AB Not all tangent space directions play equivalent roles in the local chaotic motions of classical Hamiltonian many-body systems. These directions are numerically represented by basis sets of mutually orthogonal Gram-Schmidt vectors, whose statistical properties may depend on the chosen phase space-time domain of a trajectory. We examine the degree of stability and localization of Gram-Schmidt vector sets simulated with trajectories of a model three-atom Lennard-Jones cluster. Distributions of finite-time Lyapunov exponent and inverse participation ratio spectra formed from short-time histories reveal that ergodicity begins to emerge on different time scales for trajectories spanning different phase-space regions, in a narrow range of total energy and history length. Over a range of history lengths, the most localized directions were typically the most unstable and corresponded to atomic configurations near potential landscape saddles.

AB We have studied the dynamics of warm dense Li with near-elastic x-ray scattering. Li foils were heated and compressed using shock waves driven by 4-ns-long laser pulses. Separate 1-ns-long laser pulses were used to generate a bright source of 2.96 keV Cl Ly-alpha photons for x-ray scattering, and the spectrum of scattered photons was recorded at a scattering angle of 120 degrees using a highly oriented pyrolytic graphite crystal operated in the von Hamos geometry. A variable delay between the heater and backlighter laser beams measured the scattering time evolution. Comparison with radiation-hydrodynamics simulations shows that the plasma is highly coupled during the first several nanoseconds, then relaxes to a moderate coupling state at later times. Near-elastic scattering amplitudes have been successfully simulated using the screened one-component plasma model. Our main finding is that the near-elastic scattering amplitudes are quite sensitive to the mean ionization state Z and by extension to the choice of ionization model in the radiation-hydrodynamics simulations used to predict plasma properties within the shocked Li.

ID TURBULENCE; RANGE
AB Particles floating on the surface of a turbulent incompressible fluid accumulate along string-like structures, while leaving large regions of the flow domain empty. This is reflected experimentally by a very peaked probability distribution function of c(r), the coarse-grained particle concentration at scale r, around c(r)=0, with a power-law decay over two decades of c(r), Pi(c(r))proportional to c(r)(r)(-beta). The positive exponent beta(r) decreases with scale in the inertial range and stays approximately constant in the dissipative range, thus, indicating a qualitative difference between the dissipative and the inertial ranges of scales, also visible in the first moment of c(r).

AB We show that spiral vortices in oscillatory systems can lose stability to secondary modes to form dual-mode spiral vortices. The secondary modes grow at the vortex core where the oscillation amplitude vanishes but are nonlinearly damped by the oscillatory mode away from the core. Gradients of the oscillation phase, induced by the hosted secondary mode, can lead to additional hosting events that culminate in periodic core oscillations or in a novel form of spatiotemporal chaos. The results of this study apply to physical, chemical, and biological systems that go through cusp-Hopf, fold-Hopf, and Hopf-Turing bifurcations.

AB We present an efficient method for Monte Carlo simulations of diffusion-reaction processes. Introduced by us in a previous paper [Phys. Rev. Lett. 97, 230602 (2006)], our algorithm skips the traditional small diffusion hops and propagates the diffusing particles over long distances through a sequence of superhops, one particle at a time. By partitioning the simulation space into nonoverlapping protecting domains each containing only one or two particles, the algorithm factorizes the N-body problem of collisions among multiple Brownian particles into a set of much simpler single-body and two-body problems. Efficient propagation of particles inside their protective domains is enabled through the use of time-dependent Green's functions (propagators) obtained as solutions for the first-passage statistics of random walks. The resulting Monte Carlo algorithm is event-driven and asynchronous; each Brownian particle propagates inside its own protective domain and on its own time clock. The algorithm reproduces the statistics of the underlying Monte Carlo model exactly. Extensive numerical examples demonstrate that for an important class of diffusion-reaction models the algorithm is efficient at low particle densities, where other existing algorithms slow down severely.

ID DIFFUSION MAPS
AB A given set of data points in some feature space may be associated with a Schroumldinger equation whose potential is determined by the data. This is known to lead to good clustering solutions. Here we extend this approach into a full-fledged dynamical scheme using a time-dependent Schroumldinger equation. Moreover, we approximate this Hamiltonian formalism by a truncated calculation within a set of Gaussian wave functions (coherent states) centered around the original points. This allows for analytic evaluation of the time evolution of all such states opening up the possibility of exploration of relationships among data points through observation of varying dynamical distances among points and convergence of points into clusters. This formalism may be further supplemented by preprocessing such as dimensional reduction through singular-value decomposition or feature filtering.

AB The spatial distribution of structural relaxation in a supercooled liquid is studied using molecular dynamics simulations of a two-dimensional binary mixture. It is shown that the spatial heterogeneity of the relaxation along with the time scale of the relaxation is determined, not by the frequency with which particles move a distance pi/2k(Bragg), but by the frequency with which particles can achieve persistent displacements. We show that these persistent displacements are achieved through the coupled action of local reorganizations and unrecoverable thermal strains.

AB Transverse coherent oscillations of a bunched beam in a ring accelerator are considered with space charge dominated impedance, taking into account linear synchrotron oscillations. A general equation of the bunch eigenmodes is derived, its exact analytical solution is presented for boxcar bunch, and numerical solutions are found for several realistic models. Both low and high synchrotron frequency approximations are considered and compared, fields of their applicability are determined, and some estimations are developed in the intermediate region. It is shown that most of the bunch eigenmodes are stabilized by Landau damping due to the space charge produced tune spread.

AB Trapping by resonances or scattering off resonances induced by space charge (SC) or electron cloud (EC) in conjunction with synchrotron motion can explain observations of slow beam loss and emittance growth, which are often accompanied by changes in the longitudinal beam profile. In this paper we review the recent progress in understanding and modeling of the underlying mechanisms, highlight the differences and similarities between space charge and electron cloud, and discuss simulation results in the light of experimental observations, e. g., at GSI, CERN, and BNL. In particular, we address the role of the pinched electrons and describe in detail the complexity of the electron pinch formation. We present simulation results within a dipole or in a field-free region of the beam pipe, which reveal the morphology and main features of this phenomenon, explain the physical origin of the complex electron structures like stripe in either field configuration, and discuss the dependence on some key parameters.

AB Wakefield excitation has been experimentally studied in a three-cell X-band standing wave photonic band gap (PBG) accelerating structure. Major monopole (TM(01)- and TM(02)-like) and dipole (TM(11)- and TM(12)-like) modes were identified and characterized by precisely controlling the position of beam injection. The quality factor Q of the dipole modes was measured to be similar to 10 times smaller than that of the accelerating mode. A charge sweep, up to 80 nC, has been performed, equivalent to similar to 30 MV/m accelerating field on axis. A variable delay low charge witness bunch following a high charge drive bunch was used to calibrate the gradient in the PBG structure by measuring its maximum energy gain and loss. Experimental results agree well with numerical simulations.

AB MAX IV will be Sweden's next-generation high-performance synchrotron radiation source. The project has recently been granted funding and construction is scheduled to begin in 2010. User operation for a broad and international user community should commence in 2015. The facility is comprised of two storage rings optimized for different wavelength ranges, a linac-based short-pulse facility and a free-electron laser for the production of coherent radiation. The main radiation source of MAX IV will be a 528 m ultralow emittance storage ring operated at 3 GeV for the generation of high-brightness hard x rays. This storage ring was designed to meet the requirements of state-of-the-art insertion devices which will be installed in nineteen 5 m long dispersion-free straight sections. The storage ring is based on a novel multibend achromat design delivering an unprecedented horizontal bare lattice emittance of 0.33 nm rad and a vertical emittance below the 8 pm rad diffraction limit for 1 angstrom radiation. In this paper we present the beam dynamics considerations behind this storage-ring design and detail its expected unique performance.

ID EMITTANCE GROWTH; ELECTRON-BEAM
AB We report on an experimental study of space-charge effects in a radio-frequency (rf) photoinjector. A 5 MeV electron bunch, consisting of a number of beamlets separated transversely, was generated in an rf photocathode gun and propagated in the succeeding drift space. The collective interaction of these beamlets was studied for different experimental conditions. The experiment allowed the exploration of space-charge effects and its comparison with 3D particle-in-cell simulations. Our observations also suggest the possible use of a multibeam configuration to tailor the transverse distribution of an electron beam.

TI 55-TW magnetically insulated transmission-line system: Design,
simulations, and performance
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW SPECIAL TOPICS-ACCELERATORS AND BEAMS

ID CATHODE PLASMA FORMATION; POST-HOLE CONVOLUTE; ELECTRON FLOW; Z-PINCHES;
DIODES; PROPAGATION; ACCELERATOR
AB We describe herein a system of self-magnetically insulated vacuum transmission lines (MITLs) that operated successfully at 20 MA, 3 MV, and 55 TW. The system delivered the electromagnetic-power pulse generated by the Z accelerator to a physics-package load on over 1700 Z shots. The system included four levels that were electrically in parallel. Each level consisted of a water flare, vacuum-insulator stack, vacuum flare, and 1.3-m-radius conical outer MITL. The outputs of the four outer MITLs were connected in parallel by a 7.6-cm-radius 12-post double-post-hole vacuum convolute. The convolute added the currents of the four outer MITLs, and delivered the combined current to a single 6-cm-long inner MITL. The inner MITL delivered the current to the load. The total initial inductance of the stack-MITL system was 11 nH. A 300-element transmission-line-circuit model of the system has been developed using the TL code. The model accounts for the following: (i) impedance and electrical length of each of the 300 circuit elements, (ii) electron emission from MITL-cathode surfaces wherever the electric field has previously exceeded a constant threshold value, (iii) Child-Langmuir electron loss in the MITLs before magnetic insulation is established, (iv) MITL-flow-electron loss after insulation, assuming either collisionless or collisional electron flow, (v) MITL-gap closure, (vi) energy loss to MITL conductors operated at high lineal current densities, (vii) time-dependent self-consistent inductance of an imploding z-pinch load, and (viii) load resistance, which is assumed to be constant. Simulations performed with the TL model demonstrate that the nominal geometric outer-MITL-system impedance that optimizes overall performance is a factor of similar to 3 greater than the convolute-load impedance, which is consistent with an analytic model of an idealized MITL-load system. Power-flow measurements demonstrate that, until peak current, the Z stack-MITL system performed as expected. TL calculations of the peak electromagnetic power at the stack, stack energy, stack voltage, outer-MITL current, and load current, as well as the pinch-implosion time, agree with measurements to within 5%. After peak current, TL calculations and measurements diverge, which appears to be due in part to the idealized pinch model assumed by TL. The results presented suggest that the design of the Z accelerator's stack-MITL system, and the TL model, can serve as starting points for the design of stack-MITL systems of future superpower accelerators.

AB Samples of quartz-bearing rocks were heated above the alpha (trigonal)-beta (hexagonal) phase transformation of quartz (625-950A degrees C) to explore changes in preferred orientation patterns. Textures were measured both in situ and ex situ with neutron, synchrotron X-ray and electron backscatter diffraction. The trigonal-hexagonal phase transformation does not change the orientation of c- and a-axes, but positive and negative rhombs become equal in the hexagonal beta-phase. In naturally deformed quartzites measured by neutron diffraction a perfect texture memory was observed, i.e. crystals returned to the same trigonal orientation they started from, with no evidence of twin boundaries. Samples measured by electron back-scattered diffraction on surfaces show considerable twinning and memory loss after the phase transformation. In experimentally deformed quartz rocks, where twinning was induced mechanically before heating, the orientation memory is lost. A mechanical model can explain the memory loss but so far it does not account for the persistence of the memory in quartzites. Stresses imposed by neighboring grains remain a likely cause of texture memory in this mineral with a very high elastic anisotropy. If stresses are imposed experimentally the internal stresses are released during the phase transformation and the material returns to its original state prior to deformation. Similarly, on surfaces there are no tractions and thus texture memory is partially lost.

AB This paper describes a new positron source using ultraintense short pulse lasers. Although it has been theoretically studied since the 1970s, the use of lasers as a valuable new positron source was not demonstrated experimentally until recent years, when the petawatt-class short pulse lasers were developed. In 2008 and 2009, in a series of experiments performed at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, a large number of positrons were observed after shooting a millimeter thick solid gold target. Up to 2x10(10) positrons/s ejected at the back of approximately millimeter thick gold targets were detected. The targets were illuminated with short (similar to 1 ps) ultraintense (similar to 1x10(20) W/cm(2)) laser pulses. These positrons are produced predominantly by the Bethe-Heitler process and have an effective temperature of 2-4 MeV, with the distribution peaking at 4-7 MeV. The angular distribution of the positrons is anisotropic. For a wide range of applications, this new laser-based positron source with its unique characteristics may complement the existing sources based on radioactive isotopes and accelerators.

AB The formation of a quasiequilibrium beam distribution matched to an alternating-gradient quadrupole focusing lattice by means of the adiabatic turn-on of the oscillating focusing field is studied numerically using particle-in-cell simulations. Quiescent beam propagation over several hundred lattice periods is demonstrated for a broad range of beam intensities and vacuum phase advances describing the strength of the oscillating focusing field. Properties of the matched-beam distribution are investigated. In particular, self-similar evolution of the beam density profile is observed over a wide range of system parameters. The numerical simulations are performed using the WARP particle-in-cell code.

AB Experiments on the National Spherical Torus Experiment [M. Ono , Nucl. Fusion 40, 557 (2000)] found strong bursts of toroidal Alfveacuten eigenmode (TAE) activity correlated with abrupt drops in the neutron rate. A fairly complete data set offers the opportunity to benchmark the NOVA [C. Z. Cheng, Phys. Rep. 211, 1 (1992)] and ORBIT [R. B. White and M. S. Chance, Phys. Fluids 27, 2455 (1984)] codes in the low aspect ratio tokamak (ST) geometry. The internal structure of TAE was modeled with NOVA and good agreement is found with measurements made with an array of five fixed-frequency reflectometers. The fast-ion transport resulting from these bursts of multiple TAE was then modeled with the ORBIT code. The simulations are reasonably consistent with the observed drop in neutron rate, however, further refinements in both the simulation of the TAE structure and in the modeling of the fast-ion transport are needed. Benchmarking stability codes against present experiments is an important step in developing the predictive capability needed to plan future experiments.

TI Laser-accelerated proton conversion efficiency thickness scaling
SO PHYSICS OF PLASMAS

DE foils; gold; plasma-beam interactions
ID FAST IGNITION; PLASMA; DRIVEN; SOLIDS; BEAMS
AB The conversion efficiency from laser energy into proton kinetic energy is measured with the 0.6 ps, 9x10(19) W/cm(2) Titan laser at the Jupiter Laser Facility as a function of target thickness in Au foils. For targets thicker than 20 mu m, the conversion efficiency scales approximately as 1/L, where L is the target thickness. This is explained by the domination of hot electron collisional losses over adiabatic cooling. In thinner targets, the two effects become comparable, causing the conversion efficiency to scale weaker than 1/L; the measured conversion efficiency is constant within the scatter in the data for targets between 5 and 15 mu m, with a peak conversion efficiency of 4% into protons with energy greater than 3 MeV. Depletion of the hydrocarbon contaminant layer is eliminated as an explanation for this plateau by using targets coated with 200 nm of ErH(3) on the rear surface. The proton acceleration is modeled with the hybrid-particle in cell code LSP, which reproduced the conversion efficiency scaling observed in the data.

AB We show in this response that the nonlinear Poisson's equation in our original paper derived from the drift kinetic approach can be verified by using the nonlinear gyrokinetic Poisson's equation of Dubin [Phys. Fluids 26, 3524 (1983)]. This nonlinear contribution in phi(2) is indeed of the order of k(perpendicular to)(4) in the long wavelength limit and remains finite for zero ion temperature, in contrast with the nonlinear term by Parra and Catto [Plasma Phys. Controlled Fusion 50, 065014 (2008)], which is of the order of k(perpendicular to)(2) and diverges for T(i)-> 0. For comparison, the leading term for the gyrokinetic Poisson's equation in this limit is of the order of k(perpendicular to)(2)phi.

AB Progress on developing a plasma amplifier/compressor based on stimulated Raman scattering of nanosecond laser pulses is reported. Generation of a millijoule seed pulse at a wavelength that is redshifted relative to the pump beam has been achieved using an external Raman gas cell. By interacting the shifted picosecond seed pulse and the nanosecond pump pulse in a gas jet plasma at a density of similar to 10(19) cm(-3), the upper limit of the pump intensity to avoid angular spray of the amplified seed has been determined. The Raman amplification has been studied as a function of the pump and seed intensities. Although the heating of plasma by the nanosecond pump pulse results in strong Landau damping of the plasma wave, an amplified pulse with an energy of up to 14 mJ has been demonstrated, which is, to the best of our knowledge, the highest output energy so far by Raman amplification in a plasma. One-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations indicate that the saturation of amplification is consistent with onset of particle trapping, which might be overcome by employing a shorter seed pulse.

AB Fully electromagnetic particle in cell simulations of nonlinear waves propagation and interaction are performed in two-dimensional plane geometry in magnetized plasma in ion cyclotron frequency range. A spectrum of fast magnetosonic wave modes with wave numbers parallel and perpendicular to the uniform equilibrium magnetic field is launched into plasma and the nonlinear dynamics of these waves is analyzed. Results show that the wave magnetic energy spectrum cascades to smaller scales. In the low frequency in the magnetohydrodynamic regime, the cascade is basically isotropic. Once entering the high frequency kinetic regime the cascade exhibits strong anisotropy, it extends to much smaller scales in direction perpendicular to the equilibrium magnetic field. The shape of the cascade is established after a few ion cyclotron periods and most of the energy in the cascade stays in the fast wave oscillations. Collisionless damping on electrons is the main dissipation channel in these results.

AB Results are reported of a one-dimensional simulation study comparing the modeling capability of a recently formulated extended three-wave model [R. R. Lindberg, A. E. Charman, and J. S. Wurtele, Phys. Plasmas 14, 122103 (2007); Phys. Plasmas 15, 055911 (2008)] to that of a particle-in-cell (PIC) code, as well as to a more conventional three-wave model, in the context of the plasma-based backward Raman amplification (PBRA) [G. Shvets, N. J. Fisch, A. Pukhov , Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 4879 (1998); V. M. Malkin, G. Shvets, and N. J. Fisch, Phys. Rev. Lett. 82, 4448 (1999); Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 1208 (2000)]. The extended three-wave model performs essentially as well as or better than a conventional three-wave description in all temperature regimes tested, and significantly better at the higher temperatures studied, while the computational savings afforded by the extended three-wave model make it a potentially attractive tool that can be used prior to or in conjunction with PIC simulations to model the kinetic effects of PBRA for nonrelativistic laser pulses interacting with underdense thermal plasmas. Very fast but reasonably accurate at moderate plasma temperatures, this model may be used to perform wide-ranging parameter scans or other exploratory analyses quickly and efficiently, in order to guide subsequent simulation via more accurate if intensive PIC techniques or other algorithms approximating the full Vlasov-Maxwell equations.

AB New numerical techniques for simulating the formation and evolution of cathode and anode plasmas have been successfully implemented in a hybrid code. The dynamics of expanding electrode plasmas has long been recognized as a limiting factor in the impedance lifetimes of high-power vacuum diodes and magnetically insulated transmission lines. Realistic modeling of such plasmas is being pursued to aid in understanding the operating characteristics of these devices as well as establishing scaling relations for reliable extrapolation to higher voltages. Here, in addition to kinetic and fluid modeling, a hybrid particle-in-cell technique is described that models high density, thermal plasmas as an inertial fluid which transitions to kinetic electron or ion macroparticles above a prescribed energy. The hybrid technique is computationally efficient and does not require resolution of the Debye length. These techniques are first tested on a simple planar diode then applied to the evolution of both cathode and anode plasmas in a high-power self-magnetic pinch diode. The impact of an intense electron flux on the anode surface leads to rapid heating of contaminant material and diode impedance loss.

AB We present a bulk ion flow map from the nightside, equatorial region of Saturn's magnetosphere derived from the Cassini CAPS ion mass spectrometer data. The map clearly demonstrates the dominance of corotation flow over radial flow and suggests that the flux tubes sampled are still closed and attached to the planet up to distances of 50R(S). The plasma characteristics in the near-midnight region are described and indicate a transition between the region of the magnetosphere containing plasma on closed drift paths and that containing flux tubes which may not complete a full rotation around the planet. Data from the electron spectrometer reveal two plasma states of high and low density. These are attributed either to the sampling of mass-loaded and depleted flux tubes, respectively, or to the latitudinal structure of the plasma sheet. Depleted, returning flux tubes are not, in general, directly observed in the ions, although the electron observations suggest that such a process must take place in order to produce the low-density population.
Flux-tube content is conserved below a limit defined by the mass-loading and magnetic field strength and indicates that the flux tubes sampled may survive their passage through the tail. The conditions for mass-release are evaluated using measured densities, angular velocities and magnetic held strength. The results suggest that for the relatively dense ion populations detectable by the ion mass spectrometer (IMS), the condition for flux-tube breakage has not yet been exceeded. However, the low-density regimes observed in the electron data suggest that loaded flux tubes at greater distances do exceed the threshold for mass-loss and subsequently return to the inner magnetosphere significantly depleted of plasma.

AB Crossings of Saturn's magnetopause made by the Cassini spacecraft on 12, 13 and 17 March 2006 are analysed. During this period Cassini's trajectory was approximately parallel to the magnetopause boundary given by a model of the surface. Magnetic field and electron data are used to identify excursions into the magnetosheath bounded by crossings of the magnetopause current layer. Minimum variance analysis of the magnetic field vector measurements is used to determine the normal to the boundary for each crossing. The normals corresponding to the crossings oscillate about an average orientation that is consistent with the unperturbed normal predicted by the surface model. This reveals the presence of regular boundary waves with a direction of propagation found to be within 24 degrees of Saturn's rotational equator. Two categories of boundary wave are identified: the first with a period of the order of hours, and the second with a period of 45+/-9 min. Based on the propagation direction and a comparison of magnetospheric and magnetosheath magnetic fields, we conclude that both types of wave were driven by the Kelvin-Helmholtz instability. The observed boundary perturbations are consistent with a superposition of different types of surface wave activity. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB In this paper Saturn's nightside and pre-dawn electron (0.5 eV-28 keV) plasma sheet is studied using Cassini plasma electron and magnetic field data from 2006. Case studies are presented which exemplify the typical and atypical states of the plasma sheet, and are complemented by a statistical study of the plasma sheet. It will be shown that Saturn's nightside and pre-dawn electron plasma sheet exists in two states: a quiescent state with a steady electron temperature of similar to 100 eV and where the electron distribution functions are best characterised by Kappa distributions, and a disturbed state where the electrons are hot (similar to 1 keV) and often seen in alternating layers between warm and hot populations. Evidence is also presented for bimodal cold/warm (both quiet and disturbed states) and warm/hot distributions (disturbed states). The disturbed states are qualitatively similar to electron distributions from Earth's magnetotail during intervals of reconnection and we argue that these disturbed states also result from periods of tail reconnection. We present statistics of electron number density, temperature, partial electron beta, and pressure, and show that large values of partial beta are necessary but not sufficient to uniquely identify the central plasma sheet. Finally the thermodynamic properties of the electron plasma sheet are studied and we show that the electrons behave isothermally. These results are important for modelling and theoretical analyses, and for use in studies which examine dynamics in Saturn's magnetosphere. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Populus serves as a model tree for biotechnology and molecular biology research due to the availability of the reference genome sequence of Populus trichocarpa (Torr. & Gray) genotype 'Nisqually-1'. However, 'Nisqually-1' has been shown to be very recalcitrant to micropropagation, regeneration and transformation. In this study, a highly efficient micropropagation protocol from greenhouse-grown shoot tips of 'Nisqually-1' was established. The optimal micropropagation protocol involves growing in vitro shoots in plant growth regulator-free Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with 3% sucrose, 0.3% Gelrite(A (R)) and 5-10 g L(-1) of activated charcoal. Plants grown on this medium were significantly longer, and contained significantly higher concentrations of chlorophyll. This highly effective protocol provides a consistent supply of quality leaf and stem materials throughout the year for transformation experiments and other in vitro manipulations, therefore eliminating inconsistency due to seasonal and greenhouse environmental variations and the need for repetitive tissue sterilization.

AB Generally, heading in Lolium perenne L. (perennial ryegrass) is associated with a reduction in the feed quality of the forage and therefore extending the period of vegetative growth during the growing season will contribute to an improvement in quality. The genetic control of floral transition has been well studied in model plant species but less research has been done in economically important crop species such as perennial ryegrass. A differential gene expression study was performed between two full sibling lines of L. perenne with contrasting flowering time. Suppression subtractive hybridization was used to identify 155 transcripts differentially expressed between the two sibling lines in the shoot apical meristem after primary and during secondary induction. Transcripts with a putative role in the floral transition were further characterized, through floral induction stages, by real time RT-PCR. This revealed five genes with greater than tenfold difference in expression between the lines during floral induction. Furthermore, a putative methyl binding domain protein and bHLH transcription factor were identified, which show clear differential expression patterns through floral induction and may act as potential enhancers of flowering in L. perenne.

TI FATTY ACID DESATURASE4 of Arabidopsis encodes a protein distinct from
characterized fatty acid desaturases

AB P>Polar membrane glycerolipids occur in a mixture of molecular species defined by a polar head group and characteristic acyl groups esterified to a glycerol backbone. A molecular species of phosphatidylglycerol specific to chloroplasts of plants carries a Delta 3-trans hexadecenoic acid in the sn-2 position of its core glyceryl moiety. The fad4-1 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana missing this particular phosphatidylglycerol molecular species lacks the necessary fatty acid desaturase, or a component thereof. The overwhelming majority of acyl groups associated with membrane lipids in plants contains double bonds with a cis configuration. However, FAD4 is unusual because it is involved in the formation of a trans double bond introduced close to the carboxyl group of palmitic acid, which is specifically esterified to the sn-2 glyceryl carbon of phosphatidylglycerol. As a first step towards the analysis of this unusual desaturase reaction, the FAD4 gene was identified by mapping of the FAD4 locus and coexpression analysis with known lipid genes. FAD4 encodes a predicted integral membrane protein that appears to be unrelated to classic membrane bound fatty acid desaturases based on overall sequence conservation. However, the FAD4 protein contains two histidine motifs resembling those of metalloproteins such as fatty acid desaturases. FAD4 is targeted to the plastid. Overexpression of the cDNA in transgenic Arabidopsis led to increased accumulation of the Delta 3-trans hexadecanoyl group in phosphatidylglycerol relative to wild type. Taken together these results are consistent with the hypothesis that FAD4 is the founding member of a novel class of fatty acid desaturases.

AB P>Cellulose synthase-like (CSL) proteins of glycosyltransferase family 2 (GT2) are believed to be involved in the biosynthesis of cell-wall polymers. The CSL D sub-family (CSLD) is common to all plants, but the functions of CSLDs remain to be elucidated. We report here an in-depth characterization of a narrow leaf and dwarf1 (nd1) rice mutant that shows significant reduction in plant growth due to retarded cell division. Map-based cloning revealed that ND1 encodes OsCSLD4, one of five members of the CSLD sub-family in rice. OsCSLD4 is mainly expressed in tissues undergoing rapid growth. Expression of OsCSLD4 fluorescently tagged at the C- or N-terminus in rice protoplast cells or Nicotiana benthamiana leaves showed that the protein is located in the endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi vesicles. Golgi localization was verified using phenotype-rescued transgenic plants expressing OsCSLD4-GUS under the control of its own promoter. Two phenotype-altered tissues, culms and root tips, were used to investigate the specific wall defects. Immunological studies and monosaccharide compositional and glycosyl linkage analyses explored several wall compositional effects caused by disruption of OsCSLD4, including alterations in the structure of arabinoxylan and the content of cellulose and homogalacturonan, which are distinct in the monocot grass species Oryza sativa (rice). The inconsistent alterations in the two tissues and the observable structural defects in primary walls indicate that OsCSLD4 plays important roles in cell-wall formation and plant growth.

AB Grass species represent a major source of food, feed, and fiber crops and potential feedstocks for biofuel production. Most of the biomass is contributed by cell walls that are distinct in composition from all other flowering plants. Identifying cell wall-related genes and their functions underpins a fundamental understanding of growth and development in these species. Toward this goal, we are building a knowledge base of the maize (Zea mays) genes involved in cell wall biology, their expression profiles, and the phenotypic consequences of mutation. Over 750 maize genes were annotated and assembled into gene families predicted to function in cell wall biogenesis. Comparative genomics of maize, rice (Oryza sativa), and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana) sequences reveal differences in gene family structure between grass species and a reference eudicot species. Analysis of transcript profile data for cell wall genes in developing maize ovaries revealed that expression within families differed by up to 100-fold. When transcriptional analyses of developing ovaries before pollination from Arabidopsis, rice, and maize were contrasted, distinct sets of cell wall genes were expressed in grasses. These differences in gene family structure and expression between Arabidopsis and the grasses underscore the requirement for a grass-specific genetic model for functional analyses. A UniformMu population proved to be an important resource in both forward-and reverse-genetics approaches to identify hundreds of mutants in cell wall genes. A forward screen of field-grown lines by near-infrared spectroscopic screen of mature leaves yielded several dozen lines with heritable spectroscopic phenotypes. Pyrolysis-molecular beam mass spectrometry confirmed that several nir mutants had altered carbohydrate-lignin compositions.

AB A cytoplasmically inherited chlorophyll-deficient mutant of barley (Hordeum vulgare) termed cytoplasmic line 3 (CL3), displaying a viridis (homogeneously light-green colored) phenotype, has been previously shown to be affected by elevated temperatures. In this article, biochemical, biophysical, and molecular approaches were used to study the CL3 mutant under different temperature and light conditions. The results lead to the conclusion that an impaired assembly of photosystem I (PSI) under higher temperatures and certain light conditions is the primary cause of the CL3 phenotype. Compromised splicing of ycf3 transcripts, particularly at elevated temperature, resulting from a mutation in a noncoding region (intron 1) in the mutant ycf3 gene results in a defective synthesis of Ycf3, which is a chaperone involved in PSI assembly. The defective PSI assembly causes severe photoinhibition and degradation of PSII.

ID NATIONAL IGNITION FACILITY; TARGETS
AB The generation of strong, self-generated electric fields (10(8)-10(9) V m(-1)) in direct-drive, inertial-confinement-fusion capsules has been reported (Li et al 2008 Phys. Rev. Lett. 100 225001). Various models are considered herein to explain the observed electric field evolution, including the potential roles of electron pressure gradients near the fuel-pusher interface and plasma polarization effects that are predicted to occur across shock fronts (Zel'dovich and Raizer 2002 Physics of Shock Waves and High-Temperature Hydrodynamic Phenomena (Mineola, NY: Dover) p 522). In the latter case, strong fields in excess of 10(10) V m(-1) and localized to 10-100 nm may be consistent with the data obtained from proton radiography. Such field strengths are similar in magnitude to the criterion for runaway electron generation that could lead to plasma kinetic effects and potential shock-front broadening. The observed electric field generation may also be partly due to plasma ionization gradients localized near the fuel-pusher interface. A model is proposed that allows for differing electron-and ion-density gradient scale lengths in the presence of ionization gradients while preserving overall charge neutrality. Such a redistribution of electrons compared with standard, charge-neutral, single-fluid radiation-hydrodynamics modelling may affect the interpretation of imploded-core x-ray diagnostics as well as alter alpha particle deposition in the thermonuclear fuel.

ID NSTX; LIMITER
AB Experiments in the National Spherical Torus Experiment ( NSTX) have shown beneficial effects on the performance of divertor plasmas as a result of applying lithium coatings on the graphite and carbon-fiber-composite plasma-facing components. These coatings have mostly been applied by a pair of lithium evaporators mounted at the top of the vacuum vessel which inject collimated streams of lithium vapor toward the lower divertor. In neutral beam injection (NBI)-heated deuterium H-mode plasmas run immediately after the application of lithium, performance modifications included decreases in the plasma density, particularly in the edge, and inductive flux consumption, and increases in the electron and ion temperatures and the energy confinement time. Reductions in the number and amplitude of edge-localized modes (ELMs) were observed, including complete ELM suppression for periods of up to 1.2 s, apparently as a result of altering the stability of the edge. However, in the plasmas where ELMs were suppressed, there was a significant secular increase in the effective ion charge Z(eff) and the radiated power as a result of increases in the carbon and medium-Z metallic impurities, although not of lithium itself which remained at a very low level in the plasma core, <0.1%. The impurity buildup could be inhibited by repetitively triggering ELMs with the application of brief pulses of an n = 3 radial field perturbation. The reduction in the edge density by lithium also inhibited parasitic losses through the scrape-off-layer of ICRF power coupled to the plasma, enabling the waves to heat electrons in the core of H-mode plasmas produced by NBI. Lithium has also been introduced by injecting a stream of chemically stabilized, fine lithium powder directly into the scrape-off-layer of NBI-heated plasmas. The lithium was ionized in the SOL and appeared to flow along the magnetic field to the divertor plates. This method of coating produced similar effects to the evaporated lithium but at lower amounts.

AB The DIII-D tokamak is equipped with neutral beam sources that inject in four different directions; in addition, the plasma can be moved up or down to compare off-axis with on-axis injection. Fast-ion data for eight different conditions have been obtained: co/counter, near-tangential/near-perpendicular and on-axis/off-axis. Neutron measurements during short beam pulses assess prompt and delayed losses under low-power conditions. As expected, co-injection has fewer losses than counter, tangential fewer than perpendicular and on-axis fewer than off-axis; the differences are greater at low current than at higher current. The helicity of the magnetic field has a weak effect on the overall confinement. Fast-ion D(alpha) (FIDA) and neutron measurements diagnose the confinement at higher power. The basic trends are the same as in low-power plasmas but, even in plasmas without long wavelength Alfven modes or other MHD, discrepancies with theory are observed, especially in higher temperature plasmas. At modest temperature, two-dimensional images of the FIDA light are in good agreement with the simulations for both on-axis and off-axis injection. Discrepancies with theory are more pronounced at low fast-ion energy and at high plasma temperature, suggesting that fast-ion transport by microturbulence is responsible for the anomalies.

Non-local electron kinetics, non-local electrodynamics with collisionless electron heating and non-linear processes in the sheaths are typical for such discharges. Progress in understanding the non-local interaction of electric fields with real, bounded plasma created by the fields has been one of the major achievements of the past few decades.

ID CENTERED LAGRANGIAN SCHEME; FLOW PROBLEMS
AB Experimental and theoretical results of relativistic electron transport in cylindrically compressed matter are presented. This experiment, which is a part of the HiPER roadmap, was achieved on the VULCAN laser facility (UK) using four long pulses beams (similar to 4 x 50 J, 1 ns, at 0.53 mu m) to compress a hollow plastic cylinder filled with plastic foam of three different densities (0.1, 0.3 and 1 g cm(-3)). 2D simulations predict a density of 2-5 g cm(-3) and a plasma temperature up to 100 eV at maximum compression. Ashort pulse (10 ps, 160 J) beam generated fast electrons that propagate through the compressed matter by irradiating a nickel foil at an intensity of 5 x 10(18) W cm(-2). X-ray spectrometer and imagers were implemented in order to estimate the compressed plasma conditions and to infer the hot electron characteristics. Results are discussed and compared with simulations.

AB The reversed field pinch configuration is characterized by the presence of magnetic structures both in the core and at the edge: in the core, at high plasma current the spontaneous development of a helical structure is accompanied by the appearance of internal electron transport barriers; at the edge strong pressure gradients, identifying an edge transport barrier, are observed too, related to the position of the field reversal surface.
The aim of this paper is the experimental characterization of both the internal and edge transport barriers in relation to the magnetic topology, discussing possible analogies and differences with other confinement schemes.

AB This paper reviews transport and confinement in spherical tokamaks (STs) and our current physics understanding of this that is partly based on gyrokinetic simulations. Equilibrium flow shear plays an important role, and we show how this is consistently included in the gyrokinetic framework for flows that greatly exceed the diamagnetic velocity. The key geometry factors that influence the effectiveness of turbulence suppression by flow shear are discussed, and we show that toroidal equilibrium flow shear can sometimes entirely suppress ion scale turbulence in today's STs. Advanced nonlinear simulations of electron temperature gradient (ETG) driven turbulence, including kinetic ion physics, collisions and equilibrium flow shear, support the model that ETG turbulence can explain electron heat transport in many ST discharges.

AB The acceleration of intense proton and ion beams by ultra-intense lasers has matured to a point where applications in basic research and technology are being developed. Crucial for harvesting the unmatched beam parameters driven by the relativistic electron sheath is the precise control of the beam. In this paper we report on recent experiments using the PHELIX laser at GSI, the VULCAN laser at RAL and the TRIDENT laser at LANL to control and use laser accelerated proton beams for applications in high energy density research. We demonstrate efficient collimation of the proton beam using high field pulsed solenoid magnets, a prerequisite to capture and transport the beam for applications. Furthermore, we report on two campaigns to use intense, short proton bunches to isochorically heat solid targets up to the warm dense matter state. The temporal profile of the proton beam allows for rapid heating of the target, much faster than the hydrodynamic response time thereby creating a strongly coupled plasma at solid density. The target parameters are then probed by x-ray Thomson scattering to reveal the density and temperature of the heated volume. This combination of two powerful techniques developed during the past few years allows for the generation and investigation of macroscopic samples of matter in states present in giant planets or the interior of the earth.

AB Several heuristic models for nonlocal transport in plasmas have been developed, but they have had a limited possibility of detailed comparison with experimental data. Nonlocal aspects introduced by the existence of a known spectrum of relatively stable saturated tearing modes in a low current reversed field pinch (RFP) offers a unique possibility for such a study. A numerical modeling of the magnetic structure and associated particle transport is carried out for the RFP experiment at the Consorzio RFX, Padova, Italy. A reproduction of the tearing mode spectrum with a guiding center code (White and Chance 1984 Phys. Fluids 27 2455) reliably reproduces the observed soft x-ray tomography. Following particle trajectories in the stochastic magnetic field shows the transport across the unperturbed flux surfaces to be due to a spectrum of Levy flights, with the details of the spectrum position dependent. The resulting transport is subdiffusive, and cannot be described by RechesterRosenbluth diffusion, which depends on a random phase approximation. If one attempts to fit the local transport phenomenologically, the subdiffusion can be fit with a combination of diffusion and inward pinch (Spizzo et al 2007 Phys. Plasmas 14 102310). It is found that whereas passing particles explore the stochastic field and hence participate in Levy flights, the trapped particles experience normal neoclassical diffusion.
A two fluid nonlocal Montroll equation is used to model this transport, with a Levy flight defined as the motion of an ion during the period that the pitch has one sign. The necessary input to the Montroll equation consists of a time distribution for the Levy flights, given by the pitch angle scattering operator, and a distribution of the flight distances, determined numerically using a guiding center code. Results are compared with the experiment. The relation of this formulation to fractional kinetics is also described.

AB Advanced ignition concepts, such as fast ignition and shock ignition, are being investigated at the Omega Laser Facility. Integrated fast-ignition experiments with room-temperature re-entrant cone targets have begun, using 18 kJ of 351 nm drive energy to implode empty 40 mu m thick CD shells, followed by 1.0 kJ of 1053 nm wavelength, short-pulse energy. Short pulses of 10 ps width have irradiated the inside of a hollow gold re-entrant cone at the time of peak compression. A threefold increase in the time-integrated, 2 to 7 keV x-ray emission was observed with x-ray pinhole cameras, indicating that energy is coupled from the short-pulse laser into the core by fast electrons. In shock-ignition experiments, spherical plastic-shell targets were compressed to high areal densities on a low adiabat, and a strong shock wave was sent into the converging, compressed capsule. In one experiment, 60 beams were used with an intensity spike at the end of the laser pulse, and the implosion performance was studied through neutron-yield and areal-density measurements. In a second experiment, the 60 OMEGA beams were split into a 40 + 20 configuration, with 40 low-intensity beams used for fuel assembly and 20 delayed beams with a short, high-intensity pulse shape (up to 1 x 10(16) W cm(-2)) for shock generation.

AB Metagenomic studies characterize both the composition and diversity of uncultured viral and microbial communities. BLAST-based comparisons have typically been used for such analyses; however, sampling biases, high percentages of unknown sequences, and the use of arbitrary thresholds to find significant similarities can decrease the accuracy and validity of estimates. Here, we present Genome relative Abundance and Average Size (GAAS), a complete software package that provides improved estimates of community composition and average genome length for metagenomes in both textual and graphical formats. GAAS implements a novel methodology to control for sampling bias via length normalization, to adjust for multiple BLAST similarities by similarity weighting, and to select significant similarities using relative alignment lengths. In benchmark tests, the GAAS method was robust to both high percentages of unknown sequences and to variations in metagenomic sequence read lengths. Re-analysis of the Sargasso Sea virome using GAAS indicated that standard methodologies for metagenomic analysis may dramatically underestimate the abundance and importance of organisms with small genomes in environmental systems. Using GAAS, we conducted a meta-analysis of microbial and viral average genome lengths in over 150 metagenomes from four biomes to determine whether genome lengths vary consistently between and within biomes, and between microbial and viral communities from the same environment. Significant differences between biomes and within aquatic sub-biomes (oceans, hypersaline systems, freshwater, and microbialites) suggested that average genome length is a fundamental property of environments driven by factors at the sub-biome level. The behavior of paired viral and microbial metagenomes from the same environment indicated that microbial and viral average genome sizes are independent of each other, but indicative of community responses to stressors and environmental conditions.

AB The AraC family transcription factor MarA activates similar to 40 genes (the marA/soxS/rob regulon) of the Escherichia coli chromosome resulting in different levels of resistance to a wide array of antibiotics and to superoxides. Activation of marA/soxS/rob regulon promoters occurs in a well-defined order with respect to the level of MarA; however, the order of activation does not parallel the strength of MarA binding to promoter sequences. To understand this lack of correspondence, we developed a computational model of transcriptional activation in which a transcription factor either increases or decreases RNA polymerase binding, and either accelerates or retards post-binding events associated with transcription initiation. We used the model to analyze data characterizing MarA regulation of promoter activity. The model clearly explains the lack of correspondence between the order of activation and the MarA-DNA affinity and indicates that the order of activation can only be predicted using information about the strength of the full MarA-polymerase-DNA interaction. The analysis further suggests that MarA can activate without increasing polymerase binding and that activation can even involve a decrease in polymerase binding, which is opposite to the textbook model of activation by recruitment. These findings are consistent with published chromatin immunoprecipitation assays of interactions between polymerase and the E. coli chromosome. We find that activation involving decreased polymerase binding yields lower latency in gene regulation and therefore might confer a competitive advantage to cells. Our model yields insights into requirements for predicting the order of activation of a regulon and enables us to suggest that activation might involve a decrease in polymerase binding which we expect to be an important theme of gene regulation in E. coli and beyond.

AB Long-term (up to 1000 days) accelerated oven-aging studies on a commercial fluorosilicone o-ring seal are used to predict the sealing lifetime at room temperature (23 degrees C). The study follows force decay (relaxation) on squeezed o-ring material using isothermal compression stress relaxation (CSR) techniques. The relaxation is normally a complex mix of reversible physical effects and non-reversible chemical effects but we utilize an over-strain approach to quickly achieve physical equilibrium. This allows us to concentrate the measurements on the chemical relaxation effects of primary interest to lifetime assessment. The long-term studies allow us to access a fairly broad temperature range (80-138 degrees C) which results in improved modeling of the temperature dependence of the accelerated data. Non-Arrhenius behavior is observed with evidence of a significant lowering of the activation energy at the lowest accelerated aging temperature (80 degrees C). This observation is consistent with numerous recent accelerated aging studies that probed temperature ranges large enough to observe similar non-Arrhenius behavior. The extrapolated predictions imply that significant loss of sealing force requires on the order of 50-100 years at 23 degrees C. Field aging results out to similar to 25 years at 23 degrees C are shown to be in reasonable accord with the significant change in Arrhenius slope observed from the accelerated aging study.

AB The results of following the oxidative degradation of a plastic-bonded explosive (PBX 9501) are reported. Into over 1100 sealed containers were placed samples of PBX 9501 and combinations of its components and aged at relatively low temperatures to induce oxidative degradation of the samples. One of the components of the explosive is a poly(ester urethane) polymer and the oxidative degradation of the samples were following by measuring the molecular weight change of the polymer by gel permeation chromatography (coupled with both differential refractive index and multiangle laser light scattering detectors). Multiple temperatures between 40 and 64 degrees C were used to accelerate the aging of the samples. Interesting induction period behavior, along with both molecular weight increasing (cross-linking) and decreasing (chain scissioning) processes, were found at these relatively mild conditions. The molecular weight growth rates were fit to a random crosslinking model for all the combinations of components. The fit rate coefficients show Arrhenius behavior and activation energies and frequency factors were obtained. The kinetics of molecular weight growth shows a compensatory effect between the Arrhenius prefactors and activation energies, suggesting a common degradation process between PBX 9501 and the various combinations of its constituents. An oxidative chemical mechanism of the polymer is postulated, consistent with previous experimental results, that involves a competition between urethane radical crosslinking and carbonyl formation.

AB During pre-replication complex (pre-RC) formation, origin recognition complex (ORC), Cdc6, and Cdt1 cooperatively load the 6-subunit mini chromosome maintenance (MCM2-7) complex onto DNA. Loading of MCM2-7 is a prerequisite for DNA licensing that restricts DNA replication to once per cell cycle. During S phase MCM2-7 functions as part of the replicative helicase but within the pre-RC MCM2-7 is inactive. The organization of replicative DNA helicases before and after loading onto DNA has been studied in bacteria and viruses but not eukaryotes and is of major importance for understanding the MCM2-7 loading mechanism and replisome assembly. Lack of an efficient reconstituted pre-RC system has hindered the detailed mechanistic and structural analysis of MCM2-7 loading for a long time. We have reconstituted Saccharomyces cerevisiae pre-RC formation with purified proteins and showed efficient loading of MCM2-7 onto origin DNA in vitro. MCM2-7 loading was found to be dependent on the presence of all pre-RC proteins, origin DNA, and ATP hydrolysis. The quaternary structure of MCM2-7 changes during pre-RC formation: MCM2-7 before loading is a single hexamer in solution but is transformed into a double-hexamer during pre-RC formation. Using electron microscopy (EM), we observed that loaded MCM2-7 encircles DNA. The loaded MCM2-7 complex can slide on DNA, and sliding is not directional. Our results provide key insights into mechanisms of pre-RC formation and have important implications for understanding the role of the MCM2-7 in establishment of bidirectional replication forks.

AB The threat posed by climate change and the striving for security of energy supply are issues high on the political agenda these days. Governments are putting strategic plans in motion to decrease primary energy use, take carbon out of fuels and facilitate modal shifts.
Taking a prominent place in these strategic plans is hydrogen as a future energy carrier. A number of manufacturers are now leasing demonstration vehicles to consumers using hydrogen-fueled internal combustion engines (H(2)ICEs) as well as fuel cell vehicles. Developing countries in particular are pushing for H(2)ICEs (powering two- and three-wheelers as well as passenger cars and buses) to decrease local pollution at an affordable cost.
This article offers a comprehensive overview of H(2)ICEs. Topics that are discussed include fundamentals of the combustion of hydrogen, details on the different mixture formation strategies and their emissions characteristics, measures to convert existing vehicles, dedicated hydrogen engine features, a state of the art on increasing power output and efficiency while controlling emissions and modeling.

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

AB Pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) is a commonly used energetic material with both military and civilian applications. Good ignition properties mandate a powdered material with a high Surface area. However. existing experimental data on PETN powder suggest an active surface that leads to particle coarsening and gradual reduction of the specific surface area over time. In this work we review some of the atomic-level and coarse-grained potential models developed for PETN and discuss their applications for studying particle morphology, growth, and surface kinetics, including molecular diffusion and evaporation/condensation rates. Simulation methods include classical molecular dynamics, kinetic Monte Carlo, and transition state calculations.

Emissions
AB Los Alamos National Laboratory collected broadband radio frequency (RF) electric field change measurements from multiple detonations of high explosives (HE). Three types of HE were used: small cylinders of flake TNT, solid TNT, and PBX-9501. Low frequency signals (< 80 MHz) were shot-to-shot repeatable and occurred within the first 100 mu s at measured amplitudes of about 2 V m(-1) at 35 m distance. High frequency signals (> 290 MHz) occurred later, were an order of magnitude lower in signal strength, and were not repeatable. There is a positive correlation between the maximum electric field change and the shock velocity of the HE. The amount of free charge produced in the explosion estimated from the first RF pulse is between 10 and 150 mu C. This implies a weakly ionized plasma with temperatures between 2600 and 2900 K.

AB The Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) is a wide-field experiment designed to investigate the optical transient and variable sky on time scales from minutes to years. PTF uses the CFH12k mosaic camera, with a field of view of 7:9 deg(2) and a plate scale of 1 '' pixel(-1), mounted on the Palomar Observatory 48 inch Samuel Oschin Telescope. The PTF operation strategy is devised to probe the existing gaps in the transient phase space and to search for theoretically predicted, but not yet detected, phenomena, such as fallback supernovae, macronovae, .Ia supernovae, and the orphan afterglows of gamma-ray bursts. PTF will also discover many new members of known source classes, from cataclysmic variables in their various avatars to supernovae and active galactic nuclei, and will provide important insights into understanding galactic dynamics (through RR Lyrae stars) and the solar system (asteroids and near-Earth objects). The lessons that can be learned from PTF will be essential for the preparation of future large synoptic sky surveys like the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope. In this article we present the scientific motivation for PTF and describe in detail the goals and expectations for this experiment.

ID SKY SURVEY; CLASSIFICATION; SUPERNOVAE; PIPELINE
AB The Palomar Transient Factory (PTF) is a fully-automated, wide-field survey aimed at a systematic exploration of the optical transient sky. The transient survey is performed using a new 8.1 square degree camera installed on the 48 inch Samuel Oschin telescope at Palomar Observatory; colors and light curves for detected transients are obtained with the automated Palomar 60 inch telescope. PTF uses 80% of the 1.2 m and 50% of the 1.5 m telescope time. With an exposure of 60 s the survey reaches a depth of m(g') approximate to 21:3 and m(R) approximate to 20:6 (5 sigma, median seeing). Four major experiments are planned for the five-year project:(1) a 5 day cadence supernova search; (2) a rapid transient search with cadences between 90 s and 1 day; (3) a search for eclipsing binaries and transiting planets in Orion; and (4) a 3 pi sr deep H-alpha survey. PTF provides automatic, real-time transient classification and follow-up, as well as a database including every source detected in each frame. This paper summarizes the PTF project, including several months of on-sky performance tests of the new survey camera, the observing plans, and the data reduction strategy. We conclude by detailing the first 51 PTF optical transient detections, found in commissioning data.

EXTRACTION; DATA RELEASE; SPECTRA; SPECTROSCOPY
AB We introduce a data-reduction package written in Interactive Data Language (IDL) for the Magellan Echellete Spectrograph (MAGE). MAGE is a medium-resolution (R similar to 4100), cross-dispersed, optical spectrograph, with coverage from similar to 3000-10000 angstrom. The MAGE Spectral Extractor (MASE) incorporates the entire image reduction and calibration process, including bias subtraction, flat fielding, wavelength calibration, sky subtraction, object extraction, and flux calibration of point sources. We include examples of the user interface and reduced spectra. We show that the wavelength calibration is sufficient to achieve similar to 5 km s(-1) rms accuracy and relative flux calibrations better than 10%. A lightweight version of the full reduction pipeline has been included for real-time source extraction and signal-to-noise estimation at the telescope.

The photometry pipeline has high computational performance, and is capable of real-time photometric reduction of images containing up to 1000 stars, within the sampling rate of 5 Hz. The pipeline is optimized for both speed and signal-to-noise performance, and in the latter category it performs nearly as well as DAOPHOT.

AB The performance of Radio-Isotope IDentification (RIID) algorithms using gamma spectroscopy is increasingly becoming important. For example, sensors at locations that screen for illicit nuclear material rely on isotope identification to resolve innocent nuisance alarms arising from naturally occurring radioactive material. Recent data collections for RIID testing consist of repeat measurements for each of several scenarios to test RIID algorithms. Efficient allocation of measurement resources requires an appropriate number of repeats for each scenario. To help allocate measurement resources in such data collections for RIID algorithm testing, we consider using only a few real repeals per scenario. In order to reduce uncertainty in the estimated RIID algorithm performance for each scenario, the potential merit of augmenting these real repeals with realistic synthetic repeals is also considered. Our results suggest that for the scenarios and algorithm considered, approximately 10 real repeals augmented with simulated repeals will result in all estimate having comparable uncertainty to the estimate based oil using 60 real repeals.

AB Three readily available second-order response surface designs for a relatively large number of factors are examined and compared. The number of factors in this study range from 6 <= k <= 10 for both spherical and cuboidal regions of interest. As the number of factors in an experiment increases, the number of terms in the second-order model, as well as the total number of observations can increase quite rapidly. Hence finding economical designs that still predict well in the region of interest is an important objective. The scaled and unscaled prediction variances are investigated over the design region for the central composite design (CCD), small composite design (SCD), and minimum-run resolution (MinRes) V designs. For each of the cuboidal and spherical regions, several choices of axial values are compared. Fraction of design space (FDS) plots and box plots are constructed to characterize the prediction variance properties for the designs in this study.

AB In the pattern matching approach to imaging science, the process of "metamorphosis" is template matching with dynamical templates (Trouve and Younes, Found. Comp. Math., 2005). Here, we recast the metamorphosis equations of that paper into the Euler-Poincare variational framework of Holm, Marsden, and Ratiu, Adv. in Math., 1998 and show that the metamorphosis equations contain the equations for a perfect complex fluid (Holm, Springer, 2002). This result connects the ideas underlying the process of metamorphosis in image matching to the physical concept of an order parameter in the theory of complex fluids. After developing the general theory, we reinterpret various examples, including point set, image and density metamorphosis. We finally discuss the issue of matching measures with metamorphosis, for which we provide existence theorems for the initial and boundary value problems.

AB The Cordillera Huayhuash in the central Peruvian Andes (10.3 degrees S, 76.9 degrees W) is an ideal mountain range in which to study regional climate through variations in paleoglacier extents. The range trends nearly north-south with modern glaciers confined to peaks >4800 m a.s.l. Geomorphology and geochronology in the nearby Cordillera Blanca and Junin Plain reveal that the Peruvian Andes preserve a detailed record of tropical glaciation. Here, we use ASTER imagery, aerial photographs, and GPS to map and date glacial features in both the western and eastern drainages of the Cordillera Huayhuash. We have used in situ produced cosmogenic Be-10 concentrations in quartz bearing erratics on moraine crests and ice-polished bedrock surfaces to develop an exposure age chronology for Pleistocene glaciation within the range. We have also collected sediment cores from moraine-dammed lakes and bogs to provide limiting C-14 ages for glacial deposits. In contrast to the ranges to the north and south, most glacial features within the Cordillera Huayhuash are Lateglacial in age, however we have identified features with ages that span similar to 0.2 to similar to 38 ka with moraine sets marking the onset of glacier retreat at similar to 0.3 ka, similar to 9-10 ka, similar to 13-14 ka, similar to 20-22 ka, and >26 ka. The range displays a pronounced east-west variation in maximum down-valley distance from the headwall of moraine crests with considerably longer paleoglaciers in the eastern drainages. Importantly, Lateglacial paleoglaciers reached a terminal elevation of similar to 4000 m a.s.l. on both sides of the Cordillera Huayhuash; suggesting that temperature may have been a dominant factor in controlling the maximum glacier extent. We suggest that valley morphology, specifically valley slope, strongly influences down-valley distance to the maximum glacier extent and potential for moraine preservation. While regionally there is an extensive record of older (>50 ka) advances to the north (Cordillera Blanca) and to the south (Junin region), the apparent lack of old moraines in this locality may be explained by the confined morphology of the Cordillera Huayhuash valleys that has inhibited the preservation of older glacial geomorphic features.

AB Previously unreported bis(oxalato)borate (BOB) ionic liquids (ILs) containing imidazolium, pyridinium, and pyrrolidinium cations were prepared from the corresponding halide salts by reaction with sodium bis(oxalato)borate (NaBOB), and their properties are reported. Pulse radiolysis experiments revealed that the BOB anion scavenges solvated electrons with rate constants of similar to 3 x 108 M(-1) s(-1) in the ionic liquid C(4)mpyrr NTf(2) and 2.8 x 10(7) M(-1) s(-1) in water. This reactivity indicates that BOB ILS may be too sensitive to be used as neat solvents for nuclear separations processes in high radiation fields but may still be useful for preventing criticality while processing relatively "cold" fissile actinides.

AB We studied the dynamics of photo-detrapped solvated electrons in the ionic liquid trimethyl-N-propylammonium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (TMPA-TFSI) using laser flash photolysis. The solvated electrons were produced by the electron photodetachment from iodide via a 248 nm KrF excimer laser. The solvated electron decayed by first-order kinetics with a lifetime of about 240 ns. The spectrum of the solvated electron in the ionic liquid TMPA-TFSI is very broad with a peak around 1100 nm. After the 248 nm pulse, a 532 nm pulse was used to subsequently detrap the solvated electrons. After the detrapping pulse, quasi-permanent bleaching was observed. The relative magnitude of the bleaching in the solvated electron absorbance was measured from 500 to 1000 nm. The amount of bleaching depends on the probe wavelength. The fraction of bleached absorbance was larger at 500 nm than that at 1000 nm, suggesting that there are at least two species that absorb 532 nm light. We discuss the present results from viewpoint of the heterogeneity of ionic liquids. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Interlaboratory Variation in Scoring Dicentric Chromosomes in a Case of Partial-Body X-Ray Exposure: Implications for Biodosimetry Networking and Cytogenetic "Triage Mode" Scoring. Radiat. Res. 172, 746752(2009).
The international radiation biodosimetry community has recently been engaged in activities focused on establishing cooperative networks for biodosimetric triage for radiation emergency scenarios involving mass casualties. To this end, there have been several recent publications in the literature regarding the potential for shared scoring in such an accident or incident. We present details from a medical irradiation case where two independently validated laboratories found very different yields of dicentric chromosome aberrations. The potential reasons for this disparity are discussed, and the actual reason is identified as being the partial-body nature of the radiation exposure combined with differing criteria for metaphase selection. In the context of the recent networking activity, this report is intended to highlight the fact that shared scoring may produce inconsistencies and that further validation of the scoring protocols and experimental techniques may be required before the networks are prepared to deal satisfactorily with a radiological or nuclear emergency. Also, the findings presented here clearly demonstrate the limitations of the dicentric assay for estimating radiation doses after partial-body exposures and bring into question the usefulness of rapid "triage mode" scoring in such exposure scenarios.

The operating mode of the atomic force microscope is used to produce topographic surface images having sub-micrometer spatial and height resolution. Spatially resolved mass spectra of ions, produced from the same surface via microprobe-mode laser desorption/ionization at atmospheric pressure, are also used to create a 100 x 100 mu m chemical image. The effective spatial resolution of the image (similar to 2 mu m) was constrained by the limit of detection (estimated to be 10(9)-10(10) molecules) rather than by the diameter of the focused laser spot or the step size of the sample stage. The instrument has the potential to be particularly useful for surface analysis scenarios in which chemical analysis of targeted topographic features is desired; consequently, it should have extensive application in a number of scientific areas. Because the number density of desorbed neutral species in laser desorption/ionization is known to be orders-of-magnitude greater than that of ions, it is expected that improvements in imaging performance can be realized by implementation of post-ionization methods.

AB Due to increased attention towards clean and sustainable energy, distributed energy (DE) systems are gaining popularity all over the world. Power electronics are an integral part of these energy systems being able to convert generated electricity into consumer usable and utility compatible forms. But the addition of power electronics adds costs to the DE capital investments along with some reliability issues. Therefore, widespread use of distributed energy requires power electronics topologies that are less expensive and more dependable. Use of modular power electronics is a way to address these issues. Adoption of functional building blocks that can be used for multiple applications results in high volume production and reduced engineering effort, design testing, onsite installation and maintenance work for specific customer applications. In this paper, different power electronics topologies are reviewed that are typically used with distributed energy systems. The integrated power electronics module (IPEM) based back-to-back converter topologies are found to be most suitable interface that can operate with different DE systems with small or no modifications. Also the requirements for a hierarchical control structure with standardized power and communication interfaces are addressed in the paper along with some discussion on future design possibilities for the IPEM-based power electronics topologies. It is expected that modular and flexible power electronics and standardized controls and interfaces. will provide commonality in hardware and software for the power electronics interfaces, thus will enable their volume production and decrease their cost share in distributed energy applications.

ID OF-THE-ART; POWERED DESALINATION
AB Despite the abundance of renewable energy resources in the Arab region, the use of solar thermal, solar photovoltaics, and wind is still in its technological and economic infancy. Great potential exists, but economic constraints have impeded more rapid growth for many applications. These technologies have certainly advanced technically over the last quarter century to the point where they should now be considered clean-energy alternatives to fossil fuels. For the Arab countries and many other regions of the world, potable water is becoming as critical a commodity as electricity. As renewable energy technologies advance and environmental concerns rise, these technologies are becoming more interesting partners for powering water desalination projects. We evaluate the current potential and viability of solar and wind, emphasizing the strict mandate for accurate, reliable site-specific resource data. Water desalination can be achieved through either thermal energy (using phase-change processes) or electricity (driving membrane processes), and these sources are best matched to the particular desalination technology. Desalination using solar thermal can be accomplished by multistage flash distillation, multi-effect distillation, vapor compression, freeze separation, and solar still methods. Concentrating solar power offers the best match to large-scale plants that require both high-temperature fluids and electricity. Solar and wind electricity can be effective energy sources for reverse osmosis, electrodialysis, and ultra- and nano-filtration. All these water desalination processes have special operational and high energy requirements that put additional requisites on the use of solar and wind to power these applications. We summarize the characteristics of the various desalination technologies. The effective match of solar thermal, solar photovoltaics, and wind to each of these is discussed in detail. An economic analysis is provided that incorporates energy consumption, water production levels, and environmental benefits in its model. Finally, the expected evolution of the renewable technologies over the near- to mid-term is discussed with the implications for desalination applications over these timeframes.

AB To ensure photovoltaics become a major sustainable player in a competitive power-generation market, they must provide abundant, affordable electricity. with environmental impacts drastically lower than those from conventional power generation. The recent reduction in the cost of 2nd generation thin-film PV is remarkable, meeting the production milestone of $1 per watt in the fourth quarter of 2008. This achievement holds great promise for the future. However, the questions remaining are whether the expense of PV modules can be lowered further, and if there are resource- and environmental-impact constraints to growth. I examine the potential of thin-films in a prospective life-cycle analysis, focusing on direct costs, resource availability, and environmental impacts. These three aspects are closely related; developing thinner solar cells and recycling spent modules will become increasingly important in resolving cost, resource, and environmental constraints to large scales of sustainable growth.

AB Shear viscosity is a measure of the amount of dissipation in a simple fluid. In kinetic theory shear viscosity is related to the rate of momentum transport by quasi-particles, and the uncertainty relation suggests that the ratio of shear viscosity eta to entropy density s in units of (h) over bar /k(B) is bounded by a constant. Here, (h) over bar is Planck's constant and k(B) is Boltzmann's constant. A specific bound has been proposed on the basis of string theory where, for a large class of theories, one can show that eta/s >= (h) over bar/(4 pi k(B)). We will refer to a fluid that saturates the string theory bound as a perfect fluid. In this review we summarize theoretical and experimental information on the properties of the three main classes of quantum fluids that are known to have values of eta/s that are smaller than (h) over bar /k(B). These fluids are strongly coupled Bose fluids, in particular liquid helium, strongly correlated ultracold Fermi gases and the quark gluon plasma. We discuss the main theoretical approaches to transport properties of these fluids: kinetic theory, numerical simulations based on linear response theory and holographic dualities. We also summarize the experimental situation, in particular with regard to the observation of hydrodynamic behavior in ultracold Fermi gases and the quark gluon plasma.

AB Standard commercial infrared microscopes operating in reflection mode use a mirror to direct the reflected light from the sample to the detector. This mirror blocks about half of the incident light, however, and thus degrades the spatial resolution by reducing the numerical aperture of the objective. Here, we replace the mirror with a 50% beamsplitter to allow full illumination of the objective and retain a way to direct the reflected light to the detector. The improved spatial resolution is demonstrated using two different microscopes capable of diffraction-limited resolution: the first microscope is coupled to a synchrotron source and utilizes a single point detector, whereas the second microscope has a standard blackbody source and uses a focal plane array detector.

ID ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY; EMISSION SPECTROSCOPY; WATER
AB We present a novel synchrotron endstation with a flow-through liquid cell designed to study the electronic structure of liquids using soft x-ray spectroscopies. In this cell, the liquid under study is separated from the vacuum by a thin window membrane, such that the sample liquid can be investigated at ambient pressure. The temperature of the probing volume can be varied in a broad range and with a fast temperature response. The optimized design of the cell significantly reduces the amount of required sample liquid and allows the use of different window membrane types necessary to cover a broad energy range. The liquid cell is integrated into the solid and liquid spectroscopic analysis (SALSA) endstation that includes a high-resolution, high-transmission x-ray spectrometer and a state-of-the-art electron analyzer. The modular design of SALSA also allows the measurement of solid-state samples. The capabilities of the liquid cell and the x-ray spectrometer are demonstrated using a resonant inelastic x-ray scattering map of a 25 wt % NaOD solution. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

The probe is mounted in a fast pneumatic drive capable of speeds similar to 7 m/s and similar to 20g's acceleration in order to reach the scrape-off layer (SOL) and pedestal regions and remain inserted long enough to obtain good statistics while minimizing the heat deposition to the tips and head in a power density environment of 1-10 MW/m(2). The National Spherical Torus Experiment SOL features electron temperature, T(e) similar to 10-30 eV, and electron density, n(e) similar to 0.1-5 x 10(12) cm(-3) while the pedestal features n(e) similar to 0.5-1.5 x 10(13) cm(-3) and T(e) similar to 30-150 eV. The probe described here has ten tips which obtain a wide spectrum of plasma parameters: electron temperature profile T(e)(r), electron density profile n(e)(r) and Mach number profile M(r), floating potential V(f)(r), poloidal and radial electric field profiles E(theta)(r) and E(rho)(r), saturation current profile I(sat)(r), and their fluctuations up to 3 MHz.

AB We present a dedicated experimental spin-echo resolved grazing incidence scattering (SERGIS) setup for the investigation of surfaces and thin films exhibiting large lateral length scales. This technique uses the neutron spin to encode one in-plane component of the wave-vector transfer in a grazing angle scattering experiment. Instead of the scattering angle, the depolarization of the scattered beam is measured. This allows one to achieve a very high in-plane momentum resolution without collimation of the incident neutron beam in the corresponding direction. SERGIS can therefore offer an alternative or complementary method to conventional grazing incidence neutron scattering experiments. We describe the experimental setup installed at the neutron sources ILL (Grenoble) and FRM II (Garching) and present data obtained with this setup on various samples exhibiting characteristic mesoscopic length scales in the range of several hundred nanometers. We also derive general formulas and error margins for the analysis and interpretation of SERGIS data and apply them to the cases of a one-dimensional structure and of an island morphology.

systems; fundamental neutron physics
AB A sensitive measurement of parity-violating (PV) observables in few-nucleon systems can shed light on our current understanding of the hadronic weak interaction at low momentum transfers. Theoretical models describe the nucleon-nucleon weak interaction at low energies with 6 parameters that need, in principle, to be determined in the same number of independent experiments. In this context, a series of experiments with cold neutrons are being proposed and developed. Particularly, experiments that aim to measure the parity-violating asymmetry in the distribution of the gamma-rays emitted in the capture of polarized neutrons by protons and deuterium, will be discussed in this paper.

AB We present a new approach to measuring the neutrino-spin correlation parameter B in neutron decay. The approach combines the technology of large-area ion-implanted silicon detectors being developed for the abBA experiment, with an ultracold neutron source to provide more precise neutron polarimetry. The technique detects both proton and electron from the neutron decay in coincidence. B is determined from an electron-energy-dependent measurement of the proton-spin asymmetry. This approach will provide a statistical precision of 1 x 10(-4). The systematic precision is still being evaluated, but is expected to be below 1 x 10(-3), and could approach 1 x 10(-4). A measurement of B with this precision would place constraints on supersymmetric extensions to the Standard Model.

AB The conversion of biomass, specifically lignocellulosic biomass, into fuels and chemicals has recently gained national attention as an alternative to the use of fossil fuels. Increasing the concentration of the biomass solids during biochemical conversion has a large potential to reduce production costs. These concentrated biomass slurries have highly viscous, non-Newtonian behavior that poses several technical challenges to the conversion process. A collaborative effort to measure the rheology of a biomass slurry at four separate laboratories has been undertaken. A comprehensive set of rheological properties were measured using several different rheometers, flow geometries, and experimental methods. The tendency for settling, water evaporation, and wall slip required special care when performing the experiments. The rheological properties were measured at different concentrations up to 30% insoluble solids by mass. The slurry was found to be strongly shear-thinning, to be viscoelastic, and to have a significant concentration-dependent yield stress. The elastic modulus was found to be almost an order of magnitude larger than the loss modulus and weakly dependent on frequency. The techniques and results of this work will be useful to characterize other biomass slurries and in the design of biochemical conversion processing steps that operate at high solids concentrations.

TI Estimation of the tectonic slip-rate from Quaternary lacustrine facies
within the intraplate Albacete province (SE of Spain)
SO SEDIMENTARY GEOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
DE Lacustrine record; Quaternary fault; Slip rate; Intraplate;
Paleoearthquake
AB The Quaternary lacustrine basin of Cordovilla (CB) represents one of the most active tectonic areas of the Prebetic Zone (Albacete, SE of Spain). The Quaternary sedimentary deposits of this basin are mainly endoreic lacustrine carbonate and alluvial deposits, developed in a semi-arid climate (Pleistocene-present). The basin is a NW-SE-elongated graben bounded by a major right-lateral oblique-fault, the Pozohondo Fault. This fault trends NW-SE, with an approximate trace of 55 km, and is composed of various segments which are identified by fault scarps. In order to establish the slip-rate of the most active segment of the Pozohondo Fault, called the Cordovilla segment, we carried out a detailed study of the affected Quaternary lacustrine deposits. We found that the lacustrine facies could be related to episodic moderate paleoearthquakes. The slip-rate is calculated to be 0.05 and 0.09 mm/yr, using radiometric dating for the vertical offsets of the lacustrine facies. A trenching study at the northern part of the Cordovilla segment revealed two events caused by paleoearthquakes, with the most recent expressed as an oblique-fault off-setting a poorly-developed soil. The magnitude of the last event was greater than 6, using various empirical relationships for the fault displacement and the surface-length rupture. We estimate episodic activity across the Cordovilla segment, to be characterized by moderate-sized paleoearthquakes (M6), which is in agreement with the tectonic context of an intraplate zone of the Iberian plate.

ID ENERGY USE
AB Shadows cast by trees and buildings can limit the solar access of rooftop solar-energy systems, including photovoltaic panels and thermal collectors. This study characterizes residential rooftop shading in Sacramento, San Jose, Los Angeles and San Diego, CA. Our analysis can be used to better estimate power production and/or thermal collection by rooftop solar-energy equipment. It can also be considered when designing programs to plant shade trees.
High-resolution orthophotos and LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) measurements of surface height were used to create a digital elevation model of all trees and buildings in a well-treed 2.5-4 km(2) residential neighborhood. On-hour shading of roofing planes (the flat elements of roofs) was computed geometrically from the digital elevation model. Values in future years were determined by repeating these calculations after simulating tree growth. Parcel boundaries were used to determine the extent to which roofing planes were shaded by trees and buildings in neighboring parcels.
For the subset of S + SW + W-facing planes on which solar equipment is commonly installed for maximum solar access, absolute light loss in spring, summer and fall peaked about 2 to 4 h after sunrise and about 2 to 4 h before sunset. The fraction of annual insolation lost to shading increased from 0.07-0.08 in the year of surface-height measurement to 0.11-0.14 after 30 years of tree growth. Only about 10% of this loss resulted from shading by trees and buildings in neighboring parcels. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Spectroscopy in a high magnetic field reduces second-order quadrupolar shift while increasing chemical shift. It changes the scale between quadrupolar and chemical shift of half-integer quadrupolar spins. The application of QCPMG multiple echo for acquiring large quadrupolar pattern under the high magnetic field of a 25 T resistive magnet is presented for acquiring large quadrupolar patterns. It shows that temporal field fluctuations and spatial homogeneity of the Keck magnet at the NHMFL contribute about +/- 20 ppm in line broadening. NMR patterns which have breadths of hundreds to thousands of kilohertz can be efficiently recorded using a combination of QCPMG and magnetic field stepping with negligible hindrance from the inhomogeneity and field fluctuations of powered magnets.

TI A WADATI FILTER FOR MINE-INDUCED SEISMICITY
SO SOUTH AFRICAN JOURNAL OF GEOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
AB We introduce a procedure based on Wadati diagrams to assess and improve the consistency of P- and S-wave travel-time picks with the assumption of propagation at constant wave-speed. Wadati diagrams are plots of S-P vs P-wave travel-times and they are expected to lie along a straight line for a medium of constant velocity. Our procedure automatically searches for the largest subset of (P,S-P) travel-time pairs with regression coefficient above 0.9, which effectively removes travel-times associated with non-homogeneous ray-paths. Inaccuracies in travel-time picks clue to clock drifts or complex arrivals and/or erroneous event associations are also identified and eliminated through this procedure. An application to P- and S-wave travel-times from 11,224 events recorded during 2007 on an in-mine network in Savuka mine near Carletonville (South Africa), reveals that a high correlation coefficient alone is not sufficient to ensure consistency. The histogram of v(p)/v(s) values inferred from the slopes of the Wadati diagrams peaks at values of 1.62 to 1.63, in agreement with the underlying geology, but a significant portion of the catalogued events show unrealistic v(p)/v(s) values. Adding realistic constraints on the slopes of the linear fits to the Wadati filter is critical to ensure the consistency of the travel-time picks. Event relocations obtained for the filtered data set assuming propagation at constant wave-speed do not deviate significantly from locations reported by the in-mine network operator.

density of YBa2Cu3O7-delta coatings
SO SUPERCONDUCTOR SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY

DT Article
ID YBCO COATED CONDUCTOR; MISFIT DISLOCATIONS; FILMS; TEMPERATURE; WIRE
AB The critical current density (J(c)) of very thin YBa2Cu3O7-delta (YBCO) films can approach 10 MA cm(-2) at 77 K in self-field, but for such films J(c) drops sharply as the film thickness is increased. We have shown previously that this strong thickness dependence results from an enhancement of J(c) near the film-substrate interface. In the present paper we investigate interfacial enhancement using laser-deposited YBCO films on NdGaO3 substrates, and find that we can adjust deposition conditions to switch the enhancement on and off. We find that the 'on' state is accompanied by a dense array of interfacial misfit dislocations, while we do not observe dislocations in films prepared in the 'off' state. This result appears to be but one of many examples in which interfacial properties of electronic film materials are profoundly affected by stress-induced defects at the film-substrate interface; however, to our knowledge the present work is the only case in which electronic properties are shown to be enhanced by such defects.

AB We present measurements of the field and angular dependence of the critical current density (J(c)) and melting line made using transport and magnetization techniques for SrFe1.8Co0.2As2 (nominal composition) biaxially oriented films. At high magnetic fields the angular dependence of the melting line and J(c) (for mu H-0 > 2 T) can be successfully scaled using an anisotropic scaling with gamma = 2, indicating a random-point-like pinning contribution. At lower fields, angular and field J(c) dependences strongly depend on the magnetic field history. We find a hysteretic behaviour of J(c) with H with higher J(c) in the descending branch, similar to that attributed to magnetic pinning and granularity effects. Furthermore this allows us to tune J(c)(Theta) such that a J(c) peak along the c axis can be enhanced up to 30%. The low values of J(c) measured suggest that granularity depresses J(c) but does not rule out the possibility of dilute magnetic pinning.

AB A combination of H-2 TPRX, TR-XRD and XPS analysis has been used to investigate the effects of CO2 on the desulfation of pre-sulfated Pt-BaO/Al2O3 samples. The results demonstrate that the presence of CO2 promotes the removal of sulfur species, especially at temperatures below 500 degrees C, with a corresponding suppression of BaS formation, thus resulting in a lower amount of residual sulfur on the sample after desulfation.

AB Mechanisms of microscale wear in silicon-based microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are elucidated by studying a polysilicon nanotractor, a device specifically designed to conduct friction and wear tests under controlled conditions. Photoelectron emission microscopy (PEEM) was combined with near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy (AFM) to quantitatively probe chemical changes and structural modification, respectively, in the wear track of the nanotractor. The ability of PEEM-NEXAFS to spatially map chemical variations in the near-surface region of samples at high lateral spatial resolution is unparalleled and therefore ideally suited for this study. The results show that it is possible to detect microscopic chemical changes using PEEM-NEXAFS, specifically, oxidation at the sliding interface of a MEMS device. We observe that wear induces oxidation of the polysilicon at the immediate contact interface, and the spectra are consistent with those from amorphous SiO(2). The oxidation is correlated with gouging and debris build-up in the wear track, as measured by AFM and scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

AB We recently described a data analysis method for precise (similar to 0.1 angstrom random error in the mean for a 200 kV instrument with a 3 angstrom FWHM probe size) size measurements of small clusters of heavy metal atoms on supports as imaged in a scanning transmission electron microscope, including an experimental demonstration using clusters that were primarily triosmium or decaosmium. The method is intended for low signal-to-noise ratio images of radiation-sensitive samples. We now present a detailed analysis, including a generalization to address issues of particle anisotropy and biased orientation distributions. In the future, this analysis should enable extraction of shape as well as size information, up to the noise-defined limit of information present in the image. We also present results from an extensive series of simulations designed to determine the method's range of applicability and expected performance in realistic situations. The simulations reproduce the experiments quite accurately, enabling a correction of systematic errors so that only the similar to 0.1 angstrom random error remains. The results are very stable over a wide range of parameters. We introduce a variation on the method with improved precision and stability relative to the original version, while also showing how simple diagnostics can test whether the results are reliable in any particular instance.

AB In this study, the effect of various image-processing techniques on the visibility of tomographic reconstructions is investigated for a low-contrast material system of non-uniform thickness containing complex features such as grain boundaries and nanoparticles. Starting with a tilt series of high-angle annular dark-field (HAADF) images from an area of Dy-doped YBa(2)Cu(3)O(7-x)-coated superconductor obtained using a scanning transmission electron microscope, various image-processing techniques were applied. These can be classified as edge detection, contrast-enhancing methods for non-uniform thickness and image sharpening. Although the processing methods violate the projection criterion for tomographic reconstruction, they were found, at least in this case, to enhance contrast and define the correct shape and size of structural features with minimal artifacts. Enhancing the visibility of structural features in this way allows the spatial distribution of the nanoparticles, their size, number density and location relative to each other and grain boundaries to be determined, which are essential to understand the flux-pinning characteristics of these materials.

AB The influence of nanoscopic magnetoelectronic phase separation on electrical transport in La1-xSrxCoO3 crystals is reported. It is demonstrated; (i) that the T=0 metal-insulator transition can be quantitatively understood using double exchange-modified percolation theory, and, (ii) that the onset of a phase-pure low T ferromagnetic state at high x has a profound effect on the high T transport due to a crossover in the nature of the spin fluctuations. It is concluded that many features of the transport in La1-xSrxCoO3 can be thoroughly understood based on our current understanding of the phase-separated state.

AB We report the detailed field-induced transformation of coupled Neacuteel walls in micron-sized trilayer elliptical elements for novel domain-wall-based device applications. Using in situ Lorentz transmission electron microscopy and micromagnetic simulation, we demonstrate that the magnetostatically coupled composite wall structure can be switched controllably without affecting the overall flux-closure domain configuration via separate translation of vortex cores in the two magnetic layers. The top and bottom Neacuteel walls either trap or expel each other depending on the relative orientation of their magnetization directions, leading to the interesting domain switching behavior observed during magnetization reversal.

AB Surface structural effects accompanying the antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic magnetostructral transition of epitaxial FeRh thin films were investigated by grazing incidence x-ray scattering. Measurement of the film lattice parameters and variation of x-ray incident angles allow observation of the transition character on scales ranging from a few nm to the total through-thickness of the film. Out-of-plane lattice measurements confirm that the ferromagnetic phase nucleates from the surface during the heating process and is retained at the surface below the transition temperature during the cooling process. These results suggest that surface strain relief fosters nucleation of the ferromagnetic phase.

AB Quantum dots (QDs) and Fe3O4 nanoparticles were conjugated onto the surfaces of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for medical diagnosis and treatment. The nanoassembly was designed to meet the specific needs in cancer in vivo imaging and simultaneous treatment. The key functionalities needed for clinical applications were integrated, including CNT surface functionalization for attachment of biological molecules in targeting, drug storage capabilities, fluorescent emissions near the infrared range, and magnetic hyperthermia. CNT-QD-Fe3O4 developed exhibited a strong fluorescence near the infrared region for noninvasive optical in vivo imaging. Magnetization measurements showed nearly reversible hysteresis curves from CNT-QD-Fe3O4 nanoassembly. Fe3O4 conjugated CNT was found to experience hyperthermia heating under alternating electromagnetic field.

AB Millimeter-sized single crystals of LaFeAsO, LaFeAsO1-xFx, and LaFe1-xCoxAsO were grown in NaAs flux at ambient pressure. The detailed growth procedure and crystal characterizations are reported. The as-grown crystals have typical dimensions of 3x4x0.05-0.3 mm(3) with the crystallographic c-axis perpendicular to the plane of the platelike single crystals. Various characterizations confirmed the high quality of our LaFeAsO crystals. Co and F were introduced into the lattice leading to superconducting LaFe1-xCoxAsO and LaFeAsO1-xFx single crystals, respectively. This growth protocol is expected to be broadly applicable to grow other RMAsO (R=rare earth, M=transition metal) compounds.

AB Polycrystalline Ag, Ag(20)Au(80), Ag(40)Au(60), Ag(80)Au(20) and Au samples were bombarded with 15 keV Ar(+) at 60 degrees incidence and the resulting secondary neutral yield distribution was studied by non-resonant laser postionisation mass spectrometry. Neutral clusters containing up to 21 atoms were observed for the targets. The yield of neutral clusters, Ag(m)Au(n) (m), containing n atoms, Y(n), was found to follow a power in n, i.e. Y(n) proportional to n (delta), where the exponent delta varied from 3.2 to 4.0. For a fixed n, the cluster yields showed a variation with number of gold atoms similar to that expected for a binomial distribution. In addition, the cluster compositions from the sputtered alloys were indicative of sputtering from a gold rich surface. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Background: Combating the action of plant pathogenic microorganisms by mycoparasitic fungi has been announced as an attractive biological alternative to the use of chemical fungicides since two decades. The fungal genus Trichoderma includes a high number of taxa which are able to recognize, combat and finally besiege and kill their prey. Only fragments of the biochemical processes related to this ability have been uncovered so far, however.
Results: We analyzed genome-wide gene expression changes during the begin of physical contact between Trichoderma atroviride and two plant pathogens Botrytis cinerea and Rhizoctonia solani, and compared with gene expression patterns of mycelial and conidiating cultures, respectively. About 3000 ESTs, representing about 900 genes, were obtained from each of these three growth conditions. 66 genes, represented by 442 ESTs, were specifically and significantly overexpressed during onset of mycoparasitism, and the expression of a subset thereof was verified by expression analysis. The upregulated genes comprised 18 KOG groups, but were most abundant from the groups representing posttranslational processing, and amino acid metabolism, and included components of the stress response, reaction to nitrogen shortage, signal transduction and lipid catabolism. Metabolic network analysis confirmed the upregulation of the genes for amino acid biosynthesis and of those involved in the catabolism of lipids and aminosugars.
Conclusion: The analysis of the genes overexpressed during the onset of mycoparasitism in T. atroviride has revealed that the fungus reacts to this condition with several previously undetected physiological reactions. These data enable a new and more comprehensive interpretation of the physiology of mycoparasitism, and will aid in the selection of traits for improvement of biocontrol strains by recombinant techniques.

AB If carbon dioxide stored in deep saline aquifers were to leak into an overlying aquifer containing potable groundwater, the intruding CO2 would change the geochemical conditions and cause secondary effects mainly induced by changes in pH. In particular, hazardous trace elements such as lead and arsenic, which are present in the aquifer host rock, could be mobilized. In an effort to evaluate the potential risks to potable water quality, reactive transport simulations were conducted to evaluate to what extent and mechanisms through which lead and arsenic might be mobilized by intrusion of CO2. An earlier geochemical evaluation of more than 38,000 groundwater quality analyses from aquifers throughout the United States and an associated literature review provided the basis for setting up a reactive transport model and examining its sensitivity to model variation. The evaluation included identification of potential mineral hosts containing hazardous trace elements, characterization of the modal bulk mineralogy for an arenaceous aquifer, and augmentation of the required thermodynamic data. The reactive transport simulations suggest that CO2 ingress into a shallow aquifer can mobilize significant lead and arsenic, contaminating the groundwater near the location of intrusion and further downstream. Although substantial increases in aqueous concentrations are predicted compared to the background values, the maximum permitted concentration for arsenic in drinking water was exceeded in only a few cases, whereas that for lead was never exceeded.

The coating was obtained by spraying slurries consisting of mixtures of Fe powder and Al powder with 3-5 mu m diameter onto porous FeAl support and then sintered at 1100 degrees C. The performances of the coating were compared in terms of thickness, pore diameter and permeability. With an increase in the coating thickness up to 200 mu m, the changes of maximum pore size decreased from 23.6 mu m to 5.9 mu m and the permeability decreased from 184.2 m(3) m(-2) kPa(-1) h(-1) to 76.2 m(3) m(-2) kPa(-1) h(-1), respectively, for a sintering temperature equal to 1100 degrees C. The composite membranes have potential application for excellent filters in severe environments. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB A key performance limitation in polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFC), manifested in terms of mass transport loss, originates from liquid water transport and resulting flooding phenomena in the constituent components. Liquid water covers the electrochemically active sites in the catalyst layer (CL) rendering reduced catalytic activity and blocks the available pore space in the porous CL and fibrous gas diffusion layer (GDL) resulting in hindered oxygen transport to the active reaction sites. The cathode CL and the GDL play a major role in the mass transport loss and hence in the water management of a PEFC. In this work the development of a mesoscopic modeling formalism coupled with realistic microstructural delineation is presented to study the influence of the pore structure and surface wettability on liquid water transport and interfacial dynamics in the PEFC catalyst layer and gas diffusion layer. The two-phase regime transition phenomenon in the capillary dominated transport in the CL and the influence of the mixed wetting characteristics on the flooding dynamics in the GDL are highlighted.

AB Most electronic structure methods express the wavefunction as ail expansion of N-electron basis functions that are chosen to be either Slater determinants or configuration state functions. Although the expansion coefficient of a single determinant may be readily computed from configuration state function coefficients for small wavefunction expansions, traditional algorithms are impractical for systems with a large number of electrons and spatial orbitals. In this work, we describe an efficient algorithm for the evaluation of a single determinant expansion coefficient for wavefunctions expanded as a linear combination of graphically contracted functions. Each graphically contracted function has significant multiconfigurational character and depends on a relatively small number of variational parameters called arc factors. Because the graphically contracted function approach expresses the configuration state function coefficients as products of are factors, a determinant expansion coefficient may be computed recursively more efficiently than with traditional configuration interaction methods. Although the cost of computing determinant coefficients scales exponentially with the number of spatial orbitals for traditional methods, the algorithm presented here exploits two levels of recursion and scales polynomially with system size. Hence, as demonstrated through applications to systems with hundreds of electrons and orbitals, it may readily be applied to very large systems. (C) 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

AB We Study the semi-inclusive hadron production in deep inelastic scattering at small-x. A transverse-momentum-dependent factorization is found consistent with the results calculated in the small-x approaches, such as the color-dipole framework and the color glass condensate, in the appropriate kinematic region at the lowest order. The transverse-momentum-dependent quark distribution can be studied in this process as a probe for the small-x saturation physics. Especially, the ratio of quark distributions as a function of transverse momentum at different x demonstrates strong dependence on the saturation scale. The Q(2) dependence of the same ratio is also studied by applying the Collins-Soper-Sterman resummation method. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The p90 ribosomal protein kinase 2 (RSK2) is a highly expressed Ser/Thr kinase activated by growth factors and is involved in cancer cell proliferation and tumor promoter-induced cell transformation. RSK2 possesses two non-identical kinase domains, and the structure of its N-terminal domain (NTD), which is responsible for phosphorylation of a variety of substrates, is unknown. The crystal structure of the NTD RSK2 was determined at 1.8 angstrom resolution in complex with AMP-PNP. The N-terminal kinase domain adopted a unique active conformation showing a significant structural diversity of the kinase domain compared to other kinases. The NTD RSK2 possesses a three-stranded beta B-sheet inserted in the N-terminal lobe, resulting in displacement of the alpha C-helix and disruption of the Lys-Glu interaction, classifying the kinase conformation as inactive. The purified protein was phosphorylated at Ser227 in the T-activation loop and exhibited in vitro kinase activity. A key characteristic is the appearance of a new contact between Lys216 (beta B-sheet) and the beta-phosphate of AMP-PNP. Mutation of this lysine to alanine impaired both NTDs in vitro and full length RSK2 ex vivo activity, emphasizing the importance of this interaction. Even though the N-terminal lobe undergoes structural re-arrangement, it possesses an intact hydrophobic groove formed between the alpha C-helix, the beta 4-strand, and the beta B-sheet junction, which is occupied by the N-terminal tail. The presence of a unique beta B-sheet insert in the N-lobe suggests a different type of activation mechanism for RSK2.

AB We present a straightforward method for the inclusion of quantum nuclear vibrational effects in molecular dynamics calculations of shock Hugoniot temperatures. Using a Gruumlneisen equation of state and a quasiharmonic approximation to the vibrational energies, we derive a simple, postprocessing method for calculation of the quantum corrected Hugoniot temperatures. We have used our novel technique on ab initio simulations of shock compressed water and methane. Our results indicate significantly closer agreement with all available experimental temperature data for these two systems. Our formalism can be easily applied to a number of different shock compressed molecular liquids or solids, and has the potential to decrease the large uncertainties inherent in many experimental Hugoniot temperature measurements of these systems.

AB We demonstrate experimentally and numerically that the application of a partially coherent beam (PCB) in combination with time averaging leads to a significant reduction in the scintillation index. We use a simplified experimental approach in which the atmospheric turbulence is simulated by a phase diffuser. The role of the speckle size, the amplitude of the phase modulation and the strength of the atmospheric turbulence are examined. We obtain good agreement between our numerical simulations and our experimental results. This study provides a useful foundation for future applications of PCB-based methods of scintillation reduction in physical atmospheres.

ID DIFFERENTIAL CROSS-SECTIONS; PHOTO-DOUBLE-IONIZATION
AB Non-perturbative time-dependent close-coupling calculations are carried out for the double photoionization of helium including both dipole and quadrupole radiation effects. At a photon energy of 800 eV, accessible at current synchrotron light sources, the quadrupole interaction contributes around 6% to the total integral double photoionization cross section. The pure quadrupole single energy differential cross section shows a local maximum at equal energy sharing, as opposed to the minimum found in the pure dipole single energy differential cross section. The sum of the pure dipole and pure quadrupole single energy differentials is insensitive to non-dipole effects at 800 eV. However, the triple differential cross section at equal energy sharing of the two ejected electrons shows strong non-dipole effects due to the quadrupole interaction that may be experimentally observable.

The measured laser power dependence of the highly charged ions indicates that the multiple ionization proceeds via the sequential stripping of electrons.

AB Gravity waves arise in gravitationally stratified compressible flows at low Mach and Froude numbers, and these waves impose a sharp restriction on the time step. This paper presents a filtering strategy for the fully compressible equations based on normal-mode analysis that is used throughout the simulation to compute the fast dynamics and is able to damp only chosen modes. This method is based on an asymptotic analysis and respects the dynamics of gravity waves for thin layers. Finally, the filtering method is tested on a series of examples.

LA English
DT Article
DE adaptive mesh refinement; Darcy flow; porous media
ID HYPERBOLIC CONSERVATION-LAWS; REFINEMENT; SIMULATION
AB In this paper, we present a second-order accurate adaptive algorithm for solving multi-phase, incompressible flow in porous media. We assume a multi-phase form of Darcy's law with relative permeabilities given as a function of the phase saturation. The remaining equations express conservation of mass for the fluid constituents. In this setting, the total velocity, defined to be the sum of the phase velocities, is divergence free. The basic integration method is based on a total-velocity splitting approach in which we solve a second-order elliptic pressure equation to obtain a total velocity. This total velocity is then used to recast component conservation equations as nonlinear hyperbolic equations. Our approach to adaptive refinement uses a nested hierarchy of logically rectangular grids with simultaneous refinement of the grids in both space and time. The integration algorithm on the grid hierarchy is a recursive procedure in which coarse grids are advanced in time, fine grids are advanced multiple steps to reach the same time as the coarse grids and the data at different levels are then synchronized. The single-grid algorithm is described briefly, but the emphasis here is on the time-stepping procedure for the adaptive hierarchy. Numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the algorithm's accuracy and convergence properties and to illustrate the behaviour of the method.

AB Cyanobacteria harvest light for photosynthesis using photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes called phycobilisomes (PBSs). Lyases are enzymes responsible for covalent attachment of light-absorbing chromophores to the phycobiliproteins (PBPs) contained in PBSs. We isolated a pigmentation mutant in the filamentous cyanobacterium Fremyella diplosiphon and determined that it possesses an insertional mutation in cpcF, which encodes one component of a heterodimeric phycocyanin lyase. Here, we discuss the implications of the mutation in cpcF on light-dependent pigmentation and Morphology responses characteristic of complementary chromatic adaptation in F diplosiphon. Although cpcF encodes a phycocyanin lyase, significant decreases in the levels of all classes of PBPs are associated with CpcF deficiency in F. diplosiphon. Notably, CpcF deficiency has a limited effect on the shape of F diplosiphon cells, but significantly impacts filament length. Possible mechanisms for the broad impact of CpcF deficiency on pigmentation and filament morphology are discussed. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.

ID GROWING NETWORKS; TREES
AB We study structural properties of trees grown by preferential attachment. In this mechanism, nodes are added sequentially and attached to existing nodes at a rate that is strictly proportional to the degree. We classify nodes by their depth n, defined as the distance from the root of the tree, and find that the network is strongly stratified. Most notably, the distribution f(k)((n)) of nodes with degree k at depth n has a power-law tail, f(k)((n)) similar to k(-gamma(n)). The exponent grows linearly with depth, gamma(n) = 2 + n-1/< n-1 > , where the brackets denote an average over all nodes. Therefore, nodes that are closer to the root are better connected, and moreover, the degree distribution strongly varies with depth. Similarly, the in-component size distribution has a power-law tail and the characteristic exponent grows linearly with depth. Qualitatively, these behaviors extend to a class of networks that grow by redirection.

AB We highlight an interesting mapping between the moving breather solutions of the generalized nonlinear Schrodinger (NLS) equations and the static solutions of neutral scalar field theories. Using this connection, we then obtain several new moving breather solutions of the cubic-quintic NLS equation both with and without uniform phase in space. The stability of some stationary solutions is investigated numerically and the results are confirmed via dynamical evolution.

TI Search for the Associated Production of the Standard-Model Higgs Boson
in the All-Hadronic Channel
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID P(P)OVER-BAR COLLISIONS; TEV; PHYSICS
AB We report on a search for the standard-model Higgs boson in pp collisions at s=1.96 TeV using an integrated luminosity of 2.0 fb(-1). We look for production of the Higgs boson decaying to a pair of bottom quarks in association with a vector boson V (W or Z) decaying to quarks, resulting in a four-jet final state. Two of the jets are required to have secondary vertices consistent with B-hadron decays. We set the first 95% confidence level upper limit on the VH production cross section with V(-> qq/qq('))H(-> bb) decay for Higgs boson masses of 100-150 GeV/c(2) using data from run II at the Fermilab Tevatron. For m(H)=120 GeV/c(2), we exclude cross sections larger than 38 times the standard-model prediction.

ID GAMMA-RAYS; TELESCOPE; DETECTOR; JETS
AB Point source searches with the IceCube neutrino telescope have been restricted to one hemisphere, due to the exclusive selection of upward going events as a way of rejecting the atmospheric muon background. We show that the region above the horizon can be included by suppressing the background through energy-sensitive cuts. This improves the sensitivity above PeV energies, previously not accessible for declinations of more than a few degrees below the horizon due to the absorption of neutrinos in Earth. We present results based on data collected with 22 strings of IceCube, extending its field of view and energy reach for point source searches. No significant excess above the atmospheric background is observed in a sky scan and in tests of source candidates. Upper limits are reported, which for the first time cover point sources in the southern sky up to EeV energies.

TI Shock Compression of Quartz to 1.6 TPa: Redefining a Pressure Standard
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID EQUATION-OF-STATE; HYDROGEN; ALUMINUM; DENSITY
AB Evaluation of models and theory of high-pressure material response is largely made through comparison with shock wave data, which rely on impedance match standards. The recent use of quartz as a shock wave standard has prompted a need for improved data. We report here on measurements of the quartz Hugoniot curve from 0.1-1.6 TPa. The new data, in agreement with our ab initio calculations, reveal substantial errors in the standard and have immediate ramifications for the equations of state of deuterium, helium, and carbon at pressures relevant to giant planets and other high-energy density conditions.

TI Surface-Stabilized Nonferromagnetic Ordering of a Layered Ferromagnetic
Manganite
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS

DT Article
ID PLANE-WAVE METHOD; MAGNETORESISTIVE OXIDES; INSULATOR-TRANSITION;
CRYSTAL; CHARGE; SPIN
AB An outstanding question regarding the probing or possible device applications of correlated electronic materials (CEMs) with layered structure is the extent to which their bulk and surface properties differ or not. The broken translational symmetry at the surface can lead to distinct functionality due to the charge, lattice, orbital, and spin coupling. Here we report on the case of bilayered manganites with hole doping levels corresponding to bulk ferromagnetic order. We find that, although the hole doping level is measured to be the same as in the bulk, the surface layer is not ferromagnetic. Further, our low-energy electron diffraction and x-ray measurements show that there is a c-axis collapse in the outermost layer. Bulk theoretical calculations reveal that, even at fixed doping level, the relaxation of the Jahn-Teller distortion at the surface is consistent with the stabilization of an A-type antiferromagnetic state.

TI Generalized Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij Distribution and Envelope Equation
for High-Intensity Beams in a Coupled Transverse Focusing Lattice
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
AB In an uncoupled lattice, the Kapchinskij-Vladimirskij (KV) distribution function first analyzed in 1959 is the only known exact solution of the nonlinear Vlasov-Maxwell equations for high-intensity beams including self-fields in a self-consistent manner. The KV solution is generalized here to high-intensity beams in a coupled transverse lattice using the recently developed generalized Courant-Snyder invariant for coupled transverse dynamics. This solution projects to a rotating, pulsating elliptical beam in transverse configuration space, determined by the generalized matrix envelope equation.

ID EPITAXIAL GRAPHENE; GRAPHITE
AB Angle-resolved photoemission and x-ray diffraction experiments show that multilayer epitaxial graphene grown on the SiC(0001) surface is a new form of carbon that is composed of effectively isolated graphene sheets. The unique rotational stacking of these films causes adjacent graphene layers to electronically decouple leading to a set of nearly independent linearly dispersing bands (Dirac cones) at the graphene K point. Each cone corresponds to an individual macroscale graphene sheet in a multilayer stack where AB-stacked sheets can be considered as low density faults.

TI Band Gap Narrowing of Titanium Oxide Semiconductors by Noncompensated
Anion-Cation Codoping for Enhanced Visible-Light Photoactivity

AB "Noncompensated n-p codoping" is established as an enabling concept for enhancing the visible-light photoactivity of TiO(2) by narrowing its band gap. The concept embodies two crucial ingredients: The electrostatic attraction within the n-p dopant pair enhances both the thermodynamic and kinetic solubilities, and the noncompensated nature ensures the creation of tunable intermediate bands that effectively narrow the band gap. The concept is demonstrated using first-principles calculations, and is validated by direct measurements of band gap narrowing using scanning tunneling spectroscopy, dramatically redshifted optical absorbance, and enhanced photoactivity manifested by efficient electron-hole separation in the visible-light region. This concept is broadly applicable to the synthesis of other advanced functional materials that demand optimal dopant control.

AB The accuracy with which vertical profiles of aerosol extinction sigma(ep)(lambda) can be measured using routine Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program (ARM) Climate Research Facility (ACRF) measurements and was assessed using data from two airborne field campaigns, the ARM Aerosol Intensive Operation Period (AIOP, May 2003), and the Aerosol Lidar Validation Experiment (ALIVE, September 2005). This assessment pertains to the aerosol at its ambient concentration and thermodynamic state (i.e., sigma(ep)(lambda) either free of or corrected for sampling artifacts) and includes the following ACRF routine methods: Raman lidar, micropulse lidar (MPL), and in situ aerosol profiles (IAP) with a small aircraft. Profiles of aerosol optical depth tau(p)(lambda), from which the profiles of sigma(ep)(lambda) are derived through vertical differentiation, were measured by the NASA Ames Airborne Tracking 14-channel Sun photometer (AATS-14); these data were used as benchmark in this evaluation. The ACRF IAP sigma(ep)(550 nm) were lower by 11% (during AIOP) and higher by 1% (during ALIVE) when compared to AATS-14. The ACRF MPL sigma(ep)(523 nm) measurements were higher by 24% (AIOP) and 19-21% (ALIVE) compared to AATS-14, but the correlation improved significantly during ALIVE. In the AIOP, a second MPL operated by NASA showed a smaller positive bias (13%) with respect to AATS-14. The ACRF Raman lidar sigma(ep)(355 nm) measurements were larger by 54% (AIOP) and by 6% (ALIVE) compared to AATS-14. The large bias in the Raman lidar measurements during AIOP stemmed from a gradual loss of Raman lidar sensitivity starting about the end of 2001 going unnoticed until after AIOP. A major refurbishment and upgrade of the instrument and improvements to a data processing algorithm led to the significant improvement and very small bias in ALIVE. Finally, we find that during ALIVE the Raman lidar water vapor densities rho(w) are 8% larger when compared to AATS-14, whereas in situ measured rho(w) aboard two different aircraft are smaller than the AATS-14 values by 0.3-3%.

application to denitrification in soils
SO JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH-BIOGEOSCIENCES
LA English
DT Article
ID NITROUS-OXIDE; CHEMICAL-REACTIONS; ACTIVATED COMPLEX; NITRIFICATION
AB The theoretical formulation of biological kinetic isotope fractionation often assumes first-order or Michaelis-Menten kinetics, the latter solved under the quasi-steady state assumption. Both formulations lead to a constant isotope fractionation factor, therefore they may return incorrect estimations of isotopic effects and misleading interpretations of isotopic signatures when fractionation is not a steady process. We have analyzed the isotopic signature of denitrification in biogeochemical soil systems by Menyailo and Hungate (2006) in which high and variable (15)N-N(2)O enrichment during N(2)O production and inverse isotope fractionation during N(2)O consumption could not be explained with first-order kinetics and the Rayleigh equation, or with Michaelis-Menten kinetics. When Michaelis-Menten kinetics were coupled to Monod kinetics to describe biomass and enzyme dynamics, and the quasi-steady state assumption was relaxed, transient Michaelis-Menten-Monod kinetics accurately reproduced the observed concentrations, and variable and inverse isotope fractionations. These results imply a substantial revision in modeling isotopic effects, suggesting that steady state kinetics such as first-order, Rayleigh, and classic Michaelis-Menten kinetics should be superseded by transient kinetics in conjunction with biomass and enzyme dynamics.

AB The rotational spectrum of the argon-tropolone van der Waals complex in the ground vibrational state has been measured in the frequency range of 6-17 GHz using a pulsed-jet, Balle-Flygare-type Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. Eighty-six transitions for the complex (Ar-(C7H6O2)-C-12-O-16) were observed, assigned, and fit using a Watson A-reduction Hamiltonian giving the rotational and centrifugal distortion constants A = 1080.4365(3) MHz, B = 883.4943(3) MHz, C = 749.057](2) MHz, Delta(J) = 2.591(2) kHz, Delta(JK) = -3.32(1) kHz, Delta(K) = 5.232(9) kHz, delta(J) = 0.944(1) kHz, and delta(K) = -0.028(8) kHz. The tunneling motion of the hydroxyl proton in the tropolone moiety is quenched in the ground electronic state by complexation with argon. The coordinates of the argon atom in the monomer's principal axis system are a = 0.43 angstrom, b = 0.23 angstrom, and c 3.48 angstrom.

TI Photoelectron Angular Distributions and Cross Section Ratios of
Two-Color Two-Photon Above Threshold Ionization of Argon
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY A
LA English
DT Article
ID ELECTRONS; PHOTOIONIZATION; SCATTERING; LIGHT; WAVE
AB Anisotropy parameters and cross section ratios of two-color two-photon above threshold ionization sidebands from argon are measured using photoelectron velocity map imaging with the selected 13th or 15th high-order harmonics in a perturbative 800 nm dressing field. A new data analysis technique determines accurate anisotropy parameters of the photoelectron angular distributions for each sideband by subtracting a sequence of percentages of the single-photon ionization background from the above threshold ionization signal to correct for the angular averaging of overlapping photoelectron energies. The results provide a fundamental test of theoretical predictions based on second-order perturbation theory with a one-electron model and the soft-photon approximation and show agreement with theory for the cross section ratios. However, discrepancies between the theoretically predicted and experimentally determined photoelectron angular distributions demonstrate the need for a more comprehensive theoretical description of two-color two-photon above threshold ionization.

Static electric fields less than 1 kV/cm are sufficient to mix the most closely spaced Lambda-dpublets in the A state, leading to Stark spectra with both new and shifted resonances. Simulations of the saturation-dip Stark spectral line profiles allow extraction of the A-state permanent electric dipole moment with a magnitude of 0.06 +/- 0.02 D.

AB Many efforts have been directed toward the enhancement of electron transport in dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) using one-dimensional nanoarchitectured semiconductors. However, the improvement resulting from these ordered 1-D nanostructured electrodes is often offset or diminished by the deterioration in other device parameters intrinsically associated with the use of these 1-D nanostrucutres, such as the two-sided effect of the length of the nanowires impacting the series resistance and roughness factor. In this work, we mitigate this problem by allocating part of the roughness factor to the collecting anode instead of imparting all the roughness factors onto the semiconductor layer attached to the anode. A microscopically rough Zn microtip array is used as ail electron-collecting anode on which ZnO nanotips are grown to serve as the semiconductor component of the DSSC. For the same surface roughness factor, our Zn-microtip vertical bar ZnO-nanotip DSSC exhibits an enhanced fill factor compared with DSSCs that have ZnO nanowires Supported by a planar anode. In addition, the open-circuit voltage of the Zn-microtip vertical bar ZnO-nanotip DSSC is also improved due to a favorable band shift at the Zn-ZnO interface, which raises the Fermi level of the semiconductor and consequently enlarges the energy gap between the quasi-Fermi level of ZnO and the redox species. With these improvements, the overall efficiency becomes 1.4% with ail open-circuit voltage of 770 mV, while the surface roughness factor of ZnO is approximately 60. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopic study reveals that the electron collection time is much shorter than the electron lifetime, suggesting that fast electron collection occurs in our device due to the significantly reduced electron collection distance along the short ZnO nanotips. The overall improvement demonstrates a new approach to enhance the efficiency of dye-sensitized solar cells.

AB Light is necessary for photosynthesis, but its absorption by pigment molecules such as chlorophyll can cause severe oxidative damage and result in cell death. The excess absorption of light energy by photosynthetic pigments has led to the evolution of protective mechanisms that operate on the timescale of seconds to minutes and involve feedback-regulated de-excitation of chlorophyll molecules in photosystem II (qE). Despite the significant contribution of eukaryotic algae to global primary production(1), little is known about their qE mechanism, in contrast to that in flowering plants(2,3). Here we show that a qE-deficient mutant of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, npq4, lacks two of the three genes encoding LHCSR (formerly called LI818). This protein is an ancient member of the light-harvesting complex superfamily, and orthologues are found throughout photosynthetic eukaryote taxa(4), except in red algae and vascular plants. The qE capacity of Chlamydomonas is dependent on environmental conditions and is inducible by growth under high light conditions. We show that the fitness of the npq4 mutant in a shifting light environment is reduced compared to wild-type cells, demonstrating that LHCSR is required for survival in a dynamic light environment. Thus, these data indicate that plants and algae use different proteins to dissipate harmful excess light energy and protect the photosynthetic apparatus from damage.

AB Deletion of 11q23-q24 is frequent in a diverse variety of malignancies, including breast and colorectal carcinoma, implicating the presence of a tumor suppressor gene at that chromosomal region. We examined a 6-Mb region on 11q23 by high-resolution deletion mapping, using both loss of heterozygosity analysis and customized microarray comparative genomic hybridization. LARG (leukemia-associated Rho guanine-nucleotide exchange factor) (also called ARHGEF12), identified from the analysed region, is frequently underexpressed in breast and colorectal carcinomas with a reduced expression observed in all breast cancer cell lines (n = 11), in 12 of 38 (32%) primary breast cancers, 5 of 10 (50%) colorectal cell lines and in 20 of 37 (54%) primary colorectal cancers. Underexpression of the LARG transcript was significantly associated with genomic loss (P = 0.00334). Hypermethylation of the LARG promoter was not detected in either breast or colorectal cancer, and treatment of four breast and four colorectal cancer cell lines with 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine and/or trichostatin A did not result in a reactivation of LARG. Enforced expression of LARG in breast and colorectal cancer cells by stable transfection resulted in reduced cell proliferation and colony formation, as well as in a markedly slower cell migration rate in colorectal cancer cells, providing functional evidence for LARG as a candidate tumor suppressor gene.

AB We report that mild oxidation of Ti foils in air results in brookite-rich titanium oxide (TiO2) films with similar spectral response to that of dye-sensitized TiO2. X-ray powder diffraction and Raman spectroscopy show that the onset of brookite formation occurs at 500 degrees C, and the material is characterized by a strong absorption band in the visible spectral range. The first-principle calculations show that enhanced visible light absorption correlates with the presence of Ti interstitials. Photocurrent density measurements of water splitting reveal that the brookite-rich TiO2 exhibits the highest photocatalytic performance among the different forms of TiO2 produced by oxidation of Ti foils. With increasing oxidation temperature transformation to the rutile phase accompanied by declining visible range photoactivity is observed. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB Background: Global gene expression profiling by DNA microarrays is an invaluable tool in biological research. However, existing labeling methods are time consuming and costly and therefore often limit the scale of microarray experiments and sample throughput. Here we introduce a new, fast, inexpensive method for direct random-primed fluorescent labeling of eukaryotic cDNA for gene expression analysis and compare the results obtained on the NimbleGen microarray platform with two other widely-used labeling methods, namely the NimbleGen-recommended double-stranded cDNA protocol and the indirect (aminoallyl) method.
Results: Two total RNA samples were labeled with each method and hybridized to NimbleGen expression arrays. Although all methods tested here provided similar global results and biological conclusions, the new direct random-primed cDNA labeling method provided slightly better correlation between replicates compared to the other methods and thus increased ability to find statistically significant differentially expressed genes.
Conclusion: The new direct random-primed cDNA labeling method introduced here is suitable for gene expression microarrays and provides a rapid, inexpensive alternative to existing methods. Using NimbleGen microarrays, the method produced excellent results comparable to those obtained with other methods. However, the simplicity and cost-effectiveness of the new method allows for increased sample throughput in microarray experiments and makes the process amenable to automation with a relatively simple liquid handling system.

AB During meiosis, each chromosome must pair with its unique homologous partner, a process that usually culminates with the formation of the synaptonemal complex (SC). In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, special regions on each chromosome known as pairing centers are essential for both homologous pairing and synapsis. We report that during early meiosis, pairing centers establish transient connections to the cytoplasmic microtubule network. These connections through the intact nuclear envelope require the SUN/KASH domain protein pair SUN-1 and ZYG-12. Disruption of microtubules inhibits chromosome pairing, indicating that these connections promote interhomolog interactions. Dynein activity is essential to license formation of the SC once pairing has been accomplished, most likely by overcoming a barrier imposed by the chromosome-nuclear envelope connection. Our findings thus provide insight into how homolog pairing is accomplished in meiosis and into the mechanisms regulating synapsis so that it occurs selectively between homologs.

AB The change in structure of glassy GeS2 with pressure increasing to similar or equal to 5 GPa at ambient temperature was explored by using in situ neutron and x-ray diffraction. Under ambient conditions, the glass structure is made from a mixture of corner-and edge-sharing Ge(S-1/2)(4) tetrahedra where 47(5)% of the Ge atoms are involved in edge-sharing configurations. The network formed by these tetrahedra orders on an intermediate range as manifested by the appearance of a pronounced first sharp diffraction peak in the measured total structure factors at a scattering vector k = 1.02(2) angstrom(-1) which has a large contribution from Ge-Ge correlations. The intermediate range order breaks down when the pressure on the glass increases above approximate to 2 GPa but there does not appear to be a significant alteration of the Ge-S coordination number or corresponding bond length with increasing density. The results for the glass are consistent with a densification mechanism in which there is a replacement of edge-sharing by corner-sharing Ge centred tetrahedral motifs and/or a reduction in the Ge-(S) over cap -Ge bond angle between corner-sharing tetrahedral motifs with increasing pressure. The change in structure with increasing temperature at a pressure of similar or equal to 5 GPa was also investigated by means of in situ x-ray diffraction as the glass crystallized and then liquefied. At 5.2(1) GPa and 828(50) K the system forms a tetragonal crystal, with space group I (4) over bar 2d and cell parameters a = b = 4.97704(12) and c = 9.5355(4) angstrom, wherein corner-sharing Ge(S-1/2)(4) tetrahedra pack to form a dense three-dimensional network. A method is described for correcting x-ray diffraction data taken in situ under high pressure, high temperature conditions for a cylindrical sample, container and gasket geometry with a parallel incident beam and with a scattered beam that is defined using an oscillating radial collimator. A method is also outlined for obtaining coordination numbers from direct integration of the peaks in measured x-ray total pair distribution functions.

AB The challenge of chemistry in the 21st century is to achieve 100% selectivity of the desired product molecule in multipath reactions ("green chemistry") and develop renewable energy based processes. Surface chemistry and catalysis play key roles in this enterprise. Development of in situ surface techniques such as high-pressure scanning tunneling microscopy, sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy, time-resolved Fourier transform infrared methods, and ambient pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy enabled the rapid advancement of three fields: nanocatalysts, biointerfaces, and renewable energy conversion chemistry. In materials nanoscience, synthetic methods have been developed to produce monodisperse metal and oxide nanoparticles (NPs) in the 0.8-10 nm range with controlled shape, oxidation states, and composition; these NPs, can be used as selective catalysts since chemical selectivity appears to be dependent on all of these experimental parameters. New spectroscopic and microscopic techniques have been developed that operate under reaction conditions and reveal the dynamic change of molecular structure of catalysts and adsorbed molecules as the reactions proceed with changes in reaction intermediates, catalyst composition, and oxidation states. SFG vibrational spectroscopy detects amino acids, peptides, and proteins adsorbed at hydrophobic and hydrophilic interfaces and monitors the change of surface structure and interactions with coadsorbed water. Exothermic reactions and photons generate hot electrons in metal NPs that may be utilized in chemical energy conversion. The photosplitting of water and carbon dioxide, an important research direction in renewable energy conversion, is discussed.

AB We show that nanocrystals (NCs) with well-established synthetic protocols for high shape and size monodispersity can be used as templates to independently control the NC composition through successive cation exchange reactions. Chemical transformations like cation exchange reactions overcome a limitation in traditional colloidal synthesis, where the NC shape often reflects the inherent symmetry of the underlying lattice. Specifically we show that full or partial interconversion between wurtzite CdS, chalcocite Cu(2)S, and rock salt PbS NCs can occur while preserving anisotropic shapes unique to the as-synthesized materials. The exchange reactions are driven by disparate solubilites between the two cations by using ligands that preferentially coordinate to either monovalent or divalent transition metals. Starting with CdS, highly anisotropic PbS nanorods are created, which serve as an important material for studying strong two-dimensional quantum confinement, as well as for optoelectronic applications. In NC heterostructures containing segments of different materials, the exchange reaction can be made highly selective for just one of the components of the heterostructure. Thus, through precise control over ion insertion and removal, we can obtain interesting CdSlPbS heterostructure nanorods, where the spatial arrangement of materials is controlled through an intermediate exchange reaction.

AB In this paper, we examine the key factors influencing ductile failure of various grades of dual phase (DP) steels using the microstructure-based modeling approach. Various microstructure-based finite element models are generated based on the actual microstructures of DP steels with different martensite volume fractions. These models are, then, used to investigate the influence of ductility of the constituent ferrite phase and also the influence of voids introduced in the ferrite phase on the overall ductility of DP steels. It is found that with volume fraction of martensite in the microstructure less than 15%, the overall ductility of the DP steels strongly depends on the ductility of the ferrite matrix, hence pre-existing micro-voids in the microstructure significantly reduce the overall ductility of the steel. When the volume fraction of martensite is above 15%, the pre-existing voids in the ferrite matrix does not significantly reduce the overall ductility of the DP steels, and the overall ductility is more influenced by the mechanical property disparity between the two phases. The applicability of the phase inhomogeneity driven ductile failure of DIP steels is then discussed based on the obtained computational results for various grades of DP steels, and the experimentally obtained scanning electron microscopy (SEM) pictures of the corresponding grades of DP steels near fracture surface are used as evidence for result validations.

AB Interpenetrating Al2O3/Al composites were created by liquid-metal infiltration of 3D periodic ceramic preforms with face-centered-tetragonal symmetry produced by direct-write assembly. Volume-averaged lattice strains in the ceramic phase of the composite were measured by synchrotron X-ray diffraction for various levels of uniaxial compression stresses. Load transfer is found to occur from the metal phase to the ceramic phase, and the magnitude of the effect is in general agreement with simple rule-of-mixtures models. Spatially resolved diffraction measurements show variations in load transfer at two different positions within the composite for the elastic- and damage-deformation regimes, the latter being observed using phase-enhanced synchrotron imaging. The mechanical behavior of these interpenetrating Al2O3/Al composites with face-centered-tetragonal symmetry are compared with previous interpenetrating Al2O3/Al composites with simple-tetragonal symmetry.

AB A zigzag-edged graphene nanoribbon (ZGNR) can be indexed by a width, N, which is the number of parallel trans-polyacetylene-like chains comprising the ribbon. Although ZGNRs with N = 4 or greater have been found to have an antiferromagnetic ground state and a ferromagnetic metastable state, how the ribbon makes the transition from N = 1 (namely, trans-polyacetylene-a one-dimensional, nonmagnetic semiconductor) to the wider ones is unclear. Using hybrid density functional theory, we show that N = 2 (polyacene) can be considered the narrowest ZGNR with an antiferromagnetic insulating ground state and a metastable, metallic ferromagnetic state.

AB Metal and metal oxide nanoparticles supported on high surface area materials are widely used in industry for fuel and chemical production and for environmental pollution control, but preventing nanosized particle sintering has remained a great challenge. In this paper, we report that Ni-Cu alloy nanoparticles can be effectively stabilized in cubic mesostructured silica (SBA-16) following a conventional impregnation and thermal treatment process. The three-dimensional interconnected cage structure of the mesoporous SBA-16 allows good accessibility of reactant gas molecules to the metal nanoparticles and confines these particles within its nanosized cages. This confinement hinders metal nanoparticle migration and sintering under harsh conditions. A new class of regenerable metal-based adsorbents which can remove sulfur impurities from warm syngas stream down to less than 60 parts per billion by volume (ppbv) is described. This same confinement strategy is expected to have impact for minimizing sintering or particle coarsening of nanosized materials employed in other applications.

AB The effects of the interplay between energetic and kinetic factors on the air stability of n-channel organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) were studied using two perylene diimide (PDI) compounds with distinctly different lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) levels. On the basis of the empirical energy level windows, one compound (N,N'-bis(2,2,3,3,4,4,5,5,5-nonafluoropentyl)-3,4:9,10-tetracarboxylic acid diimide (PDI-F): -3.84 eV) is at the onset region for air stability, whereas the other (N,N'-bis(cyclohexyl)-1,7-dicyano-perylene-3,4:9,10-tetracarboxylic acid diimide (PDI-CN2): -4.33 eV) is in the air-stable region. Charge-transport behaviors under an inert atmosphere and in air were investigated as a function of active layer thickness. Charge transport in air was greatly affected by the active layer thickness for both compounds, an effect that has been overlooked so far. The ambient stability of the air-unstable PDI-F TFTs increased significantly for thicknesses over similar to 10 monolayers (ML). Surprisingly, the previously considered "air-stable" PDI-CN2 TFTs were not stable in air if the active layer thickness was less than similar to 4 ML. The molecular packing and orientation of the PDI thin Films were investigated using grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) and near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS). We found that the minimum thickness required for air stability is closely related to the LUMO level, film morphology, and film growth mode.

AB Aerosol-cloud interaction is recognized as one of the key factors influencing cloud properties and precipitation regimes across local, regional, and global scales and remains one of the largest uncertainties in understanding and projecting future climate changes. Deep convective clouds (DCCs) play a crucial role in the general circulation, energy balance, and hydrological cycle of our climate system. The complex aerosol-DCC interactions continue to be puzzling as more "aerosol effects'' unfold, and systematic assessment of such effects is lacking. Here we systematically assess the aerosol effects on isolated DCCs based on cloud-resolving model simulations with spectral bin cloud microphysics. We find a dominant role of vertical wind shear in regulating aerosol effects on isolated DCCs, i.e., vertical wind shear qualitatively determines whether aerosols suppress or enhance convective strength. Increasing aerosols always suppresses convection under strong wind shear and invigorates convection under weak wind shear until this effect saturates at an optimal aerosol loading. We also found that the decreasing rate of convective strength is greater in the humid air than that in the dry air when wind shear is strong. Our findings may resolve some of the seemingly contradictory results among past studies by considering the dominant effect of wind shear. Our results can provide the insights to better parameterize aerosol effects on convection by adding the factor of wind shear to the entrainment term, which could reduce uncertainties associated with aerosol effects on climate forcing.

AB Characterizing net ecosystem exchanges (NEE) of CO2 and sensible and latent heat fluxes in heterogeneous landscapes is difficult, yet critical given expected changes in climate and land use. We report here a measurement and modeling study designed to improve our understanding of surface to atmosphere gas exchanges under very heterogeneous land cover in the mostly agricultural U.S. Southern Great Plains (SGP). We combined three years of site-level, eddy covariance measurements in several of the dominant land cover types with regional-scale climate data from the distributed Mesonet stations and Next Generation Weather Radar precipitation measurements to calibrate a land surface model of trace gas and energy exchanges (isotope-enabled land surface model (ISOLSM)). Yearly variations in vegetation cover distributions were estimated from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer normalized difference vegetation index and compared to regional and subregional vegetation cover type estimates from the U.S. Department of Agriculture census. We first applied ISOLSM at a 250 m spatial scale to account for vegetation cover type and leaf area variations that occur on hundred meter scales. Because of computational constraints, we developed a subsampling scheme within 10 km "macrocells'' to perform these high-resolution simulations. We estimate that the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Climate Research Facility SGP region net CO2 exchange with the local atmosphere was -240, -340, and -270 gC m(-2) yr(-1) (positive toward the atmosphere) in 2003, 2004, and 2005, respectively, with large seasonal variations. We also performed simulations using two scaling approaches at resolutions of 10, 30, 60, and 90 km. The scaling approach applied in current land surface models led to regional NEE biases of up to 50 and 20% in weekly and annual estimates, respectively. An important factor in causing these biases was the complex leaf area index (LAI) distribution within cover types. Biases in predicted weekly average regional latent heat fluxes were smaller than for NEE, but larger than for either ecosystem respiration or assimilation alone. However, spatial and diurnal variations of hundreds of W m(-2) in latent heat fluxes were common. We conclude that, in this heterogeneous system, characterizing vegetation cover type and LAI at the scale of spatial variation are necessary for accurate estimates of bottom-up, regional NEE and surface energy fluxes.

AB The underpinnings of microphase separation in symmetric poly(styrenesulfonate-block-methylbutylene) (PSS-PMB) copolymer melts were examined by Monte Carlo lattice simulations. The main challenge is understanding the effect of ion pairs in the PSS block on thermodynamics. We assume that experimentally determined Flory-Huggins interaction parameters are adequate for describing intermonomer interactions. Our model does not account for either electrostatic or dipolar interactions. This enables comparisons between simulated and experimentally observed microphases reported by Park and Balsara [Macromolecules 2008, 41, 3678] without resorting to any adjustable parameters. The PSS block in both experiments and theory is partially sulfonated. We quantified the effect of sequence distribution on phase behavior by using alternating and blocky PSS chains in the simulations. Depending on temperature and sequence distribution, simulations show performed lamellae, gyroid, and hexagonally packed cylinders in addition to the lamellar phase found in simple symmetric block copolymers that do not contain ions. This is driven by extremely repulsive interactions between styrenesulfonate monomers and the uncharged species in the melts. The symmetry of the microphases and the locations of the order-disorder and order-order phase transitions are in qualitative agreement with experimental observations.

AB The impact of dispersed alkylthiol-modified ZnO nanorods, as a function of rod aspect ratio and concentration, on the shape memory character of a thermoplastic polyurethane with low hard-segment density (LHS-TPU) is examined relative to the enhanced performance occurring for carbon nanofiber (CNF) dispersion. Solution blending resulted in uniform dispersion within the LHS-TPU of the ZnO nanorods at low volume (weight) fractions (< 2.9% v/v (17.75% w/w)). Tensile modulus enhancements were modest though, comparable to values observed for spherical nanofillers. Shape memory characteristics, which in this LHS-TPU result when strain-induced crystallites retard the entropic recovery of the deformed chains, were unchanged for these low volume fraction ZnO nanocomposites. Higher ZnO loadings (12% v/v (50% w/w)) exhibited clustering of ZnO nanorods into a mesh-like structure. Here, tensile modulus and shape recovery characteristics were improved, although not as great as seen for comparable CNF addition. Wide angle X-ray diffraction and NMR revealed that the addition of ZnO nanorods did not impact the inherent strain induced crystallization of the LHS-TPU, which is in contrast to the impact of CNFs and emphasizes the impact of interactions at the polymer-nanoparticle interface. Overall, these findings reinforce the hypothesis that the shape memory properties of polymer nanocomposites are governed by the extent to which nanoparticle addition, via nanoparticle aspect ratio, hierarchical morphology, and interfacial interactions, impacts the molecular mechanism responsible for trapping elastic strain.

AB We report the controlled radical polymerization of 2-vinyl-4,4-dimethyl azlactone (VDMA), a 2-alkenyl-2-oxazolin-5-one monomer that contains a polymerizable vinyl moiety and a highly reactive, pendant azlactone, as well as dilute solution properties and surface attachment and functionalization. Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) was used to polymerize VDMA in benzene at 65 degrees C using either 2-(2-cyanopropyl) dithiobenzoate (CPDB) or 2-dodecylsulfanylthiocarbotlylsulfanyl-2-methylpropionic acid (DMP) as RAFT chain transfer agents (CTAs). The pseudo-first-order kinetics and resultant well-defined polymers of low polydispersity indicate that both CTAs afford control over the RAFT polymerization of VDMA. Dynamic and static light scattering and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) were performed to determine the weight-average molecular weight, radius of gyration, and second virial coefficient of VDMA homopolymers in THF. Additionally, well-defined polymers of VDMA containing carboxyl end groups were covalently attached to epoxy-modified silicon wafers via esterification to produce polymeric scaffolds that can be subsequently functionalized for various bio-inspired applications.

TI Gene Context Analysis in the Integrated Microbial Genomes (IMG) Data

SO PLOS ONE
LA English
DT Article
ID PROTEIN FAMILIES; FUSION EVENTS
AB Computational methods for determining the function of genes in newly sequenced genomes have been traditionally based on sequence similarity to genes whose function has been identified experimentally. Function prediction methods can be extended using gene context analysis approaches such as examining the conservation of chromosomal gene clusters, gene fusion events and co-occurrence profiles across genomes. Context analysis is based on the observation that functionally related genes are often having similar gene context and relies on the identification of such events across phylogenetically diverse collection of genomes. We have used the data management system of the Integrated Microbial Genomes (IMG) as the framework to implement and explore the power of gene context analysis methods because it provides one of the largest available genome integrations. Visualization and search tools to facilitate gene context analysis have been developed and applied across all publicly available archaeal and bacterial genomes in IMG. These computations are now maintained as part of IMG's regular genome content update cycle. IMG is available at: http://img.jgi.doe.gov.

AB Heme nitric oxide/oxygen (H-NOX) proteins are found in eukaryotes where they are typically part of a larger protein such as soluble guanylate cyclase and in prokaryotes where they are often found in operons with a histidine kinase, suggesting that H-NOX proteins serve as sensors for NO and O(2) in signaling pathways. The Fe(II)-NO complex of the H-NOX protein from Shewanella oneidensis inhibits the autophosphorylation of the operon-associated histidine kinase, whereas the ligand-free H-NOX has no effect on the kinase. NMR spectroscopy was used to determine the structures of the Fe(II)-CO complex of the S. oneidensis H-NOX and the Fe(II)-CO complex of the H103G H-NOX mutant as a mimic of the ligand-free and kinase-inhibitory Fe(II)-NO H-NOX, respectively. The results provide a molecular glimpse into the ligand-induced conformational changes that may underlie kinase inhibition and the subsequent control of downstream signaling.

AB High photovoltaic device performance is demonstrated in ambient-air-processed bulk heterojunction solar cells having an active blend layer of organic poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT): [6,6]-phenyl-C(61)-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), with power conversion efficiencies as high as 4.1% which is comparable to state-of-the-art bulk heterojunction devices fabricated in air-free environments. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy is combined with detailed analysis of electronic carrier transport in order to quantitatively understand the effects of oxygen exposure and different thermal treatments on electronic conduction through the highly nanostructured active blend network. Improvement in photovoltaic device performance by suitable post-fabrication thermal processing results from the reduced oxygen charge trap density in the active blend layer and is consistent with a corresponding slight increase in thickness of an similar to 4 nm aluminum oxide hole-blocking layer present at the electron-collecting contact interface.

AB We investigate the compressibility of nanocrystalline tungsten carbide (nano-WC) using synchrotron x-ray diffraction. Nano-WC displays a bulk modulus (452 GPa) comparable to that of diamond; it is 10%-15% larger than previously reported values for bulk WC. This finding is consistent with a generalized model of nanocrystal with a compressed surface layer. The linear bulk moduli of nano-WC along a- and c-axes were determined to be 407 and 546 GPa, respectively. First-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations confirm the experimental observations of an anisotropic linear compressibility and a lower bulk modulus for microsized WC.

AB To improve zinc oxide/poly(3-hexylthiophene) (ZnO/P3HT) hybrid solar cell performance, we introduce a nanocrystalline cadmium sulfide (CdS) film at the ZnO/P3HT heterojunction, creating a cascading energy band structure. Current-voltage characteristics under AM1.5 illumination show that, compared to unmodified ZnO/P3HT devices, CdS modification leads to an approximate doubling of the open-circuit voltage and a mild increase in fill factor, without sacrificing any short-circuit current. These characteristics double the power conversion efficiency for devices with an interfacial CdS layer. External quantum efficiency spectra reveal definite photocurrent contributions from the CdS layer, confirming the cascading band structure. The mechanisms behind open-circuit voltage increase are discussed.

AB Various layers of the retina are well known to alter the polarization state of light. Such changes in polarization may be a sensitive indicator of tissue structure and function, and as such have gained increased clinical attention. Here we demonstrate a polarization-sensitive optical coherence tomography (PS-OCT) system that incorporates adaptive optics (AO) in the sample arm and a single line scan camera in the detection arm. We quantify the benefit of AO for PS-OCT in terms of signal-to-noise, lateral resolution, and speckle size. Double pass phase retardation per unit depth values ranging from 0.25 degrees/mu m to 0.65 degrees/mu m were found in the birefringent nerve fiber layer at 6 eccentricity, superior to the fovea, with the highest values being noticeably higher than previously reported with PS-OCT around the optic nerve head. Moreover, fast axis orientation and degree of polarization uniformity measurements made with AO-PS-OCT demonstrate polarization scrambling in the retinal pigment epithelium at the highest resolution reported to date.

AB Magnesium/silicon carbide (Mg/SiC) multilayers have been fabricated with normal incidence reflectivity in the vicinity of 40% to 50% for wavelengths in the 25 to 50 nm wavelength range. However many applications, for example solar telescopes and ultrafast studies using high harmonic generation sources, desire larger bandwidths than provided by high reflectivity Mg/SiC multilayers. We investigate introducing a third material, Scandium, to create a tri-material Mg/Sc/SiC multilayer allowing an increase the bandwidth while maintaining high reflectivity.

AB Studying triggered Non Volcanic Tremor (NVT) is important because it may help to map the depth of the locked zones of faults associated with high seismic risk. The success of this mapping depends on precisely locating the depth of tremor. Tremor, like other long-lived signals (e. g., Earth hum) lacks distinct sharp timing features making it impossible to locate with classical approaches. Time Reversal has the advantage of exploiting the full waveform with no a priori assumption regarding the source or the observed signal. We perform a synthetic study of time reversal location of a long-lasting source in the Los Angeles basin with a realistic 3D velocity model and sparse station set. We show that, the key to successfully locating NVT, is application of suitable imaging fields, such as the wave divergence, curl and energy current. Citation: Larmat, C. S., R. A. Guyer, and P. A.

AB Recently, stochastic simulations of networks of chemical reactions have shown distributions of steady states that are inconsistent with the steady state solutions of the corresponding deterministic ordinary differential equations. One such class of systems is comprised of networks that have irreversible reactions, and the origin of the anomalous behavior in these cases is understood to be due to the existence of absorbing states. More puzzling is the report of such anomalies in reaction networks without irreversible reactions. One such biologically important example is the futile cycle. Here we show that, in these systems, nonclassical behavior can originate from a stochastic elimination of all the molecules of a key species. This leads to a reduction in the topology of the network and the sampling of steady states corresponding to a truncated network. Surprisingly, we find that, in spite of the purely discrete character of the topology reduction mechanism revealed by "exact" numerical solutions of the master equations, this phenomenon is reproduced by the corresponding Fokker-Planck equations.

AB Dye-sensitized solar cells are potentially inexpensive alternatives to traditional semiconductor solar cells. In order to optimize dyes for solar cells we systematically investigate the electronic structure of a variety of porphyrins and phthalocyanines. As a biological model system we use the heme group in cytochrome c which plays a role in biological charge transfer processes. X-ray absorption spectroscopy of the N 1s and C 1s edges reveals the unoccupied molecular orbitals and the orientation of the molecules in thin films. The transition metal 2p edges reflect the oxidation state of the central metal atom, its spin state, and the ligand field of the surrounding N atoms. The latter allows tuning of the energy position of the lowest unoccupied orbital by several tenths of an eV by tailoring the molecules and their deposition. Fe and Mn containing phthalocyanines oxidize easily from +2 to +3 in air and require vacuum deposition for obtaining a reproducible oxidation state. Chlorinated porphyrins, on the other hand, are reduced from +3 to +2 during vacuum deposition at elevated temperatures. These findings stress the importance of controlled thin film deposition for obtaining photovoltaic devices with an optimum match between the energy levels of the dye and those of the donor and acceptor electrodes, together with a molecular orientation for optimal overlap between the pi orbitals in the direction of the carrier transport.

AB We report on small-angle x-ray scattering measurements on liquid water aimed at characterizing the pressure evolution of its large-scale structure. Diffraction profiles have been fitted assuming a Lorentzian dependence on the exchanged momentum. As a result, we observe an anomalous behavior of the diffracted intensity that tends to disappear, increasing either the pressure or the temperature. This effect is discussed in detail and imputed to the ability of hydrostatic pressure to weaken hydrogen bonds.

AB Electronic relaxation dynamics subsequent to s -> p excitation of the excess electron in large anionic water clusters, (H2O)(n)- and (D2O)(n)- with 25 < n < 200, were investigated using time-resolved photoelectron imaging. Experimental improvements have enabled considerably larger clusters to be probed than in previous work, and the temporal resolution of the instrument has been improved. New trends are seen in the size-dependent p-state lifetimes for clusters with n >= 70, suggesting a significant change in the electron-water interaction for clusters in this size range. Extrapolating the results for these larger clusters to the infinite-size limit yields internal conversion lifetimes tau(IC) of 60 and 160 fs for electrons dissolved in H2O and D2O, respectively. In addition, the time-evolving spectra show evidence for solvent relaxation in the excited electronic state prior to internal conversion and in the ground state subsequent to internal conversion. Relaxation in the excited state appears to occur on a time scale similar to that of internal conversion, while ground state solvent dynamics occur on a similar to 1 ps time scale, in reasonable agreement with previous measurements on water cluster anions and electrons solvated in liquid water.

AB The mechanism behind the steep slowing down of molecular motions upon approaching the glass transition remains a great puzzle. Most of the theories relate this mechanism to the cooperativity in molecular motion. In this work, we estimate the length scale of molecular cooperativity xi for many glass-forming systems from the collective vibrations (the so-called boson peak). The obtained values agree well with the dynamic heterogeneity length scale estimated using four-dimensional NMR. We demonstrate that xi directly correlates to the dependence of the structural relaxation on volume. This dependence presents only one part of the mechanism of slowing down the structural relaxation. Our analysis reveals that another part, the purely thermal variation in the structural relaxation (at constant volume), does not have a direct correlation with molecular cooperativity. These results call for a conceptually new approach to the analysis of the mechanism of the glass transition and to the role of molecular cooperativity.

AB We examine size-dependent deliquescence/efflorescence phase transformation for particles down to several nanometers in size. Thermodynamic properties of inorganic salt particles, coated with aqueous solution layers of varying thickness and surrounded by vapor, are analyzed. A thin layer criterion (TLC) is introduced to define a limiting deliquescence relative humidity (RH(D)) for small particles. This requires: (1) equality of chemical potentials between salt in an undissolved core, and thin adsorbed solution layer, and (2) equality of chemical potentials between water in the thin layer and vapor phase. The usual bulk deliquescence conditions are recovered in the limit of large dry particle size. Nanosize particles are found to deliquesce at relative humidity just below the RH(D) on crossing a nucleation barrier, located at a critical solution layer thickness. This barrier vanishes precisely at the RH(D) defined by the TLC. Concepts and methods from nucleation theory including the kinetic potential, self-consistent nucleation theory, nucleation theorems, and the Gibbs dividing surface provide theoretical foundation and point to unifying features of small particle deliquescence/efflorescence processes. These include common thermodynamic area constructions, useful for interpretation of small particle water uptake measurements, and a common free-energy surface, with constant RH cross sections describing deliquescence and efflorescence related through the nucleation theorem.

AB Using computer simulations, we show that the localized low frequency normal modes of a configuration in a supercooled liquid are strongly correlated with the irreversible structural reorganization of the particles within that configuration. Establishing this correlation constitutes the identification of the aspect of a configuration that determines the heterogeneity of the subsequent motion. We demonstrate that the spatial distribution of the summation over the soft local modes can persist in spite of particle reorganization that produces significant changes in individual modes. Along with spatial localization, the persistent influence of soft modes in particle relaxation results in anisotropy in the displacements of mobile particles over the time scale referred to as beta-relaxation.

AB The diameter of ZnO nanowires grown by chemical vapour deposition was controlled by employing CrN buffer structures on the c-Al(2)O(3) substrate. The nanosized CrN islands with different morphologies were prepared by nitridation of thickness-controlled Cr film in NH(3) atmosphere. The ZnO nanowires grew normal to the surface of the CrN/c-Al(2)O(3) templates due to reduction in the lattice mismatch between ZnO and c-Al(2)O(3) by the CrN buffer layer. Investigation of the interface between CrN and ZnO by high resolution transmission electron microscopy revealed the presence of reactive layers such as ZnCr(2)O(4) and Cr(2)O(3). The diameter of nanowires significantly affected their stimulated emission characteristics. At room temperature, the threshold intensity for stimulated emission increased from 35 to above 500kW cm(-2) as the diameter of ZnO nanowires decreases from 223 to 77 nm. This dependence of threshold intensity for stimulated emission from nanowires is caused by an increase in the surface recombination and/or enhanced leakage of optical field in narrower nanowires.

AB We describe a mathematical model and Monte Carlo( MC) simulation of viral evolution during acute infection. We consider both synchronous and a synchronous processes of viral infection of new target cells. The model enables an assessment of the expected sequence diversity in new HIV-1 infections originating from a single transmitted viral strain, estimation of the most recent common ancestor (MRCA) of the transmitted viral lineage, and estimation of the time to coalesce back to the MRCA. We also calculate the probability of the MRCA being the transmitted virus or an evolved variant. Excluding insertions and deletions, we assume HIV-1 evolves by base substitution without selection pressure during the earliest phase of HIV-1 infection prior to the immune response. Unlike phylogenetic methods that follow a lineage backwards to coalescence, we compare the observed data to a model of the diversification of a viral population forward in time. To illustrate the application of these methods, we provide detailed comparisons of the model and simulations results to 306 envelope sequences obtained from eight newly infected subjects at a single time point. The data from 6/8 patients were in good agreement with model predictions, and hence compatible with a single-strain infection evolving under no selection pressure. The diversity of the samples from the other two patients was too great to be explained by the model, suggesting multiple HIV-1-strains were transmitted. The model can also be applied to longitudinal patient data to estimate within-host viral evolutionary parameters. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB High-energy behavior of amplitudes in a gauge theory can be reformulated in terms of the evolution of Wilson-line operators. In the leading logarithmic approximation it is given by the conformally invariant BK equation for the evolution of color dipoles. In QCD, the next-to-leading order BK equation has both conformal and non-conformal parts, the latter providing the running of the coupling constant. To separate the conformally invariant effects from the running-coupling effects, we calculate the NLO evolution of the color dipoles in the conformal N = 4 SYM theory. We define the "composite dipole operators" with the rapidity cutoff preserving conformal invariance. The resulting Mobius-invariant kernel for these operators agrees with the forward NLO BFKL calculation of [A.V. Kotikov. L.N. Lipatov, Nucl. Phys. B 582 (2000) 19; A.V. Kotikov, L.N. Lipatov, Nucl.

AB The nova-like cataclysmic binary AE Aqr, which is currently understood to be a former supersoft X-ray binary and current magnetic propeller, was observed for over two binary orbits (78 ks) in 2005 August with the High-Energy Transmission Grating (HETG) on board the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The long, uninterrupted Chandra observation provides a wealth of details concerning the X-ray emission of AE Aqr, many of which are new and unique to the HETG. First, the X-ray spectrum is that of an optically thin multi-temperature thermal plasma; the X-ray emission lines are broad, with widths that increase with the line energy from sigma approximate to 1 eV (510 km s(-1)) for O VIII to sigma approximate to 5.5 eV (820 km s(-1)) for Si XIV; the X-ray spectrum is reasonably well fit by a plasma model with a Gaussian emission measure distribution that peaks at log T (K) = 7.16, has a width sigma = 0.48, an Fe abundance equal to 0.44 times solar, and other metal (primarily Ne, Mg, and Si) abundances equal to 0.76 times solar; and for a distance d = 100 pc, the total emission measure EM = 8.0 x 10(53) cm(-3) and the 0.5-10 keV luminosity L(X) = 1.1 x 10(31) erg s(-1). Second, based on the f/(i + r) flux ratios of the forbidden (f), intercombination (i), and recombination (r) lines of the He alpha triplets of N VI, O VII, and Ne IX measured by Itoh et al. in the XMM-Newton Reflection Grating Spectrometer spectrum and those of O VII, Ne IX, Mg XI, and Si XIII in the Chandra HETG spectrum, either the electron density of the plasma increases with temperature by over three orders of magnitude, from n(e) approximate to 6 x 10(10) cm(-3) for N VI [log T(K) approximate to 6] to n(e) approximate to 1 x 10(14) cm(-3) for Si XIII [log T(K) approximate to 7], and/or the plasma is significantly affected by photoexcitation. Third, the radial velocity of the X-ray emission lines varies on the white dwarf spin phase, with two oscillations per spin cycle and an amplitude K approximate to 160 km s(-1). These results appear to be inconsistent with the recent models of Itoh et al., Ikhsanov, and Venter & Meintjes of an extended, low-density source of X-rays in AE Aqr, but instead support earlier models in which the dominant source of X-rays is of high density and/or in close proximity to the white dwarf.

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

AB A point source observed 8 AU in projection from beta Pictoris in L' (3.8 mu m) imaging in 2003 has been recently presented as a planet candidate. Here we show the results of L'-band adaptive optics imaging obtained at Keck Observatory in 2008. We do not detect beta Pic b beyond a limiting radius of 0.'' 29, or 5.5 AU in projection, from the star. If beta Pic b is an orbiting planet, then it has moved >= 0.'' 12 (2.4 AU in projection) closer to the star in the five years separating the two epochs of observation. We examine the range of orbital parameters consistent with the observations, including likely bounds from the locations of previously inferred planetesimal belts. We find a family of low-eccentricity orbits with semimajor axes similar to 8-9 AU that are completely allowed, as well as a broad region of orbits with e less than or similar to 0.2, a greater than or similar to 10 AU that are allowed if the apparent motion of the planet was toward the star in 2003. We compare this allowed space with predictions of the planetary orbital elements from the literature. Additionally, we show how similar observations in the next several years can further constrain the space of allowed orbits. Non-detections of the source through 2013 will exclude the interpretation of the candidate as a planet orbiting between the 6.4 and 16 AU planetesimal belts.

AB The reaction of CO with H-3(+) and H2D+ has been studied to investigate thermal rate coefficients and product branching ratios in the temperature range [20, 350] K, by using a direct ab initio molecular dynamics method. In trajectory simulations, the energies and forces are calculated using a scaling all correlation second-order M phi ller-Plesset perturbation theory (SAC-MP2) method with the correlation consistent polarized valence triplet-zeta basis (cc-pVTZ). Results show that total thermal rate coefficients for both the CO + H-3(+) and the CO + H2D+ reactions have a weakly positive temperature dependence. At room temperature, the rate coefficients are predicted to be (1.42 +/- 0.03) x10(-9) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) with a product branching ratio of [HOC+]/[HCO+] = 0.36 +/- 0.01 for the CO + H-3(+) reaction, and (1.26 +/- 0.03) x 10(-9) cm(3) molecule(-1) s(-1) with the product branching ratios: 0.37 +/- 0.01 (([HOC+] + [DOC+])/([HCO+] + [DOC+])), 0.54 +/- 0.02 ([DCO+]/[HCO+]), and 0.49 +/- 0.02 ([DOC+]/[HOC+]) for CO + H2D+. The product branching ratios have a noticeable temperature dependence as well as a pronounced isotopic effect for the H/DOC+ product channel.

AB A three dimensional ray tracing of whistler-mode chorus is performed in a realistic magnetosphere using the HOTRAY code. A variety of important propagation characteristics are revealed associated with azimuthal density gradients and a plasmaspheric plume. Specifically, whistler mode chorus originating from a broad region on the dayside can propagate into the plasmasphere. After entry into the plasmasphere, waves can propagate eastward in MLT and merge to form hiss. This explains how chorus generated on the dayside can contribute to plasmaspheric hiss in the dusk sector. A subset of waves entering the plasmasphere can even propagate globally onto the nightside.

AB SHRIMP analysis of U/Pb ages of detrital zircons in twelve late Miocene to Pleistocene sand samples from six drill cores on the Snake River Plain (SRP), Idaho, suggests that an ancestral Lost River system was drained westward along the northern side of the SRP. Neoproterozoic (650 to 740 Ma, Cryogenian) detrital zircon grains from the Wildhorse Creek drainage of the Pioneer Mountains core complex, with a source in 695 Ma orthogneiss, and which are characteristic of the Big Lost River system, are found in Pliocene sand from cores drilled in the central SRP (near Wendell) and western SRP (at Mountain Home). In addition to these Neoproterozoic grains, fluvial sands sourced from the northern margin of the SRP contain detrital zircons with the following ages: 42 to 52 Ma from the Challis magmatic belt, 80 to 100 Ma from the Atlanta lobe of the Idaho batholith, and mixed Paleozoic and Proterozoic ages (1400 to 2000 Ma). In contrast, sands in the Mountain Home Air Base well (MHAB) that contain 155-Ma Jurassic detrital grains with a source in northern Nevada are interpreted to represent an integrated Snake River, with provenance on the southern, eastern and northern sides of the SRP.
We propose that late Pliocene and early Pleistocene construction of basaltic volcanoes and rhyolitic domes of the Axial Volcanic Zone of the eastern SRP and the northwest-trending Arco Volcanic Rift Zone (including the Craters of the Moon volcanic center), disrupted the paleo-Lost River drainage, confining it to the Big Lost Trough, a volcanically dammed basin of internal drainage on the Idaho National Laboratory (INL). After the Axial Volcanic Zone and Arco Volcanic Rift Zone were constructed to form a volcanic eruptive and intrusive highland to the southwest, sediment from the Big Lost River was trapped in the Big Lost Trough instead of being delivered by surface streams to the western SRP. Today, water from drainages north of the SRP enters the Snake River Plain regional aquifer through sinks in the Big Lost Trough, and the water resurfaces at Thousand Springs, Idaho, about 195 km to the southwest.
Holocene to latest Pliocene samples from drill core in the Big Lost Trough reveal interplay between the glacio-fluvial outwash of the voluminous Big Lost River system and the relatively minor Little Lost River system. A mixed provenance signature is recognized in fine-grained sands deposited in a highstand of a Pleistocene pluvial-lake system. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We report on a new electromagnetic phenomenon that emerges in Mott insulators. The phenomenon manifests as antiferromagnetic ordering due to orbital electric currents which are spontaneously generated from the coupling between spin currents and an external homogenous magnetic field. This novel spin-charge-current effect provides the mechanism to measure the so-far elusive spin currents by means of unpolarized neutron scattering, nuclear magnetic resonance or muon spectroscopy. We illustrate this mechanism by solving a half-filled Hubbard model on a frustrated ladder.

AB We present an analysis of the decays B-0 -> K-*0(892)gamma and B+-> K*+(892)gamma using a sample of about 383x10(6) BB events collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II asymmetric energy B factory. We measure the branching fractions B(B-0 -> K-*0 gamma)=(4.47 +/- 0.10 +/- 0.16)x10(-5) and B(B+-> K*+gamma)=(4.22 +/- 0.14 +/- 0.16)x10(-5). We constrain the direct CP asymmetry to be -0.033 < A(B -> K-*gamma)< 0.028 and the isospin asymmetry to be 0.017 K+pi(-)pi(0) Decays

AB We present evidence of D-0-D-0 mixing using a time-dependent amplitude analysis of the decay D-0 -> K+pi(-)pi(0) in a data sample of 384 fb(-1) collected with the BABAR detector at the PEP-II e(+)e(-) collider at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Assuming CP conservation, we measure the mixing parameters x(K pi pi)(0')=[2.61(-0.68)(+0.57)(stat)+/- 0.39(syst)]%, y(K pi pi)(0')=[-0.06(-0.64)(+0.55)(stat)+/- 0.34(syst)]%. This result is inconsistent with the no-mixing hypothesis with a significance of 3.2 standard deviations. We find no evidence of CP violation in mixing.

TI Measurements of the Critical Power for Self-Injection of Electrons in a
Laser Wakefield Accelerator
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID PLASMA-WAVES; BEAMS; PULSES
AB A laser wakefield acceleration study has been performed in the matched, self-guided, blowout regime producing 720 +/- 50 MeV quasimonoenergetic electrons with a divergence Delta theta(FWHM) of 2.85 +/- 0.15 mrad using a 10 J, 60 fs 0.8 mu m laser. While maintaining a nearly constant plasma density (3x10(18) cm(-3)), the energy gain increased from 75 to 720 MeV when the plasma length was increased from 3 to 8 mm. Absolute charge measurements indicate that self-injection of electrons occurs when the laser power P exceeds 3 times the critical power P(cr) for relativistic self-focusing and saturates around 100 pC for P/P(cr)> 5. The results are compared with both analytical scalings and full 3D particle-in-cell simulations.

ID INERTIAL-CONFINEMENT-FUSION; FIELDS; IGNITION
AB The demonstration of magnetic field compression to many tens of megagauss in cylindrical implosions of inertial confinement fusion targets is reported for the first time. The OMEGA laser [T. R. Boehly , Opt. Commun. 133, 495 (1997)] was used to implode cylindrical CH targets filled with deuterium gas and seeded with a strong external field (> 50 kG) from a specially developed magnetic pulse generator. This seed field was trapped (frozen) in the shock-heated gas fill and compressed by the imploding shell at a high implosion velocity, minimizing the effect of resistive flux diffusion. The magnetic fields in the compressed core were probed via proton deflectrometry using the fusion products from an imploding D(3)He target. Line-averaged magnetic fields between 30 and 40 MG were observed.

TI Global Calculation of Nuclear Shape Isomers
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID GROUND-STATE; MASS NUCLEI; COEXISTENCE; ISOTOPES
AB To determine which nuclei may exhibit shape isomerism, we use a well-benchmarked macroscopic-microscopic model to calculate potential-energy surfaces as functions of spheroidal (epsilon(2)), hexadecapole (epsilon(4)), and axial-asymmetry (gamma) shape coordinates for 7206 nuclei from A=31 to A=290. We analyze these and identify the deformations and energies of all minima deeper than 0.2 MeV. These minima may correspond to characteristic experimentally observable shape-isomeric states. Shape isomers mainly occur in the A=80 region, the A=100 region, and in an extended region centered around (208)Pb. We compare our model to experimental results for Kr isotopes. Moreover, in a plot versus N and Z we show for each of the 7206 nuclei the calculated number of minima. The results reveal one fairly unexplored region of shape isomerism, which is experimentally accessible, namely the region northeast of (208)(82)Pb.

AB At the charge neutral point, graphene exhibits a very unusual high-resistance metallic state and a transition to a complete insulating phase in a strong magnetic field. We propose that the current carriers in this state are the charged vortices of the XY valley-pseudospin order parameter, a situation which is dual to a conventional thin superconducting film. We study energetics and the stability of this phase in the presence of disorder.

AB Bacteria-mediated acquisition of atmospheric N(2) serves as a critical source of nitrogen in terrestrial ecosystems. Here we reveal that symbiotic nitrogen fixation facilitates the cultivation of specialized fungal crops by leaf-cutter ants. By using acetylene reduction and stable isotope experiments, we demonstrated that N(2) fixation occurred in the fungus gardens of eight leaf-cutter ant species and, further, that this fixed nitrogen was incorporated into ant biomass. Symbiotic N(2)-fixing bacteria were consistently isolated from the fungus gardens of 80 leaf-cutter ant colonies collected in Argentina, Costa Rica, and Panama. The discovery of N(2) fixation within the leaf-cutter ant-microbe symbiosis reveals a previously unrecognized nitrogen source in neotropical ecosystems.

AB A new spectral bin microphysical scheme (SBM) was implemented into the Weather Research and Forecasting model referred to as Fast- SBM, which uses a smaller number of size distribution functions than the original version of the scheme referred to as Exact- SBM. It was shown that both schemes produced similar dynamical and microphysical structure of a squall line simulated. An excellent agreement in the simulated precipitation amounts between the schemes was found within a range of cloud condensation nuclei concentrations from 100 to 3000 cm(-3). The Fast- SBM requires about 40% of the computing power of the Exact- SBM, allowing it to be used for "real-time" simulations over limited domains. The results obtained using the SBM simulations have been compared with those using a modified version of the Thompson bulk parameterization scheme. The main extension of the bulk scheme was the implementation of the process of drop nucleation, so that drop concentration is no longer prescribed a priori but rather calculated using the prescribed aerosol concentration. This scheme is referred to as the Drop scheme. A large set of sensitivity studies have been performed, in which microphysical parameters and precipitation, droplet nucleation above cloud base, etc., have been compared with those obtained from SBM. The SBM scheme produces more realistic dynamical and microphysical structure of the squall line. The Drop scheme did relatively little to change the cloud structures simulated by the bulk scheme. Unlike the SBM simulations that show different precipitation sensitivities to aerosol concentrations in relatively dry and humid environments, the Drop scheme indicates monotonic decrease in precipitation with increasing aerosol concentrations.

AB The reaction pathways for the ClO + HOCO reaction have been explored using the coupled-cluster method to locate and optimize the critical points on the ground-state potential-energy surface. Results show that the ClO + HOCO reaction can produce Cl + HOC(O)O, HOCl + CO(2), HCl + CO(3), and HClO + CO(2) via an addition or a direct hydrogen abstraction reaction mechanism. The reaction kinetics has been studied using the variational RRKM theory. It is found that the ClO + HOCO reaction is fast and has a negative temperature dependence at low temperatures. At room temperature, the thermal rate coefficient is obtained as 4.26 x 10(-12) cm(3) molecules(-1) s(-1) with product branching fractions of Cl (0.518), HOCl (0.469), HCl (0.01), and HClO (0.003) at zero pressure, The Cl + HOC(O)O products are major, compared to the HOCl + CO(2) products, because of the loose transition state along the dissociation pathway to eliminate Cl. In addition, the RRKM/master equation simulations indicate that the stabilization of the HOC(O)OCl intermediates is noticeable at moderate pressures as its thermal rate constants reach about 6.0 x 10(-13) cm(3) molecules(-1) s(-1). In contrast, the other product branching ratios for the ClO + HOCO reaction are weakly dependent on pressure.

ID SMALL-ANGLE NEUTRON; ANIONIC-POLYMERIZATION; MODEL POLYDIENES;

AB The deuterated homopolymers and their corresponding polystyrene-block-polybutadiene and polystyreneblock-polyisoprene copolymers require lower cloud pressures than their hydrogenous analogues to dissolve in a compressible alkane solvent, such as propane. For symmetric diblocks, deuteration reduces the micellization pressure. By contrast, for asymmetric diblocks with a long diene block relative to the styrene block, deuteration can increase the micellization pressure. All in all, however, the deuteration effects, while measurable, do not qualitatively change the principal diblock properties in compressible propane solutions, such as pressure-induced micelle decomposition, micelle formation and micelle size, and their temperature dependence. Therefore, isotope labeling should be a useful approach to neutron-scattering characterization for styrene-diene block copolymers in compressible alkane systems.

AB Photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes absorb energy and guide photoexcitations to reaction centers with speed and efficacy that produce near-perfect efficiency, Light harvesting complex II (LHCII) is the most abundant light-harvesting complex and is responsible for absorbing the majority of light energy in plants. We apply two-dimensional electronic spectroscopy to examine energy flow in LHCII. This technique allows for direct mapping of excitation energy pathways as a function of absorption and emission wavelength. The experimental and theoretical results reveal that excitation energy transfers through the complex on three time scales: previously unobserved sub-100 fs relaxation through spatially overlapping states, several hundred femtosecond transfer between nearby chlorophylls, and picosecond energy transfer steps between layers of pigments. All energy is observed to collect into the energetically lowest and most delocalized states, which serve as exit sites. We examine the angular distribution of optimal energy transfer produced by this delocalized electronic structure and discuss how it facilitates the exit step in which the energy moves from LHCII to other complexes toward the reaction center.

AB In this work, the synthesis and physiochemical characterization of titanium oxide nanoparticle-graphene oxide (TiO(2)-GO) and titanium oxide nanoparticle-reduced graphene oxide (TiO(2)-RGO) composites was undertaken. TiO(2)-GO materials were prepared via the hydrolysis of TiF(4) at 60 degrees C for 24 h in the presence of air aqueous dispersion of graphene oxide (GO). The reaction proceeded to yield an insoluble material that is composed of TiO(2) and GO. Composites were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM), Raman spectroscopy, N(2) adsorption-desorption, and thermal gravimetric analysis/differential thermal analysis (TGA/DTA). This approach yielded highly faceted anatase nanocrystals with petal-like morphologies on and embedded between the graphene sheets. At higher GO concentrations with no stirring of the reaction media, a long-range ordered assembly for TiO(2)-GO sheets was observed due to self-assembly. GO-TiO(2) composites formed colloidal dispersions at low concentrations (similar to 0.75 mg/mL) in water and ethanol but were not amenable to forming graphene papers via filtration through Anodisc membranes (0.2 mu M pore diameter) due to their high titania concentration. Zeta potential measurements and particle size distributions from dynamic light scattering (DLS) experiments on these materials explain the stability of the TiO(2)-GO colloidal solutions. Chemical and thermal methods were also used to reduce TiO(2)-GO to give TiO(2)-RGO materials.

AB Periodic density functional theory calculations on large supercells have been carried out to investigate the atomic and electronic structure of small gold particles (Au(2), Au(4), Au(9), Au(13), and Au(14)) supported on the (001) surface of various transition metal carbides (TiC, ZrC, VC, and delta-MoC). All the supported Au particles exhibited strong interactions with the C sites of the metal-carbide surfaces. Nevertheless, the interactions between adsorbed Au atoms were attractive, thus ultimately facilitating nucleation of two- or three-dimensional metal particles. The presence of the underlying carbide strongly modified the electronic structure and charge density of the supported metal particles resulting in the experimentally proven improved catalytic performance of the resulting systems as compared with cases where the support is an oxide. The electronic perturbations were quite strong for two-dimensional gold particles directly in contact with the carbide substrates and gradually decreased for two-layer and three-layer thick supported particles. While all the metal carbides examined induced a qualitatively similar perturbation on the supported Au particles, the effect is significantly larger for ZrC thus suggesting that the resulting model catalyst would perform even better than the already tried Au/TiC system.

AB We report on the reactivity of a FeO(111) monolayer grown on Pt(111) toward aliphatic alcohols. Using a combination of temperature-programmed desorption, infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy, and scanning tunneling microscopy techniques, we show that the alcohols dissociate primarily at FeO(111) step edges and their oxidation leads to the removal of the FeO(111) film. Upon annealing, FeO(111) lattice oxygen is incorporated into the reaction products, and reduced iron left behind dissolves into the underlying Pt(111) substrate. Ethanol is employed in a more detailed spectroscopic study to follow the reaction products and surface intermediates as the removal of FeO(111) proceeds. The ethoxy species formed upon dissociative adsorption of ethanol at the FeO(111) step edges undergo partial oxidation to acetaldehyde and a complete oxidation to CO and H(2)O. Other products, CH(4) and H(2), associated with the reactions occurring oil Pt(111) are also observed as the bare Pt(111) surface appears. A similar etching process was also observed for n-decane.

TI Equilibrium Isotope Effect for Hydrogen Absorption in Palladium
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY C
LA English
DT Article
ID DEUTERIUM; EXCHANGE; SYSTEM; PD
AB Absorption isotherms at 323 K for the H-D-Pd system were measured by introducing H(2) and D(2) into Pd in sequence. The method using addition of isotopes to the system in sequence to investigate isotope exchange effects has not been previously reported. The equilibrium absorption pressure in the plateau region of the mixed-isotope system varies with the ratio of HID in the solid phase. It lies between those of the single-isotope systems of H-Pd and D-Pd. Higher equilibrium pressures are associated with high D/H ratios in the solid phase. A model proposed previously (Luo, W.; Cowgill, D.; Causey, R.; Stewart, K. J. Phys. Chem., B 2008, 112, 8099) for mixed isotope hydride desorption, which correlates the equilibrium plateau pressure of the mixed H-D system with the fractions of D and H in the solid and the equilibrium plateau pressures of the single-isotope systems, is also successfully applied to absorption, When D(2) is introduced into the H-Pd system in the plateau region, both the H-D exchange processes in the gas phase and net H (D) absorption take place. The former does not result in a total pressure change, but the latter creates a total pressure decrease. These reactions produce a D concentration increase in both the bulk Pd and the gaseous phase, as expected. Curiously, however, they also result in a counterintuitive small H concentration increase in bulk Pd and a decrease in gaseous H. Analogous results are obtained when the order of D(2)-H(2) introduction is reversed. In the plateau region, isotope displacement does not take place. Once in the beta-phase, isotope displacement does take place. The equilibrium isotope H-D partitions in the gas phase, H(2), HD, and D(2), are controlled by the equilibrium constant, K(HD), and their equilibrium partitions among H and D between gas and bulk Pd are controlled by the separation factor, alpha.

AB Understanding lithium diffusion properties in electrode materials is important for designing rechargeable lithium-ion batteries with improved performance. In this work, the lithium dynamics in layered Li2TiO3 were characterized using a combination of Li-6,Li-7 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) over a wide temperature range (150-500 K) and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The Li-7 static NMR and stimulated echo experiments show slow and partial lithium diffusion in Li2TiO3. The high-field (21.1 T) Li-6 magic-angle spinning NMR shows a new tetrahedral lithium site along with the three crystallographic octahedral sites in Li2TiO3 sample. MD simulations predict that lithium can occupy a tetrahedral site if two or more vacancies exist in the vicinity, which may result, for example, from the presence of a Ti defect in the LiTi2 layer. Li-6 two-dimensional (2D) exchange NMR experiments show evidence of lithium diffusion between the pure Li and LiTi2 layers along the c axis. Although the 2D exchange NMR data are not sensitive to lithium diffusion in the ab plane, MD simulations show that lithium diffusion in the pure Li layer is equally probable. Combining these results, a detailed picture of the lithium diffusion pathways in Li2TiO3 is presented.

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

TI Phylogeographic reconstruction of a bacterial species with high levels

AB Background: Phylogeographic reconstruction of some bacterial populations is hindered by low diversity coupled with high levels of lateral gene transfer. A comparison of recombination levels and diversity at seven housekeeping genes for eleven bacterial species, most of which are commonly cited as having high levels of lateral gene transfer shows that the relative contributions of homologous recombination versus mutation for Burkholderia pseudomallei is over two times higher than for Streptococcus pneumoniae and is thus the highest value yet reported in bacteria. Despite the potential for homologous recombination to increase diversity, B. pseudomallei exhibits a relative lack of diversity at these loci. In these situations, whole genome genotyping of orthologous shared single nucleotide polymorphism loci, discovered using next generation sequencing technologies, can provide very large data sets capable of estimating core phylogenetic relationships. We compared and searched 43 whole genome sequences of B. pseudomallei and its closest relatives for single nucleotide polymorphisms in orthologous shared regions to use in phylogenetic reconstruction.
Results: Bayesian phylogenetic analyses of > 14,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms yielded completely resolved trees for these 43 strains with high levels of statistical support. These results enable a better understanding of a separate analysis of population differentiation among > 1,700 B. pseudomallei isolates as defined by sequence data from seven housekeeping genes. We analyzed this larger data set for population structure and allele sharing that can be attributed to lateral gene transfer. Our results suggest that despite an almost panmictic population, we can detect two distinct populations of B. pseudomallei that conform to biogeographic patterns found in many plant and animal species. That is, separation along Wallace's Line, a biogeographic boundary between Southeast Asia and Australia.
Conclusion: We describe an Australian origin for B. pseudomallei, characterized by a single introduction event into Southeast Asia during a recent glacial period, and variable levels of lateral gene transfer within populations. These patterns provide insights into mechanisms of genetic diversification in B. pseudomallei and its closest relatives, and provide a framework for integrating the traditionally separate fields of population genetics and phylogenetics for other bacterial species with high levels of lateral gene transfer.

AB SnoN represses TGF-beta signalling to promote cell proliferation and has been defined as a proto-oncogene partly due to its elevated expression in many human cancer cells. Although the anti-tumourigenic activity of SnoN has been suggested, the molecular basis for this has not been defined. We showed here that high levels of SnoN exert anti-oncogenic activity by inducing senescence. SnoN interacts with the promyelocytic leukaemia (PML) protein and is recruited to the PML nuclear bodies where it stabilizes p53, leading to premature senescence. Furthermore, overexpression of SnoN inhibits oncogenic transformation induced by Ras and Myc in vitro and significantly blocks papilloma development in vivo in a carcinogen-induced skin tumourigenesis model. The few papillomas that were developed displayed high levels of senescence and spontaneously regressed. Our study has revealed a novel Smad-independent pathway of SnoN function that mediates its anti-oncogenic activity.

AB The rapid extraction of magnesium from serpentine is critical to novel low-pressure mineral carbonation methodology. Though almost any acid can dissolve the magnesium, the rate plays a critical role in the industrialization of the process. It has been demonstrated that including a low-energy, attrition-type grinding with the chemical attack of the acid can more than double the extraction rate. In part I of this investigation, it was found that a model that accounts for surface reaction, Surface speciation, the electrical double layer, particle size distribution, and ash layer diffusion can adequately describe the kinetics of the dissolution of serpentine with concurrent grinding. However, the model did not account for changes in temperature, concentration, and grinding energy input. We report here the model developments and changes as well as a detailed experimental investigation to provide validation for the model.

ID FLOW MEMBRANE FILTRATION; CONCENTRATION POLARIZATION; LAYER
AB Because of limited availability of test data with actual Hanford tank-waste samples, a method was developed to estimate expected filtration performance based on physical characterization data for the Hanford Tank Waste Treatment and Immobilization Plant. This method relies upon the similarity between the gel concentration measured during crossflow filtration and the slurry concentration measured after a sample is centrifuged. Testing was performed to determine the centrifuged-solids concentration, and then a subset of simulants was tested to determine the gel concentration during crossflow filtration. These two approaches produced identical results, indicating the centrifuged-solids concentration call be used to represent the gel concentration for filtration. This substitution will allow the expected filtration performance to be characterized at a significantly reduced cost.

AB Atomic scale phenomena driving contact line advancement during the wetting of a solid by a liquid are investigated via molecular dynamics simulations of Ag(1) drops spreading on Ni substrates. For the homologous temperature similar to 5% above melting for Ag, essentially non-reactive wetting is observed with relatively high spreading velocity. Analyzing atomic positions with time, including computing flow fields, permits investigation of atomic scale transport mechanisms associated with advancement of the contact line. Delivery of material to the contact line occurs preferentially along the liquid/vapor interface. Ag(1) atoms transported along the liquid/vapor interface become new droplet edge material, effectively displacing existing edge material. Evidence is also shown of a prominent transport and flow mechanism more typically associated with the molecular kinetic theory of spreading: some portion of Ag(1) atoms move along the solid/liquid interface to eventually occupy the contact line region. Selected atomic trajectories are shown to illustrate atoms moving with the contact line, detaching and re-attaching at sites along the solid/liquid interface. However, this latter solid/liquid interface transport mechanism contributed a lower percentage of new material to the advancing contact line compared to the liquid/vapor interface transport mechanism. Features of the AgNi system that may contribute to the dominance of a liquid/vapor interface transport mechanism are highlighted, including a relatively low liquid/vapor surface tension.

AB The Au(CN)(2)(-) ion is the most stable Au compound known for centuries, yet a detailed understanding of its chemical bonding is stilt lacking. Here we report direct experimental evidence of significant covalent bonding character in the Au-bonds in Au(CN)(2)(-) using photoelectron spectroscopy and comparisons with its lighter congeners, Ag(CN)(2)(-) and Cu(CN)(2)(-). Vibrational progressions in the Au-C stretching mode were observed for all detachment transitions for Au(CN)(2)(-), in contrast to the atomic-like transitions for Cu(CN)(2)(-), revealing the Au-C covalent bonding character. In addition, rich electronic structural information was obtained for Au(CN)(2)(-) by employing 118 nm detachment photons. Density functional theory and high-level ab initio calculations were carried out to understand the photoetectron spectra and obtain insight into the nature of the chemical bonding in the M(CN)(2)(-) complexes. Significant covalent character in the Au-C bonding due to the strong relativistic effects was revealed in Au(CN)(2)(-), consistent with its high stability.

AB We evaluated the difference between randomly packed NCs (disordered films), periodic films, and three-dimensional crystals in terms of their lattice structure and interparticle spacing using time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) technique. The work was performed on nanocrystal solids formed by 7 nm PbS nanocrystals capped with oleic acid. We have found that interparticle spacing in faceted three-dimensional crystals is similar to 25% smaller as compared with three-dimensional films formed by solvent evaporation. We showed that interparticle spacing in faceted three-dimensional crystals is significantly smaller than the length of a fully extended molecule of oleic acid, and hence, full interdigitation of molecules from neighboring particle is doubtful. Also we demonstrated that postpreparative mild thermal treatment allows further manipulation of interparticle spacing.

AB Recent studies in diverse eukaryotes have implicated a family of nuclear envelope proteins containing SUN domains as key components of meiotic nuclear organization and chromosome dynamics. In many cases, these transmembrane proteins are also known to contribute to centrosome or spindle pole body function in mitotically dividing cells. During meiotic prophase, the apparent role of these SUN-domain proteins, together with their partner KASH-domain proteins, is to connect chromosomes through the intact nuclear envelope to force-generating mechanisms in the cytoplasm.

ID ALKANE FILMS; SIO2 SURFACE; MONOLAYERS; GRAPHITE
AB We have used synchrotron X-ray reflectivity measurements to investigate the structure n-dotriacontane (n-C32H66 or C32) films deposited from the vapor phase onto it SiO2-coated Si(100) surface. Our primary motivation was to determine whether the structure and growth mode of these films differ from those deposited from solution on the same substrate. The vapor-deposited films had it thickness of similar to 50 angstrom thick as monitored to red in situ by high-resolution ellipsometry and were stable in air. Similar to the case of solution-deposited C32 films, we find that film growth ill vacuum begins with a nearly complete bilayer adjacent to file SiO2 surface formed by C32 molecules aligned with their long axis parallel to the interface followed by one or more partial layers of perpendicular molecules. These molecular layers coexist with bulk particles at higher coverages. Furthermore, after thermally cycling our vapor-deposited samples at atmospheric pressure above the bulk C32 melting point, we find the structure odour Films as a function of temperature to be consistent with it phase diagram inferred previously for similarly treated solution-deposited films. Our results resolve Some Of the discrepancies that Basu and Satija (Basu, S.: Satija, S. K. Langmuir 2007, 23, 8331) found between the structure of vapor-deposited and solution-deposited films of intermediate-length alkanes at room temperature.

AAV-HAADC; DELIVERY; INFUSION; PRIMATES; MONKEYS; VECTOR
AB Background: In Parkinson disease (PD), the benefit of levodopa therapy becomes less marked over time, perhaps because degeneration of nigrostrial neurons causes progressive loss of aromatic L-amino acid decarboxylase (AADC), the enzyme that converts levodopa into dopamine. In a primate model of PD, intrastriatal infusion of an adeno-associated viral type 2 vector containing the human AADC gene (AAV-hAADC) results in robust response to low-dose levodopa without the side effects associated with higher doses. These data prompted a clinical trial.
Methods: Patients with moderately advanced PD received bilateral intraputaminal infusion of AAV-hAADC vector. Low-dose and high-dose cohorts (5 patients in each) were studied using standardized clinical rating scales at baseline and 6 months. PET scans using the AADC tracer [18F] fluoro-L-m-tyrosine (FMT) were performed as a measure of gene expression.
Results: The gene therapy was well tolerated, but 1 symptomatic and 2 asymptomatic intracranial hemorrhages followed the operative procedure. Total and motor rating scales improved in both cohorts. Motor diaries also showed increased on-time and reduced off-time without increased "on" time dyskinesia. At 6 months, FMT PET showed a 30% increase of putaminal uptake in the low-dose cohort and a 75% increase in the high-dose cohort.
Conclusion: This study provides class IV evidence that bilateral intrastriatal infusion of adeno-associated viral type 2 vector containing the human AADC gene improves mean scores on the Unified Parkinson's Disease Rating Scale by approximately 30% in the on and off states, but the surgical procedure may be associated with an increased risk of intracranial hemorrhage and self-limited headache.

AB The deepest rocks known from within Earth are fragments of normal mantle (approximate to 400 km) and metamorphosed sediments (approximate to 350 km), both found exhumed in continental collision terranes. Here, we report fragments of a highly reduced deep mantle environment from at least 300 km, perhaps very much more, extracted from chromite of a Tibetan ophiolite. The sample consists, in part, of diamond, coesite-after-stishovite, the high-pressure form of TiO(2), native iron, high-pressure nitrides with a deep mantle isotopic signature, and associated SiC. This appears to be a natural example of the recently discovered disproportionation of Fe2(+) at very high pressure and consequent low oxygen fugacity (fO(2)) in deep Earth. Encapsulation within chromitite enclosed within upwelling solid mantle rock appears to be the only vehicle capable of transporting these phases and preserving their low-fO(2) environment at the very high temperatures of oceanic spreading centers.

AB Telomeres must be capped to preserve chromosomal stability. The conserved Stn1 and Ten1 proteins are required for proper capping of the telomere, although the mechanistic details of how they contribute to telomere maintenance are unclear. Here, we report the crystal structures of the C-terminal domain of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Stn1 and the Schizosaccharomyces pombe Ten1 proteins. These structures reveal striking similarities to corresponding subunits in the replication protein A complex, further supporting an evolutionary link between telomere maintenance proteins and DNA repair complexes. Our structural and in vivo data of Stn1 identify a new domain that has evolved to support a telomere-specific role in chromosome maintenance. These findings endorse a model of an evolutionarily conserved mechanism of DNA maintenance that has developed as a result of increased chromosomal structural complexity.

AB The opportunistic pathogen Candida albicans can undergo phenotypic switching between a benign, unicellular phenotype and an invasive, multicellular form that causes candidiasis. Increasingly, strains of Candida are becoming resistant to antifungal drugs, making the treatment of candidiasis difficult, especially in immunocompromised or critically ill patients. Consequently, there is a pressing need to develop new drugs that circumvent fungal drug-resistance mechanisms. In this work we used soft X-ray tomography to image the subcellular changes that occur as a consequence of both phenotypic switching and of treating C. albicans with antifungal peptoids, a class of candidate therapeutics unaffected by drug resistance mechanisms. Peptoid treatment suppressed formation of the pathogenic hyphal phenotype and resulted in striking changes in cell and organelle morphology, most dramatically in the nucleus and nucleolus, and in the number, size, and location of lipidic bodies. In particular, peptoid treatment was seen to cause the inclusion of lipidic bodies into the nucleus.

AB The photoluminescence (PL) of Er-doped silica films containing Ge nanoclusters synthesized by ion implantation was investigated. The area of the 1540 nm Er3+ PL peak was enhanced by up to a factor of 200 by the addition of Ge nanoclusters. The PL enhancement was found to be proportional to the concentration of Ge atoms. Control experiments with argon ion implantation were used to show that the enhancement is due to the presence of Ge and not radiation damage. Furthermore, the Er3+ PL was found to be strongly influenced by the postgrowth annealing and the crystallinity of the Ge nanoclusters.

AB Complex conductance spectra of single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) arrays have been measured from 0.1 to 50 GHz at temperatures between 4 and 293 K. Using purely capacitive contacts to separate contact effects from the NTs' response, the intrinsic SWCNT array conductance increased with frequency as f(s) with exponent s=0.67 +/- 0.08 regardless of array size and temperature. The spectra are consistent with the behavior found in many strongly inhomogeneous electronic systems. The origin of disorder in these arrays is likely topological rather than energetic.

AB Two nanoporous Pt-Ni alloys were synthesized by dealloying ternary amorphous Si-Pt-Ni precursors. Both foams have nearly the same composition, ligament diameter size, and density. However, their ligament patterns are different, depending on the microstructure of precursors. The difference in morphology is shown to have a profound effect on mechanical properties. The structure with well-aligned long nanoligaments exhibited over 50% higher hardness and stiffness than the structure with short random-oriented nanoligaments. These nanoporous Pt-Ni structures are thermally stable at 300 degrees C.

AB Laterally coupled charge sensing of quantum dots is highly desirable because it enables measurement even when conduction through the quantum dot itself is suppressed. In this work, we demonstrate such charge sensing in a double-top-gated metal-oxide-semiconductor system. The current through a point contact constriction integrated near a quantum dot shows sharp 2% changes corresponding to charge transitions between the dot and a nearby lead. We extract the coupling capacitance between the charge sensor and the quantum dot, and we show that it agrees well with a three-dimensional capacitance model of the integrated sensor and quantum dot system.

AB The magnetic and electronic structure of Mn in In0.965Mn0.035Sb ferromagnetic semiconductor thin film was studied by x-ray absorption spectroscopy and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism. Comparison with atomic multiplet calculations suggests that manganese substitutes on sites with tetrahedral symmetry. Strong magnetic dichroism was observed from 5 to 300 K, at an applied field of 2 T. The temperature dependence of dichroism indicates presence of two magnetic Mn species having very similar spectral features. A high temperature species dominates the dichroic response over 50-300 K and a low temperature species is observed below 50 K.

AB A soft x-ray absorption and x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) study of the ferromagnetism in solution-grown EuS nanocrystals (NCs) is reported. The absorption edges of Eu M(5) and M(4), S K, O K, and P K were probed to determine elementally specific contributions to the magnetism of EuS NCs. Differential spin absorption was observed by XMCD at the Eu M(5,4) edges confirming the presence of a magnetic moment on the Eu(2+) 4f shell. No dichroic signal was observed for S, O, or P. Vibrating sample magnetometry of ensembles of NCs shows ferromagnetic properties consistent with the XMCD studies.

AB Optical microscopy and atomic force microscopy were used to investigate the solidification process of the organic energetic material pentaerythritol tetranitrate thermally deposited on a silicon surface. The metastable films spontaneously undergo dendrite formation where the measured fractal dimensions indicate a diffusion-limited-aggregation mechanism. The branch growth rate was investigated as a function of temperature and fitted by a theoretical model that takes into account competing thermally activated processes of surface diffusion and molecular desorption. Consideration of the internal molecular degrees of freedom is shown to be essential for quantitative consistency between theory and experiment.

AB Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy has been used effectively in the analysis of elastomeric, soft materials and has been proven to be both sensitive to micro- and macroscopic changes associated with "aging" mechanisms. Traditional analyses, however, rely on empirical formulae containing a large number of (often arbitrary) independent variables. The resulting ambiguity can be circumvented largely by developing models of NMR observables that are based on basic polymer physics. We compare two such models, one previously published and one derived herein, along with two empirical expressions that describe the proton transverse magnetization decay associated with complex polymer networks. One particular extracted parameter, the proton-proton residual dipolar coupling (RDC), can be directly related to network topology, and a comparison of the extracted RDCs reveals high consistency among the models. An expression derived from the properties of a static Gaussian chain can minimize the number of parameters necessarily to describe the solid-like, networked proton population to a single independent parameter, the average RDC, D,,. The distribution of RDCs derived via this methodology is qualitatively similar to those derived from previously published multiple quantum techniques, although quantitative differences between the derived RDCs persist, suggesting that further analysis is necessary.

The method couples an Eulerian, field-theoretic description of polymer hydrodynamics with a Lagrangian technique for tracking particles of arbitrary shape and size. Results are presented which reproduce nanoparticle localization in diblock nanosphere composites and interfacial jamming in homopolymer blend nanocomposites. Some of the method's unique capabilities are demonstrated by simulating systems containing non-spherical particles, particles of multiple sizes, and surface driven self-assembly.

AB We describe the voltammetric measurement of the full oxidation of adsorbed CO on unsupported platinum electrocatalysts, with concomitant cyclic voltammetry of the hydrogen adsorption and desorption. The hydrogen region of platinum is used to parse the platinum surface into sites associated with weakly bound (WB) hydrogen and strongly bound (SB) hydrogen. By monitoring changes in the hydrogen region while following the two observed CO oxidation peaks, we are able to identify the WB sites as being the most active sites for CO(ads) electro-oxidation. The full oxidation peak is fitted to a model based on a modified Butler-Volmer equation that includes the two families of sites. Excellent agreement with experimental results is obtained, and the resulting fits yield the kinetic parameters for the two families of sites. When combined with coulometry, these kinetic analyses also show the importance of linear- and bridged-CO(ads) species in the electro-oxidation process. Limitations of the model and the role of CO(ads), dynamics amongst the various surface sites are discussed. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Stefan-Maxwell multicomponent transport equations have a lot of appeal because of their symmetry and because the diffusion coefficients are independent of composition for ideal gases. A simple numerical solution method, which can easily be extended to more components, is illustrated for the popular chemical-engineering film, penetration, and boundary-layer models with a particular example of evaporation of acetone and methanol through air. Extension of each model to other geometries and chemical systems is discussed. In the boundary-layer model there is no need to assume that both total concentration and density are constant.

AB In his 1931 papers, Onsager mentioned that his diffusion driving forces and fluxes, when multiplied and added pairwise, summed to the entropy generation. In 1945 he stated a minimum-dissipation principle, that any set of forces and fluxes which yield the entropy generation when so added would also yield a symmetric transport matrix. This last statement has been criticized by Coleman and Truesdell. This work discusses how to construct a transport formulation with a symmetric matrix and how to connect Onsager's forces and fluxes with gradients of mole fractions and species velocity differences.

AB Background: This study investigates the generation of HCl and other acid gases from boiling calcium chloride dominated waters at atmospheric pressure, primarily using numerical modeling. The main focus of this investigation relates to the long-term geologic disposal of nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain, Nevada, where pore waters around waste-emplacement tunnels are expected to undergo boiling and evaporative concentration as a result of the heat released by spent nuclear fuel. Processes that are modeled include boiling of highly concentrated solutions, gas transport, and gas condensation accompanied by the dissociation of acid gases, causing low-pH condensate.
Results: Simple calculations are first carried out to evaluate condensate pH as a function of HCl gas fugacity and condensed water fraction for a vapor equilibrated with saturated calcium chloride brine at 50-150 degrees C and 1 bar. The distillation of a calcium-chloride-dominated brine is then simulated with a reactive transport model using a brine composition representative of partially evaporated calcium-rich pore waters at Yucca Mountain. Results show a significant increase in boiling temperature from evaporative concentration, as well as low pH in condensates, particularly for dynamic systems where partial condensation takes place, which result in enrichment of HCl in condensates. These results are in qualitative agreement with experimental data from other studies.
Conclusion: The combination of reactive transport with multicomponent brine chemistry to study evaporation, boiling, and the potential for acid gas generation at the proposed Yucca Mountain repository is seen as an improvement relative to previously applied simpler batch evaporation models. This approach allows the evaluation of thermal, hydrological, and chemical (THC) processes in a coupled manner, and modeling of settings much more relevant to actual field conditions than the distillation experiment considered. The actual and modeled distillation experiments do not represent expected conditions in an emplacement drift, but nevertheless illustrate the potential for acid-gas generation at moderate temperatures (<150 degrees C).

AB The reaction mechanism and kinetics of the thermal decomposition of uranium dinitride/uranium sesquinitride to uranium mononitride under inert atmosphere at elevated temperature were studied. An increase in the lattice parameter of the UN(2)/alpha-U(2)N(3) phase was observed as the reaction temperature increased, corresponding to a continuous removal of nitrogen. Electron density calculations for these two compounds using XRD powder patterns of the samples utilizing charge-flipping technique were performed for the first time to visualize the decrease in nitrogen level as a function of temperature. Complete decomposition of UN(2) into alpha-U(2)N(3) at 675 degrees C and the UN formation after a partial decomposition of alpha-U(2)N(3) at 975 degrees C were also identified in this study. The activation energy for the decomposition of the UN(2)/alpha-U(2)N(3) phase into UN, 423.8 +/- 0.3 kJ/mol (101.3 kcal/mol), was determined under an inert argon atmosphere and is reported here experimentally for the first time.

AB We use a combined, theoretical and experimental, approach to investigate the spectroscopic properties and electronic structure of three ruthenium polypyridyl complexes, [Ru(tpy)(2)](2+), [Ru(tpy)(bpy)(H2O)](2+), and [Ru(tpy)(bpy)(Cl)](+) (tpy = 2,2':6,2 ''-terpyridine and bpy = 2,2'-bipyridine) in acetone, dichloromethane, and water. All three complexes display strong absorption bands in the visible region corresponding to a metal-to-ligand-charge-transfer (MLCT) transition, as well as the emission bands arising from the lowest lying (MLCT)-M-3 state. [Ru(tpy)(bpy)(Cl)](+) undergoes substitution of the Cl- ligand by H2O in the presence of water. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that the triplet potential energy surfaces of these molecules are complicated, with several metal-centered ((MC)-M-3) and (MLCT)-M-3 states very close in energy. Solvent effects are included in the calculations via the polarizable continuum model as well as explicitly, and it is shown that they are critical for proper characterization of the triplet excited states of these complexes.

DT Article
ID CHIRAL-SYMMETRY BREAKING; DUALITY
AB The center-stabilized multiflavor QCD* theories formulated on R-3 x S-1 exhibit both Abelian and non-Abelian confinement as a function of the S, radius, similar to the Seiberg-Witten theory as a function of the mass deformation parameter. For sufficiently small number of flavors and small r(S-1), we show Occurrence of a mass gap ill gauge fluctuations, and linear confinement. This is a regime of confinement without Continuous chiral symmetry breaking (chi SB). Unlike one-flavor theories where there is no phase transition in r(S-1), the multiflavor theories possess a single phase transition associated with breaking of the continuous chi S. We conjecture that the scale of the chi SB is parametrically tied up with the scale of Abelian to non-Abelian confinement transition. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB A new methodology for establishing the spatial representativeness of tower albedo measurements that are routinely used in validation of satellite retrievals from global land surface albedo and reflectance anisotropy products is presented. This method brings together knowledge of the intrinsic biophysical properties of a measurement site, and the surrounding landscape to produce a number of geostatistical attributes that describe the overall variability, spatial extent, strength of the spatial correlation, and spatial structure of surface albedo patterns at separate seasonal periods throughout the year. Variogram functions extracted from Enhanced Thematic Mapper Plus (ETM+) retrievals of surface albedo using multiple spatial and temporal thresholds were used to assess the degree to which a given point (tower) measurement is able to capture the intrinsic variability of the immediate landscape extending to a satellite pixel. A validation scheme was implemented over a wide range of forested landscapes, looking at both deciduous and coniferous sites, from tropical to boreal ecosystems. The experiment focused on comparisons between tower measurements of surface albedo acquired at local solar noon and matching retrievals from the MODerate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) (Collection V005) Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF)/albedo algorithm. Assessments over a select group of field stations with comparable landscape features and daily retrieval scenarios further demonstrate the ability of this technique to identify measurement sites that contain the intrinsic spatial and seasonal features of surface albedo over sufficiently large enough footprints for use in modeling and remote sensing studies. This approach, therefore, improves our understanding of product uncertainty both in terms of the representativeness of the field data and its relationship to the larger satellite pixel.

ID SURFACE-PLASMON RESONANCE; PENETRATING PEPTIDES; SINGLE; SPECTROSCOPY
AB Gold and silver nanoparticles display extraordinarily large apparent refractive indices near their plasmon resonance (PR) wavelengths. These nanoparticles show good contrast in a narrow spectral band but are poorly resolved at other wavelengths in differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy. The wavelength dependence of DIC contrast of gold/silver nanoparticles is interpreted in terms of Mie's theory and DIC working principles. We further exploit this wavelength dependence by modifying a DIC microscope to enable simultaneous imaging at two wavelengths. We demonstrate that gold/silver nanoparticles immobilized on the same glass slides through hybridization can be differentiated and imaged separately. High-contrast, video-rate images of living cells can be recorded both with and without illuminating the gold nanoparticle probes, providing definitive probe identification. Dual-wavelength DIC microscopy thus presents a new approach to the simultaneous detection of multiple probes of interest for high-speed live-cell imaging.

AB A portable, rapid, and sensitive assessment of subclinical organophosphorus (OP) agent exposure based on reactivation of cholinesterase (ChE) from OP-inhibited ChE using rat saliva (in vitro) was developed using an electrochemical sensor coupled with a microflow-injection system. The sensor was based on a carbon nanotube (CNT)-modified screen printed carbon electrode (SPE), which was integrated into a flow cell. Because of the extent of interindividual ChE activity variability, ChE biomonitoring often requires an initial baseline determination (noninhibited) of enzyme activity which is then directly compared with activity after OP exposure. This manuscript describes an alternative strategy where reactivation of the phosphorylated enzyme was exploited to enable measurement of both inhibited and baseline ChE activity (after reactivation by an oxime, i.e., pralidoxime iodide) in the same sample. The use of CNT makes the electrochemical detection of the products from enzymatic reactions more feasible with extremely high sensitivity (5% ChE inhibition) and selectivity. Paraoxon was selected as a model OP compound for in vitro inhibition studies. Some experimental parameters, e.g., inhibition and reactivation time, have been optimized such that 92-95% of ChE reactivation can be achieved over a broad range of ChE inhibition (5-94%) with paraoxon. The extent of enzyme inhibition using this electrochemical sensor correlates well with conventional enzyme activity measurements. On the basis of the double determinations of enzyme activity, this flow-injection device has been successfully used to detect paraoxon inhibition efficiency in saliva samples (95% of ChE activity is due to butyrylcholinesterase), which demonstrated its promise as a sensitive monitor of OP exposure in biological fluids. Since it excludes inter- or intraindividual variation in the normal levels of ChE, this new CNT-based electrochemical sensor thus provides a sensitive and quantitative tool for point-of-care assessment and noninvasive biomonitoring of the exposure to OP pesticides and chemical nerve agents.

AB In this work, single particle aerosol mass spectrometry (SPAMS) was used to identify the active drug ingredients in samples of multicomponent over-the-counter (OTC) drug tablets with minimal damage to the tablets. OTC drug tablets in various formulations were analyzed including single active ingredient tablets and multi-ingredient tablets. Using a sampling apparatus developed in-house, micrometer-sized particles were simultaneously dislodged from tablets and introduced to the SPAMS, where dual-polarity mass spectra were obtained from individual particles. Active ingredients were identified from the parent ions and fragment ions formed from each sample, and alarm files were developed for each active ingredient, allowing successful automated identification of each compound in a mixture. The alarm algorithm developed for SPAMS correctly identified all drug compounds in all single-ingredient and multi-ingredient tablets studied. A further study demonstrated the ability of this technique to identify the active ingredient in a single tablet analyzed in the presence of several other nonidentical tablets. In situ measurements were also made by sampling directly from a drug sample in its original bottle. A single tablet embedded in 11 identical tablets of different composition was detected in this manner. Overall, this work demonstrates the ability of the SPAMS technique to detect a target drug compound both in complex tablets, i.e., multidrug ingredient tablets, and complex sampling environments, i.e., multitablet sampling sources. The technique is practically nondestructive, leaving the characteristic shape, color, and imprint of a tablet intact for further analysis. Applications of this technique may include forensic and pharmaceutical analysis.

AB Samples of a naturally bioreduced, U-contaminated alluvial sediment were characterized with various microscopic and spectroscopic techniques and wet chemical extraction methods. The objective was to investigate U association and interaction with minerals of the sediment. Bioreduced sediment comprises similar to 10% of an alluvial aquifer adjacent to the Colorado River, in Rifle, CO, that was the site of a former U milling operation. Past and ongoing research has demonstrated that bioreduced sediment is elevated in solid-associated U, total organic carbon, and acid-volatile sulfide, and depleted in bioavailable Fe(III) confirming that sulfate and Fe(III) reduction have occurred naturally in the sediment SEM/EDS analyses demonstrated that framboidal pyrites (FeS2) of different sizes (similar to 10-20 mu m in diameter), and of various microcrystal morphology, degree of surface weathering, and internal porosity were abundant in the <53 mu m fraction (silt + clay) of the sediment and absent in adjacent sediments that were not bioreduced. SEM-EMPA, XRF, EXAFS, and XANES measurements showed elevated U was present in framboidal pyrite as both U(VI) and U(M. This result indicates that U may be sequestered in situ under conditions of microbially driven sulfate reduction and pyrite formation. Conversely, such pyrites in alluvial sediments provide a long-term source of U under conditions of slow oxidation, contributing to the persistence of U of some U plumes. These results may also help in developing remedial measures for U-contaminated aquifers.

AB The interaction of mercury (Hg) with dissolved natural organic matter (NOM) under equilibrium conditions is the focus of many studies but the kinetic controls on Hg-NOM complexation in aquatic systems have often been overlooked, We examined the rates of Hg-NOM complexation both in a contaminated Upper East Fork Poplar Creek (UEFPC) in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and in controlled laboratory experiments using reducible Hg (Hg(R)) measurements and C(18) solid phase extraction techniques. Of the filterable Hg at the headwaters of UEFPC, >90% was present as HgR and this fraction decreased downstream but remained >29% of the filterable Hg at all sites. The presence of higher HgR concentrations than would be predicted under equilibrium conditions in UEFPC and in experiments with a NOM isolate suggests that kinetic reactions are controlling the complexation between Hg and NOM. The slow formation of Hg-NOM complexes is attributed to competitive ligand exchange among various moieties and functional groups in NOM with a range of binding strengths and configurations. This study demonstrates the need to consider the effects of Hg-NOM complexation kinetics on processes such as Hg methylation and solid phase partitioning.

AB The Pearl River Delta region (PRD) of China has long suffered from severe ground-level ozone pollution. Knowledge of the sources of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is essential for ozone chemistry. In this work, a speciated VOC emission inventory was established on the basis of updated emissions and local VOC source profiles. The top 10 species, in terms of ozone formation potentials (OFPs), consisted of isoprene, mp-xylene, toluene, ethylene, propene, o-xylene, 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, 2-methyl-2-butene, 1-butene, and alpha-pinene. These species contributed only 35.9% to VOCs emissions but accounted for 64.1% of the OFP in the region. The spatial patterns of the VOC source inventory agreed well with city-based source apportionment results, especially for vehicle emissions and industry plus VOC product-related emissions. Mapping of the UPS and measured ozone concentrations indicated that the formation of higher ozone in the south and southeast of the PRD region differed from that in the Conghua area, a remote area in the north of the PRD. We recommend that the priorities for the control of VOC sources include motorcycles, gasoline vehicles, and solvent use because of their larger OFP contributions.

AB Satb1 and the closely related Satb2 proteins regulate gene expression and higher-order chromatin structure of multigene clusters in vivo. In examining the role of Satb proteins in murine embryonic stem (ES) cells, we find that Satb1(-/-) cells display an impaired differentiation potential and augmented expression of the pluripotency determinants Nanog, Klf4, and Tbx3. Metastable states of self-renewal and differentiation competence have been attributed to heterogeneity of ES cells in the expression of Nanog. Satb1(-/-) cultures have a higher proportion of Nanog high cells, and an increased potential to reprogram human B lymphocytes in cell fusion experiments. Moreover, Satb1-deficient ES cells show an increased expression of Satb2, and we find that forced Satb2 expression in wild-type ES cells antagonizes differentiation-associated silencing of Nanog and enhances the induction of NANOG in cell fusions with human B lymphocytes. An antagonistic function of Satb1 and Satb2 is also supported by the almost normal differentiation potential of Satb1(-/-) Satb2(-/-) ES cells. Taken together with the finding that both Satb1 and Satb2 bind the Nanog locus in vivo, our data suggest that the balance of Satb1 and Satb2 contributes to the plasticity of Nanog expression and ES cell pluripotency.

AB For a toposequence with increasing groundwater influence (Cambisol, Stagnosol, Histosol) and with different groundwater regimes (Histosols 1 and 2) in a forested watershed in the Fichtelgebirge (Germany), the speciation of sulfur (S) and iron (Fe) in the soils was assessed by X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) after anoxic and conventional oxic sample pretreatments. For samples with anoxic pretreatment, the contribution of reduced inorganic S compounds (monosulfide, pyrite) to total S increased with soil depth for the Cambisol and the Stagnosol, but decreased for the Histosols; the opposite trend was noticed for the contribution of reduced organic S (organic mono- and disulfides, thiols). The contribution of reduced S to the soil S pool increased and the contribution of oxidized S compounds decreased in the sequence Cambisol-Stagnosol-Histosol 1 (permanently anoxic). Histosol 2 (seasonally oxic) showed a markedly larger contribution of oxidized and intermediate S compounds to total S than Histosol 1. The dominating Fe-bearing phases in the Cambisol were Fe(III) oxyhydroxides; the contribution of sulfide-bound Fe was < 5% of total Fe in all horizons. In Histosol 1, the contribution of sulfide-bound Fe increased with soil depth up to 50% in the Cr horizon, whereas in Histosol 2 Fe(III) phases strongly dominated in all horizons. After conventional oxic sample pretreatment, the contribution of reduced inorganic S to total S was markedly decreased in all soils. In the organic surface horizons, the contribution of reduced organic S was increased to the same extent: the contribution of oxidized S (sulfate) remained more or less unchanged. In the mineral soil, the contribution of sulfate and the mean oxidation state of sulfur (MOS) were strongly increased after oxic sample preparation. In Histosol 1, oxic sample pretreatment resulted in oxidation of labile Fe(II) compounds, probably sulfides or Fe(II)-S-org-complexes, to Fe(III). Our study shows that for anoxic wetland soils which contain inorganic sulfide and/or divalent Fe, the exclusion Of O(2) during the entire period between sampling and analysis is crucial for a correct S and Fe speciation. Only after appropriate sample preparation, clear relationships between the mean oxidation states of S and Fe (MOFe) on one hand and soil hydrological conditions on the other become evident: a concomitant systematic decrease of MOS and MOFe from the well-aerated Cambisol to the permanently anoxic Histosol 1, and larger MOS and MOFe in the seasonally oxic Histosol 2 than in Histosol 1 indicate a close coupling of S and Fe cycling in the soils. Finally, the results of our study suggest that in organic horizons of wetland soils inorganic sulfide S is overestimated and reduced organic S is underestimated by S K-edge XANES, if a significant portion of the thiol groups in reduced organic S is complex-bound to Fe(2+) or other chalcophilic metal cations.

AB A magnetic loading technique was used to ramp load single-crystal [100] lithium fluoride specimens to peak stresses of 5-114 GPa. Wave analysis of in situ particle velocity profiles was used to estimate the compressive strength of LiF at peak stress. It was found that the strength increased with peak stress and showed two distinct regions of hardening; the first is believed to be governed by strain hardening and the second by pressure hardening. The quasielastic strain obtained from the initial part of the unloading was shown to saturate at about 1.3% for peak stresses greater than approximately 30 GPa. Over the studied pressure range, the measured strength of LiF varied from its initial value of 0.08 to about 1.1 GPa at the highest compressed state of 114 GPa. Comparison of the measured strength to results from two strength models showed good agreement. It was demonstrated that the strength of LiF introduces systematic error of about 10% when used as an interferometer window for measurements of material strength in isentropic compression experiments.

AB We describe the deposition of insulating tantalum oxide thin films under conditions of controlled ion bombardment, which can be achieved using reactive sputtering on 90 degrees off-axis substrates with an applied substrate bias. Capacitive measurements of Ta(2)O(5) deposited on unbiased off-axis substrates indicate low frequency dielectric constants as high as epsilon(r) similar to 300. Low frequency loss tangents are high, tan delta > 0.5, and have a pronounced frequency dependence. Deposition of the film off-axis with sufficient applied rf bias to the substrate (negative bias >-70 V) recovers the on-axis properties typical of Ta(2)O(5), e.g., epsilon(r) similar to 22 and tan delta similar to 0.02. The recovery of normal dielectric behavior is attributed to the ion bombardment of the growing film under substrate bias, similar to on-axis depositions but absent from depositions on off-axis substrates with no applied substrate bias. We suggest that insufficiently bombarded films develop a Maxwell-Wagner type polarization along columnar voids. The void structure and the associated dielectric response vary with distance from the sputtering source due to variations in ion density and angle from the sputtering source. A similar dielectric response is observed in depositions on on-axis substrates as a function of angle from the central sputter gun axis. Our results suggest that ion bombardment is necessary for good quality sputtered dielectric films but that a controlled Ar(+) flux is essentially equivalent to the uncontrolled O(2)(-)/O(2-) flux of on-axis reactive sputtering.

AB We demonstrate direct writing of ferromagnetism in hydrogenated Ga(0.96)Mn(0.04)As using femtosecond laser pulses. Tight beam focusing results in the local dissociation of Mn-H defect complexes with sub-500 nm resolution and no detected surface damage. Dot, line, and Hall-bar patterns were drawn in the hydrogenated films by translating the sample during laser irradiation. Magnetotransport measurements on the Hall-bar patterns reveal recovery of hole-mediated ferromagnetism with a Curie temperature of 50 K while magnetic anisotropy is similar to prehydrogenated Ga(0.96)Mn(0.04)As. Interruption of the laser beam during writing leads to the formation of a paramagnetic gap with controllable conductance separating two ferromagnetic line segments. These features, along with the laser tunability of magnetic and electrical properties in the activated regions, represent a planar approach to defining all-semiconductor spintronic structures for device applications.

AB GeO2 was grown by a slot-plane-antenna (SPA) high density radical oxidation, and the oxidation kinetics of radical oxidation GeO2 was examined. By the SPA radical oxidation, no substrate orientation dependence of growth rate attributed to highly reactive oxygen radicals with low oxidation activation energy was demonstrated, which is highly beneficial to three-dimensional structure devices, such as multigate field-effect transistors, to form conformal gate dielectrics. The electrical properties of an aluminum oxide (Al2O3) metal-oxide-semiconductor gate stack with a GeO2 interfacial layer were investigated, showing very low interface state density (D-it), 1.4 x 10(11) cm(-2) eV(-1). By synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy, the conduction and the valence band offsets of GeO2 with respect to Ge were estimated to be 1.2 +/- 0.3 and 3.6 +/- 0.1 eV, which are sufficiently high to suppress gate leakage.

AB The Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire phenomenological theory is employed to model and predict the ferroelectric phase transitions and properties of single-domain potassium niobate (KNbO3). Based on the LGD theory and the experimental data of KNbO3 single crystal, an eighth-order polynomial of free energy function is proposed. The fitted coefficients are validated by comparing to a set of experimental measured values including phase transition temperatures, spontaneous polarization, dielectric constants, and lattice constants. The effects of hydrostatic pressure and external electric field on phase transition temperatures and piezoelectric coefficients are investigated. The free energy function may be used to predict ferroelectric domain structures and properties of KNbO3 bulk and films by phase-field approach. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

TI Thermal transport in CO2 laser irradiated fused silica: In situ
measurements and analysis

ID SURFACE-TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENT; LASER-BEAM; GLASS; CONDUCTIVITY;
DEPENDENCE; RADIATION; EMISSIVITY
AB In situ spatial and temporal temperature measurements of pristine fused silica surfaces heated with a 10.6 mu m CO2 laser were obtained using an infrared radiation thermometer based on a mercury cadmium telluride camera. Laser spot sizes ranged from 250 to 1000 mu m diameter with peak axial irradiance levels of 0.13-16 kW/cm(2). For temperatures below 2800 K, the measured steady-state surface temperature is observed to rise linearly with both increasing beam size and incident. laser irradiance. The effective thermal conductivity estimated over this range was approximately 2 W/m-K, in good agreement with classical calculations based on phonon heat capacities. Similarly, time-dependent temperature measurements up to 2000 K yielded thermal diffusivity, values which were close to reported values of 7 x 10(-7) m(2)/s. Above similar to 2800 K, the fused silica surface temperature asymptotically approaches 3 100 K as laser power is further increased, consistent with the onset of evaporative heat losses near the silica boiling point. These results show that in the laser heating regime studied here, the T-3 temperature dependent thermal conductivity due to radiation transport can be neglected, but at temperatures above 2800 K heat transport due to evaporation must also be considered. The thermal transport in fused silica up to 2800 K, over a range of conditions, can then be adequately described by a linear diffusive heat equation assuming constant thermal properties.

AB Alloying is a commonly accepted method to tailor properties of semiconductor materials for specific applications. Only a limited number of semiconductor alloys can be easily synthesized in the full composition range. Such alloys are, in general, formed of component elements that are well matched in terms of ionicity, atom size, and electronegativity. In contrast there is a broad class of potential semiconductor alloys formed of component materials with distinctly different properties. In most instances these mismatched alloys are immiscible under standard growth conditions. Here we report on the properties of GaN1-xAsx, a highly mismatched, immiscible alloy system that was successfully synthesized in the whole composition range using a nonequilibrium low temperature molecular beam epitaxy technique. The alloys are amorphous in the composition range of 0.17 < x < 0.75 and crystalline outside this region. The amorphous films have smooth morphology, homogeneous composition, and sharp, well defined optical absorption edges. The band gap energy varies in a broad energy range from similar to 3.4 eV in GaN to similar to 0.8 eV at x similar to 0.85. The reduction in the band gap can be attributed primarily to the downward movement of the conduction band for alloys with x > 0.2, and to the upward movement of the valence band for alloys with x < 0.2. The unique features of the band structure offer an opportunity of using GaN1-xAsx alloys for various types of solar power conversion devices. (C) 2009 American Institute of Physics.

AB GTP cyclohydrolase I (GCYH-I) is an essential Zn(2+)-dependent enzyme that catalyzes the first step of the de novo folate biosynthetic pathway in bacteria and plants, the 7-deazapurine biosynthetic pathway in Bacteria and Archaea, and the biopterin pathway in mammals. We recently reported the discovery of a new prokaryotic-specific GCYH-I (GCYH-IB) that displays no sequence identity to the canonical enzyme and is present in similar to 25% of bacteria, the majority of which lack the canonical GCYH-I (renamed GCYH-IA). Genomic and genetic analyses indicate that in those organisms possessing both enzymes, e. g., Bacillus subtilis, GCYH-IA and -IB are functionally redundant, but differentially expressed. Whereas GCYH-IA is constitutively expressed, GCYH-IB is expressed only under Zn(2+)-limiting conditions. These observations are consistent with the hypothesis that GCYH-IB functions to allow folate biosynthesis during Zn(2+) starvation. Here, we present biochemical and structural data showing that bacterial GCYH-IB, like GCYH-IA, belongs to the tunneling-fold (T-fold) superfamily. However, the GCYH-IA and -IB enzymes exhibit significant differences in global structure and activesite architecture. While GCYH-IA is a unimodular, homodecameric, Zn(2+)-dependent enzyme, GCYH-IB is a bimodular, homotetrameric enzyme activated by a variety of divalent cations. The structure of GCYH-IB and the broad metal dependence exhibited by this enzyme further underscore the mechanistic plasticity that is emerging for the T-fold superfamily. Notably, while humans possess the canonical GCYH-IA enzyme, many clinically important human pathogens possess only the GCYH-IB enzyme, suggesting that this enzyme is a potential new molecular target for antibacterial development.

AB Under conditions of nitrogen stress, leguminous plants form symbioses with soil bacteria called rhizobia. This partnership results in the development of structures called root nodules, in which differentiated endosymbiotic bacteria reduce molecular dinitrogen for the host. The establishment of rhizobium-legume symbioses requires the bacterial synthesis of oligosaccharides, exopolysaccharides, and capsular polysaccharides. Previous studies suggested that the 3-deoxy-D-manno-oct-2-ulopyranosonic acid (Kdo) homopolymeric capsular polysaccharide produced by strain Sinorhizobium meliloti Rm1021 contributes to symbiosis with Medicago sativa under some conditions. However, a conclusive symbiotic role for this polysaccharide could not be determined due to a lack of mutants affecting its synthesis. In this study, we have further characterized the synthesis, secretion, and symbiotic function of the Kdo homopolymeric capsule. We showed that mutants lacking the enigmatic rkp-1 gene cluster fail to display the Kdo capsule on the cell surface but accumulate an intracellular polysaccharide of unusually high M(r). In addition, we have demonstrated that mutations in kdsB2, smb20804, and smb20805 affect the polymerization of the Kdo homopolymeric capsule. Our studies also suggest a role for the capsular polysaccharide in symbiosis. Previous reports have shown that the overexpression of rkpZ from strain Rm41 allows for the symbiosis of exoY mutants of Rm1021 that are unable to produce the exopolysaccharide succinoglycan. Our results demonstrate that mutations in the rkp-1 cluster prevent this phenotypic suppression of exoY mutants, although mutations in kdsB2, smb20804, and smb20805 have no effect.

TI An Evaluation of ENSO Asymmetry in the Community Climate System Models:

OCEAN; CONVECTION
AB The asymmetry between El Nino and La Nina is a key aspect of ENSO that needs to be simulated well by models in order to fully capture the role of ENSO in the climate system. Here the asymmetry between the two phases of ENSO in five successive versions of the Community Climate System Model (CCSM1, CCSM2, CCSM3 at T42 resolution, CCSM3 at T85 resolution, and the latest CCSM3 + NR, with the Neale and Richter convection scheme) is evaluated. Different from the previous studies, not only is the surface signature of ENSO asymmetry examined, but so too is its subsurface signature. By comparing the differences among these models as well as the differences between the models and the observations, an understanding of the causes of the ENSO asymmetry is sought.
An underestimate of the ENSO asymmetry is noted in all of the models, but the latest version with the Neale and Richter scheme (CCSM3 + NR) is getting closer to the observations than the earlier versions. The net surface heat flux is found to damp the asymmetry in the SST field in both the models and observations, but the damping effect in the models is weaker than that in the observations, thus excluding a role of the surface heat flux in contributing to the weaker asymmetry in the SST anomalies associated with ENSO. Examining the subsurface signatures of ENSO-the thermocline depth and the associated subsurface temperature for the western and eastern Pacific-reveals the same bias; that is, the asymmetry in the models is weaker than that in the observations.
The analysis of the corresponding Atmospheric Model Intercomparison Project (AMIP) runs in conjunction with the coupled runs suggests that the weaker asymmetry in the subsurface signatures in the models is related to the lack of asymmetry in the zonal wind stress over the central Pacific, which in turn is due to a lack of sufficient asymmetry in deep convection (i.e., the nonlinear dependence of the deep convection on SST). In particular, the lack of a westward shift in the deep convection in the models in response to a cold phase SST anomaly is found as a common factor that is responsible for the weak asymmetry in the models. It is also suggested that a more eastward extension of the deep convection in response to a warm phase SST anomaly may also help to increase the asymmetry of ENSO. The better performance of CCSM3 + NR is apparently linked to an enhanced convection over the eastern Pacific during the warm phase of ENSO. Apparently, either a westward shift of deep convection in response to a cold phase SST anomaly or an increase of convection over the eastern Pacific in response to a warm phase SST anomaly leads to an increase in the asymmetry of zonal wind stress and therefore an increase in the asymmetry of subsurface signal, favoring an increase in ENSO asymmetry.

AB Adsorption at the mineral-water interface is ail important process governing metal ion concentration and mobility in aqueous systems. Ferric iron oxyhydroxide nanoparticles possess a large capacity for the adsorption of heavy metals but quantification of metal uptake and sequestration is challenging due to the tendency of natural nanoparticles to aggregate in natural waters. We studied the effects of aggregation via pH, ionic strength, drying, and freezing on the uptake and release of copper from ferrihydrite nanoparticles employing small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) studies of aggregate morphology, macroscopic Cu(II) sorption and desorption batch experiments, and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectroscopic studies of copper sorption geometries. Results show that the mechanism of aggregation has a large effect upon aggregate morphology and consequently on the net sorption/retention of ions from solution. While aggregation reduces the total amount of copper that can be adsorbed, it also may introduce physical constraints to desorption and/or increased proportions of higher strength binding sites that lead to greater retention, and hence more effective sequestration, of metal ion contaminants.

AB Several popular force fields, namely, CHARMM, AMBER, OPLS-AA, and MM3, have been tested for their ability to reproduce highly accurate quantum mechanical potential energy curves for noncovalent interactions in the benzene dimer, the benzene-CH(4) complex, and the benzene-H(2)S complex. All of the force fields are semi-quantitatively correct, but none of them is consistently reliable quantitatively. Re-optimization of Lennard-Jones parameters and symmetry-adapted perturbation theory analysis for the benzene dimer suggests that better agreement cannot be expected unless more flexible functional forms (particularly for the electrostatic contributions) are employed for the empirical force fields.

AB This paper reports the transport and sorption properties of poly(fluoroalkoxyphosphazene) (PFAP) membranes for carbon dioxide and nitrogen in both pure and mixed gas experiments. The CO2 permeability decreased from 336 to 142 Barters with an increase in the CO2/N-2 ideal separation factor from 12 to 21 as the membrane temperature was decreased from 303 K to 258 K at feed pressure of 2.9 bars. At lower feed pressure (1.5 bars) the CO2 permeability decreased from 327 to 140 Barrers, while the CO2/N-2 ideal separation factor increased from 13 to 22 over the same temperature range. CO2 sorption isotherms were measured using the pressure decay equilibrium method. Solubility of CO2 was determined using the sorption isotherms and the diffusion coefficients were calculated from CO2 permeabilities and solubilities. Sorption isotherms were linear at each temperature for the pressure range studied and the enthalpy of sorption was -5.8 kcal/mol. The solubility coefficient values for CO2 increased from 0.95 to 5.43 cm(3) CO2(STP)/cm(3) polymer atm whereas the diffusion coefficient decreased from 2.71 x 10(-6) to 0.19 x 10(-6) cm(2)/s as the temperature decreased from 303 K to 258 K.

AB Voltage-gated proton channels have been described in different cells and organisms since the early '80s, but the first member of the family, Hv1, was cloned only recently. The Hv1 channel was found to contain a voltage-sensing domain (VSD), similar to those of voltage-gated sodium, potassium and calcium channels. All these other channels also contain a pore domain, which forms a central pore at the interface of the four subunits. The pore domain is missing in Hv1. This raised several questions on the location of the proton pore and on the mechanism of gating. Here, we briefly review our effort to understand the structural organization of Hv1 channels and discuss the relationship between the gating of Hv1 and the gating of ion-conducting pores recently discovered in the VSDs of mutant voltage-gated potassium and sodium channels.

AB The compressive constitutive behavior of a closed-cell aluminum foam (ALPORAS) manufactured by Shinko Wire Co. in Japan was evaluated under static and dynamic loading conditions as a function of temperature. High-strain-rate tests (1000-2000 s(-1)) were conducted using a split-Hopkinson pressure bar (SHPB). Quasi-static and intermediate-strain-rate tests were conducted on a hydraulic load frame. A small but discernable change in the flow stress behavior as a function of strain rate was measured. The deformation behavior of the Al-foam was however found to be strongly temperature dependent under both quasi-static and dynamic loading. Localized deformation and stress state instability during testing of metal foams is discussed in detail since the mechanical behavior over the entire range of strain rates indicates non-uniform deformation. Additionally, investigation of the effect of residual stresses created during manufacturing on the mechanical behavior was investigated. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Miniature tensile specimens, having various sizes and geometries, are often used to measure the mechanical properties of bulk nanostructured materials. However, these samples are generally too small for use with conventional extensometers so that the strains are usually calculated from the crosshead displacements. This study uses experimental results and finite element modeling (FEM) to critically evaluate the influence of the specimen dimensions and strain measurement methods on the tensile curves obtained from miniature specimens. Using coarse-grained Cu as a model material, the results demonstrate that the values of strain obtained from the crosshead displacement are critically influenced by the specimen dimensions such that the uniform elongation and the post-necking elongation both increase with decreasing gauge length and increasing specimen thickness. The results provide guidance on the optimum procedures for the tensile testing of miniature specimens of both coarse-grained and nanostructured materials. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The effect of stacking fault energy (SFE) on the mechanical properties was investigated in Ni-Co alloys which have minimum solution hardening effects. Cobalt reduces the SFE in nickel and this promotes grain refinement during processing and increases the dislocation and twin densities. A reduction in SFE increases strength and tensile ductility. The higher strength is due to grain refinement and higher dislocation and pre-existing twin densities whereas the higher ductility is attributed to a higher work hardening rate.

AB Mapping of refractive index patterns with sub-wavelength resolution is achieved using Near-field Scanning Optical Microscopy (NSOM) in reflection mode. Imaging of index pattern is performed on surface gratings photo-imprinted in As(2)S(3) films. The NSOM is adapted with a near infrared laser which wavelength (785 nm) is chosen to be within the transparency window of the glass film therefore allowing consistent measure of reflected light. Quantitative measurements of photo-induced index changes can then be obtained from knowledge of the initial film index. Images of gratings with a period of 0.5 micron are easily collected therefore demonstrating sub-wavelength spatial resolution. The technique permits to concurrently obtain a topographic image and index image of the gratings thereby permitting to quantify the extent of photodarkening and photoexpansion simultaneously. It is shown that relief gratings tend to vanish in films aged in air for several months however the index gratings remain. (c) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The bionanocomposite film consisting of glucose oxidase/Pt/functional graphene sheets/chitosan (GOD/Pt/FGS/chitosan) for glucose sensing is described. With the electrocatalytic synergy of FGS and Pt nanoparticles to hydrogen peroxide, a sensitive biosensor with a detection limit of 0.6 mu M glucose was achieved. The biosensor also has good reproducibility, long-term stability and negligible interfering signals from ascorbic acid and uric acid comparing with the response to glucose. The large surface area and good electrical conductivity of graphene suggests that graphene is a potential candidate as a sensor material. The hybrid nanocomposite glucose sensor provides new opportunity for clinical diagnosis and point-of-care applications. (C) 2009 Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Theory and experiment are compared for the electron-impact double ionization of Mg. Direct ionization cross sections, involving the simultaneous ionization of both 3s electrons, are calculated using a non-perturbative time-dependent close-coupling method. Indirect ionization cross sections, involving the ionization of either a 2p or 2s electron followed by autoionization, are calculated using a perturbative time-independent distorted-wave method. At low energies the direct ionization cross sections are found to be in good agreement with experiments, while at the higher energies the indirect ionization cross sections are also found to be in good agreement with experiments.

An intermediate phase, which has a narrow composition range with the monoclinic Gd5Si2Ge2-type structure, space group P112(1)/a, was found to exist at x=2.95 +/- 0.05. The Rietveld powder diffraction profile fitting technique was used to refine the crystal structures, lattice parameters, and the atomic positions. The phase relationships of the Ce5Si4-xGex pseudobinary system after heat treatment were established from these data. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

ID BENCHMARK SCENARIOS; BROKEN SYMMETRIES
AB We present the results of a search for Higgs bosons predicted in two-Higgs-doublet models, in the case where the Higgs bosons decay to tau lepton pairs, using 1.8 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity of pp collisions recorded by the CDF II experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron. Studying the mass distribution in events where one or both tau leptons decay leptonically, no evidence for a Higgs boson signal is observed. The result is used to infer exclusion limits in the two-dimensional space of tan beta versus m(A) (the ratio of the vacuum expectation values of the two Higgs doublets and the mass of the pseudoscalar boson, respectively).

TI Field-Induced Bose-Einstein Condensation of Triplons up to 8 K in
Sr3Cr2O8
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID QUANTUM CRITICAL-POINT; NOBEL LECTURE; TLCUCL3; MAGNONS; MODEL
AB Single crystals of the spin dimer system Sr3Cr2O8 have been grown for the first time. Magnetization, heat capacity, and magnetocaloric effect data up to 65 T reveal magnetic order between applied fields of H-c1 similar to 30.4 T and H-c2 similar to 62 T. This field-induced order persists up to T-c(max)similar to 8 K at H similar to 44 T, the highest observed in any quantum magnet where H-c2 is experimentally accessible. We fit the temperature-field phase diagram boundary close to H-c1 using the expression T-c=A(H-H-c1)(nu). The exponent nu=0.65(2), obtained at temperatures much smaller than T-c(max), is that of the 3D Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) universality class. This finding strongly suggests that Sr3Cr2O8 is a new realization of a triplon BEC where the universal regimes corresponding to both H-c1 and H-c2 are accessible at He-4 temperatures.

AB An experimental study of the O-16(e,e(')K(+))(Lambda)N-16 reaction has been performed at Jefferson Lab. A thin film of falling water was used as a target. This permitted a simultaneous measurement of the p(e,e(')K(+))Lambda,Sigma(0) exclusive reactions and a precise calibration of the energy scale. A ground-state binding energy of 13.76 +/- 0.16 MeV was obtained for N-16(Lambda) with better precision than previous measurements on the mirror hypernucleus O-16(Lambda). Precise energies have been determined for peaks arising from a Lambda in s and p orbits coupled to the p(1/2) and p(3/2) hole states of the N-15 core nucleus.

AB Recent lattice measurements have given accurate estimates of the quark condensates in the proton. We use these results to significantly improve the dark matter predictions in benchmark models within the constrained minimal supersymmetric standard model. The predicted spin-independent cross sections are at least an order of magnitude smaller than previously suggested and our results have significant consequences for dark matter searches.

ID WAVE TURBULENCE; TOKAMAKS; REVERSAL; PLASMA
AB Starting from a phase space conserving gyrokinetic formulation, a systematic derivation of parallel momentum conservation uncovers a novel mechanism by which microturbulence may drive intrinsic rotation. This mechanism, which appears in the gyrokinetic formulation through the parallel nonlinearity, emerges due to charge separation induced by the polarization drift. The derivation and physical discussion of this mechanism will be pursued throughout this Letter.

AB The effect of the Proca photon mass m(ph) and cosmic vector potential A(C) on the dynamics of solar wind is considered. For large-enough values of the parameter A(C)m(ph)(2), the solar wind structure at a distance of similar to 40 AU from the Sun should change significantly with respect to the actual observed flow. The absence of such deviations gives an upper bound on the parameter A(C)m(ph)(2) 9 orders of magnitude less than in laboratory experiments measuring torque on a toroidal magnet.

TI New Measurements of the European Muon Collaboration Effect in Very Light
Nuclei
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID INELASTIC ELECTRON-SCATTERING; DEPENDENCE
AB New Jefferson Lab data are presented on the nuclear dependence of the inclusive cross section from (2)H, (3)He, (4)He, (9)Be and (12)C for 0.3 < x < 0.9, Q(2)approximate to 3-6 GeV(2). These data represent the first measurement of the EMC effect for (3)He at large x and a significant improvement for (4)He. The data do not support previous A-dependent or density-dependent fits to the EMC effect and suggest that the nuclear dependence of the quark distributions may depend on the local nuclear environment.

TI Nature of the Magnetic Order and Origin of Induced Ferroelectricity in
TbMnO3
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID EXCHANGE SCATTERING; POLARIZATION
AB The magnetic structures which endow TbMnO3 with its multiferroic properties have been reassessed on the basis of a comprehensive soft x-ray resonant scattering (XRS) study. The selectivity of XRS facilitated separation of the various contributions (Mn L-2 edge, Mn 3d moments; Tb M-4 edge, Tb 4f moments), while its variation with azimuth provided information on the moment direction of distinct Fourier components. When the data are combined with a detailed group theory analysis, a new picture emerges of the ferroelectric transition at 28 K. Instead of being driven by the transition from a collinear to a noncollinear magnetic structure, as has previously been supposed, it is shown to occur between two noncollinear structures.

TI Global Observations of the Interstellar Interaction from the

DT Article
ID WIND TERMINATION SHOCK; SOLAR-WIND; MAGNETIC-FIELD; HELIOSHEATH;
VOYAGER-1
AB The Sun moves through the local interstellar medium, continuously emitting ionized, supersonic solar wind plasma and carving out a cavity in interstellar space called the heliosphere. The recently launched Interstellar Boundary Explorer (IBEX) spacecraft has completed its first all-sky maps of the interstellar interaction at the edge of the heliosphere by imaging energetic neutral atoms (ENAs) emanating from this region. We found a bright ribbon of ENA emission, unpredicted by prior models or theories, that may be ordered by the local interstellar magnetic field interacting with the heliosphere. This ribbon is superposed on globally distributed flux variations ordered by both the solar wind structure and the direction of motion through the interstellar medium. Our results indicate that the external galactic environment strongly imprints the heliosphere.

TI Width and Variation of the ENA Flux Ribbon Observed by the Interstellar
Boundary Explorer
SO SCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
AB The dominant feature in Interstellar Boundary Explorer ( IBEX) sky maps of heliospheric energetic neutral atom (ENA) flux is a ribbon of enhanced flux that extends over a broad range of ecliptic latitudes and longitudes. It is narrow (similar to 20 degrees average width) but long ( extending over 300 in the sky) and is observed at energies from 0.2 to 6 kilo-electron volts. We demonstrate that the flux in the ribbon is a factor of 2 to 3 times higher than that of the more diffuse, globally distributed heliospheric ENA flux. The ribbon is most pronounced at similar to 1 kilo-electron volt. The average width of the ribbon is nearly constant, independent of energy. The ribbon is likely the result of an enhancement in the combined solar wind and pickup ion populations in the heliosheath.

TI Structures and Spectral Variations of the Outer Heliosphere in IBEX
Energetic Neutral Atom Maps
SO SCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
ID TERMINATION SHOCK; SOLAR-WIND
AB The Interstellar Boundary Explorer ( IBEX) has obtained all-sky images of energetic neutral atoms emitted from the heliosheath, located between the solar wind termination shock and the local interstellar medium (LISM). These flux maps reveal distinct nonthermal (0.2 to 6 kilo-electron volts) heliosheath proton populations with spectral signatures ordered predominantly by ecliptic latitude. The maps show a globally distributed population of termination-shock-heated protons and a superimposed ribbonlike feature that forms a circular arc in the sky centered on ecliptic coordinate (longitude lambda, latitude beta) = (221 degrees, 39 degrees), probably near the direction of the LISM magnetic field. Over the IBEX energy range, the ribbon's nonthermal ion pressure multiplied by its radial thickness is in the range of 70 to 100 picodynes per square centimeter AU ( AU, astronomical unit), which is significantly larger than the 30 to 60 picodynes per square centimeter AU of the globally distributed population.

AB Simulations of energetic neutral atom (ENA) maps predict flux magnitudes that are, in some cases, similar to those observed by the Interstellar Boundary Explorer ( IBEX) spacecraft, but they miss the ribbon. Our model of the heliosphere indicates that the local interstellar medium (LISM) magnetic field (B-LISM) is transverse to the line of sight (LOS) along the ribbon, suggesting that the ribbon may carry its imprint. The force-per-unit area on the heliopause from field line draping and the LISM ram pressure is comparable with the ribbon pressure if the LOS similar to 30 to 60 astronomical units and B-LISM similar to 2.5 microgauss. Although various models have advantages in accounting for some of the observations, no model can explain all the dominant features, which probably requires a substantial change in our understanding of the processes that shape our heliosphere.

AB Neutral gas of the local interstellar medium flows through the inner solar system while being deflected by solar gravity and depleted by ionization. The dominating feature in the energetic neutral atom Interstellar Boundary Explorer ( IBEX) all-sky maps at low energies is the hydrogen, helium, and oxygen interstellar gas flow. The He and O flow peaked around 8 February 2009 in accordance with gravitational deflection, whereas H dominated after 26 March 2009, consistent with approximate balance of gravitational attraction by solar radiation pressure. The flow distribu
