AB Using cross-sectional scanning tunneling microscopy on in situ fractured SrTiO3, one of the most commonly used substrates for the growth of complex oxide thin films and superlattices, atomically smooth terraces have been observed on (001) surfaces. Furthermore, it was discovered that fracturing this material at room temperature results in the formation of stripe patterned domains having characteristic widths (similar to 10 to similar to 20 nm) of alternating surface terminations that extend over a long range. Spatial characterization utilizing spectroscopy techniques revealed a strong contrast in the electronic structure of the two domains. Combining these results with topographic data, we are able to assign both TiO2 and SrO terminations to their respective domains. The results of this experiment reveal that fracturing this material leads to reproducibly flat surfaces that can be characterized at the atomic-scale and suggest that this technique can be utilized for the study of technologically relevant complex oxide interfaces.

AB Predictions of the possible model parameterization and of the values of model characteristics such as R factors are important for macromolecular refinement and validation protocols. One of the key parameters defining these and other values is the resolution of the experimentally measured diffraction data. The higher the resolution, the larger the number of diffraction data N(ref), the larger its ratio to the number N(at) of non-H atoms, the more parameters per atom can be used for modelling and the more precise and detailed a model can be obtained. The ratio N(ref)/N(at) was calculated for models deposited in the Protein Data Bank as a function of the resolution at which the structures were reported. The most frequent values for this distribution depend essentially linearly on resolution when the latter is expressed on a uniform logarithmic scale. This defines simple analytic formulae for the typical Matthews coefficient and for the typically allowed number of parameters per atom for crystals diffracting to a given resolution. This simple dependence makes it possible in many cases to estimate the expected resolution of the experimental data for a crystal with a given Matthews coefficient. When expressed using the same logarithmic scale, the most frequent values for R and R(free) factors and for their difference are also essentially linear across a large resolution range. The minimal R-factor values are practically constant at resolutions better than 3 angstrom, below which they begin to grow sharply. This simple dependence on the resolution allows the prediction of expected R-factor values for unknown structures and may be used to guide model refinement and validation.

AB Many agarolytic bacteria degrade agar polysaccharide into the disaccharide unit neoagarobiose [O-3,6-anhydro-alpha-l-galactopyranosyl-(1 -> 3)-D-galactose] using various beta-agarases. Neoagarobiose hydrolase is an enzyme that acts on the alpha-1,3 linkage in neoagarobiose to yield D-galactose and 3,6-anhydro-L-galactose. This activity is essential in both the metabolism of agar by agarolytic bacteria and the production of fermentable sugars from agar biomass for bioenergy production. Neoagarobiose hydrolase from the marine bacterium Saccharophagus degradans 2-40 was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and crystallized in the monoclinic space group C2, with unit-cell parameters a = 129.83, b = 76.81, c = 90.11 angstrom, beta = 101.86 degrees. The crystals diffracted to 1.98 angstrom resolution and possibly contains two molecules in the asymmetric unit.

AB The DNA-repair enzyme endonuclease IV from the thermophilic bacterium Thermotoga maritima MSB8 (reference sequence NC_000853) has been expressed in Escherichia coli and crystallized for X-ray analysis. T. maritima endonuclease IV is a 287-amino-acid protein with 32% sequence identity to E. coli endonuclease IV. The protein was purified to homogeneity and was crystallized using the sitting-drop vapor-diffusion method. The protein crystallized in space group P6(1), with one biological molecule in the asymmetric unit, corresponding to a Matthews coefficient of 2.39 angstrom(3) Da(-1) and 47% solvent content. The unit-cell parameters of the crystals were a = b = 123.2, c = 35.6 angstrom. Microseeding and further optimization yielded crystals with an X-ray diffraction limit of 2.36 angstrom. A single 70 degrees data set was collected and processed, resulting in an overall R(merge) and a completeness of 9.5% and 99.3%, respectively.

AB An in-depth statistical analysis using electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) is carried out to expose statistical correlations between (10 (1) over bar2) twinning and grain size, crystallographic orientation, grain boundary length, and neighbor misorientation in high-purity polycrystalline zirconium strained to 5% and 10% at 77 K. A strong correlation was found between the active twin variant and crystallographic orientation. The propensity of it grain to twin or not was found to be only weakly dependent on grain area and diameter. Within the population of grains containing twins the number of twins per grain noticeably increases with grain area, and twin thickness is found to be rather insensitive to grain size and orientation. A weak preference for twinning was found for smaller grain boundary misorientation angles. These and the other statistical results reported can improve theoretical treatments for twin nucleation in polycrystal models. The statistical methodology presented has general applicability for all twin types in a wide range of metals. (C) 2009 Acta Materialia Inc. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB A 50/50 vol.% Al/SiC composite was made via melt infiltration of an aluminum alloy into a porous beech wood-derived SiC preform. The honeycomb-like composite microstructure consisted of an interconnected SiC phase surrounding discrete Al "fibers" aligned in the growth direction of the beech wood. High energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction was used to measure the volume averaged lattice strains in both the SiC and Al phases during in situ compressive loading up to an applied stress of -530 MPa. Load transfer from the Al to the SiC was observed, and the Al yielded at an applied stress of above -213 MPa. The elastic behavior of the composite was modeled with both an isostrain rule of mixtures calculation and variational bounds for the effective elastic modulus. Furthermore, calculations of the von Mises effective stress of the SiC and Al phases showed that the wood-derived SiC was a more effective reinforcement than either SiC particle- or whisker-rein forced composites.

AB The Substance Use Risk Profile Scale (SURPS) is based on a model of personality risk for substance abuse in which four personality dimensions (hopelessness, anxiety sensitivity, impulsivity, and sensation seeking) are hypothesized to differentially relate to specific patterns of substance use. The current series of studies is a preliminary exploration of the psychometric properties of the SURPS in two populations (undergraduate and high school students). In study 1, an analysis of the internal structure of two versions of the SURPS shows that the abbreviated version best reflects the 4-factor structure. Concurrent, discriminant, and incremental validity of the SURPS is supported by convergent/divergent relationships between the SURPS subscales and other theoretically relevant personality and drug use criterion measures. In Study 2, the factorial structure of the SURPS is confirmed and evidence is provided for its test-retest reliability and validity with respect to measuring personality vulnerability to reinforcement-specific substance use patterns. In Study 3, the SURPS was administered in a more youthful population to test its sensitivity in identifying younger problematic drinkers. The results from the current series of studies demonstrate support for the reliability and construct validity of the SURPS, and suggest that four personality dimensions may be linked to substance-related behavior through different reinforcement processes. This brief assessment tool may have important implications for clinicians and future research. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Stress-Dependent Elastic Properties of Porous Microcracked Ceramics
SO ADVANCED ENGINEERING MATERIALS
LA English
DT Article
ID MODULI; POROSITY
AB Although ceramics are considered linear elastic materials, we have observed a non-linear pseudo-elastic behavior in porous cellular microcracked ceramics such as beta-eucryptite. This is attributed to the evolution of microstructure in these materials. This behavior is particularly different from that of non-microcracked ceramics such as silicon carbide. It is shown that in microcracked materials two processes, namely stiffening and softening, always compete when a compressive external load is applied. The first regime is attributed to microcrack closure, and the second to microcracks opening, i.e. to a damage introduced by the applied stress. On the other hand rather a continuous damage is observed in the non-microcracked case. A comparison has been done between the microscopic (as measured by neutron diffraction) and the macroscopic stress-strain response. Also, it has been found that at constant load a significant strain relaxation occurs, which has two timescales, possibly driven by the two phenomena quoted above. Indeed, no such relaxation is observed for non-microcracked SiC. Implications of these findings are discussed.

AB The study reports on the formation of regular multi-faceted surface grains during laser surface modification of alumina ceramics. The formation of such faceted morphology of the grains can be strongly correlated with the formation of crystallographic texture. Such evolution of crystallographically-textured, multi-faceted grains opens up new avenues for laser surface modification, where regular three dimensional surface features are formed through solidification processing.

AB A readily available 3,5-bis(perfluorooctyl)benzyl bromide and triethylamine were reacted under mild conditions to give 3,5-bis(n-perfluorooctyl)benzyltriethylammonium bromide (F-TEBA), an analogue of the versatile phase-transfer catalyst, benzyltriethylammonium chloride (TEBA), containing two fluorous ponytails. This perfluoroalkylated quaternary ammonium salt was successfully employed as a catalyst in a variety of reactions run under solid-liquid phase-transfer catalysis (SL-PTC) conditions. Thus, being both hydrophobic and lipo-phobic, F-TEBA could be quickly recovered in quantitative yields, and reused without loss of activity over several reaction cycles.

AB The fluid properties of CO2 injected into geological formations for subsurface storage are strongly affected by the specific formation conditions of pressure, temperature and salinity. Specifically, these conditions affect fluid solubility and density; we investigate their effects on subsurface CO2 storage efficiency.
We compared several common equations-of-state (EOS) and solubility models; their accuracy and applicability are briefly discussed. We also evaluated the effects of gaseous/supercritical CO2 phase density and mutual solubility, including H2O Solubility in CO2. Results suggest that disparities in phase density estimates by different EOS typically do not translate to large disparities in simulation results because of the low solubility of H2O in gaseous/supercritical CO2. However, more experimental studies on the solubility of H2O in CO2 are needed, especially at high pressures and temperatures. Simulation results also suggest that formations at higher temperatures are less efficient for CO2 storage than equivalent formations at lower temperatures. We evaluated aqueous-CO2 solution density at a broad range of pressure and temperature conditions using different equations-of-state. Results indicate that CO2-dissolution in brine at high temperatures (>120 degrees C) may reduce mass density to values lower than the original brine density, nullifying the primary advantage of the dissolution trapping mechanism. This concept, equal density temperature, is proposed here for the first time. In certain scenarios with temperatures greater than the equal density temperature, CO2 can exsolve (escape the aqueous phase) and be subject to buoyancy-driven migration (and potential escape from the formation) associated with separate phase CO2. Simulation results are very sensitive to the density models selected. Predictions of CO2-enriched brine migration using different models can yield contradictory results. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Oral PEG 15-20 protects the intestine against radiation: role of lipid rafts. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 297: G1041-G1052, 2009. First published October 15, 2009; doi: 10.1152/ajpgi.00328.2009.-Intestinal injury following abdominal radiation therapy or accidental exposure remains a significant clinical problem that can result in varying degrees of mucosal destruction such as ulceration, vascular sclerosis, intestinal wall fibrosis, loss of barrier function, and even lethal gut-derived sepsis. We determined the ability of a high-molecular-weight polyethylene glycol-based copolymer, PEG 15-20, to protect the intestine against the early and late effects of radiation in mice and rats and to determine its mechanism of action by examining cultured rat intestinal epithelia. Rats were exposed to fractionated radiation in an established model of intestinal injury, whereby an intestinal segment is surgically placed into the scrotum and radiated daily. Radiation injury score was decreased in a dose-dependent manner in rats gavaged with 0.5 or 2.0 g/kg per day of PEG 15-20 (n = 9-13/group, P < 0.005). Complementary studies were performed in a novel mouse model of abdominal radiation followed by intestinal inoculation with Pseudomonas aeruginosa (P. aeruginosa), a common pathogen that causes lethal gut-derived sepsis following radiation. Mice mortality was decreased by 40% in mice drinking 1% PEG 15-20 (n = 10/group, P < 0.001). Parallel studies were performed in cultured rat intestinal epithelial cells treated with PEG 15-20 before radiation. Results demonstrated that PEG 15-20 prevented radiation-induced intestinal injury in rats, prevented apoptosis and lethal sepsis attributable to P. aeruginosa in mice, and protected cultured intestinal epithelial cells from apoptosis and microbial adherence and possible invasion. PEG 15-20 appeared to exert its protective effect via its binding to lipid rafts by preventing their coalescence, a hallmark feature in intestinal epithelial cells exposed to radiation.

AB This paper describes a new approach, based on self-assembled mixed monolayers, to the design and preparation of extrinsic Raman labels (ERLs). ERLs function as spectroscopic tags for the readout of sandwich-type immunoassays using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). They are created by coating gold nanoparticles with Raman reporter molecules and antibodies specific for the target analyte. Mixed-monolayer ERLs are formed by coveting gold nanoparticles with a mixture of two different thiolates. One thiolate serves to covalently bind antibodies to the particles, imparting biospecificity to the ERLs, while the other thiolate produces a strong Raman signal. Mixed-monolayer ERLs can be prepared in a few relatively simple steps using readily available materials. The SERS intensity of each type of ERL can be tuned to match other ERLs by adjusting the mixed monolayer composition, greatly facilitating the generation of sets of ERLs for multiplexed applications. The work herein not only describes the new pathway for ERL production, but also demonstrates the simultaneous qualitative and quantitative multiplexed detection using a set of four mixed-monolayer ERLs.

AB Francisella tularensis, the causative agent of the zoonotic disease tularemia, has recently gained increased attention due to the emergence of tularemia in geographical areas where the disease has been previously unknown and to the organism's potential as a bioterrorism agent. Although F. tularensis has an extremely broad host range, the bacterial reservoir in nature has not been conclusively identified. In this study, the ability of virulent F. tularensis strains to survive and replicate in the amoeba Acanthamoeba castellanii was explored. We observe that A. castellanii trophozoites rapidly encyst in response to F. tularensis infection and that this rapid encystment phenotype is caused by factor(s) secreted by amoebae and/or F. tularensis into the coculture medium. Further, our results indicate that in contrast to the live vaccine strain LVS, virulent strains of F. tularensis can survive in A. castellanii cysts for at least 3 weeks postinfection and that the induction of rapid amoeba encystment is essential for survival. In addition, our data indicate that pathogenic F. tularensis strains block lysosomal fusion in A. castellanii. Taken together, these data suggest that interactions between F. tularensis strains and amoebae may play a role in the environmental persistence of F. tularensis.

AB A novel thermoplastic programmable preforming process, TP-P4, has been used to manufacture preforms for non-isothermal compression molding. Commingled glass and polypropylene yarns are deposited by robot onto a vacuum screen, followed by a heat-setting operation to stabilize the as-placed yarns for subsequent handling. After an optional additional preconsolidation stage, the preforms are molded by preheating and subsequent press forming in a shear edge tool. The in- and out-of-plane flow capabilities of the material were investigated, and compared to those of 40 (wt)% Glass Mat Thermoplastics (GMTs). Although the TP-P4 material has a fiber fraction of 60 (wt)%, the material could be processed to fill 77 mm deep ribs with a thickness of 3 mm, indicative of complex part production. The pressure requirements for out-of-plane flow were shown to depend on the fiber length and fiber alignment. Segregation phenomena were found to be less severe with TP-P4 than with GMT material.

AB Two-point OH time-series measurements using a high-speed, laser-induced fluorescence system have been performed in a turbulent nonpremixed jet flame to obtain both radial and axial space-time correlations. Turbulent OH structures in such flames are found to undergo convection both axially and radially, but OH convection does not satisfy the 'frozen-turbulence' hypothesis owing to various turbulent interactions and chemical reactions. While axial OH convection occurs at approximately the local mean bulk velocity, radial convection is largely compromised by strong turbulent mixing along the same direction. The hydroxyl integral length scale can be interpreted as the typical dimension of a convective OH structure, which is axially elongated and becomes more isotropic in the post-flame region. The hydroxyl integral time scale can be interpreted as approximately the ratio of an axial integral length scale to a corresponding local mean flow velocity. In general, macroscale fluctuations of OH are dominated by large-scale turbulence, with little contribution from small-scale turbulence and OH chemistry.

AB We report on the proof of principle of a III-nitride/silicon tandem solar cell. Photovoltaic activity is demonstrated in a 0.25 cm(2) dual junction solar cell, made of p- and n-type GaN layers which were grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on a standard n-type Si wafer with an Al doped p-type surface. An open circuit voltage (V(oc)) of 2.4 V was measured under 1 x sun AM1.5G condition with additional UV laser illumination of the GaN junction. Experiments under various illumination conditions were performed to verify that both junctions are active and working in series.

TI Automated modelling of complex refrigeration cycles through topological
structure analysis
SO APPLIED THERMAL ENGINEERING
LA English
DT Article
DE Refrigeration cycles; Topological structure; Computational method
AB We have developed a computational method for analysis of refrigeration cycles. The method is well suited for automated analysis of complex refrigeration systems. The refrigerator is specified through a description of flows representing thermodynamic sates at system locations: components that modify the thermodynamic state of a flow; and controls that specify flow characteristics at selected points in the diagram. A system of equations is then established for the refrigerator, based on mass, energy and momentum balances for each of the system components. Controls specify the values of certain system variables, thereby reducing the number of unknowns. It is found that the system of equations for the refrigerator may contain a number of redundant or duplicate equations, and therefore further equations are necessary for a full characterization. The number of additional equations is related to the number of loops in the cycle, and this is calculated by a matrix-based topological method. The methodology is demonstrated through an analysis of a two-stage refrigeration cycle. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The self-assembly of simple amphiphiles like fatty acids into cell-like membranous structures suggests that such structures were available on prebiotic Earth to support the origin of cellular life. However, the composition of primitive membranes remains unclear because the physical properties of the aqueous environment in which they assembled are relatively unconstrained in terms of temperature, pH, and ionic concentrations. It seems likely that early membranes were composed of mixtures of various amphiphiles in an aqueous medium warmed by geothermal activity prevalent in the Archean era. To better understand the properties of mixed bilayers formed by binary mixtures of single-chain amphiphiles under these conditions, we conducted stability experiments, using membranes composed of various fatty acids having hydrocarbon chain length between 8 and 18 carbons, in mixtures with their glycerol monoacyl amphiphile derivatives (GMAs). The parameters investigated were critical vesicle concentration (CVC), encapsulation, and temperature-dependent stability. We found that hydrocarbon chain length and the presence of GMAs were major factors related to membrane stability. As chain length increased, GMA additions decreased the CVC of the mixtures 4- to 9-fold. Encapsulation ability also increased significantly as a function of chain length, which reduced permeation of small marker molecules. However, long exposures to temperatures in excess of 60 degrees C resulted in a total release of encapsulated solutes and extensive mixing of the membrane components between vesicles. We conclude that GMAs can significantly increase the stability of mixed amphiphile membranes, but further studies are required to establish model membranes that are stable at elevated temperatures.

We searched for consecutive, shallow flux reductions in the stellar light curves obtained by our survey between 2005 February 7 and 2006 December 31 with a total of similar to 4.5 x 10(9) three-telescope simultaneous photometric measurements. No events were detected, allowing us to set upper limits on the number density as a function of size and distance of objects in Sedna-like orbits, using simple models.

AB Aims. We analyze OGLE-2007-BLG-050, a high magnification microlensing event (A similar to 432) whose peak occurred on 2 May, 2007, with pronounced finite-source and parallax effects. We compute planet detection efficiencies for this event in order to determine its sensitivity to the presence of planets around the lens star.
Methods. Both finite-source and parallax effects permit a measurement of the angular Einstein radius theta(E) = 0.48 +/- 0.01 mas and the parallax pi(E) = 0.12 +/- 0.03, leading to an estimate of the lens mass M = 0.50 +/- 0.14 M(circle dot) and its distance to the observer D(L) = 5.5 +/- 0.4 kpc. This is only the second determination of a reasonably precise (<30%) mass estimate for an isolated unseen object, using any method. This allows us to calculate the planetary detection efficiency in physical units (r(perpendicular to), m(p)), where r(perpendicular to) is the projected planet-star separation and mp is the planet mass.
Results. When computing planet detection efficiency, we did not find any planetary signature, i.e. none of the planetary configurations provides a Delta chi(2) improvement higher than 60, and our detection efficiency results reveal significant sensitivity to Neptune-mass planets, and to a lesser extent Earth-mass planets in some configurations. Indeed, Jupiter and Neptune-mass planets are excluded with a high confidence for a large projected separation range between the planet and the lens star, respectively [0.6-10] and [1.4-4] AU, and Earth-mass planets are excluded with a 10% confidence in the lensing zone, i.e. [1.8-3.1] AU.

AB The recent detection by the Fermi gamma-ray space telescope of high-energy gamma-rays from the radio galaxy NGC 1275 makes the observation of the very high energy (VHE: E > 100 GeV) part of its broadband spectrum particularly interesting, especially for the understanding of active galactic nuclei with misaligned multi-structured jets. The radio galaxy NGC 1275 was recently observed by VERITAS at energies above 100 GeV for about 8 hr. No VHE gamma-ray emission was detected by VERITAS from NGC 1275. A 99% confidence level upper limit of 2.1% of the Crab Nebula flux level is obtained at the decorrelation energy of approximately 340 GeV, corresponding to 19% of the power-law extrapolation of the Fermi Large Area Telescope result.

AB We present a multiwavelength study of the formation of massive stellar clusters, their emergence from cocoons of gas and dust, and their feedback on surrounding matter. Using data that span from radio to optical wavelengths, including Spitzer and Hubble Space Telescope ACS observations, we examine the population of young star clusters in the central starburst region of the irregular Wolf-Rayet galaxy IC4662. We model the radio-to-infrared (IR) spectral energy distributions of embedded clusters to determine the properties of their Hii regions and dust cocoons (sizes, masses, densities, temperatures), and use near-IR and optical data with mid-IR spectroscopy to constrain the properties of the embedded clusters themselves (mass, age, extinction, excitation, abundance). The two massive star-formation regions in IC4662 are excited by stellar populations with ages of similar to 4 Myr and masses of similar to 3x10(5) M-aS (TM) (assuming a Kroupa initial mass function). They have high excitation and subsolar abundances, and they may actually be comprised of several massive clusters rather than the single monolithic massive compact objects known as 'super star clusters' (SSCs). Mid-IR spectra reveal that these clusters have very high extinction values, A (V) similar to 20-25 mag, and that the dust in IC4662 is well mixed with the emitting gas, not in a foreground screen.

AB Bacterial reaction centers use light energy to couple the uptake of protons to the successive semi-reduction of two quinones, namely Q(A) and Q(B). These molecules are situated symmetrically in regard to a non-heme iron atom. Four histidines and one glutamic acid, M234Glu, constitute the five ligands of this atom. By flash-induced absorption spectroscopy and delayed fluorescence we have studied in the M234EH and M234EL variants the role played by this acidic residue on the energetic balance between the two quinones as well as in proton uptake. Delayed fluorescence from the P(+)Q(A)(-) state (P is the primary electron donor) and temperature dependence of the rate of P(+)Q(A)(-) charge recombination that are in good agreement show that in the two RC variants, both Q(A)(-) and Q(B)(-) are destabilized by about the same free energy amount: respectively similar to 100 +/- 5 meV and 90 +/- 5 meV for the M234EH and M234EL variants, as compared to the WT. Importantly, in the M234EH and M234EL variants we observe a collapse of the high pH band (present in the wild-type reaction center) of the proton uptake amplitudes associated with formation of Q(A)(-) and Q(B)(-). This band has recently been shown to be a signature of a collective behaviour of an extended, multi-entry, proton uptake network. M234Glu seems to play a central role in the proton sponge-like system formed by the RC protein. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Genetic engineering of phage provides novel opportunities to build various nanomaterials by displaying functional peptide motifs on its surface coat protein. However, any genetic modifications of phage coat proteins must be able to accommodate their many biological roles in the phage replication process. To express functional but inherently unfavorable peptide motifs on major coat protein pVIII, we devised a novel genetic conjugation method to circumvent bacterial biological censorship. Constraining the designed peptides among the degenerate flanking residues, we obtained a pVIII library of phage that retained the desired sequences yet could navigate through the phage replication process due to the naturally selected flanking residues. Further, we systematically analyzed the biochemical and size-related compensation mechanisms of the pVIII expressed peptides by constructing four chemically diverse (His, Trp, Glu, Lys) partial library series. Described genetic conjugation methodology can serve to improve the design of engineered phage and allow further exploitation of these particles as functional nanobiomaterials for various applications.

TI PEGylation of a Maltose Biosensor Promotes Enhanced Signal Response When
Immobilized in a Silica Sol-Gel
SO BIOCONJUGATE CHEMISTRY

ID PERIPLASMIC BINDING-PROTEINS; CONFORMATIONAL-CHANGES; CONSTRUCTION;

AB A robust method to immobilize a maltose biosensor is described using an engineered maltose periplasmic binding protein (PBP) covalently coupled to NBDamide, an environmentally sensitive fluorophore. A mesoporous silica sol-gel derived from diglycerylsilane (DGS) was constructed to embed the maltose biosensor, and the ligand reporting fluorescence properties were measured. When sequestered in the DGS-derived silica matrix, the biosensor retained maltose-dependent fluorescence sensing capability with micromolar affinity, which is consistent with the protein free in solution. The MBP-NBD conjugate was further modified by covalent conjugation with poly(ethylene glycol)-5000 (PEG) to promote the retention of water molecules around the protein and to reduce possible steric effects between the silica matrix and protein. Bioconjugation with PEG molecules does not significantly affect the signaling response of the protein in solution. When immobilized in the DGS polymer, a consistent increase in fluorescence intensity was observed as compared to the protein not functionalized with PEG. To our knowledge, this report presents the first successful method to embed a PBP biosensor in a polymerized matrix and retain signaling response using an environmentally sensitive probe. The immobilization method presented here should be easily adaptable to all conformation-dependent biosensors.

AB High-throughput (HTP) screening of biomass or biomass-degrading enzymes, regardless of the desired outcome, is fraught with obstacles and challenges not typically faced in more traditional biotechnology. The enzyme systems are complex and synergistic and the substrate is highly heterogeneous, insoluble, and difficult to dispense. Digestions are often carried out for days at temperatures of 50 C or higher, leading to significant challenges regarding evaporation control in small well volumes. Furthermore, it is often desirable to condition or "pretreat" the biomass at extreme temperatures and/or pH to enhance enzyme digestibility. Once the substrate has been saccharified, evaluation of the extent and efficiency of conversion is made more difficult by time-consuming and tedious techniques used to measure the sugar products. Over the past decade or so, biomass researchers have creatively addressed these challenges by developing techniques to reduce biomass heterogeneity, uniformly distribute biomass samples at the small scale, pretreat the biomass at the small scale, quantitatively load these samples with enzymes, control evaporation of small reaction volumes for multiday incubations, and rapidly quantify the products. Other aspects of these measurements remain problematic and are being addressed. This review will address some of these challenges in detail, but more importantly, we will endeavor to educate the reader about the trials, tribulations, and pitfalls of carrying out HTP screening in biomass conversion research.

AB Independent down-regulation of genes encoding p-coumarate 3-hydroxylase (C3H) and hydroxycinnamoyl CoA:shikimate/quinate hydroxycinnamoyl transferase (HCT) has been previously shown to reduce the recalcitrance of alfalfa and thereby improve the release of fermentable sugars during enzymatic hydrolysis. In this study, ball-milled lignins were isolated from wild-type control, C3H, and HCT gene down-regulated alfalfa plants. One-and two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques were utilized to determine structural changes in the ball-milled alfalfa lignins resulting from this genetic engineering. After C3H and HCT gene down-regulation, significant structural changes had occurred to the alfalfa ball-milled lignins compared to the wild-type control. A substantial increase in p-hydroxyphenyl units was observed in the transgenic alfalfa ball-milled lignins as well as a concomitant decrease in guaiacyl and syringyl units. Two-dimensional (13)C-(1)H heteronuclear single quantum coherence correlation NMR, one-dimensional distortionless enhancement by polarization transfer-135, and (13)C NMR measurement showed a noteworthy decrease in methoxyl group and beta-O-4 linkage contents in these transgenic alfalfa lignins. (13)C NMR analysis estimated that C3H gene down-regulation reduced the methoxyl content by similar to 55-58% in the ball-milled lignin, while HCT down-regulation decreased methoxyl content by similar to 73%. The gene down-regulated C3H and HCT transgenic alfalfa lignin was largely a p-hydroxyphenyl (H) rich type lignin. Compared to the wild-type plant, the C3H and HCT transgenic lines had an increase in relative abundance of phenylcoumaran and resinol in the ball-milled lignins.

AB We have recently developed a database, pDAWG, focused on information related to plant cell walls. Currently, pDAWG contains seven complete plant genomes, 12 complete algal genomes, along with computed information for individual proteins encoded in these genomes of the following types: (a) carbohydrate active enzyme (CAZy) family information when applicable; (b) phylogenetic trees of cell wall-related CAZy family proteins; (c) protein structure models if available; (d) physical and predicted interactions among proteins; (e) subcellular localization; (f) Pfam domain information; and (g) homology-based functional prediction. A querying system with a graphical interface allows a user to quickly compose information of different sorts about individual genes/proteins and to display the composite information in an intuitive manner, facilitating comparative analyses and knowledge discovery about cell wall genes. pDAWG can be accessed at http://csbl1.bmb.uga.edu/pDAWG/.

AB NAM, ATAF, and CUC2 (NAC) proteins are encoded by one of the largest plant-specific transcription factor gene families. The functions of many NAC proteins relate to different aspects of lignocellulosic biomass production, and a small group of NAC transcription factors has been characterized as master regulators of plant cell wall development. In the present study, a total of 1,232 NAC protein sequences from 11 different organisms were analyzed by sequence phylogeny based on protein DNA-binding domains. We included eight whole genomes (Arabidopsis, rice, poplar, grape, sorghum, soybean, moss (Physcomitrella patens), and spike moss (Selaginella moellendorffii)) and three not yet fully sequenced genomes (maize, switchgrass, and Medicago truncatula) in our analyses. Ninety-two potential PvNAC genes from switchgrass and 148 PtNAC genes from poplar were identified. The 1,232 NAC proteins were phylogenetically classified into eight subfamilies, each of which was further divided into subgroups according to their tree topology. The phylogenetic subgroups were then grouped into different clades each sharing conserved motif patterns in the C-terminal sequences, and those that may function in plant cell wall development were further identified through motif grouping and gene expression pattern analysis using publicly available microarray data. Our results provide a bioinformatic baseline for further functional analyses of candidate NAC genes for improving cell wall and environmental tolerance traits in the bioenergy crops switchgrass and poplar.

AB The switchgrass variety Alamo has been chosen for genome sequencing, genetic breeding, and genetic engineering by the US Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute (JGI) and the US Department of Energy BioEnergy Science Center. Lignin has been considered as a major obstacle for cellulosic biofuel production from switchgrass biomass. The purpose of this study was to provide baseline information on cell wall development in different parts of developing internodes of tillers of switchgrass cultivar Alamo and evaluate the effect of cell wall properties on biomass saccharification. Cell wall structure, soluble and wall-bound phenolics, and lignin content were analyzed from the top, middle, and bottom parts of internodes at different developmental stages using ultraviolet autofluorescence microscopy, histological staining methods, and high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The examination of different parts of the developing internodes revealed differences in the stem structure during development, in the levels of free and well-bound phenolic compounds and lignin content, and in lignin pathway-related gene expression, indicating that the monolignol biosynthetic pathway in switchgrass is under complex spatial and temporal control. Our data clearly show that there was a strong negative correlation between overall lignin content and biomass saccharification efficiency. The ester-linked p-CA/FA ratio showed a positive correlation with lignin content and a negative correlation with sugar release. Our data provide baseline information to facilitate genetic modification of switchgrass recalcitrance traits for biofuel production.

AB Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is a candidate feedstock in bioenergy, and plant breeding and molecular genetic strategies are being used to improve germplasm. In order to assess these subsequent modifications, baseline biomass compositional data are needed in a relevant variety of environments. In this study, switchgrass cv. Alamo was grown in the field, greenhouse, and growth chamber and harvested into individual leaf and stem tissue components. These components were analyzed with pyrolysis vapor analysis using molecular beam mass spectrometry, Fourier transform infrared, and standard wet chemistry methods to characterize and compare the composition among the different growth environments. The details of lignin content, S/G ratios, and degree of cross-linked lignin are discussed. Multivariate approaches such as projection to latent structures regression found a very strong correlation between the lignin content obtained by standard wet chemistry methods and the two high throughput techniques employed to rapidly assess lignin in potential switchgrass candidates. The models were tested on unknown samples and verified by wet chemistry. The similar lignin content found by the two methods shows that both approaches are capable of determining lignin content in biomass in a matter of minutes.

AB Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) has been developed into an important biofuel crop. Embryogenic calli induced from caryopses or inflorescences of the lowland switchgrass cultivar Alamo were used for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. A chimeric hygromycin phosphotransferase gene (hph) was used as the selectable marker and hygromycin as the selection agent. Embryogenic calli were infected with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA105. Calli resistant to hygromycin were obtained after 5 to 8 weeks of selection. Soil-grown transgenic switchgrass plants were obtained 4 to 5 months after Agrobacterium infection. The transgenic nature of the regenerated plants was demonstrated by PCR, Southern blot hybridization analysis, and GUS staining. T1 progeny were obtained after reciprocal crosses between transgenic and untransformed control plants. Molecular analyses of the T1 progeny revealed various patterns of segregation. Transgene silencing was observed in the progeny with multiple inserts. Interestingly, reversal of the expression of the silenced transgene was found in segregating progeny with a single insert.

AB Cerebellar learning appears to be driven by motor error, but whether or not error signals are provided by climbing fibers (CFs) remains a matter of controversy. Here we show that a model of the cerebellum can be trained to simulate the regulation of smooth pursuit eye movements by minimizing its inputs from parallel fibers (PFs), which carry various signals including error and efference copy. The CF spikes act as "learn now" signals. The model can be trained to simulate the regulation of smooth pursuit of visual objects following circular or complex trajectories and provides insight into how Purkinje cells might encode pursuit parameters. In minimizing both error and efference copy, the model demonstrates how cerebellar learning through PF input minimization (InMin) can make movements more accurate and more efficient. An experimental test is derived that would distinguish InMin from other models of cerebellar learning which assume that CFs carry error signals.

ID PERFORMANCE; REQUIREMENTS; BIOMASS
AB Lengthy straw/stalk of biomass may not be directly fed into grinders such as hammer mills and disc refiners. Hence, biomass needs to be preprocessed using coarse grinders like a knife mill to allow for efficient feeding in refiner mills without bridging and choking. Size reduction mechanical energy was directly measured for switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.), wheat straw (Triticum aestivum L.), and corn stover (Zea mays L.) in an instrumented knife mill. Direct power inputs were determined for different knife mill screen openings from 12.7 to 50.8 mm, rotor speeds between 250 and 500 rpm, and mass feed rates from 1 to 11 kg/min. Overall accuracy of power measurement was calculated to be +/- 0.003 kW. Total specific energy (kWh/Mg) was defined as size reduction energy to operate mill with biomass. Effective specific energy was defined as the energy that can be assumed to reach the biomass. The difference is parasitic or no-load energy of mill. Total specific energy for switchgrass, wheat straw, and corn stover chopping increased with knife mill speed, whereas, effective specific energy decreased marginally for switchgrass and increased for wheat straw and corn stover. Total and effective specific energy decreased with an increase in screen size for all the crops studied. Total specific energy decreased with increase in mass feed rate, but effective specific energy increased for switchgrass and wheat straw, and decreased for corn stover at increased feed rate. For knife mill screen size of 25.4 mm and optimum speed of 250 rpm, optimum feed rates were 7.6, 5.8, and 4.5 kg/min for switchgrass, wheat straw, and corn stover, respectively, and the corresponding total specific energies were 7.57, 10.53, and 8.87 kWh/Mg and effective specific energies were 1.27, 1.50, and 0.24 kWh/Mg for switchgrass, wheat straw, and corn stover, respectively. Energy utilization ratios were calculated as 16.8%, 14.3%, and 2.8% for switchgrass, wheat straw, and corn stover, respectively. These data will be useful for preparing the feed material for subsequent fine grinding operations and designing new mills. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The purpose of this study is to use existing simulation tools to quantify the energy savings benefits of integrated control in office buildings. An EnergyPlus medium office benchmark simulation model (V1.0_3.0) developed by the Department of Energy (DOE) was used as a baseline model for this study. The baseline model was modified to examine the energy savings benefits of three possible control strategies compared to a benchmark case across 16 DOE climate zones. Two controllable subsystems were examined: (1) dimming of electric lighting, and (2) controllable window transmission. Simulation cases were run in EnergyPlus V3.0.0 for building window-to-wall ratios (WWR) of 33% and 66%. All three strategies employed electric lighting dimming resulting in lighting energy savings in building perimeter zones ranging from 64% to 84%. Integrated control of electric lighting and window transmission resulted in heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) energy savings ranging from -1% to 40%. Control of electric lighting and window transmission with HVAC integration (seasonal schedule of window transmission control) resulted in HVAC energy savings ranging from 3% to 43%. HVAC energy savings decreased moving from warm climates to cold climates and increased when moving from humid, to dry, to marine climates.

AB We have generalized the methodology of our regional amplitude tomography from the Lg phase to the four primary regional phases (Pn, Pg, Sn, Lg). Differences in the geometrical spreading, source term, site term, and travel paths are accounted for, while event source parameters such as seismic moment are consistent among phases. In the process, we have developed the first comprehensive regional P-wave and S-wave attenuation model of the crust and upper mantle by simultaneously using the amplitudes of four regional phases. When applied to an area encompassing the Middle East, eastern Europe, western Asia, south Asia, and northeast Africa for the 1-2 Hz passband, we find large differences in the attenuation of the lithosphere across the region. The tectonic Tethys collision zone has high attenuation, while stable outlying regions have low attenuation. While crust and mantle Q variations are often consistent, we do find several notable areas where they differ considerably but are appropriate given the region's tectonic history. Lastly, the relative values of Qp and Qs indicate that scattering Q is likely the dominant source of attenuation in the crust at these frequencies.

ID JUVENILE LIFE-HISTORY; SNAKE RIVER-BASIN; SURVIVAL
AB A total of 1154 acoustic-tagged subyearling fall Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were monitored during their movement through Lower Monumental Reservoir, Snake River, Washington, USA. A release-recapture design was developed to partition their fates into migration, delayed migration (i.e., holdover or temporary residualization), and mortality using a series of standard detection arrays augmented with individual intrareach autonomous receivers. The standard detection arrays were used in conjunction with traditional release-recapture models to estimate the joint probabilities of migrating and surviving through the reservoir. Closed population estimators were used to estimate the abundance of tagged fish still alive in the river reaches and to differentiate mortality from delayed migration. Over the course of the study from 15 August to 14 November 2007, delayed migration rates increased and mortality rates generally declined. A minimum of 10.6% of the fish were estimated to have delayed migration in the reservoir during the study period.

AB Chlorophyll (Chla) and chlorophyllin (CHL) were shown previously to reduce carcinogen bioavailability, biomarker damage, and tumorigenicity in trout and rats. These findings were partially extended to humans, where CHL reduced excretion of aflatoxin B-1 (AFB(1))-DNA repair products in Chinese unavoidably exposed to dietary AFB(1). However, neither AFB(1) pharmacokinetics nor Chla effects were examined. We conducted an unblinded crossover study to establish AFB(1) pharmacokinetic parameters among four human volunteers, and to explore possible effects of CHL or Chla cotreatment in three of those volunteers. For protocol 1, fasted subjects received an Institutional Review Board-approved dose of 14C-AFB(1) (30 ng, 5 nCi) by capsule with 100 mL water, followed by normal eating and drinking after 2 hours. Blood and cumulative urine samples were collected over 72 hours, and 14C-AFB(1) equivalents were determined by accelerator mass spectrometry. Protocols 2 and 3 were similar except capsules also contained 150 mg of purified Chla or CHL, respectively. Protocols were repeated thrice for each volunteer. The study revealed rapid human AFB(1) uptake (plasma k(a), 5.05 +/- 1.10 h(-1); T-max, 1.0 hour) and urinary elimination (95% complete by 24 hours) kinetics. Chla and CHL treatment each significantly impeded AFB(1) absorption and reduced Cmax and AUCs (plasma and urine) in one or more subjects. These initial results provide AFB(1) pharmacokinetic parameters previously unavailable for humans, and suggest that Chla or CHL co-consumption may limit the bioavailability of ingested aflatoxin in humans, as they do in animal models.

AB Carbon fiber reinforced carbon matrix (C/C) composites are often used for structural and frictional applications at a wide range of temperatures due to their excellent mechanical and thermal properties. Tailoring of mechanical properties through optimization of microstructure is critical for achieving maximum composite performance. This article addresses the evolution of the fiber and matrix microstructure and related nano-mechanical properties in two different C/C composites after being subjected to heat treatment at temperatures between 1800 and 2400 degrees C. Microstructure and corresponding nano-mechanical properties of C/C composites were studied using Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM), High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HRTEM) and nanoindentation techniques. Increased heat treatment temperature (HTT) led to formation of a better-organized microstructure of fiber and matrix and also to formation of thermal cracks. The elastic modulus of rough laminar CVI pyrocarbon decreased from 18 to 12 GPa with increased HTT. in contrast, the isotropic CVI pyrocarbon and charred resin matrix displayed only a slight change of elastic modulus. The elastic modulus of PAN fiber increased from 18 to 34 GPa, indicating the development of a better-organized microstructure in the fiber-axial direction. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are a potential source of smooth muscle cells (SMCs) for constructing tissue-engineered vascular grafts. However, the details of how specific combinations of vascular microenvironmental factors regulate MSCs are not well understood. Previous studies have suggested that both mechanical stimulation with uniaxial cyclic strain and chemical stimulation with transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGF-beta 1) can induce smooth muscle markers in MSCs. In this study, we investigated the combined effects of uniaxial cyclic strain and TGF-beta 1 stimulation on MSCs. By using a proteomic analysis, we found differential regulation of several proteins and genes, such as the up-regulation of TGF-beta 1-induced protein ig-h3 (BGH3) protein levels by TGF-beta 1 and up-regulation of calponin 3 protein level by cyclic strain. At the gene expression level, BGH3 was induced by TGF-beta 1, but calponin 3 was not significantly regulated by mechanical strain or TGF-beta 1, which was in contrast to the synergistic up-regulation of calponin 1 gene expression by cyclic strain and TGF-beta 1. Further experiments with cycloheximide treatment suggested that the up-regulation of calponin 3 by cyclic strain was at post-transcriptional level. The results in this study suggest that both mechanical stimulation and TGF-beta 1 signaling play unique and important roles in the regulation of MSCs at both transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels, and that a precise combination of microenvironmental cues may promote MSC differentiation.

AB X-ray crystallographic and cross-polarization/magic angle spinning C-13 nuclear magnetic resonance techniques have been used to study an ethylenediamine (EDA)-cellulose I complex, a transient structure in the cellulose I to cellulose IIII conversion. The crystal structure (space group P2 (1) ; a = 4.546 , b = 11.330 , c = 10.368 and gamma = 94.017A degrees) corresponds to a one-chain unit cell with one glucosyl residue in the asymmetric unit, a gt conformation for the hydroxymethyl group, and one EDA molecule per glucosyl residue. Unusually, there are no O-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds between the cellulose chains; the chains are arranged in hydrophobic stacks, stabilized by hydrogen bonds to the amine groups of bridging EDA molecules. This new structure is an example of a complex in which the cellulose chains are isolated from each other, and provides a number of insights into the structural pathway followed during the conversion of cellulose I to cellulose IIII through EDA treatment.

ID FATIGUE FAILURE
AB Silicon nitride material has been traditionally used as bearing material due to its superior performance against bearing steel. Its successful application as a bearing element has led to the development of rolling contact applications in turbomachinery and automotive industries. In the case of latter, this is especially true for the engine manufacturing industry where its excellent rolling contact performance can make significant savings on warranty cost for engine manufactures. In spite of these advantages, the remaining limitation for their broader application is the high component machining cost. Further understanding of rolling contact performance of silicon nitride in relation to its surface integrity will enable engine manufacturers to produce components that meet the design requirements while at the same time reduce the machining cost. In the present study, the relationship between the C-sphere strength of a silicon nitride and its rolling contact fatigue life is investigated. The C-sphere test is used here to compare the strengths of three batches of sintered reaction-bonded silicon nitride (SRBSN) specimens with different subsurface quality induced by variation of machining parameters. In parallel, the rolling contact fatigue (RCF) performance of those machining conditions is studied on a modified four-ball tester. The results show that the most aggressively machined specimens have the weakest C-sphere strength and the shortest RCF life. This positive relationship can give component manufacturers a valuable reference when they make selections of candidate material and finishing standards. (c) 2009 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l.

AB There are currently ca. 317 recognized species of turtles and tortoises in the world. Of those that have been assessed on the IUCN Red List, 63% are considered threatened, and 10% are critically endangered, with ca. 42% of all known turtle species threatened. Without directed strategic conservation planning, a significant portion of turtle diversity could be lost over the next century. Toward that conservation effort, we compiled museum and literature occurrence records for all of the world's tortoises and freshwater turtle species to determine their distributions and identify priority regions for conservation. We constructed projected range maps for each species by selecting geographic information system-defined hydrologic unit compartments (HUCs) with verified locality points, and then added HUCs that connected known point localities in the same watershed or physiographic region and that had similar habitats and elevations as the verified HUCs. We analyzed a total of 305 turtle species and assigned each to 1 of 7 geographic regions of the world. Patterns of global turtle species distributions were determined and regional areas of turtle species richness identified. In only 2 areas of the world did as many as 18 or 19 species occur together in individual HUCs. We then compared species distributions with existing global conservation strategies (GCSs) and established biodiversity priority areas. Presence of a species in a GCS was defined as >= 5% its range. Of the 34 biodiversity hotspots, 28 collectively contain the projected ranges of 192 turtle species, with 74 endemic; the 5 high-biodiversity wilderness areas contain 72 species, with 17 endemic; and 16 other wilderness areas contain 52 species, with I endemic. However, 116 turtle species have either < 50% of their ranges in existing GCSs (57 species) or do not occur in them at all (59 species, 19.3%), thus potentially leaving many tortoises and freshwater turtles without any regional GCS. For each of these 116 species we identify a priority Ecoregion for further conservation consideration, and we identify 3 new global Turtle Priority Areas for conservation based on aggregated Ecoregions. These are the Southeastern United States, Lower Gangetic Plain, and Coastal Australia Turtle Priority Areas.

For the first time, the longitudinal transition amplitude to the S-11(1535) was extracted from the n pi(+) data. Also, new results on the transition amplitudes for the D-13(1520) resonance are presented showing a rapid transition from helicity 3/2 dominance seen at the real photon point to helicty 1/2 dominance at higher Q(2).

AB The reactions pi(-)p -> eta n and gamma p -> eta p are investigated within a dynamical coupled-channels model of meson production reactions in the nucleon resonance region The meson-baryon channels included are pi N, pi Delta, sigma N, and rho N The direct eta-photoproduction process is studied within a formalism based on a chiral constituent quark model approach, complemented with a one-gluon-exchange mechanism, to take into account the breakdown of the SU(6)circle times O(3) symmetry In the models search, the following known nucleon resonances are embodied S-11(1535), S-11(1650), P-11(1440), P-11(1710), P-13(1720), D-13(1520), D-13(1700), D-15(1675), and F-15(1680). Data for the pi(-)p -> eta n reaction from threshold up to a total center-of-mass energy of W approximate to 2 GeV are satisfactorily reproduced For the photoproduction channel: two additional higher mass known resonances, P-13(1900) and F-15(2000), are also considered However, reproducing the data for gamma p -> eta p requires, within our approach, two new nucleon resonances, for which we extract, mass and width

AB Two basic motivations for an upgraded JLab facility arc the needs to determine the essential nature of light-quark confinement and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking (DCSB); and to understand nucleon structure and spectroscopy in terms of QCD's elementary degrees of freedom During the next, toll year's a programme of experiment and theory will be conducted that call address these questions. We present a Dyson-Schwinger equation perspective on this effort with numerous illustrations; amongst them. an interpretation of string-breaking, a symmetry-preserving truncation for mesons, the nucleon's strangeness sigma-term, and the neutron's charge distribution

AB It is unavoidable to deal with the quark and gluon momentum and angular momentum contributions to the nucleon momentum and spin in the study of nucleon internal structure However we never have the quark and gluon momentum, orbital angular momentum and gluon spin operators which satisfy both the guage invariance and the canonical momentum and angular momentum commutation relation The conflicts between the guage invariance and canonical quantization requirement of these operators are discussed A new set of quark and gluon momentum, orbital angular momentum and spin operators, which satisfy, both the gauge. invariance and canonical momentum and angular momentum commutation relation, are proposed The key point to achieve such a proper decomposition is to separate the gauge field into the pure gauge and the gauge covariant parts The same conflicts also exist in QED and quantum mechanics and have been solved in the same manner The impacts of this new decomposition to the nucleon internal structure are discussed

ID NUCLEON RESONANCE REGION; MESON PRODUCTION; MODEL
AB Within the Excited Baryon Analysis Center we have performed a dynamical coupled-channels analysis of the available p(e,e'pi)N data in the region of W <= 1.6 GeV and Q(2) <= 1 45 (GeV/c)(2) The channels included are gamma*N, pi N, eta N, and pi pi N which has pi Delta, rho N, and sigma N components. With the hadronic parameters of the model determined in our previous investigations of pi N ->pi N reaction, we have found that the available data in the considered W <= 1.6 GeV region can be fitted well by only adjusting the bare gamma*N -> N* helicity amplitudes for the lowest N* states in P(33), P(11), S(11) and D(13) partial waves. The meson cloud effect, as required by the unitarity conditions, on the gamma*N -> N* form factors are examined.

DE photoproduction of phi-mesons; linearly-polarized photons; polarization
observables
AB Observables from vector meson photoproduction by linearly-polarized photons can be expressed in term of bilinear combinations of helicity amplitudes parameterized by the Spin Density Matrix Elements (SDMEs). These SDMEs give straightforward relations for understanding the nature of the parity exchange at threshold energies, as well as for extracting signatures of the Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka violation. This paper will show preliminary measurements of SDMEs for (gamma) over barp -> phi p in the photon energy range of 1.7 to 1.9 GeV (momentum transfer squared t range of - 1.2 to -0.25 GeV(2)) and 1.9 to 2.1 GeV (t range of -1.4 to -0.25 GeV(2)) from the g8b experimental data collected in the summer of 2005 in the Hall 13 of Jefferson Lab.

TI Trade, transport, and sinks extend the carbon dioxide responsibility of
countries: An editorial essay
SO CLIMATIC CHANGE
LA English
DT Article
ID CLIMATE-CHANGE; SUSTAINABLE CONSUMPTION; EUROPEAN FORESTS; CO2;
INVENTORIES; MITIGATION; GROWTH
AB Globalization and the dynamics of ecosystem sinks need be considered in post-Kyoto climate negotiations as they increasingly affect the carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere. Currently, the allocation of responsibility for greenhouse gas mitigation is based on territorial emissions from fossil-fuel combustion, process emissions and some land-use emissions. However, at least three additional factors can significantly alter a country's impact on climate from carbon dioxide emissions. First, international trade causes a separation of consumption from production, reducing domestic pollution at the expense of foreign producers, or vice versa. Second, international transportation emissions are not allocated to countries for the purpose of mitigation. Third, forest growth absorbs carbon dioxide and can contribute to both carbon sequestration and climate change protection. Here we quantify how these three factors change the carbon dioxide emissions allocated to China, Japan, Russia, USA, and European Union member countries. We show that international trade can change the carbon dioxide currently allocated to countries by up to 60% and that forest expansion can turn some countries into net carbon sinks. These factors are expected to become more dominant as fossil-fuel combustion and process emissions are mitigated and as international trade and forest sinks continue to grow. Emission inventories currently in wide-spread use help to understand the global carbon cycle, but for long-term climate change mitigation a deeper understanding of the interaction between the carbon cycle and society is needed. Restructuring international trade and investment flows to meet environmental objectives, together with the inclusion of forest sinks, are crucial issues that need consideration in the design of future climate policies. And even these additional issues do not capture the full impact of changes in the carbon cycle on the global climate system.

AB We have measured and reconstructed via forward modeling a small volume of microstructure of high purity, well annealed nickel using high energy x-ray diffraction microscopy (HEDM). Statistical distributions characterizing grain orientations, intra-granular misorientations, and nearest neighbor grain misorientations are extracted. Results are consistent with recent electron backscatter diffraction measurements. Peaks in the grain neighbor misorientation angle distribution at 60 degrees (Sigma 3) and 39 degrees (Sigma 9) have resolution limited widths of approximate to 0.14 degree FWHM. The analysis demonstrates that HEDM can recover grain and grain boundary statistics comparable to OIM volume measurements; more extensive data sets will lead to full, five parameter grain boundary character distributions. Due to its non-destructive nature, HEDM can then watch, both statistically and through tracking of individual grains and boundaries, the evolution of such distributions with processing of the sample.

AB The p53 protein is modified by as many as 50 individual posttranslational modifications. Many of these occur in response to genotoxic or nongenotoxic stresses and show interdependence, such that one or more modifications can nucleate subsequent events. This interdependent nature suggests a pathway that operates through multiple cooperative events as opposed to distinct functions for individual, isolated modifications. This concept, supported by recent investigations, which provide exquisite detail as to how various modifications mediate precise protein-protein interactions in a cooperative manner, may explain why knockin mice expressing p53 proteins substituted at one or just a few sites of modification typically show only subtle effects on p53 function. The present article focuses on recent, exciting progress and develops the idea that the impact of modification on p53 function is achieved through collective and integrated events.

AB This paper summarises the results of a benchmark study that compares a number of mathematical and numerical models applied to specific problems in the context of carbon dioxide (CO2) storage in geologic formations. The processes modelled comprise advective multi-phase flow, compositional effects due to dissolution of CO2 into the ambient brine and non-isothermal effects due to temperature gradients and the Joule-Thompson effect. The problems deal with leakage through a leaky well, methane recovery enhanced by CO2 injection and a reservoir-scale injection scenario into a heterogeneous formation. We give a description of the benchmark problems then briefly introduce the participating codes and finally present and discuss the results of the benchmark study.

TI ROOT - A C++ framework for petabyte data storage, statistical analysis

AB ROOT is an object-oriented C++ framework conceived in the high-energy physics (HEP) community. designed for storing and analyzing petabytes of data in an efficient way. Any instance of a C++ class can be stored into a ROOT file in a machine-independent compressed binary format. In ROOT the 17ree object container is optimized for statistical data analysis over very large data sets by using vertical data storage techniques. These containers can span a large number of files on local disks, the web, or a number of different shared file systems. In order to analyze this data, the user can chose out of a wide set of mathematical and statistical functions, inClUding linear algebra classes, numerical algorithms such as integration and minimization, and various methods for performing regression analysis (fitting). In particular. the RooFit package allows the user to perform complex data modeling and fitting while the RooStats library provides abstractions and implementations for advanced statistical tools. Multivariate classification methods based on machine learning techniques are available via the TMVA package. A central piece in these analysis tools are the histogram classes which provide binning of one- and multi-dimensional data. Results can be saved in high-quality graphical formats like Postscript and PDF or in bitmap formats like JPG or GIF. The result can also be stored into ROOT macros that allow a full recreation and rework of the graphics. Users typically create their analysis macros step by step, making use of the interactive C++ interpreter CINT, while running over small data samples. Once the development is finished, they can run these macros at full compiled speed over large data sets. using onthe-fly compilation, or by creating a stand-alone batch program. Finally, if processing farms are available, the user can reduce the execution time of intrinsically parallel tasks - e.g. data mining in HEP - by using PROOF, which will take care of optimally distributing the work over the available resources in a transparent way.

By using a combination of 32-bit and 64-bit floating point arithmetic, the performance of many dense and sparse linear algebra algorithms can be significantly enhanced while maintaining the 64-bit accuracy of the resulting solution. The approach presented here can apply not only to conventional processors but also to other technologies such as Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA), Graphical Processing Units (CPU), and the STI Cell BE processor.

Nature of problem: On modern architectures, the performance of 32-bit operations is often at least twice as fast as the performance of 64-bit operations. By using a combination of 32-bit and 64-bit floating point arithmetic, the performance of many dense and sparse linear algebra algorithms can be significantly enhanced while maintaining the 64-bit accuracy of the resulting solution.
Solution method: Mixed precision algorithms stem from the observation that, in many cases, a single precision solution of a problem can be refined to the point where double precision accuracy is achieved. A common approach to the solution of linear systems, either dense or sparse, is to perform the LU factorization of the coefficient matrix using Gaussian elimination. First, the coefficient matrix A is factored into the product of a lower triangular matrix L and an upper triangular matrix U. Partial row pivoting is in general used to improve numerical stability resulting in a factorization PA = LU, where P is a permutation matrix. The solution for the system is achieved by first solving Ly = Pb (forward substitution) and then solving Ux = y (backward substitution). Due to round-off errors, the computed solution, x, carries a numerical error magnified by the condition number of the coefficient matrix A. In order to improve the computed solution, an iterative process can be applied, which produces a correction to the computed solution at each iteration. which then yields the method that is commonly known as the iterative refinement algorithm. Provided that the system is not too ill-conditioned, the algorithm produces a solution correct to the working precision.

AB Cyberinfrastructure science and engineering gateways have become an important modality to connect science and engineering communities and cyberinfrastructure. The use of cyberinfrastructure through gateways is fundamental to the advancement of science and engineering. However, learning science gateway technologies and developing science gateways remain a significant challenge, given that science gateway technologies are still actively evolving and often include a number of sophisticated components. A geosciences gateway must be designed to accommodate legacy methods that geoscientists use in conventional computational tools. The research described in this paper establishes an open-source toolkit-SimpleGrid for learning and developing science gateways based on a service-oriented architecture using a component-based approach that allows flexible separation and integration of the components between geocomputation applications and cyberinfrastructure.

AB Using the results of extensive Monte Carlo simulations we discuss corrections to the linear mixing rule in strongly coupled binary ionic mixtures. We analyze the plasma screening function at zero separation, H(jk)(0), for two ions (of types j = 1,, 2 and k=1,2) in a strongly coupled binary mixture. The function H(jk)(0) is estimated by two methods: (1) from the difference of Helmholtz Coulomb free energies at large and zero separations; (2) by fitting the Widom expansion of H(jk)(x) in powers of interionic distance x to Monte Carlo data on the radial pair distribution function H(jk)(x). These methods are shown to be in good agreement. For illustration, we analyze the plasma screening enhancement of nuclear burning rates in dense stellar matter. (C) 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

AB The classical terrace-ledge-kink model of crystal growth is widely used to interpret mineral formation in biological and geological systems. A key assumption underlying application of the model is that thermal fluctuations of steps are sufficiently rapid to produce an abundance of kink sites for attachment of growth units. High-resolution in situ atomic force microscopy (AFM) studies and kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of step-edge structure and dynamics show this physical picture to be invalid for the common mineral calcite whose steps exhibit low kink density and weak step edge fluctuations. As a consequence, interactions of impurities with calcite step edges cannot be interpreted with traditional thermodynamic models based on minimization of the Gibbs free energy. Instead, impurity-step interactions follow a different mechanism determined by the kinetics of attachment and detachment. Step advance is unimpeded when the creation of new kinks by attachment of growth units to the step outpaces binding of impurities to the newly created kinks. This kink-limited model offers a plausible explanation for reports of "kinetic disequilibrium" of trace element signatures. Moreover, because kink density is tied to crystal solubility, these findings argue for a theory based on weak fluctuations to interpret growth of many common crystalline phases of importance in geochemical, biological, and technological settings.

AB Every organism on earth relies on associations with its neighbors to sustain life. For example, plants form associations with neighboring plants, microflora, and microfauna, while humans maintain symbiotic associations with intestinal microbial flora, which is indispensable for nutrient assimilation and development of the innate immune system. Most of these associations are facilitated by chemical cues exchanged between the host and the symbionts. In the rhizosphere, which includes plant roots and the surrounding area of soil influenced by the roots, plants exude chemicals to effectively communicate with their neighboring soil organisms. Here we review the current literature pertaining to the chemical communication that exists between plants and microorganisms and the biological processes they sustain.

AB Sustainable management of the world's land resources is a key to the provision of food for a more affluent global population and progress in other areas, such as improved water quality and mitigation of climate change. But the world's land resources are far too varied in their soils, native and managed vegetation, water resources and climatic norms and extremes to expect that a single, globally comprehensive strategy can be applied to meet such goals. Rather, lessons to guide programs aimed at achieving sustainability can be assembled from experience gained in discrete geographic, climatic and edaphic regions. One such region is the semiarid to subhumid North American Great Plains (hereafter NAGP), a region that since settlement has experienced many periods of economic boom and many of economic distress. Originally a grassland, its vulnerability to soil erosion, environmental problems associated with the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, and the overuse of surface and ground water is typical of other important grasslands converted to agriculture in South America and in the European and central Asiatic regions of the former Soviet Union. In addition, there is reason to believe that many of these grassland regions, most located in continental interiors, may be further stressed by climate changes caused by rising atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases. One action that can potentially contribute to climate change mitigation is the production of herbaceous biomass, for which the NAGP region is well suited. This paper reviews the geography, history and current condition of the NAGP and offers suggestions about how the agriculture, economy and environment of this and similar regions around the world can be made more sustainable and able to contribute to a reduction in carbon dioxide (CO(2)) emissions and consequent global warming.

ID CLIMATE
AB Adaptation to the adverse impacts of climate change has been recognized as a priority area for national and international policy. The findings of the Fourth Assessment Report of the IPCC have reemphasized the urgency of action and the scale of response needed to cope with climate change outcomes. The scientific community has an important role to play in advancing the information and knowledge base that would help in identifying, developing and implementing effective responses to enhance adaptive capacity and reduce vulnerability. This paper examines the way in which science and research could advance the adaptation agenda. To do so, we pose a number of questions aimed at identifying the knowledge gaps and research needs. We argue that in order to address these science and research needs, an integrated approach is necessary, one that combines new knowledge with new approaches for knowledge generation, and where research and practice co-evolve; and that such a learning-by-doing approach is essential to rapidly scale up and implement concrete adaptation actions.

AB Peroxisomes are highly dynamic subcellular organelles that undergo proliferation in response to a variety of environmental stimuli. The past few years have witnessed the identification and characterization of several key classes of proteins required for peroxisome division and proliferation in Arabidopsis. These include the PEROXIN11 (PEX11) family, the dynamin-related proteins (DRPs), and the FISSION1 (FIS1) proteins, some of which are shared by the division machineries of peroxisomes and other organelles. Recent studies have also uncovered a role for the photoreceptor phyA and the bZIP transcription factor HY5 homolog (HYH) in regulating light-induced peroxisome proliferation in Arabidopsis. In this review we attempt to summarize the current state of our knowledge of peroxisome division/proliferation and their regulation in plants.

AB Fully digital data acquisition systems for use in flow cytometry provide excellent flexibility and precision. Here, we demonstrate the development of a low cost, small, and low power digital flow cytometry data acquisition system using a single microcontroller chip with an integrated analog to digital converter (ADC). Our demonstration system uses a commercially available evaluation board making the system simple to integrate into a flow cytometer. We have evaluated this system using calibration microspheres analyzed on commercial, slow-flow, and CCD-based flow cytometers. In our evaluations, our demonstration data system clearly resolves all eight peaks of a Rainbow microsphere set on both a slow-flow flow cytometer and a retrofitted BD FACScalibur, which indicates it has the sensitivity and resolution required for most flow cytometry applications. It is also capable of millisecond time resolution, full waveform Collection, and selective triggering of data collection from a CCD camera. The capability of our demonstration system suggests that the use of microcontrollers for flow cytometry digital data-acquisition will be increasingly valuable for extending the life of older cytometers and provides a compelling data-system design approach for low-cost, portable flow cytometers.

AB This paper reports on the strength and structure of the Kuroshio Extension and its recirculation gyres. In the time average, quasi-permanent recirculation gyres are found to the north and south of the Kuroshio Extension jet. The characteristics of these recirculations gyres are determined from the combined observations from the Kuroshio Extension System Study (KESS) field program (June 2004-June 2006) and include current meters, pressure and current recording inverted echo sounders, and subsurface floats. The position and strength of the recirculation gyres simulated by a high-resolution numerical model are found to be consistent with the observations. The circulation pattern that is revealed is of a complex system of multiple recirculation gyres that are embedded in the crests and troughs of the quasi-permanent meanders of the Kuroshio Extension. At the location of the KESS array, the Kuroshio Extension jet and its recirculation gyres transport of about 114Sv. This represents a 2.7-fold increase in the transport of the current compared to the Kuroshio's transport at Cape Ashizuri before it separates from the coast and flows eastward into the open ocean. This enhancement in the current's transport comes from the development of the flanking recirculation gyres. Estimates from an array of inverted echo sounders and a high-resolution ocean general circulation model are of similar magnitude. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The problem of sensor scheduling is to select the number and combination of sensors to activate over time. The goal is usually to trade off tracking performance and sensor usage. We formulate a version of this problem involving multiple targets as a partially observable Markov decision process, and use this formulation to develop a nonmyopic sensor-scheduling scheme. Our scheme integrates sequential multisensor joint probabilistic data association and particle filtering for belief-state estimation, and use a simulation-based Q-value approximation method called completely observable rollout for decision making. We illustrate the effectiveness of our approach by an example with multiple sensors activated simultaneously to track multiple targets. We also explore the trade-off between tracking error and sensor cost using our nonmyopic scheme. (C) 2007 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

AB Energy development has been occurring in the intermountain western United States for over a century, yet few studies have attempted to spatially quantify the impacts of this disturbance on native ecosystems. We used temporal remotely sensed data for the Pinedale Anticline Project Area (PAPA) in western Wyoming, a region that has experienced increased natural gas development within the past 10 yr, to quantify the spatiotemporal distribution of Wyoming big sagebrush Artemisia tridentata, natural gas development, and other landcover types. Our analyses included 5 Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) images of the PAPA over a 22-yr period (1985-2006). We determined whether Wyoming big sagebrush spatiotemporal patterns were associated with natural gas development or other landcover types. We also developed a footprint model to determine the direct and indirect impacts of natural gas development on the distribution of Wyoming big sagebrush habitats. Over the 22-yr period, we observed an inverse relationship between the amount of Wyoming big sagebrush habitat and natural gas development. During this time, Wyoming big sagebrush habitat declined linearly at a rate of 0.2% yr-1 (4.5% total net loss), whereas natural gas development increased exponentially at a rate of 20% yr-1 (4800% total net increase). Our evaluation indicated that, by 2006, natural gas development directly impacted 2.7% (1750 ha) of original Wyoming big sagebrush habitat. Indirect impacts, quantified to account for degraded habitat quality, affected as much as 58.5% (assuming 1000-m buffers) of the original Wyoming big sagebrush habitat. Integrating assessments of the direct and indirect impacts will yield a better elucidation of the overall effects of disturbances on ecosystem function and quality.

AB Soil moisture integrates and drives ecohydrological processes in dryland ecosystems. However, despite the central importance of soil moisture, relevant field Studies have not holistically assessed key inter-related aspects of ecohydrological spatiotemporal variation: the threshold-like manner in which soil texture controls the frequency at which soil water is readily available for plants, assessment of horizontal heterogeneity associated with vegetation patches in addition to vertical heterogeneity associated with depth, seasonal variation associated with precipitation type (snow vs rain) and inter-annual variation spanning notably wet and dry periods. We measured soil water content by neutron probe in a semiarid pinon-juniper woodland (Pinus edulis and Juniperus monosperma) in northern New Mexico, USA, over 15 years and evaluated an ecohydrological metric-plant-available water, estimated as the percentage of time that soil water content was sufficiently wet to be generally available to plants. The frequency of plant-available water varied significantly across all variables assessed: precipitation amount (across years or seasons), precipitation type, vertically with soil depth and horizontally with vegetation patch type (canopy patches beneath trees, intercanopy patches between trees and edges between the two patch types). Notably, in many cases, horizontal heterogeneity in plant-available water associated with vegetation patch wits as substantial as vertical heterogeneity associated with depth, yet such horizontal heterogeneity is not included in most ecological or hydrological models. Our results highlight spatiotemporal variation in the frequency of plant-available water that is substantial, often overlooked, and may need to be explicitly considered for predicting dryland vegetation responses to land use and climate change.

AB To provide an improved understanding of the genesis of high-temperature Ag-Pb-Zn ore: deposits we have obtained revised estimates for the thermodynamic properties for (Cu, Ag)(10)(Fe, Zn)(2)Sb(4)S(13) fahlore endmember components. Calculations of aqueous solution-mineral (250 degrees-300 degrees C) for fahlore-bearing assemblages from Ag-Pb-Zn ore deposits from the Coeur d'Alene (Idaho, United States) and Keno Hill (Yukon Territory, Canada) milling districts demonstrate consistency between predicted and observed mineral assembles and hydrothermal fluids based oil these flew estimates. These calculations confirm that much of the Ag mined from the Coeur d'Alene district wits originally present ill galena. They also confirm that sphalerite was typically undersaturated in fluids crystallizing Fe-rich fahlores in the Coeur d'Alene Ag-Pb-Zn ores and constrain the parameters of the fluids equilibrated with these ores to within narrow limits. For the Keno Hill deposits these: calculations demonstrate that the early, high-temperature (300 degrees-310 degrees C) fluids (0.07 0.7 in Pb(2)S(2)-AgSbS(2) galena) or their compositionally equivalent sulfosalt fosalt assemblages, diaphorite (Pb(2)Ag(3)Sb(3)S(8)) + miargyrite ([(AgSb), Pb(2)]S(2)) or diaphorite (PbAg(3)Sb(3)S(8)) + frieslebenite (PbAgSbS(3)), were deposited initially in Ag-rich fahlore-bearing ores. These minerals were replaced by Ag-poor galena and epithermal Ag minerals that include acanthite, stephanite and polybasite.

AB A novel compound named pentafluorophenyl boron oxalate (PFPBO) has been synthesized. PFPBO has a unique molecular structure containing a boron atom center with electron deficiency and an oxalate group. It is found that when PFPBO is used as additive, the solubility of lithium fluoride (LiF) or lithium oxide (Li(2)O, Li(2)O(2)) in propylene carbonate (PC) and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) solvents can be increased dramatically. The new electrolytes show high ionic conductivity, high lithium ion transference number and good compatibility with LiMn(2)O(4) cathode and MCMB anode. PFPBO was synthesized with the designed structure to act as a bi-functional additive: boron-based anion receptor (BBAR) additive and stable solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) formation additive in PC-based electrolytes. The results show it does possess these two desired functionalities. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The purposes of this research are to contrast the energy use characteristics of old residential buildings and new residential buildings in Shanghai, China, to look into influence factors of residential energy consumption, and to further analyze the reasons which result in the differences of energy consumption quantities between high-energy use family group and low-energy use family group. 1610 families in Residential District A and 819 families in Residential District B were chosen to trace their monthly energy consumption data in the whole year of 2006. Buildings in District A were all constructed in the 1980s, while those in District B were built in the 2000s. 300 families in each district were further selected from all above investigated families to do questionnaires in the year of 2007, so as to understand building characteristics, the possession and utilization of space heating and cooling appliances, and energy-saving consciousness. Annual energy consumption of the two kinds of buildings is contrasted and energy consumption quantities of spacing cooling and heating are also calculated. Influencing factors of residential energy consumption are analyzed by Quantification Theory I. Quantification Theory III is used to classify all the families into different categories based on the differences in their energy consumption amounts, and to further find out the reasons leading to the different energy consumption between different groups. Conclusions are as follows: (1) the average annual energy consumption quantity is 23.27 GJ/household for new buildings and 14.40 GJ/household for old buildings. The ratio of space heating and cooling to total annual energy consumption is just 16% and 11.6% for new buildings and old buildings respectively; (2) energy consumption and its variance lie on the integration of many factors, such as the floor area, materials of window frames, the number of family members, operation months of space heaters in winter and air conditioners in summer, and energy-saving actions; (3) all the families in the two districts can be classified into two categories: Household Region M of much energy use, and Household Region N of little energy use. Adopting the aluminum window frames, large floor areas and the large number of family members (above 4 person) are the main reasons leading to more energy use in Household Region M, while the small number of family members (1-2 persons/household) and small floor areas are the main reasons resulting in the less energy use in Household Region N: the long period of space heating, using illumination as little as possible are also the reasons causing the differences in energy consumption quantities between the two categories, but their influences on the samples clustering are smaller than the main reasons above; (4) compared with the energy consumption in some developed countries, the ratio of space heating and cooling to total residential energy use is much smaller in Shanghai. Indoor thermal environment is very poor besides that. With the growth of economy and the improvement of living standard, people will have the higher requirement for good-quality indoor thermal environment, and hence space heaters and coolers will be used much more frequently, so the residential energy consumption in China will still continuously increase rapidly, if few energy conservation strategies are adopted; (5) considering current little prevalence of energy-saving actions with low efficiency, more effective energy-saving actions should be fully adopted in China.

AB The numerical simulator TOUGH+HYDRATE (T+H) was used to predict the transient pure methane hydrate (no sediment) dissociation data. X-ray computed tomography (CT) was used to visualize the methane hydrate formation and dissociation processes. A methane hydrate sample was formed from granular ice in a cylindrical vessel, and slow depressurization combined with thermal stimulation was applied to dissociate the hydrate sample. CT images showed that the water produced from the hydrate dissociation accumulated Lit the bottom of the vessel and increased the hydrate dissociation rate there. CT images were obtained during hydrate dissociation to confirm the radial dissociation of the hydrate sample. This radial dissociation process has implications for dissociation of hydrates in pipelines, suggesting lower dissociation times than for longitudinal dissociation. These observations were also confirmed by the numerical simulator predictions, which were in good agreement with the measured thermal data during hydrate dissociation. System pressure and sample temperature measured Lit the sample center followed the CH(4) hydrate L(w)+H+V equilibrium line during hydrate dissociation. The predicted cumulative methane gas production was within 5% of the measured data. Thus, this study validated our simulation approach and assumptions, which include stationary pure methane hydrate-skeleton, equilibrium hydrate-dissociation and heat- and mass-transfer in predicting hydrate dissociation in the absence of sediments. It should be noted that the application of T+H for the pure methane hydrate system (no sediment) is outside the general applicability limits of T+H.

ID DAIRY-INDUSTRY
AB The fluid-milk processing industry around the world processes approximately 60% of total raw milk production to create diverse fresh fluid-milk products. This paper reviews energy usage in existing global fluid-milk markets to identify baseline information that allows comparisons of energy performance of individual plants and systems. In this paper, we analyzed energy data compiled through extensive literature reviews on fluid-milk processing across a number of countries and regions. The study has found that the average final energy intensity of individual plants exhibited significant large variations, ranging from 0.2 to 12.6 MJ per kg fluid-milk product across various plants in different countries and regions. In addition, it is observed that while the majority of larger plants tended to exhibit higher energy efficiency, some exceptions existed for smaller plants with higher efficiency. These significant differences have indicated large potential energy-savings opportunities in the sector across many countries. Furthermore, this paper illustrates a positive correlation between implementing energy-monitoring programs and curbing the increasing trend in energy demand per equivalent fluid-milk product over time in the fluid-milk sector, and suggests that developing an energy-benchmarking framework, along with promulgating new policy options should be pursued for improving energy efficiency in global fluid-milk processing industry.

AB This paper employs the empirical mode decomposition (EMD) method to filter cyclical components of US quarterly gross domestic product (GDP) and quarterly average oil price (West Texas Intermediate-WTI). The method is adaptive and applicable to non-linear and non-stationary data. A correlation analysis of the resulting components is performed and examined for insights into the relationship between oil and the economy. Several components of this relationship are identified. However, the principal one is that the medium-run component of the oil price has a negative relationship with the main cyclical component of the GDR In addition, weak correlations suggesting a lagging, demand-driven component and a long-run component of the relationship were also identified. Comparisons of these findings with significant oil supply disruption and recession dates were supportive. The study identifies a number of lessons applicable to recent oil market events, including the eventuality of persistent oil price and economic decline following a long oil price run-up. In addition, it was found that oil market related exogenous events are associated with short- to medium-run price implications regardless of whether they lead to actual supply losses.

AB A decision framework for setting management goals for species at risk is presented. Species at risk are those whose potential future rarity is of concern. Listing these species as threatened or endangered could potentially result in significant restrictions to activities in resource management areas in order to maintain those species. The decision framework, designed to foster proactive management, has nine steps: identify species at risk on and near the management area, describe available information and potential information gaps for each species, determine the potential distribution of species and their habitat, select metrics for describing species status, assess the status of local population or metapopulation, conduct threat assessment, set and prioritize management goals, develop species management plans, and develop criteria for ending special species management where possible. This framework will aid resource managers in setting management goals that minimally impact human activities while reducing the likelihood that species at risk will become rare in the near future. The management areas in many of the examples are United States (US) military installations, which are concerned about potential restrictions to military training capacity if species at risk become regulated under the US Endangered Species Act. The benefits of the proactive management set forth in this formal decision framework are that it is impartial, provides a clear procedure, calls for identification of causal relationships that may not be obvious, provides a way to target the most urgent needs, reduces costs, enhances public confidence, and, most importantly, decreases the chance of species becoming more rare.

AB P>The bioremediation of uranium-contaminated sites is designed to stimulate the activity of microorganisms able to catalyze the reduction of soluble U(VI) to the less soluble mineral UO(2). U(VI) reduction does not necessarily support growth in previously studied bacteria, but it typically involves viable vegetative cells and the presence of an appropriate electron donor. We characterized U(VI) reduction by the sulfate-reducing bacterium Desulfotomaculum reducens strain MI-1 grown fermentatively on pyruvate and observed that spores were capable of U(VI) reduction. Hydrogen gas - a product of pyruvate fermentation - rather than pyruvate, served as the electron donor. The presence of spent growth medium was required for the process, suggesting that an unknown factor produced by the cells was necessary for reduction. Ultrafiltration of the spent medium followed by U(VI) reduction assays revealed that the factor's molecular size was below 3 kDa. Pre-reduced spent medium displayed short-term U(VI) reduction activity, suggesting that the missing factor may be an electron shuttle, but neither anthraquinone-2,6-disulfonic acid nor riboflavin rescued spore activity in fresh medium. Spores of D. reducens also reduced Fe(III)-citrate under experimental conditions similar to those for U(VI) reduction. This is the first report of a bacterium able to reduce metals while in a sporulated state and underscores the novel nature of the mechanism of metal reduction by strain MI-1.

AB River waters downstream of a hydroelectric project are often subject to rapidly changing discharge. Abrupt decreases in discharge can quickly dewater and expose some areas and isolate other areas from the main river channel, potentially stranding or entrapping fish, which often results in mortality. A methodology is described to estimate the areas dewatered or entrapped by a specific reduction in upstream discharge and applied in a case study. A one-dimensional hydrodynamic model was used to simulate steady flows. Using flow simulation results from the model and a geographic information system (GIS), estimates of dewatered and entrapped areas were made for a wide discharge range. The methodology was applied to the Hanford Reach of the Columbia River in central Washington State. Results showed that a 280 m(3)/s discharge reduction affected the most area at discharges less than 3400 m(3)/s. At flows above 3400 m(3)/S, the affected area by a 280 m(3)/s discharge reduction (about 25 ha) was relatively constant. A 280 m(3)/s discharge reduction at lower flows affected about twice as much area. The methodology and resulting area estimates have been used to identify discharge regimes, and associated water surface elevations, that might be expected to minimize adverse impacts on juvenile fall chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) that rear in the shallow near-shore areas in the Hanford Reach.

AB We collected indoor dust samples from homes in the Salinas Valley of California. Of 22 pesticides measured in 504 samples, permethrins and the organophosphate chlorpyrifos were present in highest amounts. In multivariate Tobit regression models among samples from 197 separate residences, reported agricultural uses of chlorpyrifos, a herbicide (2,3,5,6-tetrachloroterephthalate (DCPA)), and a fungicide (iprodione) on agricultural fields were significantly (p < 0.01) associated, with 83%, 19%, and 49% increases, respectively, in dust concentrations for each kg applied per day, near participant homes, in the month or season prior to sample collection. However, agricultural use of diazinon, which was 2.2 times that of chlorpyrifos, and of permethrin were not significantly associated with dust levels. Other variables independently associated with dust levels included temperature and rainfall, farmworkers storing work shoes in the home, storing a diazinon product in the home, housing density, having a home less clean, and having an air conditioner. Permethrins, chlorpyrifos, DCPA, and iprodione have either a log octanol-water partition coefficient (K(ow),) greater than 4.0, a very low vapor pressure, or both. Health risk assessments for pesticides that have these properties may need to include evaluation of exposures to house dust.

TI Microbial Architecture of Environmental Sulfur Processes: A Novel

AB Microbial oxidation of sulfur-rich mining waste materials drives acid mine drainage (AMD) and affects the global sulfur biogeochemical cycle. The generation of AMD is a complex, dynamic process that proceeds via multiple reaction pathways. The role of natural consortia of microbes in AMD generation, however, has received very little attention despite their widespread occurrence in mining environments. Through a combination of geochemical experimentation and modeling, scanning transmission X-ray microscopy, and fluorescent in situ hybridization, we show a novel interdependent metabolic arrangement of two ubiquitous and abundant AMD bacteria: chemoautotrophic sulfur-oxidizing Acidithiobacillus sp. and heterotrophic Acidiphilium sp. Highly reminiscent of anaerobic methane oxidation (AOM) consortia, these bacteria are spatially segregated within a planktonic macrostructure of extracellular polymeric substance in which they syntrophically couple sulfur oxidation and reduction reactions in a mutually beneficial arrangement that regenerates their respective sulfur substrates. As discussed here, the geochemical impacts of microbial metabolism are linked to the consortial organization and development of the pod structure, which affects cell-cell interactions and interactions with the surrounding geochemical microenvironment. If these pods are widespread in mine waters, echoing the now widespread discovery of ADM consortia, then AMD-driven CO(2) atmospheric fluxes from H(2)SO(4) carbonate weathering could be reduced by as much as 26 TgC/yr. This novel sulfur consortial discovery indicates that organized metabolically linked microbial partnerships are likely widespread and more significant in global elemental cycling than previously considered.

TI The evolutionary rate dynamically tracks changes in HIV-1 epidemics:
Application of a simple method for optimizing the evolutionary rate in
phylogenetic trees with longitudinal data
SO EPIDEMICS
LA English
DT Article
DE Viral evolution; Molecular epidemiology; Phylogeny; TreeRate
AB Large-sequence datasets provide an opportunity to investigate the dynamics of pathogen epidemics. Thus, a fast method to estimate the evolutionary rate from large and numerous phylogenetic trees becomes necessary. Based on minimizing tip height variances, we optimize the root in a given phylogenetic tree to estimate the most homogenous evolutionary rate between samples from at least two different time points. Simulations showed that the method had no bias in the estimation of evolutionary rates and that it was robust to tree rooting and topological errors. We show that the evolutionary rates of HIV-1 subtype B and C epidemics have changed over time, with the rate of evolution inversely correlated to the rate of virus spread. For subtype B, the evolutionary rate slowed down and tracked the start of the HAART era in 1996. Subtype C in Ethiopia showed an increase in the evolutionary rate when the prevalence increase markedly slowed down in 1995. Thus, we show that the evolutionary rate of HIV-1 on the population level dynamically tracks epidemic events. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB We present inelastic neutron scattering measurements of the dynamics of helium adsorbed on carbon nanotube bundles. The goal is to determine the vibrational properties of the 1D and 2D quantum solids that are stabilized on the nanotube bundle surfaces at different fillings of (4)He. The mean square vibrational amplitude in the 1D solid is large with a Lindemann ratio of gamma(1D) =(< u2 >)(1/2)/a(1) = 0.25 comparable to bulk solid (4)He. The gamma(2D) is significantly smaller. The frequency density of states of the 2D solid, g(omega), has a gap at omega similar or equal to 0.75 meV consistent with a commensurate lattice. The 1D solid has no gap or a gap smeared by disorder. The 1D and 2D g(omega) are well described by dispersion curves having no gap and a gap, respectively, with some vibration along additional dimensions indicated. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2009

AB A series of novel germanium(II) precursors was synthesized to initiate an investigation between the precursors' structures and the morphologies of the resulting nanoparticles. The precursors were synthesized from the reaction of Ge[N(SiMe(3))(2)](2) or [Ge(OtBu)(2)](2) and the appropriate ligand: N,N ''-dibenzylethylenediamine (H(2)-DBED), tert-butyl alcohol (H-OtBu), 2,6-dimethylphenol (H-DMP), 2,6-diphenylphenol (HDPP), tert-butyldimethylsilanol (H-DMBS), triphenylsilanol (H-TPS), triphenylsilanethiol (H-TPST), and benzenethiol (H-PS). The products were identified as: [Ge(mu(c)-DBED)](2) (1, mu(c) = bridging chelating), [Ge(mu-DMP)(DMP)](2) (2), Ge(DPP)(2) (3), [Ge(mu-OtBu)(DMBS)](2), (4), [Ge(mu-DMBS)(DMBS)](2) (5), Ge(TPS)(3)(H) (6), [Ge(mu-TPST)(TPST)](2) (7), and Ge(PS)(4) (8). The Ge(II) metal centers were found to adopt a pyramidal geometry for 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, a bent arrangement for 3, and a tetrahedral coordination for the Ge(IV) species 6 and 8. Using a simple solution precipitation methodology, Gel nanomaterials were isolated as dots and wires for the majority of precursors. Compound 7 led to the isolation of amorphous Ge(x)S(y) The nanomaterials isolated were characterized by TEM(t) EDS, and powder XRD. A correlation between the precursor's arrangement and final observed nanomorphology was proffered as part of the "precursor structure affect" phenomenon. ((C) Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

AB Excited states in the neutron-rich Ag-121,Ag-123,Ag-125 were studied via the fragmentation of a Xe-136 beam at 120MeV/nucleon in a thick Be-9 target. The levels in Ag-121 were populated in the beta decay of Pd-121 while those assigned to Ag-123,Ag-125 were identified via isomer spectroscopy. The transitions identified in Ag-121 are consistent with the gamma-rays reported in Ag-117,Ag-119. The newly observed transitions were placed in the level schemes of Ag-123,Ag-125 based on the analysis of gamma-gamma coincidences and the systematics. We attribute the onset of isomerism in the Ag-123,Ag-125 isotopes to the drop in energy of the negative-parity levels similar to the 5(-) state in the even-even Cd cores. The proposed level scheme for Ag-125 is well described by the NuShellX shell model calculations.

AB The decay of the extremely neutron-deficient isotope Fe-45 has been studied by using a new type of gaseous detector in which a technique of optical imaging is used to record tracks of charged particles. The two-proton radioactivity and the beta-decay channels were clearly identified. For the first time, the angular and energy correlations between two protons emitted from the Fe-45 ground state were measured. The obtained results were confronted with predictions of a three-body model.

ID NUCLEOSYNTHESIS; HRIBF
AB There are a number of astrophysical environments in which the path of nucleosynthesis proceeds through proton-rich nuclei. These nuclei have traditionally not been available as beams, and thus proton-capture reactions on these nuclei could only be studied indirectly. At the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility (HRIBF), some of the first direct measurements of (p,gamma) cross-sections on radioactive beams have been made. The Daresbury Recoil Separator (DRS) has been used to separate the recoils of interest from the unreacted primary beam and identify them in an isobutane-filled ionization counter. First data from (17)F(p,gamma) (18)Ne and (7)Be(p,gamma)(8)B measurements are presented.

ID HPGE CLOVER DETECTOR; NUCLEAR-DATA SHEETS; EXCITED STATE; TIGRESS;
MOMENT; NA-21
AB The low-energy structures of the radioactive nuclei Na-20,Na-21 have been examined using Coulomb excitation at the TRIUMF-ISAC radioactive ion beam facility. Beams of similar to 5 x 10(6) ions/s were accelerated to 1.7MeV/A and Coulomb excited in a 0.5 mg/cm(2) Ti-nat target. Two TIGRESS HPGe clover detectors perpendicular to the beam axis were used for.-ray detection, while scattered nuclei were observed by the Si detector BAMBINO. For Na-21, Coulomb excitation from the 3/2(+) ground state to the first excited 5/2(+) state was observed, while for Na-20, Coulomb excitation was observed from the 3/2(+) ground state to the first excited 3(+) and 4(+) states. For both beams, B(lambda L) values were determined using the 2(+) -> 0(+) de-excitation in Ti-48 as a reference. The resulting B(E2)down arrow value for Na-21 is 137 +/- 9 e(2)fm(4), while the resulting B(lambda L)down arrow values for Na-20 are 55 pi 6e(2)fm(4) for the 3(+) -> 2(+), 35.7 +/- 5.7 e(2) fm(4) for the 4(+)-> (2)+, and 0.154 +/- 0.030 mu N-2 for the 4+. 3+ transitions. This analysis significantly improves the measurement of the Na-21 B(E2) value, and provides the first experimental determination of B(lambda L) values for the proton dripline nucleus Na-20.

ID ISOMER SPECTROSCOPY; FRAGMENTATION; ISOTOPES; PB-208; STATES; U-238
AB Heavy neutron-rich nuclei have been populated through the relativistic fragmentation of a Pb-208(82) beam at E/A = 1 GeV on a 2.5 g/cm(2) thick Be target. The synthesised nuclei were selected and identified in-flight using the fragment separator at GSI. Approximately 300 ns after production, the selected nuclei were implanted in an similar to 8 mm thick perspex stopper, positioned at the centre of the RISING gamma-ray detector spectrometer array. A previously unreported isomer with a half-life T-1/2 = 163(5) ns has been observed in the N = 126 closed-shell nucleus Au-205(79). Through gamma-ray singles and gamma-gamma coincidence analysis a level scheme was established. The comparison with a shell model calculation tentatively identifies the spin-parity of the excited states, including the isomer itself, which is found to be I-pi = (19/2(+)).

AB Properties of strongly interacting, two-component finite Fermi systems are discussed within the recently developed coordinate-space Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) code HFB-AX. This solver is capable of treating the salient features of weakly bound and extremely deformed systems. Two illustrative examples are presented: i) neutron-rich deformed Mg isotopes, and ii) spin-polarized atomic condensates in a strongly deformed harmonic trap.

TI Likelihood functions for supersymmetric observables in frequentist

AB On the basis of frequentist analyses of experimental constraints from electroweak precision data, (g-2) (mu) , B-physics and cosmological data, we investigate the parameters of the constrained MSSM (CMSSM) with universal soft supersymmetry-breaking mass parameters, and a model with common non-universal Higgs masses (NUHM1). We present chi (2) likelihood functions for the masses of supersymmetric particles and Higgs bosons, as well as BR(b -> s gamma), BR(B (s) ->mu (+) mu (-)) and the spin-independent dark-matter scattering cross section, sigma (p) (SI) . In the CMSSM we find preferences for sparticle masses that are relatively light. In the NUHM1 the best-fit values for many sparticle masses are even slightly smaller, but with greater uncertainties. The likelihood functions for most sparticle masses are cut off sharply at small masses, in particular by the LEP Higgs mass constraint. Both in the CMSSM and the NUHM1, the coannihilation region is favored over the focus-point region at about the 3-sigma level, largely but not exclusively because of (g-2) (mu) . Many sparticle masses are highly correlated in both the CMSSM and NUHM1, and most of the regions preferred at the 95% C.L. are accessible to early LHC running, though high-luminosity running would be needed to cover the regions allowed at the 3-sigma levels. Some slepton and chargino/neutralino masses should be in reach at the ILC. The masses of the heavier Higgs bosons should be accessible at the LHC and the ILC in portions of the preferred regions in the (M (A) ,tan beta) plane. In the CMSSM, the likelihood function for BR(B (s) ->mu (+) mu (-)) is peaked close to the Standard Model value, but much larger values are possible in the NUHM1. We find that values of sigma (p) (SI) > 10(-10) pb are preferred in both the CMSSM and the NUHM1. We study the effects of dropping the (g-2) (mu) , BR(b -> s gamma), Omega (chi) h (2) and M (h) constraints, demonstrating that they are not in tension with the other constraints.

AB Using data taken by SELEX during the 1996-1997 fixed target run at Fermilab, we study the production of charmed hadrons on copper and carbon targets with Sigma(-), p, pi(-), and pi(+) beams. Parametrizing the dependence of the inclusive production cross section on the atomic number A as A(alpha), we determine alpha for D(+), D(0), D(s)(+), D(+)(2010), Lambda(+)(c), and their respective anti-particles, as a function of their transverse momentum p(t) and scaled longitudinal momentum x(F). Within our statistics there is no dependence of alpha on x(F) for any charm species for the interval 0.1 < x(F) < 1.0. The average value of alpha for charm production by pion beams is alpha(meson) = 0.850 +/- 0.028. This is somewhat larger than the corresponding average alpha(baryon) = 0.755 +/- 0.016 for charm production by baryon beams (Sigma(-), p).

AB We are completing the construction of GIANO, a high resolution near-infrared cryogenic spectrograph for the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo (TNG). Most of the optics are made of aluminium and operate at cryogenic temperature. We evaluated the optical degradation due to mis-matches between the thermal expansion coefficients of the different aluminium parts of the instrument. We performed accurate measurements of the relative thermal expansion coefficients (CTE) of Al-6061 and Al-6082 over the 300-77 K temperatures range. We find that the two alloys have identical thermal expansion coefficient within a maximum (3 sigma) uncertainty of Delta alpha/alpha < 0.28%. Our results show that it is possible to overcome the problem of the alignment of a cryogenic instrument, manufacturing the curved optics, the optics' holders and the optical bench with different metallic alloys with small CTE mismatch (Al-6061 and Al-6082). This conclusion has also been confirmed by the results of the optical tests with the instrument cooled in the laboratory, showing no significant image quality degradation.

AB Particle image velocimetry (PIV) data have been acquired using three different experimental configurations in the far-field of the interaction created by a transverse supersonic jet exhausting from a flat plate into a transonic crossflow. The configurations included two-component PIV in the centerline streamwise plane at two overlapping stations, as well as stereoscopic PIV in both the same streamwise plane and in the crossplane. All measurement planes intersected at a common line. Data from both two-component measurement stations and the stereoscopic streamwise configuration agreed to within the estimated uncertainty, but data from the crossplane exhibited reduced velocity and turbulent stress magnitudes by a small but significant degree. Subsequent reprocessing of the data in nominally the same manner using a newer software package brought all values into close agreement with each other, but produced substantially higher turbulent stresses. The error source associated with the choice of software was traced to the use of image deformation in the newer software to treat velocity gradients, which is shown by synthetic PIV tests to yield a more accurate result for turbulence measurements even for gradients within the recommended limits for classical PIV. These detailed comparisons of replicate data suggest that routine methods of uncertainty quantification used for a turbulent PIV experiment may not fully capture the actual error sources.

AB A mathematical model has been developed/updated to simulate the steady state and transient thermal-hydraulics of the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) divertor module. The model predicts the thermal response of the armour coating, divertor plate structural materials and coolant channels. The selected heat transfer correlations cover all operating conditions of ITER under both normal and off-normal situations. The model also accounts for the melting, vaporization, and solidification of the armour material. The developed model is to provide a quick benchmark of the HEIGHTS multidimensional comprehensive simulation package. The present model divides the coolant channels into a specified axial regions and the divertor plate into a specified radial zones, then a two-dimensional heat conduction calculation is created to predict the temperature distribution for both steady and transient states. The model is benchmarked against experimental data performed at Sandia National Laboratory for both bare and swirl tape coolant channel mockups. The results show very good agreements with the data for steady and transient states. The model is then used to predict the thermal behavior of the ITER plasma facing and structural materials due to plasma instability event where 60 MJ/m(2) plasma energy is deposited over 500 ms. The results for ITER divertor response is analyzed and compared with HEIGHTS results. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB A genome-wide association study of people with incident human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection selected from nine different cohorts identified allelic polymorphisms, which associated with either viral set point (HCP5 and 5' HLA-C) or with HIV disease progression (RNF39 and ZNRD1). To determine the influence of these polymorphisms on host control of HIV, we carried out a population-based association study. The analysis revealed complete linkage disequilibrium between HCP5 and HLA-B* 5701/HLA-Cw* 06, a modest effect of 5' HLA-C on viral set point in the absence of HLA-B* 5701, and no influence of the RNF39 /ZNRD1 extended haplotype on HIV disease progression. No correlation was found between the infection status and any of these genetic variants (P>0.1, Fisher's exact test). These findings suggest a pattern of strong linkage disequilibrium consistent with an HLA-B/-C haplotype block, making identification of a causal variant difficult, and underscore the importance of validating polymorphisms in putative determinants for host control by association analysis of independent populations.

AB Since its start, the Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC) has sought to provide at least one full-protein-coding sequence cDNA clone for every human and mouse gene with a RefSeq transcript, and at least 6200 rat genes. The MGC cloning effort initially relied on random expressed sequence tag screening of cDNA libraries. Here, we summarize our recent progress using directed RT-PCR cloning and DNA synthesis. The MGC now contains clones with the entire protein-coding sequence for 92% of human and 89% of mouse genes with curated RefSeq (NM-accession) transcripts, and for 97% of human and 96% of mouse genes with curated RefSeq transcripts that have one or more PubMed publications, in addition to clones for more than 6300 rat genes. These high-quality MGC clones and their sequences are accessible without restriction to researchers worldwide.

AB The wealth of genomic technologies has enabled biologists to rapidly ascribe phenotypic characters to biological substrates. Central to effective biological investigation is the operational definition of the process under investigation. We propose an elucidation of categories of biological characters, including disease relevant traits, based on natural enclogenous processes and experimentally observed biological networks, pathways and systems rather than on externally manifested constructs and current semantics such as disease names and processes. The Ontological Discovery Environment (ODE) is an Internet accessible resource for the storage, sharing, retrieval and analysis of phenotype-centered genomic data sets across species and experimental model systems. Any type of data set representing gene-phenotype relationships, such quantitative trait loci (QTL) positional candidates, literature reviews, microarray experiments, ontological or even meta-data, may serve as inputs. To demonstrate a use case leveraging the homology capabilities of ODE and its ability to synthesize diverse data sets, we conducted an analysis of genomic studies related to alcoholism. The core of ODE's gene set similarity, distance and hierarchical analysis is the creation of a bipartite network of gene-phenotype relations, a unique discrete graph approach to analysis that enables set-set matching of non-referential data. Gene sets are annotated with several levels of metadata, including community ontologies, while gene set translations compare models across species. Computationally derived gene sets are integrated into hierarchical trees based on gene-derived phenotype interdependencies. Automated set identifications are augmented by statistical tools which enable users to interpret the confidence of modeled results. This approach allows data integration and hypothesis discovery across multiple experimental contexts, regardless of the face similarity and semantic annotation of the experimental systems or species domain.

AB Refractory Ti-bearing minerals in the calcium-, aluminum-rich inclusion (CAI) Inti, recovered from the comet 81P/Wild 2 sample, were examined using analytical (scanning) transmission electron microscopy (STEM) methods including imaging, nano-diffraction, energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDX) and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS). Inti fassaite (Ca(Mg, Ti, Al) (Si, Al)(2)O(6)) was found to have a Ti(3+)/Ti(4+) ratio of 2.0 +/- 0.2, consistent with fassaite in other solar system CAIs. The oxygen fugacity (log f(O2)) of formation estimated from this ratio, assuming equilibration among phases at 1509 K, is -19.4 +/- 1.3. This value is near the canonical solar nebula value (-18.1 +/- 0.3) and in close agreement with that reported for fassaite-bearing Allende CAIs (-19.8 +/- 0.9) by other researchers using the same assumptions. Nanocrystals of osbornite (Ti(V)N), 2-40 nm in diameter, are embedded as inclusions within gehlenite, spinel and diopside in Inti. Vanadium is heterogeneously distributed within some osbornite crystals. Compositions range from pure TiN to Ti(0.36)V(0.64)N. The possible presence of oxide and carbide in solid solution with the osbornite was evaluated. The osbornite may contain O, but C is not present at detectable levels. The presence of osbornite, likely a refractory early condensate, together with the other refractory minerals in Inti, indicates that the parent comet contains solids that condensed closer to the proto-sun than the distance at which the parent comet itself accreted. The estimated oxygen fugacity and the reported isotopic and chemical compositions are consistent with Inti originating in the inner solar system like other meteoritic CAIs. These results provide insight for evaluating the validity of models of radial mass transport dynamics in the early solar system. The oxidation environments inferred for the Inti mineral assemblage are inconsistent with an X-wind formation scenario. In contrast, radial mixing models that allow accretion of components from different heliocentric distances can satisfy the observations from the cometary CAI Inti. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

AB We explore recent changes in tectonic plate velocities using a model of mantle flow that is based on a new high-resolution global tomography model derived from simultaneous inversions of global seismic, geodynamic and mineral physical data sets. This plate-coupled mantle convection model incorporates a viscosity structure that reconciles both glacial isostatic adjustment and global convection-related data sets. The convection model successfully reproduces present-day plate velocities and global surface gravity and topography constraints. We predict time-dependent changes in mantle buoyancy that give rise to present-day decelerations of several major plates, in particular the fast-moving Pacific and Nazca plates. We verify the plausibility of these predicted plate decelerations using space geodetic and oceanic magnetic anomaly constraints on tectonic plate motions. These plate kinematic constraints are employed to determine a new global map of present-day plate decelerations that agree well with the mantle flow predictions. Citation: Forte, A. M., R. Moucha, D.

AB Increased intensity in precipitation events and longer periods of water deficit are predicted as a general trend under future climate scenarios with potentially large effects on terrestrial ecosystem function. The primary objective of this study was to understand how variation in the intensity of precipitation inputs followed by intermittent soil drying events influence leaf and ecosystem carbon dioxide (CO(2)) and water exchange in a California annual grassland mesocosm experiment. We further examined how nitrogen (N) availability, and differences in plant community composition (grass-forb combinations) affected gas exchange responses to the precipitation treatments. Net ecosystem CO(2) exchange (NEE) and evapotranspiration (ET) increased significantly with greater precipitation and were positively correlated with soil moisture. A repeated 10-day soil drying period, following 11 days of watering, strongly depressed NEE over a range of annual precipitation totals (297, 657 and 987 mm), and plant community types. Ecosystem dark respiration (R(e)) and leaf level photosynthesis (A(max)) showed greater sensitivity to periods of soil drying in the low precipitation plots (297 mm). N additions significantly increased NEE and R(e), particularly as water availability was increased. Across the range of precipitation totals and plant community types, intermittent periods of soil moisture deficit and native soil N availability constrained leaf and ecosystem level CO(2) exchange, while the influence on water vapor exchange was less pronounced.

AB Two Arabidopsis xylosyltransferases, designated RGXT1 and RGXT2, were recently expressed in Baculovirus transfected insect cells and by use of the free sugar assay shown to catalyse transfer of D-xylose from UDP-alpha-D-xylose to L-fucose and derivatives hereof. We have now examined expression of RGXT1 and RGXT2 in Pichia pastoris and compared the two expression systems. Pichia transformants, expressing soluble, secreted forms of RGXT1 and RGXT2 with an N- or C-terminal Flag-tag, accumulated recombinant, hyper-glycosylated proteins at levels between 6 and 16 mg protein aEuro cent L(-1) in the media fractions. When incubated with 0.5 M L-fucose and UDP-D-xylose all four RGXT1 and RGXT2 variants catalyzed transfer of D-xylose onto L-fucose with estimated turnover numbers between 0.15 and 0.3 sec(-1), thus demonstrating that a free C-terminus is not required for activity. N- and O-glycanase treatment resulted in deglycosylation of all four proteins, and this caused a loss of xylosyltransferase activity for the C-terminally but not the N-terminally Flag-tagged proteins. The RGXT1 and RGXT2 proteins displayed an absolute requirement for Mn(2+) and were active over a broad pH range. Simple dialysis of media fractions or purification on phenyl Sepharose columns increased enzyme activities 2-8 fold enabling direct verification of the product formed in crude assay mixtures using electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. Pichia expressed and dialysed RGXT variants yielded activities within the range 0.011 to 0.013 U (1 U = 1 nmol conversion of substrate aEuro cent min(-1) aEuro cent A mu l medium(-1)) similar to those of RGXT1 and RGXT2 expressed in Baculovirus transfected insect Sf9 cells. In summary, the data presented suggest that Pichia is an attractive host candidate for expression of plant glycosyltransferases.

AB High-energy-density plasmas created in laser-fusion experiments are diagnosed with X-ray spectroscopy. Hans Griem, considered the father of modern plasma spectroscopy, provided an excellent foundation for this research. He studied the effect of plasma particles, in particular the fast-moving free electrons, on the Stark-broadening of spectral line shapes in plasmas [H. Griem, Phys. Rev. 125 (1962) 177]. Over the last three decades, X-ray spectroscopy has been used to record the remarkable progress made in inertial confinement fusion research. Four areas of X-ray spectroscopy for laser-fusion experiments are highlighted in this paper: K alpha emission spectroscopy to diagnose target preheat by suprathermal electrons, Stark-broadened K-shell emissions of mid-Z elements to diagnose compressed densities and temperatures of implosion cores, K- and L-shell absorption spectroscopy to diagnose the relatively cold imploding shell (the "piston") that does not emit X rays, and multispectral monochromatic imaging of implosions to diagnose core temperature and density profiles. The seminal research leading to the original X-ray spectroscopy experiments in these areas will be discussed and compared to current state-of-the-art measurements. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB We present measurements of the chlorine K-alpha emission from reduced mass targets, irradiated with ultra-high intensity laser pulses. Chlorinated plastic targets with diameters down to 50 pm and mass of a few 10(-8) g were irradiated with up to 7J of laser energy focused to intensities of several 10(19) W/cm(2). The conversion of laser energy to K-alpha radiation is measured, and high-resolution spectra that allow observation of line shifts are observed, indicating isochoric heating of the target up to 18 eV. A zero-dimensional 2-temperature equilibration model, combined with electron impact K-shell ionization and post processed spectra from collisional radiative calculations reproduces the observed K-alpha yields and line shifts, and shows the importance of target expansion due to the hot electron pressure.

AB The mixing between fuel and shell materials in Inertial Confinement Fusion (ICF) implosion cores is a current topic of interest. The goal of this work was to design direct drive ICF experiments which have varying levels of mix, and subsequently to extract information on mixing directly from the experimental data using spectroscopic techniques. The experimental design was accomplished using hydrodynamic simulations in conjunction with Haan's saturation model, which was used to predict the mix levels of candidate experimental configurations. These theoretical predictions were then compared to the mixing information which was extracted from the experimental data, and it was found that Haan's mix model predicted trends in the width of the mix layer as a function of initial shell thickness. These results contribute to an assessment of the range of validity and predictive capability of the Haan saturation model, as well as increasing confidence in the methods used to extract mixing information from experimental data.

AB The formation of shocks in plasmas created by short pulse laser irradiation (lambda=800 nm, I= 1 x 10(12) W cm(-2)) of semi-cylindrical cavities of different materials was studied combining visible and soft X-ray laser interferometry with simulations. The plasma rapidly converges near the axis to form a dense bright plasma focus. Later in time a long lasting bow shock is observed to develop outside the cavity, that is shown to arise from the collision of plasmas originating from within the cavity and the surrounding flat walls of the target. The shock is sustained for tens of nanoseconds by the continuous arrival of plasma ablated from the target walls. The plasmas created from the heavier target materials evolve more slowly, resulting in increased shock lifetimes. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We evaluated neuropathological findings in two studies of AAV2-GDNF efficacy and safety in naive aged (>20 years) or MPTP (1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine)-lesioned rhesus macaques. In the first study, a total of 17 animals received one of two doses of AAV2-GDNF into either putamen or substantia nigra (SN). To control for surgical variables, all animals received identical putaminal and nigral infusions in which phosphate-buffered saline was substituted for vector as appropriate. All 17 aged monkeys were studied for 6 months before necropsy. In a separate study, 11 MPTP-lesioned rhesus macaques with extensive lesions in the right SN and mild lesions in the left SN received bilateral infusions of AAV2-GDNF (9.9 x 10(11) vector genomes) or PBS into the putamen and were then studied for up to 14 months. In the current analysis, we addressed safety issues regarding AAV2-GDNF administration. An extensive series of assessments of in-life behavioral and clinical parameters was conducted. No overt histopathology or immune responses were detected in any experimental monkey. However, the delivery of AAV2-GDNF to the SN of aged monkeys caused a marked and significant loss of body weight (-19.4%). No weight loss was observed in the MPTP-lesioned monkeys despite bilateral axonal transport of glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF) to the SN from the putamen. These findings indicate that putaminal administration of AAV2-GDNF by convection-enhanced delivery shows therapeutic promise without any apparent side effects. Importantly, nigral administration of AAV2-GDNF caused significant weight loss that raises substantial concern for clinical application of this approach.

AB The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) sensor has provided valuable information on various aspects of the Earth System since March 2000. The spectral, spatial, and temporal characteristics of MODIS products have made them an important data source for analyzing key science questions relating to Earth System processes at regional, continental, and global scales. The size of the MODIS product and native HDF-EOS format are not optimal for use in field investigations at individual sites ( 100 100 km or smaller). In order to make MODIS data readily accessible for field investigations, the NASA-funded Distributed Active Archive Center (DAAC) for Biogeochemical Dynamics at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has developed an online system that provides MODIS land products in an easy-to-use format and in file sizes more appropriate to field research. This system provides MODIS land products data in a nonproprietary comma delimited ASCII format and in GIS compatible formats (GeoTIFF and ASCII grid). Web-based visualization tools are also available as part of this system and these tools provide a quick snapshot of the data. Quality control tools and a multitude of data delivery options are available to meet the demands of various user communities. This paper describes the important features and design goals for the system, particularly in the context of data archive and distribution for regional scale analysis. The paper also discusses the ways in which data from this system can be used for validation, data intercomparison, and modeling efforts.

AB Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) for structural health monitoring (SHM) applications can provide the data collection necessary for rapid structural assessment after an event such as a natural disaster puts the reliability of civil infrastructure in question. Technical challenges affecting deployment of such a network include ensuring power is maintained at the sensor nodes, reducing installation and maintenance costs, and automating the collection and analysis of data provided by a wireless sensor network.
In this work, a new "mobile host" WSN paradigm is presented. This architecture utilizes nodes that are deployed without resident power. The associated sensors operate on a mechanical memory principle. A mobile host, such as a robot or unmanned aerial vehicle, is used on an as-needed basis to charge the node by wireless power delivery and subsequently retrieve the data by wireless interrogation. The mobile host may be guided in turn to any deployed node that requires interrogation.
The contribution of this work is the first field demonstration of a mobile host wireless sensor network. The sensor node, referred to as THINNER, capable of collecting data wirelessly in the absence of electrical power was developed. A peak displacement sensor capable of interfacing with the THINNER sensor node was also designed and tested. A wireless energy delivery package capable of being carried by an airborne mobile host was developed. Finally, the system engineering required to implement the overall sensor network was carried out. The field demonstration took place on an out-of-service, full-scale bridge near Truth-or-Consequences, NM.

AB We have investigated experimentally direct current (dc) effects on high-frequency properties of two different permalloy (Py) submicrometer patterns of 0.24 mu m and 0.55 mu m width, 10 mu m length, and 100 nm thickness. The natural ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) frequencies for the two samples are about 8.5 and 11.5 GHz. A 50 mA dc produces a FMR frequency reduction of about 1 GHz in both samples. We extracted susceptibility spectra for the samples from the measurement data. We studied inductance variations of Py embedded transmission lines for different dc levels. With 50 mA dc, the operational frequencies of the inductances decreased by 9% and 12.5%. We also tested effects of magnetic fields generated by external magnets on the submicrometer patterns for comparison. To obtain the same magnetization rotation angle, the external magnetic field needs to be about five times larger than the Ampere field created by the direct current. This behavior is unique and may be associated with the increased thermal energy from the Joule heating effects.

TI Matching and Fairness in Threat-Based Mobile Sensor Coverage
SO IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON MOBILE COMPUTING
LA English
DT Article
DE Wireless sensor network; mobile application; distributed systems
AB Mobile sensors can be used to effect complete coverage of a surveillance area for a given threat over time, thereby reducing the number of sensors necessary. The surveillance area may have a given threat profile as determined by the kind of threat, and accompanying meteorological, environmental, and human factors. In planning the movement of sensors, areas that are deemed higher threat should receive proportionately higher coverage. We propose a coverage algorithm for mobile sensors to achieve a coverage that will match-over the long term and as quantified by an RMSE metric-a given threat profile. Moreover, the algorithm has the following desirable properties: 1) stochastic, so that it is robust to contingencies and makes it hard for an adversary to anticipate the sensor's movement, 2) efficient, and 3) practical, by avoiding movement over inaccessible areas. Further to matching, we argue that a fairness measure of performance over the shorter time scale is also important. We show that the RMSE and fairness are, in general, antagonistic, and argue for the need of a combined measure of performance, which we call efficacy. We show how a pause time parameter of the coverage algorithm can be used to control the trade-off between the RMSE and fairness, and present an efficient offline algorithm to determine the optimal pause time maximizing the efficacy. Finally, we discuss the effects of multiple sensors, under both independent and coordinated operation. Extensive simulation results-under realistic coverage scenarios-are presented for performance evaluation.

AB Silicon-germanium heterojunction bipolar transistor (SiGe HBT) heavy ion-induced current transients are measured using Sandia National Laboratories' microbeam and high- and low-energy broadbeam sources at the Grand Accelerateur National d'Ions Lourds, Caen, France, and the University of Jyvaskyla, Finland. The data were captured using a custom broadband IC package and real-time digital phosphor oscilloscopes with at least 16 GHz of analog bandwidth. These data provide detailed insight into the effects of ion strike location, range, and LET.

AB Direct charge collection measurements are presented, which prove that the presence of tungsten near sensitive volumes leads to extreme charge collection events through nuclear reactions. We demonstrate that, for a fixed incident particle linear energy transfer (LET), increasing particle energy beyond a certain point causes a decrease in nuclear reaction-induced charge collection. This suggests that a worst-case energy exists for single-event effect (SEE) susceptibility, which depends on the technology, device layout, and the incident ions' fixed LET value. A Monte Carlo approach for identifying the worst-case energy is applied to certain bulk-Si and silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technologies. Simulation results suggest that the decrease in charge collection beyond the worst-case energy occurs because the secondary particles produced from the high-energy nuclear reactions have less mass and higher energy and are therefore less ionizing than those produced by lower-energy reactions.

AB Gate-all-around MOSFETs were fabricated from single-crystal silicon nanowires as small as 500 angstrom across. The response to x-rays was measured for transistors with various gate oxide thicknesses, a variety of physical designs, and several different electric fields during irradiation. While the devices are otherwise very well behaved, the total dose degradation is larger than expected and is attributable to thicker, non-uniform gate oxide grown on non-(100) Si surfaces of the nanowires.

AB We characterize by different spectroscopic techniques the radiation effects on ytterbium-(Yb) and ytterbium/erbium (Yb/Er)-doped optical fibers. Their vulnerability to the environment of outer space is evaluated through passive radiation-induced attenuation (RIA) measurements during and after exposure to 10 keV X-rays, 1 MeV gamma-rays, and 105 MeV protons. These fibers present higher levels of RIA (1000 x) than telecommunication-type fibers. Measured RIA is comparable for gamma-rays and protons and is on the order of 1 dB/m at 1.55 mu m after a few tenths of a kilorad. Their host matrix codoped with aluminum (Al) and/or phosphorus (P) is mainly responsible for their enhanced radiation sensitivity. Thanks to the major improvements of the Er-doped glass spectroscopic properties in case of Yb-codoping, Yb/Er-doped fibers appear as very promising candidates for outer space applications. In the infrared part of the spectrum, losses in P-codoped Yb-doped fibers are due to the P(1) center that absorbs around 1.6 mu m and are very detrimental for the operation of Er-codoped devices in a harsh environment. The negative impact of this defect seems reduced in the case of Al and P-codoping.

The heavy-ion charge yield was determined by comparing the voltage shifts of MOSFET transistors irradiated with 10-keV X-rays and several different heavy ions. The obtained charge yield for the heavy ions is in average nearly an order of magnitude lower than for the X-rays for the entire range of measured electric fields.

AB The feasibility of developing an embeddable silicon-on-insulator (SOI) buried oxide MOS dosimeter (RadFET) has been demonstrated. This dosimeter takes advantage of the inherent properties for radiation-induced charge buildup in the buried oxides of commercial SOI wafers. Discrete SOI buried oxide RadFETs and fully-functional read-out circuitry have been fabricated in Sandia's CMOS7 radiation-hardened SOI technology. Discrete RadFETs have been irradiated under various radiation conditions and subjected to post-irradiation anneals. Data show only a small dose rate dependence and less than a 10% annealing or fade of the dosimeters output characteristics when irradiated with all pins shorted. These results show less fade than dual-dielectric RadFETs irradiated under the same bias conditions and support the use of SOI buried oxide RadFETs for low dose rate applications. Read-out circuitry has also been designed and fabricated to monitor changes in the "off" state leakage current induced by radiation-induced charge buildup in the buried oxide dosimeter. The analog-to-digital output from the read-out circuit changes linearly with the "off" state leakage current. Preliminary radiation characterizations of the read-out circuitry show no spurious effects of radiation-induced charge buildup in the read-out circuitry on the dosimeter output. These results indicate it is feasible to develop an embeddable SOI buried oxide RadFET as an attractive choice for many low power, low dose rate applications requiring real-time knowledge of total ionizing dose radiation levels.

AB We investigate, for the first time, the potential for SEE mitigation of a newly-developed device architecture in a 3rd generation high-speed SiGe platform. This new device architecture is termed the "inverse-mode cascode SiGe HBT" and is comprised of two standard devices sharing a buried subcollector and operated in a cascode configuration. Verification of the TID immunity is demonstrated using 10 keV X-rays, while an investigation of the SEE susceptibility is performed using a 36 MeV(16)O ion. IBICC results show strong sensitivities to device bias with only marginal improvement when compared to a standard device; however, by providing a conductive path from the buried subcollector (C-Tap) to a voltage potential, almost all collected charge is induced on the C-Tap terminal instead of the collector terminal. These results are confirmed using full 3-D TCAD simulations which also provides insight into the physics of this new RHBD device architecture. The implications of biasing the C-Tap terminal in a circuit context are also addressed.

AB We investigate a novel implementation of junction isolation to harden a 200 GHz SiGe: C HBT technology without deep trench isolation against single event effects. The inclusion of isolation is shown to have no effect on the dc or ac performance of the nominal device, and likewise does not reduce the HBTs inherent tolerance to TID radiation exposure on the order of a Mrad. A 69% reduction in total integrated charge collection across a slice through the center of the device was achieved. In addition, a 26% reduction in collected charge is reported for strikes to the center of the emitter. 3-D NanoTCAD simulations are performed on RHBD and control device models yielding a good match to measured results for strikes from the emitter center to 8 mu m away. This result represents one of the most effective transistor layout-level RHBD approaches demonstrated to date in SiGe.

AB The radiation response of lateral power MOSFETs in total dose and energetic particle environments is explored. Results indicate that lateral power MOSFETs can be quite susceptible to single-event burnout. Tradeoffs involved in developing radiation hardened lateral power MOSFETs for point-of-load applications are studied using experiments and device simulations. Both design and fabrication process techniques can be used to significantly improve the single-event effect performance of lateral power MOSFETs, but the trade space between electrical and radiation performance must be carefully considered to produce an optimized design for point-of-load applications.

AB We investigate the single-event transient (SET) response of bandgap voltage references (BGRs) implemented in SiGe BiCMOS technology through heavy ion microbeam experiments. The SiGe BGR circuit is used to provide the input reference voltage to a voltage regulator. SiGe HBTs in the BGR circuit are struck with 36-MeV oxygen ions, and the subsequent transient responses are captured at the output of the regulator. Sensitive devices responsible for generating transients with large peak magnitudes (more than 5% of the dc output voltage) are identified. To determine the effectiveness of a transistor-layout-based radiation hardened by design (RHBD) technique with respect to immunity to SETs at the circuit level, the BGR circuit implemented with HBTs surrounded by an alternate reverse-biased junction (n-ring RHBD) is also bombarded with oxygen ions, and subsequent SETs are captured. Experimental results indicate that the number of events causing transients with peak magnitude more than 5% above the dc level have been reduced in the RHBD version; however, with the inclusion of the n-ring RHBD, new locations for the occurrence of transients (albeit with smaller peak magnitude) are created. Transients at the transistor-level are also independently captured and are presented. It is demonstrated that while the transients are short at the transistor level (ns duration), relatively long transients are obtained at the circuit level (hundreds of nanoseconds). In addition, the impact of the SET response of the BGR on the performance of an ultra-high-speed 3-bit SiGe analog-to-digital converter (ADC) is investigated through simulation. It is shown that ion-induced transients in the reference voltage could eventually lead to data corruption at the output of the ADC.

AB Experimental results are presented on single-bit-upsets (SBU) and multiple-bit-upsets (MBU) on a 45 nm SOI SRAM. The accelerated testing results show the SBU-per-bit cross section is relatively constant with technology scaling but the MBU cross section is increasing. The MBU data show the importance of acquiring and analyzing the data with respect to the location of the multiple-bit upsets since the relative location of the cells is important in determining which MBU upsets can be corrected with error correcting code (ECC) circuits. For the SOI SRAMs, a large MBU orientation effect is observed with most of the MBU events occurring along the same SRAM bit-line; allowing ECC circuits to correct most of these MBU events.

AB This paper investigates the viability of deploying SRAM-based FPGAs into harsh Earth-orbit environments. A reliability model is presented for estimating the of SRAM FPGA designs in specific orbits and orbit conditions. The model requires orbit-and condition-specific SEU rates and design-specific estimates of the probability of failure during a single scrubbing period. Probability of failure estimates are reported for several FPGA designs from both fault-injection and accelerator experiments. The model also includes a method for estimating composite mean time to failure (MTTF) that incorporates all orbit conditions over a solar cycle. Despite using pessimistic assumptions, the results from this model suggest that SRAM FPGA designs protected by TMR and scrubbing operate very reliably in a LEO orbit and surprisingly well in "harsh" orbits.

AB In Xilinx Field Programmable Gate Arrays two types of logical constants, implicit and explicit, are used to prevent unspecified signals from floating. Implicit logical constants are implemented with a weak keeper circuit, called a half latch, and are used to tie off unspecified input signals to user flip-flops. Explicit logical constants in the earlier devices are implemented using look up tables (LUTs) set to a constant value (constant LUTs) and in the newer devices are implemented using posts that provide access to the ground plane. Explicit logical constants often are used in adders and multipliers. In this paper, we will present radiation test data and analysis of the three types of logical constants.

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

ID FILTER
AB The time series of data from a Radiation Portal Monitor (RPM) system are evaluated for the presence of point sources by isolating the contribution of anomalous radiation. Energy-windowed background spectra taken from the RPM are compared with the observed spectra at each time step during a vehicle drive-through. The total signal is turned into a "spectral distance" index using this method. This provides a time series with reduced systematic fluctuations due to background attenuation by the vehicle, and allows for point source detection by time-series analyses. The anomalous time series is reanalyzed by using a wavelet filter function of similar size to the expected source profile. A number of real drive-through data sets taken at a U. S. port of entry are analyzed in this way. A set of isotopes are injected into the data set, and the resultant "benign" and "injected" data sets are analyzed with gross-counting, spectral-ratio, and time-based algorithms. Spectral and time methods together offer a significant increase to detection performance.

AB The timely and accurate detection of nuclear contraband is an extremely important problem of national security. The development of a prototype sequential Bayesian processor that incorporates the underlying physics of gamma-ray emissions and the measurement of photon energies and their interarrival times that offers a physics-based approach to attack this challenging problem is described. A basic radionuclide representation in terms of its gamma-ray energies along with photon interarrival times is used to extract the physics information available from the uncertain measurements. It is shown that not only does this approach lead to a physics-based structure that can be used to develop an effective threat detection technique, but also motivates the implementation of this approach using advanced sequential Monte Carlo processors or particle filters to extract the required information. The resulting processor is applied to experimental data to demonstrate its feasibility.

AB The scintillation properties and time-resolved spectroscopy results for Li3Lu(PO4)(2): Ce-a new Ce3+-activated crystalline scintillator have been determined. This material contains stoichiometric amounts of Li, and can be synthesized either with the use of Li-6-enriched or Li-6-depleted isotopes, for achieving thermal neutron sensitivity or x-ray/gamma-ray detection without neutron sensitivity, respectively. The scintillation of Li3Lu(PO4)(2):Ce is based on the Ce3+-activator UV (336 and 360 nm) emission, and for a 2 wt.% activation level and gamma ray photon excitation, it exhibits a light yield of about 5300 photons/MeV and a decay time constant of 24.7 ns-with no longer component observed in the time range up to 2 mu s. Host emissions, while present for some specific excitations in the region of the bandgap energy, do not appear to play a significant role in the material's scintillation that is most probably accomplished by the consecutive capture and recombination of free band holes and electrons on the activator ions.

A new multigrid (MG) method is developed and implemented to speed up the simulations and allow larger domains to be simulated in a practical amount of time. The first study considers how different flowing ion distributions affect the current measurements at a planar Faraday probe surface. The second study considers variations of the standard probe technique and includes varying a uniform bias voltage and varying the guard-ring bias relative to the collecting surface bias. These studies indicate that the standard Faraday probe technique is very robust, and measurements accurately reflect the ion current for a broad range of conditions. The new MG method obtains an overall speedup slightly better than a factor of two, enabling a study of a reversed Faraday probe configuration. This study indicates that the plasma flow behind a reversed probe has strong gradients and complex structure. It is recommended that the probe-body potential should be allowed to float, in order to minimize the focusing effects of sheaths along the side of the probe.

AB There is a growing recognition within the visual analytics community that interaction and inquiry are inextricable. It is through the interactive manipulation of a visual interface - the analytic discourse - that knowledge is constructed, tested, refined and shared. This article reflects on the interaction challenges raised in the visual analytics research and development agenda and further explores the relationship between interaction and cognition. It identifies recent exemplars of visual analytics research that have made substantive progress toward the goals of a true science of interaction, which must include theories and testable premises about the most appropriate mechanisms for human-information interaction. Seven areas for further work are highlighted as those among the highest priorities for the next 5 years of visual analytics research: ubiquitous, embodied interaction; capturing user intentionality; knowledge-based interfaces; collaboration; principles of design and perception; interoperability; and interaction evaluation. Ultimately, the goal of a science of interaction is to support the visual analytics and human-computer interaction communities through the recognition and implementation of best practices in the representation and manipulation of visual displays.

AB The challenge of visually communicating analysis results is central to the ability of visual analytics tools to support decision making and knowledge construction. The benefit of emerging visual methods will be improved through more effective exchange of the insights generated through the use of visual analytics. This article outlines the major requirements for next-generation reporting systems in terms of eight major research needs: the development of best practices, design automation, visual rhetoric, context and audience, connecting analysis to presentation, evidence and argument, collaborative environments and interactive and dynamic documents. It also describes an emerging technology called Active Products that introduces new techniques for analytic process capture and dissemination.

AB Five years after the science of visual analytics was formally established, we attempt to use two different studies to assess the current state of the community and evaluate the progress the community has made in the past few years. The first study involves a comparison analysis of intellectual and scholastic accomplishments recently made by the visual analytics community with two other visualization communities. The second study aims to measure the degree of community reach and internet penetration of visual-analytics-related resources. This article describes our efforts to harvest the study data, conduct analysis and make interpretations based on parallel comparisons with five other established computer science areas.

AB Visual analytics has seen unprecedented growth in its first 5 years of mainstream existence. Great progress has been made in a short time, yet significant challenges must be met in the next decade to provide new technologies that will be widely accepted throughout the world. This article explains some of those challenges in an effort to provide a stimulus for research, both basic and applied, that can realize or even exceed the potential envisioned for visual analytics technologies. We start with a brief summary of the initial challenges, followed by a discussion of the initial driving domains and applications. These are followed by a selection of additional applications and domains that have been a part of recent rapid expansion of visual analytics usage. We then look at the common characteristics of several tools illustrating emerging visual analytics technologies and conclude with the top 10 challenges for the field of study. We encourage feedback and continued participation by members of the research community, the wide array of user communities and private industry.

AB Provisional Advisory Levels (PALs) are concentrations in air and drinking water for priority toxic chemicals. This article summarizes the Standing Operating Procedure (SOP) currently in place for the data-driven development of chemical-specific PALs. To provide consistency and transparency, and to avoid faults of arbitrariness, the SOP was developed for guidance in deriving PAL values. Three levels (PAL 1, PAL 2, and PAL 3), distinguished by severity of toxic effects, are developed for 24-hour, 30-day, 90-day, and 2-year durations of potential drinking water and inhalation exposures for the general public. The SOP for PAL development focuses on (1) data acquisition and analysis, (2) identification of a chemical-specific critical effect, (3) selection of a quantitative point-of-departure (POD), (4) uncertainty analysis and adjustments, (5) exposure duration adjustment and extrapolation, (6) identification of special concerns and issues, and (7) verification, documentation, and dissemination of PALs. To avoid uncompromising rigidity in deriving PAL values and to allow for incorporation of new or refined methodologies, the overall procedure is fluid and subject to modification. The purpose of this publication is to provide a summary of this SOP.

DE PAL; Emergency Planning; inhalation; drinking water
AB The Homeland Security Presidential Directive #8 (HSPD-8) for National Emergency Preparedness was issued to "establish policies to strengthen the preparedness of the United States to prevent and respond to threatened or actual domestic terrorist attacks, major disasters, and other emergencies by requiring a national domestic all-hazards preparedness goal...." In response to HSPD-8 and HSPD-22 (classified) on Domestic Chemical Defense, the US Environmental Protection Agency (US EPA) National Homeland Security Research Center (NHSRC) is developing health-based Provisional Advisory Levels (PALs) for priority chemicals (including chemical warfare agents, pesticides, and toxic industrial chemicals) in air and drinking water. PALs are temporary values that will neither be promulgated, nor be formally issued as regulatory guidance. They are intended to be used at the discretion of risk managers in emergency situations. The PAL Program provides advisory exposure levels for chemical agents to assist in emergency planning and response decision-making, and to aid in making informed risk management decisions for evacuation, temporary re-entry into affected areas, and resumed-use of infrastructure, such as water resources. These risk management decisions may be made at the federal, state, and local levels. Three exposure levels (PAL 1, PAL 2, and PAL 3), distinguished by severity of toxic effects, are developed for 24-hour, 30-day, 90-day, and 2-year durations for potential exposure to drinking water and ambient air by the general public. Developed PALs are evaluated both by a US EPA working group, and an external multidisciplinary panel to ensure scientific credibility and wide acceptance. In this Special Issue publication, we present background information on the PAL program, the methodology used in deriving PALs, and the technical support documents for the derivation of PALs for acrylonitrile, hydrogen sulfide, and phosgene.

Three levels (PAL 1, PAL 2, and PAL 3), distinguished by severity of toxic effects, are developed for 24-hour, 30-day, 90-day, and 2-year durations of potential drinking water and inhalation exposures for the general public. For background on the PAL Program and a description of the methodology used in deriving PALs, the reader is referred to accompanying papers in this Supplement. Human data were limited to inhalation exposures. The animal experimental data set for this chemical was robust for inhalation and oral studies, with the exception of appropriate data for inhalation 30-day, 90-day, and 2-year PAL 3 values. PAL estimates were approved by the Expert Consultation Panel for Provisional Advisory Levels in October 2007. Oral 24-hour PALs for acrylonitrile are PAL 1 = 7 mg/L; PAL 2 = 23 mg/L; and PAL 3 = 88 mg/L. Oral 30-day and 90-day PALs are PAL 1 = 0.35 mg/L; PAL 2 = 7 mg/L; and PAL 3 = 17 mg/L. Oral 2-year PALs are PAL 1 = 0.35 mg/L; PAL 2 = 3.5 mg/L; and PAL 3 = 12 mg/L. Acrylonitrile inhalation PAL values for 24-hour exposure are PAL 1 = 0.17 ppm; PAL 2 = 3.5 ppm; and PAL 3 = 5.1 ppm; the 30-day and 90-day inhalation exposure values are PAL 1 = 0.15 ppm and PAL 2 = 0.60 ppm. The 2-year inhalation values are PAL 1 = 0.014 ppm and PAL 2 = 0.12 ppm. PAL 3 values for 30 days, 90 days, and 2 years are not recommended due to insufficient data.

The database of animal studies is substantial, covering multiple species and addressing acute, repeated, and subchronic exposure scenarios. PAL estimates were approved by the Expert Consultation Panel for Provisional Advisory Levels in November 2006. No reliable data were found on oral exposure, making it impractical to estimate PALs for drinking water. Because H 2 S exists as a gas, partitioning to air is likely to occur with an environmental release. H,S inhalation PAL values for 24-hour exposure are PAL 1 = 1.2 ppm; PAL 2 = 7.0 ppm; and PAL 3 = 27 ppm; the 30-day and 90-day inhalation exposure values are PAL 1 = 0.85 ppm and PAL 2 = 3.0 ppm. PAL 3 values for 30-day and 90-day exposures are not recommended due to insufficient data. Long-term data were insufficient to estimate 2-year inhalation PALs.

AB The Provisional Advisory Level (PAL) protocol was applied to estimate inhalation exposure limits for phosgene (CG). Three levels (PAL 1, PAL 2, and PAL 3), distinguished by severity of toxic effects, are developed for 24-hour, 30-day, 90-day, and 2-year durations of potential drinking water and inhalation exposures for the general public. For background on the PAL program and a description of the methodology used in deriving PALs, the reader is referred to accompanying papers in this Supplement. Data on humans are limited to occupational exposures or accounts from the use of phosgene as a chemical warfare agent in World War I. Animal studies with phosgene show a steep dose-response curve for pulmonary edema and mortality, with little species variability in effects. Although immediately upon exposure lacrimation and upper respiratory irritation can occur, the main effect in the target organ, a progressive pulmonary edema, occurs after a latency period of 1-24 hours. PAL estimates were approved by the Expert Consultation Panel for Provisional Advisory Levels in May 2007. Exposure limits for oral exposure to CG are not developed due to insufficient data. PAL estimates for inhalation exposure to CG are presented: The 24-hour PAL values for severity levels 1, 2, and 3 are 0.0017, 0.0033 and 0.022 ppm, respectively. The 30- and 90-day PAL values are 0.0006 and 0.0012 ppm for the PAL I and 2 values, respectively. These inhalation values were also accepted as the 2-year PAL I and 2 values because severity of lesions in the key study did not increase when exposures were extended from 4 weeks to 12 weeks. Data were not available for deriving 30-day, 90-day, and 2-year PAL 3 values.

AB The ability of lasers to carry out drilling processes in silicon carbide ceramic was investigated in this study. A JK 701 pulsed Nd:YAG laser was used for drilling through the entire depth of silicon carbide plates of different thicknesses. The laser parameters were varied in different combinations for a well-controlled drilling through the entire thickness of the SiC plates. A drilling model incorporating effects of various physical phenomena such as decomposition, evaporation-induced recoil pressure, and surface tension was developed. Such comprehensive model was capable of advance prediction of the energy and time required for drilling a hole through any desired depth of material.

AB P>Testicular germ cell tumors are comprised of two histologic groups, seminomas and non-seminomas. We postulated that the possible divergent pathogeneses of these histologies may be partially explained by variable levels of net endogenous DNA damage. To test our hypothesis, we conducted a case-case analysis of 51 seminoma and 61 non-seminoma patients using data and specimens from the Familial Testicular Cancer study and the U.S. Radiologic Technologists cohort. A lymphoblastoid cell line was cultured for each patient and the alkaline comet assay was used to determine four parameters: tail DNA, tail length, comet distributed moment (CDM) and Olive tail moment (OTM). Odds ratios (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were estimated using logistic regression. Values for tail length, tail DNA, CDM and OTM were modelled as categorical variables using the 50th and 75th percentiles of the seminoma group. Tail DNA was significantly associated with non-seminoma compared with seminoma (OR(50th percentile) = 3.31, 95% CI: 1.00, 10.98; OR(75th percentile) = 3.71, 95% CI: 1.04, 13.20; p for trend = 0.039). OTM exhibited similar, albeit statistically non-significant, risk estimates (OR(50th percentile) = 2.27, 95% CI: 0.75, 6.87; OR(75th percentile) = 2.40, 95% CI: 0.75, 7.71; p for trend = 0.12) whereas tail length and CDM showed no association. In conclusion, the results for tail DNA and OTM indicate that net endogenous levels are higher in patients who develop non-seminoma compared with seminoma. This may partly explain the more aggressive biology and younger age-of-onset of this histologic subgroup compared with the relatively less aggressive, later-onset seminoma.

AB A motor control strategy for an input-split hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is proposed. From a power characteristic analysis, it is found that the powertrain efficiency decreases for speed ratios at which power circulation occurs. Using dynamic models of an input-split HEV powertrain, a motor-generator control algorithm for obtaining high system efficiency is designed by inversion-based control. The performance of the control algorithm is evaluated by the simulator which is developed based on PSAT, and simulation results are compared with the test results. It is found that, even if the engine thermal efficiency is sacrificed by moving the engine operation point from the OOL for the control strategy, improved overall powertrain system efficiency can be achieved by the engine operation that gives a relatively high efficiency from the viewpoint of the overall powertrain efficiency. The control algorithm developed can be used in design of future electric vehicles.

AB Finding the failure rate of a system is a crucial step in high performance computing systems analysis. To deal with this problem, a fault tolerant mechanism, called checkpoint/restart technique, was introduced. However, there are additional costs to perform this mechanism. Thus, we propose two models for different schemes (full and incremental checkpoint schemes). The models which are based on the reliability of the system are used to determine the checkpoint placements. Both proposed models consider a balance of between checkpoint overhead and the re-computing time. Due to the extra costs from each incremental checkpoint during the recovery period, a method to find the number of incremental checkpoints between two consecutive full checkpoints is given. Our simulation suggests that in most cases our incremental checkpoint model can reduce the waste time more than it is reduced by the full checkpoint model. The waste times produced by both models are in the range Of 2% to 28% of the application completion time depending on the checkpoint overheads.

industry in the US

DT Article
DE Carbon dioxide capture and storage; Coal-to-liquids; Oil shale; Climate
change; United States; Unconventional fossil fuels production
AB Desires to enhance the energy security of the United States have spurred renewed interest in the development of abundant domestic heavy hydrocarbon resources including oil shale and coal to produce unconventional liquid fuels to supplement conventional oil supplies. However, the production processes for these unconventional fossil fuels create large quantities of carbon dioxide (CO2) and this remains one of the key arguments against such development. Carbon dioxide capture and storage (CCS) technologies could reduce these emissions and preliminary analysis of regional CO2 storage capacity in locations where such facilities might be sited within the U.S. indicates that there appears to be sufficient storage capacity, primarily in deep saline formations, to accommodate the CO2 from these industries. Nevertheless, even assuming wide-scale availability of cost-effective CO2 capture and geologic storage resources, the emergence of a domestic U.S. oil shale or coal-to-liquids (CTL) industry would be responsible for significant increases in CO2 emissions to the atmosphere. The authors present modeling results of two future hypothetical climate policy scenarios that indicate that the oil shale production facilities required to produce 3 MMB/d from the Eocene Green River Formation of the western U.S. using an in situ retorting process would result in net emissions to the atmosphere of between 3000 and 7000 MtCO(2), in addition to storing potentially 900-5000 MtCO(2) in regional deep geologic formations via CCS in the period up to 2050. A similarly sized, but geographically more dispersed domestic CTL industry could result in 4000-5000 MtCO(2) emitted to the atmosphere in addition to potentially 21,00022,000 MtCO(2) stored in regional deep geologic formations over the same period. While this analysis shows that there is likely adequate CO2 storage capacity in the regions where these technologies are likely to deploy, the reliance by these industries on large-scale CCS could result in an accelerated rate of utilization of the nation's CO2 storage resource, leaving less high-quality storage capacity for other carbon-producing industries including electric power generation.

The purpose of the experiment was to simulate possible leakage scenarios from a carbon capture and storage operation in order to further develop and verify monitoring technologies used to characterize and quantify the release of CO2. The project included collaboration with several research groups and organizations. Presented here are the results of soil-gas monitoring conducted by researchers from the National Energy Technology Laboratory, including CO2 flux measurement, soil-gas analysis, perfluorocarbon tracer monitoring, and soil resistivity measurements. Together, these methods proved to be effective in detecting and characterizing leakage in the near-surface. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Industrial-scale injection of CO2 into saline formations in sedimentary basins will cause large-scale fluid pressurization and migration of native brines, which may affect valuable groundwater resources overlying the deep sequestration aquifers. In this paper, we discuss how such basin-scale hydrogeologic impacts (I) may reduce current storage capacity estimates, and (2) can affect regulation of CO2 storage projects. Our assessment arises from a hypothetical future carbon sequestration scenario in the Illinois Basin, which involves twenty individual CO2 Storage projects (sites) in a core injection area most suitable for long-term storage. Each project is assumed to inject five million tonnes of CO2 per year for 50 years. A regional-scale three-dimensional simulation model was developed for the Illinois Basin that captures both the local-scale CO2-brine flow processes and the large-scale groundwater flow patterns in response to CO2 storage. The far-field pressure buildup predicted for this selected sequestration scenario support recent studies in that environmental concerns related to near- and far-field pressure buildup may be a limiting factor on CO2 storage capacity. In other words, estimates of storage capacity, if solely based on the effective pore volume available for safe trapping of CO2, may have to be revised based on assessments of pressure perturbations and their potential impacts on caprock integrity and groundwater resources. Our results suggest that (1) the area that needs to be characterized in a permitting process may comprise a very large region within the basin if reservoir pressurization is considered, and (2) permits cannot be granted on a single-site basis alone because the near- and far-field hydrogeologic response may be affected by interference between individual storage sites. We also discuss some of the challenges in making reliable predictions of large-scale hydrogeologic impacts related to CO2 sequestration projects. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB The catalytic performance of Ni dispersed on ceria-doped supports, (Ce(0.88)La(0.12)) O(2-x), (Ce(0.91)Gd(0.09)) O(2-x), (Ce(0.71)Gd(0.29)) O(2-x), (Ce(0.56)Zr(0.44)) O(2-x) and pure ceria, was tested for the catalytic partial oxidation of Methane (CPOX). The catalysts were characterized by Brunauer Emmett Teller (BET), X-ray diffraction (XRD), temperature programmed reduction (TPR) and temperature programmed oxidation (TPO). Ni/ (Ce(0.56)Zr(0.44)) O(2-x) showed higher Hydrogen production than the Ni/Gadolinium-doped catalysts, which may be due to its higher reducibility and surface area. By enhancing the support reducibility in Ni/doped-ceria catalysts, their catalytic activity is promoted because the availability of surface lattice oxygen is increased, which can participate in the formation of CO and H(2). It was also found that Ni/(Ce(0.56)Zr(0.44)) O(2-x) showed higher catalytic performance after redox pretreatments. Similarly, a higher amount of H2 or 02 was consumed during hydrogenation and oxidation pretreatments, respectively. This may be correlated to re-dispersion of metallic particles and changes on the metal-support interface. In addition, it was observed that the ionic conductivity of Ni/(Ce(0.56)Zr(0.44)) O(2-x) had an effect on the amount of carbon formed during the CPOX reaction at oxygen concentrations lower than the stoichiometric required, O/C ratios lower than 0.6. Its high oxygen mobility may have accelerated the surface oxidation reactions of carbon by reactive oxygen species, thus, inhibiting carbon growth on the catalyst surface.

DE Hydrogen delivery; Cryogenic; High pressure; Glass fiber
ID STORAGE; COST
AB We are proposing to minimize hydrogen delivery cost through utilization of glass fiber tube trailers at 200 K and 70 MPa to produce a synergistic combination of container characteristics with properties of hydrogen gas: (1) hydrogen cooled to 200 K is similar to 35% more compact for a small increase in theoretical storage energy (exergy); and (2) these cold temperatures (200 K) strengthen glass fibers by as much as 50%, expanding trailer capacity without the use of much more costly carbon fiber composite vessels.
Analyses based on US Department of Energy H2A cost and efficiency parameters and economic methodology indicate the potential for hydrogen delivery costs below $1/kg H(2). Dispensing cold hydrogen may also allow rapid refueling without over-temperatures and overpressures which are typically as high as 25%, simplifying automotive vessel design and improving safety while potentially reducing vessel weight and cost. Based on these results, we suggest hydrogen delivery by truck with trailers carrying hydrogen gas at pressures as high as 70 MPa, cooled to approximately 200 K in glass fiber vessels.

AB The transport characteristics of hydrogen atoms are of significant interest within the energy industry. in this study, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations based on a semi-empirical quantum model are performed to examine the diffusion of hydrogen in a dense nickel membrane. The mean square displacement (MSD) and diffusion coefficients of the nickel and hydrogen atoms are derived at various temperatures in the range of 300-1800 K. The numerical results reveal the changes which take place in the transportation mechanism of the hydrogen atoms as a result of a temperature-induced variation in the lattice structure. It is shown that the transport of the hydrogen atoms changes from an interstitial diffusion mechanism at temperatures lower than 1200 K to a vacancy diffusion mechanism at temperatures of 1600-1800 K as result of a change in the nickel lattice from an ordered FCC structure to an amorphous-type structure.

Specifically, we solve numerically the linear momentum equations for the flow of this viscoelastic shear-thinning (shear-thickening) fluid surrounding a solid cylindrical rod that is suddenly set into longitudinal and torsional motion. The equations are made dimensionless. The results are presented for the shear stresses at the wall, related to the drag force; these are physical quantities of interest, especially in oil-drilling applications. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

DE spin-density; graphically contracted function (GCF); graphical unitary

ID UNITARY-GROUP APPROACH; WAVE-FUNCTIONS
AB An efficient algorithm is presented to compute spin-density matrices from wave functions expanded in a basis of graphically contracted functions (GCF). The GCFs are based on the graphical unitary group approach (GUGA), which is a "spin-free" formulation of the electronic wave function. The spin-density matrix elements are computed from one-particle and two-particle charge-density matrix elements. The recursive algorithm allows the spin-density matrix to be computed with O(N(GCF)(2)omega n(2)) total effort where N(GCF) is the dimension of the GCF basis and n is the dimension of the orbital basis. The scale factor a) depends on the number of electrons N and ranges from O(N(0)) to O(N(2)) depending on the complexity of the underlying Shavitt graph. Because the "spin-free" GCF formulation eliminates the need to expand the wave function in a spin-dependent Slater determinant basis, it is possible to treat wave functions with large numbers of electrons and orbitals. Timings are given for wave functions that correspond to determinantal expansions over 10(200) in length. The implementation is applicable to arbitrary spin states and to both ground and excited electronic states. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem 109: 3552-3563, 2009

AB The static-lattice equation of state (EOS) and structural phase stability of Thorium Dioxide (ThO2) have been investigated for pressures up to 500 kbar using the relativistic linear combinations of Gaussian type orbitals-fitting function (LCGTO-FF) technique, within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) to density functional theory (DFT). Two observed room temperature crystal structures for ThO2 have been considered here, the ambient fluorite structure and the high-pressure cotunnite structure. The EOS parameters calculated for the fluorite structure and the external cell parameters found for the cotunnite structure are consistent with experiment to within the known limitations of the GGA model. The internal lattice parameters obtained for the cotunnite phase differ greatly from the experimental values reported in the literature. There is strong theoretical evidence that the measured values of the internal parameters are in error. The predicted transition pressure (275 kbar) is in reasonable agreement with the measured value of 330 kbar, given the likelihood of strong metastability in this oxide.

AB The similarity of the AMBER force field's energy functional form with that of the CHARMM force field, gives the potential for direct translation of common bonding and nonbonding terms, along with their parameters, present in CHARMM topology and parameter files, with the intent of evaluation within the AMBER software; specifically the SANDER and PMEMD dynamics engines. To this extent, we have created a tool, CHAMBER, which can take a CHARMM protein structure file (PSF), coordinate file (COR) and associated forcefield files, and convert these to an AMBER topology file (prmtop) and associated coordinate file (inpcrd). CHAMBER opens a conversion route which enables the simulation of CHARMM parameterized models using AMBER's PMEMD engine; thus providing improved serial efficiency as well as parallel efficiency over large numbers of CPUs. Significant effort has been expended in ensuring a true representation of the CHARMM force field in AMBER providing energies and forces that are the same to the limits of machine precision. This software will be released in the upcoming version 1.3 of the free AMBERTools suite. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Int J Quantum Chem 109: 3767-3772, 2009

This effect enables us to develop an adiabatic theory which determines ground state much more efficiently than Hermitian methods.

AB Heterogeneous strain was analyzed in polycrystalline, commercial-purity titanium using many experimental techniques that provide information about microstructure, dislocation arrangement, grain orientation, orientation gradients, surface topography. and local strain gradients. The recrystallized microstructure with 50-200 mu m grains was extensively characterized before and after deformation using 4-point bending to strains between 2% and 15%. Extremely heterogeneous deformation occurred along some grain boundaries, leading to orientation gradients exceeding 10 degrees over 10-20 mu m. Patches of highly characterized microstructure were modeled using crystal plasticity element (CPFE) analysis to simulate the de,formation to evaluate the ability of the CPFE model to capture local deformation processes. Damage nucleation events were identified that are associated with livin interactions with grain boundaries. Progress toward identifying fracture initiation criteria based upon slip and twin interactions with grain boundaries is illustrated with related CPFE simulations of deformation in a TiAl alloy.

AB In this study, the fatigue-induced microstructure produced in a nickel-based poly;crystalline superalloy that was subjected to cyclic loading was characterized by polychromatic x-ray microdiffraction (PXM) together with in-situ neutron diffraction and transmission-electron microscopy (TEM). In-situ neutron-diffraction measurements reveal two distinct stages of the fatigue damage: cyclic hardening followed by cyclic softening. Three-dimensional spatially resolved PXM micro-Laue measurements-find an increase in the density, of geometrically necessary dislocations near the grain boundaries, which is accompanied by lattice rotations and grain subdivisions. The PXM results are in agreement with the in-situ neutron-diffraction and TEM results.

AB A high-resolution and high-throughput synchrotron powder diffractometer has been automated for use with samples that are mailed in by Advanced Photon Source users. Implementation of a relational database with web interfaces for both outside users and beamline staff, which is integrated into the facility-wide proposal and safety system, allows all aspects of beamline management to be integrated. This system permits users to request kits for mounting samples, to provide sample safety information, to obtain their collected data and to provide usage information upon project completion in a quick and simple manner. Beamline staff use a separate interface to note receipt of samples, schedule and collect diffraction data, post-process and quality-check data, and dispose of samples. The design of the software and database are discussed in detail.

AB The standing X-ray wavefield into a single-crystal bulk is characterized by a combination of the diffracted-reflected h-beams and the diffracted-transmitted o-beam. For different angular positions on the total reflection region, the standing X-ray wavefield has its maximum from the region between the atomic planes (low photoelectric absorption) to the region on the atomic planes (high photoelectric absorption). Historically, the evidence for such a characteristic has come from experiments such as anomalous transmission (Borrmann effect, originally detected in Laue geometry) and fluorescent measurements with a single crystal under diffraction conditions. In the present work, such a characteristic is demonstrated by the direct measurement of the standing X-ray wavefield intensity into a 50 mu m-thick single-crystal CCD detector (Si 800) set in back-diffraction geometry.

TI Design challenges and performance of nested neutron mirrors for
microfocusing on SNAP
SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED CRYSTALLOGRAPHY

DT Article
ID MICRODIFFRACTION; OPTICS
AB Kirkpatrick-Baez (KB) neutron supermirrors can efficiently focus polychromatic neutron beams to micrometre dimensions. The ultimate size is determined mainly by the perfection of the mirrors and by the size of the beam needed to have sufficient experimental signal. Nested or Montel KB mirrors can collect similar to 2.6 times more beam than standard sequential KB optics, but require good figure perfection at the edge of one mirror. This paper describes the characterization of the figure errors over the important reflective portions of the two mirrors needed for a Montel focusing pair. The measurements are placed in context with theoretical predictions and are used to predict mirror focusing performance. Strategies to improve on the focusing of this class of optics are suggested and early results from these mirrors installed on the Spallation Neutrons at Pressure (SNAP) Beamline 3 at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge are presented.

AB The formalism for, and the values of, aspherical electron scattering factors using relativistic wavefunctions are presented. The parameterizations of electron form factors valid for a full range of scattering vectors from 0.0 to 6.0 angstrom(-1) were obtained for atoms with atomic number 1 (H) to 54 (Xe) by fitting a linear combination of Gaussian functions. Eight Gaussians were needed to achieve high-quality fittings. The tabulated aspherical p- and d-orbital parameters are invaluable for probing orbital electrons and calculating high-resolution electron microscopy images and diffractions, especially those involving interfaces and defects.

AB A three-dimensional (3D) modeling study was completed on a very large electrical resistivity survey conducted at a nuclear waste site in eastern Washington. The acquisition included 47 pole-pole two-dimensional (2D) resistivity profiles collected along parallel and orthogonal lines over an area of 850 m x 570 m. The data were geo-referenced and inverted using Earthlmager3D (EI3D). EI3D runs on a Microsoft 32-bit operating system (e.g. WIN-2K, XP) with a maximum usable memory of 2 GB. The memory limits the size of the domain for the inversion model to 200 m x 200 m, based on the survey electrode density. Therefore, a series of increasing overlapping models were run to evaluate the effectiveness of dividing the survey area into smaller subdomains. The results of the smaller subdomains were compared to the inversion results of a single domain over a larger area using an upgraded form of EI3D that incorporates multi-processing capabilities and 32 GB of RAM memory. The contours from the smaller subdomains showed discontinuity at the boundaries between the adjacent models, which do not match the hydrogeologic expectations given the nature of disposal at the site. At several boundaries, the contours of the low resistivity areas close, leaving the appearance of disconnected plumes or open contours at boundaries are not met with a continuance of the low resistivity plume into the adjacent subdomain. The model results of the single large domain show a continuous monolithic plume within the central and western portion of the site, directly beneath the elongated trenches. It is recommended that where possible, the domain not be subdivided, but instead include as much of the domain as possible given the memory of available computing resources. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

TI The Temporal and Spatial Distribution of Carbon Dioxide Emissions from
Fossil-Fuel Use in North America
SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED METEOROLOGY AND CLIMATOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
ID UNITED-STATES; CONSUMPTION
AB Refinements in the spatial and temporal resolution of North American fossil-fuel carbon dioxide (CO(2)) emissions provide additional information about anthropogenic aspects of the carbon cycle. In North America, the seasonal and spatial patterns are a distinctive component to characterizing anthropogenic carbon emissions. The pattern of fossil-fuel-based CO(2) emissions on a monthly scale has greater temporal and spatial variability than the flux aggregated to the national annual level. For some areas, monthly emissions can vary by as much as 85% for some fuels when compared with monthly estimates based on a uniform temporal and spatial distribution. The United States accounts for the majority of North American fossil carbon emissions, and the amplitude of the seasonal flux in emissions in the United States is greater than the total mean monthly emissions in both Canada and Mexico. Nevertheless, Canada and Mexico have distinctive seasonal patterns as well. For the continent, emissions were aggregated on a 5 degrees x 10 degrees latitude-longitude grid. The monthly pattern of emissions varies on both a north-south and east-west gradient and evolves through the time period analyzed (1990-2007). For many areas in North America, the magnitude of the month-to-month variation is larger than the total annual emissions from land use change, making the characterization of emissions patterns essential to understanding humanity's influence on the carbon cycle.

AB Although substantial economic barriers exist, marine diatoms such as Thalassiosira pseudonana and Phaeodactylum tricornutum hold promise as feedstock for biodiesel because of their ability to manufacture and store triacylglycerols (TAGs). The recent sequencing of these two marine diatom genomes by the United States Department of Energy Joint Genome Institute and the development of improved systems for genetic manipulation should allow a more systematic approach to understanding and maximizing TAG production. However, in order to best utilize these genomes and genetic tools, we must first gain a deeper understanding of the nutrient-mediated regulation of TAG anabolism. By determining both the yield and molecular species distribution of TAGs we will, in the future, be able to fully characterize the effects of genetic manipulation. Here, we lay the groundwork for understanding TAG production in T. pseudonana and P. tricornutum, as a function of nitrate and silicate depletion. Diatoms were starved of either nitrate or silicate, and TAGs were extracted with hexane from lyophilized samples taken at various time intervals following starvation. The timing of TAG production and the relative abundance of TAGs were estimated by fluorescence spectroscopy using Nile red and the total yield per biomass determined by gravimetric assay. TAGs were analyzed using thin layer chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry, and electrospray ionization mass spectrometry to identify the major TAG species produced during the growth curve. Under our conditions, the TAG yield from T. pseudonana is about 14-18% of total dry weight. The TAG yield from P. tricornutum is about 14% of total dry weight. Silicate-starved T. pseudonana accumulated an average of 24% more TAGs than those starved for nitrate; however, the chemotypes of the TAGs produced were generally similar regardless of the starvation condition employed.

AB An antiferromagnet-ferromagnet-antiferromagnet trilayer was grown in magnetic field using CoMn, permalloy (Py), and FeMn, respectively. Magnetometry studies show that the direction of exchange coupling of CoMn with Py was perpendicular to that of Py with FeMn. These results are explained by a spin flop in the CoMn layer and show that the spin structure of an antiferromagnet may undergo severe modification due to a relatively small magnetic field applied during its growth. The perpendicular exchange coupling was exploited in the CoMn-Py-FeMn trilayer to manipulate the easy axis of the ferromagnet.

AB The capability of gallium nitride (GaN) high power transistors arises, in large part, due to piezoelectric polarizations that induce the formation of a carrier rich two-dimensional electron gas. These polarizations, in turn, are directly related to the strain and hence stress that is present within the transistor. As a consequence, the stress load, as well as its measurement, is extremely important to the optimization of this device class. In response, this study demonstrates a technique to quantify the magnitude of operational thermoelastic stress that evolves in a GaN transistor through simultaneous use of the Raman signal's Stokes peak position and linewidth. After verifying the technique through comparison with a finite element model, the method is then utilized in the analysis of high electron mobility transistors grown on silicon (Si) and silicon carbide (SiC) substrates. For each series of device, the major stress contributors-thermoelastic, converse piezoelectric, and residual-are acquired and compared. While the magnitudes of the components are larger in those devices grown on silicon, the resultant biaxial loads in each of the devices are comparable at high power levels as the dominant residual tensile stress is counterbalanced by the compressive thermoelastic contribution.

AB GaxIn1-xP alloys grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) are known to exhibit spontaneous long-range ordering that results in a modification of the alloy electronic band structure. Using time resolved and time integrated photoluminescence studies at 9 K, we demonstrate that the change in alloy ordering in GaxIn1-xP alloys can transform the conduction to valence band optical transition from direct to indirect for a given Ga concentration. This finding may enable sequential growth of alternate layers of high bandgap direct and indirect semiconductor alloys with similar lattice constants, opening various possibilities for device applications.

AB We investigate electronic energy level alignment and photocurrent in crystalline silicon/organic/semitransparent metal heterojunction diodes. Optically thin films of poly[2-methoxy,5-(2(')-ethyl-hexyloxy)-1,4-phenylene vinylene] (MEH-PPV), poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene) [PFO], pentacene (Pc), and C(60) were deposited on n and p type Si wafers and diode structures were formed by depositing either a Au anode or Al cathode onto the organic film. The energy level alignment was assessed using built-in potential and capacitance-voltage measurements. In all cases, the results are consistent with near ideal vacuum energy level alignment between the organic and inorganic semiconductor. The diode current-voltage (I-V) characteristics are consistent with the electronic structure of the heterojunction interface. For n-Si/MEH-PPV/Au, the I-V curves are quantitatively described by an organic device model. For photocurrent measurements the diodes were illuminated through the semitransparent metal contact with optical wavelengths from 350-1100 nm. The photocurrent in the diode structure can be due to absorption either in the organic layer or Si substrate. For n-Si diodes, the 0 bias photocurrent is small with external quantum efficiencies (EQEs) less than 5x10(-3) in all cases. The photocurrent is dominated by absorption in the organic layer for MEH-PPV, PFO, and C(60) and by absorption in Si for Pc. For p-Si diodes, the 0 bias photocurrent is large with EQEs of similar to 0.2 and is dominated by absorption in silicon for all organic layers. Both MEH-PPV and PFO form type I heterostructures with Si and photocurrent due to organic exciton dissociation is less efficient than in commonly used type II organic/organic heterostructures. Silicon/Pc and C(60) heterojunctions are most likely type II with small valence (Pc) or conduction (C(60)) energy level differences. Surprisingly, no photocurrent was observed due to optical absorption in Pc most likely due to a chemical reaction between Pc and Si that prevented exciton dissociation at the heterojunction interface. In n-type/C(60) structures photoconductive gain with EQE >3 was obtained and in p-type structures, the EQE was >0.15 and the spectral response of the photocurrent could be changed significantly from broad band absorption in Si to relatively narrow band absorption in C(60).

AB The fast and reversible phase transition mechanism between crystalline and amorphous phases of Ge2Sb2Te5 has been in debate for several years. Through employing first-principles density functional theory calculations, we identify a direct structural link between the metastable crystalline and amorphous phases. The phase transition is driven by the displacement of Ge atoms along the rocksalt [111] direction from stable octahedron to high energy unstable tetrahedron sites close to the intrinsic vacancy regions, which generates a high energy intermediate phase between metastable and amorphous phases. Due to the instability of Ge at the tetrahedron sites, the Ge atoms naturally shift away from those sites, giving rise to the formation of local-ordered fourfold motifs and the long-range structural disorder. Intrinsic vacancies, which originate from Sb2Te3, lower the energy barrier for Ge displacements, and hence, their distribution plays an important role in the phase transition. The high energy intermediate configuration can be obtained experimentally by applying an intense laser beam, which overcomes the thermodynamic barrier from the octahedron to tetrahedron sites. The high figure of merit of Ge2Sb2Te5 is achieved from the optimal combination of intrinsic vacancies provided by Sb2Te3 and the instability of the tetrahedron sites provided by GeTe.

AB Using the first-principle density-functional theory, we study the structure and effects of vacancies in Sigma 3 (112) grain boundary with the coincident-site lattice structure in Si. We find that the formation energy for a Si vacancy in the grain boundary is significantly lower than that in Si perfect region, indicating strong segregation of Si vacancy in grain boundary regions. The formation of Si vacancies in grain boundaries either cleans up the deep levels or facilitates complete passivation by H atoms. Our results suggest that vacancies in grain boundaries may play important role in determining grain boundary physics and passivation behavior.

AB The output frequency and RF generating efficiency of a lumped element or periodic transmission line with nonlinear capacitors and linear inductors is investigated, using both a purely resistive linear load and a load that contains linear reactive components. The nonlinear transmission line creates high frequency RF by converting a long unipolar input pulse into a train of rapidly oscillating solitons. The RF efficiency increases as the modulation depth between adjacent solitons deepens, and is affected by the nonlinearity of the line and the total number of nonlinear stages used. A linear resistive termination distorts the pulse so as to reduce the RF efficiency, particularly when the nonlinearity is high. The RF efficiency is found to increase significantly when a linear load with reactive elements is used which absorbs the desired high frequency component of the signal but reflects the remaining low frequency parts of the signal back into the line.

AB The idealized system of an atomically flat metallic surface [highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG)] and an organic monolayer (porphyrin) was used to determine whether the dielectric function and associated properties of thin films can be accessed with scanning-near-field scanning optical microscopy (s-NSOM). Here, we demonstrate the use of harmonics up to fourth order and the polarization dependence of incident light to probe dielectric properties on idealized samples of monolayers of organic molecules on atomically smooth substrates. An analytical treatment of light/sample interaction using the s-NSOM tip was developed in order to quantify the dielectric properties. The theoretical analysis and numerical modeling, as well as experimental data, demonstrate that higher order harmonic scattering can be used to extract the dielectric properties of materials with tens of nanometer spatial resolution. To date, the third harmonic provides the best lateral resolution(similar to 50 nm) and dielectric constant contrast for a porphyrin film on HOPG.

AB The local structure of a Zn, Sn codoped In(2)O(3) thin film grown on c-plane sapphire by pulsed-laser deposition was examined by polarization-dependent x-ray absorption spectroscopy. The bixbyite film structure is both out-of-plane and in-plane oriented, and the structural results show that both Zn and Sn dopants occupy In sites. The In-O bond length is comparable to that in powder In(2)O(3). However, both Sn-O and Zn-O bonds have two distinct distances in the first shell. Some of the Zn dopants are undercoordinated and, accordingly, some isovalent Sn dopants are overcoordinated for charge balance. In addition, the results suggest that the aliovalent Sn dopants form Frank-Koumlstlin clusters, (2Sn(In)O(i))(x), which provide enough charge carriers to explain the Hall measurements.

AB Nanowires have generated considerable interest as nanoscale interconnects and as active components of both electronic and electromechanical devices. However, in many cases, manipulation and modification of nanowires are required to fully realize their potential. It is essential, for instance, to control the orientation and positioning of nanowires in some specific applications. This work demonstrates a simple method to reversibly control the shape and the orientation of Ge nanowires using ion beams. Crystalline nanowires were amorphized by 30 keV Ga(+) implantation. Subsequently, viscous flow and plastic deformation occurred causing the nanowires to bend toward the beam direction. The bending was reversed multiple times by ion implanting the opposite side of the nanowires, resulting in straightening and subsequent bending into that opposite direction. This effect demonstrates the detailed manipulation of nanoscale structures is possible through the use of ion irradiation.

AB The experimental determination of thermal and optical properties, such as the fluorescence quantum efficiency (eta) and temperature coefficient of the optical path length change (ds/dT) have been a challenging task. In this work, mode-mismatched thermal lens and spectroscopic measurements were performed using Er3+-, Nd3+-, and Pr3+-doped lead-indium-phosphate glasses to obtain the thermal diffusivity and conductivity, ds/dT, the thermal loading (nonradiative quantum efficiency), and eta. The experimental difficulties associated with obtaining eta for systems with several emitting levels, such as Er3+-doped materials were overcome. A discussion of the implications of the small eta values obtained for Er3+- and Pr3+-doped glass is presented.

AB In order to image a source or a scatterer embedded in a three dimensional solid, acoustic/elastic wave data from an actual experiment are time reversed and backpropagated through a numerical model of the medium. The model makes use of estimates for the elastic constants of the laboratory solid. These estimates may not be very precise, for example, due to experimental uncertainties. Poor characterization of the medium leads to the degradation of the time reversal focus, therefore, to poor medium imaging. In this work, we report on the results of investigating the time reversal focus degradation as the estimates depart from the real values. Very small deviations from the medium's actual elastic constants degrade the time reversal focus dramatically. However, decreasing the total duration of the signals used for time reversal can attenuate the degradation in some cases. We propose a new method to compensate for the deviations of the model medium's elastic constants from the actual values. Finally, we explore the effects of scatterers that may exist in the laboratory medium, but are not included in the model medium, and show that their presence does not produce significant effects on the time reversal focus.

AB In acoustics, it is known that, for a given response signal at an arbitrary location, reciprocity and time reversal (TR) can be used to focus high levels of acoustic energy at that position. In solid media, elastic waves generally induce different disturbances in three directions. In this paper, both experimental and numerical wave propagation results for solid materials demonstrate the ability to use a scalar source, a three component detector and the reciprocal TR process to selectively focus each of the different vector components, either individually or collectively. The principle is explained from an analytical point of view. The numerical and experimental study demonstrates excellent temporal and spatial focalization. Applications of the selective vector component focusing can be found in damage imaging techniques using both linear or nonlinear ultrasonic waves.

AB Overcoming the effects of hydrolysate toxicity towards ethanologens is a key technical barrier in the biochemical conversion process for biomass feedstocks to ethanol. Despite its importance, the complexity of the hydrolysate toxicity phenomena and the lack of systematic studies, analysis and tools surrounding this issue have blocked a full understanding of relationships involving toxic compounds in hydrolysates and their effects on ethanologen growth and fermentation. In this study, we developed a quantitative. high-throughput biological growth assay using an automated turbidometer to obtain detailed inhibitory kinetics for individual compounds present in lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysate. Information about prolonged lag time and final cell densities can also be obtained. The effects of furfural, hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), acetate and ethanol on growth rate and final cell densities of Zymomonas mobilis 8b on glucose are presented. This method was also shown to be of value in toxicity studies of hydrolysate itself, despite the highly colored nature of this material. Using this approach, we can generate comprehensive inhibitory profiles with many individual compounds and develop models that predict and examine toxic effects in the complex mixture of hydrolysates, leading to the development of improved pretreatment and conditioning processes as well as fermentation organisms.

oligomeric matrix protein
AB The thrombospondins (TSPs) are a family of five matricellular proteins that appear to function as adapter molecules to guide extracellular matrix synthesis and tissue remodeling in a variety of normal and disease settings. Various TSPs have been shown to bind to fibronectin, laminin, matrilins, collagens and other extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. The importance of TSP-1 in this context is underscored by the fact that it is rapidly deposited at the sites of tissue damage by platelets. An association of TSPs with collagens has been known for over 25 years. The observation that the disruption of the TSP-2 gene in mice leads to collagen fibril abnormalities provided important in vivo evidence that these interactions are physiologically important. Recent biochemical studies have shown that TSP-5 promotes collagen fibril assembly and structural studies suggest that TSPs may interact with collagens through a highly conserved potential metal ion dependent adhesion site (MIDAS). These interactions are critical for normal tissue homeostasis, tumor progression and the etiology of skeletal dysplasias.

AB The objective of this task was to demonstrate that metal hydrides could be produced by mechanical alloying in the quantities needed to support production-scale hydrogen isotope separations. Three starting compositions (ratios of elemental Zr and Fe powders) were selected and attritor milled under argon for times of 8 to 60 hours. In general, milling times of at least 24 hours were required to form the desired Zr(2)Fe and Zr(3)Fe phases, although a considerable amount of unalloyed Zr and Fe remained. Milling in liquid nitrogen does not appear to provide any advantages over milling in hexane, particularly due to the formation of ZrN after longer milling times. Carbides of Zr formed during some of the milling experiments in hexane. Elemental Zr was present in the as-milled material but not detected after annealing for milling times of 48 and 60 hours. It may be that after intimate mixing of the powders in the attritor mill the annealing temperature was sufficient to allow for the formation of a Zr-Fe alloy. Further investigation of this conversion is necessary, and could provide an opportunity for reducing the amount of unreacted metal powder after milling.

AB The ability of eight climate models to simulate the Madden-Julian oscillation (MJO) is examined using diagnostics developed by the U. S. Climate Variability and Predictability (CLIVAR) MJO Working Group. Although the MJO signal has been extracted throughout the annual cycle, this study focuses on the boreal winter (November-April) behavior. Initially, maps of the mean state and variance and equatorial space-time spectra of 850-hPa zonal wind and precipitation are compared with observations. Models best represent the intraseasonal space-time spectral peak in the zonal wind compared to that of precipitation. Using the phase-space representation of the multivariate principal components (PCs), the life cycle properties of the simulated MJOs are extracted, including the ability to represent how the MJO evolves from a given subphase and the associated decay time scales. On average, the MJO decay (e-folding) time scale for all models is shorter (similar to 20-29 days) than observations (similar to 31 days). All models are able to produce a leading pair of multivariate principal components that represents eastward propagation of intraseasonal wind and precipitation anomalies, although the fraction of the variance is smaller than observed for all models. In some cases, the dominant time scale of these PCs is outside of the 30-80-day band.
Several key variables associated with the model's MJO are investigated, including the surface latent heat flux, boundary layer (925 hPa) moisture convergence, and the vertical structure of moisture. Low-level moisture convergence ahead (east) of convection is associated with eastward propagation in most of the models. A few models are also able to simulate the gradual moistening of the lower troposphere that precedes observed MJO convection, as well as the observed geographical difference in the vertical structure of moisture associated with the MJO. The dependence of rainfall on lower tropospheric relative humidity and the fraction of rainfall that is stratiform are also discussed, including implications these diagnostics have for MJO simulation. Based on having the most realistic intraseasonal multivariate empirical orthogonal functions, principal component power spectra, equatorial eastward propagating outgoing longwave radiation (OLR), latent heat flux, low-level moisture convergence signals, and vertical structure of moisture over the Eastern Hemisphere, the superparameterized Community Atmosphere Model (SPCAM) and the ECHAM4/Ocean Isopycnal Model (OPYC) show the best skill at representing the MJO.

AB A C-grid staggering, in which the mass variable is stored at cell centers and the normal velocity component is stored at cell faces (or edges in two dimensions) is attractive for atmospheric modeling since it enables a relatively accurate representation of fast wave modes. However, the discretization of the Coriolis terms is non-trivial. For constant Coriolis parameter, the linearized shallow water equations support geostrophic modes: stationary solutions in geostrophic balance. A naive discretization of the Coriolis terms can cause geostrophic modes to become non-stationary, causing unphysical behaviour of numerical solutions. Recent work has shown how to discretize the Coriolis terms on a planar regular hexagonal grid to ensure that geostrophic modes are stationary while the Coriolis terms remain energy conserving. In this paper this result is extended to arbitrarily structured C-grids. An explicit formula is given for constructing an appropriate discretization of the Coriolis terms. The general formula is illustrated by showing that it recovers previously known results for the planar regular hexagonal C-grid and the spherical longitude-latitude C-grid. Numerical calculation confirms that the scheme does indeed give stationary geostrophic modes for the hexagonal-pentagonal and triangular geodesic C-grids on the sphere. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc.

DE Shock hydrodynamics; Lagrangian hydrodynamics; Numerical methods; Finite

ID ALGORITHM; ERRORS
AB We derive a tensor artificial viscosity suitable for use in a 2D or 3D unstructured arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) hydrodynamics code. This work is similar in nature to that of Campbell and Shashkov [1]; however, our approach is based on a finite element discretization that is fundamentally different from the mimetic finite difference framework. The finite element point of view leads to novel insights as well as improved numerical results. We begin with a generalized tensor version of the Von Neumann-Richtmyer artificial viscosity, then convert it to a variational formulation and apply a Galerkin discretization process using high order Gaussian quadrature to obtain a generalized nodal force term and corresponding zonal heating (or shock entropy) term. This technique is modular and is therefore suitable for coupling to a traditional staggered grid discretization of the momentum and energy conservation laws; however, we motivate the use of such finite element approaches for discretizing each term in the Euler equations. We review the key properties that any artificial viscosity must possess and use these to formulate specific constraints on the total artificial viscosity force term as well as the artificial viscosity coefficient. We also show, that under certain simplifying assumptions, the two-dimensional scheme from [1] can be viewed as an under-integrated version of our finite element method. This equivalence holds on general distorted quadrilateral grids. Finally, we present computational results on some standard shock hydro test problems, as well as some more challenging problems, indicating the advantages of the new approach with respect to symmetry preservation for shock wave propagation over general grids.

ID 2-GRID ACCELERATION; EQUATIONS; SCHEME; GMRES
AB In particle transport applications there are numerous physical constructs in which heterogeneities are randomly distributed. The quantity of interest in these problems is the ensemble average of the flux, or the average of the flux over all possible material 'realizations.' The Levermore-Pomraning closure assumes Markovian mixing statistics and allows a closed, coupled system of equations to be written for the ensemble averages of the flux in each material. Generally, binary statistical mixtures are considered in which there are two (homogeneous) materials and corresponding coupled equations. The solution process is iterative, but convergence may be slow as either or both materials approach the diffusion and/or atomic mix limits. A three-part acceleration scheme is devised to expedite convergence, particularly in the atomic mix-diffusion limit where computation is extremely slow. The iteration is first divided into a series of 'inner' material and source iterations to attenuate the diffusion and atomic mix error modes separately. Secondly, atomic mix synthetic acceleration is applied to the inner material iteration and S(2) synthetic acceleration to the inner source iterations to offset the cost of doing several inner iterations per outer iteration. Finally, a Krylov iterative solver is wrapped around each iteration, inner and outer, to further expedite convergence. A spectral analysis is conducted and iteration counts and computing cost for the new two-step scheme are compared against those for a simple one-step iteration. to which a Krylov iterative method can also be applied.

AB The primordial non-Gaussian parameter f(NL) has been shown to be scale-dependent in several models of inflation with a variable speed of sound, such as Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) models. We perform a Fisher matrix analysis of the bispectra of the temperature and polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation and derive the expected constraints on the parameter n(NG) that quantifies the running of f(NL)(k) for current and future CMB missions. We find that CMB information alone, in the event of a significant detection of the non-Gaussian component, corresponding to f(NL) = 50 for the local model and f(NL) = 100 for the equilateral model of non-Gaussianity, is able to determine n(NG) with a 1-sigma uncertainty of Delta n(NG) similar or equal to 0.1 and Delta n(NG) similar or equal to 0.3, respectively, for the Planck mission and a factor of two better for CMBPol. In addition, we show how future large-scale structure observations should achieve results comparable to or even better than those from the CMB, while showing some complementarity due to the different distribution of the non-Gaussian signal over the relevant range of scales. Finally, we compare our findings to the predictions on the amplitude and running of non-Gaussianity of DBI inflation, showing how the constraints on a scale-dependent f(NL) (k) translate into constraints on the parameter space of the theory.

TI Lightning-Induced Remanent Magnetic Anomalies in Low-Altitude
Aeromagnetic Data
SO JOURNAL OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND ENGINEERING GEOPHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
AB A low altitude helicopter magnetic survey for unexploded ordnance in New Mexico revealed several magnetic anomalies that were most likely induced by lightning strikes. Lightning-strike magnetic anomalies are not necessarily rare, but may be spaced so widely as to make their detection unlikely in a ground survey. Detailed examples are not often reported because ground geophysical surveys may not cover enough area to detect one, and traditional airborne surveys, which do cover large areas, are carried out at an altitude and line spacing which does not appropriately define the unusual shape of the lightning strike anomaly. However, very low-level (1-3 m altitude) airborne magnetic surveys have data densities similar to ground geophysical surveys, yet cover much larger areas. Lightning anomalies appear in magnetic data as radial arms emanating from a central strike point. Each arm has distinct positive and negative lobes. Anomaly amplitudes in the New Mexico survey area ranged from roughly -30 to +30 nT/m, and the lightning-strike anomaly density was about one per 20 hectares. This is a conservative estimate, as only the most obvious anomalies were counted. The character of the lightning-induced magnetic anomalies changes with an increase in survey altitude or with wider line spacing, making them less distinct from other types of magnetic anomalies.

AB Traditionally, dissolved oxygen (DO) fluxes have been calculated using the thin-film theory with DO microstructure data in systems characterized by fine sediments and low velocities. However, recent experimental evidence of fluctuating DO concentrations near the sediment-water interface suggests that turbulence and coherent motions control the mass transfer, and the surface renewal theory gives a more mechanistic model for quantifying fluxes. Both models involve quantifying the mass transfer coefficient (k) and the relevant concentration difference (Delta C). This study compared several empirical models for quantifying k based on both thin-film and surface renewal theories, as well as presents a new method for quantifying Delta C (dynamic approach) that is consistent with the observed DO concentration fluctuations near the interface. Data were used from a series of flume experiments that includes both physical and kinetic uptake limitations of the flux. Results indicated that methods for quantifying k and Delta C using the surface renewal theory better estimated the DO flux across a range of fluid-flow conditions.

contamination; Modeling; Countermeasures; External exposure
AB The RESRAD-RDD methodology was applied to model the short- and long-term radiation exposures after a hypothetical radiological dispersal device (RDD) event in an urban environment. It was assumed that an RDD event would result in outside surface contamination of the exterior walls and roofs of surrounding buildings, as well as associated paved areas and lawns. The contaminants also might move inside the buildings and deposit on floors and interior walls. Some important input parameters include occupancy factors, building characteristics, and weathering of surface contamination. The modeling results include predicted external dose rates, relative contributions from important surfaces, annual and cumulative doses, and radionuclide concentrations. Potential countermeasures evaluated include grass removal, soil removal, and washing of paved areas. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Fractional scaling analysis (FSA) is demonstrated here at the component level for depressurization of nuclear reactor primary systems undergoing a large-break loss of coolant accident. This paper is the third of a three-part sequence. The first paper by Zuber et al. (2005, "Application of Fractional Scaling Analysis (FSA) to Loss of Coolant Accidents (LOCA), Part 1. Methodology Development," Nucl. Eng. Des., 237, pp. 15931607) introduces the FSA method; the second by Wulff et al. (2005, "Application of Fractional Scaling Methodology (FSM) to Loss of Coolant Accidents (LOCA), Part 2. System Level Scaling for System Depressurization, " ASME J. Fluid Eng., to be published) demonstrates FSA at the system level. This paper demonstrates that a single experiment or trustworthy computer simulation, when properly scaled, suffices for large break loss of coolant accident (LBOCAs) in the primary system of a pressurized water reactor and of all related test facilities. FSA, when applied at the system, component, and process levels, serves to synthesize the world-wide wealth of results from analyses and experiments into compact form for efficient storage, transfer and retrieval of information. This is demonstrated at the component level. It is shown that during LBOCAs, the fuel rod stored energy is the dominant agent of change and that FSA can rank processes quantitatively and thereby objectively in the order of their importance. FSA readily identifies scale distortions. FSA is shown to supercede use of the subjectively implemented phenomena identification and ranking table and to minimize the number of experiments, analyses and computational effort by reducing the evaluation of peak clad temperature (PCT) to a single parameter problem, thus, greatly simplifying uncertainty analysis.

Caching Scientific Data on Distributed Desktop Workstations
SO JOURNAL OF GRID COMPUTING
LA English
DT Article
DE Desktop grids; Storage scavenging; Scientific data
AB Client-side data caching serves as an excellent mechanism to store and analyze the rapidly growing scientific data, motivating distributed, client-side caches built from unreliable desktop storage contributions to store and access large scientific data. They offer several desirable properties, such as performance impedance matching, improved space utilization, and high parallel I/O bandwidth. In this context, we are faced with two key challenges: (1) the finite amount of contributed cache space is stretched by the ever increasing scientific dataset sizes and (2) the transient nature of volunteered storage nodes impacts data availability. In this article, we address these challenges by exploiting the existence of external, primary copies of datasets. We propose a novel combination of prefix caching, collective download, and remote partial data recovery (RPDR), to deal with optimal cache space consumption and storage node volatility. Our evaluation, performed on our FreeLoader prototype, indicates that prefix caching can significantly improve the cache hit rate and partial data recovery is better than (or comparable to) many persistent-data availability techniques.

The calculation is performed using an effective Lagrangian which is valid in the limit of very large top quark mass.

AB We analyze flavor-changing-neutral-current (FCNC) effects in the b -> s transitions that are induced by family non-universal U(1)' gauge symmetries. After systematically developing the necessary formalism, we present a correlated analysis for the Delta B = 1, 2 processes. We adopt a model-independent approach in which we only require family-universal charges for the first and second generations and small fermion mixing angles. We analyze the constraints on the resulting parameter space from B-s - (B) over bar (s) mixing and the time-dependent CP asymmetries of the penguin-dominated B-d -> (pi, phi, eta', rho, omega, f(0)) K-S decays. Our results indicate that the currently observed discrepancies in some of these modes with respect to the Standard Model predictions can be consistently accommodated within this general class of models.

DE Supersymmetry Breaking; Gauge-gravity correspondence
ID DYNAMICAL SUPERSYMMETRY BREAKING; STRING THEORY; GRAVITY; MODEL
AB We discuss gravitational backgrounds where supersymmetry is broken at the end of a warped throat, and the SUSY-breaking is transmitted to the Standard Model via gauginos which live in (part of) the bulk of the throat geometry. We find that the leading effect arises from splittings of certain "messenger mesons," which are adjoint KK-modes of the D-branes supporting the Standard Model gauge group. This picture is a gravity dual of a strongly coupled field theory where SUSY is broken in a hidden sector and transmitted to the Standard Model via a relative of semi-direct gauge mediation.

AB The J/psi decay angular distributions have been measured in inelastic photoproduction in ep collisions with the ZEUS detector at HERA, using an integrated luminosity of 468 pb(-1). The range in photon-proton centre-of-mass energy, W, was 50 < W < 180 GeV. The J/psi mesons were identified through their decay into muon pairs. The polar and azimuthal angles of the mu(+) were measured in the J/psi rest frame and compared to theoretical predictions at leading and next-to-leading order in QCD.

AB We study a statistical model defined by a conformally invariant distribution of overlapping spheres in arbitrary dimension d. The model arises as the asymptotic distribution of cosmic bubbles in d + 1 dimensional de Sitter space, and also as the asymptotic distribution of bubble collisions with the domain wall of a fiducial "observation bubble" in d + 2 dimensional de Sitter space. In this note we calculate the 2-, 3-, and 4-point correlation functions of exponentials of the "bubble number operator" analytically in d = 2. We find that these correlators are free of infrared divergences, covariant under the global conformal group, charge conserving, and transform with positive conformal dimensions that are related in a novel way to the charge. Although by themselves these operators probably do not define a full-fledged conformal field theory, one can use the partition function on a sphere to compute an approximate central charge in the 2D case. The theory in any dimension has a noninteracting limit when the nucleation rate of the bubbles in the bulk is very large. The theory in two dimensions is related to some models of continuum percolation, but it is conformal for all values of the tunneling rate.

AB We study QCD-like four dimensional theories in the theoretically controlled framework of deformation theory and/or twisted partition function on S-1 x R-3. By using duality, we show that a class of one-flavor theories exhibit new physical phenomena: discrete chiral symmetry breaking (chi SB) induced by the condensation of topological disorder operators, and confinement and the generation of mass gap due to new non-selfdual topological excitations. In the R-4 limit, we argue that the mass gap disappears, the chi SB vacua are of runaway type, and the theory flows to a CFT. We also study mixed-representation theories and find abelian chi SB by topological operators charged under abelian chiral symmetries. These are reminiscent to, but distinct, from Seiberg-Witten theory with matter, where 4d monopoles have non-abelian chiral charge. This examination also helps us refine our recent bounds on the conformal window. In an appendix, we also discuss mixed vectorlike/chiral representation theories, obtain bounds on their conformal windows, and compare with the all-order beta function results of arXiv:0911.0931.

AB P>Incorporating the beneficial use of industrial by-products into the industrial ecology of an urban region as a substitute or supplement for natural aggregate can potentially reduce life cycle impacts. This article specifically looks at the utilization of industrial by-products (IBPs) (coal ash, foundry sand, and foundry slag) as aggregate for roadway sub-base construction for the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, urban region. The scenarios compare the use of virgin aggregate with the use of a combination of both virgin and IBP aggregate, where the aggregate material is selected based on proximity to the construction site and allows for minimization of transportation impacts. The results indicate that the use of IBPs to supplement virgin aggregate on a regional level has the potential of reducing impacts related to energy use, global warming potential, and emissions of nitrogen oxides (NO(x)), sulfur dioxide (SO(2)), carbon monoxide (CO), PM(10) (particulate matter-10 microns), mercury (Hg), and lead (Pb). Regional management of industrial by-products would allow for the incorporation of these materials into the industrial ecology of a region and reduce impacts from the disposal of the IBP materials and the extraction of virgin materials and minimize the impacts from transportation. The combination of reduced economic and environmental costs provides a strong argument for state transportation agencies to develop symbiotic relationships with large IBP producers in their regions to minimize impacts associated with roadway construction and maintenance-with the additional benefit of improved management of these materials.

AB Detectors based on the bulk-Micromegas technology exhibit position resolution better than 100 m m at counting rates of up to several tens of kHz/cm(2), along with trigger capabilities. These characteristics, combined with the detector's mechanical robustness and the possibility for cost-effective industrial production, makes them a promising candidate for the ATLAS Muon Spectrometer upgrade in a future luminosity enhancement of the LHC. The R&D project status will be presented together with the obtained results in the effort to define the baseline system specifications.

AB The Tevatron in Collider Run II (2001-present) is operating with six times more bunches and many times higher beam intensities and luminosities than in Run I (1992-1995). Beam diagnostics were crucial for the machine start-up and the never-ending luminosity upgrade campaign. We present the overall picture of the Tevatron diagnostics development for Run II, outline machine needs for new instrumentation, present several notable examples that led to Tevatron performance improvements, and discuss the lessons for future colliders.

AB The non-proportional dependence of a scintillator's light yield on primary particle energy is believed to be influenced crucially by the interplay of non-linear kinetic terms in the radiative and non-radiative decay of excitations versus locally deposited excitation density. A calculation of energy deposition, -dE/dx, along the electron track for Nal is Presented for an energy range from several election-volt to 1 MeV. Such results can be used to specify an initial excitation distribution, if diffusion is neglected. All exactly solvable two-channel (exciton and hole(electron)) model containing 1st and 2nd order kinetic terms is constructed and used to illustrate important features seen in non-proportional light-yield curves, including a dependence on pulse shaping (detection gate width).

Remarkable efficiency of polarization transfer can be achieved at MAS rates exceeding 40 kHz, which is instrumental in these measurements. Schemes utilizing direct and indirect detection of heteronuclei are compared in terms of resolution and sensitivity. A simple procedure for optimization of (1)H homonuclear decoupling sequences under these conditions is proposed. The capabilities of these techniques were confirmed on two naturally abundant solids, tripeptide N-formyl-L-methionyl-L-leucyl-L-phenylalanine (f-MLF-OH) and brown coal. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc.

AB In a carbon-free economy, nuclear power will surely play a fundamental role as a clean and cost-competitive energy source. However, new-generation nuclear concepts involve temperature and irradiation conditions for which no experimental facility exists, making it exceedingly difficult to predict structural materials performance and lifetime. Although the gap with real materials is still large, advances in computing power over the last decade have enabled the development of accurate and efficient numerical algorithms materials simulations capable of probing the challenging conditions expected in future nuclear environments. One of the most important issues in metallic structural materials is the degradation of their mechanical properties under irradiation. Mechanical properties are intimately related to the glide resistance of dislocations, which can be increased severalfold due to irradiation-produced defects. Here, we present a combined multiscale study of dislocation-irradiation obstacle interactions in a model system (Cu) using atomistic and dislocation dynamics simulations. Scaling laws generalizing material behavior are extracted from our results, which are then compared with experimental measurements of irradiation hardening in Cu, showing good agreement.

AB Nanosilica/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites are used to improve the mechanical properties of neat PMMA polymer. In order to obtain superior mechanical properties, it is essential to achieve good bonding between the SiO(2) nanoparticles and the PMMA matrix, which is typically achieved by coating silica nanoparticles with silane coupling agents. In this study, conventional and supercritical coating methods were investigated together with their influence on the mechanical properties of the obtained nanosilica/PMMA composites. The results indicate advantageous properties of nanosilica modified in the supercritical phase of carbon dioxide and ethanol in terms of particle size distribution, amount of coated silane, and dispersion in the PMMA matrix. Careful dispersion of the starting silica nanoparticles in ethanol at low temperatures in order to obtain a nanosilica sol plays an important role in deagglomeration, dispersion, and the coating process. The resulting nanosilica/PMMA composite containing nanoparticles obtained by supercritical processing of the nanosilica sol showed an increase in hardness by 44.6% and elastic modulus by 25.7% relative to neat PMMA, as determined using the nanoindentation technique. The dynamic mechanical analysis reveals that addition of nanoparticles as nanosilica sol and nanosilica gel enhances composite storage modulus by about 54.3 and 46.5% at 40 A degrees C. At the same temperature, incorporation of modified silica nanoparticles with conventional method leads to an increase of 15.9% for the storage modulus, probably due to a large silica particle size and lower silane content in this sample.

AB This study describes a method that can predict the hardness minimum location as a function of natural aging time in a heat-treatable 6061-T6 Al alloy plate subjected to friction stir welding (FSW). First, temperature distributions were simulated in the FSW plate by finite element modeling. Second, to determine the natural aging kinetics, hardness changes were measured as a function of natural aging time from a number of Al specimens that had been isothermally heat treated at different peak temperatures. Finally, the simulated temperature profiles and the natural aging kinetics were correlated to predict the hardness profiles in the FSW plate. The predicted hardness minimum locations are consistent with the measured hardness profiles in that the hardness moves away from the weld centerline as the aging time increases. Moreover, the predicted hardness minimum is located at the similar position of failure in cross-weld tensile samples.

AB In this paper, we have fabricated and tested several composite materials with a mesh matrix, which are used as encapsulation materials for a novel implantable movable-microelectrode microelectromechanical-system (MEMS) device. Since movable microelectrodes extend off the edge of the MEMS chip and penetrate the brain, a hermetically sealed encapsulation was not feasible. An encapsulation material is needed to prevent cerebral-spinal-fluid entry that could cause failure of the MEMS device and, at the same time, allow for penetration by the microelectrodes. Testing of potential encapsulation materials included penetration-force measurements, gross-leak testing, maximum-pressure testing, and biocompatibility testing. Penetration-force tests showed that untreated mesh matrices and silicone-gel-mesh composites required the least amount of force to penetrate for both nylon 6,6 and polypropylene meshes. The silicone-gel-, poly(dimethylsiloxane)-, polyimide-, and fluoroacrylate-mesh composites with the nylon-mesh matrix were all able to withstand pressures above the normal intracranial pressures. Fourier-transform infrared-spectroscopy analysis and visual inspection of the implanted devices encapsulated by the silicone-gel-mesh composite showed that there was no fluid or debris entry at two and four weeks postimplantation. We conclude that a composite of nylon and silicone-gel meshes will meet the needs of the new generation of implantable devices that require nonhermetic encapsulation.

AB Laser Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy were used to study the evolution of composition of oxide films in the presence of zirconia coatings on miniature HT-9 alloy specimens subjected to elevated temperature in air. The experiments expanded on previous efforts to develop a quick-screening technique for candidate alloys for cladding materials (HT-9) and actinide-based mixed oxide fuel mixtures (represented by the zirconia coating) by investigating the effect of both coating composition and annealing conditions on the high temperature reactions. In particular, the presence of the element Ga (a potential impurity in mixed oxide fuel) in the initial zirconia coating was found to accelerate the rate of oxide growth relative to that of yttria-stabilized zirconia studied previously. In addition, HT-9 samples that were subjected to different annealing conditions gave different results. The results suggest that the presence of Ga in a mixed oxide fuel will enhance the oxidation of HT-9 cladding under the conditions of this study, although the extent of enhancement is influenced by the type of annealing previously applied to the cladding material. Due to the multi-component layered structure of the oxidation products discovered in this fuel-cladding combination, it appears unlikely that Raman spectroscopy would be applicable as a stand-alone technique for the intended quick-screening approach to all but the simplest systems. Other techniques with better depth resolution, such as photoelectron spectroscopy, are required to follow the changes in composition of individual layers as they evolve during the oxidation process.

AB High availability data storage systems are critical for many applications as research and business become more data driven. Since metadata management is essential to system availability, multiple metadata services are used to improve the availability of distributed storage systems. Past research has focused on the active/standby model, where each active service has at least one redundant idle backup. However, interruption of service and even some loss of service state may occur during a fail-over depending oil the replication technique used. In addition, the replication overhead for multiple metadata services call be very high. The research in this paper targets the symmetric active/active replication model, which uses Multiple redundant service nodes running in virtual synchrony. In this model, service node failures do not Cause a fail-over to a backup and there is no disruption of service or loss of service state. A fast delivery protocol is further discussed to reduce the latency of the total order broadcast needed. The prototype implementation shows that metadata service high availability call be achieved with all acceptable performance trade-off using the symmetric active/active metadata service Solution.

AB Addition of light rare earth elements in small amounts to refractory metal based alloys (e.g., Cr) can increase both ductility and creep resistance of an alloy because the additives absorb residual oxygen in the alloy by forming oxides that can serve as dispersion strengtheners. In this work, three binary systems, Cr-Ce, Cr-La and Cr-Y, were thermodynamically assessed based on limited experimental data available in the literature using the CALPHAD method. Self-consistent and reasonable thermodynamic descriptions for all three systems were obtained. More importantly, two predictions are made: a peritectic reaction in the La-rich side of Cr-La system and a catatectic reaction in the Y-rich side of Cr-Y system. These predictions and the developed databases are subject to future experiments that are needed to clarify several discrepancies in these binaries.

AB A linear stability analysis of the inviscid stratified Boussinesq equations is presented given a steady zonal flow with constant vertical shear in a tilted f plane. Full nonhydrostatic terms are included: 1) acceleration of vertical velocity and 2) Coriolis force terms arising from the meridional component of earth's rotation vector. Calculations of growth rates, critical wavenumbers, and dominance regimes for baroclinic and symmetric instabilities are compared with results from the traditional nonhydrostatic equations, which include a strictly vertical rotation vector, as well as results from the hydrostatic equations. The authors find that for positive zonal z shear, tilted rotation enhances the dominance regime of symmetric instabilities at the expense of baroclinic instabilities and maintains symmetric instabilities at larger scales than previously indicated. Furthermore, in contrast to former studies, it is determined that hydrostatic growth rates for both instabilities are not maximal. Rather, growth rates peak in the fully nonhydrostatic equations for parameter regimes physically relevant and consistent with abyssal ocean stratifications and weak zonal z shears and oceanic measurements of the Labrador Sea and Southern Ocean. In addition, the authors find that zonal shear modifies the frequency range of subinertial inertio-gravity waves. Tilted rotation effects break the base flow shear reflection symmetry present in the traditional and hydrostatic models. Thus, only in the fully nonhydrostatic model does weak negative zonal z shear stabilize the flow and decrease the subinertial frequency range.

AB In nuclear chiral perturbation theory (chi PT), an operator is defined in a space with a cutoff which may be varied within a certain range. The operator runs as a result of the variation of the cutoff (renormalization group (RG) running). In order for chi PT to be useful, the operator should run in a way consistent with the counting rule, that is, the running of chiral counter terms has to be of natural size. We vary the cutoff using the Wilsonian renormalization group (WRG) equation and examine this consistency. As an example, we study the s-wave pion production operator for N N -> d pi, derived in chi PT. We demonstrate that the WRG running does not generate any chiral-symmetry-violating (CSV) interaction, provided that we start with an operator which does not contain a CSV term. We analytically show how the counter terms are generated in the WRG running in the case of the infinitesimal cutoff reduction. Based on the analytic result, we argue a range of the cutoff variation for which the running of the counter terms is of natural size. Then, we numerically confirm this.

ID LITHIUM/OXYGEN BATTERY; ORGANIC ELECTROLYTE; ENCAPSULATION
AB The rapid development of portable electronic devices increasingly requires much more energy to support advanced functions. However, currently available batteries do not meet the high energy requirement of these devices. Metal/air batteries, especially Li/air batteries, have a much higher specific energy than most other available batteries, but their power rate is limited by the accumulation of reaction products in the air electrode. Several approaches to improve the power rate of Li/air batteries have been analyzed in this work, including adjustment of air electrode porosity and catalyst reactivity distributions to minimize diffusion limitations and maximize air electrode material utilization. An interconnected dual pore system (one catalyzed and one non-catalyzed) is proposed to improve oxygen transport into the inner regions of the air electrode. but this approach alone cannot supply high power for long term applications. A time-release multiple catalyst approach is analyzed to provide temporal release of reactivity in the air electrode. When coupled with the dual pore configuration and catalysts with high reactivities, the time-release catalyst concept can extend the duration of higher powers to longer times, and result in maximum utilization of air electrode materials.

AB Carbon nanosheets are comprised of 1-7 graphene layers that are predominantly vertically oriented with respect to a substrate. The thickness and morphology of the nanosheets can vary depending on the growth precursor and the substrate temperature. They have an ultra-low in-plane resistivity. The capacitance of carbon nanosheets was measured by cyclic voltammetry in a standard electrochemical three-electrode cell, which contains a platinum counter electrode and a standard mercury/mercurous sulfate reference electrode in 6 M H(2)SO(4) electrolyte. As a working electrode, the capacitance of carbon nanosheets per area was found to be 0.076 F cm(-2). A mathematical model was used to simulate the total possible capacitance of a virtual supercapacitor cell that contains carbon nanosheets as the electrode material and found to be 1.49 x 10(4)F.

AB We establish an on-line optimization framework to exploit weather forecast information in the operation of energy systems. We argue that anticipating the weather conditions can lead to more proactive and cost-effective operations. The framework is based on the solution of a stochastic dynamic real-time optimization (D-RTO) problem incorporating forecasts generated from a state-of-the-art weather prediction model. The necessary uncertainty information is extracted from the weather model using an ensemble approach. The accuracy of the forecast trends and uncertainty bounds are validated using real meteorological data. We present a numerical simulation study in a building system to demonstrate the developments.

AB The Spectral Deconvolution Analysis Tool (SDAT) software was developed to improve counting statistics and detection limits for nuclear explosion radionuclide measurements. SDAT utilizes spectral deconvolution spectroscopy techniques and can analyze both beta-gamma coincidence spectra for radioxenon isotopes and high-resolution HPGe spectra from aerosol monitors. The deconvolution algorithm of the SDAT requires a library of beta-gamma coincidence spectra of individual radioxenon isotopes to determine isotopic ratios in a sample. In order to get experimentally produced spectra of the individual isotopes, we have irradiated enriched samples of (130)Xe, (132)Xe, and (134)Xe gas with a neutron beam from the TRIGA reactor at The University of Texas. The samples were counted in an Automated Radioxenon Sampler/Analyzer (ARSA) style beta-gamma coincidence detector. The spectra produced show that this method of radioxenon production yields samples with very high purity of the individual isotopes for (131m)Xe and (135)Xe and a sample with a substantial (133m)Xe to (133)Xe ratio.

AB Measurement of radioactive xenon in the atmosphere is one of several techniques to detect nuclear weapons testing. For high sensitivity, some existing systems use beta/gamma coincidence detection to suppress background, which is very effective, but increases complexity due to separate beta and gamma detectors that require careful calibration and gain matching. In this paper, we will describe the development and evaluation of a simpler detector system, named PhosWatch, consisting of a CsI(Tl)/BC-404 phoswich well detector, digital readout electronics, and pulse shape analysis algorithms implemented in a digital signal processor on the electronics, and compare its performance to existing multi-detector systems.

AB The monitoring of atmospheric radioxenon to ensure compliance with the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) has driven the development of improved detectors for measuring xenon, including the development of a phoswich detector. This detector uses only one PMT to detect beta-gamma coincidence, thus greatly reducing the bulk and electronics of the detector in comparison to the ARSA-type detector. In this experiment, (135)Xe was produced through neutron activation and a phoswich detector was used to attain spectra from the gas. These results were compared to similar results from an ARSA-type beta-gamma coincidence spectrum. The spectral characteristics and resolution were compared for the coincidence and beta spectra. Using these metrics, the overall performance of the phoswich detector for beta-gamma coincidence of radioxenon was evaluated.

AB Pacific Northwest National Laboratory uses beta-gamma coincidence detectors in a number of xenon sampling and measurement systems to enable simultaneous, sensitive measurements of Xe-131, Xe-133, Xe-133m, and Xe-135 for treaty monitoring applications. In recent years, a new style of beta-gamma detector was developed to improve upon the detector module used in the Automated Radioxenon Sampler/Analyzer. The results of an MCNP5 Monte Carlo simulation of the new detector cell are presented, with particular emphasis on the identification of an energy deposition sequence with the potential to introduce significant error into the detector efficiency calibration. This sequence occurs when an 81 keV gamma from Xe-133 is absorbed in an inactive region of the CsI(Na) scintillator, followed by emission of a 31 keV X-ray from cesium (or possibly a 28.5 keV X-ray from iodine). These X-rays add excess counts into the 31 keV peak observed in the decay of Xe-133. The impact of this effect on different efficiency calibration techniques is discussed.

spectroscopy; High resolution gamma spectroscopy; Intrinsic germanium
array; Gamma coincidence detection
AB Physics experiments, environmental surveillance, and treaty verification techniques continue to require increased sensitivity for detecting and quantifying radionuclides of interest. This can be done by detecting a greater fraction of gamma emissions from a sample (higher detection efficiency) and reducing instrument backgrounds. A current effort for increased sensitivity in high resolution gamma spectroscopy will produce an intrinsic germanium (HPGe) array designed for high detection efficiency, ultra-low-background performance, and useful coincidence efficiencies. The system design is optimized to accommodate filter paper samples, e.g. samples collected by the Radionuclide Aerosol Sampler/Analyzer (RASA). The system will provide high sensitivity for weak collections on atmospheric filter samples, as well as offering the potential to gather additional information from more active filters using gamma cascade coincidence detection. The current effort is constructing an ultra-low-background HPGe crystal array consisting of two vacuum cryostats, each housing a hexagonal array of 7 crystals on the order of 70% relative efficiency per crystal. Traditional methods for constructing ultra-low-background detectors are used, including use of materials known to be low in radioactive contaminants, use of ultra pure reagents, clean room assembly, etc. The cryostat will be constructed mainly from copper electroformed into near-final geometry at PNNL. Details of the detector design, simulation of efficiency and coincidence performance, HPGe crystal testing, and progress on cryostat construction are presented.

AB This work provides an assessment of suitable forensic indicators that may be measured by portable mass spectrometry systems. Traditional assessments of nuclear fuel cycle manipulation or other nuclear activities often depend upon analyses of uranium and plutonium isotopes in the nuclear fuel. Any entity engaging in shortened fuel cycle activity will recover U and Pu during reprocessing. Fission, capture, and activation products are less valuable and generally regarded as waste products. This work determined isotopic ratios that distinguish nuclear weapons and shortened nuclear fuel cycles from commercial nuclear reactors. Modeling of fuel cycles was conducted via ORIGEN-S, MCNPX, and through custom calculations.

AB The Spectral Deconvolution Analysis Tool (SDAT) software was developed at The University of Texas at Austin. SDAT utilizes a standard spectrum technique for the analysis of beta-gamma coincidence spectra. Testing was performed on the software to compare the standard spectrum analysis technique with a region of interest (ROI) analysis technique. Experimentally produced standard spectra and sample data were produced at the Nuclear Engineering Teaching Laboratory (NETL) TRIGA reactor. The results of the testing showed that the standard spectrum technique had lower errors than the ROI analysis technique for samples with low counting statistics. In contrast, the ROI analysis technique outperformed the standard spectrum technique in high counting statistics samples. It was also shown that the standard spectrum technique benefitted from a compression of the number of channels within the spectra.

AB By making modifications to our previously established measurement setup, we increased our abundance sensitivity for U-233 by three orders of magnitude and can now measure U-233/U-238 ratios as low as 10(-13). Because U-233 has separate production pathways than U-236, it can provide valuable information on the particular source of anthropogenic uranium in a sample. We demonstrated the utility of our improved capability by using U-233 to distinguish separate sources of anthropogenic uranium in a set of samples collected from a contaminated site. In the future, we plan to apply our new capability to characterizing U-233 in a wide range of uranium materials.

AB Aerosol samples collected on filter media were analyzed using HPGe detectors employing varying background-reduction techniques in order to experimentally evaluate the opportunity to apply ultra-low background measurement methods to samples collected, for instance, by the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty International Monitoring System (IMS). In this way, realistic estimates of the impact of low-background methodology on the sensitivity obtained in systems such as the IMS were assessed. The current detectability requirement of stations in the IMS is 30 mu Bq/m(3) of air for (140)Ba, which would imply similar to 10(6) fissions per daily sample. Importantly, this is for a fresh aerosol filter. One week of decay reduces the intrinsic background from radon daughters in the sample allowing much higher sensitivity measurement of relevant isotopes, including (131)I. An experiment was conducted in which decayed filter samples were measured at a variety of underground locations using Ultra-Low Background (ULB) gamma spectroscopy technology. The impacts of the decay and ULB are discussed.

AB Absolute efficiency calibration of radiometric detectors is frequently difficult and requires careful detector modeling and accurate knowledge of the radioactive source used. In the past we have calibrated the beta-gamma coincidence detector of the Automated Radioxenon Sampler/Analyzer (ARSA) using a variety of sources and techniques which have proven to be less than desirable (Reeder et al., J Radioanal Nucl Chem, 235, 1989). A superior technique has been developed that uses the conversion-electron (CE) and X-ray coincidence of Xe-131m to provide a more accurate absolute gamma efficiency of the detector. The Xe-131m is injected directly into the beta cell of the coincident counting system and no knowledge of absolute source strength is required. In addition, Xe-133 is used to provide a second independent means to obtain the absolute efficiency calibration. These two data points provide the necessary information for calculating the detector efficiency and can be used in conjunction with other noble gas isotopes to completely characterize and calibrate the ARSA nuclear detector. In this paper we discuss the techniques and results that we have obtained.

AB Following the claimed nuclear test in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on October 9, 2006, and a reported seismic event, a mobile system for sampling of atmospheric xenon was transported to the Republic of South Korea (ROK) in an attempt to detect possible emissions of radioxenon in the region from a presumed test. Five samples were collected in the ROK during October 11-14, 2006 near the ROK-DPRK border, and thereafter transported to the Swedish Defense Research Agency (FOI) in Stockholm, Sweden, for analysis. Following the initial measurements, an automatic radioxenon sampling and analysis system was installed at the same location in the ROK, and measurements on the ambient atmospheric radioxenon background in the region were performed during November 2006 to February 2007. The measured radioxenon concentrations strongly indicate that the explosion in October 9, 2006 was a nuclear test. The conclusion is further strengthened by atmospheric transport models. Radioactive xenon measurement was the only independent confirmation that the supposed test was in fact a nuclear explosion and not a conventional (chemical) explosive.

AB Based on the encouraging results of our initial efforts to develop a Sr-90 accelerator mass spectrometry capability, we have undertaken efforts to enhance our system. By changing some key operating parameters and constructing an optimized detector we were able to improve the discrimination of Sr-90 from the isobaric interference Zr-90 and reduce our instrumental background by nearly two orders of magnitude. Our current background (4 x 10(6) atoms, 3 mBq) is comparable to that achievable by decay counting, but is still a factor of ten higher than what is theoretically predicted based on the efficiency of our system. Therefore, future plans include implementation of a time-of-flight system to improve the rejection of Zr-90.

AB Ground litter samples were collected and analyzed for radioiodine ((129)I) content from distances of 1.4-128 km away from the Savannah River Site nuclear fuel reprocessing facility. Analysis methods consisted of thermo-chromatographic separation of the iodine from the sample matrix followed by isotope dilution thermal ionization mass spectrometry (ID-TIMS). The results indicate that measurable quantities of radioiodine are released and that the accumulation decreases as a function of distance from the source in agreement with a simple approximation described in the United Nations Scientific Committee on the Effects of Atomic Radiation (UNSCEAR) report.

AB Analysis of plutonium isotopes by Semiconductor Alpha Spectrometry (SAS), ICP-sector field mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and Accelerator Mass Spectrometry (AMS) was carried out in seawater samples collected from the Northeast Atlantic Ocean (nuclear waste dumping sites) and Northwest Pacific Ocean. No particularly elevated levels of the atom ratios of (240)Pu/(239)Pu compared to global fallout ratio (0.18) were found in the Northeast Atlantic Ocean seawater samples. The higher levels of atom ratios of (240)Pu/(239)Pu were found in the Northwest Pacific Ocean. This is mainly due to contribution from the local fallout from nuclear weapon tests carried out at the Pacific Proving Grounds at the Marshall Islands.

AB Radiation detectors used to search for the existence of exceptionally rare phenomena, such as double-beta decay and dark matter interactions, as well as tiny traces of environmental radioactivity, require the elimination of background signals. Modern detection systems created from ultra pure materials and operated deep underground may be sensitive enough to "see" these rare phenomena, but background activity in Pb gamma-ray shielding could still be a critical stumbling block owing to alpha and beta emissions of Pb, Bi, and Po in the mass 210 chain. To minimize the probability of overwhelming activity from Pb, the alpha activity of (210)Pb is quantified. However, a reliable quantification procedure that does not require large volumes of chemicals has not yet been established. Two procedures created for this purpose have been tested for the quantification of alpha activity in lead. Both procedures were designed to start with less than 10 g Pb samples to reduce reagents needed and combined precipitation with column separation to isolate (210)Pb, followed by alpha spectrometry. One procedure shows promise for obtaining high recoveries and good separation.

AB Nitrogen fluorescence induced by radiation can be used to detect the presence of radioactive contamination in the environment. Contamination quantification from the fluorescence signal requires: the source's effective alpha spectrum; the specific radiation quantum fluorescence efficiency; optical attenuation length in air of the fluorescence signal; the absolute throughput and quantum efficiency of the optical instrumentation; calibration of the instrumentation; and radiation transport modeling of the "effective" array exposure rate given the alpha particle spectrum. Field testing conducted on optical instrumentation measured the nitrogen fluorescence yield generated by (241)Am alpha emissions. Laboratory studies of (241)Am via alpha spectrometry determined whether the presence of solids on source surfaces produced sufficient self-absorption to decrease fluorescence. Results from the laboratory studies provided correction to the effective alpha-source activity values in a model of the earlier optical-sensor field measurements, and determined the air fluorescence efficiency of alpha particles generated by the (241)Am sources used in the field experiments.

AB The multiple isotope material basis set (MIMBS) method for isotope identification combines the material basis set (MBS) model of gamma spectrum attenuation with ordinary response function fitting to identify shielded gamma-emitting isotopes, using low and medium resolution gamma detectors such as NaI and LaBr(3). Although MIMBS has been shown to outperform conventional isotope identification algorithms that do not correct for attenuation effects, it has difficulty identifying low energy emitters such as (57)Co or (241)Am. In this article we examine the use of optimized multiple attenuator thicknesses in generating basis spectra for each isotope to obtain better modeling of the low energy spectrum while simultaneously extending the range of the model to thicker attenuators. The effectiveness of the multiple thickness MIMBS algorithm in improving isotope identification rates compared with the original MIMBS method is demonstrated with analyses of simulated gamma spectra. The identification rates obtained with the MIMBS methods are compared to those obtained using the commercial peak-based ScintiVision NaI analysis software.

AB Time series of data from radiation portal monitors are evaluated for radioactive sources by comparing background to vehicle spectra over time with a "spectral-distance" metric, isolating the contribution of anomalous radiation. This may diminish systematic fluctuations from vehicular background attenuation and allow time-shape filtering for discriminating compact sources. To examine this, a wavelet function similar in size to the expected source profile filters the spectral-distance output. Spectra from chosen isotopes are injected into data from a U.S. port of entry. The resulting data are analyzed with gross-counting, spectral-distance, and spatial algorithms. Combined spectral/spatial filtering is shown to enhance sensitivity and discrimination of compact versus distributed sources.

AB We are developing a medium-resolution autonomous in situ gamma detection system for marine and coastal waters. The system is designed to extract and preconcentrate isotopes of interest from natural waters prior to detection in order to eliminate signal attenuation of the gamma rays traveling through water and lower the overall background from the presence of naturally occurring radioactive isotopes ((40)K and U-Th series radionuclides). Filtration is used to preconcentrate target isotopes residing on suspended particles, while chemosorption is employed to preferentially extract truly dissolved components from the water column. Used filter and chemosorbent media will be counted autonomously using two LaBr(3) detectors in a near 4-pi configuration around the samples. A compact digital pulse processing system, developed in-house and capable of running in coincidence mode, is used to process the signal from the detectors to a small on-board computer. The entire system is extremely compact (9aEuro(3) dia. x 30aEuro(3) len.) and platform independent, but designed for initial deployment on a research buoy. A variety of commercial and in-house nano-porous chemosorbents have been selected, procured or produced, and these and filter and detector components have been tested.

AB This work addresses the energy spectrum correction due to increased charge carrier collection times in larger HPGe spectrometers. The energy of the radiation interaction is expected to be proportional to the total collected charge. This is increasingly not true with larger HPGe spectrometers. Some charge is lost as the total charge travels from the interaction location to the collection electrode. This path dependent loss of charge results in decreased energy resolution. In HPGe spectrometers, this process is characterized by the charge carrier lifetime constant and is given as an exponential function of the charge carrier collection time divided by this constant. Thus large detectors can experience exponential decrease in energy resolution as charge carrier collection time increases. We studied the effect of charge carrier lifetime on energy resolution for a p-type point contact HPGe spectrometers using pulse shape analysis. We present a method using the rise time to correct for the charge carrier lifetime on a pulse by pulse basis for a given HPGe spectrometer.

AB When Pu-239 and U-235 undergo thermal neutron-induced fission, both produce significant numbers of beta-delayed gamma rays with energies in the several megaelectron volt range. Experiments using high energy-resolution germanium detectors have shown that it is possible to distinguish the fission of Pu-239 from that of U-235. It is desirable to detect the presence of U-235 or Pu-239 using detectors that are less expensive and more rugged than high purity germanium detectors. To this end we demonstrate how differences in the energy spectrum and decay rates of the beta-delayed gamma rays can be used to identify Pu-239 and U-235 using low resolution plastic and liquid scintillator detectors. Experimental data are used to identify differences in the spectra and also to test the identification algorithms. Results to date are very promising.

AB Special considerations and techniques are desired for the preparation of small actinide counting sources. Counting sources have been prepared on metal disk substrates (planchets) with an active area of only 0.079 mm(2). This represents a 93.75% reduction in deposition area from standard electrodeposition methods. The actinide distribution upon the smaller planchet must remain thin and uniform to allow alpha particle emissions to escape the counting source with a minimal amount of self-attenuation. This work describes the development of micro-electrodeposition methods and optimization of the technique with respect to deposition time and current density for various planchet sizes.

AB We are developing superconducting ultrahigh resolution gamma-detectors for non-destructive analysis (NDA) of nuclear materials, and specifically for spent fuel characterization in nuclear safeguards. The detectors offer an energy resolution below 100 eV FWHM at 100 keV, and can therefore significantly increase the precision of NDA at low energies where line overlap affects the errors of the measurement when using germanium detectors. They also increase the peak-to-background ratio and thus improve the detection limits for weak gamma emissions from the fissile Pu and U isotopes at low energy in the presence of an intense Compton background from the fission products in spent fuel. Here we demonstrate high energy resolution and high peak-to-background ratio of our superconducting Gamma detectors, and discuss their relevance for measuring actinides in spent nuclear fuel.

AB A radioactive (137)Cs source has been analyzed for the radioactive parent (137)Cs and stable decay daughter (137)Ba. The ratio of the daughter to parent atoms is used to estimate the date when Cs was purified prior to source encapsulation (an "age" since purification). The isotopes were analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) after chemical separation. In addition, Ba was analyzed by isotope dilution ICP-MS (ID-ICP-MS). A detailed error analysis of the mass spectrometric work has been undertaken to identify areas of improvement, as well as quantifying the effect the errors have on the "age" determined. This paper reports an uncertainty analysis to identifying areas of improvement and alternative techniques that may reduce the uncertainties. In particular, work on isotope dilution using ICP-MS for the "age" determination of sealed sources is presented. The results will be compared to the original work done using external standards to calibrate the ICP-MS instrument.

AB Two Americium-Beryllium neutron sources were dismantled, sampled (sub-sampled) and analyzed via inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Characteristics such as "age" since purification, actinide content, trace metal content and inter and intra source composition were determined. The "age" since purification of the two sources was determined to be 25.0 and 25.4 years, respectively. The systematic uncertainties in the "age" determination were +/- 4% 2 sigma. The amount and isotopic composition of U and Pu varied substantially between the sub-samples of Source 2 (n = 8). This may be due to the physical means of sub-sampling or the way the source was manufactured. Source 1 was much more consistent in terms of content and isotopic composition (n = 3 sub-samples). The Be-Am ratio varied greatly between the two sources. Source 1 had an Am-Be ratio of 6.3 +/- A 52% (1 sigma). Source 2 had an Am-Be ratio of 9.81 +/- A 3.5% (1 sigma). In addition, the trace element content between the samples varied greatly. Significant differences were determined between Sources 1 and 2 for Sc, Sr, Y, Zr, Mo, Ba and W.

AB The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Guide to the expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM) was developed to meet the demand for a standardized way of evaluating and expressing uncertainties. The Davies and Gray (D&G) titrimetry method is routinely used in nuclear safeguards for uranium accountability measurement and a statement of the uncertainty that can reasonably be attributed to the measured assay value is therefore of importance. A mathematical model for an uncertainty evaluation of D&G measurements in compliance with ISO GUM is presented. This is illustrated by a numerical example and the utilization of the uncertainty budget is explored.

AB The calorimetry exchange (CALEX) program is administered by New Brunswick Laboratory (NBL). The main objective of the program is to provide an independent verification of the internal quality control practices in nuclear material safeguards facilities making plutonium accountability measurements by non-destructive calorimetry/gamma spectrometry techniques. Facilities measure the calorimetric power, and plutonium and (241)Am isotope abundances of CALEX program standards using routine accountability procedures. The measurement results as well as two other quantities (effective specific power and plutonium mass) calculated from these results are evaluated for accuracy (or bias) and precision. In this paper, a limited number of measurement results of a CALEX program standard (identified as Calex I) are evaluated with specific goals to identify a suitable method for uncertainty estimation and to identify the major contributors to the uncertainties. In order to achieve the goals, the Calex I measurement results were evaluated using two different methods: the first method confined to uncertainty estimation from random variations of the measurement results alone, and the second method providing a more comprehensive evaluation of uncertainties from both the measurements and the characterized values of the measured standard according to the Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement (GUM). The results of this study, and a subsequent study extended to a larger number of results in the CALEX program database, are expected to provide relevant input for developing the International Target Values for plutonium measurements by the calorimetry/gamma spectrometry method.

DE Nuclear forensics; ISO 17025; Certified reference materials
AB The admissibility of nuclear forensics measurements and opinions derived from them in US Federal and State courts are based on criteria established by the US Supreme Court in the case of Daubert v. Merrell Dow and the 2000 Amendment of Rule 702 of the Federal Rules of Evidence. These criteria are being addressed by new efforts that include the development of certified reference materials (CRMs) to provide the basis for analytical method development, optimization, calibration, validation, quality control, testing, readiness, and declaration of measurement uncertainties. Quality data is crucial for all stages of the program, from R&D, and database development, to actual casework. Weakness at any point in the program can propagate to reduce the confidence of final conclusions. The new certified reference materials will provide the necessary means to demonstrate a high level of metrological rigor for nuclear forensics evidence and will form a foundation for legally defensible nuclear chemical analysis. The CRMs will allow scientists to devise validated analytical methods, which can be corroborated by independent analytical laboratories. CRMs are required for ISO accreditation of many different analytical techniques which may be employed in the analysis of interdicted nuclear materials.

The concentration of U-234, U-235, U-236, and U-238 in soil digests were measured by mass spectrometry. Uranium isotopic composition of the soil at the two sample sites and depths is compared to previously measured concentrations of Pu-238, Pu-239, Pu-240, Pu-241, and Am-241. Implications for remediation of contaminated soils surrounding the SDA are discussed.

AB Runit Island on Enewetak Atoll was very heavily impacted by the U.S. nuclear testing campaign in the northern Marshall Islands (1946-58). The primary source of contamination on Runit Island was the 1958 Quince safety test where a large quantity of device plutonium (Pu) was scattered over the area near the GZ. A second low-yield device was detonated on the same site 10 days later, further disturbing the soil and leaving behind a very heterogeneous pattern of contamination including milligram-size particles of plutonium. A limited cleanup of the Fig-Quince zone was carried out in 1979. During this period, the effectiveness of the cleanup operations was primarily evaluated on the basis of bulk soil concentration data with little consideration given to the heterogeneity and long-term material-, biological-, and environmental-specific impacts of residual high activity (hot) particle contamination. The aim of the present study was twofold; (i) to characterize the levels and distribution of residual contamination in the Fig-Quince zone, and (ii) to develop pertinent data on the frequency distribution, elemental and isotopic composition, and physico-chemical properties of hot particles isolated from surface soils from Fig-Quince with a view towards providing recommendations on the future management and possible cleanup of the site. Today, Runit Island remains under an administrative quarantine.

AB Negative health effects of uranium taken into the human body are related to both the chemical toxicity of the metal and its radioactivity. A simple and reliable isotope dilution ICP-MS uranium bioassay technique was developed in this study. Use of this technique at Los Alamos National Laboratory has not been previously described. Dilute urine was introduced to a Perkin Elmer DRC II quadrupole ICP-MS via a PFA high solids nebulizer and a PFA cyclonic spray chamber cooled to 2 A degrees C. Urine samples acidified, digested, and diluted 5x generate a solution that is roughly 10% HNO(3) that can be analyzed by ICP-MS to measure uranium concentrations > 54 pg/mL and uranium isotopic ratios with high enough precision and accuracy to determine if the uranium in a urine sample is natural. A three-stage rinsing routine is run between each sample to minimize urine salt deposition and uranium memory effects. Regular use of this rinsing routine minimizes instrumental drift and has produced a running (238)U background of < 7 cps.

AB Understanding how environmental conditions may affect sample composition is critical to the interpretation of laboratory analyses from environmental sampling. We prepared a set of UO(2)F(2) particle samples from the hydrolysis of UF(6) and stored these samples in environmental chambers at different temperature, humidity and lighting conditions. The NanoSIMS ion microprobe was used to measure the UF(+)/U(+) secondary ion ratio of individual particles. Monitoring variations in this ratio may provide insights on changes in particle composition over time and in response to environmental exposure. This report presents the baseline measurements carried out on freshly-prepared particle samples to determine the initial amount of fluorine.

AB Extensive studies on ThO2(am) solubility were carried out as functions of a wide range of isosaccharinate concentrations (0.0002 to 0.2 mol.kg(-1)) at fixed pH values of about 6 and 12, and varying pH (ranging from 4.5 to 12) at fixed aqueous isosaccharinate concentrations of 0.008 mol.kg(-1) or 0.08 mol.kg(-1), to determine the aqueous complexes of isosaccharinate with Th(IV). The samples were equilibrated over periods ranging up to 69 days, and the data showed that, in most cases, steady-state concentrations were reached in < 15 days. The data were interpreted using the SIT model, and required the inclusion of mixed hydroxy-ISA complexes of Th(IV) [Th(OH)ISA(2+), Th(OH)(3)(ISA)(2)(-), and Th(OH)(4)(ISA)(2)(2-)] with log(10)K(0) = 12.5 +/- 0.5, 4.4 +/- 0.5 and -3.2 +/- 0.5 for the reactions:

and
ThO2(am)+ 2ISA(-) + 2H(2)O reversible arrow Th(OH)(4)(ISA)(2)(2-)
respectively.
Predictions based on these Th-ISA complexes agreed closely with the extensive experimental data developed in this study as well as the very limited (only at pH = 8.3) data from liquid-liquid extractions recently reported in the literature.

AB The elastic response of the layered perovskite system Ca2-xSrxRuO4 (0.2 < x < 2) has been studied as a function of temperature and doping concentration x using resonant ultrasound spectroscopy. The elastic constants c(11) and c(44) have been obtained for three polycrystalline samples (x=1.0, 0.5, and 0.3) and show a softening trend with increasing Ca-content. In addition, the temperature-dependence of the elastic response of five single-crystals (x=2.0, 1.9, 0.5, 0.3, and 0.2) has been measured. For 2.0 >= x >= 0.5, a dramatic softening over a wide temperature range is observed upon cooling, which is attributed to the rotational instability of RuO6 octahedra (for x=2.0 and 1.9) and the static rotation of the octahedra (for x=0.5). For the Ca-rich samples (x=0.3 and 0.2), the softening occurs in a very narrow temperature range, corresponding to the structural phase transition from high-temperature tetragonal to low-temperature orthorhombic symmetry.

AB A heated capillary inlet for an electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) interface was compared with shorter versions of the inlet to determine the effects on transmission and ionization efficiencies for low-flow (nano) electrosprays. Five different inlet lengths were studied, ranging from 6.4 to 1.3 cm. As expected, the electrospray current transmission efficiency increased with decreasing capillary length due to reduced losses to the inside walls of the capillary. This increase in transmission efficiency with shorter inlets was coupled with reduced desolvation of electrosprayed droplets. Surprisingly, as the inlet length was decreased, some analytes showed little or no increase in sensitivity, while others showed as much as a 15-fold gain. The variation was shown to be at least partially correlated with analyte mobilities, with the largest gains observed for higher mobility species, but also affected by solution conductivity, flow rate, and inlet temperature. Strategies for maximizing sensitivity while minimizing biases in ion transmission through the heated capillary interface are proposed.

AB Arctic communities are increasingly faced with social-ecological changes that act at variable speeds and spatial scales. Such changes will affect vital resources, particularly water supplies. Currently, there are few computational tools that integrate multiple social and environmental processes in order to aid communities' adaptation to change through decision support systems. This paper proposes a modeling and simulation approach that can integrate such processes at different spatiotemporal scales in order to address issues affecting community water supplies. In this paper, a modeling and simulation tool is developed and applied to a case study on the Seward Peninsula. Initial results, using both field observations and computation, show projected patterns of water use, perceptions of water availability, and long-term consumption trends. More broadly, the paper demonstrates the need for developing tools that address issues at the community level for better understanding human and hydrological interactions and policy decisions affecting water supplies.

AB Titanium dioxide (TiO2) coatings exhibit desirable properties as biocompatible coatings. In this paper we report on mechanical properties and deformation behavior of MOD nanotubes grown on pure titanium substrates through anodic oxidation. Characterization of the as-processed coatings was conducted using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Nanoindentation, using Interfacial Force Microscopy (IFM), was employed to probe the Young's modulus of the nanotubes. Using the IFM technique, the modulus of the nanotube coating may be measured with minimal contribution from the underlying Ti substrate. The modulus of the (TiO2) nanotube coating was estimated at 4-8 GPa. This technique was also used to study the inelastic deformation behavior of the nanotubes. (TiO2) nanotubes were found to inelastically deform by "tube crushing" in the immediate vicinity of indenter tip, increasing the local density. This increase in local density caused an increase in the Young's modulus from roughly 4 GPa to 30 GPa in the first 30 nm of indentation. Densification and the resulting increase in elastic modulus are related to the total work of inelastic deformation, irrespective of the loading history. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB The mechanical properties of structural biomaterials are determined by features at many length scales. One example is the presence of an organic adhesive in nacre. The organic material contains biopolymers with discrete domains that may unfold as the polymer is extended. A statistical model for the mechanical response of a single biopolymer with these characteristics is introduced and studied. The response to tensile strain under displacement-controlled and load-controlled conditions is examined. Under the assumption of irreversible unfolding, analytical expressions for the load at first unfolding were derived, and a transition in behavior was observed for fast and slow loading. For titin, under displacement controlled extension, this transition occurs at about S.2S pm/s. Published by Elsevier Ltd

AB In order to more clearly observe the bianisotropic effects due to fabrication-induced structural asymmetries in negative-index metamaterials based on a fishnet structure, it is necessary to measure the optical properties with symmetric substrate and superstrate bounding layers. This is accomplished in this report using an index-matching fluid and identical substrate and superstrate glass materials. (C) 2009 Optical Society of America

AB Coupling resonances can be used to control the phase-space configuration of a charged-particle beam. Here we study a compact storage ring, which enables one to achieve a wide variety of emittance manipulations. A simple analytic model and numerical examples are given to demonstrate the fundamental features of the coupled beam motion near resonance. As a possible application of the present idea, free-electron lasers (FELs) are studied. It is shown that, by employing a nonlinear coupling resonance, the phase-space distribution of an electron beam can be optimized for high FEL gain. A three-dimensional simulation code is used to confirm that the "conditioned" electron beam from the coupling storage ring improves the performance of the subsequent FEL system.

AB In this letter, we present a simple one-step, versatile, scalable chemical vapor deposition (CVD)-based process for the encapsulation and stabilization of a host of single or multicomponent supramolecular assemblies (protcoliposomes, microbubbles, lipid bilayers, and photosynthetic antennae complexes and other biological materials) to form functional hybrid nanobiomaterials. In each case, it is possible (i) to form thin silica layers or gels controllably that enable the preservation of the supramolecular assembly over time and under adverse environmental conditions and (ii) to tune the structure of the silica gels so as to optimize solute accessibility while at the same time preserving functional dynamic properties of the encapsulated phospholipid assembly. The process allows precise temporal and spatial control of silica polymerization kinetics through the control of precursor delivery at room temperature and does not require or produce high concentrations of injurious chemicals that can compromise the function of biomolecular assemblies; it also does not require additives. This process differs from the conventional sol-gel process in that it does not involve the use of cosolvents (alcohols) and catalysts (acid or base).

AB Using geoid anomalies determined from satellite observations of the South American plate, we demonstrate the existence of a lithospheric flexural forebulge east of the High Andes. Using the planform and location of the geoid anomalies and accounting for the curvature of the Andean orogen, we can successfully model plate flexure using a uniform elastic thickness. Topography above 3 km elevation between -5 degrees and -30 degrees latitude in the Andes loads the margin of the western side of the Precambrian shield of the continental plate and drives bending of the cratonic plate. Removal of horizontal wavelengths greater than 4500 km from the geoid anomaly reveals a 5-7 m positive anomaly paralleling the trend of the orogen some 400 km east of the mountain front. We interpret the secondary geoid high as a flexural forebulge that developed in response to topographic loading of the South American plate by the Andes. While the topographic expression of this forebulge is hidden by the alluvium shed from the Andes and the vegetative cover of the Amazon jungle, our filtered geoid anomalies and a three-dimensional, single-plate flexural model in spherical geometry are both well fit by a single model with similar to 50 km effective elastic thickness.

AB Although surfaces or, more precisely, the surface atomic and electronic structure, determine the way materials interact with their environment, the influence of surface chemistry on the bulk of the material is generally considered to be small. However, in the case of high surface area materials such as nanoporous solids, surface properties can start to dominate the overall material behavior. This allows one to create new materials with physical and chemical properties that are no longer determined by the bulk material, but by their nanoscale architectures. Here, we discuss several examples, ranging from nanoporous gold to surface engineered carbon aerogels that demonstrate the tuneability of nanoporous solids for sustainable energy applications.

AB Alloy 617, a high-temperature creep-resistant, nickel-based alloy, is being considered for the primary heat exchanger for the Next Generation Nuclear Plant (NGNP), which will operate at temperatures exceeding 760 degrees C and a helium pressure of approximately 7 MPa. Observations of the crept microstructure using optical microscopy indicate creep stress does not significantly influence the creep void fraction at a given creep strain over the relatively narrow set of creep conditions studied. Void formation was found to occur only after significant creep in the tertiary regime (>5 pct total creep strain) had occurred. Also, orientation imaging microscopy (OIM) was used to characterize the grain boundaries in the vicinity of creep voids that develop during high-temperature creep tests (900 degrees C to 1000 degrees C at creep stresses ranging from 20 to 40 MPa) terminated at creep strains ranging from 5 to 40 pct. Preliminary analysis of the OIM data indicates voids tend to form on grain boundaries parallel, perpendicular, or 45 deg to the tensile axis, while few voids are found at intermediate inclinations to the tensile axis. Random grain boundaries intersect most voids, while coincident site lattice (CSL)-related grain boundaries did not appear to be consistently associated with void development. Similar results were found in oxygen-free, high-conductivity (OFHC) copper, severely deformed using equal channel angular extrusion, and creep tested at 450 degrees C and 14 MPa.

AB Nickel-based superalloys are being considered for applications within advanced nuclear power generation systems due to their high-temperature strength and corrosion resistance. Alloy 617, a candidate for use in heat exchangers, derives its strength from both solid solution strengthening and the precipitation of carbide particles. However, during creep, carbides that are supposed to retard grain boundary motion are found to dissolve and reprecipitate on boundaries in tension. To quantify the redistribution, we have used electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) to analyze the microstructure of 617 after creep testing at 900 degrees C and 1000 degrees C. The data were analyzed with respect to the location of the carbides (e. g., intergranular vs intragranular), grain boundary character, and precipitate type (i.e., Cr rich or Mo rich). We find that grain boundary character is the most important factor in carbide distribution; some evidence of preferential distribution to boundaries in tension is also observed at higher applied stresses. Finally, the results suggest that the observed redistribution is due to the migration of carbides to the boundaries and not the migration of boundaries to the precipitates.

AB As part of the spent fuel treatment program at the Idaho National Laboratory, alternate crucible materials are being developed for the processing of uranium and salt. The separation of salt (LiCl/KCl based) from uranium is performed in an inductively heated furnace capable of distillation under vacuum conditions. Historically, salt and uranium have been processed in graphite crucibles coated with a zirconia mold wash. Although the coated crucibles have performed adequately considering the reactive nature of salt and uranium at high temperature, the operations required for multiple use of the crucibles are quite labor intensive. Thus, an alternate ceramic-lined crucible has been developed to simplify remote operations. Two ceramic-lined crucibles have been tested using irradiated materials to verify their compatibility and determine an ultimate life cycle. Although minor process losses and crucible deterioration have occurred with the ceramic-lined crucibles, the overall performance of the crucibles has been adequate for the separation of salt during uranium processing.

AB An aluminosilicate waste form has been proposed for the storage and disposal of cesium and strontium isolated from recycled nuclear fuel. To examine the impact of sintering temperature on the waste form product, thermal analysis (thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)) was used to identify key transition temperature ranges. Samples were produced in each temperature range to examine the impact on phase formation and microstructure. Examination of the synthesized materials by X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the formation of the expected Cs-and Sr-aluminosilicate crystalline phases. However, microscopic characterization by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed a spongelike, glassy morphology with high porosity and no observed crystallinity. This discrepancy was investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM), which identified the presence of discrete, submicron, crystalline phases within the bulk amorphous matrix. Elemental analysis by energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) indicated that the strontium and barium were incorporated into the crystalline phase, while the cesium was incorporated into the amorphous matrix. Further analysis of samples synthesized without barium or strontium allowed for the identification of submicron crystalline phases within the amorphous matrix, identifying the source of the cesium aluminosilicate crystal peaks in the XRD patterns, with elemental analysis showing that the cesium was present in both the crystalline inclusions and the amorphous bulk phase.

AB In the present Study, laboratory-scale deoxidation experiments in a vacuum-indicaion furnace (VIF) were carried out to elucidate the evolution of inclusions during transient stages after a titanium addition. Three different titanium sources (Fe-70 wt pct Ti, Fe-30 wt pct Ti, and titanium granules) were employed and the results were compared in terms of the inclusion chemistry, structure, and morphology. It was found that, immediately after titanium additions to an aluminum-killed melt, titanium-containing inclusions, which are either single-phase or dual-phase particles having a certain amount of titanium and are contrary to melt equilibrium predictions, were formed. Analysis by transmission electron microscope (TEM) suggested that these inclusions could be Al(2)TiO(5). The change in the inclusion chemistry was accompanied by a shift in the inclusion morphology from spherical to irregular. With time, the inclusion chemistry shifted back toward the thermodynamically stable Al(2)O(3), but the change in morphology remained. The temporary Al(2)TiO(5) inclusions were formed as a result of local high content of titanium immediately after and at the vicinity of the titanium addition. When comparing the different titanium Sources, it was found that they can be ranked as Ti > Fe-70 pct Ti > Fe-30 pct Ti, in terms of the amount of titanium-containing inclusions produced during the transient stage.

AB During ladle processing of interstitial-free (IF) steel melts, it is possible for transient titanium-containing oxides to be formed if the local titanium/aluminuin (Ti/Al) ratio is locally and temporarily increased after aluminum killing. The phase stability diagrams suggest that if the Ti/Al ratio is increased, then Al(2)TiO(5) and/or a liquid Al-Ti-O region can become stable, and eventually at even higher Ti/Al ratios, Ti(3)O(5) becomes stable. In this study, the Ti/Al ratio was Successively altered to investigate (1) how the Inclusions evolved after titanium addition to aluminum-killed iron melts and (2) whether the inclusions present after sufficient time were those predicted by thermodynamics. When the Ti/Al ratio was maintained at 1/4, such that AI,03 is the only thermodynamically stable oxide., the results show that transient titanium-containing oxides exist temporarily after titanium addition, but with time, the predominant inclusion was Al(2)O(3), which would generate little shape change and produce transient stage inclusions with less titanium contents. When the Ti/Al ratio was increased to 1/1 (Al(2)O(3) still being the only thermodynamically stable oxide), the results show a more distinct increase in the titanium content of the transient inclusions. The transient reaction was, in this case, accompanied by an irreversible shape change from spherical to irregular inclusions. When the Ti/Al ratio in the melt was increased to 15/1 within the Al(2)TiO(5) stable phase region, the inclusion population evolved from spherical-dominant ones to irregular ones. It was found that the final inclusion chemistry has more titanium but less aluminum content compared with the expected from the Al(2)TiO(5) chemistry. Besides, the transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results showed the existence of Ti(2)O. When the Ti/Al ratio in the melt was increased such that Ti(3)O(5) is the thermodynamically stable inclusion (Ti/Al ratio of 75/1 or infinity), the inclusions evolved after titanium addition toward TiO(x) inclusions, which is accompanied by a shape change from spherical to irregular. The TEM results revealed and confirmed the existence of metastable Ti(2)O besides the thermodynamically stable Ti(3)O(5), and it was consistent with the results based on oxidation studies of thin layers of titanium with Al(2)O(3) substrate. It was discovered that Ti(2)O has the tendency of transforming into the thermodynamically stable phase Ti(3)O(5) under certain conditions.

AB On September 15, 2007, a bright fireball was observed and a big explosion was heard by many inhabitants near the southern shore of Lake Titicaca. In the community of Carancas (Peru), a 13.5 m crater and several fragments of a stony meteorite were found close to the site of the impact. The Carancas event is the first impact crater whose formation was directly observed by several witnesses as well as the first unambiguous seismic recording of a crater-forming meteorite impact on Earth. We present several lines of evidence that suggest that the Carancas crater was a hypervelocity impact. An event like this should have not occurred according to the accepted picture of stony meteoroids ablating in the Earth's atmosphere, therefore it challenges our present models of entry dynamics. We discuss alternatives to explain this particular event. This emphasizes the weakness in the pervasive use of "average" parameters (such as tensile strength, fragmentation behavior and ablation behavior) in current modeling efforts. This underscores the need to examine a full range of possible values for these parameters when drawing general conclusions front models about impact processes.

AB This paper compares the wind field from a diagnostic model (CALMET) over complex terrain in the Phoenix region in the USA with observations that are gridded by a state-of-the-art Four-Dimensional Data Assimilation (FDDA) system. The wind difference between the CALMET and FDDA wind fields is larger at night than in the day. The magnitude of the wind difference can be smaller than 5% of the mean wind speed at low levels in areas with dense observational stations, while it can be larger than 80% in areas without observational stations or at high altitudes. The vector-mean wind direction difference over the domain is 15 degrees on the surface level and 25 degrees between 10 and 1500 m. To evaluate the effects of the wind difference on dispersion calculations, dispersion of a hypothetical passive tracer released from surface point sources is simulated by the second-order closure integrated puff (SCIPUFF) model driven by the CALMET and FDDA wind fields, respectively. Differences in the two simulated tracer concentration fields increase with time due to accumulation of effects of the wind differences both near the surface and at higher altitudes. Even for release in the area with the densest distribution of surface stations, the relative difference in the peak surface concentration from CALMET-SCIPUFF and from FDDA-SCIPUFF is less than 10% only within 0.5 h after the release in the afternoon, and increases to 70% at 1.5 h; this is because of large differences in wind above the surface. For release in the area with few stations, the difference can be larger than 100% or even larger after 1.5 h from the release. To improve dispersion simulations driven by the CALMET wind in the region, observations at Upper-air stations are needed and the current surface observation network needs to be reorganized or more stations are needed to account for the influence of terrain.

AB Aspartokinase (Ask) exists within a variable network that supports the synthesis of 9 amino acids and a number of other important metabolites. Lysine, isoleucine, aromatic amino acids, and dipicolinate may arise from the ASK network or from alternative pathways. Ask proteins were subjected to cohesion group analysis, a methodology that sorts a given protein assemblage into groups in which evolutionary continuity is assured. Two subhomology divisions, ASK(alpha) and ASK(beta), have been recognized. The ASK(alpha) subhomology division is the most ancient, being widely distributed throughout the Archaea and Eukarya and in some Bacteria. Within an indel region of about 75 amino acids near the N terminus, ASK(beta) sequences differ from ASK(alpha) sequences by the possession of a proposed ancient deletion. ASK(beta) sequences are present in most Bacteria and usually exhibit an in-frame internal translational start site that can generate a small Ask subunit that is identical to the C-terminal portion of the larger subunit of a heterodimeric unit. Particularly novel are ask genes embedded in gene contexts that imply specialization for ectoine (osmotic agent) or aromatic amino acids. The cohesion group approach is well suited for the easy recognition of relatively recent lateral gene transfer (LGT) events, and many examples of these are described. Given the current density of genome representation for Proteobacteria, it is possible to reconstruct more ancient landmark LGT events. Thus, a plausible scenario in which the three well-studied and iconic Ask homologs of Escherichia coli are not within the vertical genealogy of Gammaproteobacteria, but rather originated via LGT from a Bacteroidetes donor, is supported.

AB The theoretical description of defects and impurities in semiconductors is largely based on density functional theory (DFT) employing supercell models. The literature discussion of uncertainties that limit the predictivity of this approach has focused mostly on two issues: (1) finite-size effects, in particular for charged defects; (2) the band-gap problem in local or semi-local DFT approximations. We here describe how finite-size effects (1) in the formation energy of charged defects can be accurately corrected in a simple way, i.e. by potential alignment in conjunction with a scaling of the Madelung-like screened first order correction term. The factor involved with this scaling depends only on the dielectric constant and the shape of the supercell, and quite accurately accounts for the full third order correction according to Makov and Payne. We further discuss in some detail the background and justification for this correction method, and also address the effect of the ionic screening on the magnitude of the image charge energy. In regard to (2) the band-gap problem, we discuss the merits of non-local external potentials that are added to the DFT Hamiltonian and allow for an empirical band-gap correction without significantly increasing the computational demand over that of standard DFT calculations. In combination with LDA + U, these potentials are further instrumental for the prediction of polaronic defects with localized holes in anion-p orbitals, such as the metal-site acceptors in wide-gap oxide semiconductors.

The first-principles calculations (1) apply boundary conditions appropriate to charge defects in supercells and enable quantitatively accurate predictions of defect charge transitions with a supercell approximation, (2) are demonstrated to be converged with respect to cell size and (3) assess the sensitivity to model construction to Ga pseudopotential construction (3d core or 3d valence) and density functionals (local density or generalized gradient approximation). With these factors controlled, we present the first quantitatively reliable survey of defect levels in GaAs, reassess the available literature and begin to decipher the complexity of GaAs defect chemistry. The computed defect level spectrum spans the experimental GaAs band gap, defects exhibit multiple bistabilities with (sometimes overlapping) negative-U systems, express more extensive charge states than previously anticipated and collectively suggest that our atomistic understanding of GaAs defect physics needs to be reassessed.

AB The Bacillus anthracis genome reflects its close genetic ties to Bacillus cereus and Bacillus thuringiensis but has been shaped by its own unique biology and evolutionary forces. The genome is comprised of a chromosome and two large virulence plasmids, pXO1 and pXO2. The chromosome is mostly co-linear among B. anthracis strains and even with the closest near neighbor strains. An exception to this pattern has been observed in a large inversion in an attenuated strain suggesting that chromosome co-linearity is important to the natural biology of this pathogen. In general, there are few polymorphic nucleotides among B. anthracis strains reflecting the short evolutionary time since its derivation from a B. cereus-like ancestor. The exceptions to this lack of diversity are the variable number tandem repeat (VNTR) loci that exist in genic and non genic regions of the chromosome and both plasmids. Their variation is associated with high mutability that is driven by rapid insertion and deletion of the repeats within an array. A notable example is found in the vrrC locus which is homologous to known DNA translocase genes from other bacteria. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB There is no generally accepted picture of where, when, and how the domestic dog originated. Previous studies of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have failed to establish the time and precise place of origin because of lack of phylogenetic resolution in the so far studied control region (CR), and inadequate sampling. We therefore analyzed entire mitochondrial genomes for 169 dogs to obtain maximal phylogenetic resolution and the CR for 1,543 dogs across the Old World for a comprehensive picture of geographical diversity. Hereby, a detailed picture of the origins of the dog can for the first time be suggested. We obtained evidence that the dog has a single origin in time and space and an estimation of the time of origin, number of founders, and approximate region, which also gives potential clues about the human culture involved. The analyses showed that dogs universally share a common homogenous gene pool containing 10 major haplogroups. However, the full range of genetic diversity, all 10 haplogroups, was found only in southeastern Asia south of Yangtze River, and diversity decreased following a gradient across Eurasia, through seven haplogroups in Central China and five in North China and Southwest (SW)Asia, down to only four haplogroups in Europe. The mean sequence distance to ancestral haplotypes indicates an origin 5,400-16,300 years ago (ya) from at least 51 female wolf founders. These results indicate that the domestic dog originated in southern China less than 16,300 ya, from several hundred wolves. The place and time coincide approximately with the origin of rice agriculture, suggesting that the dogs may have originated among sedentary hunter-gatherers or early farmers, and the numerous founders indicate that wolf taming was an important culture trait.

AB Recent structures of the potassium channel provide an essential beginning point for explaining how the pore is gated between open and closed conformations by changes in membrane voltage. Yet, the molecular details of this process and the connections to transmembrane gradients are not understood. To begin addressing how changes within a membrane environment lead to die channel's ability to sense shifts in membrane voltage and to gate, we performed double-bilayer simulations of the Kv1.2 channel. These double-bilayer simulations enable us to simulate realistic voltage drops from resting potential conditions to depolarized conditions by changes in the bath conditions on each side of the bilayer. Our results show how the voltage sensor domain movement responds to differences in transmembrane potential. The initial voltage sensor domain movement, S4 in particular, is modulated by the gating charge response to changes in voltage and is initially stabilized by tic lipid headgroups We show this response is directly coupled to the initial stages of pore domain motion. Results presented here provide a molecular model for how the pre-gating process occurs in sequential steps: Gating charge response, movement and stabilization of the S4 voltage sensor domain, and movement near the base of the S5 region to close the pore domain.

AB Although the ERK pathway has a central role in the response of cells to growth factors, its regulatory structure and dynamics are incompletely understood. To investigate ERK activation in real time, we expressed an ERK-GFP fusion protein in human mammary epithelial cells. On EGF stimulation, we observed sustained oscillations of the ERK-GFP fusion protein between the nucleus and cytoplasm with a periodicity of similar to 15 min. The oscillations were persistent (>45 cycles), independent of cell cycle phase, and were highly dependent on cell density, essentially disappearing at confluency. Oscillations occurred even at ligand doses that elicited very low levels of ERK phosphorylation, and could be detected biochemically in both transfected and nontransfected cells. Mathematical modeling revealed that negative feedback from phosphorylated ERK to the cascade input was necessary to match the robustness of the oscillation characteristics observed over a broad range of ligand concentrations. Our characterization of single-cell ERK dynamics provides a quantitative foundation for understanding the regulatory structure of this signaling cascade.

AB Bipolar molecules incorporating donor and acceptor components within a single molecule create exciting device opportunities due to their possible use as nanoscale p-n heterojunctions. Here we report a direct characterization of the internal electronic structure of a single bipolar molecular heterojunction, including subnanometer features of the intramolecular donor-acceptor interface. Angstrom-resolved scanning tunneling spectroscopy was used to map the energy levels and spatial extent of molecular orbitals across the surface of an individual bipolar molecule, bithiophene naphthalene diimide (BND). We find that individual BND molecules exhibit type II heterojunction behavior with orbital energy shifts occurring over subnanometer intramolecular interface distances. Comparison of this behavior with first-principles theoretical modeling provides new insights into the optimization of these molecular systems.

It enabled us to obtain the never seen before rich microscopic details of carrier motion in conjugated polymers, which led us to question several assumptions of phenomenological models, widely used in such systems. The macroscopic mobility of disordered poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) polymer, extracted from our simulation, is in agreement with experimental results from the literature.

AB We report on measurements of Seebeck effect in single-crystal VO2 microbeams across their metal-insulator phase transition. One-dimensionally aligned metal-insulator domain walls were reversibly created and eliminated along single VO2 beams by varying temperature, which allows for accurate extraction of the net contribution to the Seebeck effect from these domain walls. We observed significantly lower Seebeck coefficient in the metal-insulator coexisting regime than predicted by a linear combination of contributions from the insulator and metal domains. This indicates that the net contribution of the domain walls has an opposite sign from that of the insulator and metal phases separately. Possible origins that may be responsible for this unexpected effect were discussed in the context of complications in this correlated electron material.

TI Porous Graphene as the Ultimate Membrane for Gas Separation
SO NANO LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID TOTAL-ENERGY CALCULATIONS; AUGMENTED-WAVE METHOD; HYDROGEN SEPARATION;
SILICA MEMBRANES; BASIS-SET
AB We investigate the permeability and selectivity of graphene sheets with designed subnanometer pores using first principles density functional theory calculations. We find high selectivity on the order of 10(8) for H(2)/CH(4) with a high H(2) permeance for a nitrogen-functionalized pore. We find extremely high selectivity on the order of 10(23) for H(2)/CH(4) for an all-hydrogen passivated pore whose small width (at 2.5 angstrom) presents a formidable barrier (1.6 eV) for CH(4) but easily surmountable for H(2) (0.22 eV). These results suggest that these pores are far superior to traditional polymer and silica membranes, where bulk solubility and diffusivity dominate the transport of gas molecules through the material. Recent experimental investigations, using either electron beams or bottom-up synthesis to create pores in graphene, suggest that it may be possible to employ such techniques to engineer variable-sized, graphene nanopores to tune selectivity and molecular diffusivity. Hence, we propose using porous graphene sheets as one-atom-thin, highly efficient, and highly selective membranes for gas separation. Such a pore could have widespread impact on numerous energy and technological applications; including carbon sequestration, fuel cells, and gas sensors.

TI "Narrow" Graphene Nanoribbons Made Easier by Partial Hydrogenation
SO NANO LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID AUGMENTED-WAVE METHOD; CARBON NANOTUBES; ELECTRONICS; FORM
AB It is highly desirable to produce narrow-width graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) with smooth edges in large scale. In an attempt to solve this difficult problem, we examined the hydrogenation of GNRs on the basis of first principles density functional calculations. Our study shows that narrow GNRs can be readily obtained from wide GNRs by partial hydrogenation. The hydrogenation of GNRs starts from the edges of GNRs and proceeds gradually toward the middle of the GNRs so as to maximize the number of carbon-carbon pi-pi bonds, hence effectively leading to narrower GNRs. Furthermore, the partially hydrogenated wide GNRs have similar electronic and magnetic properties as those of the narrow GNRs representing their graphene parts. Therefore, partial hydrogenation of wide GNRs should be a practical and reliable method to produce narrow GNRs in large scale.

TI Growth of Metal Oxide Nanowires from Supercooled Liquid Nanodroplets

DT Article

AB Nanometer-sized liquid droplets formed at temperatures below the bulk melting point become supercooled as they grow through Ostwald ripening or coalescence and can be exploited to grow nanowires without any catalyst. We used this simple approach to synthesize a number of highly crystalline metal oxide nanowires in a chemical or physical vapor deposition apparatus. Examples of nanowires made in this way include VO2, V2O5, RuO2, MoO2, MoO3, and Fe3O4, some of which have not been previously reported. Direct evidence of this new mechanism of nanowire growth is found from in situ 2-dimensional GISAXS (grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering) measurements Of VO2 nanowire growth, which provides quantitative information on the shapes and sizes of growing nanowires as well as direct evidence of the presence of supercooled liquid droplets. We observe dramatic changes in nanowire growth by varying the choice of substrate, reflecting the influence of wetting forces on the supercooled nanodroplet shape and mobility as well as substrate-nanowire lattice matching on the definition of nanowire orientation. Surfaces with defects can also be used to pattern the growth of the nanowires. The simplicity of this synthesis concept suggests it may be rather general in its application.

TI Tuning the Properties of Polymer Bulk Heterojunction Solar Cells by
Adjusting Fullerene Size to Control Intercalation
SO NANO LETTERS

ID RECOMBINATION
AB We demonstrate that intercalation of fullerene derivatives between the side chains of conjugated polymers can be controlled by adjusting the fullerene size and compare the properties of intercalated and nonintercalated poly(2,5-bis(3-hexadecylthiophen-2-yl)thieno[3,2-b]thiophene (pBTTT):fullerene blends. The intercalated blends, which exhibit optimal solar-cell performance at 1:4 polymer:fullerene by weight, have better photoluminescence quenching and lower absorption than the nonintercalated blends, which optimize at 1:1. Understanding how intercalation affects performance will enable more effective design of polymer:fullerene solar cells.

ID EPITAXIAL GRAPHENE; BANDGAP; GAS
AB Angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) is a powerful experimental technique for directly probing electron dynamics in solids. The energy versus momentum dispersion relations and the associated spectral broadenings measured by ARPES provide a wealth of information on quantum many-body interaction effects. In particular, ARPES allows studies of the Coulomb interaction among electrons (electron-electron interactions) and the interaction between electrons and lattice vibrations (electron-phonon interactions). Here, we report ab initio simulations of the ARPES spectra of graphene including both electron-electron and electron-phonon interactions on the same footing. Our calculations reproduce some of the key experimental observations related to many-body effects, including the indication of a mismatch between the upper and lower halves of the Dirac cone.

AB The explanations of several nanoscale phenomena such as the field enhancement factor in field emission, the large decay length of the adhesion force between a metallic tip and a surface, and the contact resistance in a nanowire break junction have been elusive. Here we develop an analytical theory of Thomas-Fermi screening in nanoscale structures. We demonstrate that nanoscale dimensions give rise to an effective screening length that depends on the geometry and physical boundary conditions. The above phenomena are shown to be manifestations of the effective screening length.

TI Patterning Graphene at the Nanometer Scale via Hydrogen Desorption
SO NANO LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID EPITAXIAL GRAPHENE; BILAYER GRAPHENE; ATOMIC-HYDROGEN; DEVICES; GAS
AB We have demonstrated the reversible and local modification of the electronic properties of graphene by hydrogen passivation and subsequent electron-stimulated hydrogen desorption with an scanning tunneling microscope tip. In addition to changing the morphology, we show that the hydrogen passivation is stable at room temperature and modifies the electronic properties of graphene, opening a gap in the local density of states. This insulating state is reversed by local desorption of the hydrogen, and the unaltered electronic properties of graphene are recovered. Using this mechanism, we have "written" graphene patterns on nanometer length scales. For patterned regions that are roughly 20 nm or greater, the inherent electronic properties of graphene are completely recovered. Below 20 nm we observe dramatic variations in the electronic properties of the graphene as a function of pattern size. This reversible and local mechanism for modifying the electronic properties of graphene has far-reaching implications for nanoscale circuitry fabricated from this revolutionary material.

AB We show that the electronic coupling and magnetic moment of a silver nanoparticle dimer can be readily tuned by applying an electric field in the nonlinear dielectric-response regime. For a given interparticle separation, the electronic coupling becomes tunable as soon as the system crosses over from the linear to nonlinear regime. Remarkably, this transition takes place for modest strengths of the electric field. Further increase of the field strength may close the HOMO-LUMO gap of the dimer due to Stark shifts, accompanied by the emergence of a net magnetic moment from two nonmagnetic building blocks. These findings, obtained within density functional theory, exhibit the delicate coupling between the electronic and magnetic degrees of freedom and point to new approaches to gain multifunctionality of nanoparticle aggregates.

AB We present a class of devices called Asymmetric Bowtie nano-Colorsorters. These devices are specifically engineered to not only capture and confine optical fields, but also to spectrally filter and steer them while maintaining nanoscale field distributions. We show that spectral properties and localized spatial mode distributions can be readily tuned by controlled asymmetry. Nano-Colorsorters can control light's spatial and spectral distributions at the nanoscale and thus significantly impact applications ranging from broadband light harvesting to ultrafast wavelength-selective photodetection.

AB Mechanical property of dumbbell-like Au-Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) is investigated from a synthetic point of view by overgrowing Au-2 on the Au-1-Fe3O4 NPs. The competitive growth of Au-2 on the preformed Au-1-Fe3O4 NPs induced an interesting "tug-of-war" between Au-2 and Fe3O4 in the formed Au-2-Au-1-Fe3O4 ternary nanostructure. An interpretation of the observed phenomena is proposed based on a mechanical analysis of the stress and strain distribution across the nanoparticle, which is further verified by control experiments with particle size tuned.

AB We report synthesis windows for growth of millimeter-long ZnTe nanoribbons and ZnSe nanowires using vapor transport. By tuning the local conditions at the growth substrate, high aspect ratio nanostructures can be synthesized. A Cu-ion immersion doping method was applied, producing strongly p-type conduction in ZnTe and ionic conduction in ZnSe. These extreme aspect ratio wide-bandgap semiconductors have great potential for high density nanostructured optoelectronic circuits.

AB Germanium (Ge), a Group IV semiconductor, was recently used as an effective catalyst to grow individual, single-crystalline ZnO nanowires through a vapor-liquid-solid (VLS) process [Pail et al., Angew. Chem.. Int. Ed. 2005, 44, 274-278]. Here, we show that Ge call also act Lis an efficient catalyst for the large-scale growth of highly aligned, closely-packed polycrystalline Al2O3 and amorphous SiO2 nanowire bunch arrays. The Ge-catalyzed Al2O3 and SiO2 nanowire growth exhibits many interesting growth behaviors including (i) multiple nanowire growth catalyzed by one micrometer-size Ge particle, (ii) branching growth and (iii) batch-by-batch growth. These growth phenomena are distinct from the conventional Au-catalyzed nanowire growth but are analogous to the recently reported Ga-catalyzed SiO2 nanowire growth. It is anticipated that many other oxide nanowires and nanowire assemblies can be synthesized through the Ge-catalyzed VLS process. The Ge-catalyzed Al2O3 and SiO2 nanowires emit strong visible light under ultraviolet light excitation.

AB Efforts to control climate change require the stabilization of atmospheric CO2 concentrations. This can only be achieved through a drastic reduction of global CO2 emissions. Yet fossil fuel emissions increased by 29% between 2000 and 2008, in conjunction with increased contributions from emerging economies, from the production and international trade of goods and services, and from the use of coal as a fuel source. In contrast, emissions from land-use changes were nearly constant. Between 1959 and 2008, 43% of each year's CO2 emissions remained in the atmosphere on average; the rest was absorbed by carbon sinks on land and in the oceans. In the past 50 years, the fraction of CO2 emissions that remains in the atmosphere each year has likely increased, from about 40% to 45%, and models suggest that this trend was caused by a decrease in the uptake of CO2 by the carbon sinks in response to climate change and variability. Changes in the CO2 sinks are highly uncertain, but they could have a significant influence on future atmospheric CO2 levels. It is therefore crucial to reduce the uncertainties.

AB Exposed rocks at underwater volcanoes and ridges host complex, abundant and diverse microbial communities(1-3). The volcanic glasses associated with these features constitute one of the most geochemically reactive components of the Earth's crust. The most commonly held hypothesis is that their oxidation in sea water provides the energy necessary to establish a seafloor biosphere(4-7). However, this hypothesis has yet to be directly tested. Here we used synchrotron-based X-ray microprobe mapping, X-ray absorption spectroscopy and high-resolution scanning and transmission electron microscopy techniques to examine the initial chemical changes that occur as the glassy rims of young pillow basalts are colonized by microbial organisms at Loihi seamount, Hawaii. We found little evidence of basalt dissolution. Instead, microbial biofilms were intimately associated with Fe(III)- and Mn(IV)-oxides that had precipitated from sea water onto the fresh basalt surfaces. These accumulations of secondary minerals probably represent the earliest stages of ferromanganese crust formation. We suggest that fluid-derived energy sources, such as dissolved and particulate Fe(II), Mn(II) and organic matter, may support the microbial communities colonizing seafloor rocks to a greater degree than local rock dissolution.

ID OPTICAL HYPERLENS; METAMATERIALS
AB Acoustic metamaterials can manipulate sound waves in surprising ways, which include collimation, focusing, cloaking, sonic screening and extraordinary transmission(1-14). Recent theories suggested that imaging below the diffraction limit using passive elements can be realized by acoustic superlenses or magnifying hyperlenses(15,16). These could markedly enhance the capabilities in underwater sonar sensing, medical ultrasound imaging and non-destructive materials testing. However, these proposed approaches suffer narrow working frequency bands and significant resonance-induced loss, which hinders them from successful experimental realization. Here, we report the experimental demonstration of an acoustic hyperlens that magnifies subwavelength objects by gradually converting evanescent components into propagating waves. The fabricated acoustic hyperlens relies on straightforward cutoff-free propagation and achieves deep-subwavelength resolution with low loss over a broad frequency bandwidth.

AB Chemically ordered bimetallic nanoparticles are promising candidates for magnetic-storage applications. However, the use of sub-10nm nanomagnets requires further study of possible size effects on their physical properties. Here, the effects of size and morphology on the order-disorder phase transition temperature of CoPt nanoparticles (T(C)(NP)) have been investigated experimentally, using transmission electron microscopy, and theoretically, with canonical Monte Carlo simulations. For 2.4-3-nm particles, T(C)(NP) is found to be 325-175 degrees C lower than the bulk material transition temperature, consistent with our Monte Carlo simulations. Furthermore, we establish that T(C)(NP) is also sensitive to the shape of the nanoparticles, because only one dimension of the particle (that is, in-plane size or thickness) smaller than 3nm is sufficient to induce a considerable depression of T(C)(NP). This work emphasizes the necessity of taking into account the three-dimensional morphology of nano-objects to understand and control their structural properties.

AB Precise control of the spatial organization of nanoscopic building blocks, such as nanoparticles, over multiple length scales is a bottleneck in the 'bottom-up' generation of technologically important materials. Only a few approaches have been shown to achieve nanoparticle assemblies without surface modification. We demonstrate a simple yet versatile approach to produce stimuli-responsive hierarchical assemblies of readily available nanoparticles by combining small molecules and block copolymers. Organization of nanoparticles into one-, two- and three-dimensional arrays with controlled inter-particle separation and ordering is achieved without chemical modification of either the nanoparticles or block copolymers. Nanocomposites responsive to heat and light are demonstrated, where the spatial distribution of the nanoparticles can be varied by exposure to heat or light or changing the local environment. The approach described is applicable to a wide range of nanoparticles and compatible with existing fabrication processes, thereby enabling a non-disruptive approach for the generation of functional devices.

AB Multiferroic materials showing coupled electric, magnetic and elastic orderings provide a platform to explore complexity and new paradigms for memory and logic devices. Until now, the deterministic control of non-ferroelectric order parameters in multiferroics has been elusive. Here, we demonstrate deterministic ferroelastic switching in rhombohedral BiFeO(3) by domain nucleation with a scanning probe. We are able to select among final states that have the same electrostatic energy, but differ dramatically in elastic or magnetic order, by applying voltage to the probe while it is in lateral motion. We also demonstrate the controlled creation of a ferrotoroidal order parameter. The ability to control local elastic, magnetic and torroidal order parameters with an electric field will make it possible to probe local strain and magnetic ordering, and engineer various magnetoelectric, domain-wall-based and strain-coupled devices.

AB Tunable terahertz lasers are desirable in applications in sensing and spectroscopy because many biochemical species have strong spectral. ngerprints at terahertz frequencies. Conventionally, the frequency of a laser is tuned in a similar manner to a stringed musical instrument, in which pitch is varied by changing the length of the string ( the longitudinal component of the wave vector) and/or its tension ( the refractive index). However, such methods are difficult to implement in terahertz semiconductor lasers because of their poor outcoupling efficiencies. Here, we demonstrate a novel tuning mechanism based on a unique 'wire laser' device for which the transverse dimension w is < d + gamma. The asymmetry has a predicted size of 5 x 10(-8) and the aim of the NPDGamma collaboration is to measure it to 20%. The first phase of the measurement was completed at the Los Alamos National Laboratory Neutron Science Center Spallation Source with a preliminary result of (-1.1 +/- 2.1 stat. +/- 0.2 sys.) x 10(-7). Here, we report on the measurements and the results obtained so far. The experiment is currently being installed at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, for the remainder of its run time. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB During February and May 2008, CMS participated to the Combined Computing Readiness Challenge (CCRC'08) together with all other LHC experiments. The purpose of this worldwide exercise was to check the readiness of the Computing infrastructure for LHC data taking. Another set of major CMS tests called Computing, Software and Analysis challenge (CSA'08) - as well as CMS cosmic runs - were also running at the same time: CCRC augmented the load on computing with additional tests to validate and stress-test all CMS computing workflows at full data taking scale, also extending this to the global WLCG community. CMS exercised most aspects of the CMS computing model, with very comprehensive tests. During May 2008, CMS moved more than 3.6 Petabytes among more than 300 links in the complex Grid topology. CMS demonstrated that is able to safely move data out of CERN to the Tier-1 sites, sustaining more than 600 MB/s as a daily average for more than seven days in a row, with enough headroom and with hourly peaks of up to 1.7 GB/s. CMS ran hundreds of simultaneous jobs at each Tier-1 site, re-reconstructing and skimming hundreds of millions of events. After re-reconstruction the fresh AOD (Analysis Object Data) has to be synchronized between Tier-1 centers: CMS demonstrated that the required inter-Tier-1 transfers are achievable within a few days. CMS also showed that skimmed analysis data sets can be transferred to Tier-2 sites for analysis at sufficient rate, regionally as well as inter-regionally, achieving all goals in about 90% of >200 links. Simultaneously, CMS also ran a large Tier-2 analysis exercise, where realistic analysis jobs were submitted to a large set of Tier-2 sites by a large number of people to produce a chaotic workload across the systems, and with more than 400 analysis users in May. Taken all together, CMS routinely achieved submissions of 100k jobs/day, with peaks up to 200k jobs/day. The achieved results in CCRC'08 - focussing on the distributed workflows - are presented and discussed.

ID PERFORMANCE; DESIGN
AB Serial Powering is a powering solution to the issues of costs, difficulties and inefficiencies associated with the cabling of large detector systems. This powering option is being actively pursued by the ATLAS Tracker upgrade community. Demonstrator supermodules have been produced using the ABCD chip from the present ATLAS SCT together with serial powering circuitry built from commercial components. Two six modules stave systems have been built, and construction of a third stave consisting of thirty modules has been designed and construction is in progress. Recent results from these supermodules have been discussed. New ASICs have been designed that include elements of the serial powering scheme, and studies of system issues are ongoing. These developments and their application to the next demonstrator supermodule will be outlined.

AB The LHCf experiment is the smallest of the six experiments installed at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). While the general purpose detectors have been mainly designed to answer the open questions of Elementary Particle Physics, LHCf has been designed as a fully devoted Astroparticle experiment at the LHC. Indeed, thanks to the excellent performances of its double arm calorimeters, LHCf will be able to measure the flux of neutral particles produced in p-p collisions at LHC in the very forward region, thus providing an invaluable help in the calibration of air-shower Monte Carlo codes currently used for modeling cosmic rays interactions in the Earth atmosphere. Depending on the LHC machine schedule, LHCf will take data in an energy range from 900 GeV up to 14 TeV in the centre of mass system (equivalent to 10(17) eV in the laboratory frame), thus covering one of the most interesting and debated region of the Cosmic Ray spectrum, the region around and beyond the "knee".

AB Samples of different solid materials as well as of water and soil were exposed to the stray radiation field created by a 28.5-GeV electron beam hitting a copper dump. After irradiation, specific activities and residual dose rates were measured at different cooling times from I h up to several months. Furthermore, the irradiation experiment was simulated with the FLUKA Monte Carlo code. The calculations included a detailed identification of interaction processes creating the different nuclides. First comparisons of experimental data on specific activities and FLUKA results indicate underestimation by FLUKA at irradiation locations laterally to the target, while the agreement seems reasonable downstream of it. The irradiation experiment, the current status of the data analysis, and a preliminary comparison with FLUKA results are presented.

AB The purpose of the study is to obtain estimates of limits on uncontrolled beam losses of heavy ions for allowing hands-on maintenance at a heavy-ion linac for a rare isotope beam facility. Semiempirical formulas are used to estimate dose equivalent rates from activated accelerator components for 1 W/M uncontrolled losses of protons up to 1 GeV The estimated dose rates after a 100-day irradiation time, 4-h postshutdown cooling time are compared to a hands-on maintenance limit of 1 mSv/h (100 mrem/h) at 30 cm. The transport codes PHITS and MCNP5 and activation code DCHAIN-SP 2001 are used to verify, the estimate for proton losses and to obtain limits on heavy-ion beam losses that will satisfy the hands-on maintenance dose rate limit.

DE activation calculations; Monte Carlo; particle transport
AB In the framework of activation calculations of accelerator components with Monte Carlo methods, an unsolved problem is to take into account the spallation products of trace elements and impurities in a bulk material. Because of the low probability of spallation reactions with these elements, a large number of primary particles are necessary to obtain some information about their spallation products. A new algorithm for treating high-energy reactions has been implemented into MCNPX 2.5.0 to overcome these deficiencies. With this algorithm, spallation reactions of all constituents of a material will be performed at each high-energy interaction.

DE residual dose; residual activation; irradiation
AB A method to calculate residual activation of accelerator components is presented. A model for residual dose estimation for thick objects made of arbitrary composite materials for arbitrary irradiation and cooling times is employed in the study. A scaling procedure for applying the model to thin objects with linear dimensions less than a fraction of a nuclear interaction length is described. The scaling has been performed for various materials, and corresponding factors have been determined for objects of certain shapes (slab, solid, and hollow cylinder) that can serve as models for beam pipes, magnets, and collimators. Both contact residual dose and dose attenuation in the air outside irradiated objects are considered. A relation between continuous and pulsed irradiation is accounted for as well.

AB Component radioactivation is an important problem in accelerator facilities, impacting operations, maintenance, decommissioning, and disposal. Radionuclide inventories are calculated for an 8-cm-diam, 30.9-cm-long lead target irradiated by 660-MeV protons using the particle transport code MCNPX and the transmutation codes CINDER'90, ORIHET-3, and SP-FISPACT The results using the various codes and data libraries are compared with experimental measurements. Comparisons are also made between the outputs of the three codes for nuclides not represented in the measurements. For more than half the nuclides studied, the codes agree with the measurements within a factor of 2, and nearly all agree within a factor of 10. The present set of codes and nuclear data files are largely adequate for calculating radioactivation in accelerator facilities, but there is room for substantial improvement for selected radionuclides.

AB Monitoring issues related to activation and fission processes occur in many health physics, instrumentation and equipment design, nuclear forensics, and homeland security applications. Gamma radiation that is emitted during these processes as a result of the radioactive decay of reaction by-products [delayed gammas (DGs)] provides unique signatures that are useful for interrogation and information acquisition. Thus, it is of compelling interest to have a simulation tool that can be used to conduct studies to provide insights into the activation and fission processes. Beginning with version 2.5.0, MCNPX has been undergoing major upgrades to facilitate DG simulations. We illustrate the upgrades for a simple multiparticle reaction model involving (60)Ni and for (235)U photofission caused by 12-MeV photons.

DE Monte Carlo; variance reduction; angle biasing
AB Dxtran is a deterministic transport method typically used for increasing the sampling in a spherical region that would otherwise not be adequately sampled because the probability of scartering toward the region is often very small. Essentially, the dxtran method splits the particle into two pieces at each source or collision point: a piece that arrives (without further collisions) at the dxtran sphere and a piece that does not. One difficulty with the dxtran method is that it can introduce a large weight fluctuation between particles colliding just before the sphere and particles colliding after crossing the sphere. New work shows that it is possible to mitigate this difficulty by extending the dxtran sphere concept to a set of nested dxtran spheres. Each dxtran sphere then shields its interior from particles whose weights are too large so that weights are more commensurate with their locations. Shielding against the large weights not only increases the efficiency of the calculation but the reliability as well. The effectiveness of the technique in MCNP was demonstrated on a 1-km air transport problem and on a concrete duct problem.

AB Reflection of thermal and cold neutrons by polished surfaces and so-called supermirrors effect radiation fields in and around neutron beamlines. To allow the prediction of these radiation fields with MCNPX 2.5.0, two new input cards were implemented for defining mirror properties of surfaces. Mirror properties can be linked to any type of surface, in contrast to other neutron optics codes, where the mirror properties are part of component descriptions, allowing the simulation of very complex neutron optical devices. First calculations are under way to verify the new capability against combinations of MCNPX and MCSTAS (neutron optics code) simulations. Also, simulations are under way to compare the predicted neutron beam characteristics against measurements conducted at Paul Scherrer Institut.

DE Monte Carlo; hybrid method; variance reduction
AB Monte Carlo is quite useful for calculating specific quantities in complex transport problems. Many variance reduction strategies have been developed that accelerate Monte Carlo calculations for specific tallies. However, when trying to calculate multiple tallies or a mesh tally, users have had to accept different levels of relative uncertainty among the tallies or run separate calculations optimized for each individual tally. To address this limitation, an extension of the Consistent Adjoint Driven Importance Sampling (CADIS) method, which is used for difficult source/detector problems, has been developed to optimize several tallies or the cells of a mesh tally simultaneously. The basis for this method is the development of an importance function that represents the importance of particles to the objective of uniform Monte Carlo particle density in the desired tally regions. This method utilizes the results of a forward discrete ordinates solution, which may be based on a quick coarse-mesh calculation, to develop a forward-weighted source for the adjoint calculation. The importance map and the biased source computed from the adjoint flux are then used in the forward Monte Carlo calculation to obtain approximately uniform relative uncertainties for the desired tallies. This extension is called forward-weighted CADIS, or FW-CADIS.

DE Monte Carlo; nuclear well-logging; variance reduction
AB Simulating nuclear well-logging devices with Monte Carlo methods is computationally challenging and requires significant variance reduction to compute detector responses with low statistical uncertainties in reasonable lengths of time. The consistent adjoint-driven importance sampling (CADIS) method, which provides consistent source and transport biasing parameters based on a deterministic adjoint (importance) function, has been demonstrated to be very effective for well-logging simulations and other deep-penetration problems. A recent extension to the CADIS method, FW-CADIS (forward-weighted CADIS), is designed to optimize the calculation of several tallies at once by using an adjoint function based on an adjoint source weighted by the inverse of the forward flux. These advanced variance reduction methods have been incorporated and automated into the MAVRIC sequence of SCALE, making them very easy to use. The CADIS and FW-CADIS methods are demonstrated and compared on simple benchmark models of both neutron- and photon-based well-logging devices. Both advanced variance reduction methods offer a substantial reduction in computing time, compared to analog simulation, for these applications.

AB After a radiological dispersal device event, there may be internally and/or externally contaminated victims. Those with life-threatening injuries may require immediate medical assistance prior to decontamination. The dose rates to which a healthcare provider is exposed due to the internal and external contamination of the victim were computed using Monte Carlo simulations and five anthropomorphic phantoms. For the external contamination modeling, the contamination is assumed to be uniformly, distributed over the entire exterior of the victim's body. For the internal contamination modeling, the contamination was distributed in the appropriate organs according to biokinetic modeling. The specific isotopes considered were (60)Co, (137)CS, (131)I, (192)Ir, and (241)Am. The calculated dose rates demonstrate that life-saving care to stabilize critical patients can be provided without exceeding dose guidelines for first responders.

DE ENDF70; NJOY; ENDF/B-VII.0
AB Following the release of ENDFIB-VII.0 evaluations, an ACE-formatted continuous-energy neutron data library called ENDF70 for MCNP has been produced at Los Alamos National Laboratory. This new library contains data for 387 isotopes and three elements at five temperatures: 293.6, 600, 900, 1200, and 2500 K. It can be obtained as part of the MCNP5 1.50 release. The new library was created using ENDFIB-VII.0 neutron evaluations and primarily version 248 of NJOY99. A processing script was created that set up the input files for NJOY and employed checking codes to test the content of the processed data. A sample MCNP run was performed for each isotope and temperature, and cross sections for each isotope were plotted to make sure there were no major problems. The processed ACE libraries did not always pass all quality assurance tests. For example, energy-balance problems were identified for several evaluations having negative heating numbers or inconsistencies between total and partial heating. Similarly, some problems were found with unresolved resonance probability tables, resulting in probability, tables being excluded from the final library for several materials. Certain evaluations were modified and reprocessed as a result of the quality assurance tests, and some data points in the final ACE files were changed because they were too small or had other problems. The new ENDF70 library provides MCNP users with the latest ENDF/B data available. This collection of data includes a larger range of isotopes and temperatures than previously released, which will be beneficial in numerous applications. The upgrades included as part of ENDF/B-VII.0 and, hence, ENDF70 should improve calculations.

DE detector; benchmark; MCNP
AB It is shown that basic measurements made from well-defined source detector configurations can be readily converted into benchmark quality results by which Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP) input stacks can be validated. Specifically, a recent measurement made in support of national security at the Nevada Test Site is described with sufficient detail to be submitted to the American Nuclear Society's Joint Benchmark Committee for consideration as a radiation measurement benchmark. From this very basic measurement, MCNP input stacks are generated and validated both in predicted signal amplitude and spectral shape. Not modeled at this time are those perturbations from the more recent pulse-height-light tally feature, although what spectral deviations are seen can be partially attributed to not including this small correction. The value of this work is as a proof-of-concept demonstration that well-documented historical testing can be converted into formal radiation measurement benchmarks. This provides evidentiary support that validated virtual testing could eventually be carried out for various detection system technologies including algorithms, new detector designs, constructions, and arbitrary source and shielding assemblies.

DE electron accelerator-driven subcritical facility; shield; MCNPX
AB Argonne National Laboratory of the United States and Kharkov Institute of Physics and Technology of Ukraine have been collaborating on the conceptual design development of an electron accelerator-driven subcritical facility. The facility will be utilized for performing basic and applied nuclear research, producing medical isotopes, and training young nuclear specialists. This paper presents the design and analyses of the biological shield performed for the top section of the facility. The neutron source driving the subcritical assembly is generated from the interaction of a 100-kW electron beam with a natural uranium target. The electron energy is in the range of 100 to 200 Me V, and it has a uniform spatial distribution. The shield design and the associated analyses are presented including different parametric studies. In the analyses, a significant effort was dedicated to the accurate prediction of the radiation dose outside the shield boundary as a function of the shield thickness without geometrical approximations or material homogenization. The MCNPX Monte Carlo code was utilized for the transport calculation of electrons, photons, and neutrons. Weight window variance-reduction techniques were introduced, and the dose equivalent outside the shield can be calculated with reasonably good statistics.

MTS is a spallation source facility being designed to irradiate reactor fuels and materials in a fast neutron spectrum. Calculated radionuclide inventories are used to provide decay heat input to cooling system design, decay radiation source terms for hot cell design, and material-at-risk input to accident analyses. CINDER'90 is a transmutation code that uses MCNPX-calculated spallation productyields and neurron fluxes to calculate residual nuclide concentrations based on irradiation history. The code also calculates decay heat and photon spectra for the resulting radionuclide inventories. A total activity of 2 X 10(17) Bq is created during MTS operation. Decay heat is an important factor since in loss of primary cooling scenarios, this heat must be removed. The major sources at shutdown are 3000 W for the tungsten target plates and 6000 W for fuel pins being irradiated. Decay photon spectra result in unshielded dose rates that hot cell design must accommodate on the order of 1000 Sv/h. The MTS design includes lead-bismuth eutectic (LBE) coolant. For accident analysis (210)Po activity in the LBE is a significant concern. The calculated (210)Po activity following 2.5 yr of operation is 2 X 10(14) Bq. Radionuclide inventory calculations are important for MTS design. The CINDER'90 code is a valuable tool for this purpose.

AB Upon reaching 180 kW, approximately one-eighth of its designed full power, the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) became the brightest pulsed neutron source in the world in August 2007. This state-of-the-art neutron-scattering facility is expected to attract 1000 to 2000 scientists and engineers each year from universities, industries, and laboratories around the world. The activation level of users' samples must be estimated before the experiment for proper sample preparation, storage, and postexperiment treatment in compliance with the safety regulations at SNS. A program written in Perl, SAPEU (Sample Activation Program for Easy Use), was developed to serve such requests from the SNS user community. The CINDER'90 library was implemented within the program for tracking the transmutation products of the irradiated sample. The SAPEU program assumes that the incident neutron flux attenuates with the total absorption cross section and calculates the radionuclide inventory, radiotoxicity categories, radiation dose rate, and gamma spectrum during each irradiation period from a simple user input. The SAPEU program can estimate the sample activation due to a cold neutron spectrum, not limited by the 5-meV lowest energy boundary of the CINDER'90 cross-section library. For validation, the SAPEU program methodology was compared to a full analysis involving MCNPX for the flux calculation and CINDER'90 for the activation analysis for typical sample activation cases. The results were in good agreement. Although this program was developed for SNS, it may be useful as a general sample activation prediction tool at any neutron-scattering facility.

AB Time-resolved pure-rotational coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy using picosecond-duration laser pulses is investigated for gas thermometry. The use of picosecond laser pulses significantly reduces background caused by scattering of the probe beam, and delayed probing of the Raman coherence enables elimination of interference from nonresonant four-wave mixing processes. Temperatures inferred from rotational spectra are sensitive to the probe delay because of the rotational-level dependence of collisional dephasing of Raman coherences. The sensitivity decreases, however, with increasing temperature, and accurate temperature measurements in a flame are demonstrated using a standard frequency-domain analysis of the spectra.

AB A family of creep-resistant austenitic stainless steels based on alumina (Al2O3) scale formation (AFA alloys) for superior high-temperature oxidation resistance was recently identified. Excellent oxidation behavior was observed at 650 and 700 A degrees C in air with 10% water vapor. However, particularly at 800 A degrees C, the presence of water vapor greatly increased the tendency for internal oxidation of Al. Water vapor also enhanced subscale Al depletion in some AFA alloys relative to dry air exposure. Increased levels of Nb additions were found to significantly improve oxidation resistance, as were reactive element additions of Hf and Y. Computational thermodynamic calculations of the austenitic matrix phase composition and the volume fraction of MC, B2-NiAl, and Fe2Nb base Laves phase precipitates were used to interpret oxidation behavior in terms of two-phase oxidation theory, reservoir effect, and the third-element effect of Cr. Of particular interest was the enrichment of Cr in the austenitic matrix phase by additions of Nb, which aided the establishment and maintenance of alumina. Higher levels of Nb additions also increased the volume fraction of B2-NiAl precipitates, which served as an Al reservoir during long-term oxidation. Implications of these findings for the design of AFA alloys with increased upper use temperature limits are discussed.

AB As parallel systems are commonly being built out of increasingly large multicore chips, application programmers are exploring the use of hybrid programming models combining MPI across nodes and multithreading within a node. Many MPI implementations, however, are just starting to support multithreaded MPI communication, often focussing on correctness first and performance later. As a result, both users and implementers need some measure for evaluating the multithreaded performance of an MPI implementation. In this paper, we propose a number of performance tests that are motivated by typical application scenarios. These tests cover the overhead of providing the MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE level of thread safety for user programs, the amount of concurrency in different threads making MPI calls, the ability to overlap communication with computation, and other features. We present performance results with this test suite on several platforms (Linux cluster, Sun and IBM SMPs) and MPI implementations (MPICH2, Open MPI, IBM, and Sun). (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB OBJECTIVE: We aimed to estimate the prevalence of Down syndrome (DS) among children and adolescents aged 0 to 19 years in 10 regions of the United States.
METHODS: This study was a cross-sectional analysis of live-born infants with DS during 1979-2003 from 10 population-based birth defects registries in the United States. We estimated the prevalence of DS at birth and among children aged 0 to 19 years in each region and in all regions pooled. The prevalence of DS among children and adolescents was calculated overall and according to age group, race/ethnicity, infant gender, and presence of a major heart defect.
RESULTS: From 1979 through 2003, the prevalence of DS at birth increased by 31.1%, from 9.0 to 11.8 per 10 000 live births in 10 US regions. In 2002, the prevalence among children and adolescents (0-19 years old) was 10.3 per 10 000. The prevalence of DS among children in a given age group consistently increased over time but decreased with age within a given birth cohort. The pooled prevalence of DS among children and adolescents was lower among non-Hispanic black individuals and other racial/ethnic groups compared with non-Hispanic white individuals; it was also lower among females than males.
CONCLUSIONS: This study provides prevalence estimates of DS among children and adolescents from 10 US regions. These estimates varied according to region, race/ethnicity, and gender, suggesting possible variation in prevalence at birth or in survival rates on the basis of these characteristics.

In this review the foundations for X-ray scattering are discussed and illustrated with selected examples demonstrating the ability to correlate solution X-ray scattering measurements to molecular structure, conformation, and dynamics. These approaches are anticipated to have a broad range of applications in natural and artificial photosynthesis by offering possibilities for structure resolution for dynamic supramolecular assemblies in solution that can not be fully addressed with crystallographic techniques, and for resolving fundamental mechanisms for solar energy conversion by mapping out structure in light-excited reaction states.

AB The primary energy conversion steps of natural photosynthesis proceed via light-induced radical ion pairs as short-lived intermediates. Time-resolved electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experiments of photosynthetic reaction centers monitor the key charge separated state between the oxidized primary electron donor and reduced quinone acceptor, e.g., P (865) (+) Q (A) (-) of purple photosynthetic bacteria. The time-resolved EPR spectra of P (865) (+) Q (A) (-) are indicative of a spin-correlated radical pair that is created from the excited singlet state of P (865) in an ultra-fast photochemical reaction. Importantly, the spin-correlated radical pair nature of the charge separated state is a common feature of all photosynthetic reaction centers, which gives rise to several interesting spin phenomena such as quantum oscillations, observed at short delay times after optical excitation. In this review, we describe details of the quantum oscillation phenomenon and present a complete analysis of the data obtained from the charge separated state of purple bacteria, P (865) (+) Q (A) (-) . The analysis and simulation of the quantum oscillations yield the three-dimensional structure of P (865) (+) Q (A) (-) in the photosynthetic membrane on a nanosecond time scale after light-induced charge separation. Comparison with crystallographic data reveals that the position of Q (A) (-) is essentially the same as in the X-ray structure. However, the head group of Q (A) (-) has undergone a 60A degrees rotation in the ring plane relative to its orientation in the crystal structure. The results are discussed within the framework of the previously suggested conformational gating mechanism for electron transfer from Q (A) (-) to the secondary quinone acceptor Q (B).

AB Quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) hybrid methods are currently the most powerful computational tools for studies of structure/function relations and structural refinement of macrobiomolecules (e.g., proteins and nucleic acids). These methods are highly efficient, since they implement quantum chemistry techniques for modeling only the small part of the system (QM layer) that undergoes chemical modifications, charge transfer, etc., under the influence of the surrounding environment. The rest of the system (MM layer) is described in terms of molecular mechanics force fields, assuming that its influence on the QM layer can be roughly decomposed in terms of electrostatic interactions and steric hindrance. Common limitations of QM/MM methods include inaccuracies in the MM force fields, when polarization effects are not explicitly considered, and the approximate treatment of electrostatic interactions at the boundaries between QM and MM layers. This article reviews recent advances in the development of computational protocols that allow for rigorous modeling of electrostatic interactions in extended systems beyond the common limitations of QM/MM hybrid methods. We focus on the moving-domain QM/MM (MoD-QM/MM) methodology that partitions the system into many molecular domains and obtains the electrostatic and structural properties of the whole system from an iterative self-consistent treatment of the constituent molecular fragments. We illustrate the MoD-QM/MM method as applied to the description of photosystem II as well as in conjunction with the application of spectroscopically constrained QM/MM optimization methods, based on high-resolution spectroscopic data (extended X-ray absorption fine structure spectra, and exchange coupling constants).

AB YBa2Cu3O7-x (Y123) films with quantitatively controlled artificial nanoprecipitate pinning centers were grown by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and characterized by transport over wide temperature (T) and magnetic field (H) ranges and by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The critical current density J(c) was found to be determined by the interplay of strong vortex pinning and thermally activated depinning (TAD), which together produced a non-monotonic dependence of J(c) on c-axis pin spacing d(c). At low T and H,J(c) increased with decreasing d(c), reaching the very high J(c) similar to 48 MA/cm(2) similar to 20% of the depairing current density J(d) at 10 K, self-field and d(c) similar to 10 nm, but at higher T and H when TAD effects become significant, J(c) was optimized at larger d(c) because longer vortex segments confined between nanoprecipitates are less prone to thermal fluctuations. We conclude that precipitates should extend at least several coherence lengths along vortices in order to produce irreversibility fields H-irr(77 K) greater than 7 T and maximum bulk pinning forces F-p,F-max(77 K) greater than 7-8 GN/m(3) (values appropriate for H parallel to the c-axis). Our results show that there is no universal pin array that optimizes J(c) at all T and H. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

buffer layer

AB Numerous experimental results have suggested that the J(c) of YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7) (YBCO) films is significantly higher near the film-substrate interface than in the remainder of the film. We previously proposed that this effect is due to interfacial pinning enhancement caused by stress and the resulting misfit dislocations at the heteroepitaxial interface. To test this hypothesis we have used a non-superconducting PrBa(2)Cu(3)O(7-delta) (PrBCO) buffer layer to minimize the lattice mismatch with YBCO. We find that the PrBCO layers lower J(c) of the 0.4 mu m YBCO films in a predictable way, and that, if sufficiently thick (similar to 0.5 mu m), they eliminate interfacial enhancement altogether. Our interpretation of this result is that the defects responsible for interfacial enhancement of flux pinning originate at the bottom of the non-superconducting PrBCO layer, which screens the pinning centers from vortices in YBCO. This result demonstrates that the pinning enhancement arises from stress at the film-substrate interface. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The dependence of the critical current density (J(c)) on the orientation of an applied magnetic field was studied for a prototype (Gd,Y)Ba2Cu3O7-x (GdYBCO) coated conductor fabricated by MCCVD on an IBAD-MgO template. Additional rare-earth cations (Y and Gd) and Zr were incorporated into the superconducting film to form (Y,Gd)(2)O-3 and BaZrO3 nanoparticles extended nearly parallel to the a-b planes and to the c-axis, respectively, to enhance the flux pinning. In-field measurement of J(c) was carried out with electrical current flowing either along or perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the tape, while a maximum Lorentz force configuration was always maintained. Details in the angular dependence of J(c) were related to the unique structure of the film, specifically the tilt in the GdYBCO lattice and the tilts in the extended (Y,Gd)(2)O-3 and BaZrO3 nanoparticles. XRD and TEM were used to study the structure of the coated conductor. The effect of the misalignment between the external field H and the internal field B on the angular dependence of J(c) is discussed. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB In order to enhance the superconductive properties of the high temperature superconductors, nanoparticles acting as pinning centers can be intentionally introduced into the structure by chemical doping. In this study, a Dy-doped YBa2Cu3O7-x (YBCO) coated conductor, prepared by a metal organic decomposition process, was investigated to determine the size, composition and 3D distribution of the nanoparticles. It was found that the addition of Dy results in the formation of a high density of secondary phase nanoparticles of composition (YsDy1-s)(2)Cu2O5 with s similar to 0.6. A tomographic tilt series was acquired by using a scanning transmission electron microscope to analyze the interaction between the particles and the structural defects and to determine the 3D distribution of nanoparticles. For the investigated sample volume (0.06 mu m(3)), 71 particles were located with a particle size distribution ranging between 13 and 135 nm with an average size of similar to 30 nm. The distribution uniformity, position and the size of the particles are observed to be dependent on the interaction of the particles with the twin boundaries. It is observed that the larger particles are generally located on more than one twin boundary, moreover, the particle size is smaller on the twin boundaries shared by several particles. This suggests that the growth of the particles is determined by fast twin boundary diffusion and the formation of the large particles might be prevented by altering the temperature-time parameters of the production processing to enhance the flux pinning characteristic of the superconductors by achieving a more uniform size of flux pinning centers.

AB The properties of discontinuous aligned pinning centers (PCs) created by high-energy heavy-ions are compared for bulk melt-textured and coated conductor HTS. Properties of PCs, which increase J(c) (pinning potential and entanglement), and negative properties which decrease J(c) (e.g., decreased T-c and percolation paths) are evaluated. Mechanisms are proposed to explain the very large increases in Jc resulting from multiple-in-line-damage (MILD) compared to continuous columnar pinning centers (CCPC). In particular, a mechanism which results in fluxoid entanglement, even for parallel (unsplayed) PCs, is discussed. The same mechanism is found to also account for restoration of much of the pinning potential expected to be lost due to the gaps in MILD PCs. It also accounts for the fact that at high fluence, J(c) increases as fluence is increased, instead of decreasing as expected. The very low self-field in coated conductor permits separation of the negative and positive effects of PCs. It is found that parameters developed to quantify the negative effects in bulk melt-textured YBCO, by 63 GeV U-238 ions, successfully describe damage to 2.1 mu m thick coated conductor by 1 GeV Ru-44 ions. Coated conductor at 77 K and self-field is generally known to have J(c) about 100 times that of melt-textured YBCO. However, at 77 K and applied field of 1 T, when both forms of HTS are processed with comparable numbers of near-optimum MILD PCs, the difference in Jc is reduced to a factor of 1.3-2. Whereas J(c) for melt-textured YBCO increased sharply, by a factor of up to 16.8 for high-fluence MILD PCs, J(c) in coated conductor increased by a smaller factor of 2.5-3.0. Nevertheless, 2.1 mu m thick coated conductor, with near-optimum MILD PCs, exhibits J(c) = 543 kA/cm(2) at 77 K and applied field of 1.0 T, and I-c = 114 A/cm-width of conductor. This is the highest value we find in the literature. The phenomenology developed indicates that for optimum MILD PCs in coated conductor, J(c) similar to 700 +/- 70 kA/cm(2) should be achievable at 77 K. 1.0 T. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB The 2004 tracer experiment of JET with the injection of (CH4)-C-13 into H-mode plasma at the outer divertor has been modelled with the Monte Carlo impurity transport code ERO. EDGE2D solutions for inter-ELM and ELM-peak phases were used as plasma backgrounds. Local two-dimensional (2D) deposition patterns at the vertical outer divertor target plate were obtained for comparison with post-mortem surface analyses. ERO also provides emission profiles for comparison with radially resolved spectroscopic measurements. Modelling indicates that enhanced re-erosion of deposited carbon layers is essential in explaining the amount of local deposition. Assuming negligible effective sticking of hydrocarbons, the measured local deposition of 20-34% is reproduced if re-erosion of deposits is enhanced by a factor of 2.5-7 compared to graphite erosion. If deposits are treated like the substrate, the modelled deposition is 55%. Deposition measurements at the shadowed area around injectors can be well explained by assuming negligible re-erosion but similar sticking behaviour there as on plasma-wetted surfaces.

AB Under appropriate conditions, exposing tungsten to a high flux D plasma creates near-surface blisters and other changes in surface morphology. We have characterized the sizes of blisters formed at different temperatures (147 degrees C <= T(surface) <= 704 degrees C) and performed a surface analysis to elucidate factors that influence blister formation. Tungsten targets that were exposed to low energy (70 eV) D ions at a flux of 1.1 x 10(22) m(-2) s(-1) in the tritium plasma experiment (TPE) were considered. We used AES to analyze the surface for evidence of implanted impurities. Blister diameters and heights were quantified using SEM imagery and vertical scanning interferometry. Given the likelihood of D precipitation in blisters, we expect that the data obtained here could be incorporated into a computational model to better simulate the diffusion and desorption of D in W. With this in mind, we present an analysis of thermal desorption profiles showing the release of D from the surface.

AB The ITER divertor design is the culmination of years of physics and engineering effort, building confidence that this critical component will satisfy the requirements and meet the challenge of burning plasma operation. With 54 cassette assemblies, each weighing similar to 9 tonnes, nearly 3900 actively cooled high heat flux elements rated to steady-state surface power flux densities of 10 MW m(-2) and a total of similar to 60 000 carbon fibre composite monoblocks and similar to 260 000 tungsten monoblocks/flat tiles, the ITER divertor will be the largest and most advanced of its kind ever constructed. Both the ITER Design Review and subsequent follow-up activities have led to a number of modifications to the device, including the divertor design, significantly improving ITER's operational flexibility. This paper outlines the salient features of the final divertor design, with emphasis on the physics rationale that has defined the design choices and on the performance of the resulting configuration.

AB Experiments are described which characterize retention of deuterium in tungsten resulting from exposure to plasma at fluences up to 10(22) Datoms cm(-2). The influence of displacement damage on deuterium retention is investigated for damage levels up to 0.6 displacements per atom (dpa) produced by 12MeV silicon ion irradiation. Near-surface retention associated with precipitation and blistering was seen in both damaged and undamaged material. Trapping at displacement damage was also observed. These experiments determined the number of traps produced versus dpa, and the rate at which they are filled during exposure to plasma. These results indicate that the increase in tritium inventory in the ITER divertor due to trapping at neutron damage should be relatively small due to the shallow depth of penetration of tritium to traps at lower temperatures (<200 degrees C) and the annealing of displacement damage at higher temperatures (>500 degrees C).

ID JOSEPHSON-JUNCTIONS; SUSPENDED GRAPHENE
AB Graphene exhibits unique electrical properties on account of its reduced dimensionality and neutrino-like "massless Dirac fermion" quasiparticle spectrum. When contacted with two superconducting electrodes, graphene can support Cooper pair transport, resulting in the well-known Josephson effect. The current-phase relation in a ballistic graphene Josephson junction is unique, and could provide a signature for the detection of ballistic Dirac fermions. This relation can be measured experimentally either directly via incorporation of graphene in an RF superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID) or indirectly via a dc-SQUID. We calculate the
[GRAPHICS]
expected flux modulation of the switching current in the case of the dc-SQUID and compare the results to a previous experiment. Further experiments investigating the current-phase relation in graphene are promising for the observation of ballistic Dirac fermions. (C) 2009 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim

AB We demonstrate that exterior complex scaling (ECS) can be used to impose outgoing wave boundary conditions exactly on solutions of the time-dependent Schrodinger equation for atoms in intense electromagnetic pulses using finite grid methods. The procedure is formally exact when applied in the appropriate gauge and is demonstrated in a calculation of high-harmonic generation in which multiphoton resonances are seen for long pulse durations. However, we also demonstrate that while the application of ECS in this way is formally exact, numerical error can appear for long-time propagations that can only be controlled by extending the finite grid. A mathematical analysis of the origins of that numerical error, illustrated with an analytically solvable model, is also given.

AB While the binary Fe-X (X=Ni,Pd,Pt) alloys are among the most widely applied bimetallics, open questions remain regarding whether and which of their compounds are stable at low T. Based on density-functional theory and first-principles cluster expansions that are "filtered" against structural and magnetic bistabilities, we assess all three systems. We (i) review the stability of the known phases; (ii) predict phases unstable with respect to bcc-fcc mixtures but stable if restricted to fcc; and, (iii) remarkably, predict previously unknown stable phases. This pinpoints where more definitive low-T experiments should find new stable compounds.

AB We report on studies of spin structures that appear around screw and edge dislocations in Dy (0001) films grown on W (110) substrates. By means of spin-polarized scanning-tunneling microscopy, we have observed the formation of vortexlike and lobe-shaped magnetic structures. We have studied the effect of fundamental dislocations in micromagnetic simulations by including the magnetoelastic interactions in addition to the usually considered energy terms which arise from the magnetocrystalline anisotropy and the exchange energies. Starting from actual physical parameter values for Dy, our calculations are in qualitative and quantitative agreement with the size and the shape of the spin structures experimentally observed.

AB Transparent conducting oxides (TCO) are widely used in technological applications ranging from photovoltaics to thin-film transparent field-effect transistors. In this work we report a first-principles investigation, based on density-functional theory, of the atomic and electronic properties of Ga2O3(ZnO)(6) (GZO(6)), which is a promising candidate to be used as host oxide for wide band gap TCO applications. We identify a low-energy configuration for the coherent distribution of the Ga and Zn atoms in the cation positions within the experimentally reported orthorhombic GZO(6) structure. Four Ga atoms are located in four-fold sites, while the remaining 12 Ga atoms in the unit cell form four shared Ga agglomerates (a motif of four atoms). The Zn atoms are distributed in the remaining cation sites with effective coordination numbers from 3.90 to 4.50. Furthermore, we identify the natural formation of twin-boundaries in GZO(6), which can explain the zigzag modulations observed experimentally by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy in GZO(n) (n=9). Due to the intrinsic twin-boundary formation, polarity inversion in the ZnO tetrahedrons is present which is facilitated by the formation of the Ga agglomerates. Our analysis shows that the formation of fourfold Ga sites and Ga agglomerates are stabilized by the electronic octet rule, while the distribution of Ga atoms and the formation of the twin-boundary help alleviate excess strain. Finally we identify that the electronic properties of GZO(6) are essentially determined by the electronic properties of ZnO, i.e., there are slight changes in the band gap and optical absorption properties.

AB We present temperature-dependent hole drift mobility measurements on polycrystalline CuIn1-xGaxSe2 (CIGS) thin films incorporated into solar-cell structures. The drift mobilities were determined from photocarrier time-of-flight measurements in a depletion region at the top interface with cadmium sulfide. 12 cells, originating in two laboratories, were examined. The drift mobilities ranged from 0.02 to 0.7 cm(2)/Vs at room temperature and were weakly temperature dependent in the range of 100-300 K. These drift mobilities are at the low end of the range of hole mobilities reported from previous Hall effect and admittance measurements for varying CIGS materials. We found approximately a square-root correlation between the width of the depletion layer in our samples and the magnitude of the drift mobility. Both the magnitude and the temperature dependence of the drift mobility are consistent with results in amorphous and nanocrystalline silicon that have been modeled using a disorder-induced transport edge. The source of nanometer-scale disorder in these CIGS materials is not noncrystallinity; chemical composition fluctuations are one alternative source of disorder. The correlation of the depletion-width and drift mobility measurements in CIGS may be evidence for a broader effect of disorder in these materials in both reducing the carrier drift mobility and generating acceptor defects near the valence bandedge. Hole drift mobilities are sensitive to disorder-induced traps near the valence bandedge. Our temperature-dependence measurements indicate that the width of the corresponding valence bandtail is less than 20 meV. Previous optical-absorption spectroscopy showed that Urbach tails in similar CIGS samples are generally 20 meV or wider, which indicates that the valence bandtail does not typically determine the Urbach tails.

AB We investigated external-stress-induced metal-insulator phase transitions in cantilevered single-crystal VO2 nanobeams at variable temperatures using a combined theoretical and experimental approach. An atomic force microscope was used to measure the force-displacement curve of the nanobeams, which showed nonlinearity that signifies activation and expansion of domains of a new phase out of the old one. Superelasticity of the VO2 nanobeam and supersaturation of the phase transition were clearly observed and quantified within the general theory of first-order phase transitions. Phase field modeling was employed to understand the energetics of the domain formation.

AB We study the effects of doping and confinement on the thermoelectric properties of nanocrystalline semiconductors. We calculate the thermopower and figure of merit for temperatures less than the charging energy. For weakly coupled semiconducting grains it is shown that the figure of merit is optimized for grain sizes of order 5 nm for typical materials, and that its value can be larger than one. Using the similarities between granular semiconductors and electron or Coulomb glasses allows for a quantitative description of inhomogeneous semiconducting thermoelectrics.

AB We have made measurements of the de Haas-van Alphen (dHvA) effect and the magnetic susceptibility of La1-xSmxB6 for x=0, 0.05, and 0.10 and Ce1-xCaxB6 for x=0 0.01, 0.03, and 0.05 in order to see changes in the Fermi surface (FS) volume with doping using lower valence substitutions for La and Ce. The FS volume decrease in La1-xSmxB6 is found to be directly proportional to the decrease in the number of electrons contributing to the boron-based conduction band by the decrease in valence of the divalent element. Two overlapping pieces of FS in the same portion of the Brillouin zone are seen to decrease in volume to the extent that they no longer overlap. In the case of Ce1-xCaxB6 the combination of increased disorder decreasing the mean-free path due to doping and heavy effective masses results in the damping of the dHvA oscillations and no signals are observed above x=0.05. Due to the mixed valence of the Ce atoms the volume decrease is not proportional to the percent valence change. Additional magnetic-susceptibility and magnetization measurements show the changing magnetic phase diagram in Ce1-xCaxB6. In the antiferroquadrapolar state of all of the Ce1-xCaxB6 samples the near-zero applied field magnetization is seen to increase with decreasing temperature terminating in a transition to the antiferromagnetic state.

AB We have performed de Haas-van Alphen measurements of the Fermi surface of alpha-uranium single crystals at ambient pressure within the alpha(3) charge-density wave (CDW) state from 0.020-10 K and magnetic fields to 35 T using torque magnetometry. The angular dependence of the resulting frequencies and the effective masses were measured. The observation of quantum oscillations within the alpha(3) CDW state gives insight into the effect of the charge-density waves on the Fermi surface. We observed no signature of superconductivity in either transport or magnetization down to 0.020 K at ambient pressure.

AB Using the quantum Heisenberg model calculations with the Green's function technique generalized for arbitrary spins, we found that for a system of small spins, the quantum spin effects induce the additional magnetic short-range order and strongly affect physical properties of magnets. For instance, the spin waves in the present consideration can appear as a result of short-range spin fluctuations and do not require long-range magnetic order. Our spin dynamics investigation even indicates that these quantum spin effects favor the persistence of propagating spin-wave-like excitations above the Curie temperature. These model studies are relevant to itinerant magnets and suggest the increasing influence of quantum spin effects on the magnetic short-range order with a decrease in quantum spin value. The modified expression for the Curie temperature in ferromagnets is obtained.

AB The compounds BaReH9 and K2ReH9 are the prototypical members of a family of hydrides described as salts of (ReH9)(2-) anions. The structures reflect highly unusual chemistry with short H-H distances and at the same time very high ninefold coordination of Re by hydrogen atoms. This is of interest because of the resulting high hydrogen-to-metal ratios, 4.5 in BaReH9 and 3 in K2ReH9. Here we use density functional calculations to investigate possible new members of this family including both Re and Mn compounds. We find that although SrReH9 and CaReH9 have not been synthesized these are very likely to be stable compounds that may be prepared in a similar manner as the Ba analog. We also find that the manganese counterparts, including K2MnH9, are also likely to be stable and have thermodynamic properties consistent with requirements for hydrogen storage.

ID GRAPHENE
AB We show that previously measured small Fermi-surface pockets within the antiferromagnetic phase of SrFe(2)As(2) and BaFe(2)As(2) are consistent with a Dirac dispersion modulated by interlayer hopping, giving rise to a Dirac point in k space and a cusp in the magnetic field angle-dependent magnetic quantum oscillation frequencies. These findings support the existence of a nodal spin-density wave in these materials, which could play an important role in protecting the metallic state against localization effects. We show that further angle-dependent measurements of the cyclotron effective mass and quantum oscillation amplitude can potentially be used to explore the properties of the quasiparticles close to the Dirac point. The speed of the Dirac fermions in SrFe(2)As(2) and BaFe(2)As(2) is found to be 14-20 times slower than in graphene, suggesting that the pnictides provide a laboratory for exploring quantized Dirac fermions with a much smaller energy scale, making them more likely to be affected by interactions.

AB We present a detailed investigation of the specific heat (0.35 < T < 270 K) and ordinary Hall effect (300 K) in La1-xSrxCoO3 single crystals at 11 doping values in the range 0.00 < x < 0.30. The data reveal a considerable amount of information on the nature of the percolation transition, the crystal and electronic structures, and, most significantly, the magnetoelectronic phase inhomogeneity that has attracted such attention in this material. The observations include a discontinuity in Debye temperature accompanying the insulator-metal transition, direct evidence for the percolative nature of this transition, and a large electron mass enhancement in the metallic state, likely due to strong electron correlation effects. The various contributions to the heat capacity are shown to provide a detailed picture of the phase-separated state and its evolution with doping and are discussed in light of prior neutron-scattering and heat capacity data. This doping dependence provides strong evidence that the phase separation is restricted to a well-defined doping range, 0.04 < x < 0.22, in agreement with a recently proposed model.

AB Atomistic simulations of CdTe using a Stillinger-Weber (SW) interatomic potential were undertaken to model the solid-liquid phase equilibria of this important compound semiconductor. Although this potential has been used by others to study liquid CdTe and vapor-liquid interface, it is based on fitting parameters optimized only for the zincblende solid. It has not been fully explored as a potential for solid-liquid phase equilibria until this work. This research reports an accurate determination of the melting temperature, T-M=1305 K near P=0, the heat of fusion at melting, and on the relative phase densities with a particular emphasis on the melting line. The SW potential for CdTe predicts a liquid with a density slightly less than that of the solid and, hence, the pressure-temperature melting line has a positive slope. The pair-correlation structure of the liquid is determined and favorably compared to neutron-scattering data and to ab initio simulations. The liquid-solid interface is discussed using density profiles and a short-range order parameter for models having principal orientations along << 100 >>, << 110 >>, and << 111 >> crystallographic directions.

AB We report synthesis of high-quality Fe1+y(Te1-xSx)(z) single crystals and a comprehensive study of structural, magnetic, and transport properties. We demonstrate the very small upper critical field anisotropy of Fe1+y(Te1-xSx)(z), gamma(H)=H-c2(c)/H-c2(perpendicular to c). The value of gamma(H) reaches 1.05 at T=0.65T(C) for Fe1.12Te0.83S0.11 while still maintaining large values of upper critical field. There is high sensitivity to material stoichiometry which includes vacancies on the Te(S) site. Our results reveal competition and coexistence of magnetic order and percolative superconductivity for x >= 0.03 while zero resistivity is achieved for x >= 0.1.

AB By performing angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy of the bilayer colossal magnetoresistive (CMR) manganite, La2-2xSr1+2xMn2O7, we provide the complete mapping of the Fermi-level spectral weight topology. Clear and unambiguous bilayer splitting of the in-plane 3d(x)(2)-y(2) band, mapped throughout the Brillouin zone, and the full mapping of the 3d(3z)(2)-r(2) band are reported. Peculiar doping and temperature dependencies of these bands imply that as transition from the ferromagnetic metallic phase approaches, either as a function of doping or temperature, coherence along the c-axis between planes within the bilayer is lost, resulting in reduced interplane coupling. These results suggest that interplane coupling plays a large role in the CMR transition.

AB Using scanning tunneling microscopy and spectroscopy, we demonstrate that the adsorption of a minute amount of Cs on a Pb mesa grown in the quantum regime can induce dramatic morphological changes in the mesa, characterized by the appearance of populous monatomic-layer-high Pb nanoislands on top of the mesa. The edges of the Pb nanoislands are decorated with Cs adatoms, and the nanoislands preferentially nucleate and grow on the quantum mechanically unstable regions of the mesa. Furthermore, first-principles calculations within density-functional theory show that the Pb atoms forming these nanoislands were expelled by the adsorbed Cs atoms via a kinetically accessible place-exchange process when the Cs atoms alloyed into the top layer of the Pb mesa.

AB Heat capacity measurements in zero and applied magnetic fields have been performed on a series of Er1-xTbxAl2 pseudobinary Laves-phase alloys. Different anomalies that change with Tb concentrations have been observed. These anomalies represent multiple magnetic ordering phenomena, similar to those reported in Er1-xPrx and Er1-xDyxAl2 alloys. In common, all alloys contain mixtures of lanthanide metals with opposite signs of the second-order Steven's operators, which were believed to cause competition between the magnetoelastic, crystalline electric field, and quadrupolar effects. This competition gives rise to the observed multiple magnetic ordering transitions in Er1-xPrx and Er1-xDyxAl2 alloys. Tb and Er also have opposite signs of second-order Steven's factors, and therefore the observed anomalies in the Er1-xTbxAl2 alloys may also be interpreted in terms of competing quadrupolar, magnetoelastic, and crystalline electric field effects.

AB The spatially resolved electrical transport properties have been studied on the surface of optimally doped superconducting Ba(Fe1-xCox)(2)As-2 single crystal by using a four-probe scanning tunneling microscopy. While some nonuniform contrast appears near the edge of the cleaved crystal, the scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals mostly uniform contrast. For the regions that showed uniform SEM contrast, a sharp superconducting transition at T-C=22.1 K has been observed with a transition width Delta T-C=0.2 K. In the nonuniform contrast region, T-C is found to vary between 19.6 and 22.2 K with Delta T-C from 0.3 to 3.2 K. The wavelength dispersive x-ray spectroscopy reveals that Co concentration remains 7.72% in the uniform region, but changes between 7.38% and 7.62% in the nonuniform region. Thus the variations of superconductivity are associated with local compositional change.

TI Magnetic phase diagram of a spin-1 condensate in two dimensions with

AB Several new features arise in the ground-state phase diagram of a spin-1 condensate trapped in an optical trap when the magnetic-dipole interaction between the atoms is taken into account along with confinement and spin precession. The boundaries between the regions of ferromagnetic and polar phases move as the dipole strength is varied and the ferromagnetic phases can be modulated. The magnetization of the ferromagnetic phase perpendicular to the field becomes modulated as a helix winding around the magnetic field direction with a wavelength inversely proportional to the dipole strength. This modulation should be observable for current experimental parameters in Rb-87. Hence the much-sought supersolid state with broken continuous translation invariance in one direction and broken global U(1) invariance, occurs generically as a metastable state in this system as a result of dipole interaction. The ferromagnetic state parallel to the applied magnetic field becomes striped in a finite system at strong dipolar coupling.

AB The magnetic susceptibilities and specific heats of the crystalline garnet and glass forms of Mn3Al2Si3O12 are reported. This allows a direct comparison of the degree of magnetic frustration of the triangle-based garnet lattice and the structurally disordered solid at the same composition for isotropic spin 5/2 Mn2+ (3d(5)). The results show that the glass phase shows more pronounced signs of magnetic frustration than the crystalline phase. Through comparison of the specific heats of Ca3Al2Si3O12 (grossular) and Mn3Al2Si3O12 (spessartine) garnets, information is provided concerning the anomalous extra specific heat in the latter material.

AB We report inelastic x-ray scattering experiments on the lattice dynamics in SmFeAsO and superconducting SmFeAsO0.60F0.35 single crystals. Particular attention was paid to the dispersions along the [100] direction of three optical modes close to 23 meV, polarized out of the FeAs planes. Remarkably, two of these modes are strongly renormalized upon fluorine doping. These results provide significant insight into the energy and momentum dependence of the coupling of the lattice to the electron system and underline the importance of spin-phonon coupling in the superconducting iron pnictides.

AB We report experiments in a large, 2.5 mu m diameter Fabry-Perot quantum Hall interferometer with two tunneling constrictions. Interference fringes are observed as conductance oscillations as a function of applied magnetic field (the Aharonov-Bohm flux through the electron island) or a global backgate voltage (electronic charge in the island). Depletion is such that in the fractional quantum Hall regime, filling 1/3 current-carrying chiral edge channels pass through constrictions when the island filling is 2/5. The interferometer device is calibrated with fermionic electrons in the integer quantum Hall regime. In the fractional regime, we observe magnetic flux and charge periods 5h/e and 2e, respectively, corresponding to creation of ten e/5 Laughlin quasiparticles in the island. These results agree with our prior report of the superperiods in a much smaller interferometer device. The observed experimental periods are interpreted as imposed by anyonic statistical interaction of fractionally charged quasiparticles.

AB Using neutron scattering and the pair-density-function analysis, we investigated, the local atomic structure of the ferrimagnetic dielectric Tb3Fe5O12 garnet. Pronounced magnetic diffuse scattering is observed at high temperatures that gradually decreases with cooling as the Tb spins take on an ordered structure at about 50 K. In the temperature range where the dielectric (epsilon) constant is enhanced, a volume striction is observed from the diffraction measurements under a magnetic field that couples the magnetic response to the dielectric properties. At the same time, large oxygen displacements, on the order of 0.1-0.2 A degrees, are observed starting first at 90 K that persist up to 550 K, resulting in the formation of electric dipoles. However, they are not ordered and the lack of a unique polar axis in the hyperkagome structure may be linked to the absence of a polarized phase in this system. If it were present, the system could have a high ferroelectric transition temperature.

AB The phonon density of states (DOS) and phonon entropy of B2 FeAl were determined as functions of the Fe site vacancy concentration using several scattering techniques and were computed from first principles. Measurements at elevated temperature and pressure were performed to explore volume effects, test the usefulness of the quasiharmonic (QH) approximation, and provide comparison for the first-principles calculations. The average temperature and pressure dependencies of phonons were consistent with the QH model. The decrease in specific volume associated with the introduction of vacancies causes a stiffening of the DOS that was captured well with the experimentally determined Gruumlneisen parameter. Features associated with vacancies in the DOS are not well explained by this model, however, especially in the gap between the acoustic and optic branches. First-principles calculations indicated that these modes are primarily associated with vibrations of Al atoms in the first-nearest-neighbor shell of the vacancy, with some vibration amplitude also involving the second-nearest-neighbor Fe atoms. At the vacancy concentrations of study, the phonon entropy of vacancy formation was found to be approximately -1.7k(B)/atom, about half as large and of opposite sign as the configurational entropy of vacancy formation.

AB The dispersion of electrons and phonons near the K point of bilayer graphene was investigated in a resonant Raman study using different laser excitation energies in the near-infrared and visible range. The electronic structure was analyzed within the tight-binding approximation, and the Slonczewski-Weiss-McClure parameters were obtained from the analysis of the dispersive behavior of the Raman features. A softening of the phonon branches was observed near the K point and results evidence the Kohn anomaly and the importance of considering electron-phonon and electron-electron interactions to correctly describe the phonon dispersion in graphene systems, confirming the theoretical predictions by Lazzeri.

ID EXCITONS; SEMICONDUCTORS; PAIRS; GAP
AB We report on the excitonic luminescence from two nearby nitrogen atoms (a dyad) in GaAs with and without an external magnetic field. The data are analyzed using a Hamiltonian taking into account the effects of the exchange interaction, the crystal field, and the Zeeman interaction and allowing the evaluation of the relative oscillator strength of the optical transitions and their polarization. Without the external magnetic field, we determine the exchange and crystal-field parameters characterizing the four excitonic states observed from dyads oriented along [110] or [110] and find that it is necessary to reduce the symmetry of all the terms involved in the Hamiltonian to the symmetry of the dyads (C(2v)). As expected from two smaller atoms, the parameters indicate a dyad under tensile strain. Although the degeneracy of all excitonic states is already lifted, the magnetic field allows a closer examination of the nature of these states. The small diamagnetic shift of 1.99 +/- 0.06 mu eV T(-2) is consistent with a strong localization of the electron to the nitrogen dyad and the g factor of the electron is an intermediate value between that of a free electron in GaAs and a perfectly localized electron.

AB First-principles molecular-dynamics simulations based on a recently developed exchange-correlation functional show that self-diffusion in the refractory metal molybdenum is associated with strongly temperature-dependent activation energies for vacancy formation and migration. While static calculations of self-diffusion rates based on transition-state theory deviate systematically from experiments, with up to two orders of magnitude, the current results are accurate to within a mean deviation of 4 over the experimental range in temperature.

AB Spin and charge susceptibilities and the 4f(n), 4f(n-1), and 4f(n+1) configuration weights are calculated for compressed Ce (n=1), Pr (n=2), and Nd (n=3) metals at 632 K using dynamical mean-field theory combined with the local-density approximation. At ambient and larger volumes these trivalent rare earths are pinned at sharp 4f(n) configurations, their 4f moments assume atomic-limiting values, are unscreened, and the 4f charge fluctuations are small indicating little f state density near the Fermi level. Under compression there is dramatic screening of the moments and an associated increase in both the 4f charge fluctuations and static charge susceptibility. These changes coincide with growing weights of the 4f(n-1) configurations, which it is argued are better measures of delocalization than the 4f(n+1) weights which are compromised by an increase in the number of 4f electrons caused by rising 6s and 6p bands. This process is continuous and prolonged as a function of volume, with striking similarity among the three rare earths, aside from the effects moderating and shifting to smaller volumes for the heavier members. While the present calculations have been carried out at 632 K for reasons of computational expense, tests of the temperature sensitivities are used to indicate the kind of modest changes expected at room temperature.

Here, we offer a derivation of the self-energy in two dimensions due to pair formation and compare it to photoemission data. We then use our results to address several questions of interest, including the existence of magneto-oscillations in the presence of the pseudogap and the two-length-scale nature of vortices in underdoped cuprates.

AB Thermodynamics of tip-induced nanodomain formation in scanning probe microscopy of ferroelectric films and crystals is studied using the analytical Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire approach and phase-field modeling. The local redistribution of polarization induced by the biased probe apex is analyzed including the effects of polarization gradients, field dependence of dielectric properties, intrinsic domain-wall width, and film thickness. The polarization distribution inside a "subcritical" nucleus of the domain preceding the nucleation event is shown to be "soft" (i.e., smooth without domain walls) and localized below the probe, and the electrostatic field distribution is dominated by the tip. In contrast, polarization distribution inside a stable domain is "hard" (i.e., sharp contrast with delineated domain walls) and the spontaneous polarization reorientation takes place inside a localized spatial region, where the absolute value of the resulting electric field is larger than the thermodynamic coercive field. The calculated coercive biases corresponding to formation of switched domains are in a good agreement with available experimental results for typical ferroelectric materials. The microscopic origin of the observed domain-tip elongation in the region where the probe electric field is much smaller than the intrinsic coercive field is the positive depolarization field in front of the moving-counter domain wall. For infinitely thin domain wall the depolarization field outside the semiellipsoidal domain tip is always higher than the intrinsic coercive field that must initiate the local domain breakdown through the sample depth while the domain length is finite in the energetic approach evolved by Landauer and Molotskii (we refer the phenomenon as Landauer-Molotskii paradox). Our approach provides the solution of the paradox: the domain vertical growth should be accompanied by the increase in the charged domain-wall width.

AB The static and dynamic properties of V4+ spins (S=1/2) in the frustrated square-lattice compound Pb-2(VO)(PO4)(2) were investigated by means of magnetic susceptibility chi and P-31 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) shift (K) and P-31 nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T-1 measurements on a single crystal. This compound exhibits long-range antiferromagnetic order below T-N similar or equal to 3.65 K. NMR spectra above T-N show two distinct lines corresponding to two inequivalent P sites present in the crystal structure. The observed asymmetry in hyperfine coupling constant for the in-plane (P1) P site directly points toward a distortion in the square lattice at the microscopic level, consistent with the monoclinic crystal structure. The nearest- and next-nearest-neighbor exchange couplings were estimated by fitting K versus temperature T by a high-temperature series expansion for the spin susceptibility of the frustrated square lattice to be J(1)/k(B)=(-5.4 +/- 0.5) K (ferromagnetic) and J(2)/k(B)=(9.3 +/- 0.6) K (antiferromagnetic), respectively. 1/(T1T chi) is almost T independent at high temperatures due to random fluctuation of spin moments. Below 20 K, the compound shows an enhancement of 1/(T1T chi) which arises from a growth of antiferromagnetic spin correlations above T-N. Below T-N and for the field applied along the c axis, the NMR spectrum for the P1 site splits into two satellites and the spacing between them increases monotonically with decreasing T which is a direct evidence of a columnar antiferromagnetic ordering with spins lying in the ab plane. This type of magnetic ordering is consistent with expectation from the J(2)/J(1)similar or equal to-1.72 ratio. The critical exponent beta=0.25 +/- 0.02 estimated from the temperature dependence of the sublattice magnetization as measured by P-31 NMR at 11.13 MHz is close to the value (0.231) predicted for the two-dimensional XY model.

ID LIQUID WATER; CU(110); ICE; ADSORPTION; PHASES
AB We demonstrate the sensitivity of x-ray absorption spectroscopy to hydrogen bonding using as experimental model system water on Ru(0001). We stepwise go from fully broken to complete H-bond network by varying the morphology from isolated monomers via two-dimensional clusters to a saturated monolayer as probed by scanning tunneling microscopy. The sensitivity of x-ray absorption to the symmetry of H bonding is further elucidated for the amino (-NH2) group in glycine adsorbed on Cu(110) where the E vector is parallel either to the NH donating an H bond or to the non-H-bonded NH. We show that the pre-edge in the x-ray absorption spectrum is associated with an asymmetric hydrogen-bonding situation while the postedge is directly associated with hydrogen bond formation. The results give further evidence for the much debated interpretation of the various spectral features of liquid water and demonstrate the general applicability of x-ray absorption spectroscopy to analyze H-bonded systems.

AB We present ab initio calculations of the linear optical conductivity of heated Al at ambient pressure and at the conditions relevant for shock melting (P similar to 125 GPa, T similar to 5000 K). It is shown that the visible and near-UV optical spectrum is very sensitive to the phase (fcc solid versus liquid) of Al for both P=0 and 125 GPa. The ambient-P results confirm an earlier prediction and the results of a recent experiment while the high-(P,T) results allow us to conclude that in situ measurements of optical constants should be able to diagnose the shock melting of Al.

AB In a recent paper [R. P. Panguluri , Phys. Rev. B 78, 125307 (2008)] we measured the spin polarization of europium oxide in direct contact with highly conductive silicon. In this Reply we address the issues raised in the preceding Comment [A. Schmehl Phys. Rev. B80, 237301 (2009)] by discussing the rationale behind the choice of experimental geometries. We argue that the choice of geometries is primarily determined by the objectives of the measurements. While the main goal of our work was to determine the spin polarization of polycrystalline EuO1-x fabricated on a conductive Si substrate, the aim of A. Schmehl , Nature Mater. 6, 882 (2007) was to perform the spin-polarization measurements of epitaxial LaxEuO1-x on an insulating YAlO3 substrate. From this perspective, the statement in our paper was fully justified.

AB We investigate the influence of quantum fluctuations and weak disorder on the vortex dynamics in a two-dimensional superconducting Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless system. The temperature below which quantum fluctuations dominate the vortex creep is determined and the transport in this quantum regime is described. The crossover from quantum to classical regime is discussed and the quantum correction to the classical current-voltage relation is determined. It is found that weak disorder can effectively reduce the critical current as compared to that in the clean system.

AB We study the phase diagram of spin-one polar condensates in a two-dimensional optical lattice with magnetic anisotropy. We show that the topological binding of vorticity to nematic disclinations allows for a rich variety of phase transitions. These include Kosterlitz-Thouless-like transitions with a superfluid stiffness jump that can be experimentally tuned to take a continuous set of values, and a cascaded Kosterlitz-Thouless transition, characterized by two divergent length scales. For higher integer spin bosons S, the thermal phase transition out of the planar polar phase is strongly affected by the parity of S.

AB We present an efficient generalization of the k-space interpolation scheme for electronic structure presented by Shirley [Phys. Rev. B 54, 16464 (1996)]. The method permits the construction of a compact k-dependent Hamiltonian using a numerically optimal basis derived from a coarse-grained set of effective single-particle electronic-structure calculations (based on density-functional theory in this work). We provide some generalizations of the initial approach which reduce the number of required initial electronic-structure calculations, enabling accurate interpolation over the entire Brillouin zone based on calculations at the zone center only for large systems. We also generalize the representation of nonlocal Hamiltonians, leading to a more efficient implementation which permits the use of both norm-conserving and ultrasoft pseudopotentials in the input calculations. Numerically interpolated electronic eigenvalues with accuracy that is within 0.01 eV can be produced at very little computational cost. Furthermore, accurate eigenfunctions-expressed in the optimal basis-provide easy access to useful matrix elements for simulating spectroscopy and we provide details for computing optical transition amplitudes. The approach is also applicable to other theoretical frameworks such as the Dyson equation for quasiparticle excitations or the Bethe-Salpeter equation for optical responses.

AB Heterogeneous gasless reactive systems, including high-energy density metal-nonmetal compositions, have seen increasing study due to their various applications. However, owing to their high reaction temperature, short reaction time, and small scale of heterogeneity, investigation of their reaction mechanisms and kinetics is very difficult. In this study, microstructural changes and the kinetics of product layer growth in the W-Si system was investigated using a high-speed x-ray phase-contrast imaging technique. Using the Advanced Photon Source of Argonne National Laboratory, this method allowed direct imaging of irreversible reactions in the W-Si reactive system at frame rates up to 36 000 frames per second with 4 mu s exposure and spatial resolution of 10 mu m. Details of the Si melt and reactions between W and Si, that are unable to be viewed with visible-light imaging, were revealed. These include processes such as the initiation of nucleated melting and other physical phenomena that provide insight into the mixing of reactants and subsequent reaction. Through the use of this imaging technique and future optimization in the imaging process, a model for accurately identifying kinetics of chemical reactions, both spatially and temporally, is also proposed.

ID SUPERCONDUCTIVITY
AB We measured phonon frequencies and linewidths in doped and undoped BaFe2As2 single crystals by inelastic x-ray scattering and compared our results with density functional theory calculations. In agreement with previous work, the calculated frequencies of some phonons depended on whether the ground state was magnetic or not and, in the former case, whether phonon wave vector was parallel or perpendicular to the magnetic ordering wave vector. The experimental results agreed better with the magnetic calculation than with zero Fe moment calculations, except the peak splitting expected due to magnetic domain twinning was not observed. Furthermore, phonon frequencies were unaffected by the breakdown of the magnetic ground state due to either doping or increased temperature. Based on these results we propose that phonons strongly couple not to the static order, but to high frequency magnetic fluctuations.

AB The crystallographic symmetries and spatial distribution of stacking domains in graphene films on 6H-SiC(0001) have been studied by low-energy electron diffraction and dark-field imaging in a low-energy electron microscope. We find that the graphene diffraction spots from two and three atomic layers of graphene have three-fold symmetry consistent with AB (Bernal or rhombohedral) stacking of the layers. On the contrary, graphene diffraction spots from the buffer layer and monolayer graphene have apparent six-fold symmetry, although the three-fold nature of the satellite spots indicates a more complex periodicity in the graphene sheets.

AB Low-energy electron microscopy reveals a mode of graphene growth on Ru(0001) in which Ru atoms are etched from a step edge and injected under a growing graphene sheet. Based on density-functional calculations, we propose a model wherein injected Ru atoms form metastable islands under the graphene. Scanning tunneling microscopy reveals that dislocation networks exist near step edges, consistent with some of the injected atoms being incorporated into the topmost Ru layer, thereby increasing its density.

AB In situ low-energy electron microscopy (LEEM) of graphene growth combined with measurements of the graphene structure and electronic band structure has been used to study graphene on Pt(111). Growth by carbon segregation produces macroscopic monolayer graphene domains extending continuously across Pt(111) substrate steps and bounded by strongly faceted edges. LEEM during cooling from the growth temperature shows the propagation of wrinkles in the graphene sheet, driven by thermal stress. The lattice mismatch between graphene and Pt(111) is accommodated by moireacute structures with a large number of different rotational variants, without a clear preference for a particular interface geometry. Fast and slow growing graphene domains exhibit moireacute structures with small [e.g., (3x3)(G), (6x6)R2(G), and (2x2)R4(G)] and large unit cells [e.g., (44x44)R15(G), (52x52)R14(G), and (8x8)(G)], respectively. A weak substrate coupling, suggested by the growth and structural properties of monolayer graphene on Pt(111), is confirmed by maps of the band structure, which is close to that of isolated graphene aside from minimal hole doping due to charge transfer from the metal. Finally, the decoupled graphene monolayer on Pt(111) appears impenetrable to carbon diffusion, which self-limits the graphene growth at monolayer thickness. Thicker graphene domains, which can form at boundaries between monolayer domains, have been used to characterize the properties of few-layer graphene on Pt(111).

AB Excitation energies of light-emitting conjugated polymers have been investigated with time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) within the adiabatic approximation. Our calculations show that the accuracy of the calculated TDDFT excitation energies largely depends on the dihedral angles obtained by the ground-state DFT geometry optimization. We find that, when the DFT torsional dihedral angles are close to experimental estimates, the TDDFT excitation energies agree well with experiments. This trend is observed based on calculations of eight different polymeric systems considered here. We further show that while hybrid density functionals can respect the thumb rule of E(T)approximate to 2E(S)/3, where E(S) is the singlet-singlet excitation energy and E(T) the singlet-triplet excitation energy, nonhybrid functionals do not.

TI Kinetic magnetism and orbital order in iron telluride
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
DE high-temperature superconductors; iron compounds; magnetism;
photoelectron spectra; solid-state phase transformations
AB Iron telluride (FeTe), a relative of the iron-based high-temperature superconductors, displays unusual magnetic order and structural transitions. Here, we explore the idea that strong correlations may play an important role in these materials. We argue that the unusual orders observed in FeTe can be understood from a picture of correlated local moments with orbital degeneracy, coupled to a small density of itinerant electrons. A component of the structural transition is attributed to orbital, rather than magnetic ordering, introducing a strongly anisotropic character to the system along the diagonal directions of the iron lattice. Double exchange interactions couple the diagonal chains leading to the observed ordering wave vector. The incommensurate order in samples with excess iron arises from electron doping in this scenario. The strong anisotropy of physical properties in the ordered phase should be detectable by transport in single domains. Predictions for ARPES, inelastic neutron scattering and hole/electron doping studies are also made.

AB The phase stabilities of Y2Ti2O7 and Y2Zr2O7 under high pressure were investigated by ab initio methods. Pyrochlore-structured Y2Ti2O7 and defect-fluorite Y2Zr2O7 exhibit different responses to high pressure. Both the defect-fluorite and defect-cotunnite structures are energetically more stable at high pressure in Y2Ti2O7, but comparison with experimental results suggest that only the transformation to the defect-fluorite structure is kinetically favored. For Y2Zr2O7, the defect-fluorite phase should undergo a structural transformation to the defect-cotunnite state under high pressure.

AB We use point-contact Andreev-reflection measurements to determine the spin polarization of the transport current in pulse laser deposited thin films of ZnO with 1% Al and with and without 2% Mn. Only films with Mn are ferromagnetic and show spin polarization of the transport current of up to 55 +/- 0.5% at 4.2 K, in sharp contrast to measurements of the nonmagnetic films without Mn where the polarization is consistent with zero. Our results imply strongly that ferromagnetism in these Al-doped ZnO films requires the presence of Mn.

AB Angle-resolved photoemission measurements were performed on Zn-doped La2-xSrxCuO4 to investigate the effects of Zn impurities on the low-energy electronic structure. The Zn-impurity-induced increase in the quasiparticle width in momentum distribution curves (MDCs) is approximately isotropic on the entire Fermi surface and energy independent near the Fermi level (E-F). The increase in the MDC width is consistent with the increase in the residual resistivity due to the Zn impurities if we assume the carrier number to be 1-x for x=0.17 and the Zn impurity to be a potential scatterer close to the unitarity limit. For x=0.03, the residual resistivity is found to be higher than that expected from the MDC width, and the effects of antiferromagnetic fluctuations induced around the Zn impurities are discussed. The leading edges of the spectra near (pi,0) for x=0.17 are shifted toward higher energies relative to E-F with Zn substitution, indicating a reduction in the superconducting gap.

AB We studied the unusual quantum Hall effect (QHE) near the charge neutrality point in high-mobility graphene sample for magnetic fields up to 18 T. We observe breakdown of the delocalized QHE transport and strong increase in resistivities rho(xx),vertical bar rho(xy)vertical bar with decreasing Landau-level filling for nu < 2, where we identify two insulating regimes. First, rho(xx,xy) increases nearly exponentially within the range of several resistance quanta R(K), while the Hall effect gradually disappears and the off-diagonal resistivity rho(xy) eventually becomes independent of the direction of magnetic field, consistent with the Hall insulator with local transport. Then, at a filling nu approximate to 1/2, there is a cusp in rho(xx)(nu) and an onset of even faster growth with the decreasing nu, indicating transition to a collective insulator state. A likely candidate for this state is a pinned Wigner crystal.

AB We report first-principles supercell investigations of LaFe1-xZnxAsO. These are discussed in relation to existing experimental data on Zn-doped LaFeAsO. As expected, Zn occurs in a d(10) configuration in the alloy, similar to the pure Zn compound LaZnAsO. This is highly disruptive to the electronic structure of LaFeAsO near the Fermi energy, which is heavily derived from Fe d states. This favors localization and the formation of local moments on the Fe atoms near the Zn.

AB Large atomic size mismatch between compounds discourages their binding into a common lattice because of the ensuing cost in strain energy. This central paradigm in the theory of isovalent alloys long used to disqualify alloys with highly mismatched components from technological use is clearly broken by the occurrence of stable spontaneous long-range order in mixtures of alkali halides with as much as 40% size mismatch (e.g., LiF-CsF). Our theoretical analysis of these failures uncovered a different design principle for stable alloys: very large atomic size mismatch can lead to spontaneous ordering if the large (small) components have the ability to raise (lower) their coordination number (CN) within the mixed phase. This heuristic design principle has led us to explore via first-principles structure search a few very largely mismatched binary systems whose components have a propensity for CN disproportionation. We find ordered structures for BeO-BaO (37% size mismatch) and BeO-SrO (30%), and ordering in LiCl-KCl (20%), whereas BN-InN (33%) is found to lower its positive formation enthalpy by similar to 60% when CN disproportionation is allowed. This new design principle could be used to explore phases unsuspected to order by the common paradigm of strain instability.

AB We study excitations in weakly interacting pairs of quantum spin ladders coupled through geometrically frustrated bonds. The ground state is a disordered spin liquid that at high fields is replaced by an ordered chiral helimagnetic phase. The spectra observed by high-field inelastic neutron scattering experiments on the prototype compound Sul-Cu(2)Cl(4) are qualitatively different from those in the previously studied frustration-free spin liquids. Beyond the critical field H(c)=3.7 T, the soft mode that drives the quantum phase transition spawns two separate excitations: a gapless Goldstone mode and a massive magnon. Additional massive quasiparticles are clearly visible below H(c), but are destroyed in the ordered phase. In their place one observes a sharply bound excitation continuum.

TI Orbital hybridization in RVO3 perovskites: A high-pressure study
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B

DT Article

transformations; lanthanum compounds; phonons; spin-orbit interactions;

ID YVO3
AB The RVO3 perovskites undergo orbital ordering and orbital-flipping transitions as well as a spin ordering transition. However, the existing model of orbital ordering fails to explain the thermal conductivity, which remains poor and glassy in the orbitally ordered phase. The phonon thermal conductivity is restored only below a first-order orbital-flipping transition. Orbital ordering induces a specific lattice distortion, which makes uniaxial pressure suitable to distinguish and verify all possible orbital and spin orderings in orthorhombic RVO3. We have made a systematic study of orbital/spin transitions in single-crystal samples of RVO3 (R=Dy, Y1-xLax) under uniaxial and hydrostatic pressure. Comparison of the uniaxial and hydrostatic pressure effects on the spin/orbital-flipping transition permits us to identify orbital fluctuations due to the hybridization of t(2) and et orbitals in the type-G orbitally ordered phase.

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

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C

ID ENERGY-LEVELS; ELEMENTS; NUCLEI; FM-255
AB Single-particle state assignments in Cf-251 and Cm-249 at similar to 1 MeV excitation have been deduced from cross sections previously measured for the Cf-250(d,p)Cf-251 and Cm-248(He-4,He-3)Cm-249 reactions. The assignments are supported by observed cross-section signatures and intraband level spacings. The observed energies of these single-particle states, after pairing effects are removed, are in good agreement with values calculated using a Woods-Saxon single-particle potential. Neutron level diagrams, showing level spacings as a function of nu(2),nu(4), and nu(6), are extended to include neutron orbitals above N=164.

ID ATMOSPHERIC NEUTRINO FLUX; PRODUCTION CROSS-SECTION; OF-FLIGHT SYSTEM;
HARP EXPERIMENT; GEV/C PROTONS; CERN PS; PHYSICS PERFORMANCE; POSITIVE
PIONS; PI(+/-); CALIBRATION
AB The HARP Collaboration has presented measurements of the double-differential pi(+/-) production cross section in the range of momentum 100 MeV/c <= p <= 800 MeV/c and angle 0.35 rad <=theta <= 2.15 rad with proton beams hitting thin nuclear targets. In many applications the extrapolation to long targets is necessary. In this article the analysis of data taken with long (one interaction length) solid cylindrical targets made of carbon, tantalum, and lead is presented. The data were taken with the large-acceptance HARP detector in the T9 beam line of the CERN proton synchrotron. The secondary pions were produced by beams of protons with momenta of 5, 8, and 12GeV/c. The tracking and identification of the produced particles were performed using a small-radius cylindrical time projection chamber placed inside a solenoidal magnet. Incident protons were identified by an elaborate system of beam detectors. Results are obtained for the double-differential yields per target nucleon d(2)sigma/dpd theta. The measurements are compared with predictions of the MARS and GEANT4 Monte Carlo simulations.

AB Measurements of the double-differential pi(+/-) production cross section in the range of momentum 100 <= p <= 800 MeV/c and angle 0.35 <=theta <= 2.15 rad using pi(+/-) beams incident on beryllium, aluminum, carbon, copper, tin, tantalum, and lead targets are presented. The data were taken with the large-acceptance hadron production (HARP) detector in the T9 beam line of the CERN Proton Synchrotron. The secondary pions were produced by beams in a momentum range from 3 to 12.9GeV/c hitting a solid target with a thickness of 5% of a nuclear interaction length. The tracking and identification of the produced particles was performed using a small-radius cylindrical time projection chamber placed inside a solenoidal magnet. Incident particles were identified by an elaborate system of beam detectors. Results are obtained for the double-differential cross sections d(2)sigma/dp d theta at six incident-beam momenta. Data at 3,5,8, and 12GeV/c are available for all targets, while additional data at 8.9 and 12.9GeV/c were taken in positive particle beams on Be and Al targets, respectively. The measurements are compared with several generators of GEANT4 and the MARS Monte Carlo simulation.

AB We study systematically the impact of the time-even tensor terms of the Skyrme energy density functional, i.e., terms bilinear in the spin-current tensor density, on deformation properties of closed-shell nuclei corresponding to 20,28,40,50,82, and 126 neutron or proton shell closures. We compare results obtained with three different families of Skyrme parametrizations whose tensor terms have been adjusted on properties of spherical nuclei: (i) TIJ interactions proposed in the first article of this series [T. Lesinski , Phys. Rev. C 76, 014312 (2007)] that were constructed through a complete readjustment of the rest of the functional and (ii) parametrizations whose tensor terms have been added perturbatively to existing Skyrme interactions, with or without readjusting the spin-orbit coupling constant. We analyze in detail the mechanisms at play behind the impact of tensor terms on deformation properties and how studying the latter can help screen out unrealistic parametrizations. It is expected that findings of the present article are to a large extent independent of remaining deficiencies of the central and spin-orbit interactions and will be of great value for the construction of future, improved energy functionals.

AB A scenario is suggested in which the three light quark flavors are sequentially deconfined under increasing pressure in cold asymmetric nuclear matter as found, for example, in neutron stars. The basis for this analysis is a chiral quark matter model of Nambu-Jona-Lasinio (NJL) type with diquark pairing in the spin-1 single-flavor, spin-0 two-flavor, and three-flavor channels. Nucleon dissociation sets in at about the saturation density, n(0), when the down-quark Fermi sea is populated (d-quark drip line) because of the flavor asymmetry induced by beta equilibrium and charge neutrality. At about 3n(0), u-quarks appear and a two-flavor color superconducting (2SC) phase is formed. The s-quark Fermi sea is populated only at still higher baryon density, when the quark chemical potential is of the order of the dynamically generated strange quark mass. Two different hybrid equations of state (EOSs) are constructed using the Dirac-Brueckner Hartree-Fock (DBHF) approach and the EOS of Shen [H. Shen, H. Toki, K. Oyamatsu, and K. Sumiyoshi, Nucl. Phys. A637, 435 (1998)] in the nuclear matter sector. The corresponding hybrid star sequences have maximum masses of 2.1 and 2.0 M-circle dot, respectively. Two- and three-flavor quark-matter phases exist only in gravitationally unstable hybrid star solutions in the DBHF case, whereas the Shen-based EOSs produce stable configurations with a 2SC phase component in the core of massive stars. Nucleon dissociation via d-quark drip could act as a deep crustal heating process, which apparently is required to explain superbursts and cooling of x-ray transients.

AB We directly measure the F-17(p,gamma)Ne-18 resonant reaction using a mixed beam of F-17 and O-17 at the Holifield Radioactive Ion Beam Facility at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL). The astrophysically important 3(+) resonance at similar to 600 keV above the proton threshold in Ne-18 is found to have a partial width Gamma(gamma)=56 +/- 24(stat)+/- 30(sys) meV, in reasonable agreement with the theoretically predicted width. A 2 sigma upper limit on the direct capture of S(E)<= 65 keV b is determined at an energy of 800 keV. Experimental techniques and astrophysical implications are discussed.

TI Robust test of E(5) symmetry in Xe-128
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C
LA English
DT Article
ID NUCLEI; EXCITATIONS; DECAY
AB Low-lying collectively excited states of Xe-128 were investigated by gamma-ray spectroscopy following the C-12(Xe-128,Xe-128(*))C-12 projectile Coulomb excitation reaction. Nineteen absolute E2 transition strengths were obtained including the first measurement of the critical B(E2) decays from the second and third J(pi)=0(+) states. These data are compared with the theoretical predictions of the critical point symmetry E(5) and allow us to conclude that Xe-128 is not an E(5) nucleus as previously suggested, leaving Xe-130 as the most likely candidate among the Xe isotopes.

AB The relativistic projectile fragmentation of a 750 MeV per nucleon beam of Ag-107 was used to populate isomeric states in neutron-deficient nuclei around A=80-90. Reaction products were separated and unambiguously identified using the GSI FRagment Separator (FRS) and its ancillary detectors. At the final focal plane, the fragments were slowed from relativistic energies by means of an aluminium degrader and implanted in a passive stopper in the center of the high-efficiency, high-granularity Stopped Rare Isotope Spectroscopic INvestigation at GSI (RISING) germanium array. This allowed the identification of excited states in the N=Z nuclei Tc-86(43) and, for the first time, Nb-82(41). Isomeric states have also been identified for the first time in Tc-87,Tc-88, and a previously unreported isomer was observed in Nb-84. Experimental results are presented along with a discussion on the structure of these nuclei based on interpretations provided by several theoretical models.

ID NUCLEON RESONANCE REGION; MESON PRODUCTION; EXCITATION; PROTON
AB Within a dynamical coupled-channels model that has already been fixed by analyzing the data of the pi N ->pi N and gamma N ->pi N reactions, we present the predicted double pion photoproduction cross sections up to the second resonance region, W < 1.7 GeV. The roles played by the different mechanisms within our model in determining both the single and double pion photoproduction reactions are analyzed, focusing on the effects attributable to the direct gamma N ->pi pi N mechanism, the interplay between the resonant and nonresonant amplitudes, and the coupled-channels effects. The model parameters that can be determined most effectively in the combined studies of both the single and double pion photoproduction data are identified for future studies.

ID DECONVOLUTION
AB We present the formalism for calculating the femtoscopic correlation function directly in spherical harmonics. The numerator and denominator are stored as a set of one-dimensional histograms representing the spherical harmonic decompositions of each. We present the formalism to calculate the correlation function from them directly, without going to any three-dimensional histogram. We discuss the practical implementation of the method and we provide an example of its use. We also discuss the stability of the method in the presence of angular holes in the underlying data (e.g., from experimental acceptance).

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

AB Excited states in Cs-142 and Cs-144, populated in the spontaneous fission of Cm-248 and Cf-252 and in thermal neutron-induced fission of U-235 and Am-242 were studied by means of gamma spectroscopy using the EUROGAM2 and Gammasphere multidetector Ge arrays and the LOHENGRIN fission-fragment separator, respectively. In Cs-142, a band and an isomer with a half-life of T-1/2=11(3) ns have been identified. Spins and parities have been proposed for excited levels in this nucleus. In Cs-144 excited levels have been observed. A T-1/2=1.1(1) mu s isomer was found with a gamma cascade, which probably feeds this isomer. There is also an indication of a nanosecond isomer in Cs-144. Quasiparticle-rotor model calculations done in this work allowed proton-neutron configurations to be proposed for levels in Cs-142 and Cs-144.

TI Partial wave analysis of the reaction gamma p -> p omega and the search
for nucleon resonances
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C
LA English
DT Article
ID POLARIZED PHOTONS; PHOTOPRODUCTION; OMEGA
AB An event-based partial wave analysis (PWA) of the reaction gamma p -> p omega has been performed on a high-statistics dataset obtained using the CLAS at Jefferson Lab for center-of-mass energies from threshold up to 2.4 GeV. This analysis benefits from access to the world's first high-precision spin-density matrix element measurements, available to the event-based PWA through the decay distribution of omega ->pi(+)pi(-)pi(0). The data confirm the dominance of the t-channel pi(0) exchange amplitude in the forward direction. The dominant resonance contributions are consistent with the previously identified states F(15)(1680) and D(13)(1700) near threshold, as well as the G(17)(2190) at higher energies. Suggestive evidence for the presence of a J(P)=5/2(+) state around 2 GeV, a "missing" state, has also been found. Evidence for other states is inconclusive.

ID POLARIZED PHOTONS; VECTOR-MESONS; PHOTOPRODUCTION; OMEGA
AB High-statistics differential cross sections and spin-density matrix elements for the reaction gamma p -> p omega have been measured using the CEBAF large acceptance spectrometer (CLAS) at Jefferson Lab for center-of-mass (c.m.) energies from threshold up to 2.84 GeV. Results are reported in 112 10-MeV wide c.m. energy bins, each subdivided into cos theta(omega)(c.m.) bins of width 0.1. These are the most precise and extensive omega photoproduction measurements to date. A number of prominent structures are clearly present in the data. Many of these have not previously been observed due to limited statistics in earlier measurements.

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

ID SILICON VERTEX DETECTOR; PROTON INTERACTIONS; COLLIDER
AB A measurement of the cross section for the inclusive production of isolated photons by the CDF experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron collider is presented. The measurement covers the pseudorapidity region |eta(gamma)|< 1.0 and the transverse energy range E-T(gamma)> 30 GeV and is based on 2.5 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity. The sample is almost a factor of 7 larger than those used for recent published results and extends the E-T(gamma) coverage by 100 GeV. The result agrees with next-to-leading order perturbative QCD calculations within uncertainties over the range 50 < E-T(gamma)< 400 GeV, though the energy spectrum in the data shows a steeper slope at lower E-T(gamma).

ID DEEP-INELASTIC SCATTERING; QCD
AB We determine the strong coupling constant alpha(s) and its energy dependence from the p(T) dependence of the inclusive jet cross section in pp collisions at s=1.96 TeV. The strong coupling constant is determined over the transverse momentum range 50 < p(T)< 145 GeV. Using perturbative QCD calculations to order O(alpha(3)(s)) combined with O(alpha(4)(s)) contributions from threshold corrections, we obtain alpha(s)(M-Z)=0.1161(-0.0048)(+0.0041). This is the most precise result obtained at a hadron-hadron collider.

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

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

TI Dark energy properties in DBI theory
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D
LA English
DT Article
AB The Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) action from string theory provides several new classes of dark energy behavior beyond quintessence due to its relativistic kinematics. We constrain parameters of natural potentials and brane tensions with cosmological observations as well as showing how to design these functions for a desired expansion history. We enlarge the attractor solutions, including new ways of obtaining cosmological constant behavior, to the case of generalized DBI theory with multiple branes. An interesting novel signature of DBI attractors is that the sound speed is driven to zero, unlike for quintessence where it is the speed of light.

AB It has been suggested that dark matter particles which scatter inelastically from detector target nuclei could explain the apparent incompatibility of the DAMA modulation signal (interpreted as evidence for particle dark matter) with the null results from CDMS-II and XENON10. Among the predictions of inelastically interacting dark matter are a suppression of low-energy events, and a population of nuclear recoil events at higher nuclear recoil equivalent energies. This is in stark contrast to the well-known expectation of a falling exponential spectrum for the case of elastic interactions. We present a new analysis of XENON10 dark matter search data extending to E(nr)=75 keV nuclear recoil equivalent energy. Our results exclude a significant region of previously allowed parameter space in the model of inelastically interacting dark matter. In particular, it is found that dark matter particle masses m(chi)greater than or similar to 150 GeV are disfavored.

AB We present updated measurements of the branching fractions for B-0 meson decays to eta K-0, eta eta, eta phi, eta omega, eta K-'(0), eta(')eta('), eta(')phi, and eta(')omega, and branching fractions and CP-violating charge asymmetries for B+ decays to eta pi(+), eta K+, eta(')pi(+), and eta K-'(+). The data represent the full data set of 467x10(6) BB pairs collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy e(+)e(-) collider at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory. Besides large signals for the four charged B decay modes and for B-0 ->eta K-'(0), we find evidence for three B-0 decay modes at greater than 3.0 sigma significance. We find B(B-0 ->eta K-0)=(1.15(-0.38)(+0.43)+/- 0.09)x10(-6), B(B-0 ->eta omega)=(0.94(-0.30)(+0.35)+/- 0.09)x10(-6), and B(B-0 ->eta(')omega)=(1.01(-0.38)(+0.46)+/- 0.09)x10(-6), where the first (second) uncertainty is statistical (systematic). For the B+->eta K+ decay mode, we measure the charge asymmetry A(ch)(B+->eta K+)=-0.36 +/- 0.11 +/- 0.03.

ID CP ASYMMETRIES; B-DECAYS; VIOLATION
AB We perform a time-dependent amplitude analysis of B-0 -> K-S(0)pi(+)pi(-) decays to extract the CP violation parameters of f(0)(980)K-S(0) and rho(0)(770)K-S(0) and the direct CP asymmetry of K*+(892)pi(-). The results are obtained from a data sample of (383 +/- 3)x10(6) BB decays, collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric-energy B factory at SLAC. We find two solutions, with an equivalent goodness-of-fit. Including systematic and Dalitz plot model uncertainties, the combined confidence interval for values of the CP parameter beta(eff) in B-0 decays to f(0)(980)K-S(0) is 18 degrees K*+(892)pi(-) and B-0 -> K*-(892)pi(+), excludes the interval -137 degrees l(+)nu(l)gamma

ID FACTORIZATION; HEAVY
AB We present a search for the radiative leptonic decay B+-> l(+)nu(l)gamma, where l=e, mu, using a data sample of 465x10(6) BB pairs collected by the BABAR experiment. In this analysis, we fully reconstruct the hadronic decay of one of the B mesons in Upsilon(4S)-> B+B- decays, then search for evidence of B+-> l(+)nu(l)gamma in the rest of the event. We observe no significant evidence of signal decays and report model-independent branching fraction upper limits of B(B+-> e(+)nu(e)gamma)< 17x10(-6), B(B+->mu(+)nu(mu)gamma)< 24x10(-6), and B(B+-> l(+)nu(l)gamma)< 15.6x10(-6) (l=e or mu), all at the 90% confidence level.

TI Slowly varying dilaton cosmologies and their field theory duals
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D

DT Article
ID ADS/CFT CORRESPONDENCE; RENORMALIZATION; ENERGY; TENSOR; LIMIT
AB We consider a deformation of the AdS(5)xS(5) solution of IIB supergravity obtained by taking the boundary value of the dilaton to be time dependent. The time dependence is taken to be slowly varying on the anti-de Sitter (AdS) scale thereby introducing a small parameter epsilon. The boundary dilaton has a profile which asymptotes to a constant in the far past and future and attains a minimum value at intermediate times. We construct the supergravity (sugra) solution to first nontrivial order in epsilon, and find that it is smooth, horizon-free, and asymptotically AdS(5)xS(5) in the far future. When the intermediate values of the dilaton becomes small enough the curvature becomes of order the string scale and the sugra approximation breaks down. The resulting dynamics is analyzed in the dual SU(N) gauge theory on S(3) with a time dependent coupling constant which varies slowly. When N epsilon < 1, we find that a quantum adiabatic approximation is applicable, and use it to argue that at late times the geometry becomes smooth AdS(5)xS(5) again. When N epsilon 1, we formulate a classical adiabatic perturbation theory based on coherent states which arises in the large N limit. For large values of the 't Hooft coupling this reproduces the supergravity results. For small 't Hooft coupling the coherent state calculations become involved and we cannot reach a definite conclusion. We argue that the final state should have a dual description which is mostly smooth AdS(5) space with the possible presence of a small black hole.

TI MINOS and CPT-violating neutrinos
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D
LA English
DT Article
ID OSCILLATIONS; SEARCH; LSND; REACTOR; PHYSICS; LIMITS
AB We review the status of CPT violation in the neutrino sector. Apart from LSND, current data favors three flavors of light stable neutrinos and antineutrinos, with both halves of the spectrum having one smaller mass splitting and one larger mass splitting. Oscillation data for the smaller splitting are consistent with CPT. For the larger splitting, current data favor an antineutrino mass-squared splitting that is an order of magnitude larger than the corresponding neutrino splitting, with the corresponding mixing angle less than maximal. This CPT-violating spectrum is driven by recent results from MINOS, but is consistent with other experiments if we ignore LSND. We describe an analysis technique which, together with MINOS running optimized for muon antineutrinos, should be able to conclusively confirm the CPT-violating spectrum proposed here, with as little as 3 times the current data set. If confirmed, the CPT-violating neutrino mass-squared difference would be an order of magnitude less than the current most-stringent upper bound on CPT violation for quarks and charged leptons.

AB We prove that the light-cone time cutoff on the multiverse defines the same probabilities as a causal patch with initial conditions in the longest-lived metastable vacuum. This establishes the equivalence of two measures of eternal inflation which naively appear very different (though both are motivated by holography). The duality can be traced to an underlying geometric relation which we identify.

AB Branching fractions and CP-violating asymmetries of charmless B-s -> PP, VP, VV decays (P and V denoting pseudoscalar and vector mesons, respectively) are reexamined in the framework of QCD factorization (QCDF). We take into account subleading power corrections to the penguin annihilation topology and to color-suppressed tree amplitudes that are crucial for resolving the CP puzzles and rate deficit problems with penguin-dominated two-body decays and color-suppressed tree-dominated pi(0)pi(0) and rho(0)pi(0) modes in the B-u,B-d sector. Many of the B-s -> h(1)h(2) decays can be related to B-d -> h(1)h(2) ones via U-spin or SU(3) symmetry. Some useful model-independent relations can be derived and tested. Mixing-induced CP asymmetries for many of the penguin-dominated decays are predicted to be very small in the standard model. They are sensitive to new physics and offer rich possibilities of new discoveries. Measurements of direct CP-violating asymmetries can be used to discriminate QCDF from other competing approaches such as pQCD and soft-collinear effective theory.

HEAVY-QUARK; SUM-RULE; PUZZLE; PHYSICS; POLARIZATION; VIOLATION
AB Within the framework of QCD factorization, we consider two different types of power correction effects in order to resolve the CP puzzles and rate deficit problems with penguin-dominated two-body decays of B mesons and color-suppressed tree-dominated pi(0)pi(0) and rho(0)pi(0) modes: penguin annihilation and soft corrections to the color-suppressed tree amplitude. We emphasize that the electroweak penguin solution to the B -> K pi CP puzzle via new physics is irrelevant for solving the CP and rate puzzles related to tree-dominated decays. While some channels, e.g. K-pi(+), K-rho(0), pi(+)pi(-), rho(+/-)pi(-/+) need penguin annihilation to induce the correct magnitudes and signs for their CP violation, some other decays such as B--> K-pi(0), pi(-)eta, K-eta and B-0 -> K-*0 eta, pi(0)pi(0) require the presence of both power corrections to account for the measured CP asymmetries. In general, QCD factorization predictions for the branching fractions and direct CP asymmetries of B -> PP, VP, VV decays are in good agreement with experiment. The predictions of perturbaive QCD and soft-collinear effective theory are included for comparison.

AB Results from the PAMELA experiment indicate the presence of an excess of cosmic ray positrons above 10 GeV. In this paper, we consider the possibility that this signal is the result of dark matter annihilations taking place in the halo of the Milky Way. Rather than focusing on a specific particle physics model, we take a phenomenological approach and consider a variety of masses and two-body annihilation modes, including W(+)W(-), Z(0)Z(0), bb, tau(+)tau(-), mu(+)mu(-), and e(+)e(-). We also consider a range of diffusion parameters consistent with current cosmic ray data. We find that the significant upturn in the positron fraction above 10 GeV can be explained by dark matter annihilation to leptons, although very large annihilation cross sections and/or boost factors arising from inhomogeneities in the local dark matter distribution are required to produce the observed intensity of the signal. We comment on explanations for the large annihilation rate needed to explain the data and additionally on constraints from gamma rays, synchrotron emission, and cosmic ray antiproton measurements.

We use these couplings to study the photoproduction of f(1) mesons. The Chern-Simons-term-induced interaction leads to a simple relation between the polarization of the incoming photon and the final state f(1) meson which should allow a clear separation of this interaction from competing processes.

AB Exclusive J/Psi electroproduction is studied in the framework of the analytic S-matrix theory. The differential and integrated elastic cross sections are calculated using the modified dual amplitude with Mandelstam analyticity model. The model is applied to the description of the available experimental data and proves to be valid in a wide region of the kinematical variables s, t, and Q(2). Our amplitude can be used also as a universal background parametrization for the extraction of tiny resonance signals.

TI Possible quantum numbers of the pentaquark Theta(+)(1540) in QCD sum
rules
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW D

ID RESONANCE PHYSICS; BARYON; EXPLANATION; PREDICTION; DECUPLET; STATES
AB The QCD sum rule technique is employed to investigate pentaquark states with strangeness S=+1 and IJ(pi)=0(1/2 +/-), 1(1/2 +/-), 0(3/2 +/-), 1(3/2 +/-). Throughout the calculation, emphasis is laid on the establishment of a valid Borel window, which corresponds to a region of the Borel mass, where the operator product expansion converges and the presumed ground state pole dominates the sum rules. Such a Borel window is achieved by constructing the sum rules from the difference of two independent correlators and by calculating the operator product expansion up to dimension 14. Furthermore, we discuss the possibility of the contamination of the sum rules by possible KN scattering states. As a result, we conclude that the 0(3/2+) state seems to be the most probable candidate for the experimentally observed Theta(+)(1540), while we also obtain states with 0(1/2-), 1(1/2-), 1(3/2+) at somewhat higher mass regions.

AB The possibility of direct detection of light fermionic dark matter in neutrino detectors is explored from a model-independent standpoint. We consider all operators of dimension six or lower which can contribute to the interaction fp -> e(+)n, where f is a dark Majorana or Dirac fermion. Constraints on these operators are then obtained from the f lifetime and its decays which produce visible gamma rays or electrons. We find one operator which would allow fp -> e(+)n at interesting rates in neutrino detectors, as long as m(f)less than or similar to m(pi). The existing constraints on light dark matter from relic density arguments, supernova cooling rates, and big-bang nucleosynthesis are then reviewed. We calculate the cross section for fp -> e(+)n in neutrino detectors implied by this operator, and find that Super-Kamiokande can probe the new physics scale Lambda for this interaction up to O(100 TeV).

AB We investigate a f(R) modification of gravity that is exponential in the Ricci scalar R to explain cosmic acceleration. The steepness of this dependence provides extra freedom to satisfy solar system and other curvature regime constraints. With a parameter to alleviate the usual fine-tuning of having the modification strengthen near the present, the total number of parameters is only one more than Lambda CDM. The resulting class of solutions asymptotes to w=-1 but has no cosmological constant. We calculate the dynamics in detail, examine the effect on the matter power spectrum, and provide a simple fitting form relating the two.

AB We use a variant of principal component analysis to investigate the possible temporal evolution of the dark energy equation of state, w(z). We constrain w(z) in multiple redshift bins, utilizing the most recent data from type Ia supernovae, the cosmic microwave background, baryon acoustic oscillations, the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect, galaxy clustering, and weak lensing data. Unlike other recent analyses, we find no significant evidence for evolving dark energy; the data remain completely consistent with a cosmological constant. We also study the extent to which the time evolution of the equation of state would be constrained by a combination of current- and future-generation surveys, such as Planck and the Joint Dark Energy Mission.

AB We study large-distance contributions to the nucleon's parton densities in the transverse coordinate (impact parameter) representation based on generalized parton distributions (GPDs). Chiral dynamics generates a distinct component of the partonic structure, located at momentum fractions x less than or similar to M-pi/M-N and transverse distances b similar to 1/M-pi. We calculate this component using phenomenological pion exchange with a physical lower limit in b (the transverse "core" radius estimated from the nucleon's axial form factor, R-core=0.55 fm) and demonstrate its universal character. This formulation preserves the basic picture of the "pion cloud" model of the nucleon's sea quark distributions, while restricting its application to the region actually governed by chiral dynamics. It is found that (a) the large-distance component accounts for only similar to 1/3 of the measured antiquark flavor asymmetry d-u at x similar to 0.1; (b) the strange sea quarks s and s are significantly more localized than the light antiquark sea; (c) the nucleon's singlet quark size for x < 0.1 is larger than its gluonic size, << b(2)>>(q+q)><< b(2)>>(g), as suggested by the t-slopes of deeply-virtual Compton scattering and exclusive J/Sigma production measured at HERA and FNAL. We show that our approach reproduces the general N-c-scaling of parton densities in QCD, thanks to the degeneracy of N and Delta intermediate states in the large-N-c limit. We also comment on the role of pionic configurations at large longitudinal distances and the limits of their applicability at small x.

AB Many proposals have been put forward to explore four-quark states QQqq (Q=s, c, b; q=u, d) by experiment, so a systematic study of QQqq spectrum with different constituent quark models by a high precision, few-body method, the Gaussian expression method, is useful. Three quark models: the Bhaduri, Cohler, Nogami quark model, the chiral quark model (ChQM), and the quark delocalization color screening model are all employed for a systematic calculation of the S-wave QQqq spectrum with different color structures, using the Gaussian expression method. The results show that only the bbqq state with (I,J)=(0,1) is bound in different color structures within the different quark models. The binding energy varies from several MeV for a di-meson structure to over 100 MeV for a diquark-antidiquark structure. For the ccqq system, the state with (I,J)=(0,1) is bound in a di-meson structure, and also bound in a diquark-antidiquark structure if pseudoscalar meson exchanges are accounted for. All are weakly bound states. The mixture of diquark-antidiquark and molecular structures is discussed in the framework of quark models for the first time; ccqq with (I,J)=(0,1) is below the threshold in addition to bbqq in both the ChQM and the Bhaduri, Cohler, Nogami quark model. In the same channel, ssqq is also a possible bound state with mass around 1.4 GeV in ChQM.

AB We study the impact of strain localization on the stability of frictional slipping in dense amorphous materials. We model the material using shear transformation zone (STZ) theory, a continuum approximation for plastic deformation in amorphous solids. In the STZ model, the internal state is quantified by an effective disorder temperature, and the effective temperature dynamics capture the spontaneous localization of strain. We study the effect of strain localization on stick-slip instabilities by coupling the STZ model to a noninertial spring slider system. We perform a linear stability analysis to generate a phase diagram that connects the small scale physics of strain localization to the macroscopic stability of sliding. Our calculations determine the values of spring stiffness and driving velocity where steady sliding becomes unstable and we confirm our results through numerical integration. We investigate both homogeneous deformation, where no shear band forms, and localized deformation, where a narrow shear band spontaneously forms and accommodates all of the deformation. Our results show that at a given velocity, strain localization leads to unstable frictional sliding at a much larger spring stiffness compared to homogeneous deformation, and that localized deformation cannot be approximated by a homogeneous model with a narrower material. We also find that strain localization provides a physical mechanism for irregular stick-slip cycles in certain parameter ranges. Our results quantitatively connect the internal physics of deformation in amorphous materials to the larger scale frictional dynamics of stick-slip.
