2: 1 layered clays illite and smectite catalyzed Cr(VI) reduction by oxalate. The catalytic effect increased as pH was decreased. The 1: 1 clay kaolinite had no catalytic effect under comparable conditions. Direct Cr(VI) reduction by reactive moieties associated with illite and montmorillonite was observed, but at a much slower rate than the catalytic pathway. Cr(VI) reduction by glyoxylic acid, glycolic acid, lactic acid, and mandelic acid was accelerated by illite, although aqueous phase reduction might occur in parallel. These results suggest that Cr(VI) reduction rates in subsurface environments rich in organic compounds may be elevated through catalysis of surface-bound metals and/or soluble species from the clay minerals, and as a result, higher than those expected from aqueous phase reaction alone. Such rate enhancement for Cr(VI) reduction needs to be accounted for when developing new remedial techniques for chromium site remediation or assessing its natural attenuation.

Geochemical and historical information about both areas are well documented. Following spillway breaches at SP in 1984 and the early 1990s, TB is inundated with contaminated sediments during storms. Bulk elemental composition of tree cores was determined using ICP-OES. Synchrotron X-ray fluorescence (SXRF) analysis showed that the metal contents of SP and TB cores were an order of magnitude higher than those from a reference site. TB cores were enriched with Ni in 1984 and 1991, corresponding with SP spillway breaches (containing 790 mg kg(-1) Ni in 1991). Cores from SP exhibited an extremely high Ni peak in 1996, approximately 5000 mg kg(-1), even though contaminant levels at SP did not change. The geochemical signature of contaminants recorded in TB annual rings reflected the significant sediment remobilization events consistent with the detailed history of the site, and at concentrations relative to their proximity to the source term. However, physiological processes occurring within impacted trees strongly influence the chronological accuracy of dendroanalysis and must be investigated further.

Chelsea soil humic acid SO ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY LA English DT Article ID MOLECULAR-DYNAMICS SIMULATIONS; RESONANCE MASS-SPECTROMETRY; NUCLEAR-MAGNETIC-RESONANCE; NATURAL ORGANIC-MATTER; AQUATIC FULVIC-ACIDS; ELECTROSPRAY-IONIZATION; INFRARED-SPECTROSCOPY; MULTIDIMENSIONAL NMR; SUBSTANCES; RESOLUTION AB This paper describes an integrated experimental and computational framework for developing 3-D structural models for humic acids (HAS). This approach combines experimental characterization, computer assisted structure elucidation (CASE), and atomistic simulations to generate all 3-D structural models or a representative sample of these models consistent with the analytical data and bulk thermodynamic/structural properties of HAS. To illustrate this methodology, structural data derived from elemental analysis, diffuse reflectance FT-IR spectroscopy, 1-D/2-D (1)H and (13)C solution NMR spectroscopy, and electrospray ionization quadrupole time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ESI QqTOF MS) are employed as input to the CASE program SIGNATURE to generate all 3-D structural models for Chelsea soil humic acid (HA). These models are subsequently used as starting 3-D structures to carry out constant temperature-constant pressure molecular dynamics simulations to estimate their bulk densities and Hildebrand solubility parameters. Surprisingly, only a few model isomers are found to exhibit molecular compositions and bulk thermodynamic properties consistent with the experimental data. The simulated (13)C NMR spectrum of an equimolar mixture of these model isomers compares favorably with the measured spectrum of Chelsea soil HA.

Nevertheless, conditions that may promote or inhibit U(VI) reduction are not well-defined. Recent descriptions of Ca-UO2-CO3 complexes indicate that these species may dominate the aqueous speciation of U(VI) in many environments. We monitored the bacterial reduction of U(VI) in bicarbonate-buffered solution in the presence and absence of Ca. XAFS measurements confirmed the presence of a Ca-U(VI)-CO3 complex in the initial solutions containing calcium. Calcium, at millimolar concentrations (0.45-5 mM), caused a significant decrease in the rate and extent of bacterial U(VI) reduction. Both facultative (Shewanella putrefaciens strain CN32) and obligate (Desulfovibrio desulfuricans, Geobacter sulfurreducens) anaerobic bacteria were affected by the presence of calcium. Reduction of U(VI) ceased when the calculated system Eh reached -0.046 +/- 0.001 V, based on the Ca2UO2(CO3)(3) --> UO2,cr couple. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that U is a less energetically favorable electron acceptor when the Ca-UO2-CO3 complexes are present. The results do not support Ca inhibition caused by direct interactions with the cells or with the electron donor as the reduction of fumarate or Tc(VII)O-4(-) under identical conditions was unaffected by the presence of Ca.

The magnitude and distribution of U, Ni, and other metals and the potential for trophic movement were studied to facilitate risk assessment and determine potential remedial action. Total and sequential extraction of TB soils demonstrated contaminant heterogeneity both spatially and between operationally defined fractions. Metal concentrations were elevated within riparian zone soils in contrast to stream sediments, suggesting off-site transport. Leaf tissue from TB contained an order of magnitude more Ni than tissue from reference sites. Leaves from streamside trees contained no U but elevated Ni up to 75.4 (+/-25) mg/kg dry weight (dry wt). Understory flora (Discanthelium sp. and Andropogon sp.) contained high concentrations of U associated with leaves up to 518 (+/-7.5) mg/kg dry weight U. The contrast in contaminant content and ratio of streamside and understory vegetation may result from resuspension of particulate U and Ni onto leaf surfaces and represents a potential pathway for trophic movement. The findings of this study have important ramifications for remediation of the ecosystem, suggesting that a strategy based on contaminant immobilization may be the most appropriate.

The reaction center complexes were obtained following isolation procedures that differed in chromatographic column material, washing buffer composition and detergent concentration. Two different types of cytochrome b (559) assays were performed. The absolute heme content in each preparation was obtained using the oxidized-minus-reduced difference extinction coefficient of cytochrome b (559) at 559 nm. The relative amount of D1 and cytochrome b (559) alpha-subunit polypeptide was also calculated for each preparation from immunoblots obtained using antibodies raised against the two polypeptides. The results indicate that the cytochrome b (559) heme content in photosystem II reaction center complexes can vary with the isolation procedure, but the variation of the cytochrome b (559) alpha-subunit/D1 polypeptide ratio was even greater. This variation was not found in the PSII-enriched membrane fragments used as the RC-isolation starting material, as different batches of membranes obtained from spinach harvested at different seasons of the year or those from sugar beets grown in a chamber under controlled environmental conditions lack variation in their alpha-subunit/D1 polypeptide ratio. A precise determination of the ratio using an RC1-control sample calibration curve gave a ratio of 1.25 cytochrome b (559) alpha-subunit per 1.0 D1 polypeptide in photosystem II membranes. We conclude that the variations found in the reaction center preparations were due to the different procedures used to isolate and purify the different reaction center complexes.

Like most EGF-TM7 receptor genes, EMR4 is localized on the short arm of chromosome 19, in close proximity to EMR1. Remarkably, due to a one-nucleotide deletion in exon 8, translation of human EMR4 would result in a truncated 232-amino acid protein lacking the entire seven-span transmembrane region. This deletion is not present in nonhuman primates, including chimpanzees, suggesting that EMR4 became nonfunctional only after human speciation, about five million years ago. Thus, EMR4 surprisingly accounts for a genetic difference between humans and primates related to immunity. C1 Univ Amsterdam, Acad Med Ctr, Expt Immunol Lab, NL-1100 DE Amsterdam, Netherlands.

CLICHE is conceived as a factory capable of producing around 20,000 light Higgs bosons per year. We discuss the requirements for the CLIC 1 beams and a laser backscattering system capable of producing a gammagamma total (peak) luminosity of 2.0 (0.36) x 10(34) cm(-2) s(-1) with E-CM(gammagamma) similar to 115 GeV. We show how CLICHE could be used to measure accurately the mass, (b) over barb, WW and gamma decays of a light Higgs boson. We illustrate how these measurements may distinguish between the Standard Model Higgs boson and those in supersymmetric and more general two-Higgs-doublet models, complementing the measurements to be made with other accelerators. We also comment on other prospects in gammagamma and e(-)gamma physics with CLICHE. C1 Lawrence Livermore Natl Lab, Livermore, CA 94550 USA. CERN, CH-1211 Geneva 23, Switzerland.

BARREL CALORIMETER; PARTON DISTRIBUTIONS; NUCLEON SCATTERING; PROTON COLLISIONS; JET FRAGMENTATION; EVENT GENERATOR; EP COLLISIONS; E+E-PHYSICS AB Cross sections for e(-)p neutral current deep inelastic scattering have been measured at a centre-of-mass energy of 318 GeV using an integrated luminosity of 15.9 pb(-1) collected with the ZEUS detector at HERA. Results on the double-differential cross-section d(2)sigma/dx dQ(2) in the range 185 < Q(2) < 50 000 GeV(2) and 0.0037 < x < 0.75, as well as the single-differential cross-sections dsigma/dQ(2), dsigma/dx and dsigma/dy for Q(2) > 200 GeV(2), are presented. To study the effect of Z-boson exchange, dsigma/dx has also been measured for Q(2) > 10 000 GeV(2). The structure function xF(3) has been extracted by combining the e(-)p results presented here with the recent ZEUS measurements of e(+)p neutral current deep inelastic scattering. All results agree well with the predictions of the Standard Model. C1 Argonne Natl Lab, Argonne, IL 60439 USA. Andrews Univ, Berrien Springs, MI 49104 USA. Univ Bologna, Bologna, Italy.

Using a tunnel diode oscillator with a novel coil geometry designed to avoid spurious contributions to lambda(T), we have established the existence of intrinsic and anomalous power law behaviour at low temperature. A systematic analysis raises the possibility that the unusual observations might be due to an extension of quantum criticality into the superconducting state.

Depinning is governed either by the barrier for defect nucleation or for defect motion, depending on whether the chain periodicity is commensurate or incommensurate with the surrounding arrays. We analyze the reduction of the gap between these barriers as a function of disorder. At large disorder, commensurability becomes irrelevant and the pinning force is reduced to a small fraction of the ideal shear strength of ordered channels. Implications for experiments on channel devices are discussed. C1 Leiden Univ, Kamerlingh Onnes Lab, NL-2300 RA Leiden, Netherlands. Univ Hamburg, Inst Theoret Phys 1, D-20355 Hamburg, Germany.

Applications that give rise to such problems include determination of groundwater or airborne pollutant sources from measurements of concentrations, and identification of sources of chemical or biological attacks. To address ill-posedness of the problem, we employ Tikhonov and total variation regularization. We present a variational formulation of the first-order optimality system, which includes the initial-boundary value state problem, the final-boundary value adjoint problem, and the space-time boundary value source problem. We discretize in the space-time volume using Galerkin finite elements. Several examples demonstrate the influence of the density of the sensor array, the effectiveness of total variation regularization for discontinuous sources, the invertibility of the source as the transport becomes increasingly convection-dominated, the ability of the space-time inversion formulation to track moving sources, and the optimal convergence rate of the finite element approximation.

Heterozygotes compose 10-15% of the European-American population, and have evidence of elevated body iron compared to homozygous normal people. Dietary iron content was hypothesized to interact with the HFE genotype to influence oxidative damage in mammary and colon tissue. Two groups of HFE-knockout mice were fed a standard iron diet (300 ppm) or a low iron diet (30 ppm). There was a significantly elevated concentration of malondialdehyde (by HPLC) in mammary (305 pmol/g vs. 166, p = .04) and colon (349 pmol/g vs. 226, p = .02) tissue among those mice on the standard iron diet compared to those on the low iron diet. These results suggest that dietary modification may affect the course of iron overload from HFE mutations. (C) 2003 Elsevier Inc.

Plastic shells will be permeation filled at room temperature then cooled to cryogenic temperatures before removal of the overpressure. The cryogenic pressure loader (CPL) was recently developed at Los Alamos National Laboratory as a testbed for studying the filling and layering of plastic target shells with DT A technical description of the CPL is provided. The CPL consists of a cryostat; which contains a high-pressure permeation cell, and has optical access for investigating beta layering. The cryostat is housed within a tritium glovebox that contains manifolds for supplying high-pressure DT The CPL shares some design elements with the cryogenic target handling system at the OMEGA facility to allow testing of tritium issues related to that system. The CPL has the capability to fill plastic targets by permeation to pressures up to 100 MPa and to cool them to 15 K. The CPL will accommodate a range of targets and may be modified for future experiments. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA. Gen Atom Co, San Diego, CA 92121 USA.

Target designs are unique in the ICF program, and targets are made on an individual basis. Costs for these targets are high due to the time required to machine, assemble, and characterize each target. To produce targets in high volume and at low cost, a polymer system is required that is amenable to scale up. High internal phase emulsion (HIPE) polystyrene is a robust system that offers great flexibility in terms of tailoring the density and incorporating metal dopants. Emulsions used to fabricate HIPE foams currently are made in a batch process. With the use of metering pumps for both the water and oil phases, emulsions can be produced in a continuous process. This not only makes these foams potential candidates for direct-drive capsules, but high-Z dopants can be metered in making these foams attractive for hohlraum components in indirect-drive systems. Preparation of HIPE foams are discussed for both direct-drive and indirect-drive systems. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, Div Mat Sci & Technol, Polymer & Coatings Grp, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA.

Prototype shells have been produced from a 100 mg/cm(3) density CH foam with an similar to4-mm diameter and 300 mum wall thickness. A triple-orifice droplet generator was used to form the shells using solutions of an internal water phase, an oil phase (divinylbenzene monomer, dibutyl phthalate solvent, and a radical initiator), and an external water phase. The lowest percent of nonconcentricity measured for a completed shell was 3%, and the lowest average percent of nonconcentricity for a batch of shells was 7%. A technique to overcoat the shells with a 1- to 5-mum-thick full-density polymer layer using an interfacial polycondensation reaction is being developed.

Protection schemes of LiPb and Flibe have been considered with two different thicknesses, and neutron fluxes in the outer Fe layer as a function of the time from target emission are given. Differences between the two solutions are noted and explained, and the effect of thickness is quantitatively shown. Time-dependent defect characterization of the Fe layer under pulse irradiation is presented. A new well-established multiscale modeling procedure injects, at the appropriate dose rate, damage cascades in a kinetic Monte Carlo lattice (microscopic) to study defect diffusion, clustering, and disintegration. The differences with a continuous irradiation for a still low fluence of irradiation are presented. Experimental validation of a multiscale modeling approach has been recognized and proposed in the Spanish VENUS-II project by using Fe ions on pure and ultrapure Fe. To study similar problems in SiC, new tools are needed to quantify the kinetic defects; results leading to the validation of a new tight binding molecular dynamics code for SiC are presented.

Since molten-salt jets are planned to protect the chamber wall, the beams move through vapor from the jets, and collisions between beam ions and this background gas both strip the ions and ionize the gas molecules. Radiation from the preheated target causes further beam stripping and gas ionization. Because of this stripping, beams for HIF are expected to require substantial neutralization in a target chamber. Much recent research has, therefore, focused on beam neutralization by electron sources that were neglected in earlier simulations, including emission from walls and the target, photoionization by the target radiation, and preneutralization by a plasma generated along the beam path. When these effects are included in simulations with practicable beam and chamber parameters, the resulting focal spot is approximately the size required by a distributed radiator target.

Liquid vortexes will coat the inside of the tubes next to the beam ports and will help eliminate the need for mechanical shutters to mitigate the venting of target chamber background gas into the final-focus magnet region. Before the neutralizing region, the beam space charge is high, and ablation and target debris deposition in the final-focus magnet region may cause voltage breakdown. Previous studies focused on evaluating the amount of target chamber debris reaching the entrance of the beam ports. The TSUNAMI code has now been used to assess the density, temperature, and velocity of the vortex debris transported similar to3 m up the beam tubes and reaching the final-focus magnet region, assuming that the liquid vortexes are perfectly absorbing surfaces. To further mitigate debris deposition in the final-focus magnet region, and prevent voltage breakdown, a "magnetic shutter" has been envisaged to divert the debris out of the final-focus region. This shutter will prevent the hot ablation debris from reaching the magnet region and, coupled to some ionizing scheme, will conveniently suppress early ingression of debris into the final-focus magnet region.

The primary function of the window is to isolate the active medium (excimer gas) from the excitation mechanism (field-emission diodes). The chosen window geometry must accommodate electron energy transfer >80% (750 keV) while maintaining the structural integrity during the mechanical load (1.3- to 2.0-atm base pressure differential, similar to0.5-atm cyclic pressure amplitude, 5-Hz repetition rate) and the thermal load across the entire hibachi area (similar to0.9 W.cm(-2)). In addition, the window must be chemically resistant to attack by fluorine free radicals (hydrofluoric acid, secondary). In accordance with these structural, functional, and operational parameters, a 22.4-mm square silicon prototype window, coated with 500-nm thin-film silicon nitride (Si3N4), has been fabricated. The window consists of 81 square panes 0.019 +/- 0.001 mm thick. The stiffened (orthogonal) sections are 0.065 mm wide and 0.500 mm thick (approximate). Assessment of silicon (and silicon nitride) material properties and computer-aided design modeling/analysis of the window design suggest that silicon may be a viable solution to inherent parameters and constraints.

NIF is being built by the National Nuclear Security Administration and when completed will be the world's largest laser experimental system, providing a national center to study inertial confinement fusion and the physics of matter at extreme energy densities and pressures. NIF will provide 192 energetic laser beams that will compress small fusion targets to conditions where they will ignite and burn, liberating more energy than is required to initiate the fusion reactions. NIF experiments will allow the study of physical processes at temperatures approaching 100 million K and 100 billion times atmospheric pressure. These conditions exist naturally only in the interior of stars and in nuclear weapons explosions. In the course of designing the world's most energetic laser system, a number of significant technology breakthroughs have been achieved Research is also underway to develop a shorter pulse capability on NIF for very high power and extreme electromagnetic field research and applications. We discuss here the technology challenges and solutions that have made NIF possible, along with enhancements to NIF's design that could lead to near-exawatt power levels.

Assuming high-yield fusion pulses (of 1 to 20 GJ per shot at a rate Of 0.1 Hz), we consider a unique shock and energy absorbing system to contain the energy. One concept answers the need for system standoff from the fusion reaction with a replaceable mechanical cartridge manufactured on-site. System studies suggest integrated blanket designs for absorbing the fusion energy, cartridge manufacture of recycled materials, and cartridge installation/replacement to maintain a reasonable duty cycle. An effective system design for ZP-3 requires an integrated blanket to shield the permanent structures from the high-energy neutron flux and strong shock wave, breed tritium, and simultaneously absorb the released fusion energy. We investigate the feasibility of this integrated blanket concept and explore the principles of a containment chamber-a crucible - and the containment mechanisms. An operational cycle is proposed to physically load hardware in 10-s intervals while maintaining operational conditions. Preliminary pressure and shock calculations demonstrate that high-yield inertial fusion energy pulses can be contained if the appropriate energy-absorbing materials are used.

An updated methodology has been developed, and accident analyses have been performed for two IFE conceptual powerplants and a target fabrication facility. Parallel to the consequence analyses of different accident scenarios, ongoing studies of accident initiating events are being used to support safety assessment and create a basic framework of types of events to consider in future risk characterization of new plant designs. Target designers/ fabrication specialists have been provided with ranking information related to the S&E characteristics of candidate target materials. We have revisited waste management options for IFE, introducing the concept of clearance versus the traditional shallow land burial.

However, little is understood about the underlying mechanism that initiates these aberrations in human cells. To examine whether human chromosomes with the shortest telomeres initiate the preferential chromosomal aberrations before cellular immortalization, we simultaneously applied telomere quantitative fluorescence in situ hybridization and specific whole-chromosome painting on chromosomes 1, 5, 8, 17, 19, and 20 in human ovarian surface epithelial (HOSE 6-3) cells expressing human papilloma viral oncogenes (HPV16 E6E7) The HPV16 E6E7-expressing cells, with extended in vitro life span and telomerase-negative status, were previously identified as having nonrandom chromosomal imbalances and high frequencies of dicentrics. Our analyses showed that among six pairs of targeted chromosomes, chromosomes 8 and 20 showed critically short telomeres with an undetectable telomere signal in more than 50% of cells analyzed. These chromosomes with the critically short telomeres were preferentially involved in various types of chromosomal aberrations including dicentrics, translocations, breaks, insertions, and losses or gains of chromosomal elements. Our findings suggest that nonrandom chromosome aberrations in HOSE cells occurring before cellular immortalization could be caused by the telomere length heterogeneity. (C) 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Phage display has been used as an example, but any system requiring DNA encoding protein fragments, for example, the yeast two-hybrid system, could be used. By cloning DNA fragments upstream of a fusion gene, consisting of the beta-lactamase gene flanked by lox recombination sites, which is, in turn, upstream of gene 3 from fd phage, only those clones containing DNA fragments encoding ORFs confer ampicillin resistance and survive. After selection, the beta-lactamase gene can be removed by Cre recombinase, leaving a standard phage display vector with ORFs fused to gene 3. This vector has been tested on a plasmid containing tissue transglutaminase. All surviving clones analyzed by sequencing were found to contain ORFs, of which 83% were localized to known genes, and at least 80% produced immunologically detectable polypeptides. Use of a specific anti-tTG monoclonal antibody allowed the identification of clones containing the correct epitope. This approach could be applicable to the efficient selection of random ORFs representing the coding potential of whole organisms, and their subsequent downstream use in a number of different systems.

SO GEOCHIMICA ET COSMOCHIMICA ACTA LA English DT Article ID FORCE MICROSCOPY AFM; CARBONATE MINERALS; SURFACE-AREA; REAL-TIME; KINETICS; GROWTH; MORPHOLOGY; INTERFACE; SYSTEMS; CRYSTAL AB A comparison of published calcite dissolution rates measured far from equilibrium at a pH of similar to6 and above shows well over an order of magnitude in variation. Recently published AFM step velocities extend this range further still. In an effort to understand the source of this variation, and to provide additional constraint from a new analytical approach, we have measured dissolution rates by vertical scanning interferometry. In areas of the calcite cleavage surface dominated by etch pits, our measured dissolution rate is 10(-10.95) mol/cm(2)/s (PCO2 10(-3.41) atm, pH 8.82), 5 to similar to100 times slower than published rates derived from bulk powder experiments, although similar to rates derived from AFM step velocities. On cleavage surfaces free of local etch pit development, dissolution is limited by a slow, "global" rate (10(-11.68) mol/cm(2)/s). Although these differences confirm the importance of etch pit (defect) distribution as a controlling mechanism in calcite dissolution, they also suggest that "bulk" calcite dissolution rates observed in powder experiments may derive substantial enhancement from grain boundaries having high step and kink density. We also observed significant rate inhibition by introduction of dissolved manganese. At 2.0 muM Mn, the rate diminished to 10(-12.4) mol/cm(2)/s, and the well formed rhombic etch pits that characterized dissolution in pure solution were absent. These results are in good agreement with the pattern of manganese inhibition in published AFM step velocities, assuming a step density on smooth terraces of similar to9 mum(-1).

Surface chemistry, ion sorption, and the related geochemical reactions within nanopores can be significantly modified by a manometer-scale space confinement. As the pore size is reduced to a few nanometers, the difference between surface acidity constants (DeltapK = pK(2) - pK(1)) decreases, giving rise to a higher surface charge density on a nanopore surface than that on an unconfined mineral-water interface. The change in surface acidity constants results in a shift of ion sorption edges and enhances ion sorption on nanopore surfaces. Also; the water activity in a nanopore is greatly reduced, thus increasing the tendency for inner sphere complexation and mineral precipitation. All these effects combine to preferentially enrich trace elements in nanopores, as observed in both field and laboratory studies. The work reported here sheds new light on such fundamental geochemical issues as the irreversibility of ion sorption and desorption, the bioavailability of subsurface contaminants, and the enrichment of trace metals in ore deposits, as well as the kinetics of mineral dissolution and/or precipitation.

The results of this analysis demonstrate the utility of the scheme where more than 4800 data points collected on multiple measurement profiles have been inverted simultaneously. The resulting image clearly detects the buried waste; when receiver profiles cross pit boundaries, the image maps the lateral extent of the pit. However, the base of the pit is poorly resolved, and depends upon the starting model used to launch the inversion. Hence, critical information on whether contamination is leaching into a resistive gravel bed lining the base of the pit, as well as the deeper geological horizons consisting of brown coal, clay, and tertiary sands, is inconclusive. Nevertheless, by incorporating within the inversion process a priori information of the background media that is host to the waste, sharper images of the base of the pit are obtained, which are in good agreement with borehole data. The 3D analysis applied in this paper overcomes previous limitations in the radio magnetotelluric (RMT) method using 2D data analysis and inversion. With 3D analysis, it is unnecessary to make assumptions regarding geological strike, and near-surface statics can be accommodated in both source polarizations. Our findings also indicate that 2D MT interpretation can overestimate the pit's depth extent. This may lead to the erroneous conclusion that the geological horizons beneath the pit have been contaminated. C1 Sandia Natl Labs, Livermore, CA 94551 USA.

Field tests show a measurable reduction in tube-wave energy as compared to body waves propagating in the surrounding reservoir rock. When using a high-frequency (500-4000 Hz) piezoelectric source, the P-wave-tube-wave amplitude ratio was increased by 33 dB. When using a lower frequency (50-350 Hz) orbital vibrator source, the S-wave-tube-wave amplitude ratio was increased by 21 dB while the P-wave-tube-wave amplitude ratio was increased by 23 dB.

To address this problem, a new class of preconditioners has recently been proposed which is based on a Helmholtz decomposition of the electric field in the low induction number (LIN) regime. This paper further develops that idea and introduces a LIN preconditioner which can be applied to problems characterized by a fully generalized anisotropic medium. Included are sample calculations demonstrating a reduction by two orders of magnitude in the number of "quasi-minimal residual" iterates and a speedup by a factor of approximately four in the solution time for one forward calculation.

To better understand and to quantify this process analytical models are utilized to evaluate the importance of four potential rate-limiting processes: a) gas-phase transport of NaOH to the crown surface; b) diffusion of sodium-containing reactants through a liquid product layer that forms on the brick face; c) gas-phase diffusion of NaOH into refractory pores. and d) chemical-kinetic limitations at the silica grain surface. Predictions are compared with reported corrosion rates and product compositions previously determined by post-mortem analysis of refractory samples. It is concluded that corrosion occurs largely by reaction and removal of material from the exposed brick face, rather than by transport of reactants into the porous bricks. The observed presence of corrosion products deep within the brick pores is shown to be consistent with capillary suction of high-viscosity liquid products from the hot face into the interior. The results further suggest that mechanisms (b) and (c) do not substantially limit the rate of corrosion, but that mechanisms (a) and (d) may both be important. Comparison of measurements with equilibrium predictions of corrosion-product composition indicate that the corrosion reactions are likely to be close to equilibrium at the conditions and lifetimes typical of full-scale furnaces, but that significant departures from equilibrium may occur in short-duration tests. Although computed corrosion rates based on mass transport through a gas boundary layer are somewhat greater than those observed, the results are very sensitive to the gas-phase concentration of NaOH and to the refractory temperature, both of which contain significant uncertainties.

LAI is a key variable for regional and global models of biosphere-atmosphere exchanges of energy, carbon dioxide, water vapour, and other materials. Location The location is global, geographically distributed. Results Biomes with LAI values well represented in the literature included croplands, forests and plantations. Biomes not well represented were deserts, shrublands, tundra and wetlands. Nearly 40% of the records in the database were published in the past 10 years (1991-2000), with a further 20% collected between 1981 and 1990. Mean (+/-SD) LAI, distributed between 15 biome classes, ranged from 1.3+/-0.9 for deserts to 8.7+/-4.3 for tree plantations, with temperate evergreen forests (needleleaf and broadleaf) displaying the highest average LAI (5.1-6.7) among the natural terrestrial vegetation classes. Following a statistical outlier analysis, the global mean (+/-SD) LAI decreased from 5.2 (4.1) to 4.5 (2.5), with a maximum LAI of 18. Biomes with the highest LAI values were plantations > temperate evergreen forests > wetlands. Those with the lowest LAI values were deserts < grasslands < tundra. Mean LAI values for all biomes did not differ statistically by the methodology employed. Direct and indirect measurement approaches produced similar LAI results. Mean LAI values for all biomes combined decreased significantly in the 1990s, a period of substantially more studies and improved methodologies. Main conclusions Applications of the LAI database span a wide range of ecological, biogeochemical, physical, and climate research areas. The data provide input to terrestrial ecosystem and land-surface models, for evaluation of global remote sensing products, for comparisons to field studies, and other applications. Example uses of the database for global plant productivity, fractional energy absorption, and remote sensing studies are highlighted.

At LANL, the FRP is one of three components of the larger Reproductive Health Hazards Program, which also includes Occupational Medicine and Industrial Hygiene. Although pregnant employees usually enter the program through Occupational Medicine, coordination with all three groups is achieved. The most important part of the FRP Program is performance of the workplace evaluation at the pregnant worker's workplace. At the meeting between the health physicist and the pregnant employee, the following topics are reviewed: risks to the embryo/fetus of working around sources of ionizing radiation; LANL's requirements and 10 CFR 835 regulations; her dose history; basic methods of radiation protection; and a detailed discussion of the work assignments/ locations that enables the health physicist to complete an evaluation of the level of radiological hazards. Interface with her supervisor and the Operational Health Physics health physicist in charge of her work areas is essential in acquiring additional information. All of these data, including the radiation dose history and recommendations for possible work modifications or reassignment, are summarized in the workplace evaluation memo, which becomes part of the pregnant employee's medical file. Using input from LANL's legal staff, the author developed a document titled "Guidance to the Supervisors Regarding Fetal Radiation Protection and Reproductive Health Hazards," which instructs supervisors regarding the requirements and regulations, contact names for workplace evaluations, and, very importantly, how to avoid discriminatory behavior against pregnant employees.

The C2H decay profiles in the presence of both the alkane reactant and O-2 are monitored by the CH(A(2)Delta) chemiluminescence tracer method. The results, together with available literature data, yield the following Arrhenius expressions: k(1)(7) = (0.51 +/- 0.06) X 10(-10) exp[(-76 +/- 30)K/T] cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) (T = 96-800 K), k(2)(T) = (0.98 +/- 0.32) X 10(-10) exp[(-71 +/- 60)K/T] cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) (T = 96-361 K), and k(3)(T) = (1.23 +/- 0.26) X 10(-10) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) (T = 96-297 K). At T = 296 K, k(1) is measured as a function of total pressure and has little or no pressure dependence. The results from this work support a direct hydrogen abstraction mechanism for the title reactions. Implications to the atmospheric chemistry of Titan are discussed. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA).

A technique is described for the optimization of multidimensional grayscale soft morphological filters for applications in automatic film archive restoration, specific to the problem of film dirt removal. The optimization is undertaken with respect to a criterion based on mean absolute error and is performed using a genetic algorithm. Experiments have shown that the filter found using this technique has excellent performance in attenuating/removing film dirt from image sequences and has little, if any, effect on the image detail. The results of applying such a filter to a real image sequence were analyzed and compared to those obtained by restoring the same image sequence using a global filtering approach (LUM filter) and a spatio-temporal local filtering approach (ML3Dex filter with noise detection). From a film dirt removal point of view, the optimized soft morphological filter showed improved results compared to the LUM filter and comparable results with respect to the ML3Dex filter with noise detection. Also, the optimized filter accurately restored all fast-moving objects present in the sequence, without the need for motion compensation, whereas the other two methods failed to do this. The proposed method proved to be a simple, fast, and cheap approach for the automatic restoration of old film archives. C1 Univ Strathclyde, Glasgow G1 1XQ, Lanark, Scotland.

The approach to assessment reflects the complexity of the research environment and provides information that allows the research organization to define a few key actions for improvement. The work described here focuses on identifying attributes of DOE laboratory research environments that are most important for fostering excellent research. Thirty-six attributes in four areas were identified by scientists and engineers at these institutions and are presented using the Competing Values model for discussing organizational effectiveness. These attributes served as the basis for the development of a self-assessment survey and improvement process designed specifically for research environments. Assessments involving more than 1000 scientists and engineers in four organizations have shown that this approach provides a good basis for understanding and improvement.

A 4 x 1 traveling-wave array of RHCP high-gain dual-rhombic-loop antennas (DRLAs) and a reflecting plane are used to provide highly efficient RF-to-dc conversion in the presence of lower power densities regardless of the rectenna's broadside orientation. The DRLA array has a circularly polarized antenna gain of 14.6 dB with a 2: 1 voltage standing-wave ratio bandwidth of 17% and a better than 3-dB axial ratio fractional bandwidth of 7% centered about 5.8 GHz. The rectenna achieves 82% RF-to-dc conversion efficiency at 5.8 GHz and uses a low-profile CPS band-reject filter to suppress the re-radiated second harmonic by over 14 dB. The rectenna operating at low power density should have many applications when the transmitting power is low and/or the transmission distance is long.

We derive a general form. for the optimal function and Use it to, motivate the, development of a nonparametric method based on nearest neighbors. We also develop a direct method, of solution based on empirical error minimization for which we prove a finite sample bound, on. estimation error that. is independent of distribution. We show that this empirical error minimization problem is, an extension of the empirical optimization problem for traditional M-class classification with general loss function and prove computational hardness for! this problem. We then derive a simple iterative algorithm called generalized multiclass. ratchet (GMR) and, prove that it produces, an optimal function asymptotically (with probability, 1). To obtain the GMR algorithm we introduce a new data map, that extends Kesler's construction for the multiclass problem (see, e.g., [5p, 266]) and then apply an algorithm called Ratchet to this mapped data, Where Ratchet is a,modification of the Pocket algorithm [6]. Finally; we apply these methods to, a collection of documents and report on the experimental results. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, Comp Res & Applicat Grp, Los Alamos, NM 87544 USA.

The reference features are fabricated in mono-crystalline-silicon with the sidewalls aligned to the (111) lattice planes. A two-step measurement procedure is used to determine the CDs. The primary measurement is via lattice-plane counting of selected samples using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM); the transfer calibration is via electrical CD (ECD) test-structure metrology. Samples of these prototype reference materials were measured and provided, as the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Reference Material RM8110, to International SEMATECH for evaluation by its member companies. In this paper, we will describe the measurement procedure and show how the combined uncertainty of less than 15 nm was derived. Additionally, we demonstrate a technique to automate the analysis of the phase-contrast images in order to both minimize the cost and reduce the uncertainty of the calibration of the standards.

Upon infection of HEp-2 cells with C. pneumoniae, the expression of these genes was followed by reverse transcriptase PCR throughout the developmental cycle of this obligate intracellular pathogen. In addition, expression was analyzed when C. pneumoniae was grown in the presence of human gamma interferon (IFN-gamma). The groEL-1, ompA, and omcB genes were used as markers for the early, middle, and late stages of the developmental cycle, respectively, and the inhibition of expression of the fstK gene was used as a marker for the effect of IFN-gamma on the maturation of C. pneumoniae. In the absence of IFN-gamma, the TTS genes were expressed as follows: early stage (1.5 to 8 h), yscC, yscS, yscL, yscJ and lcrH-2; middle stage (by 12 to 18 h), lcrD, yscN, and yscR; and late stage (by 24 h), lcrE, sycE, lcrH-1, and yscT. Of the genes expressed early, the lcrH-2 gene was detected the earliest, at 1.5 h. Expression of the yscU gene was not detected at any of the time points examined. Under the influence of IFN-gamma, the cluster of TTS genes that were normally not expressed until the middle to late stages of the developmental cycle, namely, lcrD, IcrE, and sycE, as well as lcrH-1, were down-regulated, and expression could not be detected up to 48 h. In contrast, the expression of the other TTS genes appeared to be unchanged in the presence of IFN-gamma. The lcrH-1 and lcrH-2 genes differed from one another in both their temporal expression and response to IFN-gamma. In other TTS systems, these genes code for proteins that function in regulation of effector protein synthesis as well as serve as chaperones for proteins that provide for the translocation of the effector proteins into the host cell. In summary, the expression pattern of the TTS genes of C. pneumoniae examined suggests that they are temporally regulated throughout the developmental cycle. Furthermore, paralleling the inhibition of the maturation of the reticulate body to the elementary body, TTS genes expressed in the later stages of the cycle appear to be down-regulated when the organism is grown in the presence of IFN-gamma.

Validation of these models requires sufficient experimental data. However, investigations into respiratory deposition, particularly in human volunteers, have been historically limited due to methodological limitations. To overcome this, a method for evaluating the nasal wash-in, wash-out phenomena of a highly water-soluble compound in human volunteers was developed and characterized. This methodology was assessed using controlled human inhalation exposures to uniformly labeled [C-13]acetone at approximately 1 ppm concentration for 30 min under different breathing maneuvers (inhale nose/exhale nose; inhale nose/exhale mouth; inhale mouth/exhale nose). A small-diameter air-sampling probe inserted in the nasopharyngeal cavity of the volunteer was connected directly to an ion-trap mass spectrometer capable of sampling every 0.8 s. A second ion-trap mass spectrometer simultaneously sampled from the volunteer's exhaled breath stream via a breath-inlet device interface. Together, the two mass spectrometers provided real-time appraisal of the [C-13]acetone concentrations in the nasopharyngeal region and in the exhaled breath stream before, during, and after the different breathing maneuvers. The breathing cycle (depth and frequency) and heart rate were concurrently monitored throughout the exposure using a heart-rate monitor and a human plethysmograph to differentiate inhalation and exhalation. Graphical overlay of the plethysmography results with the mass spectrometer measurements show clear quantifiable differences in [C-13]acetone levels at the nasal probe as a function of breathing maneuvers. Breath-by-breath analyses of [C-13]acetone concentrations indicate that between 40 and 75% of the compound is absorbed upon inhalation and nearly all of that absorbed is released back into the breath stream during exhalation.

The mechanism for this so-called halogen effect is based on the exclusive transport and subsequent oxidation of a gaseous aluminium-containing species in the inner region of the initially-formed scale to develop an Al2O3-rich protective layer. The present study verified this mechanism on the basis of thermodynamic calculations in the temperature range 700-1100 degreesC. The standard Gibbs energies of the most important reactions for the halogens F, Cl, Br, and I were considered and temperature-dependent halogen partial-pressure limits for the occurrence of the beneficial effect were determined. The lower partial-pressure limit was considered to be dictated by the minimum supply rate of aluminium necessary to sustain Al2O3 scale growth, while the upper limit was dictated by the competition between Al2O3 and TiO2 formation. The results from the chlorine calculations were used to estimate the number of chlorine atoms necessary at the alloy surface for the beneficial effect to operate. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.

In conventional solid oxide electrolyzers, most of the electric power is used in forcing the oxygen to diffuse through the electrolyzer, against a high chemical potential. In the NGASE, natural gas is reacted with the oxygen produced in the electrolysis, reducing the chemical potential across the electrolyzer, thus minimizing electricity consumption. The oxygen produced in the electrolysis is consumed in either a total oxidation or a partial oxidation reaction with natural gas. Experiments performed on single cells show a voltage reduction of as much as 1 V when compared to conventional steam electrolyzers. Analysis indicates that incorporating the electrolyzer with a heat recovery system (heat exchangers and catalytic reactor) results in a high-efficiency hydrogen production system. The system efficiency is up to 70% with respect to primary energy. (C) 2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd on behalf of the International Association for Hydrogen Energy.

The experiment involves shooting a cylindrical rod made of a tungsten heavy alloy (WHA) against an unconfined ceramic/polymer laminated structure that is backed by a 6061-T6 aluminum alloy cylindrical-block, at a velocity ranging between 1000 to 1200 m/s. The residual depth of penetration in the aluminum block is used as a measure of the resistance offered by the laminated ceramic/polymer structure to ballistic penetration. Penetration resistance of the laminated ceramic/polymer structures is compared to that of monolithic ceramic structures of the same total thickness. Experimental results demonstrate that penetration resistance of an unconfined ceramic structure can be improved significantly by laminating ceramic tiles with thin polymer layers in between. This enhanced performance of the laminated structure is attributed to a reduced wave propagation (and damage) velocity in the laminated ceramic/polymer structure and also to the crack arresting feature of the polymer layer.

We validate this model using in situ, room temperature, micro-Raman spectroscopy fiber strain measurements. Multifiber composites were placed under constant load creep tests and the fiber strains were evaluated with time after one fiber break occurred. These composite specimens ranged in fiber volume fraction and strain level. Comparison between prediction and MRS measurements allows us to characterize key in situ material parameters, the critical matrix shear strain for inelastic zones and interfacial frictional slip shear stress. We find that the inelastic zone is predominately either shear yielding or interfacial slipping, and the type depends on the local fiber spacing. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

In these mine wastes, we measured total Hg and methyl-Hg contents, identified various Hg compounds using a pyrolysis technique, and determined rates of Hg methylation and methyl-Hg demethylation using isotopic-tracer methods. Mine wastes contain total Hg contents as high as 14000 mug/g and methyl-Hg concentrations as high as 88 ng/g. Mine wastes were found to contain variable amounts of cinnabar, metacinnabar, Hg salts, Hg-0, and Hg-0 and Hg sorbed onto matrix particulates. Samples with Hg-0 and matrix-sorbed Hg generally contained significant methyl-Hg contents. Similarly, samples containing Hg-0 compounds generally produced significant Hg methylation rates, as much as 26 %/day. Samples containing mostly cinnabar showed little or no Hg methylation. Mine wastes with high methyl-Hg contents generally showed low methyl-Hg demethylation, suggesting that Hg methylation was dominant. Methyl-Hg demethylation was by both oxidative and microbial pathways. The correspondence of mine wastes containing Hg-0 compounds and measured Hg methylation suggests that Hg-0 oxidizes to Hg2+, which is subsequently bioavailable for microbial Hg methylation.

One primary (franklinite) and two secondary (phyllomanganate and phyllosilicate) Zn-containing minerals were identified in the initial soil, and another primary (ZnS) and a new secondary (Fe-(oxyhydr)oxide) Zn species in the covered soil. The quantitative analysis of EXAFS spectra recorded on bulk samples indicated that ZnS and Zn-Fe (oxyhydr)oxides amounted to 71+/-10% and 27+/-10%, respectively, and the other Zn species to less than 10%. The two new Zn species found in the covered soil result from the gravitational migration of ZnS particles initially present in the sediment, and from their farther oxidative dissolution and fixation of leached Zn on Fe (oxyhydr)oxides.

Elemental associations and forms of metals were determined qualitatively and quantitatively by a combination of physical techniques, including muPIXE (Cu, Zn, Pb), muSXRF (Cu, Zn), muEXAFS (Zn) and powder EXAFS (Zn). The nature, number, and relative proportion of Zn species were obtained by principal component analysis and decomposition of Zn K-edge EXAFS spectra. These data collectively indicate that Cu is associated mainly with organic matter, and that Zn and Ph are bound essentially to mineral constituents. Four Zn-containing species were positively identified: Zn-phosphate and phyllosilicate as dominant species, and Zn-Fe oxyhydroxide and willemite (Zn2SiO4) as minor species. Studies are underway to determine the structural forms of Cu and Pb. Depending on the chemical treatment, up to 70% Cu, similar to50% Zn, and similar to85% Pb can be removed in a few days with citrate and EDTA. Citrate is generally at least as efficient as EDTA, and it has the advantage of being easily biodegradable and, hence, less harmful to ecosystems.

The processes allowing metals mobilization in the soil, absorption by the root and/or the fungus, transfer or bioaccumulation are still poorly understood. However, the properties of mycorrhizal fungi could be used for phytoremediation, a soft technique using plants for the clean-up of metal polluted soils. In this work, mycorrhized roots of tomato plants grown in a Zn-contaminated soil were investigated. The distribution of metals and the speciation of Zn were studied at the micron scale using micro synchrotron-based X-ray fluorescence (muSXRF) and micro X-ray absorption spectroscopy (muEXAFS). Zn associated to the root was Zn malate and/or Zn citrate, and Zn associated to the fungus was Zn phyllosilicate. This study illustrates the great potential of X-ray microbeams for the study of biological samples containing various amounts of metals.

Scaling laws SO JOURNAL OF AEROSOL SCIENCE LA English DT Article ID SELECTIVE WITHDRAWAL; DRUG-DELIVERY; MICROSPHERE; SYSTEM AB An experimental investigation on the electrified co-axial jets of two immiscible liquids issuing from a structured Taylor cone (Science 295 (5560) (2002) 1695) has been carried out. The structure of these almost conical electrified menisci consists of an outer meniscus surrounding an inner one. The liquid threads which issue from the vertex of each one of the menisci give rise to a two-concentric layered jet whose eventual breakup results in an aerosol of relatively monodisperse compound droplets with the outer liquid encapsulating the inner one. The effect of the flow rates of both liquids on the current transported by these coaxial jets and on the size of the compound droplets has been investigated. Several couples of liquids have been used to explore the influence on the spraying process of the properties of the liquids: i.e. the electrical conductivity K, dielectric constant beta, interfacial tension of the liquid couple gamma, viscosity mu, etc. We have found that the measurements of the current emitted through the coaxial jet when they are made dimensionless fit satisfactorily the current scaling law of regular electrosprays. Data of the mean diameter of the compound droplets have been obtained using a non-intrusive laser system. As expected the breakup process and therefore the droplet size are strongly dependent on the liquid viscosities and on the ratio of the liquid flow rates. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Therefore, any pathological changes in these tissues generally necessitate detection through magnetic resonance imaging or ultrasound technology. Until recently the development of an X-ray imaging technique that could detect both bone and soft tissues seemed unrealistic. However, the introduction of diffraction enhanced X-ray imaging (DEI) which is capable of rendering images with absorption, refraction and scatter rejection qualities has allowed detection of specific soft tissues based on small differences in tissue densities. Here we show for the first time that DEI allows high contrast imaging of soft tissues, including ligaments, tendons and adipose tissue, of the human foot and ankle.

The interference effects are strong perturbations on the phase shift, which do not allow independent measurement of surface motion. Calculations of the time dependent phase shift that include reflective surface motion, shock wave transit through the transparent thin film, and thin film interference effects are shown to match experimental measurements in 625-nm-thick films of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) shocked to 19 GPa. Interferometric data obtained at two angles of incidence and two polarizations were sufficient to uniquely determine the PMMA shocked refractive index, shock speed, and particle velocity. Interferometric results as a function of shock strength, 2-20 GPa, suggest that submicron PMMA films have essentially the same material response to shock loading (Hugoniot) as macroscopic samples.

Concentration profiles of Ar were measured by secondary ion mass spectroscopy and depth distributions of ion-induced damage were estimated from Rutherford backscattering/channeling spectra. No redistribution of Ar atoms was detected up to 700 degreesC. At 1000 degreesC a deep penetrating diffusion tail and a shift of the Ar peak to the surface were observed. At temperatures higher than 800 degreesC shift of the damage peak to the surface was also observed. We attributed the shift of the Ar peak and the damage peaks to evaporation of thin layer of GaN during high-temperature implantation and estimated its temperature dependence.

Cu/TiN films were synthesized on Si(100) substrate by the pulsed laser deposition (PLD) technique. Three different microstructures of TiN were achieved by growing the films at different substrate temperatures, where higher deposition temperatures (similar to650 degreesC) led to epitaxial growth by the mechanism of domain matching epitaxy and lower temperature depositions resulted in polycrystalline and nanocrystalline TiN films. These structures were characterized using x-ray diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Cu was deposited in situ on the samples with three different microstructures of TiN films on Si(100) by PLD. All three samples were simultaneously annealed at 500 degreesC for 30 min in high vacuum to study the effect of diffusion characteristics of Cu as a function of microstructure of the TiN films. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy, Z-contrast imaging and electron energy-loss spectroscopy were used to understand the diffusion mechanisms and rationalize results in different microstructures.

In this model, the accelerated solid behaves like a viscoplastic after its elastic yield strength is exceeded, with the viscosity inversely proportional to the strain rate. We have applied this model, or a 1993 model of shock-driven viscous instability growth, where applicable, to perturbation growth measurements made in three separate types of experiments: High-explosive (HE)-driven planar Al plates, HE-driven implosions of steel cylinders, and planar Al foils driven indirectly by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory's Nova laser. We have also compared the analytical modeling of these experiments with simulations done with a two-dimensional Lagrangian radiation-hydrodynamics computer code containing an elastic-plastic constitutive model. We find that for the moderate strain rates of the HE experiments, the simulations and analytical modeling of perturbation growth agree with each other and with the data, using an equivalent plastic viscosity consistent with the von Mises plasticity criterion. For the high strain rates of the Nova experiments, on the other hand, the early-time growth data is consistent with viscoplastic growth, with viscosity ten to a hundred times less than the von Mises plastic viscosity for nominal strength. This observed initial material weakening is followed by a transition to a strengthened state to match the late-time growth data, which we show to be consistent with a "relaxation" hypothesis in which plastic flow at high strain rate is confined to discrete shear bands. We also show under what conditions the perturbation growth is independent of initial amplitude. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics. C1 Lawrence Livermore Natl Lab, Livermore, CA 94550 USA.

The model, which incorporates the interference effects associated with the wave nature of phonons, is parametrized with frequency-dependent scattering rates obtained from molecular-dynamics simulations of the interaction of phonon wave packets with a single interface. From simulations of scattering of phonon wave packets from superlattices, we find that when the interference effects are not included there is qualitative disagreement between the molecular-dynamics and particle simulations. Moreover, we show that such interference effects tend to result in a larger amount of energy being transmitted through a superlattice. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.

As expected, the thermal conductivity is increased for this sample, which has a residual resistance ratio (RRR) of about 32, as compared with earlier measurements on bulk samples with much lower RRR values. Over the measured temperature range, this more metallic material exhibits a temperature dependence of the thermal conductivity in the superconducting state that is different from that in previous reports and can be ascribed primarily to defect scattering. Unusual results are presented for the magnetic field dependence of the thermal conductivity around T-c for fields up to 9 T. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.

The distinct peak in piezoelectric coefficient at the morphotropic phase boundary found in bulk PZT ceramics is not observed in thin film PZTs. Measurements of the temperature dependence of relative permittivity and the nonlinear behavior of relative permittivity and piezoelectric coefficient suggest that non-180degrees domain wall motion in these films is negligible, indicating that the extrinsic contribution to the room temperature permittivity is dominated by only 180degrees domain wall motion. The semiempirical phenomenological equation relating the piezoelectric coefficient to measured polarization and permittivity values is demonstrated to give an excellent description of the piezoelectric behavior in these films, assuming bulk electrostrictive and elastic coefficients. The small deviation between calculated and measured piezoelectric coefficients as well as the dependence of piezoelectric and polarization behavior on the external field, i.e., hysteresis loop, are suggested to be primarily due to backswitching of 180degrees domains.

Using SrRuO3 bottom electrodes of a specific low thickness in combination with a relatively high growth rate and a high oxygen pressure, the volume fraction of the BLT (100) orientation, which is competing with the BLT (118) orientation, was increased up to 99%. In this way the growth of fully a-axis-oriented BLT films was achieved, attaining a remanent polarization of 32 muC/cm(2). Initial fatigue experiments indicated hardly any fatigue after 10(9) switching cycles. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics. C1 Max Planck Inst Mikrostrukturphys, D-06120 Halle Saale, Germany.

In order to clarify the roles these factors play in the conduction mechanisms of nitrogen-doped ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD), Raman scattering, near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS), soft x-ray fluorescence (SXF), and secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS) measurements were performed. Transmission electron microscopy analysis of nitrogen doped UNCD has previously indicated that the films are composed of crystalline diamond nano-grains with boundaries of amorphous carbon, and NEXAFS measurements reveal that the global amount of sp(2)-bonded carbon in these films increases slightly with nitrogen doping. The nitrogen content is quantified with high-resolution SIMS analysis, while NEXAFS and SXF indicates that the nitrogen exists primarily in tetrahedrally coordinated sites. These measurements indicate that the overall grain boundary volume of nitrogen-doped ultrananocrystalline diamond is increasing, while the grains themselves remain pure diamond. This supports our previously reported hypothesis that grain boundary conduction is the mechanism for the observed increase in conductivity in ultrananocrystalline diamond with nitrogen doping.

For x in the range of similar to35-55 at. % Pt, these nanoparticles are in the chemically ordered tetragonal L1(0) structure of FePt and appear to be fully ordered. The nanoparticles are ferromagnetic, and the magnetic coercivity is a strong function of the alloy composition, reaching values in excess of 20 kOe for xsimilar to45%. The crystallographic orientation and morphology of the nanoparticles are strongly dependent on the implantation conditions. Under certain implantation conditions, a buried amorphous layer can be formed in the Al2O3 matrix which crystallizes during annealing giving rise to the formation of an interconnected network of large FePt particles with a single orientation. Oriented nanoparticles of Fe3Pt and FePt3 were also synthesized. The Fe3Pt and FePt3 particles have the ordered, cubic L1(2) structure with an order parameter of 0.5-0.8; and these particles also exhibit ferromagnetic behavior. The magnetic and structural properties of the Fe1-xPtx nanoparticles are compared to and contrasted with those of nanoparticles of Fe and Pt in Al2O3 that were also formed by ion-beam synthesis. Evidence for Al incorporation into the nanoparticles is also presented. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics. C1 Oak Ridge Natl Lab, Oak Ridge, TN 37831 USA.

In the present article, we provide a first quantitative analysis of the dislocation structure generated in individual micron-sized Al grains during an in situ electromigration experiment. Laue reflections from individual interconnect grains show pronounced streaking during the early stages of electromigration. We demonstrate that the evolution of the dislocation structure during electromigration is highly inhomogeneous and results in the formation of unpaired randomly distributed dislocations as well as geometrically necessary dislocation boundaries. Approximately half of all unpaired dislocations are grouped within the walls. The misorientation created by each boundary and density of unpaired individual dislocations is determined. The origin of the observed plastic deformation is considered in view of the constraints for dislocation arrangements under the applied electric field during electromigration.

These two instruments were collocated at the central facility of the Department of Energy's Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program's Southern Great Plains region, near Lamont, Oklahoma. The comparison was made using 47 days of observations in May and June of 2000. Weather conditions during this time period were variable with total integrated water vapor ranging from less than 10 to more than 50 mm. To minimize errors in the microwave radiometer observations, observations were compared during conditions when the liquid water measured by the radiometer was less than 0.1 mm. The linear correlation of the observations between the two instruments is 0.99 with a root-mean-square difference of the GPS water vapor to a linear fit of the microwave radiometer of 1.3 mm. The results from these comparisons are used to evaluate the ability of networks of GPS receivers to measure instantaneous line-of-sight integrals of water vapor. A discussion and analysis is provided regarding the additional information of the water vapor field contained in these observations compared to time- and space-averaged zenith and gradient measurements.

Nitrosomonas europaea participates in the biogeochemical N cycle in the process of nitrification. Its genome consists of a single circular chromosome of 2,812,094 bp. The GC skew analysis indicates that the genome is divided into two unequal replichores. Genes are distributed evenly around the genome, with similar to47% transcribed from one strand and similar to53% transcribed from the complementary strand. A total of 2,460 protein-encoding genes emerged from the modeling effort, averaging 1,011 bp in length, with intergenic regions averaging 117 bp. Genes necessary for the catabolism of ammonia, energy and reductant generation, biosynthesis, and CO2 and NH3 assimilation were identified. In contrast, genes for catabolism of organic compounds are limited. Genes encoding transporters for inorganic ions were plentiful, whereas genes encoding transporters for organic molecules were scant. Complex repetitive elements constitute ca. 5% of the genome. Among these are 85 predicted insertion sequence elements in eight different families. The strategy of N. europaea to accumulate Fe from the environment involves several classes of Fe receptors with more than 20 genes devoted to these receptors. However, genes for the synthesis of only one siderophore, citrate, were identified in the genome. This genome has provided new insights into the growth and metabolism of ammonia-oxidizing bacteria.

The signature of an atom is a canonical representation of the atom's environment up to a predefined height h. The signature of a molecule is a vector of occurrence numbers of atomic signatures. Two QSAR and QSPR models based on signature are compared with models obtained using popular molecular 2D descriptors taken from a commercially available software (Molconn-Z). One set contains the inhibition concentration at 50% for 121 HIV-1 protease inhibitors, while the second set contains 12865 octanol/water partitioning coefficients (Log P). For both data sets, the models created by signature performed comparable to those from the commercially available descriptors in both correlating the data and in predicting test set values not used in the parametrization. While probing signature's QSAR and QSPR performances, we demonstrates that for any given molecule of diameter D, there is a molecular signature of height h less than or equal to D+1, from which any 2D descriptor can be computed. As a consequence of this finding any QSAR or QSPR involving 2D descriptors can be replaced with a relationship involving occurrence number of atomic signatures.

Enumerating molecules from their extended valence sequences SO JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL INFORMATION AND COMPUTER SCIENCES LA English DT Article ID ACTIVITY RELATIONSHIP MODELS; INFORMATION-TRANSFER; TOPOLOGICAL INDEXES; GENETIC ALGORITHM; GRAPHS; DESIGN; DEGENERACY; FAMILIES; CONSTRUCTION; DATABASE AB We present a new algorithm that enumerates molecular structures matching a predefined extended valence sequence or signature. The algorithm can construct molecular structures composed of about 50 non-hydrogen atoms in CPU seconds time scale. The algorithm is run to produce all molecular structures matching the binding affinities (IC50) of some HIV-1 protease inhibitors. The algorithm is also used to compute the degeneracy, or the number of molecular structures, corresponding to a given signature. Signature degeneracy is systematically studied for varying signature heights on four molecular series, alkanes, alcohols, fullerene-type structures, and peptides. Signature degeneracy is compared with similar results obtained with popular topological indices (TIs). As a general rule, we find that signature degeneracy decreases as the signature height increases. We also find that alkanes, alcohols, and fullerene-type structures comprising n non-hydrogen atoms are uniquely characterized by signatures of height n/4, while peptides up to 4000 amino acids can be singled out with signatures of heights as small as 2 and 3.

The study encompasses the determination of the ion-pair association constant via potential of mean force calculations. The main goal is to find answers to some relevant questions regarding the thermodynamic and corresponding microscopic behavior of the ion-pair formation at steamlike densities, where experimental data are extremely difficult to obtain accurately. A direct comparison is made between simulation, theoretical developments, and experiment to aid the interpretation of experimental data and their macroscopic modeling.

The model considers the influence of short-range as well as long-range attractive forces both inside and outside the actual contact area. In contrast to earlier models, this theory describes the nature of these deformations in the intermediate regime between the so-called JKR and DMT limits by simple analytic expressions. Equations for the calculation of the contact radius, the deformation, and the pressure distribution are given. In all equations, the critical force that might vary between the limiting values found in the DMT and the JKR model acts as transition parameter. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

Micro-X-ray fluorescence (MXRF) screens materials for elemental composition with mesoscale analysis. This method is nondestructive and requires minimal sample preparation and no special tags for analysis, and the screening time is dependent on the desired sensitivity. The speed, sensitivity, and simplicity of MXRF as a high-throughput screening technique were applied to screen bead-based libraries of oligopeptides for phosphate hydrolysis catalysts and molecular recognition of selective receptors for the degradation products and analogues of chemical warfare agents. This paper demonstrates the analytical or HTS capability of MXRF for combinatorial screening. It is meant only to show the capabilities of MXRF and is not meant as an exhaustive study of the catalyst and molecular recognition systems presented.

Specifically, we establish how these errors depend on Mach number, Knudsen number, number of particles, etc. Expressions for the common hydrodynamic variables of interest such as flow velocity, temperature, density, pressure, shear stress, and heat flux are derived using equilibrium statistical mechanics. Both volume-averaged and surface-averaged quantities are considered. Comparisons between theory and computations using direct simulation Monte Carlo for dilute gases, and molecular dynamics for dense fluids, show that the use of equilibrium theory provides accurate results.

The effect which enables this is the conversion of photons into axions, which are sufficiently weakly coupled to travel large distances unimpeded. These axions then convert back into high energy photons close to the Earth. We show that photon - axion mixing facilitates the survival of super-GZK photons most efficiently with a photon - axion coupling scale M greater than or similar to 10(11) GeV, which is in the same range as the scale for the photon - axion mixing explanation for the dimming of supernovae without cosmic acceleration. We discuss possible observational consequences of this effect. C1 Cornell Univ, Newman Lab Elementary Particle Phys, Ithaca, NY 14853 USA. Univ Calif Davis, Dept Phys, Davis, CA 95616 USA.

Elemental maps of C and Si were used to calculate C-to-Si concentration profiles across the interfaces. Enhanced C/Si concentrations (up to similar to 35%) were observed at distinct regions in samples oxidized at 1100degreesC for 4 h in a wet ambient. The data from a number of randomly selected regions indicate that re-oxidation at 950degreesC for 3 h significantly reduced, but did not eliminate, the amount of excess interfacial carbon.

Deionized water spiked with TCE and PCE was pumped for approximately 1 h at 0.19 to 0.21 MPa (28 to 30 lb m(-2)) through a mini-sprinkler supported on top of a 1.8-m-tall riser. Water was collected in collection vessels at 0.61 and 1.22 in above the ground on support columns that were spaced at 0.61-m intervals from the riser base, and samples were composited per height and distance from the riser. Overall, air-stripping reduced dissolved concentrations of TCE and PCE by 99.1 to 100 and 96.9 to 100%, respectively, from mean influent dissolved concentrations of 466 to 1675 mug L-1 TCE and 206 to 940 mug L-1 PCE. In terms of mass removed, the mini-sprinklers removed TCE and PCE at a rate of approximately 1400 to 1700 and 700 to 900 mug L-1, respectively, over a 1-h test period. Mini-sprinklers offer the advantages of (i) easy setup in series that can be used on practically any terrain; (ii) operation over a long period of time that does not threaten aquifer depletion; (iii) use in small or confined aquifers in which the capacity is too low to support large irrigation or purging systems'. and (iv) use in forests in which the small, low-impact droplets of the mini-sprinklers do not damage hark and in which trees can help manage (via evapotranspiration) excess waste water.

A greenhouse study was conducted to evaluate the effects of surface applications of amendments on lead bioavailability in the tailings. Treatments included sediment only, and sediment with three different surface amendments: (i) biosolids compost plus wood ash, (ii) compost + wood ash + a low SO(4)(2-) addition as K(2)SO(4), and (iii) compost + wood ash + a high SO(4)(2-) addition. Measured variables included growth and tissue Pb, Zn, and Cd concentration of arrowhead (Sagittaria latifolia Willd.) and cattail (Typha latifolia L.) and soil pH, redox potential (Eh), pore water Pb, Pb speciation by X-ray absorption spectroscopy, and in vitro Pb bioavailability. The compost + ash amendment alleviated phytotoxicity for both plant species. Bioavailability of Pb as measured by a rapid in vitro extract decreased by 24 to 34% (over control) in the tailings directly below the amendment layer in the compost + SO(4) treatments. The ratio of acid volatile sulfide (AVS) to simultaneously extracted metals (SEM) also indicated a reduction in Pb bioavailability (1:40 control, 1:20 compost, 1:8 compost + low SO(4), and 1:3 compost + high SO(4)). Extended X-ray adsorption fine structure (EXAFS) and X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES) spectroscopy data indicated that lead sulfide was greater after 99 d in the treatments that included additions of sulfate. These results indicated that, under reducing conditions, surface amendments of compost + wood ash (with or without sulfate) decreased the bioavailability of Pb in metal-contaminated mine tailings.

In sequential extractions of four sediments that ranged from 12.7 to 82.2 g kg(-1) in organic carbon, U was found almost exclusively in moderately labile fractions (93% in acid-soluble + organically bound). Nickel was distributed across all operationally defined fractions, including substantial amounts in the very labile fractions (4-15% in water-soluble + exchangeable), noncrystalline and crystalline iron oxides (38-49%), and in the nonlabile residual fraction (25-34%). Aqueous U concentrations in 1:1 sediment-water extracts were highly correlated to dissolved organic carbon (DOC) (R-2 = 0.96; p < 0.0001) and ranged from 29 to 410 mug L-1. Aqueous concentrations of Ni exceeded U by two to three orders of magnitude (124-2227 mug L-1) but were not correlated with DOC (R-2 = 0.04; p = 0.53). Partitioning and solubility trends suggest that Ni availability is controlled primarily by iron-oxide phases, whereas U availability is dominated by naturally occurring organic carbon. Discrete mineral phases were also identified as nonlabile reservoirs of anthropogenic metals. In spite of comparably high sediment concentrations, Ni appears to be significantly more available than U in riparian sediments and therefore warrants greater consideration in terms of environmental consequences (i.e., transport, biological uptake, and toxicity).

Enzymological results demonstrate that mass-specific GSase activities rank, in the order of brain > liver > stomach approximate to kidney > intestine > gill > heart/spleen > muscle. When tissue mass is used to calculate a glutamine synthetic potential, the liver has the greatest, followed by muscle > stomach and intestine, with minor. contributions from the remaining tissues. Additionally, during confinement stress, GSase activity increases significantly only in liver (fivefold) and muscle (twofold), tissues that previously showed significant expression of the other enzymes of urea synthesis. Western analyses of samples on SDS gels demonstrated that GSase-specific protein content reflected enzyme activity, and all tissues except muscle had a single, similarly sized GSase subunit of 49.4 kDa; muscle showed staining of two bands of 36.8 and 98.9 kDa, which may possibly result from another gene product or post-translational modification. RT-PCR and RACE-PCR revealed the presence of a second GSase cDNA from gill tissue that shares only 73% nucleotide and amino acid sequence similarity with the GSase cDNA previously cloned from liver, and that lacks a mitochondrial leader-targeting sequence. RT-PCR and restriction digestion experiments demonstrated that mRNA from the original 'liver' GSase is expressed in all tissues examined (liver, gill, stomach, intestine, kidney, brain and muscle), whereas the new 'gill' form shows expression primarily, in the gill. Gill GSase activity shows apparently exclusive expression in the soluble compartment, while other tissues expressing the 'liver' form show both cytoplasmic and mitochondrial activities. Phylogenetic analysis of a number of GSases demonstrates that the toadfish gill GSase has a greater affinity for a clade that includes the Xenopus GSase genes and one of two Fugu GSase genes, than it has for a clade containing the toadfish liver GSase and other described teleost GSase genes. The results are discussed in the context of a prior hypothesis on an ammonia-trapping mechanism in the gill of the toadfish.

Since reactant utilization is known to impact the mechanical nature of a fuel cell, it is suggested that the varying reactant conditions surrounding the cell govern, at least in part, the lifetime of the cells, This paper investigates these conditions through the use of a dynamic model for the bulk conditions within the stack, as well as a one-dimensional model for the detailed mass transport occurring within the electrode of a cell. These two independent modeling approaches are used to verify their respective numerical procedures. In this work the inverter load is imposed as a boundary condition to the models. Results show the transient behavior of the reactant concentrations within the stack, and of the mass diffusion within the electrode under inverter loads, with frequencies between 30 Hz and 1250 Hz.

Recent measurements of the matter density of the universe and of cosmic structures at the dwarf galaxy scale rule out the simplest gravitino models with thermal freeze-out. We construct a model where the decay of the messenger particles that transmit the supersymmetry breaking to the observable sector generates the required entropy to dilute the gravitino relic density by the required factor of a few to come in line with observations. The model is natural, and requires only that the coupling of the messenger sector to the standard model be set so that the decay happens at the appropriate time.

The fate and transport of contaminants in these variably saturated undisturbed media is largely a function of the influence of PNE processes. Large cores of laminated silts and sands were collected from the US Department of Energy Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) in semi-arid south central Washington. Additional cores of weathered, fractured interbedded limestone and shale saprolite were collected from the Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) in humid eastern Tennessee. PNNL cores were collected parallel (FBP) and perpendicular (FXB) to bedding, and the ORNL core was 30degrees to bedding. Saturated and unsaturated transport experiments were performed using multiple nonreactive tracers that had different diffusion coefficients (Br-, PFBA, and PIPES), in order to identify the influence of PNE on the fate and transport of solutes. In the ORNL structured saprolite, solute transport was governed by coupled preferential flow and matrix diffusion, as evidenced by tracer separation and highly asymmetric breakthrough curves (BTC). BTCs became more symmetric as preferential flowpaths became inactive during drainage. Tracer separation persisted during unsaturated flow suggesting the continued importance of nonequilibrium mass transfer between flowpaths and the immobile water that was held in the. soil matrix. No evidence of PNE was observed under near-saturated conditions in the semi-arid region (PNNL) laminated silts and sands. Unsaturated flow in cores with discontinuous layering resulted in preferential flow and the development of perched, immobile water as evidenced by early breakthrough and separation of tracers. Conversely, transport parallel to laterally continuous beds did not result in preferential flow, the development of perched water, or tracer separation regardless of water content. These observations suggested that desaturation had two effects: (1) grain size variations between individual beds resulted in different antecedent water contents, and (2) the exchange of water and solutes between individual sedimentary beds was subsequently inhibited. Under unsaturated conditions, these effects may promote either stable lateral flow, or unstable vertical finger flow coupled with the development of perched, immobile water.

This renders the unsaturated flow equations stochastic. Determining statistics of pressure head statistics, psi, is nontrivial, since the Richards equation is highly nonlinear. The prevalent approach is to linearize relative hydraulic conductivity, K-r(psi), around the ensemble mean pressure head, (psi), which often leads to significant errors. Recently, an approach has been proposed to avoid such a linearization for the Gardner model, K-r = exp(alphapsi), with the soil parameter a being a random variable. We generalize this approach by allowing a to be a random field. This is achieved by means of a partial mean-field approximation with respect to alpha(x). Using two-dimensional infiltration into a heterogeneous soil with uncertain hydraulic parameters as an example, we. demonstrate that our predictions of the mean pressure-head and its variance remain accurate for moderately variable as. The robustness of our solutions increases with the correlation length of a. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. C1 Los Alamos Natl Lab, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA.

The nonstationarity of flow stems from various sources, such as multi-scale, nonstationary medium features and complex hydraulic boundary conditions. These flow nonstationarities are beyond the applicable range of the "classical' stochastic theory for stationary flow fields, but widely exist in natural media. In this study, the stochastic frames for flow and transport are developed through an analytical analysis while the solutions are obtained with a numerical method. This approach combines the stochastic concept with the flexibility of the numerical method in. handling medium nonstationarity and boundary/initial conditions. It provides a practical way for applying stochastic theory to solute transport in complex groundwater environments. This approach is demonstrated through some synthetic cases of solute transport in multi-scale media as well as some hypothetical scenarios of solute transport in the groundwater below the Yucca Mountain project areas It is shown that the spatial variations of mean log-conductivity and correlation function significantly affect the mean and variance of solute flux. Even for a stationary medium, complex hydraulic boundary conditions may result in a nonstationary flow field. How nonstationarity and/or nonuniform distribution of initial plume (geometry and/or density) may lead to nonGaussian behaviors (with multiple peaks) for mean and variance of the solute flux. The calculated standard deviation of solute flux is generally larger than its mean value, which implies that real solute fluxes may significantly deviate from the mean predictions.

The band parameters are chosen in such a way that the obtained local densities at and far away from the vortex center are in qualitative agreement with the STM measurements on YBCO. Both the hole-rich normal and electron-rich AF vortices are found, depending on the strength of induced AF order. The vortex charge is strongly influenced by the competing effects from the AF order and the DSC order at the vortex core. By tuning the on-site Coulomb repulsion U or the doping parameter delta, a transition between the positive and negative vortex charges may occur. Recent NMR and Hall effect experiments on vortex charges can be understood in terms of the present results. New imaging experiments should be able to probe the vortex charge directly.

Plane oxygen bond stretching phonon branches disperse steeply downwards from the zone center in both the a and the b direction indicating a strong electron-phonon coupling. Half way to the zone boundary, the phonon peaks become ill-defined but we see no need to invoke unit cell doubling or charge stripe formation: lattice dynamical shell model calculations predict such behavior as a result of branch anticrossings.

Decay times and luminosities were measured using powder samples and crystals and a pulsed X-ray facility capable of a time resolution of similar to 60 ps. In both materials, near-band-edge exciton lines and broad emission bands shifted to lower energies are observed. The X-ray excited scintillations exhibit fast (ns), nonexponential decays. The rise and decay rates of the broad emission bands decrease with increasing wavelength characteristic of donor-acceptor pair emission. With increasing temperature, the luminosities decrease much faster than the fwhm decay lifetimes. Therefore the reduction in luminosity is not due primarily to thermal quenching of the excited states but to thermally activated trapping of charge carriers on nonradiative recombination centers.

This may be connected with the transport and sequential capture of charge carriers at or near the Ce3+ ion.

During machining of heterogeneous materials such as cast iron, the material around the machining-affected zone undergoes reverse loading, which manifests itself in permanent material softening. In addition, cracks are formed below and ahead of the tool. To accurately simulate machining of heterogeneous materials the microstmcture-level model has to reproduce the effect of material softening on reverse loading (MSRL effect) and material damage. This paper describes procedures used to calculate the material behavior parameters for the aforementioned phenomena. To calculate the parameters associated with the MSRL effect, uniaxial reverse loading experiments and simulations were conducted using individual constituents of ductile iron. The material model was validated with reverse loading experiments of ductile iron specimens. To determine the parameters associated with fracture of each constituent, experiments and simulation of notched specimens are performed. During the validation stage, response of simulated ductile iron was in good agreement with the experimental data. C1 Caterpillar Inc, Ctr Tech, R&D, Peoria, IL 61525 USA.

X-ray diffraction was used to analyze the percentage of monoclinic phase in the PSZ base material, ground surface, and debris. As expected, due to the stress- and temperature-induced phase transformation during grinding, the percentage of monoclinic phase on the ground surface was increased relative to the base material. However X-ray diffraction showed no monoclinic phase in the PSZ debris. This suggests that, during grinding, the low thermal conductivity of zirconia and SiC, compared to that of diamond, facilitates heat retention in the chip and softens the work-material. This makes the efficient grinding of PSZ possible. Grinding temperature measurement results supported this hypothesis. C1 Univ Michigan, Dept Mech Engn, Ann Arbor, MI 48109 USA.

The formulation of the inverse method developed by Guo et al. [1] is adopted and extended to the tube hydroforming problems in which the initial geometry is a round tube submitted to hydraulic pressure and axial feed at the tube ends (end-feed). A simple criterion based on a forming limit diagram is used to predict the necking regions in the deformed workpiece. Although the developed computational tool is a stand-alone code, it has been linked to the Marc finite element code for meshing and visualization of results. The application of the inverse approach to tube hydroforming is illustrated through the analyses of the aluminum alloy AA6061-T4 seamless tubes under free hydroforming conditions. The results obtained are in good agreement with those issued from a direct incremental approach. However the computational time in the inverse procedure is much less than that in the incremental method. C1 Pacific NW Natl Lab, Computat Mech & Mat Behav Grp, Richland, WA 99352 USA.

Samples of pulse laser deposited YBCO films varying in thickness from 0.19 to 3.0 mum on rolling-assisted biaxially textured substrates with an architecture of CeO2/YSZ/CeO2/Ni were prepared by tripod polishing for cross-sectional electron microscopy. More randomly oriented grains in the upper portion of the YBCO film surface were observed with increasing film thickness, resulting in less cube texture. In addition, increases in mismatch across the boundaries of the c-axis grains with increasing time during deposition, along with the development of BaCeO3 and Y2BaCuO5 phases at the YBCO/CeO2 interface, contributed to the degradation of film properties. Surface outgrowths of the YBCO film were examined as well as the defect structures and second-phase formations within the films. C1 Oak Ridge Natl Lab, Oak Ridge, TN 37831 USA.

Differential scanning calorimetry, ex situ x-ray, and Raman spectroscopy investigations showed that amorphous silicon partially transformed into nanocrystalline silicon at 873 K under 5 GPa. This was followed by the formation of nanocrystalline silicon carbide from the reaction between the silicon and diamond after silicon melting. Refinement of the x-ray diffraction patterns of composites with the Rietveld method revealed that considerable microstrain (0.3-0.5%) remained within the nanocrystalline silicon carbide grains. Small strain (0.1-0.2%) was observed in the compacted diamonds, but after the reaction they became almost strain free (<0.1%). Enhanced fracture toughness was obtained for hybrid composites compared to liquid-infiltrated composites. C1 Texas Christian Univ, Dept Phys & Astron, Ft Worth, TX 76129 USA.

Radial cracks initiate at the coating/substrate interface beneath the contact where maximum flexural tension occurs, and an analytical expression for the onset of radial cracking in monolayer coatings was formulated on the basis of the classical solution for flexing plates on elastic foundation. In the present study, the analytical expression was derived for the case of ceramic bilayer coatings on compliant substrates, which have significant applications in the structure of dental crowns. It was found that the analytical solution for bilayer-coating/substrate systems can be obtained from that of monolayer-coating/substrate systems by replacing the neutral surface position and the flexural rigidity of monolayer coating with those of bilayer coating. The predicted critical loads for initiating radial cracking were found to be in good agreement with existing measurements and finite element results for glass/alumina, glass/glass-ceramic, and glass/Y2O3-stabilized ZrO2 polycrystal bilayers on polycarbonate substrates. Limitations of the present analysis are discussed. C1 Oak Ridge Natl Lab, Div Met & Ceram, Oak Ridge, TN 37831 USA.

Some of the difficulties in developing a universal method include the physical differences between the major pathogen groups (viruses, bacteria, protozoa), efficiently concentrating large volume water samples to detect low target concentrations of certain pathogen groups, removing co-concentrated inhibitors from the sample, and standardizing 4 culture-independent endpoint detection method. Integrating the disparate technologies into a single, universal, simple method and detection system would represent a significant advance in public health and microbiological water quality analysis. Recent advances in sample collection, on-line sample processing and purification, and DNA microarray technologies may form the basis of a universal method to detect known and emerging waterborne pathogens. This review discusses some of the challenges in developing a universal pathogen detection method, current technology that may be employed to overcome these challenges, and the remaining needs for developing an integrated pathogen detection and monitoring system for source or finished water.

This lack of significant taper (draft angle) greatly increases the difficulty associated with ejecting parts during demolding. In this paper, a procedure is described to fabricate a mold insert with tapered features having a height of approximately I mm and lateral dimensions of approximately 300 mum. A set of six oblique exposures of a thick layer of SU-8 (an EPON epoxy based negative tone resist) is used to create hexagonal posts with a 3degrees draft angle. An electroforming process is used to fabricate a nickel mold insert with the tapered features. This mold insert is used to injection mold tapered polymer high aspect ratio microstructures. The dimensions of the SU-8 tapered structures (as well as the mold insert) are within 4 mum of desired/predicted values. C1 Louisiana State Univ, Dept Engn Mech, Baton Rouge, LA 70803 USA.

Herein an in situ analysis by real-time mass spectroscopy provides time-resolved information about heterogeneous catalytic reactions, such as reaction completion time and product formation. This paper presents a novel application of real-time mass spectrometry to monitor the progress of an alkylation reaction of benzene with propylene to produce cumene, using an H+ beta-zeolite (Si/Al: 12/1) catalyst at 150 degreesC with a 7:1 benzene to propylene molar ratio. Quantitative analysis of products was performed by gas chromatography (GC). Mass spectroscopy (MS) was utilized to continuously monitor reactants being consumed and products being formed during the alkylation process in real-time, to identify side products formed during the reaction, and to determine reaction completion. The real-time monitoring indicated that propylene was quickly absorbed/consumed, while cumene had a delayed release back into the gas phase. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The HCBr radical was formed by 193 nm excimer laser photolysis of bromoform. We found no signals from HCBr when the photolysis laser wavelength was changed to 248 nm, although strong CH product emission was observed by eye at both wavelengths. Most of the spectra were recorded in absorption at ambient temperature in a long-path absorption cell using a single frequency Ti:sapphire laser as the light source, but some congested sections were recorded under jet-cooled conditions. Analysis yielded accurate values for the vibrational fundamentals and rotational constants for the vibrationally excited ground state levels determined. A combination of experimental measurements and ab initio vibration-rotation constants was used to estimate equilibrium parameters and a ground state structure for HCBr.

The four observed spectral bands are assigned to the d-d transitions from the (1)A(1g) ground state to the T-3(1g) (similar to23 500 cm(-1)), T-3(2g) (similar to28 000 cm(-1)), T-1(1g) (similar to33 300 cm(-1)) and T-1(2g) (similar to40 000 cm(-1)) excited states assuming pt(4+) resides in a distorted octahedral site. The absorption band intensities are found to exist in two groups, with the low compositionally averaged modifier field strength (<3.5 Angstrom(-2)) having the greater absorption intensities. The ligand splitting energy and Racah parameter B vary between similar to38 000 and 40 000 cm(-1) and between similar to435 and 650 cm(-1), respectively, depending on the choice of modifier. The pt(4+) absorption coefficient, alpha, at 25 000 cm(-1) is correlated with the platinum concentration (ppm(w)) in a potassium magnesium-alumino-metaphosphate glass by the equation: [Pt] ppm(w) = 526alpha (cm(-1)). A comparison of relative Pt uptake during melting shows that the rare-earth doped potassium magnesium alumino-phosphate melt has the greatest uptake and is approximately 25 times greater than the concentration reported for the commercial silicate laser glass, ED-2. The effect of pt(4+) (0-860 ppm(w)) on fluorescence quenching rate from the Nd3+ F-4(3/2) state is small (k(A) approximate to 0.3 Hz/ppm(w)) in agreement with predictions based on the Forster-Dexter theory for dipolar energy transfer.

It was not possible to prepare homogeneous, stable glasses of compositions 0.85 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.95 due to a strong exothermic enthalpy of mixing between the B2S3 and B2O3 phases. Raman and B-11 NMR spectroscopies, used to characterize the structure of the glasses, show that the boron oxide structures of B2O3 especially the six-membered (thioboroxol) rings, quickly diminish with increasing sulfide content, whereas the corresponding sulfide structures in B2S3 remain relatively intense as the oxide content is increased. Differential scanning calorimetry and density measurements, used to characterize the physical properties of the glasses, show that the physical properties of these boron oxysulfide glasses heavily favor the B2S3 properties regardless of the amount of B2O3 added to the system. It is hypothesized that the stability of the thioboroxol ring group relative to that of the BS3/2 trigonal group is a possible source of this behavior. The large heat of mixing for B2O3 rich glasses is associated with the formation of new mixed boron oxysulfide structures of composition BSiO3-i where 0 < i < 3. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

Together, these techniques provided a comprehensive set of tools for observing and characterizing the structure and evolution of radiation-induced defects in SiC as a function of irradiation temperature and dose. In this study, two types of dense, crystalline, monolithic SiC were subjected to irradiation doses up to I dpa-SiC at a temperature of I 100 degreesC, as well as post-irradiation annealing up to 1500 degreesC. The microscopic defect structures observed by TEM were correlated to changes in the macroscopic dimensions, thermal diffusivity and thermal conductivity. The results demonstrated the value of using ultrapure beta-SiC as an effective reference material to characterize the nature of expected radiation damage in other, more complex, SiC-based materials such as SiC/SiC composites.

The test was irradiated in EBR-II at a temperature of 390 degreesC to a maximum dose of 93.3 dpa. The test samples were unpressurized and pressurized tubes. The stress values covered the range of 69-188 MPa. Previous investigations of the data have focused on the high dose behavior. This evaluation performed a detailed evaluation of the low dose data. The results show that the swelling independent steady state irradiation creep coefficient is equal to 0.380 x 10(-6)/MPa-dpa. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The lithium hydroxide grains thermally decomposed into Li2O, releasing H2O, following a three dimensional phase boundary moving from the surface inward. The energy barriers measured for the decomposition of surface and near-surface lithium hydroxide are noticeably smaller than those of bulk counterpart. The conversion of Li2O grains back to lithium hydroxide during moisture exposure was also found to proceed from the surface inward such that surface states are filled before bulk states. In a different set of experiments, nanometer-scale composite grains composed of LiD inner cores and LiOH outer layers were observed to form on top of pressed polycrystalline LiD upon moisture exposure. A diffusion coefficient on the order of 10(-23) m(2)/s was measured for the diffusion controlled reaction of LiOH with LiD in the nanopowder at room temperature in a dry environment. The measured kinetics were used to model the evolution of the LiD/LiOH composite system in a dry environment. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Methods: A microdosimetric approach based on histological images is used to analyze the therapeutic effectiveness of alpha-particle-emitting At-211 and Bi-213 conjugated to 201 B monoclonal antibody (mAb), which is reactive with murine lung blood vessels for the treatment of EMT-6 lung tumor colonies in nude mice. Autoradiography images were used to define the tissue morphology and activity distribution within lung tissues. Two animal groups were studied: Group A consisted of animals bearing small tumors (<130 mum) and group B consisted of larger tumors (<600 mum). Probability density functions (pdf) described the variability in average absorbed dose and survival probability among normal and tumor target cells and, in turn, were used to assess the survival fraction of tumor and normal tissue. Results: The average absorbed dose to tumor cells per unit cumulated activity concentration for animals in group A was 1.10 X 10(-3) and 1.37 X 10(-3) Gy g MBq(-1) s(-1) for At-211 and Bi-213, respectively, and for animals in group B was 3.8 X 10(-4) and 5.6 X 10(-4) Gy g MBq(-1) s(-1) for At-211 and Bi-213, respectively. The fraction of tumor cells that received a zero absorbed dose for animals in group A was 0.04% for Bi-213 and 0.2% for At-211 and for animals in group B was 25% for Bi-213 and 31% for At-211. Both Bi-213- and At-211-labeled 201B mAb were effective therapies for animals with small tumors, where predicted therapeutic effectiveness was consistent with experimental findings; however, they were ineffective for animals with larger tumors. Conclusion: Microdosimetric methods based on knowledge of tissue morphology and activity distribution on a small-scale level can be a useful tool for evaluating a priori the therapeutic efficacy and limitations of targeted alpha-particle endoradiotherapeutic strategies.

However, little information on the feasibility of using these machines for quantitative PET in small animals is available. Here we investigate the reproducibility of microPET imaging of C-11-raclopride in the rat brain and the effects of tracer-specific activity and photon scatter correction on measures of D2 receptor (D2R) availability. Methods: Sprague-Dawley rats (422 +/- 29 g; n = 7) were anesthetized with ketamine/xylazine and catheterized for tail vein injection of C-11-raclopride. Each animal was positioned prone in the microPET, centering the head in the field of view. MicroPET data was collected for 60 min-starting at C-11-raclopride injection-and binned into 24 time frames (6 x 10 s, 3 x 20 s, 8 x 60 s, 4 x 200 s, 3 x 600 s). In 3 studies, C-11-raclopride was administered a second time in the same animal, with 2-4 h between injections. In a fourth animal, raclopricle (1 mg/kg) was coinjected with C-11-raclopride for the second injection. Three rats received a single dose of C-11-raclopride. The range of doses for all studies was 6.11-18.54 MBq (165-501 muCi). The specific activity at injection was 4.07-48.1 GBq/mumol (0.11-1.3 Ci/mumol). Region-of-interest analysis was performed and the distribution volume ratio (DVR) was computed for striatum/cerebellum using sinograms uncorrected and corrected for scatter using a tail-fit method. Results: Test-retest results showed that the C-11-raclopride microPET DVR was reproducible (change in DVR = -8.3% +/- 4.4%). The average DVR from 6 rats injected with high specific activity (<4 nmol/kg) was 2.43 +/- 0.19 (coefficient of variation = 8%). The DVR for the blocking study was 1.23. The DVR depended on the mass of tracer "C-raclopride injected for doses >1.5 nmol/kg. Scatter fractions within the rat head were similar to25%-45% resulting in an average increase of DVR of 3.5% (range, 0%-10%) after correction. Conclusion: This study shows that the C-11-raclopride microPET-derived DVR is reproducible and suitable for studying D2R availability in the rat brain. MicroPET sensitivity was sufficient to determine reproducible DVRs from C-11-raclopride injections of 9.25 MBq (similar to250 muCi). However, the effect of tracer mass on the DVR should be considered for studies using more than similar to1-2 nmol/kg raclopride, and scatter correction has a measurable impact on the results.

This report helped to develop confidence in the selected HLW disposal system and to establish the implementation body in 2000 for the disposal of HLW. JNC developed an in-house thermodynamic database for radioactive elements for performance analysis of the engineered barrier system (EBS) and the geosphere for H12 report. This paper briefly presents the status of the JNC's thermodynamic database and its applicability to perform realistic analyses of the solubilities of radioactive elements, evolution of solubility-limiting solid phases, predictions of the redox state of Pu in the neutral pH range under reducing conditions, and to estimate solubilities of radioactive elements in cementitious conditions.

The presentations in the first part of the workshop described approaches and advances important to the analysis of trace minerals. These presentations included: 1) two approaches to mass spectrometry, inductively coupled plasma and accelerator mass spectrometry; 2) use of nuclear magnetic resonance in studies of mineral function; and 3) the use and limitations of fluorescent probes in studies of metal uptake and regulation. In, the second part of the workshop, the International Atomic Energy's contributions to nutritional "metrology" were described. Advances in instrumentation over the past decade have led to extraordinary improvements in the precision and sensitivity of mineral analyses. The ability to address isotopic speciation at such, low levels sets the stage for numerous novel approaches in the assessment of trace mineral function.

As part of an investigation of these issues, we have developed MPICH-G2, a Grid-enabled implementation of the Message Passing Interface (MPI) that allows a user to run MPI programs across multiple computers, at the same or different sites, using the same commands that would be used on a parallel computer. This library extends the Argonne MPICH implementation of MPI to use services provided by the Globus Toolkit for authentication, authorization, resource allocation, executable staging, and I/O, as well as for process creation, monitoring, and control. Various performance-critical operations, including startup and collective operations, are configured to exploit network topology information. The library also exploits MPI constructs for performance management; for example, the MPI communicator construct is used for application-level discovery of, and adaptation to, both network topology and network quality-of-service mechanisms. We describe the MPICH-G2 design and implementation, present performance results, and review application experiences, including record-setting distributed simulations. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA).

Loose staggered-in-time coupling of two independent flow and mechanics simulators captures much of the complex physics at a substantially reduced cost. Two 3-D finite element simulators-Integrated Parallel Accurate Reservoir Simulator (IPARS) for flow and JAS3D for mechanics-together model multiphase fluid flow in reservoir rocks undergoing deformation ranging from linear elasticity to large, nonlinear inelastic compaction. The loose coupling algorithm uses a high-level driver to call the flow simulator for a set of time steps with fixed reservoir properties. Pore pressures from flow are used as loads for the geomechanics code in the determination of stresses, strains, and displacements. The mechanics-derived strain is used to calculate changes to the reservoir parameters (porosity and permeability) for the next set of flow time steps. Mass is conserved in the coupled code despite dynamically changing reservoir parameters via a modification to the Newton system for the flow equations, and an approximate rock compressibility becomes a useful preconditioner to help with convergence of the modified flow equations. Two numerical experiments illustrate the accuracy of the coupled code. The first example is a quarter-five-spot waterflood undergoing poroelastic deformation, which is validated against a fully coupled simulator. Vertical displacements at the well locations match to within 10%. Moreover, experimentation shows that 13 mechanics time steps (taken over the course of 5 years of simulation time) were sufficient to achieve this result (a substantial cost savings over full coupling in which both the mechanics and flow equations must be solved at each time step). The second numerical example is based on real data from the Belridge Field in California, which illustrates one of the complex plastic constitutive relationships available in the coupled code. The results mimic behavior which was observed in the field. The coupled code serves as a prototype for loosely coupling together any two preexisting simulators modeling diverse physics. This technique produces a coupled code relatively quickly and inexpensively and has the advantage of accurately modeling complex nonlinear phenomena often observed in a real field but difficult to capture with a fully coupled simulator. Further, the code has produced promising results when used for time-lapse studies of compactible reservoirs. Crown Copyright (C) 2003 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

This observation is consistent with the reactions carried out earlier with other olefins. Both of the absolute rates of addition to vinylbutyl ether and vinyl butyrate, in acetone and hexane, were measured at several temperatures. The relative rates are consistent with only modest stabilization of the transition state of the radical adduct by the alpha-O substituent compared with that of hydrogen atom addition to 1-octene. The relative rates measured in acetone and hexane indicate no significant differential solvation of the ground state relative to the transition structures of the hydrogen atom addition. The kinetics reveal that the early transition states for hydrogen atom addition exhibit little selectivity (vinyl ether versus simple olefin) in either the abstraction of hydrogen alpha to the oxygen or by terminal addition to the olefinic ether and reflects the modest influence of the increased enthalpy of reaction associated with resonance stabilization by the oxygen substituent at the developing radical site.

Our results show that higher-energy phases, such as the bcc structure for Al, Cu and Ti and the fcc structure for Nb, Mo, Ta and W, are always unstable with respect to one or more of transformation modes. Some local minima along the total energy profiles are found to correspond to the structures not dictated by the symmetry.

Neutron monitors operating at altitudes of 2000 m and 3200 m on Mt Aragats continuously gather data to detect possible abrupt enhancement of the count rates.. Additional high precision detectors, measuring muon and electron fluxes, along with directional information have been put in operation on Mt Aragats in the summer of 2002. We plan to use this information to establish an early warning system against extreme solar energetic particle (SEP) events which pose danger to the satellite electronics and the space station crew. Solar ion and proton fluxes as measured by space-borne sensors on ACE and GOES satellites are used to derive expected arrival times of highest energy ions at 1 AU. The peaks in the time series detected by Aragats neutron monitors, coincided with these times, demonstrate the possibility of early detection of SEP events using the ground-based detectors.

A series of single edge-notched bend (SENB) specimen designs with various levels of crack tip constraint were used. The variation of crack tip constraint was achieved by changing the ratio of the initial crack length to the specimen depth. The test data show that the J-R curves are specimen-design-dependent, which is known as the constraint effect. A two-parameter fracture methodology is adopted to construct a constraint-modified J-R curve, which is a function of the constraint parameter, A(2), while J remains the loading parameter. This additional fracture parameter is derived from a closed,form solution and can be extracted from the finite element analysis for a specific crack configuration. Using this set of SENB test data, a mathematical expression representing a family of the J-R curves,for A285 carbon steel can be developed. It is shown that the predicted J-R curves match well with the SENB data over an extensive amount of crack growth. In addition, this expression is used to predict the J-R curve of a compact tension specimen (CT), and reasonable agreement to the actual test data is achieved. To demonstrate its application in a flaw stability evaluation, the configuration of a generic A285 storage tank with a postulated axial flaw is used. For a flaw length of 10% of the tank height, the predicted J-R curve is found to be similar to that for a SENB specimen with a short notch, which is in a state of low constraint. This implies that the use of a J-R curve from the ASTM (American Society for Testing and Materials) standard designs, which typically are high-constraint specimens, may be overly conservative for analysis of fracture resistance of large structures.

The SERS sensitivity of the substrates was probed as a function of substrate parameters, such as silver-film thickness and silica-bead dimensions. The SERS signals were found to increase with an increase in silver-film thickness and silica-bead diameter until a maximum signal was reached. Additional increases in the film thickness or the bead diameter resulted in a decrease in the SERS signal. Maximum SERS response was obtained with a substrate made by vapor depositing a 6 nm thick coating of silver on a thin layer of silica beads with a nominal diameter of 565 nm. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the substrates was performed to consider the effect of surface morphology on the SERS responses. Optimal SERS substrates exhibited a detection limit of 5 x 10(-7) m for adsorbed benzoic acid. A linear relationship was demonstrated between the SERS response and the concentration of benzoic acid with two different slopes, one in the 10(-5)-10(-3) M range and the other in the 10(-3)-10(-1) m range.

We model the conflicts between jobs with a conflict graph, so that the set of all concurrently running jobs must form an independent set in the graph. This model is natural and general enough to have applications in a variety of settings; however, we are motivated by the following two specific applications: traffic intersection control and session scheduling in high speed local area networks with spatial reuse. Our results focus on two special classes of graphs motivated by our applications: bipartite graphs and interval graphs. The cost function we use is maximum response time. In all of the upper bounds, we devise algorithms which maintain a set of invariants which bound the accumulation of jobs on cliques (in the case of bipartite graphs, edges) in the graph. The lower bounds show that the invariants maintained by the algorithms are tight to within a constant factor. For a specific graph which arises in the traffic intersection control problem, we show a simple algorithm which achieves the optimal competitive ratio. C1 Univ Calif Irvine, Irvine, CA 92697 USA.

These high-performance, solar power systems have been in development for two decades with the primary focus in recent years on reducing the capital and operating costs of systems. Even though the systems currently cost about $10,000 US/kW installed, major cost reduction will occur with mass production and further development of the systems. Substantial progress has been made to improve reliability thereby reducing the operating and maintenance costs of the systems. As capital costs drop to about $3000 US/kW promising market opportunities appear to be developing in green power and distributed generation markets in the southwestern United States and in Europe. In this paper we review the current status of four Dish-Stirling systems that are being developed for commercial markets and present system specifications and review system performance and cost data. We also review the economics, capital cost, operating and maintenance costs, and the emerging. markets for Dish-Stirling systems.

Integrated energy and material balance calculations were made to determine the amount of hydrogen that could be produced from a given reactor size and heliostat field area.

The operating SEGS (Solar Electric Generating Systems located in Mojave Desert, California) plants currently use a high temperature synthetic oil consisting of a eutectic mixture of biphenyl/ diphenyl oxide. The scope of this investigation included examination of known critical issues, postulating solutions or possible approaches where potential problems exist, and the quantification of performance and electricity cost using preliminary cost inputs. The two leading candidates were the so-called solar salt (a binary salt consisting of 60% NaNO3 and 40% KNO3) and a salt sold commercially as HitecXL (a ternary salt consisting of 48% Ca(NO3)(2), 7% NaNO3, and 45% KNO3). Assuming a two-tank storage system and a maximum operation temperature of 450degreesC, the evaluation showed that the levelized electricity cost can be reduced by 14.2% compared to a state-of-the-art parabolic trough plant such as the SEGS plants. If higher temperatures are possible, the improvement may be as high as 17.6%. Thermocline salt storage systems offer even greater benefits. C1 Kearney & Associates, Vashon, WA 98070 USA.

A framework is presented for the assessment of turbulence models that includes documentation procedures, numerical accuracy, model sensitivity, and model validation. The accuracy of the simulations is addressed, and the sensitivities of the models to grid refinement, freestream turbulence levels, and wall y(+) spacing are presented. The flat-plate skin-friction results are compared to the well-established laminar and turbulent correlations of Van Driest. Correlations for the sharp cone are discussed in detail. These correlations, along with recent experimental data, are used to judge the validity of the simulation results for skin friction. and surface heating on the sharp cone. The Spalart-Allmaras model performs the best with regards to model sensitivity and model accuracy, whereas the Menter k-w model also performs well for these zero pressure gradient boundary-layer flows.

This concept is based on a staggered array of permeable poles placed in a magnetic solenoid that produces a longitudinal field. The concept permits variations in the short magnetic period of the undulator of as much as 100%. The unique capabilities of such undulators will allow them to be tuned by the variation of the period length and of the solenoid field. The device can be operated at either constant flux or constant power, independent of X-ray energy. It is expected that the new concept will have a major impact on the production and applications of X-rays because of the inherent simplicity and flexibility of the design and the absence of radiation damage.

It is shown that phenomena associated with the transition are functions of three independent dimensionless parameters including the dimensionless radius rounding, the edge of the end of the channel. The effect of each of these three parameters on the time-averaged pressure difference across the transition and the acoustic power dissipation is explored by holding two parameters fixed while varying the third. Evidence is presented that the losses due to oscillatory flow in this geometry are smaller than would be expected from commonly accepted values for steady flow in similar geometry.

J. Devaney, "Super-resolution imaging using time-reversal and MUSIC," J. Acoust. Soc. Am. (to be published)] is generalized to the case where the transmitter and receiver sensor arrays need not be coincident and for cases where the background medium can be nonreciprocal. The new theory developed herein is based on the singular value decomposition of the generalized multistatic data matrix of the sensor system rather than the standard eigenvector/eigenvalue decomposition of the time-reversal matrix as was employed in the above-mentioned work and other treatments of time-reversal imaging [Prada, Thomas, and Fink, "The iterative time reversal process: Analysis of the convergence," J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 97, 62 (1995); Prada et al., "Decomposition of the time reversal operator: Detection and selective focusing on two scatterers," J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 99, 2067 (1996)]. A generalized multiple signal classification (MUSIC) algorithm is derived that allows super-resolution imaging of both well-resolved and non-well-resolved point targets from arbitrary sensor array geometries. MUSIC exploits the orthogonal nature of the scatterer and noise subspaces defined by the singular vectors of the multistatic data matrix to form scatterer images. The time-reversal/MUSIC algorithm is tested and validated in two computer simulations of offset vertical seismic profiling where the sensor sources are aligned along the earth's surface and the receiver array is aligned along a subsurface borehole. All results demonstrate the high contrast, high resolution imaging capabilities of this new algorithm combination when compared with "classical" backpropagation or field focusing. Above and beyond the application of seismo-acoustic imaging, the time-reversal super-resolution theory has applications in ocean acoustics for target location, and ultrasonic nondestructive evaluation of parts.

Particulate S at Big Bend is of concern because of its effects on atmospheric visibility. The analysis used particulate S, SO2, and perfluorocarbon tracer data from six 6-hr sampling sites in and near Big Bend National Park. The data were collected in support of the Big Bend Regional Aerosol and Visibility Observational (BRAVO) Study; the field portion was conducted from July through October 1999. Perfluorocarbon tracer was released continuously from a tower at Eagle Pass, TX, approximately 25 km-northeast of two large coal-fired power plants (Carbon I and 11) in Coahuila, Mexico, and approximately 270 km east-south-east of Big Bend National Park. The perfluorocarbon tracer did not properly represent the location of the emissions from the Carbon power plants for individual, 6-hr sampling periods and attributed only 3% of the particulate S and 27% of the SO2 at the 6-hr sites in and near Big Bend to sources represented by the tracer. An alternative approach using SO2 to tag "local" sources such as the Carbon plants attributed 10% of the particulate S and 75% of the SO2 at the 6-hr sites to local sources. Based on these two approaches, most of the regional (65-86%) and a small fraction (19-31%) of the local. SO2 was converted to particulate S. The analysis implies that substantial reductions in particulate S at Big Bend National Park cannot be achieved by only reducing emissions from the Carbon power plants; reduction of emissions from many sources over a regional area would be necessary.

The methodology utilizes time resolved limited proteolysis and the high throughput analysis capability of MALDI TOF MS to determine the binding site in a tetanus toxin C-fragment (51 kDa)-doxorubicin (543 Da) non-covalent complex. Comparing relative ion abundances of peptides released from the time resolved limited proteolysis of tetanus toxin C-fragment (TetC) and the TetC-doxorubicin complex every 10 min from 10 to 120 min of digestion revealed that the binding of doxorubicin induced a significant change in surface topology of TetC. Four of the twenty-nine peptides observed by MALDI MS, including amino acids 351-360, 299-304, 305-311 and 312-316, had a lower abundance in the TetC-doxorubicin complex relative to TetC from 10 to 100 min of digestion. A decrease in ion abundance suggests doxorubicin obstructs the access of the protease to one or both termini of these peptides, identifying doxorubicin binding site(s). Conversely, five peptide ions, including amino acids 335-350, 364-375, 364-376, 281-298, and 316-328, all had a greater abundance in the digest of the complex, indicating an increase in accessibility to these sites. These five peptides flank regions of decreased ion abundance, suggesting that doxorubicin not only binds to the surface, but also induces a conformational change in TetC.

A main objective of this study is to obtain a quantitative assessment of the quality of the turbulent dynamics for this type of boundary layer clouds as produced by the different LES codes. A 6-h simulation shows excellent model-to-model agreement of the observed vertical thermodynamical structure, reasonable agreement of variances and turbulent fluxes, and good agreement of quantities conditionally sampled within the model clouds, such as cloud cover, liquid water, and cloud updraft strength. In the second part of this paper the LES dataset is used to evaluate simple models that are used in parameterizations of current general circulation models (GCMs). Finally, the relation of this work to subsequent LES studies of more complicated regimes is discussed, and guidance is given for the design of future observational studies of shallow cumulus boundary layers.

In situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) was employed for the characterization of the Pd particles and the results confirmed that they possess metallic character. At low potentials, hydrogen is incorporated into the Pd lattice resulting in an increase in both the average Pd-Pd bond distance as well as the structural disorder. XAS results also indicated that a considerable fraction of the total Pd atoms is located in the surface of the electrodeposit, as expected for such a high surface area material. No activity for the HOR is seen for the PT films in the absence of catalysts. For the catalyzed PT films, a chemical reaction involving atomic adsorbed hydrogen atoms on Pt or Pd and the carbon radical in the polaronic PT species may occur causing a progressive degradation of the film properties during HOR. The Pd-modified electrode exhibits a considerable catalytic activity for ORR. Above 0.3 V, only formation of hydrogen peroxide occurs, leading to a two electron ORR mechanism. For smaller potentials, further reduction of H2O2 to water occurs, resulting in a four electron global process. (C) 2003 The Electrochemical Society.

Theoretically, electrochemical pumping can separate and concentrate CO2 from the atmosphere or other gases with <1% CO2 at significantly lower energy cost than current systems. Principles of electrochemical pumping for CO2 separations are discussed and results for both organic solvent and ionic liquid working fluid systems are presented. Due to the large quantities of gases requiring processing during the separation/concentration of <1% CO2 gases, this work looked at solvents with negligible vapor pressures, specifically propylene carbonate and the room-temperature ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate. Other important parameters, as illustrated by the data and models presented, are low CO2 solubility in the solvent, high CO2 carrier solubility, CO2 binding constants, and the CO2 carrier's electrochemistry. Reported is the electrochemical pumping of CO2 from 0.5% (in nitrogen) to 100%, a 200-fold increase in partial pressure, using the CO2 carrier 2,6-di-tert-butyl-1,4-benzoquinone in a propylene carbonate solution. The ratio of CO2 moles pumped per electron mole was 0.43. The models determined the optimal CO2 solubility in the solvent and the required redox swing in the CO2 binding constants of the carrier.

In this paper, we present results on oxidation of metal films such as Zr, Hf, and Al by the ultraviolet (UV) ozone oxidation method. A nuclear reaction analysis technique, the O-16(d,alpha)N-14 nuclear reaction, was used to quantify the oxygen concentration in the dielectric stacks. The method was found to be sensitive to monolayer levels of oxygen. It was found that the oxidation kinetics of the metals increased significantly due to the presence of UV light. The oxidation rate was also found to depend on the oxygen partial pressure. The oxidation rate of Zr was greater than that of Hf, while Al oxidized more slowly than Hf for the UV-ozone oxidation conditions investigated. Possible reasons for the observed oxidation behavior are discussed in detail. (C) 2003 The Electrochemical Society. C1 Stanford Univ, Dept Mat Sci & Engn, Stanford, CA 94305 USA.

They were compounds dissociating into bulky cations and small anions (tetralkylammonium chlorides and hydroxides, Methylene Blue), into bulky anions and small cations (phenols, mono- and poly-carboxylic acids, and fluorescein sodium salt), organic acids, and bases (tetralkylammonium hydroxides), and bulky, non-dissociating, polar compounds (Malachite Green and maltodextrin). We selected these compounds in order to contribute to the knowledge of how electrostatic interactions, the size and structure of the additive, and surface sorption onto alumina influence the rheological properties of colloidal alumina suspensions. We focused on low molecular weight additives, of different shape to influence interparticle electrostatic interactions as the most essential in reducing the shear stress at a given strain rate. The size and structure effects of these low molecular weight additives may be overshadowed by interparticle electrostatic interactions. In the case of non-dissociating macromolecules (e.g., maltodextrin), electrostatic interparticle interactions are minimal, and sorption is a principal factor influencing rheology.

Rev. B (2002), to be submitted]. The rationale for such behavior was based on the availability of dislocation sources at the grain boundary for initiating plasticity. In order to verify or refute this theory, a computational approach has been pursued. Here, a simulation study of the initial stages of indentation using the embedded atom method (EAM) is presented. First, the principles of the EAM are given, and a comparison is made between atomistic simulations and continuum models for elastic deformation. Then, the mechanism of dislocation nucleation in single crystalline gold is analyzed, and the effects of elastic anisotropy are considered. Finally, a systematic study of the indentation response in the proximity of a high angle, high sigma (low symmetry) grain boundary is presented; indentation behavior is simulated for varying indenter positions relative to the boundary. The results indicate that high angle grain boundaries are a ready source of dislocations in indentation-induced deformation. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.

We investigate guided-mode band structures for different waveguide configurations by numerical calculations that combine a plane-wave expansion method with a supercell technique. The in-plane waveguide network composed of waveguides along the (100) and (010) directions of the crystal is located in a single layer of the photonic crystal. This structural design is easy to achieve experimentally. One can create these in-plane waveguides either by removing one single rod or by breaking a segment in each of an array of parallel rods. One produces the off-plane waveguide by removing some segments of rods along the (001) stacking direction of the crystal. Single-mode operation of a waveguide can be achieved by appropriate adjustment of geometrical parameters such as the location and the size of the waveguide. Intrinsic lattice symmetries in these photonic crystal waveguides have been fully employed to reduce the complexity of the numerical solution of guided-mode band structures significantly.

This represents over an order of magnitude increase from the previously reported single-pass geometry. The results agree with a simple model for anti-Stokes fluorescence cooling that includes considerations of quantum efficiency and parasitic heating mechanisms. Issues relating to a practical optical refrigerator are examined, including a general model for the effects of multiple pump passes. (C) 2003 Optical Society of America.

In this underdoped superconductor, we found clear fingerprints of the parent insulator: a shadow band and a large pseudogap. These observations are most likely described by a "chemical potential shift", which contrasts clearly with the prevailing wisdom of the "pinned chemical potential" learned from the prototype La2-xSrxCuO4, demonstrating that the route to a high-T-c superconductor is not unique.

It is believed that the surface composition of the powder grains ultimately affects packing density. XPS quantitative analysis revealed O/U ratios indicative of mixed uranium valences. In addition, high-resolution U4f(7/2,5/2) core-level spectra revealed reoxidation of U4+ to U6+ for the lower temperatures, and a reduction of U6+ to U4+ for the higher temperatures using 4% H-2/Ar. Reoxidation can also be affected by the presence of water or OH, and the powder samples calcined at the lower temperatures have the highest OH-/O2- peak area ratio. The valence-and electronic structure for the higher-temperature calcinations clearly shows a stronger 5f emission peak near the Fermi edge, a feature that is indicative of a highly localized state. Bulk structural analysis using x-ray diffraction also indicates a number of uranium oxide phases produced by calcination. However, at 600 degreesC the UO2 cubic phase resulted.

The crimped-capillary leak was used as a single-stage pressure-reduction device between a gas inlet manifold and an ultrahigh-vacuum mass spectrometer. The steady state flows of binary gas mixtures (H-2-He-4 and H-2-D-2) through the crimped-capillary leak into the mass spectrometer vacuum chamber (<10(-9) Torr) were characterized over a pressure range from 5 to 5000 Torr. At pressures <5 and >1500 Torr, the gas flow is close to Knudsen diffusion (molecular flow) and viscous flow, respectively. The transition from the Knudsen diffusion to viscous flow takes place over 2 decades of pressure and is at a lower pressure range than can be explained by the combined Knudsen diffusion and viscous flow theories. This article considers the contribution of molecular diffusion (ordinary diffusion) to the theory of gas flow through crimped-capillary leak and presents a mathematical model for a multicomponent gas mixture. This model successfully predicts gas flow over a wide range of pressures especially in the transition flow regime for binary gas mixtures. (C) 2003 American Vacuum Society.

The plasma-potential oscillations were measured by a glass-enclosed capacitive probe immersed in the plasma. We used rf-potential and current sensors installed at the output of the chuck's matching network and a calibrated equivalent circuit model to compute the chuck potential wave form. The plasma density and electron temperature were measured using a floating Langmuir double probe. Time-resolved measurements were made throughout the etch and deposition cycles of the Bosch process. Plasma densities in the reactor were quite nonuniform, with plasma densities close to the wafer chuck being more than a factor of 4 lower than densities in the center of the "bulk plasma" formed by the induction coil. Estimates of the ion energy distribution were obtained from a validated numerical model that employed the experimental data. For standard process conditions during the main etch part of the cycle, the chuck potential oscillations were in excess of 100 V-PP, but, because of the low plasma density near the wafer (>2 x 10(10) cm(-3)) and potential averaging across the resulting large sheath. width (600 mum), the width of the calculated argon ion energy distribution (IED) was. only 25 eV, for a double peaked IED centered about 80 eV The influence of rf-bias, plasma density,. and ion mass on the IEDs were also investigated.

Porosity and matrix permeability measurements and petrographic examination of the cores were used to evaluate the effects of lithology and hydrothermal alteration on porosity and permeability. The intervals studied in these two core holes span the conductive zone and the upper portion of the convective geothermal reservoir. Variations in porosity and matrix permeability observed in the Y-5 and Y-8 cores are primarily controlled by lithology. Y-8 intersects three distinct lithologies: volcaniclastic sandstone, perlitic rhyolitic lava, and non-welded pumiceous ash-flow tuff. The sandstone typically has high permeability and porosity, and the tuff has very high porosity and moderate permeability, while the perlitic lava has very low porosity and is essentially impermeable. Hydrothermal self-sealing appears to have generated localized permeability barriers within the reservoir. Changes in pressure and temperature in Y-8 correspond to a zone of silicification in the volcaniclastic sandstone just above the contact with the perlitic rhyolite; this silicification has significantly reduced porosity and permeability. In rocks with inherently low matrix permeability (such as densely welded ash-flow tuff), fluid flow is controlled by the fracture network. The Y-5 core hole penetrates a thick intracaldera section of the 0.6-Ma Lava Creek ash-flow tuff. In this core, the degree of welding appears to be responsible for most of the variations in porosity, matrix permeability, and the frequency of fractures and veins. Fractures are most abundant within the more densely welded sections of the tuff. However, the most prominent zones of fracturing and mineralization are associated with hydrothermal breccias within densely welded portions of the tuff. These breccia zones represent transient conduits of high fluid flow that formed by the explosive release of overpressure in the underlying geothermal reservoir and that were subsequently sealed by supersaturated geothermal fluids. In addition to this fracture sealing, hydrothermal alteration at Yellowstone appears generally to reduce matrix permeability and focus flow along fractures, where multiple pulses of fluid flow and self-sealing have occurred.

Most of these studies utilize tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) to obtain structural information for complex molecules. Tandem mass spectrometry, (MS/MS) typically involves the mass selection of a primary ion, its activation by collision or photon excitation, unimolecular decay into fragment ions characteristic of the ion structure and its internal excitation, and mass analysis of the fragment ions. Although the fundamental principles of tandem mass spectrometry of relatively small molecules are fairly well-understood, our understanding of the activation and fragmentation of large molecules is much more primitive. For small ions, a single energetic collision is sufficient to dissociate the ion; however this is not the case for complex molecules. For large ions, two fundamental limits severely constrain fragmentation in tandem mass spectrometry. First, the center-of-mass collision energy - the absolute tipper limit of energy transfer in a collision process - decreases with increasing mass of the projectile ion for fixed ion kinetic energy and neutral mass. Secondly, the dramatic increase in density of states with increasing internal degrees of freedom of the ion decreases the rate of dissociation by many orders of magnitude at a given internal energy. Consequently, most practical MS/MS experiments with complex ions involve multiple-collision activation (MCA-CID), multi-photon activation, or surface-induced dissociation (SID). This review is focused on what has been learned in recent research studies concerned with fundamental aspects of MCA-CID and SID of model peptides, with an emphasis on experiments carried out with Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometers (FT-ICR MS). These studies provide the first quantitative comparison of gas-phase muiltiple-collision activation and SID of peptide ions. Combining collisional energy-resolved data with RRKM-based modeling revealed the effect of peptide size and identity on energy transfer in collisions-very important characteristics of ion activation from fundamental and the analytical perspectives. Finally, the combination of FT-ICR with SID was utilized to carry out the first time-resolved experiments that examine the kinetics of peptide fragmentation. This has lead to the discovery that the time-dependence of ion dissociation varies smoothly up to a certain collision energy, and then shifts dramatically to a time-independent, extensive dissociation. This near-instantaneous "shattering" of the ion generates a large number of relatively small fragment ions. Shattering of ions on surfaces opens up a variety of dissociation pathways that are not accessible with multiple-collision and multiphoton excitation. (C) 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

A double shear creep test technique is used to study the shear creep behavior of four specific macroscopic crystallographic shear systems defined by a specific crystallographic shear plane and a specific crystallographic shear direction (systems investigated: {001}<110>, {100}<010>, {011}<01-1>, and {111}<01-1>). The shear creep behavior is analyzed in terms of the shape of individual creep curves and in terms of the stress and the temperature dependence of the secondary shear creep rate. Individual creep curves are generally characterized by a pronounced primary creep range where creep rates decrease by up to three orders of magnitude. A sharp creep rate minimum is not observed. The secondary creep range starts at shear stresses of the order of 0.02 and is followed by a secondary creep range which extends over shear strain ranges of the order of 0.1. No pronounced increase of shear creep rate in the later stages of creep is observed. Norton plots yield power law stress exponents ranging from 5.5 to 9.7. The temperature dependence of the secondary creep rate is of an Arrhenius type and apparent activation energies between 549 and 690 kJ/mol were found. There is a clear influence of crystallography on shear creep rates, which vary between different macroscopic crystallographic shear systems; this effect decreases with increasing temperature. The shear creep results obtained in the present study are discussed in the light of results from uniaxial testing and in the light of underlying microscopic deformation processes.

The convective transport of heat by the water and the conductive exchange with the interior pipe wall are described by an exact but highly singular micro-model. The limiting form of this parabolic initial-boundary-value problem is a distributed microstructure model, which can successively be better approximated by simpler first- and second-order kinetic models. This model provides a means to validate and calibrate these classical multi-temperature kinetic models which are used to describe the delay. C1 Univ Texas, Dept Math, Austin, TX 78712 USA.

Methods: As an example, we evaluated the design of the Aerobics Center Longitudinal Study (ACLS). This study compared apparent changes in fitness between two baseline visits to mortality during a subsequent 5-yr follow-up period. Unfit men who were reclassified as fit at the second baseline examination (6.6% of sample) and fit men who were reclassified as unfit (2.3%) had follow-up mortality rates that were between those of men who were consistently classified as fit or unfit. This study design was simulated assuming that differences between baseline treadmill test durations were due to measurement error alone. Based on our own data, we estimated that repeat measurements of treadmill test duration have correlation of r = 0.89 in the absence of any real fitness change. Results: There is excellent agreement between the published ACLS risk reductions and our simulated reductions for both cardiovascular disease (CVD) and total mortality. Compared with the "Unfit-->Unfit" (the referent group), the estimated relative risks from the simulations for men who were reclassified as fit (i.e., "Unfit-->Fit") were 0.57 for total mortality and 0.52 for CVD mortality, and for men who remained classified as fit ("Fit-->Fit"), they were 0.33 for total mortality and 0.20 for CVD mortality. Conclusion: The imprecision of the fitness measurement alone (i.e., measurement error) is sufficient to produce the reported ACLS risk reductions in initially unfit men who get reclassified as fit in a subsequent clinic visit. This statistical artifact will apply to other studies that use this design. C1 Univ Calif Berkeley, Lawrence Berkeley Lab, Div Life Sci, Berkeley, CA 94720 USA.

The use of computational thermodynamic algorithms combined with solidification-path calculations based on experimentally determined solute-partition data eliminates the need for many assumptions and serves as the basis for the solute-redistribution model that is presented here. A new series of solidification sequences for HASTELLOY C-22 and C-276 is proposed based on this model, and these conclusions are supported by the microstructural characterization presented in the previous work.

The system employs spatially and temporally patterned illumination produced by one of several mechanisms, including a micromirror array video projection device driven by a computer video source or a microlens array scanned by a piezo actuator in the microscope illumination path. A series of subsampled "component" video images are acquired from a solid-state video camera. Confocal images are digitally reconstructed using "virtual pinhole" synthetic aperture techniques applied to the collection of component images. Unlike conventional confocal techniques that raster scan a single detector and illumination point, our system samples multiple locations in parallel, with particular advantages for monitoring fast dynamic processes. We compared methods of patterned illumination and confocal image reconstruction by characterizing the point spread function, contrast, and intensity of imaged objects. Sample 3D reconstructions include a diatom and a Golgi-stained nerve cell collected in transmission. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science (USA). All rights reserved.

In a 2-year field study, seasonal abundance measurements were conducted for fast-growing bacterial heterotrophs, humate-degrading actinomycetes, fungal heterotrophs, and fluorescent pseudomonads that represent the decomposers in soil. Links between plant health and soil microbiota abundance in pinyon rhizospheres were documented across two soil types: a dry, nutrient-poor volcanic cinder field and a sandy-loam soil. On the stressful cinder fields, we identified relationships between soil decomposer abundance, pinyon age, and stress due to insect herbivory. Across seasonal variation, consistent differences in microbial decomposer abundance were identified between the cinders and sandy-loam soil. Abundance of bacterial heterotrophs and humate-degrading actinomycetes was affected by both soil nutritional status and the pinyon rhizosphere. In contrast, abundance of the fungal heterotrophs and fluorescent pseudomonads was affected primarily by the pinyon rhizosphere. On the cinder field, the three bacterial groups were more abundant on 150-year-old trees than on 60-year-old trees, whereas fungal heterotrophs were unaffected by tree age. Fungal heterotrophs and actinomycetes were more abundant on insect-resistant trees than on susceptible trees, but the opposite was true for the fluorescent pseudomonads. Although all four groups were present in all the environments, the four microbial groups were affected differently by the pinyon rhizosphere, by tree age, and by tree stress caused by the cinder soil and insect herbivory.

The three frameworks included embedded atom method potentials used in molecular dynamics simulations, crystal plasticity used in finite element simulations, and a macroscale internal state variable formulation used in finite element simulations. Simple shear simulations were performed in which the specimen aspect ratio was varied to give insight into the homogeneous and inhomogeneous aspects of large deformation. This study revealed that the 'apparent' yield stress was sensitive to the specimen aspect ratio except when the length-to-height ratio reached about 8:1, the yield stress remained constant. The three numerical frameworks gave similar qualitative responses related to inhomogeneous stress and strain distributions in the corner regions of the specimens and also similar responses in the centralized homogeneous deformation region. However, when comparing the shear stress distribution for the finite element analyses to the atomistic simulations, a much narrower distribution arose for the finite element analyses due to the lack of thermal vibrations experienced in the atomistic simulations at 300 K. A 10 K an atomistic simulation which dampened out the high frequency thermal vibrations verified this reasoning. Three different sizes of blocks of atoms were also used in the atomistic simulations and the results showed very similar stress and strain distributions with respect to each other indicating that no size scale effect is evidenced when normalized by the global shear stress. However, a size scale effect exists related to the global (volume average) shear stress in the specimen. As the specimen size increased, the yield stress decreased. Finally, when comparing the three different numerical frameworks, the location of maximum dislocation nucleation occurred at the location of the maximum plastic spin, stress gradients, and strain gradients.

Embedding, density and pair functions for pure Cu and pure Pb are taken from previously published EAM studies. Optimization of the Cu-Pb potential was achieved by comparing with experiment the computed heats of mixing for Cu-Pb liquid alloys and the equilibrium phase diagram, the latter being determined via a thermodynamic integration technique. The topology of the temperature-composition phase diagram computed with this EAM potential is consistent with experiment and features a liquid-liquid miscibility gap, low solubility of Pb in solid Cu and a monotectic reaction at approximately 1012 K.

In this paper, the migration of an interface driven by a difference in the stored energy of deformation across the interface is simulated using a Monte Carlo approach where the stored energy of deformation is represented as the surface energy of cells/subgrains formed by dynamic recovery during deformation. The interface migration velocity is calculated as a function of the driving force as well as the interface mobility. The simulations capture the linear relationship between interface velocity and driving force for constant interface mobility, and also between interface velocity and mobility for constant driving force, assuming that there is no recovery of the subgrain structure in the bulk of the material during interface migration, and the lattice temperatures are high enough to prevent the locking of the interface in positions of local energy minima. In the presence of simultaneous recovery by subgrain growth in the bulk, the driving force across the interface gradually decreases during interface migration, causing a decrease in the interface velocity.

Crystal structures of soluble, N-terminally truncated pilin from Vibrio cholera toxin-coregulated pilus (TCP) and full-length PAK pilin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa reveal a novel TCP fold, yet a shared architecture for the type IV pilins. In each pilin subunit a conserved, extended, N-terminal alpha helix wrapped by beta strands anchors the structurally variable globular head. Inside the assembled pilus, characterized by cryo-electron microscopy and crystallography, the extended hydrophobic alpha helices make multisubunit contacts to provide mechanical strength and flexibility. Outside, distinct interactions of adaptable heads contribute surface variation for specificity of pilus function in antigenicity, motility, adhesion, and colony formation.

The association domain forms a hub-like assembly, composed of two rings of seven protomers each, which are stacked head to head and held together by extensive interfaces. The tetradecameric organization of the assembly was confirmed by analytical ultracentrifugation and multiangle light scattering. Individual protomers form wedge-shaped structures from which N-terminal helical segments that connect to the kinase domain extend toward the equatorial plane of the assembly, consistent with the arrangement of the kinase domains in a second outer ring. A deep and highly conserved pocket present within the association domain may serve as a docking site for proteins that interact with CaMKII. C1 Rockefeller Univ, New York, NY 10021 USA.

Experimental evidence suggests that TP activity may be modulated by novel ligands, termed the isoprostanes, that paradoxically act as TP agonists in smooth muscle and TP antagonists in platelet preparations. Here we have investigated whether prototypical isoprostanes 8-iso-prostaglandin (PG)F-2alpha and 8-iso-PGE(2) regulate the activity of TP isoforms expressed in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells using activator protein-1 (AP-1)-luciferase activity as a reporter. AP-1-luciferase activity was increased by a TP agonist [9,11-dideoxy-9alpha,11alpha-methanoepoxy PGF(2alpha) (U46619)] in CHO cells transfected with the human TP-P and TP-E receptors, and this response was fully inhibited by TP antagonists [1S-[1alpha,2beta(Z),3alpha,5alpha]]-7-[3-[[4-iodophenyl)sulfonyl]amino]-6,6-dimethylbicyclo[3.1.1]hept-2-yl]-5-heptenoic acid (I-SAP) and [1S-[1alpha,2alpha(Z),3alpha,4alpha]]-7-[[2[(phenylamino)carbonyl]hydrazino] methyl]-7-oxabicyclo[2.2.1]hept-2-yl]-5-heptenoic acid (SQ 29,548)]. AP-1-luciferase activity was potently (nanomolar concentrations) increased by 8-iso-PGE(2) in CHO TP-P and TP-E cells, and this response was partially inhibited by cotreatment of cells with TP antagonists, whereas 8-iso-PGF(2alpha) was without effect. Cyclooxygenase inhibitors did not abolish 8-iso-PGE(2) mediated AP-1-luciferase activity, indicating that this response is not dependent on de novo TXA(2) biosynthesis. Interestingly, 8-iso-PGE(2)-mediated AP-1 -luciferase activity was near maximal in naive cells between 1 and 10 nM concentrations, and this response was not inhibited by TP antagonist or reproduced by agonists for TP or EP1/EP3 receptors. These observations 1) support a role for novel ligands in the regulation of TP-dependent signaling, 2) indicate that TP-P and TP-E couple to AP-1, 3) provide further evidence that isoprostanes function as TP agonists in a cell-type specific fashion, and 4) indicate that additional targets regulated by 8-iso-PGE(2) couple to AP-1.

The MRSDCI calculations included up to 6 million configurations. Two very low-lying electronic states are found as candidates for the ground state of VC, namely a high spin state (4)Delta and a low-spin (2)Delta state, which is favoured at higher levels. A number of low-lying excited electronic states of VC are predicted, which are yet to be observed. The low-lying electronic states of VC are found to be ionic as inferred from the dipole moments and the charge density calculations. Electron donation and the back-donation process are suggested to be operative in the V-C bond formation. C1 Univ Calif Davis, Dept Appl Sci, Livermore, CA 94550 USA.

The helical nanosprings were observed in the middle of a straight nanowire and were formed by a perturbation during the growth of the straight nanowire. Contraction and expansion of the helical nanosprings were observed under in situ electron beam heating during TEM, as well as bending induced by an AFM tip, suggesting that the helical nanosprings are highly flexible and may have potential applications in nanomechanical, nanoelectronmagnetic devices, and composite materials.

Deterministically synthesized VACNFs were modified with either adsorbed or covalently-linked plasmid DNA and were subsequently inserted into cells. Post insertion viability of the cells was demonstrated by continued proliferation of the interfaced cells and long-term (>22 day) expression of the introduced plasmid. Adsorbed plasmids were typically desorbed in the intracellular domain and segregated to progeny cells. Covalently bound plasmids remained tethered to nanofibres and were expressed in interfaced cells but were not partitioned into progeny, and gene expression ceased when the nanofibre was no longer retained. This provides a method for achieving a genetic modification that is non-inheritable and whose extent in time can be directly and precisely controlled. These results demonstrate the potential of VACNF arrays as an intracellular interface for monitoring and controlling subcellular and molecular phenomena within viable cells for applications including biosensors, in vivo diagnostics, and in vivo logic devices.

The functional, soluble fragment of TALL-1 (sTALL-1) forms a virus-like assembly for its proper function. Here we determine the crystal structures of sTALL-1 complexed with the extracellular domains of BCMA and BAFF-R at 2.6 and 2.5 Angstrom, respectively. The single cysteine-rich domain of BCMA and BAFF-R both have saddle-like architectures, which sit on the horseback-like surface formed by four coil regions on each individual sTALL-1 monomer. Three novel structural modules, D2, X2 and N, were revealed from the current structures. Sequence alignments, structural modelling and mutagenesis revealed that one disulphide bridge in BAFF-R is critical for determining the binding specificity of the extracellular domain eBAFF-R to TALL-1 instead of APRIL, a closely related ligand of TALL-1, which was confirmed by binding experiments in vitro.

NO. 157002; PHOTOEMISSION SPECTROSCOPY; BI2SR2CACU2O8; BORON AB Magnesium diboride, MgB2, has the highest transition temperature (T-c = 39 K) of the known metallic superconductors(1). Whether the anomalously high T-c can be described within the conventional BCS (Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer) framework 2 has been debated. The key to understanding superconductivity lies with the 'superconducting energy gap' associated with the formation of the superconducting pairs. Recently, the existence of two kinds of superconducting gaps in MgB2 has been suggested by several experiments(3-9); this is in contrast to both conventional and high-T-c superconductors. A clear demonstration of two gaps has not yet been made because the previous experiments lacked the ability to resolve the momentum of the superconducting electrons. Here we report direct experimental evidence for the two-band superconductivity in MgB2, by separately observing the superconducting gaps of the sigma and pi bands (as well as a surface band). The gaps have distinctly different sizes, which unambiguously establishes MgB2 as a two-gap superconductor(10,11). C1 Tohoku Univ, Dept Phys, Sendai, Miyagi 9808578, Japan.

Little is known about how higher-order chromatin packaging might affect gene expression. SATB1 is a cell-type specific nuclear protein that recruits chromatin-remodeling factors and regulates numerous genes during thymocyte differentiation. Here we show that in thymocyte nuclei, SATB1 has a cage-like 'network' distribution circumscribing heterochromatin and selectively tethers specialized DNA sequences onto its network. This was shown by fluorescence in situ hybridization on wild-type and Satb1-null thymocytes using in vivo SATB1-bound sequences as probes. Many gene loci, including that of Myc and a brain-specific gene, are anchored by the SATB1 network at specific genomic sites, and this phenomenon is precisely correlated with proper regulation of distant genes. Histone-modification analyses across a gene-enriched genomic region of 70 kb showed that acetylation of histone H3 at Lys9 and Lys14 peaks at the SATB1-binding site and extends over a region of roughly 10 kb covering genes regulated by SATB1. By contrast, in Satb1-null thymocytes, this site is marked by methylation at H3 Lys9. We propose SATB1 as a new type of gene regulator with a novel nuclear architecture, providing sites for tissue-specific organization of DNA sequences and regulating region-specific histone modification.

The main mammalian tumour-suppressor pathways evolved from ancient mechanisms that, in simple post-mitotic organisms, act predominantly to regulate embryogenesis or to protect the germline. The shift from developmental and/or germline maintenance in simple organisms to somatic maintenance in complex organisms might have evolved at a cost. Recent evidence indicates that some mammalian tumour-suppressor mechanisms contribute to ageing. How might this have happened, and what are its implications for our ability to control cancer and ageing?. C1 Univ Calif Berkeley, Lawrence Berkeley Lab, Div Life Sci, Berkeley, CA 94720 USA.

DCX tandems are found in doublecortin, a 360-residue protein expressed in migrating neurons; the doublecortin-like kinase (DCLK); the product of the RP1 gene that is responsible for a form of inherited blindness; and several other proteins. Mutations in the gene encoding doublecortin cause lissencephaly in males and the 'double-cortex syndrome' in females. We here report a solution structure of the N-terminal DCX domain of human doublecortin and a 1.5 Angstrom resolution crystal structure of the equivalent domain from human DCLK. Both show a stable, ubiquitin-like tertiary fold with distinct structural similarities to GTPase-binding domains. We also show that the C-terminal DCX domains of both proteins are only partially folded. In functional assays, the N-terminal DCX domain of doublecortin binds only to assembled microtubules, whereas the C-terminal domain binds to both microtubules and unpolymerized tubulin.

For the fear drive, the controlling hormone is corticotropin releasing factor, and we argue that elevated CSF and plasma levels of this peptide which occur as a result of fear-evoking and other stressful experiences in the recent past are detected and transduced into neuronal activities by neurons in the vicinity of the third ventricle, primarily in the periventricular and arcuate hypothalamic nuclei. For the power-dominance drive, we propose that the primary signal is the CSF concentration of vasopressin, which is detected in two circumventricular organs, the subfornical organ and organum vasculosum of the lamina terminalis. We suggest that the peptide-generated signals detected in periventricular structures are transmitted to four areas in which neuronal activities represent fear and power-dominance: one in the medial hypothalamus, one in the dorsolateral quadrant of the periaqueductal gray matter, a third in the midline thalamic nuclei, and the fourth within medial prefrontal cortex. The probable purpose of this system is to maintain a state of fear or anger and consequent vigilant or aggressive behavior after the initial fear- or anger-inducing stimulus is no longer perceptible. We further propose that all the motivational drives, including thirst, hunger and sexual desire are generated in part by non-steroidal hormonal signals, and that the unstimulated motivational status of an individual is determined by the relative CSF and plasma levels of several peptide hormones.

Therefore, any theory which attempts to describe molecular cloud evolution and star formation must include a consideration of the dynamics of colliding flows. Previous studies have considered the collision of supersonic streams or clouds. The resultant instabilities provide a mechanism which may give rise to observable cloud morphologies and enhance the star formation rate. One such instability is the nonlinear thin shell instability (NTSI) of a shock-bounded slab. This process is driven by ram pressure and efficient cooling. In this study, I use numerical simulations to examine the head-on collision of supersonic gas streams in a cold, molecular gas. A dense slab forms in the collision midplane and is prone to a number of instabilities, including the NTSI. The thermodynamic processes involved are found to have a controlling influence upon the instability and fragmentation of the slab. Although some minimal amount of cooling is needed to drive the instability, too rapid a cooling rate gives rise to smaller wavelength instabilities which wipe out the NTSI. The growth rate of the NTSI in a gas undergoing molecular cooling corresponds to a timescale of order 10(12) s, in general agreement with the theoretical value for an isothermal gas. The NTSI may provide a viable mechanism for the instigation of rapid star formation. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

During field tests, the range of calculated mean entry velocities was 9.3-13.7 m/s for low (28.3 m(3)/s) and high (68.0-70.2 m(3)/s) outfall discharge rates and two receiving water elevations. Mortality and injury rates of balloon-tagged hatchery juvenile spring chinook salmon O. tshawytscha in the field tests were less than 1%. At a high-velocity flume in a laboratory, small (87-100 mm fork length [FL]) and large (135-150 mm FL) hatchery fall chinook salmon were exposed to velocities of 0.0-24.4 m/s in a fast-fish-to-slow-water scenario. Jet entry velocities up to 15.2 m/s provided benign passage conditions for the sizes and physiological states of juvenile salmonids tested under the particular environmental conditions present during this study. Our results of direct injury and mortality indicate that a jet entry velocity up to 15.2 m/s should safely pass juvenile salmon at high-flow outfalls. It will be necessary, however, to conduct site-specific, postconstruction verification studies of fish injury and mortality at new high-flow outfalls.

A figure of merit for fusion gain (beta(N)H(89)/q(95)(2)) has been maintained at values corresponding to Q = 10 operation in a burning plasma for > 6 s or 36tau(E) and 2-tau(R). The key element is the relaxation of the current profile to a stationary state with q(min) > 1. In the absence of sawteeth and fishbones, stable operation has been achieved up to the estimated no-wall P limit. Feedback control of the energy content and particle inventory allow reproducible, stationary operation. The particle inventory is controlled by gas fuelling and active pumping; the wall plays only a small role in the particle balance. The reduced current lessens significantly the potential for structural damage in the event of a major disruption. In addition, the pulse length capability is greatly increased, which is essential for a technology testing phase of a burning plasma experiment where fluence (duty cycle) is important.

First, more routine H-mode operation with broadened pressure profiles allows access to higher normalized beta and lower internal inductance. Second, the correction of a poloidal field coil induced error-field has largely eliminated locked tearing modes during normal operation and increased the maximum achievable beta. As a result of these improvements, peak P values have reached (not simultaneously) beta(T) = 35%, beta(N) = 6.4, = 4.5, beta(N)/l(i) = 10, and beta(P) = 1.4. High Pp operation with reduced tearing activity has allowed a doubling of discharge pulse-length to just over 1 s with sustained periods of beta(N) approximate to 6 above the ideal no-wall limit and near the with-wall limit.

Novel technical issues for such a system include disruption of the mercury jet by the proton beam and distortion of the jet on entering the solenoid, as well as more conventional issues of materials lifetime and handling of activated materials in an intense radiation environment. As part of the R&D program of the Neutrino Factory and Muon Collider Collaboration, an R&D effort related to targetry is being performed within the context of experiment E951 at Brookhaven National Laboratory, first results of which are reported here.

The large transverse and longitudinal admittances which must be designed into the system and the rapidity with which acceleration must take place because of muon decay preclude the use of conventional synchrotron design. The current baseline is a recirculating linac (RLA) in the shape of a racetrack with separate fixed-field arcs for each acceleration turn. However, RLAs have proved costly and are a potential bottleneck, at least with respect to the storage ring. Therefore, another approach, the fixed-field alternating gradient (FFAG) accelerator, is being actively pursued. This paper discusses the FFAG option and progress. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

In the presented scenario, acceleration starts after ionization cooling at 2 10 MeV/c and proceeds to 20 GeV, where the beam is injected into a neutrino factory storage ring. The key technical issues are addressed, such as the choice of acceleration technology (superconducting versus normal conducting) and the choice of RF frequency, and finally, implementation of the overall acceleration scheme: capture, acceleration, transport and preservation of large phase space of fast decaying species. Beam transport issues for large-momentum-spread beams are accommodated by appropriate lattice design choices. The proposed arc optics is further optimized with a sextupole correction to suppress chromatic effects contributing to emittance dilution. The presented proof-of-principle design of the arc optics with horizontal separation of multipass beams is extended for all passes. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

In muon ionization cooling, an LH2 absorber is required to have a high cooling power greater than 100 W to cool heat deposited by muons passing through. That heat in LH2 can be removed at either external or internal heat exchangers, which are cooled by cold helium gas. As one of the internal heat exchanger types, a convection-type absorber is proposed. In the convectiontype absorber, heat is taken away by the convection of LH2 in the absorber. The heat exchanger efficiency for the convection-type absorber is calculated. A possible design is presented. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. C1 KEK, Tsukuba, Ibaraki, Japan.

In this paper, using the moment-equation approach, we present a linear theory of ionization cooling dynamics in 6D phase space in a quadrupole focusing channel. A simple set of differential equations that governs the evolution of both the transverse and longitudinal emittances is derived, and closed-form solutions are given. Two new significant heating processes have been identified. This theory is analogous to the standard linear theory in electron storage rings. Multiple scattering integrals and energy straggling integrals, quantities like the synchrotron radiation integrals, are introduced to specify the cooling process and the equilibrium emittances in a periodic cooling channel.

The multiple scale simulation methods are presented in this paper, and in particular, an application on SiC is discussed in detail. Density functional theory (DFT) has been employed to determine defect energetics and the most favorable interstitial configurations in SiC. Based on DFT calculations, a new empirical potential has been developed in order to carry out large-scale simulations of microstructural evolution. Multimillion atom systems (up to 6 million) have been used to study defect production, defect clustering, multiple ion-solid interactions and structural evolution in SiC. The defect-stimulated growth and coalescence of clusters represents an important mechanism for irradiation-induced crystalline-to-amorphous transformation. The relative disordering and swelling behavior, as well as high-resolution transmission electron microscopy image simulations, based on molecular dynamics results, provide atomic-level interpretations of experimentally observed features in SiC.

By using zirconia (ZrO2) as an example, we show that at the smallest particle sizes, radiation damage effects can be strongly enhanced, and that under certain conditions, materials that are generally considered to be radiation resistant can become susceptible to irradiation-induced amorphization. Bulk zirconia has previously been irradiated to 680 dpa with no evidence of amorphization; however, we find that nanocrystalline zirconia can be amorphized at a dose as low as 0.9 dpa due, in part, to the energetics of the increased surface-to-volume ratio. These results have implications for the design of nanocomposite materials for use in space vehicles and in other high-radiation environments. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

This approach leads to the formation of nanocomposites with several attractive characteristics for potential applications in magnetic data storage media. A number of problems must be addressed before such applications can be realized in practice, however. One difficulty lies in the exercise of sufficiently fine control over the magnetic and microstructural properties of interest. Here, we show that Co nanocrystals produced by the ion implantation of Al2O3 can be formed either as spheroidal or well faceted single-crystal precipitates, depending on the synthesis conditions. Subsequent ion irradiation of the nanoparticles can alter the microstructure and internal chemistry of the particles as well as that of the host matrix, thereby providing a means of increasing the coercive field of the Co nanoparticles by almost two orders of magnitude.

For low fluences both Ti and Co ions are fully incorporated in Al lattice sites and remain stable up to annealing temperatures of 1000 degreesC. For fluences of 5 x 10(16) cm(-2) the implanted region becomes completely disordered (amorphous) for samples implanted with Ti while for Co the same condition is achieved only for higher fluences (2 x 10(16) Co+/cm(2)). The recovery of the implantation damage is almost complete after annealing at 1000 degreesC in either oxidizing or reducing atmospheres for fluences below 5 x 10(16) cm(-2). For higher fluences annealing in a reducing ambient promotes the precipitation of crystalline metallic Co and Ti particles, as revealed by TEM and RBS. These precipitates retard the damage recovery. The presence of oxygen during annealing leads to the formation of mixed Co and Al oxides through the entire implanted region. Annealing at 1000 degreesC promotes the formation of a spinel phase (Al2CoO4) and the blue or green coloration of sapphire, depending on the Co fluence. Moreover, narrow red emission lines were observed. For Ti the oxides concentrate at the surface and optical absorption measurements show the presence of a broad absorption band centered at 325 nm. This band is absent in the samples annealed in a reducing atmosphere. Photoluminescence measurements reveal the presence of an emission band centered near 840 nm. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

High-resolution transmission electron microscopy shows, when observed from (11(2) over bar 0) zone axis, that these dislocations lie at the interface about 7.0 nm apart. Molecular-dynamics simulations were performed in order to understand the formation of misfit dislocations and the interface structural features in Fe2O3/Al2O3 system. It is found that the misfit dislocations are mainly formed in Al2O3 substrates with Burger's vector of 1/3 (11(2) over bar 0), and terminated at the interfaces, in consistent with experiments observed previously. These dislocations can dissociate into two partial dislocations with Burger's vectors of 1/3(10(1) over bar 0) and 1/3(01(1) over bar 0) by forming stacking faults on (0 0 0 1) planes. The core structures of the misfit dislocations in semicoherent interfaces are analyzed in detail, and the misfit dislocations have narrow cores in the plane of the interfaces.

In particular, Polman and co-workers have shown that 4 MeV xenon ions cause substantial changes in thin films and microspheres of fused silica. For example, 2 mum wide trenches in thin films can be partially closed and microspheres substantially distorted. In our study, we investigate implantation into bulk silica and the subsequent response to high intensity ultra violet light. Specifically, we compare the damage threshold of fused silica to intense ultra violet light at 355 nm before and after room temperature ion bombardment and find little change despite clear alteration of the stress-state in the glass. We have also performed molecular dynamics simulations in order to understand the underlying effects that lead to obscuration of optics under laser and ion irradiation. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

In-situ 3.0 MeV He(+) Rutherford backscattering spectrometry along the (100)-axial channeling direction (RBS/C) has been applied to study the damage states ranging from small defect concentrations to a fully amorphous state. Results show that the crystal can be readily amorphized under the irradiation conditions. Room-temperature recovery of the defects produced at 150 K has been observed. while the defects produced at 300 K are thermally stable at room temperature. Results also indicate that the RBS/C analysis used in this study induced negligible damage in the near-surface regime. In addition, irradiation at and below room temperature using He(+) and C(3+) ions leads to surface exfoliation at the corresponding damage peaks. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Additional irradiation for the He+-irradiated specimen was carried out near room temperature using 50 MeV I10+ ions to similar to0.1 ions/nm(2). In situ isothermal annealing for 6H-SiC irradiated at 500 K to 2.0 Au2+/nm(2) was also conducted up to 90 min at the irradiation temperature. The lattice disorder in the irradiated samples has been determined using either 2.0 MeV He+ or 0.94 MeV D+ channeling analysis along the (0001) axis. Results show that there is a substantial diffusion of the Si defects into a greater depth during the Au2+ irradiation at 500 and 550 K. Complete amorphization at 550 K does not occur up to a maximum fluence of 15 Au2+/nm(2) in this study. Significant thermal recovery of the Si defects produced at 150 K was not observed during the subsequent thermal annealing at 500 K. Following the I10+ irradiation in the He+-irradiated specimen near room temperature, remarkable recrystallization at the amorphous-crystalline interfaces around the damage profile is observed.

Density functional theory calculations and molecular dynamics simulations have been used to determine stable defect configurations, defect production, and cascade-overlap effects. Defect configurations and damage accumulation have been determined experimentally by ion-channeling methods. Ion-solid interactions in SiC primarily produce interstitials, vacancies, antisite defects, and small defect clusters directly during the collision cascade. The accumulation of isolated point defects and defect clusters dominate damage accumulation processes at low doses. The growth and coalescence of defect clusters at higher doses lead to amorphization and swelling that exceeds 8%. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The Laplace pressure of a faceted particle is calculated by equating the work expended by increasing the anisotropic surface energy with the work done by expanding the particle volume. Although the value of gamma(200)/gamma(111) for the Xe/Al interfaces is not known precisely, it is found that the pressure change with shape variation is sufficiently large even for minimum anisotropy to quantitatively account for observed differences in the state of Xe precipitates having the same volume, but different shapes, in Al.

At enough high temperature, Brownian type motion of helium bubbles in the matrix and their easy motion along the edge dislocation are observed. At low temperatures where bubbles are thermally immobile, it is found that intermittent motion of the bubble is induced along interstitial type dislocation loops that are growing or shrinking under the irradiation. Possible mechanisms for the intermittent motion under the irradiation are discussed. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. C1 Shimane Univ, Dept Mat Sci, Matsue, Shimane 6908504, Japan.

The Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS)/channeling data obtained after implantation shows that damage was produced throughout the entire range of the implanted ions. Optical absorption measurements indicate that after implantation the most intense band occurs at approximate to5.0 eV, which has been associated with anion vacancies. After annealing at 450 K the intensity of the oxygen-vacancy band decreases monotonically with temperature and completely disappears at 950 K. A broad extinction band centered at approximate to2.14 eV associated with lithium precipitates emerges gradually and anneals out at 1250 K. RBS/channeling shows that recovery of the implantation damage is completed after annealing the oxidized samples at 1250 K. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Samples were irradiated at temperatures of 170, 300 and 350 K with ion fluences ranging from 0.05 to 0.60 Au2+/nm(2). The in situ RBS/C analysis indicates that the relative disorder in both Sr and Ti sublattices shows a strong sigmoidal dependence on ion dose. After an ion fluence of 0.30 Au2+/nm(2) at 170 K, the buried region at the damage peak (similar to60 nm) becomes fully amorphous, which corresponds to a dose of similar to0.39 dpa. For irradiation at 300 and 350 K, ion fluences of 0.40 Au2+/nm(2) (similar to0.52 dpa) and 0.45 Au2+/nm(2) (similar to0.59 dpa) are necessary to achieve an amorphous state at the damage peak, respectively.

Typically, the surface damage has the shape of a crater, similar to those produced by meteorite impacts. The crater shapes are, however, often highly asymmetric and can show extended adatom ridges extending far from the crater well. Using molecular dynamics simulations we show how such exotic atom arrangements are produced. We describe atomic bridges over a crater and illustrate a slingshot-like effect which can propel atom clusters far from an impact position to produce isolated adatom islands.

SEM micrographs reveal self-organized structures with straight open pores, 50-150 nm in diameter, extending completely through the mask. As reported previously, the pore diameter and spacing depend critically upon the anodization parameters, e.g. type of acid and its molality, the applied voltage and the solution temperature. Ion-milling procedures were developed for opening the bottoms of the anodized pores. These masks appear quite robust during exposure to ion beams of I MeV He, Ne and Kr. The steps necessary to fabricate the implantation masks, including opening the pores, are described. Measurements are reported of the angular dependence of the transmitted ion current; these results are consistent with the physical dimensions of the opened pores. TEM images of an implanted array are also shown. (C) 2003 Published by Elsevier Science B.V. C1 Argonne Natl Lab, Div Mat Sci, Argonne, IL 60439 USA.

Based on the biological structure of the plant cell wall, a physical model is proposed which assumes that the wall is composed of randomly orientated layers of cylindrical microfibrils made from cellulose molecules of C6H12O6. With this model, we have determined numerical factors for ion implantation in the plant cell wall to correct values calculated from conventional ion implantation programs. Using these correction factors, it is possible to apply common ion implantation programs to estimate the ion penetration depth in the cell for bioengineering purposes. These estimates are compared with measured data from experiments and good agreement is achieved. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

In this study amorphous silicon nitride and silicon carbonitride films were deposited on glass, fused silica, and carbon substrates by the plasma immersion ion processing technique. Gas pressure during the deposition was kept around 0.13 Pa (1 mTorr) and SiH4, N-2, Ar and C2H2 gas mixtures were used. Film hardness, composition and UV-visible optical absorption were characterized using nanoindentation, ion beam analysis techniques, and UV-visible spectroscopy, respectively. The films exhibit high transparency in the visible and near UV regions. Addition of the carbon to the films causes decrease in the density of the films, as well as decrease in hardness and transparency. These results suggest that in the low energy regime of PIIP the deposition of hard carbon composites with nitrogen and silicon does not take place. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The impact of single ions causes ejection of nanometer-sized particles of gold at the same rate as the rate of cratering leading to the conclusion that the two processes are coupled. The sputtering yield for cluster irradiation of Au exhibits a near cosine dependence on the ejection angle while the amount of Au in visible nanoparticles varies as the cube of the ejection angle.

By redistribution we mean that the final hydrogen distribution differs from the distribution of a control sample, and is attributed to sample preparation. Samples were prepared with a single boron pre-implantation, with projected range either shallower or deeper with respect to the projected range of a subsequent elevated-temperature hydrogen implantation. For shallower boron, the hydrogen redistribution was a wholesale shift in the entire distribution toward the surface, whereas for deeper boron, partial redistribution of end-of-range hydrogen toward the bulk was observed. Self-implantation experiments show that the wholesale hydrogen redistribution is not due solely to boron pre-implantation damage to the silicon lattice, but is driven by chemical effects attributed to the presence of boron.

The electron intensities of halo patterns recorded on imaging plates were digitized quantitatively to extract reduced interference functions. We demonstrated the relationship between maximum scattering vector (Q(max)) measured in scattering experiments and the resolution of the corresponding pair-distribution function by changing Q(max) values from 160 to 230 nm(-1). The results revealed that the C-C peak becomes broadened and eventually a shoulder as the value becomes shorter, indicating that Q(max) values of <160 nm(-1) measured in previous studies are not enough to detect C-C homonuclear bonds in a-SiC. We are the first to reveal the existence of C-C and Si-Si homonuclear bonds in a-SiC using a diffraction technique. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Single crystals of 6H-SiC with [0 0 0 1] orientation were implanted with 180 keV nitrogen ions at ambient temperature to a fluence of 5 x 10(17) N+/cm(2), followed by thermally annealing at 1500 degreesC for 30 min. A fully amorphous layer was formed at the topmost layer in the as-implanted sample. A part of the amorphous phase transformed into crystalline SiC after annealing. Radial distribution functions extracted via nano-beam electron diffraction patterns clearly showed that atomistic structures of the ion-beam-induced amorphous phase are different from those of the remaining amorphous phase in the annealed sample: a-SiCxNy possesses an intermediate bond length between Si-C and Si-N, while Si-N and Si-C bonds become more pronounced in the amorphous layer of the annealed specimen.

The accumulation of disorder on the Ga sublattice has been investigated based on He+ Rutherford backscattering analysis along the (0 0 0 1)-axial channeling direction. The degree of disorder in the O+ irradiated GaN increases at low doses and saturates above 10 displacements per atom (dpa). The microstructures of two O+-irradiated specimens are characterized using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Similar planar defect structures at the saturated disorder level are observed for as-irradiated and thermally annealed GaN. The growth and annihilation of these defects during ion irradiation and thermal annealing are believed to contribute to the saturation and stability of defect concentrations.

Although it is well known that the presence of a halide such as Cl- is necessary for pit initiation, the precise role the Cl- plays in the oxide breakdown is not understood. Cl and Ar ion implantation were used to modify air passivated Al using the implantation profile to provide a variation in Cl concentration with depth, in conjunction with varying implant fluences. After irradiation, samples were exposed to a corrosive environment and the electrochemical behavior was characterized as a function of impurity level. The pitting potential varied in an inverse relationship with the Cl concentration when measured in Cl-containing solutions. In solutions without Cl it was estimated that a concentration on the order of 0.5 at.% was required to initiate pitting. Implanting the inert ion of Ar did not enhance pitting.

The measurements allowed us to accurately infer a magnetization radius. The inferred radius exceeds the single particle estimate by about 10% and the nuclear charge radius by about 7%. Because two isotopes were measured, we were able to observe for the first time the interaction between the finite size of the nuclear magnetization distribution and the finite size of the charge distribution on the hyperfine anomaly. The measured isotope difference of 30.59 +/- 0.38 meV differs from the value of 31.04 +/- 0.01 meV inferred from neutral thallium using a point magnetic dipole approximation, but is in good agreement with the difference of 30.71 +/- 0.16 meV calculated by using an extended magnetic dipole.

Instr. and Meth. A 444 (2000) 156]. Our attention was focused especially on the Ne IX He-like triplet to check electron density diagnostics through the intercombination/forbidden line ratio. We have investigated possible effects of the ion dynamics on the plasma emission line intensities, looking at the dependence of the count-rate and the charge state distribution on the electron beam energy and current. The temperature and spatial distribution of the neon ions, and hence the overlap between the electron beam and the ion cloud, depend on the electron beam operating parameters. The overlap affects the average electron density seen by the ions, and in turn the measured line ratio. These results underscore the value of future improved studies of the trapped ion dynamics, both for understanding the EBIT performance and for allowing experimenters to take full advantage of its potential for astrophysical plasma diagnostics.

This paper reports on a novel use of detailed balance and the comparison of experimental results obtained by two very distinct techniques to determine both the metastable fraction of an ion beam and partial Sc3+ PR cross sections and partial Sc2+ PI cross sections for the ground state and for two metastable states. The Sc2+ to Sc3+ system presents a unique opportunity to obtain comprehensive state-selective information by combining results from PR and PI experiments. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

Absolute PI cross-sections were measured in the range 40.7-56.4 eV with an energy spread of 30 meV using a photon-ion merged beams arrangement at the Advanced Light Source (ALS). Detailed calculations based on the semi-relativistic Breit-Pauli R-matrix approach suggest a fraction of 40% of metastable ions in the primary beam of the experiment. Additional high resolution measurements have been carried out with an energy spread as low as 7.5 meV. The new data permit a sensitive test of theory with respect to the individual PI cross-section contributions originating from the different P-3(0.1.2) fine-structure components of the initial triplet states.

After a brief overview over the scenario of neutralization and relaxation, we focus on one particularly difficult problem: reliable estimates for two-electron transition rates for highly charged ions interacting with insulator surfaces. Three different processes are considered: intra-atomic Auger, Auger capture and Auger deexcitation. They represent input for simulations of neutralization of HCIs near surfaces. Simple universal estimates as functions of the distance to the surface, as well as initial and final state populations are presented which are believed to provide reasonable order of magnitude estimates.

Scattered charge-state distributions were measured as a function of the polar incidence angle and the target azimuthal orientation. Preliminary results indicate that "quasi-binary" collisions associated with scattering from a Rb or I site can be clearly distinguished for each scattered final charge state. The charge-state distribution and the relative Rb/I binary collision yields for scattered ions are found to depend on both the beam incidence angle and the target azimuthal orientation. The preliminary RbI(l 00) results are discussed in the context of earlier experimental and theoretical studies of MCI scattering on a Au(I 10) surface. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

The resonance profiles for X-ray emission consisting of two peaks for j = 1/2 and j = 3/2 are characterized by suppression of the j = 1/2 peak. The degeneracy of the n = 2 states are removed by Stark effect due to the static crystal field. The RCE probability of these Stark splitted substates differs, reflecting the polarization of the oscillating crystal field. However, the associated alignment was not clearly observed. It is explained by the fact that both polarization of the oscillating crystal field and the wave functions of Stark-mixed n = 2 states depend on the distance from the channel center, and the X-ray emission is preferred in a channel center in a crystal.

Our formalism gives a systematic path from Hamiltonians constructed by first principles to a Monte Carlo algorithm. Our Monte Carlo calculation can treat the build-up and time evolution of coherences. We employ a reduced density matrix approach in which the total system is divided into a system of interest and its environment. An equation of motion for the reduced density matrix is written in the Lindblad form using an additional approximation to the Born-Markov approximation. The Lindblad form allows the solution of this multi-state problem in terms of Monte Carlo sampling of quantum trajectories. The Monte Carlo method is advantageous in terms of computer storage compared to direct solutions of the equation of motion. We apply our method to discuss coherence properties of the internal state of a Kr35+ ion subject to spontaneous radiative decay. Simulations exhibit clear signatures of coherent transitions.

The first RIB experiments at the HRIBF were completed at the end of 1998 using F-17 beams. Since then other proton-rich ion beams have been developed and a large number of neutron-rich ion beams are now available.

Although the present facility has contributed much to the progress in the field of nuclear structure physics, major improvements are desirable in the future. The characteristics of the proposed next-generation facility at GSI, the Super-FRS, will be presented and compared to other projects. The Super-FRS is a large-acceptance superconducting fragment separator followed by different experimental branches including a combination with a new storage-cooler ring system. This system consists of a collector ring (CR) and a new experimental storage ring (NESR), which allow precision mass and lifetime measurements as well as in-ring reaction studies. The NESR can be operated in combination with an electron ring to measure electron scattering with exotic nuclei. This electron heavy-ion collider will open up new fields for nuclear structure research. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The ion optics of the large acceptance, high-resolution fragment separators that follow the production target require primary beam spot widths of I mm. To cope with the resulting high power densities, windowless liquid lithium targets are being developed. The present designs build on existing experience with liquid lithium and liquid sodium systems that have been used for fusion and fission applications. However, no completely windowless systems have been developed or tested to date. For the beam power indicated above (400 kW), the flow requirements are up to about 20 m/s and 10 Us linear and volume flow rates, respectively. The required target thickness is 1-1.5 g/cm(2) (2-3 cm. lithium thickness). At this time a prototype windowless system with a lithium thickness of 1-2 cm is under construction. The prototype will be operated initially without beam in the Argonne liquid lithium test facility. The details of the design of the prototype and a progress report on its construction and testing will be presented. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

This target will use beryllium windows with flowing lithium. The lithium serves as a part of the target as well as the coolant. Up to I kW of beam power is dissipated in the target and is carried away by the recirculating liquid lithium loop. It is designed for high power beams in the mass range from oxygen to calcium. Tapered beryllium windows combined with a uniform thickness lithium channel gives an overall target thickness ranging from 0.7 to 3 g/cm(2), which is adjusted by moving the target vertically. The target system design is complete and is described in this paper. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved. C1 Argonne Natl Lab, Div Phys, Argonne, IL 60439 USA.

Apart from suppressing isobaric interferences and contributing to isotopic selectivity already in the ionization process, resonant optical excitation and ionization with laser light ensures high overall efficiency and good temporal and spatial controls of the ions delivered to mass spectrometric applications. In the field of rare isotope research laser resonance ionization has nowadays become one of the key techniques, including similarly the determination of long-lived or stable ultra-trace isotopes with minuscule abundance in analytics as well as the online production and subsequent investigations of short-lived radioisotopes. The paper will describe the present status of atomic resonance ionization and focus on some technical and methodological developments. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The latter requires the RIB linac to accept at injection ions in the 1+ charge state. A concept for such a post accelerator suitable for ions up to mass 132 has been previously described [1]. This paper presents a modified concept which extends the mass range to uranium. A high resolution separator for purifying beams at the isobaric level precedes the RIB linac. The mass filtering process will provide high purity beams while preserving transmission. For most cases a resolution of about m/Deltam = 20000 is adequate at mass A = 100 to obtain a separation between isobars of mass excess difference of 5 MeV. The design for a device capable of purifying beams at the isobaric level includes calculations up to fifth order. The RIB linac will utilize existing superconducting heavy-ion linac technology for all but a small portion of the accelerator system. The exceptional piece, a very-low-charge-state injector section needed for just the first few NIV of the RIB accelerator, consists of a pre-buncher followed by several sections of cw, normally-conducting RFQ. Two stages of charge stripping are provided: helium gas stripping at energies of a few keV/u, and additional foil stripping at similar to680 keV/u for the heavier ions. In extending the mass range to uranium, however, for best efficiency the helium gas stripping must be performed at different energies for different mass ions. We present numerical simulations of the beam dynamics of a design for the complete RIB linac which provides for several stripping options and uses cost-effective solenoid focusing elements in the drift-tube linac.

Light radioactive isotopes are produced at a 10 MeV proton medical cyclotron, transported 3 50 m via a high-speed gas transport capillary, cryogenically separated, and injected into the 88-Inch Cyclotron's ion source. The first radioactive beam successfully accelerated was carbon-11 and beams of intensity more than 10(8) ions/s have been utilized for experiments. Development of oxygen-14 as the second BEARS beam presented considerable technical challenges, both due to its short half-life of 71 s and the radiation chemistry of oxygen in the target. The usual techniques developed for medical uses of oxygen-15 involve the addition of significant amounts of carrier oxygen, something that would overload the ion source. As a solution, oxygen-14 is produced as water in a carrier-free form, and is chemically converted in two steps to carbon dioxide, a form readily usable by the BEARS. This system has been built and is operational, and initial tests of accelerating an oxygen-14 beam have been performed. Published by Elsevier Science B.V.

Modifications to the injection system of the CPT have been implemented in recent months, the purpose being to more efficiently collect and transfer weakly-produced reaction products from the target to the Penning trap. These include a magnetic triplet situated after the target chamber to increase the acceptance of the Enge spectrograph, a velocity filter to more effectively separate the beam from the reaction products and the replacement of the Paul trap with a linear trap resulting in more efficient capture and accumulation of ions from the ion cooler. This paper will discuss these recent modifications and how they have increased our ability in making mass measurements on isotopes of low abundance, including those from a Cf-252 fission source.

This removes the limitation present in standard ISOL technique for species that are difficult to extract from the target/ion source assembly. This approach has been implemented at Argonne since 1998 to inject fusion-evaporation products in an ion trap system. Via a series of improvements since then, we now reach efficiencies for these devices of close to 50% with delay times below 10 ms. In preparation for the RIA project, a larger device for stopping fragmentation products is in preparation. The basic principles behind these devices together with results obtained and experience gained operating these devices will be presented. Preparation for a test of the large gas cell at the full RIA energy at GSI will also be presented. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

Recently, however, new systems based on digital signal processing concepts have been developed. For example, one specific design, the Digital Gamma Finder (DGF-4C), has been used extensively for particle- and gamma-spectroscopy of nuclei far from stability. Using the DGF-4C, a variety of data acquisition systems have been implemented and used for measurements with semiconductor and scintillator detectors at recoil separators like the RMS at ORNL, the FRS at GSI and LISE at GANIL. Some novel features and unique advantages, such as trigger-less operation and pulse shape recording, are discussed in the context of selected studies. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

Alkali-metal beams are longitudinally polarized by optical pumping of a fast atomic beam, which is created by charge exchange of the incident ion beam in a Na vapour cell. At ISAC, the beam is then reionized in a He gas target and directed to the experiments. To date, 30 keV beams of Li-8 and Li-9 have been polarized, and Li-11 and Na-20 beams are scheduled immediately following this conference. The polarization of the Li-8 beam, using a dual frequency, standing wave Ti:sapphire laser, is up to similar to80%. High polarization is achieved by matching the laser bandwidth to the energy spread in the beam. The status of the facility is reported. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

RIA aims at producing intense beams of radioactive isotopes and providing them to experimental stations with energy variable from ion source energy to a few hundred MeV/u. To perform this task, RIA will use standard ISOL and fragmentation techniques together with novel approaches combining advantages of both techniques to obtain high quality beams of the produced isotopes at all energy regimes. RIA will use these approaches in combination with a novel 400 kW superconducting heavy-ion driver linac to produce the activity and a very efficient post-acceleration scheme based on low-frequency RFQs injecting an ATLAS-like superconducting linac to obtain maximum intensity and excellent beam quality at the experimental stations. The development of the RIA concept required new ideas and significant technical advances. The technical issues with this versatile high-power facility and their present solutions will be presented together with the present status of the R&D efforts and the performance obtained with various prototypes that have been completed.

Using an improved constrained curve fitting technique, we find that the ground state pseudoscalar mass versus bare quark mass behavior is well controlled with small statistical errors; this permits a reliable fit of the quenched chiral log effects, a determination of the chiral log parameter (delta = 0.26(3)), and an estimate of the renormalized mass of the light quark (m(MS)(mu = 2 GeV) = 3.7(3) MeV).

The study of the chiral limit is facilitated by the pole-shifting ansatz of the modified quenched approximation. Pseudoscalar masses and decay constants axe determined as a function of quark mass and quenched chiral log effects are estimated. A study of the flavor singlet eta' hairpin diagram yields a precise determination of the eta' mass insertion. The corresponding value of the quenched chiral log parameter delta is compared with the observed QCL effects. Removal of QCL effects from the scalar propagator allows a determination of the mass of the lowest lying isovector scalar q (q) over bar meson.

By maintaining chiral symmetry and using the Ward-Takahashi (WT) identity, one has Z(A) = Z(V) and the bare lattice calculation yields the physical value without explicit renormalization. The DBW2 improved gauge action provides further enhancement of the symmetry and hence a more accurate WT identity at coarse lattice spacing. Taking advantage of these methods, we confirmed a significant volume dependence of the nucleon axial charge on (1.2fm)(3) and (2.4fm)(3) lattice volumes.

At some mu(I) = mu(c), QCD has a second order transition with mean-field critical exponents to a state where (I-3) is broken spontaneously by a charged pion condensate. Heating the system with mu(I) > mu(c) we find there is some temperature at which this condensate evaporates. This transition appears to be second order and mean-field at lower mu(I) values, and first order for mu(I) sufficiently large. We are determining the dependence of the finite temperature crossover T-c on mu(I) for mu(I) < mu(c). This is expected to be identical to T-c's dependence on quark-number chemical potential mu(q) for small mu(q). C1 Univ Illinois, Dept Phys, Urbana, IL 61801 USA.

Nonzero T and mu are studied on 12(3) x 6 lattices. For low T, increasing It takes the system through a line of second order phase transitions to a diquark condensed phase. Increasing T at high mu, the system passes through a line of first order transitions from the diquark phase to the quark-gluon plasma phase. C1 Univ Illinois, Dept Phys, Urbana, IL 61801 USA.

The resulting framework is used to demonstrate that the bulk of topological charge in QCD does not appear in the form of unit quantized lumps. This means that the mixing of "would-be" zeromodes associated with such lumps is probably not the prevalent microscopic mechanism for spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in QCD. To characterize the coherent local behavior in topological charge density at low energy, we compute the charges contained in maximal coherent spheres enclosing non-overlapping peaks. We find a continuous distribution essentially ending at approximate to 0.5. Finally, we study, for the first time, the overlap-operator topological-charge- density-correlators and find consistency with non-positivity at nonzero physical distance. This represents a non-trivial check on the locality (in gauge paths) of the overlap Dirac operator for realistic gauge backgrounds. C1 Univ Kentucky, Dept Phys & Astron, Lexington, KY 40506 USA.

In particular, two angular finite element methods, and the modulated P-1-equivalent S-2 method, are analyzed It is found that these techniques give varying levels of ray-effect mitigation on certain traditional test problems, but all of them yield discrete-ray solutions for a line source in a void In general, it is shown that any transport angular discretization technique that results in a hyperbolic approximation for the directional gradient operator will yield a discrete-ray solution for a line source in a void Since the directional gradient operator is in fact hyperbolic, it is not surprising that many discretizations of the operator retain this property. For instance, our results suggest that both continuous and discontinuous angular finite element methods produce hyperbolic approximations. Our main conclusion is that the effectiveness of any hyperbolic ray-effect mitigation technique will necessarily be highly problem dependent. In particular, such techniques must fail in problems that have the most severe ray effects, i.e., those that are "similar" to a line source in a void.

The finite subelement trial functions allow for explicit geometry representations within each node, thus eliminating the need for nodal homogenization. The method is implemented within the Argonne National Laboratory code VARIANT and applied to two-dimensional multigroup problems. Eigenvalue and pin-power results are presented for a four-assembly Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development/Nuclear Energy Agency benchmark problem containing enriched UO2 and mixed oxide fuel pins. Our seven-group model combines spherical or simplified spherical harmonic approximations in angle with isoparametric linear or quadratic subelement basis functions, thus eliminating the need for fuel-coolant homogenization. Comparisons with reference seven-group Monte Carlo solutions indicate that in the absence of pin-cell homogenization, high-order angular approximations are required to obtain accurate eigenvalues, while the results are substantially less sensitive to the refinement of the finite subelement grids.

The emission is detected in the direction of the fundamental near-infrared beam. Time- and frequency-resolved measurements at room temperature and 77 K indicate that the emission is largely coherent light characteristic of second harmonic generation (SHG). An average conversion efficiency of similar to10(-10) is obtained for a 2 mm thick sample. The observed SHG can originate in the individual noncentrosymmetric nanocrystals, leading to a bulk-like contribution, and at the nanocrystal-glass interface, leading to a surface contribution. The bulk-like conversion efficiency is estimated using previously reported values of coherence length (5 mum) and bulk nonlinear susceptibility. This bulk-like conversion efficiency estimate is found to be smaller than the measured value, suggesting a more prominent surface contribution. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

An important requirement for application of the physical models is detailed information on atmospheric humidity and particles. Here, a method is described for making atmospheric corrections without the need for detailed atmospheric observations. A simplified procedure for making atmospheric corrections to reflectances observed from satellites is developed by using the unique spectral signature of water pixels in satellite images. A radiative transfer model is applied to a variety of clear-sky conditions to generate functional relationships between the radiation due to the atmospheric scattering above water bodies and atmospheric radiative properties. Test cases indicate that the resulting estimates Of surface reflectances and NDVI agree well with estimates made using a radiative transfer model applied independently and with measurements made at the surface.

The subsequent expansion causes a pressure drop and the fluid then enters a regime where its equation of state in P-V space becomes concave towards the origin. This is the signal for an expansion shock to occur in a non-ideal fluid, accompanied by absorption of the heat of Vaporization. An analytic calculation provides the shape and location of this anti-detonation front using Whitham's method. Dependence of the shape of the front on various operating conditions was calculated for the particular case of supercritical carbon dioxide. Our results provide an insight into the initiation of the rapid expansion of supercritical solutions, a process which is used in many manufacturing technologies. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

On cooling through T-c,T-a, the sample magnetization and frequency shift show substantial supercooling of the A-like phase, with discontinuous changes to B-like behavior seen at about 0.64T(c,b) (bulk) for all samples. On warming, both the frequency shift and magnetization change continuously as the sample enters an ESP state. This suggests that this phase transition is broadened by pinning of the A-B interface on density fluctuations in the aerogel, even very close to T-c,T-a. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

So far it was experimentally studied in "collinear" geometries, where it is difficult to predict whether magnetization will coherently rotate or spin-waves will be generated. Here we propose an easy modification of existing experiment in which the spin-polarization of incoming current will no longer be collinear with magnetization and recalculate the switching behavior of the device. We expect that a better agreement with the magnetization rotation theory will be achieved.

Pronounced matching effects in the magnetization are seen in fields up to 9 kOe. Flux pinning in the patterned samples is enhanced by two orders of magnitude as compared to unpatterned reference samples in applied fields exceeding 5 kOe. The matching effects are a dominant contribution to vortex pinning at temperatures as low as 4.2 K due to the nano-scale spacing of the holes. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

This proves the existence of finite neutrino masses. In order to fix their absolute values, sensitive experiments on Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay (a rare nuclear process) must be carried on. The experiment here described, named Cryogenic's Underground Observatory for Rare Events (CUORE), can extend the neutrino mass sensitivity down to 30 meV. CUORE will consist of a large, closely packed, high-granularity array of 1000 tellurite (TeO2) IOW-temperature calorimeters, operated at 10 mK and with a total mass of 800 kg.

In early 2000, CDMS set the most competitive exclusion limit for scalar-interaction WIMPs in the Stanford Underground Facility (SUF). A new search (CDMS II) is now commencing with several improvements: a deep-site facility in the Soudan mine, Minnesota; and the detector technology has been further improved to aid in the rejection of surface-electron (beta) events. A new generation of detectors, sensitive to the initial athermal phonon flux from a particle event, have been in operation for the past year at Stanford's shallow site and are ready for installation at the deep site.

The normal behaviour is a single crossover between the well-known critical power law m(s) similar to (T-c - T)(beta) and one analytical dependence according to m(s =) 1 - c x T-epsilon which holds for all lower temperatures. A more complicated situation results if strength or anisotropy of the exchange interactions change strongly as a function of temperature. This can induce further crossover events with discrete changes either of the coefficient c or of the exponent epsilon. Except for the temperatures in the vicinity of the crossover the critical power law and one (or more) empirical T-epsilon functions with definite exponents epsilon give an excellent description of the whole experimental m(s)(T) dependence.

The superconducting-state electron contribution is very different from that of other superconductors, but the general features are consistent with predictions for a two-gap superconductor, and a two-gap model based on BCS thermodynamics can quantitatively represent it. Parameters characterizing the gaps are in agreement with theoretical calculations. An unusually strong magnetic field dependence of the temperature-proportional term in the electron contribution to the vortex-state specific heat is another manifestation of the two gaps.
