AB A reference design for a commercial-scale high-temperature electrolysis (HTE) plant for hydrogen production was developed to provide a basis for comparing the HTE concept with other hydrogen-production concepts. The reference plant design is driven by a high-temperature helium-cooled nuclear reactor coupled to a direct Brayton power cycle. The reference design reactor power is 600 MW(t), with a primary system pressure of 7.0 MPa, and reactor inlet and outlet fluid temperatures of 540 degrees C and 900 degrees C, respectively. The electrolysis unit used to produce hydrogen includes 4,009,177 cells with a per-cell active area of 225 cm(2). The optimized design for the reference hydrogen-production plant operates at a system pressure of 5.0 MPa, and utilizes an air-sweep system to remove the excess oxygen that has evolved on the anode (oxygen) side of the electrolyzer. The inlet air for the air-sweep system is compressed to the system operating pressure of 5.0 MPa in a four-stage compressor with intercooling. The alternating current to direct current conversion efficiency is 96%. The overall system thermal-to-hydrogen-production efficiency (based on the lower heating value of the produced hydrogen) is 47.1% at a hydrogen-production rate of 2.356 kg/s. This hydrogen-production efficiency is considerably higher than can be achieved using current low-temperature electrolysis techniques. An economic analysis of this plant was performed using the standardized hydrogen analysis methodology developed by the Department of Energy Hydrogen Program, and using realistic financial and cost estimating assumptions. The results of the economic analysis demonstrated that the HTE hydrogen-production plant driven by a high-temperature helium-cooled nuclear power plant can deliver hydrogen at a competitive cost. A cost of $3.23/kg of hydrogen was calculated assuming an internal rate of return of 10%. [DOI: 10.1115/1.4001566]

AB National energy security concerns related to liquid transportation fuels have revived interests in alternative liquid fuel sources. Coal-to-fuel technologies feature high efficiency energy conversion and environmental advantages. While a number of factors are driving coal-to-fuel projects forward, there are several barriers to wide commercialization of these technologies such as financial, construction, operation, and technical risks. The purpose of this study is to investigate the performance features of coal-to-fuel systems based on different gasification technologies. The target products are the Fischer-Tropsch synthetic crude and synthetic natural gas. Two types of entrained-flow gasifier-based coal-to-fuel systems are simulated and their performance features are discussed. One is a single-stage water quench cooling entrained-flow gasifier, and another one is a two-stage syngas cooling entrained-flow gasifier. The conservation of energy (first law of thermodynamics) and the quality of energy (second law of thermodynamics) for the systems are both investigated. The results of exergy analysis provide insights about the potential targets for technology improvement. The features of different gasifier-based coal-to-fuel systems are discussed. The results provide information about the research and development priorities in future. [DOI: 10.1115/1.4001572]

AB This paper examines the arrangement of a solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) within a coal gasification cycle, this combination generally being called an integrated gasification fuel cell cycle. This work relies on a previous study performed by the National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) that details thermodynamic simulations of integrated gasification combined cycle (IGCC) systems and considers various gasifier types and includes cases for 90% CO(2) capture (2007, "Cost and Performance Baseline for Fossil Energy Plants, Vol. 1: Bituminous Coal and Natural Gas to Electricity," National Energy Technology Laboratory Report No. DOE/NETL-2007/1281). All systems in this study assume a Conoco Philips gasifier and cold-gas clean up conditions for the coal gasification system (Cases 3 and 4 in the NETL IGCC report). Four system arrangements, cases, are examined. Cases 1 and 2 remove the CO(2) after the SOFC anode. Case 3 assumes steam addition, a water-gas-shift (WGS) catalyst, and a Selexol process to remove the CO(2) in the gas cleanup section, sending a hydrogen-rich gas to the fuel cell anode. Case 4 assumes Selexol in the cold-gas cleanup section as in Case 3; however, there is no steam addition, and the WGS takes places in the SOFC and after the anode. Results demonstrate significant efficiency advantages compared with IGCC with CO(2) capture. The hydrogen-rich case (Case 3) has better net electric efficiency compared with typical postanode CO(2) capture cases (Cases 1 and 2), with a simpler arrangement but at a lower SOFC power density, or a lower efficiency at the same power density. Case 4 gives an efficiency similar to Case 3 but also at a lower SOFC power density. Carbon deposition concerns are also discussed.

TI Mapping Structures that Control Contaminant Migration using Helicopter
Transient Electromagnetic Data
SO JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND ENGINEERING GEOPHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
AB Tooele Army Depot, Tooele County, Utah has developed a hydrogeological model to predict spatio-temporal changes in trichloroethylene contamination originating from sources on the base. Established in 1942 to store World War II supplies, ammunition, and combat vehicles, the Depot is situated in the Basin and Range Providence about 50 km west of Salt Lake City, Utah. In order to better define this hydrogeological framework, a helicopter-borne, time-domain electromagnetic system, known as SkyTEM, was used to survey a 64-km(2) area of the Depot. Areas where carbonate basement is known from prior studies to be at or near the surface were clearly delineated in the SkyTEM data as a high resistivity zone, which begins near the ground surface and continues to the deepest samples at about 200 m. In some places the basement appears to be conductive rather than resistive. In areas where unconsolidated sedimentary cover is known to be thick, such as in the northwest part of the survey area, resistivities were low throughout the sample intervals. The SkyTEM data supports the existence of some, but not all, of the hydrological boundaries hypothesized from potentiometric information. Shallow high-resistivity layers in the east and southeast portions of the survey area appear to be underlain by more conductive sediments, and so should not necessarily be interpreted as shallow bedrock, but possibly as resistive sediments such as dry sand and gravel. One of the most significant results of the survey is the delineation of a narrow unit, interpreted as a paleochannel, at depths greater than 100 m that may be responsible for migration of contamination to the northwest.

AB This paper presents a relative gain array (RGA) analysis of a simulated solid oxide fuel cell/gas turbine plant, based on a multivariate empirical formulation of a 300 kW hybrid system. The HyPer test facility at the National Energy Technology Laboratory, served as the test bed for deriving frequency response data and subsequent multivariable model of a direct-fired, recuperated hybrid cycle plant. Through the modulation of various airflow bypass valves, magnitude and phase data are used to formulate transfer function (TF) equations that describe input/output system interaction. A frequency dependent RGA calculation of the empirical TF matrix provides a means of quantifying the degree of coupling between system inputs and outputs for the configuration studied. Various input/output interaction time scales are obtained to identify frequencies where fully developed system coupling occur. Analysis of the RGA matrix leads to a better understanding of the inherent properties and the hybrid configuration, and can serve as a validating tool to existing analytical RGA calculations of similar types of hybrids.

TI Geodetic constraints from multi-beam laser altimeter crossovers

DE Laser altimeter; Crossover; Orbit determination; Moon; Multi-beam
ID MARS GLOBAL SURVEYOR; NEAR-SHOEMAKER; GRAVITY-FIELD; MOON
AB The round-trip travel time measurements made by spacecraft laser altimeters are primarily used to construct topographic maps of the target body. The accuracy of the calculated bounce point locations of the laser pulses depends on the quality of the spacecraft trajectory reconstruction. The trajectory constraints from Doppler and range radio tracking data can be supplemented by altimetric "crossovers", to greatly improve the reconstruction of the spacecraft trajectory. Crossovers have been used successfully in the past (e.g., Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter on Mars Global Surveyor), but only with single-beam altimeters. The same algorithms can be used with a multi-beam laser altimeter, but we present a method using the unique cross-track topographic information present in the multi-beam data. Those crossovers are especially adapted to shallow (small angle) intersections, as the overlapping area is large, reducing the inherent ambiguities of single-beam data in that situation. We call those "swath crossovers". They prove particularly useful in the case of polar-orbiting spacecraft over slowly rotating bodies, because all the non-polar crossovers have small intersection angles. To demonstrate this method, we perform a simplified simulation based on the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) and its five-beam Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter. We show that swath crossovers over one lunar month can independently, from geometry alone, recover the imposed orbital perturbations with great accuracy (5 m horizontal, < 1 m vertical, about one order of magnitude smaller than the imposed perturbations). We also present new types of constraints that can be derived from the swath crossovers, and designed to be used in a precision orbit determination setup. In future work, we will use such multi-beam altimetric constraints with data from LRO.

Included in the guide are prescriptive recommendations for quality assurance and commissioning; design of the building envelope; fenestration; lighting systems (including electric lighting and daylighting); heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems; building automation and controls; outside air (OA) treatment; and service water heating (SWH). The guide educates, provides practical recommendations for exceeding code minimums, and provides leadership to help design teams and owners produce higher efficiency commercial buildings.

AB Charged particle production has been studied in neutral current deep inelastic ep scattering with the ZEUS detector at HERA using an integrated luminosity of 0.44 fb(-1). Distributions of scaled momenta in the Breit frame are presented for particles in the current fragmentation region. The evolution of these spectra with the photon virtuality, Q(2), is described in the kinematic region 10 < Q(2) < 41000 Ge V-2. Next-to-leading-order and modified leading-log-approximation QCD calculations as well as predictions from Monte Carlo models are compared to the data. The results are also compared to e(+)e(-) annihilation data. The dependences of the pseudorapidity distribution of the particles on Q(2) and on the energy in the gamma p system, W, are presented and interpreted in the context of the hypothesis of limiting fragmentation.

SO JOURNAL OF HIGH ENERGY PHYSICS

ID VIRTUAL COMPTON-SCATTERING; FORWARD PARTON DISTRIBUTIONS;
ELECTROPRODUCTION; ASYMMETRIES; NUCLEON; REGION
AB Polarisation asymmetries are measured for the hard exclusive leptoproduction of real photons from a longitudinally polarised hydrogen target. These asymmetries arise from the deeply virtual Compton scattering and Bethe-Heitler processes. From the data are extracted two asymmetries in the azimuthal distribution of produced real photons about the direction of the exchanged virtual photon: A(UL) with respect to the target polarisation and A(LL) with respect to the product of the beam and target polarisations. Results for both asymmetries are compared to the predictions from a generalised parton distribution model. The sin phi and cos(0 phi) amplitudes observed respectively for the A(UL) and A(LL) asymmetries are compatible with the sizeable predictions from the model. Unexpectedly, a sin(2 phi) modulation in the A(UL) asymmetry with a magnitude similar to that of the sin phi modulation is observed.

AB We solve the CCFM equation numerically in the presence of a boundary condition which effectively incorporates the non-linear dynamics. We retain the full dependence of the unintegrated gluon distribution on the coherence scale, and extract the saturation momentum. The resulting saturation scale is a function of both rapidity and the coherence momentum. In Deep Inelastic Scattering this will lead to a dependence of the saturation scale on the photon virtuality in addition to the usual x(Bj) dependence. At asymptotic energies the interplay between the perturbative non-linear physics, and that of the QCD coherence, leads to an interesting and novel dynamics where the saturation momentum itself eventually saturates. We also investigate various implementations of the "non-Sudakov" form factor. It is shown that the non-linear dynamics leads to almost identical results for different form factors. Finally, different choices of the scale of the running coupling are analyzed and implications for the phenomenology are discussed.

ID RADIATIVE FERMION MASSES; TOP-QUARK MASS; CP CONSERVATION;

GRAVITY; NONEXISTENCE
AB The QCD axion fails to solve the strong CP problem unless all explicit PQ violating, Planck-suppressed, dimension n < 10 operators are forbidden or have exponentially small coefficients. We show that all theories with a QCD axion contain an irreducible source of explicit PQ violation which is proportional to the determinant of the Yukawa interaction matrix of colored fermions. Generically, this contribution is of low operator dimension and will drastically destabilize the axion potential, so its suppression is a necessary condition for solving the strong CP problem. We propose a mechanism whereby the PQ symmetry is kept exact up to n = 12 with the help of the very same flavor symmetries which generate the hierarchical quark masses and mixings of the SM. This "axion flavor protection" is straightforwardly realized in theories which employ radiative fermion mass generation and grand unification. A universal feature of this construction is that the heavy quark Yukawa couplings are generated at the PQ breaking scale.

AB Recent studies demonstrate that ocean-atmosphere forcing by persistent sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies is a primary driver of seasonal-to-interannual hydroclimatic variability, including drought events. Other studies, however, conclude that although SST anomalies influence the timing of drought events, their duration and magnitude over continental regions is largely governed by land-atmosphere feedbacks. Here the authors evaluate the direct influence of SST anomalies on the stochastic characteristics of precipitation and drought in two ensembles of AGCM simulations forced with observed (interannually varying) monthly SST and their climatological annual cycle, respectively. Results demonstrate that ocean-atmosphere forcing contributes to the magnitude and persistence of simulated seasonal precipitation anomalies throughout the tropics but over few mid- and high-latitude regions. Significant autocorrelation of simulated seasonal anomalies over oceans is directly forced by persistent SST anomalies; over land, SST anomalies are shown to enhance autocorrelation associated with land-atmosphere feedbacks. SST anomalies are shown to have no significant influence on simulated drought frequency, duration, or magnitude over most midlatitude land regions. Results suggest that severe and sustained drought events may occur in the absence of persistent SST forcing and support recent conclusions that ocean-atmosphere forcing primarily influences the timing of drought events, while duration and magnitude are governed by other mechanisms such as land-atmosphere feedbacks. Further analysis is needed to assess the potential model dependence of results and to quantify the relative contribution of land-atmosphere feedbacks to the long-term stochastic characteristics of precipitation and drought.

AB Rainfall estimated from the polarimetric prototype of the Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler [WSR-88D (KOUN)] was evaluated using a dense Micronet rain gauge network for nine events on the Ft. Cobb research watershed in Oklahoma. The operation of KOUN and its upgrade to dual polarization was completed by the National Severe Storms Laboratory. Storm events included an extreme rainfall case from Tropical Storm Erin that had a 100-yr return interval. Comparisons with collocated Micronet rain gauge measurements indicated all six rainfall algorithms that used polarimetric observations had lower root-mean-squared errors and higher Pearson correlation coefficients than the conventional algorithm that used reflectivity factor alone when considering all events combined. The reflectivity based relation R(Z) was the least biased with an event-combined normalized bias of -9%. The bias for R(Z), however, was found to vary significantly from case to case and as a function of rainfall intensity. This variability was attributed to different drop size distributions (DSDs) and the presence of hail. The synthetic polarimetric algorithm R(syn) had a large normalized bias of -31%, but this bias was found to be stationary.
To evaluate whether polarimetric radar observations improve discharge simulation, recent advances in Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulation using the Hydrology Laboratory Research Distributed Hydrologic Model (HL-RDHM) were used. This Bayesian approach infers the posterior probability density function of model parameters and output predictions, which allows us to quantify HL-RDHM uncertainty. Hydrologic simulations were compared to observed streamflow and also to simulations forced by rain gauge inputs. The hydrologic evaluation indicated that all polarimetric rainfall estimators outperformed the conventional R(Z) algorithm, but only after their long-term biases were identified and corrected.

AB The PMTs of the CMS Hadron Forward calorimeter were found to generate a large size signal when their windows were traversed by energetic charged particles. This signal, which is due to. Cerenkov light production at the PMT window, could interfere with the calorimeter signal and mislead the measurements. In order to find a viable solution to this problem, the response of four different types of PMTs to muons traversing their windows at different orientations is measured at the H2 beam-line at CERN. Certain kinds of PMTs with thinner windows show significantly lower response to direct muon incidence. For the four anode PMT, a simple and powerful algorithm to identify such events and recover the PMT signal using the signals of the quadrants without window hits is also presented. For the measurement of PMT responses to. Cerenkov light, the Hadron Forward calorimeter signal was mimicked by two different setups in electron beams and the PMT performances were compared with each other. Superior performance of particular PMTs was observed.

AB Designs of stable, low-mass support and cooling structures for intelligent trackers should take into account the additional power dissipation associated with local trigger generation, high speed communications, and power delivery, as well as the spatial distributions of heat sources. For many applications, a modular design can alleviate cooling and support issues and allow parallel fabrication at multiple locations. A proposed design for CMS phase 2 upgrade track trigger formation will be used to illustrate the extent to which design requirements are specific to intelligent tracking, ways in which those design requirements might be met, and implications for local tracker geometry, material selection, structural stability, and the material budget.

AB Langmuir probes are used to study the expansion of a laser plasma into a large (17 m long x 0.6 m diameter) ambient magnetized cylindrical plasma. The expansion is either perpendicular or at 45 degrees to the 300-600 G axial background field. One probe geometry allows data collection close to the ablation surface, inside a diamagnetic bubble formed during the laser plasma expansion. We measure expansion velocities of this diamagnetic cavity and the bulk laser plasma. Additionally, we detect fast ions along the axis of the ambient plasma column when the laser plasma expansion is directed at 45 degrees to the background field. We obtain the fast ion velocity distribution by comparing the measured ion gyroradii to those predicted by Monte Carlo simulations of the ion trajectories in an external magnetic field. Experimental measurement of fast ion velocity distributions can help tune the experimental parameters that are required to drive collisionless shock waves through a laboratory plasma.

AB Here, we report the creation of a single-helix peptide (ATI-5261) that stimulates cellular cholesterol efflux with K m molar efficiency approximating native apolipoproteins. Anti-atherosclerosis activity of ATI-5261 was evaluated in LDLR(-/-) and apolipoprotein (apo)E(-/-) mice similar to 5-7 months of age, following 13-18 weeks on a high-fat Western diet (HFWD). Treatment of fat-fed LDLR(-/-) mice with daily intraperitoneal injections of ATI-5261 (30 mg/kg) for 6 weeks reduced atherosclerosis by 30%, as judged by lesion area covering the aorta (7.9 +/- 2 vs. 11.3 +/- 2.5% control, P = 0.011) and lipid-content of aortic sinus plaque (25 +/- 5.8 vs. 33 +/- 4.9% control, P = 0.014). In apoE(-/-) mice, the peptide administered 30 mg/kg ip on alternate days for 6 weeks reduced atherosclerosis by similar to 45% (lesion area = 15 +/- 7 vs. 25 +/- 8% control, P = 0.00016; plaque lipid-content = 20 +/- 6 vs. 32 +/- 8% control, P < 0.0001). Similar reductions in atherosclerosis were achieved using ATI-5261: POPC complexes. Single intraperitoneal injection of ATI-5261 increased reverse cholesterol transport from macrophage foam-cells to feces over 24-48 h. In summary, relatively short-term treatment of mice with the potent cholesterol efflux peptide ATI-5261 reduced substantial atherosclerosis. This was achieved using an L-amino acid peptide, in the presence of severe hypercholesterolemia/HFWD, and did not require daily injections or formulation with phospholipids when administered via intraperitoneal injection.-Bielicki, J.

AB Progress in understanding the biology of protein fatty acylation has been impeded by the lack of rapid direct detection and identification methods. We first report that a synthetic omega-alkynyl-palmitate analog can be readily and specifically incorporated into GAPDH or mitochondrial 3-hydroxyl-3-methylglutaryl-CoA synthase in vitro and reacted with an azido-biotin probe or the fluorogenic probe 3-azido-7-hydroxycoumarin using click chemistry for rapid detection by Western blotting or flat bed fluorescence scanning. The acylated cysteine residues were confirmed by MS. Second, omega-alkynyl-palmitate is preferentially incorporated into transiently expressed H- or N-Ras proteins (but not non-palmitoylated K-Ras), compared with omega-alkynyl-myristate or omega-alkynyl-stearate, via an alkali sensitive thioester bond. Third, omega-alkynyl-myristate is specifically incorporated into endogenous co- and posttranslationally myristoylated proteins. The competitive inhibitors 2-bromopalmitate and 2-hydroxymyristate prevented incorporation of omega-alkynyl-palmitate and omega-alkynyl-myristate into palmitoylated and myristoylated proteins, respectively. Labeling cells with omega-alkynyl-palmitate does not affect membrane association of N-Ras. Furthermore, the palmitoylation of endogenous proteins including H- and N-Ras could be easily detected using omega-alkynyl-palmitate as label in cultured HeLa, Jurkat, and COS-7 cells, and, promisingly, in mice. The omega-alkynyl-myristate and -palmitate analogs used with click chemistry and azido-probes will be invaluable to study protein acylation in vitro, in cells, and in vivo.-Yap, M. C., M. A.

AB We review here the recently emerging relationship between epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and breast cancer stem cells (BCSC), and provide analyses of published data on human breast cancer cell lines, supporting their utility as a model for the EMT/BCSC state. Genome-wide transcriptional profiling of these cell lines has confirmed the existence of a subgroup with mesenchymal tendencies and enhanced invasive properties ('Basal B'/Mesenchymal), distinct from subgroups with either predominantly luminal ('Luminal') or mixed basal/luminal ('Basal A') features (Neve et al. Cancer Cell, 2006). A literature-derived EMT gene signature has shown specific enrichment within the Basal B subgroup of cell lines, consistent with their over-expression of various EMT transcriptional drivers. Basal B cell lines are found to resemble BCSC, being CD44(high)CD24(low). Moreover, gene products that distinguish Basal B from Basal A and Luminal cell lines (Basal B Discriminators) showed close concordance with those that define BCSC isolated from clinical material, as reported by Shipitsin et al. (Cancer Cell, 2007). CD24 mRNA levels varied across Basal B cell lines, correlating with other Basal B Discriminators. Many gene products correlating with CD24 status in Basal B cell lines were also differentially expressed in isolated BCSC. These findings confirm and extend the importance of the cellular product of the EMT with Basal B cell lines, and illustrate the value of analysing these cell lines for new leads that may improve breast cancer outcomes. Gene products specific to Basal B cell lines may serve as tools for the detection, quantification, and analysis of BCSC/EMT attributes.

ID SELF-ASSEMBLED MONOLAYERS; NANOTRIBOLOGY; LITHOGRAPHY; SILICON; OXIDE
AB Nanofabrication using arrays of modified atomic force microscopy (AFM) tips can drastically reduce feature sizes and increase data storage densities. Additionally, AFM experiments are valuable tools for characterizing the tribological properties of surfaces. In order to maximize the potential of nanofabrication techniques, it is necessary to understand fully the interactions between AFM tips and substrates, particularly when the latter is compliant and more damage-prone. To address this issue, we have carried out extensive molecular dynamics simulations of the nanotribological properties of self-assembled alkylsilane monolayers (SAMs) on amorphous silica with a realistic model of an AFM tip. Our simulations demonstrate that for fully physisorbed SAMs, even low load contacts can damage the SAM and cause material transfer to the probe tip. This effect, which is commonly ignored, can have a strong effect on the interpretation of experimental measurements. Partial chemisorption of the SAM lowers, but does not remove the possibility of damage. [DOI: 10.1115/1.4001660]

AB A major concern with medical and dental biomaterials is colonization of these materials with microbial biofilms. One material processed using chemical vapor deposition and other conventional top-down nanomanufacturing technologies that has recently been considered for use in preventing growth of microorganisms is the nanocrystalline diamond. Nanocrystalline diamond coatings have been evaluated for use as coatings on medical implants (e. g., hip prostheses) and surgical tools due to their low coefficient of friction, high corrosion resistance, high hardness, and high wear resistance. In this study, the microstructural properties and microorganism interaction behavior of nanocrystalline diamond coatings were examined. A device for examining microbial biofilms known as a CDC biofilm reactor was used to examine the interaction between a fluorescent microorganism, Pseudomonas fluorescens, and nanocrystalline diamond coatings in a continuous perfusion environment. Biofilm formation was evident on the nanocrystalline diamond surface after 24 h. No correlation between grain size or morphology and cell density was observed; large variations in P. fluorescens growth on the coatings were observed, even for the samples with similar grain sizes and morphologies. The results of this study suggest that nanocrystalline diamond coatings do not prevent Pseudomonas fluorescens biofilm development in a continuous perfusion environment. Additional treatment of the nanocrystalline diamond coatings with antimicrobial and/or antifouling agents would be necessary to prevent formation of microbial biofilms. The development of novel continuous flow technologies for evaluating the growth of microbial biofilms on biomaterials will provide a better understanding of biomaterial-microorganism interaction and will enable the creation of enhanced antimicrobial biomaterials.

AB A study was undertaken to simulate the thinning behavior of titanium 6Al-4V alloy sheet during Superplastic Forming and to evaluate the feasibility of controlling thinning in areas of interest with Friction Stir Processing (FSP) of the material. The commercially available Finite Element Analysis software ABAQUS was used to execute these simulations. Material properties of the parent sheet and the Friction Stir Processed regions input into the models were determined experimentally by elevated temperature tensile testing. The results of these simulations were compared to experimental test results via Superplastically Forming representative aerospace parts and analytical computations for validation. It was found that numerical simulations can be used to predict the thin-out characteristics of superplastically formed titanium parts and the thin-out can be controlled in desired areas by FSP, locally, prior to forming.

AB The purpose of this study was to develop a specialized friction stir welding process for superplastic grade aluminum alloy 5083-SP and titanium alloy 6Al-4V, in thickness of 1.5-4 mm, such that the butt welded nugget would have equal superplastic forming (SPF) characteristics as the parent sheet material. The concept of using tailored blanks for the SPF process is proposed which will allow the joining of multiple pieces to fabricate much larger monolithic components than has been possible in the past. Another benefit of using tailored blanks for SPF applications was found to be a more closely matched blank shape relative to the plan size of the SPF forming die. However, shape of the tailored blanks is critical in SPF of a component. An example of this might be the case where a polygon-shaped blank might work in order to reduce the amount of material used, but a rectangular blank is currently used because a tailor made blank with superplastic joints was not found to be technologically feasible. Upon development of a suitable FSW process for each material, the technology was applied to fabricate full scale test components representing a generic jet engine nacelle Lipskin.

AB The deformation behavior of amorphous selenium near its glass transition temperature (31 degrees C) has been investigated by uniaxial compression and nanoindentation creep tests. Cylindrical specimens compressed at high temperatures and low strain rates deform stably into barrel-like shapes, while tests at low temperatures and high strain rates lead to fragmentation. These results agree well with stress exponent and kinetic activation parameters extracted from nanoindentation creep tests using a similarity analysis. The dependence of the deformation modes on temperature and strain rate can be understood as a consequence of material instability and strain localization in rate-dependent solids.

AB BaTiO3 thin films were prepared on metallic foil substrates using chemical solution deposition. The impact of A to B site cation ratios on the phase assemblage and microstructural and dielectric properties was investigated by characterizing a sample set that includes stoichiometric BaTiO3 and 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 mol% excess BaO. Each composition was subjected to a high-temperature anneal step with maximum dwell temperatures of 1000, 1100, and 1200 degrees C for 20 h. Excess barium concentrations greater than 3% lead to dramatic grain growth and average grain sizes exceeding 1 mu m. Despite the large deviations from stoichiometry and the 20 h dwell time at temperature, x-ray diffraction, and high-resolution electron microscopy analysis were unable to detect secondary phases until films with 5% excess barium were annealed to 1200 degrees C. Thin films with 3% excess barium were prepared on copper substrates and annealed at 1060 degrees C, the practical limit for copper. This combination of BaO excess and annealing temperature produced an average lateral grain size of 0.8 mu m and a room-temperature permittivity of 4000. This is in comparison to a permittivity of 1800 for stoichiometric material prepared using identical conditions. This work suggests metastable solubility of BaO in BaTiO3 that leads to enhanced grain growth and large permittivity values. This technique provides a new solid-state means of achieving grain growth in low thermal budget systems.

AB Polymer gels have potential use for a wide variety of applications, primarily due to the ability to tailor the gel properties by varying several material parameters. While substantial attention has focused on water-based hydrogels, the use of these materials is limited due to a narrow operational temperature range. This report describes a nonaqueous polymer gel, composed of a cross-linked polybutadiene network swollen with low volatility polymer plasticizers. Thermal, mechanical, and adhesive characterization illustrated that the gels exhibit performance over an extremely broad temperature range (-60-70 degrees C). Solvent quality and loading played a critical role in the operational temperature window with small solvent solubility parameter deviations dramatically reducing the operational temperature range. In addition, the processing conditions had a large impact on the gel mechanical properties. As a result, it is important to consider the influence of processing conditions and solvent quality when tailoring polymer gels for practical applications.

AB The microstructure of Pt-modified gamma'-Ni3Al + gamma-Ni coating on CMSX-4 single-crystal superalloy has been investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Cross-sectional TEM analyses showed the presence of precipitates in the coating. This precipitate was identified as the hexagonal topologically close-packed (TCP) mu phase with lattice parameters a = 0.473 nm and c = 2.565 nm. The energy-dispersive x-ray (EDX) spectrum of the mu phase suggested a refractory element rich compound comprising the elements Re, W, and Co. Twin domains parallel to (001) were found in the mu phase. The mechanisms of the mu phase and twinning formation were discussed.

AB The glucuronide transporter GusB, the product of the gusB gene from Escherichia coli, is responsible for detoxification of metabolites. In this study, we successfully expressed GusB homologously in E. coli and investigated its oligomeric state in n-dodecyl-beta-d-maltoside (DDM) detergent solution. Evidence for a pentameric state with a Stokes radius of 57 +/- A 2 for the purified GusB protein in DDM solution was obtained by analytical size-exclusion HPLC. The elution peak corresponding to pentameric GusB is commonly seen in elution profiles in the different buffer systems examined over a wide pH range. Hence, it is likely that GusB resides in the membrane as a pentamer. Stability studies with different incubation periods with the typical lipids, such as dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine, and total E. coli phospholipids, as the representatives of both phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, show some clues to two-dimensional crystallization of GusB with lipids.

AB In this paper, we introduce a multifunctional tunable microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) optical bandpass filter that can continuously and independently tune the center wavelength and the passband spectral width. The filter function is achieved by dispersing the input light on a MEMS spatial light modulator (SLM) that is implemented with gold-coated mirrors microassembled on a MEMS platform. The mirrors are actuated by electrostatic combdrives that are bidirectional and have a maximum stable displacement of 44 mu m in both directions for a total range of 88 mu m. By actuating the SLM, the 1-dB bandwidth of the filter can be continuously tuned from 0.1 to 1.3 nm, and the 3-dB bandwidth can be tuned from 0.3 to 1.5 nm. In addition, the center wavelength can be fine tuned by actuating the movable blocking mirrors and coarsely tuned over a large spectral range by rotating the grating.

AB Preparation and sectioning of bacterial spores by focused ion beam and subsequent high resolution secondary ion mass spectrometry analytical imaging is demonstrated. Scanning transmission electron microscopy mode imaging in a scanning electron microscope is used to show that the internal structure of the bacterial spore can be preserved during focused ion beam sectioning and can be imaged without contrast staining. Ion images of the sections show that the internal elemental distributions of the sectioned spores are preserved. A rapid focused ion beam top-sectioning method is demonstrated to yield comparable ion images without the need for sample trenching and section lift-out. The lift-out and thinning method enable correlated transmission electron microscopy and high resolution secondary ion mass spectrometry analyses. The top-cutting method is preferable if only secondary ion mass spectrometry analyses are performed because this method is faster and yields more sample material for analysis; depth of useful sample material is similar to 300 nm for top-cut sections versus similar to 100 nm for electron-transparent sections.

AB A new computer code has been developed to automatically extract quantitative twin statistics from electron backscatter diffraction data. The new code is an improvement upon previous codes in that it handles materials of any crystal symmetry, type I, Type II and compound twins, and general stress states. Moreover, accuracy of the results has been greatly improved. In addition, twin statistics including number, area fraction, twin thickness and twinning dependencies on orientation, grain size and neighbourhood effects can be routinely analysed. The new code has been applied to scan data from deformed magnesium, zirconium and uranium, and can potentially be used for any twinning material for which reliable electron backscatter diffraction results can be obtained.

AB The development of stable biomolecular scaffolds that can tolerate environmental extremes has considerable potential for industrial and defense-related applications. However, most natural proteins are not sufficiently stable to withstand non-physiological conditions. We have recently engineered the de novo designed Top7 protein to specifically recognize the glycoprotein CD4 by insertion of an eight-residue loop. The engineered variant exhibited remarkable stability under chemical and thermal denaturation conditions. In the present study, far-UV CD spectroscopy and explicit-solvent MD simulations are used to investigate the structural stability of Top7 and the engineered variant under extreme conditions of temperature and pH. Circular dichroism measurements suggest that the engineered variant Top7(CB1), like Top7, retains its structure at high temperatures. Changes in CD spectra suggest that there are minor structural rearrangements between neutral and acidic environments for both proteins but that these do not make the proteins less stable at high temperatures. The anti-parallel beta-sheet is well conserved within the timescale simulated whereas there is a decrease of helical content when low pH and high-temperature conditions are combined. Concerted alanine mutations along the alpha-helices of the engineered Top7 variant did not revert this trend when at pH 2 and 400 K. The structural resilience of the anti-parallel beta-sheet suggests that the protein scaffold can accommodate varying sequences. The robustness of the Top7 scaffold under extreme conditions of pH and temperature and its amenability to production in inexpensive bacterial expression systems reveal great potential for novel biotechnological applications.

AB We have studied in detail the carbon and nitrogen bonding environments in nitrogen-doped single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The samples consisting of long strands of N-doped SWCNTs were synthesized using an aerosol assisted chemical vapor deposition method involving benzylamine-ethanol-ferrocene solutions. The studied samples were produced using different benzylamine concentrations in the solutions, and exhibited a maximum concentration of ca. 0.3%at of N, determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). In general, we observed that the ratio between substitutional nitrogen and the pyridine-like bonded nitrogen varied upon the precursor composition. Moreover, we have observed that the sp(2)-like substitutional configuration of the C-N bond does not exceed the 50% of the total N atomic incorporation. In addition, we have characterized all these samples using Raman spectroscopy and electron microscopy.

AB Optical properties and structural aspects of AsxS100-x glasses from visible to terahertz wavelengths were explored. A series of annealed. bulk AsxS100-x glasses (x=30 to 42) were made and their refractive indices determined at terahertz, infrared, and visible frequencies using a quasi-optical backwards wave oscillator spectrometer for terahertz measurements combined with a prism coupler for visible and infrared measurements. It was found that the refractive index at all frequencies increases with arsenic composition up to 40 at.% arsenic and then decreases with additional arsenic. The structure in X-ray diffraction patterns supports the notion of a minimum volume at 40 at.%, while the average covalent coordination number indicates that the rigidity percolation threshold is reached there. At arsenic concentrations >40 at.%, the network becomes over-constrained, and the molar volume increases. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI Cluster formation of silica particles in glass batches during melting
SO JOURNAL OF NON-CRYSTALLINE SOLIDS

DT Article
DE Glass Formation; Silica; Melting; Borosilicates; Diffusion
ID DISSOLUTION; TANKS
AB The study describes the incorporation of solid silica into molten glass during glass-batch melting as a function of the grain size in the range from 5 to 275 mu m. Whereas tiny grains formed a bubbly melt, very large grains formed slowly dissolving clusters. Silica grains are forced to clusters by rising bubbles. The impact of the silica grain size on the glass-forming melt viscosity, overall density, thermal conductivity, and compositional homogeneity, as well as the consequences of these effects on glass processing in melting furnaces, is discussed. A high-alumina borosilicate glass for nuclear waste vitrification was chosen for the study, but the authors believe that the observed behaviors also occur in the melting of commercial batches.

AB Experimental confirmation of various grain scattering theories exist but there are still outstanding questions concerning the characterization of microstructure using ultrasound. In this study, high purity niobium serves as a model material devoid of extrinsic scattering centers (e.g., voids, precipitates, second phase particles etc.) A range of microstructures were obtained by annealing in ultrahigh vacuum at different temperatures (600-800A degrees C) after routine cold-rolling and recrystallization heat treatment. Ultrasonic attenuation is measured as a function of a frequency for each sample. For the samples with an intermediate grain size (typically similar to 50 mu m), attenuation follows a power law dependence on frequency with an exponent of n similar to 1.6, which is close to the prediction, n=2, of classical Stochastic scattering theory. However, quantitative comparison shows that the observed attenuation is higher than predicted by the classical theory. The Stanke-Kino unified grain scattering theory may provide an explanation for the lower frequency dependence than traditional theories predict, though it still under predicts the magnitude of the attenuation. In any event, the resulting empirical relations provide a useful approach for practical grain size measurement with an acceptable level of uncertainty. The effect of a layered microstructure typical of some sheets/plates is discussed.

AB We present a spectrally accurate numerical method for finding nontrivial time-periodic solutions of nonlinear partial differential equations. The method is based on minimizing a functional (of the initial condition and the period) that is positive unless the solution is periodic, in which case it is zero. We solve an adjoint PDE to compute the gradient of this functional with respect to the initial condition. We include additional terms in the functional to specify the free parameters, which in the case of the Benjamin-Ono equation, are the mean, a spatial phase, a temporal phase, and the real part of one of the Fourier modes at t=0.
We use our method to study global paths of nontrivial time-periodic solutions connecting stationary and traveling waves of the Benjamin-Ono equation. As a starting guess for each path, we compute periodic solutions of the linearized problem by solving an infinite dimensional eigenvalue problem in closed form. We then use our numerical method to continue these solutions beyond the realm of linear theory until another traveling wave is reached. By experimentation with data fitting, we identify the analytical form of the solutions on the path connecting the one-hump stationary solution to the two-hump traveling wave. We then derive exact formulas for these solutions by explicitly solving the system of ODEs governing the evolution of solitons using the ansatz suggested by the numerical simulations.

AB We study the chemical erosion of hydrogen-supersaturated carbon due to bombardment by hydrogen isotopes H, D, and T at energies of 1-30 eV using classical molecular dynamics simulations. The chemical structure at the hydrogen-saturated interface (the distribution of terminal hydrocarbon moieties, in particular) shows a weak dependence on the mass of the impinging atoms. However, the sputtering yields increase considerably with increasing projectile mass. We analyze the threshold energies of chemical sputtering reaction channels and show that they are nearly mass independent, as expected from elementary bond-breaking chemical reactions involving hydrocarbons. Chemical sputtering yields for D impact are compared with new experimental data. Good agreement is found for small hydrocarbons but the simulations overestimate the production of large hydrocarbons for energies larger than 15 eV. We present a thorough analysis of the dependence of our simulations on the parameters of the bombardment schemes and discuss open questions and possible avenues for development.

TI The addition of silicon carbide to surrogate nuclear fuel kernels made

SO JOURNAL OF NUCLEAR MATERIALS

DT Article
ID ZIRCONIA MICROSPHERES; URANIUM; CERIA; PH
AB The US Department of Energy plans to use the internal gelation process to make tristructural isotropic (TRISO)-coated transuranic (TRU) fuel particles. The focus of this work is to develop TRU fuel kernels with high crush strengths, good ellipticity, and adequately dispersed silicon carbide (Sic). The submicron SiC particles in the TRU kernels are to serve as getters for excess oxygen and to potentially sequester palladium, rhodium, and ruthenium, which could damage the coatings during irradiation. Zirconium oxide microspheres stabilized with yttrium were used as surrogates because zirconium and TRU microspheres from the internal gelation process are amorphous and encounter similar processing problems. The hardness of SiC required modifications to the experimental system that was used to make uranium carbide kernels. Suitable processing conditions and equipment changes were identified so that the SiC could be homogeneously dispersed in gel spheres for subsequent calcination into strong spherical kernels.

AB High temperature thermal property data for structural materials used in existing Light Water Reactors (LWRs) are limited. Often, values extrapolated from available data, as recommended in the literature, differ significantly. To reduce uncertainties in predictions relying upon extrapolated data for LWR vessel and penetration materials, high temperature tests were completed on SA533 Grade B, Class 1 (SA533-B1) low alloy steel, Stainless Steel 304 (SS304), and Inconel 600 using material property measurement systems available in the High Temperature Test Laboratory (HTTL) at the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). Properties measured include thermal expansion, specific heat capacity, and thermal diffusivity for temperatures up to 1200 degrees C. From these results, thermal conductivity and density were calculated. Results show that, in some cases, previously recommended values for these materials differ significantly from measured values at high temperatures. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Objective: To study the prevalence of beryllium sensitization (BeS) and chronic beryllium disease (CBD) in a cohort of workers from a nuclear weapons research and development facility. Methods: We evaluated 50 workers with BeS with medical and occupational histories, physical examination, chest imaging with high-resolution computed tomography (N = 49), and pulmonary function testing. Forty of these workers also underwent bronchoscopy for bronchoalveolar lavage and transbronchial biopsies. Results: The mean duration of employment at the facility was 18 years and the mean latency ( from first possible exposure) to time of evaluation was 32 years. Five of the workers had CBD at the time of evaluation ( based on histology or high-resolution computed tomography); three others had evidence of probable CBD. Conclusions: These workers with BeS, characterized by a long duration of potential Be exposure and a long latency, had a low prevalence of CBD.

AB The influence of the substrate temperature and Mg doping on the morphological and optical properties of catalyst-free GaN nanowires grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy on Si(111) has been investigated in a large temperature range between 665 degrees C and 785 degrees C. The density and wire sizes in Mg-doped nanowires are found to change with substrate temperature in a similar way as undoped nanowires. Between 725 degrees C and 785 degrees C a trimodal size distribution and an increase of the wire density from 5.0x10(9) cm(-2) to 9.5x10(9) cm(-2) were observed. Transmission electron microscopy indicates that the upper parts of the nanowires are free of structural defects. Raman spectroscopy measurements confirm a high crystalline quality of doped wires, with a line width of the E-2(H) of 3.3 cm(-1) for samples grown at T-s=785 degrees C. Photoluminescence measurements show a strong influence of Mg on the emission properties, namely the increase of the donor-acceptor pair emission and its phonon replicas.

AB Despite years of study on failure prediction, it remains an open problem, especially in large-scale systems composed of vast amount of components. In this paper, we present a dynamic meta-learning framework for failure prediction. It intends to not only provide reasonable prediction accuracy, but also be of practical use in realistic environments. Two key techniques are developed to address technical challenges of failure prediction. One is meta-learning to boost prediction accuracy by combining the benefits of multiple predictive techniques. The other is a dynamic approach to dynamically obtain failure patterns from a changing training set and to dynamically extract effective rules by actively monitoring prediction accuracy at runtime. We demonstrate the effectiveness and practical use of this framework by means of real system logs collected from the production Blue Gene/L systems at Argonne National Laboratory and San Diego Supercomputer Center. Our case studies indicate that the proposed mechanism can provide reasonable prediction accuracy by forecasting up to 82% of the failures, with a runtime overhead less than 1.0 min.

AB Objective To examine the variation in survival in infants with atrioventricular septal defects (AVSD) with demographic factors and clinical characteristics, including the presence of Down syndrome.
Study design We selected infants with all types of AVSD with Down syndrome (n = 177) and without Down syndrome (n = 161), born between Jan 1, 1979, and Dec 31, 2003 and identified through the Metropolitan Atlanta Congenital Defects Program (MACDP). Infants were classified by the complexity of their cardiac defects and presence of major non-cardiac malformations. Deaths (n = 111) were identified through 2004 with linkage with state vital records and the National Death Index. Kaplan-Meier survival probabilities and adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) were calculated in relation to demographic and clinical characteristics.
Results Children with AVSD and Down syndrome had a similar overall survival probability (70%) as those without Down syndrome (69%). Mortality was higher in children with a complex AVSD (adjusted HR = 7.0; 95% CI, 3.1-15.5) and in children with >= 2 major non-cardiac malformations (adjusted HR = 3.4; 95% CI, 1.8-6.5) and was lower in children in the 1992 to 2003 birth cohort (adjusted HR = 0.6; 95% CI, 0.4-0.998).
Conclusions Down syndrome was not a prognostic factor. Our findings might be helpful in assessing the long-term prognosis of infants with AVSD. (J Pediatr 2010; 156: 994-1000).

AB Ternary uranium molybdenum alloys are being examined for use as dispersion and monolithic nuclear fuels in research and test reactors. In this study, three such ternary alloys, with compositions U-10Nb-4Zr, U-8Mo-3Nb, and U-7Mo-3Ti in wt.%, were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with high angle annular dark field (HAADF) imaging via scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM). These alloys were homogenized at 950 degrees C for 96 h and were expected to be single-phase bcc-gamma-U. However, upon examination, it was determined that despite homogenization, each of the alloys contained a small volume fraction precipitate phase. Through SEM and XRD, it was confirmed that the matrix retained the bcc-gamma-U phase. TEM specimens were prepared using site-specific focused ion beam ( FIB) in situ lift out (INLO) technique to include at least one precipitate from each alloy. By electron diffraction, the precipitate phases for the U-10Nb-4Zr, U-8Mo-3Nb, and U-7Mo-3Ti alloys were identified as bcc-(Nb, Zr), bcc-(Mo,Nb), and bcc-(Mo,Ti) solid solutions, respectively. The composition and phase information collected in this study was then used to construct ternary isotherms for each of these alloys at 950 degrees C.

AB This paper presents several challenges to nuclear many-body theory and our understanding of the stability of nuclear matter. In order to achieve this, we present five different cases, starting with an idealized toy model. These cases expose problems that need to be understood in order to match recent advances in nuclear theory with current experimental programs in low-energy nuclear physics. In particular, we focus on our current understanding, or lack thereof, of many-body forces, and how they evolve as functions of the number of particles. We provide examples of discrepancies between theory and experiment and outline some selected perspectives for future research directions.

AB In the field of energy density functionals (EDFs) used in nuclear structure and dynamics, one of the unsolved issues is the stability of the functional. Numerical issues aside, some EDFs are unstable with respect to particular perturbations of the nuclear ground-state density. The aim of this contribution is to raise questions about the origin and nature of these instabilities, the techniques used to diagnose and prevent them, and the domain of density functions in which one should expect a nuclear EDF to be stable.

Which nuclear states are most impacted by the coupling to the scattering continuum? What should be the most important steps in developing the theory that will truly unify nuclear structure and nuclear reactions? The common denominator of these questions is the continuum shell-model approach to bound and unbound nuclear states, nuclear decays and reactions.

At the same time, operation in the hot on mode via alpha channeling increases the effective fusion reactivity.

AB This paper compares the important mechanical properties and the electrical conductivities from room temperature to 800 degrees C of four LaCoO3 based cobaltite compositions with 0, 20, 40 and 55% Ca2+ ions substituted on the A site of the perovskite structure respectively. Ca2+ doped lanthanum cobaltite materials are strong candidates for use as cathodes in lower temperature solid oxide fuel cells operating at or below 800 degrees C. Among these four cobaltite compositions, two (LaCoO3 and La0.8Ca0.2CoO3) were found to be phase pure materials, whereas the remaining two compositions (La0.6Ca0.4CoO3 and La0.45Ca0.55CoO3\) contained precipitation of secondary phases such as CaO and Co3O4. The mechanical properties of the four compositions, in terms of Young's modulus, four-point bending strength and fracture toughness measurements were measured at both room temperature and 800 degrees C. At room temperature, doping with Ca2+ was found to substantially increase the mechanical properties of the cobaltites, whereas at 800 degrees C the pure LaCoO3 composition exhibited higher modulus and strength values than La0.8Ca0.2CoO3.

AB This study utilizes nanoindentation to investigate and measure creep properties of a barium calcium alumino-silicate glass-ceramic used for solid oxide fuel cell seals (SOFCs). Samples of the glass-ceramic seal material were aged for 5, 50, and 100 h to obtain different degrees of crystallinity. Instrumented nanoindentation was performed on the samples with different aging times at different temperatures to investigate the strain rate sensitivity during inelastic deformation. The temperature dependent behavior is important since SOFCs operate at high temperatures (800-1000 degrees C). Results show that the samples with higher crystallinity were more resistant to creep, and the creep compliance tended to decrease with increasing temperature, especially with further aged samples.

AB The present Study with the detailed H-1-Li-6 cross polarization NMR analysis confirms the formation of a ternary compound, (Mg1-xLi2x)B-2, during ball milling of LiH+(1/2)MgB2 at room temperature. The Li-6 sites in (Mg1-xLi2x)B-2 exhibit spinning sidebands (SSBs), whereas the Li-6 sites in LiH do not. The SSBs and the very short spin-lattice relaxation time manifested by Li-6 sites in (Mg1-xLi2x)B-2 indicate that the Li ions in (Mg1-xLi2x)B-2 are located between the layered boron structures and close to Mg ions. The formation of (Mg1-xLi2x)B-2 explains the previous observation that the LiH + (1/2)MgB2 mixture ball-milled effectively has a greatly enhanced hydriding kinetics at temperatures below the melting point of LiBH4.

AB We report on the origin of the Surface structural disordering in graphite anodes induced by lithium intercalation and deintercalation processes. Average Raman spectra of graphitic anodes reveal that cycling at potentials that correspond to low lithium concentrations in Li(x)C (0 <= x<0.16) is responsible for most of the structural damage observed at the graphite surface. The extent of surface structural disorder in graphite is significantly reduced for the anodes that were cycled at potentials where stage-1 and stage-2 compounds (x > 0.33) are present. Electrochemical impedance spectra show larger interfacial impedance for the electrodes that were fully delithiated during cycling as compared to electrodes that were cycled at lower potentials (U < 0. 15 V vs. Li/Li(+)). Steep Li(+) surface-bulk concentration gradients at the surface of graphite during early stages of intercalation processes, and the inherent increase of the Li(x)C d-spacing tend to induce local stresses at the edges of graphene layers, and lead to the breakage of C-C bonds. The exposed graphite edge sites react with the electrolyte to (re)form the SEI layer, which leads to gradual degradation of the graphite anode, and causes reversible capacity loss in a lithium-ion battery.

AB The entropy changes (AS) in various cathode and anode materials, as well as in complete Li-ion batteries, were measured using an electrochemical thermodynamic measurement system (ETMS). LiCoO(2). has a much larger entropy change than electrodes based on LiNi(x)Co(y)Mn(z)O(2) and LiFePO(4), while lithium titanate based anodes have lower entropy change compared to graphite anodes. The reversible heat generation rate was found to be a significant portion of the total heat generation rate. The appropriate combinations of cathode and anode were investigated to minimize reversible heat generation rate across the 0-100% state of charge (SOC) range. In addition to screening for battery electrode materials with low reversible heat, the techniques described in this paper can be a useful engineering tool for battery thermal management in stationary and transportation applications.

AB Supercapacitors use nanoporous electrodes to store large amounts of charge on their high surface areas, and use the ions in electrolytes to carry charge into the pores. Their high power density makes them a potentially useful complement to batteries. However, ion transport through long, narrow channels still limits power and efficiency in these devices. Proper design can mitigate this. Current collector geometry must also be considered once this is done. Here, De Levie's model for porous electrodes is applied to quantitatively predict device performance and to propose optimal device designs for given specifications. Effects unique to nanoscale pores are considered, including that pores may not have enough salt to fully charge. Supercapacitors are of value for electric vehicles, portable electronics, and power conditioning in electrical grids with distributed renewable sources, and that value will increase as new device fabrication methods are developed and proper design accommodates those improvements. Example design outlines for vehicle applications are proposed and compared. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), characterized by chronic airflow limitation, is a serious public health concern. In this study, we used proton nuclear magnetic resonance (H-1 NMR) spectroscopy to identify and quantify metabolites associated with lung function in COPD. Plasma and urine were collected from 197 adults with CORD and from 195 without CORD. Samples were assayed using a 600 MHz NMR spectrometer, and the resulting spectra were analyzed against quantitative spirometric measures of lung function. After correcting for false discoveries and adjusting for covariates (sex, age, smoking) several spectral regions in urine were found to be significantly associated with baseline lung function. These regions correspond to the metabolites trigonelline, hippurate and formate. Concentrations of each metabolite, standardized to urinary creatinine, were associated with baseline lung function (minimum p-value = 0.0002 for trigonelline). No significant associations were found with plasma metabolites. Urinary hippurate and formate are often related to gut microflora. This could suggest that the microbiome varies between individuals with different lung function. Alternatively, the associated metabolites may reflect lifestyle differences affecting overall health. Our results will require replication and validation, but demonstrate the utility of NMR metabolomics as a screening tool for identifying novel biomarkers of pulmonary outcomes.

AB Methylphenidate (MP) and amphetamine (AMPH) are the most frequently prescribed medications for the treatment of attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Both drugs are believed to derive their therapeutic benefit by virtue of their dopamine (DA)-enhancing effects, yet an explanation for the observation that some patients with ADHD respond well to one medication but not to the other remains elusive. The dopaminergic effects of MP and AMPH are also thought to underlie their reinforcing properties and ultimately their abuse. Polymorphisms in the human gene that codes for the DA D4 receptor (D4R) have been repeatedly associated with ADHD and may correlate with the therapeutic as well as the reinforcing effects of responses to these psychostimulant medications. Conditioned place preference (CPP) for MP, AMPH and cocaine were evaluated in wild-type (WT) mice and their genetically engineered littermates, congenic on the C57Bl/6J background, that completely lack D4Rs (knockout or KO). In addition, the locomotor activity in these mice D4 receptor KO and WT mice showed CPP and increased locomotor activity differentially modulates the CPP responses to MP, AMPH and cocaine. While the D4R genotype affected CPP responses to MP (high dose only) and AMPH (low dose only) it had no effects on cocaine. Inasmuch as CPP is considered an indicator of sensitivity to reinforcing responses to drugs these data suggest a significant but limited role of D4Rs in modulating conditioning responses to MP and AMPH. In the locomotor test, D4 receptor KO mice displayed attenuated increases in AMPH-induced locomotor activity whereas responses to cocaine and MP did not differ. These results suggest distinct mechanisms for D4 receptor modulation of the reinforcing (perhaps via attenuating dopaminergic signalling) and locomotor properties of these stimulant drugs. Thus, individuals with D4 receptor polymorphisms might show enhanced reinforcing responses to MP and AMPH and attenuated locomotor response to AMPH.

AB Line positions, intensities, Lorentz self- and N-2-broadened half-width coefficients have been measured for (P)Q(3), (P)Q(2), (P)Q(1), (R)Q(0), (R)Q(1), (R)Q(2), and (R)Q(3) sub-band transitions in the nu(9) fundamental band of (C2H6)-C-12. A multispectrum nonlinear least-squares fitting technique was used to fit up to 17 high-resolution (similar to 0.00156 cm(-1)), room temperature absorption spectra of pure (99.99% chemical purity) natural sample of ethane and lean mixtures of the high-purity ethane diluted with N-2. A Bruker IFS 120HR Fourier transform spectrometer located at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL), in Richland, Washington was used to record the data. A standard Voigt line shape was assumed to fit all the data since no line mixing or other non Voigt line shapes were required to fit any of the spectra used in the analysis. Short spectral intervals (similar to 2-2.5 cm(-1)) of all 17 spectra covering a specific (P)Q or (R)Q sub-band were fit simultaneously. For the first time in an ethane band, pressure-broadened half-width coefficients were determined for the torsional-split components. However, for better reliability of the retrieved coefficients for the weaker components (transitions with large intensity ratios of 4:1 or 3:1 for most K levels between the strong and weak components), constraints were used such that the half-width coefficients of both torsional-split components for a given J were identical for a specific broadening gas. No pressure-induced shift coefficients were necessary to fit the spectra to their noise level. The present study revealed for the first time the dependence of self- and N-2-broadened half-width coefficients upon the J, K quantum numbers of the transitions in ethane. A number of transitions belonging to the nu(9)+nu(4)-nu(4) and the nu(9)+2 nu(4)-2 nu(4) hot bands were also observed in the fitted regions and measurements were made when possible.

AB Under the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)'s EMRAS (Environmental Modelling for Radiation Safety) programme, activity concentrations of Co-60, Sr-90, Cs-137 and H-3 in Perch Lake at Atomic Energy of Canada Limited's Chalk River Laboratories site were predicted, in freshwater primary producers, invertebrates, fishes, herpetofauna and mammals using eleven modelling approaches.
Comparison of predicted radionuclide concentrations in the different species types with measured values highlighted a number of areas where additional work and understanding is required to improve the predictions of radionuclide transfer. For some species, the differences could be explained by ecological factors such as trophic level or the influence of stable analogues. Model predictions were relatively poor for mammalian species and herpetofauna compared with measured values, partly due to a lack of relevant data. In addition, concentration ratios are sometimes under-predicted when derived from experiments performed under controlled laboratory conditions representative of conditions in other water bodies.

AB There is now general acknowledgement that there is a requirement to demonstrate that species other than humans are protected from anthropogenic releases of radioactivity. A number of approaches have been developed for estimating the exposure of wildlife and some of these are being used to conduct regulatory assessments. There is a requirement to compare the outputs of such approaches against available data sets to ensure that they are robust and fit for purpose. In this paper we describe the application of seven approaches for predicting the whole-body ((90)Sr, (137)Cs, (241)Am and Pu isotope) activity concentrations and absorbed dose rates for a range of terrestrial species within the Chernobyl exclusion zone. Predictions are compared against available measurement data, including estimates of external dose rate recorded by thermoluminescent dosimeters attached to rodent species. Potential reasons for differences between predictions between the various approaches and the available data are explored.

AB Polarized Raman spectroscopy was used to investigate the room-temperature phonon characteristics of a series of rare-earth arsenate (REAsO4, RE = Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Tm, Yb, and Lu) single crystals. The Raman data were interpreted in a systematic manner based on the known tetragonal zircon structure of these compounds, and assignments and correlations were made for the observed bands. We found that the wavenumbers of the internal modes of the AsO4 tetrahedron increased with increasing atomic number. This increase seems to be correlated to the contraction of the RE-O bond length. For three out of four lattice wavenumbers observed, this tendency was not nearly so marked as in the case of the internal mode wavenumber. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB Problem: Drilling overhead into concrete or metal ceilings is a strenuous task done by construction workers to hang ductwork, piping, and electrical equipment. The task is associated with upper body pain and musculoskeletal disorders. Previously, we described a field usability evaluation of a foot lever and inverted drill press intervention devices that were compared to the usual method for overhead drilling. Both interventions were rated as inferior to the usual method based on poor setup time and mobility. Method: Three new interventions, which differed on the design used for aligning the drilling column to vertical, were compared to the usual method for overhead drilling by commercial construction workers (n = 16). Results: The usual method was associated with the highest levels of regional body fatigue and the poorest usability ratings when compared to the three interventions. Conclusion: Overall, the 'Collar Base' intervention design received the best usability ratings. Impact on Industry: Intervention designs developed for overhead drilling may reduce shoulder fatigue and prevent subsequent musculoskeletal disorders. These designs may also be useful for other overhead work such as lifting and supporting materials (e.g., piping, ducts) that are installed near the ceiling. Workplace health and safety interventions may require multiple rounds of field-testing prior to achieving acceptable usability ratings by the end users.

AB The full LaCo1 -xRhxO3 solid solution was investigated utilizing structural, electrical transport, magnetic, and thermal conductivity characterization Strong evidence for at least some conversion of Rh3+/Co3+ to Rh4+/Co2+. is found in both structural and electrical transport data. The crystal structure is that of a rhombohedrally distorted perovskite over the range 0.0 <= x <= 0.1. The common orthorhombic distortion of the perovskite structure is found over the range 0 2 <= x <= 1.0. A crossover of all three orthorhombic cell edges occurs at x=0 5 giving the appearance of a cubic structure, which actually remains orthorhombic The octahedra in the orthorhombic structure must be distorted for x values less than 0 5, and the observed distortion suggests orbital ordering for Co2+ Electrical resistivity measurements as a function of temperature show semiconducting-like regions for all compositions There is a steady Increase in electrical resistivity as the Rh content increases. Large positive thermopower values are generally obtained above 475 K With increasing Rh substitution there is a decrease in thermal conductivity, which slowly rises with increasing temperature due to increased electrical conductivity. The electronic part of the thermal conductivity is suppressed significantly upon Rh substitution A thermoelectric figure-of-merit (ZT) of about 0 075 has been achieved for LaCo0 5Rh0 O-5(3) at 775K, and is expected to reach 015 at 1000 K.

AB To determine the solubility product of PuPO4(cr, hyd.)and the complexation constants of Pu(III) with phosphate and EDTA, the solubility of PuPO4(cr, hyd.) was investigated as a function of: (1) time and pH (varied from 1.0 to 12.0), and at a fixed 0.00032 mol.L-1 phosphate concentration; (2) NaH2PO4 concentrations varying from 0.0001 mol.L-1 to 1.0 mol.L-1 and at a fixed pH of 2.5; (3) time and pH (varied from 1.3 to 13.0) at fixed concentrations of 0.00032 mol.L-1 phosphate and 0.0004 mol.L-1 or 0.002 mol.L-1 Na(2)H(2)EDTA; and (4) Na(2)H(2)EDTA concentrations varying from 0.00005 mol.L-1 to 0.0256 mol.L-1 at a fixed 0.00032 mol.L-1 phosphate concentration and at pH values of approximately 3.5, 10.6, and 12.6. A combination of solvent extraction and spectrophotometric techniques confirmed that the use of hydroquinone and Na2S2O4 helped maintain the Pu as Pu(III). The solubility data were interpreted using the Pitzer and SIT models, and both provided similar values for the solubility product of PuPO4(cr, hyd.) and for the formation constant of PuEDTA(-). The log(10) of the solubility product of PuPO4(cr, hyd.) [PuPO4(cr, hyd.) reversible arrow Pu3+ + PO4-4] was determined to be -(24.42 +/- 0.38). Pitzer modeling showed that phosphate interactions with Pu3+ were extremely weak and did not require any phosphate complexes [e.g., PuPO4(aq), PuH2PO42+, Pu(H2PO4)(2)(+), Pu(H2PO4) 3(aq), and Pu(H2PO4)(4)(-)] as proposed in existing literature, to explain the experimental solubility data. SIT modeling, however, required the inclusion of PuH(2)PO4(2+) to explain the data in high NaH2PO4 concentrations; this illustrates the differences one can expect when using these two different chemical models to interpret the data. Of the Pu(III)- EDTA species, only PuEDTA- was needed to interpret the experimental data over a large range of pH values (1.3-12.9) and EDTA concentrations (0.00005-0.256 mol.L-1). Calculations based on density functional theory support the existence of PuEDTA(-) (with prospective stoichiometry as Pu(OH2)(3)EDTA(-)) as the chemically and structurally stable species. The log(10) value of the complexation constant for the formation of PuEDTA(-) [Pu3+ + EDTA(4-) reversible arrow PuEDTA(-)] determined in this study is -20.15 +/- 0.59. The data also showed that PuHEDTA(aq), Pu(EDTA)(4)(5-), Pu(EDTA)(HEDTA)(4-), Pu( EDTA)(H(2)EDTA)(3-), and Pu(EDTA)(H(3)EDTA)(2-), although reported in the literature, have no region of dominance in the experimental range of variables investigated in this study.

AB Background/Objective: To report over a 10-year period the statewide prevalence and incidence of medically attended adverse health conditions in people with new traumatic spinal cord injury (TSCI).
Design: Retrospective cohort study.
Methods: (a) Identified all new TSCI cases discharged alive from statewide acute care hospitals, 1996 to 2000, using ICD-9-CM methodology. (b) Followed cases from 1996 to 2005 to quantify medically attended health conditions documented during emergency department visits, acute care hospitalizations, and outpatient hospital visits. (c) Used the life table method to calculate the prevalence and incidence of health conditions. (d) Examined Cox proportional hazard ratio of mortality by gender controlling for age and TSCI severity.
Results: Nine hundred eighty-eight residents (257 women, 731 men) with TSCI were alive 90 days after discharge from acute care hospitalization from 1996 to 2000. Nine hundred twenty-three (251 female, 672 male) (93.4%) residents had an observed medically attended adverse health condition in the 10-year follow-up period. The most prevalent classes of diseases and disorders were (a) muscle and connective tissue, (b) renal and urinary, (c) digestive, (d) circulatory, (e) respiratory, (f) endocrine/nutritional/metabolic, and (g) infectious. Incidence of new injury was 29.0% for males and 26.9% for females. During the follow-up period, 49 women (19%) and 104 men (14%) died.
Conclusions: People with TSCI experience diverse adverse health conditions in the 10 years after initial injury. An interdisciplinary health care provider team approach to allocating resources and implementing countermeasures to prevent or limit occurrence of these conditions is vital to these patients' continuum of care.

AB We investigate a network growth model in which the genealogy controls the evolution. In this model, a new node selects a random target node and links either to this target node, or to its parent, or to its grandparent, etc; all nodes from the target node to its most ancient ancestor are equiprobable destinations. The emerging random ancestor tree is very shallow: the fraction g(n) of nodes at distance n from the root decreases super-exponentially with n, gn = e(-1)/(n-1)!. We find that a macroscopic hub at the root coexists with highly connected nodes at higher generations. The maximal degree of a node at the nth generation grows algebraically as N-1/beta n, where N is the system size. We obtain the series of nontrivial exponents which are roots of transcendental equations: beta(1) congruent to 1.351 746, beta(2) congruent to 1.682 201, etc. As a consequence, the fraction p(k) of nodes with degree k has an algebraic tail, p(k) similar to k(-gamma), with gamma = beta(1) + 1 = 2.351 746.

AB Computer models simulating a physical process are used in many areas of science. Due to the complex nature of these codes it is often necessary to approximate the code, which is typically done using a Gaussian process. In many situations the number of code runs available to build the Gaussian process approximation is limited. When the initial design is small or the underlying response surface is complicated this can lead to poor approximations of the code output. In order to improve the fit of the model, sequential design strategies must be employed. In this paper we introduce two simple distance based metrics that can be used to augment an initial design in a batch sequential manner. In addition we propose a sequential updating strategy to an orthogonal array based Latin hypercube sample. Vie show via various real and simulated examples that the distance metrics and the extension of the orthogonal array based Latin hypercubes work well in practice. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB Direct experimental probes of the mechanical response of the biopolymer framework of nacre extracted from the shell of the gastropod Haliotis rufescens have been performed. Both monotonic tensile, and time dependent relaxation, tests revealed that the tissue comprising the interlamellar layers within nacre obeyed a simple constitutive model conforming to the visco-elastic standard linear solid, with time constants in the range tau = 140 +/- 4 s. We conclude that the behavior is essentially that imparted by the chitin core of these layers. Interestingly we find that the chitin network of the core appears to be connected over multiple CaCO(3) tiles. A simple composite model is formulated and used to interpret the observed behavior.

AB We studied welded and glassy nonwelded ignimbrites of the Bandelier Tuff cut by the Pajarito fault system to examine the influence of primary lithology and structure on fault damage-zone characteristics. Our work supports previous studies that indicate welding and resulting rock strength are first-order controls on the type of fault-zone structure that forms in high porosity ignimbrites. However, inherited mechanical anisotropy is the most significant control on spatial variations in fault-zone width and orientation of structures for a given throw. Cooling joints in welded ignimbrite localize strain, producing a narrower damage zone than that in glassy nonwelded ignimbrite. The joints also control the orientations of discrete fractures formed during faulting, so fractures show the same patterns inside and outside damage zones, which we attribute to local reorientation of stresses adjacent to joints. In contrast, deformation bands formed in relatively isotropic, glassy nonwelded ignimbrite exhibit conjugate sets oblique to the Pajarito fault, consistent with left-lateral extension across a pre-existing structure. Where footwall and hanging wall damage-zone widths can be compared in welded ignimbrite, they reflect greater hanging wall deformation, consistent with near-surface faulting. These observations collectively record 3D strain of a physically heterogeneous system. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB High-density (similar to 8 g/cm3) heavy metal oxide glasses composed of PbO, Bi(2)O(3), and Ga(2)O(3) were produced, and refractivity parameters (refractive index and density) were computed and measured. Refractive indices were measured at six discrete wavelengths from 0.633 to 10.59 mu m using a prism coupler, and data were fitted to the Sellmeier expression. Optical basicity was computed using three models-average electronegativity, ionic-covalent parameter, and energy gap-and the results were used to compute oxygen polarizability and subsequently the refractive index. Single oscillator energy and dispersion energy were calculated from experimental indices and from oxide energy parameters. The predicted glass index dispersion based on oxide oscillator parameters underestimates the measured index by only 3%-4%. The predicted glass index from optical basicity, based on oxide energy gaps, underpredicts the index at 0.633 mu m by only 2%. The calculated glass energy gap based on this optical basicity overpredicts the experimental optical gap by 6%-10%. Thus, we have shown that the density, the refractive index in the visible, and the energy gap can be reasonably predicted using only composition, optical basicity values for the constituent oxides, and partial molar volume coefficients. The relative contributions of the oxides to the total polarizability were assessed, providing an additional insight into controlling the refractivity of high-index glasses.

DT Article
ID PRECURSORS; OXIDATION; SICN
AB We report the semiconductor behavior of polymer-derived ceramics at high temperatures extending up to 1300 degrees C, far above that of any known material. The conductivity depends strongly on the N/O molar ratio, reaching its highest value when the ratio is approximately unity. The temperature dependence of the conductivity for these specimens, sigma, shows good agreement with the Mott's variable range hopping (VRH) mechanism for three-dimensional conduction in amorphous materials as described by sigma proportional to exp - (T(0)/T)(1/4). The comparison yields the following range of values for the density of states, N(E) = 4.9 x 10(17)-5.9 x 10(18) (eV.cm(3))(-1), hopping energy, W = 0.017-0.047 eV, and hopping distance, R = 13.4-21.8 nm. The charge carrier mobilities predicted by the VRH model are in excellent agreement with the values measured in the Hall experiment. The long hopping distances are an unusual feature of this ceramic, suggesting longrange wave functions that may arise from clusters of SiCNO atoms that can exist in the form of a nanodomain network. Specimens that are either rich in oxygen (at the expense of nitrogen) or rich in nitrogen, have conductivities that are four to eight orders of magnitude lower than the similar to equimolar compositions. One oxygen-rich specimen shows band-gap controlled semiconductivity with an activation energy of 1.1 eV. Taken together, these results suggest that the electronic properties of the SiCNO ceramics are controlled by complex interactions between C and other atoms (Si, N, and O). These results are at variance with the simple picture where "free carbon'' is assumed to determine the electronic behavior.

AB A liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS)-based approach for characterizing the degree of nitration and oxidation of intact calmodulin (CaM) has been used to resolve 250 CaM oxiforms using only 500 ng of protein. The analysis was based on high-resolution data of the intact CaM isoforms obtained by Fourier-transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICR MS) coupled with an on-line reversed-phase LC separation. Tentative identifications of post-translational modifications (PTMs), such as oxidation or nitration, have been assigned by matching observed protein mass to a database containing all theoretically predicted oxidation products of CaM and verified through a combination of tryptic peptide information (generated from bottom-up analyses) and on-line collisionally induced dissociation (CID) tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) at the intact protein level. The reduction in abundance and diversity of oxidatively modified CaM (i.e., nitrated tyrosines and oxidized methionines) induced by macrophage activation has been explored and semiquantified for different oxidation degrees (i.e., no oxidation, moderate, and high oxidation). This work demonstrates the power of the top-down approach to identify and quantify hundreds of combinations of PTMs for single protein target such as CaM and implicate competing repair and peptidase activities to modulate cellular metabolism in response to oxidative stress.

AB This study investigates how meeting domestic energy production targets for both fossil and renewable fuels may affect future water demand. It combines projections of energy production developed by the U.S. Department of Energy with estimates of water consumption on a per-unit basis (water-consumption coefficients) for coal, oil, gas, and biofuels production, to estimate and compare the domestic freshwater consumed. Although total domestic freshwater consumption is expected to increase by nearly 7% between 2005 and 2030, water consumed for energy production is expected to increase by nearly 70%, and water consumed for biofuels (biodiesel and ethanol) production is expected to increase by almost 250%. By 2030, water consumed in the production of biofuels is projected to account for nearly half of the total amount of water consumed in the production of all energy fuels. Most of this is for irrigation, and the West North Central Region is projected to consume most of this water in 2030. These findings identify an important potential future conflict between renewable energy production and water availability that warrants further investigation and action to ensure that future domestic energy demand can be met in an economically efficient and environmentally sustainable manner.

AB Time reversal is an oft-used technique to probe and measure a quantum system. In particular, it is key for some theoretical information approaches to quantum criticality like fidelity decay. Here proposed is how to reverse the dynamics of cold bosonic atoms in an optical lattice in the regime described by the Bose-Hubbard model. The proposed experiment uses proven techniques-a linear phase imprint on the lattice, and a change in magnetic field to tune the boson-boson scattering length through a Feshbach resonance. The sensitivity of quantum dynamics across the insulator-superfluid quantum phase transition of the Bose-Hubbard model is studied, and sensing applications of dynamic reversals such as measuring the intensity of external potentials (e.g., gravity) is discussed.

ID RELAXATION
AB We report on the superconducting characteristics of the filled skutterudites LaPt4Ge12 (Tc = 8: 3 K) and PrPt4Ge12 (T-c 7.9 K) by Ge-73-nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) at a zero field. In PrPt4Ge12, the nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate (73)(1/T-1) has revealed a coherence peak just below T-c, indicating that the superconductivity of PrPt4Ge12 is accounted for in terms of the conventional BCS regime. The result was consistently reproduced by not only an isotropic s-wave gap model but also an anisotropic s-wave gap model with a point node. In the conventional superconductor LaPt4Ge12, the coherence peak in (73)(1/T-1) is markedly suppressed owing to some damping effect of quasiparticles. We note that the T(c)s of LaPt4Ge12 and PrPt4Ge12 being higher than that of other RPt4Ge12 may be attributed to the larger density of states, not to some local anharmonic phonon modes derived from the possible rattling of R ions.

DE diagnostics and control; powder flame spray; torch hardware
AB Powder flame spray is a flexible, straightforward process. Particulate feed stock is heated and accelerated using an oxy-fuel flame. Liquid feed stock droplets impact the substrate, deform, and solidify to form a coating. Like other spray processes, coating microstructure and properties are directly related to particle velocity and temperature at the time of impact. Many controllable process inputs affect particle temperature and particle velocity. Data, from a series of designed experiments, exploring these factors and quantifying their significance are reviewed. These data show that multiple process inputs, especially torch hardware, can significantly affect particle temperature and velocity distributions in the powder flame spray process.

AB The eradication of HIV-1 will likely require novel clinical approaches to purge the reservoir of latently infected cells from a patient. We hypothesize that this therapy should target a wide range of latent integration sites, act effectively against viral variants that have acquired mutations in their promoter regions, and function across multiple HIV-1 subtypes. By using primary CD4(+) and Jurkat cell-based in vitro HIV-1 latency models, we observe that single-agent latency reactivation therapy is ineffective against most HIV-1 subtypes. However, we demonstrate that the combination of two clinically promising drugs-namely, prostratin and suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA)-overcomes the limitations of single-agent approaches and can act synergistically for many HIV-1 subtypes, including A, B, C, D, and F. Finally, by identifying the proviral integration position of latent Jurkat cell clones, we demonstrate that this drug combination does not significantly enhance the expression of endogenous genes nearest to the proviral integration site, indicating that its effects may be selective.

AB While the simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-infected rhesus monkey is an important animal model for human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) infection of humans, much remains to be learned about the evolution of the humoral immune response in this model. In HIV-1 infection, autologous neutralizing antibodies emerge 2 to 3 months after infection. However, the ontogeny of the SIV-specific neutralizing antibody response in mucosally infected animals has not been defined. We characterized the kinetics of the autologous neutralizing antibody response to the transmitted/founder SIVmac251 using a pseudovirion-based TZM-bl cell assay and monitored env sequence evolution using single-genome amplification in four rhesus animals that were infected via intrarectal inoculations. We show that the SIVmac251 founder viruses induced neutralizing antibodies at 5 to 8 months after infection. Despite their slow emergence and low titers, these neutralizing antibodies selected for escape mutants that harbored substitutions and deletions in variable region 1 (V1), V2, and V4 of Env. The neutralizing antibody response was initially focused on V4 at 5 to 8 months after infection and then targeted V1/V2 and V4 by 16 months. These findings reveal a striking delay in the development of neutralizing antibodies in SIVmac-infected animals, thus raising questions concerning the suitability of SIVmac251 as a challenge strain to screen AIDS vaccines that elicit neutralizing antibodies as a means to prevent virus acquisition. They also illustrate the capacity of the SIVmac quasispecies to modify antigenic determinants in response to very modest titers of neutralizing antibodies.

AB Metagenomics and a panmicrobial microarray were used to examine eight live-attenuated viral vaccines. Viral nucleic acids in trivalent oral poliovirus (OPV), rubella, measles, yellow fever, varicella-zoster, multivalent measles/mumps/rubella, and two rotavirus live vaccines were partially purified, randomly amplified, and pyrosequenced. Over half a million sequence reads were generated covering from 20 to 99% of the attenuated viral genomes at depths reaching up to 8,000 reads per nucleotides. Mutations and minority variants, relative to vaccine strains, not known to affect attenuation were detected in OPV, mumps virus, and varicella-zoster virus. The anticipated detection of endogenous retroviral sequences from the producer avian and primate cells was confirmed. Avian leukosis virus (ALV), previously shown to be noninfectious for humans, was present as RNA in viral particles, while simian retrovirus (SRV) was present as genetically defective DNA. Rotarix, an orally administered rotavirus vaccine, contained porcine circovirus-1 (PCV1), a highly prevalent nonpathogenic pig virus, which has not been shown to be infectious in humans. Hybridization of vaccine nucleic acids to a panmicrobial microarray confirmed the presence of endogenous retroviral and PCV1 nucleic acids. Deep sequencing and microarrays can therefore detect attenuated virus sequence changes, minority variants, and adventitious viruses and help maintain the current safety record of live-attenuated viral vaccines.

TI Estimation of the Initial Viral Growth Rate and Basic Reproductive

AB During primary infection, the number of HIV-1 particles in plasma increases rapidly, reaches a peak, and then declines until it reaches a set point level. Understanding the kinetics of primary infection, and its effect on the establishment of chronic infection, is important in defining the early pathogenesis of HIV. We studied the viral dynamics of very early HIV-1 infection in 47 subjects identified through plasma donation screening. We calculated how fast the viral load increases and how variable this parameter is among individuals. We also estimated the basic reproductive ratio, the number of new infected cells generated by an infectious cell at the start of infection when target cells are not limiting. The initial viral doubling time had a median of 0.65 days with an interquartile range of 0.56 to 0.91 days. The median basic reproductive ratio was 8.0 with an interquartile range of 4.9 to 11. In 15 patients, we also observed the postpeak decay of plasma virus and found that the virus decay occurred at a median rate of 0.60 day(-1), corresponding to a half-life of 1.2 days. The median peak viral load was 5.8 log(10) HIV-1 RNA copies/ml, and it was reached 14 days after the virus was quantifiable with an assay, with a lower limit of detection of 50 copies/ml. These results characterize the early plasma viral dynamics in acute HIV infection better than it has been possible thus far. They also better define the challenge that the immune response (or therapeutic intervention) has to overcome to defeat HIV at this early stage.

AB The wetting behavior of ethylene adsorbed on MgO(100) was investigated from 83-135 K using high resolution volumetric adsorption isotherms. The results are compared to ethylene adsorption on graphite, a prototype adsorption system, in an effort to gain further insight into the forces that drive the observed film growth. Layering transitions for ethylene on MgO(100) are observed below the bulk triple point of ethylene (T = 104.0 K). The formation of three discrete adlayers is observed on the MgO(100) surface; onset of the second and third layers occurs at 79.2 +/- 1.3 K and 98.3 +/- 0.9 K, respectively. Thermodynamic quantities such as differential enthalpy and entropy, heat of adsorption, and isosteric heat of adsorption are determined and compared to the previously published values for ethylene on graphite. The average area occupied by a ethylene molecule on MgO(100) is 22.6 +/- 1.1 angstrom(2) molecule(-1). The locations of two phase transitions are identified (i.e., layer critical temperatures at T-c2((n=1)) at 108.6 +/- 1.7 K and T-c2((n=2)) at 116.5 +/- 1.2 K) and a phase diagram is proposed. Preliminary neutron diffraction measurements reveal evidence of a monolayer solid with a lattice constant of similar to 4.2 angstrom. High resolution INS measurements show that the onset to dynamical motion and mono layer melting take place at similar to 35 K and similar to 65 K, respectively. The data reported here exhibit a striking similarity to ethylene on graphite which suggests that molecule-molecule in play an important role in determining the physical properties and growth of molecularly thin ethylene films.

AB Thin films of poly(3-hexylthiophene)-Noek-polylactide block copolymer exhibiting ordered lamellar morphology have been selectively etched to produce structured films that could be used in fabrication of idealized bulk heterojunctions for organic or hybrid solar energy devices. Etched poly(3-hexylthiophene) Films, after being rinsed in water to remove degraded polylactide fragments, were dried using various drying approaches that reduce or alleviate surface tension forces generated during liquid evaporation from the film. As emphasized by atomic force microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and emission photoluminescence, a reduction in domain collapse leads to improved molecular ordering in the plane perpendicular to the substrate and enhanced photoluminescence quenching when paired with fullerene Cm hydroxide electron acceptors.

AB We report a facile synthesis of large-area homogeneous three-dimensional (3D) A a nanostructures on Au-supported polyaniline (PANI) membranes through a direct chemical reduction of metal ions by PANI. The citric acid absorbed on the Au nuclei that are prefabricated on PAN I membranes directs Ag nanoaprticles (AgNPs) to self-assemble into 3D Ag nanosheet structures. The fabricated hybrid metal nanostructures display uniform surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) responses throughout the whole surface area, with an average enhancement factor of 10(6)-10(7). The nanocavities formed by the stereotypical stacking of these Ag nanosheets and the junctions and gaps between two neighboring AgNPs are believed to be responsible for the strong SERS response upon plasmon absorption. These homogeneous metal nanostructure decorated PANI membranes can be used as highly efficient SERS substrates for sensitive detection of chemical and biological analytes.

AB A series of cobalt-containing redox couples, based on [Co(1,10-phenanthroline)(3)](ClO4)(2) and its derivatives, were prepared for use as regenerators/shuttles in dye-sensitized solar cells featuring modified TiO2 photoelectrodes. Surface modification and trap-state passivation of the TiO2 nanoparticle film electrodes were accomplished via atomic layer deposition of an ultrathin alumina coating. Electron lifetimes were then extracted from open-circuit voltage decay measurements. Cells employing alumina barrier/passivation layers exhibited higher open-circuit voltages as shuttles with more positive redox potentials were used, with the Co(5-nitro-phen)(3)(3+ 2+) couple exhibiting the highest V-oc (0.844 V). Analysis of the open-circuit voltages and electron lifetimes indicate Marcus normal-region behavior for back electron transfer front the TiO2 photoanode to these compounds.

AB This article discusses an experimental approach for measuring the properties of individual powder particles sized between 25 mu m and 100 mu m of four common very hard ceramic materials: tungsten carbide, alumina, boron carbide, and silicon carbide. Fused silica is also investigated as the reference material. Experiments on the individual powder particles were performed to a depth of 100 nm and critically compared against consolidated compacts of the same materials. To draw a correlation between the instrumented indentation measurement and their dynamic properties, this investigation exploits the low modulus to hardness ratio of these materials, whether tested as powder or in consolidated form. The indentation experiments, as they were performed in this study, lie within a regime that allows the use of the expanding cavity model to provide a more rigorous mechanical analysis to the results. Through the use of the expanding cavity model framework, this article concludes by discussing the plausibility of a relationship between the hardness of the individual powder particles, static and dynamic strength, and the high rate deformation behavior of compacts fabricated from these hard ceramic powders.

AB Carbide precipitation from the steel matrix during long-term high-temperature exposure can adversely affect the fracture toughness and high-temperature creep resistance of materials with implications on the performance of power plant components. In the present work, carbide evolution in 2.25Cr-1Mo steel after long-term aging during service was investigated. Boiler pipe samples of this steel were removed from a supercritical water-cooled coal-fired power plant after service times of 17 and 28 years and a mean operational temperature of 810 K (537 A degrees C). The carbide precipitation and coarsening effects were studied using the carbon extraction replica technique followed by analysis using transmission electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The carbides extracted using an electrolytic technique were also analyzed using X-ray diffraction to evaluate phase transformations of the carbides during long-term service. Small ball punch and Vickers hardness were used to evaluate the changes in mechanical performance after long-term aging during service.

AB This article presents a plug-based microfluidic system to dispense nanoliter-volume plugs of lipidic cubic phase (LCP) material and subsequently merge the LCP plugs with aqueous plugs. This system was validated by crystallizing membrane proteins in lipidic mesophases, including LCP. This system allows for accurate dispensing of LCP material in nanoliter volumes, prevents inadvertent phase transitions that may occur due to dehydration by enclosing LCP in plugs, and is compatible with the traditional method of forming LCP material using a membrane protein sample, as shown by the successful crystallization of bacteriorhodopsin from Halobacterium salinarum. Conditions for the formation of LCP plugs were characterized and presented in a phase diagram. This system was also implemented using two different methods of introducing the membrane protein: (1) the traditional method of generating the LCP material using a membrane protein sample and (2) post LCP-formation incorporation (PLI), which involves making LCP material without protein, adding the membrane protein sample externally to the LCP material, and allowing the protein to diffuse into the LCP material or into other lipidic mesophases that may result from phase transitions. Crystals of bacterial photosynthetic reaction centers from Rhodobacter sphaeroides and Blastochloris viridis were obtained using PLI. The plug-based, LCP-assisted microfluidic system, combined with the PLI method for introducing membrane protein into LCP, should be useful for minimizing consumption of samples and broadening the screening of parameter space in membrane protein crystallization.

AB Actinide materials demonstrate a wide variety of interesting physical properties in both bulk and nanoscale form. To better understand these materials, a broad array of microscopy techniques have been employed, including transmission electron microscopy (TEM), electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDXS), high-angle annular dark-field imaging (HAADF), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), wavelength dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDXS), electron back scattered diffraction (EBSD), scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and scanning transmission X-ray microscopy (STXM). Here these techniques will be reviewed, highlighting advances made in the physics, materials science, chemistry, and biology of actinide materials through microscopy. Construction of a spin-polarized TEM will be discussed, considering its potential for examining the nanoscale magnetic structure of actinides as well as broader materials and devices, such as those for computational magnetic memory.

ID EXIT-WAVE RECONSTRUCTION; FOCUS-VARIATION; PHASE RETRIEVAL
AB Image alignment is essential for image processing methods such as through-focus exit-avefunction reconstruction and image averaging in high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Relative image displacements exist in any experimentally recorded image series due to the specimen drifts and image shifts, hence image alignment for correcting the image displacements has to be done prior to any further image processing. The image displacement between two successive images is determined by the correlation function of the two relatively shifted images. Here it is shown that more accurate image alignment can be achieved by using an appropriate aperture to filter the high-frequency components of the images being aligned, especially for a crystalline specimen with little non-periodic information. For the image series of crystalline specimens with little amorphous, the radius of the filter aperture should be as small as possible, so long as it covers the innermost lattice reflections. Testing with an experimental through-focus series of sill 1 01 images, the accuracies of image alignment with different correlation functions are compared with respect to the error functions in through-focus exit-wavefunction reconstruction based on the maximum-likelihood method. Testing with image averaging over noisy experimental images from graphene and carbon-nanotube samples, clear and sharp crystal lattice fringes are recovered after applying optimal image alignment.

We find that improvements in both signal level and detector resolution improve the precision of quantitative analyses, but that signal level is the most important. We also find that if the rank of the PCA solution is not chosen properly, it may be possible to improperly fit the underlying data and degrade the accuracy of results. Additionally, precision is degraded in the case when too many factors are included in the model.

AB A method of generating more efficient RF from a soliton generating nonlinear lumped element, transmission line (NLETL) is presented. A bipolar input is coupled into an NLETL, which is DC. biased to the amplitude of the input pulse. The input evolves into a soliton containing pulse that would take twice as much power to produce from a unipolar input. Simulations demonstrate that, this method increases the maximum RF generating efficiency of an NLETL from 113 for a unipolar input pulse to 213 for a bipolar input pulse to a biased line, in agreement with simple analytical arguments.

AB Atomic-scale instabilities, in which atomic bonds are broken and reform as the body shifts into a lower-energy configuration, are responsible for a wide range of material behaviours of interest. Building upon previous work, we outline here the construction of a criterion for the prediction of such instabilities. The criterion is implemented within the context of the well-known embedded atom method family of interatomic potentials. We present two examples of the application of this criterion: oriented cavitation in an FCC crystal due to uniform triaxial stretching and dislocation nucleation due to nanoindentation of the (0 0 1) face of an FCC crystal.

AB The objective of this paper is to develop further a framework for computationally modeling microstructurally small fatigue crack growth in AA 7075-T651 (Bozek et al 2008 Modelling Simul. Mater. Sci. 16 065007). The focus is on the nucleation event, when a crack extends from within a second-phase particle into a surrounding grain, since this has been observed to be an initiating mechanism for fatigue crack growth in this alloy. It is hypothesized that nucleation can be predicted by computing a non-local nucleation metric near the crack front. The hypothesis is tested by employing a combination of experimentation and finite element modeling in which various slip-based and energy-based nucleation metrics are tested for validity, where each metric is derived from a continuum crystal plasticity formulation. To investigate each metric, a non-local procedure is developed for the calculation of nucleation metrics in the neighborhood of a crack front. Initially, an idealized baseline model consisting of a single grain containing a semi-ellipsoidal surface particle is studied to investigate the dependence of each nucleation metric on lattice orientation, number of load cycles and non-local regularization method. This is followed by a comparison of experimental observations and computational results for microstructural models constructed by replicating the observed microstructural geometry near second-phase particles in fatigue specimens. It is found that orientation strongly influences the direction of slip localization and, as a result, influences the nucleation mechanism. Also, the baseline models, replication models and past experimental observation consistently suggest that a set of particular grain orientations is most likely to nucleate fatigue cracks. It is found that a continuum crystal plasticity model and a non-local nucleation metric can be used to predict the nucleation event in AA 7075-T651. However, nucleation metric threshold values that correspond to various nucleation governing mechanisms must be calibrated.

AB Hat1 was the first histone acetyltransferase identified; however, its biological function is still unclear. In this report, it is shown for the first time that human Hat1 has two isoforms. Isoform a has 418 amino acids (aa) and is localized exclusively in the nuclear matrix of normal human keratinocytes (NHKs). Isoform b has 334 aa and is located in the cytoplasm, the nucleoplasm, attached to the chromatin and to the nuclear matrix. Immunohistochemical analyses revealed that the bulk of Hat1 is confined to the nucleus, with much lesser amounts in the cytoplasm. Cells undergoing mitotic division have an elevated amount of Hat1 compared to those that are non-mitotic. Senescent cells, however, exhibit a higher concentration of Hat1 in the cytoplasm compare to proliferating cells and the amount of Hat1 in the nucleus decreases with the progression of senescence. NHKs exposed to hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) or to a beam of high mass and energy ion particles displayed bright nuclear staining for Hat1, a phenotype that was not observed in NHKs exposed to gamma-rays. We established that the enhanced nuclear staining for Hat1 in response to these treatments is regulated by the PI3K and the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathways. Our observations clearly implicate Hat1 in the cellular response assuring the survival of the treated cells.

AB The landscape of the human genome consists of millions of short islands of conservation that are 100% conserved across multiple vertebrate genomes (termed "bricks"), the majority of which are located in noncoding regions. Several hundred thousand bricks are deeply conserved reaching the genomes of amphibians and fish. Deep phylogenetic conservation of noncoding DNA has been reported to be strongly associated with the presence of gene regulatory elements, introducing bricks as a proxy to the functional noncoding landscape of the human genome. Here, we report a significant overrepresentation of bricks in the promoters of transcription factors and developmental genes, where the high level of phylogenetic conservation correlates with an increase in brick overrepresentation. We also found that the presence of a brick dictates a predisposition to evolutionary constraint, with only 0.7% of the amniota brick central nucleotides being diverged within the primate lineage-an 11-fold reduction in the divergence rate compared with random expectation. Human single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) data explains only 3% of primate-specific variation in amniota bricks, thus arguing for a widespread fixation of brick mutations within the primate lineage and prior to human radiation. This variation, in turn, might have been utilized as a driving force for primate- and hominoid-specific adaptation. We also discovered a pronounced deviation from the evolutionary predisposition in the human lineage, with over 20-fold increase in the substitution rate at brick SNP sites over expected values. In addition, contrary to typical brick mutations, brick variation commonly encountered in the human population displays limited, if any, signatures of negative selection as measured by the minor allele frequency and population differentiation (F-statistical measure) measures. These observations argue for the plasticity of gene regulatory mechanisms in vertebrates-with evidence of strong purifying selection acting on the gene regulatory landscape of the human genome, where widespread advantageous mutations in putative regulatory elements are likely utilized in functional diversification and adaptation of species.

AB The mitochondrial genomes of seed plants are unusually large and vary in size by at least an order of magnitude. Much of this variation occurs within a single family, the Cucurbitaceae, whose genomes range from an estimated 390 to 2,900 kb in size. We sequenced the mitochondrial genomes of Citrullus lanatus (watermelon: 379,236 nt) and Cucurbita pepo (zucchini: 982,833 nt)-the two smallest characterized cucurbit mitochondrial genomes-and determined their RNA editing content. The relatively compact Citrullus mitochondrial genome actually contains more and longer genes and introns, longer segmental duplications, and more discernibly nuclear-derived DNA. The large size of the Cucurbita mitochondrial genome reflects the accumulation of unprecedented amounts of both chloroplast sequences (> 113 kb) and short repeated sequences (> 370 kb). A low mutation rate has been hypothesized to underlie increases in both genome size and RNA editing frequency in plant mitochondria. However, despite its much larger genome, Cucurbita has a significantly higher synonymous substitution rate (and presumably mutation rate) than Citrullus but comparable levels of RNA editing. The evolution of mutation rate, genome size, and RNA editing are apparently decoupled in Cucurbitaceae, reflecting either simple stochastic variation or governance by different factors.

AB Oxidative modifications of protein tyrosines have been implicated in multiple human diseases. Among these modifications, elevations in levels of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (DOPA), a major product of hydroxyl radical addition to tyrosine, has been observed in a number of pathologies. Here we report the first proteome survey of endogenous site-specific modifications, i.e. DOPA and its further oxidation product dopaquinone in mouse brain and heart tissues. Results from LC-MS/MS analyses included 50 and 14 DOPA-modified tyrosine sites identified from brain and heart, respectively, whereas only a few nitrotyrosine-containing peptides, a more commonly studied marker of oxidative stress, were detectable, suggesting the much higher abundance for DOPA modification as compared with tyrosine nitration. Moreover, 20 and 12 dopaquinone-modified peptides were observed from brain and heart, respectively; nearly one-fourth of these peptides were also observed with DOPA modification on the same sites. For both tissues, these modifications are preferentially found in mitochondrial proteins with metal binding properties, consistent with metal-catalyzed hydroxyl radical formation from mitochondrial superoxide and hydrogen peroxide. These modifications also link to a number of mitochondrially associated and other signaling pathways. Furthermore, many of the modification sites were common sites of previously reported tyrosine phosphorylation, suggesting potential disruption of signaling pathways. Collectively, the results suggest that these modifications are linked with mitochondrially derived oxidative stress and may serve as sensitive markers for disease pathologies.

AB An important challenge in microbial ecology is developing methods that simultaneously examine the physiology of organisms at the molecular level and their ecosystem level interactions in complex natural systems. We integrated extensive proteomic, geochemical, and biological information from 28 microbial communities collected from an acid mine drainage environment and representing a range of biofilm development stages and geochemical conditions to evaluate how the physiologies of the dominant and less abundant organisms change along environmental gradients. The initial colonist dominates across all environments, but its proteome changes between two stable states as communities diversify, implying that interspecies interactions affect this organism's metabolism. Its overall physiology is robust to abiotic environmental factors, but strong correlations exist between these factors and certain subsets of proteins, possibly accounting for its wide environmental distribution. Lower abundance populations are patchier in their distribution, and proteomic data indicate that their environmental niches may be constrained by specific sets of abiotic environmental factors. This research establishes an effective strategy to investigate ecological relationships between microbial physiology and the environment for whole communities in situ.

AB High-resolution Multi-Element Radio Linked Interferometer Network 5-GHz observations of seven Seyfert galaxies, selected as the ones previously showing evidence of collimated ejection, have been compared with high-resolution Hubble Space Telescope data. A radio and optical/near-ultraviolet emission correlation is apparent in all the sources. The radio maps reveal rich structures in the entire sample. NGC 2639 and TXFS 2226-184 have multiple-knot parsec-scale extended structures, Mrk 1034NED02, Mrk 1210, NGC 4922NED02 and NGC 5506 reveal one-sided jets, while IC 1481 exhibits jet features. Interaction between these very small (mostly mas) sub-kpc jets with dense material gives rise to symptoms of a disrupted medium, signatures of which are present in all the sources.

AB Organic and hybrid (organic/inorganic) solar cells are an attractive alternative to traditional silicon-based photovoltaics due to low-temperature, solution-based processing and the potential for rapid, easily scalable manufacturing. Using oxide semiconductors, instead of fullerenes, as the electron acceptor and transporter in hybrid solar cells has the added advantages of better environmental stability, higher electron mobility, and the ability to engineer interfacial band offsets and hence the photovoltage. Further improvements to this structure can be made by using metal oxide nanostructures to increase heterojunction areas, similar to bulk heterojunction organic photovoltaics. However, compared to all-organic solar cells, these hybrid devices produce far lower photocurrent, making improvement of the photocurrent the highest priority. This points to a less than optimized polymer/metal oxide interface for carrier separation. In this article, we summarize recent work on examining the polymer structure, electron transfer, and recombination at the polythiophene-ZnO interface in hybrid solar cells. Additionally, the impact of chemical modification at the donor-acceptor interface on the device characteristics is reviewed.

AB We propose and demonstrate efficiently molding surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) based on transformation optics. SPPs are surface modes of electromagnetic waves tightly bound at metal-dielectric interfaces, which allow us to scale optics beyond the diffraction limit. Taking advantage of transformation optics, here we show that the propagation of SPPs can be manipulated in a prescribed manner by careful control of the dielectric material properties adjacent to a metal. Since the metal properties are completely unaltered, this methodology provides a practical way for routing light at very small scales. For instance, our approach enables SPPs to travel at uneven and curved surfaces over a broad wavelength range, where SPPs would normally suffer significant scattering losses. In addition, a plasmonic 180 degrees waveguide bend and a plasmonic Luneburg lens with simple designs are presented. The unique design flexibility of the transformational plasmon optics introduced here may open a new door to nano optics and downscaling of photonic circuits.

AB Formation of ferroelastic twin domains in vanadium dioxide (VO2) nanosystems can strongly affect local strain distributions, and hence couple to the strain-controlled metal insulator transition. Here we report polarized-light optical and scanning microwave microscopy studies of interrelated ferroelastic and metal insulator transitions in single-crystalline VO2 quasi-two-dimensional (quasi-2D) nanoplatelets (NPIs). In contrast to quasi-ID single-crystalline nanobeams, the 2D geometric frustration results in emergence of several possible families of ferroelastic domains in NPIs, thus allowing systematic studies of strain-controlled transitions in the presence of geometrical frustration. We demonstrate the possibility of controlling the ferroelastic domain population by the strength of the NPI-substrate interaction, mechanical stress, and by the NPI lateral size. Ferroelastic domain species and domain walls are identified based on standard group-theoretical considerations. Using variable temperature microscopy, we imaged the development of domains of metallic and semiconducting phases during the metal insulator phase transition and nontrivial strain-driven reentrant domain formation. A long-range reconstruction of ferroelastic structures accommodating metal-insulator domain formation has been observed. These studies illustrate that a complete picture of the phase transitions in single-crystalline and disordered VO2 structures can be drawn only if both ferroelastic and metal-insulator strain effects are taken into consideration and understood.

AB The present study describes an optical resonant cavity in a nanotaper with scale reduction from micro to several nanometers. Both experimental results and a finite-difference time-domain (FDTD)-based simulation suggested that the nanometer-scale taper with a diameter similar to the wavelength of light acted as a mirror, which facilitated the formation of a laser cavity and caused lasing in ZnO nanotapers. As the light inside the nanotaper propagated toward the apex, the lateral mode was reduced and reflection occurred. This report suggests that use of the resonant optical cavities in nanotapers might result in novel active and passive optical components, which will broaden the horizons of photonic technology,

AB Generation of multiple electron hole pairs (excitons) by single photons, known as carrier multiplication (CM), has the potential to appreciably improve the performance of solar photovoltaics. In semiconductor nanocrystals, this effect usually has been detected using a distinct dynamical signature of multiexcitons associated with their fast Auger recombination, Here, we show that uncontrolled photocharging of the nanocrystal core can lead to exaggeration of the Auger decay component and, as a result, significant deviations of the apparent CM efficiencies from their true values. Specifically, we observe that for the same sample, apparent multiexciton yields can differ by a factor of 3 depending on whether the nanocrystal solution is static or stirred. We show that this discrepancy is consistent with photoinduced charging of the nanocrystals in static solutions, the effect of which is minimized in the stirred case where the charged nanocrystals are swept from the excitation volume between sequential excitation pulses. Using side-by-side measurements of CM efficiencies and nanocrystal charging, we show that the CM results obtained under static conditions converge to the values measured for stirred solutions after we accurately account for the effects of photocharging. This study helps to clarify the recent controversy over CM in nanocrystals and highlights some of the issues that must be carefully considered in spectroscopic studies of this process.

AB The effect of mechanical disturbance on one-dimensional nanocrystal growth in solution phase is investigated by controlled growth of Au nanowires with and without stirring. While a static growth leads to straight, single-crystal Au nanowires, the mechanic disturbance by stirring tends to bend the nanowire growth, yielding nanowire kinks abundant in various types of crystal defects including dislocations, twin boundaries, and grain boundaries. Mechanical modeling and analysis is introduced to elucidate the nanowire growth mechanisms in these two conditions. The provided fundamental understanding of crystal defect formation at nanoscale could be applied to guide the development of advanced nanomaterials with shape control and unique mechanical properties.

AB We report the fabrication of arrays of single and multiple out-of-plane nanowire devices on a single substrate, an important step for the fabrication of novel three-dimensional devices and the integration of individually addressable nanowires onto current Si planar technology platforms. Vertical nanowire device fabrication can greatly increase device densities; however integrating such devices into arrays with registry to the substrate requires precise control over the number and position of the nanowires. Here we report the directed assembly of gold nanoparticle seeds into patterned arrays for the growth of nanowires using chemical recognition and electrophoretic methods. Chemical recognition provides highly reproducible control of the position and number of nanoparticles per pattern element and is shown to be in good agreement with a simple electrostatic model. Individually addressed out-of-plane, vapor liquid solid grown Ge nanowires with single and multiple nanowires per element are fabricated and electrically characterized.

AB We present theoretical and experimental studies of Schottky diodes that use aligned arrays of single-walled carbon nanotubes. A simple physical model, taking into account the basic physics of current rectification, can adequately describe the single-tube and array devices. We show that for as-grown array diodes, the rectification ratio, defined by the maximum-to-minimum-current-ratio, is low due to the presence of metallic-single-walled nanotube (SWNT) shunts. These tubes can be eliminated in a single voltage sweep resulting in a high rectification array device. Further analysis also shows that the channel resistance, and not the intrinsic nanotube diode properties, limits the rectification in devices with channel length up to 10 mu m.

AB We present the design, fabrication, and characterization of a pixelated, hyperspectral arrayed component for Focal Plane Array (FPA) integration in the Long-Wave IR. This device contains tens of pixels within a single super-pixel which is tiled across the extent of the FPA. Each spectral pixel maps to a single FPA pixel with a spectral FWHM of 200 nm. With this arrayed approach, remote sensing data may be accumulated with a non-scanning, "snapshot" imaging system. To maximize the signal-to-noise ratio, the pixelated filter array must be placed very close to the detecting FPA so that diffraction effects are mitigated. We quantify the diffraction effects in the design and layout of this pixelated filter component where pixel dimensions are only a few wavelengths. The technology allows for flexible location of individual pixel center wavelengths and of pixel positions within the array. Finally, an entire pixel area has a single wavelength response, not the integrated linear response of a graded cavity thickness design.

AB Electrocatalysis will play a key role in future energy conversion and storage technologies, such as water electrolysers, fuel cells and metal-air batteries. Molecular interactions between chemical reactants and the catalytic surface control the activity and efficiency, and hence need to be optimized; however, generalized experimental strategies to do so are scarce. Here we show how lattice strain can be used experimentally to tune the catalytic activity of dealloyed bimetallic nanoparticles for the oxygen-reduction reaction, a key barrier to the application of fuel cells and metal-air batteries. We demonstrate the core-shell structure of the catalyst and clarify the mechanistic origin of its activity. The platinum-rich shell exhibits compressive strain, which results in a shift of the electronic band structure of platinum and weakening chemisorption of oxygenated species. We combine synthesis, measurements and an understanding of strain from theory to generate a reactivity-strain relationship that provides guidelines for tuning electrocatalytic activity.

AB We present 'gene prediction improvement pipeline' (GenePRIMP; http://geneprimp.jgi-psf.org/), a computational process that performs evidence-based evaluation of gene models in prokaryotic genomes and reports anomalies including inconsistent start sites, missed genes and split genes. We found that manual curation of gene models using the anomaly reports generated by GenePRIMP improved their quality, and demonstrate the applicability of GenePRIMP in improving finishing quality and comparing different genome-sequencing and annotation technologies.

TI Particle-hole symmetry breaking in the pseudogap state of Bi2201

AB In conventional superconductors, a gap exists in the energy absorption spectrum only below the transition temperature (T(c)), corresponding to the price to pay in energy for breaking a Cooper pair of electrons and creating two excited states. In high-T(c) cuprate superconductors above T(c) but below a temperature T*, an energy gap called the pseudogap(1) exists, and is controversially attributed either to pre-formed superconducting pairs, which would show particle-hole symmetry, or to competing phases that would typically break it. Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) studies suggest that the pseudogap stems from lattice translational symmetry breaking(2-9) and is associated with a different characteristic spectrum for adding or removing electrons (particle-hole asymmetry; refs 2,3). However, no signature of either energy or spatial symmetry breaking of the pseudogap has previously been observed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy(9-8) (ARPES). Here we report ARPES data from Bi2201, which reveal both particle-hole symmetry breaking and pronounced spectral broadening-indicative of spatial symmetry breaking without long-range order at the opening of the pseudogap. Our finding supports the STM proposal that the pseudogap state is a broken-symmetry state that is distinct from homogeneous superconductivity.

TI Evidence for a Lifshitz transition in electron-doped iron arsenic
superconductors at the onset of superconductivity
SO NATURE PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
AB The iron arsenic high-temperature superconductors(1,2) exhibit particularly rich phase diagrams. In the AE(Fe(1-x)T(x))(2)As(2) family (known as '122', with AE being Ca, Sr or Ba and T being a transition metal), the simultaneous structural/magnetic phase transition that occurs at elevated temperature in the undoped material splits and is suppressed by carrier doping(3,4). A superconducting region appears as likely in the orthorhombic/antiferromagnetic (AFM) state as in the tetragonal/paramagnetic state(3,5,6). An important question then is what determines the critical doping at which superconductivity emerges, as the AFM order is fully suppressed only close to optimal doping. Here we report evidence from angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy that marked changes in the Fermi surface coincide with the onset of superconductivity in electron-doped Ba(Fe(1-x)Co(x))(2)As(2). The presence of the AFM order leads to a reconstruction of the electronic structure, most significantly the appearance of the petal-like hole pockets at the Fermi level. These hole pockets vanish-that is, undergo a Lifshitz transition(7)-as the cobalt concentration is increased sufficiently to support superconductivity. Superconductivity and magnetism are competing states in this system: when petal-like hole pockets are present, superconductivity is fully suppressed, whereas in their absence the two states can coexist.

AB Light-harvesting components of photosynthetic organisms are complex, coupled, many-body quantum systems, in which electronic coherence has recently been shown to survive for relatively long timescales, despite the decohering effects of their environments. Here, we analyse entanglement in multichromophoric light-harvesting complexes, and establish methods for quantification of entanglement by describing necessary and sufficient conditions for entanglement and by deriving a measure of global entanglement. These methods are then applied to the Fenna-Matthews-Olson protein to extract the initial state and temperature dependencies of entanglement. We show that, although the Fenna-Matthews-Olson protein in natural conditions largely contains bipartite entanglement between dimerized chromophores, a small amount of long-range and multipartite entanglement should exist even at physiological temperatures. This constitutes the first rigorous quantification of entanglement in a biological system. Finally, we discuss the practical use of entanglement in densely packed molecular aggregates such as light-harvesting complexes.

AB Signal transduction originates at the membrane, where the clustering of signaling proteins is a key step in transmitting a message. Membranes are difficult to study, and their influence on signaling is still only understood at the most rudimentary level. Recent advances in the biophysics of membranes, surveyed in this review, have highlighted a variety of phenomena that are likely to influence signaling activity, such as local composition heterogeneities and long-range mechanical effects. We discuss recent mechanistic insights into three signaling systems-Ras activation, Ephrin signaling and the control of actin nucleation-where the active role of membrane components is now appreciated and for which experimentation on the membrane is required for further understanding.

AB Stroke is accompanied by neuroinflammation in humans and animal models. To examine the temporal and anatomical profile of neuroinflammation and NMDA receptors (NMDAR) in a stroke model, rats (N=17) were subjected to a 90 min occlusion of the middle cerebral artery (MCAO) and compared to sham (N=5) and intact (N=4) controls. Striatal and parietal cortical infarction was confirmed by MRI 24 h after reperfusion. Animals were killed 14 or 30-40 days later and consecutive coronal cryostat sections were processed for quantitative autoradiography with the neuroinflammation marker [H-3]PK11195 and the NMDAR antagonist [H-3]MK801. Significantly increased specific binding of [H-3]PK11195 relative to nonischemic controls was observed in the ipsilateral striatum (>3 fold, p 0.0001), substantia innominata (>2 fold) with smaller (20%-80%) but statistically significant (p = 0.002-0.04) ipsilateral increases in other regions partially involved in the infarct such as the parietal and piriform cortex, and in the lateral septum, which was not involved in the infarct. Trends for increases in PBR density were also observed in the contralateral hemisphere. In the same animals, NMDAR specific binding was significantly decreased bilaterally in the septum, substantia innominata and ventral pallidum. Significant decreases were also seen in the ipsilateral striatum, accumbens, frontal and parietal cortex. The different anatomical distribution of the two phenomena suggests that neuroinflammation does not cause the observed reduction in NMDAR, though loss of NMDAR may be locally augmented in ipsilateral regions with intense neuroinflammation. Persistent, bilateral loss of NMDAR, probably reflecting receptor down regulation and internalization, may be responsible for some of the effects of stroke on cognitive function which cannot be explained by infarction alone.

AB Echo planar imaging (EPI), the gold standard technique for functional MRI (fMRI), is based on fast magnetic field gradient switching. These time-varying magnetic fields induce electric (E) fields in the brain that could influence neuronal activity; but this has not been tested. Here we assessed the effects of EPI on brain glucose metabolism (marker of brain function) using PET and 18F 2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose ((18)FDG). Fifteen healthy subjects were in a 4T magnet during the (18)FDG uptake period twice: with (ON) and without (OFF) EPI gradients pulses along the z-axis (G(z): 23 mT/m; 250 mu s rise-time; 920 Hz). The E-field from these EPI pulses is non-homogeneous, increasing linearly from the gradient's isocenter (radial and z directions), which allowed us to assess the correlation between local strength of the E-field and the regional metabolic differences between ON and OFF sessions. Metabolic images were normalized to metabolic activity in the plane positioned at the gradient's isocenter where E = 0 for both ON and OFF conditions. Statistical parametric analyses used to identify regions that differed between ON versus OFF (p<0.05, corrected) showed that the relative metabolism was lower in areas at the poles of the brain (inferior occipital and frontal and superior parietal cortices) for ON than for OFF, which was also documented with individual region of interest analysis. Moreover the magnitude of the metabolic decrements was significantly correlated with the estimated strength of E (r = 0.68, p<0.0001): the stronger the E-field the larger the decreases. However, we did not detect differences between ON versus OFF conditions on mood ratings nor on absolute whole brain metabolism. This data provides preliminary evidence that EPI sequences may affect neuronal activity and merits further investigation. Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB Development of more eco-friendly hydroelectric facilities requires better understanding of the biological response of juvenile fish when they migrate through the turbines and other downstream passage facilities. Juvenile fall Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha were exposed to turbulent shear flows in a laboratory by using a fast-fish-to-slow-water mechanism in which test fish were carried by the fast-moving water of a submerged turbulent jet into the slow-moving water of a flume. Fish were released at six nozzle velocities: 6.1 (reference control), 12.2, 15.2, 18.3, 21.3, and 22.9 m/s. The onset of minor and major injuries occurred at 15.2 and 21.3 m/s, respectively. The acceleration magnitude threshold (m/s(2)) of major injury for the fast-fish-to-slow-water mechanism in this study was found to be significantly higher than that for a slow-fish- to-fast-water mechanism used in a previous study in which test fish were introduced into a turbulent jet from slow-moving water through an introduction tube placed just outside the edge of the jet. Fish responded differently and sustained different injuries when they were subjected to turbulent shear flows under the two exposure mechanisms. This information is applicable to the design and operation of turbines and spillways because these two tested mechanisms simulate the severe hydraulic events fish usually experience during passage at hydropower dams.

AB Studies were completed to obtain mechanical properties of depleted uranium-molybdenum (U-Mo) alloys subjected to different post-processing treatments using microhardness, quasi-static tensile tests, and scanning electron microscopy failure analysis. U-Mo alloy foils are currently under investigation for potential fuel conversion of high power research reactors to low enriched uranium fuel. Although mechanical properties take on a secondary effect during irradiation, an understanding of the alloy behavior during fabrication and the effects of irradiation on the integrity of the fuel are essential. In general, the microhardness was insensitive to annealing temperature but decreased with annealing duration. Yield strength, Young's modulus, and ultimate tensile strength were affected in varying manners with both increasing annealing temperature and duration, and subjecting the alloy to rolling. The failure mode was insensitive to annealing conditions, but was significantly controlled by the impurity concentration of the alloy, especially carbon. Values obtained from literature are also provided with reasonable agreement based on extrapolation of annealing duration, even though processing conditions and applications were quite different in some instances.

ID LARGE TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCES; MACH NUMBER SOLVERS; BENCHMARK PROBLEM;
SQUARE CAVITY
AB This paper illustrates a comparative study to analyze the physical differences between numerical simulations obtained with both the conservation and incompressible forms of the Navier-Stokes equations for natural convection flows in simple geometries. The purpose of this study is to quantify how the incompressible flow assumption (which is based upon constant density advection, divergence-free flow, and the Boussinesq gravitational body force approximation) differs from the conservation form (which only assumes that the fluid is a continuum) when solving flows driven by gravity acting upon density variations resulting from local temperature gradients. Driving this study is the common use of the incompressible flow assumption in fluid flow simulations for nuclear power applications in natural convection flows subjected to a high heat flux (large temperature differences). A series of simulations were conducted on two-dimensional, differentially heated rectangular geometries and modeled with both hydrodynamic formulations. From these simulations, the selected characterization parameters of maximum Nusselt number, average Nusselt number, and normalized pressure reduction were calculated. Comparisons of these parameters were made with available benchmark solutions for air with the ideal gas assumption at both low and high heat fluxes. Additionally, we generated specific force quantities and velocity and temperature distributions to provide a basis for further analysis. The simulations and analysis were then extended to include helium at the Very High Temperature gas-cooled Reactor (VHTR) normal operating conditions. Our results show that the consequences of incorporating the incompressible flow assumption in high heat flux situations may lead to unrepresentative results. The results question the use of the incompressible flow assumption for simulating fluid flow in an operating nuclear reactor, where large temperature variations are present. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

The results have been reflected in the safety requirements for dry casks issued by NISA/METI (Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency, Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry) of the Japanese government. On top of that, spent fuel integrity has been studied by the Japan Nuclear Energy Safety Organization (JNES). This paper reviews these research programs. Future issues include the long-term integrity of cask components and high burn-up spent fuel.

AB An H-mode edge pedestal plasma transport benchmarking exercise was undertaken for a single DIII-D pedestal. Transport modelling codes used include 1.5D interpretive (ONETWO, GTEDGE), 1.5D predictive (ASTRA) and 2D ones (SOLPS, UEDGE). The particular DIII-D discharge considered is 98889, which has a typical low density pedestal. Profiles for the edge plasma are obtained from Thomson and charge-exchange recombination data averaged over the last 20% of the average 33.53 ms repetition time between type I edge localized modes. The modelled density of recycled neutrals is largest in the divertor X-point region and causes the edge plasma source rate to vary by a factor similar to 10(2) on the separatrix. Modelled poloidal variations in the densities and temperatures on flux surfaces are small on all flux surfaces up to within about 2.6 mm (rho(N) > 0.99) of the mid-plane separatrix. For the assumed Fick's-diffusion-type laws, the radial heat and density fluxes vary poloidally by factors of 2-3 in the pedestal region; they are largest on the outboard mid-plane where flux surfaces are compressed and local radial gradients are largest. Convective heat flows are found to be small fractions of the electron (less than or similar to 10%) and ion (less than or similar to 25%) heat flows in this pedestal. Appropriately averaging the transport fluxes yields interpretive 1.5D effective diffusivities that are smallest near the mid-point of the pedestal. Their 'transport barrier' minima are about 0.3 (electron heat), 0.15 (ion heat) and 0.035 (density) m(2) s(-1). Electron heat transport is found to be best characterized by electron-temperature-gradient-induced transport at the pedestal top and paleoclassical transport throughout the pedestal. The effective ion heat diffusivity in the pedestal has a different profile from the neoclassical prediction and may be smaller than it. The very small effective density diffusivity may be the result of an inward pinch flow nearly balancing a diffusive outward radial density flux. The inward ion pinch velocity and density diffusion coefficient are determined by a new interpretive analysis technique that uses information from the force balance (momentum conservation) equations; the paleoclassical transport model provides a plausible explanation of these new results. Finally, the measurements and additional modelling needed to facilitate better pedestal plasma transport modelling are discussed.

AB The application of non-axisymmetric magnetic perturbations has been shown to destabilize edge-localized modes (ELMs) in the National Spherical Torus Experiment. This ELM-triggering effect is used to controllably introduce ELMs into lithium-enhanced ELM-free H-mode discharges, reducing the typical impurity accumulation while maintaining high energy confinement. Recent improvements to the triggering techniques are described. The perturbation waveform has been improved, with large amplitude, short duration perturbations allowing rapid, highly reliable triggering, with reduced braking of toroidal rotation. The rapid triggering allowed the ELM frequency to be increased to over 60 Hz, leading to a reduction in the average ELM size. Combined with improved gas fuelling, this method has resulted in periods of stationary global conditions, although plasma profiles do continue to evolve.

AB Experiments in a number of conventional aspect ratio tokamaks have been successful in pacing edge localized modes (ELMs) by rapid vertical jogging of the plasma. This paper demonstrates the first pacing of ELMs in a spherical torus plasma. Applied 30 Hz vertical jogs synchronized the ELMs with the upward motion of the plasma. 45 Hz jogs also lead to an increase in the ELM frequency, though the synchronization of the ELMs and jogs was unclear. A reduction in the ELM energy was observed at the higher driven ELM frequencies.

AB On DIII-D, the H-mode power threshold has been determined for hydrogen, deuterium and helium plasmas heated by neutral beam injection and/or by electron cyclotron heating and as a function of the applied torque plasmas for plasma configurations in the favourable ion grad-B drift direction. The H-mode threshold power has been determined to increase with input torque for all the main ion species (hydrogen, deuterium and helium). The H-mode threshold power for similar plasma parameters and configurations is the least for deuterium, followed by helium and hydrogen in that order. The plasma geometry also affects the power threshold, which is dependent on the X-point height.

AB The spatial and temporal evolution of the total pedestal pressure profile has been measured during the pedestal evolution between successive edge localized modes (ELMs) of type-I ELMing H-mode discharges in DIII-D. Measurements are used to test a model that predicts that kinetic ballooning modes (KBMs) provide a strong constraint on the pedestal pressure gradient obtained during an inter-ELM cycle and cause the pedestal width to scale as the square root of the pedestal poloidal beta. Discharges in two different parameter regimes are examined for evidence that the evolution of the pressure gradient reaches a limit prior to the onset of an ELM. Both discharges show evidence of rapid evolution of the pressure profile very early in the recovery phase from an ELM. In one discharge, the pressure gradient reached approximate steady state within similar to 3 ms after the ELM event. In the other discharge, the pressure gradient just inboard of the last closed flux surface reached steady state early in the ELM recovery phase even as the pedestal expanded into the core and the maximum pressure gradient continued to rise during the remainder of the ELM cycle. Simple quantitative theoretical metrics show that pressure gradients in both discharges reached levels that were large enough to excite KBMs. In addition, the peeling-ballooning theory for the onset of type-I ELMs and the EPED1 model for pedestal height and width make predictions consistent with the data of both discharges.

AB The shape of the cross-section of fusion plasma experiments in many devices is a key determinant of the resulting plasma characteristics. Experiments to attempt suppression of edge localized modes (ELMs) by the technique of resonant magnetic perturbation (RMP) were performed in the DIII-D tokamak in varying plasma shapes. It was found that while ELM suppression in a plasma shape similar to the ITER shape with a single magnetic null was possible, ELM suppression could not be attained in a balanced or upward-biased double-null (DN) shape, although the ELMs in the DN shape were smaller and of higher frequency than the ones before RMP was applied. Calculation of the peeling-ballooning stability of the plasma showed that the ELMing plasma is stable to type-I ELMs, suggesting the ELMs are of another type.

AB The application of lower hybrid range of frequencies (LHRF) waves in H-mode plasmas on Alcator C-Mod can result in a significant reduction in core particle inventory, with no significant degradation of energy confinement. This phenomenon has been observed in steady enhanced D(a) (EDA) H-mode targets, which are sustained by ion cyclotron RF auxiliary heating, in which pedestal density n(ped) is usually tied firmly to plasma current I(P) and shows a strong resilience to changes in the edge neutral source. Upon application of up to 1 MW LHRF power, nped is reduced by up to 30%, while the temperature profile increases simultaneously such that the pressure pedestal remains constant or is slightly increased. Steady EDA H-mode operation with no edge-localized modes can be maintained while edge collisionality is reduced by factors of reduction of 2-4. Elevation of scrape-off layer (SOL) density and electric currents accompany the application of LHRF (at levels as low as 400 kW) with a fast time response (similar to 10(-2) s), while full density pedestal relaxation and core density reduction occur on longer time scales (similar to 10(-1) s). A similarly prompt counter-I(P) change in the edge toroidal velocity is also observed in response to LHRF, followed on longer time scales by a counter-I(P) change in the central rotation. The range of time scales of the plasma response may indicate that the radial locations of LHRF interactions (i.e. SOL versus core), and power deposition mechanisms, are evolving in time. Understanding the responsible physical mechanisms and applying them to a broad range of discharges could provide a tool for improved H-mode density control.

AB A summary of results from recent L-H power threshold (P-LH) experiments in the National Spherical Torus Experiment is presented. First P-LH (normalized linearly by plasma density) was found to be a minimum in double-null configuration, tending to increase as the plasma was shifted more strongly towards lower-or upper-single null configuration with either neutral beam or rf heating. The measured P-LH/n(e) was comparable with neutral beam or rf heating, suggesting that rotation was not playing a dominant role in setting the value of P-LH. The role of triangularity (delta(bot)) in setting P-LH/n(e) is less clear: while 50% less auxiliary heating power was required to access H-mode at low dbot than at high dbot, the high dbot discharges had lower ohmic heating and higher dW/dt, leading to comparable loss of power over a range of dbot. In addition, the dependences of P-LH on the density, species (helium versus deuterium), plasma current, applied non-axisymmetric error fields and lithium wall conditioning are summarized.

AB ADIII-D inter-ELM H-mode plasma that is in approximate transport equilibrium is analysed with the 1.5D ONETWO core code and the 2D SOLPS code. In order to investigate the importance of core-edge coupling and 2D effects, including divertor fuelling across the X-point and poloidal asymmetries that are not explicitly included in ONETWO, the domain of SOLPS is extended to very near the magnetic axis. Two principal objectives are (1) to determine whether poloidal asymmetries in the plasma distributions are large enough to vitiate a core-type interpretive plasma transport analysis and (2) to determine whether the interpretive transport coefficients and neutral beam power and particle sources from ONETWO, when used in 2D SOLPS full plasma simulations, yield the same quality fits to the measured upstream density and temperature profiles as obtained with ONETWO. Results show that only a small increase in the separatrix value of the particle diffusion coefficient, and no change in the thermal diffusivities from ONETWO was needed to get excellent agreement of the upstream SOLPS density and temperature profiles and the Thomson scattering and CER data. Good agreement of the ONETWO and SOLPS flux surface averaged distributions of the core electron and D(+) densities and temperatures are also obtained. Likewise the C(6+) density, with a simple chemical sputtering model based on a constant fraction of the divertor D(+) flux, the core heat and particle fluxes and the neutral density reveal no 2D effects in the core/pedestal region that would vitiate a 1.5D treatment of the inter-ELM H-mode plasma.

AB We present edge kinetic ion transport simulations of tokamak plasmas in magnetic divertor geometry using the fully nonlinear (full-f) continuum code TEMPEST. Besides neoclassical transport, a term for divergence of anomalous kinetic radial flux is added to mock up the effect of turbulent transport. To study the relative roles of neoclassical and anomalous transport, TEMPEST simulations were carried out for plasma transport and flow dynamics in a single-null tokamak geometry, including the pedestal region that extends across the separatrix into the scrape-off layer and private flux region. A series of TEMPEST simulations were conducted to investigate the transition of midplane pedestal heat flux and flow from the neoclassical to the turbulent limit and the transition of divertor heat flux and flow from the kinetic to the fluid regime via an anomalous transport scan and a density scan. The TEMPEST simulation results demonstrate that turbulent transport (as modelled by large diffusion) plays a similar role to collisional decorrelation of particle orbits and that the large turbulent transport (large diffusion) leads to an apparent Maxwellianization of the particle distribution. We also show the transition of parallel heat flux and flow at the entrance to the divertor plates from the fluid to the kinetic regime. For an absorbing divertor plate boundary condition, a non-half-Maxwellian is found due to the balance between upstream radial anomalous transport and energetic ion endloss.

AB The turbulent angular momentum flux carried by ions resonant with toroidal ion temperature gradient (ITG) instability is calculated via quasilinear calculation using the phase-space conserving gyrokinetic equation in the laboratory frame. The results near ITG marginality indicate that the inward turbulent equipartition momentum pinch (Hahm et al 2007 Phys. Plasmas 14 072302) remains as the most robust part of pinch. In addition, ITG driven momentum flux is inward for typical parameters, while density gradient driven momentum flux is outward as in the previous kinetic result in slab geometry (Diamond et al 2008 Phys. Plasmas 15 012303).

Damping of wakefields is a critical issue in the next generation of high gradient electron accelerators, and photonic bandgap (PBG) structures have unique properties for suppressing and damping wakefields. In the experiments the wakefields were generated by passing an 18 MeV electron beam through the six cell 17.14 GHz structure. The wakefield radiation was measured at two locations: the structure output port, and at a window viewing port located at the side of the structure. The electron beam consisted of a train of bunches spaced at 17.14 GHz, so that only radiation at 17.14 GHz and its harmonics was observed. Wakefields at up to the fifth harmonic (85.7 GHz) were detected by a heterodyne receiver system. The wakefield power levels were measured at 17 and 34 GHz for average currents between 20 and 300 mA. The results were compared with full wakefield simulations using the code ANALYST. The measured power level at 17 GHz was in excellent agreement with the theoretical estimate, but the measured power at 34 GHz was significantly lower than the theoretical estimate. At both 17 and 34 GHz the measured power level increased as the beam current squared, as expected from theory. The experimental results demonstrate the weak excitation of high order mode wakefields in a photonic bandgap structure. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Nuclear physics experiments at Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility's CEBAF rely on high polarization electron beams. We describe a recently commissioned system for prequalifying and studying photocathodes for CEBAF with a load-locked, low-voltage polarized electron source coupled to a compact retarding-field Mott polarimeter. The polarimeter uses simplified electrode structures and operates from 5 to 30 kV. The effective Sherman function for this device has been calibrated by comparison with the CEBAF 5 MeV Mott polarimeter. For elastic scattering from a thick gold target at 20 keV, the effective Sherman function is 0.201(5). Its maximum efficiency at 20 keV, defined as the detected count rate divided by the incident particle current, is 5.4(2) x 10(-4), yielding a figure-of-merit, or analyzing power squared times efficiency, of 1.0(1) x 10(-5). The operating parameters of this new polarimeter design are compared to previously published data for other compact Mott polarimeters of the retarding-field type. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

AB Particle-core interaction is a well-developed model of halo formation in high-intensity beams. In this paper, we present an analytical solution for averaged, single particle dynamics, around a uniformly charged beam. The problem is analyzed through a sequence of canonical transformations of the Hamiltonian, which describes nonlinear particle oscillations. A closed form expression for maximum particle deviation from the axis is obtained. The results of this study are in good agreement with numerical simulations and with previously obtained data.

AB With the scientific successes of the soft X-ray FLASH facility in Germany and the recent spectacular commissioning of the Linac Coherent Light Source at SLAC, free electron lasers are poised to take center stage as the premier source of tunable, intense, coherent photons of either ultra-short time resolution or ultra-fine spectral resolution, from the far infrared to the hard X-ray regime. This paper examines the state of the art in FEL performance and the underlying enabling technologies. It evaluates the state of readiness of the three basic machine architectures-SASE FELs, seeded FELs, and FEL oscillators for the major X-ray science user facilities on the 5-10 years time scale and examines the challenges that lie ahead for FELs to achieve their full potential throughout the entire spectral range. In soft and hard X-rays, high longitudinal coherence, in addition to full transverse coherence, will be the key performance upgrade; ideas using laser-based or self-seeding or oscillators can be expected to be qualitatively superior to today's SASE sources. Short pulses, from femtoseconds to attoseconds, can be realistically envisioned. With high repetition rate electron sources coupled to superconducting radiofrequency linear accelerators, unprecedented average beam brightness will be possible and many users would be served simultaneously by a single accelerator complex.

AB The NASA Space Radiation Laboratory (NSRL) at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) was commissioned in October 2002 and became operational in July 2003. The NSRL was constructed in collaboration with NASA for the purpose of performing space radiation research as part of the NASA space program. The NSRL can accept a wide variety of ions from BNL's Collider Accelerator Department (CAD) Booster accelerator. These ion beams are extracted from the accelerator with kinetic energies ranging from 0.05 to 3 GeV/nucleon. Many different beam conditions have been produced for experiments at NSRL The facilities at BNL and the design of the NSRL facility permit a wide variety of beams to be produced with a great degree of flexibility in the delivery of ion beams to experiments. In this report we will describe the facility and its performance over the eight experimental run periods that have taken place since it became operational. We will also describe the current and future capabilities of the NSRL. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Metal-loaded liquid scintillators are the detectors of choice for various neutrino experiments. Procedures have been developed to transfer metals into organic liquids by solvent extraction or direct dissolution of a metallic compound. Traces of natural radioactivity introduced into the scintillator with the metal may produce undesirable backgrounds. Measurements using a Th-229 tracer indicate that the inclusion of a pH-controlled partial hydrolysis and filtration prior to the preparation of a gadolinium-loading compound can reduce thorium by a factor of similar to 100. This "self-scavenging" procedure has the advantage that it uses only reagents encountered in the production process. Addition of non-elemental scavengers such as iron, or the use of solvent extraction or ion exchange procedures can be avoided. It also improves the optical transmission in the blue region by removing traces of iron. This purification method has potential applications to the large-scale production of other metal-loaded liquid scintillators and for the removal of traces of thorium in the industrial production of lanthanides.

AB Over 5000 PMTs are being deployed at the South Pole to compose the IceCube neutrino observatory. Many are placed deep in the ice to detect Cherenkov light emitted by the products of high-energy neutrino interactions, and others are frozen into tanks on the surface to detect particles from atmospheric cosmic ray showers. IceCube is using the 10-in. diameter R7081-02 made by Hamamatsu Photonics. This paper describes the laboratory characterization and calibration of these PMTs before deployment. PMTs were illuminated with pulses ranging from single photons to saturation level. Parameterizations are given for the single photoelectron charge spectrum and the saturation behavior. Time resolution, late pulses and afterpulses are characterized. Because the PMTs are relatively large, the cathode sensitivity uniformity was measured. The absolute photon detection efficiency was calibrated using Rayleigh-scattered photons from a nitrogen laser. Measured characteristics are discussed in the context of their relevance to IceCube event reconstruction and simulation efforts. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The neutron long counter NERO was built at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL), Michigan State University, for measuring beta-delayed neutron-emission probabilities. The detector was designed to work in conjunction with a beta-delay implantation station, so that beta decays and beta-delayed neutrons emitted from implanted nuclei can be measured simultaneously. The high efficiency of about 40%, for the range of energies of interest, along with the small background, are crucial for measuring beta-delayed neutron emission branchings for neutron-rich r-process nuclei produced as low intensity fragmentation beams in in-flight separator facilities.

AB Application of nuclear microprobe event-by-event data acquisition approaches to synchrotron elemental imaging is at the heart of the design of a large energy-dispersive detector array called Maia, under development by CSIRO and BNL for SXRF elemental imaging on the X-ray microprobe. A new project is aimed at harnessing this development to provide high throughput PIXE imaging on the CSIRO Nuclear Microprobe. Maia combines a 1.2 sr solid-angle 384 detector array, integrated scanning and real-time processing including spectral deconvolution of full-spectral data. Results using a Maia prototype demonstrate the potential using SXRF application data with elemental images of up 100 M pixels. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB A study of the effects of ion irradiation of organically modified silicate thin films on the loss of hydrogen and increase in hardness is presented. NaOH catalyzed SiNa(w)O(x)C(y)H(z) thin films were synthesized by sol-gel processing from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) and methyltriethoxysilane (MTES) precursors and spin-coated onto Si substrates. After drying at 300 C, the films were irradiated with 125 keV H(+) or 250 keV N(2+) at fluences ranging from 1 x 10(14) to 2.5 x 10(16) ions/cm(2). Elastic Recoil Detection (ERD) was used to investigate resulting hydrogen concentration as a function of ion fluence and irradiating species. Nanoindentation was used to measure the hardness of the irradiated films. FT-IR spectroscopy was also used to examine resulting changes in chemical bonding. The resulting hydrogen loss and increase in hardness are compared to similarly processed acid catalyzed silicate thin films. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB One of the crucial steps in the second generation high temperature superconducting wire program was development of the buffer-layer architecture. The architecture designed at the Superconductivity Technology Center at Los Alamos National Laboratory consists of several oxide layers wherein each layer plays a specific role, namely: nucleation layer, diffusion barrier, biaxially textured template, and intermediate layer providing a suitable lattice match to the superconducting Y(1)Ba(2)Cu(3)O(7) (YBCO) compound. This report demonstrates how a wide range of ion beam analysis techniques (SIMS. RBS, channeling, PIXE, PIGE, NRA and ERD) was employed for analysis of each buffer layer and the YBCO film. These results assisted in understanding of a variety of physical processes occurring during the buffer layer fabrication and helped to optimize the buffer-layer architecture as a whole.

AB Defects created in Al(0.4)Ga(0.6)N crystals by 320 keV Ar ion irradiation were studied using Rutherford Back-scattering Spectroscopy/Channeling (RBS/C) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) techniques. One of the main aims of the work was to use a revised version of McChasy, a Monte-Carlo simulation code of backscattering spectra, for the analysis of experimental results obtained for a dislocation-containing crystal. TEM was used to get a better insight into dislocation and dislocation loop geometries in order to restrict the range of parameters used in simulations. RBS/C analysis was performed in a 1.5-3 MeV energy range to check if MC simulations correctly reproduce backscattering spectra at different energies. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB SiGe HBTs are very attractive devices to be used in space communication applications. This technology combines the high speed of the III-V semiconductors with the well-established and easy manufacturing processes of silicon, which allows the manufacturing of RF, analog, and digital devices on the same wafer. In addition, SiGe HBTs were found to be extremely radiation hard in the context of total ionizing dose and displacement damage. However, it was shown through experiments and simulations that these devices are vulnerable to single event effects (SEEs). SEEs are changes in the normal operation of the device (its logical state, currents, transients, etc.) due to the induced currents in the electrodes by the movement of carriers created by the incident ions. We used four electrode (base, emitter, collector, and substrate) IBIC measurements at the Sandia Heavy Ion Nuclear Microprobe Facility. SiGe HBTs are usually designed using deep trench isolation (DTI) to minimize parasitic capacitances from the subcollector to the substrate (faster speed), as well as allow devices to be fabricated much closer together. It is an added bonus that the DTI does not let carriers from outside hits to diffuse into the junction and induce current. Our experiments and TCAD simulations showed that while the above goal was accomplished by this design, it increased the amount of induced charge for ion hits in the active area. Single event transients (SETs) were investigated in both standard and radiation hardened by design (RHBD) bandgap voltage reference (BGR) circuits. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

ID MICROANALYSIS
AB Stable isotope ratios such as C-13/C-12 play an important role in many applications including environment and energy research. Since many surface analysis techniques are plagued with unavoidable hydrocarbon contamination issues during analysis, it is highly desirable that C-13 and C-12 isotopes be measured simultaneously especially in specimens with a minute amount of C-13, in order to reliably determine C-13/C-12 ratios. In, this paper, we report that deuterium induced proton particle reactions, C-13(d, p)C-14 and C-12(d, p)C-13, provide a convenient and reliable approach for C-13/C-12 ratio determination. Optimizations on experimental considerations and potential interferences from other common light isotopes are discussed as well as results from the application of this technique to diagnose the performance of a target debris collection in an inertial confinement fusion (ICF) experiment.

AB Rare earth tritide films evolve as tritium decays into He-3, which forms bubbles that influence long-term film stability in applications such as neutron generators. We followed the properties of model ErT2 films as they aged using ERD analysis to monitor T and He-3 profiles, nanoindentation testing for mechanical properties and transmission electron microscopy to characterize bubble growth. The profiles of T and He-3 are separately measured in ERD using a Delta E - E detector, taking advantage of the differences in energy loss within the Delta E detector. The composition measured by ERD followed the expected build-up of He-3 up to near critical release, where He-3 begins to escape from the film as bubbles overlap. These measurements complement observations of the changing mechanical properties of these films, where the observed behavior divided into two regimes: a substantial increase in layer hardness but elasticity little changed over similar to 18 months, followed by a decrease in elastic stiffness and a modest decrease in hardness over the final 24 months. The evolution of properties has been explained by a combination of dislocation pinning by the bubbles, elastic softening as the bubbles occupy an increasing fraction of the material, and details of bubble growth modes. The ERD measurements confirm that the changes in properties are due to changes in bubble morphology and not to changes in He-3 or T content. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB We compare the trace anomaly, strangeness and baryon number fluctuations calculated in lattice QCD with expectations based on hadron resonance gas model. We find that there is a significant discrepancy between the hadron resonance gas and the lattice data. This discrepancy is largely reduced if the hadron spectrum is modified to take into account the larger values of the quark mass used in lattice calculations as well as the finite lattice spacing errors. We also give a simple parametrization of QCD equation of state, which combines hadron resonance gas at low temperatures with lattice QCD at high temperatures. We compare this parametrization with other parametrizations of the equation of state used in hydrodynamical models and discuss differences in hydrodynamic flow for different equations of state.

AB We argue that features of hadron production in relativistic nuclear collisions, mainly at CERN-SPS energies, may be explained by the existence of three forms of matter: Hadronic Matter, Quarkyonic Matter, and a Quark-Gluon Plasma. We suggest that these meet at a triple point in the QCD phase diagram. Some of the features explained, both qualitatively and semi-quantitatively, include the curve for the decoupling of chemical equilibrium, along with the non-monotonic behavior of strange particle multiplicity ratios at center of mass energies near 10 GeV. If the transition(s) between the three phases are merely crossover(s), the triple point is only approximate. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

The weighting factors were chosen to ensure that the Galerkin diffusion approximation was preserved, which eliminated the discrete ordinates flux dip. It was also shown that the step and diamond angular differencing schemes, which both suffer from the flux dip, do not preserve the diffusion approximation in the Galerkin sense. In this paper we re-derive the Morel and Montry weighted diamond scheme using a formal asymptotic diffusion-limit analysis. The asymptotic analysis yields more information than the Galerkin analysis and demonstrates that the step and diamond schemes do in fact formally preserve the diffusion limit to leading order, while the Morel and Montry weighted diamond scheme preserves it to first order, which is required for full consistency in this limit. Nonetheless, the fact that the step and diamond differencing schemes preserve the diffusion limit to leading order suggests that the flux dip should disappear as the diffusion limit is approached for these schemes. Computational results are presented that confirm this conjecture. We further conjecture that preserving the Galerkin diffusion approximation is equivalent to preserving the asymptotic diffusion limit to first order.

TI Adaptive Three-Dimensional Monte Carlo Functional-Expansion Tallies
SO NUCLEAR SCIENCE AND ENGINEERING
LA English
DT Article
ID TRANSPORT
AB We describe a method that enables Monte Carlo calculations to automatically achieve a user-prescribed error of representation for numerical results. Our approach is to iteratively adapt Monte Carlo functional-expansion tallies (FETs). The adaptivity is based on assessing the cellwise 2-norm of error due to both functional-expansion truncation and statistical uncertainty. These error metrics have been detailed by others for one-dimensional distributions. We extend their previous work to three-dimensional distributions and demonstrate the use of these error metrics for adaptivity. The method examines Monte Carlo FET results, estimates truncation and uncertainty error, and suggests a minimum-required expansion order and run time to achieve the desired level of error. Iteration is required for results to converge to the desired error. Our implementation of adaptive FETs is observed to converge to reasonable levels of desired error for the representation of four distributions. In practice, some distributions and desired error levels may require prohibitively large expansion orders and/or Monte Carlo run times.

AB The (PU)-P-239 and Pu-241 neutron-induced fission cross sections have been measured from subthermal energies to 200 MeV. These measurements are part of a campaign to measure fission cross sections with high precision in support of advanced fast reactor technology. Plutonium-241 is the most active target measured in this program to date, with a half-life of 14.4 yr. The results for Pu-239 are in good agreement with previous experiments and add new information to the limited knowledge on the fission cross section above 30 MeV. Discrepancies of up to 30% between the evaluations and the experimental data for Pu-241 are found in the fast region, which is of particular importance for fast spectrum reactor technology, and a reevaluation of the fission cross section for this isotope is recommended.

AB Recycle of nitric acid in the UREX+ process requires removal of acetic acid. An analysis of the effects of acetic acid in each process step indicates no step will be significantly affected by the concentrations expected. Thus, acetic acid removal can be placed after the last salts are removed, just before the nitric acid is recycled. Two promising removal options have been considered, solvent extraction and distillation. Distillation requires removal of most of the water before large fractions of acetic acid are removed. The process would be energy intensive and would involve the handling of extremely concentrated nitric acid; therefore, solvent extraction appears to be more attractive.

AB Ocean energy is a term used to describe renewable energy derived from the sea, including ocean wave energy, tidal and open-ocean current energy (sometimes called marine hydrokinetic energy), tidal barrages, offshore wind energy, and ocean thermal and salinity gradient energy. Shallow water offshore wind is a commercial technology (over 1,500 MW capacity installed in Europe). The technologies to convert the other ocean energy resources to electricity, including deepwater offshore wind technology, albeit in their infancies, exist. These technologies are ready for full-scale prototype and early commercialization testing at sea. This paper highlights the technology development status of various energy conversion technologies.

AB In this paper we present an overview of research in our group in terahertz (THz) metamaterials and their applications. We have developed a series of planar metamaterials operating at THz frequencies, all of which exhibit a strong resonant response. By incorporating natural materials, e.g., semiconductors, as the substrates or as critical regions of metamaterial elements, we are able to effectively control the metamaterial resonance by the application of external stimuli, e.g., photoexcitation and electrical bias. Such actively controllable metamaterials provide novel functionalities for solid-state device applications with unprecedented performance, such as THz spectroscopy, imaging, and many others.

ID AMPLIFIED LASERS; MOSAIC GRATINGS; INTERFEROMETER
AB Segmented (tiled) grating arrays are being intensively investigated for petawatt-scale pulse compression due to the expense and technical challenges of fabricating monolithic diffraction gratings with apertures of over 1 m. However, the considerable freedom of motion among grating segments complicates compression and laser focusing. We constructed a real compressor system using a segmented grating for an 18 cm aperture laser beam of the Gekko MII 100 TW laser system at Osaka University. To produce clean pulse shapes and single focal spots tolerant of misalignment and groove density difference of grating tiles, we applied a new compressor scheme with image rotation in which each beam segment samples each grating segment but from opposite sides. In high-energy shots of up to 50 J, we demonstrated nearly Fourier-transform-limited pulse compression (0.5 ps) with an almost diffraction-limited spot size (20 mu m).

AB Optimal design applications are often modeled by using categorical variables to express discrete design decisions, such as material types. A disadvantage of using categorical variables is the lack of continuous relaxations, which precludes the use of modern integer programming techniques. We show how to express categorical variables with standard integer modeling techniques, and we illustrate this approach on a load-bearing thermal insulation system. The system consists of a number of insulators of different materials and intercepts that minimize the heat flow from a hot surface to a cold surface. Our new model allows us to employ black-box modeling languages and solvers and illustrates the interplay between integer and nonlinear modeling techniques. We present numerical experience that illustrates the advantage of the standard integer model.

AB This effort is concerned with developing a quantitative description of the exfoliation behavior of oxide scales grown inside steam tubes in a pressure boiler. Consideration of the development of stress/strain in growing oxides has included expansion mismatch-induced strains during thermal cycling as well as inelastic mechanical effects from oxide/alloy creep phenomena and volume change from oxide growth. The magnitude of the parameters used has been closely matched to actual boiler operating practice. The creep model used was validated against published data. Representation of oxide growth-induced strain was found to be a difficult challenge because the processes involved are not fully understood. In addition to the traditional uniaxial (radial) and dilatational models, 'lateral' growth models are discussed in the context of experimentally-derived criteria, such as the level of elastic strains involved in oxide exfoliation. It was found that strain variation in the oxide cannot be neglected.

AB When a crystalline material is made with radioactive isotopes, the structure of that material will change as the radioisotope decays. Using density functional theory, we explore the potential structures formed from this decay, a process we term radioparagenesis. Using three systems as examples - CsCl, SrO, and Lu(2)O(3) we describe how in each case a here-to-fore unobserved crystalline phase of BaCl, ZrO, and Hf(2)O(3) can be formed, resulting in novel crystalline materials. We examine how the formation of these phases depends on the parent structure and the pathways available to the system upon the decay of the radioisotope. We discuss the implications of this phenomenon for the formation of new materials.

AB Fluctuation spectroscopy has been used as an investigative tool to understand the scattering mechanisms of carriers and their low-frequency dynamics in quasi-two-dimensional organic conductors kappa-(BEDT-TTF)(2)X. We report on the very high noise level in these systems as determined from Hooge's empirical law to quantify 1/f-type noise in solids The value of the Hooge parameter gamma(H) i e the normalized noise level of 10(5)-10(7) is several orders of magnitude higher than values of gamma(H) similar to 10(-2)-10(-3) typically found in homogeneous metals and semiconductors (C) 2009 Elsevier B V All rights reserved

AB We report on resistance noise spectroscopy measurements in the superconducting state of two quasi-two-dimensional organic superconductors The superconducting state of beta -(ET)(2)SF5CH2CF2SO3 is homogeneous whereas kappa-(ET)(2)Cu[N(CN)(2)]Cl under pressure is located in the inhomogeneous region of the phase diagram, where antiferromanetic/insulating and superconducting phases coexist For the latter material the finite noise level even well below T-c is understood in the framework of a random resistor network. Furthermore the noise provides evidence for percolation-type superconductivity For homogeneous beta -(ET)(2)SF5CH2CF2SO3 however no indications of percolation effects are found the noise in the superconducting state vanishes and the normalized noise level S-R/R-2 is generally one order of magnitude lower (C) 2009 Elsevier B V All rights reserved

TI Limits on superconductivity-related magnetization in Sr2RuO4 and
PrOs4Sb12 from scanning SQUID microscopy
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID TIME-REVERSAL SYMMETRY; DEPENDENCE
AB We present scanning superconducting quantum interference device microscopy data on the superconductors Sr2RuO4 (T-c=1.5 K) and PrOs4Sb12 (T-c=1.8 K). In both of these materials, superconductivity-related time-reversal symmetry-breaking fields have been observed by muon spin rotation; our aim was to visualize the structure of these fields. However, in neither Sr2RuO4 nor PrOs4Sb12 do we observe spontaneous superconductivity-related magnetization. In Sr2RuO4, many experimental results have been interpreted on the basis of a p(x)+/- ip(y) superconducting order parameter. This order parameter is expected to give spontaneous magnetic induction at sample edges and order parameter domain walls. Supposing large domains, our data restrict domain wall and edge fields to no more than similar to 0.1% and similar to 0.2% of the expected magnitude, respectively. Alternatively, if the magnetization is of the expected order, the typical domain size is limited to similar to 30 nm for random domains or similar to 500 nm for periodic domains.

AB By use of high intensity XUV radiation from the FLASH free-electron laser at DESY, we have created highly excited exotic states of matter in solid-density aluminum samples. The XUV intensity is sufficiently high to excite an inner-shell electron from a large fraction of the atoms in the focal region. We show that soft-x-ray emission spectroscopy measurements reveal the electronic temperature and density of this highly excited system immediately after the excitation pulse, with detailed calculations of the electronic structure, based on finite-temperature density functional theory, in good agreement with the experimental results.

DE Quantum; Motion
AB This essay is an attempt to address, from a modern perspective, the motion of a particle. Quantum mechanically, motion consists of a series of localizations due to repeated interactions that, taken close to the limit of the continuum, yields a world line. If a force acts on the particle, its probability distribution is accordingly modified. This must also be true for macroscopic objects, although now the description is far more complicated by the structure of matter and associated surface physics. (C) 2010 Physics Essays Publication.

TI The effect of plasma flow on line-tied magnetohydrodynamic modes
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS
LA English
DT Article
AB The linear stability of a linear pinch to kink modes with line-tying boundary conditions and equilibrium axial flow is studied. Numerical results in visco-resistive magnetohydrodynamics show that for long plasmas, in which the line-tying stabilization effect is weak, plasma flow is stabilizing. For shorter plasmas, near the length at which line-tying stabilizes the mode for zero flow, the flow can be destabilizing. A simple model using reduced ideal magnetohydrodynamics with a step-function current density and an even simpler one-dimensional sound wave model with equilibrium flow elucidate these effects. It is concluded that: (1) The stabilization in long plasmas is due to convective stabilization; (2) the destabilization for short plasmas can be explained using a picture involving the coupling of two stable waves, one propagating in the forward direction and one in the backward direction; and (3) strong magnetic shear suppresses the flow destabilization for short plasmas.

TI Measurement and simulation of jet mass caused by a high-aspect ratio

SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS

ID NATIONAL-IGNITION-FACILITY; TARGETS; DESIGN; NIF
AB Inertial confinement fusion (ICF) capsule performance can be negatively impacted by the presence of hydrodynamic instabilities. To perform a gas fill on an ICF capsule, current plans involve drilling a small hole and inserting a fill tube to inject the gas mixture into the capsule. This introduces a perturbation on the capsule, which can seed hydrodynamic instabilities. The small hole can cause jetting of the shell material into the gas, which might adversely affect the capsule performance. We have performed simulations and experiments to study the hydrodynamic evolution of jets from high-aspect ratio holes, such as the fill tube hole. Although simulations using cold materials overpredict the amount of mass in the jet, when a plausible amount of preheat (<1 eV) is introduced, the simulations are in better agreement with the experiment.

TI Equilibrium properties of the plasma sheath with a magnetic field
parallel to the wall
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS
LA English
DT Article
ID TARGET FUSION; TRANSITION; CONFIGURATION; SIMULATIONS; SURFACE; SPACE
AB Motivated by the magnetized target fusion (MTF) experiment [R. E. Siemon et al., Comments Plasma Phys. Controlled Fusion 18, 363 (1999)], a systematic investigation of the force balance and equilibrium plasma flows was carried out using analytical theory and the particle-in-cell code VPIC [K. J. Bowers et al., Phys. Plasmas 15, 055703 (2008)] for a one-dimensional plasma sheath with a magnetic field parallel to the wall. Initially uniform full Maxwellian plasma consisting of equal temperature collisionless electrons and ions is allowed to interact with a perfectly absorbing wall. The analysis of the steady-state force balance of the entire plasma as well as its individual components illuminates the roles that the hydrodynamic, magnetic, and electric forces play. In particular, when rho(thi) < lambda(D), the magnetic force balances the divergence of the pressure tensor. As the magnetic field is decreased, the electric force becomes prominent in areas where quasineutrality breaks, which can be a substantial part of the sheath. Its importance depends on the relation between three parameters, namely, electron and ion thermal Larmor radii and plasma Debye length: rho(the), rho(thi), and lambda(D). The relative importance of the electron and ion current in the magnetic or Lorentz force term can be understood through the analysis of the two-fluid force balance. It reveals that the current is carried primarily by the electrons. This is due to the direction of the electric field that helps confine the ions, but not the electrons, which are forced to carry a large current to confine themselves magnetically. In the regimes where the electric field is negligible, the ions also need the current for confinement, but in these cases the divergence of ion pressure tensor is much smaller than that of the electrons. Consequently the ion current is also smaller. The study of the electron and ion flow parallel to the wall clarifies this picture even further. In the regime of strong magnetic field, the particle average velocity parallel to the wall u(y) is purely diamagnetic. However, since the ion number density is very low near the wall, they do not produce considerable contribution to the current. In the rho(thi) < lambda(D) regime, u(y) consists of two parts: diamagnetic and (E) over right arrow x (B) over right arrow drifts. Since the direction of the former depends on the particle charge while the latter does not (at least to lowest order), the drifts for the electrons add, while for the ions they mostly cancel each other. Although the primary motivation for this research is MTF, the analytical and computational results presented in this paper can also be applicable to the plasma sheath in the conventional magnetic confinement devices, in particular, near the first wall of tokamaks.

TI Tapered plasma channels to phase-lock accelerating and focusing forces
in laser-plasma accelerators
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS
LA English
DT Article
ID ELECTRON-ACCELERATORS; DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS; WAKE-FIELD; DRIVEN; PULSES
AB Tapered plasma channels are considered for controlling dephasing of a beam with respect to a plasma wave driven by a weakly relativistic, short-pulse laser. Tapering allows for enhanced energy gain in a single laser-plasma accelerator stage. Expressions are derived for the taper, or longitudinal plasma density variation, required to maintain a beam at a constant phase in the longitudinal and/or transverse fields of the plasma wave. In a plasma channel, the phase velocities of the longitudinal and transverse fields differ and, hence, the required tapering differs. The length over which the tapered plasma density becomes singular is calculated. Linear plasma tapering as well as discontinuous plasma tapering, which moves beams to adjacent plasma wave buckets, is also considered. The energy gain of an accelerated electron in a tapered laser-plasma accelerator is calculated and the laser pulse length to optimize the energy gain is determined.

TI Fundamental role of ion viscosity on fast magnetic reconnection in
large-guide-field regimes
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS
LA English
DT Article
ID HIGH-TEMPERATURE PLASMAS
AB Nonlinear analytical theory of magnetic reconnection with a large guide field is presented for the first time. We confirm that two distinct steady-state reconnection regimes are possible depending on the relative size of the diffusion region thickness delta versus the sound gyroradius rho(s). The reconnection is slow (Sweet-Parker-like) for delta greater than or similar to rho(s), and fast otherwise.. However, unlike earlier work, we find that ion viscosity mu plays a fundamental role in the fast regime. In particular, for delta< rho(s) we obtain delta proportional to Ha(-1), with Ha proportional to 1/ root eta mu as the Hartmann number, and the reconnection rate E(z) proportional to Pr(-1/2), with Pr=mu/ eta as the Prandtl number and eta as the resistivity. If the perpendicular ion viscosity is employed for mu, the reconnection rate becomes independent of plasma beta and collision frequencies, and therefore potentially fast.

AB The change in electronic structure of iron at high pressures to spin-paired states in ferropericlase, silicate perovskite, and post-perovskite may have a profound influence on the thermal conductivity of the lower mantle. Here, we present optical absorption data for lower mantle minerals to assess the effect of composition (including iron oxidation state), structure, and iron spin state on radiative heat transfer. We confirm that the presence of ferric iron in ferropericlase strongly affects the optical properties, while the effect of the spin-pairing transition may be more secondary. We also show that post-perovskite exhibits larger optical absorption in the near infrared and visible spectral ranges than perovskite which may have a profound effect on the dynamics the lowermost mantle. We present preliminary results from measurements of the phonon thermal conductivity of perovskite at 125 GPa using a pulsed laser heating technique. The available data suggest a larger value than what previously estimated, although the uncertainty is large. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The transfer of lipids between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the plastid in Arabidopsis involves the TRIGALACTOSYLDIACYLGLYCEROL (TGD) proteins. Lipid exchange is thought to be bidirectional based on the presence of specific lipid molecular species in Arabidopsis mutants impaired in the desaturation of fatty acids of membrane lipids in the ER and plastid. However, it was unclear whether TGD proteins were required for lipid trafficking in both directions. This question was addressed through the analysis of double mutants of tgd1-1 or tgd4-3 in genetic mutant backgrounds leading to a defect in lipid fatty acid desaturation either in the ER (fad2) or the plastid (fad6). The fad6 tgd1-1 and fad6 tgd4-3 double mutants showed drastic reductions in the relative levels of polyunsaturated fatty acids and of galactolipids. The growth of these plants and the development of photosynthetic membrane systems were severely compromised, suggesting a disruption in the import of polyunsaturated fatty acid-containing lipid species from the ER. Furthermore, a forward-genetic screen in the tgd1-2 dgd1 mutant background led to the isolation of a new fad6-2 allele with a marked reduction in the amount of digalactosyldiacylglycerol. In contrast, the introduction of fad2, affecting fatty acid desaturation of lipids in the ER, into the two tgd mutant backgrounds did not further decrease the level of fatty acid desaturation in lipids of extraplastidic membranes. These results suggest that the role of TGD proteins is limited to plastid lipid import, but does not extend to lipid export from the plastid to extraplastidic membranes.

AB Antibiotic-resistance genes of bacterial origin are invaluable markers for plant genetic engineering. However, these genes are feared to pose possible risk to human health by horizontal gene transfer from transgenic plants to bacteria, potentially resulting in antibiotic-resistant pathogenic bacteria; this is a considerable regulatory concern in some countries. The Atwbc19 gene, encoding an Arabidopsis thaliana ATP-binding cassette transporter, has been reported to confer resistance to kanamycin specifically as an alternative to bacterial antibiotic-resistance genes. In this report, we transformed hybrid aspen (Populus canescens x P. grandidentata) with the Atwbc19 gene. Unlike Atwbc19-transgenic tobacco that was only resistant to kanamycin, the transgenic Populus plants also showed resistance to three other aminoglycoside antibiotics (neomycin, geneticin, and paromomycin) at comparable levels to plants containing a CaMV35S-nptII cassette. Although it is unknown why the transgenic Populus with the Atwbc19 gene is resistant to all aminoglycoside antibiotics tested, the broad utility of the Atwbc19 gene as a reporter gene is confirmed here in a second dicot species. Because the Atwbc19 gene is plant-ubiquitous, it might serve as an alternative selectable marker to current bacterial antibiotic-resistance marker genes and alleviate the potential risk for horizontal transfer of bacterial-resistance genes in transgenic plants.

TI Sequencing around 5-Hydroxyconiferyl Alcohol-Derived Units in Caffeic

AB Caffeic acid O-methyltransferase (COMT) is a bifunctional enzyme that methylates the 5- and 3-hydroxyl positions on the aromatic ring of monolignol precursors, with a preference for 5-hydroxyconiferaldehyde, on the way to producing sinapyl alcohol. Lignins in COMT-deficient plants contain benzodioxane substructures due to the incorporation of 5-hydroxyconiferyl alcohol (5-OH-CA), as a monomer, into the lignin polymer. The derivatization followed by reductive cleavage method can be used to detect and determine benzodioxane structures because of their total survival under this degradation method. Moreover, partial sequencing information for 5-OH-CA incorporation into lignin can be derived from detection or isolation and structural analysis of the resulting benzodioxane products. Results from a modified derivatization followed by reductive cleavage analysis of COMT-deficient lignins provide evidence that 5-OH-CA cross couples (at its beta-position) with syringyl and guaiacyl units (at their O-4-positions) in the growing lignin polymer and then either coniferyl or sinapyl alcohol, or another 5-hydroxyconiferyl monomer, adds to the resulting 5-hydroxyguaiacyl terminus, producing the benzodioxane. This new terminus may also become etherified by coupling with further monolignols, incorporating the 5-OH-CA integrally into the lignin structure.

AB Shewanellae are gram-negative facultatively anaerobic metal-reducing bacteria commonly found in chemically (i.e., redox) stratified environments. Occupying such niches requires the ability to rapidly acclimate to changes in electron donor/acceptor type and availability; hence, the ability to compete and thrive in such environments must ultimately be reflected in the organization and utilization of electron transfer networks, as well as central and peripheral carbon metabolism. To understand how Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 utilizes its resources, the metabolic network was reconstructed. The resulting network consists of 774 reactions, 783 genes, and 634 unique metabolites and contains biosynthesis pathways for all cell constituents. Using constraint-based modeling, we investigated aerobic growth of S. oneidensis MR-1 on numerous carbon sources. To achieve this, we (i) used experimental data to formulate a biomass equation and estimate cellular ATP requirements, (ii) developed an approach to identify cycles (such as futile cycles and circulations), (iii) classified how reaction usage affects cellular growth, (iv) predicted cellular biomass yields on different carbon sources and compared model predictions to experimental measurements, and (v) used experimental results to refine metabolic fluxes for growth on lactate. The results revealed that aerobic lactate-grown cells of S. oneidensis MR-1 used less efficient enzymes to couple electron transport to proton motive force generation, and possibly operated at least one futile cycle involving malic enzymes. Several examples are provided whereby model predictions were validated by experimental data, in particular the role of serine hydroxymethyltransferase and glycine cleavage system in the metabolism of one-carbon units, and growth on different sources of carbon and energy. This work illustrates how integration of computational and experimental efforts facilitates the understanding of microbial metabolism at a systems level.

AB The functioning of living cells requires efficient and selective transport of materials into and out of the cell, and between different cellular compartments. Much of this transport occurs through nano-scale channels that do not require large scale molecular re-arrangements (such as transition from a 'closed' to an 'open' state) and do not require a direct input of metabolic energy during transport. Nevertheless, these 'always open' channels are highly selective and pass only their cognate molecules, while efficiently excluding all others; indeed, these channels can efficiently transport specific molecules even in the presence of a vast excess of non-specific molecules. Such biological transporters have inspired the creation of artificial nano-channels. These channels can be used as nano-molecular sorters, and can also serve as testbeds for examining modes of biological transport. In this paper, we propose a simple kinetic mechanism that explains how the selectivity of such 'always open' channels can be based on the exclusion of non-specific molecules by specific ones, due to the competition for limited space inside the channel. The predictions of the theory account for the behavior of the nuclear pore complex and of artificial nanopores that mimic its function. This theory provides the basis for future work aimed at understanding the selectivity of various biological transport phenomena.

AB Reported here is the synthesis of a series of polyurethane/POSS nanohybrid elastomers, the characterisation of their thermal stability and degradation behaviour at elevated temperatures using a combination of thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) and thermal volatilisation analysis (TVA). A series of PU elastomer systems have been formulated incorporating varying levels of 1,2-propanediol-heptaisobutyl-POSS (PHIPOSS) as a chain extender unit, replacing butane diol. The bulk thermal stability of the nanohybrid systems has been characterised using TGA. Results indicate that covalent incorporation of POSS into the PU elastomer network increases the non-oxidative thermal stability of the systems. TVA analysis of the thermal degradation of the POSS/PU hybrid elastomers have demonstrated that the hybrid systems are indeed more thermally stable when compared to the unmodified PU matrix; evolving significantly reduced levels of volatile degradation products and exhibiting a similar to 30 degrees C increase in onset degradation temperature. Furthermore, characterisation of the distribution of degradation products from both unmodified and hybrid systems indicate that the inclusion of POSS in the PU network is directly influencing the degradation pathways of both the soft and hard-block components of the elastomers: The POSS/PU hybrid systems show reduced levels of CO, CO2, water and increased levels of THF as products of thermal degradation.

AB The engineering of strained semiconductor materials represents an important aspect of the enhancement in CMOS device performance required for current and future generations of microelectronic technology. An understanding of the mechanical response of the Si channel regions and their environment is key to the prediction and design of device operation. Because of the complexity of the composite geometries associated with microelectronic circuitry, in situ characterization at a submicron resolution is necessary to verify the predicted strain distributions. Of the measurement techniques commonly used for strain characterization, synchrotron-based X-ray microbeam diffraction represents the best nondestructive method to provide spatially resolved information. The mapping of strain distributions in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) features induced by overlying silicon nitride structures and embedded heteroepitaxial features adjacent to SOI device channels are presented. The interaction regions of the SOI strain were observed to extend large distances from the SOI/stressor interfaces leading to significant overlap in the strain distributions at technically relevant dimensions. Experimental data were also compared to several mechanical models to assess their validity in predicting these strain distributions. (C) 2010 International Centre for Diffraction Data.

AB The electrochemical reaction behavior of a commercial Li-ion battery (LiFePO4-based cathode, graphite-based anode) has been measured via in situ neutron diffraction. A multivariate analysis was successfully applied to the neutron diffraction data set facilitating in the determination of Li bearing phases participating in the electrochemical reaction in both the anode and cathode as a function of state-of-charge (SOC). The analysis resulted in quantified phase fraction values for LiFePO4 and FePO4 cathode compounds as well as the identification of staging behavior of Li-6, Li-12, Li-24, and graphite phases in the anode. An additional Li-graphite phase has also been tentatively identified during electrochemical cycling as LiC48 at conditions of similar to 5% to 15% SOC.

TI Distortions and stabilization of simple-cubic calcium at high pressure

AB Ca-III, the first superconducting calcium phase under pressure, was identified as simple-cubic (sc) by previous X-ray diffraction (XRD) experiments. In contrast, all previous theoretical calculations showed that sc had a higher enthalpy than many proposed structures and had an imaginary (unstable) phonon branch. By using our newly developed submicrometer high-pressure single-crystal XRD, cryogenic high-pressure XRD, and theoretical calculations, we demonstrate that Ca-III is neither exactly sc nor any of the lower-enthalpy phases, but sustains the sc-like, primitive unit by a rhombohedral distortion at 300 K and a monoclinic distortion below 30 K. This surprising discovery reveals a scenario that the high-pressure structure of calcium does not go to the zero-temperature global enthalpy minimum but is dictated by high-temperature anharmonicity and low-temperature metastability fine-tuned with phonon stability at the local minimum.

AB ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes are specialized protein machinery able to restructure the nucleosome to make its DNA accessible during transcription, replication and DNA repair. During the past few years structural biologists have defined the architecture and dynamics of some of these complexes using electron microscopy, shedding light on the mechanisms of action of these important assemblies. In this paper we review the existing structural information on the SWI/SNF family of the ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling complexes, and discuss their mechanistic implications.

AB There are numerous applications for small-scale actuation utilizing pyrotechnics and explosives. In certain applications, especially when multiple actuation strokes are needed, or actuator reuse is required, it is desirable to have all gaseous combustion products with no condensed residue in the actuator cylinder. Toward this goal, we have performed experiments on utilizing milligram quantities of high explosives to drive a millimeter-diameter actuator with a stroke of 30 mm. Calculations were performed to select proper material quantities to provide 0.5 J of actuation energy. This was performed utilizing the thermochemical code Cheetah to calculate the impetus for numerous propellants and to select quantities based on estimated efficiencies of these propellants at small scales. Milligram quantities of propellants were loaded into a small-scale actuator and ignited with an ignition increment and hot wire ignition. Actuator combustion chamber pressure was monitored with a pressure transducer and actuator stroke was monitored using a laser displacement meter. Total actuation energy was determined by calculating the kinetic energy of reaction mass motion against gravity. Of the materials utilized, the best performance was obtained with a mixture of 2,4,6,8,10,12-hexanitro-2,4,6,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane (CL-20) and bis-triaminoguanidinium(3,3' dinitroazotriazolate) (TAGDNAT).

TI Sky Variability in the y Band at the LSST Site

AB We have measured spatial and temporal variability in the y-band sky brightness over the course of four nights above Cerro Tololo near Cerro Pachon, Chile, the planned site for the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST). Our wide-angle camera lens provided a 41 degrees field of view and a 145 ''. pixel scale. We minimized potential system throughput differences by deploying a deep-depletion CCD and a filter that matches the proposed LSST y(3) band (970 -1030 nm). Images of the sky exhibited coherent wave structure, attributable to atmospheric gravity waves at 90 km altitude, creating 3%-4% rms spatial sky flux variability on scales of about 2 degrees and larger. Over the course of a full night, the y(3) band additionally showed highly coherent temporal variability of up to a factor of 2 in flux. We estimate the mean absolute sky level to be approximately y(3) = 17.8 mag (Vega), or y(3) = 18.3 mag (AB). While our observations were made through a y(3) filter, the relative sky brightness variability should hold for all proposed y bands, whereas the absolute levels should more strongly depend on spectral response. The spatial variability presents a challenge to wide-field cameras that require illumination correction strategies that make use of stacked sky flats. The temporal variability may warrant an adaptive y band imaging strategy for LSST, to take advantage of times when the sky is darkest.

AB An atmospheric pressure proximal probe thermal desorption sampling method coupled with secondary ionization by electrospray or atmospheric pressure chemical ionization was demonstrated for the mass spectrometric analysis of a diverse set of compounds (dyestuffs, pharmaceuticals, explosives and pesticides) separated on various high-performance thin-layer chromatography plates. Line scans along or through development lanes on the plates were carried out by moving the plate relative to a stationary heated probe positioned close to or just touching the stationary phase surface. Vapors of the compounds thermally desorbed from the surface were drawn into the ionization region of a combined electrospray ionization/atmospheric pressure chemical ionization source where they merged with reagent ions and/or charged droplets from a corona discharge or an electrospray emitter and were ionized. The ionized components were then drawn through the atmospheric pressure sampling orifice into the vacuum region of a triple quadrupole mass spectrometer and detected using full scan, single ion monitoring, or selected reaction monitoring mode. Studies of variable parameters and performance metrics including the proximal probe temperature, gas flow rate into the ionization region, surface scan speed, read-out resolution, detection limits, and surface type are discussed.

AB There is a diversity of human reliability analysis (HRA) methods available for use in assessing human performance within probabilistic risk assessments (PRA). Due to the significant differences in the methods, including the scope, approach, and underlying models, there is a need for an empirical comparison investigating the validity and reliability of the methods. To accomplish this empirical comparison, a benchmarking study comparing and evaluating HRA methods in assessing operator performance in simulator experiments is currently underway. In order to account for as many effects as possible in the construction of this benchmarking study, a literature review was conducted, reviewing past benchmarking studies in the areas of psychology and risk assessment. A number of lessons learned through these studies is presented in order to aid in the design of future HRA benchmarking endeavors. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB A compact, versatile device for vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) beam characterization is presented. It combines the functionalities of a VUV spectrometer and a VUV beam profiler in one unit and is entirely supported by a standard DN200 CF flange. The spectrometer employs a silicon nitride transmission nanograting in combination with a microchannel plate-based imaging detector. This enables the simultaneous recording of wavelengths ranging from 10 to 80 nm with a resolution of 0.25-0.13 nm. Spatial beam profiles with diameters up to 10 mm are imaged with 0.1 mm resolution. The setup is equipped with an in-vacuum translation stage that allows for in situ switching between the spectrometer and beam profiler modes and for moving the setup out of the beam. The simple, robust design of the device is well suited for nonintrusive routine characterization of emerging laboratory- and accelerator-based VUV light sources. Operation of the device is demonstrated by characterizing the output of a femtosecond high-order harmonic generation light source. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3443575]

AB The electrical resistivity values for a series of pure and doped (Co, Mn, Al) ZnO epitaxial films grown by pulsed laser deposition were measured with equipment designed for determining the direct current resistivity of high resistance samples. Room-temperature resistances ranging from 7 x 10(1) to 4 x 10(8) Omega/sq were measured on vacuum-reduced cobalt-doped ZnO, (AI,Co) co-doped ZnO, pure cobalt-doped ZnO, Mn-doped ZnO, and undoped ZnO. Using a four-point collinear geometry with gold spring-loaded contacts, resistivities were measured from 295 to 5 K for resistances of < similar to 10(12) Omega/sq. In addition, magnetoresistance and Hall effect were measured as a function of temperature for select samples. Throughout the investigation, samples were also measured on commercially available instrumentation with good agreement. The challenges of transport measurements on high resistivity samples are discussed, along with some offered solutions to those challenges. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.

TI Reflectance changes during shock-induced phase transformations in metals
SO REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS
LA English
DT Article
ID WAVE; SAPPHIRE; ALPHA; IRON
AB In performing shock wave experiments to study the characteristics of metals at high pressures, wave profiles (i.e., velocity measurements of the surface of the sample) are an established and useful way to study phase transformations. For example, a sudden change in the velocity or its slope can occur when the phase transformation induces a large volume change leading to a change in particle velocity. Allowing the shock to release into a transparent window that is in contact with the sample surface allows the study of conditions away from the shock Hugoniot. However, in cases where the wave profile is not definitive, an additional phase-transformation diagnostic is often useful. Changes in the electronic structure of the atoms in the crystal offer opportunities to develop new phase-change diagnostics. We have studied optical reflectance changes for several shock-induced phase transformations to see whether reflectance changes might be a generally applicable phase-transformation diagnostic. Shocks were produced by direct contact with explosives or with impacts from guns. Optical wavelengths for the reflectance measurements ranged from 355 to 700 nm. We studied samples of tin, iron, gallium, and cerium as each passed through a phase transformation during shock loading and, if observable, a reversion upon unloading. In addition to metals with complicated phase diagrams, we also measured dynamic, pressure-induced changes in the reflectivity of aluminum. For rapid solid-solid phase changes in tin and iron, we saw small changes in the surface scattering characteristics, perhaps from voids or rough areas frozen into the surface of the sample as it transformed to a new crystal structure. For melt in gallium and cerium, we saw changes in the wavelength dependence of the reflectance, and we surmise that these changes may result from changes in the crystal electronic structure. It appears that reflectance measurements can be a significant part of a larger suite of diagnostics to search for difficult-to-detect phase transformations. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.

TI Design, implementation, and testing of a cryogenic loading capability on

SO REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS
LA English
DT Article
AB A novel capability was designed, implemented, and tested for in situ neutron diffraction measurements during loading at cryogenic temperatures on the spectrometer for materials research at temperature and stress at Los Alamos National Laboratory. This capability allowed for the application of dynamic compressive forces of up to 250 kN on standard samples controlled at temperatures between 300 and 90 K. The approach comprised of cooling thermally isolated compression platens that in turn conductively cooled the sample in an aluminum vacuum chamber which was nominally transparent to the incident and diffracted neutrons. The cooling/heat rate and final temperature were controlled by regulating the flow of liquid nitrogen in channels inside the platens that were connected through bellows to the mechanical actuator of the load frame and by heaters placed on the platens. Various performance parameters of this system are reported here. The system was used to investigate deformation in Ni-Ti-Fe shape memory alloys at cryogenic temperatures and preliminary results are presented. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.

AB The ribosome is a massive ribonucleoprotein complex (similar to 2.4 MDa) that utilizes large-scale structural fluctuations to produce unidirectional protein synthesis. Accommodation is a key conformational change during transfer RNA (tRNA) selection that allows movement of tRNA into the ribosome. Here, we address the structure-function relationship that governs accommodation using all-atom molecular simulations and single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer (smFRET). Simulations that employ an all-atom, structure-based (G (o) over bar -like) model illuminate the interplay between configurational entropy and effective enthalpy during the accommodation process. This delicate balance leads to spontaneous reversible accommodation attempts, which are corroborated by smFRET measurements. The dynamics about the endpoints of accommodation (the A/T and A/A conformations) obtained from structure-based simulations are validated by multiple 100-200 ns explicit-solvent simulations (3.2 million atoms for a cumulative 1.4 mu s), and previous crystallographic analysis. We find that the configurational entropy of the 3'-CCA end of aminoacyl-tRNA resists accommodation, leading to a multistep accommodation process that encompasses a distribution of parallel pathways. The calculated mechanism is robust across simulation methods and protocols, suggesting that the structure of the accommodation corridor imposes stringent limitations on the accessible pathways. The identified mechanism and observed parallel pathways establish an atomistic framework for interpreting a large body of biochemical data and demonstrate that conformational changes during translation occur through a stochastic trial-and-error process, rather than in concerted lock-step motions.

AB With the help of a high-speed camera, shear band propagation in a Zr-based metallic glass during compression was captured and images were analyzed using a digital image correlation method. The shear velocity was calculated and further compared with that measured from using strain gages. The images also showed that localized shear occurs in a simultaneous fashion, i.e. shear band operates simultaneously across the entire shear plane, rather than in a progressive manner.

AB The initial instants of spreading in high-temperature dissolutive systems (Cu and Au on Ni) are recorded using high-speed video and a drop transfer set-up. The results suggest the existence of an initial regime where the advance of the triple junction is too fast compared with dissolution and spreading occurs on a flat unreacted surface. The analysis indicates that spreading is then controlled by the triple-line friction. The calculated friction coefficients are similar to those for non-reactive high-temperature systems.

AB Wind field analysis from synthetic aperture radar images allows the estimation of wind direction and speed based on image descriptors. In this paper, we propose a frame work to automate wind direction retrieval based on wavelet decomposition associated with spectral processing. We extend existing undecimated wavelet transform approaches, by including a trous with B(3) spline scaling function, in addition to other wavelet bases as Gabor and Mexican-hat. The purpose is to extract more reliable directional information, when wind speed values range from 5 to 10 ms(-1). Using C-band empirical models, associated with the estimated directional information, we calculate local wind speed values and compare our results with QuikSCAT scatterometer data. The proposed approach has potential application in the evaluation of oil spills and wind farms.

AB Identifying the transformation of amino sugars in soils is essential in understanding microbial contribution to soil organic matter turnover and sequestration. Using a recently developed method, combining gas chromatograph/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) with laboratory incubation of substrates containing (13)C or (15)N isotopes, we were able to trace isotopic changes in amino sugar compounds. This allows us to quantitatively evaluate C or N enrichment in amino sugars during transformation in soils using the fragment (F) abundance ratio of m/z F + n to F(n is original skeleton atom number in each fragment). However, there is still lack of detail structural and substitutional information for each ion fragment. In order to improve the interpretation and increase our ability to study amino sugar turnover, we grew labeled amino sugars in lab-cultured organisms. We spectrometrically investigated the ion structures and original skeleton C number (mass shift n) in major ion fragments based on applying multiple representative isotope labels. Our results categorically confirm that previously made assumptions were correct regarding the substitutional number "n" of the glucosamine (He et al., 2006). Our study also added valuable structural information for aldononitrile acetate derivatized glucosamine and muramic acid upon electron impact ionization in MS. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

ID SPECTRAL OPTICAL-PROPERTIES; SOLAR REFLECTANCE; PIGMENTS
AB The widespread use of solar-reflective roofing materials can save energy, mitigate urban heat islands and slow global warming by cooling the roughly 20% of the urban surface that is roofed. In this study we created prototype solar-reflective nonwhite concrete tile and asphalt shingle roofing materials using a two-layer spray coating process intended to maximize both solar reflectance and factory-line throughput. Each layer is a thin, quick-drying, pigmented latex paint based on either acrylic or a poly(vinylidene fluoride)/acrylic blend. The first layer is a titanium dioxide rutile white basecoat that increases the solar reflectance of a gray-cement concrete tile from 0.18 to 0.79, and that of a shingle surfaced with bare granules from 0.06 to 0.62. The second layer is a "cool" color topcoat with weak near-infrared (NIR) absorption and/or strong NIR backscattering. Each layer dries within seconds, potentially allowing a factory line to pass first under the white spray, then under the color spray. We combined a white basecoat with monocolor topcoats in various shades of red, brown, green and blue to prepare 24 cool colored prototype tiles and 24 cool colored prototypes shingles. The solar reflectances of the tiles ranged from 0.26 (dark brown; CIELAB lightness value L*=29) to 0.57 (light green; L*=76); those of the shingles ranged from 0.18 (dark brown; L*=26) to 0.34 (light green; L*=68). Over half of the tiles had a solar reflectance of at least 0.40, and over half of the shingles had a solar reflectance of at least 0.25. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

ID DESIGN OPTIMIZATION; RELIABILITY; UNCERTAINTY; SYSTEMS
AB Decision-making under uncertainty is particularly challenging in the case of multidisciplinary, multilevel system optimization problems. Subsystem interactions cause strong couplings, which may be amplified by uncertainty. Thus, effective coordination strategies can be particularly beneficial. Analytical target cascading (ATC) is a deterministic optimization method for multilevel hierarchical system design that has been extended to probabilistic formulations. Solving the probabilistic optimization problem requires propagation of uncertainty, namely, evaluating or estimating the output distributions, a task that is computationally expensive for highly nonlinear functions. This article presents the use of sequential linear programming (SLP) for probabilistic ATC. By linearizing and solving a problem successively, the strategy takes advantage of the simplicity and ease of uncertainty propagation for a linear system under the assumption that inputs are normally distributed or can be transformed into equivalent normal distributions. A suspension strategy, developed for a deterministic SLP coordination strategy for ATC, is applied to reduce computational cost by suspending the analyses of subsystems that do not need considerable redesign. The accuracy and effectiveness of the proposed coordination strategy is demonstrated with several numerical examples.

AB We compare the temperature dependences of the in-plane London penetration depth (Delta lambda(ab)(T)) for several Ba(Fe1-xTMx)(2)As-2 (TM = Co, Ni, Pd, Co + Cu) superconductors at high concentration of electrons, ne, added per Fe site. We show that regardless of the transition metal TM, for n(e) >= 0.12, the penetration depth has a power-law temperature dependence Delta lambda(L)(T) proportional to T-n, but with the exponent n approximate to 1.65, thus significantly lower than the value n 2 >= previously reported for lower electron concentrations. On doping with electrons from the 3d shells, the magnitude of the variation with temperature of Delta lambda(L)(T) is larger for Ni substitution than for Co substitution, and larger for Co + Cu co-doping than for Ni co-doping. However, comparing the effect of 3d and 4d electrons, for the isovalent elements Ni and Pd respectively, we found that the rates of change in penetration depth with temperature are nearly identical for the two compounds.

AB Synchrotron-based X-ray photoemission electron microscopy (X-PEEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), time of flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) have been used to visualize and characterize plasma polymerized acrylic acid (ppAA) and poly ethylene oxide (PEO)-like microstructures. Micropatterned microstructures have been fabricated with electron-beam lithography to obtain contrasted ppAA/PEO-like structures. A surface area of 500 mu m x 500 mu m was patterned with arrays of 5 mu m diameter circles and 500 mu m x 5 mu m lines. Samples have been analyzed before and after immersion of ubiquitin protein solutions. AFM and X-PEEM results indicated that the protein adsorbed preferentially on the ppAA regions for both circular and line patterns. For both circular and line patterns, the protein preferentially adsorbed to the ppAA regions. Copyright (C) 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB The impact of solution exposure on the charging properties of oxide coatings on Fe metal-core oxide-shell nanoparticles has been examined by sample biasing during XPS measurements. The Fe nanoparticles were suspended in relatively unreactive acetone and analyzed after particles containing solutions were deposited on SiO(2)/Si or Au substrates. The particle and substrate combinations were subjected to +/- 10V d.c. or +/- 5V a.c., biasing in the form of square wave (SQW) pulses. The samples experienced variable degrees of charging for which low-energy electrons at similar to 1 eV, 20 mu A and low-energy Ar(+) ions were used to minimize it. Application of d.c. bias and/or SQW pulses significantly influences the extent of charging, which is utilized to gather additional analytical information about the sample under investigation. This approach allows separation of otherwise overlapping peaks. Accordingly, the O1s peaks of the silicon oxide substrate, the iron oxide nanoparticles, and that of the casting solvent can be separated from each other. Similarly, the C1s peak belonging to the solvent can be separated from that of the adventitious carbon. The charging shifts of the iron nanoparticles are strongly influenced by the solvent to which the particles were exposed. Hence, acetone exhibited the largest shift, water the smallest, and methanol in between. Dynamical measurements performed by application of the voltage stress in the form of SQW pulses provides information about the time constants of the processes involved, which leads us to postulate that these charging properties we probe in these systems stem mainly from ionic movement(s).

AB A platform-independent application for the analysis of XPS data has been developed with the goal of providing rapid data processing of survey spectra at a more sophisticated level than is typically performed. This application uses an expert systems approach to invoke a set of rules that are applied to the data. The application then uses simple, automated data analysis calculations to generate information on the thickness of any carbon contamination layer, atomic composition corrected for carbon contamination, and segregation (layering) information as soon as the data are collected. Batch processing and automated report generation are features incorporated into this application that would also improve the throughput for data analysis, resulting in substantial labor reduction and cost savings.

AB Synchrotron radiation based Fourier-transform infrared (SR-FTIR) microspectroscopy is an emerging technique, which is increasingly employed in analytical sciences. This technique combines FTIR spectroscopy (namely specific identification of molecular groups within a variety of environments: organic/inorganic, crystallized/amorphous, solid/liquid/gas) with high brightness, and therefore small spot size and faster acquisition of high-quality spectral imaging data from a synchrotron light source.
In this article, we review several recent applications of SR-FTIR that have led to much of the improved analytical capabilities. Performing analytical science at large-scale facilities allows one to access state-of-the-art equipment and capabilities, receive expert assistance from the facility staff, and have the possibility of combining SR-FTIR microscopy with other synchrotron-based X-ray microimaging techniques.

AB Most interesting materials in nature are heterogeneous, so it is useful to have analytical techniques with spatial resolution sufficient to resolve these heterogeneities. This article presents the basics of X-ray photon-in/photon-out chemical imaging. This family of methods allows one to derive images reflecting the chemical state of a given element in a complex sample, at micron or deep sub-micron scale. X-ray chemical imaging is relatively non-destructive and element-selective, and requires minimal sample preparation. The article presents the basic concepts and some considerations of data taking and data analysis, along with some examples. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Cellular heterogeneity that arises from stochastic expression of genes, proteins and metabolites is a fundamental principle of cell biology, but single cell analysis has been beyond the capability of 'omics' technology. This is rapidly changing with the recent examples of single cell genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and metabolomics. The rate of change is expected to accelerate owing to emerging technologies that range from micro/nanofluidics to microfabricated interfaces for mass spectrometry to third- and fourth-generation automated DNA sequencers. As described in this review, single cell analysis is the new frontier in omics, and single cell omics has the potential to transform systems biology through new discoveries derived from cellular heterogeneity.

AB We describe a new design for an aberration-corrected low energy electron microscope (LEEM) and photo electron emission microscope (PEEM), equipped with an in-line electron energy filter. The chromatic and spherical aberrations of the objective lens are corrected with an electrostatic electron mirror that provides independent control over the chromatic and spherical aberration coefficients C(c) and C(3), as well as the mirror focal length, to match and correct the aberrations of the objective lens. For LEEM (PEEM) the theoretical resolution is calculated to be similar to 1.5 nm (similar to 4 nm). Unlike previous designs, this instrument makes use of two magnetic prism arrays to guide the electron beam from the sample to the electron mirror, removing chromatic dispersion in front of the mirror by symmetry. The aberration correction optics was retrofitted to an uncorrected instrument with a base resolution of 4.1 nm in LEEM. Initial results in LEEM show an improvement in resolution to similar to 2 nm.

AB The bright field contrast transfer function is one of the most useful concepts in conventional transmission electron microscopy. However, the electron Ronchigram contrast transfer function, as derived by Cowley, is inherently more complicated since it is not isoplanatic. Here, we derive a local contrast transfer function for small patches in a Ronchigram and demonstrate its utility for the direct measurement of aberrations from single Ronchigrams of an amorphous film. We describe the measurement of aberrations from both simulated and experimental images and elucidate the effects due to higher-order aberrations, separating those arising from the pre- and post-sample optics, and partial coherence.

TI Streaming compression of hexahedral meshes
SO VISUAL COMPUTER

DE Large meshes; Streaming compression; Hexahedral meshes; Cell data
compression
AB We describe a method for streaming compression of hexahedral meshes. Given an interleaved stream of vertices and hexahedra our coder incrementally compresses the mesh in the presented order. Our coder is extremely memory efficient when the input stream also documents when vertices are referenced for the last time (i.e. when it contains topological finalization tags). Our coder then continuously releases and reuses data structures that no longer contribute to compressing the remainder of the stream. This means in practice that our coder has only a small fraction of the whole mesh in memory at any time. We can therefore compress very large meshes-even meshes that do not fit in memory.
Compared to traditional, non-streaming approaches that load the entire mesh and globally reorder it during compression, our algorithm trades a less compact compressed representation for significant gains in speed, memory, and I/O efficiency. For example, on the 456k hexahedra "blade" mesh, our coder is twice as fast and uses 88 times less memory (only 3.1 MB) with the compressed file increasing about 3% in size. We also present the first scheme for predictive compression of properties associated with hexahedral cells.

AB Micromixers, UV-curable epoxy traces printed on the surface of a reverse osmosis membrane, were tested on a cross-flow system to determine their success at reducing biofouling. Biofouling was quantified by measuring the rate of permeate flux decline and the median bacteria concentration on the surface of the membrane (as determined by fluorescence intensity counts due to nucleic acid stains as measured by hyperspectral imaging). The micromixers do not appear to significantly increase the pressure needed to maintain the same initial permeate flux and salt rejection. Chevrons helped prevent biofouling of the membranes in comparison with blank membranes. The chevron design controlled where the bacteria adhered to the membrane surface. However, blank membranes with spacers had a lower rate of permeate flux decline than the membranes with chevrons despite having greater bacteria concentrations on their surfaces. with better optimization of the micromixer design, the micromixers could be used to control where the bacteria will adhere to the surface and create a more biofouling resistant membrane that will help to drive down the cost of water treatment.

AB Equations describing the electroluminescence (EL) intensity as a function of material properties are derived for thin film solar cells and experimentally validated using Cu(In,Ga)Se(2) solar cells. EL intensity at constant voltage is controlled by the electronic properties of the neutral bulk even when the diode current is controlled by recombination in the space charge region. Using a combination of techniques, it is found that recombination in the quasineutral bulk does not correlate with recombination in the space charge region. Differences between EL measurements on thin film cells and crystalline silicon cells are discussed including the effects of secondary barriers. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.

anisotropy; platinum
AB Bottom pinned exchange bias systems of IrMn/CoFe and IrMn/CoFeB on CoFe seed layers were studied. Enhanced exchange anisotropy has been observed for IrMn/CoFeB samples annealed at 350 degrees C. The ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic layers of both samples are polycrystalline and textured {110} for the CoFe and CoFeB, and {111} for IrMn. Results demonstrated that the enhanced exchange anisotropy in the IrMn/CoFeB system is closely associated with the increased uncompensated interfacial spins as evidenced by the enhanced Mn x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) signal strength. A quantitative correlation between the Mn XMCD signal and the exchange anisotropy constant J(k) was observed. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3442480]

AB We demonstrate temporal group delays in coherently coupled high-Q multicavity photonic crystals, in an all-optical analog to electromagnetically induced transparency. We report deterministic control of the group delay up to 4x the single cavity lifetime in our room-temperature chip. Supported by three-dimensional numerical simulations and theoretical analyses, our multipump beam approach enables control of the multicavity resonances and intercavity phase, in both single and double transparency peaks. The standing-wave wavelength-scale photon localization allows direct scalability for chip-scale optical pulse trapping and coupled-cavity quantum electrodynamics.

Here, the frequency dependent strain response of one-dimensional electrochemically active system to periodic electric bias is analyzed. The sensitivity and resolution of electrochemical strain measurements are compared to the current-based electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The resolution and detection limits of interferometric and atomic force microscopy based systems for probing electrochemical reactions on the nanoscale are analyzed.

AB We report an investigation of two photon ultraviolet (UV) irradiation induced permanent n-type doping of amorphous InGaZnO (a-IGZO) at room temperature. The photoinduced excess electrons were donated to change the Fermi-level to a conduction band edge under the UV irradiation, owing to the hole scavenging process at the oxide interface. The use of optically n-doped a-IGZO channel increased the carrier density to similar to 10(18) cm(-3) from the background level of 10(16) cm(-3), as well as the comprehensive enhancement upon UV irradiation of a-IGZO thin film transistor parameters, such as an on-off current ratio at similar to 10(8) and field-effect mobility at 22.7 cm(2)/V s.

AB Due to its large band gap (3.2 eV), TiO2 cannot absorb sun light effectively. To reduce its band gap, various approaches have been attempted; most of them are using doping to modify its band structure. Using first-principles band structure calculations, we show that unlike the rutile phases, the band gap of TiO2 in the anatase phase can be effectively reduced by applying stress along a soft direction. We propose that this approach of tuning the band gap by applying stress along soft direction of a layered semiconductor is general and should be applicable to other anisotropic materials.

AB An extended structure zone diagram is proposed that includes energetic deposition, characterized by a large flux of ions typical for deposition by filtered cathodic arcs and high power impulse magnetron sputtering. The axes are comprised of a generalized homologous temperature, the normalized kinetic energy flux, and the net film thickness, which can be negative due to ion etching. It is stressed that the number of primary physical parameters affecting growth by far exceeds the number of available axes in such a diagram and therefore it can only provide an approximate and simplified illustration of the growth condition-structure relationships.

AB Ternary Pt-Rh-SnO2/C electrocatalysts with the atomic ratio Pt:Rh:Sn =3:1:x, where x varies from 2 to 6, were synthesized using the modified polyol method followed by thermal treatment. Several techniques used to characterize these electrocatalysts showed they were composed of homogeneous PtRh alloy and SnO2, having all three constituents coexisting in single nanoparticles with the average particle size around 1.4 nm and a narrow size distribution. While all the electrocatalysts investigated exhibited high catalytic activity for ethanol oxidation, the most active one had the composition with the Pt:Rh:Sn =3:1:4 atomic ratio. These ternary-electrocatalysts effectively split the C-C bond in ethanol at room temperature in acidic solutions, which is verified using the in situ IRRAS technique. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

AB We present a candidate mechanism for the energization of super-thermal electrons during magnetic reconnection in the Earth's magnetotail. By analyzing in-situ measurements of electron distribution functions we characterize the relative energy gain of the electrons as a function of energy, Delta epsilon(epsilon). For all the events considered the high energy part of Delta epsilon(epsilon) is nearly independent of epsilon. This is the signature of energization in an acceleration potential, Phi(parallel to), which is caused by parallel electric fields in the vicinity of the reconnection region. The same acceleration mechanism is also documented for a kinetic simulation of reconnection. Citation: Egedal, J., A. Le, Y. Zhu, W. Daughton, M. Oieroset, T. Phan, R. P. Lin, and J. P.

TI Biochemical Basis of the Interaction between Cystic Fibrosis
Transmembrane Conductance Regulator and Immunoglobulin-like Repeats of

AB Mutations in the chloride channel cystic fibrosis transmembrane regulator (CFTR) cause cystic fibrosis, a genetic disorder characterized by defects in CFTR biosynthesis, localization to the cell surface, or activation by regulatory factors. It was discovered recently that surface localization of CFTR is stabilized by an interaction between the CFTR N terminus and the multidomain cytoskeletal protein filamin. The details of the CFTR-filamin interaction, however, are unclear. Using x-ray crystallography, we show how the CFTR N terminus binds to immunoglobulin-like repeat 21 of filamin A (FlnA-Ig21). CFTR binds to beta-strands C and D of FlnA-Ig21 using backbone-backbone hydrogen bonds, a linchpin serine residue, and hydrophobic side-chain packing. We use NMR to determine that the CFTR N terminus also binds to several other immunoglobulin-like repeats from filamin A in vitro. Our structural data explain why the cystic fibrosis-causing S13F mutation disrupts CFTR-filamin interaction. We show that FlnA-Ig repeats transfected into cultured Calu-3 cells disrupt CFTR-filamin interaction and reduce surface levels of CFTR. Our findings suggest that filamin A stabilizes surface CFTR by anchoring it to the actin cytoskeleton through interactions with multiple filamin Ig repeats. Such an interaction mode may allow filamins to cluster multiple CFTR molecules and to promote colocalization of CFTR and other filamin-binding proteins in the apical plasma membrane of epithelial cells.

AB We apply the self-consistent polymer reference interaction site model (SC/PRISM) to liquid state calculations of the chain dimensions in polymer melts with added nanoparticle fillers. The nanoparticles are assumed to be smaller than the polymer radius of gyration and are attracted to the polymer so that they are miscible. We find that the nanoparticles perturb the chain dimensions, causing an increase in the radius of gyration with increasing nanoparticle volume fractions, assuming reasonable interaction energies between the various components. The magnitude of the expansion is in qualitative agreement with recent neutron scattering results and suggests that the SC/PRISM approach is reasonable when dealing with these apparent nonlinear phenomena present in nanocomposites in the protein limit.

AB Time-dependent close-coupling, R-matrix double pseudo-states and distorted-wave methods are used to calculate the electron-impact double ionization cross section for the 1s(2)2s(2) ground state of the Be atom. At 1.5 times the double ionization threshold energy, the first two non-perturbative methods predict a cross section of approximately 1.0 x 10(-18) cm(2) for the direct double ionization of the 2s(2) subshell. At 15.0 times the double ionization threshold energy, the perturbative distorted-wave method predicts a cross section of approximately 2.0 x 10(-18) cm(2) for the indirect single ionization of the 1s(2) subshell followed by autoionization. Thus for the Be atom, the peak of the double ionization cross section is approximately two orders of magnitude smaller than the previously well-determined peak of the single ionization cross section.

AB Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides have emerged as key signals of the cellular redox state. Yet the structural basis for allosteric gene regulation by the ratio of reduced NADH to oxidized NAD(+) is poorly understood. A key sensor among Gram-positive bacteria, Rex represses alternative respiratory gene expression until a limited oxygen supply elevates the intracellular NADH:NAD(+) ratio. Here we investigate the molecular mechanism for NADH/NAD(+) sensing among Rex family members by determining structures of Thermus aquaticus Rex bound to (1) NAD(+), (2) DNA operator, and (3) without ligand. Comparison with the Rex/NADH complex reveals that NADH releases Rex from the DNA site following a 400 closure between the dimeric subunits. Complementary site-directed mutagenesis experiments implicate highly conserved residues in NAD-responsive DNA-binding activity. These rare views of a redox sensor in action establish a means for slight differences in the nicotinamide charge, pucker, and orientation to signal the redox state of the cell.

AB The effect of average particle sizes on basic macroscopic properties and heat transfer performance of alpha-SiC/water nanofluids was investigated. The average particle sizes, calculated from the specific surface area of nanoparticles, were varied from 16 to 90 nm. Nanofluids with larger particles of the same material and volume concentration provide higher thermal conductivity and lower viscosity increases than those with smaller particles because of the smaller solid/liquid interfacial area of larger particles. It was also demonstrated that the viscosity of water-based nanofluids can be significantly decreased by pH of the suspension independently from the thermal conductivity. Heat transfer coefficients were measured and compared to the performance of base fluids as well as to nanofluids reported in the literature. Criteria for evaluation of the heat transfer performance of nanofluids are discussed and optimum directions in nanofluid development are suggested.

AB In quantum chromodynamics, a gauge field configuration with nonzero topological charge generates a difference between the number of left- and right-handed quarks. When a (electromagnetic) magnetic field is added to this configuration, an electromagnetic current is induced along the magnetic field; this is called the chiral magnetic effect. We compute this current in the presence of a color-flux tube possessing topological charge, with a magnetic field applied perpendicular to it. We argue that this situation is realized at the early stage of relativistic heavy-ion collisions.

AB A general method is presented to unfold band structures of first-principles supercell calculations with proper spectral weight, allowing easier visualization of the electronic structure and the degree of broken translational symmetry. The resulting unfolded band structures contain additional rich information from the Kohn-Sham orbitals, and absorb the structure factor that makes them ideal for a direct comparison with angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy experiments. With negligible computational expense via the use of Wannier functions, this simple method has great practical value in the studies of a wide range of materials containing impurities, vacancies, lattice distortions, or spontaneous long-range orders.

In this cavity, the peak amplitude of the rf electric field that points into either longitudinal face can be smaller than the peak field which points out. Computations show that a structure using such cavities might support an accelerating gradient about 47% greater than that for a structure using similar single-mode cavities, without an increase in breakdown probability.

AB Bulk metallic glasses are brittle and fail with no plastic strain at room temperature once shear bands propagate. How do metallic glasses deform when the size is less than that of shear bands? Here we show that Al(90)Fe(5)Ce(5) metallic glass with a size <20 nm can be extremely elongated to similar to 200%. Remarkably, even an atomic chain was formed after sample necking, which was never observed in metallic glasses. The unexpected ductility may originate from the fast surface diffusion and the absence of shear band formation, and may guide the development of ductile metallic glasses for engineering applications.

AB The exchange bias of epitaxially grown CoO/Fe/Ag(001) was investigated using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism and x-ray magnetic linear dichroism (XMLD) techniques. A direct XMLD measurement on the CoO layer during the Fe magnetization reversal shows that the CoO compensated spins are rotatable at thinner thickness and frozen at larger thickness. By a quantitative determination of the rotatable and frozen CoO spins as a function of the CoO film thickness, we find the remarkable result that the exchange bias is well established before frozen spins are detectable in the CoO film. We further show that the rotatable and frozen CoO spins are uniformly distributed in the CoO film.

AB By correlating room temperature conductive atomic force microscopy with low temperature electrostatic force microscopy images of the same sample region, we demonstrate that nanoscale electric conduction between a sharp tip and the surface of ferroelectric HoMnO3 is intrinsically modulated by the polarization of ferroelectric domains. Conductance spectra reveal that the electric conduction is described by polarization-induced Schottky-like rectification at low bias, but dominated by a space-charge limited conduction mechanism at high bias. Our observation demonstrates visualization of ferroelectric domain structure by electric conduction, which may be used for nondestructive readout of nanoscale ferroelectric memories and/or ferroelectric sensors.

TI Band Narrowing and Mott Localization in Iron Oxychalcogenides

DT Article
ID EXCHANGE INTERACTIONS; SUPERCONDUCTIVITY
AB Bad metal properties have motivated a description of the parent iron pnictides as correlated metals on the verge of Mott localization. What has been unclear is whether interactions can push these and related compounds to the Mott-insulating side of the phase diagram. Here we consider the iron oxychalcogenides La2O2Fe2O(Se, S)(2), which contain an Fe square lattice with an expanded unit cell. We show theoretically that they contain enhanced correlation effects through band narrowing compared to LaOFeAs, and we provide experimental evidence that they are Mott insulators with moderate charge gaps. We also discuss the magnetic properties in terms of a Heisenberg model with frustrating J(1)-J(2)-J'(2) exchange interactions on a "doubled'' checkerboard lattice.

AB The thermodynamic equilibrium state of crystalline materials is a single crystal; however, polycrystalline grain growth almost always stops before this state is reached. Although typically attributed to solute drag, grain-growth stagnation occurs, even in high-purity materials. Recent studies indicate that grain boundaries undergo thermal roughening associated with an abrupt mobility change, so that at typical annealing temperatures, polycrystals will contain both smooth (slow) and rough (fast) boundaries. Mesoscale grain-growth models, validated by large-scale polycrystalline molecular dynamics simulations, show that even small fractions of smooth, slow boundaries can stop grain growth. We conclude that grain-boundary roughening provides an alternate stagnation mechanism that applies even to high-purity materials.

AB Background: Fermentations using Escherichia coli KO11, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 424A(LNH-ST), and Zymomonas mobilis AX101 are compared side-by-side on corn steep liquor (CSL) media and the water extract and enzymatic hydrolysate from ammonia fiber expansion (AFEX)-pretreated corn stover.
Results: The three ethanologens are able produce ethanol from a CSL-supplemented co-fermentation at a metabolic yield, final concentration and rate greater than 0.42 g/g consumed sugars, 40 g/L and 0.7 g/L/h (0-48 h), respectively. Xylose-only fermentation of the tested ethanologenic bacteria are five to eight times faster than 424A(LNH-ST) in the CSL fermentation.
All tested strains grow and co-ferment sugars at 15% w/v solids loading equivalent of ammonia fiber explosion (AFEX)pretreated corn stover water extract. However, both KO11 and 424A(LNH-ST) exhibit higher growth robustness than AX101. In 18% w/w solids loading lignocellulosic hydrolysate from AFEX pretreatment, complete glucose fermentations can be achieved at a rate greater than 0.77 g/L/h. In contrast to results from fermentation in CSL, S. cerevisiae 424A(LNH-ST) consumed xylose at the greatest extent and rate in the hydrolysate compared to the bacteria tested.
Conclusions: Our results confirm that glucose fermentations among the tested strains are effective even at high solids loading (18% by weight). However, xylose consumption in the lignocellulosic hydrolysate is the major bottleneck affecting overall yield, titer or rate of the process. In comparison, Saccharomyces cerevisiae 424A(LNH-ST) is the most relevant strains for industrial production for its ability to ferment both glucose and xylose from undetoxified and unsupplemented hydrolysate from AFEX-pretreated corn stover at high yield.

AB Background: In recent years genome sequencing has been used to characterize new bacterial species, a method of analysis available as a result of improved methodology and reduced cost. Included in a constantly expanding list of Vibrio species are several that have been reclassified as novel members of the Vibrionaceae. The description of two putative new Vibrio species, Vibrio sp. RC341 and Vibrio sp. RC586 for which we propose the names V. metecus and V. parilis, respectively, previously characterized as non-toxigenic environmental variants of V. cholerae is presented in this study.
Results: Based on results of whole-genome average nucleotide identity (ANI), average amino acid identity (AAI), rpoB similarity, MLSA, and phylogenetic analysis, the new species are concluded to be phylogenetically closely related to V. cholerae and V. mimicus. Vibrio sp. RC341 and Vibrio sp. RC586 demonstrate features characteristic of V. cholerae and V. mimicus, respectively, on differential and selective media, but their genomes show a 12 to 15% divergence (88 to 85% ANI and 92 to 91% AAI) compared to the sequences of V. cholerae and V. mimicus genomes (ANI <95% and AAI <96% indicative of separate species). Vibrio sp. RC341 and Vibrio sp. RC586 share 2104 ORFs (59%) and 2058 ORFs (56%) with the published core genome of V. cholerae and 2956 (82%) and 3048 ORFs (84%) with V. mimicus MB-451, respectively. The novel species share 2926 ORFs with each other (81% Vibrio sp. RC341 and 81% Vibrio sp. RC586). Virulence-associated factors and genomic islands of V. cholerae and V. mimicus, including VSP-I and II, were found in these environmental Vibrio spp.
Conclusions: Results of this analysis demonstrate these two environmental vibrios, previously characterized as variant V. cholerae strains, are new species which have evolved from ancestral lineages of the V. cholerae and V. mimicus clade. The presence of conserved integration loci for genomic islands as well as evidence of horizontal gene transfer between these two new species, V. cholerae, and V. mimicus suggests genomic islands and virulence factors are transferred between these species.

TI Macrophysical and optical properties of midlatitude cirrus clouds from

AB Ground-based lidar and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) data sets gathered over four midlatitude sites, two U. S. and two French sites, are used to evaluate the consistency of cloud macrophysical and optical property climatologies that can be derived by such data sets. The consistency in average cloud height (both base and top height) between the CALIOP and ground data sets ranges from -0.4 km to +0.5 km. The cloud geometrical thickness distributions vary significantly between the different data sets, due in part to the original vertical resolutions of the lidar profiles. Average cloud geometrical thicknesses vary from 1.2 to 1.9 km, i.e., by more than 50%. Cloud optical thickness distributions in subvisible, semitransparent, and moderate intervals differ by more than 50% between ground-and space-based data sets. The cirrus clouds with optical thickness below 0.1 (not included in historical cloud climatologies) represent 30-50% of the nonopaque cirrus class. An important part of this work consists in quantifying the different possible causes of discrepancies between CALIOP and surface lidar. The differences in average cloud base altitude between ground and CALIOP data sets can be attributed to (1) irregular sampling of seasonal variations in the ground-based data, (2) day-night differences in detection capabilities by CALIOP, and (3) the restriction to situations without low-level clouds in ground-based data. Cloud geometrical thicknesses are not affected by irregular sampling of seasonal variations in the ground-based data but by the day-night differences in detection capabilities of CALIOP and by the restriction to situations without low-level clouds in ground-based data.

AB Aqueous-phase X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra were collected on dissolved Al complexes with organic ligands, including desferrioxamine B, EDTA, acetohydroxamate, malate, oxalate, and salicylate. Spectral interpretations were made using the density functional theory-based modeling package StoBe. The goals of this work were to study the geometric and electronic structural characteristics of these complexes relative to Al(H(2)O)(6)(3+) and to examine the utility of the aqueous Al XANES technique as a tool for probing Al speciation and structure. In the case of EDTA, aqueous Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was also used to corroborate the structures of the Al(EDTA)(-) and AlOH(EDTA)(2-) complexes. Synthetic XANES spectra calculated with StoBe reproduced the observed spectral differences between Al(H(2)O)(6)(3+), Al(dfoB)(+), and Al(EDTA)(-). The narrower XANES feature observed for Al(dfoB)(+) relative to Al(H(2)O)(6)(3+) can be attributed to a weaker splitting of the Al 3p - O 2p interactions in the former, while Al(EDTA)(-) exhibits split Al 3p - ligand interactions that likely result from the mixed O/N coordination. In complexes with mixed aqua/organic-oxygen ligation (Al-acetohydroxamate, Al-malate, Al-oxalate, and Al-salicylate), spectra exhibit linear, systematic changes in peak width as a function of H(2)O to organic ligand ratio in the Al coordination sphere. These results highlight the sensitivity of the aqueous Al K-edge XANES spectrum to coordination environment and demonstrate its utility as an experimental probe for future studies of Al speciation in complex solutions.

AB Sterols are essential constituents of membranes, both in the plant world and in human organisms. Therefore, their activity on model lipid systems has systematically been studied. Despite intensive investigations, differences in the effect induced by beta-sitosterol (beta-sito) and stigmasterol (stigma) (two major phytosterols) are very controversial and still under debate. To compare the influence of these compounds on model membranes, we have performed grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) experiments on phytosterol/sphingomyelin (Sph) monolayers. The analysis of the X-ray scattering and the resulting in-plane parameters provided information on the lateral organization of pure lipid films and the mixed systems. The obtained results prove a nonideal mixing between the investigated lipids in the monolayers and the existence of strong interactions between phytosterols and Sph. Both the plant sterols incorporated into sphingolipid film condense the monolayer and order Sph chains. The results of GIXD experiments, compared with those obtained previously from Langmuir monolayer studies allowed us to observe the comparable influence of beta-sito and stigma on model membrane organization.

AB Nanocrystalline Zn1-xCoxO (x = 0-0.50) particles are produced by chemical vapor synthesis using laser flash evaporation as a novel precursor delivery method. The crystal and local structure of the samples is studied using X-ray diffraction and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A single wurtzite phase is observed in samples with cobalt contents as high as = 0.25 (actual content is 0.33 determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy). X-ray absorption spectra show that the Co2+ ions are incorporated into the ZnO wurtzite lattice substituting Zn2+ ions for cobalt contents between x = 0.001 and x = 0.20. Only small lattice deformations are observed in these solid solutions.

The Pd nanoparticles are characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. We confirm the small size dispersion from the desired particle size, and we show that the particle surface coverage can he highly controlled. Further, our measurements indicate that an amorphous shell surrounding a crystalline core of the Pd particles may form during the particle synthesis and that the shell contains carbon.

AB We report the first studies of the relative importance of substrate conductivity and monolayer structure on the electron-beam-induced damage of alkanethiolate self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) adsorbed on Au and GaAs(001) using time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry. The results clearly show that the extent of damage observed is strongly dependent on the electrical conductivity of the substrate; at a given electron dose, the amount of degradation is greatest for SAMs adsorbed on the least conductive substrate, semi-insulating GaAs(001). This is because there is a buildup of static charge at the substrate/SAM interface, whereas for an electrically conductive substrate, electrons can be conducted away from the surface, leading to less electron-beam-induced damage. The monolayer structure also greatly affects the amount of electron beam damage. Disordered SAMs, such as nonanethiol adsorbed on Au, undergo more degradation at a given electron dose than ordered SAMs, such as octadecanethiol (ODT) adsorbed on Au. Comparison of the data for undecanethiol (UDT) on conducting GaAs, a disordered SAM, and ODT on semi-insulating GaAs, an ordered SAM, suggests that the detailed 2D monolayer structure plays a more important role than the electrical conductivity of the substrate in determining the extent of electron-beam-induced damage. In addition, differences in the detailed structure of SAMs on Au and GaAs affect the reaction pathways observed. These findings explain previously reported results that much higher electron beam doses are required to damage SAMs on metals compared with SAMs adsorbed on semiconductors and insulators.

TI The magic nature of Sn-132 explored through the single-particle states

SO NATURE

DT Article
ID D,P REACTIONS; PB-208
AB Atomic nuclei have a shell structure(1) in which nuclei with 'magic numbers' of neutrons and protons are analogous to the noble gases in atomic physics. Only ten nuclei with the standard magic numbers of both neutrons and protons have so far been observed. The nuclear shell model is founded on the precept that neutrons and protons can move as independent particles in orbitals with discrete quantum numbers, subject to a mean field generated by all the other nucleons. Knowledge of the properties of single-particle states outside nuclear shell closures in exotic nuclei is important(2-5) for a fundamental understanding of nuclear structure and nucleo-synthesis (for example the r-process, which is responsible for the production of about half of the heavy elements). However, as a result of their short lifetimes, there is a paucity of knowledge about the nature of single-particle states outside exotic doubly magic nuclei. Here we measure the single-particle character of the levels in Sn-133 that lie outside the double shell closure present at the short-lived nucleus Sn-132. We use an inverse kinematics technique that involves the transfer of a single nucleon to the nucleus. The purity of the measured single-particle states clearly illustrates the magic nature of Sn-132.

AB Several ionic liquids were synthesized to investigate the influence of alkyl chain length and functional group attached to the cation on polarity and on three Kamlet-Taft parameters. Results are reported for polarity, dipolarity/polarizability, hydrogen-bond-donating acidity, and hydrogen-bond-accepting basicity in the range 25-65 degrees C. A long alkyl chain (1-octyl) on the pyrrolidinium cation leads to high polarity and high hydrogen-bond-donating acidity. At 25 degrees C, the hydrogen-bond-donating acidity for 1-methyl-1- octyl pyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethansulfonyl)imide is close to that for water. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The reversion reactions of glucose in mildly acidic aqueous solutions have been studied, and the kinetics of conversion to disaccharides has been modeled. The experiments demonstrate that, at high sugar loadings, up to 12 wt % of the glucose can be converted into reversion products. The reversion products observed are primarily disaccharides; no larger oligosaccharides were observed. Only disaccharides linked to the Cl carbon of one of the glucose residues were observed. The formation of 1,6-linked disaccharides was favored, and a-linked disaccharides were formed at higher concentrations than beta-linked disaccharides. This observation can be rationalized on the basis of steric effects. At temperatures >140 degrees C, the disaccharides reach equilibrium with glucose and the reversion reaction competes with dehydration reactions to form 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. As a result, disaccharide formation reaches a maximum at reaction times <10 min and decreases with time. At temperatures <130 degrees C, disaccharide formation reaches a maximum at reaction times >30 min. As expected, disaccharide formation exhibits a second-order dependence upon glucose concentration. Levoglucosan formation is also observed; because it shows a first-order dependence upon glucose concentration, its formation is more significant at low concentrations (10 mg mL(-1)), whereas disaccharide formation dominates at high concentrations (200 mg mL(-1)). Experiments conducted using glucose and its disaccharides were calibrated with readily available standards. The kinetic parameters for hydrolysis of some glucodisaccharides could be compared to published literature values. From these experiments, the kinetics and activation energies for the reversion reactions have been calculated. The rate parameters can be used to model the formation of the disaccharides as a function of reaction time and temperature. A new and detailed picture of the molecular mechanism of these industrially important reversion reactions has been developed.

AB In this review, we present a summary of experimental studies of magnetism in Fe-based superconductors. The doping dependent phase diagram shows strong similarities to the generic phase diagram of the cuprates. Parent compounds exhibit magnetic order together with a structural phase transition, both of which are progressively suppressed with doping, allowing superconductivity to emerge. The stripe-like spin arrangement of Fe moments in the magnetically ordered state shows identical in-plane structure for the RFeAsO (R = rare earth) and AFe(2)As(2) (A = Sr, Ca, Ba, Eu and K) parent compounds, notably different than the spin configuration of the cuprates. Interestingly, Fe(1+y)Te orders with a different spin order despite having very similar Fermi surface topology. Studies of the spin dynamics of the parent compounds show that the interactions are best characterized as anisotropic three-dimensional interactions. Despite the room temperature tetragonal structure, analysis of the low temperature spin waves under the assumption of a Heisenberg Hamiltonian indicates strong in-plane anisotropy with a significant next-nearest-neighbor interaction. For the superconducting state, a resonance, localized in both wavevector and energy, is observed in the spin excitation spectrum as for the cuprates. This resonance is observed at a wavevector compatible with a Fermi surface nesting instability independent of the magnetic ordering of the relevant parent compound. The resonance energy (E(r)) scales with the superconducting transition temperature (T(C)) as E(r) similar to 4.9k(B)T(C), which is consistent with the canonical value of similar to 5k(B)T(C) observed for the cuprates. Moreover, the relationship between the resonance energy and the superconducting gap, Delta, is similar to that observed for many unconventional superconductors (E(r)/2 Delta similar to 0.64).

TI "Weighing" Photon Energies with Mass Spectrometry: Effects of Water on
Ion Fluorescence
SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY
LA English
DT Article
ID DISSOCIATION; TRAP
AB We report a new, highly sensitive method for indirectly measuring fluorescence form ions with a discrete number of water molecules attached. Absorption of a 248 nm photon by hydrated protonated proflavine, PH*(H(2)O)(n) (n = 13-50), results in two resolved product ion distributions that correspond to full internal conversion of the photon energy (loss of similar to 11 water molecules) and to partial internal conversion of the photon energy and emission of a lower energy photon (loss of similar to 6 water molecules). In addition to fluorescence, a long-lived triplet state with a half-life of similar to 0.5 s (for n = 50) is formed. The energy of the emitted photon can be obtained from the number of water molecules lost form the precursor to form each distribution. The photon energies generally red shift form similar to 450 to 580 nm with increasing cluster size (the onset of the PH*(aq) fluorescence spectrum is 600 nm and the maximum is 518 nm) consistent with preferential stabilization of the first excited singlet state versus the ground state. The fluorescence quantum yield of PH*(H(2)O)(n) for n >= 30 is 0.36 +/- 0.02, the same as that in bulk solution, and increases dramatically with decreasing cluster sizes, due to less efficient conversion of electronic-to-vibrational energy. The high sensitivity of this method should make it possible to perform Forster resonance energy transfer experiments with gas-phase biomolecules in a microsolvated environment to investigate how a controlled number of water molecules facilitates dynamical motions in proteins or other molecules of interest.

AB We report that antibodies can be spontaneously loaded in functionalized mesoporous silica (FMS) with superhigh density (0.4-0.8 mg of antibody/mg of FMS) due to their comprehensive noncovalent interaction. The superhigh loading density and noncovalent interaction between FMS and antibodies allow long-lasting local release of the immunoregulatory molecules from FMS under physiological conditions. Preliminary data indicate that FMS-anti-CTLA4 antibody injected directly into a mouse melanoma induces much greater and extended inhibition of tumor growth than the antibody given systemically. Our findings open up a novel approach for local delivery of therapeutically active proteins to tumors and, potentially, other diseases.

Intense NRVS peaks due to vibrations of the N-Fe-N unit can be observed between 500 and 700 cm(-1) and are diagnostic indicators of the type of iron dinitrosyl species present. NRVS spectra for four iron dinitrosyl model compounds are presented and used as benchmarks for the identification of species formed in the reaction of Pyrococcus furiosus ferredoxin D14C with nitric oxide.

AB The water-soluble, self-assembled, tetrahedral assembly K(12)Ga(4)L(6) (L = 1,5-biscatecholamidenaphthalene) catalyzes the Nazarov cyclization of 1,3-pentadienols with extremely high levels of efficiency. The catalyzed reaction proceeds over a million times faster than the background reaction, an increase comparable to those observed in some enzymatic systems. This catalysis operates under aqueous conditions at mild temperatures and pH, and the reaction is halted by the addition of an appropriate inhibitor. This unprecedented rate enhancement is attributed to both the stabilization of protonated reaction intermediates and the effect of constrictive binding on the bound guest.

AB The fundamental factors controlling anion selectivity in the crystallization of hydrogen-bonding capsules [Mg(H2O)(6)][X subset of L-2] (X = SO42-, 1a; SeO42-, 1b; SO32-, 1c; CO32-, 1d; L = tris[2-(3-pyridylurea)ethyl]-amine) from water have been investigated by solution and solid-state thermodynamic measurements, anion competition experiments, and X-ray structural analysis. The crystal structures of 1a-d are isomorphous, thereby simplifying the interpretation of the observed selectivities based on differences in anion coordination geometries. The solubilities of 1a-d in water follow the order: 1a < 1b < 1c < 1d, which is consistent with the selectivity for the tetrahedral sulfate and selenate anions observed in competitive crystallization experiments. Crystallization of the capsules is highly exothermic, with the most favorable Delta H-cryst degrees of -99.1 and -108.5 kJ/mol corresponding to SO42- and SeO42-, respectively, in agreement with the X-ray structural data showing shape complementarity between these tetrahedral anions and the urea-lined cavities of the capsules. Sulfite, on the other hand, has a significantly less negative Delta H-cryst degrees of 64.6 kJ/mol, which may be attributed to its poor fit inside the capsules, involving repulsive interactions. The more favorable entropy of crystallization for this anion, however, partly offsets the enthalpic disadvantage, resulting in a solubility product very similar to that of the selenate complex. Because of their very similar shape and size, SO42- and SeO42- have a propensity to form solid solutions, which limits the selectivity between these two anions in competitive crystallizations. In the end, a comprehensive picture of contributing factors to anion selectivity in crystalline hydrogen-bonding capsules emerges.

AB Previous results have shown a unique "quartet" of peaks in the infrared spectra of the sporulated phase of Bacillus bacteria, the four peaks being observed reproducibly for many different species of Bacillus endospores. We consistently observe bands at 766, 725, 701, and 659 cm(-1) with the same relative amplitudes, as well as other spore peaks at 1441, 1277, and 1015 cm(-1). We have suggested that the peaks arise from calcium dipicolinate, not the conjugate acid. In this paper we conduct a theoretical and experimental study to show that the IR peaks not only arise from the calcium dipicolinate, a known spore component, but specifically the trihydrate salt, CaDP center dot 3H(2)O. This is shown by calculating the absolute IR frequencies and intensities of the lone dipicolinate dianion, the calcium salt, as well as the mono-, di- and tri-hydrate salts of calcium dipicolinate. The quartet peaks arise from the crystalline trihydrate salt as verified both experimentally and using quantum chemistry methods. When the calculated intensities are not normalized, only the trihydrate spectrum shows low frequency modes (below 1000 cm(-1), including the quartet) having intensities comparable to those of the pyridine ring. The vibrational modes in this region are associated with many internal coordinate motions including contributions from the Ca2+ counterion and the three waters including Ca-O-H bends, H2O-Ca-O torsions and O-C-O bends.

AB We report the construction of a database of infrared spectra aimed at detecting the gases emitted by biomass burning. The project uses many of the methods of the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) infrared database, but the selection of the species and special experimental considerations are optimized. Each spectrum is a weighted average derived from 10 or more individual measurements. Each composite has a spectral range from <= 600 to >= 6500 cm(-1) with an instrumental apodized resolution of 0.11 cm(-1). The resolution was chosen to bring out all spectral features, but recognizing that pressure broadening at 760 Torr results in essentially all ro-vibrational lines having these or greater linewidths.

AB A significantly improved material is developed for application to chemiresistors, which are resistance-based sensors for volatile organic compounds. This material is a polymer composite containing Au-coated magnetic particles organized into electrically conducting pathways by magnetic fields. This improved material overcomes the various problems inherent to conventional carbon-black chemiresistors, while achieving an unprecedented response magnitude. When exposed to chemical vapors, the polymer swells only slightly, yet this is amplified into large, reversible resistance changes, as much as (1 x 10(11))% at a swelling of only 1.5%. These conductor insulator transitions occur over such a narrow range of analyte vapor concentration that these devices can be described as chemical switches. The sensitivity and response range of these sensors can be tailored over a wide range by controlling the stress within the composite, including through the application of a magnetic field. Such tailorable sensors can be used to create sensor arrays that can accurately determine analyte concentration over a broad concentration range, or can be used to create logic circuits that signal a particular chemical environment.

AB Two previously uncharacterized proteins have been identified that efficiently catalyze the deamination of isoxanthopterin and pterin 6-carboxylate. The genes encoding these two enzymes, NYSGXRC-9339a (gi vertical bar 44585104) and NYSGXRC-9236b (gi vertical bar 44611670), were first identified from DNA isolated from the Sargasso Sea as part of the Global Ocean Sampling Project. The genes were synthesized, and the proteins were subsequently expressed and purified. The X-ray structure of Sgx9339a was determined at 2.7 angstrom resolution (Protein Data Bank entry 2PAJ). This protein folds as a distorted (beta/alpha)(8) barrel and contains a single zinc ion in the active site. These enzymes are members of the amidohydrolase superfamily and belong to cog0402 within the clusters of orthologous groups (COG). Enzymes in cog0402 have previously been shown to catalyze the deamination of guanine, cytosine, S-adenosylhomocysteine, and 8-oxoguanine. A small compound library of pteridines, purines, and pyrimidines was used to probe catalytic activity. The only substrates identified in this search were isoxanthopterin and pterin 6-carboxylate. The kinetic constants for the deamination of isoxanthopterin with Sgx9339a were determined to be 1.0 s(-1), 8.0 mu M, and 1.3 x 10 M(-1) s(-1) (k(cat), K(m), and k(cat)/K(m), respectively). The active site of Sgx9339a most closely resembles the active site for 8-oxoguanine deaminase (Protein Data Bank entry 2UZ9). A model for substrate recognition of isoxanthopterin by Sgx9339a was proposed on the basis of the binding of guanine and xanthine in the active site of guanine deaminase. Residues critical for substrate binding appear to be conserved glutamine and tyrosine residues that form hydrogen bonds with the carbonyl oxygen at C4, a conserved threonine residue that forms hydrogen bonds with N5, and another conserved threonine residue that forms hydrogen bonds with the carbonyl group at C7. These conserved active site residues were used to identify 24 other genes which are predicted to deaminate isoxanthopterin.

AB Understanding acid reaction-diffusion kinetics is crucial for controlling the lithographic performance of chemically amplified photoresists. In this work, we study how the molecular architectures of positive-tone chemically amplified molecular glass resists affect the acid reaction-diffusion kinetics during the post-expose bake (PEB) or annealing step. We compare the acid reaction-diffusion kinetics of a common photoacid generator in molecular glass resists with chemical similarity to poly(4-hydroxystyrene), and that are designed with branched and ring architectures. In situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy methods are used to measure reaction rate, acid trapping behavior, and acid diffusivity as a function of PE B temperature. We find that the acid reaction-diffusion kinetics in molecular glass resists is correlated to the film molar density that in turn depends on the architecture of the molecular glass molecules. These results allow modeling of the latent image formation in molecular glass resists that is critical for pattern feature resolution and line ethic roughness. A comparison between experimentally measured and theoretically predicted diffusion lengths in one molecular glass resist system was made. Because little is understood of the fundamentals of acid diffusion in this class of molecular glass resists, this paper provides critical insight into the molecular design of next-generation photoresists for high-resolution lithography.

AB Atomic layer deposition (ALD) palladium films were deposited at 200 degrees C on various ALD metal oxide surfaces using sequential exposures to Pd(II) hexafluoroacetylacetonate (Pd(hfac)(2)) and formalin. In situ quartz crystal microbalance measurements as well as ex situ measurements performed on planar substrates revealed that the Pd growth begins with a relatively slow nucleation process and accelerates once an adequate amount of Pd has deposited on the surface. Furthermore, the Pd nucleation is faster on ALD ZnO surfaces compared to ALD Al(2)O(3) surfaces. ALD was utilized to synthesize highly dispersed, uniform Pd nanoparticles (1 to 2 nm in diameter) on ALD ZnO and Al(2)O(3) coated mesoporous silica gel, and the catalytic performances of these samples were compared in the methanol decomposition reaction. The ALD Pd-Al(2)O(3) showed high activity and hydrogen selectivity at relatively low temperatures while the ALD Pd-ZnO showed very low activity as well as quick deactivation. In situ extended X-ray absorption line structure (EXAFS) measurement revealed that the Pd supported on ZnO "dissolves" into the substrate during the methanol decomposition reaction which accounts for the gradual disappearance of its catalytic activity. By applying one cycle of ALD Al(2)O(3) on top of the Pd-ZnO catalyst, the activity was enhanced and the catalyst deactivation was mitigated. This Al(2)O(3) overcoating method stabilizes the Pd-ZnO and effectively prevents the dissolution of Pd into the ZnO substrate.

AB Heterogeneous dumbbell-like nanoparticles represent an important type of composite nanomaterial that has attracted growing interest. Here we report a general approach to noble metal metal oxide dumbbell nanoparticles based on seed-mediated growth. Metal oxides are grown over the presynthesized noble metal seeds by thermal decomposition of metal carbonyl followed by oxidation in air. The as-synthesized dumbbell nanoparticles have intrinsic epitaxial linkage between the metal and the oxide, providing enhanced heterojunction interactions. Moreover, the properties of one component are readily modified by the other in these nanoparticles, as demonstrated by the enhanced catalytic activity toward CO oxidation of such dumbbell nanoparticles in comparison with their counterparts prepared by conversional methods. The heterojunction effects provided in such nanostructures thus offer another degree of freedom for tailoring, material properties. The developed synthetic strategy could also be generalized to other systems and thus represent a general approach to heterogeneous nanomaterials for various functional applications.

AB Although some perovskite oxides have been shown to be stable solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) anodes, the actual crystal structure of these materials under operating conditions is largely unknown. In this paper, the structural evolution or the SOFC anode La0.30Sr0.70Fe0.70Cr0.30O3-delta was studied at 800 and 900 degrees C (similar to SOFC operating temperatures) in progressively reducimg and oxidizing environments. The perovskite was shown to be stable down to a pO(2) of 10(-20) atm at 800 degrees C and a pO(2) of 10(-18) atm at 900 degrees C, at which point a spinel phase formed. Further reduction led to the formation of Fe metal. The phase separation of La0.30Sr0.70Fe0.70Cr0.30O3-delta was also shown to be completely reversible with an increase in the partial oxygen pressure and reoxidation of the sample.

AB Turbulent swept flow over a cylindrical wire placed on a wall of a channel is investigated using direct numerical simulations. This geometry is a model of the flow through the wire-wrapped fuel pins, the heat exchanger, typical of many nuclear reactor designs. Mean flow along and across the wire axis is imposed, leading to the formation of separated flow regions. The Reynolds number based on the bulk velocity along the wire axis direction and the channel half height is 5400 and four cases are simulated with different flowrates across the wire. This configuration is topologically similar to backward-facing steps or slots with swept flow, except that the dominant flow is along the obstacle axis in the present study and the crossflow is smaller than the axial flow, i.e. the sweep angle is large. Mean velocities, turbulence statistics, wall shear stress and instantaneous flow structures are investigated. Particular attention is devoted to the statistics of the shear stress on the walls of the channel and the wire in the recirculation zone. The flow around the mean reattachment region, at the termination of the recirculating bubble, does not exhibit the typical decay of the mean shear stress observed in classical backward-facing step flows owing to the presence of a strong axial flow. The evolution of the mean wall shear stress angle after reattachment indicates that the flow recovers towards equilibrium at a rather slow rate, which decreases with sweep angle. Finally, the database is analysed to estimate resolution requirements, in particular around the recirculation zones, for large-eddy simulations. This has implications in more complete geometrical models of a wire-wrapped assembly, involving hundreds of fuel pins, where only turbulence modelling can be afforded computationally.

AB Background: Chronic cocaine use is associated with disrupted dopaminergic neurotransmission but how this disruption affects overall brain function ( other than reward/motivation) is yet to be fully investigated. Here we test the hypothesis that cocaine addicted subjects will have disrupted functional connectivity between the midbrain ( where dopamine neurons are located) and cortical and subcortical brain regions during the performance of a sustained attention task.
Methodology/Principal Findings: We measured brain activation and functional connectivity with fMRI in 20 cocaine abusers and 20 matched controls. When compared to controls, cocaine abusers had lower positive functional connectivity of midbrain with thalamus, cerebellum, and rostral cingulate, and this was associated with decreased activation in thalamus and cerebellum and enhanced deactivation in rostral cingulate.
Conclusions/Significance: These findings suggest that decreased functional connectivity of the midbrain interferes with the activation and deactivation signals associated with sustained attention in cocaine addicts.

ID TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTOR; SPIN; EXCITATIONS; CECOIN5
AB The apparently inimical relationship between magnetism and superconductivity has come under increasing scrutiny in a wide range of material classes, where the free energy landscape conspires to bring them in close proximity to each other. Particularly enigmatic is the case when these phases microscopically interpenetrate, though the manner in which this can be accomplished remains to be fully comprehended. Here, we present combined measurements of elastic neutron scattering, magnetotransport, and heat capacity on a prototypical heavy fermion system, in which antiferromagnetism and superconductivity are observed. Monitoring the response of these states to the presence of the other, as well as to external thermal and magnetic perturbations, points to the possibility that they emerge from different parts of the Fermi surface. Therefore, a single 4f state could be both localized and itinerant, thus accounting for the coexistence of magnetism and superconductivity.

AB Heat transfer enhancement criteria for nanofluids over their base fluids are presented based on three separate considerations: Reynolds number, flow velocity, and pumping power. Analyses presented show that, among the three comparisons, the constant pumping power comparison is the most unambiguous; the constant flow velocity comparison can be quite reasonable under certain conditions but the constant Reynolds number comparison (the most commonly used in the engineering literature for nanofluids) distorts the physical situation, and therefore, should not be used.

We found that the simplest method, which is also the most widely used, and which involves measurement of just two heights in the X-ray diffractogram, produced significantly higher crystallinity values than did the other methods. Data in the literature for the cellulose preparation used (Avicel PH-101) support this observation. We believe that the alternative X-ray diffraction (XRD) and NMR methods presented here, which consider the contributions from amorphous and crystalline cellulose to the entire XRD and NMR spectra, provide a more accurate measure of the crystallinity of cellulose. Although celluloses having a high amorphous content are usually more easily digested by enzymes, it is unclear, based on studies published in the literature, whether CI actually provides a clear indication of the digestibility of a cellulose sample. Cellulose accessibility should be affected by crystallinity, but is also likely to be affected by several other parameters, such as lignin/hemicellulose contents and distribution, porosity, and particle size. Given the methodological dependency of cellulose CI values and the complex nature of cellulase interactions with amorphous and crystalline celluloses, we caution against trying to correlate relatively small changes in CI with changes in cellulose digestibility. In addition, the prediction of cellulase performance based on low levels of cellulose conversion may not include sufficient digestion of the crystalline component to be meaningful.

AB Background: Communities of microorganisms control the rates of key biogeochemical cycles, and are important for biotechnology, bioremediation, and industrial microbiological processes. For this reason, we constructed a model microbial community comprised of three species dependent on trophic interactions. The three species microbial community was comprised of Clostridium cellulolyticum, Desulfovibrio vulgaris Hildenborough, and Geobacter sulfurreducens and was grown under continuous culture conditions. Cellobiose served as the carbon and energy source for C. cellulolyticum, whereas D. vulgaris and G. sulfurreducens derived carbon and energy from the metabolic products of cellobiose fermentation and were provided with sulfate and fumarate respectively as electron acceptors.
Results: qPCR monitoring of the culture revealed C. cellulolyticum to be dominant as expected and confirmed the presence of D. vulgaris and G. sulfurreducens. Proposed metabolic modeling of carbon and electron flow of the three-species community indicated that the growth of C. cellulolyticum and D. vulgaris were electron donor limited whereas G. sulfurreducens was electron acceptor limited.
Conclusions: The results demonstrate that C. cellulolyticum, D. vulgaris, and G. sulfurreducens can be grown in coculture in a continuous culture system in which D. vulgaris and G. sulfurreducens are dependent upon the metabolic byproducts of C. cellulolyticum for nutrients. This represents a step towards developing a tractable model ecosystem comprised of members representing the functional groups of a trophic network.

AB Tomographic coherent imaging requires the reconstruction of a series of two-dimensional projections of the object. We show that using the solution for the image of one projection as the starting point for the reconstruction of the next projection offers a reliable and rapid approach to the image reconstruction. The method is demonstrated on simulated and experimental data. This technique also simplifies reconstructions using data with curved incident wavefronts. (C) 2010 Optical Society of America

AB We demonstrate the consistency at the next-to-leading-logarithmic (NLL) level of a factorization theorem based on Soft-Collinear Effective Theory (SCET) for jet shapes in e(+) e(-) collisions. We consider measuring jet observables in exclusive multijet final states defined with cone and k(T)-type jet algorithms. Consistency of the factorization theorem requires that the renormalization group evolution of hard, jet, and soft functions is such that the physical cross section is independent of the factorization scale it. The anomalous dimensions of the various factorized pieces, however, depend on the color representation of jets, choice of jet observable, the number of jets whose shapes are measured, and the jet algorithm, making it highly nontrivial to satisfy the consistency condition. We demonstrate the intricate cancellations between anomalous dimensions that occur at the NLL level, so that, up to power corrections that we identify, our factorization of the jet shape distributions is consistent for any number of quark and gluon jets, for any number of jets whose shapes are measured or unmeasured, for any angular size R of the jets, and for any of the algorithms we consider. Corrections to these results are suppressed by the SCET expansion parameter A (set by the ratio of the typical momentum in a jet transverse to the jet axis to the total jet energy) and in the jet separation measure 1/t(2) = tan(2)(R/2)/tan(2)(psi/2), where psi is the angular separation between jets. Our results can be used to calculate a wide variety of jet observables in multijet final states to NLL accuracy. (C) 2010 Elsevier BM. All rights reserved.

AB Results of ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) simulations (density functional theory+PBE96) of the dynamics of waters in the hydration shells surrounding the Zn2+ ion (T approximate to 300 K, rho approximate to 1 gm/cm(3)) are compared to simulations using a combined quantum and classical molecular dynamics [AIMD/molecular mechanical (MM)] approach. Both classes of simulations were performed with 64 solvating water molecules (similar to 15 ps) and used the same methods in the electronic structure calculation (plane-wave basis set, time steps, effective mass, etc.). In the AIMD/MM calculation, only six waters of hydration were included in the quantum mechanical (QM) region. The remaining 58 waters were treated with a published flexible water-water interaction potential. No reparametrization of the water-water potential was attempted. Additional AIMD/MM simulations were performed with 256 water molecules. The hydration structures predicted from the AIMD and AIMD/MM simulations are found to agree in detail with each other and with the structural results from x-ray data despite the very limited QM region in the AIMD/MM simulation. To further evaluate the agreement of these parameter-free simulations, predicted extended x-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra were compared directly to the recently obtained EXAFS data and they agree in remarkable detail with the experimental observations. The first hydration shell contains six water molecules in a highly symmetric octahedral structure is (maximally located at 2.13-2.15 angstrom versus 2.072 angstrom EXAFS experiment). The widths of the peak of the simulated EXAFS spectra agree well with the data (8.4 angstrom(2) versus 8.9 angstrom(2) in experiment). Analysis of the H-bond structure of the hydration region shows that the second hydration shell is trigonally bound to the first shell water with a high degree of agreement between the AIMD and AIMD/MM calculations. Beyond the second shell, the bonding pattern returns to the tetrahedral structure of bulk water. The AIMD/MM results emphasize the importance of a quantum description of the first hydration shell to correctly describe the hydration region. In these calculations the full d(10) electronic structure of the valence shell of the Zn2+ ion is retained. The simulations show substantial and complex charge relocation on both the Zn2+ ion and the first hydration shell. The dipole moment of the waters in the first hydration shell is 3.4 D (3.3 D AIMD/MM) versus 2.73 D bulk. Little polarization is found for the waters in the second hydration shell (2.8 D). No exchanges were seen between the first and the second hydrations shells; however, many water transfers between the second hydration shell and the bulk were observed. For 64 waters, the AIMD and AIMD/MM simulations give nearly identical results for exchange dynamics. However, in the larger particle simulations (256 waters) there is a significant reduction in the second shell to bulk exchanges. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3421542]

TI Accurate acceleration of kinetic Monte Carlo simulations through the

SO JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
ID STOCHASTIC CHEMICAL-KINETICS; MARKOV-CHAINS; SYSTEMS; ALGORITHMS
AB We present a novel computational algorithm called the accelerated superbasin kinetic Monte Carlo (AS-KMC) method that enables a more efficient study of rare-event dynamics than the standard KMC method while maintaining control over the error. In AS-KMC, the rate constants for processes that are observed many times are lowered during the course of a simulation. As a result, rare processes are observed more frequently than in KMC and the time progresses faster. We first derive error estimates for AS-KMC when the rate constants are modified. These error estimates are next employed to develop a procedure for lowering process rates with control over the maximum error. Finally, numerical calculations are performed to demonstrate that the AS-KMC method captures the correct dynamics, while providing significant CPU savings over KMC in most cases. We show that the AS-KMC method can be employed with any KMC model, even when no time scale separation is present (although in such cases no computational speed-up is observed), without requiring the knowledge of various time scales present in the system.

AB Using full-dimensional EOM-IP-CCSD/aug-cc-pVTZ potential energy surfaces, the photoelectron spectrum, vibrational structure, and ionization dynamics of the water dimer radical cation, (H(2)O)(2)(+), were computed. We also report an experimental photoelectron spectrum which is derived from photoionization efficiency measurements and compares favorably with the theoretical spectrum. The vibrational structure is also compared to the recent experimental work of Gardenier [J. Phys. Chem. A 113, 4772 (2009)] and the recent theoretical calculations by Cheng [J. Phys. Chem. A 113, 13779 (2009)]. A reduced-dimensionality nuclear Hamiltonian was used to compute the ionization dynamics for both the ground state and first excited state of the cation. The dynamics show markedly different behavior and spectroscopic signatures depending on which state of the cation is accessed by the ionization. Ionization to the ground state cation surface induces a hydrogen transfer which is complete within 50 fs, whereas ionization to the first excited state results in a much slower process.

AB Advances in synthetic methods have spawned an array of nanoparticles and bio-inspired molecules of diverse shapes and interaction geometries. Recent experiments indicate that such anisotropic particles exhibit a variety of nonclassical self-assembly pathways, forming ordered assemblies via intermediates that do not share the architecture of the bulk material. Here we apply mean field theory to a prototypical model of interacting anisotropic particles, and find a clear thermodynamic impetus for nonclassical ordering in certain regimes of parameter space. In other parameter regimes, by contrast, assembly pathways are selected by dynamics. This approach suggests a means of predicting when anisotropic particles might assemble in a manner more complicated than that assumed by classical nucleation theory.

AB A cell kinetics model is developed to describe the evolution of prostate cancer (PC) from diagnosis to PC specific death. Such a model can be used to estimate an individual's eventual outcome and thus to inform decisions about therapy. To describe the observed clinical progression, the model must postulate three PC cell populations that are (1) local to the prostate and sensitive to hormones, (2) regional and hormone sensitive, and (3) systemic and hormone resistant. A set of coupled first-order differential equations describes the exponential growth of a PC tumor as well as its transformation from a local to systemic disease. The time dependence of the solutions is scaled to the doubling time of the prostate specific antigen (PSADT) because it characterizes the tumor growth for the individual. The conversion from local to systemic cell populations is described with a parameter e that can be associated with the Gleason score. The model also has three critical cell populations that describe (1) the initiation of the non-local populations, (2) the saturation level of the local tumor, and (3) the cell count likely to cause PC specific death. These parameters are calibrated by reproducing published PC clinical data and survival tables. The model is then applied to individuals with complete PC diagnostic data in order to calculate the progression to PC specific death. One man has early stage PC as described in the 'vignette' patient of Walsh et al. (2007. N. Engl. J. Med. 357, 2696-2705). The second man has a more serious condition and has undergone both local and systemic treatments. Unfortunately, I am that patient. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

delocalization and entanglement
SO NEW JOURNAL OF PHYSICS

AB We explore quantum entanglement among the chlorophyll molecules in light-harvesting complex II, which is the most abundant photosynthetic antenna complex in plants containing over 50% of the world's chlorophyll molecules. Our results demonstrate that there exists robust quantum entanglement under physiological conditions for the case of a single elementary excitation. However, this nonvanishing entanglement is not unexpected because entanglement in the single-excitation manifold is conceptually the same as quantum delocalized states, which are the spectroscopically detectable energy eigenstates of the system. We discuss the impact of the surrounding environments and correlated fluctuations in electronic energies of different pigments upon quantum delocalization and quantum entanglement. It is demonstrated that investigations with tools quantifying the entanglement can provide us with more detailed information on the nature of quantum delocalization, in particular the so-called dynamic localization, which is difficult for a traditional treatment to capture.

AB This Letter describes the current most precise measurement of the W boson pair production cross section and most sensitive test of anomalous WW gamma and WWZ couplings in p (p) over bar collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. The WW candidates are reconstructed from decays containing two charged leptons and two neutrinos. Using data collected by the CDF II detector from 3: 6 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity, a total of 654 candidate events are observed with an expected background of 320 +/- 47 events. The measured cross section is sigma(p (p) over bar -> W+W- +X) = 12.1 +/- 0.9(stat)(-1.4)(+1.6)(syst) pb, which is in good agreement with the standard model prediction. The same data sample is used to place constraints on anomalous WW gamma and WWZ couplings.

ID LENNARD-JONES MIXTURE; MODE-COUPLING THEORY; MOLECULAR-DYNAMICS;
VISCOSITY; LIQUID
AB Through computer simulation of steady-state flow in a Zr50Cu40Al10 metallic glass using a set of realistic potentials we find a simple scaling relationship between temperature and stress as they affect viscosity. The scaling relationship provides new insight into the microscopic mechanism of shear flow in the glassy state, in terms of the elastic energy of the applied stress modifying the local energy landscape. The results suggest that the plastic flow and mechanical failure in metallic glasses are consequences of stress-induced glass transition.

ID POLARIZATION ENHANCEMENT
AB The origin of the functional properties of complex oxide superlattices can be resolved using time-resolved synchrotron x-ray diffraction into contributions from the component layers making up the repeating unit. The CaTiO(3) layers of a CaTiO(3)/BaTiO(3) superlattice have a piezoelectric response to an applied electric field, consistent with a large continuous polarization throughout the superlattice. The overall piezoelectric coefficient at large strains, 54 pm/V, agrees with first-principles predictions in which a tetragonal symmetry is imposed on the superlattice by the SrTiO(3) substrate.

TI First-Order Transitions and the Performance of Quantum Algorithms in
Random Optimization Problems
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

DT Article
ID TRANSVERSE-FIELD; SPIN-GLASS; MODEL
AB We present a study of the phase diagram of a random optimization problem in the presence of quantum fluctuations. Our main result is the characterization of the nature of the phase transition, which we find to be a first-order quantum phase transition. We provide evidence that the gap vanishes exponentially with the system size at the transition. This indicates that the quantum adiabatic algorithm requires a time growing exponentially with system size to find the ground state of this problem.

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

DT Article
ID CYCLOTRON-RESONANCE; GAS
AB We report on magneto-oscillations in differential resistivity of a two-dimensional electron system subject to intense microwave radiation. The period of these oscillations is determined not only by microwave frequency but also by its intensity. A theoretical model based on quantum kinetics at high microwave power captures all important characteristics of this phenomenon which is strongly nonlinear in microwave intensity. Our results demonstrate a crucial role of the multiphoton processes near the cyclotron resonance and its harmonics in the presence of strong dc electric field and offer a unique way to reliably determine the intensity of microwaves acting on electrons.

ID SANS; HE-3
AB A new development in small-angle neutron scattering with polarization analysis allows us to directly extract the average spatial distributions of magnetic moments and their correlations with three-dimensional directional sensitivity in any magnetic field. Applied to a collection of spherical magnetite nanoparticles 9.0 nm in diameter, this enhanced method reveals uniformly canted, magnetically active shells in a nominally saturating field of 1.2 T. The shell thickness depends on temperature, and it disappears altogether when the external field is removed, confirming that these canted nanoparticle shells are magnetic, rather than structural, in origin.

AB We show rigorously that the spin-glass susceptibility in the random field Ising model is always bounded by the ferromagnetic susceptibility, and therefore that no spin-glass phase can be present at equilibrium out of the ferromagnetic critical line. When the magnetization is, however, fixed to values smaller than the equilibrium value, a spin-glass phase can exist, as we show explicitly on the Bethe lattice.

AB The symmetry energy of nuclear matter is a fundamental ingredient in the investigation of exotic nuclei, heavy-ion collisions, and astrophysical phenomena. New data from heavy-ion collisions can be used to extract the free symmetry energy and the internal symmetry energy at subsaturation densities and temperatures below 10 MeV. Conventional theoretical calculations of the symmetry energy based on mean-field approaches fail to give the correct low-temperature, low-density limit that is governed by correlations, in particular, by the appearance of bound states. A recently developed quantum-statistical approach that takes the formation of clusters into account predicts symmetry energies that are in very good agreement with the experimental data. A consistent description of the symmetry energy is given that joins the correct low-density limit with quasiparticle approaches valid near the saturation density.

Nickelate, Isoelectronic with Superconducting Cuprates

DT Article
ID TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTORS; LA; ND
AB The Ni1+/Ni2+ states of nickelates have the identical (3d(9)/3d(8)) electronic configuration as Cu2+/Cu3+ in the high temperature superconducting cuprates, and are expected to show interesting properties. An intriguing question is whether mimicking the electronic and structural features of cuprates would also result in superconductivity in nickelates. Here we report experimental evidence for a bulklike magnetic transition in La4Ni3O8 at 105 K. Density functional theory calculations relate the transition to a spin density wave nesting instability of the Fermi surface.

Solid-State Optical Frequency Reference Based on the Th-229 Nucleus

AB We describe a novel approach to directly measure the energy of the narrow, low-lying isomeric state in Th-229. Since nuclear transitions are far less sensitive to environmental conditions than atomic transitions, we argue that the Th-229 optical nuclear transition may be driven inside a host crystal with a high transition Q. This technique might also allow for the construction of a solid-state optical frequency reference that surpasses the short-term stability of current optical clocks, as well as improved limits on the variability of fundamental constants. Based on analysis of the crystal lattice environment, we argue that a precision (short-term stability) of 3 x 10(-17) < Delta f/f < 1 x 10(-15) after 1 s of photon collection may be achieved with a systematic-limited accuracy (long-term stability) of Delta f/f similar to 2 x 10(-16). Improvement by 10(2) - 10(3) of the constraints on the variability of several important fundamental constants also appears possible.

TI Giant Enhancement of Hydrogen Transport in Rutile TiO2 at Low
Temperatures
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

DT Article
ID DIFFUSION; CRYSTALS; DEUTERIUM; SPECTRA; OXIDES
AB Measurements of the O-H and O-D vibrational lifetimes show that the room-temperature hydrogen diffusion rate in rutile TiO2 can be enhanced by 9 orders of magnitude when stimulated by resonant infrared light. We find that the local oscillatory motion of the proton quickly couples to a wag-mode-assisted classical transfer process along the c channel with a jump rate of greater than 1 THz and a barrier height of 0.2 eV. This increase in proton transport rate at moderate temperatures provides new insight into hydrogen transport in solids, which could play a role in applications ranging from fuel cells to hydrogen production.

AB The observation of primordial gravitational waves could provide a new and unique window on the earliest moments in the history of the universe and on possible new physics at energies many orders of magnitude beyond those accessible at particle accelerators. Such waves might be detectable soon, in current or planned satellite experiments that will probe for characteristic imprints in the polarization of the cosmic microwave background, or later with direct space-based interferometers. A positive detection could provide definitive evidence for inflation in the early universe and would constrain new physics from the grand unification scale to the Planck scale.

AB The human microbiome refers to the community of microorganisms, including prokaryotes, viruses, and microbial eukaryotes, that populate the human body. The National Institutes of Health launched an initiative that focuses on describing the diversity of microbial species that are associated with health and disease. The first phase of this initiative includes the sequencing of hundreds of microbial reference genomes, coupled to metagenomic sequencing from multiple body sites. Here we present results from an initial reference genome sequencing of 178 microbial genomes. From 547,968 predicted polypeptides that correspond to the gene complement of these strains, previously unidentified ("novel") polypeptides that had both unmasked sequence length greater than 100 amino acids and no BLASTP match to any nonreference entry in the nonredundant subset were defined. This analysis resulted in a set of 30,867 polypeptides, of which 29,987 (similar to 97%) were unique. In addition, this set of microbial genomes allows for similar to 40% of random sequences from the microbiome of the gastrointestinal tract to be associated with organisms based on the match criteria used. Insights into pan-genome analysis suggest that we are still far from saturating microbial species genetic data sets. In addition, the associated metrics and standards used by our group for quality assurance are presented.

TI Observation of Plasmarons in Quasi-Freestanding Doped Graphene
SO SCIENCE

DT Article
ID LAYER GRAPHENE; ELECTRON-GAS; PHOTOEMISSION
AB A hallmark of graphene is its unusual conical band structure that leads to a zero-energy band gap at a single Dirac crossing point. By measuring the spectral function of charge carriers in quasi-freestanding graphene with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, we showed that at finite doping, this well-known linear Dirac spectrum does not provide a full description of the charge-carrying excitations. We observed composite "plasmaron" particles, which are bound states of charge carriers with plasmons, the density oscillations of the graphene electron gas. The Dirac crossing point is resolved into three crossings: the first between pure charge bands, the second between pure plasmaron bands, and the third a ring-shaped crossing between charge and plasmaron bands.

TI Preventing Nanoscale Wear of Atomic Force Microscopy Tips Through the
Use of Monolithic Ultrananocrystalline Diamond Probes

AB Nanoscale wear is a key limitation of conventional atomic force microscopy (AFM) probes that results in decreased resolution, accuracy, and reproducibility in probe-based imaging, writing, measurement, and nanomanufacturing applications. Diamond is potentially an ideal probe material due to its unrivaled hardness and stiffness, its low friction and wear, and its chemical inertness. However, the manufacture of monolithic diamond probes with. consistently shaped small-radius tips has not been previously achieved. The first wafer-level fabrication of monolithic ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) probes with <5-nm grain sizes and smooth tips with radii of 30 40 nm is reported, which are obtained through a combination of micro fabrication and hot-filament chemical vapor deposition. Their nanoscale wear resistance under contact-mode scanning conditions is compared with that of conventional silicon nitride (SiNx) probes of similar geometry at two different relative humidity levels (approximate to 15 and approximate to 70%). While SiNx probes exhibit significant wear that further increases with humidity, UNCD probes show little measurable wear. The only significant degradation of the UNCD probes observed in one case is associated with removal of the initial seed layer of the UNCD film. The results show the potential of a new material for AFM probes and demonstrate a systematic approach to studying wear at the nanoscale.

AB Investigations of the impact of Cr2O3 overlayers on the oxygen self diffusion in two SOFC materials were conducted to gain insight into the Cr poisoning mechanism at the cathode side of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) with stainless steel interconnects. High density Y0.15Zr0.85O2 (YSZ) and La0.6Sr0.4Co0.2Fe0.8O3 (LSCF) sintered pellets were covered with 3 to 30 nm Cr overlayers that were subsequently oxidized, forming Cr2O3. Standard O-18 tracer diffusion experiments at 800 degrees C were performed and ToF-SIMS profiling revealed that the oxygen ion diffusion coefficients were unaffected by the thin Cr2O3 overlayers, which is predictable since they are a bulk property, but the extracted effective surface exchange coefficients varied with Cr2O3 overlayer thickness. Solid-state reaction measurements and electronic structure considerations concerning the surface exchange, led to the conclusion that the observed oxygen uptake hindrance for Cr2O3 capped LSCF and the slight increase of the surface exchange coefficient for Cr2O3 capped YSZ can be attributed to the electronic properties of Cr2O3. A critical thickness for Cr2O3 was determined to be 12 nm where the transition from decreasing cathode-performance to a Cr2O3-property-governed regime occurs. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

AB Near-future cosmological observations targeted at investigations of dark energy pose stringent requirements on the accuracy of theoretical predictions for the nonlinear clustering of matter. Currently, N-body simulations comprise the only viable approach to this problem. In this paper, we study various sources of computational error and methods to control them. By applying our methodology to a large suite of cosmological simulations we show that results for the (gravity-only) nonlinear matter power spectrum can be obtained at 1% accuracy out to k similar to 1 h Mpc(-1). The key components of these high accuracy simulations are precise initial conditions, very large simulation volumes, sufficient mass resolution, and accurate time stepping. This paper is the first in a series of three; the final aim is a high-accuracy prediction scheme for the nonlinear matter power spectrum that improves current fitting formulae by an order of magnitude.

AB The high-frequency-peaked BL Lacertae object RGB J0710+591 was observed in the very high-energy (VHE; E > 100 GeV) wave band by the VERITAS array of atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes. The observations, taken between 2008 December and 2009 March and totaling 22.1 hr, yield the discovery of VHE gamma rays from the source. RGB J0710+591 is detected at a statistical significance of 5.5 standard deviations (5.5 sigma) above the background, corresponding to an integral flux of (3.9 +/- 0.8) x 10(-12) cm(-2) s(-1) (3% of the Crab Nebula's flux) above 300 GeV. The observed spectrum can be fit by a power law from 0.31 to 4.6 TeV with a photon spectral index of 2.69 +/- 0.26(stat) +/- 0.20(sys). These data are complemented by contemporaneous multiwavelength data from the Fermi Large Area Telescope, the Swift X-ray Telescope, the Swift Ultra-Violet and Optical Telescope, and the Michigan-Dartmouth-MIT observatory. Modeling the broadband spectral energy distribution (SED) with an equilibrium synchrotron self-Compton model yields a good statistical fit to the data. The addition of an external-Compton component to the model does not improve the fit nor brings the system closer to equipartition. The combined Fermi and VERITAS data constrain the properties of the high-energy emission component of the source over 4 orders of magnitude and give measurements of the rising and falling sections of the SED.

AB A Monte Carlo method for simulating Compton scattering in high energy density applications has been presented that models the photon-electron collision kinematics exactly [E. Canfield, W M Howard, E P bang, Inverse Comptonization by one-dimensional relativistic electrons. Astrophys J 323 (1987) 565]. However, implementing this technique typically requires an explicit evaluation of the material temperature, which can lead to unstable and oscillatory solutions In this paper, we perform a stability analysis of this Monte Carlo method and develop two time-step limits that avoid undesirable behavior The first time-step limit prevents instabilities, while the second, more restrictive time-step lima avoids both instabilities and nonphysical oscillations. With a set of numerical examples, we demonstrate the efficacy of these time-step limits. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc All rights reserved.

AB The results of a computational study with multiconfigurational quantum chemical methods on actinide monoxides (AnO) and dioxides (AnO(2)) for An = Th, Pa, U, Np, Pu, Am, and Cm, are presented. First and second ionization energies were determined and compared with experimental values, when available. The trend along the series is analyzed in terms of the electronic configurations of the various species. The agreement with experiment is excellent in most cases. Of particular interest is the first ionization of PuO(2). We applied cutting-edge theoretical methods to refine the ionization energy, but our computed data fall in the range of similar to 6 eV and not in the similar to 7 eV region as the experiment dictates. Such a system requires further computational and experimental attention.

AB Classical molecular dynamics and Monte Carlo simulations are used to calculate the self-diffusivity and solubility of pure and mixed CO2, H-2, and Ar gases absorbed in the ionic liquid 1-n-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)amide ([hmim][Tf2N]). Overall, the computed absorption isotherms, Henry's law constants, and partial molar enthalpies for pure H-2 agree well with the experimental data obtained by Maurer et al. [J. Chem. Eng. Data 2006, 51, 1364] and the experimental values determined in this work. However, the agreement is poor between the simulations and the experimental data by Noble et al. Find. Eng. Chem. Res. 2008, 47, 3453] and Costa Gomes [J. Chem. Eng. Data 2007, 52, 472] at high temperatures. The computed H-2 permeability values are in good agreement with the experimental data at 313 K obtained by Luebke et al. [J. Membr. Sci. 2007, 298, 41; ibid, 2008, 322, 28], but about three times larger than the experimental value at 573 K from the same group. Our computed H-2 solubilities using different H-2 potential models have similar values and solute polarizations were found to have a negligible effect on the predicted gas solubilities for both the H-2 and Ar. The interaction between H-2 and the ionic liquid is weak, about three times smaller than between the ionic liquid and Ar and six times smaller than that of CO2 with the ionic liquid, results that are consistent with a decreasing solubility from CO2 to Ar and to H-2. The molar volume of the ionic liquid was found to be the determining factor for the H-2 solubility. For mixed H-2 and Ar gases, the solubilities for both solutes decrease compared to the respective pure gas solubilities. For mixed gases of CO2 and H-2, the solubility selectivity of CO2 over H-2 decreases from about 30 at 313 K to about 3 at 573 K. For the permeability, the simulated values for CO2 in [hmim][Tf2N] are about 20-60% different than the experimental data by Luebke et al. [J. Membr. Sci. 2008, 322, 28].

AB The unique electronic structure and optical properties of double-walled carbon nanotubes (DWNTs) have made them a key focus material of research in recent years. However, the incorporation of DWNTs with quantum clots (QDs) into nanocomposites via a covalent chemical approach as well as the optical properties of the composites have rarely been explored. In particular, we have been interested in this model system to investigate whether nanomaterial heterostructures can provide efficient pathways for charge separation relative to loss mechanisms such as recombination. In this specific work, the synthesis of DWNT-CdSe QD heterostructures obtained by using a conventional covalent protocol has been demonstrated. CdSe QDs with terminal amino groups have been conjugated onto the surfaces of oxidized DWNTs by the formation of amide bonds. The observed trap emission of CdSe is thought to arise from the presence of 2-aminoethanethiol capping ligands and is effectively quenched upon conjugation with the DWNT surface because of the charge transfer from CdSe to DWNTs.

AB An unusual case of a diquaternary ammonium dication, with large bulky end groups built from the tropane moiety and connected by a C4 methylene chain, is found to reside in zeolite SSZ-35 (STF). The structure of the guest/host product is such that the tropane bicylic entities reside in the shallow cavities of the cages of the STF structure and the C4 methylene chain runs through the 10-ring (similar to 5.5 angstrom) window that connects the cages. This is a most unusual (and energy-intensive) templating of a zeolite structure with the guest molecule spanning two unit cells. The unusual result was found by single crystal studies with the addition of the use of the SQUEEZE program to show a consistent fit for the guest molecule following from measured electron densities in the crystal structure work. These analyses were followed with MAS NMR studies to confirm the integrity of the diquaternary guest molecule in the host sieve. A few comparative diquaternary guest molecules in MFI zeolite are also studied.

AB Molecular dynamics simulations of the electrical double layer at AgCl-aqueous electrolyte (KCl) interfaces are presented, accompanied by a new force field and properties of bulk AgCl computed using planewave density functional theory. Long dynamics simulations were performed to estimate ion adsorption free energies at the AuCl surface. The simulations demonstrate the formation of a bilayer hydration sheet composed of two sublayers of water molecules interconnected by hydrogen bonds. Potassium ions prefer to form an inner-sphere complex, whereas chloride ions prefer outer-sphere complexes. The adsorbed ion water layers form a relatively rigid structure within the range of ionic strength considered, which confirms the applicability of the Helmholtz model in a high concentration regime. Profiles of the charge density, electric field, and electrostatic potential across the simulation cell revealed that oscillations of water molecules govern these quantities. The electrostatic potential generated only by the electrolyte ions was used to study the quasi-Nernstian response of the silver chloride surface to the variation in the ionic strength.

AB The influence of intermolecular interactions involving molecular chiral centers on two-dimensional organization in the limit of a weak adsorbate-surface interaction has been studied with low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and density functional theory (DFT). A model system composed of a chiral organic molecule, tartaric acid, and an inert metallic surface, Ag(111), was employed. Dual component films formed from the serial deposition of (S,S)- and (R,R)-tartaric acid enantiomers onto this surface exhibit homochiral domain formation as revealed by molecularly resolved STM images. In contrast, a unique tartaric acid enantiomeric heteropair is experimentally and computationally verified as the basis unit of films formed via the deposition of both enantiomers simultaneously from a racemic (1: 1) mixture. The molecular adsorption geometry relative to the Ag(111) lattice in both enantiomerically pure and racemic domains is determined primarily by the interaction of chiral centers between nearest neighbors.

AB Gram-scale synthesis of Pt-ML electrocatalysts with a well-defined core shell structure has been carried out using method involving galvanic displacement of an underpotential deposition Cu layer. The Pt shell thickness can be controlled by stepwise deposition. The Pt@Pd2Co/C nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution energy-loss spectrometry, and in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy. A complete Pt shell of 0.6 nm on a Pd2Co core has been confirmed. The Pt@Pd2Co/C core-shell electrocatalysts showed a very high activity for the oxygen reduction reaction; the Pt mass and specific activity were 0.72 A mg(pt)(-1) and 0.5 mA cm(-2), respectively (3.5 and 2.5 times higher than the corresponding values for commercial Pt catalysts), at 0.9 V in 0.1 M HClO4 at room temperature. In an accelerated potential cycling test, a loss in active surface area and a decrease in catalytic activity for gram-scale-synthesized Pt-ML catalysts were also determined.

AB Density functional theory calculations were employed to investigate the (001), (210), (111), and (110) surfaces of FeS2. The surface free energies were calculated in equilibrium with a sulfur environment using first-principles based thermodynamics approach. Surfaces that feature metal atoms in their outermost layer are predicted to be higher in energy. Within the studied subset of (1 x 1) terminations, the stoichiometric (001) surface terminated by a layer of sulfur atoms is the most stable for sulfur-lean condition. For increasingly sulfur-rich environment, two structures were found to have notably lower surface energies compared to others. They have (210) and (111) orientation, both terminated by layers of sulfur. Interestingly, these surfaces are nonstoichiometric exhibiting an excess of sulfur atoms.

AB We use full-dimensional classical trajectories to study how reaction cross sections for the D + H-2 -> DH + H reaction are altered when the system is confined to move within various sized carbon nanotubes (CNTs). We focus on trajectories with initial conditions such that collisions with the nanotube walls are possible. Unlike our previous studies where the initial conditions minimized the potential for such collisions [Lu, T.; Goldfield, E. M. Gray, S. K. J. Phys. Chem. C 2008, 112, 15260], we find that reaction cross sections are enhanced in all the differently sized CNTs compared to cross sections in the isolated systems, although the enhancements are larger for the smaller CNTs. We interpret our results based on a simple specular reflection model for collision cross sections within a cylinder.

AB Copper thiocyanate (CuSCN) is a candidate as a transparent solid p-type conductor for optoelectronic and photovoltaic applications, such as solar cells. We calculate the band structure, bonding characteristics, and basic native defect configurations of hexagonal beta-CuSCN. beta-CuSCN is predicted to be an indirect-gap semiconductor with an unusual orbital character: although the highest valence bands have the expected character of Cu 3d levels hybridized with S 3p states, the conduction band minimum (at the K point of the hexagonal Brillouin zone) has mostly cyanide antibonding character. This quasi-molecular character results in some unusual properties, including that the electron effective masses are comparable to or even larger than the hole effective masses. Calculated results match well with the valence band spectrum of thin film CuSCN, although optical absorption measurements do not conclusively confirm the predicted indirect nature of the lowest transitions. The dominant p-type character of this material is explained in terms of copper vacancies; CN unit vacancies, which are also expected to be acceptors. are proposed as a mechanism to increase p-type conduction.

AB The lifetime and back electron transfer kinetics of an all-inorganic, oxo-bridged heterobinuclear (TiOMnII)-O-IV group covalently anchored on a silica nanopore surface was investigated by transient optical absorption spectroscopy. Mesoporous silica particles of type SBA-15 loaded with TiOMn sites (1 wt %) were suspended in an index matching liquid for performing spectroscopy in transmission mode. Upon excitation of the (TiOMnII)-O-IV -> (TiOMnIII)-O-III metal-to-metal charge-transfer transition (MMCT) by a visible laser pulse of 8 ns duration, a transient bleach was observed whose intensity versus pump wavelength dependence agreed with the MMCT absorption profile. The decay kinetics is well described by a superposition of first-order rates with a mean time constant of 1.8 +/- 0.3 mu s (room temperature). The dispersion of gamma = 2 +/- 0.2 (Albery model) is attributed to variations in the local silica coordination environment reflecting the disordered, amorphous nature of the silica nanopore surface. The result constitutes the first observation of the electron transfer kinetics of an all-inorganic heterobinuclear group. It is proposed that the microsecond lifetime, unusually long for such as small charge transfer chromophore, originates from strong polarization of the local and remote silica environment upon light-triggered electron transfer from Mn to Ti. This results in a substantial reorganization barrier for back electron transfer. The long lifetime makes oxo-bridged heterobinuclear units anchored on silica surfaces efficient visible light photocatalysts and suitable as charge-transfer chromophores for driving multielectron catalysts in artificial photosynthetic systems.

AB We report here the exploitation of ultrathin layers of Al2O3 deposited via atomic layer deposition (ALD) on SnO2 photoanodes used in dye-sensitized solar cells featuring the I-3(-)/I- couple as the redox electrolyte. We find that a single ALD cycle of Al2O3 increases the lifetimes of injected electrons by more than 2 orders of magnitude. The modified SnO2 photoanode yields nearly a 2-fold improvement fill factor and a greater than 2-fold increase in open circuit photo voltage, with a slight increase in short-circuit photocurrent. The overall energy conversion efficiency increases by roughly 5-fold. The effects appear to arise primarly from passivation of reactive, low-energy tin oxide surface states, with band edge shifts and tunneling based blocking behavior playing only secondary roles.

ID CORE-COLLAPSE SUPERNOVAE; IA SUPERNOVA; GALAXIES; MODELS; STAR;
TELESCOPE
AB Supernovae are thought to arise from two different physical processes. The cores of massive, short-lived stars undergo gravitational core collapse and typically eject a few solar masses during their explosion. These are thought to appear as type Ib/c and type II supernovae, and are associated with young stellar populations. In contrast, the thermonuclear detonation of a carbon-oxygen white dwarf, whose mass approaches the Chandrasekhar limit, is thought to produce type Ia supernovae(1,2). Such supernovae are observed in both young and old stellar environments. Here we report a faint type Ib supernova, SN 2005E, in the halo of the nearby isolated galaxy, NGC 1032. The 'old' environment near the supernova location, and the very low derived ejected mass (similar to 0.3 solar masses), argue strongly against a core-collapse origin. Spectroscopic observations and analysis reveal high ejecta velocities, dominated by helium-burning products, probably excluding this as a subluminous(3,4) or a regular(1) type Ia supernova. We conclude that it arises from a low-mass, old progenitor, likely to have been a helium-accreting white dwarf in a binary. The ejecta contain more calcium than observed in other types of supernovae and probably large amounts of radioactive (44)Ti.

AB The amphipathicity of the natively unstructured amyloid-beta (A beta 40) peptide may play an important role in its aggregation into beta-sheet rich fibrils, which is linked to the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Using the air/subphase interface as a model interface, we characterized A beta's surface activity and its conformation, assembly, and morphology at the interface. A beta readily adsorbed to the air/subphase interface to form a 20 A thick film and showed a critical micelle concentration of similar to 120 nM. A beta adsorbed at the air/subphase exhibited in-plane ordering that gave rise to Bragg peaks in grazing-incidence x-ray diffraction measurements. Analysis of the peaks showed that the air/subphase interface induced A beta to fold into a beta-sheet conformation and to self-assemble into similar to 100 A-sized ordered clusters. The formation of these clusters at the air/subphase interface was not affected by pH, salts, or the presence of sucrose or urea, which are known to stabilize or denature native proteins, suggesting that interface-driven A beta misfolding and assembly are strongly favored. Furthermore, A beta at the interface seeded the growth of fibrils in the bulk with a distinct morphology compared to those formed by homogeneous nucleation. Our results indicate that interface-induced A beta misfolding may serve as a heterogeneous, nucleation-controlled aggregation mechanism for A beta fibrillogenesis in vivo.

AB Background: Pseudomonas putida is a model organism for bioremediation because of its remarkable metabolic versatility, extensive biodegradative functions, and ubiquity in contaminated soil environments. To further the understanding of molecular pathways responding to the heavy metal chromium(VI) [Cr(VI)], the proteome of aerobically grown, Cr(VI)-stressed P. putida strain F1 was characterized within the context of two disparate nutritional environments: rich (LB) media and minimal (M9L) media containing lactate as the sole carbon source.
Results: Growth studies demonstrated that F1 sensitivity to Cr(VI) was impacted substantially by nutrient conditions, with a carbon-source-dependent hierarchy (lactate > glucose >> acetate) observed in minimal media. Two-dimensional HPLC-MS/MS was employed to identify differential proteome profiles generated in response to 1 mM chromate under LB and M9L growth conditions. The immediate response to Cr(VI) in LB-grown cells was up-regulation of proteins involved in inorganic ion transport, secondary metabolite biosynthesis and catabolism, and amino acid metabolism. By contrast, the chromate-responsive proteome derived under defined minimal growth conditions was characterized predominantly by up-regulated proteins related to cell envelope biogenesis, inorganic ion transport, and motility. TonB-dependent siderophore receptors involved in ferric iron acquisition and amino acid adenylation domains characterized up-regulated systems under LB-Cr(VI) conditions, while DNA repair proteins and systems scavenging sulfur from alternative sources (e. g., aliphatic sulfonates) tended to predominate the up-regulated proteome profile obtained under M9L-Cr(VI) conditions.
Conclusions: Comparative analysis indicated that the core molecular response to chromate, irrespective of the nutritional conditions tested, comprised seven up-regulated proteins belonging to six different functional categories including transcription, inorganic ion transport/metabolism, and amino acid transport/ metabolism. These proteins might potentially serve as indicators of chromate stress in natural microbial communities.

AB The Australian-Antarctic Basin (AAB) is known for its high levels of intraseasonal variability; sea-surface height variability exceeds background values by factors of 2 over thousands of kilometers. This paper addresses the hypothesis that this variability is caused by trapping of barotropic energy by the basin geometry. Analysis of a multi-year integration of a shallow-water model shows that the variability is dominated by a single, large-scale statistical mode that is highly coherent over the entire AAB. The flow associated with this mode is northwestward along the Southeast Indian Ridge, southward in the Kerguelen Abyssal Plain, and eastward in the southern AAB. The mode is interpreted as an almost-free topographically trapped mode, as it is confined by contours of potential vorticity that almost entirely enclose the AAB. The apex of the Wilkes Abyssal Plain represents the strongest barrier to the modal circulation: here velocities are strongest, making it a key area for dissipation of kinetic energy through bottom friction and eddy viscosity.

AB Several of the Hanford waste tanks contain significant quantities of boehmite. This boehmite will be dissolved through caustic leaching as part of the Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant (WTP) currently under construction. Therefore, it is important to fully understand the nature of this dissolution process so that caustic leaching can be effectively deployed on the Hanford tank wastes. This research determined the impact of aluminate ion on the dissolution kinetics of boehmite. In addition, other parameters that impact boehmite dissolution, such reaction temperature, were also assessed and used to develop a semiempirical model of the boehmite dissolution process. A shrinking core model was used to fit data from a series of boehmite dissolution tests with an additional term added to account for the approach to saturation. This revised model provided an adequate fit to the experimental data; however, a superior fit to the experimental data was obtained when a term was added to represent the number of dissolution sites available at the start of the reaction. These results suggest that boehmite will dissolve significantly slower as gibbsite dissolves and adds aluminate to the solution. Practically, these results indicate that the blending of wastes with gibbsite and boehmite will ultimately result in either more caustic or more time required to achieve the same fraction of boehmite dissolution.

TI Hybrid simulations of the plasma environment around Enceladus

ID SATURN; MAGNETOSPHERE; ATMOSPHERE; PLUME; ION
AB The plasma environment around Enceladus is governed by the interaction between the corotating plasma with the body of the moon and the neutral gas associated with Saturn's extended cloud and plumes ejected from its southern polar region. To understand the nature of this interaction, we use 3-D electromagnetic hybrid simulations that treat ions kinetically through particle-in-cell methods and treat the electrons as a charge-neutralizing fluid. In these simulations, plasma interaction with the neutrals takes place through charge exchange. The results show that plasma absorption by Enceladus forms a tail-like density cavity behind the moon and a depletion wake which is confined in the direction perpendicular to the magnetic field but extends many Enceladus radii along the magnetic field. Except in the cavity tail, the flow is not slowed by the interaction but is diverted toward the cavity in a symmetric fashion. Interaction of the corotating plasma with the extended neutrals results in the generation of ion cyclotron waves and plasma deceleration to velocities below the corotation speed. The results also show that the extent to which the presence of a plume in the southern pole affects the nature of the interaction depends on its density. For plumes with base densities of similar to 10(6)/cm(3) (6.5 x 10(29) molecules in the plume) or lower we find no significant impacts, while plumes with base densities of similar to 10(7)/cm(3) and larger are found to greatly impact the interaction region. Specifically, the interaction is no longer symmetric with a density cavity tail in the Northern Hemisphere and a density enhancement tail in the Southern Hemisphere. At base densities of similar to 10(8)/cm(3), a strong Alfven wing is also generated in the interaction. Preliminary comparisons of the simulations with the Cassini Plasma Spectrometer data during the 12 March 2008 encounter with Enceladus suggest plume base densities of similar to 5 x 10(8)/cm(3) corresponding to production of similar to 4 kg/s of new ions.

TI Hydrogenation of Nanocrystalline Mg at Room Temperature in the Presence

AB Magnesium and magnesium-based alloys are considered attractive candidates as rechargeable hydrogen storage materials because of their high hydrogen storage capacities (theoretically up to 7.6 wt %), reversibility, and low cost. In this work, the hydrogenation of nanocrystalline magnesium at room temperature in the presence of TiH2 was studied. The magnesium was derived by dehydrogenation of nanostructured MgH2-0.1TiH(2) prepared by using an ultra-high-energy and high-pressure planetary milling technique. Significant uptake of hydrogen by magnesium at room temperature was observed. The results demonstrate that the nanostructured MgH2-0.1TiH(2) system is superior to undoped nano- or micrometer-scaled MgH2 with respect to the hydrogenation properties of magnesium at room temperature. This finding is potentially useful for a range of energy applications including mobile or stationary hydrogen fuel cells, cooling medium in electricity generation, and differential pressure compressors.

AB Particle size is generally considered to be the primary factor in the design of nanocrystal photocatalysts, because the reduction of particle size increases the number of active sites. However, the benefit from the size reduction can be canceled by a higher electron-hole recombination rate due to the confined space in sphere-shaped nanoparticles. Here we report a mechanistic study on a novel nanobelt structure that overcomes the drawback of sphere-shaped nanoparticles. Single-crystalline anatase TiO2 nanobelts with two dominant surfaces of (101) facet exhibit enhanced photocatalytic activity over the nanosphere counterparts with an identical crystal phase and similar specific surface area. The ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations show that the exposed (101) facet of the nanobelts yields an enhanced reactivity with molecular O-2, facilitating the generation of superoxide radical. Moreover, the nanobelts exhibit a lower electron hole recombination rate than the nanospheres due to the following three reasons: (i) greater charge mobility in the nanobelts, which is enabled along the longitudinal dimension of the crystals; (ii) fewer localized states near the band edges and in the bandgap due to fewer unpassivated surface states in the nanobelts; and (iii) enhanced charge separation due to trapping of photogenerated electrons by chemisorbed molecular O-2 on the (101) facet. Our results suggest that the photocatalysis efficiency of nanocrystals can be significantly improved by tailoring the shape and the surface structure of nanocrystals, which provides a new concept for rational design and development of high-performance photocatalysts.

AB The energy efficiency of heat engines could be improved by the partial recovery of waste heat using thermoelectric (TE) generators. We show the possibility of designing nanostructured TE materials using colloidal inorganic nanocrystals functionalized with molecular antimony telluride complexes belonging to the family of Zintl ions. The unique advantage of using Zintl ions as the nanocrystal surface ligands is the possibility to convert them into crystalline metal chalcogenides, thus linking individual nanobuilding blocks into a macroscopic assembly of electronically coupled functional modules. This approach allows preserving the benefits of nanostructuring and quantum confinement while enabling facile charge transport through the interparticle boundaries. A developed methodology was applied for solution-based fabrication of nanostructured n- and p-type Bi(2-x)Sb(x)Te(3) alloys with tunable composition and PbTe-Sb(2)Te(3) nanocomposites with controlled grain size. Characterization of the TE properties of these materials showed that their Seebeck coefficients, electrical and thermal conductivities, and ZT values compared favorably with those of previously reported solution-processed TE materials.

AB A mesostructured chalcogenide built from Chevrel-type clusters [(Re6Se6Br2)Br6T](2-) linked by ditopic [Se-3](2-) anions and synthesized in the presence of a cationic surfactant template is reported. This new mesophase, h-C18PyReSeBr, exhibits remarkably well ordered hexagonal symmetry from which a reasonable structural model can be deduced on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction as well as pair distribution function (PDF) analysis. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis shows that h-C18PyReSeBr possesses an enormous interfacial area of 477 m(2)/g between the inorganic framework and the guest surfactant cations, which is comparable to that of mesoporous silicas when heavy metals contained in the framework are taken into consideration. The framework of h-C18PyReSeBr exhibits great flexibility and responds dynamically to the extraframework cations via an ion-exchange process.

AB Solution-phase photoinduced low-spin to high-spin conversion in the Fe-II polypyridyl complex [Fe(tren(py)(3))](2+) (where tren(py)3 is tris(2-pyridylmethyliminoethyl)amine) has been studied via picosecond soft X-ray spectroscopy. Following (1)A(1) -> (MLCT)-M-1 (metal-to-ligand charge transfer) excitation at 560 nm, changes in the iron L-2- and L-3-edges were observed concomitant with formation of the transient high-spin T-5(2) state. Charge-transfer multiplet calculations coupled with data acquired on low-spin and high-spin model complexes revealed a reduction in ligand field splitting of similar to 1 eV in the high-spin state relative to the singlet ground state. A significant reduction in orbital overlap between the central Fe-3d and the ligand N-2p orbitals was directly observed, consistent with the expected ca. 0.2 angstrom increase in Fe-N bond length upon formation of the high-spin state. The overall occupancy of the Fe-3d orbitals remains constant upon spin crossover, suggesting that the reduction in a-donation is compensated by significant attenuation of pi-back-bonding in the metal ligand interactions. These results demonstrate the feasibility and unique potential of time-resolved soft X-ray absorption spectroscopy to study ultrafast reactions in the liquid phase by directly probing the valence orbitals of first-row metals as well as lighter elements during the course of photochemical transformations.

AB We have measured the conductance and characterized molecule-electrode binding geometries of four pyridine-terminated molecules by elongating and then compressing gold point contacts in a solution of molecules. We have found that all pyridine-terminated molecules exhibit bistable conductance signatures, signifying that the nature of the pyridine-gold bond allows two distinct conductance states that are accessed as the gold-molecule-gold junction is elongated. We have identified the low-conductance state as corresponding to a molecule fully stretched out between the gold electrodes, where the distance between contacts correlates with the length of the molecule; the high-conductance state is due to a molecule bound at an angle. For all molecules, we have found that the distribution of junction elongations in the low-conductance state is the same, while in the high-conductance state, the most likely elongation length increases linearly with molecule length. The results of first-principles conductance calculations for the four molecules in the low-conductance geometry agree well with the experimental results and show that the dominant conducting channel in the conjugated pyridine-linked molecules is through the pi* orbital.

AB Direct atomic layer deposition (ALD) on composite electrodes leads to ultrathin conformal protective coatings without disrupting inter-particle electronic pathways. Al(2)O(3)-coated natural graphite (NG) electrodes obtained by direct ALD on the as-formed electrode show exceptionally durable capacity retention even at an elevated temperature of 50 degrees C. In sharp contrast, ALD on powder results in poorer cycle retention than bare NC.

AB The thermodynamic and kinetic properties of interactions of antibiotics with the aminoglycoside acetyltransferase (3)-IIIb (AAC) are determined with several experimental methods. These data represent the first such characterization of an enzyme that modifies the 2-deoxystreptamine ring common to all aminoglycoside antibiotics. Antibiotic substrates For AAC include kanamycin A, kanamycin B, tobramycin, sisomicin, neomycin B, paromomycin, lividomycin A, and ribostamycin. Kinetic studies show that kanamycin group aminoglycosides have higher k(cat) values than members of the neomycin group. Only small aminoglycosides without intraring constraints show substrate inhibition. Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and fluorescence measurements are consistent with a molecular size-dependent stoichiometry where binding stoichiometries are 1.5-2.0 for small antibiotics and 1.0 for larger. Antibiotic-enzyme interaction occurs with a favorable enthalpy (Delta H < 0) and a compensating unfavorable entropy (T Delta S < 0). The presence of coenzyme A significantly increases the affinity of the antibiotic for AAC. However, the thermodynamic properties of its ternary complexes distinguish this enzyme from other aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes (AGMEs). Unlike other AGMEs, the enthalpy of binding becomes more favored by 1.7-10.0-fold in the presence of the cosubstrate CoASH, while the entropy becomes 2.0-22.5-fold less favored. The overall free energy change is still only 1.0-1.9 kcal/mol from binary to ternary for all antibiotics tested, which is similar to those for other aminoglycoside-modifying enzymes. A computationally derived homology model provides structural support for these conclusions and further indicates that AAC is likely a member of the GCN5-related acetyltransferase family of proteins.

AB in this work, the binding of coenzyme A (CoASH) to the aminoglycoside acetyltransferase (3)-IIIb (AAC) is studied by several experimental techniques. These data represent the first thermodynamic and kinetic characterization of interaction of a cofactor with an enzyme that modifies the 2-deoxystreptamine ring (2-DOS) common to all aminoglycoside antibiotics. Acetyl coenzyme A (AcCoA) was the preferred substrate, but propionyl and malonyl CoA were also substrates. CoASH associates with two different sites on AAC as confirmed by ITC, NMR, and fluorescence experiments: one with a high-affinity, catalytic site and a secondary, low-affinity site that overlaps with the antibiotic binding pocket. The binding of CoASH to the high-affinity site occurs with a small, unfavorable enthalpy and a favorable entropy. Binding to the second site is highly exothermic and is accompanied by an unfavorable entropic contribution. The presence of an aminoglycoside alters the binding of CoASH to AAC dramatically such that the binding occurs with a favorable enthalpy (Delta H < 0) and an unfavorable entropy (T Delta S < 0). This is irrespective of which aminoglycoside is the cosubstrate and occurs without a significant change in the affinity of CoASH for AAC. Also, antibiotics eliminate binding of CoASH to the second site. These data allowed the enthalpies of all six equilibria present in a ternary system (AAC antibiotic coenzyme) to be determined for the first time for an aminodycoside-modifying enzyme. NMR experiments also shed light on the dynamic nature of AAC as fast, slow, and intermediary exchanges between apoenzyme- and coenzyme-bound forms were observed.

AB We incorporate shear strain localization into spontaneous elastodynamic rupture simulations using a shear transformation zone (STZ) friction law. In the STZ model, plastic strain in the granular fault gouge occurs in local regions called STZs. The number density of STZs is governed by an effective disorder temperature, and regions with elevated effective temperature have an increased strain rate. STZ theory resolves the dynamic evolution of the effective temperature across the width of the fault zone. Shear bands spontaneously form in the model due to feedbacks amplifying heterogeneities in the initial effective temperature. In dynamic earthquake simulations, strain localization is a mechanism for dynamic fault weakening. A shear band dynamically forms, reduces the sliding stress, and decreases the frictional energy dissipation on the fault. We investigate the effect of the dynamic weakening due to localization in generating pulse-like, crack-like, and supershear rupture. Our results illustrate that the additional weakening and reduction of on-fault energy dissipation due to localization have a significant impact on the initial shear stress required for supershear or pulse-like rupture to propagate on a fault.

AB We are developing and testing a steep-incidence D region sounding method for inferring profile information, principally regarding electron density. The method uses lightning emissions (in the band 5-500 kHz) as the probe signal. The data are interpreted by comparison against a newly developed single-reflection model of the radio wave's encounter with the lower ionosphere. The ultimate application of the method will be to study transient, localized disturbances of the nocturnal D region, including those instigated by lightning itself. Prior to applying the method to study lightning-induced perturbations of the nighttime D region, we have performed a validation test against more stable and predictable daytime observations, where the profile of electron density is largely determined by direct solar X-ray illumination. This article reports on the validation test. Predictions from our recently developed full-wave ionospheric-reflection model are compared to statistical summaries of daytime lightning radiated waveforms, recorded by the Los Alamos Sferic Array. The comparison is used to retrieve best fit parameters for an exponential profile of electron density in the ionospheric D region. The optimum parameter values are compared to those found elsewhere using a narrowband beacon technique, which used totally different measurements, ranges, and modeling approaches from those of the work reported here.

AB Photolabeling was employed to probe charge separation and the distribution of redox-active sites on the surface of nanosheets derived from the layered photocatalysts KCa(2)Nb(3)O(10). Electron microscopy reveals 1-50 nm particles of silver, gold, iridium oxide, and manganese dioxide particles and small atomically sized clusters of platinum and IrO(x) on the nanosheet surfaces and along the edges. The sizes, shapes, and particle densities vary with the deposition conditions, i.e., the precursor concentration and the presence of sacrificial agents. Overall, the study shows that photogenerated electrons and holes are accessible throughout the nanosheets, without evidence for spatial charge separation across the sheet.

AB Biological supramolecules offer attractive templates for nanoparticle synthesis and nanodevice fabrication because of their precise size and shape. Viruses in particular have gained significant attention in nanodevice fabrication for applications such as nanoelectronics, batteries, catalysis, and sensing. However, the performance range of these viral nanoparticle-complexes is not well known because of the lack of fundamental studies on their properties. In this work, we employ in situ grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) to examine the thermal stability of viral-nanoparticle complexes composed of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) and palladium nanoparticles. Specifically, we show that the stability of the Pd nanoparticles on TMV is significantly enhanced as compared to that of particles on the solid substrate surface. Furthermore, we show that the agglomeration of Pd nanoparticles and the degradation of the TMV templates are coupled and occur simultaneously. These results demonstrate a potent methodology toward the in situ analysis of subtle changes in viral-nanoparticle complexes in dynamic environments. We envision that the results and methodology demonstrated in this study could be applied to better understand the properties and dynamic behaviors of organic-inorganic hybrid materials and nanodevices in various applications.

AB Evolution of flight in maniraptoran dinosaurs is marked by the acquisition of distinct avian characters, such as feathers, as seen in Archaeopteryx from the Solnhofen limestone. These rare fossils were pivotal in confirming the dinosauria-avian lineage. One of the key derived avian characters is the possession of feathers, details of which were remarkably preserved in the Lagerstatte environment. These structures were previously simply assumed to be impressions; however, a detailed chemical analysis has, until now, never been completed on any Archaeopteryx specimen. Here we present chemical imaging via synchrotron rapid scanning X-ray fluorescence (SRS-XRF) of the Thermopolis Archaeopteryx, which shows that portions of the feathers are not impressions but are in fact remnant body fossil structures, maintaining elemental compositions that are completely different from the embedding geological matrix. Our results indicate phosphorous and sulfur retention in soft tissue as well as trace metal (Zn and Cu) retention in bone. Other previously unknown chemical details of Archaeopteryx are also revealed in this study including: bone chemistry, taphonomy (fossilization process), and curation artifacts. SRS-XRF represents a major advancement in the study of the life chemistry and fossilization processes of Archaeopteryx and other extinct organisms because it is now practical to image the chemistry of large specimens rapidly at concentration levels of parts per million. This technique has wider application to the archaeological, forensic, and biological sciences, enabling the mapping of "unseen" compounds critical to understanding biological structures, modes of preservation, and environmental context.

AB Multivalent transition metal impurities in semiconductors are known to create deep levels inside the band gap that are associated with changes in the oxidation state. Some emerging functional semiconductor materials now contain multivalent elements not just as impurities, but as part of their structural skeleton ("multivalent semiconductors"). This raises the possibility that the performance of such materials may be affected by those skeleton elements transitioning from one oxidation state to another, in response to charge-altering perturbations such as illumination or doping. Here we address the correlation between multivalency and the electronic properties of these new semiconductor materials. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3427433]

AB We present an electromechanical stability analysis of passivated parallel-plate electrostatic actuators in conductive dielectric media and show that the pull-in instability can be eliminated by tuning the applied frequency below a design-dependent stability limit. A partial instability region is also obtained, where the actuator jumps from the pull-in displacement to another stable position within the gap. The results predict that the stability limit is always greater than the critical actuation frequency, and therefore any device that is feasible to actuate in a conductive fluid can be operated with stability over the full range of motion.

AB We construct a phase diagram for silicon layer growth on (001) Si by hot-wire chemical vapor deposition (HWCVD), for rates from 10 to 150 nm/min and for substrate temperatures from 500 to 800 degrees C. Our results show that a mixed mono and dihydride surface termination during growth causes polycrystalline growth; some H-free sites are needed for epitaxy. For epitaxial films (T>620 degrees C), the dislocation density decreases with increasing growth temperature because of reduced O contamination of the surface. The best HWCVD epitaxial layers have dislocation densities of 10(5) cm(-2). (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3422474]

AB High-fidelity surface enhanced Raman spectra (SERS) of Rhodamine 6G and 2-mercaptopyrimidine liquid solutions are measured using a microfluidic delivery system constructed on a flat silver substrate. Microscopic plasmon lenses patterned in the silver film focus surface plasmons into a subwavelength spot which yields the light amplification required for SERS. The system provides an efficiency similar to traditional colloidal substrates, and allows multiple sample loading. We find that the main contribution to the spectra comes from the molecules directly attached to the silver surface, which gives strong evidence for the chemical enhancement of SERS.

AB Hybrid devices built from organic and inorganic moieties are being actively researched as replacements for inorganic electronics, thermoelectrics, and photovoltaics. However, energy transport and conversion, at the organic-inorganic interface is not well understood. One approach to study this interface is to look at the smallest hybrid building block - the heterojunction of a single organic molecule with inorganic contacts. We present a review of this work, focused on fundamental transport properties of metal-molecule-metal junctions that are related to thermoelectric energy conversion, i.e., electronic conductance, thermopower, and thermal conductance. We describe the motives, strategies, and future directions for considering heterojunctions as building blocks for thermoelectric materials. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

ID TOTAL-ENERGY CALCULATIONS; WAVE BASIS-SET
AB We perform first-principles calculations on single- or dimer-Cu-absorbed-BN sheet. It was found that the band gap of BN sheet was reduced due to the emergence of certain impurity states arisen from Cu atom. The value of band gap depends on the adsorption configuration. Unpaired electron in absorbed single- Cu atom is polarized causing a magnetic moment of 1.0 mu(B), while no magnetic moment has been detected after dimer-Cu adsorption. Comparing the analogous carbon nanostructures, Cu-absorbed BN sheet is more resistant to oxidation and thereby is more experimentally accessible. (C) 2010 Elsevier B. V. All rights reserved.

DE Internet infrastructure; Network modeling; Infrastructure protection
AB The Internet has evolved into an indispensable component of our daily lives and protecting its critical infrastructure has thus become a crucial task. In this work, we present and compare different methods to assess the criticality of individual facilities of the Internet infrastructure at a national-level: graph-theoretical analysis, route-based analysis, traffic-based analysis, and consequence-based analysis. Our key observations are: (1) The geographical topology, which is derived from a national-level IP backbone network, has a power-law degree distribution and is a small-world network; (2) A few locations appear much more frequently among all paths in the IP backbone topology than others, and they also witness a high percentage of US Internet traffic. (3) Relative ranking of Internet facility locations from traffic-based analysis differs significantly from those derived from graph-theoretical analysis and route-based analysis, suggesting that a comprehensive, high-fidelity Internet model is necessary to assess critical Internet infrastructure facilities. (4) Consequence-based analysis, although computationally intense, cannot be replaced by other rankings, including traffic-based analysis. Conclusions drawn from this work extend our knowledge regarding the Internet and also shed lights on which critical Internet infrastructure facilities should be protected with limited resources.

AB One of the challenges in the chemistry of actinide and lanthanide (f-ion) complexes is quantifying exchange coupling of f-ions. While qualitative information about exchange coupling may be readily obtained using the diamagnetic substitution approach, obtaining quantitative information is much more difficult. This article describes how exchange coupling may be quantified using the susceptibility of a magnetically isolated analog, as in the diamagnetic substitution approach, along with the anisotropy of the ground state, as determined by EPA spectroscopy. Several examples are used to illustrate and test this approach.

AB We present a detailed theoretical study of the pathway for water oxidation in synthetic ruthenium-based catalysts. As a first step, we consider a recently discovered single center catalyst, where experimental observations suggest a purely single-center mechanism. We find low activation energies (<5 kcal/mol) for each rearrangement in the catalytic cycle. In the crucial step of O-O bond formation, a solvent water acts as a Lewis base and attacks a highly oxidized Ru(V)=O. Armed with the structures and energetics of the single-center catalyst, we proceed to consider a representative Ru-dimer which was designed to form O(2) via coupling between the two centers. We discover a mechanism that proceeds in analogous fashion to the monomer case, with all the most significant steps occurring at a single catalytic center within the dimer. This acid base mechanism suggests a new set of strategies for the rational design of multicenter catalysts: rather than coordinating the relative orientations of the subunits, one can focus on coordinating solvation-shell water molecules or tuning redox potentials.

AB A crystallographic study and theoretical analysis of the Si/Ga site preferences in the Gd5GaxSi4-x series is presented. Gd5GaxSi4-x adopt the orthorhombic Gd5Si4-type structure (space group Pnma, Z = 4) with a maximum Ga content near x = 1.00, as determined by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. Refinements from single crystal X-ray diffraction studies of the three independent sites for Si/Ga atoms in the asymmetric unit (interslab T1, intraslab T2 and T3) reveal partial mixing of these elements, with a clear preference for Ga substitution at the interslab T1 sites. To investigate site preferences of Si/Ga atoms, first-principles electronic structure calculations were carried out using the Vienna ab initio simulation package (VASP) and the Stuttgart tight-binding, linear-muffin-tin orbital program with the atomic sphere approximation (TB-LMTO-ASA). Analysis of various crystal orbital Hamilton population (COHP) curves provide some further insights into the structural tendencies and indicate the roles of both sizes and electronegativities of Ga and Si toward influencing the observed upper limit in Ga content in Gd5GaxSi4-x. The magnetic properties of two Gd5GaxSi4-x phases are also reported: both show ferromagnetic behavior with Curie temperatures lower than that for Gd5Si4.

AB Thermodynamic concepts have been used in the past to predict microbial growth yield. This may be the key consideration in many industrial biotechnology applications. It is not the case, however, in the context of ethanol fuel production. In this paper, we examine the thermodynamics of fermentation and concomitant growth of baker's yeast in continuous culture experiments under anaerobic, glucose-limited conditions, with emphasis on the yield and efficiency of bio-ethanol production. We find that anaerobic metabolism of yeast is very efficient; the process retains more than 90% of the maximum work that could be extracted from the growth medium supplied to the chemostat reactor. Yeast cells and other metabolic by-products are also formed, which reduces the glucose-to-ethanol conversion efficiency to less than 75%. Varying the specific ATP consumption rate, which is the fundamental parameter in this paper for modeling the energy demands of cell growth, shows the usual trade-off between ethanol production and biomass yield. The minimum ATP consumption rate required for synthesizing cell materials leads to biomass yield and Gibbs energy dissipation limits that are much more severe than those imposed by mass balance and thermodynamic equilibrium constraints.

AB Monoamine oxidase A (MAO A) is an enzyme that catalyzes the oxidation of neurotransmitter amines. A functional polymorphism in the human MAOA gene (high- and low-MAOA) has been associated with distinct behavioral phenotypes. To investigate directly the biological mechanism whereby this polymorphism influences brain function, we recently measured the activity of the MAO A enzyme in healthy volunteers. When found no relationship between the individual's brain MAO A level and the MAOA genotype, we postulated that there are additional regulatory mechanisms that control the MAOA expression. Given that DNA methylation is linked to the regulation of gene expression, we hypothesized that epigenetic mechanisms factor into the MAOA expression. Our underplaying assumption was that the differences in an individual's genotype play a key role in the epigenetic potential of the MAOA locus and, consequently, determine the individual's level of MAO A activity in the brain. As a first step towards experimental validation of the hypothesis, we performed a comprehensive bioinformatic analysis aiming to interrogate genomic features and attributes of the MAOA locus that might modulate its epigenetic sensitivity. Major findings of our analysis are the following: (1) the extended MAOA regulatory region contains two CpG islands (CGIs), one of which overlaps with the canonical MAOA promoter and the other is located further upstream; both CGIs exhibit sensitivity to differential methylation. (2) The uVNTR's effect on the MAOA's transcriptional activity might have epigenetic nature: this polymorphic region resides within the MAOA's CGI and itself contains CpGs, thus, the number of repeating increments effectively changes the number of methylatable cytosines in the MAOA promoter. An array of in silico analyses (the nucleosome positioning, the physical properties of the local DNA, the clustering of transcription-factor binding sites) together with experimental data on histone modifications and Pol 2 sites and data from the RefSeq mRNA library suggest that the MAOA gene might have an alternative promoter. Based on our findings, we propose a regulatory mechanism for the human MAOA according to which the MAOA expression in vivo is executed by the generation of tissue-specific transcripts initiated from the alternative promoters (both CGI-associated) where transcriptional activation of a particular promoter is under epigenetic control.

AB Membrane-extraction ion mobility spectrometry (ME-IMS) has been developed for in situ sampling and analysis of trace chlorinated hydrocarbons in water in a single procedure. The sampling is configured so that aqueous contaminants permeate through a spiral hollow poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) membrane and are carried away by a vapor flow through the membrane tube. The extracted analyte flows into an atmospheric-pressure chemical-ionization (APCI) chamber and is analyzed in a specially made IMS analyzer. The PDMS membrane was found to effectively extract chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents from the liquid phase to vapor. The specialized IMS analyzer has measured resolutions of R = 33 and 41, respectively, for negative- and positive-modes and is capable of detecting aqueous tetrachloroethylene (PCE) and trichloroethylene (ICE) as low as 80 and 74 mu g/L in the negative ion mode, respectively. The time-dependent characteristics of sampling and detection of ICE are both experimentally and theoretically studied for various concentrations, membrane lengths, and flow rates. These characteristics demonstrate that membrane-extraction IMS is feasible for the continuous monitoring of chlorinated hydrocarbons in water.

TI Signature-Discovery Approach for Sample Matching of a Nerve-Agent
Precursor Using Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry, XCMS, and
Chemometrics
SO ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
LA English
DT Article
ID METABOLOMICS; ALIGNMENT
AB This report demonstrates the use of bioinformatic and chemometric tools on liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) data for the discovery of trace forensic signatures for sample matching of ten stocks of the nerve-agent precursor known as methylphosphonic dichloride (dichlor). XCMS, a software tool primarily used in bioinformatics, was used to comprehensively search and find candidate LC-MS peaks in a known set of dichlor samples. These candidate peaks were down selected to a group of 34 impurity peaks. Hierarchal cluster analysis and factor analysis demonstrated the potential of these 34 impurities peaks for matching samples based on their stock source. Only one pair of dichlor stocks was not differentiated from one another. An acceptable chemometric approach for sample matching was determined to be variance scaling and signal averaging of normalized duplicate impurity profiles prior to classification by K-nearest neighbors. Using this approach, a test set of seven dichlor samples were all correctly matched to their source stock. The sample preparation and LC-MS method permitted the detection of dichlor impurities quantitatively estimated to be in the parts-per-trillion (w/w). The detection of a common impurity in all dichlor stocks that were synthesized over a 14-year period and by different manufacturers was an unexpected discovery. Our described signature-discovery approach should be useful in the development of a forensic capability to assist investigations following chemical attacks.

AB The effect of PdZn particle size on the catalytic activity of Pd/ZnO catalysts for the reverse-water-gasshift (RWGS) reaction was studied. The PdZn particle size was varied by adjusting Pd loading and reducing the catalysts at different temperatures. XRD and IR spectroscopy characterization confirmed the absence of metallic Pd on the catalyst surface. Consequently, the effect of PdZn alloy particle size on the RWGS reaction can be unambiguously studied without the complication of reactions catalyzed by metallic Pd. The results indicated that the turnover frequency increases as the PdZn crystallite size decreases. Interestingly, this structure relationship between PdZn particle size and RWGS activity is consistent with that previously observed for the steam reforming of methanol, i.e., higher CO selectivity on smaller PdZn particles. Thus, RWGS has been identified as a likely potential reaction pathway to undesired CO formation in methanol steam reforming on Pd/ZnO catalysts for hydrogen production. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Mono-metallic nickel and rhodium catalysts and bimetallic Ni-Rh catalysts supported on La-Al(2)O(3), CeZrO(2) and CeMgO(x) were prepared and evaluated for catalyzing the steam and autothermal reforming of n-butane. The binary Ni-Rh supported on La-Al(2)O(3) catalysts with low weight loading of rhodium exhibited higher H(2) yields than Ni or Rh alone. The Ni-Rh/CeZrO(2) catalyst exhibited higher performance and no coke formation, compared to the same metals on other supports. A NiAl(2)O(4) spinel phase was obtained on all Ni and Ni-Rh catalysts supported on La-Al(2)O(3). The presence of rhodium stabilized the spinel phase as well as NiO(x) species upon reforming while Ni alone was mostly reduced into metallic species. Extended X-ray absorption fine-structure analysis showed evidence of Ni-Rh alloy during preparation and even further after an accelerated aging at 900 degrees C in a H(2)/H(2)O atmosphere.

AB SSR149415 was the first non-peptide vasopressin-(V-1b) receptor antagonist reported. It has been used to probe the role of V-1b receptors in animal models of depression, aggression, and stress-anxiety, and was progressed to clinical trials for the treatment of depression. Due to the interest in V-1b receptors as a therapeutic target and the growing use of SSR149415 in preclinical research, we developed a method to label SSR145419 with carbon-11 and have studied its pharmacokinetics in non-human primates using positron emission tomography.

AB Checkpoint activation benefits DNA homologous recombination repair and; therefore, protects cells from ionizing radiation (IR)-induced killing. CHK1 is one of the most important checkpoint regulators in mammalian cells. We recently reported that matrix extracellular phosphoglycoprotein/osteoblast factor 45 (MEPE/OF45) stabilizes CHK1 through interacting with CHK1, thus protecting cells from IR-induced killing. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether a small peptide that mimics the key domain of MEPE/OF45 could interact with CHK1 and protect cells from IR-induced killing. We showed here that the synthesized peptide with 18 amino acids (aa) could enter human transformed lymphoblasts when it is linked to fatty acid CH 3 (CH 2) 8 CO. After the 18 aa peptide entered the human cells, it interacted with CHK1, increased the CHK1 level and induced a stronger G 2 arrest in the cells following IR. More importantly, the 18 aa peptide could protect the cells from IR-induced killing. Our data indicate that the 18 aa peptide, similar to MEPE/OF45, reduces CHK1 degradation and protects cells from IR-induced killing. We believe that these results provide useful information for drug development in two directions: protect cells from IR-induced damage and sensitize cells to radiation therapy.

AB The metameric organization of the insect body plan is initiated with the activation of gap genes, a set of transcription-factor-encoding genes that are zygotically expressed in broad and partially overlapping domains along the anteroposterior (AP) axis of the early embryo. The spatial pattern of gap gene expression domains along the AP axis is generally conserved, but the maternal genes that regulate their expression are not. Building on the comprehensive knowledge of maternal gap gene activation in Drosophila, we used loss-and gain-of-function experiments in the hover fly Episyrphus balteatus (Syrphidae) to address the question of how the maternal regulation of gap genes evolved. We find that, in Episyrphus, a highly diverged bicoid ortholog is solely responsible for the AP polarity of the embryo. Episyrphus bicoid represses anterior zygotic expression of caudal and activates the anterior and central gap genes orthodenticle, hunchback and Kruppel. In bicoid-deficient Episyrphus embryos, nanos is insufficient to generate morphological asymmetry along the AP axis. Furthermore, we find that torso transiently regulates anterior repression of caudal and is required for the activation of orthodenticle, whereas all posterior gap gene domains of knirps, giant, hunchback, tailless and huckebein depend on caudal. We conclude that all maternal coordinate genes have altered their specific functions during the radiation of higher flies (Cyclorrhapha).

AB The prospect of biofuel production on a large scale has focused attention on energy efficiencies associated with different agricultural systems and production goals. We used 17 years of detailed data on agricultural practices and yields to calculate an energy balance for different cropping systems under both food and fuel scenarios. We compared four grain and one forage systems in the U.S. Midwest corn (Zea mays) - soybean (Glycine max) - wheat (Triticum aestivum) rotations managed with (1) conventional tillage, (2) no till, (3) low chemical input, and (4) biologically based (organic) practices, and (5) continuous alfalfa (Medicago sativa). We compared energy balances under two scenarios: all harvestable biomass used for food versus all harvestable biomass used for biofuel production. Among the annual grain crops, average energy costs of farming for the different systems ranged from 4.8 GJ ha(-1) y(-1) for the organic system to 7.1 GJ ha(-1) y(-1) for the conventional; the no-till system was also low at 4.9 GJ ha(-1) y(-1) and the low-chemical input system intermediate (5.2 GJ ha(-1) y(-1)). For each system, the average energy output for food was always greater than that for fuel. Overall energy efficiencies ranged from output:input ratios of 10 to 16 for conventional and no-till food production and from 7 to 11 for conventional and no-till fuel production, respectively. Alfalfa for fuel production had an efficiency similar to that of no-till grain production for fuel. Our analysis points to a more energetically efficient use of cropland for food than for fuel production and large differences in efficiencies attributable to management, which suggests multiple opportunities for improvement.

AB Density functional and correlated molecular orbital calculations (MP2) are carried out on B(OH)(3)center dot nH(2)O clusters (n = 0, 6, 32), and B(OH)(4)(-)center dot nH(2)O (n = 0, 8, 11, 32) to estimate the equilibrium distribution of B-10 and B-11 isotopes between boric acid and borate in aqueous solution. For the large 32-water clusters, multiple conformations are generated from ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to account for the effect of solvent fluctuations on the isotopic fractionation. We provide an extrapolated value of the equilibrium constant alpha(34) for the isotope exchange reaction B-10(OH)(3)(aq) + B-11(OH)(4)(-) (aq) = B-11(OH)(3)(aq) + B-11(OH)(4)(-) (aq) of 1.026-1.028 near the MP2 complete basis set limit with 32 explicit waters of solvation. With some exchange-correlation functionals we find potentially important contributions from a tetrahedral neutral B(OH)(3)center dot H2O Lewis acid-base complex. The extrapolations presented here suggest that DFT calculations give a value for 10(3)In alpha(34) about 15% higher than the MP2 calculations. (c) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The inhibitor of basic helix-loop-helix transcription factors, Id-1, is an important gene whose expression increases during prostate cancer progression and that upregulates proliferation, migration and invasion. We used microarray analysis to identify the downstream genes whose transcriptional expression is modulated by Id-1 protein. We compared gene expression in control LNCaP cells and Id-l-transduced LNCaP cells, which become significantly more aggressive after Id-1 overexpression, thus mimicking the high levels of Id-1 detected in metastatic cell lines. We used the Affy HTA U133A Expression Arrays with 45,000 probe sets representing more than 39,000 transcripts. We found that one of the most significantly downregulated genes on Id-1 expression was kallikrein 3 [also called prostate specific antigen (PSA)], the most commonly used biomarker of prostate cancer. Here, we show that the reduction in PSA mRNA and protein expression associated with high-grade prostate cancers, which generally express high levels of Id-1, could be the consequence of Id-1 overexpression.

AB InGaAs strain relaxation is studied by an in situ multibeam optical stress sensor (MOSS). Strain relaxation during growth of InGaAs on GaAs occurs at different thicknesses and rates along the directions perpendicular to its misfit dislocations, [110] and [1 (1) over bar0]. We show the asymmetry of relaxation between these directions in real time by aligning the MOSS laser array along [110] and [1 (1) over bar0]. This asymmetric relaxation data from the MOSS correlates with both x-ray diffraction relaxation analysis and an estimation of the misfit dislocation density from transmission electron microscopy images. Lowering the V/III ratio or raising the growth temperature lowers the thickness of the onset of dislocation formation, changes the relaxation rate, lowers the final relaxation during 2 mu m of growth, and shifts the initial direction of relaxation from [110] to [1 (1) over bar0]. We identify two phases of relaxation that occur at different growth thicknesses. Lowering the V/III ratio changes the relative contribution of each of these phases to the total relaxation of the epilayer. (C)2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3361533]

AB There are several studies in the literature regarding the equation of state of alumina-epoxy composites. Although these single component systems interact in a complex manner with shock waves, the addition of a second metal or ceramic particulate can result in even more complex interactions. This paper presents the shock equation of state results on a multi-phase composite Al-MnO2-epoxy. Equation of state experiments were conducted using three different loading techniques-single stage light gas gun, two stage light gas gun, and explosive loading-with multiple diagnostic techniques. The U-s-u(p) relationship is shown to be linear, with deviations from linearity at low, and possibly high, pressures due to the behavior of the epoxy binder. The experimental equation of state data is compared to volume averaged and mesoscale mixture models. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3357314]

of PbTiO3 film grown by PbO gas phase reaction sputtering
SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS

ID ATOMIC LAYER DEPOSITION; THIN-FILMS; MEMORY; NUCLEATION; MICROSCOPY
AB A 17 nm thick PbTiO3 (PTO) films were fabricated via PbO gas phase reaction with TiO2 starting layer in a sputtering chamber. The influence of deposition temperature of TiO2 on the piezoelectric properties of PTO thin films was investigated. The remnant piezoresponse of PTO films nonlinearly increased as a function of TiO2 deposition temperature, which is correlated with the increase in average grain diameter of PTO film. As grain size increases, the restriction on remnant piezoresponse imposed by the grain boundary via coupling between local strain and polarization becomes less pronounced, which results in the increase in remnant piezoresponse. Furthermore, we found that the vertical shift in piezoresponse hysteresis loops is closely related to the residual stress state. A strong correlation between the negative vertical shift and the residual tensile stress reveals that residual stress on the resulting PTO film contributed to the asymmetric piezoelectric property.

The tomographic results of an experiment with a 10 keV space-charge dominated electron beam are presented. The data are compared against a direct experimental sampling of the phase-space using a pinhole scan. It is found that the accuracy of the tomographic method is within 10% for beams with space-charge intensity less than 90%.

AB Mutations in sclerostin function or expression cause sclerosing bone dysplasias, involving decreased antagonism of Wnt/Lrp5 signaling. Conversely, deletion of the VHL tumor suppressor in osteoblasts, which stabilize HIF-alpha isoforms and thereby enables HIF-alpha/beta-driven gene transcription, increases bone mineral content and cross-sectional area compared to wild-type controls. We examined the influence of cellular hypoxia (1% oxygen) upon sclerostin expression and canonical Wnt signaling. Osteoblasts and osteocytes cultured under hypoxia revealed decreased sclerostin transcript and protein, and increased expression and nuclear localization of activated beta-catenin. Similarly, both hypoxia and the hypoxia mimetic DFO increased beta-catenin gene reporter activity. Hypoxia and its mimetics increased expression of the BMP antagonists gremlin and noggin and decreased Smad-1/5/8 phosphorylation. As a partial explanation for the mechanism of regulation of sclerostin by oxygen, MEF2 reporter assays revealed decreased activity. Modulation of VEGF signaling under normoxia or hypoxia revealed no influence upon Sost transcription. These data suggest that hypoxia inhibits sclerostin expression, through enhanced antagonism of BMP signaling independent of VEGF. J. Cell. Biochem. 110: 457-467, 2010. (C) 2010 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

AB We explored some unique defects in a batch of cadmium zinc telluride (CdZnTe) crystals, along with dislocations and Te-rich decorated features, revealed by chemical etching. We extensively investigated these distinctive imperfections in the crystals to identify their origin, dimensions, and distribution in the bulk material. We estimated that these features ranged from 50 to 500 mu m in diameter, and their depth was about 300 mu m. The density of these features ranged between 2 x 10(2) and 1 x 10(3) per cm(3). We elaborated a model of them and projected their effect on charge collection and spectral response. In addition, we fabricated detectors with these defective crystals and acquired fine details of charge-transport phenomena over the detectors' volume using a high-spatial resolution (25 mu m) X-ray response mapping technique. We related the results to better understand the defects and their influence on the charge-transport properties of the devices. The role of the defects was identified by correlating their signatures with the findings from our theoretical model and our experimental data. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The thermal stability of similar to 200-nm-thick InGaN thin films on GaN was investigated using isothermal and isochronal post-growth anneals. The In(x)Ga(1-x)N films (x = 0.08-0.18) were annealed in N(2) at 600-1000 degrees C for 15-60 min, and the resulting film degradation was monitored using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL) measurements. As expected, films with higher indium concentration showed more evidence for decomposition than the samples with lower indium concentration. Also for each alloy composition, decreases in the PL intensity were observed starting at much lower temperatures compared to decreases in the XRD intensity. This difference in sensitivity of the PL and XRD techniques to the InGaN decomposition suggest that defects that quench luminescence are generated prior to the onset of structural decomposition. For the higher indium concentration films, the bulk decomposition proceeds by forming metallic indium and gallium regions as observed by XRD. For the 18% indium concentration film, measurement of the temperature-dependent InGaN decomposition yields an activation energy, E(A), of 0.87 +/- 0.07 eV, which is similar to the E(A) for bulk InN decomposition. The InGaN integrated XRD signal of the 18% film displays an exponential decrease vs. time, implying InGaN decomposition proceeds via a first-order reaction mechanism. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Electromagnetic ion cyclotron (EMIC) waves may contribute to ring current ion and radiation belt electron losses, and theoretical studies suggest these processes may be most effective during the main phase of geomagnetic storms. However, ground-based signatures of EMIC waves, Pc1-Pc2 geomagnetic pulsations, are observed more frequently during the recovery phase. We investigate the association of EMIC waves with various storm phases in case and statistical studies of 22 geomagnetic storms over 1996-2003, with an associated Dst < -30 nT. High-resolution data from the GOES 8, 9, and 10 geosynchronous satellite magnetometers provide information on EMIC wave activity in the 0-1 Hz band over +/-3 days with respect to storm onset, defined as commencement of the negative excursion of Dst. Thirteen of 22 storms showed EMIC waves occurring during the main phase. In case studies of two storms, waves were seen with higher intensity in the main phase in one and the recovery phase in the other. Power spectral densities up to 500 nT(2) Hz(-1) were similar in prestorm, storm, and early recovery phases. Superposed epoch analysis of the 22 storms shows 78% of wave events during the main phase occurred in the He+ band. After storm onset the main phase contributed only 29% of events overall compared to 71% during recovery phase, up to 3 days. Some differences between storms were found to be dependent on the solar wind driver. Plasma plumes or an inflated plasmasphere may contribute to enhancing EMIC wave activity at geosynchronous orbit.

AB Phosphine (PH(3)) as a contaminant in coal syngas has been shown to cause permanent degradation on solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) anode performance. Previous studies on the performance degradation have been performed at constant current or constant voltage over the entire experiment. In this work, the effect of overpotential (difference between the open circuit voltage and the applied voltage) on rates of degradation of SOFC performance is examined. A commercial SOFC from MSRI is exposed in sequence to first hydrogen, then coal syngas and then coal syngas with 10 ppm PH(3). The rates of cell power density loss rates are monitored for three overpotentials (0.1, 0.2 and 0.3 V). There is no apparent correlation between the degradation rates and overpotential values. Post-mortem studies including SEM, XRD and XPS confirm the migration of nickel to the anode surface and the formation of a nickel phosphide phase. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Porous YSZ-Cu alloy cermet structures are prepared by sintering above the metal melting point in reducing atmosphere. Unexpectedly good wetting of the molten metal within the YSZ network is obtained, resulting in cermets with fine structure and excellent electronic conductivity. Anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells are prepared with YSZ-Cu alloy cermet as the anode. Addition of infiltrated ceria catalyst improved the initial performance. Maximum power density of about 275 mA cm(-2) and operation for about 110 h was achieved in the 700-800 degrees C range. After operation, AC impedance revealed that the high-frequency impedance was unchanged, whereas the low-frequency impedance increased. It was concluded that the Cu alloy network conductivity remains high, but catalyst stability needs improvement. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The free standing aluminum nanorods were grown on electrode and evaluated electrochemically as the anodes in the half-cell of Li-ion battery. The average diameter and length of the nanorods are 80 nm and 200 nm, respectively. The aligned nanorods demonstrated high capacity of 1243 mAh g(-1) at rate of 0.5 C. A gradual decrease of the initial capacity was observed. The characterization of the anodes shows that the changes of the crystalline structure and morphology during cycling may be responsible for the capacity decay. The appropriate selection of the substrate can overcome the problems and lead the sustainable high capacity. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We compute the electric-current susceptibility chi of hot quark-gluon matter in an external magnetic field B. The difference between the susceptibilities measured in the directions parallel and perpendicular to the magnetic field is ultraviolet-finite and given by chi(parallel to) - chi(perpendicular to) = V T N-c Sigma(f) q(f)(2) vertical bar q(f) B vertical bar/(2 pi(2)), where V denotes the volume, T the temperature, N-c the number of colors, and q(f). the charge of a quark of flavor f. This non-zero susceptibility difference acts as a background to the Chiral Magnetic Effect. i.e. the generation of electric current along the direction of magnetic field in the presence of topological charge. We propose a description of the Chiral Magnetic Effect that takes into account the fluctuations of electric current quantified by the susceptibility. We find that our results are in agreement with recent lattice QCD calculations. Our approach can be used to model the azimuthal dependence of charge correlations observed in heavy ion collisions.

TI Bulk Fermi surface coexistence with Dirac surface state in Bi2Se3: A
comparison of photoemission and Shubnikov-de Haas measurements
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID TOPOLOGICAL INSULATOR; MAGNETIC-FIELDS; BI2TE3
AB Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) are used to probe the Fermi surface of single crystals of Bi2Se3. We find that SdH and ARPES probes quantitatively agree on measurements of the effective mass and bulk band dispersion. In high carrier density samples, the two probes also agree in the exact position of the Fermi level E-F, but for lower carrier density samples discrepancies emerge in the position of E-F. In particular, SdH reveals a bulk three-dimensional Fermi surface for samples with carrier densities as low as 10(17) cm(-3). We suggest a simple mechanism to explain these differences and discuss consequences for existing and future transport studies of topological insulators.

TI Tuning the electronic properties of corrugated graphene: Confinement,
curvature, and band-gap opening
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID QUANTUM-MECHANICS; MEMBRANES; SURFACES; CARBON
AB It is shown that for monolayer graphene electrons are confined on a perfect two-dimensional surface. The implications for the electronic properties of corrugated graphene are discussed in view of a derivation of the constrained relativistic dynamics for the massless carriers in two dimensions in accord with the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Surface curvature is related to a series of phenomena with practical applications such as curvature induced p-n junctions, band-gap opening, and decoherence. We also establish a bending free energy by treating graphene as a soft electronic membrane.

AB We report nonresonant inelastic x-ray scattering from the semicore 5d levels of several actinide compounds. Dipole-forbidden, high-multipole features form a rich bound-state spectrum dependent on valence electron configuration and spin-orbit and Coulomb interactions. Cross-material comparisons, together with the anomalously high Coulomb screening required for agreement between atomic-multiplet theory and experiment, demonstrate sensitivity to the neighboring electronic environment, such as is needed to address longstanding questions of electronic localization and bonding in 5f compounds.

ID INVERSION-ASYMMETRY; CONDUCTION-BAND; INSB; GAAS; ORIENTATION; WURTZITE
AB We show that the band spin splitting caused by spin-orbit interaction in crystal structures with no inversion symmetry is strongly influenced by band anticrossing. The splitting is always enhanced for one of the anticrossing bands and suppressed for the other. There are two limiting cases. In the first, the spin splitting is completely suppressed for one of the bands and doubled for the other. In the second, the absolute value of the splitting is markedly enhanced for both bands approaching the magnitude of the hybridization gap. We demonstrate these effects in zinc-blende semiconductors with the help of first-principles GW calculations.

AB We investigate thermodynamic and electronic properties of group IV (C, Si, Ge, Sn) and group VI (O, S, Se, Te) impurities as well as P and H in aluminum antimonide (AlSb) using first-principles calculations. To this end, we compute the formation energies of a broad range of possible defect configurations including defect complexes with the most important intrinsic defects. We also obtain relative carrier scattering strengths for these defects to determine their impact on charge carrier mobility. Furthermore, we employ a self-consistent charge equilibration scheme to determine the net charge carrier concentrations for different temperatures and impurity concentrations. Thereby, we are able to study the effect of impurities incorporated during growth and identify optimal processing conditions for achieving compensated material. The key findings are summarized as follows. Among the group IV elements, C, Si, and Ge substitute for Sb and act as shallow acceptors, while Sn can substitute for either Sb or Al and displays amphoteric character. Among the group VI elements, S, Se, and Te substitute for Sb and act as deep donors. In contrast, O is most likely to be incorporated as an interstitial and predominantly acts as an acceptor. As a group V element, P substitutes for Sb and is electrically inactive. C and O are the most detrimental impurities to carrier transport, while Sn, Se, and Te have a modest to low impact. Therefore, Te can be used to compensate C and O impurities, which are unintentionally incorporated during the growth process, with minimal effect on the carrier mobilities.

TI Orbital magnetoelectric coupling in band insulators

AB Magnetoelectric responses are a fundamental characteristic of materials that break time-reversal and inversion symmetries (notably multiferroics) and, remarkably, of "topological insulators" in which those symmetries are unbroken. Previous work has shown how to compute spin and lattice contributions to the magnetoelectric tensor. Here we solve the problem of orbital contributions by computing the frozen-lattice electronic polarization induced by a magnetic field. One part of this response (the "Chern-Simons term") can appear even in time-reversal-symmetric materials and has been previously shown to be quantized in topological insulators. In general materials there are additional orbital contributions to all parts of the magnetoelectric tensor; these vanish in topological insulators by symmetry and also vanish in several simplified models without time reversal and inversion whose magnetoelectric couplings were studied before. We give two derivations of the response formula, one based on a uniform magnetic field and one based on extrapolation of a long-wavelength magnetic field, and discuss some of the consequences of this formula.

The method's accuracy is investigated by calculating work functions for the Al(111), Al(100), and Al(110) surfaces. We find that the results for work function do not depend on the density functional theory functional employed to calculate the starting Hamiltonian and that QSGW yield results in quantitative agreement with data from ultrahigh vacuum experiments.

AB We have determined how the anomalous exchange bias effect in Co/CoO nanoparticles of 11 nm in diameter depends on the Co core and CoO shell dimensions. The oxidation of the Co nanoparticles used in this study is carefully controlled, yielding highly crystalline and oriented interfaces. The dimensions of the core and shell are determined from magnetization and small angle x-ray scattering measurements. The exchange bias field in Co/CoO core-shell nanoparticles depends nonmonotonically on the CoO shell thickness, reaching a maximum value of approximate to 7 kOe at 30 K when the core and shell dimensions are similar. We propose that lattice strain induces a net moment at the core-shell interface, and it is the variation of this moment with strain, which is responsible for the vanishing of H-EB at both large and small Co shell thicknesses.

TI Continuum mechanics for quantum many-body systems: Linear response
regime
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID DENSITY-FUNCTIONAL THEORY; ELECTRON-GAS; HYDRODYNAMICS; EXCITATIONS;
EXPLOSION
AB We derive a closed equation of motion for the current density of an inhomogeneous quantum many-body system under the assumption that the time-dependent wave function can be described as a geometric deformation of the ground-state wave function. By describing the many-body system in terms of a single collective field we provide an alternative to traditional approaches, which emphasize one-particle orbitals. We refer to our approach as continuum mechanics for quantum many-body systems. In the linear response regime, the equation of motion for the displacement field becomes a linear fourth-order integrodifferential equation, whose only inputs are the one-particle density matrix and the pair-correlation function of the ground state. The complexity of this equation remains essentially unchanged as the number of particles increases. We show that our equation of motion is a Hermitian eigenvalue problem, which admits a complete set of orthonormal eigenfunctions under a scalar product that involves the ground-state density. Further, we show that the excitation energies derived from this approach satisfy a sum rule which guarantees the exactness of the integrated spectral strength. Our formulation becomes exact for systems consisting of a single particle and for any many-body system in the high-frequency limit. The theory is illustrated by explicit calculations for simple one-and two-particle systems.

AB We investigate the two-dimensional Hubbard model with next-nearest-neighbor hopping, t', using the dynamical cluster approximation. We confirm the existence of a first-order phase-separation transition terminating at a second-order critical point at filling n(c)(t') and temperature T(ps)(t'). We find that as t' approaches zero, T(ps)(t) vanishes and n(c)(t') approaches the filling associated with the quantum critical point separating the Fermi liquid from the pseudogap phase. We propose that the quantum critical point under the superconducting dome is the zero-temperature limit of the line of second-order critical points.

AB A resonant inelastic x-ray scattering study of the electronic structure of the semiconductor cuprous oxide, Cu2O, is reported. When the incident x-ray energy is tuned to the Cu K-absorption edge, large enhancements of the spectral features corresponding to the electronic transitions between the valence band and the conduction band are observed. A feature at 6.5 eV can be well described by an interband transition from occupied states of mostly Cu 3d character to unoccupied states with mixed 3d, 4s, and O 2p character. In addition, an insulating band gap is observed, and the momentum dependence of the lower bound is measured along the Gamma-R direction. This is found to be in good agreement with the valence-band dispersion measured with angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy.

TI Generalized Koopmans density functional calculations reveal the deep
acceptor state of N-O in ZnO
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID P-TYPE ZNO; AUGMENTED-WAVE METHOD; ENERGY; OXIDE
AB Applying a generalized Koopmans condition to recover the linear behavior of the energy with respect to the fractional occupation number, we find that substitutional nitrogen (N-O) in ZnO is a deep acceptor with an ionization energy of 1.6 eV, which is prohibitively large for p-type conductivity. Testing the generalized Koopmans condition in computationally more demanding hybrid-functional calculations, we obtain a very similar result for N-O, but find that the simultaneous correction of defect (acceptor-level) and host (band-gap) properties remains challenging in hybrid methods. The deep character of anion-site acceptors in ZnO has important consequences for the concept of codoping, as we show that nominally charge-compensated impurity pairs such as (N-O-Ga-Zn) or (C-O-Ti-Zn) have positively charged states in the gap that act as hole traps.

TI Reconstruction and evaporation at graphene nanoribbon edges
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID DYNAMICS
AB The reconstruction and evaporation at graphene nanoribbon (GNR) edges are investigated by tight-binding molecular-dynamics simulations and ab initio calculations. It is observed that reconstruction through the formation of pentagon-heptagon pairs can take place quickly along the zigzag edge and it is energetically favorable. At very high temperatures, the armchair edge is found to change into a zigzag edge structure, which further accelerates the evaporation of carbon atoms and leads to the formation of carbon linear chains. The evaporation of carbon atoms from both the zigzag and armchair edges is preceded by the formation of heptagon rings, which serve as a gateway for carbon atoms to escape. In the simulation for a GNR armchair-zigzag-armchair junction, carbon atoms are evaporated row by row from the outermost row of the zigzag edge while the armchair edge remains nearly intact. These results can be applied to nanoelectronic devices fabrication through the temperature-controlled edge structure of GNR.

AB We study the pseudospin valve effect in bilayer graphene nanoribbons using the recursive Green's function method. The pseudospin degree of freedom is associated with the electron density in two layers and can be controlled by external gate electrodes. We find that the conductance of nanoribbons shows different behavior compared to infinite systems due to the appearance of edge states and quantum confinement. Remarkably, a large on-off ratio can be achieved in nanoribbons with zigzag edges, even when the Fermi energy lies in the bulk energy gap. The influence of possible edge vacancies and interface conditions is also discussed.

CDGA2SE4; BETA-GA2SE3
AB A strong nonlinear pressure dependence of the optical absorption edge has been measured in defect chalcopyrites CdGa(2)Se(4) and HgGa(2)Se(4). The behavior is due to the nonlinear pressure dependence of the direct band-gap energy in these compounds as confirmed by ab initio calculations. Our calculations for CdGa(2)Se(4), HgGa(2)Se(4) and monoclinic beta-Ga(2)Se(3) provide evidence that the nonlinear pressure dependence of the direct band-gap energy is a general feature of adamantine ordered-vacancy compounds irrespective of their composition and crystalline structure. The nonlinear behavior is due to a conduction band anticrossing at the Gamma point of the Brillouin zone caused by the presence of ordered vacancies in the unit cell of these tetrahedrally coordinated compounds.

AB Using Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire approach we calculated the equilibrium distributions of electric field, polarization, and space charge in the ferroelectric-semiconductor heterostructures containing proper or incipient ferroelectric thin films. The role of the polarization gradient and intrinsic surface energy, interface dipoles, and free charges on polarization dynamics are specifically explored. The intrinsic field effects, which originated at the ferroelectric-semiconductor interface, lead to the surface band bending and result into the formation of depletion space-charge layer near the semiconductor surface. During the local polarization reversal (caused by the electric field of the nanosized tip of the scanning probe microscope) the thickness and charge of the interface layer drastically changes, in particular, the sign of the screening carriers is determined by the polarization direction. Obtained analytical solutions could be extended to analyze polarization-mediated electronic transport.

ID COMPOUND CUGEO3; SYSTEM CUGEO3; PHASE-DIAGRAM
AB The ground state of the spin-Peierls system TiOCl was probed using synchrotron x-ray diffraction on a single-crystal sample at T = 6 K. We tracked the evolution of the structural superlattice peaks associated with the dimerized ground state as a function of pressure. The dimerization along the b axis is rapidly suppressed in the vicinity of a first-order structural phase transition at P-C = 13.1(1) GPa. The high-pressure phase is characterized by an incommensurate charge-density wave perpendicular to the original spin-chain direction. These results show that the electronic ground state undergoes a fundamental change in symmetry, indicating a significant change in the principal interactions.

TI Wave function in the presence of constraints: Persistent current in
coupled rings
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
AB Using a method introduced earlier, we compute the wave function in the presence of constraints. As an explicit example we compute the wave function for the many electrons problem in coupled metallic rings in the presence of external magnetic fluxes. For equal fluxes and an even number of electrons the constraints enforce a wave function with a vanishing total momentum and a large persistent current and magnetization in contrast to the odd number of electrons where at finite temperatures the current is suppressed. We propose that the even-odd property can be verified by measuring the magnetization as a function of a varying gate voltage coupled to the rings. By reversing the flux in one of the rings the current and magnetization vanish in both rings; this can be potentially used as a nonlocal control device.

AB The thermopower of PbTe as a function of temperature and doping level is reported based on Boltzmann transport calculations using the first principles relativistic electronic structure as obtained with the Engel-Vosko generalized gradient approximation. The results are discussed in relation to experimental data. For p-type material there is an enhancement at high-doping levels due to the onset of an increased density of states starting similar to 0.2 eV below the valence band edge. This leads to agreement between the calculated thermopower and recent results on PbTe with heavy Tl doping.

ID ION-IMPLANTATION; SEMICONDUCTORS; MN; SUBSTITUTION; (GA,MN)AS; GAAS
AB We demonstrate a direct connection between the magnetic easy axis in Mn-doped GaP and epitaxial strain by a combined ferromagnetic resonance, x-ray diffraction and superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry study. The magnetic easy axis of Ga1-xMnxP is gradually rotated from the in-plane [0 (1) over bar1] direction toward the film normal [100] through alloying with isovalent N which changes the strain state of the film from compressive to tensile. For a nearly lattice-matched film the strain-related component to the out-of-plane uniaxial anisotropy field is close to zero. Both in-plane and out-of-plane magnetization reversal processes are explored by a simple model that considers the combination of coherent spin rotation and noncoherent spin switching. We use our results to estimate domain-wall sizes and energetics, which have yet to be directly measured in this materials system. The band structure and electrical properties of Ga1-xMnxP imply that holes localized within a Mn-derived impurity band are capable of mediating the same anisotropic exchange interactions as the itinerant carriers in the canonical Ga1-xMnxAs system.

Transforming magnetic to electric field
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English

ID CARBON NANOTUBES; 2-DIMENSIONAL ELECTRONS; SUPERLATTICES; GAS
AB We show that the low-energy electronic structure of graphene under a one-dimensional inhomogeneous magnetic field can be mapped into that of graphene under an electric field or vice versa. As a direct application of this transformation, we find that the carrier velocity in graphene is isotropically reduced under magnetic fields periodic along one direction with zero average flux. This counterintuitive renormalization has its origin in the pseudospin nature of graphene electronic states and is robust against disorder. In magnetic graphene superlattices with a finite average flux, the Landau level bandwidth at high fields exhibits an unconventional behavior of decreasing with increasing strength of the average magnetic field due to the linear energy dispersion of graphene. As another application of our transformation relation, we show that the transmission probabilities of an electron through a magnetic barrier in graphene can directly be obtained from those through an electrostatic barrier or vice versa.

AB Linear-polarized soft-x-ray absorption (XAS) and inelastic neutron scattering (INS) experiments have been performed on CeMIn5 with M=Rh, Ir, and Co to determine the crystal-field scheme and characteristic Kondo temperatures T* for the hybridization between 4f and conduction electrons. The ground-state wave functions are determined from the polarization-dependent soft-XAS data at the cerium M-4,M-5 edge and the crystal-field splittings from INS. The characteristic temperature T* has been determined from the line widths of the neutron scattering data. We find that the quasielastic linewidths of the superconducting compounds CeCoIn5 and CeIrIn5 are comparable with the low-energy crystal-field splitting.

AB Topological defects in graphene, dislocations and grain boundaries, are still not well understood despite the considerable number of experimental observations. We introduce a general approach for constructing dislocations in graphene characterized by arbitrary Burgers vectors as well as grain boundaries, covering the whole range of possible misorientation angles. By using ab initio calculations we investigate thermodynamic and electronic properties of these topological defects, finding energetically favorable symmetric large-angle grain boundaries, strong tendency toward out-of-plane deformation in the small-angle regimes, and pronounced effects on the electronic structure. The present results show that dislocations and grain boundaries are important intrinsic defects in graphene which may be used for engineering graphene-based nanomaterials and functional devices.

AB We derive from first principles, using nonequilibrium field theory, the quantum Boltzmann equations that describe the dynamics of flavor oscillations, collisions, and a time-dependent mass matrix in the early universe. Working to leading nontrivial order in ratios of relevant time scales, we study in detail a toy model for weak-scale baryogenesis: two scalar species that mix through a slowly varying time-dependent and CP-violating mass matrix, and interact with a thermal bath. This model clearly illustrates how the CP asymmetry arises through coherent flavor oscillations in a nontrivial background. We solve the Boltzmann equations numerically for the density matrices, investigating the impact of collisions in various regimes.

ID MICROWAVE BACKGROUND ANISOTROPIES; PROBE OBSERVATIONS;
CROSS-CORRELATION; GALAXY SURVEY; SOUND SPEED; CONSTRAINTS; GROWTH
AB The nature of dark energy can be probed not only through its equation of state but also through its microphysics, characterized by the sound speed of perturbations to the dark energy density and pressure. As the sound speed drops below the speed of light, dark energy inhomogeneities increase, affecting both cosmic microwave background and matter power spectra. We show that current data can put no significant constraints on the value of the sound speed when dark energy is purely a recent phenomenon, but can begin to show more interesting results for early dark energy models. For example, the best fit model for current data has a slight preference for dynamics [w(a)not equal -1], degrees of freedom distinct from quintessence (c(s) not equal 1), and early presence of dark energy [Omega(de)(a << 1) not equal 0]. Future data may open a new window on dark energy by measuring its spatial as well as time variation.

AB Dark matter in the form of weakly interacting massive particles is predicted to become gravitationally captured and accumulate in stars. While the subsequent annihilations of such particles lead to the injection of energy into stellar cores, elastically scattering dark matter particles do not generally yield enough energy to observably impact stellar phenomenology. Dark matter particles that scatter inelastically with nuclei (such that they reconcile the annual modulation reported by DAMA with the null results of CDMS and other experiments), however, can be captured by and annihilate in compact stars at a much higher rate. As a result, old white dwarf stars residing in high dark matter density environments can be prevented from cooling below several thousand degrees Kelvin. Observations of old, cool white dwarfs in dwarf spheroidal galaxies, or in the inner kiloparsec of the Milky Way, can thus potentially provide a valuable test of the inelastic dark matter hypothesis.

the LANL archive. While our numerical results are in good agreement, we
have chosen to focus our study on inelastic dark matter captured by
white dwarfs in dwarf spheroidal galaxies and in the inner Milky Way,
rather than in globular clusters, which we have argued are unlikely to
contain high densities of dark matter. The authors are supported by the

AB The large-scale structure of the Universe, as traced by the distribution of galaxies, is now being revealed by large-volume cosmological surveys. The structure is characterized by galaxies distributed along filaments, the filaments connecting in turn to form a percolating network. Our objective here is to quantitatively specify the underlying mechanisms that drive the formation of the cosmic network: By combining percolation-based analyses with N-body simulations of gravitational structure formation, we elucidate how the network has its origin in the properties of the initial density field (nature) and how its contrast is then amplified by the nonlinear mapping induced by the gravitational instability (nurture).

TI Emergent gravity at a Lifshitz point from a Bose liquid on the lattice
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D
LA English
DT Article
AB We propose a model with quantum bosons on the fcc lattice, which has a stable algebraic Bose liquid phase at low energy. We show that this phase is described by emergent quantum gravity at the Gaussian z = 3 Lifshitz fixed point in 3 + 1 dimensions. The stability of this algebraic Bose liquid phase is guaranteed by the gauge symmetry of gravitons and self-duality of the low-energy field theory. By tuning one parameter in the lattice boson model we can drive a phase transition between the z = 3 Lifshitz gravity and another algebraic Bose liquid phase, described by gravity at the z = 2 Lifshitz point.

AB The opportunistic pathogen Pseudoinonas aeruginosa may cause both acute and chronic-persistent infections in predisposed individuals. Acute infections require the presence of a functional type III secretion system (T3SS), whereas chronic P. aeruginosa infections are characterized by the formation of drug-resistant biofilms. The T3SS and biofilm formation are reciprocally regulated by the signaling kinases LadS, RetS, and GacS. RetS downregulates biofilm formation and upregulates expression of the T3SS through a unique mechanism. RetS forms a heterodimeric complex with GacS and thus prevents GacS autophosphorylation and downstream signaling. The signals that regulate RetS are not known but RetS possesses a distinctive periplasmic sensor domain that is believed to serve as receptor for the regulatory ligand. We have determined the crystal structure of the RetS sensory domain at 2.0 angstrom resolution. The structure closely resembles those of carbohydrate binding modules of other proteins, suggesting that the elusive ligands are likely carbohydrate moieties. In addition to the conserved beta-sandwich structure, the sensory domain features two alpha helices which create a unique surface topology. Protein protein crosslinking and fluorescence energy transfer experiments also revealed that the sensory domain dimerizes with a dissociation constant of K(d) = 580 +/- 50 nM, a result with interesting implications for our understanding of the underlying signaling mechanism.

AB An electrochemical sensor based on the electrocatalytic activity of functionalized graphene for sensitive detection of paracetamol is presented. The electrochemical behaviors of paracetamol on graphene-modified glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) were investigated by cyclic voltammetry and square-wave voltammetry. The results showed that the graphene-modified electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity to paracetamol. A quasi-reversible redox process of paracetamol at the modified electrode was obtained, and the over-potential of paracetamol decreased significantly compared with that at the bare GCE. Such electrocatalytic behavior of graphene is attributed to its unique physical and chemical properties, e.g., subtle electronic characteristics, attractive pi-pi interaction, and strong adsorptive capability. This electrochemical sensor shows an excellent performance for detecting paracetamol with a detection limit of 3.2 x 10(-8) M, a reproducibility of 5.2% relative standard deviation, and a satisfied recovery from 96.4% to 103.3%. The sensor shows great promise for simple, sensitive, and quantitative detection and screening of paracetamol. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The antioxidant profiles of various espresso coffees were established using EIPLC with UV-absorbance detection and two rapid, simultaneous, on-line chemical assays that enabled the relative reactivity of sample components to be screened. The assays were based on (i) the colour change associated with reduction of the 2,2'-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical (DPPH(center dot)): and (ii) the emission of light (chemiluminescence) upon reaction with acidic potassium permanganate. Results from the two approaches were similar and reflected the complex array of antioxidant species present in the samples. However, some differences in selectivity were observed. Chromatograms generated with the chemiluminescence assay contained more peaks, which was ascribed to the greater sensitivity of the reagent towards minor, readily oxidisable sample components. The three coffee samples produced closely related profiles, signifying their fundamentally similar chemical compositions and origin. Nevertheless, the overall intensity and complexity of the samples in both UV absorption and antioxidant assay chromatograms were aligned with the manufacturers description of flavour intensity and character.

AB The synthesis, crystal structure and melting behaviour of the new family of ternary rare earth RMgPb compounds is reported in this work All the rare earth elements (Including Y and Sc) form the equiatomic phase 1:1:1 with Mg and Pb, similar to the recently investigated RMgSn compounds series. Unlike RMgSn, all the RMgPb phases (the lighter, as well as the heavier, trivalent lanthanides) crystallize with the same crystal structure the tetragonal CeScSi-type (an ordered derivative of the La(2)Sb-type structure, t/12, space group I4/mmm) Both the observed unit cell volume (V(obs)) and the mean atomic volume (V(obs)/n, where n is the number of atoms in a unit cell) decrease linearly from LaMgPb [a = 4 598(1)angstrom, c = 16 512(2)angstrom] to LuMgPb [a = 4.356(1)angstrom, c = 15.783(2)angstrom] confirming the lanthanide contraction in the RMgPb series On the other hand, the volume of formation (Delta V %) becomes more negative by a non-linear trend on going from La to Lu A high temperature polymorph phase, allot hombic TiNiSi-type. has been found for both YbMgSn and YbMgPb Further work concerning the existence of the phase "ScMgSn" has been also performed The relationships between the structural properties and formation thermodynamics of both the RMgSn and the RMgPb series of compounds have been examined in the present work
All the RMgPb phases form congruently (including YMgPb and ScMgPb) and their melting temperatures decrease non-linearly from LaMgPb to ScMgPb YbMgSn and YbMgPb also form congruently with anomalously high melting points A particular and interesting anomaly has been observed for SmMgPb and Sm containing pseudo-ternary compounds [Nd(1-x)Sm(x)MgPb(x = 0.4, 0 6, 0.8) and Sm(1-y)Gd(y)MgPb (y = 0 6, 0 4, 0 2)]. their melting temperature are lower than the ones expected from the trend established by the other RMgPb phases by as much as 70 degrees C This anomalous behaviour led to an examination of the melting points of selected Sm-bearing materials, including Sm metal The low melting points are thought to be due to a decrease in the valence of trivalent Sm phases at 25 degrees C as the materials are heated and thus a lower bonding strength (c) 2010 Elsevier B V All rights reserved

We report a new hydrogen storage generation system, LiAlH4 + NH3. The two components are stored in separate containers when there is no demand for hydrogen, while the two components mix, hydrogen can be generated, up to 13 wt % H-2 at ambient temperature, on-demand The H-2 formation is exothermic with a high rate, suggesting that this is unlikely to be a reversible hydrogen storage material More investigation is needed to improve or to maximize the degree of conversion (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

AB The rheology of nanoparticle suspensions for nanoparticles of various shapes with equal mass is studied using molecular dynamics simulations. The equilibrium structure and the response to imposed shear are analyzed for suspensions of spheres, rods, plates, and jacks in an explicit solvent for both charged and uncharged nanoparticles. For the volume fraction studied, phi(vf)=0.075, the uncharged systems are all in their isotropic phase, and the viscosity is only weakly dependent on shape for spheres, rods, and plate, whereas for the jacks the viscosity is an order of magnitude larger than for the other three shapes. The introduction of charge increases the viscosity for all four nanoparticle shapes, with the increase being the largest for rods and plates. The presence of a repulsive charge between the particles decreases the amount of stress reduction that can be achieved by particle reorientation. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.

REPRESSION; CHECKPOINT; PROTEINS
AB The tumor suppressor p53 and the DNA repair factor 53BP1 (p53 binding protein 1) regulate gene transcription and responses to genotoxic stresses. Upon DNA damage, p53 undergoes dimethylation at Lys382 (p53K382me2), and this posttranslational modification is recognized by 53BP1. The molecular mechanism of nonhistone methyl-lysine mark recognition remains unknown. Here we report a 1. 6-angstrom-resolution crystal structure of the tandem Tudor domain of human 53BP1 bound to a p53K382me2 peptide. In the complex, dimethylated Lys382 is restrained by a set of hydrophobic and cation-pi interactions in a cage formed by four aromatic residues and an aspartate of 53BP1. The signature HKKme2 motif of p53, which defines specificity, is identified through a combination of NMR resonance perturbations, mutagenesis, measurements of binding affinities and docking simulations, and analysis of the crystal structures of 53BP1 bound to p53 peptides containing other dimethyl-lysine marks, p53K370me2 (p53 dimethylated at Lys370) and p53K372me2 (p53 dimethylated at Lys372). Binding of the 53BP1 Tudor domain to p53K382me2 may facilitate p53 accumulation at DNA damage sites and promote DNA repair as suggested by chromatin immunoprecipitation and DNA repair assays. Together, our data detail the molecular mechanism of p53-53BP1 association and provide the basis for deciphering the role of this interaction in the regulation of p53 and 53BP1 functions.

AB The bacterial metalloregulator MerR is the index case of an eponymous family of regulatory proteins, which controls the transcription of a set of genes (the mer operon) conferring mercury resistance in many bacteria. Homodimeric MerR represses transcription in the absence of mercury and activates transcription upon Hg(II) binding. Here, the average structures of the apo and Hg(II)-bound forms of MerR in aqueous solution are examined using small-angle X-ray scattering, indicating an extended conformation of the metal-bound protein and revealing the existence of a novel compact conformation in the absence of Hg(II). Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations are performed to characterize the conformational dynamics of the Hg (II)-bound form. In both small-angle X-ray scattering and MD, the average torsional angle between DNA-binding domains is similar to 65 degrees. Furthermore, in MD, interdomain motions on a timescale of similar to 10 ns involving large-amplitude (similar to 20 angstrom) domain opening-and-closing, coupled to similar to 40 degrees variations of interdomain torsional angle, are revealed. This correlated domain motion may propagate allosteric changes from the metal-binding site to the DNA-binding site while maintaining DNA contacts required to initiate DNA underwinding.

AB Glutaredoxins (Grxs) are a ubiquitous family of proteins that reduce disulfide bonds in substrate proteins using electrons from reduced glutathione (GSH). The yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae Grx6 is a monothiol Grx that is localized in the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi compartments. Grx6 consists of three segments, a putative signal peptide (M1-I36), an N-terminal domain (K37-T110), and a C-terminal Grx domain (K111-N231, designated Grx6C). Compared to the classic dithiol glutaredoxin Grx1, Grx6 has a lower glutathione disulfide reductase activity but a higher glutathione S-transferase activity. In addition, similar to human Grx2, Grx6 binds GSH via an iron-sulfur cluster in vitro. The N-terminal domain is essential for noncovalent dimerization, but not required for either of the above activities. The crystal structure of Grx6C at 1.5 angstrom resolution revealed a novel two-strand antiparallel beta-sheet opposite the GSH binding groove. This extra beta-sheet might also exist in yeast Grx7 and in a group of putative Grxs in lower organisms, suggesting that Grx6 might represent the first member of a novel Grx subfamily.

AB Partial ion yield spectroscopy was used to study fragmentation processes in cyanogen after C 1s and N 1s photoexcitation. The interpretation of the core excitation spectrum mostly follows the literature, but the high resolution has in some cases allowed a more detailed assignment. Using the fact that in Rydberg states there is an intensity increase as the fragmentation process becomes more extensive compared to valence orbitals, we have been able to distinguish resonances with valence and Rydberg character. Furthermore, we have been able to assign features in the ionization continuum as arising from double excitations or shape resonances, by observation of the suppression of anion yield at shape resonances.

AB The self-healing diffusion Monte Carlo algorithm (SHDMC) is shown to be an accurate and robust method for calculating the ground state of atoms and molecules. By direct comparison with accurate configuration interaction results for the oxygen atom, we show that SHDMC converges systematically towards the ground-state wave function. We present results for the challenging N(2) molecule, where the binding energies obtained via both energy minimization and SHDMC are near chemical accuracy (1 kcal/mol). Moreover, we demonstrate that SHDMC is robust enough to find the nodal surface for systems at least as large as C(20) starting from random coefficients. SHDMC is a linear-scaling method, in the degrees of freedom of the nodes, that systematically reduces the fermion sign problem.

AB Neutrinos in a core-collapse supernova undergo coherent flavor transformations in their own background. We explore this phenomenon during the cooling stage of the explosion. Our three-flavor calculations reveal qualitatively new effects compared to a two-flavor analysis. These effects are especially clearly seen for the inverted mass hierarchy: we find a different pattern of spectral "swaps'' in the neutrino spectrum and a novel ''mixed'' spectrum for the antineutrinos. A brief discussion of the relevant physics is presented, including the instability of the two-flavor evolution trajectory, the three-flavor pattern of spectral "swaps,'' and partial nonadiabaticity of the evolution.

AB Biaxial strain is known to induce ferroelectricity in thin films of nominally nonferroelectric materials such as SrTiO3. By a direct comparison of the strained and strain-free SrTiO3 films using dielectric, ferroelectric, Raman, nonlinear optical and nanoscale piezoelectric property measurements, we conclude that all SrTiO3 films and bulk crystals are relaxor ferroelectrics, and the role of strain is to stabilize longerrange correlation of preexisting nanopolar regions, likely originating from minute amounts of unintentional Sr deficiency in nominally stoichiometric samples. These findings highlight the sensitive role of stoichiometry when exploring strain and epitaxy-induced electronic phenomena in oxide films, heterostructures, and interfaces.

TI Superexchange Coupling and Slow Magnetic Relaxation in a Transuranium
Polymetallic Complex
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

DT Article
ID SINGLE-MOLECULE MAGNETS; ELECTRONIC-PROPERTIES; DIRAC-FOCK; IONS;
CLUSTER; LEVEL
AB {Np(VI)O(2)Cl(2)g}{(NpO2Cl)-O-V(thf)(3)}(2) is the first studied example of a polymetallic transuranic complex displaying both slow relaxation of the magnetization and effective superexchange interactions between 5f centers. The coupling constant for Np-V-Np-VI pairs is 10.8 K, more than 1 order of magnitude larger than the common values found for rare-earth ions in similar environments. The dynamic magnetic behavior displays slow relaxation of magnetization of molecular origin with an energy barrier of 140 K, which is nearly twice the size of the highest barrier found in polymetallic clusters of the d block. Our observations also suggest that future actinide-based molecular magnets will have very different behavior to lanthanide-based clusters.

TI Test of Lepton Universality in Y(1S) Decays at BABAR
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID PHYSICS
AB The ratio R-tau mu(Y(1S)) = Gamma Y(1S)->tau(+)tau(-)/Gamma(+)(-)(Y(1S)->mu)(mu) is measured using a sample of (121.8 +/- 1.2) x 10(6)Y(3S) events recorded by the BABAR detector. This measurement is intended as a test of lepton universality and as a search for a possible light pseudoscalar Higgs boson. In the standard model (SM) this ratio is expected to be close to 1. Any significant deviations would violate lepton universality and could be introduced by the coupling to a light pseudoscalar Higgs boson. The analysis studies the decays Y(3S) -> Y(1S)pi(+)pi(-), Y(1S) -> l(+)l(-), where l = mu, tau. The result, R-tau mu (Y(1S)) = 1.005 +/- 0.013(stat) +/- 0.022(syst), shows no deviation from the expected SM value, while improving the precision with respect to previous measurements.

AB Calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) is the major volume phase in the matrix of Portland cement concrete. Total x-ray scattering measurements with synchrotron x rays on synthetic CSH(I) shows nanocrystalline ordering with a particle diameter of 3.5(5) nm, similar to a size- broadened 1.1 nm tobermorite crystal structure. The CSH component in hydrated tricalcium silicate is found to be similar to CSH(I). Only a slight bend and additional disorder within the CaO sheets is required to explain its nanocrystalline structure.

AB The study of the Earth's radiation entropy flux at the top of the atmosphere is reviewed with an emphasis on its estimation methods. Existing expressions for calculating radiation entropy flux scattered in different disciplines are surveyed, and their applicabilities are examined. It is found that the Earth's net radiation entropy flux estimated from these various expressions can differ substantially, more than the typical value of the entropy production rate associated with the atmospheric latent heat process. Comparison analysis shows that the commonly used expression of radiation entropy flux as the ratio of radiation energy flux to absolute temperature underestimates the Earth's radiation entropy flux by >30%. Theoretical analysis reveals that the large difference in the Earth's reflected solar radiation entropy flux among the different expressions arises mainly from the difference of the Earth's reflection properties (i.e., Lambertian or specular) assumed in these expressions. For the Earth system with typical shortwave albedo of 0.30 and longwave emissivity between 0.50 and 1.00, the Earth's net radiation entropy flux derived from the most accurate Planck's spectral expression ranges from 1.272 to 1.284 W m(-2) K(-1), amounting to the overall Earth's entropy production rate from 6.481 x 10(14) to 6.547 x 10(14) WK(-1).

TI The Effect of Spin-Orbit Splitting on the Association Kinetics of

AB The effect of the geometry dependence of spin-orbit splitting on transition state theory (TST) predictions for radical-radical recombination rate coefficients is examined. The effects are illustrated with direct ab initio variable-reaction-coordinate (VRC)-TST calculations for the reactions of two types or hydrocarbon radicals (R = CH(3) and CH(2)CHCH(2)) with three halogen atoms (X = F, Cl, and Br). These halogen atoms exhibit a range of spin-orbit interaction strengths, while their interactions with the two hydrocarbon radicals exhibit a range of attractiveness. The transition state dividing surfaces for these barrierless reactions occur over a range of R-X fragment separations (similar to 3-7 angstrom) where the magnitude of the spin-orbit splitting is strongly geometry dependent. Perturbative models for incorporating the energetic effect of spin-orbit splitting into barrierless kinetics are presented and tested. Simply neglecting the variation in the spin-orbit splitting is demonstrated to contribute an error of less than 15% to the predicted rate coefficients for all but the CH(2)CHCH(2) + Br reaction, where its neglect increases the rate by up to a factor of 2. For the CH(2)CHCH(2) + Br reaction, the effect of spin-orbit splitting is not perturbative and instead qualitatively changes the long-range interaction potential and association dynamics. The present theoretical predictions are compared with available experimental measurements and previous theoretical work. For the CH(3) + F association reaction, the errors associated with limitations in the basis set and in the active space are studied, and a detailed comparison is made between VRC-TST and rigid rotor-harmonic oscillator variational TST.

AB ReaxFF provides a method to describe bond-breaking and bond-forming events that can be applied to large-scale molecular dynamics simulations. This article describes the development of a ReaxFF potential for cobalt. This potential is transferable to a wide variety of cobalt systems, including various crystal structures, surfaces, clusters, and defects. The potential parameters were obtained from an extensive set of ab initio calculations. We have tested these parameters against additional DFT calculations not included in the fitting data set and found that ReaxFF provides similar or superior agreement with the DFT results compared to accepted embedded atom method descriptions for Co. We validated this potential by performing large-scale molecular dynamics simulations to predict the melting point, diffusion coefficients for the liquid as a function of temperature, and vacancy-mediated diffusion coefficients in the solid as a function of temperature and vacancy concentration. Results are compared with other theoretical methods and experiments where available. Since the ReaxFF method allows straightforward extensions to alloys and heterogeneous materials, including first-row elements, the ReaxFF parameters described here provide a foundation for the simulation of a wide range of Co-containing materials.

AB We present a theoretical study of the stacking properties of poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and its effect on the electronic and transport properties. Our study is based on ab initio density functional calculations including van der Waals interactions and molecular dynamics simulations. Our calculations provide detailed information of the atomic structures and the formation mechanisms of the particular stacking structures. We found the most stable stacking structure produces a relatively small hole effective mass in the stacking direction, which allows large interchain mobility.

TI Precipitation-Induced Voltage-Dependent Ion Current Fluctuations in
Conical Nanopores
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY C
LA English
DT Article
ID NARROW PORES; TRANSPORT
AB Single conically shaped nanopores produce stable ion current fluctuations when in contact with weakly soluble salts, such as calcium hydrogen phosphate (CaHPO(4)) and cobalt hydrogen phosphate (CoHPO(4)). The pore spontaneously switches between high and low conductance states, called open and closed states, respectively. Pore opening and closing are linked to the dynamic formation of the calcium and cobalt precipitates at the small opening of the pore. The probabilities of pore opening and closing are voltage-dependent, and this characteristic of ion current signal is known for biological voltage-gated channels. We show that new types of ion current fluctuations are obtained in conditions at which precipitates of CaHPO(4) and CoHPO(4) can form in the pore at the same time.

AB The electronic structures of graphene nanoflakes (GNEs) exposed to an organo-silane precursor [tetramethylsilane, TMS, Si(CH(3))(4)] were studied using electron field emission (EFE), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray emission spectroscopy (XES), and first-principles calculation. The results of XANES, XPS, and Raman spectroscopy indicate that the silyl radical strong covalent bonds were formed in GNFs, which induced local structural relaxations and enhanced sp(3) hybridization. Comparison of calculated electronic structure, XANES, and XES spectra of Si-treated GNFs suggests that the Si atom substitutes one 3-fold coordinated C atom in a given graphene layer and relaxes outward to form sp(3) bonding with another C atom in the adjacent graphene layer. The EFE measurements show an increase in the tum-on electric field with the increase of the Si content, which suggests an enhancement of the nonmetallic sp(3) bonding.

AB A voltammetric fingerprinting approach has been used to probe the nature of Pt-Nafion three phase interfaces for Pt(hkl) and polycrystalline platinum surfaces. Nature of adsorbing species is identified as the sulfonate anions via CO charge displacement technique. The affinity for the sulfonate anions to adsorb on the electrode surface is investigated. Adsorption strength of the sulfonate anions with the electrode surface is compared with other strongly adsorbing anions such as (hi) sulfates and chlorides. Various factors that influence the adsorption properties of the sulfonate anions are studied. Nature and strength of the anion interaction with various surface geometries is also discussed. A physical model is presented to describe the observed phenomena.

AB We examine the spin-wave (SW) dynamics of Dy/Y multilayers in order to separate the contribution of the Dy-Y interface from that of bulk Dy. The SW frequencies and intensities of bulk Dy are determined analytically. When the Dy layers in a multilayer geometry are decoupled, the SW dispersion relations are discontinuous with discrete excitations. With a Ruderman-Kittel-Kasuya-Yosida (RKKY) interaction coupling through the Y spacer, the discrete excitations become dispersive and the main SW branches split due to the multilayer geometry. Regardless of the strength of the intermediate RKKY interaction, the dispersion signature of the bulk remains.

ID METAL
AB We have investigated structural and magnetic phase transitions under high pressures in a quaternary rare-earth transition-metal arsenide oxide NdCoAsO compound that is isostructural to the high temperature superconductor parent phase NdFeAsO. The four-probe electrical resistance measurements carried out in a designer diamond anvil cell show that the ferromagnetic Curie temperature and antiferromagnetic Neel temperature increase with an increase in pressure. High pressure x-ray diffraction studies using a synchrotron source show a structural phase transition from a tetragonal phase to a new crystallographic phase at a pressure of 23 GPa at 300 K. The NdCoAsO sample remained antiferromagnetic and non-superconducting down to 10 K and up to the highest pressure achieved in this experiment, 53 GPa. A P-T phase diagram for NdCoAsO is presented from ambient conditions to P = 53 GPa and T = 10 K.

AB We report a synthesis of colloidal nanostructures combining a magnetic material (FePt) with a narrow-gap semiconductor (PbS and PbSe) in form of core shells or nanodumbbells and explore their optical, magnetic, electrical, and magnetotransport properties. The arrays of "magnet-in-the-semiconductor nanostructures show semiconductor-type transport properties with magnetoresistance typical for magnetic tunnel junctions, thus combining the advantages of both functional components. We observed gate-controlled charge transport through the arrays of FePt PbS and FePt PbSe core shell nanostructures with an electron mobility of 0.01 cm(2)/(V s) and 0.08 cm(2)/(V s), respectively, combined with ferro- and superparamagnetic behavior and large tunneling magnetoresistance. This work shows that multicomponent colloidal nanostructures can be used as the building blocks for design of multifunctional materials for electronics and optoelectronics.

AB Rational synthesis of Pt-Au(n) nanoparticles (NPs) has been achieved by overgrowing Au on Pt with n, the number of Pt-Au heterojunctions in each particle, controlled from 1 to 4, and the corresponding NPs in pear-, peanut-, or clover-like morphology. Monte Carlo simulation reveals that the morphology control can be correlated to a thermodynamic equilibrium of the Au coherence energy, the overall particle surface energy, and the heterogeneous Pt-Au interfacial energy in the composite system, which is manipulated by the seeding particle size and solvent polarity. The developed synthetic strategy together with the provided fundamental understanding of heterogeneous nucleation and heterostructure growth could have great potential toward the rational synthesis of composite nanomaterials with morphology control for advanced catalytic and other functional applications.

AB A new one-dimensional radiative equilibrium model is built to analytically evaluate the vertical profile of the Earth's atmospheric radiation entropy flux under the assumption that atmospheric longwave radiation emission behaves as a greybody and shortwave radiation as a diluted blackbody. Results show that both the atmospheric shortwave and net longwave radiation entropy fluxes increase with altitude, and the latter is about one order in magnitude greater than the former. The vertical profile of the atmospheric net radiation entropy flux follows approximately that of the atmospheric net longwave radiation entropy flux. Sensitivity study further reveals that a 'darker' atmosphere with a larger overall atmospheric longwave optical depth exhibits a smaller net radiation entropy flux at all altitudes, suggesting an intrinsic connection between the atmospheric net radiation entropy flux and the overall atmospheric longwave optical depth. These results indicate that the overall strength of the atmospheric irreversible processes at all altitudes as determined by the corresponding atmospheric net entropy flux is closely related to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

AB Background: Nonrandom distribution of rearrangements is a common feature of eukaryotic chromosomes that is not well understood in terms of genome organization and evolution. In the major African malaria vector Anopheles gambiae, polymorphic inversions are highly nonuniformly distributed among five chromosomal arms and are associated with epidemiologically important adaptations. However, it is not clear whether the genomic content of the chromosomal arms is associated with inversion polymorphism and fixation rates.
Methodology/Principal Findings: To better understand the evolutionary dynamics of chromosomal inversions, we created a physical map for an Asian malaria mosquito, Anopheles stephensi, and compared it with the genome of An. gambiae. We also developed and deployed novel Bayesian statistical models to analyze genome landscapes in individual chromosomal arms An. gambiae. Here, we demonstrate that, despite the paucity of inversion polymorphisms on the X chromosome, this chromosome has the fastest rate of inversion fixation and the highest density of transposable elements, simple DNA repeats, and GC content. The highly polymorphic and rapidly evolving autosomal 2R arm had overrepresentation of genes involved in cellular response to stress supporting the role of natural selection in maintaining adaptive polymorphic inversions. In addition, the 2R arm had the highest density of regions involved in segmental duplications that clustered in the breakpoint-rich zone of the arm. In contrast, the slower evolving 2L, 3R, and 3L, arms were enriched with matrix-attachment regions that potentially contribute to chromosome stability in the cell nucleus.
Conclusions/Significance: These results highlight fundamental differences in evolutionary dynamics of the sex chromosome and autosomes and revealed the strong association between characteristics of the genome landscape and rates of chromosomal evolution. We conclude that a unique combination of various classes of genes and repetitive DNA in each arm, rather than a single type of repetitive element, is likely responsible for arm-specific rates of rearrangements.

AB A basic (AP) sites are the most common lesions arising in genomic DNA. Repair of this potentially mutagenic DNA damage is initiated by the major apurinic/apyrimidinic endonuclease Ape 1, which specifically recognizes and cleaves the DNA backbone 5' to the AP site. Ape I is one of the major proteins in the base excision repair pathway (BER), and deletions in any of the BER proteins result in embryonic lethality. In this study, we employed fluorescence spectroscopy and in vitro mass spectrometric protein footprinting to investigate Ape1 conformational changes during various nucleoprotein interactions along its reaction pathway. Differences in intrinsic fluorescence emission spectra were observed during Ape1 protein's processing of the substrate, indicating possible conformational changes of the nucleoprotein complexes. To determine the protein domains that are involved in the putative conformational change, full-length Ape1 protein was probed with a lysine-reactive reagent (NHS-biotin) in the context of free protein and DNA-bound complexes. Protection patterns between pre- and postincision complexes revealed an increased susceptibility of lysine residues localized on the Ape1 surface that contacts the 3' end of the incised duplex (downstream of the incision site). We propose that the decreased protection results from Ape1 having a more relaxed grip on this section of the incised duplex to facilitate the handoff to the downstream BER enzyme. Protection of lysines (residues 24-35) in the N-terminal region was also observed in the intact AP-DNA-bound complex. These residues are part of the Ref1 domain which functions to regulate the activity of several transcription factors but to date has not been ascribed a DNA binding function. The reactivity of these Ref1 lysines was restored in the postincision complex. The differential protection patterns of lysines in the flexible N-terminal domain suggest a novel Ref1 conformational change concomitant with DNA binding and catalysis. It is likely that Ape1 employs this structural switch to mediate redox and nuclease activities. The ability of the Ape1-AP-DNA complex to recruit other BER proteins was also investigated by probing ternary complexes comprised of Ape1, DNA polymerase beta (Pol beta), and different BER DNA intermediates (abasic or gapped DNA). Our results suggest that Pol beta approaches the Ape I DNA complex downstream of the incision site, displaces Ape1 DNA binding contacts (K227, K228, and K276), and in the process makes minimal interactions with lysine residues in the Ref1 domain.

AB Turbostratically disordered tungsten diselenide (WSe2) thin films with as few as two c-axis-oriented (basal plane) structural units were synthesized from modulated elemental reactants. By varying the number of elemental W-Se bilayers deposited, the thickness could be controllably varied from two to eighty such structural units. The sample roughness decreases with increasing annealing time and temperature as the crystalline WSe2 basal plane units self-assemble from the amorphous precursors. Low-angle X-ray diffraction data show that the thickness of the WSe2 films is highly uniform after annealing, with estimated roughness of less than 0.2 nm, and highly oriented, with the c axis of the structural units oriented within 0.1 degrees of the substrate normal as determined from rocking curves of the specular 00L-type diffraction peaks. Pole figures of hk0-type reflections indicate that c-axis-oriented basal plane structural units are randomly oriented within the a-b plane. The widths of diffraction peaks of type hk0, 00L, and hkl (h, k not equal 0; l not equal 0) indicate coherence lengths of about 6-7 nm in the ab plane, the full thickness of the film along the e axis, and 1-2 nm in mixed-index directions. Scanning transmission electron microscopy imaging corroborated the X-ray scattering results, providing direct evidence of strong c-axis texture, rotational disorder between adjacent basal plane structural units, and an intraplanar grain size of several nanometers. The combination of intraplanar crystallinity and interplanar rotational disorder explains the significant anisotropy of the thermal conductivity, which is 20-30 times higher in the a-b plane than along the e axis. Electrical measurements within the a-b plane indicate that the films exhibit n-type semiconducting behavior.

AB Background: Transcription initiation is controlled by cis-regulatory modules. Although these modules are usually made of clusters of short transcription factor binding sites, a small minority of such clusters in the genome have cis-regulatory activity. This paradox is currently unsolved.
Results: To identify what discriminates active from inactive clusters, we focused our attention on short topologically unconstrained clusters of two ETS and two GATA binding sites, similar to the early neural enhancer of Ciona intestinalis Otx. We first computationally identified 55 such clusters, conserved between the two Ciona genomes. In vivo assay of the activity of 19 hits identified three novel early neural enhancers, all located next to genes coexpressed with Otx. Optimization of ETS and GATA binding sites was not always sufficient to confer activity to inactive clusters. Rather, a dinucleotide sequence code associated to nucleosome depletion showed a robust correlation with enhancer potential. Identification of a large collection of Ciona regulatory regions revealed that predicted nucleosome depletion constitutes a general signature of Ciona enhancers, which is conserved between orthologous loci in the two Ciona genomes and which partitions conserved noncoding sequences into a major nucleosome-bound fraction and a minor nucleosome-free fraction with higher cis-regulatory potential. We also found this signature in a large fraction of short Drosophila cis-regulatory modules.
Conclusion: This study indicates that a sequence-based dinucleotide signature, previously associated with nucleosome depletion and independent of transcription factor binding sites, contributes to the definition of a local cis-regulatory potential in two metazoa, Ciona intestinalis and Drosophila melanogaster.

TI Galaxy Zoo: dust in spiral galaxies star

AB We investigate the effect of dust on spiral galaxies by measuring the inclination dependence of optical colours for 24 276 well-resolved Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies visually classified via the Galaxy Zoo project. We find clear trends of reddening with inclination which imply a total extinction from face-on to edge-on of 0.7, 0.6, 0.5 and 0.4 mag for the ugri passbands (estimating 0.3 mag of extinction in z band). We split the sample into 'bulgy' (early-type) and 'discy' (late-type) spirals using the SDSS fracdeV (or f(DeV)) parameter and show that the average face-on colour of 'bulgy' spirals is redder than the average edge-on colour of 'discy' spirals. This shows that the observed optical colour of a spiral galaxy is determined almost equally by the spiral type (via the bulge-disc ratio and stellar populations), and reddening due to dust. We find that both luminosity and spiral type affect the total amount of extinction, with discy spirals at M(r) similar to -21.5 mag having the most reddening - more than twice as much as both the lowest luminosity and most massive, bulge-dominated spirals. An increase in dust content is well known for more luminous galaxies, but the decrease of the trend for the most luminous has not been observed before and may be related to their lower levels of recent star formation. We compare our results with the latest dust attenuation models of Tuffs et al. We find that the model reproduces the observed trends reasonably well but overpredicts the amount of u-band attenuation in edge-on galaxies. This could be an inadequacy in the Milky Way extinction law (when applied to external galaxies), but more likely indicates the need for a wider range of dust-star geometries. We end by discussing the effects of dust on large galaxy surveys and emphasize that these effects will become important as we push to higher precision measurements of galaxy properties and their clustering.

TI Galaxy Zoo: a correlation between the coherence of galaxy spin chirality

ENVIRONMENT; ALIGNMENTS; DIRECTION
AB We report on the finding of a correlation between the past star formation activity of galaxies and the degree to which the rotation axes of neighbouring galaxies are aligned. This is obtained by cross-correlating star formation histories, derived using the multiple optimized parameter estimation and data compression (MOPED) algorithm, and the spatial coherence of spin direction (chirality), as determined by the Galaxy Zoo project, for a sample of Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) galaxies. Our findings suggest that spiral galaxies, which formed the majority of their stars early (z > 2), tend to display coherent rotation over scales of similar to 10 Mpc h-1. The correlation is weaker for galaxies with significant recent star formation. We find evidence for this alignment at more than the 5 Sigma level, but no correlation with other galaxy stellar properties. This finding can be explained within the context of hierarchical tidal-torque theory if the SDSS galaxies harbouring the majority of the old stellar population were formed in the past, in the same filament and at about the same time. Galaxies with significant recent star formation instead are in the field, thus influenced by the general tidal field that will align them in random directions, or have had a recent merger that would promote star formation but change the spin direction.

DE Micromegas; Gas detectors; Muon system; ATLAS experiment
AB With the luminosity upgrade of the LHC machine (SLHC, Super-LHC), the Muon system of the ATLAS experiment at CERN will also need a detector upgrade in the highest rapidity region. MAMMA, Muon ATLAS Micromegas Activity, is an ongoing R&D activity with the aim to develop large detectors based on the bulk-Micromegas technology for use in the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer. Micromegas is a good potential candidate for the construction of large muon chambers that combine trigger and tracking capability and can sustain high particle rates expected at the SLHC. A medium size Micromegas prototype, in scale 1:10 of the final chambers, has been built and evaluated in the laboratory and in beam tests at CERN. Results from the analysis of test-beam data are presented. The results indicate that large size Micromegas is a viable candidate for ATLAS Muon upgrade (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

DE Calorimeter; Trigger architecture; Common electronics; FPGA algorithm;
Peak finding; Trigger data
AB The trigger of the ALICE electromagnetic calorimeters is implemented in 2 hierarchically connected layers of electronics. In the lower layer, level-0 algorithms search shower energy above threshold in locally confined Trigger Region Units (TRU). The top layer is implemented as a single, global trigger unit that receives the trigger data from all TRUs as input to the level-1 algorithm. This architecture was first developed for the PHOS high PT photon trigger before it was adopted by EMCal also for the jet trigger. TRU units digitize up to 112 analogue input signals from the Front End Electronics (FEE) and concentrate their digital stream in a single FPGA. A charge and time summing algorithm is combined with a peakfinder that suppresses spurious noise and is precise to single LHC bunches. With a peak-to-peak noise level of 150 MeV the linear dynamic range above threshold spans from MIP energies at 215 up to 50 GeV. Local level-0 decisions take less than 600 ns after LHC collisions, upon which all TRUs transfer their level-0 trigger data to the upstream global trigger module which searches within the remaining level-1 latency for high p(T) gamma showers (PHOS) and/or for Jet cone areas (EMCaL).

ID PHYSICS PERFORMANCE REPORT
AB The ALICE calorimeters PHOS and EMCal are based on Avalanche Photo-Diode (APD) photosensors with Charge Sensitive Preamplifiers (CSP) for readout of the scintillating elements. The amplified signals are read out via 32-channel shaper/digitizer front-end electronics (FEE) with 14-bit effective dynamic range. The electronics is based on second order shapers with dual gain for each channel, getting digitized by ALTRO chips. Each APD channel is equipped with an individual 10-bit APD gain adjustment and 2 x 2 channel clusters generate a 100 ns shaped analog sums output (Fast OR) for the associated Trigger Region Units (TRU). The Fast OR signals are generated by first order shapers with a dynamic range of 12-bit given by the ADC in the TRU cards. Board controller firmware in the FPGA provides local monitoring and configuration of all parameters via the ALICE DCS system. The signal to noise ratio for MIP at 215 MeV is similar to 7 per channel with a noise level of 30 MeV at room temperature for a dynamic range of 80 GeV for PHOS, and the fast-OR RMS noise level is about 75 MeV for a dynamic range of 250 GeV for EMCal.

AB We present an upgrade plan for the CMS HCAL detector. The HCAL upgrade is required for the increased luminosity (3 x 10(34)) of SLHC Phase I, which is targeted for 2014. A key aspect of the HCAL upgrade is to add longitudinal segmentation to improve background rejection, energy resolution, and electron isolation at L1 trigger. The increased segmentation is achieved by replacing the hybrid photodiodes (HPDs) with silicon PMTs (SIPMs). We plan to instrument each fiber of the calorimeter with an SIPM (103,000 total). We will then electrically sum outputs from selected SIPMs to form the longitudinal readout segments. In addition to having more longitudinal information, the upgrade plans include a new custom ADC with matched sensitivity and timing information. The increased data volume requires higher speed transmitters. The additional power dissipation for the readout electronics requires better thermal design, since much of the on-detector infrastructure (front-end electronics crates, cooling pipes, optical fiber plant, etc.) will remain the same. We will report the preliminary designs for these upgraded systems, along with performance requirements and initial design studies. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Fermilab began exploring the technologies for vertically integrated circuits (also commonly known as 3D circuits) in 2006. These technologies include through silicon vias (TSV), circuit thinning, and bonding techniques to replace conventional bump bonds. Since then, the interest within the High Energy Physics community has grown considerably. This paper will present an overview of the activities at Fermilab over the last 3 years which have helped spark this interest. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The Forward Silicon Vertex Tracker (FVTX) upgrade for the PHENIX detector at RHIC will extend the vertex capability of the central PHENIX Silicon Vertex Tracker (VTX). The FVTX is designed with adequate spatial resolution to separate decay muons coming from the relatively long-lived heavy quark mesons (Charm and Beauty), from prompt particles and the longer-lived pion and kaon decays that originate at the primary collision vertex. These heavy quarks can be used to probe the high-density medium that is formed in Au + Au collisions at RHIC. The FVTX is designed as two endcaps. Each endcap comprises four silicon disks covering opening angles from 10 degrees to 35 degrees to match the existing muon arm acceptance. Each disk consists of p-on-n, silicon wedges, with ac-coupled mini-strips on 75 mu m radial pitch and projective length in the phi direction that increases with radius. A custom front-end chip, the FPHX, has been designed for the FVTX. The chip combines fast trigger capability with data push architecture in a low-power design. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Modeling and simulations have been performed for the charge injected diodes (CID) for the application in SLHC. MIP-induced current and charges have been calculated for segmented detectors with various radiation fluences, up to the highest SLHC fluence of 1 x 1016 n(eq)/cm(2). Although the main advantage of CID detectors is their virtual full depletion at any radiation fluence at a modest bias voltage (< 600 V), the simulation of CID and fitting to the existing data have shown that the CID operation mode also reduces the free carrier trapping, resulting in a much higher charge collection at the SLHC fluence than that in a standard Si detector. The reduction in free carrier trapping by almost one order of magnitude is due to the fact that the CID mode also pre-fills the traps, making them neutral and not active in trapping. It has been found that, electron traps can be pre-filled by injection of electrons from the n(+) contact, and hole traps can be pre-filled by injection of holes from the p(+) contact. The CID mode of detector operation can be achieved by a modestly low temperature of around -40 degrees C, achievable by the proposed CO(2) cooling for detector upgrades in SLHC. High charge collection comparable to the 3D electrode Si detectors makes the CID Si detector a valuable alternative for SLHC detectors for its much easier fabrication process. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

Its 722,000 channels spread over 7 m(2) of silicon micro-strip sensors allow precision tracking and vertexing. The CDF silicon detector played a critical role in the discovery of B(s) mixing and is used extensively for the current Higgs Boson searches. Over the last 7 years, the detector efficiency has remained stable at 95% after the Run II commissioning period. The infrastructure (cooling, power supplies) problems dealt with are discussed.

AB Functional MRI has become an important tool of researchers and clinicians who seek to understand patterns of neuronal activation that accompany sensory and cognitive processes. However, the interpretation of fMRI images rests on assumptions about the relationship between neuronal firing and hemodynamic response that are not firmly grounded in rigorous theory or experimental evidence. Further, the blood-oxygen-level-dependent effect, which correlates an MRI observable to neuronal firing, evolves over a period that is 2 orders of magnitude longer than the underlying processes that are thought to cause it. Here, we instead demonstrate experiments to directly image oscillating currents by MRI. The approach rests on a resonant interaction between an applied rf field and an oscillating magnetic field in the sample and, as such, permits quantitative, frequency-selective measurements of current density without spatial or temporal cancellation. We apply this method in a current loop phantom, mapping its magnetic field and achieving a detection sensitivity near the threshold required for the detection of neuronal currents. Because the contrast mechanism is under spectroscopic control, we are able to demonstrate how ramped and phase-modulated spin-lock radiation can enhance the sensitivity and robustness of the experiment. We further demonstrate the combination of these methods with remote detection, a technique in which the encoding and detection of an MRI experiment are separated by sample flow or translation. We illustrate that remotely detected MRI permits the measurement of currents in small volumes of flowing water with high sensitivity and spatial resolution.

AB A structural and functional model of bacterial nitric oxide reductase (NOR) has been designed by introducing two glutamates (Glu) and three histidines (His) in sperm whale myoglobin. X-ray structural data indicate that the three His and one Glu (V68E) residues bind iron, mimicking the putative Fe(B) site in NOR, while the second Glu (I107E) interacts with a water molecule and forms a hydrogen bonding network in the designed protein. Unlike the first Glu (V68E), which lowered the heme reduction potential by similar to 110 mV, the second Glu has little effect on the heme potential, suggesting that the negatively charged Glu has a different role in redoxtuning. More importantly, introducing the second Glu resulted in a similar to 100% increase in NOR activity, suggesting the importance of a hydrogen bonding network in facilitating proton delivery during NOR reactivity. In addition, EPR and X-ray structural studies indicate that the designed protein binds iron, copper, or zinc in the FeB site, each with different effects on the structures and NOR activities, suggesting that both redox activity and an intermediate five-coordinate heme-NO species are important for high NOR activity. The designed protein offers an excellent model for NOR and demonstrates the power of using designed proteins as a simpler and more well-defined system to address important chemical and biological issues.

AB Metagenomics has provided access to genomes of as yet uncultivated microorganisms in natural environments, yet there are gaps in our knowledge-particularly for Archaea-that occur at relatively low abundance and in extreme environments. Ultrasmall cells (<500 nm in diameter) from lineages without cultivated representatives that branch near the crenarchaeal/euryarchaeal divide have been detected in a variety of acidic ecosystems. We reconstructed composite, near-complete similar to 1-Mb genomes for three lineages, referred to as ARMAN (archaeal Richmond Mine acidophilic nanoorganisms), from environmental samples and a biofilm filtrate. Genes of two lineages are among the smallest yet described, enabling a 10% higher coding density than found genomes of the same size, and there are noncontiguous genes. No biological function could be inferred for up to 45% of genes and no more than 63% of the predicted proteins could be assigned to a revised set of archaeal clusters of orthologous groups. Some core metabolic genes are more common in Crenarchaeota than Euryarchaeota, up to 21% of genes have the highest sequence identity to bacterial genes, and 12 belong to clusters of orthologous groups that were previously exclusive to bacteria. A small subset of 3D cryo-electron tomographic reconstructions clearly show penetration of the ARMAN cell wall and cytoplasmic membranes by protuberances extended from cells of the archaeal order Thermoplasmatales. Interspecies interactions, the presence of a unique internal tubular organelle [Comolli, et al. (2009) ISME J 3: 159-167], and many genes previously only affiliated with Crenarchaea or Bacteria indicate extensive unique physiology in organisms that branched close to the time that Cren- and Euryarchaeotal lineages diverged.

AB Ammonia-oxidizing archaea are ubiquitous in marine and terrestrial environments and now thought to be significant contributors to carbon and nitrogen cycling. The isolation of Candidatus "Nitrosopumilus maritimus" strain SCM1 provided the opportunity for linking its chemolithotrophic physiology with a genomic inventory of the globally distributed archaea. Here we report the 1,645,259-bp closed genome of strain SCM1, revealing highly copper-dependent systems for ammonia oxidation and electron transport that are distinctly different from known ammonia-oxidizing bacteria. Consistent with in situ isotopic studies of marine archaea, the genome sequence indicates N. maritimus grows autotrophically using a variant of the 3-hydroxypropionate/4-hydroxybutryrate pathway for carbon assimilation, while maintaining limited capacity for assimilation of organic carbon. This unique instance of archaeal biosynthesis of the osmoprotectant ectoine and an unprecedented enrichment of multicopper oxidases, thioredoxin-like proteins, and transcriptional regulators points to an organism responsive to environmental cues and adapted to handling reactive copper and nitrogen species that likely derive from its distinctive biochemistry. The conservation of N. maritimus gene content and organization within marine metagenomes indicates that the unique physiology of these specialized oligophiles may play a significant role in the biogeochemical cycles of carbon and nitrogen.

AB Background: In vivo CD8(+) cell depletions in pathogenic SIV infections identified a key role for cellular immunity in controlling viral load (VL) and disease progression. However, similar studies gave discordant results in chronically-infected SMs, leading some authors to propose that in natural hosts, SIV replication is independent of cellular immunity. To assess the role of cellular immune responses in the control of SIV replication in natural hosts, we investigated the impact of CD8(+) cell depletion during acute SIV infection in AGMs.
Results: Nine AGMs were infected with SIVagm. sab and were followed up to day 225 p.i. Four were intravenously infused with the cM-T807 antibody on days 0 (50 mg/kg), 6, and 13 (10 mg/kg, respectively) post infection (p.i.). CD8(+) cells were depleted for up to 28 days p.i. in peripheral blood and LNs in all treated AGMs. Partial CD8(+) T cell depletion occurred in the intestine. SIVagm VLs peaked at similar levels in both groups (10(7)-10(8) RNA copies/ml). However, while VLs were controlled in undepleted AGMs, reaching set-point levels (10(4)-10(5) RNA copies/ml) by day 28 p.i., high VLs (>10(6) RNA copies/ml) were maintained by day 21 p.i. in CD8-depleted AGMs. By day 42 p.i., VLs were comparable between the two groups. The levels of immune activation and proliferation remained elevated up to day 72 p. i. in CD8-depleted AGMs and returned to preinfection levels in controls by day 28 p.i. None of the CD8-depleted animals progressed to AIDS.
Conclusion: CD8(+) cells are responsible for a partial control of postacute viral replication in SIVagm. sab-infected AGMs. In contrast to macaques, the SIVagm-infected AGMs are able to control viral replication after recovery of the CD8(+) T cells and avoid disease progression.

TI Comparing the use of mid-infrared versus far-infrared lasers for
mitigating damage growth on fused silica
SO APPLIED OPTICS
LA English
DT Article
ID 351 NM; TEMPERATURE; OPTICS; GLASS; RAMAN
AB Laser-induced growth of optical damage can limit component lifetime and, therefore, increase operating costs of large-aperture fusion-class laser systems. While far-infrared (IR) lasers have been used previously to treat laser damage on fused silica optics and render it benign, little is known about the effectiveness of less-absorbing mid-IR lasers for this purpose. In this study, we quantitatively compare the effectiveness and efficiency of mid-IR (4.6 mu m) versus far-IR (10.6 mu m) lasers in mitigating damage growth on fused silica surfaces. The nonlinear volumetric heating due to mid-IR laser absorption is analyzed by solving the heat equation numerically, taking into account the temperature-dependent absorption coefficient alpha(T) at lambda 4.6 mu m, while far-IR laser heating is well described by a linear analytic approximation to the laser-driven temperature rise. In both cases, the predicted results agree well with surface temperature measurements based on IR radiometry, as well as subsurface fictive temperature measurements based on confocal Raman microscopy. Damage mitigation efficiency is assessed using a figure of merit (FOM) relating the crack healing depth to laser power required, under minimally ablative conditions. Based on our FOM, we show that, for cracks up to at least 500 mu m in depth, mitigation with a 4.6 mu m mid-IR laser is more efficient than mitigation with a 10.6 mu m far-IR laser. This conclusion is corroborated by direct application of each laser system to the mitigation of pulsed laser-induced damage possessing fractures up to 225 mu m in depth.

AB We report the fabrication and characterization of woodpile photonic crystals with up to 12 layers through titania nanoparticle infiltration of a polymer template made by soft lithography. Because the complicated alignment in the conventional layer-by-layer fabrication associated with diamondlike symmetry is replaced by a simple 90 degrees alignment, the fabricated photonic crystal has semicrystalline phase. However, the crystal performs similarly to a perfectly aligned crystal for the light propagation integrated from the surface normal to 30 degrees at the main photonic band gap.

AB We report heterojunctions made of vertically aligned ZnO-ZnTe nanocones synthesized using a combination of thermal vapor deposition and pulsed-laser deposition. ZnO nanocones and nanorods were controlled by utilizing the growth rate difference between central and boundary sites of precursor domains. The p-n heterojunctions were subsequently formed by growing ZnTe as shells on the nanocone surface. Structural and electric characteristics indicate that nanocones are more feasible than nanorods for forming heterojunction. Furthermore, theoretical modeling demonstrates that the nanocone-based junction exhibits an electrostatic potential profile that is much more effective for carrier transport than the electrostatic potential for the nanorod-based junction.

AB We present a study of the vertical magnetic field of the Milky Way toward the Galactic poles, determined from observations of Faraday rotation toward more than 1000 polarized extragalactic radio sources at Galactic latitudes vertical bar b vertical bar >= 77 degrees, using the Westerbork Radio Synthesis Telescope and the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We find median rotation measures (RMs) of 0.0 +/- 0.5 rad m(-2) and +6.3 +/- 0.7 rad m(-2) toward the north and south Galactic poles, respectively, demonstrating that there is no coherent vertical magnetic field in the Milky Way at the Sun's position. If this is a global property of the Milky Way's magnetism, then the lack of symmetry across the disk rules out pure dipole or quadrupole geometries for the Galactic magnetic field. The angular fluctuations in RM seen in our data show no preferred scale within the range approximate to 0 degrees.1 to approximate to 25 degrees. The observed standard deviation in RM of similar to 9 rad m(-2) then implies an upper limit of similar to 1 mu G on the strength of the random magnetic field in the warm ionized medium at high Galactic latitudes.

AB We present the spectrum of compact object masses: neutron stars and black holes (BHs) that originate from single stars in different environments. In particular, we calculate the dependence of maximum BH mass on metallicity and on some specific wind mass loss rates (e.g., Hurley et al. and Vink et al.). Our calculations show that the highest mass BHs observed in the Galaxy M(bh) similar to 15 M(circle dot) in the high metallicity environment (Z = Z(circle dot) = 0.02) can be explained with stellar models and the wind mass loss rates adopted here. To reach this result we had to set luminous blue variable mass loss rates at the level of similar to 10(-4) M(circle dot) yr(-1) and to employ metallicity-dependent Wolf-Rayet winds. With such winds, calibrated on Galactic BH mass measurements, the maximum BH mass obtained for moderate metallicity (Z = 0.3 Z(circle dot) = 0.006) is M(bh,max) = 30 M(circle dot). This is a rather striking finding as the mass of the most massive known stellar BH is M(bh) = 23-34 M(circle dot) and, in fact, it is located in a small star-forming galaxy with moderate metallicity. We find that in the very low (globular cluster-like) metallicity environment the maximum BH mass can be as high as M(bh,max) = 80 M(circle dot) (Z = 0.01 Z(circle dot) = 0.0002). It is interesting to note that X-ray luminosity from Eddington-limited accretion onto an 80 M(circle dot) BH is of the order of similar to 10(40) erg s(-1) and is comparable to luminosities of some known ultra-luminous X-ray sources. We emphasize that our results were obtained for single stars only and that binary interactions may alter these maximum BH masses (e.g., accretion from a close companion). This is strictly a proof-of-principle study which demonstrates that stellar models can naturally explain even the most massive known stellar BHs.

TI CONSTRAINING PERTURBATIVE EARLY DARK ENERGY WITH CURRENT OBSERVATIONS

AB In this work, we study a class of early dark energy (EDE) models, in which, unlike in standard dark energy models, a substantial amount of dark energy exists in the matter-dominated era. We self-consistently include dark energy perturbations, and constrain these models using current observations. We consider EDE models in which the dark energy equation of state is at least w(m) greater than or similar to -0.1 at early times, which could lead to an EDE density of up to Omega(DE)(z(CMB)) = 0.03 Omega(m)(z(CMB)). Our analysis shows that marginalizing over the non-DE parameters such as Omega(m), H-0, and n(s), current CMB observations alone can constrain the scale factor of transition from EDE to late-time dark energy to a(t) greater than or similar to 0.44 and width of transition to Delta(t) less than or similar to 0.37. The equation of state at present is somewhat weakly constrained to w(0) less than or similar to -0.6, if we allow H-0 < 60 km s(-1) Mpc(-1). Taken together with other observations, such as SNe, Hubble Space Telescope, and Sloan Digital Sky Survey luminous red galaxies, w(0) is constrained much more tightly to w(0) less than or similar to -0.9, while redshift of transition and width of transition are also tightly constrained to a(t) less than or similar to 0.19 and Delta(t) less than or similar to 0.21. The evolution of the equation of state for EDE models is thus tightly constrained to Lambda CDM-like behavior at low redshifts. Incorrectly assuming dark energy perturbations to be negligible leads to different constraints on the equation of state parameters-w(0) less than or similar to -0.8, a(t) less than or similar to 0.33, and Delta(t) less than or similar to 0.31, thus highlighting the necessity of self-consistently including dark energy perturbations in the analysis. If we allow the spatial curvature to be a free parameter, then the constraints are relaxed to w(0) less than or similar to -0.77, a(t) less than or similar to 0.35, and Delta(t) less than or similar to 0.35 with -0.014 < Omega(kappa) < 0.031 for CMB + other observations. For perturbed EDE models, the 2 sigma lower limit on sigma(8) (sigma(8) >= 0.59) is much lower than that in Lambda CDM (sigma(8) >= 0.72), thus raising the interesting possibility of discriminating EDE from Lambda CDM using future observations such as halo mass functions or the Sunyaev-Zeldovich power spectrum.

AB A direct numerical simulation (DNS) of turbulent flow in a three-dimensional diffuser at Re = 10 000 (based on bulk velocity and inflow-duct height) was performed with a massively parallel high-order spectral element method running on up to 32 768 processors. Accurate inflow condition is ensured through unsteady trip forcing and a long development section. Mean flow results are in good agreement with experimental data by Cherry et al. (Intl J. Heat Fluid Flow, vol. 29, 2008, pp. 803-811), in particular the separated region starting from one corner and gradually spreading to the top expanding diffuser wall. It is found that the corner vortices induced by the secondary flow in the duct persist into the diffuser, where they give rise to a dominant low-speed streak, due to a similar mechanism as the 'lift-up effect' in transitional shear flows, thus governing the separation behaviour. Well-resolved simulations of complex turbulent flows are thus possible even at realistic Reynolds numbers, providing accurate and detailed information about the flow physics. The available Reynolds stress budgets provide valuable references for future development of turbulence models.

AB We present the formation of a singular (diabolical) point in k-space from a periodic metal-dielectric waveguide array. The singularity originates from the balance between alternating normal and anomalous coupling. We numerically demonstrate a strong diffraction anomaly (conical-like diffraction) near the singular point. We also show the evolution of the diffraction pattern with band deformation. The resultant peculiar propagation dynamics of surface plasmon polaritons could provide a new toolset for manipulating light on the nano-scale. (C)2010 Optical Society of America

AB We report on the material response during the cooling phase in bulk fused silica following localized energy deposition via laser-induced breakdown. We use a time-resolved microscope system to acquire images of the region of energy deposition at delay times covering the entire timeline of events. In addition, this system is configured to perform pump-and-probe damage testing measurements to investigate the evolution of the transient absorption of the modified material. The main features of a damage site are established at similar to 30 ns after the pump pulse, i.e. cracks reach their final size within this time frame. The results reveal that the cracks and melted core exhibit a transient absorption up until about 300 ns and 200 mu s delay times, respectively, and suggest that the melted region returns to solid phase at similar to 70 ms delay.

AB Differential cross sections of the reaction gamma d -> K+Sigma(-)(p) have been measured with the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab using incident photons with energies between 1.1 and 3.6 GeV. This is the first complete set of strangeness photoproduction data on the neutron covering a broad angular range. At energies close to threshold and up to E-gamma similar to 1.8 GeV. the shape of the angular distribution is suggestive of the presence of s-channel production mechanisms. For E-gamma > 1.8 GeV, a clear forward peak appears and becomes more prominent as the photon energy increases, suggesting contributions from t-channel production mechanisms. These data can be used to constrain future analysis of this reaction. (c) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI Gauged B-x(i)L origin of R parity and its implications
SO PHYSICS LETTERS B
LA English
DT Article
DE Supersymmetry; Proton decay; R parity
ID BARYON; CONSERVATION; SYMMETRIES; NUMBER
AB Gauged B - L is a popular candidate for the origin of the conservation of R parity, i.e. R = (-)(3B+L+2j), in supersymmetry, but it fails to forbid the effective dimension-five terms arising from the superfield combinations Q Q Q L, u(c)u(c)d(c)e(c), and u(c)d(c)d(c)N(c), which allow the proton to decay. Changing it to B - x(i)L, where x(e) + x(mu) + x(tau) = 3 (with x(i) not equal 1) for the three families, would forbid these terms while still serving as a gauge origin of R parity. We show how this is achieved in two minimal models with realistic neutrino mass matrices, and discuss their phenomenological implications. (c) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The synthesis and structural characterization of new tantalum(V) compounds containing a single hydrazido(1) ligand are reported. Hydrazinolysis of TaCl(NMe2)(4) using trimethylsilyl(dimethyl)hydrazine affords the compound TaCl(NMe2)(3)[N(TMS)NMe2] in essentially quantitative yield. Metathetical replacement of the chloride ligand in TaCl(NMe2)(3)]N(TMS)NMe2] by LiNMe2 gives the all-nitrogen coordinated compound Ta(NMe2)(4)[N(TMS)NMe2]. VT H-1 NMR studies support the existence of low-energy pathways involving rotation about the Ta-N bonds of the ancillary amido and hydrazido ligands in both hydrazido-substituted compounds. X-ray crystallographic analyses confirm the octahedral disposition about the tantalum metal in TaCl(NMe2)(3)[N(TMS)NMe2] and Ta(NMe2)(4)[N(TMS)NMe2] and the presence of an mu(2)-hydrazido(1) ligand. Preliminary data using Ta(NMe2)(4)[N(TMS)NMe2] as an ALD precursor for the preparation of tantalum nitride and tantalum oxide thin films are presented. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The first study into the alcohol solvation of lanthanum halide [LaX(3)] derivatives as a means to lower the processing temperature for the production of the LaBr(3) scintillators was undertaken using methanol (MeOH). Initially the de-hydration of {[La(mu-Br)(H(2)O)(7)](Br)(2)}(2) (1) was investigated through the simple room temperature dissolution of 1 in MeOH. The mixed solvate monomeric [La(H(2)O)(7)(MeOH)(2)](Br)(3) (2) compound was isolated where the La metal center retains its original 9-coordination through the binding of two additional MeOH solvents but necessitates the transfer of the innersphere Br to the outersphere. In an attempt to in situ dry the reaction mixture of 1 in MeOH over CaH(2), crystals of [Ca(MeOH)(6)](Br)(2) (3) were isolated. Compound 1 dissolved in MeOH at reflux temperatures led to the isolation of an unusual arrangement identified as the salt derivative {[LaBr(2.75)center dot 5.25(MeOH)(+0.25) [LaBr(3.25)center dot 4.75(MeOH)](-0.25)} (4). The fully substituted species was ultimately isolated through the dissolution of dried LaBr3 in MeOH forming the 8-coordinated [LaBr(3)(MeOH)(5)] (5) complex. It was determined that the concentration of the crystallization solution directed the structure isolated (4 concentrated; 5 dilute) The other LaX3 derivatives were isolated as [(MeOH)(4)(Cl)(2)La(mu-Cl)](2) (6) and [La(MeOH)(9)](1)(3)center dot MeOH (7). Beryllium Dome XRD analysis indicated that the bulk material for 5 appear to have multiple solvated species, 6 is consistent with the single crystal, and 7 was too broad to elucidate structural aspects. Multinuclear NMR ((139)La) indicated that these compounds do not retain their structure in MeOD. TGA/DTA data revealed that the de-solvation temperatures of the MeOH derivatives 4-6 were slightly higher in comparison to their hydrated counterparts. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Background: Zymomonas mobilis produces near theoretical yields of ethanol and recombinant strains are candidate industrial microorganisms. To date, few studies have examined its responses to various stresses at the gene level. Hfq is a conserved bacterial member of the Sm-like family of RNA-binding proteins, coordinating a broad array of responses including multiple stress responses. In a previous study, we observed Z. mobilis ZM4 gene ZMO0347 showed higher expression under anaerobic, stationary phase compared to that of aerobic, stationary conditions.
Results: We generated a Z. mobilis hfq insertion mutant AcRIM0347 in an acetate tolerant strain (AcR) background and investigated its role in model lignocellulosic pretreatment inhibitors including acetate, vanillin, furfural and hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF). Saccharomyces cerevisiae Lsm protein (Hfq homologue) mutants and Lsm protein overexpression strains were also assayed for their inhibitor phenotypes. Our results indicated that all the pretreatment inhibitors tested in this study had a detrimental effect on both Z. mobilis and S. cerevisiae, and vanillin had the most inhibitory effect followed by furfural and then HMF for both Z. mobilis and S. cerevisiae. AcRIM0347 was more sensitive than the parental strain to the inhibitors and had an increased lag phase duration and/or slower growth depending upon the conditions. The hfq mutation in AcRIM0347 was complemented partially by trans-acting hfq gene expression. We also assayed growth phenotypes for S. cerevisiae Lsm protein mutant and overexpression phenotypes. Lsm1, 6, and 7 mutants showed reduced tolerance to acetate and other pretreatment inhibitors. S. cerevisiae Lsm protein overexpression strains showed increased acetate and HMF resistance as compared to the wild-type, while the overexpression strains showed greater inhibition under vanillin stress conditions.
Conclusions: We have shown the utility of the pKNOCK suicide plasmid for mutant construction in Z. mobilis, and constructed a Gateway compatible expression plasmid for use in Z. mobilis for the first time. We have also used genetics to show Z. mobilis Hfq and S. cerevisiae Lsm proteins play important roles in resisting multiple, important industrially relevant inhibitors. The conserved nature of this global regulator offers the potential to apply insights from these fundamental studies for further industrial strain development.

AB Background: Dunaliella salina Teodoresco, a unicellular, halophilic green alga belonging to the Chlorophyceae, is among the most industrially important microalgae. This is because D. salina can produce massive amounts of beta-carotene, which can be collected for commercial purposes, and because of its potential as a feedstock for biofuels production. Although the biochemistry and physiology of D. salina have been studied in great detail, virtually nothing is known about the genomes it carries, especially those within its mitochondrion and plastid. This study presents the complete mitochondrial and plastid genome sequences of D. salina and compares them with those of the model green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and Volvox carteri.
Results: The D. salina organelle genomes are large, circular-mapping molecules with similar to 60% noncoding DNA, placing them among the most inflated organelle DNAs sampled from the Chlorophyta. In fact, the D. salina plastid genome, at 269 kb, is the largest complete plastid DNA (ptDNA) sequence currently deposited in GenBank, and both the mitochondrial and plastid genomes have unprecedentedly high intron densities for organelle DNA: similar to 1.5 and similar to 0.4 introns per gene, respectively. Moreover, what appear to be the relics of genes, introns, and intronic open reading frames are found scattered throughout the intergenic ptDNA regions - a trait without parallel in other characterized organelle genomes and one that gives insight into the mechanisms and modes of expansion of the D. salina ptDNA.
Conclusions: These findings confirm the notion that chlamydomonadalean algae have some of the most extreme organelle genomes of all eukaryotes. They also suggest that the events giving rise to the expanded ptDNA architecture of D. salina and other Chlamydomonadales may have occurred early in the evolution of this lineage. Although interesting from a genome evolution standpoint, the D. salina organelle DNA sequences will aid in the development of a viable plastid transformation system for this model alga, and they will complement the forthcoming D. salina nuclear genome sequence, placing D. salina in a group of a select few photosynthetic eukaryotes for which complete genome sequences from all three genetic compartments are available.

equation; Galerkin boundary element method
AB New computational forms are derived for Green's function of an exponentially graded elastic material in three dimensions. By suitably expanding a term in the defining inverse Fourier integral, the displacement tensor can be written as a relatively simple analytic term, plus a single double integral that must be evaluated numerically. The integration is over a fixed finite domain, the integrand involves only elementary functions, and only low-order Gauss quadrature is required for an accurate answer. Moreover, it is expected that this approach will allow a far simpler procedure for obtaining the first and second-order derivatives needed in a boundary integral analysis. The new Green's function expressions have been tested by comparing with results from an earlier algorithm. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB X-ray reflectivity studies demonstrate the condensation of a monovalent ion at the electrified interface between electrolyte solutions of water and 1,2-dichloroethane. Predictions of the ion distributions by standard Poisson-Boltzmann (Gouy-Chapman) theory are inconsistent with these data at higher applied interfacial electric potentials. Calculations from a Poisson-Boltzmann equation that incorporates a nonmonotonic ion-specific potential of mean force are in good agreement with the data. (c) 2010 American Institute of Physics.
