AB Small military units operate under stressful conditions with limited resources. A lightweight mobile surveillance system could reduce the effort to conduct sentry duties, and could help prevent ambushes or other types of attacks. We explore the use of built-in sensors and networking abilities of modern "smartphones" to fill this gap. Current smartphones use accelerometers to sense changes in orientation of the phone. This same capability can be used to detect vibrations in the ground produced by approaching footsteps or vehicles. We discuss the sensitivity of the phone, the filtering techniques, and the footstep signatures registered by the phone. We then discuss the possible deployment configurations of single and multiple sensors to create a sensor grid that can be networked together. Key concerns are ground noise, sensitivity of the phone, and distance between networked phones.

DE relativistic jets
ID ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI
AB The overall classification of X-ray jets has clung to that prevalent in the radio: FRI vs. FRII (including quasars). Indeed, the common perception is that X-ray emission from FRI's is synchrotron emission whereas that from FRII's may be IC/CMB and/or synchrotron. Now that we have a sizable collection of sources with detected X-ray emission from jets and hotspots, it seems that a more unbiased study of these objects could yield additional insights on jets and their X-ray emission. The current contribution is a first step in the process of analyzing all of the relevant parameters for each detected component for the sources collected in the XJET website. This initial effort involves measuring the ratio of X-ray to radio fluxes and evaluating correlations with other jet parameters. For single zone synchrotron X-ray emission, we anticipate that larger values of fx/fr should correlate inversely with the average magnetic field strength (if the acceleration process is limited by loss time equals acceleration time). Beamed IC/CMB X-rays should produce larger values of fx/fr for smaller values of the angle between the jet direction and the line of sight but will also be affected by the low frequency radio spectral index.

CONTINENTAL-SHELF; MONTEREY BAY; SEA-LEVEL; BOUNDARY-LAYER; WEST-COAST;

AB An extensive spatiotemporal surface currents data set from central California is used to examine in detail 2 extreme years in the California Current. The year 2006 is characterized by an extended period of calm winds during the critical early months of the upwelling season (April and May). This leads to little or no upwelling over this period, essentially delaying the onset of the upwelling season. The year 2007 is characterized by extremely strong alongshore wind stress during the first quarter of the year and during the early part of the upwelling season. This produced monthly mean alongshore current velocities over the midshelf for April 2007 in excess of 0.7 m s(-1), which has not been previously observed in this region for periods of more than a few days since the installation of the HF radar instruments in 2001. Both of these extremes appear to have had important consequences for the coastal ecosystem that have been documented elsewhere, including the collapse of parts of the trophic web (2006) and the presence of large quantities of water of deep origin over the continental shelf (2007). Understanding and describing circulation and transport patterns during these extremes is important in light of predictions from global climate change, which may cause these extreme conditions to occur more frequently.

AB A method is presented for extending any bond-order potential (BOP) to include charge transfer between atoms through a modification of the split-charge equilibration (SQE) formalism. Variable limits on the maximum allowed charge transfer between atomic pairs are defined by mapping bond order to an amount of shared charge in each bond. Charge transfer is interpreted as an asymmetry in how the shared charge is distributed between the atoms of the bond. Charge equilibration (QE) assesses the asymmetry of the shared charge, while the BOP converts this asymmetry to the actual amount of charge transferred. When applied to large molecules, this BOP/SQE method does not exhibit the unrealistic growth of charges that is often associated with QE models.

AB Observational data on aerosol-cloud-drizzle relationships in marine stratocumulus are presented from the second Marine Stratus/Stratocumulus Experiment (MASE-II) carried out in July 2007 over the eastern Pacific near Monterey, California. Observations, carried out in regions of essentially uniform meteorology with localized aerosol enhancements due to ship exhaust ("ship tracks''), demonstrate, in accord with those from numerous other field campaigns, that increased cloud drop number concentration N-c and decreased cloud top effective radius r(e) are associated with increased subcloud aerosol concentration. Modulation of drizzle by variations in aerosol levels is clearly evident. Variations of cloud base drizzle rate R-cb are found to be consistent with the proportionality, R-cb proportional to H-3/N-c, where H is cloud depth. Simultaneous aircraft and A-Train satellite observations are used to quantify the precipitation susceptibility of clouds to aerosol perturbations in the eastern Pacific region.

TI Absorption and scattering of 1.06 mu m laser radiation from oceanic
aerosols

DT Article
ID OPTICAL-CONSTANTS; SEA-WATER; PROPAGATION; REGION; LIGHT
AB The absorption and scattering of oceanic aerosols are characterized using low- and high-power lasers in the near IR (1.064 mu m). The imaginary part of the refractive index of sea salt inferred from low- power absorption measurements is 200 x less than the commonly accepted value from the literature. The measured absorption coefficients of natural and artificial saltwater are within 5% of the absorption of pure water (0.14 cm(-1)). High-power aerosol experiments are consistent with low- power liquid absorption measurements, which yield comparable absorption coefficients for pure water and saltwater. High-power illumination of test aerosols (CuSO4 center dot 5H(2)O) with an absorption coefficient alpha >= 0.19 cm(-1) and a dwell time of 100 ms results in a consistent reduction in scattering from the aerosol column. The high-powemr laser scattering measurements are in good agreement with the theory, which accounts for the absorption, heating, and vaporization of the water-based aerosols. The measured absorption of oceanic aerosols in the laboratory is much less than the literature values at 1.064 mu m and should result in reduced heating and thermal blooming in open ocean atmospheres.

AB In this work, we study joint observations of Hinode/EUV Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) and Solar and Heliospheric Observatory/Solar Ultraviolet Measurement of Emitted Radiation of Fe IX lines emitted by the same level of the high energy configuration 3s(2)3p(5)4p. The intensity ratios of these lines are dependent on atomic physics parameters only and not on the physical parameters of the emitting plasma, so that they are excellent tools to verify the relative intensity calibration of high-resolution spectrometers that work in the 170-200 angstrom and 700-850 angstrom wavelength ranges. We carry out extensive atomic physics calculations to improve the accuracy of the predicted intensity ratio, and compare the results with simultaneous EIS-SUMER observations of an off-disk quiet Sun region. We were able to identify two ultraviolet lines in the SUMER spectrum that are emitted by the same level that emits one bright line in the EIS wavelength range. Comparison between predicted and measured intensity ratios, wavelengths and energy separation of Fe IX levels confirms the identifications we make. Blending and calibration uncertainties are discussed. The results of this work are important for cross-calibrating EIS and SUMER, as well as future instrumentation.

OBSERVATIONS
AB We report on observations of TeV-selected active galactic nuclei (AGNs) made during the first 5.5 months of observations with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on-board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (Fermi). In total, 96 AGNs were selected for study, each being either (1) a source detected at TeV energies (28 sources) or (2) an object that has been studied with TeV instruments and for which an upper limit has been reported (68 objects). The Fermi observations show clear detections of 38 of these TeV-selected objects, of which 21 are joint GeV-TeV sources, and 29 were not in the third EGRET catalog. For each of the 38 Fermi-detected sources, spectra and light curves are presented. Most can be described with a power law of spectral index harder than 2.0, with a spectral break generally required to accommodate the TeV measurements. Based on an extrapolation of the Fermi spectrum, we identify sources, not previously detected at TeV energies, which are promising targets for TeV instruments. Evidence for systematic evolution of the gamma-ray spectrum with redshift is presented and discussed in the context of interaction with the extragalactic background light.

AB The Sun's polar fields are currently similar to 40% weaker than they were during the previous three sunspot minima. This weakening has been accompanied by a corresponding decrease in the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) strength, by a similar to 20% shrinkage in the polar coronal-hole areas, and by a reduction in the solar-wind mass flux over the poles. It has also been reflected in coronal streamer structure and the heliospheric current sheet, which only showed the expected flattening into the equatorial plane after sunspot numbers fell to unusually low values in mid-2008. From latitude-time plots of the photospheric field, it has long been apparent that the polar fields are formed through the transport of trailing-polarity flux from the sunspot latitudes to the poles. To address the question of why the polar fields are now so weak, we simulate the evolution of the photospheric field and radial IMF strength from 1965 to the present, employing a surface transport model that includes the effects of active region emergence, differential rotation, supergranular convection, and a poleward bulk flow. We find that the observed evolution can be reproduced if the amplitude of the surface meridional flow is varied by as little as 15% (between 14.5 and 17 m s(-1)), with the higher average speeds being required during the long cycles 20 and 23.

ID OPEN MAGNETIC-FIELD; SOLAR-WIND; SUN; BREAKOUT; MODELS; NULLS; FLUX
AB We investigate the effect of magnetic reconnection on the boundary between open and closed magnetic field in the solar corona. The magnetic topology for our numerical study consists of a global dipole that gives rise to polar coronal holes and an equatorial streamer belt, and a smaller active-region bipole embedded inside the closed-field streamer belt. The initially potential magnetic field is energized by a rotational motion at the photosphere that slowly twists the embedded-bipole flux. Due to the applied stress, the bipole field expands outward and reconnects with the surrounding closed flux, eventually tunneling through the streamer boundary and encountering the open flux of the coronal hole. The resulting interchange reconnection between closed and open field releases the magnetic twist and free energy trapped inside the bipole onto open field lines, where they freely escape into the heliosphere along with the entrained closed-field plasma. Thereafter, the bipole field relaxes and reconnects back down into the interior of the streamer belt. Our simulation shows that the detailed properties of magnetic reconnection can be crucial to the coronal magnetic topology, which implies that both potential-field source-surface and quasi-steady magnetohydrodynamic models may often be an inadequate description of the corona and solar wind. We discuss the implications of our results for understanding the dynamics of the boundary between open and closed field on the Sun and the origins of the slow wind.

AB We report the discovery with Fermi/LAT of gamma-ray emission from three radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies: PKS 1502+036 (z = 0.409), 1H 0323+342 (z = 0.061), and PKS 2004-447 (z = 0.24). In addition to PMN J0948+0022 (z = 0.585), the first source of this type to be detected in gamma rays, they may form an emerging new class of gamma-ray active galactic nuclei (AGNs). These findings can have strong implications on our knowledge about relativistic jets and the unified model of the AGN.

Emission at Intermediate Galactic Latitudes

ID EGRET OBSERVATIONS; SPECTRA; GALAXY
AB The diffuse galactic gamma-ray emission is produced by cosmic rays (CRs) interacting with the interstellar gas and radiation field. Measurements by the Energetic Gamma-Ray Experiment Telescope (EGRET) instrument on the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory indicated excess gamma-ray emission greater than or similar to 1 GeV relative to diffuse galactic gamma-ray emission models consistent with directly measured CR spectra (the so-called "EGRET GeV excess"). The Large Area Telescope (LAT) instrument on the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope has measured the diffuse gamma-ray emission with improved sensitivity and resolution compared to EGRET. We report on LAT measurements for energies 100 MeV to 10 GeV and galactic latitudes 10 degrees <|b|< 20 degrees. The LAT spectrum for this region of the sky is well reproduced by a diffuse galactic gamma-ray emission model that is consistent with local CR spectra and inconsistent with the EGRET GeV excess.

TI Azimuthal Charged-Particle Correlations and Possible Local Strong Parity
Violation
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

DT Article
ID HEAVY-ION COLLISIONS; NUCLEAR COLLISIONS; HOT QCD
AB Parity-odd domains, corresponding to nontrivial topological solutions of the QCD vacuum, might be created during relativistic heavy-ion collisions. These domains are predicted to lead to charge separation of quarks along the system's orbital momentum axis. We investigate a three-particle azimuthal correlator which is a P even observable, but directly sensitive to the charge separation effect. We report measurements of charged hadrons near center-of-mass rapidity with this observable in Au+Au and Cu+Cu collisions at s(NN)=200 GeV using the STAR detector. A signal consistent with several expectations from the theory is detected. We discuss possible contributions from other effects that are not related to parity violation.

AB We discuss the state-of-the-art performance of interband cascade lasers emitting in the 3-5 mu m spectral band. Broad-area devices with five active stages display pulsed threshold current densities as low as 400 A cm(-2) at room temperature. Auger decay rates are extracted from the analysis of threshold current densities and differential slope efficiencies of nearly 30 lasers, and found to be significantly lower than was anticipated based on prior information. New designs also produce ICLs with room-temperature internal losses as low as approximate to 6 cm(-1). The combination of these advances with improvements to the processing of narrow ridges has led to the fabrication of a 4.4-mu m-wide ridge emitting at 3.7 mu m that lased to 335 K in continuous mode. This is the highest continuous-wave (cw) operating temperature for any semiconductor laser in the 3.0-4.6 mu m spectral range. A 10-mu m-wide ridge with high-reflection and antireflection facet coatings produced up to 59 mW of cw power at 298 K, and displayed a maximum wall-plug efficiency of 3.4%.

AB Satellite-based precipitation estimates have great potential for a wide range of critical applications, but their error characteristics need to be examined and understood. In this study, six (6) high-resolution, satellite-based precipitation data sets are evaluated over the contiguous United States against a gauge-based product. An error decomposition scheme is devised to separate the errors into three independent components, hit bias, missed precipitation, and false precipitation, to better track the error sources associated with the satellite retrieval processes. Our analysis reveals the following. (1) The three components for each product are all substantial, with large spatial and temporal variations. (2) The amplitude of individual components sometimes is larger than that of the total errors. In such cases, the smaller total errors are resulting from the three components canceling one another. (3) All the products detected strong precipitation (>40 mm/d) well, but with various biases. They tend to overestimate in summer and underestimate in winter, by as much as 50% in either season, and they all miss a significant amount of light precipitation (<10 mm/d), up to 40%. (4) Hit bias and missed precipitation are the two leading error sources. In summer, positive hit bias, up to 50%, dominates the total errors for most products. (5) In winter, missed precipitation over mountainous regions and the northeast, presumably snowfall, poses a common challenge to all the data sets. On the basis of the findings, we recommend that future efforts focus on reducing hit bias, adding snowfall retrievals, and improving methods for combining gauge and satellite data. Strategies for future studies to establish better links between the errors in the end products and the upstream data sources are also proposed.

AB We characterize CdSe/ZnS quantum dot (QD) binding to genetically modified bacteriophage as a model for bacterial detection. Interactions among QDs, lambda (lambda) phage, and Escherichia coli are examined by several cross-validated methods. Flow and image-based cytometry clarify fluorescent labeling of bacteria, with image-based cytometry additionally reporting the number of decorated phage bound to cells. Transmission electron microscopy, image-based cytometry, and electrospray differential mobility analysis allow quantization of QDs attached to each phage (4-17 QDs) and show that lambda phage used in this study exhibits enhanced QD binding to the capsid by nearly a factor of four compared to bacteriophage T7. Additionally, the characterization methodology presented can be applied to the quantitative characterization of other fluorescent nanocrystal-biological conjugates. Biotechnol.

AB Background. A novel swine-origin influenza A (H1N1) virus was identified in March 2009 and subsequently caused worldwide outbreaks. The San Diego region was an early focal point of the emerging pandemic. We describe the clinical and epidemiologic characteristics of this novel strain in a military population to assist in future outbreak prevention and control efforts.
Methods. We performed an epidemiologic evaluation of novel H1N1 virus infections diagnosed in San Diego County among 96,258 local US military beneficiaries. The structured military medical system afforded the ability to obtain precise epidemiologic information on the impact on H1N1 virus infection in a population. The novel H1N1 virus was confirmed using real-time reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (rRT-PCR).
Results. From 21 April through 8 May 2009, 761 patients presented with influenza-like illness and underwent rRT-PCR testing. Of these patients, 97 had confirmed novel H1N1 virus infection, with an incidence rate of 101 cases per 100,000 persons. The median age of H1N1 patients with H1N1 virus infection was 21 years (interquartile range, 15-25 years). Fever was a universal symptom in patients with H1N1 virus infection; other symptoms included cough (present in 96% of patients), myalgia or arthralgia (57%), and sore throat (51%). Sixty-eight (70%) of our patients had an identifiable epidemiologic link to another confirmed patient. The largest cluster of cases of H1N1 virus infection occurred on a Navy ship and involved 32 (8%) of 402 crew members; the secondary attack rate was 6%-14%. The rapid influenza testing that was used during this outbreak had a sensitivity of 51% and specificity of 98%, compared with rRT-PCR. Only 1 patient was hospitalized, and there were no deaths.
Conclusions. A novel H1N1 influenza A virus caused a significant outbreak among military beneficiaries in San Diego County, including a significant cluster of cases onboard a Navy ship. The outbreak described here primarily affected adolescents and young adults and resulted in a febrile illness without sequelae.

AB Effluents from desalination technologies may influence natural bacterial assemblages due to changes in salinity, pH, dissolved organic carbon concentration (DOC), DOC quality and cellular hydrostatic pressure. Salinity, pH, and pressure change effects on heterotrophic bacterial production (as measured by leucine incorporation) were examined in experiments with surface water from the Delaware Bay, Atlantic Ocean and Pacific Ocean. Bacterial production decreased by 57-67% when salinity of Atlantic Ocean and Delaware Bay surface water samples were increased from ambient to 60 PSU. Decreasing ambient seawater pH from 8.0 to below 5.0 with CO(2) gas reduced production by 96-100%. Decreasing seawater pH by 1.5 units at 33 PSU caused equivalent inhibition to increasing salinity by 27 PSU (pH 8.0). Bacterial production in Pacific Ocean surface water pressurized for 72 h was decreased 40% by increasing salinity, when measured I h after decompression. However, production increased 43% with increasing salinity when, measured 24 h after decompression. One explanation for these divergent effects between the 1- and 24-h sampling at ambient pH may be community adaptation. Strains amongst the natural assemblage that survived the pressurization by saturating their membrane phospholipids would likely be better adapted to compete for available nutrients under elevated salinity.

AB Objective: Studies comparing virologic response to highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) between African Americans (AA) and European Americans (EA) have been confounded by differences in duration of HIV infection and access to health care. We evaluated virologic response to HAART between ethnicities in a large cohort with fewer confounders.
Methods: The odds of attaining viral suppression at 6- and 12-months post-HAART were determined by multivariate logistic regression for HIV infected AA and EA prospectively followed in a large US military cohort. Time-to-event methods were used to compare maintenance of suppression.
Results: A total of 1363 subjects (51% AA, 92% men) with viral load results available 6 months after HAART initiation were included. There was no difference. between ethnicities in time from seroconversion to HIV diagnosis or HAART initiation or in HAART regimens. Adjusted for multiple demographic and HIV-related factors, AA had significantly lower odds of obtaining undetectable viral loads after 6 (odds ratio 0.6, 95% confidence interval 0.4-0.8, P < 0.001) and 12 months (odds ratio 0.6, 95% confidence interval 0.4-0.8, P = 0.002) of HAART Once undetectable, there was no difference in time to virologic failure between AA and EA.
Conclusions: Despite similar durations of HIV infection and equal access to health care, AAs were significantly less likely to achieve viral suppression compared with EA.

AB Heterostructures consisting of an InGaSb quantum well situated between AlGaSb barriers were grown by molecular beam epitaxy. Calculations indicate a type-I band structure with substantial valence and conduction band offsets that can allow for the confinement of either electrons or holes in the InGaSb. Quantum wells with n-type conduction were achieved using modulation doping, with Te located in the barrier above the quantum well. A set of barrier layers was found which resulted in a sample with an In(0.2)Ga(0.8)Sb quantum well that exhibited an electron mobility of 3900 cm(2)/V S as grown. After removal of upper barrier layers including the Te by selective etching, the conductivity switched to p-type, with hole mobilities near 800 cm(2)/Vs. This design could allow the integration of low-power n- and p-channel field-effect transistors for complementary logic applications. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Large amplitude internal solitary waves in the ocean can interfere with underwater acoustic signals. For certain acoustic parameters (source depth, receiver depth, and frequency) a redistribution of acoustical energy to higher-order acoustic modes can occur as the acoustic signal propagates through the solitary wave train. Depending on the ocean bottom composition, this can result in a significant loss in acoustical signal intensity. In order to simulate and understand this phenomena, it is necessary to generate a solitary wave train that is realistic and contains the spectral components that will interact with the acoustic signal. This requires a primitive equation nonhydrostatic ocean model. Part A [A.C.Warn-Varnas, S.A. Chin-Bing, D. King, J. Hawkins, K. Lamb, Effects on acoustics caused by ocean solitons: Part A. Oceanography, Nonlinear Anal., in press (doi:10.1016/j.na.2009.02.104)] of this two-part article addressed that issue. In this work we use acoustic model simulations to demonstrate the mode linkage between the solitary wave train and the acoustic signal that can result in a large signal loss. Understanding the linkage allows for pre-examination of the solitary wave characteristics to determine if they could affect propagating acoustic signals. The procedure has the advantage that only a few computer runs are required from the ocean model and no lengthy computer runs are required from acoustic propagation models. Only a quick calculation of the acoustic mode eigenvalues is needed. Published by Elsevier Ltd

AB The numerical solution of acoustic pulse propagation through dispersive moving media requires the inclusion of attenuation and its causal companion, phase velocity. For acoustic propagation in a linear medium, Szabo [T.L. Szabo, J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 96 (1994) 491] introduced the concept of a convolutional propagation operator that plays the role of a casual propagation factor in the time domain. This operator was originally proposed to replace the term responsible for including losses from thermal conduction and viscosity of the fluid in the Westervelt equation. The operator has been successfully used in the linear wave equation for quiescent media. Development of the linear wave equation for sound in dispersive fluids with inhomogeneous flow will be described, along with a one-dimensional example. The resulting modified linear wave equation is solved via the method of finite differences. Published by Elsevier Ltd

AB Optimization problems are encountered in all scientific disciplines and in many aspects of everyday life. Application of established optimization methods assumes that an expert can state the optimization problem correctly. Unfortunately, this is not the case in reality. Below we consider how to help an expert state and solve optimization problems. The proposed technique splits constraints of an optimization problem into "soft" (manageable) and "rigid" constraints and modifies the "soft" constraints in an interactive mode with the expert. The technique is illustrated with a numeric example devoted to the optimization of a real-life nonlinear system. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

ID INTERNAL SOLITONS
AB Our work addresses the link between internal solitary waves and acoustics. The location of the study is in the Yellow Sea south of the Shandong peninsula. Previously in this region, we have performed internal solitary wave generation and propagation simulations with the Lamb nonhydrostatic model [K.Lamb, Numerical experiments of internal waves generated by strong tidal flow across a finite amplitude bank edge, J. Geophys. Res. 99 (c1) (1994) 848-864; A. Warn-Varnas, S.A. Chin-Bing, D.B. King, J.A. Hawkins, K.G. Lamb, M. Teixeira, Yellow Sea ocean-acoustic solitary wave modeling studies, J. Geophys. Res. 110 (2005) C08001, doi:10.1029/2004JC002801]. The model parameters were tuned to SAR data. Here, we consider variations of solitary wave characteristics in parameter space. We introduce scaling parameters for a two-layer analogue configuration. This analogue is applied to predicted numerical solutions with the full nonlinear non hydrostatic Lamb model in the first of the above-mentioned references. Variations of density difference across the pycnocline, tidal forcing and topographic height are considered. Characteristics of solitary waves are analyzed as the parameters deviate from a tuned case to data. Changes of solitary wave functional form, amplitude, wavelength, and phase speed are tracked. We consider oceanographic and acoustical parameters that describe the physical ocean-acoustic environment and its associated variability. For certain source, receiver, and acoustical frequency configurations, are distribution of acoustical energy to higher modes can occur and result in acoustical intensity loss in the presence of solitary wave trains [A.Warn-Varnas, S.A.

AB A novel system has been developed for the imaging of carrier transport within semiconductor nanostructures by operating a near field scanning optical microscopy (NSOM) within a scanning electron microscope. Luminescence associated with carrier recombination is collected with high spatial resolution to monitor the motion and recombination of charge generated by use of an electron beam as an independent point source. Light is collected in the near field from a scanning fiber using tuning fork feedback in an open architecture combined AFM/NSOM system allowing independent motion of sample and tip. From a single image, it is possible to obtain a direct measure of minority carrier diffusion length. This technique has been used in the near-field collection mode to image the diffusion of holes in n-type GaN-AlGaN core-shell nanowires, grown via Ni-catalyzed MOCVD. Measurements were made on tapered nanowires ranging in diameter from 500 to 800 nm, with lengths up to similar to 30 mu m. The average 1-dimensional carrier diffusion length was measured to be 1.2 +/- 0.2 mu m in the low injection limit. In addition, it is possible to map the luminescence that is waveguided to the end of the structure, imaging waveguide modes. Published by Elsevier B.V.

ID DIFFUSION
AB An optical technique is used to measure local variations in minority carrier diffusion length associated with dislocation networks in ordered GaInP. Two-dimensional images of the luminescence resulting from carrier generation along a line source are obtained using an optical microscope coupled to a scanning electron microscope. Minority carrier diffusion lengths are determined from the spatial distribution of the recombination luminescence. The use of double heterostructures of AlGaInP/GaInP/AlGaInP restricts diffusion to the plane of the epilayer. Because the technique offers high spatial resolution, it is possible to measure variations in carrier transport associated with the dislocation bands produced due to lattice mismatch with the substrate. Minority carrier diffusion lengths have been correlated to the intensity fluctuations commonly observed in cathodoluminescence across several light and dark bands. In multiple regions of the sample, increased cathodoluminescence intensity occurs in areas of decreased diffusion length. Modeling shows that increased luminescence intensity can correspond to regions of decreased effective minority carrier lifetime, due to the combined effect of variations in non-radiative and radiative recombination rates.

AB Dielectric relaxation measurements were performed on two enantiomers, D- and L-arabinose and their equimolar mixture, and compared to dielectric data obtained for D-ribose. D-Arabinose differs from D-ribose by having the opposite configuration at C2. This study reveals that both D- and L- of arabinose exhibit alpha-relaxation peaks with the same shape for the same alpha-relaxation time tau(alpha), and the same steepness index for the T(g)-scale T-dependence of tau(alpha). However, the two isomers have slightly different glass transition temperatures T(g)'s, and their secondary gamma-relaxation times also differ slightly from the previously observed gamma-relaxation in D-ribose at the same temperature. However, when samples of both investigated monosaccharides are annealed at higher temperatures, their glass transition temperatures become nearly identical. This is an effect of the mutarotation process, which leads to the formation of pairs of the enantiomers and accordingly they should have the same physical properties. The width of the alpha-relaxation Of D- and L-arabinose is broader than that Of D-ribose, as reflected by the smaller stretch exponent in the Kohlrausch-Williams-Watts function used to fit the data of the former (beta(KWW) = 0.46 +/- 0.01) than the latter (beta(KWW) = 0.55 +/- 0.01). The width of the alpha-relaxation of racemic mixture of the D- and L-arabinose is slightly broader than that of the pure isomers. While the dielectric loss data Of D-ribose in the glassy state at ambient and elevated pressures show an inflexion indicating the presence of the JG beta-relaxation, the data Of D- and L-arabinose show no such feature for identification of the supposedly universal JG beta-relaxation. Nevertheless, on comparing the loss spectra of D-arabinose with that Of D-ribose, the presence of the JG beta-relaxation in D-arabinose has been rationalized. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Vapor-phase mechanisms [e.g., vapor-liquid-solid (VLS), vapor-solid-solid, oxide-assisted growth, and the self-catalytic growth mechanisms] for the unidirectional nanowire (NW) growth are not yet well understood. For this understanding, growths of GaN and InN NWs in our laboratory, without and with the assistance of foreign element catalytic agents (FECAs), such as Au and In, were performed. GaN NW growth, in the presence of FECA equivalent to Ni, was possible at temperatures below the Ni/Ga eutectic temperature. InN NWs were grown, in the presence of Au, and at temperatures in the vicinity of Au/In eutectic temperature. They were found to have Au at the NW tip, NW base, and NW sidewalls. Extensive investigation of the fundamentals underlying these anomalies has been carried out. The temperature dependence of the VLS mechanism has also been elucidated. A large number of available elemental and compound semiconductor NWs exhibiting similar characteristics have been considered for the investigation. Based on this investigation, a chemicophysical mechanism called the vapor-quasisolid-solid (VQS) (or vapor-semisolid-solid, or vapor-quasiliquid-solid, or vapor-semiliquid-solid) mechanism has been proposed. The cause of temperature dependence of the VLS growth under different growth conditions and growth environments, and the possible relationship between the VLS and the VQS mechanisms has been presented. To better describe the vapor-phase mechanisms, including the VQS mechanism, a unified definition of droplets has been proposed. A series of experimental evidences has been set forth to substantiate the validity of the proposed mechanism, and to justify the definition of the unified droplet model. They together appear to explain the fundamental basis of the NW growth by various mechanisms, including the VQS mechanisms. They also provide solutions of many known problems, conflicts, confusions, and controversies involving NW growth.

TI Modulated High-Energy Gamma-Ray Emission from the Microquasar Cygnus X-3
SO SCIENCE

DT Article
ID X-RAY; CYG X-3; BINARIES; PULSARS; SEARCH
AB Microquasars are accreting black holes or neutron stars in binary systems with associated relativistic jets. Despite their frequent outburst activity, they have never been unambiguously detected emitting high-energy gamma rays. The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) has detected a variable high-energy source coinciding with the position of the x-ray binary and microquasar Cygnus X-3. Its identification with Cygnus X-3 is secured by the detection of its orbital period in gamma rays, as well as the correlation of the LAT flux with radio emission from the relativistic jets of Cygnus X-3. The gamma-ray emission probably originates from within the binary system, opening new areas in which to study the formation of relativistic jets.

AB In an effort to broaden the immune response induced by the RTS,S/AS02(A),vaccine, we have evaluated the immunogenicity of the RTS,S antigen when combined with MSP1(42) and with AMA1, antigens derived from the asexual blood stage. The objectives of this study were (i) to determine whether MSP1(42) and AMA1 vaccines formulated with the AS02(A) Adjuvant System were safe and immunogenic in the rhesus monkey model; (ii) to investigate whether MSP1(42) or AMA1 induced immune interference to each other, or to RTS,S, when added singly or in combinations at a single injection site; (iii) in the event of immune interference, to determine if this could be reduced when antigens were administered at separate sites. We found that MSP1(42) and AMA1 were safe and immunogenic, eliciting antibodies, and Th1 and Th2 responses using IFN-gamma and IL-5 as markers. When malaria antigens were delivered together in one formulation, MSP1(42) and RTS,S reduced AMA1-specific antibody responses as measured by ELISA however, only MSP1(42) lowered parasite growth inhibitory activity of anti-AMA1 antibodies as measured by in vitro growth inhibition assay. Unlike RTS,S, MSP1(42) significantly reduced AMA1 IFN-gamma and IL-5 responses. MSPI 42 suppression of AMA1 IFN-gamma responses was not seen in animals receiving RTS,S + AMA1 + MSP1(42) suggesting that RTS,S restored IFN-gamma responses. Conversely, AMAII had no effect on MSP1(42) antibody and IFN-gamma and IL-5 responses. Neither AMA1 alone or combined with MISP1(42) affected RTS,S antibody or IFN-gamma and IL-5 responses. Immune interference by MSP1(42) on AMA1 antibody responses was also evident when AMA1, MSP1(42) and RTS,S were administered concurrently at separate sites. These results suggest that immune interference may be complex and should be considered for the design of multi-antigen, multi-stage vaccines against malaria. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB We report the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) discovery of high-energy (MeV/GeV) gamma-ray emission positionally consistent with the center of the radio galaxy M87, at a source significance of over 10 sigma in 10 months of all-sky survey data. Following the detections of Cen A and Per A, this makes M87 the third radio galaxy seen with the LAT. The faint point-like gamma-ray source has a >100 MeV flux of 2.45 (+/-0.63) x 10(-8) photons cm(-2) s(-1) (photon index = 2.26 +/- 0.13) with no significant variability detected within the LAT observation. This flux is comparable with the previous EGRET upper limit (<2.18 x 10-8 photons cm(-2) s(-1), 2 sigma), thus there is no evidence for a significant MeV/GeV flare on decade timescales. Contemporaneous Chandra and Very Long Baseline Array data indicate low activity in the unresolved X-ray and radio core relative to previous observations, suggesting M87 is in a quiescent overall level over the first year of Fermi-LAT observations. The LAT gamma-ray spectrum is modeled as synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) emission from the electron population producing the radio-to-X-ray emission in the core. The resultant SSC spectrum extrapolates smoothly from the LAT band to the historical-minimum TeV emission. Alternative models for the core and possible contributions from the kiloparsec-scale jet in M87 are considered, and cannot be excluded.

AB A detailed study of emission lines from Fe VII, Fe VIII, and Fe IX observed by the EUV Imaging Spectrometer on board the Hinode satellite is presented. Spectra in the ranges 170-212 angstrom and 246-292 angstrom show strongly enhanced lines from the upper solar transition region (temperatures 5.4 <= log T <= 5.9) allowing a number of new line identifications to be made. Comparisons of Fe VII lines with predictions from a new atomic model reveal new plasma diagnostics, however there are a number of disagreements between theory and observation for emission line ratios insensitive to density and temperature, suggesting improved atomic data are required. Line ratios for Fe VIII also show discrepancies with theory, with the strong lambda 185.21 and lambda 186.60 lines underestimated by 60%-80% compared to lines between 192 and 198 angstrom. A newly identified multiplet between 253.9 and 255.8 angstrom offers excellent temperature diagnostic opportunities relative to the lines between 185 and 198 angstrom, however the atomic model underestimates the strength of these lines by factors of 3-6. Two new line identifications are made for Fe IX at wavelengths 176.959 angstrom and 177.594 angstrom, while seven other lines between 186 and 200 angstrom are suggested to be due to Fe IX but for which transition identifications cannot be made. The new atomic data for Fe VII and Fe IX are demonstrated to significantly modify models for the response function of the Transition Region And Coronal Explorer 195 angstrom imaging channel, affecting temperature determinations from this channel. The data will also affect the response functions for other solar EUV imaging instruments such as SOHO/EIT, STEREO/EUVI, and the upcoming AIA instrument on the Solar Dynamics Observatory.

AB The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has opened a new high-energy window in the study of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). Here we present a thorough analysis of GRB 080825C, which triggered the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM), and was the first firm detection of a GRB by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT). We discuss the LAT event selections, background estimation, significance calculations, and localization for Fermi GRBs in general and GRB 080825C in particular. We show the results of temporal and time-resolved spectral analysis of the GBM and LAT data. We also present some theoretical interpretation of GRB 080825C observations as well as some common features observed in other LAT GRBs.

AB Following the recent discovery of gamma rays from the radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy PMN J0948+0022 (z = 0.5846), we started a multiwavelength campaign from radio to gamma rays, which was carried out between the end of 2009 March and the beginning of July. The source displayed activity at all the observed wavelengths: a general decreasing trend from optical to gamma-ray frequencies was followed by an increase of radio emission after less than two months from the peak of the gamma-ray emission. The largest flux change, about a factor of about 4, occurred in the X-ray band. The smallest was at ultraviolet and near-infrared frequencies, where the rate of the detected photons dropped by a factor 1.6-1.9. At optical wavelengths, where the sampling rate was the highest, it was possible to observe day scale variability, with flux variations up to a factor of about 3. The behavior of PMN J0948+0022 observed in this campaign and the calculated power carried out by its jet in the form of protons, electrons, radiation, and magnetic field are quite similar to that of blazars, specifically of flat-spectrum radio quasars. These results confirm the idea that radio-loud narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies host relativistic jets with power similar to that of average blazars.

AB We present a 100 ks Suzaku observation of the dMe flare star EV Lac, in which the star was captured undergoing a moderate 1500 s flare. During the flare, the count rate increased by about a factor of 50 and the spectrum showed overall enhanced element abundances relative to quiescence. While the quiescent element abundances confirm the inverse first ionization potential (FIP) effect previously documented for EV Lac, with relatively higher depletions for low FIP elements, abundances during the flare spectra show a composition closer to that of the stellar photosphere. We discuss these results in the context of models that explain abundance fractionation in the stellar chromosphere as a result of the ponderomotive force due to Alfven waves. Stars with FIP or inverse FIP effects arising from differently directed ponderomotive forces may have quite different abundance signatures in their evaporated chromospheric plasma during flares, if the same ponderomotive force also affects thermal conduction downward from the corona. The regulation of the thermal conductivity by the ponderomotive force requires a level of turbulence that is somewhat higher than is normally assumed, but plausible in filamentary conduction models.

AB Two numerical techniques are proposed to construct a polynomial chaos (PC) representation of an arbitrary second-order random vector. In the first approach, a PC representation is constructed by matching a target joint probability density function (pdf) based on sequential conditioning (a sequence of conditional probability relations) in conjunction with the Rosenblatt transformation. In the second approach, the PC representation is obtained by having recourse to the Rosenblatt transformation and simultaneously matching a set of target marginal pdfs and target Spearman's rank correlation coefficient (SRCC) matrix. Both techniques are applied to model an experimental spatio-temporal data set, exhibiting strong non-stationary and non-Gaussian features. The data consists of a set of oceanographic temperature records obtained from a shallow-water acoustics transmission experiment [1]. The measurement data, observed over a finite denumerable subset of the indexing set of the random process, is treated as a collection of observed samples of a second-order random vector that can be treated as a finite-dimensional approximation of the original random field. A set of properly ordered conditional pdfs, that uniquely characterizes the target joint pdf, in the first approach and a set of target marginal pdfs and a target SRCC matrix. in the second approach, are estimated from available experimental data. Digital realizations sampled from the constructed PC representations based on both schemes capture the observed statistical characteristics of the experimental data with sufficient accuracy. The relative advantages and disadvantages of the two proposed techniques are also highlighted. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB Enantiomers of N-substituted benzofuro[2,3-c]pyridin-6-ols have been synthesized, and the subnanomolar affinity and potent agonist activity of the known racemic N-phenethyl substituted benzofuro[2,3-c]pyridin-6-ol can now be ascribed to the 4aS,9aR enantiomer. The energy-minimized structures suggest that the active enantiomer bears a greater three-dimensional resemblance to morphine than to an ostensibly structurally similar oxide-bridged phenylmorphan. Structural features of the conformers of N-substituted benzofuro[2,3-c]pyridin-6-ols were compared to provide the rationale for their binding affinity.

AB We present a detailed intercomparison of five ground-based 22 GHz microwave radiometers for stratospheric and mesospheric water vapor. Four of these instruments are members of the Network for the Detection of Atmospheric Composition Change (NDACC). The global measurements of middle atmospheric water vapor of the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) onboard the Aura satellite serve as reference and allow intercomparison of the ground-based systems that are located between 45 degrees S and 57 degrees N. The retrievals of water vapor profiles from the ground-based radiation measurements have been made consistent to a large extent: for the required temperature profiles, we used the global temperature measurements of MLS and we agreed on one common set of spectroscopic parameters. The agreement with the reference measurements is better than +/- 8% in the altitude range from 0.01 to 3 hPa. Strong correlation is found between the ground-based and the reference data in the mesosphere with respect to seasonal cycle and planetary waves. In the stratosphere the measurements are generally more noisy and become sensitive to instrumental instabilities toward lower levels (pressures greater than 3 hPa). We further present a compilation of a NDACC data set based on the retrieval parameters described herein but using a temperature climatology derived from the MLS record. This makes the ground-based measurements independent of additional information and allows extension of the data set for years in a homogeneous manner.

A corrugated pattern etched into both sidewalls of the 6- and 9-mu m-wide ridges serves to suppress higher-order lateral modes by increasing their loss, and also provides a fourth-order distributed-feedback grating for longitudinal mode selection. Despite the grating's weak coupling strength, the 9 mu m ridge produced up to 12 mW per facet of single-mode cw output power at 25 degrees C, with a side-mode suppression ratio of >30 dB.

AB The acoustic phonons of the epsilon polymorph of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazatetracyclo [5.5.0.0(5,9).0(3,11)] dodecane (epsilon-CL-20) have been studied using Brillouin scattering spectroscopy. Analysis of the acoustic phonon velocities allowed determination of the complete stiffness tensor for this energetic material. The results are compared to a theoretical determination of the epsilon-CL-20 elastic constants, bulk moduli, and shear moduli. The observed ordering of elastic constants, C(22) > C(33) > C(11), is noted to be different from other nitramine energetic materials. Finally, the elasticity of epsilon-CL-20 is compared to recently published reports on cyclotrimethylene trinitramine's (RDX) elasticity and the beta polymorph of cyclotetramethylene tetranitramine's (beta-HMX) elasticity.

ID PROPAGATION
AB This paper presents a detailed investigation of the physical mechanisms underlying the disruption of a lithium niobate electrooptic modulator by RF pulses. It is shown that short-term modulator disruption is a direct consequence of resistive heating within the metal conductor of the coplanar waveguide electrode, which leads to a thermo-optic optical phase shift in the waveguides of the modulator. Resistive heating is also shown to contribute to permanent modulator damage at higher RF power. These results indicate that short-term RF disruption, and possibly RF damage, can be mitigated through improved thermal management. They also predict that short-term photonic link disruption can be reduced, if not eliminated, by use of a phase modulated photonic link.

The WVMS measurements are compared with Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE) (1992-2005), Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) (2004 to present), and Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment (ACE) Fourier transform spectrometer (2004 to present) measurements in the mesosphere. In the upper mesosphere Lyman alpha radiation photodissociates water vapor; hence, water vapor in the upper mesosphere varies with the solar cycle. We calculate fits to the WVMS and HALOE water vapor data in this region using the Lasp Interactive Solar Irradiance Datacenter Lyman alpha data set. This is, to our knowledge, the only published validation of the sensitivity of HALOE water vapor measurements to the solar cycle, and the HALOE and WVMS water vapor measurements show a very similar sensitivity to the solar cycle. Once the solar cycle variations are taken into account, the primary water vapor variations at all of these altitudes from 1992 to the present are an increase from 1992 to 1996, a maximum in water vapor in 1996, and small changes from 1997 to the present. Measurements from 2004 to 2008, which are available from WVMS, MLS, and ACE, show not only good agreement in interannual variations but also excellent agreement in their absolute measurements (to within better than 3%) of the water vapor mixing ratio from 50 to 80 km.

AB Concerns about respiratory conditions have surfaced among persons deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. Data on 46,077 Millennium Cohort Study participants who completed baseline (July 2001-June 2003) and follow-up (June 2004-February 2006) questionnaires were used to investigate 1) respiratory symptoms (persistent or recurring cough or shortness of breath), 2) chronic bronchitis or emphysema, and 3) asthma. Deployers had a higher rate of newly reported respiratory symptoms than nondeployers (14% vs. 10%), while similar rates of chronic bronchitis or emphysema (1% vs. 1%) and asthma (1% vs. 1%) were observed. Deployment was associated with respiratory symptoms in both Army (adjusted odds ratio = 1.73, 95% confidence interval: 1.57, 1.91) and Marine Corps (adjusted odds ratio = 1.49, 95% confidence interval: 1.06, 2.08) personnel, independently of smoking status. Deployment length was linearly associated with increased symptom reporting in Army personnel (P < 0.0001). Among deployers, elevated odds of symptoms were associated with land-based deployment as compared with sea-based deployment. Although respiratory symptoms were associated with deployment, inconsistency in risk with cumulative exposure time suggests that specific exposures rather than deployment in general are determinants of postdeployment respiratory illness. Significant associations seen with land-based deployment also imply that exposures related to ground combat may be important.

DE Casimir effect; surface tension; surface waves (fluid); water waves
ID RADIATION PRESSURE; HYDRODYNAMIC SOLITON; FORCE; VACUUM
AB Two rigid plates are vertically suspended by thread such that they are parallel to and opposite each other. The plates are partially submerged in a dish of liquid that is attached to the top of a vertical shake table. When the shake table is driven with noise in a frequency band, random surface waves are parametrically excited, and the plates move toward each other. The reason for this attraction is that the waves carry momentum, and the wave motion between the plates is visibly reduced. The behavior is analogous to the Casimir effect, in which two conducting uncharged parallel plates attract each other due to the zero-point spectrum of electromagnetic radiation. The water wave analog can be readily demonstrated and offers a visual demonstration of a Casimir-type effect. Measurements of the force agree with the water wave theory even at large wave amplitudes, where the theory is expected to break down. The water wave analog applies to side-by-side ships in a rough sea and is distinct from the significant attraction that can be caused by a strong swell.

SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSICS

DE calculus; harmonic oscillators; physics education; Poisson equation
AB Carathegraveodory's classic work on the calculus of variations explores in depth the connection between ordinary differential equations and first-order partial differential equations. The n second-order ordinary differential equations of a classical dynamical system reduce to a single first-order differential equation in 2n independent variables. The general solution of first-order partial differential equations touches on many concepts central to graduate-level courses in analytical dynamics including the Hamiltonian, Lagrange and Poisson brackets, and the Hamilton-Jacobi equation. For all but the simplest dynamical systems the solution requires one or more of these techniques. Three elementary dynamical problems (uniform acceleration, harmonic motion, and cyclotron motion) can be solved directly from the appropriate first-order partial differential equation without the use of advanced methods. The process offers an unusual perspective on classical dynamics, which is readily accessible to intermediate students who are not yet fully conversant with advanced approaches.

AB Background: Modem war ballistics and blast injuries inflict devastating extremity injuries, violating soft tissue, bone, and neurovascular structures. Despite advances in complex wound management, appropriate timing of war wound closure remains subjective. In addition, the pathophysiology of acute wound failure is poorly defined.
Methods: Patients with penetrating extremity wounds sustained during combat were prospectively studied and followed for 30 days after definitive wound closure. The primary outcome was wound healing. Wound dehiscence was defined as spontaneous partial or complete wound disruption after closure. Serum, wound effluent, and wound bed tissue biopsy were collected at each surgical wound debridement. Serum and wound effluent were analyzed with a multiplex array of 22 cytokines and chemokines, and wound tissue for corresponding gene transcript expression.
Results: Fifty-two penetrating extremity war wounds in 33 male patients were investigated. Nine (17%) wounds dehisced. Concomitant vascular injury, increased wound size, and higher injury severity score correlated with wound dehiscence. Both serum and wound effluent cytokine and chemokine protein profiles were statistically associated with healing outcome at various time points. Wound biopsy gene transcript expression demonstrated increased tissue inflammation associated with wound failure. Multiple protein and gene transcript biomarkers predictive of wound healing were identified.
Conclusions: The cytokine and chemokine protein and gene transcript expression patterns demonstrate a condition of inflammatory dysregulation associated with war wound failure. A molecular biomarker panel may predict combat wound healing outcome and warrants prospective validation.

Both experimental and computational studies are conducted. For the experimental study, specimens made of hybrid scarf joints using carbon-fiber and glass-fiber woven fabrics are tested under compressive loadings to determine their joint failure strengths. Computational models are then developed using the discrete resin layer model along with fracture mechanics and virtual crack closure techniques. The numerical models are validated against the experimental data. The validate models are used to predict the joint strengths under different loading conditions such as axial, shear, and bending moment loadings.

DT Article
ID GROWTH
AB Plate-shaped piezoelectric transformers were designed and manufactured with Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3-PbTiO3 single crystals (PMN-PT). Theoretical analysis was performed using Mason's equivalent circuit model and finite element method (FEM) simulations. In the experiment, transformer performances, especially the power density, were compared among different materials, including lead zirconate titanate (PZT) ceramics, undoped PMN-PT, and manganese-doped PMN-PT (Mn-PMN-PT). High power density of 38 W/cm(3) was obtained using single crystals, which was 5 times that of hard PZT ceramics. The power level of the single crystal transformer showed a significant dependence on doping, poling direction, and cutting orientation.

AB Insomnia is a common problem in situations of stress. Some forms of stress, however, may contraindicate the use of traditional, pharmacological interventions. Working in a combat zone is such a situation. Alternative means of improving sleep are clearly needed for Service Members. We report a case involving a medical provider who was serving in a military, emergency-services facility in Iraq, and who presented with anxiety, depressed mood, and insomnia. Symptoms were sub-threshold for major depressive disorder or acute stress disorder. Mood and anxiety symptoms responded to traditional therapy techniques, but problems with insomnia remained. The patient was given a portable biofeedback device that employs an infrared sensor photoplethysmograph to measure heart rate variability (HRV) from peripheral finger pulse. One week later, sleep was significantly improved. Symptom improvement lasted to at least 6 weeks while in theater. One year later, a check-in with the patient revealed that after returning home, he had been diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). PTSD symptoms had resolved after 6 months of psychopharmacology and cognitive behavioral therapy. These results indicate that biofeedback may be a useful means of improving sleep in a combat zone, but that such improvements may not necessarily prevent the development of more serious symptoms later. No clear causality can be inferred from a single case, and further study is needed to determine if this finding have wider applicability.

TI Analogical model formulation for transfer learning in AP Physics
SO ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE
LA English
DT Article
DE Transfer learning; Analogical reasoning; Model formulation; Case-based
reasoning
ID ACQUISITION; EVENTS
AB Transfer learning is the ability to apply previously learned knowledge to new problems or domains. In qualitative reasoning, model formulation is the process of moving from the unruly, broad set of concepts used in everyday life to a concise, formal vocabulary of abstractions, assumptions, causal relationships, and models that support problem-solving. Approaching transfer learning from a model formulation perspective, we found that analogy with examples can be used to learn how to solve AP Physics style problems. We call this process analogical model formulation and implement it in the Companion cognitive architecture. A Companion begins with some basic mathematical skills, a broad common sense ontology, and some qualitative mechanics, but no equations. The Companion uses worked solutions, explanations of example problems at the level of detail appearing in textbooks, to learn what equations are relevant, how to use them, and the assumptions necessary to solve physics problems. We present an experiment, conducted by the Educational Testing Service, demonstrating that analogical model formulation enables a Companion to learn to solve AP Physics style problems. Across six different variations of relationships between base and target problems, or transfer levels, a Companion exhibited a 63% improvement in initial performance. While already a significant result, we describe an in-depth analysis of this experiment to pinpoint the causes of failures. Interestingly, the sources of failures were primarily due to errors in the externally generated problem and worked solution representations as well as some domain-specific problem-solving strategies, not analogical model formulation. To verify this, we describe a second experiment which was performed after fixing these problems. In this second experiment, a Companion achieved a 95.8% improvement in initial performance due to transfer, which is nearly perfect. We know of no other problem-solving experiments which demonstrate performance of analogical learning over systematic variations of relationships between problems at this scale. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB We present absolute parallaxes and relative proper motions for the central stars of the planetary nebulae NGC 6853 (The Dumbbell), NGC 7293 (The Helix), Abell 31, and DeHt 5. This paper details our reduction and analysis using DeHt 5 as an example. We obtain these planetary nebula nuclei (PNNi) parallaxes with astrometric data from Fine Guidance Sensors FGS 1r and FGS 3, white-light interferometers on the Hubble Space Telescope. Proper motions, spectral classifications and VJHKT(2)M and DDO51 photometry of the stars comprising the astrometric reference frames provide spectrophotometric estimates of reference star absolute parallaxes. Introducing these into our model as observations with error, we determine absolute parallaxes for each PNN. Weighted averaging with previous independent parallax measurements yields an average parallax precision, sigma(pi)/pi = 5%. Derived distances are: d(NGC6853) = 405(-25)(+28) pc, d(NGC7293) = 216(-12)(+14) pc, d(Abell 31) = 621(-70)(+91) pc, and d(DeHt 5) = 345(-17)(+19) pc. These PNNi distances are all smaller than previously derived from spectroscopic analyses of the central stars. To obtain absolute magnitudes from these distances requires estimates of interstellar extinction. We average extinction measurements culled from the literature, from reddening based on PNNi intrinsic colors derived from model SEDs, and an assumption that each PNN experiences the same rate of extinction as a function of distance as do the reference stars nearest (in angular separation) to each central star. We also apply Lutz-Kelker bias corrections. The absolute magnitudes and effective temperatures permit estimates of PNNi radii through both the Stefan-Boltzmann relation and Eddington fluxes. Comparing absolute magnitudes with post-AGB models provides mass estimates. Masses cluster around 0.57 M-circle dot, close to the peak of the white dwarf mass distribution. Adding a few more PNNi with well-determined distances and masses, we compare all the PNNi with cooler white dwarfs of similar mass, and confirm, as expected, that PNNi have larger radii than white dwarfs that have reached their final cooling tracks.

AB Context. Diffuse radio emission, in the form of radio halos and relics, traces regions in clusters with shocks or turbulence, probably produced by cluster mergers. The shocks and turbulence are important for the total energetics and detailed temperature distribution within the intracluster medium (ICM). Only a small fraction of clusters exhibit diffuse radio emission, whereas a large majority of well-studied clusters shows clear substructure in the ICM. Some models of diffuse radio emission in clusters indicate that virtually all clusters should contain diffuse radio sources with a steep spectrum. External accretion shocks associated with filamentary structures of galaxies could also accelerate electrons to relativistic energies and hence produce diffuse synchrotron emitting regions. The detection of radio emission from such filaments is important for our understanding of the origin of the Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium (WHIM), and relativistic electrons and magnetic fields in the cosmic web. Here we report on Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) observations of a sample of steep spectrum sources from the 74 MHz VLSS survey. These sources are diffuse on scales greater than or similar to 15 '', and not clearly associated with nearby (z less than or similar to 0.1) galaxies.
Aims. The main aim of the observations is to search for diffuse radio emission associated with galaxy clusters or the cosmic web.
Methods. We have carried out GMRT 610 MHz continuum observations of unidentified diffuse steep spectrum sources.
Results. We have constructed a sample of diffuse steep spectrum sources, selected from the 74 MHz VLSS survey. We identified eight diffuse radio sources probably all located in clusters. We found five radio relics, one cluster with a giant radio halo and a radio relic, and one radio mini-halo. The giant radio halo has the highest radio power (P(1.4)) known to date. By complementing our observations with measurements from the literature we find correlations between the physical size of relics and the spectral index, in the sense that smaller relics have steeper spectra. Furthermore, larger relics are mostly located in the outskirts of clusters while smaller relics are located closer to the cluster center.

AB Aims. We present a hot white dwarf (WD) luminosity function (LF) using data taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 4. We present and discuss a combined LF, along with separate DA and non-DA as LFs. We explore the completeness of our LFs and interpret a sudden drop in the non-DA LF near 2 M(bol) as a transition of the non-DA WD atmosphere into the DA one during WD evolution. Our LF extends roughly between -0.5 < M(bol) < 7 or equivalently, similar to 120 000 K > T(eff) > similar to 25 000 K. Our LF should now be useful for estimates of recent star formation and for studies of neutrino and other potential particle emission losses in hot WDs.
Methods. To create a sample whose completeness can be characterized fully, we used stars whose spectra were obtained via the SDSS's "hot standard" target selection criteria. The hot standard stars were purposefully targeted to a high level of completeness by the SDSS for calibration purposes. We are fortunate that many of them are hot white dwarfs stars. We further limited the sample to stars with fitted temperatures exceeding 23 500 K and log g > 7.0. We determined stellar distances for our sample based on their absolute SDSS g filter magnitudes, derived from WD stellar atmosphere model fits to the SDSS stellar spectra.
Results. We compared our LF with those of other researchers where overlap occurs; however, our LFs are unique in their extension to the most luminous/hottest WDs. The cool end of our LF connects with the hot end of previously determined SDSS WD LFs and agreement here is quite good. It is also good with previous non-SDSS WD LFs. We note distinct differences between the DA and non-DA LFs and discuss the reliability of the DA LF at its hot end. We have extended the range of luminosities covered in the most recent WD LFs. The SDSS sample is understood quite well and its exploration should contribute to a number of new insights into early white dwarf evolution.

AB Context. Hierarchical galaxy formation models indicate that during their lifetime galaxy clusters undergo several mergers. An example of such a merging cluster is Abell 2256. Here we report on the discovery of three diffuse radio sources in the periphery of Abell 2256, using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT).
Aims. The aim of the observations was to search for diffuse ultra-steep spectrum radio sources within the galaxy cluster Abell 2256.
Methods. We have carried out GMRT 325 MHz radio continuum observations of Abell 2256. V, R and I band images of the cluster were taken with the 4.2 m William Herschel Telescope (WHT).
Results. We have discovered three diffuse elongated radio sources located about 1 Mpc from the cluster center. Two are located to the west of the cluster center, and one to the southeast. The sources have a measured physical extent of 170, 140 and 240 kpc, respectively. The two western sources are also visible in deep low-resolution 115-165 MHz Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) images, although they are blended into a single source. For the combined emission of the blended source we find an extreme spectral index (alpha) of -2.05 +/- 0.14 between 140 and 351 MHz. The extremely steep spectral index suggests these two sources are most likely the result of adiabatic compression of fossil radio plasma due to merger shocks. For the source to the southeast, we find that alpha < -1.45 between 1369 and 325 MHz. We did not find any clear optical counterparts to the radio sources in the WHT images.
Conclusions. The discovery of the steep spectrum sources implies the existence of a population of faint diffuse radio sources in (merging) clusters with such steep spectra that they have gone unnoticed in higher frequency (greater than or similar to 1 GHz) observations. Simply considering the timescales related to the AGN activity, synchrotron losses, and the presence of shocks, we find that most massive clusters should possess similar sources. An exciting possibility therefore is that such sources will determine the general appearance of clusters in low-frequency high resolution radio maps as will be produced by for example LOFAR or LWA.

AB We report the detection of gamma-ray pulsations (>= 0.1GeV) from PSR J2229+ 6114 and PSR J1048-5832, the latter having been detected as a low-significance pulsar by EGRET. Data in the gamma-ray band were acquired by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) aboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, while the radio rotational ephemerides used to fold the gamma-ray light curves were obtained using the Green Bank Telescope, the Lovell telescope at Jodrell Bank, and the Parkes Telescope. The two young radio pulsars, located within the error circles of the previously unidentified EGRET sources 3EG J1048-5840 and 3EG J2227+6122, present spin-down characteristics similar to the Vela pulsar. PSR J1048-5832 shows two sharp peaks at phases 0.15 +/- 0.01 and 0.57 +/- 0.01 relative to the radio pulse confirming the EGRET light curve, while PSR J2229+ 6114 presents a very broad peak at phase 0.49 +/- 0.01. The gamma-ray spectra above 0.1 GeV of both pulsars are fit with power laws having exponential cutoffs near 3 GeV, leading to integral photon fluxes of (2.19 +/- 0.22 +/- 0.32) x 10(-7) cm(-2) s(-1) for PSR J1048-5832 and (3.77 +/- 0.22 +/- 0.44) x 10(-7) cm(-2) s(-1) for PSR J2229+6114. The first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. PSR J1048-5832 is one of the two LAT sources whichwere entangled together as 3EG J1048-5840. These detections add to the growing number of young gamma-ray pulsars that make up the dominant population of GeV gamma-ray sources in the Galactic plane.

AB We present a study of the correlations between spectral, timing properties, and mass accretion rate observed in X-rays from the Galactic black hole (BH) binary GRS 1915+105 during the transition between hard and soft states. We analyze all transition episodes from this source observed with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer, coordinated with Ryle Radio Telescope observations. We show that broadband energy spectra of GRS 1915+105 during all these spectral states can be adequately presented by two bulk motion Comptonization (BMC) components: a hard component (BMC1, photon index Gamma(1) = 1.7-3.0) with turnover at high energies and soft thermal component (BMC2, Gamma(2) = 2.7-4.2) with characteristic color temperature <= 1 keV, and the redskewed iron-line (LAOR) component. We also present observable correlations between the index and the normalization of the disk "seed" component. The use of "seed" disk normalization, which is presumably proportional to mass accretion rate in the disk, is crucial to establish the index saturation effect during the transition to the soft state. We discovered the photon index saturation of the soft and hard spectral components at values of less than or similar to 4.2 and 3, respectively. We present a physical model which explains the index-seed photon normalization correlations. We argue that the index saturation effect of the hard component (BMC1) is due to the soft photon Comptonization in the converging inflow close to the BH and that of soft component is due to matter accumulation in the transition layer when mass accretion rate increases. Furthermore, we demonstrate a strong correlation between equivalent width of the iron line and radio flux in GRS 1915+105. In addition to our spectral model components we also find a strong feature of "blackbody (BB)-like" bump whose color temperature is about 4.5 keV in eight observations of the intermediate and soft states. We discuss a possible origin of this "BB-like" emission.

AB We explore the role of star clusters in the nuclear regions of galaxies through their connection with active galactic nuclei (AGN). Nuclear star clusters (NCs) are conspicuous in the centers of most nearby galaxies, all along the Hubble sequence. These clusters are probably the faint-end distribution of the central supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in massive bulges. On the other hand, star formation is known to be ongoing in the majority of Seyfert nuclei and in many low-luminosity active galactic nuclei (LLAGN). We study two samples of AGN galaxies (75 Seyferts and 26 LLAGN) in the near-ultraviolet with the Hubble Space Telescope's Advanced Camera for Surveys. We aim to better understand the connection between the growing of the SMBH and the build-up of the bulge, and we also intend to make statistical progress and determine the properties of the population of NCs coexisting with growing SMBHs.

AB CAMPBELL IS, MOORE JL, POYTHRESS NG, KENNEDY CH. Personality traits in clinically referred aviators: two clusters related to occupational suitability. Aviat Space Environ Med 2009; 80:1049-54.
Background: The Five Factor Model (FFM) of normal personality provides a compelling framework for investigating personality subtypes in large military populations. The FFM was used to determine whether a sample of clinically referred military aviators exhibited commonly occurring personality clusters, Methods: The Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI-R) was used to evaluate 956 clinically referred U.S. Naval aviators and flight officers oil the domains of neuroticism (N), extroversion (E), openness (O), agreeableness (A), and conscientiousness (C). The scores were subjected to model-based cluster analysis and emergent clusters were compared with respect to their scores and clinical outcomes. Results: A two-cluster model provided the best fit to the data. MANOVA indicated significant differences between the two cluster groups with respect to four of the five factors (N, E, A, and C). The greatest differences were for N and E, with the smaller group (Group 1, N = 291) being significantly more neurotic and less extroverted than Group 2 (N = 665). Cluster membership had more specificity (0.74) than sensitivity (0.59) for predicting adverse clinical outcome, with file probability of an adverse clinical outcome increasing from 0.14 to 0.28 for those in the neurotic and introverted Group 1. Conclusions: Elevated neuroticism and depressed extraversion were the defining traits of the personality Cluster less suited for aviation duty (Group 1). Results support assessment of neuroticism and extroversion during clinical mental health evaluations related to military aviation duty.

AB When a phenomenon in nature is mimicked for practical applications, it is often done so in an idealized fashion, such as representing the shape found in nature with convenient, piece-wise smooth mathematical functions. The aim of idealization is to capture the advantageous features of the natural phenomenon without having to exactly replicate it, and it is often assumed that the idealization process does in fact capture the relevant geometry. We explored the consequences of the idealization process by creating exact scale models of cetacean flippers using CT scans, creating corresponding idealized versions and then determining the hydrodynamic characteristics of the models via water tunnel testing. We found that the majority of the idealized models did not exhibit fluid dynamic properties that were drastically different from those of the real models, although multiple consequences resulting from the idealization process were evident. Drag performance was significantly improved by idealization. Overall, idealization is an excellent way to capture the relevant effects of a phenomenon found in nature, which spares the researcher from having to painstakingly create exact models, although we have found that there are situations where idealization may have unintended consequences such as one model that exhibited a decrease in lift performance.

AB Disease surveillance networks in the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Africa are models for the kind of transnational cooperation that can mount the needed flexible and coordinated response to the spread of 2009 H1N1 influenza and future pandemic threats. For example, members of the Middle East Consortium on Infectious Disease Surveillance (MECIDS), a regional disease surveillance network of public health experts and ministry of health officials from Israel, the Palestinian Authority, and Jordan, have coordinated the screening, laboratory testing, and risk communication strategies to detect and control 2009 H1N1 influenza. This coordination is made possible by trust and by well-exercised national and regional pandemic preparedness policies. The consortium illustrates the value of regional disease surveillance networks in shaping and managing cohesive policies on current and future threats. The MECIDS alliance partnership also exemplifies to other parts of the world that are experiencing conflict-like South Asia-that finding common ground is imperative to promoting health security and cooperation where it is most lacking and needed and that developing cohesive infectious disease control policies can build trust across the most difficult boundaries in the world. This article provides an overview of the history of MECIDS and similar networks and of the MECIDS response to 2009 H1N1 influenza.

AB This report describes the state of the California Current system (CCS) between the springs of 2008 and 2009 based on observations taken along the west coast of North America The dominant forcing on the CCS during this time period were La Nina-type conditions that prevailed from the summer of 2007 through early 2009, transitioning to neutral El Nino-Southern Oscillation conditions in the spring of 2009 The Pacific Decadal Oscillation index was negative during this time period and its values had not returned to normal by the spring of 2009 The general effects on the California Current system were stronger thin normal southward winds and upwelling as well as generally colder than normal SST and shallow nitraclines, however, there were repot-ill differences Off alp California sea surface temperatures did not respond to the La Nina conditions, however, concentrations of chlorophyll a (Chl a) were significantly above normal, probably due to the anomalously high upwelling off Baja during most of the year Off southern California there was no clear evidence of increased primary or secondary production, despite observations that previous La Nina conditions affected mixed layer depth, temperatures, nutrients, and nitracline depths In both central and northern California and Oregon, stronger than normal upwelling increased primary production and prevented potential spawning of sardine north of San Francisco In central California the midwater fish community resembled that of recent cool years, and cover by kelp was much reduced along the coast Off Oregon there was evidence of increased abundance of boreal copepods, although the neritic boreal species did not appear to extend as far south is central California Current predictions are for cooler conditions to change to El Nino conditions by the end of 2009, these are expected to last through the Northern Hemisphere wintet of 2009-10

AB This paper examines the interplay of the effect of cross immunity and antibody-dependent enhancement (ADE) in multistrain diseases. Motivated by dengue fever, we study a model for the spreading of epidemics in a population with multistrain interactions mediated by both partial temporary cross immunity and ADE. Although ADE models have previously been observed to cause chaotic outbreaks, we show analytically that weak cross immunity has a stabilizing effect on the system. That is, the onset of disease fluctuations requires a larger value of ADE with small cross immunity than without. However, strong cross immunity is shown numerically to cause oscillations and chaotic outbreaks even for low values of ADE. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3270261]

AB We consider a stochastic susceptible-exposed-infected-recovered (SIER) epidemiological model. Through the use of a normal form coordinate transform, we are able to analytically derive the stochastic center manifold along with the associated, reduced set of stochastic evolution equations. The transformation correctly projects both the dynamics and the noise onto the center manifold. Therefore, the solution of this reduced stochastic dynamical system yields excellent agreement, both in amplitude and phase, with the solution of the original stochastic system for a temporal scale that is orders of magnitude longer than the typical relaxation time. This new method allows for improved time series prediction of the number of infectious cases when modeling the spread of disease in a population. Numerical solutions of the fluctuations of the SEIR model are considered in the infinite population limit using a Langevin equation approach, as well as in a finite population simulated as a Markov process.

AB For a nontrivial connected graph G, let c: V (G) -> a"center dot be a vertex coloring of G where adjacent vertices may be colored the same. For a vertex v of G, the neighborhood color set NC(v) is the set of colors of the neighbors of v. The coloring c is called a set coloring if NC(u) not equal NC(v) for every pair u, v of adjacent vertices of G. The minimum number of colors required of such a coloring is called the set chromatic number x (s) (G). A study is made of the set chromatic number of the join G+H of two graphs G and H. Sharp lower and upper bounds are established for x (s) (G + H) in terms of x (s) (G), x (s) (H), and the clique numbers omega(G) and omega(H).

AB In this paper, an analytical expression is developed for the differential entropy of a sinusoid with a Beta-distributed phase angle. This particular signal model is prevalent in optical communications, however an expression for the associated differential entropy does not currently exist. The expression we derive is approximate as it relies on a series expansion for one of the key terms needed in the derivation. However, we are able to show that the approximation is accurate (error <= 5%) for a wide variety of Beta parameter choices.

AB The California Encephalitis Project (CEP), established in 1998 to explore encephalitic etiologies, has identified patients with N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor (NMDAR) antibodies, the likely etiology of their encephalitis. This study compares the presentation of such patients to those with viral encephalitis, so that infectious disease clinicians may identify individuals with this treatable disorder. Patients were physician-referred, and standardized forms were used to gather demographic, clinical, and laboratory data. Features of anti-NMDAR+ patients were compared with the viral encephalitides of enteroviral (EV), rabies, and herpes simplex-1 (HSV-1) origins. Sixteen cases with confirmed viral etiologies were all negative on NMDAR antibody testing. Ten anti-NMDAR+ patients were profiled with a median age of 18.5 years (range 11-31 years). None were Caucasian. They had a characteristic progression with prominent psychiatric symptoms, autonomic instability, significant neurologic abnormalities, and seizures. Two had a teratoma, and, of the remaining eight, four had serologic evidence of acute Mycoplasma infection. The clinical and imaging features of anti-NMDAR+ patients served to differentiate this autoimmune disorder from HSV-1, EV, and rabies. Unlike classic paraneoplastic encephalitis, anti-NMDAR encephalitis affects younger patients and is often treatable. The association of NMDAR antibodies in patients with possible Mycoplasma pneumoniae infection warrants further study.

AB Implanted intraocular microelectrode arrays are being used to provide sight to individuals who are blind due to photoreceptor degeneration. it is envisioned that this retinal prosthesis will create the illusion of motion by stimulating focal areas of the retina in a sequential fashion through neighboring electrodes, much like the rapid succession of still images in movies and computer animation gives rise to apparent motion. Using a high-density microelectrode array, we examined the extracellularly recorded responses of rabbit retinal ganglion cells to a bar-shaped electrode array that was stepped at 50 gm increments at different rates across the retina and compared these respons2es to the responses generated to a similarly shaped light stimulus that was stepped across the retina. When the retina was stimulated at 1 step/s, retinal ganglion cells gave robust bursts of action potentials to both the electrode array and the light stimulus. The responses to the 'moving' electrode array decreased progressively with increasing stepping frequency. At 16 steps/s (highest frequency tested), the number of spikes per sweep and the number of bursts per sweep were reduced 75% and 67% respectively. In contrast, when the retina was stimulated at 16 steps/s with the 'moving' light stimulus, the number of spikes per sweep and the number of bursts per sweep were reduced only 43% and 25% respectively. These findings suggest that simple translation of object motion to sequential stimulation through neighboring electrodes may not be the best way to convey the perception of object motion in a patient with a retinal prosthesis.

AB The herpetofauna of the Baja California Peninsula represent a unique assemblage of the biodiversity and heritage of Mexico. Pressure from increasing development and land conversion of the second longest peninsula in the world, and its islands, requires a modern synthesis of the conservation status of the herpetofauna. Herein, we evaluate the herpetofauna by assessing regulatory protections, natural protected land areas, and maintenance of ex situ species in accredited zoos. We also summarize recent changes to the taxonomy and nomenclature for this herpetofauna, as well as range extensions that further our understanding of species distributions, many of which are poorly understood. Recommendations are given to enhance and further strengthen conservation actions in Baja California, Mexico.

AB The propagation of energetic electrons from the focal spots of intense picosecond laser pulses was studied using targets consisting of planar foils and fine metal wires. High-resolution K-shell spectra of elements with atomic numbers in the range 46-74 (Pd to W) and with energies from 21 key to 69 key were recorded by a Cauchois-type spectrometer using a curved transmission crystal. The K-shell spectra resulted from the collisional ionization of 1 s electrons by energetic electrons that were generated in the laser focal spot and propagated into the planar foil region beyond the focal spot or into the metal wires adjacent to an irradiated wire. The lateral spread of the energetic electrons from the focal spot was determined from the source broadening of the K spectral lines and from the relative intensities of the K spectra from an irradiated wire and neighboring wires of different metals. The propagation distances up to 1 mm in a variety of materials indicated electron energies up to 1 MeV were generated in the laser focal spot. Inhibited propagation in an electrically insulating material was observed that results from a weak return current and incomplete space charge neutralization. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB In 1993, we proposed the RADIOM model [M. Busquet, Phys. Fluids 85 (1993) 4191] where an ionization temperature T(Z) is used to derive non-LIE properties from LTE data. T(Z) is obtained from an "extended Saha equation" where unbalanced transitions, like radiative decay, give the non-LTE behavior. Since then, major improvements have been made. T(Z) has been shown to be more than a heuristic value, but describes the actual distribution of excited and ionized states and can be understood as an "effective temperature". Therefore we complement the extended Saha equation by introducing explicitly the auto-ionization/dielectronic capture. Also we use the SCROLL model to benchmark the computed values of T(Z).

AB A novel device structure incorporating an ultrathin AlGaN barrier layer capped by an AlN layer in the source-drain access regions has been implemented to reliably control threshold voltage in AlGaN/GaN high-electron-mobility transistors. A recessed-gate structure has been used to decrease 2-D electron gas (2DEG) density under the gate, thus controlling threshold voltage while maintaining low on-resistance and high current density. The structure presented in this letter implements an ultrathin AlGaN structure grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition capped with AlN to maintain a high 2DEG density in the access regions. A selective wet etch using heated photoresist developer is used to selectively etch the AlN layer in the gate region to the AlGaN barrier. We have demonstrated a repeatable threshold voltage of +0.21 V with 4-nm AlGaN barrier layer thickness.

AB A stochastic non-line-of-sight (NLOS) ultraviolet (UV) communication channel model is developed using a Monte Carlo simulation method based on photon tracing. The expected channel impulse response is obtained by computing photon arrival probabilities and associated propagation delay at the receiver. This method captures the multiple scattering effects of UV signal propagation in the atmosphere, and relaxes the assumptions of single scattering theory. The proposed model has a clear advantage in reliable prediction of NLOS path loss, as validated by outdoor experiments at small to medium elevation angles. A Gamma function is shown to agree well with the predicted impulse response, and this provides a simple means to determine the channel bandwidth. The developed model is employed to study the characteristics of NLOS UV scattering channels, including path loss and channel bandwidth, for a variety of scattering conditions, source wavelength, transmitter and receiver optical pointing geometries, and range.

DE Ultrawideband (UWB) antenna arrays
AB A design concept is presented that achieves ultra-wideband (UWB) array performance with significantly fewer elements than the traditional approach of using a single wideband antenna element type to fully populate the array. Starting from a conventional 8: 1 bandwidth array design of a given aperture size, an array of equivalent aperture and bandwidth is created using scaled elements of three different sizes. This wavelength-scaled equivalent array has fewer than 18% of the original element count, i.e., roughly 6-times fewer elements, a similar reduction in weight, and most importantly, a significant reduction in electronics required to feed the array. If proven viable, array architectures of this type could make UWB arrays significantly more cost effective. In this preliminary numerical study, rigorous full-wave simulation tools are used to test the performance of small but informative wavelength-scaled array configurations of flared-notch radiators for the single-polarization case.

ID SYSTEM
AB Iris recognition is one of the most accurate biometric methods in use today. However, the iris recognition algorithms are currently implemented on general purpose sequential processing systems, such as generic central processing units (CPUs). In this work, we present a more direct and parallel processing alternative using field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), offering an opportunity to increase speed and potentially alter the form factor of the resulting system. Within the means of this project, the most time-consuming operations of a modern iris recognition algorithm are deconstructed and directly parallelized. In particular, portions of iris segmentation, template creation, and template matching are parallelized on an FPGA-based system, with a demonstrated speedup of 9.6, 324, and 19 times, respectively, when compared to a state-of-the-art CPU-based version. Furthermore, the parallel algorithm on our FPGA also greatly outperforms our calculated theoretical best Intel CPU design. Finally, on a state-of-the-art FPGA, we conclude that a full implementation of a very fast iris recognition algorithm is more than feasible, providing a potential small form-factor solution.

AB An analytical model is developed to calculate the single-event transient (SET) pulse widths in advanced silicon-on-insulator (SOI) CMOS logic. Waveform analysis reveals that the width of the pulses is large enough to exhibit rail-to-rail trapezoidal waveforms, which are a typical shape for SET pulses in SOI CMOS logic irradiated by ions hitting the center of MOS gates at normal incidence, consisting of two time components. Based on their physical mechanisms, they are modeled as functions of the irradiation and device parameters. The widths and their trends predicted by the model are in good agreement with numerical device simulations and pulsed-laser experimental results.

AB We present results of laser-induced analog SETs at elevated temperatures. We found increasing pulse widths with increasing temperature for the LM124. We also observed increasing pulse amplitudes with increasing temperature for several sensitive transistors in the LM139. However the response from the input transistor was a rapidly shrinking SET, suggesting that the SET threshold increases at elevated temperatures for the input stage transistors. In addition we observed increases in the SET leading edge fall times with increasing temperature for the LM139 that are consistent with independently measured slew rates. Simulations revealed that the dominant mechanism is bipolar current gain enhancement at elevated temperatures. These temperature-induced changes to the SETs may have critical implications for radiation hardness assurance.

AB Laser-induced current transients are measured on uniaxially stressed silicon (Si) N+/P diodes using a high speed measurement system. Controlled external mechanical stress along the < 110 > direction is applied via a four-point bending jig while the samples are irradiated using a cavity-dumped dye laser with a wavelength of 590 nm. A decrease in the peak current is observed for increasing tensile stress applied to the diode. Unlike tensile stress, compressive stress increases the peak current. Charge collection is observed to decrease with tensile and increase with compressive stress. These results suggest that uniaxial mechanical stress alters the current transients due to strain-induced changes in electron mobility along the < 001 > direction. The average effective electron mass along the < 001 > direction increases with tensile and decreases with compressive stress resulting from the splitting of degenerate conduction band valleys and the repopulation of electrons from higher to lower valleys. The Florida object oriented device simulator (FLOODS) is used to explain the mechanism of current transients in unstressed and stressed diodes. FLOODS is also used to predict results for values of applied stress (similar to 1 GPa) beyond those that can be obtained using the bending jig (similar to 240 MPa).

AB Total ionizing dose experiments showed an increase in operating frequency (and therefore, power consumption) in bulk CMOS ring oscillators when operated at ultra-low power supply voltages. Combined-environment experiments showed the single-event susceptibility of ULP circuits increases with total dose exposure. To operate ULP circuits in a total dose environment and ensure there is little change in their circuit characteristics, the supply voltage should be greater than 400 mV.

AB One-MeV proton irradiation of antimonide superlattice infrared detectors intended for use in space decreases the quantum efficiency, increases leakage and decreases the activation energy for carrier diffusion. Still, the devices show high radiation tolerance: The fluence at which noticable degradation is observed, 5 X 10(11) H(+)/cm(2), is equivalent to about 1 Mrad(Si).

AB Effects of ionizing radiation on single event transients are reported for Fully Depleted SOI (FDSOI) technology using experiments and simulations. Logic circuits, i.e. CMOS inverter chains, were irradiated with cobalt-60 gamma radiation. When charge is induced in the n-channel FET with laser-probing techniques, laser-induced transients widen with increased total dose. This is because radiation causes charge to be trapped in the buried oxide, and reduces the p-channel FET drive current. When the p-channel FET drive current is reduced, the time required to restore the output of the laser-probed FET back to its original condition is increased, i.e. the upset transient width is increased. A widening of the transient pulse is also observed when a positive bias is applied to the wafer without any exposure to radiation. This is because a positive wafer bias reproduces the shifts in FET threshold voltages that occur during total dose irradiation. Results were also verified with heavy ion testing and mixed mode simulations.

AB We report on the design and estimated performance of a balloon-borne hard X-ray polarimeter called HX-POL. The experiment uses a combination of Si and Cadmium Zinc Telluride detectors to measure the polarization of 50 keV-400 keV X-rays from cosmic sources through the dependence of the angular distribution of Compton scattered photons on the polarization direction. On a one-day balloon flight, HX-POL would allow us to measure the polarization of bright Crab-like sources for polarization degrees well below 10%. On a longer (15-30 day) flight from Australia or Antarctica, HX-POL would be be able to measure the polarization of bright galactic X-ray sources down to polarization degrees of a few percent. Hard X-ray polarization measurements provide unique venues for the study of particle acceleration processes by compact objects and relativistic outflows. In this paper, we discuss the overall instrument design and performance. Furthermore, we present results from laboratory tests of the Si and CZT detectors.

AB The use of a compact solid-state pulse generator and compact igniters for transient plasma ignition in a pulse detonation engine (PDE) is reported and compared with previous results using a pseudospark pulse generator and threaded rod electrode. Transient plasma is attractive as a technology for the ignition of PDEs and other engine applications because it results in reductions in ignition delay and has been shown to ignite leaner mixtures which allows for lower specific fuel consumption, high-repetition rates, high-altitude operation, and reduced NOx emissions. It has been applied effectively to the ignition of PDEs as well as internal combustion engines. Nonequilibrium transient plasma discharges are produced by applying high-voltage nanosecond pulses that generate streamers, which generate radicals and other electronically excited species over a volume. The pulse generator used is in this experiment is capable of delivering 180 mJ into a 200-Omega load, in the form of a 60-kV 12-ns pulse. Combined with transient plasma igniters comparable with traditional spark plugs, the system was successfully tested in a PDE, resulting in similar ignition delays to those previously reported while using a smaller electrode geometry and delivering an order of magnitude less energy.

DT Article
DE Electromagnetic launching; linear motors; railguns
AB Properly designed augmented railguns (ARGs) can operate at significantly lower currents and higher efficiency than conventional non-ARGs. This paper analyzes the performance of a two-turn and a three-turn ARG showing the design parameters that are needed to achieve low-current high-efficiency operation. The ARG of this paper has a 40-mm square bore and is 820 mm long. Typical operating currents are from 150 to 300 kA with pulsewidths of approximately 6 to 8 ms. Projectile mass is typically in the range of 130 to 400 g. Projectile velocity is variable from 50 to 250 m/s. Experimental performance is compared with the theoretical predictions of the recently developed electromagnetic launcher (EML) equation. There is a good agreement between measured efficiency and theoretical predictions providing further confirmation of the EML equation. Deviations between measured efficiency and theoretical predictions are attributed to a poor sliding contact. The data also provide further evidence of the recently reported velocity-skin-effect in the contact.

AB The experimental and numerical work presented in this paper reveals that stress state has strong effects on both the plastic response and the ductile fracture behavior of an aluminum 5083 alloy. As a result, the hydrostatic stress and the third invariant of the stress deviator (which is related to the Lode angle) need to be incorporated in the material modeling. These findings challenge the classical J(2) plasticity theory and provide a blueprint for the establishment of the stress state dependent plasticity and ductile fracture models for aluminum structural reliability assessments. Further investigations are planned to advance, calibrate and validate the new plasticity and ductile fracture models. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Theoretical strategy for choosing piggyback intraocular lens powers in
young children
SO JOURNAL OF AAPOS
LA English
DT Article
ID CHILDHOOD; CATARACT
AB INTRODUCTION The normal growth of a young child's pseudophakic eye can result in a large myopic shift. Temporary polypseudophakia using piggyback intraocular lenses (IOLs) has been proposed as a means to reduce the amount of myopic shift by removing the anterior IOL when the eve becomes sufficiently myopic. Since the rate of refractive growth can be used to predict the refractive curve over time in pseudophakic children, we used this knowledge to develop a theoretical strategy for choosing IOL power combinations for temporary polypseudophakia.
METHODS We used a novel Pediatric Piggyback IOL Calculator to develop a strategy for choosing the powers of the anterior and posterior IOLs. We graphed the predicted results for several combinations of piggyback IOL powers and chose the combination of IOL powers that appeared to give the best results, based on the known rate of refractive growth (5.4 D) and its standard deviation (2.4 D). We aimed for a combination to minimize the hyperopic or myopic refractive error during the first 6 years of life to facilitate amblyopia management and minimize the refractive error at age 20 years.
RESULTS We found optimal results when the initial postoperative goal refraction with polypseudophakia was moderate hyperopia and the anterior IOL had approximately 20% of the total required IOL power.

AB Magnetotransport measurements in pulsed fields up to 15 T have been performed on mercury cadmium telluride (Hg(1-x)Cd(x)Te, x similar to 0.2) bulk as well as liquid phase epitaxially grown samples to obtain the resistivity and conductivity tensors in the temperature range 220-300 K. Mobilities and densities of various carriers participating in conduction have been extracted using both conventional multicarrier fitting (MCF) and mobility spectrum analysis. The fits to experimental data, particularly at the highest magnetic fields, were substantially improved when MCF is applied to minimize errors simultaneously on both resistivity and conductivity tensors. The semiclassical Boltzmann transport equation has been solved without using adjustable parameters by incorporating the following scattering mechanisms to fit the mobility: ionized impurity, polar and nonpolar optical phonons, acoustic deformation potential, and alloy disorder. Compared to previous estimates based on the relaxation time approximation with outscattering only, polar optical scattering and ionized impurity scattering limited mobilities are shown to be larger due to the correct incorporation of the inscattering term taking into account the overlap integrals in the valence band.

ID RESOLUTION DOPPLER LIDAR; DYNAMICS; TERRAIN; ROTOR; FLOW
AB A method is presented to compute the spanwise vorticity in polar coordinates from 2D vertical cross sections of high-resolution line-of-sight Doppler wind lidar observations. The method uses the continuity equation to derive the velocity component perpendicular to the observed line-of-sight velocity, which then yields the spanwise vorticity component. The results of the method are tested using a ground-based Doppler lidar, which was deployed during the Terrain-Induced Rotor Experiment (T-REX). The resulting fields can be used to identify and quantify the strength and size of vortices, such as those associated with atmospheric rotors. Furthermore, they may serve to investigate the dynamics and evolution of vortices and to evaluate numerical simulations. A demonstration of the method and comparison with high-resolution numerical simulations reveals that the derived vorticity can explain 66% of the mean-square vorticity fluctuations, has a reasonably skillful magnitude, exhibits no significant bias, and is in qualitative agreement with model-derived vorticity.

AB Background: Symptomatic pan-labral or circumferential (360 degrees) tears of the glenohumeral labrum are an uncommon injury. The purpose of the present study was to report the results of surgical treatment of circumferential lesions of the glenoid labrum with use of validated outcome instruments.
Methods: From July 2003 to May 2006, forty-one shoulders in thirty-nine patients (thirty-four men and five women) with a mean age of 25.1 years were prospectively enrolled in a multicenter study and were managed for a circumferential (360 degrees) lesion of the glenoid labrum. All patients had a primary diagnosis of pain and recurrent shoulder instability, and all underwent arthroscopic repair of the circumferential labral tear with a mean of 7.1 suture anchors. The outcomes for thirty-nine of the forty-one shoulders were assessed after a mean duration of follow-up of 31.8 months on the basis of the rating of pain and instability on a scale of 0 to 10, a physical examination, and three outcome instruments (the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score, the modified American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, and the Short Form-12 score).
Results: Significant improvement was noted in terms of the mean pain score (from 4.3 to 1.1), the mean instability score (from 7.3 to 0.2), the mean modified American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score (from 55.5 to 89.6), the mean Short Form-12 score (from 75.7 to 90.0), and the mean Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score (from 36.7 to 88.5). Six shoulders required revision surgery because of recurrent instability (two), recalcitrant biceps tendinitis (two), or postoperative tightness (two). All patients returned to their preinjury activity level.
Conclusions: Pan-labral or circumferential lesions are an uncommon yet extensive injury of the glenohumeral joint that may result in recurrent instability and pain. The present study demonstrates that arthroscopic capsulolabral repair with suture anchor fixation can restore the stability of the glenohumeral joint and can provide a reliable improvement in subjective and objective outcome measures.

AB Malnutrition and infectious disease represent the most common health threats facing the developing world. However, increasing technological developments and the expansion of western culture have contributed to the increasing prevalence of the metabolic syndrome. The epidemiologic significance and potential costs to governmental health care systems of an increasing incidence of metabolic syndrome could become high. The role of environmental influences that lead to the development of the metabolic syndrome needs to be explored. Because the metabolic syndrome becomes more common as nations develop, investigations into the ramifications of this disease often come too late.

The computational domain is extended to include the regions occupied by the inhomogeneities through replacing the boundaries with properly chosen sources. The solution corresponding to Dirichlet boundary conditions on the inhomogeneities is presented.

AB Attenuation which is linear in frequency (as opposed to quadratic as for laminar viscosity) occurs in porous media wave propagation and biomedical applications. Straight forward use of Fourier transforms, for frequency-linear attenuation violates causality. We give a causal time domain algorithm with numerical stability criteria and verify its accuracy. For acoustic wave propagation in ocean sediment, the algorithm results in a mild increase of phase speed with frequency as a result of the Kramers-Kronig relation. The algorithm gives results in good agreement with in situ data for sandy sediment.

Generation Thermal Interface Material Applications
SO JOURNAL OF ELECTRONIC MATERIALS

DE Liquid phase sintering; lead-free solder; thermal interface material;
indium
ID SN; COMPOSITE
AB Because of their high thermal conductivity (K), low melting point (T (m)), and low shear strength, indium-based materials are excellent candidates for thermal interface material (TIM) applications. However, high In-content solders are expensive and possess low compressive creep strength, which may lead to structural instability following heat-sink attachment. Here, a radically different approach for producing microelectronic solder TIMs based on liquid phase sintering (LPS) is presented, which not only addresses the above problems, but also paves the way for the development of solder TIMs with even higher K than that of In for next generation packages. LPS Sn-In solders, the microstructure of which consists of particles of the high melting phase (HMP) Sn and a smaller amount of intergranular low melting phase (LMP) In, were processed and characterized. Flow stresses close to that of pure In, and electrical/thermal conductivities approximately half that of pure In, were obtained. LPS solder joints between Cu substrates were produced via a single step process combining LPS with joining. The contact thermal resistance of the internal grain boundaries was estimated, and it is inferred that, because of the numerous internal boundaries, the solder/substrate interfaces have a rela- tively small effect on the joint resistance. Based on the estimated boundary resistance, a previously developed model was utilized to predict the thermal conductivity of the LPS solder as a function of HMP type, volume fraction, and particle size. Preliminary results for LPS solders with Cu as the HMP phase are also presented.

AB Introduction: The purpose of this in-depth investigation was to identify, clarify, and substantiate clinical terminology relative to apical/periapical/periradicular diagnostic states, which is used routinely in the provision of endodontic care. Furthermore, the information gleaned from this investigation was used to link diagnostic categories to symptoms, pathogenesis, treatment and prognosis wherever possible, along with establishing the basis for the metrics used in this diagnostic process. Materials and Methods: Diagnostic terminologies and their relevance to clinical situations were procured from extensive historic and electronic searches and correlated with contemporary concepts in disease processes, clinical assessments, histologic findings (if appropriate), and standardized definitions that have been promulgated and promoted for use in the last 25 years in educational programs and test constructions and for third-party concerns. Results: In general, clinical terminology that is used routinely in the practice of endodontics is not based on the findings of scientific investigations. The diagnostic terms are based on assumptions by correlating certain signs, symptoms, and radiographic findings with what is presumed (not proven) to be the underlying disease process of a given clinical state. There were no studies that specifically tried to assess the accuracy of the metrics used contemporarily for the classification of clinical disease states. Conclusion: A succinct diagnostic scheme that could be described thoroughly, agreed on unanimously, coded succinctly for easy electronic input, and ultimately used for follow-up analysis would not only drive treatment modalities more accurately, but would also allow for future outcomes assessment and validation.

AB Parameter optimization is an excellent path for easily raising the resolution efficiency of compact finite differencing schemes. Their low-resolution errors are attractive for resolving the fine-scale turbulent physics even in complex flow domains with difficult boundary conditions. Most schemes require optimizing closure stencils at and adjacent to the domain boundaries. But these constituents can potentially degrade the local resolution errors and destabilize the final solution scheme. Current practices optimize and analyze each participating stencil separately, which incorrectly quantifies their local resolution errors. The proposed process optimizes each participant simultaneously. The result is a composite template that owns consistent spatial resolution properties throughout the entire computational domain. Additionally, the optimization technique leads to templates that are numerically stable as understood by an eigenvalue analysis. Finally, the predictive accuracy of the optimized schemes are evaluated using four canonical test problems that involve resolving linear convection, nonlinear Burger wave, turbulence along a flat plate, and circular cylinder wall pressure.

AB Durable control of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) replication and lack of disease progression in the absence of antiretroviral therapy were studied in a military cohort of 4586 subjects. We examined groups of elite controllers (ie, subjects with plasma HIV RNA levels of <50 copies/mL; prevalence, 0.55% [95% confidence interval{CI}, 0.35%-0.80%]), viremic controllers ( ie, subjects with plasma HIV RNA levels of 50-2000 copies/mL; prevalence, 3.34% [ 95% CI, 2.83%-3.91%]), and subjects with a lack of disease progression ( ie, long-term nonprogressors [LTNPs]) through 7 years of follow-up (LTNP7s; prevalence, 3.32% [ 95% CI, 2.70%-4.01%]) or 10 years of follow-up (LTNP10s; prevalence, 2.04% [ 95% CI, 1.52%-2.68%]). For elite and viremic controllers, spontaneous virologic control was established early and was typically observed when the initial viral load measurement was obtained within 1 year of estimated seroconversion. Elite controllers had favorable time to development of AIDS (P = .048), a CD4 cell count of 350 cells/mu L (P = .009), and more-stable CD4 cell trends, compared with viremic controllers. LTNPs defined by 10-year versus 7-year criteria had a longer survival time (P = .001), even after adjustment for differing periods of invulnerability (P = .042). Definitions of controllers and LTNPs describe distinct populations whose differing clinical outcomes improve with the stringency of criteria, underscoring the need for comparability between study populations.

We describe a frequency selective surface which is patterned on two distinct length scales; a smaller scale that exhibits the patterning of a traditional frequency selective surface, and a larger scale that exhibits the structure of a Fresnel zone plate. We demonstrate that laser direct-write is an ideal tool for the rapid prototyping of such spatially varying or aperiodic electromagnetic structures. We present experimental results for the electromagnetic characterization of a prototype frequency selective lens fabricated using non-lithographic, laser processing.

AB Many collective classification (CC) algorithms have been shown to increase accuracy when instances are interrelated. However, CC algorithms must be carefully applied because their use of estimated labels can in some cases decrease accuracy. In this article, we show that managing this label uncertainty through cautious algorithmic behavior is essential to achieving maximal, robust performance. First, we describe cautious inference and explain how four well-known families of CC algorithms can be parameterized to use varying degrees of such caution. Second, we introduce cautious learning and show how it can be used to improve the performance of almost any CC algorithm, with or without cautious inference. We then evaluate cautious inference and learning for the four collective inference families, with three local classifiers and a range of both synthetic and real-world data. We find that cautious learning and cautious inference typically outperform less cautious approaches. In addition, we identify the data characteristics that predict more substantial performance differences. Our results reveal that the degree of caution used usually has a larger impact on performance than the choice of the underlying inference algorithm. Together, these results identify the most appropriate CC algorithms to use for particular task characteristics and explain multiple conflicting findings from prior CC research.

ID HEAT-CONDUCTION; WELDS; MODEL
AB General basis functions for parametric representation of energy deposition processes are constructed according to the general physical characteristics of energy deposition within a volume of material from a beam energy source. These basis functions include previously constructed source functions as special cases. The construction of a general parameterization of energy deposition processes, e.g., welding and rapid prototyping, is necessary for inverse analysis of such processes. The structure of such a parameterization follows from the concepts of model and data spaces that imply the existence of an optimal parametric representation for a given class of inverse problems. Accordingly, the optimal parametric representation lying within the model space is determined by the characteristics of the available data, i.e., data space, which contain both experimental measurements and numerical simulation data. Experimental measurements include solidification cross-sections, thermocouple measurements, and microstructural changes. Numerical simulation data include general temperature field trend characteristics, response characteristics of materials to volumetric energy deposition, and the relative sensitivity of temperature field characteristics to phenomena occurring on different space and time scales. A general procedure is described for using basis functions with the available experimental and numerical data to construct a multidimensional field representation of a large class of energy deposition processes.

DE acoustic wave scattering; echo; underwater sound
AB Laboratory underwater bistatic scattering measurements are reported for free, proud, and half-buried unexploded ordnances for 0 degrees and 90 degrees source angles. Forward echoes are larger than backscattered returns, and half burial significantly decreases the latter but not the former. Results agree with analytic predictions borrowed from radar. The forward echo and source signal are separated by measurements made with and without the target, a method not possible in a target search. For this, a method is described that uses knowledge of the source location and the hyperbolic character in time-cross range of the signals received at points along a line.

Samplers included horizontally stretched stationary cotton ribbons at 2 heights, rotating ribbon. rotating Teflon slides, and filter paper. Slides were also used for droplet-size analysis. A set of 7 samplers of each type was placed at 1, 7, 15, 25, 40 65, and 90 in from the spray line along the spray swath. Water and BVA13 oil with fluorescent dyes as tracers were sprayed with the use of a truck-mounted ULV sprayer at dusk and dawn. Results suggest that the horizontal and rotating cotton ribbons are best for quantification of airborne spray and filter paper is best for ground deposition collection. The rotating slide samplers only detected the BVA13 oil-based sprays.

AB To understand the radiative impact of tropical thin cirrus clouds, the frequency of occurrence and optical depths of these clouds have been derived. "Thin'' cirrus clouds are defined here as being those that are not detected by the operational Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) cloud mask, corresponding to an optical depth value of approximately 0.3 or smaller, but that are detectable in terms of the cirrus reflectance product based on the MODIS 1.375-mu m channel. With such a definition, thin cirrus clouds were present in more than 40% of the pixels flagged as "clear sky'' by the operational MODIS cloud mask algorithm. It is shown that these thin cirrus clouds are frequently observed in deep convective regions in the western Pacific. Thin cirrus optical depths were derived from the cirrus reflectance product. Regions of significant cloud fraction and large optical depths were observed in the Northern Hemisphere during the boreal spring and summer and moved southward during the boreal autumn and winter. The radiative effects of tropical thin cirrus clouds were studied on the basis of the retrieved cirrus optical depths, the atmospheric profiles derived from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) observations, and a radiative transfer model in conjunction with a parameterization of ice cloud spectral optical properties. To understand how these clouds regulate the radiation field in the atmosphere, the instantaneous net fluxes at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) and at the surface were calculated. The present study shows positive and negative net forcings at the TOA and at the surface, respectively. The positive (negative) net forcing at the TOA (surface) is due to the dominance of longwave (shortwave) forcing. Both the TOA and surface forcings are in a range of 0-20 W m(-2), depending on the optical depths of thin cirrus clouds.

AB Osteochondral autograft transfer is a technique for treatment of traumatic and degenerative cartilage lesions. A graft in which the cartilage cap is oriented perpendicular to the long axis of the graft is ideal because it can both restore the cartilage tidemark and minimize articular step-off at the recipient site. This study determines if osteochondral harvest technique (arthroscopic versus mini-open) or donor site location affects suitable graft harvest. One hundred and twenty eight osteochondral grafts were harvested in 16 cadaver knees utilizing a 7 mm OATS chisel from four donor sites: lateral supracondylar ridge, lateral femoral condyle, lateral intercondylar notch and medial femoral condyle. Mini-open and arthroscopic harvesting techniques were equally employed. Radiographic methods were used to analyze graft perpendicularity. Statistical analysis comparing graft suitability based on technique and donor site location was performed. There were no statistically significant differences (p>0.05) in graft suitability regardless of the technique used or donor site location. 69% of arthroscopic and 56% of mini-open graft harvest were considered suitable, possessing a cartilage cap and graft axis angle that would create less than I mm of articular incongruity. Incongruity results when the angle between the subchondral bone plug long axis and cartilage interface is greater than 74 degrees. There is no difference in the quality of osteochondral grafts harvested from the knee regardless of technique or donor site used. Osteochondral graft diameter should be kept at or less than 7 mm because of the high percentage of unacceptable grafts with increasing chisel sizes. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB A novel imaging technique is described in which the mode conversion of longitudinal waves is used for the qualitative detection of stiff lesions within soft tissue using magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) methods. Due to the viscoelastic nature of tissue, high-frequency shear waves attenuate rapidly in soft tissues but much less in stiff tissues. By introducing minimally-attenuating longitudinal waves at a significantly high frequency into tissue, shear waves produced at interfaces by mode conversion will be detectable in stiff regions, but will be significantly attenuated and thus not detectable in the surrounding soft tissue. This contrast can be used to detect the presence of stiff tissue. The proposed technique is shown to readily depict hard regions (mimicking tumors) present in tissue-simulating phantoms and ex vivo breast tissue. In vivo feasibility is demonstrated on a patient with liver metastases in whom the tumors are readily distinguished. Preliminary evidence also suggests that quantitative stiffness measurements of stiff regions obtained with this technique are more accurate than those from conventional MRE because of the short shear wavelengths. This rapid, qualitative technique may lend itself to applications in which the localization of stiff, suspicious neoplasms is coupled with more sensitive techniques for thorough characterization.

AB Magnetic resonance elastography is a noninvasive imaging technique capable of quantifying and spatially resolving the shear stiffness of soft tissues by visualization of synchronized mechanical wave displacement fields. However, magnetic resonance elastography inversions generally assume that the measured tissue motion consists primarily of shear waves propagating in a uniform, infinite medium. This assumption is not valid in organs such as the heart, eye, bladder, skin, fascia, bone and spinal cord, in which the shear wavelength approaches the geometric dimensions of the object. The aim of this study was to develop and test mathematical inversion algorithms capable of resolving shear stiffness from displacement maps of flexural waves propagating in bounded media such as beams, plates, and spherical shells, using geometry-specific equations of motion. Magnetic resonance elastography and finite element modeling of beam, plate, and spherical shell phantoms of various geometries were performed. Mechanical testing of the phantoms agreed with the stiffness values obtained from finite element modeling and magnetic resonance elastography data, and a linear correlation of r(2) >= 0.99 was observed between the stiffness values obtained using magnetic resonance elastography and finite element modeling data. In conclusion, we have demonstrated new inversion methods for calculating shear stiffness that may be more appropriate for waves propagating in bounded media. Magn Reson Med 62: 1533-1542, 2009.

AB This paper studies the effect of an internal control problem on a firm's disclosure policy where firms compete in non-cooperative investment game, with each firm deciding to invest in its current technology or to invest in a non-proprietary innovation. By adopting the innovation, a firm earns higher revenues at the expense of its non-adopting rival. Each principal decides on a disclosure policy for its firm that entails releasing an agent's internal cost report of the firm's current technology to the rival firm. The agent has private information about the current technology's cost and an incentive to overstate the cost. An effect of disclosures is to increase coordination between the firms, which, without a control problem, increases firm profits. However, under the same conditions that disclosures were beneficial without the control problem, disclosures may be harmful to the principal with the control problem because increased coordination between the firms allows the agent to earn higher rents. Competition substitutes for commitment to an investment policy that limits the agent's rents and this disciplining role of competition is diminished with disclosures. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Accurate modeling of pulse propagation and scattering in dispersive medium is a problem in many disciplines (i.e. electromagnetics and acoustics). The inclusion of an additional term in the wave equation (the derivative of the convolution between the causal time-domain propagation factor and the acoustic pressure) that takes into account the dispersive nature of the medium is utilized to make these problems tractable. The resulting modified wave equation (either homogeneous or heterogeneous) is applicable to either linear or non-linear propagation. For the case of an acoustic wave propagating in a two-dimensional heterogeneous dispersive medium, a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) representation of the modified linear wave equation can been used to solve for the acoustic pressure. The method is applied to the case of scattering from and propagating through a 2D infinitely long cylinder with real world material properties. It is found that ignoring the heterogeneity in the medium can lead to significant error in the propagated/scattered field. Published by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of IMACS.

AB (n = 150) Nonbattle injury (NBI) continues to be a leading cause of morbidity among troops currently deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan. To assess NBI incidence, impact, and risk factors, a survey was given to soldiers during mid- or postdeployment from Iraq, Afghanistan, and surrounding region, from January 2005 through May 2006. Among 3,367 troops completing a survey, 19.5% reported at least one NB!, and 85% sought care at least once for their symptoms. Service component, rank, and unit type were among factors associated with differential NBI risk. Twenty percent stated that NBI resulted in back-up personnel being called or shift change to cover impacted duties, and among those reported having been grounded from flight status, a third were the result of NBI. NBI continues to be a problem in recent deployments, and given the findings on individual and potential operational impact indicators, NBI should be viewed as a primary force health protection problem.

AB The use of computer-based, psychomotor testing systems for personnel selection and classification has gained popularity in the civilian and military worlds in recent years. However, several issues need to be resolved before adopting a computerized, psychomotor test. The purpose of this study was to compare the impact of alternative input devices used for the Test Of Basic Aviation Skills (TBAS) as well as to explore the practice effects of the TBAS. In study 1, participants were administered the TBAS tracking tests once with a throttle and once with foot pedals in a classic test retest paradigm. The results confirmed that neither of the input devices provided a significant advantage on TBAS performance. In study 2, participants were administered the TBAS twice with a 24-hour interval between testing. The results demonstrated significant practice effects for all the TBAS subtests except for the dichotic listening tests.

ID HERNIOPLASTY; SURGERY
AB Background: Inguinal hernia is a common surgical problem in the active duty population. The decision to perform a hernia repair in the traditional open manner versus a laparoscopic approach is somewhat controversial. Furthermore, the type of repair performed has not been analyzed in a systematic manner within an operational setting. Methods: We retrospectively reviewed all inguinal hernia repairs performed at Expeditionary Medical Facility Kuwait (EMFK) over an 18-month period, from April 2007 through October 2008. Operative times and time to return to duty were compared between active duty personnel undergoing open mesh repair and laparoscopic extraperitoneal inguinal hernia repair. Results: One hundred seventy-six consecutive patients who underwent inguinal hernia repair by six different surgeons were analyzed. One hundred and four patients had an open repair and 72 patients underwent laparoscopic repair. The mean operative time was significantly longer in the laparoscopic group (20.2 minutes, p < 0.001). The mean time to return to duty was significantly shorter in the laparoscopic group (2.3 days, p = 0.008). Conclusions: Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair is associated with longer operative times but shorter recovery periods. The laparoscopic approach may be a viable option for patients in the expeditionary setting.

AB We describe in detail an atom-by-atom exchange manipulation technique using a scanning tunneling microscope probe. As-deposited Mn adatoms (Mn(ad)) are exchanged one-by-one with surface In atoms (In(su)) to create a Mn surface-substitutional (Mn(In)) and an exchanged In adatom (In(ad)) by an electron tunneling induced reaction Mn(ad) + In(su) -> Mn(In) + In(ad) on the InAs(110) surface. In combination with density-functional theory and high resolution scanning tunneling microscopy imaging, we have identified the reaction pathway for the Mn and In atom exchange.

AB OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to assess the long-term anatomic and clinical outcomes in patients with giant middle cerebral artery (MCA) aneurysms treated by endovascular coil embolization alone or in combination with cerebral revascularization.
METHODS: One hundred twenty-six patients with giant intracranial aneurysms were endovascularly treated at the University of California, Los Angeles, between 1990 and 2007. Of these, 9 patients had partially thrombosed MCA aneurysms with incorporated branches. Five patients presented with symptoms of mass effect, 3 had seizures, 2 had episodes of brain ischemia, and I presented with acute subarachnoid hemorrhage.
RESULTS: Three wide-neck saccular aneurysms were almost completely coil occluded, leaving only small neck remnants that were intended to preserve the patency of incorporated MCA branches. The other 6 fusiform aneurysms were effectively treated by superficial temporal artery-MCA or occipital artery-MCA bypass, followed by complete coil occlusion of these aneurysms. Immediate angiograms and mid- or long-tern) neuro-radiological imaging follow-up examinations revealed complete obliteration or near-complete occlusion (90%-99%) of the aneurysms in all 9 patients. Seven patients had a favorable long-term clinical outcome, and 1 patient died as a result of unrelated congestive heart failure. One patient required emergent surgical aneurysm thrombectomy because of inadvertent coil occlusion of the frontal opercular artery, which was not protected by the bypass, and the patient subsequently sustained a moderate neurological disability.
CONCLUSION: Giant MCA aneurysms with branch incorporations and other unfavorable features such as intraluminal thrombus, mural calcification, and fusiform configuration can be effectively treated with a team approach, using coil embolization after protective surgical bypass. When aneurysms with MCA branches incorporated into the neck rather than the dome are treated by endovascular techniques alone, long-term angiographic follow-up is necessary to assess and further treat any significant remnant.

AB Engineering optimization problems are multicriteria with continuous, discrete, and mixed design variables. Correct definition of the feasible solution set is of fundamental importance in these problems. It is quite difficult for the expert to define this set. For this reason, the results of searching for optimal solutions frequently have no practical meaning. Furthermore, correct definition of this set makes it possible to significantly reduce the time of searching for optimal solutions. This paper describes construction of the feasible solution set with continuous, discrete, and mixed design variables on the basis of Parameter Space Investigation (PSI) method. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Easily processed electro-optic films are reported with potential for >100 GHz switching speeds. Dyes of the general chemical structure 1-(4-[N-ethyl-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-amino]-phenylethynyl)-4-(4-cyanophenylethynyl)-2,5-disubstituted benzene were attached as side groups to a polyimide backbone. Substituents on the central ring of the three-ring dye prevented aggregation at high concentrations of dye. These amorphous films exhibited absorption maxima in the range of 375-395 nm. A film containing 25% dye attached to polyimide was poled to give an electro-optic coefficient (r(33)) of 12 +/- 2 pm/V at 532 nm. Its properties were compared with the measured linear and nonlinear optical properties of several previously published dyes that have transparency in the blue-green part of the visible spectrum.

AB Purpose. To explore the effects of visual acuity on target discrimination and marksmanship.
Methods. A randomized, single-blind, repeated measures study was conducted to evaluate the effect of visual acuity on target discrimination and marksmanship. Subjects were examined for inclusion criteria and equivalent plus lens over-refractions necessary to obtain the five test visual acuity ranges. Qualified subjects fired at randomized target presentations from 50 to 300 m while wearing customized spectacles to yield the visual acuity levels being evaluated. Subjects then rotated foxholes for target discrimination sequences. Randomized targets marked as friend or enemy were presented in like manner for each of the five visual acuity levels.
Results. Subjects at acuities better than 0.2 LogMAR were significantly more likely to hit the target than those with acuities equal to or worse than 0.7 LogMAR. Target discrimination results show subjects with acuities between -0.2 and 0.6 LogMAR were significantly more likely to correctly identify the target than those with acuities equal to or worse than 0.7 LogMAR. In addition, those at acuities of 0.0 LogMAR or better performed significantly better than those with acuities between 0.3 and 0.6 LogMAR.
Conclusions. Visual acuity significantly affects target discrimination and marksmanship performance. Results of this study closely mirror expected findings based on visual angles with acuities in the range 0.3 to 0.4 LogMAR (20/40-20/50) being the transition zone where performance begins to deteriorate. This performance-based evidence fully supports a vision classification system that mandates eyewear to maximize visual performance for deployable military members. Based on the results of this study, the current U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, and U.S. Marine Corps vision readiness standards of 20/40 or better uncorrected or corrected vision seems to be a valid choice because it is the transition point for performance in both target discrimination and marksmanship ability.

AB Background: Human metapneumovirus (hMPV) is an established pathogen of the respiratory tract of children and adults. hMPV is related to other paramyxoviruses known to cause encephalitis. Reports suggest that hMPV may cause disease of the central nervous system (CNS).
Methods: Two groups of patients were studied. The first group consisted of children between birth and 18 years from whom nasal scrapings were obtained between January 2004 and October 2005. hMPV RNA amplification by PCR was done and records were reviewed for clinical and demographic data. The second group consisted of patients with encephalitis referred to the California Encephalitis Project (CEP) for comprehensive diagnostic testing between November 2004 and June 2006.
Results: In group 1, 1474 specimens were examined for hMPV RNA. Sixty-three evaluable patients were infected with hMPV of whom 4 (6.3%) had seizures, compared with 145 patients infected with RSV of whom I had seizures (0.7%, P = 0.031). Comparing respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and hMPV infections, there was no significant difference in the occurrence of fever. All children with hMPV infections and seizures were hospitalized and 3 were intubated because of status epilepticus. Group 2 consisted of 205 pediatric cases referred to CEP between November 2004 and June 2006 who had hMPV testing done. hMPV was detected in nasopharyngeal swabs of 5 patients. Neither hMPV RNA nor antihMPV specific IgM were detectable in the CSF from the 5 patients for whom CSF was available.
Conclusion: Nine cases of CNS illness temporally associated with the presence of hMPV nucleic acid in the upper airway are described. Compared with children infected with RSV, children with hMPV were significantly more likely to have had a seizure. Our data, in conjunction with previously reported cases suggest that hMPV may be associated with a spectrum of CNS disease ranging from febrile seizures to severe, fatal encephalitis.

AB We investigate the charge-density wave (CDW) instability in single and double layers, as well as in the bulk 2H-NbSe2. We demonstrate that the density functional theory correctly describes the metallic CDW state in the bulk 2H-NbSe2. We predict that both monolayer and bilayer NbSe2 undergo a CDW instability. However, while in the bulk the instability occurs at a momentum q(CDW)approximate to 2/3 Gamma M, in freestanding layers it occurs at q(CDW)approximate to 1/2 Gamma M. Furthermore, while in the bulk the CDW leads to a metallic state, in a monolayer the ground state becomes semimetallic, in agreement with recent experimental data. We elucidate the key role that an enhancement of the electron-phonon matrix element at q approximate to q(CDW) plays in forming the CDW ground state.

AB Since the original proposal of an unconventional chiral order parameter in the ruthenate perovskite superconductor Sr2RuO4, much attention has been given to the possibility of plane-parallel nodal lines on the predominant gamma cylindrical Fermi surface given evidence for low-lying quasiparticle excitations in this material. Here I propose a tunneling spectroscopy experiment to determine whether such nodal lines in fact exist.

ID QUARK-GLUON PLASMA; COLLABORATION; PERSPECTIVE; RIDGE
AB The STAR Collaboration at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider presents a systematic study of high-transverse-momentum charged-di-hadron correlations at small azimuthal pair separation Delta phi in d+Au and central Au+Au collisions at s(NN)=200 GeV. Significant correlated yield for pairs with large longitudinal separation Delta eta is observed in central Au+Au collisions, in contrast to d+Au collisions. The associated yield distribution in Delta eta x Delta phi can be decomposed into a narrow jet-like peak at small angular separation which has a similar shape to that found in d+Au collisions, and a component that is narrow in Delta phi and depends only weakly on Delta eta, the "ridge." Using two systematically independent determinations of the background normalization and shape, finite ridge yield is found to persist for trigger p(t)>6 GeV/c, indicating that it is correlated with jet production. The transverse-momentum spectrum of hadrons comprising the ridge is found to be similar to that of bulk particle production in the measured range (2 < p(t)< 4 GeV/c).

TI Ultrahigh-spin spectroscopy of Er-159,Er-160: Observation of triaxial
strongly deformed structures
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C

AB Three weakly populated high-spin rotational bands associated with the gamma decay of Er-159 and Er-160 were observed in fusion-evaporation reactions involving a beam of Ca-48 at an energy of 215 MeV incident on a Cd-116 target. The gamma decays were detected using the highly efficient Gammasphere spectrometer. The discovery of these bands, which extend discrete-line spectroscopy in these nuclei to ultrahigh spin of similar to 60h, is consistent with recent observations of high-spin collective structures in isotopes of Er, Yb, and Tm around N=90. Cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations suggest that these bands may arise from well-deformed triaxial configurations with either positive or negative gamma deformation.

TI High-spin proton alignments and coexisting coupling schemes in Hf-168

ISOMERS; LU-167
AB High-spin states in Hf-168 were populated in the Zr-96(Ge-76,4n) reaction and the decay gamma rays measured with the Gammasphere spectrometer array. Previously known bands were extended to significantly higher spins and seven new bands were established. The results were interpreted within the framework of the cranked shell model with the help of comparisons with neighboring nuclei. The observation of full alignment in band crossings at a rotational frequency h omega similar to 0.55 MeV revealed that these crossings are associated with proton alignments involving h(11/2) and h(9/2) orbitals. The characteristics of one strongly coupled high-K band indicate that the deformation-aligned configuration is built on the same six quasiparticles that constitute the high-spin structure of a rotationally aligned band. This leads to the coexistence of two coupling schemes, deformation and rotation alignment, in six-quasiparticle structures involving the same orbitals.

AB We report on measurements of the cosmic-ray induced gamma-ray emission of Earth's atmosphere by the Large Area Telescope on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. The Large Area Telescope has observed the Earth during its commissioning phase and with a dedicated Earth limb following observation in September 2008. These measurements yielded similar to 6.4x10(6) photons with energies > 100 MeV and similar to 250 hours total live time for the highest quality data selection. This allows the study of the spatial and spectral distributions of these photons with unprecedented detail. The spectrum of the emission-often referred to as Earth albedo gamma-ray emission-has a power-law shape up to 500 GeV with spectral index Gamma=2.79 +/- 0.06.

AB We report a measurement of the longitudinal double-spin asymmetry A(LL) and the differential cross section for inclusive pi(0) production at midrapidity in polarized proton collisions at s=200 GeV. The cross section was measured over a transverse momentum range of 1 < p(T)< 17 GeV/c and found to be in good agreement with a next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculation. The longitudinal double-spin asymmetry was measured in the range of 3.7 < p(T)< 11 GeV/c and excludes a maximal positive gluon polarization in the proton. The mean transverse momentum fraction of pi(0)'s in their parent jets was found to be around 0.7 for electromagnetically triggered events.

AB The longitudinal spin transfer, D-LL, from high energy polarized protons to Lambda and Lambda hyperons has been measured for the first time in proton-proton collisions at s=200 GeV with the STAR detector at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The measurements cover pseudorapidity, eta, in the range |eta|< 1.2 and transverse momenta, p(T), up to 4 GeV/c. The longitudinal spin transfer is found to be D-LL=-0.03 +/- 0.13(stat)+/- 0.04(syst) for inclusive Lambda and D-LL=-0.12 +/- 0.08(stat)+/- 0.03(syst) for inclusive Lambda hyperons with <>=0.5 and << p(T)>>=3.7 GeV/c. The dependence on eta and p(T) is presented.

AB Two-dimensional stationary nontearing inertial scale electron magnetohydrodynamic (EMHD) instability is described. The physical mechanism of the instability is illustrated. Analytical asymptotic estimate of the growth rate is provided and verified with a numerical calculation of the instability, also describing the characteristic structure of the eigenmode. Natural occurrence of the instability is demonstrated in a nonlinear EMHD simulation of a system undergoing magnetic reconnection, where the instability manifests itself on the outflow side of the magnetic field separatrix and may affect the self-determined length of the layer.

AB This paper describes the synthesis and characterization of bis-(triaminoguanidinium)-3,3'-dinitro-5,5'-azo-1,2,4-triazolate (TAGDNAT), a novel high-nitrogen molecule that derives its energy release from both a high heat of formation and intramolecular oxidation reactions. TAGDNAT shows promise as a propellant or explosive ingredient not only due to its high nitrogen content (66.35 wt.-%) but also due to its high hydrogen content (4.34 wt.-%). This new molecule has been characterized with respect to its morphology, sensitivity properties, explosive, and combustion performance. The heat of formation of TAGDNAT was also experimentally determined. The results of these studies show that TAGDNAT has one of the fastest low-pressure burning rates (at 6.9 MPa) measured till date, 6.79 cm s(-1) at 6.9 MPa (39% faster than triaminoguanidinium azotetrazolate (TAGzT), a comparable high-nitrogen/high-hydrogen material). Furthermore, its pressure sensitivity is 0.507, a 33% reduction compared to TAGzT.

POST-SECULAR MILITARY
SO REVIEW OF FAITH & INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS
LA English
DT Article
AB Religion's prominence in this era of globalization is increasingly difficult to deny, and secular institutions are making significant adjustments to the new realities. The U.S. military is one such organization coming to grips with the post-secular world it inhabits. Indeed, we are told, engaging war's spiritual dynamics has become a military necessity. This essay considers the shifting contours of this post-secular landscape and the attendant ethical challenges for a consummately secular organization that rather suddenly discovers the relevance of religion to its mission and operating areas.

AB Lung development is orchestrated by highly integrated morphogenic programs of interrelated patterns of gene and protein expression. Injury to the developing lung in the canalicular and saccular phases of lung development alters subsequent alveolar and vascular development resulting in simplified alveolar structures, dysmorphic capillary configuration, variable interstitial cellularity and fibroproliferation that are characteristic of the 'new' bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). Fetal and neonatal infection, abnormal stretch of the developing airways and alveoli, altered expression Of surfactant proteins (or genetically altered proteins), polymorphisms of genes encoding for vascular endothelial growth factors, and reactive oxygen species result in imparied gas exchange in the developing lung. However, the 'new' BPD represents only one form of neonatal chronic lung disease and the consistent use of both the physiologic definition and severity scale would provide greater accuracy in determining the impact of the disease currently defined by its treatment. Our present labelling of the clinical state of oxygen Supplementation and/or ventilatory support at 36 weeks' postmenstrual age and the histopathologic severity of alveolar arrest and vascular 'simplification' may not always be predictive of the degree of altered lung development and thus longer-term pulmonary function evaluations are needed to determine the impact of this disorder in specific infants. The proposed role of novel molecular therapies, and the combined effects Of Currently established therapies, as well as exogenous surfactant and inhaled nitric oxide or repetitive surfactant dosing, on the severity and incidence of new BPD hold considerable promise for reducing the long-term Pulmonary moribidity among infants delivered prematurely.

AB Synovial membranes line the diarthrodial (movable) joints, bursae, and tendon sheaths of the body. The primary function of this specialized, vascular tissue is to serve as a filter system that lubricates and nourishes the articular structures as well as serving as a shock-absorber. The synovium is affected by a variety of disorders that can be localized to a specific articulation or can be systemic in nature. These include inflammatory, infectious, degenerative, traumatic, or neoplastic categories of disease. Further, MR imaging provides an excellent non-invasive tool for the evaluation of the synovium and synovial-based processes. This article will discuss technical considerations pertinent to the MR imaging evaluation of synovial processes in the knee; will review the synovial and bursal anatomy of the knee as well as the imaging characteristics of general synovial abnormalities and their diagnostic implications. In addition, it will review specific synovial processes and their characteristic MR imaging findings.

TI Towards a polariton-based light emitter based on non-polar GaN quantum
wells
SO SOLID STATE COMMUNICATIONS

DE Quantum wells; Semiconductors; Epitaxy; Optical properties
AB A polariton-based light emitter is a extraordinary concept as an alternative to a light-emitting diode (LED) or laser diode. The physics of a polariton laser is fundamentally different from the spontaneous emission process of an LED or the inversion and stimulated emission process of a laser diode. The rapid decay and emission from this polariton-exciton state bypasses the normal irreversible spontaneous emission and associated non-radiative decay mechanisms. An AlGaN/AlN nucleation bilayer was employed on r-plane sapphire to deposit non-polar GaN quantum wells embedded in an AlGaN-based cavity surrounded by top and bottom distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs). The reflectance data show that the exciton and photon states can be tuned (by changing the angle of the sample) to the same energy. The characteristic strong coupling was observed in the reflectance data where the states of the exciton and photon do not overlap: rather they split into an upper polariton state and a lower polariton state. The photoluminescence (PL) showed a strong emission at a low stimulation level at a similar energy and angle. Published by Elsevier Ltd

AB Tidally induced, sudden temperature drops in Nan Wan, particularly pronounced during the spring tide, often bear ecological consequences. We use an Ocean Nowcast/Forecast System (ONFS) at the US Naval Research Laboratory (NRL) to examine a Widely publicized cold-water intrusion event in July 2008, and compare it with what we perceived as a normal intrusion event ill June 2007. For a normal cold-water intrusion, cold anomalies eventually propagate away in forms similar to internal Kelvin waves. For early July Of 2008, the NRL ONFS suggested all anomalous, subtidal and essentially eastward current near Nan Wan. The subtidal Current, Superimposed on the ebb Current, blocks the propagation of cold anomalies ill the direction of internal Kelvin waves, inducing anomalous and inefficient cold-water dispersal. The NRL ONFS also Suggested the anomalous subtidal current as a post-typhoon response to the passage of Typhoon Fengshen.

AB We sought to elucidate the role of migratory birds in transmission of H5N1 in an enzoonotic area. Resident, captive, and migratory birds were sampled at five sites in Java, Indonesia. Mist nets were used to trap birds. Birds were identified to species. RNA was extracted from swabs and reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) conducted for the HA and M genes of H5N1. Antibodies were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and hemagglutination inhibition test. Between October 2006 and September 2007, a total of 4,067 captive, resident, and migratory birds comprising 98 species in 23 genera were sampled. The most commonly collected birds were the common sandpiper (6% of total), striated heron (3%), and the domestic chicken (14%). The overall prevalence of H5N1 antibodies was 5.3%. A significantly higher percentage of captive birds (16.1%) showed antibody evidence of H5N1 exposure when compared to migratory or resident birds. The greatest number of seropositive birds in each category were Muschovy duck (captive), striated heron (resident), and the Pacific golden plover (migratory). Seven apparently well captive birds yielded molecular evidence of H5N1 infection. Following amplification, the HA, NA, and M genes were analyzed. Phylogenetic analysis of the HA gene showed that the isolates were 97% similar to EU124153.1 A/chicken/West Java/Garut May 2006, an isolate obtained in a similar region of West Java. While no known markers of neuraminidase inhibitor resistance were found within the NA gene, M segment analysis revealed the V27A mutation known to confer resistance to adamantanes. Our results demonstrate moderate serologic evidence of H5N1 infection in captive birds, sampled in five sites in Java, Indonesia, but only occasional infection in resident and migratory birds. These data imply that in an enzoonotic region of Indonesia the role of migratory birds in transmission of H5N1 is limited.

TI A New Method for Estimating Tropical Cyclone Wind Speed Probabilities
SO WEATHER AND FORECASTING
LA English
DT Article
ID PREDICTION; SYSTEM
AB The National Hurricane Center (NHC) Hurricane Probability Program (HPP) was implemented in 1983 to estimate the probability that the center of a tropical cyclone would pass within 60 n mi of a set of specified points out to 72 h. Other than periodic updates of the probability distributions, the HPP remained unchanged through 2005. Beginning in 2006, the HPP products were replaced by those from a new program that estimates probabilities of winds of at least 34, 50, and 64 kt, and incorporates uncertainties in the track, intensity, and wind structure forecasts. This paper describes the new probability model and a verification of the operational forecasts from the 2006-07 seasons.
The new probabilities extend to 120 h for all tropical cyclones in the Atlantic and eastern, central, and western North Pacific to 100 degrees E. Because of the interdependence of the track, intensity, and structure forecasts, a Monte Carlo method is used to generate 1000 realizations by randomly sampling from the operational forecast center track and intensity forecast error distributions from the past 5 yr. The extents of the 34-, 50-, and 64-kt winds for the realizations are obtained from a simple wind radii model and its underlying error distributions.
Verification results show that the new probability model is relatively unbiased and skillful as measured by the Brier skill score, where the skill baseline is the deterministic forecast from the operational centers converted to a binary probabilistic forecast. The model probabilities are also well calibrated and have high confidence based on reliability diagrams.

AB Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) Type A subtype H5N1 is a viral zoonotic disease that has infected and killed birds and humans since late 2003. Cambodia's experience with HPAI since the disease was discovered on a farm outside Phnom Penh in January 2004 reveals important aspects of how a developing country, with limited resources and capabilities, has responded to a crisis that has global public health implications and, vice-versa, how this global response in turn affected Cambodia. Qualitative research methodologies consisting of mostly one-on-one semi-structured interviews by Sophal Ear across various government offices, the private sector and the non-govern mental sectors, and online surveys sent to individuals deeply involved in HPAI work in Cambodia can render interesting insights related to livelihood issues. Results from these methodologies suggest there is a non-alignment of interests among the government, donors, implementing agencies and rural smallholder farmers that have important implications for effectiveness of disease mitigation measures and livelihood impacts.

AB The microwave properties of BaTiO3 and Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 films were characterized as a function of in-plane film strain, crystallographic direction, film distortion, and dc bias. The strain dependence of BaTiO3 and Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 films showed an opposite pattern at room temperature, going from compression to tension, or vice versa. At zero bias, the dielectric constant and dielectric loss showed little dependence on direction ([100] and [110]). However, the tunability was consistently smaller along the [110] direction than along [100]. These observations agreed well with our previous work on how polarizations (both ionic and spontaneous) form and contribute to the nonlinear dielectric behavior.

AB We report on improved high-temperature soft magnetic properties in Fe(88-2x)Co(x)Ni(x)Zr(7)B(4)Cu(1) nanocrystalline alloys. Substituting 5.5 at. % Co and Ni for Fe enhances the magnetization by 5% at ambient temperature and by 30% at 650 degrees C. The Curie temperature of the residual amorphous phase is also raised significantly (from 67 degrees C for x=0 to 298 degrees C for x=5.5), resulting in low coercivities (< 30 A m(-1)) for Fe(77)Co(5.5)Ni(5.5)Zr(7)B(4)Cu(1) over the temperature range 50-500 degrees C. The higher magnetization and Curie temperature as compared with other Fe-based alloys, and smaller Co content as compared with (Fe,Co)-based alloys, make this alloy attractive as an affordable high-temperature soft magnetic material.

AB Theoretical investigations of the growth and growth rates of single-crystal nanowires (NWs) by vapor phase mechanisms have been carried out. Substrate-induced processes are assumed to dominate this growth. The modeling for growth takes adsorption, desorption, surface scattering, and diffusion into account. It takes into consideration also the retarding electric field arising from the scattering of the NW vapor species by both the substrate and the NW sidewalls. Growth characteristics under the influence of the retarding electric field have been studied. Competitive roles of adatom diffusivity and the electric field in the NW growth are elucidated. Influence of the growing NW length and the adatom impingement rate on the NW growth rate has been described. The effect of adatom collection area around each NW has been examined. The NW tapering and kinking have been explained. The fundamentals of the substrate induction and details of the growth parameters have been analyzed. The influence of foreign element catalytic agents in the vapor-liquid-solid mechanism has been presented. All these have led to the understanding and resolution of problems, controversies, and contradictions involving substrate-induced NW growths.

AB High quality (001)-oriented Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3 (BST) thin films have been grown on a-plane sapphire (1120) by rf magnetron sputtering using a double bridge layer consisting of (0001)-oriented ZnO (50 nm) and (001)-oriented MgO (10 nm) prepared by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. X-ray diffraction revealed the formation of three sets of in-plane BST domains, offset from one another by 30 degrees, which is consistent with the in-plane symmetry of the MgO layer observed by in situ reflective high electron energy diffraction. The in-plane epitaxial relationship of BST, MgO, and ZnO has been determined to be BST [110]//MgO [110]//ZnO [1120] and BST [110]/MgO [110]//ZnO [1100]. Capacitance-voltage measurements performed on BST coplanar interdigitated capacitor structures revealed a high dielectric tunability of up to 84% at 1 MHz.

AB In this work, we report on a cold, bright portion of an active region observed by the Hinode/EUV Imaging Spectrometer. The emitting plasma was very bright at transition region temperatures, and the intensities of lines of ions formed between 10(5) and 10(6) K were enhanced over normal values. The data set constitutes an excellent laboratory where the emission of transition region ions can be tested. We first determine the thermal structure of the observed plasma, and then we use it (1) to develop a spectral atlas, and (2) to assess the quality of CHIANTI atomic data by comparing predicted emissivities with observed intensities. We identify several lines never observed before in solar spectra, and find an overall very good agreement between CHIANTI-predicted emissivities and observations.

TI FIRST MEASUREMENTS OF THE MASS OF CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS FROM THE EUV
DIMMING OBSERVED WITH STEREO EUVI A plus B SPACECRAFT
SO ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNAL
LA English
DT Article
DE Sun: coronal mass ejections (CMEs); Sun: UV radiation

AB The masses of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) have traditionally been determined from white-light coronagraphs (based on Thomson scattering of electrons), as well as from extreme ultraviolet (EUV) dimming observed with one spacecraft. Here we develop an improved method of measuring CME masses based on EUV dimming observed with the dual STEREO/EUVI spacecraft in multiple temperature filters that includes three-dimensional volume and density modeling in the dimming region and background corona. As a test, we investigate eight CME events with previous mass determinations from STEREO/COR2, of which six cases are reliably detected with the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager (EUVI) using our automated multi-wavelength detection code. We find CME masses in the range of m(CME) = (2-7) x 10(15) g. The agreement between the two EUVI/A and B spacecraft is m(A)/m(B) = 1.3 +/- 0.6 and the consistency with white-light measurements by COR2 is m(EUVI)/m(COR2) = 1.1 +/- 0.3. The consistency between EUVI and COR2 implies no significant mass backflows (or inflows) at r < 4 R(circle dot) and adequate temperature coverage for the bulk of the CME mass in the range of T approximate to 0.5-3.0 MK. The temporal evolution of the EUV dimming allows us to also model the evolution of the CME density n(e) (t), volume V (t), height-time h(t), and propagation speed v(t) in terms of an adiabatically expanding self-similar geometry. We determine e-folding EUV dimming times of t(D) = 1.3 +/- 1.4 hr. We test the adiabatic expansion model in terms of the predicted detection delay (Delta t approximate to 0.7 hr) between EUVI and COR2 for the fastest CME event (2008 March 25) and find good agreement with the observed delay (Delta t approximate to 0.8 hr).

AB We report on the observation of the bright, long gamma-ray burst (GRB), GRB 090902B, by the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) and Large Area Telescope (LAT) instruments on-board the Fermi observatory. This was one of the brightest GRBs to have been observed by the LAT, which detected several hundred photons during the prompt phase. With a redshift of z = 1.822, this burst is among the most luminous detected by Fermi. Time-resolved spectral analysis reveals a significant power-law component in the LAT data that is distinct from the usual Band model emission that is seen in the sub-MeV energy range. This power-law component appears to extrapolate from the GeV range to the lowest energies and is more intense than the Band component, both below similar to 50 keV and above 100 MeV. The Band component undergoes substantial spectral evolution over the entire course of the burst, while the photon index of the power-law component remains constant for most of the prompt phase, then hardens significantly toward the end. After the prompt phase, power-law emission persists in the LAT data as late as 1 ks post-trigger, with its flux declining as t(-1.5). The LAT detected a photon with the highest energy so far measured from a GRB, 33.4(-3.5)(+ 2.7) GeV. This event arrived 82 s after the GBM trigger and similar to 50 s after the prompt phase emission had ended in the GBM band. We discuss the implications of these results for models of GRB emission and for constraints on models of the extragalactic background light.

AB The first results from observations of the high-mass X-ray binary LS 5039 using the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope data between 2008 August and 2009 June are presented. Our results indicate variability that is consistent with the binary period, with the emission being modulated with a period of 3.903 +/- 0.005 days; the first detection of this modulation at GeV energies. The light curve is characterized by a broad peak around superior conjunction in agreement with inverse Compton scattering models. The spectrum is represented by a power law with an exponential cutoff, yielding an overall flux ( 100 MeV-300 GeV) of 4.9 +/- 0.5(stat) +/- 1.8(syst) x 10(-7) photon cm(-2) s(-1), with a cutoff at 2.1 +/- 0.3(stat) +/- 1.1(syst) GeV and photon index G = 1.9 +/- 0.1(stat) +/- 0.3(syst). The spectrum is observed to vary with orbital phase, specifically between inferior and superior conjunction. We suggest that the presence of a cutoff in the spectrum may be indicative of magnetospheric emission similar to the emission seen in many pulsars by Fermi.

TI FERMI LAT DISCOVERY OF EXTENDED GAMMA-RAY EMISSION IN THE DIRECTION OF

AB The discovery of bright gamma-ray emission coincident with supernova remnant (SNR) W51C is reported using the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. W51C is a middle-aged remnant (similar to 10(4) yr) with intense radio synchrotron emission in its shell and known to be interacting with a molecular cloud. The gamma-ray emission is spatially extended, broadly consistent with the radio and X-ray extent of SNR W51C. The energy spectrum in the 0.2-50 GeV band exhibits steepening toward high energies. The luminosity is greater than 1 x 10(36) erg s(-1) given the distance constraint of D > 5.5 kpc, which makes this object one of the most luminous gamma-ray sources in our Galaxy. The observed gamma-rays can be explained reasonably by a combination of efficient acceleration of nuclear cosmic rays at supernova shocks and shock-cloud interactions. The decay of neutral pi mesons produced in hadronic collisions provides a plausible explanation for the gamma-ray emission. The product of the average gas density and the total energy content of the accelerated protons amounts to (n) over bar W-H(p) similar or equal to 5 x 10(51) (D/6 kpc)(2) erg cm(-3). Electron density constraints from the radio and X-ray bands render it difficult to explain the LAT signal as due to inverse Compton scattering. The Fermi LAT source coincident with SNR W51C sheds new light on the origin of Galactic cosmic rays.

AB Experimental results from a 16-channel photonic phased-array calibration system are presented. The calibrator utilises an array of fibrepigtailed, zero-biased photodiodes as optical transducers to transmit an RF signal from an electrically-shorted dipole integrated in each unit cell of a frequency-selective surface radome. RF phase and amplitude stability, along with the overall RF transparency of the hardware, are presented. The system successfully demonstrates a solution with performance suitable for in situ real-time calibration of phased-array antennas.

AB Slightly viscous N-alkyl-substituted glycine ester ionic liquids were prepared via alkylation of glycine ethyl esters with appropriate haloalkanes followed by anion exchange with lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)amide. These ionic liquids have been characterized by IR, NMR, elemental analysis, thermal stability, phase behavior, viscosity, and density. Compound 9 crystallizes in the monoclinic system, P2(1)/c. The viscosities of the N,N,N-trialkyl-substituted glycine ester ionic liquids (6, 8, 10) are in the similar to 200 to 400 cP range at 25 degrees C. While exhibiting liquid characteristics analogous to the traditional heterocyclic ionic liquids, these new liquids are much less viscous than known amino acid ionic liquids. The correlation of viscosity and temperature was determined. To understand the influence of the alkyl and ester-substituted groups on viscosity, the electronic distributions and the electrostatic potential surfaces of the glycine-based cations, including glycine (Gly(+)), glycine ethyl ester (GlyET(+)), N,N-dinlethyl glycine (DMGly(+)), N,N-dimethyl glycine ethyl ester (DMGlyET(+)), N,N-dimethyl-N-propyl glycine ethyl ester (DMPGlyET(+)), N,N-dimethyl-N-3-fluoropropyl glycine ethyl ester (DMPFGlyET(+)), and N-butyl-N,N-dimethyl glycine ethyl ester (DMBGlyET(+)) cations have been investigated and analyzed. The possible effects oil the viscosity coming from the intermolecular interactions arising from Coulomb interactions, hydrogen bonding, polarizability effects, and van der Waals interactions are considered.

AB A cornerstone of Einstein's special relativity is Lorentz invariance-the postulate that all observers measure exactly the same speed of light in vacuum, independent of photon-energy. While special relativity assumes that there is no fundamental length-scale associated with such invariance, there is a fundamental scale (the Planck scale, l(Planck) approximate to 1.62 x 10(-33) cm or E-Planck = M(Planck)c(2) approximate to 1.22 x 10(19) GeV), at which quantum effects are expected to strongly affect the nature of space-time. There is great interest in the (not yet validated) idea that Lorentz invariance might break near the Planck scale. A key test of such violation of Lorentz invariance is a possible variation of photon speed with energy(1-7). Even a tiny variation in photon speed, when accumulated over cosmological light-travel times, may be revealed by observing sharp features in gamma-ray burst (GRB) light-curves(2). Here we report the detection of emission up to similar to 31GeV from the distant and short GRB090510. We find no evidence for the violation of Lorentz invariance, and place a lower limit of 1.2E(Planck) on the scale of a linear energy dependence (or an inverse wavelength dependence), subject to reasonable assumptions about the emission (equivalently we have an upper limit of l(Planck)/1.2 on the length scale of the effect). Our results disfavour quantum-gravity theories(3,6,7) in which the quantum nature of space-time on a very small scale linearly alters the speed of light.

AB Background: Resource allocation models have not had a substantial impact on HIV/AIDS resource allocation decisions in spite of the important, additional insights they may provide. In this paper, we highlight six difficulties often encountered in attempts to implement such models in policy settings; these are: model complexity, data requirements, multiple stakeholders, funding issues, and political and ethical considerations. We then make recommendations as to how each of these difficulties may be overcome.
Results: To ensure that models can inform the actual decision, modellers should understand the environment in which decision-makers operate, including full knowledge of the stakeholders' key issues and requirements. HIV/AIDS resource allocation model formulations should be contextualized and sensitive to societal concerns and decision-makers' realities. Modellers should provide the required education and training materials in order for decision-makers to be reasonably well versed in understanding the capabilities, power and limitations of the model.
Conclusion: This paper addresses the issue of knowledge translation from the established resource allocation modelling expertise in the academic realm to that of policymaking.

AB The Bacillus cereus group includes three closely related species, B. anthracis, B. cereus, and B. thuringiensis, which form a highly homogeneous subdivision of the genus Bacillus. One of these species, B. anthracis, has been identified as one of the most probable bacterial biowarfare agents. Here, we evaluate the sequence and length polymorphisms of the Bacillus collagen-like protein bcl genes as a basis for B. anthracis detection and fingerprinting. Five genes, designated bclA to bclE, are present in B. anthracis strains. Examination of bclABCDE sequences identified polymorphisms in bclB alleles of the B. cereus group organisms. These sequence polymorphisms allowed specific detection of B. anthracis strains by PCR using both genomic DNA and purified Bacillus spores in reactions. By exploiting the length variation of the bcl alleles it was demonstrated that the combined bclABCDE PCR products generate markedly different fingerprints for the B. anthracis Ames and Sterne strains. Moreover, we predict that bclABCDE length polymorphism creates unique signatures for B. anthracis strains, which facilitates identification of strains with specificity and confidence. Thus, we present a new diagnostic concept for B. anthracis detection and fingerprinting, which can be used alone or in combination with previously established typing platforms.

ID DIFFUSION
AB We investigated multilayer and bilayer Ni/Si thin films by nanodifferential scanning calorimetry (nano-DSC) at ultrarapid scan rates, in a temperature-time regime not accessible with conventional apparatus. DSC experiments were completed at slower scan rates. as well, where it was possible to conduct parallel rapid thermal annealing experiments for comparison. Postexperimental characterization was accomplished by x-ray diffraction, and by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-filtered TEM of thin cross sections prepared by focused ion beam milling. We found that rate of heating has a profound effect on the resulting microstructure, as well as on the DSC signal. After heating to 560 degrees C at 120 degrees C/s, the general microstructure of the multilayer was preserved, in spite of extensive interdiffusion of Ni and Si. By contrast, after heating to 560 degrees C at 16 000 degrees C/s, the multilayer films were completely homogeneous with no evidence of the original multilayer microstructure. For the slower scan rates, we interpret the results as indicating a solid state diffusion-nucleation-growth process. At the higher scan rates, we suggest that the temperature increased so rapidly that a metastable liquid was first formed, resulting in complete intermixing of the multilayer, followed by crystallization to form solid phases. The integrated DSC enthalpies for both multilayer and bilayer films are consistent with this interpretation, which is further supported by thermodynamic predictions of metastable Ni/Si melting and solid state Ni/Si interdiffusion. Our results suggest that use of heating rates >10 000 degrees C/s may open new avenues for intermetallic micro- and nanofabrication, at temperatures well below those prevailing during explosive silicidation.

AB Droplets play central roles in the nanowire (NW) growth by vapor phase mechanisms. These mechanisms include vapor-liquid-solid (VLS), vapor-solid-solid or vapor-solid (VSS), vapor-quasisolid-solid or vapor-quasiliquid-solid (VQS), oxide-assisted growth (OAG), and self-catalytic growth (SCG) mechanisms. Fundamentals of the shape, size, characteristics, and dynamics of droplets and the impacts of them on the NW growth, have been studied. The influence of growth techniques, growth parameters (e.g., growth temperature, partial pressure, gas flow rates, etc.), thermodynamic conditions, surface and interface energy, molar volume, chemical potentials, etc. have been considered on the shapes and sizes of droplets. A model has been presented to explain why droplets can be larger than, equal to, or smaller than the associated NWs. Various growth techniques have been analyzed to understand defects created in NWs. Photoluminescence characteristics have been presented to quantify the roles of droplets in the creation of NW defects. The study highlights the importance of the purity of the droplet material. It attests to the superiority of the SCG mechanism, and clarifies the differences between the VSS, VQS, VLS, and SCG mechanisms. It explains why droplets produced by some mechanisms are visible but droplets produced by some other mechanisms are not visible. It elucidates the formation mechanisms of very large and very small droplets, and discusses the ground rules for droplets creating necked NWs. It puts forth reasons to demonstrate that very large droplets may not behave as droplets. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3253570]

AB The major flagellin of Campylobacter jejuni strain 81-176, FlaA, has been shown to be glycosylated at 19 serine or threonine sites, and this glycosylation is required for flagellar filament formation. Some enzymatic components of the glycosylation machinery of C. jejuni 81-176 are localized to the poles of the cell in an FlhF-independent manner. Flagellin glycosylation could be detected in flagellar mutants at multiple levels of the regulatory hierarchy, indicating that glycosylation occurs independently of the flagellar regulon. Mutants were constructed in which each of the 19 serine or threonines that are glycosylated in FlaA was converted to an alanine. Eleven of the 19 mutants displayed no observable phenotype, but the remaining 8 mutants had two distinct phenotypes. Five mutants (mutations S417A, S436A, S440A, S457A, and T481A) were fully motile but defective in autoagglutination (AAG). Three other mutants (mutations S425A, S454A, and S460A) were reduced in motility and synthesized truncated flagellar filaments. The data implicate certain glycans in mediating filament-filament interactions resulting in AAG and other glycans appear to be critical for structural subunit-subunit interactions within the filament.

AB Silicone fouling-release coatings represent a non-toxic alternative to biocide-containing ship hull paints. These coatings allow fouling organisms to attach to the hull surface, but prevent firm adhesion. Adhesive tenacity to fouling-release materials varies both among and within species. We quantified broad-sense genetic and environmental sources of intraspecific variation in tenacity to two silicone substrata, for the barnacle Balanus amphitrite. For both materials tenacity varied over an order of magnitude; however, the partitioning of this variation differed between the substrata. For International Veridian, a commercially-available fouling-release coating, removal stress varied significantly among maternal families and replicate barnacle cultures. Variation among the maternal families was associated with previously observed differences among these families in the condition of the adhesive plaque. Additional experiments suggested that variation among the replicate cultures arose from heterogeneity between replicate coatings in properties that affect tenacity. We could not attribute variation in removal stress for Dow Corning Silastic T-2, a silicone rubber used for mold-making, to any of the genetic or environmental sources tested. Instead, variation may have been due to measurement error or heterogeneity within replicate coatings in properties affecting tenacity. Differences among maternal families in removal stress may stem from variation in the interaction between the adhesive and the substratum, or in the viscoelastic properties of the adhesive plaque.

AB Detailed shipborne mapping (sidescan sonar, swath bathymetry, seismic reflection, 3.5 kHz profiling, gravity and magnetics) of the extinct Aegir spreading axis (ca.55-25 Ma) in the Norway Basin revealed a highly unusual (in a MOR setting), narrow, 130 km long, asymmetrical basement hogback (Treitel Ridge; TR) on the southern west flank of the extinct rift, close to its junction with the Iceland-Faeroe aseismic ridge and the putative paleo-Iceland hotspot center. The ridge seems to continue north another 130 km in the form of a wider, more irregular basement rise, for a combined length of ca. 260 km. The southern, narrow part of TR, approximately following or slightly younger than chron 18n (ca. 39 Ma), attains a basement relief of ca. 1000 m in the south, its summit descending gradually (1.7:100) towards the NE. Although an east-flank conjugate appears generally lacking along both northern and southern parts of TR, asymmetry of the southern portion (steeper slope facing towards the extinct rift valley) suggests volcanic formation and axially dipping normal faulting at or near the active plate boundary. The possibility of continental crust extending close to the southern end of TR may also be important, because some of this crust may have been remelted at depth, contributing magma to feed TR eruptions. Southern TR may record a brief(0.1-1 m.y.) inside-corner tectonic event (probably a flexurally compensated normal-faulted offset), in effect a "mega-abyssal hili". We suggest TR was probably not an expression of change in Iceland hotspot activity or somehow related to nearby continental crust, but rather represents the volcano-tectonic response of the Aegir accretion axis-at the time it became the eastern edge of the new Jan Mayen micro-plate-to extinction of the Mid-Labrador Sea spreading center. As proposed by Nunns (1983), the annexation of the Greenland plate by the North American plate forced a plate boundary reorganization east of Greenland-with northward propagation of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge rift along the Greenland margin to form the Jan Mayen micro-plate. Simultaneously, two ca. 107 degrees trending transforms developed from the previously 146 degrees trending Faeroes Fracture Zone. Both TR formation and fracture zone trend changes may record Aegir Ridge response to this major plate kinematic reorganization. Because TR was formed during a short interval, spreading along the Mid-Labrador Sea ridge may have ceased abruptly as well. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Hexagonal-close-packed (hcp) gamma-precipitates with large aspect ratios form rapidly in some face-centered cubic (fcc) solid-solutions. No model explains the observed time-dependent increase in aspect ratio, nor irregular intermediate growth shapes. We propose a nonequilibrium process involving trape-zoidal offshoots (controlled only by energetics) that governs the growth behavior (kinetics) and yields nonequilibrium structures in agreement with observation. Then, combining nucleation theory and diffusion-limited growth both of secondary nuclei and ledges, we derive a general growth equation for gamma-precipitates due to solute-segregation to precipitate-matrix interfaces that includes our modification of the Jones-Trivedi model for thickening to account for the slow growth of coherent interfaces compared to incoherent interfaces. The analytic form of nucleation rate agrees in various limits with forms used to fit experimental data, which were not derived from general arguments. In contrast to previous theories, our model yields quantitative agreement to the observed time-dependent increase of aspect ratio, if estimated from the solute supersaturation in the precipitate as well as the dependence on precipitate-matrix interphase energies.

AB Prior computational studies of the acid-unfolding behavior of staphylococcal nuclease (SNase) suggest that the pK(a) values of its carboxylic groups are difficult to reproduce with electrostatics calculations with continuum methods. To examine the molecular determinants of the pK(a) values of carboxylic groups in SNase, the pK(a) values of all 20 Asp and Glu residues were measured with multidimensional and multinuclear NMR spectroscopy in an acid insensitive variant of SNase. The crystal structure of the protein was obtained to describe the microenvironments of the carboxylic groups. Fourteen Asp and Glu residues titrate with relatively normal pK(a) values that are depressed by less than 1.1 units relative to the normal pK(a) of Asp and Glu in water. Only six residues have pK(a) values shifted by more than 1.5 units. Asp-21 has an unusually high pK(a) of 6.5, which is probably the result of interactions with other carboxytic groups at the active site. The most perturbed pK(a) values appear to be governed by hydrogen bonding and not by Coulomb interactions. The pK(a) values calculated with standard continuum electrostatics methods applied to static structures are more depressed than the measured values because Coulomb effects are exaggerated in the calculations. The problems persist even when the protein is treated with the dielectric constant of water. This can be interpreted to imply that structural relaxation is an important determinant of the pK(a) values; however, no major pH-sensitive conformational reorganization of the backbone was detected using NMR spectroscopy.

AB Absolute and relative diffusivity are measured on a rip-channeled beach using 30 position-tracking drifters released in clusters (4-12 drifters) deployed on 7 days with different wave forcing and tidal elevations at Sand City, Monterey Bay, California. Diffusivity and dispersion were found to be larger on days with rip current flow patterns and larger waves. Rip currents cause material to diffuse quickly for t < 90 s in the cross shore (k(xx) = 5.4-6.1 m(2)/s) before decreasing to an asymptotic oscillation (k(xx) = 0.9-2.2 m(2)/s), while alongshore material diffusion is initially (t < 170 s) smaller than cross-shore diffusion and asymptotes at a larger value (k(yy) = 2.8-3.8 m(2)/s). The cross-and alongshore absolute diffusivity modulate at similar to 300 s corresponding to the average circulation time for a rip current. Two-particle relative dispersion (D-p) grows like D-p(2) similar to t(4/3) and the relative diffusivity (K-p) is scale dependent, K-p similar to d(0.2) (d is particle separation). Cluster relative diffusion (K-e) ranged from 1.0 to 4.5 m(2)/s and cluster relative dispersions (D-e) are significantly correlated with two-particle relative dispersions (D-S) [R-2 > 0.9]. Two independent methods are used to measure the small-scale turbulent diffusion contribution (k(xy)), which are found significantly correlated (R-2 = 0.95) with each other and calculated surf zone wave breaking induced turbulent eddy viscosity. Here kxy is small relative to the total dispersion (K-e/k(xy) = 3-30), indicating that the shear flow is the primary mechanism responsible for dispersion in a rip current system.

AB We report results of scattering measurements using femtosecond pulses to collect a wealth of information in a single experiment. Potential issues with particle scattering, such as variation in particle size, were avoided by using 9 and 50 mu m diameter glass fibers. We first establish an angular scattering intensity baseline, and we show that the spectral width of very short pulses leads to smoothing of the angular scattering pattern, consistent with continuous broadband illumination. We then measure the angular scattering pattern from short pulses with a spectrometer and reveal an underlying spectral periodicity of broadband scattered light that is consistent with narrowband cw scattering. Our experimental results compare well with existing theory. We show that such two-dimensional experimental data and derived analytic solution can provide robust characterization of scattering objects even in the presence of noise.

AB We present a differential emission measure (DEM) analysis of the quiet solar corona on disk using data obtained by the Extreme-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) on Hinode. We show that the expected quiet-Sun DEM distribution can be recovered from judiciously selected lines, and that their average intensities can be reproduced to within 30%. We present a subset of these selected lines spanning the temperature range log T = 5.6-6.4 K that can be used to derive the DEM distribution reliably, including a subset of iron lines that can be used to derive the DEM distribution free of the possibility of uncertainties in the elemental abundances. The subset can be used without the need for extensive measurements, and the observed intensities can be reproduced to within the estimated uncertainty in the pre-launch calibration of EIS. Furthermore, using this subset, we also demonstrate that the quiet coronal DEM distribution can be recovered on size scales down to the spatial resolution of the instrument (1 '' pixels). The subset will therefore be useful for studies of small-scale spatial inhomogeneities in the coronal temperature structure, for example, in addition to studies requiring multiple DEM derivations in space or time. We apply the subset to 45 quiet-Sun data sets taken in the period 2007 January to April, and show that although the absolute magnitude of the coronal DEM may scale with the amount of released energy, the shape of the distribution is very similar up to at least log T similar to 6.2 K in all cases. This result is consistent with the view that the shape of the quiet-Sun DEM ismainly a function of the radiating and conducting properties of the plasma and is fairly insensitive to the location and rate of energy deposition. This universal DEM may be sensitive to other factors such as loop geometry, flows, and the heating mechanism, but if so they cannot vary significantly from quiet-Sun region to region.

AB The influence of thermal expansion on the dynamics of thick to moderately thick premixed flames (flame thickness less than or comparable to the channel height) for a variable-density flow in a narrow, rectangular channel is explored. The study is conducted within the framework of the zero-Mach-number, variable-density Navier-Stokes equations. Both adiabatic and non-adiabatic channel walls are considered. A small Peclet number asymptotic solution is developed for steady, variable-density flame propagation in the narrow channel. The dynamics of channel flames are also examined numerically for O(1) Peclet numbers in configurations which include flame propagation in a semi-closed channel from the closed to the open end of the channel, flame propagation in a semi-closed channel towards the closed end of the channel and flame propagation in an open channel in which a Poiseuille flow (flame assisting or flame opposing) is imposed at the channel inlet. Comparisons of the finite-Peclet-number dynamics are made with the behaviour of the small-Peclet-number solutions. We also compare how thermal expansion modifies the flow dynamics from those determined by a constant-density model. The small-Peclet-number variable-density solution for a flame propagating in a circular pipe is given in the Appendix.

AB An analytical expression of the effective energy transfer velocity relating surface wind stress and energy dissipation is derived from the parameterization functions of wave energy dissipation and ocean surface friction coefficient. The equation is applied to analyses from two field experiments at very different stages of wave development. Discussions on relevant issues such as the effect of wind field steadiness, scaling, and spectral resolution are presented. A key result from this investigation is that the effective energy transfer velocity is confined in a narrow range, with the majority of data points within 1.5 and 3 m/s, over a wide range of wind speed (5-16 m/s) and dimensionless frequency (0.8-4.2) of the wavefield. A sharp increase in the energy transfer coefficient and effective energy transfer velocity occurs at a wind speed near 6 or 7 m/s. Data points that deviated significantly from the parameterization prediction appear to be associated with wind field unsteadiness, which is not accounted for in the formulation of parameterization function. The breaking process is local in space or time as well as in wave number or frequency. Global (mean) quantities such as dominant wave speed and wind friction velocity are not the proper scaling factor for the breaking velocity or energy transfer coefficient. The scaling factor should reflect the local characteristics (steepness, acceleration, or orbital velocity) of the wavefield that lead to waveform instability.

AB Born-Oppenheimer direct dynamics classical trajectory simulations of biomolecular collisions of PETN molecules have been performed to investigate the fundamental mechanisms of hypervelocity chemistry relevant to initiating reactions immediately behind the shock wavefront in energetic molecular crystals. The solidstate environment specifies the initial orientations of colliding molecules. The threshold velocities for initiating chemistry for a variety of crystallographic orientations were correlated with available experimental data oil anisotropic shock sensitivity of PETN. Collisions normal to the planes (001) and (110) were found to be most sensitive with threshold velocities oil the order of characteristic particle velocities in detonating PETN. The production of NO2 is the dominant reaction pathway in most of the reactive cases. The simulations show that the reactive chemistry, driven by dynamics rather than temperature during hypervelocity collisions, can occur at a very short time scale (10-(13) s) under highly nonequilibrium conditions.

AB The stable carbon isotope values of tetrachloroethene (PCE) and its degradation products were monitored during studies of biologically enhanced dissolution of PCE dense nonaqueous phase liquid (DNAPL) to determine the effect of PCE dissolution on observed isotope values. The degradation of PCE was monitored in a 2-dimensional model aquifer and in a pilot test cell (PTC) at Dover Air Force Base, both with emplaced PCE DNAPL sources. Within the plume down gradient from the source, the isotopic fractionation of dissolved PCE and its degradation products were consistent with those observed in biodegradation laboratory studies. However, close to the source zone significant shifts in the isotope values of dissolved PCE were not observed in either the model aquifer or PTC due to the constant input of newly dissolved, non fractionated PCE, and the small isotopic fractionation associated with PCE reductive dechlorination by the mixed microbial culture used. Therefore the identification of reductive dechlorination in the presence of PCE DNAPL was based upon the appearance of daughter products and the isotope values of those daughter products. An isotope model was developed to simulate isotope values of PCE during the dissolution and degradation of PCE adjacent to a DNAPL source zone. With the exception of very high degradation rate constants (>1/day) stable carbon isotope values of PCE estimated by the model remained within error of the isotope value of the PCE DNAPL, consistent with measured isotope values in the model aquifer and in the PTC.

AB The effects of surface imprinting oil the adsorption and desorption properties of benzene- and diethylbenzene-bridged periodic mesoporous organosilicas (PMOs) acting as GC stationary-phase preconcentration sorbents for benzene and xylene were examined. Surface-imprinted and nonimprinted PMOs with diethylbenzene (DEB), benzene (BENZ), and ethane (BTSE) bridges and nonimprinted mesoporous silica (MCM-41) were prepared via well-establislied surfactant templating synthetic methods. The imprinted materials were synthesized using a surfactant demonstrated to produce trinitrotoluene (TNT) selective sorbents with increased adsorption capacity for cresol and 4-nitrophenol as well as TNT. Powder XRD and nitrogen sorption measurements revealed that all of the materials were mesoporous with the DEB materials having a random pore structure and lower surface area than the other materials which had ordered pore structures. Result, for maximum uptake of benzene and p-xylene indicate a small but consistent positive effect on the adsorption of benzene and p-xylene due to surface imprinting. Comparing the surface area normalized uptakes (mg/m(2)) for materials having the same organic bridge with and without imprinting (DEB vs TDMI-DEB and BENZ vs TDMI-BENZ) shows that in seven of eight comparisons the imprinted analogue had a higher aromatic uptake. The imprinted samples showed higher weight normalized uptakes (mg/g) in five of eight cases. When used as a GC stationary phase, the organosilica materials yield more symmetrical chromatographic peaks and better separation than MCM-41, indicating superior trapping of BTX analytes, particularly at low concentrations. Additionally, these materials rapidly desorb the preconcentrated compounds.

AB We present a measurement technique for quantifying coupling between semiconductor quantum dots in an array. This technique employs magnetoconductance fluctuations to probe the decrease in the average spacing of the quantum energy levels as the electron wave functions in the dots undergo hybridization. Focusing on Ga0.25In0.75As dots, we investigate hybridization as the coupling strength is varied and the number of dots in the array is increased. Our technique reveals a significant drop in the average energy level spacing for multiple dot arrays, which is strong evidence for wave function hybridization.

AB We report on the effect of substrate miscut on the 2-dimensional interfacial structure and dielectric properties of the epitaxial Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3/MgO. Epitaxial Ba0.6Sr0.4TiO3 films on vicinal (001) MgO grown by pulsed-laser ablation were studied using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Plan-view TEM showed that the films grown on the substrate with miscut angles of 1.2 degrees 3.5 degrees and 5.3 degrees have lattice mismatches of -5.6%, -6.0% and -5.7% at the interface, larger than the values (-5.4%, -5.7% and -5.5%, respectively) obtained using cross-section TEM. The films grown on 1.2 degrees and 5.3 degrees miscut substrates consist of commensurate domains with sizes about 30 to 40 nm at the interface, significantly larger than those of 10 to 20 nm obtained for the films grown on the 3.5 degrees miscut substrate. The films with larger commensurate domains at the interface exhibit about 30% higher dielectric constant and dielectric tunability than those with smaller commensurate domains. Initial measurements show that their interfacial differences have a tremendous effect on the dielectric properties of the films. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

ID COFFEE ENEMAS; IRRIGATION; AUTOINTOXICATION; CONSTIPATION
AB The practice of colonic cleansing to promote general health and well-being continues to generate interest among the lay population. These practices are widely touted as adjuncts to improve vitality and as therapeutic modalities to minimize the symptoms, or prevent the actual development, of a variety of chronic disease states. The data supporting colonic cleansing and body "detoxification" have not been studied well in a systematic manner. This report describes a systematic review of the published literature of both the traditional and complementary and alternative medicine arenas that was performed in an attempt to qualify and quantify the value of colonic cleansing. The investigators concluded that there are no methodologically rigorous controlled trials of colonic cleansing to support the practice for general health promotion. Conversely, there are multiple case reports and case series that describe the adverse effects of colonic cleansing. The practice of colonic cleansing to improve or promote general health is not supported in the published literature and cannot be recommended at this time.

AB Background: Patellofemoral pain syndrome is one of the most common chronic knee injuries; however, little research has been done to determine the risk factors for this injury.
Hypothesis: Altered lower extremity kinematics and kinetics, decreased strength, and altered postural measurements will be risk factors.
Study Design: Cohort study ( prognosis); Level of evidence, 2.
Methods: A total of 1597 participants were enrolled in this investigation and prospectively followed from the date of their enrollment ( July 2005, July 2006, or July 2007) through January 2008, a maximum of 2.5 years of follow-up. Each participant underwent baseline data collection during their pre-freshman summer at the United States Naval Academy. Baseline data collection included 3-dimensional motion analysis during a jump-landing task, 6 lower extremity isometric strength tests, and postural alignment measurements ( navicular drop and Q angle).
Results: Risk factors for the development of patellofemoral pain syndrome included decreased knee flexion angle, decreased vertical ground-reaction force, and increased hip internal rotation angle during the jump-landing task. Additionally, decreased quadriceps and hamstring strength, increased hip external rotator strength, and increased navicular drop were risk factors for the development of patellofemoral pain syndrome.
Conclusion: Multiple modifiable risk factors for patellofemoral pain syndrome pain have been identified in this investigation. To decrease the incidence of this chronic injury, the risk factors for patellofemoral pain syndrome need to be targeted in injury prevention programs.

AB Background: Gait velocity measurements provide functional assessment of patients with diverse diseases and allow predictions about future adverse events. The optimal distance for patient classification is uncertain. Methods: Participants were identified in internal medicine clinics and had to be independently ambulatory. Study investigators collected medical information, used a qualitative test to assess gait and balance (G and B score), and measured gait velocity with a timed 100-foot walk. Results: One hundred eighty-four patients participated in this study. The mean age was 57.8 +/- 12.7 years; 50% of the participants were men. The mean gait speed was 3.33 +/- 0.71 ft/sec. Gait speed decreased with age and with body mass index (BMI) and increased with height and male sex. Patients with more comorbidities had decreased speed (P < 0.01). There were significant correlations between gait speed and grip strength (P < 0.01) and between lower G and B scores and slower gait speeds (P < 0.01). G and B scores were negatively correlated with age, BMI, and certain diagnoses. They also predicted risk for past falls. The mean heart rate change during the test was 8 beats per minute. Patients in the highest quartile for heart rate change had lower gait speeds than patients in the other 3 quartiles, suggesting physiologic impairment. Conclusions: A 100-foot walk test in clinic patients provides a practical functional assessment. Gait speed was slower in patients with multiple comorbidities and poor balance. Patients with increased heart rate responses during this test seem to have physiologic impairment. This test has the potential to predict adverse events and to quantitatively determine responses to therapeutic interventions but needs prospective evaluation in clinical studies.

AB Successful establishment of a Plasmodium vivax sporozoite challenge model in humans is described. Eighteen healthy adult, malaria-naive volunteers were randomly allocated to Groups A-C and exposed to 3 +/- 1, 6 +/- 1, and 9 +/- 1 bites of Anopheles albimanus mosquitoes infected with P vivax, respectively. Seventeen volunteers developed signs and symptoms consistent with malaria, and geometric mean prepatent periods of 11.1 days (9.3-11) for Group A; 10.8 days (9.8-11.9) for Group B; and 10.6 days (8.7-12.4) for Group C, with no statistically significant difference among groups (Kruskal-Wallis, P = 0.70). One volunteer exposed to eight mosquito bites did not develop a parasitemia. No differences in parasite density were observed and all individuals successfully recovered after anti-malarial treatment. None of the volunteers developed parasite relapses within an 18-month follow-up. In conclusion, malaria-naive volunteers can be safely and reproducibly infected with bites of 2-10 An. albimanus mosquitoes carrying P vivax. sporozoites. This challenge method is suitable for vaccine and anti-malarial drug testing.

TI Radiometry and metrology of a phase zone plate measured by extreme
ultraviolet synchrotron radiation
SO APPLIED OPTICS
LA English
DT Article
ID OPTICAL-CONSTANTS
AB The diffraction efficiency, focal length, and other radiometric and metrology properties of a phase zone plate were measured by using monochromatic synchrotron radiation in the 7-18.5 nm wavelength range. The zone plate was composed of molybdenum zones having a 4 mm outer diameter and 70 nm nominal thickness and supported on a 100 nm thick silicon nitride membrane. The diffraction efficiency was enhanced by the phase shift of the radiation passing through the zones. The measured first-order efficiency was in good agreement with the calculated efficiency. The properties of the zone plate, particularly the small variation of the efficiency with off-axis angle, make it suitable for use in a radiometer to accurately measure the absolutely calibrated extreme ultraviolet emission from the Sun.

TI Laser decal transfer of freestanding microcantilevers and microbridges
SO APPLIED PHYSICS A-MATERIALS SCIENCE & PROCESSING

ID PROPERTY MEASUREMENT
AB Freestanding silver microcantilevers and microbridges were fabricated over trenches in Si substrates by the laser decal transfer process without the use of sacrificial layers or subsequent etch processes. Single laser pulses (355 nm, 30 ns FWHM) were used to directly transfer 200 nm thick silver nanopaste layers (5 ?m widex25 ?m long) over prepatterned Si substrates with 15 ?m wide trenches. By adjusting the position of the laser spot over the substrate, it was possible to directly deposit freestanding microcantilevers 7 to 9 ?m in length or 15-?m long microbridges over the trenches. Subsequent oven curing at 250A degrees C resulted in sintering of the Ag nanoparticles without greatly affecting the shape and form of the transfers. Laser vibrometry experiments yielded fundamental resonance frequencies in vacuum of ?1-2 MHz for the microcantilevers and ?3 MHz for the microbridges. The fitted Q-factors averaged 1500 for the microcantilevers and 1400 for the microbridges. Overall, the measured resonances of the microbridges deviated from theoretical predictions in a manner suggesting a tensile residual stress state.

DT Review
ID GASTROINTESTINAL STROMAL TUMORS; PERINEURIOMA; MUCOSAL; RECTUM
AB Benign fibroblastic polyps of the colon are a recently described entity among mucosal polyps found in the colorectum. These polyps are typically discovered on routine screening colonoscopy within the distal colon. Benign fibroblastic polyps occur most commonly in adult women in the sixth decade of life. Histologically, benign fibroblastic polyps are bland spindle cell lesions that fill the lamina propria and displace the surrounding crypts. The spindle cell proliferation lacks atypia and significant mitotic activity. Hyperplastic changes are frequently present both in the adjacent epithelium and within the lesions. Immunohistochemically, the cells of benign fibroblastic polyps are invariably positive for vimentin with rare focal positivity for CD34 and smooth muscle actin. They are negative for CD117 and S100 protein. Ultrastructurally, benign fibroblastic polyps have features of fibroblastic differentiation. These polyps are benign with no reports, to our knowledge, of recurrence or metastasis. (Arch Pathol Lab Med. 2009; 133: 1872-1876)

AB Sixteen pulsars have been discovered so far in blind searches of photons collected with the Large Area Telescope on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. We here report the discovery of radio pulsations from two of them. PSR J1741-2054, with period P = 413 ms, was detected in archival Parkes telescope data and subsequently has been detected at the Green Bank Telescope (GBT). Its received flux varies greatly due to interstellar scintillation and it has a very small dispersion measure of DM = 4.7 pc cm(-3), implying a distance of approximate to 0.4 kpc and possibly the smallest luminosity of any known radio pulsar. At this distance, for isotropic emission, its gamma-ray luminosity above 0.1 GeV corresponds to 28% of the spin-down luminosity of (E) over dot = 9.4 x 10(33) erg s(-1). The gamma-ray profile occupies 1/3 of pulse phase and has three closely spaced peaks with the first peak lagging the radio pulse by delta = 0.29 P. We have also identified a soft Swift source that is the likely X-ray counterpart. In many respects PSR J1741-2054 resembles the Geminga pulsar. The second source, PSR J2032+4127, was detected at the GBT. It has P = 143 ms, and its DM = 115 pc cm(-3) suggests a distance of approximate to 3.6 kpc, but we consider it likely that it is located within the Cyg OB2 stellar association at half that distance. The radio emission is nearly 100% linearly polarized, and the main radio peak precedes by delta = 0.15 P the first of two narrow gamma-ray peaks that are separated by Delta = 0.50 P. The second peak has a harder spectrum than the first one, following a trend observed in young gamma-ray pulsars. Faint, diffuse X-ray emission in a Chandra image is possibly its pulsar wind nebula. The wind of PSR J2032+4127 is responsible for the formerly unidentified HEGRA source TeV J2032+4130. PSR J2032+4127 is coincident in projection with MT91 213, a Be star in Cyg OB2, although apparently not a binary companion of it.

AB We have designed and constructed a second-generation version of the dispersed Fourier transform spectrograph, or dFTS. This instrument combines a spectral interferometer with a dispersive spectrograph to provide high-accuracy, high-resolution optical spectra of stellar targets. The new version, dFTS2, is based upon the design of our prototype, with several modifications to improve the system throughput and performance. We deployed dFTS2 to the Steward Observatory 2.3 m Bok Telescope from 2007 June to 2008 June, and undertook an observing program on spectroscopic binary stars, with the goal of constraining the velocity amplitude K of the binary orbits with 0.1% accuracy, a significant improvement over most of the orbits reported in the literature. We present results for radial velocity reference stars and orbit solutions for single-lined spectroscopic binaries.

Introduction: A better understanding of individual differences in the human stress response may enhance prevention and treatment of operational stress reactions In this study, we examined the relationships of anger experience and expression to stress indices during daily living and ill response to military survival training in 4.5 men Methods. Prior to participation in survival training, subjects completed self-report measures of perceived stress and anger. The revised Impact of Event Scale was then administered 24 h after the conclusion of training. Results: As expected, outward anger expression was positively associated with perceived stress during free living (P < 0 0125) outward anger expression, inward anger expression, and angry temperament then combined to account for 25%, of the variance in psychological impact of a stressful mock-captivity challenge Conclusion: Anger characteristics are associated with human stress endpoints, both during daily living and in response to all ecologically valid stressor These findings may assist in the prevention and treatment of operational stress reactions.

AB Complementary molecular dynamics (MD) and finite-element (FE) simulations of model diamond nanocomposites (MDN) subjected to nanoindentation were undertaken to understand how contact behavior pertaining to the surface morphology of MDN surfaces can be spanned from the molecular to the continuum scale. The MD simulations determined that the behavior inside the contact region is influenced by atomic-scale features on the tip and surface, indent location, grain tilt and roughness of the MDN surfaces. In addition, if the atomic-scale surface morphology is treated as a surface roughness within the FE simulations, the same grain orientations, and similar elastic properties are used for both MD and FE simulations, there is reasonable agreement between the contact pressures for relatively low indentation loads and shallow substrates. For larger loads, the contact pressures from the FE simulations deviate somewhat from the MD results near the center of the contact. The contact behavior for length scales that are prohibitive for MD models (e.g., deep substrates) was also examined using FE simulations. This allowed for a detailed investigation of how contact conditions and stick-slip events within the contact evolve as a function of contact pressure and continuum surface stresses.

AB Field observations and laboratory testing were used to conclude that aggressive localized corrosion of carbon steel pilings in Duluth-Superior Harbor, Minnesota and Wisconsin, is caused by the following sequence of biological, chemical. and physical events. Iron-oxidizing bacteria colonize the carbon steel sheet pilings and produce tubercles, made up of intact and/or partly degraded remains of bacterial cells mixed with amorphous hydrous ferric oxides. The reducing conditions beneath the tubercles cause copper dissolved in the water to precipitate. A galvanic couple is established between the copper layer and the iron substratum. Ice scouring breaks the tubercles. Exposure of the copper-covered iron to oxygen causes the galvanic current to increase. The result is aggressive localized corrosion.

AB The occluded solvent in a mixed ligand metal-organic framework has been displaced by n-hexanol, chloroform, and nitrobenzene in a crystal to crystal guest exchange. The X-ray structures of the three new solvent addticts of Zn(2)NDC(2)DPNI(2) reveal the complete replacement of N',N-dimethylformamide with the new guest. Structural changes to the framework geometry in response to the size of the incoming guest are also exhibited. These new frameworks are characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, thermal gravimetric analysis coupled with infrared spectroscopy, and cross-polarization magic angle spinning NMR.

AB The recently refocused effort on anthrax (AVA) vaccination has been the source of much ethical and legal deliberation. However, the factors affecting one's decision to receive any or all of the vaccine doses are poorly understood. Using a self-administered questionnaire, we sought to evaluate AVA coverage among a cross-section of deployed active duty US military personnel and identify factors associated with receipt of the vaccine.
A questionnaire was distributed to U. S. military personnel deployed to Iraq, Afghanistan and surrounding areas. Questions solicited demographic information, AVA vaccination status, and agreement to several questions attempting to assess the respondent's knowledge and attitudes regarding anthrax and the AVA vaccine.
Of the 1,743 participants, 40.6% reported receiving all AVA vaccine doses. Older age and service in the Army were associated with an increased likelihood of AVA vaccination. Additionally, those who neither agreed nor disagreed with specific questions commonly rejected the AVA vaccine compared to those who agreed or disagreed to the same question. The only factor clearly associated with receipt or rejection of the AVA vaccine was whether the respondent thought that the anthrax vaccine is as safe as other vaccines.
The individual decision to receive the AVA vaccine is most likely a multifactorial decision process even in a military population. Targeted educational interventions should be developed to increase AVA coverage and further understand drivers of vaccine receipt.

AB High-stress situations, such as combat deployments, are a potential risk factor for hypertension. Although stress is postulated to increase blood pressure, the underlying role of stress on hypertension is not well established. We sought to determine the relations between combat deployment-induced stress and hypertension. The Millennium Cohort baseline questionnaire (2001-2003) was completed by 77 047 US active-duty and Reserve/National Guard members. Follow-up was completed by 55 021 responders approximate to 3 years later (2004-2006). Multivariable logistic regression was used to estimate the 3-year risk of newly reported hypertension, adjusting for general and mental health, demographics, and occupational and behavioral characteristics. After applying exclusion criteria, our analyses included 36 061 service members. Subanalyses of deployers included 8829 participants. Newly reported hypertension was identified in 6.9% of the cohort between baseline and follow-up, many of whom had deployed on military operations in support of the conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. After adjusting, deployers who experienced no combat exposures were less likely to report hypertension than nondeployers (odds ratio: 0.77; 95% CI: 0.67 to 0.89). Among deployers, those reporting multiple combat exposures were 1.33 times more likely to report hypertension compared with noncombat deployers (95% CI: 1.07 to 1.65). Although military deployers, in general, had a lower incidence of hypertension than nondeployers, deployment with multiple stressful combat exposures appeared to be a unique risk factor for newly reported hypertension.

AB We present the results of our Thousand Asteroid Light Curve Survey (TALCS) conducted with the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope in September 2006. Our untargeted survey detected 828 Main Belt asteroids to a limiting magnitude of g' similar to 22.5 corresponding to a diameter range of 0.4 km <= D <= 10 km. Of these, 278 objects had photometry of sufficient quality to perform rotation period fits. We debiased the observations and light curve fitting process to determine the true distribution of rotation periods and light curve amplitudes of Main Belt asteroids. We confirm a previously reported excess in the fraction of fast rotators but find a much larger excess of slow rotating asteroids (similar to 15% of our sample). A few percent of objects in the TALCS size range have large light Curve amplitudes of similar to 1 mag. Fits to the debiased distribution of light curve amplitudes indicate that the distribution of triaxial ellipsoid asteroid shapes is proportional to the square of the axis ratio, (b/a)(2), and may be bi-modal. Finally, we find six objects with rotation periods that may be less than 2 h with diameters between 400 m and 1.5 km, well above the break-up limit for a gravitationally-bound aggregate. Our debiased data indicate that this population represents <4% of the Main Belt in the 1-10 km size range. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB A newly quantified photodiode nonlinearity is derived from a previously known bias voltage-dependent responsivity. For an InGaAs p-i-n photodiode, measured harmonic distortion is shown to be dominated by this derived nonlinearity mechanism. It is also shown that electron ionization in the depletion region of the photodiode is the source of the voltage-dependent responsivity.

AB This paper presents a new algorithm for a reconfigurable distributed domain-oriented atomic object service, called DO-RAMBO, which stands for Domain-Oriented Reconfigurable Atomic Memory for Basic Objects. This service is suitable for inclusion as a middleware system service for distributed applications requiring atomic read/write data. The implementation substantially extends and refines the abstract RAMBO algorithm of Lynch and Shvartsman that supports individual atomic objects. In this paper, domains are introduced to allow the users to group related atomic objects. The new implementation manages configurations on the basis of domains, significantly improving the utility and the performance of the resulting service. DO-RAMBO guarantees consistency under asynchrony, message loss, node crashes, new node arrivals, and node departures. We present the formal algorithm development for DO-RAMBO and give analytical and empirical results that illustrate the benefit of the new approach.

AB Limiting the defect-mediated dark currents in type-II superlattice (T2SL) IR photodiodes remains the key challenge to focal plane arrays (FPAs) based on this material system. In spite of its larger effective mass to suppress tunneling and more than an order of magnitude longer Auger lifetime, the T2SL photodiode performance still lags behind that of the incumbent HgCdTe-based technology. The tunneling and generation-recombination currents can be strongly suppressed by employing a "W" T2SL structure and gradually increasing the energy gap in the depletion region. For maximum quantum efficiency, this graded-gap geometry is combined in a hybrid structure with two-constituent T2SL absorbers that exhibit roughly twice the diffusion length of the "W" structure. Finally. if the etch used to isolate neighboring pixels is stopped just beyond the junction in the graded-gap device, narrow-gap regions are not exposed and the total sidewall area is reduced by a factor of 20. We have combined all of these approaches to produce a 10.5 mu m cutoff FPA with diffusion-limited performance and noise-equivalent differential temperature (NEDT) of 35 mK at 70 K.

AB Infrared detectors based on quantum wells and quantum dots have attracted a lot of attention in the past few years. Our previous research has reported on the development of the first generation of quantum dots-in-a-well (DWELL) focal plane arrays, which are based on InAs quantum dots embedded in an InGaAs well having GaAs barriers. This focal plane array has successfully generated a two-color imagery in the mid-wave infrared (i.e. 3-5 mu m) and the long-wave infrared (i.e. 8-12 mu m) at a fixed bias voltage, Recently, the DWELL device has been further modified by embedding InAs quantum dots in InGaAs and GaAs double wells with AlGaAs barriers, leading to a less strained InAs/InGaAs/GaAs/AlGaAs heterostructure. This is expected to improve the operating temperature while maintaining a low dark current level. This paper examines 320 x 256 double DWELL based focal plane arrays that have been fabricated and hybridized with an Indigo 9705 read-out integrated circuit using Indium-bump (flip-chip) technology. The spectral tunability is quantified by examining images and determining the transmittance ratio (equivalent to the photocurrent ratio) between mid-wave and long-way infrared filter targets. Calculations were performed for a bias range from 0.3 to 1.0 V. The results demonstrate that the mid-wave transmittance dominates at these low bias voltages, and the transmittance ratio continuously varies over different applied biases. Additionally, radiometric characterization, including array uniformity and measured noise equivalent temperature difference for the double DWELL devices is computed and compared to the same results from the original first generation DWELL. Finally, higher temperature operation is explored. Overall, the double DWELL devices had lower noise equivalent temperature difference and higher uniformity, and worked at higher temperature (70 K and 80 K) than the first generation DWELL device.

ID INTERFACES RANKING
AB Continuing and expanding on the original work that Michael H. Rothkopf established in 1996, this paper presents the eighth ranking of universities according to their contributions to the INFORMS practice literature. Fittingly, we have named them the "Rothkopf Rankings" in honor of their originator, a scholar and practitioner with a passion for applied, effective, and influential operations research. The rankings assigned are based on two metrics: one measures visibility (the number of times a university is listed as the primary academic affiliation in the INFORMS practice literature), and the second measures yield (the equivalent number of INFORMS practice papers attributable to each university based on author primary academic affiliation). For US universities, the Naval Postgraduate School earns the top ranking for visibility and the second for yield, and the Colorado School of Mines earns the top ranking for yield and the second for visibility. For non-US universities, the University of Chile earns the top ranking for both visibility and yield.

AB The effect of the load ratio, R, or the mean-stress on fatigue life has been recognized for more than a hundred years. In considering the mean-stress effects in the stress-life (S-N) approach, research efforts have been mostly concentrated in establishing correlating functions in terms of the flow stress or yield stress or the ultimate tensile stress, etc., by taking, say, R = -1 test results as a reference. Very little effort has been made towards understanding the role of stress range Delta sigma and the maximum stress sigma(max), (or sigma(mean)) in the fatigue crack nucleation and propagation and also how to relate this to both the stress-life and the fracture-mechanics descriptions.
In this paper we first examine crack nucleation based on the stress-life approach using a two-parameter requirement in terms of Delta sigma and sigma(max) and then connect it to crack propagation using the Kitagawa diagram as the incipient crack grows to become a long crack. Since stress-life data include both nucleation and propagation, the connection of the safe-life approach to the fracture-mechanics analysis is pertinent. Comparison of the present analysis with experimental data taken from the literature demonstrates that a two-parameter approach in terms of Delta sigma and sigma(max). forms a basis for the S-N analysis.

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

AB The fatigue crack growth rates, obtained in high vacuum and in ambient air, of ultrafine grain (UFG) Al-7.5Mg (grain size similar to 250 nm) at various load ratios were compared to those of powder-metallurgy (P/M) Al-7Mg (grain size similar to 2 mu m) and ingot-metallurgy (I/M) Al-7Mg (grain size similar to 100 mu m). In both vacuum and ambient air, fatigue crack growth rates at all stress ratios decrease with increasing grain size. The fatigue crack growth threshold (Delta K(th)) follows the reverse order, increasing with increasing grain size. These trends are interpreted in terms of fracture surface roughness effects that are correlated with grain size. In vacuum, the thresholds of all three materials exhibit no load ratio dependency at load ratios from 0.1 to 0.5. In air, the threshold of UFG Al-7.5Mg exhibits weak load ratio dependency, while P/M and I/M Al-7Mg exhibit modest load ratio dependency. The environmental effect on the fatigue crack growth rates is assessed by determining the difference in crack growth driving force (Delta K) between air and vacuum. It was found that the environmental contribution to the driving force of all three materials is similar, nearly independent of grain size. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

approach to fatigues
ID UNIFIED APPROACH; STRESS-RATIO; THRESHOLD; ALLOYS
AB Fatigue crack growth is represented using fracture mechanics parameters, Delta K and K(max). Environmental effects that depend on time and stress affect the fatigue behavior predominantly through K(max) parameter. The superimposed effects of environment and stress are seemingly complex. We have developed a methodology for classifying and separating the effects of environment on fatigue crack growth. A "crack growth trajectory map" is constructed from the behavior of Delta K versus K(max) for various constant crack growth rate curves. A "pure fatigue" behavior is defined, in terms of environment-free behavior, such as in high vacuum. Deviation from this "pure fatigue" reference of the trajectory map is associated with either monotonic mode of fracture or to the superimposed environmental effects on crack growth. Using such an approach, called "Unified Damage Approach", we classify the environmental effects in almost all materials into only five types. Each of these types shows the combination of time and stress affecting the crack tip driving force, and thus Delta K and K(max). The trajectory map depicts the changing material resistance due to the changing crack growth mechanisms with increasing crack growth rate, as reflected in terms of the applied stress intensities, Delta K and K(max). Thus the trajectory map provides a useful tool to separate the contributions from pure fatigue and superimposed monotonic modes and the governing crack growth mechanisms as a function of load-ratio, crack growth rate and environment. Understanding and quantification of the governing mechanisms would help in developing a more fundamental and reliable life prediction method. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB The fatigue crack growth (FCG) behavior of 7075-T651 aluminum alloy was studied under constant and variable amplitude loadings in vacuum, air and 1% NaCl solution. In the study of constant amplitude loading fatigue, the stress ratios were 0.1 and 0.85 and the loading frequency was 10 Hz. In the study of variable amplitude loading fatigue, the load spectrums were tension type and tension-compression type, and the average loading frequency was about 5 Hz. The results of FCG tests, under constant and variable amplitude loadings, validated the unified two parameter driving force model, accounting for the residual stress and stress ratio effects on fatigue crack growth.

The specimens were subjected to identical LCF tests at strain ratio R of -1 and frequency of 5 Hz in three environments: vacuum, air and 1% NaCl solution pH 2. A separate group of specimens was pre-corroded in 1% NaCl solution and then LCF-tested in air. Their strain-life relations and cyclic stress-strain responses were investigated and compared. Furthermore, the fracture surface morphology was evaluated to find the association of LCF behavior and fractographic features under different environmental conditions. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB This research explores key aspects involved in the process of managing risk associated with acquisition projects within the US Department of Defense (DOD). First, various US Government Accountability Office reports are analyzed to identify the strengths and weaknesses of the DOD's overall program management practices, as well as individual projects. Then, the evolution and progress of United States Army's Future Combat Systems project is examined in detail as a case study to substantiate the argument that insufficient risk management has contributed to project delays and cost overruns significantly.
Poor risk management performance and practices are not unique to the Army, but arises from a system bred into the process of gaining approval to implement projects in the DOD. Incorporating a comprehensive risk management plan in the planning phase and filling key project management positions with personnel trained to recognize sound proposals from contractors would make significant strides toward improving overall project management practices in the DOD.

AB SETTING: Great Lakes, Illinois, USA.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the performance of an interferon-gamma release assay (T-SPOT (R).TB) and tuberculin skin test (TST) in a population with a low prevalence of tuberculosis (TB) that was predominantly US-born and not bacille Calmette-Guerin-vaccinated.
DESIGN: A total of 414 subjects with absence of a previous positive TST were enrolled, of whom 326 yielded analyzable results for both TST and T-SPOT.TB.
RESULTS: Overall agreement between T-SPOT.TB and TST was 98.2% (95% CI 96.0-99.3). The specificity of T-SPOT.TB in individuals judged to be at low risk for TB infection was 98.9% (95% CI 96.9-99.8). Of 326 subjects, 8 (2.5%) had a positive T-SPOT.TB result, six of which occurred in the absence of a positive TST. Of these, at least three appeared to have risk factors, suggesting the possibility of a false-negative TST result.
CONCLUSION: Because of the excellent agreement between the TSPOT.TB and the TST, either test can serve as an effective diagnostic tool in populations at low risk for TB. As the tests have specific advantages and disadvantages, health care providers have leeway in choosing the most appropriate test for the population they are treating.

AB Appendicitis is the most common nonobstetric cause of abdominal pain in pregnancy. Pregnant patients may present with an atypical examination, thereby challenging clinicians. National specialty organizations recommend that nonionizing imaging options be pursued to aid in early diagnosis. Multiple studies suggest that magnetic resonance imaging technology is a safe and accurate alternative to ionizing imaging such as X-ray or computerized tomography imaging. A standard protocol that incorporates magnetic resonance imaging technology in the evaluation of the pregnant patient is proposed.

AB Enzymes and biochemical mechanisms essential to survival are under extreme selective pressure and are highly conserved through evolutionary time. We applied this evolutionary concept to barnacle cement polymerization, a process critical to barnacle fitness that involves aggregation and cross-linking of proteins. The biochemical mechanisms of cement polymerization remain largely unknown. We hypothesized that this process is biochemically similar to blood clotting, a critical physiological response that is also based on aggregation and cross-linking of proteins. Like key elements of vertebrate and invertebrate blood clotting, barnacle cement polymerization was shown to involve proteolytic activation of enzymes and structural precursors, transglutaminase cross-linking and assembly of fibrous proteins. Proteolytic activation of structural proteins maximizes the potential for bonding interactions with other proteins and with the surface. Transglutaminase cross-linking reinforces cement integrity. Remarkably, epitopes and sequences homologous to bovine trypsin and human transglutaminase were identified in barnacle cement with tandem mass spectrometry and/or western blotting. Akin to blood clotting, the peptides generated during proteolytic activation functioned as signal molecules, linking a molecular level event ( protein aggregation) to a behavioral response (barnacle larval settlement). Our results draw attention to a highly conserved protein polymerization mechanism and shed light on a long-standing biochemical puzzle. We suggest that barnacle cement polymerization is a specialized form of wound healing. The polymerization mechanism common between barnacle cement and blood may be a theme for many marine animal glues.

DE solid oxide fuel cells
ID EXPERIMENTAL VALIDATION; SENSITIVITY; SOFC
AB Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) offer many potential benefits as an energy conversion device. This paper addresses experimental validation of a numerical SOFC model that has been developed. Results are compared at steady state operation for temperatures ranging from 1073 K to 1173 K and for H(2) gas concentrations fuel supplies of 10-90% with a balance of N(2). The results agree well with a maximum of 13.3% difference seen between the numerical and experimental results, which is within the limit of the experimental uncertainties and the material constants that are measured, with most comparisons well below this level. It is concluded that since the model is very sensitive to material properties and temperature that for the best results they should be as specific as possible to the experiment. These specific properties were demonstrated in this paper and a validation of a full fuel cell model, with a concentration on the anode, was presented.

AB Objective: The purpose of this study is to describe the musculoskeletal rehabilitation model used to care for combat and severely wounded or ill US military service members at an integrated Comprehensive Combat and Complex Casualty Care center located at Naval Medical Center San Diego.
Methods: Through a collaborative and iterative process, providers from the various services included at the Comprehensive Combat and Complex Casualty Care program developed a description of the integration of services provided at this location.
Results: After construction of the facility in 2007, the program has provided services for approximately 2 years. Eighteen different health care providers from 10 different specialties provide integrated musculoskeletal services, which include primary care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, vestibular therapy, gait analysis, prosthetics, recreational therapy, and chiropractic care. At the time of this writing (early 2009), the program had provided musculoskeletal rehabilitation care to approximately 500 patients, 58 with amputations, from the operational theater, Veterans Affairs, other military treatment facilities, and local trauma centers.
Conclusion: The complex nature of combat wounded and polytrauma patients requires an integrated and interdisciplinary team that is innovative, adaptable, and focused on the needs of the patient. This article presents a description of the model and the experiences of our musculoskeletal rehabilitation team; it is our hope that this article will assist other centers and add to the small but emerging literature on this topic.

AB Remote sensing and in situ observations, and model simulations made during the Dynamics of the Adriatic in Real Time (DART) project in the central Adriatic Sea during 2006 reveal intense mesoscale eddy activity in the West Adriatic Current (WAC) system, that flows along the Italian coast. We investigate the origin, scale and rate of evolution of these features, and consider their potential contributions to across-shelf exchange, as a basis for planning future operational coastal prediction and monitoring programs. Predictions from a regional Adriatic Sea implementation of the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) are assessed using observations from satellites, current meter moorings, and ship hydrographic transects.
Near Cape Gargano in summer, mesoscale eddies and filaments observed in remote sensing imagery and in situ data exhibit horizontal and vertical scales of about 30 km and 25 m, respectively. The observed eddies develop along the WAC front under transient wind conditions, while a quasi-permanent anti-cyclonic circulation appears downstream of the cape. NCOM model predictions show that well-organized, multiple-eddy features appear, grow in unison, then dissipate along the coast West of Cape Gargano in response to transient along-shelf wind forcing, while east of it individual eddies are generated by interaction of the WAC main stream with the bathymetry surrounding the cape. The eddies evolve over time scales of a few days to a week in response to forcing transients. Moderate to strong northwest winds compress the WAC coastward and suppress the instabilities, while relaxing northwest winds or shifts to southeast winds expand the WAC and enhance instability growth. Together with entrained filaments of coastal water, the eddies translate, stretch and rotate in response to WAC horizontal advection and shear. The qualitative character and evolution of the modeled features agree with the observations, and model statistics reveal patterns of variability on monthly and seasonal time scales that are consistent with the appearance of individual eddies in both the model results and observations.
In the model, patterns of upwelling and downwelling associated with the WAC main stream and eddies may be linked to dynamical characteristics of the WAC flow and specific bathymetric features. Under wintertime conditions, theoretical arguments predict an upwelling response as flow divergence changes absolute vorticity where the WAC rounds the cape, while Ekman pumping driven by surface winds or bottom stress and associated secondary circulation could explain upwelling and downwelling patches appearing around the rims of individual eddies. The upwelling dynamics are complicated by seasonal stratification effects and bathymetric features, and more work is needed to elucidate these processes.
Based on their frequent occurrence, large size compared to the shelf width, high intensity and current shear, and secondary circulations, the eddies and filaments could contribute significantly to across-shelf exchange and coastal/deep-ocean mixing, with important implications for coastal monitoring and prediction. Their generation and evolution present special challenges for coastal prediction, but our results demonstrate that combined use of remote sensing imagery and numerical model simulations can yield valuable insight into such processes, and thereby help plan future monitoring and prediction efforts.

AB The internal waves in the south of the Strait of Messina (Italy) are studied using observational data and numerical simulations. The observational data consisted of SAR images, XBT probes, CTD yoyos and thermistor string profiles from the Coastal Ocean Acoustic Changes at High Frequencies (COACH06) cruise. The numerical Lamb model was used to solve the fully nonlinear, nonhydrostatic Boussinesq equations on an f-plane. The model is 2.5 dimensional with spatial variation in a vertical plane extending along depth and in along-stream direction, and neglects derivatives in cross-stream direction.
Eleven out of fifteen SAR images contained internal wave events for the month of October 2006. From these images, we estimated some of the internal wave characteristics: a least square fit of the front positions of the southwards propagating internal wave trains gives a propagation speed of 1.00 m s(-1) and a time of release of the bore of about 2 h after maximum northwards tidal flow at Punta Pezzo. Nonhydrostatic dispersion leads to a wavelength increase between the first two internal solitary waves of the trains of 40 m km(-1).
Our in-situ data were used to initialize and evaluate the Lamb model. An EOF analysis was applied to the data and the model outputs. The first three empirical functions contain over 99% of the variability. The data and the model results are in very good qualitative and quantitative agreement, giving a propagation depth of the internal solitary wave train around 90 m with a pycnocline oscillating from 80 to 130 m.
Using the first two EOFs, an original method for detecting internal waves was developed by analyzing the scatter diagram of the first EOF projection coefficient versus the second EOF projection coefficient. This distribution has a specific "crescent shape" showing that the first two projection coefficients are not independent in the presence of internal wave events. The "crescent shape" signature of the internal waves can be used as an internal wave detector. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB During the MREA07 trial, off the NW coast of Italy in the late spring and summer of 2007, Navy Coastal Ocean Modeling (NCOM) multiple nests free-run ensembles were made available in real-time for the LASIE07 and BP07 events and a fairly complete set of observations were collected inside the inner nests domains. This note addresses the problem of predicting NCOM local unbiased 0-24 h forecast errors by perturbing a limited number of possible error sources through Monte-Carlo simulations, without local data assimilation. It discusses preliminary results using the Ensemble Transform [Bishop, C.H., and Toth. Z., 1999: Ensemble transformation and adaptive observations. journal of the Atmospheric Sciences, 56,1748-1765] to calibrate the ensemble spread by adjusting its characteristics (spread-skill relationship and magnitude) to an observed or pre-estimated error field. A small (10 members) ensemble of free runs was used for water column temperature forecast Root Mean Square (RMS) error prediction. After being post-processed they were compared with observed errors and those estimated using time variability as an error proxy. The ensemble runs were generated through atmospheric forcing perturbations using the space-time deformation method as proposed by [Hong, H.X., Bishop, C., 2007. Ensemble and probabilistic forecasting. IUGG XXIV General Assembly 2007, Perugia, Italy. 2-13 July], keeping independent initial conditions. Because at the starting time all runs shared the same IC, the ensemble was run for roughly two weeks for spinning up and then used during the following 10 days for data comparisons, during which the ensemble spread did not diverge and was consistent with the observed dynamics. Comparisons of ensemble spread of temperature profiles with local observed errors and time variability (assumed as an error proxy) showed that they were consistent through this 10 day analysis period, with performances above the non-calibrated ensemble estimates and time-variability used as error proxy.

AB The SWAN (Simulating Waves Nearshore) wave model using wind inputs generated by the ALADIN 8-km, operational high-resolution, atmospheric model was run in real-time to provide surface waves forecast for the semi-enclosed Adriatic Sea in support of the "Dynamics of the Adriatic in Real-Time" (DART) field experiments. Together with predictions from other wave and wind models, the successful prediction of a high sea-state event by this model led to a real-time shifting of planned operations while at sea, allowing five ADCP moorings to be deployed just before a bora storm and associated storm waves arrived. The model was also able to simulate the spatial gradients in significant wave height observed by in-situ and remote-sensing measurements for a particular sirocco storm case study, providing an additional perspective in aiding interpretation of the model output of features. To further quantify prediction skill, the wave forecast performance over a 12-month period was evaluated against in-situ and altimeter measurements over the region. Correlation coefficients between forecast and in-situ measured significant wave heights were from 0.82 to 0.91 for the 24-h forecast and from 0.78 to 0.88 for the 48-h forecast. However, best-fit slope comparisons with in-situ wave data at five coastal locations show the forecast wave heights were underpredicted by 10% to 30%. Best-fit slope comparisons between modeled wind speeds, U(10), and significant wave heights, H(s), and altimeter-derived measurements show that model U(10) was about 4% underpredicted, but H(s) was underpredicted by an average of 30%. The underprediction of SWAN H(s) has a very significant location-dependent geographical variation ranging from 10% to over 50%. In addition, the wave model comparison with altimeter H(s) shows a broad region of scatter index exceeding 0.4 along and offshore of the central Croatian coast. Elsewhere the scatter index is generally around 0.3. Compared to previous studies we found that using higher-resolution wind forcing with realistic orography decreased the U(10) underestimation bias, but the magnitude of H(s) underestimation bias did not correspondingly decrease, suggesting that wave model dynamics or wind-wave Coupling deserves further investigation.

SO JOURNAL OF MARINE SYSTEMS

DT Article
DE Bathymetry; Mine countermeasures; Multi-beam sonar
AB The effectiveness of mine countermeasures is dependent, in part, on how well warfighters know the ocean environment. Often, knowledge is outdated, in error or absent, requiring rapid environmental assessment on-scene. One way to obtain this assessment is to make dual use of the tactical data from military sensors to extract environmental information. Here, we discuss calibration and data uncertainty associated with using the multibeam volume search sonar onboard a AN/AQS-20A towed mine hunting system to extract multibeam bathymetry data based on data sets obtained from five demonstration flights conducted off the coast of Panama City, Florida. We compare the extracted bathymetry to overlapping data sets from dedicated multibeam echo-sounder systems and find a bias correction for the system. We also identify inaccurate knowledge of the sound velocity profile as a source of measurement error, discuss mitigation of it where possible, and assess how this error affects the uncertainty of the bias correction.

AB This paper provides the first analysis of the seasonal evolution of the sonic layer depth (SLD) relative to the mixed layer depth (MILD) for the Aegean, Marmara, Black, and Azov Seas. SLID identifies the acoustic ducting capabilities of the upper ocean and is of interest to investigations of upper ocean acoustics. A monthly SLID climatology on a regular 0.25 degrees x 0.25 degrees grid is constructed from interpolation of available quality-controlled ocean temperature and salinity profiles using the kriging methodology. A four step pre-processing procedure is designed to reduce noise and the effects of sampling irregularities. Monthly SLD fields are then compared relative to the much more widely studied MILD as computed using four different methods from the recent scientific literature. The goals of this analysis are to characterize the SLID relative to the MILD and provide a means for computing SLID from limited hydrographic information and/or MLD estimates. Very deep SLID values are found during winter. in the Aegean and Black Seas, when the near surface temperature values become lower than the temperature below the permanent pycnocline. When this occurs, the SLD drops to the bottom while the MLD remains much shallower at the seasonal pycnocline. For the months of May through October the SLID tends to be less than 25 In for the entire region. It is demonstrated that MILD obtained from the four methodologies have high correlations with SLID over the annual cycle, indicating a robust relationship. As a result, SLID can be estimated using least squares regression coefficients when salinity is unavailable or when observation profiles do not extend to deeper levels. Published by Elsevier B.V.

TI Optimized deployment of autonomous underwater vehicles for
characterization of coastal waters
SO JOURNAL OF MARINE SYSTEMS
LA English
DT Article
DE AUV; Environment; Survey; Optimization; Mission; Planner
AB Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUV) have evolved most often with specific mission focus areas determined by the defense sponsor or commercial customer. These focus areas have driven platform design and capabilities, as well as the mission planners delivered with these vehicles. While these mission planners have a broad spectrum of sophistication in the interfaces, none provide substantial guidance to the operator in designing a track plan optimized for the physical environment. For some mission areas, survey design is relatively straight-forward. If 100% sensor coverage or over-sampling of an area are required. as is often the case for mine-clearance or industrial reconnaissance, the area of responsibility determines the boundaries, and an estimate of sensor sweep width determines the track spacing. There are other mission areas, however, where area boundaries are too large, and the dynamic parameters too variable, to allow full sensor coverage in a synoptic sense. In these cases, compromises in survey extent and resolution demand track optimization that is driven by vehicle number, speed and endurance trade-offs, spatial and temporal variability of the measured parameters, and environmental factors that physically influence AUV performance. Rapid Environmental Assessment (REA) is one critical mission area where survey optimization is essential, and the selection of waypoints, depths, and geometries to best characterize the changing physical environment with limited platforms and time becomes a critical challenge. Researchers at the Naval Undersea Warfare Division, Newport are using commercially available AUVs from OceanServer Technologies, Inc. (OSTI) with YSI oceanographic sensors to conduct REA surveys in shallow waters. Dynamic Graphics, Inc. (DGI) software is used to establish a 3-D grid and compare the incoming data log files from the AUV sensors with the developing detail of the oceanographic characterization. Confidence estimates are generated in near real-time to represent cost versus benefit of continued survey effort. On-board adjustments to initial survey design, such as increased track spacing, can result from this evaluation to reduce the survey effort and still meet the tactical requirements for accuracy and precision. Field experiments with OSTI AUVs in Lake Champlain, NY and South Watuppa Pond, MA in July, 2007 demonstrated that DGI software could develop high-fidelity data-centric 2-D and 3-D characterizations of environmental parameters with irregular trackline data. The characterizations were suitable for statistical evaluation in near-real time to assess the return on continued survey effort and to recognize dynamic areas for subsequent survey focus. For these environments, reductions in total survey effort of 50%-70% could be achieved with little loss in 2D- and 3D-grid fidelity or feature definition. While the potential for reduction in survey effort is a function of environmental variability, the strength of this approach lies in the ability to establish in-stride the minimum effort required for a fidelity threshold without a first-guess field or a priori knowledge. Processing times and results support future on-board, in-stride analysis by AUVs for survey re-planning to optimize track and depth plans. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Climatological fields of mixed layer depth (MLD) are presented over the Aegean, Marmara, Black and Azov Seas. Monthly fields of MLD are formed by historical individual temperature and salinity profiles from combination of various data sets with additional quality control procedures applied. Various definitions that are based solely on temperature (T) or those that include the impact of salinity (S) are applied to investigate the robustness in the pattern and values of the MLDs. Interpolation of the MLD fields to a 0.25 degrees x 0.25 degrees regular grid over the region is accomplished using a combination of median filter and ordinary kriging. Strong seasonal variability is noted in all regions. Given a density-based MLD criterion that includes both T and S, deep mixed layers (>200 m) are noted in the Aegean Sea, especially eastern part of the region during winter while MLDs are generally much shallower (<60 m) in the Black Sea. A criterion based on curvature method, which determines MILD according to first maximum of curvature of T may fail in representing deep MLDs in the Aegean Sea when the water column is well mixed. MLD fields obtained from all definitions are found to be strongly correlated to each other over the seasonal cycle, confirming the strong seasonal cycle. While the curvature method gives shallow MLDs only during winter, it has relatively large skill in comparison to the density-based MLD criterion. In general. MLD fields suffer from lack of input T and S profiles in the Marmara and Azov Seas, thus they may not be representative. Monthly MLD fields presented in this paper are available for various applications, such as mixed layer studies, ocean biology, ocean modeling and acoustic propagation. Published by Elsevier B.V.

DE Mediterranean Sea; Coastal winds; QuikSCAT; Land contamination; HYCOM
ID SEAWINDS SCATTEROMETER; BASIN; SCALE; LAYER
AB Interannual variability of wind speed at 10 m above the sea surface is investigated over the Mediterranean Sea, with a particular focus near land-sea boundaries. For this purpose, monthly mean winds are formed at a resolution of 0.25 degrees using twice-daily, rain-free, wind measurements calibrated to equivalent neutral winds from the QuikSCAT satellite during 2000-2006. A stability correction applied to these satellite-based winds reveals that the equivalent neutral winds are typically stronger by 0.2 ms(-1), and can even be stronger by >0.5 ms(-1) in some regions, including the Adriatic and Aegean Seas. Thus, the impact of air-sea stratification on the winds cannot be neglected, even on monthly time scales. Winds from a numerical weather prediction (NWP) model, the 0.5 degrees-resolution Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System (NOGAPS), are found to have close agreement with the satellite-based winds. However, major differences arise near coastal boundaries where the winds from NOGAPS over the sea are contaminated by wind values over the land. Land-sea mask values from NOGAPS are introduced to examine the extent of the contamination, which can be severe (e.g., 2 ms(-1) weaker) in comparison with QuikSCAT winds, especially near the northern boundaries. A creeping sea-fill methodology applied to the NOGAPS winds typically results in better agreement with the satellite winds. The accuracy of the NOGAPS winds is further improved by correcting them based on the satellite winds using a linear regression analysis. Finally, a 3.5-km-resolution HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) is forced with these original, sea-filled and regression-corrected NOGAPS winds. Sea-surface temperatures (SSTs) simulated by HYCOM demonstrate that the land-contaminated original winds from NOGAPS result in a relatively warm SST bias of >2 degrees C in comparison to a satellite-SST analysis near the coastal boundaries. Sea-filled and regression-corrected winds significantly improve the accuracy of the SSTs from the model. The results presented in this paper clearly reveal that (I) stability dependence in the satellite winds cannot be ignored and (2) winds from a NWP product (NOGAPS here) over the sea may not be accurate near land-sea boundaries due to contamination by land values and can be improved either locally or via a regression against QuikSCAT winds.

AB The use of Multi-model Super-Ensembles (SE) which optimally combine different models, has been shown to significantly improve atmospheric weather and climate predictions. In the highly dynamic coastal ocean, the presence of small-scales processes. the lack of real-time data, and the limited skill of operational models at the meso-scale have so far limited the application of SE methods. Here, we report results from state-of-the-art super-ensemble techniques in which SEPTR (a trawl-resistant bottom mounted instrument platform transmitting data in near real-time) temperature profile data are combined with outputs from eight ocean models run in a coastal area during the Dynamics of the Adriatic in Real-Time (DART) experiment in 2006. New Kalman filter and particle filter based SE methods, which allow for dynamic evolution of weights and associated uncertainty, are compared to standard SE techniques and numerical models. Results show that dynamic SE are able to significantly improve prediction skill. In particular, the particle fitter SE copes with non-Gaussian error statistics and provides robust and reduced uncertainty estimates. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB A pool of less saline surface waters was observed in late June 2006 at the northern edge of the South Adriatic Pit (SAP). Three possible sources were considered: (1) Albanian rivers, (2) local Croatian rivers, or (3) relatively fresh West Adriatic Current (WAC) waters. Available CTD and ADCP data, together with satellite images indicate that WAC waters are the most likely source. This requires an excursion of WAC water across the width of the Adriatic and is especially Surprising as low winds and stable atmospheric conditions prevailed in mid/late June. However, quite strong NNW winds occurred during the first 12 days of June, with peak winds close to the western shore. These winds were the result of the translation of the Azorean high to the British Isles, producing strong pressure gradients over the Adriatic. The winds enhanced the WAC during early June 2006, preconditioning a cross-basin eddy circulation that appeared during the wind relaxation and calm conditions. As the unusually calm conditions persisted for more than two weeks, the WAC eddies and filaments grew freely and had enough time to reach middle cast Adriatic waters. Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) simulations, using high-resolution Adriatic bathymetry and realistic atmospheric forcing show that such excursions are plausible and can occur when eddies and instabilities push WAC waters across the hyperbolic flow point separating the WAC and Eastern Adriatic Currents near the Palagruza Sill. During the latter half of June 2006, NCOM simulations show that the hyperbolic point was particularly well formed as an anticyclonic WAC, a cyclonic SAP rim flow, an anticyclonic cell Southeast of Lastovo Island, and a cyclonic cell over the centre of the Palagruza Sill all bordered on each other. A simplified channel model suggests that the presence of the escarpment is a critical factor for producing cross-basin exchange of the coastal current following the relaxation of strong winds with a cyclonic wind-stress curl. However, the introduction of the Gargano Peninsula in the simulations was critical to the production of mesoscale eddies in the exchange flow, and such eddies qualitatively agree with the convoluted structures observed in satellite images.

In this paper, we study the positive integers n such that s(g)(n) and s(g)(kn) satisfy certain relations for a fixed, or arbitrary positive integer k. In the first part of the paper, we prove that if n is not a power of g, then there exists a nontrivial multiple of n say kn such that s(g)(n) = s(g)(kn) In the second part of the paper, we show that for any K > 0 the set of the integers n satisfying s(g)(n) <= K s(g)(kn) for all k is an element of N is of asymptotic density 0.

ID MODEL; FLOW
AB Film cooling of flat plates with pulsation were simulated using FLUENT (TM) commercial code with realizable k-epsilon turbulence model. The simulations were done for nominal blowing ratios 0.5 and 1.5, duty cycle = 50%, and Strouhal number ranging from 0.0119 to 1.0. Pulsation helps to lower the amount of cool air from the compressor, which is desirable for film-cooling applications. Pulsed jets performance significantly depends on geometry and blowing ratio. From the cases studied and for steady flow with attached jets, pulsation considerably decreases the film-cooling effectiveness. On the other hand, for steady flow cases where jet liftoff occurs (e.g., higher blowing ratios), pulsation helps to increase the film-cooling effectiveness.

AB A multiple-spacecraft close-proximity control algorithm was implemented and tested with the Synchronized Position Hold Engage and Reorient Experimental Satellites (SPHERES) facility onboard the International Space Station. During flight testing, a chaser satellite successfully approached a virtual target satellite while avoiding collision with a virtual obstacle satellite. This research contributes to the control of multiple spacecraft for emerging missions, which may require simultaneous gathering, rendezvous, and docking. The unique control algorithm was developed at the U.S. Naval Postgraduate School and integrated onto the Massachusetts Institute of Technology's SPHERES facility. The control algorithm implemented combines the efficiency of the linear quadratic regulator (used for attraction toward goal positions) and the robust collision-avoidance capability of the artificial potential field method (used for repulsion from moving obstacles). The amalgamation of these two control methods into a multiple-spacecraft close-proximity control algorithm yielded promising results, as demonstrated by simulations. Comprehensive simulation evaluation enabled implementation and ground testing of the spacecraft control algorithm on the SPHERES facility. Successful ground testing led to the execution of flight experiments onboard the International Space Station, which demonstrated the proposed algorithm in a microgravity environment.

ID NOISE CROSS-CORRELATION; AMBIENT NOISE; GREENS-FUNCTION; EMERGENCE
AB Recently, a method has been developed that exploits the correlation properties of the ocean's ambient noise to measure water depth (a passive fathometer) and seabed layering [M. Siderius et al., J. Acoust. Soc. Am. 120, 1315-1323 (2006)]. This processing is based on the cross-correlation between the surface noise and the echo return from the seabed. To quantitatively study the dependency between processing and environmental factors such as wind speed, measurements were made using a fixed hydrophone array while simultaneously characterizing the environment. The measurements were made in 2006 in the shallow waters (25 m) approximately 75 km off the coast of Savannah, GA. A Navy tower about 100 m from the array was used to measure wind speed and to observe the sea-surface using a video camera. Data were collected in various environmental conditions with wind speeds ranging from 5 to 21 m/s and wave heights of 1-3.4 m. The data are analyzed to quantify the dependency of passive fathometer results on wind speeds, wave conditions, and averaging times. One result shows that the seabed reflection is detectable even in the lowest wind conditions. Further, a technique is developed to remove the environmental dependency so that the returns estimate seabed impedance. [DOI: 10.1121/1.3216915]

ID POLYNOMIAL CHAOS; TRANSMISSION LOSS; INVERSION
AB Stochastic basis expansions are applied to formulate and solve the problem of including uncertainty in numerical models of acoustic wave propagation within ocean waveguides. As an example, a constrained least-squares approach is used to estimate the intensity of an acoustic field whose waveguide environment has uncertainty in both source depth and sound speed. The mean intensity, a second moment of the field, and its probability distribution are computed and compared with independent Monte-Carlo computations of these quantities. Very good agreement is obtained, indicating the potential of stochastic basis expansions for describing multiple sources of uncertainty and their effect on acoustic propagation.

TI Bistatic scattering from submerged unexploded ordnance lying on a
sediment
SO JOURNAL OF THE ACOUSTICAL SOCIETY OF AMERICA
LA English
DT Article
AB The broadband bistatic target strengths (TSs) of two submerged unexploded ordnance (UXO) targets have been measured in the NRL sediment pool facility. The targets-a 5 in. rocket and a 155 mm projectile-were among the targets whose monostatic TSs were measured and reported previously by the authors. Bistatic TS measurements were made for 0 degrees (target front) and 90 degrees (target side) incident source directions, and include both backscattered and forward scattered echo angles over a complete 360 degrees with the targets placed proud of the sediment surface. For the two source angles used, each target exhibits two strong highlights: a backscattered specular-like echo and a forward scattered response. The TS levels of the former are shown to agree reasonably well with predictions, based on scattering from rigid disks and cylinders, while the levels of the latter with predictions from radar cross section models, based on simple geometric optics appropriately modified. The bistatic TS levels observed for the proud case provide comparable or higher levels of broadband TS relative to free-field monostatic measurements. It is concluded that access to bistatic echo information in operations aimed at detecting submerged UXO targets could provide an important capability. [DOI: 10.1121/1.3212920]

AB Our objective was to determine whether an adult ferret can be intubated as many as 10 times per training session without resulting in trauma to the upper airway. In this program, 8 male ferrets rotated through intubation laboratories, limiting the use of each animal to once every 3 mo. Animals were examined by the veterinary staff after intubations to assess for trauma to upper airway tissue. Each examination was given a trauma grade of 0 for no visible signs of trauma, 1 if erythema of the larynx was present, 2 if visible excoriation of the mucus membranes was present, and 3 if bleeding (frank hemorrhage) was observed. The number of intubation attempts was restricted to 10 per animal per training session. A total of 170 intubations were completed on the ferrets during a 12-mo period. The average number of intubations per laboratory was 8.1 intubations per ferret. In addition, 1.8% of the intubations resulted in erythema (score, 1) after training, and 0.6% of the intubations resulted in excoriation (score, 2). Frank hemorrhage (score, 3) was not noted. The overall percentage of intubations resulting in any trauma during a training session was 0.02%. None of the animals have experienced any major complications to date. This ongoing training program has been used to teach neonatal intubation skills to emergency medicine residents for the past 12 mo. Ensuring the health and safety of the ferrets was paramount. Our results suggest that as many as 10 intubation attempts per session can be performed safely on each ferret without causing excessive trauma.

AB In this study, the leading singular vectors (SVs), which are the fastest-growing perturbations (in a linear sense) to a given forecast, are used to examine and classify the dynamic relationship between tropical cyclones (TCs) and synoptic-scale environmental features that influence their evolution. Based on the 72 two-day forecasts of the 18 western North Pacific TCs in 2006, the SVs are constructed to optimize perturbation energy within a 208 3 208 latitude-longitude box centered on the 48-h forecast position of the TCs using the Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System (NOGAPS) forecast and adjoint systems. Composite techniques are employed to explore these relationships and highlight how the dominant synoptic-scale features that impact TC forecasts evolve on seasonal time scales.
The NOGAPS initial SVs show several different patterns that highlight the relationship between the TC forecast sensitivity and the environment during the western North Pacific typhoon season in 2006. In addition to the relation of the SV maximum to the inward flow region of the TC, there are three patterns identified where the local SV maxima collocate with low-radial-wind-speed regions. These regions are likely caused by the confluence of the flow associated with the TC itself and the flow from other synoptic systems, such as the subtropical high and the midlatitude jet. This is the new finding beyond the previous NOGAPS SV results on TCs. The subseasonal variations of these patterns corresponding to the dynamic characteristics are discussed. The SV total energy vertical structures for the different composites are used to demonstrate the contributions from kinetic and potential energy components of different vertical levels at initial and final times.

ID ENSEMBLE KALMAN FILTER; AMPLITUDE MOUNTAIN WAVES; DATA ASSIMILATION;
GRAVITY-WAVES; FLOW; TOPOGRAPHY; SIMULATION; TURBULENCE; STABILITY;
EVOLUTION
AB The sensitivity of downslope wind forecasts to small changes in initial conditions is explored by using 70-member ensemble simulations of two prototypical windstorms observed during the Terrain-Induced Rotor Experiment (T-REX). The 10 weakest and 10 strongest ensemble members are composited and compared for each event.
In the first case, the 6-h ensemble-mean forecast shows a large-amplitude breaking mountain wave and severe downslope winds. Nevertheless, the forecasts are very sensitive to the initial conditions because the difference in the downslope wind speeds predicted by the strong-and weak-member composites grows to larger than 28 m s(-1) over the 6-h forecast. The structure of the synoptic-scale flow one hour prior to the windstorm and during the windstorm is very similar in both the weak-and strong-member composites.
Wave breaking is not a significant factor in the second case, in which the strong winds are generated by a layer of high static stability flowing beneath a layer of weaker mid-and upper-tropospheric stability. In this case, the sensitivity to initial conditions is weaker but still significant. The difference in downslope wind speeds between the weak-and strong-member composites grows to 22 m s(-1) over 12 h. During and one hour before the windstorm, the synoptic-scale flow exhibits appreciable differences between the strong-and weak-member composites. Although this case appears to be more predictable than the wave-breaking event, neither case suggests that much confidence should be placed in the intensity of downslope winds forecast 12 or more hours in advance.

TI Integration of Moisture Sensitivity Testing with Gyratory Mix Design and
Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design
SO JOURNAL OF TRANSPORTATION ENGINEERING-ASCE
LA English
DT Article
AB Moisture damage is one of the major problems that can be faced by a pavement during its design life. It can tremendously reduce a pavement's strength and consequently its life. The test predominately specified to evaluate the moisture sensitivity of an asphalt concrete mixture is the modified Lottman test, currently specified as AASHTO T283. The problem with this test is that it assists in minimizing the problem, but it does not provide an accurate estimate of the anticipated moisture damage and in some cases it provides false results. The methodology used in this paper utilizes mixture dynamic modulus test methods, which are complimentary to the mechanistic-empirical pavement design guide (M-E PDG), in evaluating moisture damage in asphalt concrete pavements. Dynamic modulus tests are performed on both moisture conditioned and unconditioned samples and used as input parameters in the M-E PDG for estimating pavement performance. The methodology was applied on two projects and the results were compared to the results achieved using the AASHTO T283 methodology and dynamic modulus test results. The dynamic modulus test results show consistency with AASHTO T283 in identifying moisture sensitivity of a mixture. This paper outlines a method for evaluating hot mix asphalt moisture susceptibility using dynamic modulus testing and is compatible with the proposed performance testing for accompanying Superpave volumetric mix design. The results of the proposed mixture dynamic modulus moisture susceptibility method can also be used in the new M-E PDG for evaluating the moisture susceptibility effects of the tested mixtures. This in part allows for the evaluation of this environmental effect in the M-E PDG.

AB In this paper, we propose a partitioning and gating technique for the design of a high performance and low-power multiplier for kernel-based operations such as 2D convolution in video processing applications. The proposed technique reduces dynamic power consumption by analyzing the bit patterns in the input data to reduce switching activities. Special values of the pixels in the video streams such as zero, repeated values or repeated bit combinations are detected and data paths in the architecture design are disabled appropriately to eliminate unnecessary switching. Input pixels in the video stream are partitioned into halves to increase the possibility of detecting special values. It is observed that the proposed scheme helps to reduce dynamic power consumption in the 2D convolution operations up to 33%. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB We present a 20-year-old previously healthy male who suffered a gunshot wound to the abdomen and underwent multiple surgeries because of abdominal abscess and fistula formation. Pain control was difficult to achieve despite high-dose opioid therapy. Post-traumatic stress disorder was a confounding factor in treating this patient's pain. Ten months after the original injury, the patient returned to the operating room for an exploratory laparotomy with restoration of bowel continuity and abdominal wall closure. The patient presented to the intensive care unit after a 12-hour operation with an open abdomen and the requirement of mechanical ventilation, sedation, and analgesia. Sedation and analgesia were difficult to achieve and maintain with combinations of extremely high doses of midazolam, lorazepam, propofol, and fentanyl (motor assessment activity scale [MAAS] scores of 5), but profoundly achievable with dexmedetomidine. Dexmedetomidine also improved the patient's mental stability, which resulted in improved patient care through compliance with physicians, nurses, and physical therapists.

TI Western North Pacific Typhoons with Concentric Eyewalls
SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW
LA English
DT Article
ID TROPICAL CYCLONE; HURRICANE INTENSITY; PRIMARY CIRCULATION
AB This study examines the intensity change and moat dynamics of typhoons with concentric eyewalls using passive microwave data and best-track data in the western North Pacific between 1997 and 2006. Of the 225 typhoons examined, 55 typhoons and 62 cases with concentric eyewalls have been identified. The data indicate that approximately 57% of category 4 and 72% of category 5 typhoons possessed concentric eyewalls at some point during their lifetime. While major typhoons are most likely to form concentric eyewalls, the formation of the concentric structure may not be necessarily at the lifetime maximum intensity. Approximately one-third of concentric eyewall cases are formed at the time of maximum intensity.
The moat is known to be heavily influenced by the subsidence forced by the two eyewalls. Rozoff et al. proposed that the rapid filamentation dynamics may also contribute to the organization of the moat. This paper examines the possibility of rapid filamentation dynamics by devising a filamentation moat width parameter. This parameter can be computed from the best-track typhoon intensity and the passive microwave satellite-estimated inner eyewall radius for each typhoon with concentric eyewalls. The filamentation moat width explains 40% of the variance of the satellite-observed moat width in the group with concentric eyewall formation intensity greater than 130 kt.
The typhoon intensity time series in both the concentric and nonconcentric composites are studied. The time series of intensity is classified according to the 24-h intensity change before and after the concentric eyewalls formation. The averaged concentric eyewall formation latitudes in the groups with negative intensity change before concentric eyewall formation are at higher latitudes than that of the positive intensity change groups. Intensity of the concentric typhoons tends to peak at the time of secondary eyewall formation, but the standard model of intensification followed by weakening is valid for only half of the cases. Approximately 74% of the cases intensify 24 h before secondary eyewall formation and approximately 72% of the cases weaken 24 h after formation. The concentric composites have a much slower intensification rate 12 h before the peak intensity (time of concentric formation) than that of the nonconcentric composites. For categories 4 and 5, the peak intensity of the concentric typhoons is comparable to that of the nonconcentric typhoons. However, 60 h before reaching the peak the concentric composites are 25% more intense than the nonconcentric composites. So a key feature of concentric eyewall formation appears to be the maintenance of a relatively high intensity for a longer duration, rather than a rapid intensification process that can reach a higher intensity.

SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW

DT Article

AB The impact of moist processes on mountain waves over Sierra Nevada Mountain Range is investigated in this study. Aircraft measurements over Owens Valley obtained during the Terrain-induced Rotor Experiment (T-REX) indicate that mountain waves were generally weaker when the relative humidity maximum near the mountaintop level was above 70%. Four moist cases with a RH maximum near the mountaintop level greater than 90% have been further examined using a mesoscale model and a linear wave model. Two competing mechanisms governing the influence of moisture on mountain waves have been identified. The first mechanism involves low-level moisture that enhances flow-terrain interaction by reducing windward flow blocking. In the second mechanism, the moist airflow tends to damp mountain waves through destratifying the airflow and reducing the buoyancy frequency. The second mechanism dominates in the presence of a deep moist layer in the lower to middle troposphere, and the wave amplitude is significantly reduced associated with a smaller moist buoyancy frequency. With a shallow moist layer and strong low-level flow, the two mechanisms can become comparable in magnitude and largely offset each other.

ID CONDUCTANCE; SYSTEMS
AB The controlled creation, manipulation and detection of spin-polarized currents by purely electrical means remains a central challenge of spintronics. Efforts to meet this challenge by exploiting the coupling of the electron orbital motion to its spin, in particular Rashba spin-orbit coupling, have so far been unsuccessful. Recently, it has been shown theoretically that the confining potential of a small current-carrying wire with high intrinsic spin-orbit coupling leads to the accumulation of opposite spins at opposite edges of the wire, though not to a spin-polarized current. Here, we present experimental evidence that a quantum point contact-a short wire-made from a semiconductor with high intrinsic spin-orbit coupling can generate a completely spin-polarized current when its lateral confinement is made highly asymmetric. By avoiding the use of ferromagnetic contacts or external magnetic fields, such quantum point contacts may make feasible the development of a variety of semiconductor spintronic devices.

AB We present low-temperature low-power intermodulation-distortion (IMD) measurements of high-quality MgB2 thin films that are inconsistent with presumed s-wave symmetry of the order parameter. The measurements were carried out in a stripline resonator at approximately 2 GHz between 1.8 K and T-c. The IMD arises from the nonlinear Meissner effect in which the penetration depth is dependent on the RF magnetic field. Specifically, the observed IMD vs temperature T for T < T-c/2 varies as T-2, while for an s-wave gap symmetry in the clean limit, the low-temperature IMD decreases exponentially with decreasing temperature. We calculate the IMD from first principles for different order-parameter symmetries using a Green's function approach and compare the results with the measured data. We propose that the observed upturn in the low-temperature IMD implies an admixture of an order parameter with nodal lines into the energy gaps of MgB2. Most likely, this admixture is prominent for the pi gap. Within the constraints of the hexagonal crystal symmetry of MgB2, the best fit with our IMD measurements is obtained with a gap Delta(phi,T)=Delta(0)(T)sin(6 phi), where phi is the azimuthal angle in the ab (&) over cap plane, and Delta(0)(T) is the amplitude, weakly temperature dependent at low temperatures. This gap symmetry entails six nodal lines. We also present low-temperature penetration-depth measurements that are consistent with the proposed nodal gap symmetry. To relate our proposition with existing literature, we review other low-temperature probes of the order-parameter symmetry. The literature presents conflicting results, some of which are in direct support of the symmetry proposed here.

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

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

AB The probability density functions (PDFs) of the velocity fluctuations and their derivatives of a viscoelastic turbulent channel flow are calculated and compared against those for a Newtonian fluid at a friction Reynolds number 180. The velocity fields in both cases are provided from previous and new direct numerical simulations In the viscoelastic case, the Giesekus model is used at a friction Weissenberg number 50, a mobility parameter 1/900, and viscosity ratio 0.9, corresponding to 37.4% drag reduction. The skewness and the flatness factors, which are also calculated and presented as functions of the distance from the wall, further reveal and quantify the non-Gaussian characteristics of the turbulent structures and how they are distributed in the flow domain. With the presence of viscoelasticity the non-Gaussian character of the PDFs is typically further enhanced. In particular, larger asymmetries and much longer tails are typically observed in the viscoelastic PDFs. This indicates higher intermittency in the viscoelastic turbulent flow versus the Newtonian one. along with strong correlations between all scales of turbulence. Furthermore, we have also seen significant qualitative changes regarding the distribution of the non-Gaussian characteristics of the PDFs as a function of the distance from the wall. The most notable differences are seen in the PDFs of the shear and spanwise velocity components in the buffer and log-law regions, as well as in most of the components of the first and second order velocity derivatives. It is also found that in the log-law layer the PDFs of the logarithm of the dissipation and the pseudodissipation rate, as well as of the enstrophy, are almost Gaussian. In contrast, in the viscous sublayer and the buffer layer, significant deviations from the Gaussian shape are observed. Whereas the deviations from Gaussianity are more enhanced with viscoelasticity next to the wall, with the PDFs even more negatively skewed, away from the wall sometimes (i.e., for the logarithm of the enstrophy) they are decreased. All these findings are pointing out to a fairly complex picture for the interaction of viscoelasticity with turbulence that makes the task of developing turbulent viscoelastic models even more challenging.

AB This pilot study compared the use of the Lifor Organ Preservation Medium (RTLF) at room temperature with hypothermic Belzer machine preservation solution (CMPS) and room in vitro temperature Belzer machine preservation solution (RTMPS) in a porcine model of uncontrolled donation after cardiac death (DCD). In this study, 5 porcine kidneys for each perfusate group were recovered under a DCD protocol. The kidneys were recovered, flushed, and placed onto a renal preservation system following standard perfusion procedures. The average flow rate for CMPS was 36.2 +/- 7.2549 mL/min, RTMPS was 90.2 +/- 9.7159 mL/min, and RTLF was 103.1 +/- 5.1108 mL/min. The average intrarenal resistance for CMPS was 1.33 +/- 0.1709 mm Hg/mL per minute, RTMPS was 0.84 +/- 0.3586 and RTLF was 0.39 +/- 0.04. All perfusion parameters were statistically significant (P < .05) at all time points for the CMPS when compared with both RTMPS and RTLF. All perfusion parameters for RTMPS and RTLF were equivalent for the first 12 hours; thereafter, RTLF became significantly better than RTMPS at 18 and 24 hours. It appears that both RTMPS and RTLF have equivalent perfusion characteristic for the initial 12 hours of perfusion, but LF continues to maintain a low resistance and high flow up to 24 hours. The results of this pilot study indicate that RTLF may represent a better alternative to pulsatile perfusion with CMPS and requires validation in an in vivo large animal transplant model.

TI Outcomes of diarrhea management in operations Iraqi Freedom and Enduring

DT Article
DE Travelers' diarrhea; Empiric therapy; US military; Middle East
AB Introduction: Among deployed U.S. military personnel, a sub-population of international travelers, acute infectious diarrhea continues to be a leading cause of morbidity and a potential threat to military effectiveness.
Methods: To assess outcomes and satisfaction of diarrhea management in the field, a systematic survey was given to military personnel during mid- or post-deployment from Iraq or Afghanistan, from January through August 2004.
Results: Sixty-three percent of those surveyed reported at least one episode of diarrhea, while less than half sought care for their symptoms. Overall, trends of decreased post-treatment duration were noted as traveler's diarrhea therapy modalities grew more complex, controlling for severity of illness at presentation. Among those reporting diarrhea, the greatest level of satisfaction was seen in treatment with IV fluids (59%) followed by antibiotics (46%) and loperamide (40%). The greatest amount of dissatisfaction was seen in treatments with oral fluids only.
Conclusion: While current standard of care is self-treatment of diarrhea in civilian travelers, the U.S. military lacks standards outlining self-treatment of personnel at the individual level. Further research is needed to develop treatment guidelines on diarrhea management during military deployment. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB For more than 25 years, the ISI assay and ILSDA have been used to study the development of the malaria parasite in the liver, to discover and characterize sporozoite and liver-stage antigens, to support the development of malaria vaccine candidates, and to search for immunological correlates of protection in animals and in humans. Although both assays have been limited by low sporozoite invasion rates, significant biological variability, and the subjective nature of manually counting hepatocytes containing parasites as the read-out, they have nevertheless been useful tools for exploring parasite biology. This review describes the origin, application and current status of these assays, critically discusses the need for improvements, and explores the roles of these assays in supporting the development of an effective vaccine against Plasmodium falciparum malaria.

AB Iatrogenic venous pseudoaneurysm following venipuncture is an extremely rare complication of a very common medical procedure. A review of the vascular surgical literature revealed that only two cases of venous pseudoaneurysm secondary to venipuncture have been reported in the past half-century. We report the case of a 64-year-old anticoagulated male with a 7-month history of right arm swelling after venipuncture. The patient, on warfarin therapy for chronic atrial fibrillation, described progressive swelling at a previous venipuncture site. He eventually underwent limited two-dimensional ultrasonography, performed for a suspected hematoma, revealing a 4.3 x 3.3 x 2.0 cm pseudoaneurysm of the right basilic vein. These findings were later confirmed by a formal venous duplex sonogram. Similar to other forms of aneurysm and focal vascular dilation, the risks of venous psuedoaneurysm include embolism, thrombosis, and the compression of adjacent structures. Although both thrombin injection and coil embolization have been described as nonsurgical treatment options for arterial pseudoaneurysms, surgical resection may be the most appropriate approach for those with a venous equivalent. The segment of basilic vein containing the pseudoaneurysm was resected. This case demonstrates the need for physicians to consider venous pseudoaneurysm as a possible complication of venipuncture in individuals undergoing anticoagulation therapy.

AB We propose and characterize an iterated map whose nonlinearity has a simple (i.e., minimal) electronic implementation. We then demonstrate explicitly how all the different fundamental logic gates can be implemented and morphed using this nonlinearity. These gates provide the full set of gates necessary to construct a general-purpose, reconfigurable computing device. As an example of how such chaotic computing devices can be exploited, we use an array of these maps to encode data and to process information. Each map can store one of M items, where M is variable and can be large. This nonlinear hardware stores data naturally in different bases or alphabets. We also show how this method of storing information can serve as a preprocessing tool for exact or inexact pattern-matching searches. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

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

AB Measurements by adiabatic calorimetry of heat capacities and enthalpy relaxation rates of a 20% (w/w) aqueous solution of bovine serum albumin (BSA) by Kawai, Suzuki, and Oguni [Biophys. J. 2006, 90, 3732] have found several enthalpy relaxations at long times indicating different processes undergoing glass transitions. In a quenched sample, one enthalpy relaxation at around 110 K and another over a wide temperature range (120-190 K) were observed. In a sample annealed at 200-240 K after quenching, three separated enthalpy relaxations at 110, 135, and above 180 K were observed. Dynamics of processes probed by adiabatic calorimetric data are limited to long times on the order of 10(3) s. A fuller understanding of the processes can be gained by probing the dynamics over a wider time/frequency range. Toward this goal, we performed broadband dielectric measurements of BSA-water mixtures at various BSA concentrations over a wide frequency range of thirteen decades from 2 mHz to 1.8 GHz at temperatures from 80 to 270 K. Three relevant relaxation processes were detected. For relaxation times equal to 100 s, the three processes are centered approximately at 110, 135, and 200 K, in good agreement with those observed by adiabatic calorimetry. We have made the following interpretation of the molecular origins of the three processes. The fastest relaxation process having relaxation time of 100 or 1000 s at ca. 110 K is due to the secondary relaxation of uncrystallized water (UCW) in the hydration shell. The intermediate relaxation process with 100 s relaxation time at ca. 135 K is due to ice. The slowest relaxation process having relaxation time of 100 s at ca. 200 K is interpreted to originate from local chain conformation fluctuations of protein slaved by water. Experimental evidence supporting these interpretations include the change of temperature dependence of the relaxation time of the UCW at approximately T(gBSA) approximate to 200 K, the glass transition temperature of protein in the hydration shell,,BSA similar to that found for the secondary relaxation of water in a mixture of myoglobin in glycerol and water [Swenson et al. J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 2007, 19, 205109; Ngai et al. J. Phys. Chem. B 2008, 112, 3826]. The data all indicate in hydrated BSA or other proteins that the secondary relaxation of water and the conformation fluctuations of the protein in the hydration shell are inseparable or symbiotic processes.

AB We characterized the resonance energy-transfer interactions for conjugates consisting of QD donors self-assembled with three distinct fluorescent protein acceptors, two monomeric fluorescent proteins, the dsRed derivative mCherry or yellow fluorescent protein, and the multichromophore b-phycoerythrin light-harvesting complex. Using steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence, we showed that nonradiative transfer of excitation energy in these conjugates can be described within the Forster dipole-dipole formalism, with transfer efficiencies that vary with the degree of spectral overlap, the donor-acceptor separation distance, and the number of acceptors per QD. Comparison between the quenching data and simulation of the conjugate structures indicated that while energy transfer to monomeric proteins was identical to what was measured for QD-dye pairs, interactions with b-phycoerythrin were more complex. For the latter, the overall transfer efficiency results from the cumulative contribution of individual channels between the central QD and the chromophores distributed throughout the protein structure. Due to the biocompatible nature of fluorescent proteins, these QD assemblies may have great potential for use in intracellular imaging and sensing.

AB Multilayer and 1:1 blended films of zinc phthalocyanine (ZnPc) and buckminsterfullerene (C-60) were investigated as model active layers for solar cells by time-resolved terahertz spectroscopy (TRTS). Relative photon-to-carrier efficiencies were determined from ultrafast decay dynamics of photogenerated carriers using 400 and 800 nm excitation for delay times up to 0.5 ns. The findings are in good agreement with reported solar-cell device measurements, and the results exhibit a near linear increase of the relative efficiencies with the interface number of multilayer films. The relative photon-to-carrier efficiencies of films composed of alternating layers with an individual layer thickness of less than 20 nm were higher than that of a 1:1 blended film. In contrast, 400 nm excitation of a C-60 only film initially yields a relatively strong THz signal that is followed by a rapid (picosecond) decay almost to its base value and results in a very low carrier density beyond a few picoseconds. For a given film thickness and optical density, our data suggest that the relative photon-to-carrier efficiency of multilayer films increases with increasing total interfacial area, emphasizing the importance of close proximity between the fullerene and phythalocyanine. These findings suggest that the highest photon-to-free-carrier efficiencies can be achieved by designing ultrathin films (having layers a few nanometers thick) with alternating multilayer structures to achieve high photon harvesting and charge separation to opposite layers.

AB We examine the evolution of the quasi 2-day wave in the middle atmosphere during the period from 5 January to 5 February 2006 using global synoptic meteorological fields from the high-altitude Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System Advanced Level Physics, High Altitude (NOGAPS-ALPHA) forecast-assimilation system. This period is characterized by a high level of planetary wave activity in the Northern Hemisphere (winter) extratropical stratosphere prior to a sudden stratospheric warming (SSW) on 20 January 2006. Space-time spectral analysis of 6-hourly NOGAPS-ALPHA fields finds the largest quasi 2-day wave amplitudes in the Southern Hemisphere (summer) extratropical upper mesosphere. Eliassen-Palm flux diagnostics indicate that this extratropical quasi 2-day wave is related to baroclinic instability along the equatorward flank of the summer easterly jet. The quasi 2-day wave is also evident in NOGAPS-ALPHA water vapor fields near the tropical stratopause and is related to barotropic instability. We find that the strong planetary wave activity leading up to the SSW produced an enhanced northward component of the residual meridional circulation that influenced the background zonal winds and, by extension, the quasi 2-day wave forcing in both the tropical and extratropical regions. In the tropical region, the combination of enhanced horizontal momentum advection by the residual meridional circulation and inertially unstable circulations related to planetary wave breaking in the subtropics produced conditions favoring barotropic instability. In the extratropical region, the enhanced residual meridional circulation altered the zonal wind tendency through increased Coriolis torque.

AB A large-pore IRMOF-16-like material (1) was synthesized solvothermally and evacuated by two solvent removal procedures: the original chloroform (CHCl(3)) method and a new supercritical carbon dioxide (SCID) method. Using several experimental and geometric characterization tools, including thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), and pore size analysis, we propose that 1 is a mixture of noncatenated IRMOF-16 and the corresponding 2-fold interwoven structure and is partially collapsed during the evacuation, especially some of the larger pores. Adsorption measurements using several gases at 77 and 298 K showed that the new SCD evacuation is superior to the conventional CHCl(3) evacuation for increasing the adsorption kinetics as well as the adsorption capacity. This work illustrates a new strategy that combines several experimental methods, geometric calculations, and molecular simulations for the characterization of metalorganic frameworks (MOFs), especially those with large pores. This combination should be helpful for future characterization of new MOFs that possibly include some imperfections such as nonuniform catenation and partial collapse of the crystalline phase.

AB We demonstrate spin polarized tunneling from Fe through a SiO2 tunnel barrier into a Si n-i-p heterostructure. Transport measurements indicate that single step tunneling is the dominant transport mechanism. The circular polarization P-circ of the electroluminescence shows that the tunneling spin polarization reflects Fe majority spin. P-circ tracks the Fe magnetization, confirming that the spin-polarized electrons radiatively recombining in the Si originate from the Fe. A rate equation analysis provides a lower bound of 30% for the electron spin polarization in the Si at 5 K. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.32542280]

AB We investigate electromagnetic scattering from nanoscale wires and reveal the emergence of a family of exotic resonances for source waves close to grazing incidence. These grazing resonances have a much higher Q-bandwidth product and thus, a much higher Q factor and broader bandwidth than the pure plasmonic resonances found in metal nanowires. Furthermore, these grazing resonances are much less susceptible to material losses than surface plasmon resonances. Contrary to the process of exciting surface plasmon resonances, these grazing resonances can arise in both dielectric and metallic nanowires and appear near to the cutoff wavelength of the circular waveguide. This peculiar resonance effect originates from the excitation of long range guided surface waves through the interplay of coherently scattered continuum modes coupled with first-order azimuthal propagating modes of the cylindrical nanowire. These first-order cyclic Sommerfeld waves and associated cyclic Sommerfeld resonances revealed here opens up the possibility of an alternative scheme of enhanced fields with a better merit (higher Q-bandwidth product and lower loss) than conventional surface plasmon resonances in the nano-regime. This nanowire resonance phenomenon can be utilized in broad scientific areas, including: metamaterial designs, nanophotonic integration, nanoantennas, and nanosensors.

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

TI Relationships between polar mesospheric clouds, temperature, and water
vapor from Solar Occultation for Ice Experiment (SOFIE) observations
SO JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH-ATMOSPHERES

ID ARCTIC SUMMER MESOSPHERE; PRESSURE
AB The goal of this work is to explore relationships between polar mesospheric clouds (PMCs), temperature, and water vapor and to understand the extent that bulk thermodynamic equilibrium can explain observed PMC characteristics. We use observations from the Solar Occultation for Ice Experiment (SOFIE) and employ a simple PMC model which assumes that ice exists in thermodynamic equilibrium with the local temperature and water vapor. Model results using SOFIE temperatures and water vapor are found to reproduce the observed ice layer altitudes, ice frequency versus time and altitude, ice mass density (expressed as the gas phase equivalent contained in the ice phase, Q(ice)) versus time and altitude, and the vertical column abundance of ice (or ice water content (IWC)). The differences (model - SOFIE) for July 2008 were -0.1 km in the altitude of peak ice mass density (Z(max)), 16% in Q(ice) at Z(max), and 35% in IWC. These results suggest that on average, PMCs can exist in equilibrium with the surrounding environment, and the results also imply that ice nucleation may occur throughout the PMC altitude range. Good correlations were found between ice abundance and temperature (or saturation ratio), although knowledge of both water vapor and temperature is required for a quantitative prediction of observed ice characteristics. Our results indicate that the seasonal dependence of ice abundance is generally controlled by temperature and that in a broad sense, changes in water vapor are a result of changes in ice. We also find that lower temperatures are associated with higher ice mass density, higher ice concentration, and slightly smaller particle radii. This finding indicates that the increase in ice mass density is due to the nucleation of more particles rather than the growth of existing ice, and this finding points to nucleation as an important factor in determining PMC variability.

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

AB The properties of an oligomeric cyanate ester polymer were modified by the addition of 0.01-3 wt.-% multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) containing particles. The dynamic mechanical behavior and thermal properties of the cyanate ester/MWNT nanocomposites were evaluated. The storage modulus, G', of the nanocomposite with 1 wt.-% MWNT particles was nearly 60 and 600% higher than the neat polymer at 100 and 200 degrees C, respectively. The glass transition temperature of the nanocomposite was also raised by 30 degrees C and its thermal stability in air and nitrogen was increased by 58 and 25 degrees C, respectively. The property improvements are attributed to reinforcement of the cyanate ester as a result of good nanotube dispersion and effective polymer-MWNT interaction.

AB We present numerical calculations of a four-point dynamic susceptibility, chi(4)(t), for the Kob-Andersen Lennard-Jones mixture as a function of temperature T and density rho. Over a relevant range of T and rho, the full t-dependence of chi(4)(t) and thus the maximum in chi(4)(t), which is proportional to the dynamic correlation volume, are invariant for state points for which the scaling variable rho(gamma)/T is constant. The value of the material constant gamma is the same as that which superposes the relaxation time tau of the system versus rho(gamma)/T. Thus, the dynamic correlation volume is a unique function of tau for any thermodynamic condition in the regime where density scaling holds. Finally, we examine the conditions under which the density scaling properties are related to the existence of strong correlations between pressure and energy fluctuations.

AB We study the nature of the extended near-UV emission in the inner kiloparsec of a sample of 15 Seyfert (Sy) galaxies which have both near-UV (F330W) and narrow-band [O iii] high-resolution Hubble images. For the majority of the objects, we find a very similar morphology in both bands. From the [O iii] images, we construct synthetic images of the nebular continuum plus the emission-line contribution expected through the F330W filter, which can be subtracted from the F330W images. We find that the emission of the ionized gas dominates the near-UV extended emission in half of the objects. A further broad-band photometric study, in the bands F330W (U), F547M (V) and F160W (H), shows that the remaining emission is dominated by the underlying galactic bulge contribution. We also find a blue component whose nature is not clear in four out of 15 objects. This component may be attributed to scattered light from the active galactic nuclei, to a young stellar population in unresolved star clusters, or to early disrupted clusters. Star-forming regions and/or bright off nuclear star clusters are observed in 4/15 galaxies of the sample.

AB The observed energy-loss rate from the solar corona implies that the coronal magnetic field has a critical angle at which energy is released. It has been hypothesized that at this critical angle an "explosive instability" would occur, leading to an enhanced conversion of magnetic energy into heat. In earlier investigations, we have shown that a shear-dependent magnetohydrodynamic process called "secondary instability" has many of the distinctive features of the hypothetical "explosive instability." In this paper, we give the first demonstration that this "secondary instability" occurs in a system with line-tied magnetic fields and boundary shearing basically the situation described by Parker. We also show that, as the disturbance due to secondary instability attains finite amplitude, there is a transition to turbulence which leads to enhanced dissipation of magnetic and kinetic energy. These results are obtained from numerical simulations performed with a new parallelized, viscoresistive, three-dimensional code that solves the cold plasma equations. The code employs a Fourier collocation-finite difference spatial discretization, and uses a third-order Runge-Kutta temporal discretization.

AB We present the UV, optical, X-ray, and radio properties of the Type IIb SN 2008ax discovered in NGC 4490. The observations in the UV are one of the earliest of a Type IIb supernova (SN). On approximately day 4 after the explosion, a dramatic upturn in the u and uvw1 (lambda(c) = 2600 angstrom) light curves occurred after an initial rapid decline which is attributed to adiabatic cooling after the initial shock breakout. This rapid decline and upturn is reminiscent of the Type IIb SN 1993J on day 6 after the explosion. Optical/near-IR spectra taken around the peak reveal prominent H alpha, He I, and Ca II absorption lines. A fading X-ray source is also located at the position of SN 2008ax, implying an interaction of the SN shock with the surrounding circumstellar material and a mass-loss rate of the progenitor of (M) over dot = (9 +/- 3) x 10(-6) M(circle dot) yr(-1). The unusual time evolution (14 days) of the 6 cm peak radio luminosity provides further evidence that themass-loss rate is low. Combining the UV, optical, X-ray, and radio data with models of helium exploding stars implies the progenitor of SN 2008ax was an unmixed star in an interacting binary. Modeling of the SN light curve suggests a kinetic energy (E(k)) of 0.5 x 10(51) erg, an ejecta mass (M(ej)) of 2.9 M(circle dot), and a nickel mass (M(Ni)) of 0.06 M(circle dot).

AB We describe the deposition and properties of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of methyl-terminated alkanethiols on InAs(001) surface. For these model hydrophobic films, we used water contact angle measurements to survey the preparation of alkanethiol monolayers from base-activated ethanolic Solutions as a function of the solution and deposition parameters, including chain length of alkanethiols, deposition time, and solution temperature and pH. We then used X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), ellipsometry, and electrochemistry to characterize the composition and structure of octadecanethiol (ODT) monolayers deposited on InAs tinder optimized conditions. When applied to a thoroughly degreased InAs(001) wafer surface, the basic ODT solution removes the native oxide without excessively etching the underlying InAs(001) substrate. The resulting Film contains approximately one monolayer of ODT molecules, attached to the InAs surface almost exclusively via thiolate bonds to In atoms, with organic chains extended away from the surface. These ODT monolayers are stable against degradation and oxidation in air, organic solvents, and aqueous buffers. The same base-activated ODT treatment can also be used to passivate exposed InAs/AlSb quantum well (QW) devices, preserving the unique electronic properties of InAs surfaces and allowing the operation of such passivated devices as continuous flow pH-sensors.

AB An enterovirus was cultured from an erosive tongue lesion of a bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus). The morphology of virions on negative staining electron microscopy was consistent with those of enteroviruses. Analysis of 2613 bp of the polyprotein gene identified the isolate as a novel enterovirus strain, tentatively named bottlenose dolphin enterovirus (BDEV), that nests within the species Bovine enterovirus. Serologic evidence of exposure to enteroviruses was common in both free-ranging and managed collection dolphins. Managed collection dolphins were more likely to have high antibody levels, although the highest levels were reported in free-ranging populations. Associations between enterovirus antibody levels, and age, sex, complete blood counts, and clinical serum biochemistries were explored. Dolphins with higher antibody levels were more likely to be hyperproteinemic and hyperglobulinemic. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Background: Background: Cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) is one of the well-characterized virulence factors of Campylobacter jejuni, but it is unknown how CDT becomes surface-exposed or is released from the bacterium to the surrounding environment.
Results: Our data suggest that CDT is secreted to the bacterial culture supernatant via outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) released from the bacteria. All three subunits (the CdtA, CdtB, and CdtC proteins) were detected by immunogold labeling and electron microscopy of OMVs. Subcellular fractionation of the bacteria indicated that, apart from the majority of CDT detected in the cytoplasmic compartment, appreciable amounts (20-50%) of the cellular pool of CDT proteins were present in the periplasmic compartment. In the bacterial culture supernatant, we found that a majority of the extracellular CDT was tightly associated with the OMVs. Isolated OMVs could exert the cell distending effects typical of CDT on a human intestinal cell line, indicating that CDT is present there in a biologically active form.
Conclusion: Our results strongly suggest that the release of outer membrane vesicles is functioning as a route of C. jejuni to deliver all the subunits of CDT toxin ( CdtA, CdtB, and CdtC) to the surrounding environment, including infected host tissue.

AB Objective. Circulating catecholamines; and adrenal steroids are significantly increased following traumatic brain injury, and elevations in plasma catecholamines and cortisol portend a poor outcome. We hypothesize that an increase in the generation of reactive oxygen species from the synthesis of adrenal steroids and catecholamines is responsible for neuronal injury following traumatic brain injury. As a first step in testing this hypothesis, we sought to determine whether or not inhibition of catecholamine synthesis would decrease neuronal damage. Methods and Results. Using PC12 cells as a model of catecholamine synthesizing neurons, and serum deprivation as a method to induce neuronal damage, we show (1) adrenal corticosteroids increase reactive oxygen species formation and apoptosis induced by serum deprivation; (2) the inhibitor of catecholamine synthesis, alpha-methyltyrosine, reduces reactive oxygen species formation and apoptosis in PC12 cells; and (3) that acetazolamide, chlorthalidone, and the neurosteroid, allopregnanolone, which inhibits chloride transport, protect. PC12 cells from apoptosis. Conclusions. it may be possible to protect catecholaminergic neurons from reactive oxygen species-induced apoptotic death by not only blocking catecholamine synthesis, but also, by inhibiting carbonic anhydrase-dependent chloride/bicarbonate exchange with acetazolamide or chlorthalidone. These agents may prove salutary in reducing cell death in patients with traumatic brain injury or stroke. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB We overview the current status of axions as dark matter. The axion is the pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson which arises from the Peccei-Quinn solution to the strong CP problem. Additionally, cold axion populations that can contribute to the dark matter of the universe will be generated via this mechanism. After reviewing these topics, we focus on constraints from the laboratory, astrophysics and cosmology. We discuss the current status of experimental searches and the consequences of the distribution of dark matter axions in the galactic halo for these searches. The axion remains an excellent candidate for the dark matter and future experiments, particularly the Axion Dark Matter eXperiment (ADMX), will cover a large fraction of the axion parameter space.

During sea breeze relaxation (-0.05 < tau(sx) < 0.05 Pa), a background wave driven inner-shelf Eulerian undertow profile exists, which is equal and opposite to the Lagrangian Stokes drift profile, resulting in a net zero Lagrangian transport at depth in the presence of a sea breeze (tau(sx) > 005 Pa), a uniform offshore profile develops that is different from the background undertow profile allowing cross-shore Lagrangian transport to develop, while including Lagrangian Stokes drift The diurnal cross-shore current response is similar to subtidal ( > 25 h) cross-shore current response as, found by Fewings et al (2008) The seasonality of waves and winds modify the diurnal sea breeze impact. it is suggested that material is not transported cross-shore except during sea breeze events owing to near zero transport during relaxation periods During sea breeze events, cross-shore exchange of material appears to occur onshore near the Surface and offshore near the sea bed Since sea breeze events last for a few hours. the long-term cross-shore transport is incremental each day Published by Elsevier Ltd

AB The oceanographic and tectonic conditions of accretionary margins are well-suited for several potential processes governing methane generation, storage and release. To identify the relevant methane evolution pathways in the northern Cascadia accretionary margin, a four-site transect was drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 311. The delta(13)C values of methane range from a minimum value of -82.2%. on an uplifted ridge of accreted sediment near the deformation front (Site U1326, 1829 mbsl, meters below sea level) to a maximum value of -39.5%. at the most landward location within an area of steep canyons near the shelf edge (Site U1329, 946 mbsl). An interpretation based solely on methane isotope values might conclude the (13)C-enrichment of methane indicates a transition from microbially- to thermogenically-sourced methane. However, the co-existing CO(2) exhibits a similar trend of (13)C-enrichment along the transect with values ranging from -22.5 parts per thousand to +25.7 parts per thousand. The magnitude of the carbon isotope separation between methane and CO(2) (epsilon(c) = 63.8 +/- 5.8) is consistent with isotope fractionation during microbially mediated carbonate reduction. These results, in conjunction with a transect-wide gaseous hydrocarbon content composed of > 99.8% (by volume) methane and uniform delta D(CH4) values (-172 parts per thousand +/- 8) that are distinct from thermogenic methane at a seep located 60 km from the Expedition 311 transect, suggest microbial CO(2) reduction is the predominant methane source at all investigated sites. The magnitude of the intra-site downhole (13)C-enrichment Of CO(2) within the accreted ridge (Site U1326) and a slope basin nearest the deformation front (Site U1325, 2195 mbsl) is similar to 5 parts per thousand. At the mid-slope site (Site U1327, 1304 mbsl) the downhole (13)C-enrichment of the CO(2) is similar to 25 parts per thousand and increases to similar to 40 parts per thousand at the near-shelf edge Site U1329. This isotope fractionation pattern is indicative of more extensive diagenetic alteration at sites with greater (13)C-enrichment. The magnitude of the (13)C-enrichment Of CO(2) correlates with decreasing sedimentation rates and a diminishing occurrence of stratigraphic gas hydrate. We suggest the decreasing sedimentation rates increase the exposure time of sedimentary organic matter to aerobic and anaerobic degradation, during burial, thereby reducing the availability of metabolizable organic matter available for methane production. This process is reflected in the occurrence and distribution of gas hydrate within the northern Cascadia margin accretionary prism. Our observations are relevant for evaluating methane production and the occurrence of stratigraphic gas hydrate within other convergent margins. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB We demonstrate that, when distributed as nanoscale coatings on the walls of carbon nanofoam substrates, manganese oxides exhibit voltammetric signatures in LiOH-containing alkaline electrolytes that are characteristic of either electrochemical capacitors or batteries, depending on the potential range investigated. Pseudocapacitance is observed for positive potential ranges, and ex-situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy confirms that the native layered birnessite MnOx structure is retained as the Mn oxidation state is toggled between 3.72 and 3.43. When the cycling range is extended to more negative potential limits, well-defined reduction and oxidation features are observed, with an associated reversible change in the Mn oxidation state of 0.71 after 25 cycles. For these deep-discharge conditions, high charge-storage capacities are facilitated by the reversible interconversion of birnessite and gamma-MnOOH forms of the nanoscale MnOx coating. Solid-state Li-7 NMR is used to investigate the role of Li+ from the alkaline electrolyte in enhancing the cycling stability of the MnOx-carbon nanofoam.

AB Surface, airborne, and satellite measurements over the eastern Pacific Ocean off the coast of California during the period between 2005 and 2007 are used to explore the relationship between ocean chlorophyll a, aerosol, and marine clouds. Periods of enhanced chlorophyll a and wind speed are coincident with increases in particulate diethylamine and methanesulfonate concentrations. The measurements indicate that amines are a source of secondary organic aerosol in the marine atmosphere. Subsaturated aerosol hygroscopic growth measurements indicate that the organic component during periods of high chlorophyll a and wind speed exhibit considerable water uptake ability. Increased average cloud condensation nucleus (CCN) activity during periods of increased chlorophyll a levels likely results from both size distribution and aerosol composition changes. The available data over the period of measurements indicate that the cloud microphysical response, as represented by either cloud droplet number concentration or cloud droplet effective radius, is likely influenced by a combination of atmospheric dynamics and aerosol perturbations during periods of high chlorophyll a concentrations.

AB "AIPO(4)"-coated LiCoO2 was shown to exhibit markedly improved capacity retention and reduced impedance growth relative to bare "LiCoO2" upon cycling to 4.7 V. Scanning electron microscopy imaging showed that file surfaces of the cycled bare "LiCoO2" particles remained very smooth whereas there were many newly formed patches distributed on the surfaces of the cycled coated particles. X-ray powder diffraction analyses revealed that select peak broadening was observed for cycled bare electrodes suggesting that structural damage to LixCoO2 was introduced upon cycling. In contrast, no apparent structural changes to LixCoO2 were found for cycled coated electrodes. Pristine and cycled bare and "AIPO(4)"-coated LiCoO2 electrodes were studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. No significant change was detected in the surface chemistry of Co for cycled bare electrodes, but surface LiF and LixPFyOz components were found to considerably increase during cycling, which led to partial surface coverage of LixCoO2. A very small amount of Co-containing oxyfluoride species was detected oil the cycled bare electrodes while considerable amounts of Co-containing and Al-containing fluorides and/or oxyfluorides and species such as PFx(OH)(y) were found oil the cycled coated electrodes, which completely covered the surfaces of the LixCoO2 particles. The mechanism responsible for the enhanced cycling stability and reduced impedance of coated relative to bare electrodes is discussed in detail.

AB The NRL SAMI3/ESF three-dimensional simulation code is used to examine the effect of zonal neutral winds on the dynamics and morphology of equatorial spread F (ESF). Three zonal wind models are used: (a) a constant eastward neutral wind of 150 m/s, (b) HWM93, and (c) HWM07. It is shown that the dynamics and morphology of the ESF bubbles depends strongly on the zonal neutral wind. The simulation results are compared with TIMED/GUVI and IMAGE/FUV data. For the conditions studied (F10.7 = 170) it is found that the HWM93 wind model results agree better with the data than those from a constant wind model or HWM07. Specifically, observations of a reversed 'C' shaped FUV image, a westward tilt of the plasma bubble, and a decrease in zonal bubble velocity with increasing latitude are reproduced by SAMI3/ESF.

AB We characterize the nonlinear propagation of picosecond pulses in chalcogenide As2S3 single-mode fiber using a pump-probe technique. The cross-phase modulation (XPM)-induced sideband broadening and stimulated Raman scattering (SRS)-induced sideband amplification are measured in order to map out the Raman gain spectrum of this glass across the C-band. We extract the Raman response function from the Raman gain spectrum and determine the power and polarization dependence of the SRS. In contrast to previous work using As2Se3 fiber, we find that the As2S3 fiber does not suffer from large two-photon absorption (TPA) in the wavelength range of the telecommunications band. We achieved a 20 dB peak Raman gain at a Stokes shift of 350 cm(-1) in a 205 mm length of As2S3 single-mode fiber. The Raman gain coefficient is estimated to be 4.3 x 10(-12) m/W and the threshold pump peak power is estimated to be 16.2W for the 205 mm As2S3 fiber. We also demonstrate that we can infer the dispersion of the As2S3 fiber and justify the Raman response function by comparing simulation and experimental results. (C) 2009 Optical Society of America

AB We compare the performance, stability and microstructure of Si/Gd multilayers containing thin barrier layers of W, B4C, or SiNx, and determine that multilayers containing 0.6 nm thick W barrier layers at each interface provide the best compromise between high peak reflectance in the extreme ultraviolet near lambda = 60 nm and good stability upon heating. The Si/W/Gd films have sharper interfaces and also show vastly superior thermal stability relative to Si/Gd multilayers without barrier layers. We find that these structures have relatively small compressive film stresses, and show good temporal stability thus far. We measured a peak reflectance of 29.7% at lambda = 62.5 nm, and a spectral bandpass of Delta lambda = 9 nm (FWHM), for an optimized Si/W/Gd multilayer having a period d = 32.0 nm.

AB We prove convergence of the finite element method for the Navier-Stokes equations in which the no-slip condition and no-penetration condition on the flow boundary are imposed via a penalty method. This approach has been previously studied for the Stokes problem by Liakos (Weak imposition of boundary conditions in the Stokes problem. Ph.D. Thesis, University of Pittsburgh, 1999). Since, in most realistic applications, inertial effects dominate, it is crucial to extend the validity of the method to the nonlinear Navier-Stokes case. This report includes the analysis of this extension, as well as numerical results validating their analytical counterparts. Specifically, we show that optimal order of convergence can be achieved if the computational boundary follows the real flow boundary exactly. Copyright (C) 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB The retention of floating matter within the surf zone on a rip-channeled beach is examined with a combination of detailed field observations obtained during the Rip Current Experiment and a three-dimensional (3-D) wave and flow model. The acoustic Doppler current profiler-observed hourly vertical cross-shore velocity structure variability over a period of 3 days with normally incident swell is well reproduced by the computations, although the strong vertical attenuation of the subsurface rip current velocities at the most offshore location outside the surf zone in 4 m water depth is not well predicted. Corresponding mean alongshore velocities are less well predicted with errors on the order of 10 cm/s for the most offshore sensors. Model calculations of very low frequency motions (VLFs) with O(10) min timescales typically explain over 60% of the observed variability, both inside and outside of the surf zone. The model calculations also match the mean rip-current surface flow field inferred from GPS-equipped drifter trajectories. Seeding the surf zone with a large number of equally spaced virtual drifters, the computed instantaneous surface velocity fields are used to calculate the hourly drifter trajectories. Collecting the hourly drifter exits, good agreement with the observed surf zone retention is obtained provided that both Stokes drift and VLF motions are accounted for in the modeling of the computed drifter trajectories. Without Stokes drift, the estimated number of virtual drifter exits is O(80)%, almost an order of magnitude larger than the O(20)% of observed exits during the drifter deployments. Conversely, when excluding the VLF motions instead, the number of calculated drifter exits is less than 5%, thus significantly underestimating the number of observed exits.

AB We use a recently proposed method (Berthier, L.; Biroli, G.; Bouchaud, J.P.; Cipelletti, L.; El Masri, D.; L'Hote, D.; Ladieu, F.; Pierno, M. Science 2005, 310, 1797) to obtain an approximation to the four-point dynamic correlation function from derivatives of the linear dielectric response function. For four liquids over a range of pressures, we find that the number of dynamically correlated molecules, N-c, depends essentially only on the magnitude of the relaxation time, tau(alpha) independently of temperature and pressure. This result is consistent with the invariance of the shape of the relaxation dispersion at constant tau(alpha) and the density scaling property of the relaxation times, and implies that N-c also conforms to the same scaling behavior. For propylene carbonate and salol, N-c becomes constant with approach to the Arrhenius regime, consistent with the value of unity expected for intermolecularly noncooperative relaxation.

ID FIBER; CRYPTOGRAPHY; SWITCH
AB Modern optical networking techniques have the potential to greatly extend the applicability of quantum communications by moving beyond simple point-to-point optical links and by leveraging existing fibre infrastructures. We experimentally demonstrate many of the fundamental capabilities that are required. These include optical-layer multiplexing, switching and routing of quantum signals; quantum key distribution (QKD) in a dynamically reconfigured optical network; and coexistence of quantum signals with strong conventional telecom traffic on the same fibre. We successfully operate QKD at 1310 nm over a fibre shared with four optically amplified data channels near 1550 nm. We identify the dominant impairment as spontaneous anti-Stokes Raman scattering of the strong signals, quantify its impact, and measure and model its propagation through fibre. We describe a quantum networking architecture which can provide the flexibility and scalability likely to be critical for supporting widespread deployment of quantum applications.

AB This paper reports pH-selective potentiometric responses of epitaxial nitrogen-polar (0001) GaN films on sapphire substrates. The potential of a nitrogen-polar GaN substrate increased with decreasing solution pH from 10 to 2 in a Nernstian manner, whereas it did not significantly change upon increasing the concentrations of the cationic and anionic interfering species. In particular, the negligible responses to anions marked a sharp contrast with previously reported results on gallium-polar GaN that exhibited Nernstian responses to anions. The potentiometric response to pH probably originates from the adsorption of H(+) onto oxide-coated nitrogen-polar GaN substrates having polarization-induced negative surface charge.

In our experiments, the pump laser beam is injected into a doped LiNbO(3) crystal with 5% MgO, and the exiting pump beam is redirected back through the nonlinear crystal. Our data show that the terahertz beam output power increases almost four times in magnitude, when the pump beam is recycled once in crossed-beam geometry. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

AB A temperature and current velocity mooring, located on the upper continental slope of the northern South China Sea, recorded a number of second baroclinic mode (mode 2) internal solitary waves (ISWs). These types of waves are seldom observed in nature. The mode 2 ISWs typically showed upward (downward) displacement of isotherms in the upper (lower) water column and three layers of eastward, westward, and eastward current from the uppermost to bottommost portions of a wave. In summer, westward-propagating mode 2 ISWs were observed only occasionally. These waves generally appeared after mode 1 ISWs, a feature that may relate to the diurnal tide with a period of approximately 24 hours. The displacement of isotherms induced by mode 2 ISWs was 20 +/- 14 m at 75 m and -22 +/- 15 m at 240 m, and the characteristic time scale was approximately 8.0 +/- 4.3 min. In winter, mode 2 ISWs were more active but mode 1 ISWs were rarely observed. Isotherm displacement by mode 2 ISWs in winter was 30 +/- 18 m at 75 m and -26 +/- 16 m at 240 m, and the average characteristic time scale was 6.9 +/- 4.6 min. The mode 2 ISWs thus had larger amplitudes and smaller time scales in winter than they did in summer. The observed vertical temperature profile also showed notable seasonal change. The thermocline was shallow in summer and deep in winter. In winter, vertical temperature profiles indicated that the main thermocline was located near middepth over the upper continental slope near the 350 m isobath. Mode 1 ISWs were more active in summer than in winter, reflecting the larger Ursell numbers for mode 1 ISWs in summer. Among mode 2 ISWs in summer, 90% appeared after mode 1 ISWs. These results suggest that mode 2 ISWs could be related to mode 1 ISWs. In contrast, mode 2 ISWs were more active in winter than in summer, with larger mode 2 Ursell numbers also found in winter. Among winter mode 2 ISWs, 72% appeared without mode 1 ISWs. Mode 2 ISWs in winter could be related to the main thermocline being located near middepth. These seasonal variations of mode 2 ISWs were correlated with the seasonal change of local stratification. Further study on the different generating mechanisms of mode 2 ISWs in summer and winter is needed.

AB The controlled self-assembly of molecules and interactions between them remain a challenge in creating tunable and functional organic nanostructures. One class of molecular systems that has proven useful for incorporating tunable functionality at different length scales is liquid crystals (LCs) due to its ability to inherently self-organize. Here we present a novel approach to utilize the self-assembly of polymerizable liquid crystals to control the molecular aggregation of stable fluorescent chromophores and create a unique class of organic fluorescent nanocolloids, By adjusting the ratio between the dye and LC molecules inside the nanocolloids, we demonstrate the ability to control the molecular interactions and tune the fluorescent emission spectra of nanocolloid populations under single wavelength excitation, The single absorption spectrum and multiple emission spectra are highly desirable and reminiscent of the spectroscopic signature of quantum dots. These novel fluorescent nanocolloids have broad potential applications In fluorescent imaging and biological labeling.

AB Relativistic neutrons were observed by the neutron monitors at Mt. Chacaltaya and Mexico City and by the solar neutron telescopes at Chacaltaya and Mt. Sierra Negra in association with an X17.0 flare on 2005 September 7. The neutron signal continued for more than 20 min with high statistical significance. Intense emissions of gamma-rays were also registered by INTEGRAL, and during the decay phase by RHESSI. We analyzed these data using the solar-flare magnetic-loop transport and interaction model of Hua et al. [Hua, X.-M., Kozlovsky, B., Lingenfelter, R.E. et al. Angular and energy-dependent neutron emission from solar flare magnetic loops, Astrophys. J. Suppl. Ser. 140, 563-579, 2002], and found that the model could successfully fit the data with intermediate values of loop magnetic convergence and pitch-angle scattering parameters. These results indicate that solar neutrons were produced at the same time as the gamma-ray line emission and that ions were continuously accelerated at the emission site. (C) 2009 COSPAR.

TI Urinalysis is not reliable to detect a urinary tract infection in
febrile infants presenting to the ED
SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF EMERGENCY MEDICINE
LA English
DT Article
ID CHILDREN; FEVER; AGE
AB Objective: Urinary tract infections are a common source of serious bacterial infections in febrile infants younger than 2 years. Our objective was to compare urinalysis with urine culture in the emergency department evaluation of febrile infants.
Methods: A febrile infant registry was instituted at a tertiary care hospital treating an average of 55000 patients annually (27% children), from December 2002 to December 2003. Patients were eligible if they were younger than 3 months and had a temperature of at least 38 degrees C or if they were between 3 and 24 months of age and had a temperature of at least 39 degrees C. Data abstracted included age, sex, and temperature. Urinalysis (UA) and urine culture (UCx) results were obtained from electronic hospital archives.
Results: Nine hundred eighty-five patients were entered into the febrile infant registry. Male patients comprised 55%. The mean age of patients was 12.6 months; median was 12 months. Four hundred thirty-five (78% of eligible patients) had both a UA and UCx from the same specimen, and there were 45 (10.3%) positive UCx result. Females accounted for 33 (73%) of 45 positive results. The sensitivity of UA for predicting a positive UCx result was 64% (95% confidence interval [CI], 49%-78%), whereas the specificity was 91% (95% CI, 88%-94%). The positive predictive value was 46% (95% Cl, 31%-53%), with a negative predictive value of 96% (95% Cl, 93%-97%).
Conclusion: Urinalysis is not reliable for the detection of urinary tract infections in febrile infants when compared with urine cultures. Published by Elsevier Inc.

SO AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSICS

DT Article
AB Superposition of multiple sources, constructive and destructive interference, and array beam forming are common topics demonstrated in undergraduate acoustic classes. The student learning experience is enhanced by building a system with speakers and measuring the resulting amplitude at various angles with a microphone. This experiment is often performed in an anechoic chamber to achieve quantitative agreement between theory and experiment. We have developed a simple tabletop apparatus using inexpensive ultrasonic transducers that yields comparable results without the need to use an anechoic chamber. [DOI: 10.1119/1.3168976]

We start by providing a quick overview of the basic properties of semiconductor nanocrystals, including synthetic routes, surface-functionalization strategies, along with the main attributes of QDs that are of direct relevance to single molecule studies based on fluorescence detection. We then detail some valuable insights into specific biological processes gained using single QDs. These include progress made in probing biomolecular interactions, tracking of protein receptors both in vitro and in live cells, and single particle resonance energy transfer. We will also discuss the advantages offered and limitations encountered by single QD fluorescence as an investigative tool in biology.

AB Objectives: We describe the manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of rare head and neck infections caused by Mycobacterium chelonae, including a case of maxillary osteitis and skull base osteomyelitis.
Methods: A comprehensive literature search (MEDLINE from 195 1; BIOSIS from 1969; EMBASE from 1980) was performed formed for the presentation, diagnostic evaluation, and outcomes of patients with M chelonae infections.
Results: We report 4 cases of M chelonae infection, including a nasal abscess following septorhinoplasty with a cartilaginous graft, a case of chronic unilateral nasal obstruction, and the first reported cases of skull base osteomyelitis and maxillary osteitis secondary to M chelonae. All 4 cases involved immunocompetent individuals.
Conclusions: Mycobacterium chelonae should be considered in cases of abscesses that persist despite broad-spectrum intravenous antibiotics, and in cases of maxillary sinusitis with bony involvement that do not respond to traditional treatment methods.

AB Aims. We study the transition region (TR) properties above sunspots and the surrounding plage regions, by analyzing several sunspot reference spectra obtained by the SUMER ( Solar Ultraviolet Measurements of Emitted Radiation) instrument in March 1999 and November 2006.
Methods. We compare the SUMER spectra observed in the umbra, penumbra, plage, and sunspot plume regions. The hydrogen Lyman line profiles averaged in each of the four regions are presented. For the sunspot observed in 2006, the electron densities, differential emission measure (DEM), and filling factors of the TR plasma in the four regions are also investigated.
Results. The self-reversals of the hydrogen Lyman line profiles are almost absent in sunspots at different locations (at heliocentric angles of up to 49 degrees) on the solar disk. In the sunspot plume, the Lyman lines are also not reversed, whilst the lower Lyman line profiles observed in the plage region are obviously reversed, a phenomenon found also in the normal quiet Sun. The TR densities of the umbra and plume are similar and one order of magnitude lower than those of the plage and penumbra. The DEM curve of the sunspot plume exhibits a peak centered at log(T/K) similar to 5.45, which exceeds the DEM of other regions by one to two orders of magnitude at these temperatures. We also find that more than 100 lines, which are very weak or not observed anywhere else on the Sun, are well observed by SUMER in the sunspot, especially in the sunspot plume.
Conclusions. We suggest that the TR above sunspots is higher and probably more extended, and that the opacity of the hydrogen lines is much lower above sunspots, compared to the TR above plage regions. Our result indicates that the enhanced TR emission of the sunspot plume is probably caused by a large filling factor. The strongly enhanced emission at TR temperatures and the reduced continuum ensure that many normally weak TR lines are clearly distinctive in the spectra of sunspot plumes.

ID CELESTIAL REFERENCE FRAME; CCD ASTROGRAPH CATALOG; GUIDE STAR CATALOG;
DIGITAL SKY SURVEY; POSITIONS
AB Context. The large number and all-sky distribution of quasars from different surveys, along with their presence in large, deep astrometric catalogs, enables us to build of an optical materialization of the International Celestial Reference System (ICRS) following its defining principles. Namely: that it is kinematically non-rotating with respect to the ensemble of distant extragalactic objects; aligned with the mean equator and dynamical equinox of J2000; and realized by a list of adopted coordinates of extragalatic sources.
Aims. The Large Quasar Reference Frame (LQRF) was built with the care of avoiding incorrect matches of its constituents quasars, homogenizing the astrometry from the different catalogs and lists in which the constituent quasars are gathered, and attaining a milli-arcsec global alignment with the International Celestial Reference Frame ( ICRF), as well as typical individual source position accuracies higher than 100 milli-arcsec(star).
Methods. Starting from the updated and presumably complete Large Quasar Astrometric Catalog (LQAC) list of QSOs, the initial optical positions of those quasars are found in the USNO B1.0 and GSC2.3 catalogs, and from the SDSS Data Release 5. The initial positions are next placed onto UCAC2-based reference frames, This is followed by an alignment with the ICRF, to which were added the most precise sources from the VLBA calibrator list and the VLA calibrator list - when reliable optical counterparts exist. Finally, the LQRF axes are inspected through spherical harmonics, to define right ascension, declination and magnitude terms.
Results. The LQRF contains 100,165 quasars, well represented accross the sky, from -83.5 to +88.5 degrees in declination, being 10 arcmin the average distance between adjacent elements. The global alignment with the ICRF is 1.5 mas, and the individual position accuracies are represented by a Poisson distribution that peaks at 139 mas in right ascension and 130 mas in declination. As a by-product, significant equatorial corrections are found for all the catalogs used ( apart from the SDSS DR5), an empirical magnitude correction can be discussed for the GSC2.3 intermediate and faint regimes, both the 2MASS and the preliminary northernmost UCAC2 positions are shown of astrometry consistent with the UCAC2 main catalog, and the harmonic terms are found to be always small.
Conclusions. The LQRF contains J2000 referred equatorial coordinates, and is complemented by redshift and photometry information from the LQAC. It is designed to be an astrometric frame, but it is also the basis for the GAIA mission initial quasars' list, and can be used as a test bench for quasars' space distribution and luminosity function studies. The LQRF is meant to be updated when new quasar identifications and newer versions of the astrometric frames used are realized. In the later case, it can itself be used to examine the relations between those frames.

AB We studied the growth of the shell-like radio structure of supernova SN1993J in M 81 from September 1993 to October 2003 with very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations at the wavelengths of 3.6, 6, and 18 cm. We developed a method to accurately determine the outer radius (R) of any circularly symmetric compact radio structure such as SN1993J.
The source structure of SN 1993J remains circularly symmetric (with deviations from circularity under 2%) over almost 4000 days. We characterize the decelerated expansion of SN 1993J until approximately day 1500 after explosion with an expansion parameter m = 0.845 +/- 0.005 (R proportional to t(m)). However, from that day onwards the expansion differs when observed at 6 and 18 cm. Indeed, at 18 cm, the expansion can be well characterized by the same m as before day 1500, while at 6 cm the expansion appears more decelerated, and is characterized by another expansion parameter, m(6) = 0.788 +/- 0.015. Therefore, since about day 1500 onwards, the radio source size has been progressively smaller at 6 cm than at 18 cm. These findings differ significantly from those of other authors in the details of the expansion. In our interpretation, the supernova expands with a single expansion parameter, m = 0.845 +/- 0.005, and the 6 cm results beyond day 1500 are caused by physical effects, perhaps also coupled to instrumental limitations. Two physical effects may be involved: (a) a changing opacity of the ejecta to the 6 cm radiation; and (b) a radial decrease of the magnetic field in the emitting region.
We also found that at 6 cm about 80% of the radio emission from the backside of the shell behind the ejecta is absorbed (our average estimate, since we cannot determine any possible evolution of the opacity), and the width of the radio shell is (31 +/- 2)% of the outer radius. The shell width at 18 cm depends on the degree of assumed absorption. For 80% absorption, the width is (33.5 +/- 1.7)%, and for 100% absorption, it is (37.8 +/- 1.3)%.
A comparison of our VLBI results with optical spectral line velocities shows that the deceleration is more pronounced in the radio than in the optical. This difference might be due to a progressive penetration of ejecta instabilities into the shocked circumstellar medium, as also suggested by other authors.

AB Context. Hierarchical models of structure formation predict that galaxy clusters grow via mergers of smaller clusters and galaxy groups, as well as through continuous accretion of gas. MACS J0717.5+3745 is an X-ray luminous and complex merging cluster, located at a redshift of 0.5548. The cluster is suspected to host a bright radio relic, but up until now no detailed radio observations have been reported. Here we present Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope (GMRT) radio observations at 610 MHz of this cluster.
Aims. The main aim of the observations is to study the diffuse radio emission within the galaxy cluster MACS J0717.5+3745 related to the ongoing merger.
Methods. We have carried out GMRT 610 MHz continuum observations of MACS J0717.5+3745. These are complemented by Very Large Array (VLA) archival observations at 1.4, 4.9 and 8.5 GHz.
Results. We have discovered a radio halo in the cluster MACS J0717.5+3745 with a size of about 1.2 Mpc. The monochromatic radio power at 1400 MHz (P(1.4)) is 5 x 10(25) W Hz(-1), which makes it the most powerful radio halo known to date. A 700 kpc radio structure, which we classify as a radio relic, is located in between the merging substructures of the system. The global spectral index of radio emission within the cluster is found to be -1.24 +/- 0.05 between 4.9 GHz and 610 MHz. We derive a value of 5.8 mu G for the equipartition magnetic field strength at the location of the radio halo. The location of the relic roughly coincides with regions of the intra-cluster medium (ICM) that have a significant enhancement in temperature as shown by Chandra. The major axis of the relic is also roughly perpendicular to the merger axis. This shows that the relic might be the result of a merger-related shock wave, where particles are accelerated via the diffuse shock acceleration (DSA) mechanism. Alternatively, the relic might trace an accretion shock of a large-scale galaxy filament to the south-east.

AB The Large Area Telescope (LAT) on-board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope began its on-orbit operations on June 23, 2008. Calibrations, defined in a generic sense, correspond to synchronization of trigger signals, optimization of delays for latching data, determination of detector thresholds, gains and responses, evaluation of the perimeter of the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA), measurements of live time, of absolute time, and internal and spacecraft boresight alignments. Here we describe on-orbit calibration results obtained using known astrophysical sources, galactic cosmic rays, and charge injection into the front-end electronics of each detector. Instrument response functions will be described in a separate publication. This paper demonstrates the stability of calibrations and describes minor changes observed since launch. These results have been used to calibrate the LAT datasets to be publicly released in August 2009. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI AN ABSENCE OF X-RAY ACCRETION SHOCK INSTABILITY SIGNATURES IN TW HYDRAE

AB Gas accreting onto T Tauri stars should form shocks that are susceptible to the classical radiative shock instability. The instability should give rise to strong periodic modulation in the X-ray emission from the shock-heated plasma. Time series analysis of soft X-rays thought to arise predominantly in an accretion shock on the classical T Tauri star TW Hydrae reveals no periodic variations and a 99% confidence pulsed fraction limit of 5% over the frequency range 0.0001-6.81 Hz. We find no clear explanation for the absence of X-ray instability signatures, but suggest that existing one-dimensional models are too simple to explain the three-dimensional shock structure, or that preheating and deceleration of the accretion stream by the damping of magnetohydrodynamic waves excited either by the shock itself, or more deeply in the stellar envelope, could ameliorate the instability in the likely case of a sub-Alfvenic shock.

AB Observations by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi mission of diffuse gamma-rays in a mid-latitude region in the third quadrant (Galactic longitude l from 200 degrees to 260 degrees and latitude vertical bar b vertical bar from 22 degrees to 60 degrees) are reported. The region contains no known large molecular cloud and most of the atomic hydrogen is within 1 kpc of the solar system. The contributions of gamma-ray point sources and inverse Compton scattering are estimated and subtracted. The residual gamma-ray intensity exhibits a linear correlation with the atomic gas column density in energy from 100 MeV to 10 GeV. The measured integrated gamma-ray emissivity is (1.63 +/- 0.05) x 10(-26) photons s(-1)sr(-1) H-atom(-1) and (0.66 +/- 0.02) x 10(-26) photons s(-1)sr(-1) H-atom(-1) above 100 MeV and above 300 MeV, respectively, with an additional systematic error of similar to 10%. The differential emissivity from 100 MeV to 10 GeV agrees with calculations based on cosmic ray spectra consistent with those directly measured, at the 10% level. The results obtained indicate that cosmic ray nuclei spectra within 1 kpc from the solar system in regions studied are close to the local interstellar spectra inferred from direct measurements at the Earth within similar to 10%.

AB In this work, we describe an autonomous mobile robotic system for finding, investigating, and modeling ambient noise sources in the environment. The system has been fully implemented in two different environments, using two different robotic platforms and a variety of sound source types. Making use of a two-step approach to autonomous exploration of the auditory scene, the robot first quickly moves through the environment to find and roughly localize unknown sound sources using the auditory evidence grid algorithm. Then, using the knowledge gained from the initial exploration, the robot investigates each source in more depth, improving upon the initial localization accuracy, identifying volume and directivity, and, finally, building a classification vector useful for detecting the sound source in the future.

ID MANIPULATION; PARTICLES; LATTICE; ARRAYS; TRAP
AB Optical chromatography involves the elegant combination of opposing optical and fluid drag forces on colloidal samples within microfluidic environments to both measure analytical differences and fractionate injected samples. Particles that encounter the focused laser beam are trapped axially along the beam and are pushed upstream from the laser focal point to rest at a point where the optical and fluid forces on the particle balance. In our recent devices particles are pushed into a region of lower microfluidic flow, where they can be retained and fractionated. Because optical and fluid forces on a particle are sensitive to differences in the physical and chemical properties of a sample, separations are possible. An optical chromatography beam focused to completely fill a fluid channel is operated as an optically tunable filter for the separation of inorganic, polymeric, and biological particle samples. We demonstrate this technique coupled with an advanced microfluidic platform and show how it can be used as an effective method to fractionate particles from an injected multicomponent sample. Our advanced three-stage microfluidic design accommodates three lasers simultaneously to effectively create a sequential cascade optical chromatographic separation system.

AB Having reported that pretreatment of serum samples with EDTA at 100 C improved the sensitivity for the detection of Histoplasma antigenemia, we have evaluated this method for the detection of Coccidioides antigenemia. Urine and serum samples from patients with coccidioidomycosis were tested using the MVista Coccidioides enzyme immunoassay, and serum samples with and without EDTA-heat treatment were tested. Antigenemia was detected in 28.6% of patients whose samples were not EDTA-heat treated and in 73.1% of those whose samples were treated. Antigenuria was detected in 50% of patients. Specificity of 100% was obtained in healthy subjects, but cross-reactions were seen in 22.2% of patients with histoplasmosis or blastomycosis. EDTA-heat treatment improves the sensitivity for the detection of Coccidioides antigenemia.

AB Streaming data represent a serious challenge because implicit in the nature of streaming data, data are not exchangeable and are not storable. This means data must be processed on the fly. Density estimation is an essential tool used to make sense of data collected by large scale systems. In this paper, we present a recursive method for constructing and updating an estimate of the nonstationary probability density function.

AB Although beta-Ga2O3 thin films and nanowires (NWs) show promise as very stable and reliable active components for high temperature gas sensors, their use at room temperatures is limited due to poor electrical conductivity. To address this problem, we grew Sn-doped beta-Ga2O3 nanowires by the vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) approach. Sn-doped beta-Ga2O3 NWs with diameters of 100-250 nm retained the monoclinic beta-Ga2O3 structure, though photoluminescence (PL) emission was red-shifted by up to 50 nm relative to the deep defect band typically observed for pure beta-Ga2O3 NWs. When higher amounts of Sri were introduced, individual Ga2O3-SnO2 heterostructures (HS) self-assembled, to form three distinctive parts: monocrystalline Sn-doped beta-Ga2O3, poorly crystalline Sn-doped beta-Ga2O3, and polycrystalline Ga-doped SnO2, thus realizing a p-n junction within a single HS. Factors responsible for the self-assembly of Ga2O3-SnO2 HS are the different vapor pressures of Sri and Ga and different growth kinetics of Ga2O3 and SnO2. Inhomogeneity in chemical content and structural composition correlated with distinct optical properties along the length of single HS. When diameters of these HS were less than 100 rim, Sn-doped Ga2O3 sections of the HS exhibited the rarely observed orthorhombic epsilon-Ga2O3 phase.

AB The aim of the study was to determine age- and race-related, and overall incidence rates of insulin-requiring diabetes in adults in the US military.
Electronic records for admissions to US military and Tricare hospitals during 1990-2005 and visits to military clinics during 2000-2005 were identified using the Career History Archival Medical and Personnel System at the Naval Health Research Center, San Diego, CA, USA. Population data were obtained from the Defense Manpower Data Center and Defense Medical Epidemiology Database.
In men there were 2,918 new cases of insulin-requiring diabetes in 20,427,038 person-years at ages 18-44 years (median age 28 years) for a total age-adjusted incidence rate of 17.5 per 100,000 person-years (95% CI 16.4-18.6). Incidence rates were twice as high in black men as in white men (31.5 vs 14.5 per 100,000, p < 0.001). In women there were 414 new cases in 3,285,000 person-years at ages 18-44 years (median age 27 years), for a total age-adjusted incidence rate of 13.6 per 100,000 (95% CI 12.4-14.9). Incidence rates were twice as high in black women as in white women (21.8 vs 9.7 per 100,000, p < 0.001). In a regression model, incidence of insulin-requiring diabetes peaked annually in the winter-spring season (OR 1.46, p < 0.01). Race and seasonal differences persisted in the multivariate analysis.
Differences in incidence rates by race and season suggest a need for further research into possible reasons, including the possibility of a contribution from vitamin D deficiency. Cohort studies using prediagnostic serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D should be conducted to further evaluate this relationship.

ID POLYMER GEL ELECTROLYTES; LITHIUM; BATTERIES
AB Electrochemical intercalation studies are used to characterize a series of ionic liquids composed of a variety of cationic and anionic species. Electrochemically, the ionic liquids are characterized by cyclic voltammograms and charge-discharge experiments for the intercalation and de-intercalation of the various cationic and anionic species into graphite. X-ray structure analysis is also performed to determine the relationship between the electrochemical behaviour of the ionic liquids, and the formation of intercalated graphitic compounds. Two different types of imidazolium cations are studied, specifically the di- and trisubstituted imidazolium. These cations are paired with the following anions: tetrafluoroborate, hexafluorophosphate, bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, bis(perfluoroethanesulfonyl)imide, nitrate and hydrogen sulfate. Results indicate stronger intercalation chemistry for the trisubstituted imidazoliums, correlating with the greater charge-discharge efficiencies found for these types of ionic liquids. Many of the anions exhibit very poor charge-discharge efficiencies, correlating to very poorly formed graphite intercalates. The exception to this is the hydrogen sulfate intercalate, which had low charge-discharge efficiencies but formed a well defined graphite intercalate. Only the imide based anions exhibited both high charge-discharge efficiencies and the formation of a clearly defined graphite intercalate. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Nanoparticle-mediated drug delivery (NMDD) is an emerging research area that seeks to address many of the pharmacokinetic issues encountered with traditional systemically administered drug therapies. Although the field is still in its infancy, recent research has already highlighted the potential for improved drug delivery and targeted therapeutics; however, the real promise lies in combining drug therapy with diagnostic imaging, nucleic acid delivery/gene therapy and/or biosensing applications all in one engineered nanoparticle vector. In this review, the authors discuss the unique contributions that luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs) offer for NMDD, how they can function as a powerful nanoscale platform to understand this process at its most basic level, and even provide drug-related properties in certain circumstances. Selected examples from the current literature are utilized to describe both their potential and the contributions they have already made towards the design and implementation of NMDD vectors. Important related issues such as QD biofunctionalization and toxicity are also discussed. The paper concludes with a perspective of how this field can be expected to develop in the future.

TI Acoustic Backscattering From a Sand and a Sand/Mud Environment:
Experiments and Data/Model Comparisons

AB The results from two bottom backscattering experiments are described in this paper. These experiments occurred within about 1 km of each other but were separated by approximately five years (1999 and 2004). The experimental methods used in the second experiment were changed based on lessons learned in the first experiment. These changes and the motivation for them are discussed. The sediment at each experiment site would generally be classified as the same (as a well-sorted medium sand sediment) before the weather events (Hurricane Ivan and Tropical Storm Matthew) that occurred in late September and early October 2004. As a result of these weather events, the sediment present during the October 18, 2004 experiments was much more complicated than that in 1999 and in many places had a mud/sand surface layer. The environmental measurements in both experiments were sufficient to separate physical mechanisms responsible for scattering. For shallow grazing angles (less than 45 degrees), backscattering at frequencies between 20 and 150 kHz was attributable to sediment interface roughness in 1999, whereas volume scattering dominated in 2004. Furthermore, in 2004, volume heterogeneity within the mud/sand surface layer is a probable mechanism for the scattering feature seen in the data in the 20 degrees-30 degrees region. Above 200 kHz, the frequency dependence of both the 1999 data and the 2004 data indicates that a new scattering mechanism is coming into play. Other results within this issue [Ivakin, IEEE J. Ocean. Eng., vol. 34, no. 4, Oct. 2009] indicate that scattering from shells is a viable candidate for explaining the data above 200 kHz.

AB A statistical model for the time evolution of seafloor roughness due to biological activity is applied to photographic and acoustic data. In this model, the function describing small scale seafloor topography obeys a tune-evolution equation with a random forcing term that creates roughness and a diffusion term that degrades roughness. When compared to acoustic data from the 1999 and 2004 Sediment Acoustics Experiments (SAX99 and SAX04), the model yields diffusivities in the range from 3.5 x 10(-11) to 2.5 x 10(-10) m(2)s(-1) (from 10 to 80 cm(2)yr(-1)), with the larger values occurring at sites where bottom-feeding fish were active. While the experimental results lend support to the model, a more focused experimental and simulation effort is required to test several assumptions intrinsic to the model.

DE Buried object detection; sediment acoustics; synthetic aperture sonar

ID SUBCRITICAL PENETRATION; SANDY BOTTOM; INTERFACE; SEDIMENT
AB This paper presents observations of a buried sphere detected with a low-frequency (5-35-kHz) synthetic aperture sonar (SAS). These detections were made with good signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs) at both above and below the critical grazing angle. The raw data for the below-critical-grazing angle detection shows that the acoustic penetration is skewed by the 29 degrees offset of the ripple field relative to the sonar path. This observed skew is in agreement with T-matrix calculations carried out to model penetration into the bottom via ripple diffraction. Additionally, measured SNRs over different frequency bands are compared to predictions made using both first- and second-order perturbation theory for ripple diffraction. Both the data and the models indicate a peak detection region around 25 kHz for the environmental conditions present during the test. These results confirm that ripple diffraction can play a critical role in long range (subcritical angle) buried target detection.

AB Hurricane Ivan made landfall along the Alabama-Florida coastline on September 16, 2004 as a category 3 storm. Ivan provided a rare opportunity to quantify surficial sediment changes following a significant storm event. Sidescan sonar imagery was collected immediately offshore Santa Rosa Island, FL, five days before and after Ivan's landfall 100 km west of the study area. Particle-size, multisensor core logger, X-radiography, photography, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) grain shape, direct shear, radiocarbon isotope, and lignin-phenol analyses were performed on grab or vibracore samples collected after the storm. Sonar observations before Ivan's landfall revealed a mostly sand bottom with uniform, small-scale wind-wave ripple morphology, and a distinct area of low backscatter trending NW-SE that was interpreted to be a mud swale. Ivan introduced new material to the relict sediments and resulted in the deposition of fine-grained material across the shelf that settled in the bathymetric lows and formed mud flaser deposits. Hardbottoms were draped by sand in some locations, but exposed in others. Ripple morphology changes occurred along sand ridges. Hurricane Ivan created major sediment distribution changes along the near-shore shelf, yet served to reinforce and to maintain the ridge-and-swale topography of the northeastern Gulf of Mexico near-shore continental shelf.

ID SHALLOW-WATER; PARAMETERS
AB In this paper, inversion for bottom sediment properties at a site on the New Jersey continental shelf is studied as part of the Shallow Water Acoustic Technology (SWAT) project. A source towed at a constant water depth over a range of some tens of kilometers transmitted low-frequency continuous wave (cw) signals, which were measured on a bottom-moored vertical line array of receivers. For the along-shelf geometry, the zeroth-order asymptotic Hankel transform is then applied to the acoustic field at 50 Hz measured on the resulting synthetic aperture horizontal array created at each receiver depth. The resulting horizontal wave number spectra, which have peaks corresponding to the mode eigenvalues, are observed to have slightly different values at different receiver depths, and therefore, stochastic mode inversion is exploited to utilize all of the observed peak position information. The estimated sound-speed profile (SSP) foe the upper 10 m of sediment is then compared with an inversion result obtained using midfrequency (2-16 kHz) chirp sonar pulses reflected at normal incidence from the sediment. Although obtained using totally different inversion techniques, both estimated profiles are shown to be in good agreement in the top 10 m of sediment. The acoustic field simulated using the inverted SSP also agrees well with the measured acoustic field at each receiver depth. Furthermore, simulated sound fields which use this profile as input data are shown to be effective in predicting the measurements obtained at a different frequency (125 Hz) and for a different (cross-shelf) geometry.

AB Improvements in the capability of handling sloping interfaces and boundaries with the parabolic equation method have been an active area of research. Recent progress in accurately treating range-dependent seismoacoustic problems has involved coordinate transformation techniques. The variable-rotated parabolic equation is among recent advances in this area. The solution rotates the coordinate axes to achieve greater accuracy in the presence of range-dependent bathymetry. At points of slope change the rotated solution interpolates and extrapolates the field into adjacent regions. This approach is extended to solve problems involving variable topography (above-ocean-surface sediments) by accounting for the transition and boundary conditions at the water/solid/air interfaces. It is applied to range-dependent problems of sound transmission up a beach and through an island. The method is benchmarked for accuracy against a finite-element solution.

AB This communication presents a capacitive loading technique capable of providing significant size reduction in shorted annular ring antennas. Capacitive loading techniques are utilized in many antenna geometries to reduce the size of the radiator. Many such structures generate capacitance between parallel conducting planes. The new loading structure utilizes two separate microwave substrates. One substrate is contained beneath the radiator, and a high dielectric substrate is present between the parallel conductors to increase the capacitive effect. The new loading technique is verified with simulations and measurements with excellent agreement between the two.

AB CRCs have desirable properties for effective error detection. But their software implementation, which relies on many steps of the polynomial division, is typically slower than other codes such as weaker checksums. A relevant question is whether there are some particular CRCs that have fast implementation. In this paper, we introduce such fast CRCs as well as an effective technique to implement them. For these fast CRCs, even without using table lookup, it is possible either to eliminate or to greatly reduce many steps of the polynomial division during their computation.

AB We demonstrate that information can be transmitted and processed with pure spin currents in silicon. Fe/Al(2)O(3) tunnel barrier contacts are used to produce significant electron spin polarization in the silicon, generating a spin current which flows outside of the charge current path. The spin orientation of this pure spin current is controlled in one of three ways: 1) by switching the magnetization of the Fe contact; 2) by changing the polarity of the bias on the Fe/Al(2)O(3) "injector" contact, which enables the generation of either majority or minority spin populations in the Si, providing a way to electrically manipulate the injected spin orientation without changing the magnetization of the contact itself; and 3) by inducing spin precession through the application of a small perpendicular magnetic field. Spin polarization by electrical extraction is as effective as that achieved by the more common electrical spin injection. The output characteristics of a planar silicon three-terminal device are very similar to those of nonvolatile giant magnetoresistance metal spin-valve structures.

Since the pass/fail criteria of a UUT are contingent upon repeatable and reproducible accurate measurements, a methodology is presented to examine if there is a statistically significant difference between two functionally equivalent automatic measurement systems. The purpose of which is to reduce the technical risk of transportability issues that occur when a UUT is in transition from the legacy measurement system to an emerging measurement system.

AB We report 24-30 nm spherical barium ferrite (S-BaFe) particles having extremely narrow size distribution without any superparamagnetic phase. We have converted spherical magnetite (S-Mag) nanoparticles to S-BaFe nanoparticles using a unique adsorption-diffusion process. The synthesized S-BaFe nanoparticles were characterized by x-ray diffractometer, Mossbauer spectrometer, transmission electron microscope (TEM), and vibrating magnetometer (VSM) for magnetic and physical properties. Saturation magnetization and coercivity of the S-BaFe nanoparticles were found to be 41.4 emu/g and 4075 Oe, respectively. The thermal stability of K(u)V/k(B)T approximate to 107 was estimated for the S-BaFe nanoparticles from time-dependent remanent coercivity measurement.

AB Some common high strength steels possess enough magnetostriction to serve as the active material in sensors, e. g. torque sensors, while simultaneously performing their usual structural role. The magnetization and magnetostriction of six common high strength steels have been measured as a function of stress. Measurements were made in a hydraulic load frame at compressive stresses of -1, -50, -100, and -150 MPa with fields up to 135 kA/m (1700 Oe). With two exceptions, all of the samples displayed "normal" strain-field curves. The exceptions were Maraging 300 steel whose magnetostriction was continuing to increase with stress even at -150 MPa and an SAE 4130 steel that showed an "inverted V" shape. B - H curves of all of the samples showed some small dependencies on stress but were otherwise unremarkable. The saturation magnetostrictions (mu S = 1 x 10(-6)) and saturation magnetization (tesla) were: AerMet 100 [30 mu S, 1.68 T]; HP 9-4-20 [23 mu S, 1.68 T]; SAE 4130 [10 mu S, 1.81 T]; Maraging 300 [32 mu S (at - 150 MPa), 1.67 T]; SAE 4340 [5 mu S, 1.58 T]; SAE 9310 (heat treatment I) [10 mu S, 1.77 T]; and SAE 9310 (heat treatment II) [12 mu S, 1.82 T]. Details of the heat treatments are given.

AB An experimental and theoretical study was conducted on the generation of electromagnetic radiative noise produced by elastic wave vibrations in a steel pipe. Vibrations were introduced into the pipe, which in turn introduced current in a coil wrapped around the pipe inside a larger coil that produced a bias field. Based on the current developed by the vibrations, it was established, using modeling, that the predicted radiative noise agreed with the general range of radiative noise measured by others in similar situations where elastic vibrations were present, even in the presence of stress.

AB The origin of the induced magnetic anisotropy in stress-annealed single crystalline Fe80.5Ga19.5 was investigated by high energy X-ray diffuse scattering. A compressive stress was applied along [010] during annealing. Superlattice reflections associated with D0(3) chemical order were analyzed to clarify the origin of the stress-annealing-induced magnetic anisotropy. Results showed that the D0(3) precipitates in the microstructure exhibited long range ordering of Ga. These clusters were found not to have a crystallographic preference relative to the applied stress axis and no structural anisotropy could be detected. The results indicate that the induced anisotropy following stress annealing likely comes from the anisotropy of the magnetic domain alignment and is not related to the underlying microstructural features of the alloy.

AB Iron-Gallium alloys (Galfenol) possess a body centered cubic (BCC) alpha-Fe structure with the gallium atoms substituted throughout the lattice structure. Polycrystalline metals are often isotropic due to their overall random crystallographic orientation, however single crystal and strongly textured polycrystalline BCC metals exhibit a high degree of anisotropy in their physical characteristics. Galfenol has an anisotropic magnetostriction with the maximum performance achieved in the < 100 > direction. Previous field annealing experiments on polycrystalline Galfenol strips have shown a great disparity in the results. This paper uses EBSD to examine the influence of crystal orientation of grains on magnetostriction under various stresses to determine if the disparity is due to the number and/or orientation of the crystals comprising the strip. The saturation magnetostrictions and elastic moduli for each grain are predicted based on the crystal angle measured using EBSD, and the averaged maximum magnetostriction for each sample is calculated with the force balanced between each grain in a sample. The experimental saturation magnetostrictions at 700 Oe agree well with the calculated results. The highest built-in uniaxial anisotropy after magnetic annealing is about 1 kJ/m(3) and all the samples in this study showed performance improvement after field annealing.

AB Temperature dependent magnetoelastic properties of Fe100-xGex(5 < x < 18) single crystals have been measured. Tetragonal magnetostriction (3/2)lambda(100) measurements at x = 5.7, 12.1, 14.9, and 17.7 were performed between 78 K and 426 K and resonant ultrasound spectroscopy measurements were used to determine the shear elastic constant c' from 5 K to 300 K for x = 6.4, 7.2, 10.8, 14.6, 17.7, and 17.9. A clear distinction was observed between the temperature dependencies of lambda(100) for the A2 and D0(3) phases of Fe100-xGex. The elastic constant c' displays a monotonic decrease with concentration through the different phases (6 < x < 18) and at all temperatures. Experimental values of the tetragonal magnetoelastic coupling constant -b(1) at 81 K were remarkably consistent with theoretical values determined by density functional calculations at 0 K.

AB In the analysis of data from nonlinear systems both the bispectrum and the bicoherence have emerged as useful tools. Both are frequently used to detect the influence of a nonlinear system on the joint probability distribution of the system input. Previous work has provided an analytical expression for the bispectrum of a quadratically nonlinear system output if the input is stationary, jointly Gaussian distributed. This work significantly generalizes the previous analysis by providing an analytical expression for the bispectrum of the response of quadratically nonlinear systems subject to stationary, jointly non-Gaussian inputs possessing arbitrary auto-correlation function. The expression is then used to determine the optimal input probability density function for detecting a quadratic nonlinearity in a second-order system. It is also shown how the expression can be used to design an optimal nonlinear filter for detecting deviations from normality in the probability density of a signal.

AB A software-defined radio (SDR) for ultrawideband (UWB) communication systems places several stringent requirements on the analog-to-digital converter (ADC). One alternative to using a single ADC is to sample the received signal with an array of lower speed ADCs that were driven by interleaved sampling clocks; however, mismatches among the ADCs will result in signal distortion. This paper makes three important contributions to overcoming this problem: 1) analytical quantification of the impact of ADC gain, offset, and timing mismatches on the performance of a time-interleaved sampling ADC array for UWB signals; 2) demonstration of the efficacy of using a pilot-based matched-filter architecture to mitigate the impact of timing mismatches in the presence of multipath; and 3) implementation of an 8-ADC time-interleaved UWB SDR testbed that operates at an effective sampling frequency of 6.4 GHz. In addition, our findings allow for the design specification of the number of pilots required to obtain a desired system performance. The simulation and measured performance results from this paper demonstrate that ADC mismatches can be controlled to within +/-10%, yielding acceptable levels of distortion and bit-error-rate (BER) performance on the UWB SDR testbed. Both analytical and simulation results also demonstrate the efficacy of a pilot-based matched filter in mitigating the impact of timing mismatch errors, even in the presence of multipath.

AB Inhibitory antibodies specific for the 19-kDa fragment of merozoite surface protein 1 (MSP1(19)) are a significant component of inhibitory responses in individuals immune to malaria. Nevertheless, conflicting results have been obtained in determining whether this antibody specificity correlates with protection in residents of areas where malaria is endemic. In this study, we examined sera collected from a population of semi-immune individuals living in an area of Vietnam with meso-endemicity during a 6-month period. We used two Plasmodium falciparum parasite lines that express either endogenous MSP1(19) or the homologous region from Plasmodium yoelii to measure the MSP1(19)-specific inhibitory activity. We showed that (i) the level of MSP1(19)-specific inhibitory antibodies was not associated with a delay in P. falciparum infection, (ii) MSP1(19)-specific inhibitory antibodies declined significantly during the convalescent period after infection, and (iii) there was no significant correlation between the MSP1(19)-specific inhibitory antibodies and the total antibodies measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. These results have implications for understanding naturally acquired immunity to malaria and for the development and evaluation of MSP1(19)-based vaccines.

AB The fatigue life of metallic aircraft structural components can be significantly reduced by environmentally induced corrosion. As part of a NAVAIR High Strength Steel Corrosion-Fatigue Assessment Program, methods were studied to predict the impact that corrosion-induced surface roughness has on the fatigue life of high-strength steel aircraft components. In order to adequately capture the corrosion damage features that cause fatigue cracking, a representative set of well-characterized corrosion-fatigue test results were generated to be used for model development. The test specimens fabricated for this program consisted of bare, unnotched AF1410 steel flat plates with a 25.4 mm diameter corrosion patch on one side. Two sets of test specimens were fabricated and tested, with one set abrasive blasted after heat treatment, and the other set hand polished after heat treatment. A method of growing corrosion in the laboratory was developed that consisted of filter paper soaked in a 3.5% NaCl solution and placed at the center of the test plate gage section, with a voltage applied across the filter paper to accelerate corrosion growth. High-resolution 3D surface topography data was collected from the corroded region on each test plate prior to fatigue testing using a commercial white-light interference microscope. Constant-amplitude fatigue tests were performed on corroded and uncorroded test plates at several different stress levels, for three different corrosion exposure levels. Post-test fractographic analysis of the corroded specimens indicate that all of the critical cracks originated from small corrosion notches on the order of 10-200 mu m in width, 10-120 mu m in height and 2-100 mu m in depth. These notches were not considered to be pits in that the depth dimension was less than the surface dimensions. The repeatability of the fatigue initiating mechanism for corrosion damaged surfaces in this material indicates that it should be possible to develop a single modeling approach that reasonably captures the effects of corrosion notches in reducing fatigue life.

Probabilistic analysis
AB The fatigue life of metallic aircraft structural components can be significantly reduced by environmentally induced corrosion. However, there have historically been no analytical methods to quantify the specific fatigue life reduction of individual unfailed corroded components with any reasonable degree of confidence. As part of a NAVAIR high-strength steel corrosion-fatigue assessment program, methods were studied to predict the impact that corrosion-induced surface roughness has on the fatigue life of high-strength steel aircraft components. The steels of interest produce general corrosion in patches as well as localized material loss similar to pitting. In addition, this type of corrosion has characteristic features over a wide range of scales. Consequently, traditional finite element analysis approaches are not well suited to this problem, since the mesh required to accurately reflect the fine details distributed over the entire corrosion patch make computation unrealistic. Therefore, approximate methods were developed that allow localized regions of interest of high stress to be identified. Subsequently, a simple notch metric formula is employed to approximate the stress riser in these regions of interest. Finally, an extension of Peterson's fatigue notch sensitivity theory is applied to these small "notches" that has the result of suppressing the effect of smaller notches compared to larger notches in the prediction of life. Each region of interest is assigned a probability of crack initiation as a function of fatigue cycles, based on a probabilistic strain-life analysis using the predicted notch factor. The net life (to crack initiation) for the component is then the product of the survivabilities of all of the individual regions of interest on the component surface. Tests on corroded fatigue specimens have been conducted to both calibrate the parameters in the Peterson model as well as to test the life prediction capability of the approach. Predictions from the resulting model have demonstrated that an empirical approach to corrosion surface damage can be utilized to generate probabilistic life predictions that have substantial engineering value in assessing the residual fatigue life of corroded AF1410 steel components, and that the modeling technique can capture the significant corrosion features that cause fatigue cracking in most cases, especially for more severely corroded surfaces.

AB Four samples of 1 wt% multi-walled carbon nanotube-based (MWCNT) aqueous nanofluids prepared via ultrasonication were thermally characterized. Direct imaging was done using a newly developed wet-TEM technique to assess the dispersion state of carbon nanotubes (CNT) in suspension. The effect of dispersing energy (ultrasonication) on viscosity, thermal conductivity, and the laminar convective heat transfer was studied. Results indicate that thermal conductivity and heat transfer enhancement increased until an optimum ultrasonication time was reached, and decreased on further ultrasonication. The suspensions exhibited a shear thinning behavior, which followed the Power Law viscosity model. The maximum enhancements in thermal conductivity and convective heat transfer were found to be 20% and 32%, respectively. The thermal conductivity enhancement increased considerably at temperatures greater than 24 degrees C. The enhancement in convective heat transfer was found to increase with axial distance. A number of mechanisms related to boundary layer thickness, micro-convective effect, particle rearrangement, possible induced convective effects due to temperature and viscosity variations in the radial direction, and the non-Newtonian nature of the samples are discussed.

Echo Sounder
SO JOURNAL OF ATMOSPHERIC AND OCEANIC TECHNOLOGY
LA English

ID SEA-SURFACE; AMBIENT NOISE; OCEAN; SCATTERING; RANGE; FLUCTUATIONS
AB The performance of pressure sensor-equipped inverted echo sounders for monitoring nonlinear internal waves is examined. The inverted echo sounder measures the round-trip acoustic travel time from the sea floor to the sea surface and thus acquires vertically integrated information on the thermal structure, from which the first baroclinic mode of thermocline motion may be inferred. This application of the technology differs from previous uses in that the wave period (similar to 30 min) is short, requiring a more rapid transmission rate and a different approach to the analysis. Sources of error affecting instrument performance include tidal effects, barotropic adjustment to internal waves, ambient acoustic noise, and sea surface roughness. The latter two effects are explored with a simulation that includes surface wave reconstruction, acoustic scattering based on the Kirchhoff approximation, wind-generated noise, sound propagation, and the instrument's signal processing circuitry. Bias is introduced as a function of wind speed, but the simulation provides a basis for bias correction.
The assumption that the waves do not significantly affect the mean stratification allows for a focus on the dynamic response. Model calculations are compared with observations in the South China Sea by using nearby temperature measurements to provide a test of instrument performance. After applying corrections for ambient noise and surface roughness effects, the inverted echo sounder exhibits an RMS variability of approximately 4 m in the estimated depth of the eigenfunction maximum in the wind speed range 0 <= U(10) <= 10 m s(-1). This uncertainty may be compared with isopycnal excursions for nonlinear internal waves of 100 m, showing that the observational approach is effective for measurements of nonlinear internal waves in this environment.

AB PURPOSE: To develop a generalized method to determine an optimum set of intraocular lens (IOL) powers for humanitarian missions.
SETTING: Humanitarian missions to Central America, South America, and Southeast Asia.
METHODS: Biometric data of adults who had cataract surgery on 2 humanitarian missions were reviewed, and the ideal emmetropic IOL power for each eye was calculated. Using statistical modeling, the number of extra IOLs required at each power to account for natural variation inherent in random population samples was calculated. To limit the total number of IOLs and maximize availability of suitable IOLs for each patient, a tolerance strategy for choosing IOL powers was developed and the ideal proportion of extra IOLs required at each power was empirically determined.
RESULTS: Data of 103 patients were reviewed. The mean IOL power was 20.38 diopters (D) +/- 2.32 (SD). Applying a tolerance strategy to accept IOLs with powers 0.5 D below or 1.0 D above the emmetropic IOL power, the number of extra IOLs required at each power was decreased to a fraction of the fourth root of the number of eyes anticipated to require that IOL power. The model predicted that with this strategy, fewer than 2% of all patients would be rejected due to lack of an IOL with a suitable power.
CONCLUSIONS: The spreadsheet-based IOL power prediction model calculated an ideal distribution of IOLs to order for humanitarian cataract surgery. It is generalizable to missions of any size and should help planners minimize costs while ensuring excellent refractive outcomes.

AB Persistent stratus/stratocumulus cloud decks in the southeast Pacific near the coasts of Peru and northern Chile play an important role in regional and global climate variability. Interannual variability of the upper ocean under stratus cloud decks in the southeast Pacific is investigated using ocean general circulation model (OGCM) experiments. The model was first forced with daily surface fluxes based on the NCEP-NCAR reanalysis and satellite-derived surface shortwave and longwave radiation for the period of 1979-2004. Gridded surface heat flux estimates used in the model integration agree well with those based on Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) Improved Meteorology (IMET) buoy measurements at 20 degrees S, 85 degrees W. Also, the OGCM is able to reproduce well the observed interannual SST and sea surface height variations in this region. The results suggest that the interannual variation of the upper ocean north of 20 degrees S is mostly associated with ENSO variability. Additional model experiments were conducted to examine the relative importance of ocean dynamics and surface heat fluxes in determining the interannual variation in SST. The results of these experiments indicate that upper-ocean dynamics play a dominant role in controlling the interannual variation of SST north of 20 degrees S in the stratus cloud region. The upper-ocean heat budget analysis shows that meridional heat advection associated with ENSO events primarily controls the interannual SST variation in the stratus cloud region north of 20 degrees S.

AB The highest frequency of late-winter cold-air outbreaks in East and Southeast Asia over 50 years was recorded in 2005, when three strong successive cold surges occurred in the South China Sea within a span of 30 days from mid-February to mid-March. These events also coincided with the first break of 18 consecutive warm winters over China. The strong pulsation of the surface Siberian Mongolia high (SMH) that triggered these events was found to result from the confluence of several events. To the east, a strong Pacific blocking with three pulses of westward extension intensified the stationary East Asian major trough to create a favorable condition for cold-air outbreaks. To the west, the dominance of the Atlantic blocking and an anomalous deepened trough in the Scandinavian/Barents Sea region provided the source of a succession of Rossby wave activity fluxes for the downstream development. An upper-level central Asian anticyclone that is often associated with a stronger SMH was anomalously strong and provided additional forcing. In terms of the persistence and strength, this central Asian anticyclone was correlated with the Arctic Oscillation (AO) and North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) only when SMH is weak (warm winters). During strong SMH seasons (cold winters) the correlation vanishes. However, during late winter 2005 the central Asian anticyclone was strengthened by the Atlantic blocking through both the downstream wave activities and a circulation change that affected the Atlantic and west Asian jets. As a result, the period from mid-February to mid-March of 2005 stands out as a record-breaking period in the Asian winter monsoon.

AB Tubeless percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) is a viable option for selected patients, particularly those with solitary calculi, multiple stones located in a single location, or those that can be accessed using one access tract. Benefits over the standard PCNL include reduced hospital stay, decreased pain, and decreased urine leak from the access site that would typically occur from around the nephrostomy tube. Hemostatic agents in the form of fibrin "glue'' or gelatin matrix substances have been demonstrated to be safe and effective to augment the tubeless procedure. The most appropriate sealant agent available is yet to be determined. We present a review of the contemporary literature on the use of hemostatic agents for tubeless PCNL.

AB Measurements of turbulence were performed in four frontal locations near the mouths of Block Island Sound (BIS) and Long Island Sound (LIS). These measurements extend from the offshore front associated with BIS and Mid-Atlantic Bight Shelf water, to the onshore fronts near the Montauk Point (MK) headland, and the Connecticut River plume front. The latter feature is closely associated with the major fresh water input to LIS. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) dissipation rate, epsilon, was obtained using shear probes mounted on an autonomous underwater vehicle. Offshore, the BIS estuarine outflow front showed, during spring season and ebb tide, maximum TKE dissipation rate, epsilon, estimates of order 10(-5) W/kg, with background values of order 10(-6) to 10(-9) W/kg. Edwards et al. [Edwards, C.A., Fake, T.A., and Bogden, P.S., 2004a. Spring-summer frontogenesis at the mouth of Block Island Sound: 1. A numerical investigation into tidal and buoyancy-forced motion. Journal of Geophysical Research 109 (C12021), doi:10.1029/2003JC002132.] model this front as the boundary of a tidally driven, baroclinically adjusted BIS flow around the MK headland eddy. At the entrance to BIS, near MK, two additional fronts are observed, one of which was over sand waves. For the headland site front east of MK, without sand waves, during ebb tide, e estimates of 10(-5) to 10(-6) W/kg were observed. The model shows that this front is at the northern end of an anti-cyclonic headland eddy, and within a region of strong tidal mixing. For the headland site front further northeast over sand waves, maximum c estimates were of order 10(-4) W/kg within a background of order 10(-7)-10(-6) W/kg. From the model, this front is at the northeastern edge of the anti-cyclonic headland eddy and within the tidal mixing zone. For the Connecticut River plume front, a surface trapped plume, during ebb tide, maximum epsilon estimates of 10(-5) W/kg were obtained, within a background of 10(-6) to 10(-8) W/kg. Of all four fronts, the river plume front has the largest finescale meansquare shear, S(2)similar to 0.15 s(-2). All of the frontal locations had local values of the buoyancy Reynolds number indicating strong isotropic turbulence at the dissipation scales. Local values of the Froude number indicated shear instability in all of the fronts. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Recovery of slow potentials in AC-coupled electrocorticography: application to spreading depolarizations in rat and human cerebral cortex. J Neurophysiol 102: 2563-2575, 2009. First published June 3, 2009; doi:10.1152/jn.00345.2009. Cortical spreading depolarizations ( spreading depressions and peri-infarct depolarizations) are a pathology intrinsic to acute brain injury, generating large negative extracellular slow potential changes (SPCs) that, lasting on the order of minutes, are studied with DC-coupled recordings in animals. The spreading SPCs of depolarization waves are observed in human cortex with AC-coupled electrocorticography (ECoG), although SPC morphology is distorted by the high-pass filter stage of the amplifiers. Here, we present a signal processing method to reverse these distortions and recover approximate full-band waveforms from AC-coupled recordings. We constructed digital filters that reproduced the phase and amplitude distortions introduced by specific AC-coupled amplifiers and, based on this characterization, derived digital inverse filters to remove these distortions from ECoG recordings. Performance of the inverse filter was validated by its ability to recover both simulated and real low-frequency input test signals. The inverse filter was then applied to AC-coupled ECoG recordings from five patients who underwent invasive monitoring after aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage. For 117 SPCs, the inverse filter recovered full-band waveforms with morphologic characteristics typical of the negative DC shifts recorded in animals. Compared with those recorded in the rat cortex with the same analog and digital methods, the negative DC shifts of human depolarizations had significantly greater durations (1:47 vs. 0:45 min:sec) and peak-to-peak amplitudes (10.1 vs. 4.2 mV). The inverse filter thus permits the study of spreading depolarizations in humans, using the same assessment of full-band DC potentials as that in animals, and suggests a particular solution for recovery of biosignals recorded with frequency-limited amplifiers.

AB Objective: To describe current and future career-span health research in the US Department of Defense Millennium Cohort Study. Methods: Collaborating with all military service branches and the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Millennium Cohort Study launched in 2001, before September 11 and the start of deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq, to conduct coordinated strategic research to determine an effects of military occupational and deployment-related exposures, on long-term health. Results: More than 150,000 consenting members represent demographic, occupational, military, and health characteristics of the US military. More than 70% of the first two panels have submitted follow-up questionnaires and >50% have deployed since 2001. Conclusions: Prospective cohort data have identified subgroups of military populations at higher risk or more resilient to decrements in mental and physical health. Continued career span and beyond follow-up will answer long-term health questions related to military service. (J Occup Environ Med. 2009;51:1193-1201)

AB The Naval Research Laboratory's Trace Element AMS system's use of a Pretzel magnet as a recombinator and mass filter offers a unique opportunity to study a new type of time-of-flight (TOF) spectrometry. Mass filtering prior to TOF analysis removes extraneous species, shortening the analysis time for a single beam pulse, thereby improving the duty cycle. Time dilation results from a longer flight path for a heavier mass in the Pretzel magnet. Computer TOF simulations of these factors and the resulting impact on mass resolution for high mass atomic and molecular species are discussed. Initial measurements of carbon and silicon to confirm the validity of the model are presented.

AB The ultrasonic attenuation coefficient in mammalian tissue is approximated by a frequency-dependent power law for frequencies less than 100 MHz. To describe this power law behavior in soft tissue, a hierarchical fractal network model is proposed. The viscoelastic and self-similar properties of tissue are captured by a constitutive equation based on a lumped parameter infinite-ladder topology involving alternating springs and dashpots. In the low-frequency limit, this ladder network yields a stress-strain constitutive equation with a time-fractional derivative. By combining this constitutive equation with linearized conservation principles and an adiabatic equation of state, a fractional partial differential equation that describes power law attenuation is derived. The resulting attenuation coefficient is a power law with exponent ranging between 1 and 2, while the phase velocity is in agreement with the Kramers-Kronig relations. The fractal ladder model is compared to published attenuation coefficient data, thus providing equivalent lumped parameters. (C) 2009 Acoustical Society of America. [DOI: 10.1121/1.3204304]

AB We describe a novel class of light-triggerable liposomes prepared from a photo-polymerizable phospholipid DC(8,9)PC (1,2-bis (tricosa-10,12-diynoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) and DPPC (1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-Glycero-3-Phosphocholine). Exposure to UV (254 nm) radiation for 0-45 min at 25 A degrees C resulted in photo-polymerization of DC(8,9)PC in these liposomes and the release of an encapsulated fluorescent dye (calcein). Kinetics and extents of calcein release correlated with mol% of DC(8,9)PC in the liposomes. Photopolymerization and calcein release occurred only from DPPC/DC(8,9)PC but not from Egg PC/DC(8,9)PC liposomes. Our data indicate that phase separation and packing of polymerizable lipids in the liposome bilayer are major determinants of photo-activation and triggered contents release.

AB Introduction: Human lyophilized platelets hold promise as a novel hemostatic infusion agent for the control of traumatic hemorrhage. Rehydrated, lyophilized platelets (Stasix) were investigated as an infusible hemostatic agent in experimental non-compressible hemorrhage, using a porcine liver injury model. Methods: Yorkshire swine underwent a grade III liver injury and uncontrolled bleeding. After 15 min, animals were infused with Stasix (n = 10) or normal saline vehicle (n = 10). At 2 h, the liver was repaired, and the animals were monitored for another4 h. Resuscitation, including blood transfusion, was administered during the hospital phase. Laboratory data, including arterial blood gas, complete blood count, thromboelastography (TEG), and coagulation parameters, were collected. All animals underwent necropsy with complete histopathologic examination. Results: Overall survival in the Stasix group [8/10 (80%)] was significantly higher than in the control group [2/10 (20%)] (P = 0.023). Mean total blood loss index (g kg-1) was lower in Stasix-treated animals (22.2 +/- 3.5) than in control animals (34.7 +/- 3.4) (P = 0.019). Hemodynamic parameters were improved in the Stasix group, and a trend towards higher hemoglobin and lower lactate was observed. Coagulation and TEG parameters were not different between the groups. One surviving animal in the Stasix group had evidence of thrombi on necropsy. Conclusions: This is the first reported study to evaluate rehydrated, lyophilized platelets as an infusible hemostatic agent for non-compressible hemorrhage. Stasix improved survival and reduced blood loss in a liver injury porcine model. However, evidence of thrombotic complications warrants further investigation prior to human use in the setting of traumatic hemorrhage.

AB In this note we present exact solutions of two initial-boundary value problems (IBVP)s in the setting of a recently-introduced theory of heat conduction, wherein the two temperature theory of the late 1960s is merged with Tzou's dual-phase-lag flux relation. First, we solve a one-dimensional problem on a finite interval for a simple, parabolic initial condition. We then describe how to extend the analysis to the general three-dimensional case. In particular, it is demonstrated that the instability which generally arises in connection with the dual-phase-lag model can be avoided under this hybrid formulation. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB A hybrid analysis scheme is compared with an ensemble square root filter (EnSRF) analysis scheme in the presence of model errors as a follow-up to a previous perfect-model comparison. In the hybrid scheme, the ensemble perturbations are updated by the ensemble transform Kalman filter (ETKF) and the ensemble mean is updated with a hybrid ensemble and static background-error covariance. The experiments were conducted with a two-layer primitive equation model. The true state was a T127 simulation. Data assimilation experiments were conducted at T31 resolution (3168 complex spectral coefficients), assimilating imperfect observations drawn from the T127 nature run. By design, the magnitude of the truncation error was large, which provided a test on the ability of both schemes to deal with model error. Additive noise was used to parameterize model errors in the background ensemble for both schemes. In the first set of experiments, additive noise was drawn from a large inventory of historical forecast errors; in the second set of experiments, additive noise was drawn from a large inventory of differences between forecasts and analyses. The static covariance was computed correspondingly from the two inventories. The hybrid analysis was statistically significantly more accurate than the EnSRF analysis. The improvement of the hybrid over the EnSRF was smaller when differences of forecasts and analyses were used to form the random noise and the static covariance. The EnSRF analysis was more sensitive to the size of the ensemble than the hybrid. Aseries of tests was conducted to understand why the EnSRF performed worse than the hybrid. It was shown that the inferior performance of the EnSRF was likely due to the sampling error in the estimation of the model-error covariance in the mean update and the less-balanced EnSRF initial conditions resulting from the extra localizations used in the EnSRF.

AB Operational cloud forecasts generated by the Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS)(1) were verified over the eastern Pacific Ocean. The study focused on the accuracy of cloud forecasts associated with extratropical cyclone and convective activity during the late winter and spring of 2007. The condensed total water (liquid and solid) path was used as a proxy for cloud cover to compare the forecasts with retrievals from the Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites (GOES). Analyses of the GOES retrievals indicate that deep cloud systems were generally well represented during daylight hours. Thus, the bulk of the verification focused on the general aspects of quality and timing of these deep systems. Multiple statistics were collected, ranging from simple correlations and histograms to more sophisticated fuzzy and composite statistics. The results show that synoptic-scale systems were generally well predicted to at least two days, with the primary error being an overestimation of deep cloud occurrence. Smaller subsynoptic-scale systems were subject to spatial and timing biases in that a number of the forecasts were lagged by 3-6 h. Despite the bias, 60%-70% of the forecasts of the mesoscale phenomena displayed useful skill.

AB We describe the design and implementation of a long-wave infrared (LWIR) spectrometer based on the spatial heterodyne spectroscopy (SHS) technique, and present the first measurements of broadband LWIR spectra taken with an SHS instrument. This work represents the first successful application of SHS to the field of LWIR spectroscopy, which is currently dominated by Fourier transform spectrometers, grating spectrometers, and Fabry-Perot interferometers. A unique combination of properties makes SHS a valuable addition to the existing types of LWIR spectrometers. Most notable are the interferometric throughput (no slit), lack of moving parts, and that the measured spectra are not contaminated by a changing scene, which makes SHS particularly suitable for applications in rugged environments and on moving platforms. The instrument discussed here is called the Spatial Heterodyne Imager for Chemicals and Atmospheric Detection (SHIMCAD), and is designed to cover the wavelength range between about 8.4 mu m (1190 cm(-1)) and 11.2 mu m (890 cm(-1)) with a spectral resolution of about 4 cm(-1). First, laboratory SHS transmission spectra of methanol and polyimide (Kapton(R)) are presented. The instrument is built to be mobile, so that ultimately field measurements can be conducted.

AB The identity and characteristics of the lifetime limiting defects in n-type 4H-SiC epitaxial layers are of particular current interest, due to the suitability of this material for high-power, solid-state switching devices. Much work has been done in the past decade to identify the spectral signature and the local atomic structure of the defect that controls the life-time in this material. Until recently, it was concluded that two dominant electron traps, Z(1/2) and EH(6/7), both associated with a carbon vacancy, were controlling the lifetime. DLTS and optical studies show, however, that EH(6/7) is not an important minority carrier trap, due to its small capture cross section for holes. Thus, Z(1/2) acts alone as the lifetime limiting defect. The details of recombination at this trap have been studied through the injection level and temperature dependence of the carrier lifetime and through carrier dynamics simulations that take into account the complex nature of the defect. The simulations shed light on the processes that dominate the recombination at Z1/2 over a large range of injection level and temperature. (C) 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim

SURFACE-STRUCTURE; SI(111) SURFACE; SILICON 111; AU; GOLD;
PHOTOEMISSION; SPECTROSCOPY
AB We propose a structural model for the Si(111)-(5X2)-Au reconstruction. The model incorporates a revised experimental value of 0.6 monolayer for the coverage of gold atoms, equivalent to six gold atoms per 5 X 2 cell. Five main theoretical results, obtained from first-principles total-energy calculations, support the model. (1) In the presence of silicon adatoms the periodicity of the gold rows spontaneously doubles, in agreement with experiment. (2) The dependence of the surface energy on the adatom coverage indicates that a uniformly covered phase is unstable and will phase separate into empty and covered regions, as observed experimentally. (3) Theoretical scanning tunneling microscopy images are in excellent agreement with experiment. (4) The calculated band structure is consistent with angle-resolved photoemission spectra; analysis of their correspondence allows the straightforward assignment of observed surface states to specific atoms. (5) The calculated activation barrier for diffusion of silicon adatoms along the row direction is in excellent agreement with the experimentally measured barrier.

TI Roles of multiband effects and electron-hole asymmetry in the
superconductivity and normal-state properties of Ba(Fe(1-x)Cox)(2)As-2
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
AB We report a systematic investigation, together with a theoretical analysis, of the resistivity and Hall effect in single crystals of Ba(Fe1-xCox)(2)As-2 over a wide doping range. We find a surprisingly great disparity between the relaxation rates of the holes and the electrons in excess of one order of magnitude in the low-doping, low-temperature regime. The ratio of the electron to hole mobilities diminishes with temperature and doping (away from the magnetically ordered state) and becomes more conventional. We also find a straightforward explanation of the large asymmetry (compared to cuprates) of the superconducting dome: in the underdoped regime the decisive factor is the competition between antiferromagnetism and superconductivity, while in the overdoped regime the main role is played by degradation of the nesting that weakens the pairing interaction. Our results indicate that spin fluctuations due to interband electron-hole scattering play a crucial role not only in the superconducting pairing but also in the normal transport.

ID ELECTRON-SPIN; SPECTROSCOPY; MANIPULATION
AB The energy spectrum of an electron confined in a quantum dot (QD) with a three-dimensional anisotropic parabolic potential in a tilted magnetic field was found analytically. The theory describes exactly the mixing of in-plane and out-of-plane motions of an electron caused by a tilted magnetic field, which could be seen, for example, in the level anticrossing. For charged QDs in a tilted magnetic field we predict three strong resonant lines in the far-infrared-absorption spectra.

AB A long-standing question is why Poisson's ratio v nearly always exceeds 0.2 for isotropic materials, whereas classical elasticity predicts v to be between -1 to 1/2. We show that the roots of quadratic relations from classical elasticity divide v into three possible ranges: -1= 0, 0 <= v <= 1/5, and 1/5 <= v<1/2. Since elastic properties are unique there can be only one valid set of roots, which must be 1/5 <= v<1/2 for consistency with the behavior of real materials. Materials with Poisson's ratio outside of this range are rare, and tend to be either very hard (e.g., diamond, beryllium etc.) or porous (e.g., auxetic foams); such substances have more complex behavior than can be described by classical elasticity. Thus, classical elasticity is inapplicable whenever v<1/5, and the use of the equations from classical elasticity for such materials is inappropriate.

AB The results of midrapidity (0 < y < 0.8) neutral pion spectra over an extended transverse momentum range (1 < p(T) < 12 GeV/c) in root s(NN) = 200 GeV Au + Au collisions, measured by the STAR experiment, are presented. The neutral pions are reconstructed from photons measured either by the STAR Barrel Electro-Magnetic Calorimeter or by the Time Projection Chamber via tracking of conversion electron-positron pairs. Our measurements are compared to previously published pi(+/-) and pi(0) results. The nuclear modification factors R-CP and R-AA of pi(0) are also presented as a function of p(T). In the most central Au + Au collisions, the binary collision scaled pi(0) yield at high p(T) is suppressed by a factor of about 5 compared to the expectation from the yield of p + p collisions. Such a large suppression is in agreement with previous observations for light quark mesons and is consistent with the scenario that partons suffer considerable energy loss in the dense medium formed in central nucleus-nucleus collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.

AB The STAR Collaboration at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider presents measurements of J/psi e(+) e(-) at midrapidity and high transverse momentum (pT > 5 GeV/c) in p + p and central Cu + Cu collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV. The inclusive J/psi production cross section for Cu + Cu collisions is found to be consistent at high p(T) with the binary collision-scaled cross section for p + p collisions. At a confidence level of 97%, this is in contrast to a suppression of J/psi production observed at lower p(T). Azimuthal correlations of J/psi with charged hadrons in p + p collisions provide an estimate of the contribution of B-hadron decays to J/psi production of 13% +/- 5%.

TI Wobbling mode in Ta-167
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C
LA English
DT Article
ID COINCIDENCE DATA; EXCITATIONS; NUCLEI
AB The collective wobbling mode, the strongest signature for the rotation of a triaxial nucleus, has previously been seen only in a few Lu isotopes in spite of extensive searches in nearby isotopes. A sequence of transitions in the N = 94 Ta-167 nucleus exhibiting features similar to those attributed to the wobbling bands in the Lu nuclei has now been found. This band feeds into the pi i(13/2) band at a relative energy similar to that seen in the established wobbling bands and its dynamic moment of inertia and alignment properties are nearly identical to the i(13/2) structure over a significant frequency range. Given these characteristics, it is likely that the wobbling mode has been observed for the first time in a nucleus other than Lu, making this collective motion a more general phenomenon.

AB A resonantly enhanced photon-regeneration experiment to search for the axion or axionlike particles is described. This experiment is a shining light through walls study, where photons traveling through a strong magnetic field are (in part) converted to axions; the axions can pass through an opaque wall and convert (in part) back to photons in a second region of strong magnetic field. The photon regeneration is enhanced by employing matched Fabry- Perot optical cavities, with one cavity within the axion generation magnet and the second within the photon- regeneration magnet. Compared to simple single- pass photon regeneration, this technique would result in a gain of (F/pi)(2), where F is the finesse of each cavity. This gain could feasibly be as high as 1010, corresponding to an improvement in the sensitivity to the axionphoton coupling, g(a gamma gamma), of order (F/pi)(1/2)similar to 300. This improvement would enable, for the first time, a purely laboratory experiment to probe axion-photon couplings at a level competitive with, or superior to, limits from stellar evolution or solar axion searches. This report gives a detailed discussion of the scheme for actively controlling the two Fabry- Perot cavities and the laser frequencies, and describes the heterodyne signal detection system, with limits ultimately imposed by shot noise.

AB An important and oft-utilised viscoelastic property of polymers is their conformance to the time temperature superposition principle. However, it is well established that in the glass transition zone, where both the local segmental and global chain modes contribute to the response, polymers are thermorheologically complex. Extrapolations of mechanical and other properties through the glass transition zone thus entail large errors. An alternative procedure that accounts for the pressure and volume dependences is based on the empirical fact that both local segmental and global relaxation times of polymers are a function of the product variable, TV c, where T is temperature, V is specific volume, and c is a material constant. The utility of this scaling property is described.

AB Generally, the useful life of a rubber component is governed by its susceptibility to failure by either mechanical or chemical deterioration. There are well established laboratory tests to address the failure properties of elastomers - fracture mechanics analyses for mechanical durability and accelerated aging tests for chemical degradation. However, laboratory predictions are reliable only to the extent that the relevant failure mechanisms are identified and all contributing factors are accounted for. This paper describes two case studies, one concerning fatigue failure of an elastomeric mechanical capacitor and the other thermal oxidation of a radiant heating hose. Ironically only the latter case, in which redundant laboratory testing provided accurate lifetime predictions, involved product failure with consequent extraordinary financial losses.

AB In this paper we seek and obtain a basic understanding of tropical cyclone intensification in three dimensions when precipitation and evaporative-cooling (warm rain) processes are included. Intensification with warm rain physics included is found to be dominated by highly localized deep convective structures possessing strong cyclonic vorticity in their cores - dubbed 'Vortical Hot Towers' (VHTs). Unlike previous studies, the findings herein suggest all intensification pathway that is distinct from the 'evaporation-wind' feedback mechanism known as wind-induced surface heat exchange (WISHE), which requires a positive feedback between the azimuthal-mean boundary-layer equivalent potential temperature and the azimuthal-mean surface wind speed underneath the eyewall of the storm. Intensification from a finite-amplitude initial vortex is shown to not require this evaporation-wind feedback process. Indeed, when the Surface wind speed in the sea-to-air vapour fluxes is capped at a nominal (trade-wind) Value, the vortex still intensifies by the same pathway identified in the main experiments via the generation of locally buoyant VHTs and the near-surface convergence that the VHTs induce within the boundary layer.
The present findings and interpretations challenge the prevailing view that tropical cyclones are premier examples of vortical systems arising from WISHE. Given the potential significance oil Our understanding of the dynamics of hurricanes, and given the limitations of the present modelling framework, further tests of these predictions are advocated.

AB We investigate the extent to which the azimuthally-averaged fields from a three-dimensional, non-hydrostatic, tropical cyclone model can be captured by axisymmetric balance theory. The secondary (overturning) circulation and balanced tendency for the primary circulation are obtained by solving a general form of the Sawyer-Eliassen equation with the diabatic heating, eddy heat fluxes and tangential momentum sources (eddy momentum fluxes, boundary-layer friction and subgrid-scale diffusion) diagnosed from the model. The Occurrence of regions of weak symmetric instability at low levels and in the Upper-tropospheric outflow layer requires a regularization procedure so that the Sawyer-Eliassen equation remains elliptic. The balanced calculations presented capture a major fraction of the azimuthally-averaged secondary circulation of the three-dimensional simulation except in the boundary layer, where the balanced assumption breaks down and where there is an inward agradient force. In particular, the balance theory is shown to significantly underestimate the low-level radial inflow and therefore the maximum azimuthal-mean tangential wind tendency. In the balance theory, the diabatic forcing associated with the eyewall convection accounts for a large fraction of the secondary circulation. The findings herein underscore both the utility of axisymmetric balance theory and also its limitations in describing the axisymmetric intensification physics of a tropical cyclone vortex.

AB Iron-gallium (Galfenol) is a promising transducer material that combines high magnetostriction, desirable mechanical properties and a high permeability. The high permeability of this material causes a relatively low cutoff frequency in dynamic applications, above which eddy currents form and introduce significant power losses. To reduce the eddy current losses, magnetostrictive drivers are commonly laminated. A second transducer design consideration is the introduction of an initial alignment of domains inside of the material to maximize the magnetostriction performance without a prestress mechanism. Built-in uniaxial magnetic anisotropy through stress annealing aligns magnetic moments perpendicular to the direction of actuation. Stress annealing is a high temperature process with simultaneous application of an external load and subsequent cooling under load in which the magnetic moment alignment developed at temperature is retained. The external load needed to build in a useful uniaxial magnetic anisotropy in Galfenol is greater than the buckling load for Galfenol laminae sized for use in high frequency dynamic applications. In this study, stress annealing of highly textured polycrystalline Galfenol is successfully extended to thin laminae by introducing fixtures to avoid buckling of the laminae under compression during the heat treatment process. The maximum built-in uniaxial anisotropy was 11.2 kJ m-(3).

AB One of the major discoveries of the Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (EIT) on SOHO was the intensity enhancements propagating over a large fraction of the solar surface. The physical origin(s) of the so-called EIT waves is still strongly debated with either wave (primarily fast-mode MHD waves) or nonwave (pseudo-wave) interpretations. The difficulty in understanding the nature of EUV waves lies in the limitations of the EIT observations that have been used almost exclusively for their study. They suffer from low cadence and single temperature and viewpoint coverage. These limitations are largely overcome by the SECCHI/EUVI observations onboard the STEREO mission. The EUVI telescopes provide high-cadence, simultaneous multitemperature coverage and two well-separated viewpoints. We present here the first detailed analysis of an EUV wave observed by the EUVI disk imagers on 7 December 2007 when the STEREO spacecraft separation was a parts per thousand aEuro parts per thousand 45A degrees. Both a small flare and a coronal mass ejection (CME) were associated with the wave. We also offer the first comprehensive comparison of the various wave interpretations against the observations. Our major findings are as follows: (1) High-cadence (2.5-minute) 171 aEuro parts per thousand images showed a strong association between expanding loops and the wave onset and significant differences in the wave appearance between the two STEREO viewpoints during its early stages; these differences largely disappeared later; (2) the wave appears at the active region periphery when an abrupt disappearance of the expanding loops occurs within an interval of 2.5 minutes; (3) almost simultaneous images at different temperatures showed that the wave was most visible in the 1 -aEuro parts per thousand 2 MK range and almost invisible in chromospheric/transition region temperatures; (4) triangulations of the wave indicate it was rather low lying (a parts per thousand aEuro parts per thousand 90 Mm above the surface); (5) forward-fitting of the corresponding CME as seen by the COR1 coronagraphs showed that the projection of the best-fit model on the solar surface was inconsistent with the location and size of the co-temporal EUV wave; and (6) simulations of a fast-mode wave were found in good agreement with the overall shape and location of the observed wave. Our findings give significant support for a fast-mode interpretation of EUV waves and indicate that they are probably triggered by the rapid expansion of the loops associated with the CME.

AB In this paper we present the first comprehensive statistical study of EUV coronal jets observed with the SECCHI (Sun Earth Connection Coronal and Heliospheric Investigation) imaging suites of the two STEREO spacecraft. A catalogue of 79 polar jets is presented, identified from simultaneous EUV and white-light coronagraph observations, taken during the time period March 2007 to April 2008, when solar activity was at a minimum. The twin spacecraft angular separation increased during this time interval from 2 to 48 degrees. The appearances of the coronal jets were always correlated with underlying small-scale chromospheric bright points. A basic characterization of the morphology and identification of the presence of helical structure were established with respect to recently proposed models for their origin and temporal evolution. Though each jet appeared morphologically similar in the coronagraph field of view, in the sense of a narrow collimated outward flow of matter, at the source region in the low corona the jet showed different characteristics, which may correspond to different magnetic structures. A classification of the events with respect to previous jet studies shows that amongst the 79 events there were 37 Eiffel tower-type jet events, commonly interpreted as a small-scale (similar to 35 arc sec) magnetic bipole reconnecting with the ambient unipolar open coronal magnetic fields at its loop tops, and 12 lambda-type jet events commonly interpreted as reconnection with the ambient field happening at the bipole footpoints. Five events were termed micro-CME-type jet events because they resembled the classical coronal mass ejections (CMEs) but on much smaller scales. The remaining 25 cases could not be uniquely classified. Thirty-one of the total number of events exhibited a helical magnetic field structure, indicative for a torsional motion of the jet around its axis of propagation. A few jets are also found in equatorial coronal holes. In this study we present sample events for each of the jet types using both, STEREO A and STEREO B, perspectives. The typical lifetimes in the SECCHI/EUVI (Extreme UltraViolet Imager) field of view between 1.0 to 1.7 R (aS (TM)) and in SECCHI/COR1 field of view between 1.4 to 4 R (aS (TM)) are obtained, and the derived speeds are roughly estimated. In summary, the observations support the assumption of continuous small-scale reconnection as an intrinsic feature of the solar corona, with its role for the heating of the corona, particle acceleration, structuring and acceleration of the solar wind remaining to be explored in more detail in further studies.

AB We have conducted a statistical study 27 coronal mass ejections (CMEs) from January 2007 - June 2008, using the stereoscopic views of STEREO SECCHI A and B combined with SOHO LASCO observations. A flux-rope model, in conjunction with 3D triangulations, has been used to reconstruct the 3D structures and determine the actual speeds of CMEs. The origin and the dynamic evolution of the CMEs are investigated using COR1, COR2 and EUVI images. We have identified four types of solar surface activities associated with CMEs: i) total eruptive prominence (totEP), ii) partially eruptive prominence (PEP), iii) X-ray flare, and iv) X-type magnetic structure (X-line). Among the 27 CMEs, 18.5% (5 of 27) are associated with totEPs, 29.6% (8 of 27) are associated with PEPs, 26% (7 of 27) are flare related, and 26% (7 of 27) are associated with X-line structures, and 43% (3 of 7) are associated with both X-line structures and PEPs. Three (11%) could not be associated with any detectable activity. The mean actual speeds for totEP-CMEs, PEP-CMEs, flare-CMEs, and X-line-CMEs are 404 km s(-1),247 km s(-1),909 km s(-1), and 276 km s(-1), respectively; the average mean values of edge-on and broadside widths for the 27 CMEs are 52 and 85 degrees, respectively. We found that slow CMEs (Va parts per thousand currency sign400 km s(-1)) tend to deflect towards and propagate along the streamer belts due to the deflections by the strong polar magnetic fields of corona holes, while some faster CMEs show opposite deflections away from the streamer belts.

AB We model the kinematics and three-dimensional distribution of mass in a coronal mass ejection (CME) observed on 17 May 2008, using a comprehensive analysis of STEREO images of the CME. The CME is a surprisingly fast one for solar minimum, reaching velocities of up to 1120 km s(-1). It can be followed continuously from inception all the way out to 1 AU. We find that the appearance of the CME can be modeled reasonably well as a combination of two distinct fronts that expand outward in a self-similar fashion. The model implies that STEREO-B is struck by the weaker of these two fronts on 19 May, and the in situ instruments on STEREO-B do see a weak density and magnetic field enhancement at the expected time.

AB Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) have a significant impact on space weather and geomagnetic storms and so have been the subject of numerous studies. Most CME observations have been made while these events are near the Sun (e.g., SOHO/LASCO). Recent data from the Coriolis/SMEI and STEREO/SECCHI-HI instruments have imaged CMEs farther into the heliosphere. Analyses of CME observations near the Sun measure the properties of these events by assuming that the emission is in the plane of the sky and hence the speed and mass are lower limits to the true values. However, this assumption cannot be used to analyze optical observations of CMEs far from the Sun, such as observations from SMEI and SECCHI-HI, since the CME source is likely to be far from the limb. In this paper we consider the geometry of observations made by LASCO, SMEI, and SECCHI. We also present results that estimate both CME speed and trajectory by fitting the CME elongations observed by these instruments. Using a constant CME speed does not generally produce profiles that fit observations at both large and small elongation, simultaneously. We include the results of a simple empirical model that alters the CME speed to an estimated value of the solar wind speed to simulate the effect of drag on the propagating CME. This change in speed improves the fit between the model and observations over a broad range of elongations.

AB We present a hybrid combination of forward and inverse reconstruction methods using multiple observations of a coronal mass ejection (CME) to derive the three-dimensional (3D) "true" height -aEuro parts per thousand time plots for individual CME components. We apply this hybrid method to the components of the 31 December 2007 CME. This CME, observed clearly in both the STEREO A and STEREO B COR2 white-light coronagraphs, evolves asymmetrically across the 15-solar-radius field of view within a span of three hours. The method has two reconstruction steps. We fit a boundary envelope for the potential 3D CME shape using a flux-rope-type model oriented to best match the observations. Using this forward model as a constraining envelope, we then run an inverse reconstruction, solving for the simplest underlying 3D electron density distribution that can, when rendered, reproduce the observed coronagraph data frames. We produce plots for each segment to establish the 3D or "true" height -aEuro parts per thousand time plots for each center of mass as well as for the bulk CME motion, and we use these plots along with our derived density profiles to estimate the CME's asymmetric expansion rate.

AB The inner coronagraph (COR1) of the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO) mission has made it possible to observe CMEs in the spatial domain overlapping with that of the metric type II radio bursts. The type II bursts were associated with generally weak flares (mostly B and C class soft X-ray flares), but the CMEs were quite energetic. Using CME data for a set of type II bursts during the declining phase of solar cycle 23, we determine the CME height when the type II bursts start, thus giving an estimate of the heliocentric distance at which CME-driven shocks form. This distance has been determined to be similar to 1.5R (s) (solar radii), which coincides with the distance at which the Alfv,n speed profile has a minimum value. We also use type II radio observations from STEREO/WAVES and Wind/WAVES observations to show that CMEs with moderate speed drive either weak shocks or no shock at all when they attain a height where the Alfv,n speed peaks (similar to 3R (s) -aEuro parts per thousand 4R (s)). Thus the shocks seem to be most efficient in accelerating electrons in the heliocentric distance range of 1.5R (s) to 4R (s). By combining the radial variation of the CME speed in the inner corona (CME speed increase) and interplanetary medium (speed decrease) we were able to correctly account for the deviations from the universal drift-rate spectrum of type II bursts, thus confirming the close physical connection between type II bursts and CMEs. The average height (similar to 1.5R (s)) of STEREO CMEs at the time of type II bursts is smaller than that (2.2R (s)) obtained for SOHO (Solar and Heliospheric Observatory) CMEs. We suggest that this may indicate, at least partly, the density reduction in the corona between the maximum and declining phases, so a given plasma level occurs closer to the Sun in the latter phase. In two cases, there was a diffuse shock-like feature ahead of the main body of the CME, indicating a standoff distance of 1R (s) -aEuro parts per thousand 2R (s) by the time the CME left the LASCO field of view.

AB The heliocentric orbits of the two STEREO satellites are similar in radius and ecliptic latitude, with separation in longitude increasing by about 45A degrees per year. This arrangement provides a unique opportunity to study the evolution of stream interfaces near 1 AU over time scales of hours to a few days, much less than the period of a Carrington rotation. Assuming nonevolving solar wind sources that corotate with the Sun, we calculated the expected time and longitude of arrival of stream interfaces at the Ahead observatory based on the in situ solar wind speeds measured at the Behind observatory. We find agreement to within 5A degrees between the expected and actual arrival longitude until the spacecraft are separated by more than 20A degrees in heliocentric inertial longitude. This corresponds to about one day between the measurement times. Much larger deviations, up to 25A degrees in longitude, are observed after 20A degrees separation. Some of the deviations can be explained by a latitude difference between the spacecraft, but other deviations most likely result from evolution of the source region. Both remote and in situ measurements show that changes at the source boundary can occur on a time scale much shorter than one solar rotation. In 32 of 41 cases, the interface was observed earlier than expected at STEREO/Ahead.

Bargaining Game

ID LAND ASSEMBLY PROBLEM; ECONOMIC-ANALYSIS; EMINENT DOMAIN; COMPENSATION;

AB When an economic exchange requires agreement by multiple independent parties, the potential exists for an individual to strategically delay agreement in an attempt to capture a greater share of the surplus created by the exchange. This "holdout problem" is a common feature of the land-assembly literature because development frequently requires the assembly of multiple parcels of land. We use experimental methods to examine holdout behavior in a laboratory bargaining game that involves multi-person groups, complementary exchanges, and holdout externalities. The results of six treatments that vary the bargaining institution, number of bargaining periods, and cost of delay demonstrate that holdout is common across institutions and is, on average, a payoff-improving strategy for responders. Both proposers and responders take a more aggressive initial bargaining stance in multi-period bargaining treatments relative to single-period treatments, but take a less aggressive bargaining stance when delay is costly. Nearly all exchanges eventually occur in our multi-period treatments, leading to higher overall efficiency relative to the single-period treatments, both with and without delay costs.

AB The Junior Reserve Officers' Training Corps (JROTC) is a high school initiative that serves many at-risk students. Its goals range from reducing dropout rates and improving academic achievement to preparing students for military careers. Using data from High School and Beyond (HSB) and the National Educational Longitudinal Study (NELS), we estimate average treatment effects on students attending schools that typically host JROTC. Applying a two-stage matching technique, we Find that JROTC participants have poorer academic outcomes than other students; although, a large portion of these differences is explained by their at-risk status. In addition, program effects appear to differ by demographic group, with black participants having lower dropout rates than white participants. The program also appears to improve self-esteem scores of females. Although the majority of JROTC participants do not join the military, we find large marginal enlistment effects.

AB An aliasing operator is introduced to mimic the effect of aliasing that causes discontinuities in radial-velocity observations, and to modify the observation term in the costfunction for direct assimilations of aliased radar radial-velocity observations into numerical models. It is found that if the aliasing operator is treated as a part of the observation operator and applied to the analysed radial velocity in a conventional way, then the analysis is not ensured to be aliased (or not aliased) in consistency with the aliased (or not aliased) observation at every observation point. Thus, the analysis-minus-observation term contains a large alias error whenever an inconsistency occurs at an observation point. This causes fine-structure discontinuities in the costfunction. An unconventional approach is thus introduced to apply the aliasing operator to the entire analysis-minus-observation term at each observation point in the observation term of the costfunction. With this approach, the costfunction becomes smooth and concave upwards in the vicinity of the global minimum. The usefulness of this approach for directly assimilating aliased radar radial-velocity observations under certain conditions is demonstrated by illustrative examples.

AB The relationship between friction, wear, and transfer films of three metal carbide-reinforced amorphous carbon coatings (TiC/a:C, TiC/a:C-H, and WC/a:C-H), sometimes referred to as metal-doped diamond-like carbon coatings, has been investigated. Tribological tests were performed in an in situ tribometer with sapphire or steel hemispheres run against coated flats in dry or ambient air. The sliding contact interface was observed and recorded by optical microscopy during reciprocating sliding tests. The friction and wear behavior during run-in depended on the number of sliding cycles to form a stationary transfer film on the hemisphere. Stationary transfer films formed rapidly (within ten cycles) and the friction coefficient fell to 0.2 (ambient air) or 0.1 (dry air), except with sapphire against WC/a:C-H in dry air; with the latter, a stationary transfer film required nearly 100 cycles to form, during which the friction remained high and the wear rate was from 10 to 100 times higher than the other two coatings. For all coatings, three velocity accommodation modes (VAM) were observed from run-in to steady-state sliding and were correlated with the friction and wear behavior. The delayed adherence of the transfer film to sapphire from WC/a:C-H coatings in dry air is discussed in terms of equilibrium thermochemistry. Friction and wear behavior during run-in, therefore, depended on transfer film adherence to the hemisphere and the VAM between transfer films and the coating.

AB The composite method is applied to verify a series of idealized and real precipitation forecasts as part of the Spatial Forecast Verification Methods Intercomparison Project. The test cases range from simple geometric shapes to high-resolution (similar to 4 km) numerical model precipitation output. The performance of the composite method is described as it is applied to each set of forecasts. In general, the method performed well because it was able to relay information concerning spatial displacement and areal coverage errors. Summary scores derived from the composite means and the individual events displayed relevant information in a condensed form. The composite method also showed an ability to discern performance attributes from high-resolution precipitation forecasts from several competing model configurations, though the results were somewhat limited by the lack of data. Overall, the composite method proved to be most sensitive in revealing systematic displacement errors, while it was less sensitive to systematic model biases.

AB This study evaluates the intraseasonal variability associated with summer precipitation over South America in 14 coupled general circulation models (GCMs) participating in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4). Eight years of each model's twentieth-century climate simulation are analyzed. Two dominant intraseasonal bands associated with summer precipitation over South America are focused on: the 40- and the 22-day band. The results show that in the southern summer (November-April), most of the models underestimate seasonal mean precipitation over central-east Brazil, northeast Brazil, and the South Atlantic convergence zone (SACZ), while the Atlantic intertropical convergence zone (ITCZ) is shifted southward of its observed position. Most of the models capture both the 40-and 22-day band around Uruguay, but with less frequent active episodes than observed. The models also tend to underestimate the total intraseasonal (10-90 day), the 40-, and the 22-day band variances. For the 40-day band, 10 of the 14 models simulate to some extent the 3-cell pattern around South America, and 6 models reproduce its teleconnection with precipitation in the south-central Pacific, but only 1 model simulates the teleconnection with the MJO in the equatorial Pacific, and only 3 models capture its northward propagation from 50 degrees to 32 degrees S. For the 7 models with three-dimensional data available, only 1 model reproduces well the deep baroclinic vertical structure of the 40-day band. For the 22-day band, only 6 of the 14 models capture its northward propagation from the SACZ to the Atlantic ITCZ. It is found that models with some form of moisture convective trigger tend to produce large variances for the intraseasonal bands.

AB A version of the reduced control space four-dimensional variational method (R4DVAR) of data assimilation into numerical models is proposed. In contrast to the conventional 4DVAR schemes, the method does not require development of the tangent linear and adjoint codes for implementation. The proposed R4DVAR technique is based on minimization of the cost function in a sequence of low-dimensional subspaces of the control space. Performance of the method is demonstrated in a series of twin-data assimilation experiments into a nonlinear quasigeostrophic model utilized as a strong constraint. When the adjoint code is stable, R4DVAR's convergence rate is comparable to that of the standard 4DVAR algorithm. In the presence of strong instabilities in the direct model, R4DVAR works better than 4DVAR whose performance is deteriorated because of the breakdown of the tangent linear approximation. Comparison of the 4DVAR and R4DVAR also shows that R4DVAR becomes advantageous when observations are sparse and noisy.

AB The effects of the Andes Cordillera, the major mountain range in South America, on precipitation patterns of baroclinic systems approaching from the southeast Pacific remain largely unstudied. This study focuses on a case in late May 2008 when an upper-level trough and surface cold front produced widespread precipitation in central Chile. The primary goal was to analyze the physical mechanisms responsible for the structure and evolution of the precipitation.
Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model simulations indicate that as an upper-level trough approached central Chile, midtropospheric flow below 700 hPa was blocked by the high topography and deflected poleward in the form of a barrier jet. This northerly jet had wind maxima in excess of 15 m s(-1), was centered around 925 hPa, and extended westward 200 km from the mountains. It intersected the cold front, which approached from the south near the coast, thereby increasing convergence along the frontal surface, slowing its equatorward progress, and enhancing rainfall over central Chile. Another separate region of heavy precipitation formed over the upwind slopes of the cordillera. A trajectory analysis confirmed that the barrier jet moved low-level parcels from their origin in the moist southeast Pacific boundary layer to the coast. When model topography was reduced to twenty percent of its original height, the cold front advanced more rapidly to the northeast, generated less precipitation in central Chile between 33 degrees and 36 degrees S, and produced minimal orographic precipitation on the upwind Andean slopes. Based on these findings, the high topography appears responsible for not only orographic precipitation but also for substantially increasing precipitation totals over the central coast and valley.

AB We demonstrate piezoresistive transduction of mechanical motion from out-of-plane flexural micromechanical resonators made from stacked thin films. The resonators are fabricated from two highly doped polycrystalline silicon layers separated by an interlayer dielectric. We examine two interlayer materials: thermal silicon dioxide and stoichiometric silicon nitride. We show that via one-time dielectric breakdown, the film stack functions as a vertical piezoresistor effectively transducing the motion of the resonators. We obtain a gauge factor of similar to 5, which is sufficient to detect the resonator motion. The simple film stack constitutes a vertically oriented piezoresistor that is readily integrated with micro- and nanoscale resonators. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3241077]

TI NOx descent in the Arctic middle atmosphere in early 2009
SO GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH LETTERS

DT Article
ID ENHANCEMENTS; TEMPERATURE; VORTEX
AB Measurements by the Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment show that the amount of NOx (NO + NO2) produced by energetic particle precipitation (EPP) that descended from the Arctic mesosphere and lower thermosphere into the stratosphere in early 2009 was up to similar to 50 times higher than average in 2005, 2007 and 2008. This is of note because the level of EPP in the preceding months was very low, suggesting that excess production of NOx was not the cause of the enhancements. Rather, the enhancements are attributed to unusually strong descent in the middle atmosphere. This is the third time on record that extraordinary meteorology contributed to descent of excess NOx. The results confirm that EPP impacts on the middle atmosphere can be large even in the absence of exceptional EPP, and highlight the need to continually measure NOx throughout the polar region from the stratosphere to the lower thermosphere.

AB The Plasmodium falciparum circumsporozoite protein (CSP) is critical for sporozoite function and invasion of hepatocytes. Given its critical nature, a phase III human CSP malaria vaccine trial is ongoing. The CSP is composed of three regions as follows: an N terminus that binds heparin sulfate proteoglycans, a four amino acid repeat region (NANP), and a C terminus that contains a thrombospondin-like type I repeat (TSR) domain. Despite the importance of CSP, little is known about its structure. Therefore, recombinant forms of CSP were produced by expression in both Escherichia coli (Ec) and then refolded (EcCSP) or in the methylotrophic yeast Pichia pastoris (PpCSP) for structural analyses. To analyze the TSR domain of recombinant CSP, conformation-dependent monoclonal antibodies that recognized unfixed P. falciparum sporozoites and inhibited sporozoite invasion of HepG2 cells in vitro were identified. These monoclonal antibodies recognized all recombinant CSPs, indicating the recombinant CSPs contain a properly folded TSR domain structure. Characterization of both EcCSP and PpCSP by dynamic light scattering and velocity sedimentation demonstrated that both forms of CSP appeared as highly extended proteins (R(h) 4.2 and 4.58 nm, respectively). Furthermore, high resolution atomic force microscopy revealed flexible, rod-like structures with a ribbon-like appearance. Using this information, we modeled the NANP repeat and TSR domain of CSP. Consistent with the biochemical and biophysical results, the repeat region formed a rod-like structure about 21-25 nm in length and 1.5 nm in width. Thus native CSP appears as a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored, flexible rod-like protein on the sporozoite surface.

AB Turbulence measurements for a zero pressure gradient boundary layer over a two-dimensional roughness are presented and compared to previous results for a smooth wall and a three-dimensional roughness (Volino, Schultz & Flack, J. Fluid Mech., vol. 592, 2007, p. 263). The present experiments were made on transverse square bars in the fully rough flow regime. The turbulence structure was documented through the fluctuating velocity components, two-point correlations of the fluctuating velocity and swirl strength and linear stochastic estimation conditioned on the swirl and Reynolds shear stress. The two-dimensional bars lead to significant changes in the turbulence in the outer flow. Reynolds stresses, particularly (v'2) over bar (+) and -(u'v') over bar (+) increase, although the mean flow is not as significantly affected. Large-scale turbulent motions originating at the wall lead to increased spatial scales in the Outer flow. The dominant feature of the outer flow, however, remains hairpin vortex packets which have similar inclination angles for all wall conditions. The differences between boundary layers over two-dimensional and three-dimensional roughness are attributable to the scales of the motion induced by each type of roughness. This study has shown three-dimensional roughness produces turbulence scales of the order of the roughness height k while the motions generated by two-dimensional roughness may be much larger due to the width of the roughness elements. It is also noted that there are fundamental differences in the response of internal and external flows to strong wall perturbations, with internal flows being less sensitive to roughness effects.

AB In order to understand the consensus that mechanical loss of an oscillator increases as its size decreases, we studied the internal friction of a 1.5 mu m thick micro-mechanical oscillator with laser Doppler vibrometry. We separated the loss due to attachment by studying mode shape dependence of different vibration modes, the loss due to defects generated during plasma etching by rapid thermal annealing. loss due to surface adsorbates by its post-anneal time dependence, loss due to surface roughness by sand-blasting of a macro-mechanical oscillator. We conclude that the near surface lattice defects caused by plasma etching and surface adsorbates are the main source of the observed internal friction at room temperature. While the loss caused by plasma etching can be annealed away, the effect associated with surface adsorbates will come back after annealing. We further studied the internal friction at low temperatures and by in situ laser-flash annealing. We found that the loss associated with the surface adsorbates is responsible for an internal friction peak at about 155 K. The reversible time dependence of internal friction at room temperature is attributed to the broad tail of the peak at 155 K. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Numerous high-resolution (1 km or better) images from satellite remote sensing platforms, i.e., space shuttle, Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor, and the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer, show dust plumes at the scale of 100 km originate from the merging of a multitude of point source plumes. These point source plumes stem from numerous point sources measuring 1-10s km across. Capitalizing on the Naval Research Laboratory's recently developed satellite derived 1-km Dust Enhancement Product (DEP) imagery we can readily distinguish elevated dust over land from other components of the scene and identify the many small, eroding point sources that form the heads of point source plumes. On the basis of this approach, a high-resolution (1-km) dust source database (DSD) is created using 5 years (2001-2005) of DEP imagery for southwest Asia. The performance of the Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS) using the high-resolution DSD is evaluated via a case study of a major dust event over Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan in October 2001. The results from our case study show that the improved specification of erodible land surfaces by use of a high-resolution DSD allows COAMPS to accurately model the evolution of individual dust plumes and better forecast the onset and end of dust storm occurrence (i.e., low-visibility conditions). Statistical analyses of the visibility predictions and dust storm occurrence show simulations using the high-resolution DSD have the lowest false alarm rates and the highest total prediction skill among the other DSDs that were considered. This work contributes to the growing base of knowledge concerning the global dust cycle by identifying and mapping point sources in one of the world's foremost dust-producing regions.

Three cases with uniform aerosol concentration and minimal drizzle concentration were examined to study cloud microphysical behavior. For these three cases, the average droplet number concentration increased with increasing altitude, while the average interstitial aerosol concentration decreased with altitude. The data show enhanced growth of large droplets and spectral broadening in cloud parcels with low liquid water mixing ratio. Three mixing models, including inhomogeneous mixing, entity type entrainment mixing, and circulation mixing proposed in this study, are examined with regard to their influences on cloud microphysics. The observed cloud microphysical behavior is most consistent with the circulation mixing, which describes the mixing between cloud parcels with different lifting condensation levels during their circulations driven by evaporative and radiative cooling. The enhanced growth and spectrum broadening resulting from the circulation mixing reduce cloud albedo at the same liquid water path and facilitate the formation of precipitation embryos.

AB Vanadium oxide reference compounds, KVO3 and V2O5, and supported vanadium oxide catalysts (Al2O3, TiO2, and SiO2) were investigated using magic angle sample spinning O-17 NMR. All samples were O-17-enriched using gas-solid exchange. Extraction of chemical shift and quadrupolar coupling information for the model compounds KVO3 bind V2O5 was performed via the simulation of MAS spectra obtained in one-pulse experiments and the observations were consistent with their known bulk structures. For the supported vanadia catalysts, it was found that the oxygen exchange process is dominated by O-17 signal from the catalyst oxide supports. Spectra obtained via rotor-synchronized spin echoes revealed additional wide lines for Al2O3 and TiO2 supported vanadia catalysts that arise from O-17 in the surface vanadia species of the catalysts. Additional O-17-V-51 TRAPDOR (TRAnsfer of Populations in DOUble Resonance) experiments support this assignment. The wide lines suggest that the local environments of the O-17 nuclei associated with the dehydrated Surface vanadia species are extremely heterogeneous and fall in the range of oxygen in singly (V=O) and/or doubly coordinated environments (V-O-V or V-O-Support). The relatively small total amount of O-17 associated with the surface vanadia species contrasts with oxygen exchange models which commonly assume only the surface vanadium oxide layer is involved. These results demonstrate that the isotopic exchange of molecular O-2 with Supported metal oxide catalysts, especially supported vanadia catalysts, is a much more complex process than originally perceived.

TI Hall effect mobility of epitaxial graphene grown on silicon carbide

DT Article
ID SIO2
AB Epitaxial graphene (EG) films were grown in vacuo by silicon sublimation from the (0001) and (000 (1) over bar) faces of 4H-SiC and 6H-SiC. Hall effect mobilities and sheet carrier densities of the films were measured at 300 and 77 K and the data depended on the growth face. About 40% of the samples exhibited holes as the dominant carrier, independent of face. Generally, mobilities increased with decreasing carrier density, independent of carrier type and substrate polytype. The contributions of scattering mechanisms to the conductivities of the films are discussed. The results suggest that for near-intrinsic carrier densities at 300 K epitaxial graphene mobilities will be similar to 150 000 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) on the (000 (1) over bar) face and similar to 5800 cm(2) V(-1) s(-1) on the (0001) face.

AB We show how changes in a local, high frequency dynamic process are correlated with the macroscopic behavior of glassy polymers. Polyvinylethylenes vitrified by different chemical and thermodynamic pathways exhibit different densities in the glassy state. We find that the rate and amplitude of a high frequency relaxation mode (the Johari-Goldstein process involving local motion of segments of the chain backbone) can either correlate or anticorrelate with the density. This implies that neither the unoccupied (free) volume nor the configurational entropy governs the local dynamics in any general sense. Rather it is the magnitude of the fluctuations in local density that underlie these nanometer-scale motions. We show how properties of the dynamics and the density fluctuations can both be interpreted in terms of an asymmetric double well potential. Although the results herein are for polymers, the principles are expected to be generally applicable to glassy materials. [doi: 10.1063/1.3223279]

AB We present new measurements of the time variability of intensity, Doppler, and nonthermal velocities in moss in an active region core observed by the EUV Imaging Spectrometer on Hinode in 2007 June. The measurements are derived from spectral profiles of the Fe XII 195 angstrom line. Using the 2 '' slit, we repeatedly scanned 150 '' by 150 '' in a few minutes. This is the first time it has been possible to make such velocity measurements in the moss, and the data presented are the highest cadence spatially resolved maps of moss Doppler and nonthermal velocities ever obtained in the corona. The observed region produced numerous C-and M-class flares with several occurring in the core close to the moss. The magnetic field was therefore clearly changing in the active region core, so we ought to be able to detect dynamic signatures in the moss if they exist. Our measurements of moss intensities agree with previous studies in that a less than 15% variability is seen over a period of 16 hr. Our new measurements of Doppler and nonthermal velocities reveal no strong flows or motions in the moss, nor any significant variability in these quantities. The results confirm that moss at the bases of high temperature coronal loops is heated quasi-steadily. They also show that quasi-steady heating can contribute significantly even in the core of a flare productive active region. Such heating may be impulsive at high frequency, but if so it does not give rise to large flows or motions.

ID DUST; ICE; PARTICLES
AB This work describes the first remote observations of meteoric smoke particles (MSPs) from satellite, by the Solar Occultation For Ice Experiment (SOFIE) onboard the Aeronomy of Ice in the Mesosphere (AIM) platform. The measurements show a layer of MSPs from roughly 35 to 85 km altitude, and indicate a seasonal cycle with reduced MSP abundance during polar summer. The measurements agree favorably with model results, and confirm that MSP transport by the global meridional circulation causes the dramatic reduction in MSPs during polar summer. These new observations represent a major advance in our ability to understand a hitherto poorly characterized class of particles that are thought to be important in numerous atmospheric and terrestrial processes.

The spin-injected field effect transistor, a lateral semiconducting channel with two ferromagnetic electrodes, lies at the foundation of spintronics research. We demonstrated a spin-injected field effect transistor in a high-mobility InAs heterostructure with empirically calibrated electrical injection and detection of ballistic spin-polarized electrons. We observed and fit to theory an oscillatory channel conductance as a function of monotonically increasing gate voltage.

AB Broadband dielectric measurements on the pharmaceutical indomethacin (IMC) were performed at ambient and elevated pressure. Data on molecular dynamics collected at ambient pressure are in good agreement with that published in the literature. In the glassy state, there is a well-resolved secondary relaxation with Arrhenius activation energy E(a) = 38 kJ/mol. This commonly observed relaxation process (labeled gamma) is of intramolecular origin because it is pressure-insensitive. Closer analysis of the ambient pressure dielectric spectra obtained in the vicinity of the T(g) indicated the presence of one more secondary relaxation (beta), which is slower than that commonly observed. Application of the CM predictions enabled LIS to classify it its a true JG relaxation. Pressure measurements confirmed our supposition concerning the origins of the two secondary relaxations ill IMC. Moreover, we have found that IMC under pressure does not crystallize, even at very high temperatures of T >= 372 K. This finding wits discussed in the framework of the two-order parameter model proposed by Tanaka (Konishi, T.; Tanaka, H. Phys. Rev B 2007, 76, 220201), as well as the JG relaxation proposal by Oguni (Hikima T.; Hanaya M., Oguni M. J. Mol Struct. 1999, 479, 245). We also showed that the shape of the beta-relaxation loss peak is the same when comparing dielectric spectra with the same tau(alpha) but obtained at ambient and elevated pressure. Additionally, we found out that the fragility of IMC decreases with increasing pressure. In addition, the pressure coefficient of the glass transition temperature, dT(g)/dP, was determined, and it is 255 K/GPa. Finally, we discuss the possibility of preparation of the amorphous state with higher density than by cooling of the liquid.

TI Evaluation and Validation of a Real-Time PCR Assay for Detection and

SO PLOS ONE

DT Article
AB In 2007, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that Human adenovirus type 14 (HAdV-14) infected 106 military personnel and was responsible for the death of one U. S. soldier at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. Identification of the responsible adenovirus, which had not previously been seen in North America and for which rapid diagnostic tools were unavailable, required retrospective analysis at reference laboratories. Initial quarantine measures were also reliant on relatively slow traditional PCR analysis at other locations. To address this problem, we developed a real-time PCR assay that detects a 225 base pair sequence in the HAdV-14a hexon gene. Fifty-one oropharyngeal swab specimens from the Naval Health Research Center, San Diego, CA and Advanced Diagnostic Laboratory, Lackland AFB, TX were used to validate the new assay. The described assay detected eight of eight and 19 of 19 confirmed HAdV-14a clinical isolates in two separate cohorts from respiratory disease outbreaks. The real-time PCR assay had a wide dynamic range, detecting from 10 2 to 10 7 copies of genomic DNA per reaction. The assay did not cross-react with other adenoviruses, influenza, respiratory syncytial virus, or common respiratory tract bacteria. The described assay is easy to use, sensitive and specific for HAdV-14a in clinical throat swab specimens, and very rapid since turnaround time is less than four hours to obtain an answer.

AB For many years, dynamic pricing has proven to be an effective tool to increase revenue in the airline and other service industries. Most studies, however, focused oil monopolistic models and ignored the fact that nowadays consumers can easily compare prices on the Internet. In this paper, we develop a game-theoretic model to describe real-time dynamic price competition between firms that sell substitutable products. By assuming the real-time inventory levels of all firms are public information, we show the existence of Nash equilibrium. We then discuss how a firm can adapt if it knows only the initial - but not the real-time - inventory levels of its competitors. We compare a firm's expected revenue under different information structures through numerical experiments. (c) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We present a newly developed algorithm for simultaneously inferring the peak height and peak density of the O+ ions in the nighttime ionosphere. The technique relies on the simultaneous observation of the emissions of atomic oxygen at 130.4 and 135.6 nm that are primarily produced by radiative recombination, a natural decay process of the ionosphere. The 135.6 nm emission has become the workhorse for sensing O+ distribution from space from low-Earth platforms where it has been used to infer the peak electron density. A previous study showed that the line ratio of the intensity of the 130.4/135.6 nm radiances is sensitive to the peak height of the ionosphere, as the ratio of the two radiances is dependent on the overlap of the O+ distribution with the thermospheric O layer. We present a new parametric study of these emissions using a new algorithm that permits the retrieval of the peak electron density and the peak height of the F region ionosphere from the measured radiances of the 135.6 and 130.4 nm emissions. We examine the sensitivity of the retrievals to the ionospheric and thermospheric state and to the signal-to-noise ratio of the observations. This new technique enables the determination of the peak height and peak density of the nighttime F region ionosphere as functions of latitude and longitude from nadir-viewing geostationary satellites.

Starting with extracted bacterial DNA, samples are fragmented by restriction enzymes or sonication, then thermocycled in the presence of blocking and labeling sequences, and finally detected with microbead-based FFD assays. Both strain and species identification of extracted Bacillus DNA have been demonstrated in <30 min, without amplification (e.g., PCR). Femtomolar assays can be achieved with this rapid and simple procedure. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

These are improvements of second-order methods for solving nonlinear equations and are based on the method of undetermined coefficients. We show that the fourth-order method is more efficient than the fifth-order method due to Kou et al. [J. Kou, Y. Li, X. Wang, Some modi. cations of Newton's method with fifth-order covergence, J.

AB Previous studies have shown that a functionalized viral nanoparticle can be used as a fluorescent signal-generating element and enhance detection sensitivity for immunoassays; and low density microarrays. In this study, we further tested this ability in commercial DNA microarrays, including Affymetrix high density resequencing microarray. Optimum conditions for NeutrAvidin and dye coupling to a double-cysteine mutant of cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV) were found to be comparable to the commonly used streptavidin-phycoerythrin (SAPE) for high density resequencing microarray. A 3-fold signal enhancement in comparison to Cy5-dCTP controls was obtained when using nanoparticles on control scorecard expression microarrays. Hybridization results from commercially available 8000 rat expression arrays indicate an increment of 14% on the detected features when the virus complex was used as the staining reagent in comparison to Cy5-dCTP controls. The current work shows the utility of the CPMV-dye nanoparticles as a detection reagent in well-established detection platforms. Published by Elsevier B.V.

SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
ID ELECTRON-PARAMAGNETIC-RESONANCE; DEVICES
AB Two different photothresholds of the carbon vacancy-carbon antisite pair defect (VCCSi-) in 4H-SiC are observed using photoinduced electron paramagnetic resonance. The defect appeared after illumination with photon energy greater than 0.75 eV in two samples grown by halide chemical vapor deposition (HCVD) and one by physical vapor transport (PVT), all with activation energies (E-a) below 0.80 eV. In HCVD and PVT samples with higher activation energies, the defect was not detected with photon excitation less than 2.1 eV. The increase in VCCSi- parallels changes in the negatively charged carbon vacancy V-C(-) in the samples with low E-a. For SiC samples with high E-a, the concentration of the anitisite-vacancy pair also increases with V-C(-) and, in addition, is accompanied by a simultaneous decrease in V-C(+). The results are interpreted in terms of two defect levels, one for the double negative-to-negative transition of VCCSi at 0.75 eV below the conduction band edge and another for the negative-to-neutral transition of the defect at 2.1 eV above the valence band edge. The model yielding these levels also suggests that the neutral-to-negative and negative-to-double negative transitions of the isolated carbon vacancy are within a few tenths of an eV of each other and are located close to the conduction band edge.

AB The colloidal stability of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) cap-exchanged with either monothiol- or dithiolane-terminated PEG-OCH(3) ligands was investigated. Three distinct aspects were explored: (1) effects of excess salt concentration; (2) ligation competition by dithiothreitol (DTT); and (3) resistance to sodium cyanide digestion. We found that overall ligands presenting higher coordination numbers (dithiolane) exhibit much better stability to excess added salt and against competition from DTT compared to their monodentate counterparts. Resistance to NaCN digestion indicated that there is a balance between coordination number and density of ligand packing on the NP surface. For smaller NPs, where a larger surface curvature reduces the ligand packing density, a higher coordination number is clearly beneficial. In comparison, a higher ligand density allowed by the smaller curvature for larger nanocrystals makes monothiol-PEG-capped NPs more resistant to cyanide digestion. The present study indicates that balance between the coordination number and surface packing density is crucial to enhancing the colloidal stability of AuNPs.

AB The breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein relation was investigated for three glass-forming models composed of mixtures of Lennard-Jones A-B particles, which have been constructed by modifying the shape of the interaction potential between A particles. By performing molecular dynamics simulations, we show that these mixtures intrinsically possess different organizations. The breakdown of the Stokes-Einstein relation particularly occurs at different temperatures for each type of particles and it is directly related to the dynamical decoupling between A and B particles and the formation or not of paths where fast particles show jumplike motions. The effective size of each particles and the fraction of slow and fast particles were also determined. Similarity with silicate glasses including mixed alkali effect is discussed.

AB We present a three-dimensional model of the density distribution of a coronal mass ejection (CME) from 2008 April 26. This CME was observed by the two spacecraft composing the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO), which tracked the CME from near the Sun, into the interplanetary medium (IPM), and all the way to 1 AU. The CME was directed toward STEREO-B and hit that spacecraft on 2008 April 29. The STEREO images of the CME show an internal structure that can be interpreted as having a flux rope shape. The two different perspectives on the event provided by the two STEREO spacecraft allow us to make a particularly strong argument for the flux rope interpretation, and the STEREO data also allow us to study the evolution of the flux rope in the IPM. The flux rope is oriented close to the ecliptic plane, but with the western leg tilted northwards by about 20 degrees. This implies an orientation roughly perpendicular to the neutral line of the active region at the event's point of origin, apparently an unusual geometry given that previous analyses have found that CME flux ropes are usually, but not always, oriented parallel to the neutral lines of their source regions. The CME model also consists of a front out ahead of the flux rope, possibly a shock launched by the flux rope driver. The model density distribution is reasonably successful at reproducing the CME appearance both close to the Sun in coronagraphic images, and far from the Sun in images of the IPM from STEREO's heliospheric imagers. This suggests that self-similar expansion is a reasonable first-order approximation for this particular CME, and also indicates that the flux rope's orientation does not change much during its journey through the IPM.

AB Many models for coronal loops have difficulty explaining the observed EUV brightness of the transition region, which is often significantly less than theoretical models predict. This discrepancy has been addressed by a variety of approaches including filling factors and time-dependent heating, with varying degrees of success. Here, we focus on an effect that has been ignored so far: the absorption of EUV light with wavelengths below 912 angstrom by the resonance continua of neutral hydrogen and helium. Such absorption is expected to occur in the low-lying transition region of hot, active region loops that is colocated with cool chromospheric features and called "moss" as a result of the reticulated appearance resulting from the absorption. We use cotemporal and cospatial spectroheliograms obtained with the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory/SUMER and Hinode/EIS of Fe xII 1242 angstrom, 195 angstrom, and 186.88 angstrom, and compare the density determination from the 186/195 angstrom line ratio to that resulting from the 195/1242 angstrom line ratio. We find that while coronal loops have compatible density values from these two line pairs, upper transition region moss has conflicting density determinations. This discrepancy can be resolved by taking into account significant absorption of 195 angstrom emission caused by the chromospheric inclusions in the moss. We find that the amount of absorption is generally of the order of a factor of 2. We compare to numerical models and show that the observed effect is well reproduced by three-dimensional radiative MHD models of the transition region and corona. We use STEREO A/B data of the same active region and find that increased angles between line of sight and local vertical cause additional absorption. Our determination of the amount of chromospheric absorption of TR emission can be used to better constrain coronal heating models.

AB Acceleration and transport of high-energy particles and fluid dynamics of atmospheric plasma are interrelated aspects of solar flares, but for convenience and simplicity they were artificially separated in the past. We present here self-consistently combined Fokker-Planck modeling of particles and hydrodynamic simulation of flare plasma. Energetic electrons are modeled with the Stanford unified code of acceleration, transport, and radiation, while plasma is modeled with the Naval Research Laboratory flux tube code. We calculated the collisional heating rate directly from the particle transport code, which is more accurate than those in previous studies based on approximate analytical solutions. We repeated the simulation of Mariska et al. with an injection of power law, downward-beamed electrons using the new heating rate. For this case, a similar to 10% difference was found from their old result. We also used a more realistic spectrum of injected electrons provided by the stochastic acceleration model, which has a smooth transition from a quasi-thermal background at low energies to a nonthermal tail at high energies. The inclusion of low-energy electrons results in relatively more heating in the corona (versus chromosphere) and thus a larger downward heat conduction flux. The interplay of electron heating, conduction, and radiative loss leads to stronger chromospheric evaporation than obtained in previous studies, which had a deficit in low-energy electrons due to an arbitrarily assumed low-energy cutoff. The energy and spatial distributions of energetic electrons and bremsstrahlung photons bear signatures of the changing density distribution caused by chromospheric evaporation. In particular, the density jump at the evaporation front gives rise to enhanced emission, which, in principle, can be imaged by X-ray telescopes. This model can be applied to investigate a variety of high-energy processes in solar, space, and astrophysical plasmas.

AB The Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer has observed five outbursts from the transient 2.5 ms accretion-powered pulsar SAX J1808.4-3658 during 1998-2008. We present a pulse timing study of the most recent outburst and compare it with the previous timing solutions. The spin frequency of the source continues to decrease at a rate of (-5.5 +/- 1.2) x 10(-18) Hz s(-1), which is consistent with the previously determined spin derivative. The spin down occurs mostly during quiescence, and is most likely due to the magnetic dipole torque from a B = 1.5 x 10(8) G dipolar field at the neutron star surface. We also find that the 2 hr binary orbital period is increasing at a rate of (3.80 +/- 0.06) x 10(-12) s s(-1), also consistent with previous measurements. It remains uncertain whether this orbital change reflects secular evolution or short-term variability.

PULSARS; EMISSION; SCATTERING; REGION; IMAGE
AB We report the discovery of three pulsars whose large dispersion measures (DMs) and angular proximity to Sgr A* indicate the existence of a Galactic center population of neutron stars. The relatively long periods (0.98-1.48 s) most likely reflect strong selection against short-period pulsars from radio-wave scattering at the observation frequency of 2 GHz used in our survey with the Green Bank Telescope. One object (PSR J1746-2850I) has a characteristic spindown age of only 13 kyr along with a high surface magnetic field similar to 4 x 10(13) G. It and a second object found in the same telescope pointing, PSR J1746-2850II (which has the highest known DM among pulsars), may have originated from recent star formation in the Arches or Quintuplet clusters given their angular locations. Along with a third object, PSR J1745-2910, and two similar high-dispersion, long-period pulsars reported by Johnston et al., the five objects found so far are 10-15 arcmin from Sgr A*, consistent with there being a large pulsar population in the Galactic center, most of whose members are undetectable in relatively low-frequency surveys because of pulse broadening from the same scattering volume that angularly broadens Sgr A* and OH/IR masers.

TI Comparisons of equatorial irregularities measurements from C/NOFS: TEC
using CERTO and CITRIS with in-situ plasma density
SO GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID MISSION
AB Equatorial plasma density measurements using two techniques are analyzed. The unique instrument complement on C/NOFS (Communication/Navigations Outages Forecasting System) allows for the measurement of TEC (Total Electron Content) using the CERTO (Coherent Electromagnetic Radio TOmography) beacon and measurement of in-situ densities using the PLP (Planar Langmuir Probe). In a nearby orbit, the CITRIS (sCIntilation and TEC Receiver In Space) was available for complementary measurements. TEC was measured with 1) CERTO-CITRIS conjunctions that allow estimates of absolute TEC and 2) CITRIS with ground-based DORIS (Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite) beacons. The combination of the remote and in-situ techniques provides more information, enhanced believability for probe measurements as the satellite transitions from darkness to sunlight, as well as cross-calibration and better accuracy for both data sets. The measurements presented are taken in unusually quiet geomagnetic conditions and indicate equatorial irregularities are present nearly 80% of the time for nighttime measurements.

We compare RAS results from the hydrogenated, clean and oxidized C(001) surface and demonstrate that RAS is sensitive to the structural transition of the surface from the 2 x 1 reconstruction of the clean surface to the 1 x 1 reconstruction of the oxidized surface.

AB Ga2O3 nanowire gas sensors were fabricated using the vapor-liquid-solid method of nanowire growth over platinum interdigitated electrodes. While cheaply and easily fabricated, the sensors are capable of detecting various analytes at room temperature. As analyte is adsorbed onto the nanowire surfaces, a change in the device capacitance is measured. Fast recovery of the sensing devices, without the use of an external heat source, allows these devices to operate at low power. Capacitance is seen to increase following a Freundlich isotherm in response to increasing concentrations of analyte vapors.

AB Well-collimated proton beams are generated from bulk glass along the target normal direction by tightly focused 55 fs, 3 mJ pulses from a laser operating at 0.5 kHz repetition rate. Proton beams with energies of >265 keV have an emission angle of about 16 degrees full width at half maximum. Spectral measurements indicate proton energies exceeding 0.5 MeV with a flux of 3.2x10(9) s(-1) sr(-1) and the flux of measured protons with energies of greater than 90 keV is 8.5x10(11) s(-1) sr(-1) on center.

TI Enhanced breakdown strength of multilayered films fabricated by forced
assembly microlayer coextrusion
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICS D-APPLIED PHYSICS
LA English

ID FLUORIDE)
AB There is a need in electronic systems and pulsed power applications for capacitors with high energy density. From a material standpoint, capacitive energy density improves with increasing dielectric constant and/or breakdown strength. Current state-of-the-art polymeric capacitors are, however, limited in that their dielectric constant is low (2-4). Our approach to improve polymer film capacitors is to combine, through microlayer coextrusion, two polymers with complementary properties: one with a high breakdown strength (polycarbonate) and one with a high dielectric constant (polyvinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene). As opposed to the monolith controls, multilayered films with various numbers of layers and compositions subjected to a pulsed voltage exhibit treeing patterns that hinder the breakdown process. Consequently, substantially enhanced breakdown strengths are measured in the mutilayered films. It is further shown, by varying the overall film thickness, that the charge at the tip of the needle electrode is a key parameter that controls treeing. Based on the acquired data, a breakdown mechanism is formulated to explain the increased dielectric strengths. Using the understanding gained from these systems, selection and optimization of future layered structures can be carried out to obtain additional property enhancements.

TI Inference of Antibiotic Resistance and Virulence among Diverse Group A
Streptococcus Strains Using emm Sequencing and Multilocus Genotyping
Methods
SO PLOS ONE
LA English
DT Article
AB Background: Group A Streptococcus pyogenes ( GAS) exhibits a high degree of clinically relevant phenotypic diversity. Strains vary widely in terms of antibiotic resistance (AbR), clinical severity, and transmission rate. Currently, strain identification is achieved by emm typing ( direct sequencing of the genomic segment coding for the antigenic portion of the M protein) or by multilocus genotyping methods. Phenotype analysis, including critical AbR typing, is generally achieved by much slower and more laborious direct culture-based methods.
Methodology/Principal Findings: We compare genotype identification ( by emm typing and PCR/ESI-MS) with directly measured phenotypes ( AbR and outbreak associations) for 802 clinical isolates of GAS collected from symptomatic patients over a period of 6 years at 10 military facilities in the United States. All independent strain characterization methods are highly correlated. This shows that recombination, horizontal transfer, and other forms of reassortment are rare in GAS insofar as housekeeping genes, primary virulence and antibiotic resistance determinants, and the emm gene are concerned. Therefore, genotyping methods offer an efficient way to predict emm type and the associated AbR and virulence phenotypes.
Conclusions/Significance: The data presented here, combined with much historical data, suggest that emm typing assays and faster molecular methods that infer emm type from genomic signatures could be used to efficiently infer critical phenotypic characteristics based on robust genotype: phenotype correlations. This, in turn, would enable faster and better-targeted responses during identified outbreaks of constitutively resistant or particularly virulent emm types.

TI Influence of Biaryl Phosphine Structure on C-N and C-C Bond Formation

AB In order to understand how electronic and other structural characteristics of biphenyl phosphine ligands affect Pd-catalyzed C-N and C-C bond-forming reactions, a new ligand, 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)-4'-(N,N-dimethylamino)-1,1'-biphenyl, was synthesized. This compound is isomeric with the commercially available 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)-2'-(N,N-dimethylamino)-1,1'-biphenyl that has been useful in C-N bond-forming reactions of nucleosides. The new p-dimethylamino biphenyl ligand bears electronic similarities to the o-dimethylamino isomer, but it also possesses structural similarities to 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl, such as the unsubstituted ortho positions in the non-phosphine ring. Whereas 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl can support catalysts for C-C bond formation, it was not effective in promoting aryl amination of a nucleoside substrate. However, the new ligand proved to be effective in promoting both aryl amination and C-C bond-forming reactions of nucleoside substrates, with some reactions even occurring at room temperature. Thus, the composite structural elements of this new ligand are thought to be criteria for reactivity of the catalytic system derived from it. We have probed the structures of the isomeric N,N-dimethylamino biphenyl ligands by X-ray crystallographic analysis. Interactions of the two ligands with Pd(OAC)(2) have been investigated by (31)P NMR, and they show substantial stoichiometry-dependent differences. These results have been compared to the interactions of Pd(OAc)(2) with 2-(dicyclohexylphosphino)biphenyl as well as 2-(di-tert-butylphosphino)biphenyl, and they reveal marked differences as well. In this process, three cyclopalladated biaryl derivatives have been isolated and characterized by X-ray analysis.
