AB Objective: Currently in the United States, more than one in three psychiatric residents are international medical graduates (IMGs). In light of forecasts of physician shortages, this proportion is likely to continue growing. Although central to psychiatric care, sexual health competence levels of IMGs may be lower than those of U. S. graduates.
Methods: The authors conducted a nonsystematic review of the literature and online data to establish the learning needs of IMGs in this area.
Results: Data on five areas are summarized: demographic and sociocultural data of IMGs in the United States; the need for sexual medicine competence for practicing psychiatrists; how sexual health is currently taught in foreign medical schools; attitudes toward sexuality and sexual problems among physicians and patients of different cultures; and the management of sexual issues, including sexual boundaries, by IMGs.
Conclusion: The authors found evidence suggesting that IMGs from areas most culturally dissimilar to the United States are likely to benefit from sexual medicine curricula in the context of cultural competence training. The diversity and resilience of IMGs are emphasized. Implications for immediate training and future research are outlined.

AB We provide an analysis of thread-management techniques that increase performance or reduce energy in multicore and Simultaneous Multithreaded (SMT) cores. Thread delaying reduces energy consumption by running the core containing the critical thread at maximum frequency while scaling down the frequency and voltage of the cores containing noncritical threads. In this article, we provide an insightful breakdown of thread delaying on a simulated multi-core microprocessor. Thread balancing improves overall performance by giving higher priority to the critical thread in the issue queue of an SMT core. We provide a detailed breakdown of performance results for thread-balancing, identifying performance benefits and limitations. For those benchmarks where a performance benefit is not possible, we introduce a novel thread-balancing mechanism on an SMT core that can reduce energy consumption. We have performed a detailed study on an Intel microprocessor simulator running parallel applications. Thread delaying can reduce energy consumption by 4% to 44% with negligible performance loss. Thread balancing can increase performance by 20% or can reduce energy consumption by 23%.

DIAGNOSIS
AB The nanoscale size and unique optical properties of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have made them attractive as central photoluminescent scaffolds for a variety of biosensing platforms. In this report we functionalize QDs with dye-labeled peptides using two different linkage chemistries to yield Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET)-based sensors capable of monitoring either enzymatic activity or ionic presence. The first sensor targets the proteolytic activity of caspase 3, a key downstream effector of apoptosis. This QD conjugate utilized carbodiimide chemistry to covalently link dye-labeled peptide substrates to the terminal carboxyl groups on the QD's surface hydrophilic ligands in a quantitative manner. Caspase 3 cleaved the peptide substrate and disrupted QD donor-dye acceptor FRET providing signal transduction of enzymatic activity and allowing derivation of relevant Michaelis-Menten kinetic descriptors. The second sensor was designed to monitor Ca2+ ions that are ubiquitous in many biological processes. For this sensor, Cu+-catalyzed [3 + 2] azide-alkyne cycloaddition was exploited to attach a recently developed azide-functionalized CalciumRuby-CI indicator dye to a cognate alkyne group present on the terminus of a modified peptide. The labeled peptide also expressed a polyhistidine sequence, which facilitated its subsequent metal-affinity coordination to the QD surface establishing the final FRET sensing construct. Adding exogenous Ca2+ to the sensor solution increased the dyes fluorescence, altering the donor-acceptor emission ratio and manifested a dissociation constant similar to that of the native dye. These results highlight the potential for combining peptides with QDs using different chemistries to create sensors for monitoring chemical compounds and biological processes.

AB Precipitation strengthening is investigated in binary Al-0.1Sc, Al-0.1Zr and ternary Al-0.1Sc-0.1Zr (at.%) alloys aged isochronally between 200 and 600 degrees C. Precipitation of Al(3)Sc (L1(2)) commences between 200 and 250 degrees C in Al-0.1Sc, reaching a 670 MPa peak microhardness at 325 degrees C. For Al-0.1Zr, precipitation of Al(3)Zr (L1(2)) initiates between 350 and 375 degrees C, resulting in a 420 MPa peak microhardness at 425-450 degrees C. A pronounced synergistic effect is observed when both Sc and Zr are present. Above 325 degrees C, Zr additions provide a secondary strength increase from the precipitation of Zr-enriched outer shells onto the Al(3)Sc precipitates, leading to a peak microhardness of 780 MPa at 400 degrees C for Al-0.1Sc-0.1Zr. Compositions, radii, volume fractions and number densities of the Al(3)(Sc(1-x)Zr(x)) precipitates are measured directly using atom-probe tomography. This information is used to quantify the observed strengthening increments, attributed to dislocation shearing of the Al(3)(Sc(1-x)Zr(x)) precipitates.

AB While considerable efforts have been made to model the effects of grain coarsening, there has been little experimental verification of these models. Using serial sectioning techniques, the full 3-D morphology of 2098 beta-titanium grains in Ti-21S are analyzed and directly compared to grain coarsening theories. The experimental grain size distribution and the distribution in the number of grain faces are shown to have a close comparison to the predictions of the steady-state size distribution from a number of simulations and analytical theories. The geometric factor of the growth rates is determined by measuring the mean curvature of the grain faces. It is found that, on average, the grains with an average of 15.5 faces have a zero integral mean curvature of the grain faces, higher than the predicted value of 13.4 faces. This difference is suggested to be due to the non-random nearest-neighbor effects within the grain network. Published by Elsevier Ltd. on behalf of Acta Materialia Inc.

AB The objective of this study was to identify factors associated with antisocial behavior in 1,543 Marines who deployed to combat zones in support of conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan during 2002-2007. Five factors were associated with antisocial behavior in multivariate analyses: post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, deployment-related stressors, combat exposure, younger age, and being divorced. PTSD symptoms had a stronger association with antisocial behavior than any other variable. A unique and important finding of this study was the association between deployment-related stressors and a higher incidence of antisocial behavior. Because deployment-related stressors are potentially modifiable, the military may be able to address them in concrete ways such as by shortening deployments and improving communication with home.

Neither the median numbers of recommendations per PB (8 to 10; p = 0.235) nor the type (p = 0.155) increased significantly. Additionally, the level of references (p = 0.130) and the type of journals they were published in did not vary significantly (p = 0.554).

AB Background: Shoe manufacturers market motion control, stability, and cushioned shoes for plantar shapes defined as low, normal, and high, respectively. This assignment procedure is presumed to reduce injuries by compensating for differences in running mechanics.
Hypothesis: Assigning running shoes based on plantar shape will not reduce injury risk in Marine Corps basic training.
Study Design: Randomized controlled clinical trial; Level of evidence, 1.
Methods: After foot examinations, Marine Corps recruits in an experimental group (E: 408 men, 314 women) were provided motion control, stability, or cushioned shoes for plantar shapes indicative of low, medium, or high arches, respectively. A control group (C: 432 men, 257 women) received a stability shoe regardless of plantar shape. Injuries during the 12 weeks of training were determined from outpatient visits obtained from the Defense Medical Surveillance System. Other known injury risk factors (eg, fitness, smoking, prior physical activity) were obtained from a questionnaire, existing databases, or the training units.
Results: Cox regression indicated little difference in injury risk between the E and C groups among men (hazard ratio [E/C] = 1.01; 95% confidence interval, 0.82-1.24) or women (hazard ratio [E/C] = 0.88; 95% confidence interval, 0.70-1.10).
Conclusion: This prospective study demonstrated that assigning shoes based on the shape of the plantar foot surface had little influence on injuries even after considering other injury risk factors.

AB Guaroa virus (GROV) was first isolated from humans in Colombia in 1959. Subsequent isolates of the virus have been recovered from febrile patients and mosquitoes in Brazil. Colombia. and Panama, however, association of the virus with human disease has been unclear As part of a study on the etiology of febrile illnesses in Peru and Bolivia, 14 GROV strains were isolated from patients with febrile illnesses, and 3 additional cases were confirmed by IgM serocon-version The prevalence rate of GROV antibodies among Iquitos residents was 13%. the highest rates were among persons with occupations such as woodcutters, fisherman, and oil-field workers Genetic characterization of representative GROV isolates indicated that strains from Peru and Bolivia form a monophyletic group that can be distinguished from strains isolated earlier in Brazil and Colombia. This study confirms GROV as a cause of febrile illness in tropical regions of Central and South America

AB Single-domain antibodies (sdAb) specific for botulinum neurotoxin serotype A (BoNT A) were selected from an immune llama phage display library derived from a llama that was immunized with BoNT A toxoid. The constructed phage library was panned using two methods: panning on plates coated with BoNT A toxoid (BoNT ATd) and BoNT A complex toxoid (BoNT Ac Td) and panning on microspheres coupled to BoNT A Td and BoNT A toxin (BoNT A Tx). Both panning methods selected for binders that had identical sequences, suggesting that panning on toxoided material may be as effective as panning on bead-immobilized toxin for isolating specific binders. All of the isolated binders tested were observed to recognize bead-immobilized BoNT A Tx in direct binding assays, and showed very little cross-reactivity towards other BoNT serotypes and unrelated protein. Sandwich assays that incorporated selected sdAb as capture and tracer elements demonstrated that all of the sdAb were able to recognize soluble ("live") BoNT A Tx and BoNT Ac Tx with virtually no cross-reactivity with other BoNT serotypes. The isolated sdAb did not exhibit the high degree of thermal stability often associated with these reagents; after the first heating cycle most of the binding activity was lost, but the portion of the protein that did refold and recover antigen-binding activity showed only minimal loss on subsequent heating and cooling cycles. The binding kinetics of selected binders, assessed by both an equilibrium fluid array assay as well as surface plasmon resonance (SPR) using toxoided material, gave dissociation constants (K(D)) in the range 2.2 x 10(-11) to 1.6 x 10(-10) M. These high-affinity binders may prove beneficial to the development of recombinant reagents for the rapid detection of BoNT A, particularly in field screening and monitoring applications.

TI Binding Kinetics of Antiricin Single Domain Antibodies and Improved
Detection Using a B Chain Specific Binder
SO ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
LA English
DT Article
ID RICIN; LIBRARY; PLANTS; TOXINS; ABRIN
AB Single domain antibodies are the recombinantly expressed binding fragments derived from heavy chain antibodies found in camels and llamas. These unique binding elements offer many desirable properties such as their small size (similar to 15 kDa) and thermal stability, which makes them attractive alternatives to conventional monoclonal antibodies. We created a phage display library from llamas immunized with ricin toxoid and selected a number of single domain antibodies. Phage selected on ricin were found to bind to either ricin A chain or the intact molecule; no ricin B chain binders were identified. By panning on B chain, we identified binders and have characterized their binding to the ricin B chain. While they have a poorer affinity than the previously described A chain binders, it was found that they performed dramatically better as capture reagents for the detection of ricin, providing a limit of detection in enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) below 100 pg/mL and excellent specificity for ricin versus the highly related RCA 120 (1 to 10 000). We also reevaluated the previously isolated antiricin single domain antibody binding kinetics using surface plasmon resonance and found their K(d)s matched closely to those previously obtained under equilibrium binding conditions measured using the Luminex flow cytometer.

AB The young open cluster Collinder 419 surrounds the massive O star, HD 193322, that is itself a remarkable multiple star system containing at least four components. Here we present a discussion of the cluster distance based upon new spectral classifications of the brighter members, UBV photometry, and an analysis of astrometric and photometric data from the third U. S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog and Two Micron All Sky Survey Catalog. We determine an average cluster reddening of E(B - V) = 0.37+/-0.05 mag and a cluster distance of 741+/-36 pc. The cluster probably contains some very young stars that may include a reddened M3 III star, IRAS 20161+4035.

AB This paper presents 442 new proper motion stellar systems in the southern sky between declinations -90 degrees and -47 degrees with 0.'' 40 yr(-1) > mu >= 0.'' 18 yr(-1). These systems constitute a 25.3% increase in new systems for the same region of the sky covered by previous SuperCOSMOS RECONS (SCR) searches that used Schmidt plates as the primary source of discovery. Among the new systems are 25 multiples, plus an additional 7 new common proper motion (CPM) companions to previously known primaries. All stars have been discovered using the third U. S. Naval Observatory (USNO) CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC3). A comparison of the UCAC3 proper motions to those from the Hipparcos, Tycho-2, Southern Proper Motion (SPM4), and SuperCOSMOS efforts is presented and shows that UCAC3 provides similar values and precision to the first three surveys. The comparison between UCAC3 and SuperCOSMOS indicates that proper motions in R. A. are systematically shifted in the SuperCOSMOS data but are consistent in decl. data, while overall showing a significantly higher scatter. Distance estimates are derived for stars having SuperCOSMOS Sky Survey BJ, R59F, and IIVN plate magnitudes and Two-Micron All Sky Survey infrared photometry. We find 15 systems estimated to be within 25 pc, including UPM 1710-5300 our closest new discovery estimated at 13.5 pc. Such new discoveries suggest that more nearby stars are yet to be found in these slower proper motion regimes, indicating that more work is needed to develop a complete map of the solar neighborhood.

AB Context. Extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) and X-ray photons from classical T Tauri stars are powerful ionization and heating agents that drive disk chemistry, disk instabilities, and photoevaporative flows. The mid-infrared fine-structure line of [Ne II] at 12.81 mu m has been proposed to trace gas in disk surface layers heated and ionized by stellar X-ray and EUV radiation.
Aims. We aim at locating the origin of [Ne II] line emission in circumstellar environments by studying distributions of [Ne II] emission and correlating the inferred [Ne II] luminosities, L([Ne II]), with stellar and circumstellar disk parameters.
Methods. We have conducted a study of [Ne II] line emission based on a sample of 92 pre-main sequence stars mostly belonging to the infrared Class II, but including 13 accreting transition disk objects, and also 14 objects that drive known jets and outflows.
Results. We find several significant correlations between L([Ne II]) and stellar parameters, in particular L(X) and the wind mass loss rate,. (M) over dot(loss). Most correlations are, however, strongly dominated by systematic scatter of unknown origin. While there is a positive correlation between L([Ne II]) and L(X), the stellar mass accretion rate,. (M) over dot(acc), induces a correlation only if we combine the largely different subsets of jet sources and stars without jets. Our results indeed suggest that L([Ne II]) is bi-modally distributed, with separate distributions for the two subsamples. The jet sources show systematically higher L([Ne II]), by 1-2 orders of magnitude with respect to objects without jets. Jet-driving stars also tend to show higher mass accretion rates. We therefore hypothesize that the trend with. (M) over dot(acc) only reflects a trend with (M) over dot(loss) that is more physically relevant for [Ne II] emission.
Conclusions. The [Ne II] luminosities measured for objects without known outflows and jets are found to agree with simplified calculations of [Ne II] emission from disk surface layers if the measured stellar X-rays are responsible for heating and ionizing the gas. The large scatter in L([Ne II]) may be introduced by variations of disk properties and the irradiation spectrum, as previously suggested. If these additional factors can be sufficiently well constrained, then the [Ne II] 12.81 mu m line should be an important diagnostic for disk surface ionization and heating, at least in the inner disk region. This applies in particular to transition disks also included in our sample. The systematically enhanced [Ne II] flux from jet sources clearly suggests a role for the jets themselves, as previously demonstrated by a spatially resolved observation of the outflow system in the T Tau triple.

AB Context. A number of theoretical models vie to explain the gamma-ray emission from active galactic nuclei (AGN). This was a key discovery of EGRET. With its broader energy coverage, higher resolution, wider field of view and greater sensitivity, the Large Area Telescope (LAT) of the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope is dramatically increasing our knowledge of AGN gamma-ray emission. However, discriminating between competing theoretical models requires quasi-simultaneous observations across the electromagnetic spectrum. By resolving the powerful parsec-scale relativistic outflows in extragalactic jets and thereby allowing us to measure critical physical properties, Very Long Baseline Interferometry observations are crucial to understanding the physics of extragalactic gamma-ray objects.
Aims. We introduce the TANAMI program (Tracking Active Galactic Nuclei with Austral Milliarcsecond Interferometry) which is monitoring an initial sample of 43 extragalactic jets located south of -30 degrees declination at 8.4GHz and 22GHz since 2007. All aspects of the program are discussed. First epoch results at 8.4GHz are presented along with physical parameters derived therefrom.
Methods. These observations were made during 2007/2008 using the telescopes of the Australian Long Baseline Array in conjunction with Hartebeesthoek in South Africa. These data were correlated at the Swinburne University correlator.
Results. We present first epoch images for 43 sources, some observed for the first time at milliarcsecond resolution. Parameters of these images as well as physical parameters derived from them are also presented and discussed. These and subsequent images from the TANAMI survey are available at http://pulsar.sternwarte.uni-erlangen.de/tanami/.
Conclusions. We obtain reliable, high dynamic range images of the southern hemisphere AGN. All the quasars and BL Lac objects in the sample have a single-sided radio morphology. Galaxies are either double-sided, single-sided or irregular. About 28% of the TANAMI sample has been detected by LAT during its first three months of operations. Initial analysis suggests that when galaxies are excluded, sources detected by LAT have larger opening angles than those not detected by LAT. Brightness temperatures of LAT detections and non-detections seem to have similar distributions. The redshift distributions of the TANAMI sample and sub-samples are similar to those seen for the bright gamma-ray AGN seen by LAT and EGRET but none of the sources with a redshift above 1.8 have been detected by LAT.

AB We examine the nonlinear magnetofrictional extrapolation scheme using the solar active region model by Titov and Demoulin as test field. This model consists of an arched, line-tied current channel held in force-free equilibrium by the potential field of a bipolar flux distribution in the bottom boundary. A modified version with a parabolic current density profile is employed here. We find that the equilibrium is reconstructed with very high accuracy in a representative range of parameter space, using only the vector field in the bottom boundary as input. Structural features formed in the interface between the flux rope and the surrounding arcade - "hyperbolic flux tube" and "bald patch separatrix surface" - are reliably reproduced, as are the flux rope twist and the energy and helicity of the configuration. This demonstrates that force-free fields containing these basic structural elements of solar active regions can be obtained by extrapolation. The influence of the chosen initial condition on the accuracy of reconstruction is also addressed, confirming that the initial field that best matches the external potential field of the model quite naturally leads to the best reconstruction. Extrapolating the magnetogram of a Titov-Demoulin equilibrium in the unstable range of parameter space yields a sequence of two opposing evolutionary phases, which clearly indicate the unstable nature of the configuration: a partial buildup of the flux rope with rising free energy is followed by destruction of the rope, losing most of the free energy.

AB The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) data have confirmed the pulsed emission from all six high-confidence gamma-ray pulsars previously known from the EGRET observations. We report results obtained from the analysis of 13 months of LAT data for three of these pulsars (PSR J1057-5226, PSR J1709-4429, and PSR 11952+3252) each of which had some unique feature among the EGRET pulsars. The excellent sensitivity of LAT allows more detailed analysis of the evolution of the pulse profile with energy and also of the variation of the spectral shape with phase. We measure the cutoff energy of the pulsed emission from these pulsars for the first time and provide a more complete picture of the emission mechanism. The results confirm some, but not all, of the features seen in the EGRET data.

AB IC 2118, also known as the Witch Head Nebula, is a wispy, roughly cometary, similar to 5 degree long reflection nebula, and is thought to be a site of triggered star formation. In order to search for new young stellar objects (YSOs), we have observed this region in seven mid- and far-infrared bands using the Spitzer Space Telescope and in four bands in the optical using the U. S. Naval Observatory 40 inch telescope. We find infrared excesses in four of the six previously known T Tauri stars in our combined infrared maps, and we find six entirely new candidate YSOs, one of which may be an edge-on disk. Most of the YSOs seen in the infrared are Class II objects, and they are all in the "head" of the nebula, within the most massive molecular cloud of the region.

AB We report on the Fermi-LAT observations of the Geminga pulsar, the second brightest non-variable GeV source in the gamma-ray sky and the first example of a radio-quiet gamma-ray pulsar. The observations cover one year, from the launch of the Fermi satellite through 2009 June 15. A data sample of over 60,000 photons enabled us to build a timing solution based solely on gamma-rays. Timing analysis shows two prominent peaks, separated by Delta phi = 0.497 +/- 0.004 in phase, which narrow with increasing energy. Pulsed gamma-rays are observed beyond 18 GeV, precluding emission below 2.7 stellar radii because of magnetic absorption. The phase-averaged spectrum was fitted with a power law with exponential cutoff of spectral index Gamma = (1.30 +/- 0.01 +/- 0.04), cutoff energy E-0 = (2.46 +/- 0.04 +/- 0.17) GeV, and an integral photon flux above 0.1 GeV of (4.14 +/- 0.02 +/- 0.32) x 10(-6) cm(-2) s(-1). The first uncertainties are statistical and the second ones are systematic. The phase-resolved spectroscopy shows a clear evolution of the spectral parameters, with the spectral index reaching a minimum value just before the leading peak and the cutoff energy having maxima around the peaks. The phase-resolved spectroscopy reveals that pulsar emission is present at all rotational phases. The spectral shape, broad pulse profile, and maximum photon energy favor the outer magnetospheric emission scenarios.

AB This is the first of a series of papers aimed at characterizing the populations detected in the high-latitude sky of the Fermi-LAT survey. In this work, we focus on the intrinsic spectral and flux properties of the source sample. We show that when selection effects are properly taken into account, Fermi sources are on average steeper than previously found (e.g., in the bright source list) with an average photon index of 2.40 +/- 0.02 over the entire 0.1-100 GeV energy band. We confirm that flat spectrum radio quasars have steeper spectra than BL Lacertae objects with an average index of 2.48 +/- 0.02 versus 2.18 +/- 0.02. Using several methods, we build the deepest source count distribution at GeV energies, deriving that the intrinsic source (i.e., blazar) surface density at F-100 >= 10(-9) ph cm(2) s(-1) is 0.12(-0.02)(+0.03) deg(-2). The integration of the source count distribution yields that point sources contribute 16(+/- 1.8)% (+/- 7% systematic uncertainty) of the GeV isotropic diffuse background. At the fluxes currently reached by LAT, we can rule out the hypothesis that pointlike sources (i.e., blazars) produce a larger fraction of the diffuse emission.

AB We present a Spitzer InfraRed Spectrometer search for 10-36 mu m molecular emission from a large sample of protoplanetary disks, including lines from H(2)O, OH, C(2)H(2), HCN, and CO(2). This paper describes the sample and data processing and derives the detection rate of mid-infrared molecular emission as a function of stellar mass. The sample covers a range of spectral type from early M to A, and is supplemented by archival spectra of disks around A and B stars. It is drawn from a variety of nearby star-forming regions, including Ophiuchus, Lupus, and Chamaeleon. Spectra showing strong emission lines are used to identify which lines are the best tracers of various physical and chemical conditions within the disks. In total, we identify 22 T Tauri stars with strong mid-infrared H(2)O emission. Integrated water line luminosities, where water vapor is detected, range from 5 x 10(-4) to 9 x 10(-3) L(circle dot), likely making water the dominant line coolant of inner disk surfaces in classical T Tauri stars. None of the five transitional disks in the sample show detectable gaseous molecular emission with Spitzer upper limits at the 1% level in terms of line-to-continuum ratios (apart from H(2)), but the sample is too small to conclude whether this is a general property of transitional disks. We find a strong dependence on detection rate with spectral type; no disks around our sample of 25 A and B stars were found to exhibit water emission, down to 1%-2% line-to-continuum ratios, in the mid-infrared, while more than half of disks around late-type stars (M-G) show sufficiently intense water emission to be detected by Spitzer, with a detection rate approaching 2/3 for disks around K stars. Some Herbig Ae/Be stars show tentative H(2)O/OH emission features beyond 20 mu m at the 1%-2% level, however, and one of them shows CO(2) in emission. We argue that the observed differences between T Tauri disks and Herbig Ac/Be disks are due to a difference in excitation and/or chemistry depending on spectral type and suggest that photochemistry may be playing an important role in the observable characteristics of mid-infrared molecular line emission from protoplanetary disks.

AB Analysis is presented for 15 months of data taken with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope for 11 non-blazar active galactic nuclei (AGNs), including seven FRI radio galaxies and four FRII radio sources consisting of two FRII radio galaxies and two steep spectrum radio quasars. The broad line FRI radio galaxy 3C 120 is reported here as a gamma-ray source for the first time. The analysis is based on directional associations of LAT sources with radio sources in the 3CR, 3CRR, and MS4 (collectively referred to as 3C-MS) catalogs. Seven of the eleven LAT sources associated with 3C-MS radio sources have spectral indices larger than 2.3 and, except for the FRI radio galaxy NGC 1275 that shows possible spectral curvature, are well described by a power law. No evidence for time variability is found for any sources other than NGC 1275. The gamma-ray luminosities of FRI radio galaxies are significantly smaller than those of the BL Lac objects detected by the LAT, whereas the gamma-ray luminosities of the FRII sources are quite similar to those of FSRQs, which could reflect different beaming factors for the gamma-ray emission. A core dominance (CD) study of the 3CRR sample indicates that sources closer to the jet axis are preferentially detected with the Fermi LAT, insofar as the gamma-ray-detected misaligned AGNs have larger CD at a given average radio flux. The results are discussed in view of the AGN unification scenario.

TI GALEX AND PAN-STARRS1 DISCOVERY OF SN IIP 2010aq: THE FIRST FEW DAYS

AB We present the early UV and optical light curve of Type IIP supernova (SN) 2010aq at z = 0.0862, and compare it to analytical models for thermal emission following SN shock breakout in a red supergiant star. SN 2010aq was discovered in joint monitoring between the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Time Domain Survey (TDS) in the NUV and the Pan-STARRS1 Medium Deep Survey (PS1 MDS) in the g, r, i, and z bands. The GALEX and Pan-STARRS1 observations detect the SN less than 1 day after the shock breakout, measure a diluted blackbody temperature of 31,000 +/- 6000 K 1 day later, and follow the rise in the UV/optical light curve over the next 2 days caused by the expansion and cooling of the SN ejecta. The high signal-to-noise ratio of the simultaneous UV and optical photometry allows us to fit for a progenitor star radius of 700 +/- 200R(circle dot), the size of a red supergiant star. An excess in UV emission two weeks after shock breakout compared with SNe well fitted by model atmosphere-code synthetic spectra with solar metallicity is best explained by suppressed line blanketing due to a lower metallicity progenitor star in SN 2010aq. Continued monitoring of PS1 MDS fields by the GALEX TDS will increase the sample of early UV detections of Type II SNe by an order of magnitude and probe the diversity of SN progenitor star properties.

TI THE TEMPERATURE-DEPENDENT NATURE OF CORONAL DIMMINGS

AB The opening-up of the magnetic field during solar eruptive events is often accompanied by a dimming of the local coronal emission. From observations of filament eruptions recorded with the Extreme-Ultraviolet Imager on STEREO during 2008-2009, it is evident that these dimmings are much more pronounced in 19.5 nm than in the lower-temperature line 17.1 nm, as viewed either on the disk or above the limb. We conclude that most of the cooler coronal plasma is not ejected but remains gravitationally bound when the loops open up. This result is consistent with Doppler measurements by Imada and coworkers, who found that the upflow speeds in a transient coronal hole increased dramatically above a temperature of 1 MK; it is also consistent with the quasistatic behavior of polar plumes, as compared with the hotter interplume regions that are the main source of the fast solar wind. When the open flux reconnects and closes down again, the trapped plasma is initially heated to such high temperatures that it is no longer visible at Fe IX 17.1 nm. Correspondingly, 17.1 nm images show a dark ribbon or "heat wave" propagating away from the polarity inversion line and coinciding with the brightened Fe XV 28.4 nm and Fe XII 19.5 nm post-eruptive loops and their footpoint areas. Such dark ribbons provide a clear example of dimmings that are not caused by a density depletion. The propagation of the "heat wave" is driven by the closing-down, not the opening-up, of the flux and can be observed both off-limb and on-disk.

AB We present the results of a comprehensive assessment of companions to solar-type stars. A sample of 454 stars, including the Sun, was selected from the Hipparcos catalog with pi > 40 mas, sigma(pi)/pi < 0.05, 0.5 <= B - V <= 1.0 (similar to F6-K3), and constrained by absolute magnitude and color to exclude evolved stars. These criteria are equivalent to selecting all dwarf and subdwarf stars within 25 pc with V-band flux between 0.1 and 10 times that of the Sun, giving us a physical basis for the term "solar-type." New observational aspects of this work include surveys for (1) very close companions with long-baseline interferometry at the Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy Array, (2) close companions with speckle interferometry, and (3) wide proper-motion companions identified by blinking multi-epoch archival images. In addition, we include the results from extensive radial-velocity monitoring programs and evaluate companion information from various catalogs covering many different techniques. The results presented here include four new common proper-motion companions discovered by blinking archival images. Additionally, the spectroscopic data searched reveal five new stellar companions. Our synthesis of results from many methods and sources results in a thorough evaluation of stellar and brown dwarf companions to nearby Sun-like stars. The overall observed fractions of single, double, triple, and higher-order systems are 56% +/- 2%, 33% +/- 2%, 8% +/- 1%, and 3% +/- 1%, respectively, counting all confirmed stellar and brown dwarf companions. If all candidate, i.e., unconfirmed, companions identified are found to be real, the percentages would change to 54% +/- 2%, 34% +/- 2%, 9% +/- 2%, and 3% +/- 1%, respectively. Our completeness analysis indicates that only a few undiscovered companions remain in this well-studied sample, implying that the majority (54% +/- 2%) of solar-type stars are single, in contrast to the results of prior multiplicity studies. Our sample is large enough to enable a check of the multiplicity dependence on various physical parameters by analyzing appropriate subsamples. Bluer, more massive stars are seen as more likely to have companions than redder, less massive ones, consistent with the trend seen over the entire spectral range. Systems with larger interaction cross sections, i.e., those with more than two components or long orbital periods, are preferentially younger, suggesting that companions may be stripped over time by dynamical interactions. We confirm the planet-metallicity correlation (i.e., higher metallicity stars are more likely to host planets), but are unable to check it for brown dwarfs due to the paucity of such companions, implying that the brown dwarf desert extends over all separation regimes. We find no correlation between stellar companions and metallicity for B - V < 0.625, but among the redder subset, metal-poor stars ([Fe/H] < -0.3) are more likely to have companions with a 2.4 sigma significance. The orbital-period distribution of companions is unimodal and roughly log normal with a peak and median of about 300 years. The period-eccentricity relation shows the expected circularization for periods below 12 days, caused by tidal forces over the age of the Galaxy, followed by a roughly flat distribution. The mass-ratio distribution shows a preference for like-mass pairs, which occur more frequently in relatively close pairs.
The fraction of planet hosts among single, binary, and multiple systems are statistically inditinguishable, suggesting that planets are as likely to form around single stars as they are around components of binary or multiple systems with sufficiently wide separations. This, along with the preference of long orbital periods among stellar systems, increases the space around stars conducive for planet formation, and perhaps life.

AB This study investigates the use of atmospheric pressure (AP)CVD-produced aluminum (Al) coatings for the protection of steel from corrosion. Coatings produced through thermal decomposition of a triisobutylaluminum (TIBAL)-based precursor at 548 and 573 K are shown to exhibit growth rates of 0.5 and 1.1 mu m min(-1), respectively. Glow discharge optical emission spectroscopy (GDOES) reveals that, in the main, the coatings consist of pure Al with oxygen present as a minor constituent. Results of the structural, morphological, electrical, and mechanical characterization reveal that the APCVD Al coatings exhibit a face center cubic (fcc) structure with no preferred orientation, a non-columnar grain structure with grain size ranging from 3 to 10 mu m, and a surface roughness close to 2 mu m. Such coatings are also shown to offer an electrical resistivity of 3.5 mu Omega.cm, a density of 2.60 g cm(-3), and an adhesive strength of 703 kg cm(-2). Cross-sectional examination of coated samples indicate that the APCVD process can yield excellent step coverage and throwing power. Hydrogen embrittlement (HE) tests reveal that Al-coated bars with no post baking experience premature failure due to the presence of incorporated reaction product, hydrogen, in the steel substrate. Samples post-baked at 463 K for 23 h to remove the hydrogen from the substrate are shown to withstand the load for as long as 202 h. Corrosion studies conducted using potentiodynamic polarization measurements, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and salt fog tests show that the corrosion resistance of the APCVD Al coatings is comparable to that of pure Al foils, and that such coatings provide acceptable sacrificial protection for steel substrates.

Two test series have been performed and simulated: (1) a reduced energy series which allowed for the use of strain gages and (2) a series with increased energy which imparted material damage. The strain gage data and the computational results show a high level of correlation using the Russell error measure. The finite element models are also shown to be able to simulate the onset of material damage by both in-plane and delamination mechanisms. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Wurtzite indium nitride nano- and microscale crystals were grown on c-plane sapphire substrates in an oxide-, template-, and catalyst-free chemical vapor deposition reactor using the halogen-based precursor InCl(3). The impact of growth temperature, In flux, and ammonia flow on the InN microstructure and epitaxial alignment was evaluated. Increased growth temperature resulted in nanorods with high-aspect ratio and enhanced epitaxial alignment of InN(001)//Al(2)O(3)(001). Faceting exhibited by our growth product confirmed that simple bond-counting does not determine the exhibited planes and phenomena such as dipole-dipole attractions and surface diffusion determined crystal morphology under certain conditions. An increase in growth product with increased In flux indicated our growths are carried out under heavily N-rich conditions with V/III similar to 10(4). These results provide a stronger understanding of the growth mechanisms of this unique semiconductor.

AB SO2 poisoning of carbon-supported Pt3Co (Pt3Co/VC) catalyst is performed at the cathode of proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) in order to link previously reported results at the electrode/solution interface to the FC environment.
First, the surface area of Pt3Co/VC catalyst is rigorously characterized by hydrogen adsorption, CO stripping voltammetry and underpotential deposition (upd) of copper adatoms. Then the performance of PEMFC cathodes employing 30 wt.% Pt3Co/VC and 50 wt.% Pt/VC catalysts is compared after exposure to 1 ppm SO2 in air for 3 h at constant cell voltage of 0.6V. In agreement with results reported for the electrode/solution interface, the Pt3Co/VC is more susceptive to SO2 poisoning than Pt/VC at a given platinum loading.
Both catalysts can be recovered from adsorbed sulfur species by running successive polarization curves in air or cyclic voltammetry (CV) in inert atmosphere. However, the activity of Pt3Co/VC having similar to 3 times higher sulfur coverage is recovered more easily than Pt/VC. To understand the difference between the two catalysts in terms of activity recovery, platinum-sulfur interaction is probed by thermal programmed desorption at the catalyst/inert gas interface and CV at the electrode/solution interface and in the FC environment.

AB Emerging evidence suggests that nitric oxide (NO) plays a pivotal role in the mechanism of vascular hyporesponsiveness contributing to microgravity-induced orthostatic intolerance. The cellular and enzymatic source of the NO, however, remains controversial. In addition, the time course of the endothelial-dependent contribution remains unstudied. We tested the hypotheses that the change in vasoresponsiveness seen in acute (3-day) hindlimb unweighted (HLU) animals is due to an endothelium-dependent mechanism and that endothelial-dependent attenuation in vasoreactivity is due to endothelial nitric oxide synthase (NOS-3) dependent activation. Vasoreactivity was investigated in rat aortic rings following acute HLU treatment. Dose responsiveness to norepinepherine (NE) was depressed after 3-day HLU [1,338 +/- A 54 vs. 2,325 +/- A 58 mg at max (NE), HLU vs. C, P < 0.001]. However, removal of the endothelium restored the vascular contractility to that of C. In addition, 1H-oxadiazole quinoxalin-1-one (ODQ), a soluble guanylyl cyclase inhibitor, restored the reduced vasoconstrictor responses to phenylephrine (PE) seen in 3-day HLU rings (1.30 +/- A 0.10 vs. 0.53 +/- A 0.07 g, HLU + ODQ vs. HLU, P = 0.0001). Ca(+) dependent nitric oxide synthase (NOS) activity was increased, as was vascular NO products as a result of HLU. While NOS-3 expression was not increased in HLU rats, phosphorylation of NOS-3 at serine-1177 (an activator of NOS-3) was increased while phosphorylation of serine-495 (an inactivator of NOS-3) was decreased. These findings demonstrate that changes in vasoresponsiveness in the acute HLU model of microgravity are due to an upregulation of the endothelial-dependent NO/cGMP pathway through NOS phosphorylation.

AB The co-generation of acetylene and hydrogen from the hydrolysis of calcium carbide and calcium hydride was investigated as part of a unique carbide-based fuel system intended for high-temperature fuel cells. To gain better control of this highly energetic reaction, glycerin was used to coat the reactant particles to form slurry prior to their reaction with water. This process was shown to moderate the rate of gas production, as well as to provide a means for preparing slurry that could be pumped into the reactor vessel. It was also observed that the presence of calcium hydroxide, a by-product of hydrolysis, lowered the solubility of acetylene resulting in a higher initial flow rate due to less acetylene being dissolved in solution. However, the buildup of calcium hydroxide with time inhibited the hydrolysis of both calcium carbide and calcium hydride causing the acetylene and hydrogen flow rates to decrease.

AB Mediterranean ecosystems are among the highest in species richness and endemism globally and are also among the most sensitive to climate and land-use change. Fire is an important driver of ecosystem processes in these systems; however, fire regimes have been substantially changed by human activities. Climate change is predicted to further alter fire regimes and species distributions, leading to habitat loss and threatening biodiversity. It is currently unknown what the population-level effects of these landscape-level changes will be. We linked a spatially explicit stochastic population model to dynamic bioclimate envelopes to investigate the effects of climate change, habitat loss and fragm entation and altered fire regime on population abundances of a long-lived obligate seeding shrub, Ceanothus verrucosus, a rare endemic species of southern California. We tested a range of fire return intervals under the present and two future climate scenarios. We also assessed the impact of potential anthropogenic land-use change by excluding land identified as developable by local governments. We found that the 35-50 year fire return interval resulted in the highest population abundances. Expected minimum population abundance (EMA) declined gradually as fire return interval increased, but declined dramatically for shorter fire intervals. Simulated future development resulted in a 33% decline in EMA, but relatively stable population trajectories over the time frame modeled. Relative changes in EMA for alternative fire intervals were similar for all climate and habitat loss scenarios, except under the more severe climate scenario which resulted in a change in the relative ranking of the fire scenarios. Our results show climate change to be the most serious threat facing obligate seeding shrubs embedded in urban landscapes, resulting in population decline and increased local extirpation, and that likely interactions with other threats increase risks to these species. Taking account of parameter uncertainty did not alter our conclusions.

AB Variations in diuretic-mediated inhibition of carbonic anhydrase-dependent chloride transport in platelets and vascular smooth muscle could account for the contrasting efficacy of the thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics in reducing cardiovascular morbidity in patients with hypertension. We assessed platelet carbonic anhydrase activity and catecholamine-induced platelet aggregation in the presence of a thiazide and a "thiazide-like" inhibitor of the sodium-chloride cotransporter. Individual variation in platelet carbonic anhydrase activity correlated with contrasting sensitivity to epinephrine-mediated platelet aggregation. Both chlorthalidone, which potently inhibits platelet carbonic anhydrase, and bendroflumethiazide, which has much less effect on this enzyme, increased the amount of epinephrine needed to induce platelet aggregation when compared with the absence of a diuretic. However, chlorthalidone was significantly more effective than bendroflumethiazide in reducing epinephrine-mediated platelet aggregation. Chlorthalidone also induced marked changes in the number of gene transcripts for two proteins that mediate angiogenesis and vascular permeability, vascular endothelial growth factor C and transforming growth factor-beta 3; chlorthalidone and bendroflumethiazide had contrasting effects on the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor C. Chlorthalidone and bendroflumethiazide reduced vascular permeability to albumin, but only chlorthalidone increased angiogenesis. Thiazides and thiazide-like diuretics can comparably reduce blood pressure, but the drugs in this class are not all alike. It can be suggested from our findings that thiazide and thiazide-like diuretics vary in their pleiotropic effects on platelets and in the vasculature, and these differences could explain the contrasting ability of these drugs to reduce cardiovascular morbidity despite comparable reduction in blood pressure.

ID PERFORMANCE
AB In free-space single-photon quantum key distribution (QKD), the error rate due to daytime background photons can be reduced with strong temporal filtering. In this case, the improvement in performance is determined by the receiver's ability to resolve signal-photon arrival times. We use fast clock recovery and commercially available single-photon detectors with timing resolution enhanced by additional electronic circuitry to implement temporal gating down to 50 ps in a free-space QKD system. The single-photon channel operates at 850 nm, and the improved timing resolution enables transmission rates of 1.25 GHz. We observe daytime quantum bit error rates of 0.04, which is less than one-third of the ungated error rate. We present the design and performance of the system and demonstrate its benefit to free-space QKD.

AB Wavelength-scaled array architectures use scaled elements to achieve ultrawideband performance with significantly fewer overall radiators than traditional ultrawideband arrays based on a single element type. Compared to a conventional ultrawideband array with 8:1 bandwidth, a wavelength-scaled array that uses elements of three different sizes creates an aperture with fewer than 16% of the original element count, i.e., 6.4-times fewer elements, and by extension a comparable reduction in electronics required to feed the array. In this paper, a study of an asymmetric wavelength-scaled array architecture is presented for finite arrays of offset-centered dual-polarized flared-notch radiators. The unique element transitions within the finite array structure are modeled via a non-matching grid Domain Decomposition-Finite Element Method that allows for rigorous impedance and radiation pattern prediction of full-sized wavelength-scaled arrays. This design study shows that the wavelength-scaled array has comparable performance to traditional ultrawideband arrays in terms of VSWR, radiation patterns, array mismatch efficiency, and cross-polarization levels.

AB A new method for synthesizing broadband antireflective (AR) surfaces at microwave and millimeter wave frequencies is demonstrated. The AR surface, we call an inverse motheye, was formed by machining a multi-layer grating of subwavelength circular holes into a non-absorptive dielectric. This created low reflected energies (< -30 dB) over reasonably large bandwidths and incidence angles. An optimization algorithm, based on a direct pattern search, integrated with a rigorous electromagnetic model was used to design the grating geometries. Experimental results are provided at Ka-band demonstrating the validity of the method.

AB Electric power distribution systems composed of power electronics converters are susceptible to instabilities under certain conditions. Small-signal impedance approaches to stability analysis are incapable of predicting large-signal stability properties. Herein, a practical and scalable genetic algorithm based procedure for the estimation of regions of asymptotic stability of power electronics systems is proposed. The procedure is demonstrated on six nonlinear models that range from 6 to 75 state variables. The models represent the dynamics of Naval power electronics-based system components and systems.

AB Systems for ships, offshore platforms, chemical plants, foundries, and utilities are rapidly changing as a result of the second electronic revolution. The first revolution was with integrated circuits which gave us the microprocessor, PCs, cell phones, and MP3 players. The second electronic revolution started with power electronics, which give us motor controllers, switching power supplies, hybrid cars, and electric ships. Just as the first electronic revolution changed our concepts of information, the second electronic revolution is redefining control. This paper discusses these changes and the opportunities enabled by new technologies and levels of control. Most notably, this paper provides a logical argument for future controller abilities to control any system to near perfection-accurately, precisely, reliably, and safely. This paper also proposes the use of building block concepts with modeling and simulation to create new tools and methods for designing and building power systems.

The reliability analysis shows the increased lifetime of the VSI using a standby redundant controller. The VSI control system is designed to switch from the primary to the secondary controller when a fault to the primary controller occurs. Simulated and experimental results validate that the redundant controller design switches between field-programmable gate-array-based redundant controllers with no measurable disturbance to the output voltage.

AB We demonstrate that the chalcogenide glasses possess large nonlinearities that can enable compact Raman amplifiers as well as fiber lasers and amplifiers in the mid-IR. These high nonlinearities also allow efficient supercontinuum generation, which is useful for broadband sources in the near and mid-IR. These materials can also be poled to induce an effective chi((2)), opening up the potential of waveguide parametric amplifiers and sources. The Brillouin gain coefficients are relatively large and enable the demonstration of slow light in small core fibers. Results lead to a figure of merit that is about 140 times larger, or a theoretical gain about 45 times larger, than the best silica-based fiber configurations reported to date.

ID FAILED STATES
AB This article engages with the latest (post-Cold War) debate about the theory and practice of nation building (state building). This is linked to a discussion of the shift in US foreign policy towards Afghanistan relative to Iraq between late 2008 and late 2009. Afghanistan is currently a major focus of nation building efforts and counter-insurgency programs led by the United States of America. Meanwhile, the discussion here ranges from South Vietnam to Colombia, Iraq and Afghanistan, and explores some of the ghosts that now haunt the US presence in Afghanistan 9 years on from the start Operation Enduring Freedom at the end of 2001. We argue that the possibility of successful nation building in Afghanistan is both far-fetched and far-off. In fact, what is required is the reorientation and reduction (even termination) of Washington and its allies' direct commitment to Kabul. Washington and its allies should focus on a grand strategy for the Middle East and Asia that attaches far less importance to Afghanistan. This should occur in the context of understanding the history of the emergence, universalization and contemporary crisis of the nation-state system. Nowhere are the limits of the nation-state system and the failure of nation building more apparent today than in Afghanistan. In this context a whole new approach to questions of war, peace and progress is in order. The comprehensive elaboration of a new security-development framework is beyond the scope of this article, but we conclude by elaborating some of the main elements of a new framework: this will include a point of departure for research and policy to move beyond the current crisis of the nation-state system and nation building.

AB The intrusive formulation of polynomial chaos expansion is implemented to determine uncertainty in aerodynamic loads on a rigid airfoil due to imprecise parameters that characterize an incoming gust. The results yield the sensitivity of the lift coefficient to variations in intensities and integral length scales of the gust fluctuations. The results show that lift coefficient fluctuations about the mean of each time step are affected primarily by the intensity of the fluctuations of the vertical velocity component, which should be expected. Next in order of importance is the integral length scale of the vertical velocity component. This implementation of the intrusive polynomial chaos expansion provides guidance for future efforts to quantify uncertain gust loads on micro air vehicles with higher fidelity models.

AB A general methodology for estimating the requirements for defeating an explosive-containing mortar threat by an intercepting array of explosively generated natural and controlled fragments is discussed along with the experimental data supporting quantitative interpretation. The target response of covered TNT impacted by single fragments is predicted through numerically determined shock-to-detonation thresholds as well as empirical penetration equations. Included in the methodology is a comprehensive, deterministic endgame model that consists of an intercept model, a static and dynamic fragment model, and a hit model generating the number of effective hits for arbitrary intercept situations. Experimental data supporting the assumptions of the models are reported. The model is also useful in establishing interceptor requirements. [DOI: 10.1115/1.4001713]

AB Intentionally doped n-type 4H-SiC films were grown on 4 degrees and 8 degrees off-axis substrates to investigate the influence of electron concentration on the incorporation of electron traps Z(1/2) and EH(6/7). No discernible change was seen in the Z(1/2) and EH(6/7) trap concentrations for films grown on both orientations with electron concentrations in the range of 1 x 10(14) to 1 x 10(16) cm(-3), suggesting that the Z(1/2) and EH(6/7) traps are not associated with isolated carbon vacancies. The defect concentrations did not correlate with the measured carrier lifetimes, which is consistent with a carrier lifetime controlled by other recombination centers. Observed decreases in lifetime were related to increases in doping levels, with similar trends seen for both orientations. Carrier lifetimes in 8 degrees material were slightly longer than in 4 degrees films for similar doping concentrations, most likely being associated with surface recombination and/or extended defects.

TI Arthroscopic Repair of Circumferential Lesions of the Glenoid Labrum
Surgical Technique
SO JOURNAL OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY-AMERICAN VOLUME
LA English
DT Article
AB BACKGROUND: Symptomatic pan-labral or circumferential (360) tears of the glenohumeral labrum are an uncommon injury. The purpose of the present study was to report the results of surgical treatment of circumferential lesions of the glenoid labrum with use of validated outcome instruments.
METHODS: From July 2003 to May 2006, forty-one shoulders in thirty-nine patients (thirty-four men and five women) with a mean age of 25.1 years were prospectively enrolled in a multicenter study and were managed for a circumferential (360) lesion of the glenoid labrum. All patients had a primary diagnosis of pain and recurrent shoulder instability, and all underwent arthroscopic repair of the circumferential labral tear with a mean of 7.1 suture anchors. The outcomes for thirty-nine of the forty-one shoulders were assessed after a mean duration of follow-up of 31.8 months on the basis of the rating of pain and instability on a scale of 0 to 10, a physical examination, and three outcome instruments (the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score, the modified American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score, and the Short Form-12 score).
RESULTS: Significant improvement was noted in terms of the mean pain score (from 4.3 to 1.1), the mean instability score (from 7.3 to 0.2), the mean modified American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score (from 55.5 to 89.6), the mean Short Form-12 score (from 75.7 to 90.0), and the mean Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score (from 36.7 to 88.5). Six shoulders required revision surgery because of recurrent instability (two), recalcitrant biceps tendinitis (two), or postoperative tightness (two). All patients returned to their preinjury activity level.
CONCLUSIONS: Pan-labral or circumferential lesions are an uncommon yet extensive injury of the glenohumeral joint that may result in recurrent instability and pain. The present study demonstrates that arthroscopic capsulolabral repair with suture anchor fixation can restore the stability of the glenohumeral joint and can provide a reliable improvement in subjective and objective outcome measures.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level IV. See Instructions to Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

AB Enterotoxigenic Escherichia coli (ETEC) is a major cause of childhood diarrhea. The present study sought to determine the prevalence and distribution of toxin types, colonization factors (CFs), and antimicrobial susceptibility of ETEC strains isolated from Peruvian children. We analyzed ETEC strains isolated from Peruvian children between 2 and 24 months of age in a passive surveillance study. Five E. coli colonies per patient were studied by multiplex real-time PCR to identify ETEC virulence factors. ETEC-associated toxins were confirmed using a GM1-based enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Confirmed strains were tested for CFs by dot blot assay using 21 monoclonal antibodies. We analyzed 1,129 samples from children with diarrhea and 744 control children and found ETEC in 5.3% and 4.3%, respectively. ETEC was more frequently isolated from children > 12 months of age than from children < 12 months of age (P < 0.001). Fifty-two percent of ETEC isolates from children with diarrhea and 72% of isolates from controls were heat-labile enterotoxin (LT) positive and heat-stable enterotoxin (ST) negative; 25% and 19%, respectively, were LT negative and ST positive; and 23% and 9%, respectively, were LT positive and ST positive. CFs were identified in 64% of diarrheal samples and 37% of control samples (P < 0.05). The most common CFs were CS6 (14% and 7%, respectively), CS12 (12% and 4%, respectively), and CS1 (9% and 4%, respectively). ST-producing ETEC strains caused more severe diarrhea than non-ST-producing ETEC strains. The strains were most frequently resistant to ampicillin (71%) and co-trimoxazole (61%). ETEC was thus found to be more prevalent in older infants. LT was the most common toxin type; 64% of strains had an identified CF. These data are relevant in estimating the burden of disease due to ETEC and the potential coverage of children in Peru by investigational vaccines.

AB A joint Taiwanese-U.S. field experiment was conducted in the South China Sea (SCS), entitled the South China Sea Oceanic Processes Experiment (Taiwan)/Non-Linear Internal Waves Initiative (US) (SCOPE/NLIWI), the ocean acoustics portion of which occurred during April 12-22, 2007. The acoustics objective was to quantify the temporal and spatial variability in acoustic propagation characteristics on the continental shelf in the presence of locally-generated and trans-basin nonlinear internal waves (NLIW). Broadband (400 Hz center frequency) m-sequence signals transmitted nearly continuously by a source moored near the seabed were received by vertical line arrays at 3 and 6 km range. The acoustic transect was oriented approximately parallel to the wave fronts of the shoaling trans-basin NLIW's which had crossed the deep basin from their origin in the Luzon Strait. The acoustic propagation variability due to strong vertical and horizontal refraction induced by the very large NLIW's creates an extremely complex acoustic field as a function of time and space. Experimental data and numerical acoustic propagation modeling results are presented to (1) examine and estimate the contribution of internal wave induced horizontal refraction to the received acoustic field; and (2) to quantify the range of propagation angles relative to the internal wave fronts within which strong horizontal refraction occurs and 3D propagation models are required to accurately predict the range-and depth-dependent acoustic propagation.

AB Nonlinear internal wave (NIW) results in three dimensional acoustic effect such as ducting and whispering gallery effects in acoustic propagation. Acoustic energy restricted within internal wave crests (crest-crest) on the shelf constitutes the ducting effect, and energy confined along the crest when the source is located upslope from the NIW crest is known as the whispering gallery effect. Numerical experiments are presented in this paper for the study of 3D acoustic effects caused by both internal wave and wedge-bathymetry. 3D effects are predicted by Wide-Angle- FOR3D and the modal contents are calculated by MOS3DPEF. Following are the case studies detailing differences between 2D and 3D calculation, and the joint effect of propagating internal waves with upslope-bathymetry. Modeled time series of transmission Loss reveal that internal wave induces the oceanic waveguide and concentrate acoustic energy along the wave front. By modeling larger calculation ranges (20 km) and deeper deploying sources, the changing of the growth and decline of acoustic energy and lower acoustic mode amplitude by range, along the front of internal wave can be observed in this paper.

AB Near atmospheric pressure solution growth is one of the many developing methods for growing bulk GaN from solution. Apart from other approaches, this method holds certain advantages, such as relatively low growth pressure and temperature, and the ability to grow high quality GaN crystals with different orientations by varying the solvent composition. GaN whiskers of millimeter scale size with exceptional mechanical and optical properties were grown from solution. Crystals of near isotropic shape were also grown from solution by manipulating additives in the basic solvent. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The properties of GaN crystals grown from solution at temperatures ranging from 780 to 810 degrees C and near atmospheric pressure similar to 0.14 MPa, have been investigated using low temperature X-band (similar to 9.5 GHz) electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy, micro-Raman spectroscopy, photoluminescense spectroscopy, and photoluminescence imaging. Our samples are spontaneously nucleated thin platelets of approximate dimensions of 2 x 2 x 0.025 mm(3), or samples grown on both polycrystalline and single crystal HVPE large-area (similar to 3 x 8 x 0.5 mm(3)) seeds. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra consists of a single Lorentzian line with axial symmetry about the c-axis, with approximate g-values, g(parallel to) = 1.951 and g(perpendicular to) = 1.948 and a peak-to-peak linewidth of similar to 4.0 G. This resonance has been previously assigned to shallow impurity donors/conduction electrons in GaN and attributed to Si- and/or O impurities. Room temperature photoluminescence and photoluminescence imaging data from both Ga- and N-faces show different dominant emission bands, suggesting different incorporation of impurities and/or native defects. Raman scattering and X-ray diffraction show moderate to good crystalline quality. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

High-resolution room temperature Raman scattering studies demonstrate that stress-free crystals with low free-electron background have been produced. Low and room temperature photoluminescence experiments confirm the presence of shallow donors and an unknown shallow acceptor. Large relative intensity variations of the emission bands assigned to recombination process involving donors and acceptor, resulting from significant changes in the incorporation and/or activation of defect associated with each recombination channel, reflect major changes in the intrinsic material properties.

AB High voltage GaN Schottky diodes require a thick blocking layer with an exceptionally low carrier concentration. To this aim, a metal organic chemical vapor deposition process was developed to create a (14 mu m) thick stress-free homoepitaxial GaN film. Low temperature photoluminescence measurements are consistent with low donor background and low concentration of deep compensating centers. Capacitance-voltage measurements performed at 30 degrees C verified a low level of about 2 x 10(15) cm(-3) of n-type free carriers (unintentional doping), which enabled a breakdown voltage of about 500 V. A secondary ion mass spectrometry depth profile confirms the low concentration of background impurities and X-ray diffraction extracted a low dislocation density in the film. These results indicate that thick GaN films can be deposited with free carrier concentrations sufficiently low to enable high voltage rectifiers for power switching applications.

AB This paper documents the design of a low-order, fixed-gain, controller that can maintain the positioning performance of an electrohydraulic actuator operating under variable load with a leaking piston seal. A set of linear time-invariant equivalent models of the faulty hydraulic actuator is first established, in the frequency domain, by Fourier transformation of acceptable actuator input-output responses. Then, a robust position control law is synthesized by quantitative feedback theory to meet the prescribed design tolerances on closed-loop stability and reference tracking. The designed fault tolerant controller uses only actuator position as feedback, yet it can accommodate nonlinearities in the hydraulic functions, maintain robustness against typical parametric uncertainties, and maintain the closed-loop performance despite a leakage fault that can bypass up to 40% of the rated servovalve flow across the actuator piston. To demonstrate the utility of the fault tolerant control approach in a realistic application, the experimental fault tolerant hydraulic system is operated as a flight surface actuator in the hardware-in-the-loop simulation of a high-performance jet aircraft.

TI DUTY HOURS IN EMERGENCY MEDICINE: BALANCING PATIENT SAFETY, RESIDENT

THE 2008 INSTITUTE OF MEDICINE RESIDENT DUTY HOURS RECOMMENDATIONS
SO JOURNAL OF EMERGENCY MEDICINE
LA English
DT Article

AB Background: Representatives of emergency medicine (EM) were asked to develop a consensus report that provided a review of the past and potential future effects of duty hour requirements for EM residency training. In addition to the restrictions made in 2003 by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education, the potential effects of the 2008 Institute of Medicine (IOM) report on resident duty hours were postulated. Discussion: The elements highlighted include patient safety, resident wellness, and the resident training experience. Many of the changes and recommendations did not affect EM as significantly as other specialties. Current training standards in EM have already emphasized patient safety by requiring continuous onsite supervision of residents. Resident fatigue has been addressed with restrictions of shift lengths and limitation of consecutive days worked. Conclusion: One recommendation from the IOM was a required 5-h rest period for residents on call. Emergency department (ED) patient safety becomes an important concern with the decrease in the availability and in the patient load of a resident consultant that may result from this recommendation. Of greater concern is the already observed slower throughput time for admitted patients waiting for resident care, which will increase ED crowding and decrease patient safety in academic institutions. A balance between being overly prescriptive with duty hour restrictions and trying to improve resident wellness was recommended. Discussion is included regarding the appropriate length of EM training programs if clinical experiences were limited by new duty hour regulations. Finally, this report presents a review of the financing issues associated with any changes. (C) 2010 Elsevier Inc.

SO JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING FOR GAS TURBINES AND POWER-TRANSACTIONS OF THE
ASME
LA English
DT Article
ID WATER-VAPOR; MICROTURBINES; OXIDATION
AB A three kilowatt turboshaft engine with a ceramic recuperator and turbine has been designed for small unmanned air vehicle (UAV) propulsion and portable power generation. Compared with internal combustion (IC) engines, gas turbines offer superior reliability, engine life, noise and vibration characteristics, and compatibility with military fuels. However, the efficiency of miniature gas turbines must be improved substantially, without severely compromising weight and cost, if they are to compete effectively with small IC engines for long-endurance UAV propulsion. This paper presents a design overview and supporting analytical results for an engine that could meet this goal. The system architecture was chosen to accommodate the limitations of mature, cost-effective ceramic materials: silicon nitride for the turbine rotors and toughened mullite for the heat exchanger and turbine stators. An engine with a cycle pressure ratio below 2:1, a multistage turbine, and a highly effective recuperator is shown to have numerous advantages in this context. A key benefit is a very low water vapor-induced surface recession rate for silicon nitride, due to an extremely low partial pressure of water in the combustion products. Others include reduced sensitivity to internal flaws, creep, and foreign object damage; an output shaft speed low enough for grease-lubricated bearings; and the potential viability of a novel premixed heat-recirculating combustor.

AB Set size and crowding affect search efficiency by limiting attention for recognition and attention against competition; however, these factors can be difficult to quantify in complex search tasks. The current experiments use a quantitative measure of the amount and variability of visual information (i.e., clutter) in highly complex stimuli (i.e., digital aeronautical charts) to examine limits of attention in visual search. Undergraduates at a large southern university searched for a target among 4, 8, or 16 distractors in charts with high, medium, or low global clutter. The target was in a high or low local-clutter region of the chart. In Experiment 1, reaction time increased as global clutter increased, particularly when the target was in a high local-clutter region. However, there was no effect of distractor set size, supporting the notion that global clutter is a better measure of attention against competition in complex visual search tasks. As a control, Experiment 2 demonstrated that increasing the number of distractors leads to a typical set size effect when there is no additional clutter (i.e., no chart). In Experiment 3, the effects of global and local clutter were minimized when the target was highly salient. When the target was nonsalient, more fixations were observed in high global clutter charts, indicating that the number of elements competing with the target for attention was also high. The results suggest design techniques that could improve pilots' search performance in aeronautical charts.

AB The potential for adverse health effects of using tungsten and its alloys in military munitions are an important concern to both civilians and the US military. The toxicological implications of exposure to tungsten, its alloys, and the soluble tungstate (Na2WO4) are currently under investigation. To examine tungstate toxicity, a series of experiments to determine its in vitro effects on cells of the immune system were performed. We identified alterations in isolated human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) treated in vitro with sodium tungstate (0.01, 0.1, 1.0, and 10 mM). Analyses of apoptosis with annexin V and propidium iodide revealed a dose-and time-dependent increase in the quantity of cells in early apoptosis after tungstate exposure. Reductions in the number of cells entering into the cell cycle were also noted. Exposure of PBL to tungstate (1 mM) and Concanavalin A (ConA) for 72 h reduced the number of cells in S and G(2)/M phases of the cell cycle. There were alterations in the numbers of cells in G(0)/G(1), S, and G(2)/M phases of the cell cycle in long-term THP-1 (acute leukemic monocytes) cultures treated with tungstate (0.01, 0.1, 1.0, and 10 mM). Gel electrophoresis, silver staining, and LC-MS/MS showed the cytoplasmic presence of histone H1b and H1d after 72 h of tungstate exposure. The addition of tungstate to cultures resulted in significant reductions in the quantity of interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), and IL-6 produced by stimulated [CD3/CD28, ConA, or lipopolysaccharide (LPS)] and tungstate-treated lymphocytes. Taken together, these data indicate that tungstate increases apoptosis of PBL, alters cell cycle progression, reduces cytokine production, and therefore warrants further investigation.

TI Detection of gyrA mutation among clinical isolates of Campylobacter
jejuni isolated in Egypt by MAMA PCR
SO JOURNAL OF INFECTION IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES
LA English
DT Article
DE fluoroquinolone resistance; mismatch sequence detection; Africa
AB Introduction: Campylobacter spp are the major cause of enteritis in humans and more than 90% of reported infections are caused by Campylobacter jejuni. Fluoroquinolones such as ciprofloxacin are the antibiotics of choice for treatment. An increase in the frequency of ciprofloxacin-resistant Campylobacter has been reported globally due to a single base mutation (C-257 to T) in codon 86 of the quinolone resistance determining region (QRDR) of the gyrA gene altering the amino acid sequence from threonine at position 86 to isoleucine (Thr-86 to Ile).
Methodology: Campylobacter spp (n = 118) were selected from a collection of Egyptian isolates spanning 1998 to 2005. The presence of C. jejuni gyrA gene was confirmed in each isolate by a PCR assay amplifying 368bp portion of the gyrA gene. C to T alteration was detected by the mismatch amplification mutation assay MAMA PCR. The MIC of nalidixic acid (NA) and ciprofloxacin (CIP) was determined by E-test.
Results: C. jejuni gyrA gene was detected in 100 of the Campylobacter spp studied; the other 18 isolates were found to be Campylobacter coli by lpxA PCR. The mutation was detected in 89 C. jejuni resistant isolates with MIC values (NA; 8 - >256 mu g/ml) and (CIP; 4 - >32 mu g/ml). The other 11 sensitive C. jejuni isolates with MIC values (NA; 0.38 - 3 mu g/ml) and (CIP; 0.03 - 0.125 mu g/ml) were not amplified by the MAMA primers. There was 100% congruence with MAMA PCR, MIC results and gyrA gene sequence analysis.
Conclusions: In Egypt the main mechanism for resistance to fluoroquinolones is an alteration in the gyrA QRDR. MAMA PCR provides an economical and rapid means for screening fluoroquinolone resistance.

AB Microstructure evolution in an as-cast Na modified Al-7%Si (wt. pct.) alloy was examined during redundant and monotonic straining by repetitive equi-channel angular pressing (ECAP) under ambient temperature conditions, and during friction stir processing (FSP). Redundant straining during repetitive ECAP was accomplished by processing following route B(C) while monotonic straining employed route A. Single- and multi-pass FSP was conducted on this same as-cast material using an FSP tool having a threaded pin. The as-cast microstructure comprises equiaxed primary alpha dendrite cells embedded in the Al-Si eutectic constituent. The evolution of this microstructure during repetitive ECAP can be described by idealized models of this process. The primary and eutectic constituents can still be discerned and the Si particle distribution is not homogenized even during ambient temperature processing involving von Mises strains > 9.0. In contrast, the primary and eutectic constituents cannot be distinguished in the stir zone after even a single FSP pass. Strain estimates based on the shape change of the primary alpha constituent indicate that the Si particle distribution has become homogeneous at local von Mises strains of 2.5-3.0 during the FSP thermomechanical cycle. Mechanical property data are consistent with strain path during SPD processing by repetitive ECAP and FSP.

AB Transplant glomerulopathy (TG) is associated with rapid decline in glomerular filtration rate and poor outcome. We used low-density arrays with a novel probabilistic analysis to characterize relationships between gene transcripts and the development of TG in allograft recipients. Retrospective review identified TG in 10.8% of 963 core biopsies from 166 patients; patients with stable function were studied for comparison. The biopsies were analyzed for expression of 87 genes related to immune function and fibrosis by using real-time PCR, and a Bayesian model was generated and validated to predict histopathology based on gene expression. A total of 57 individual genes were increased in TG compared with stable function biopsies (P < 0.05). The Bayesian analysis identified critical relationships between ICAM-1, IL-10, CCL3, CD86, VCAM-1, MMP-9, MMP-7, and LAMC2 and allograft pathology. Moreover, Bayesian models predicted TG when derived from either immune function (area under the curve [95% confidence interval] of 0.875 [0.675 to 0.999], P = 0.004) or fibrosis (area under the curve [95% confidence interval] of 0.859 [0.754 to 0.963], P < 0.001) gene networks. Critical pathways in the Bayesian models were also analyzed by using the Fisher exact test and had P values <0.005. This study demonstrates that evaluating quantitative gene expression profiles with Bayesian modeling can identify significant transcriptional associations that have the potential to support the diagnostic capability of allograft histology. This integrated approach has broad implications in the field of transplant diagnostics. (J Mol Diagn 2010, 12:653-663; DOI: 10.2353/jmoldx.2010.090101)

AB New parameterizations for the spectral dissipation of wind-generated waves are proposed. The rates of dissipation have no predetermined spectral shapes and are functions of the wave spectrum and wind speed and direction, in a way consistent with observations of wave breaking and swell dissipation properties. Namely, the swell dissipation is nonlinear and proportional to the swell steepness, and dissipation due to wave breaking is nonzero only when a nondimensional spectrum exceeds the threshold at which waves are observed to start breaking. An additional source of short-wave dissipation is introduced to represent the dissipation of short waves due to longer breaking waves. A reduction of the wind-wave generation of short waves is meant to account for the momentum flux absorbed by longer waves. These parameterizations are combined and calibrated with the discrete interaction approximation for the nonlinear interactions. Parameters are adjusted to reproduce observed shapes of directional wave spectra, and the variability of spectral moments with wind speed and wave height. The wave energy balance is verified in a wide range of conditions and scales, from the global ocean to coastal settings. Wave height, peak and mean periods, and spectral data are validated using in situ and remote sensing data. Some systematic defects are still present, but, overall, the parameterizations probably yield the most accurate estimates of wave parameters to date. Perspectives for further improvement are also given.

AB The circulation and mesoscale eddies in the Persian Gulf are investigated using results from a high-resolution (similar to 1 km) Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM). The circulation in the Persian Gulf is composed of two spatial scales: basin scale and mesoscale. The progression of a cyclonic circulation cell dominates the basin-scale circulation in the eastern half of the gulf (52 degrees-55 degrees E) during March-July. This is primarily the consequence of density-driven outflow-inflow through the Strait of Hormuz and strong stratification. A northwestward-flowing Iranian Coastal Current (ICC; 30-40 cm s(-1)) between the Strait of Hormuz and north of Qatar (similar to 52 degrees E) forms the northern flank of the cell. Between July and August the ICC becomes unstable because of the baroclinic instability mechanism by releasing the potential energy stored in the cross-shelf density gradient. As a result, the meanders in the ICC evolve into a series of mesoscale eddies, which is denoted as the Iranian coastal eddies (ICE). The ICE have a diameter of about 115-130 km and extend vertically over most of the water column. Three cyclonic eddies produced by the model during August-September 2005 compared quite well with the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) SST and chlorophyll-a observations. The remnants of ICE are seen until November, after which they dissipate as the winter cooling causes the thermocline to collapse.

AB Hepatitis C virus (HCV) prevalence is high among injection drug users (IDUs) in Afghanistan. Duration of injection and young age at first injection are common risk factors for HCV in IDU populations. The association of HCV with these time factors was analyzed.
Socio-demographic and drug use behavior information were collected. Participants had rapid testing for HCV with recombinant immunoblot assay confirmation. Modeling of non-linear associations was performed using fractional polynomial logistic regression.
Among 459 male IDUs, age at first injection had a constant HCV risk (odds ratio (OR): 1.01 per year; 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.98-1.03), while each additional year of injection drug use had a significantly increased risk (OR: 4.72 per year, 95% CI: 2.92-7.66). HCV risk increased significantly with each additional year of injecting drug use by groups of injectors: young (< 22 years, OR: 1.97; 95% CI: 1.27-3.07), middle (23-28 years, OR: 1.76; 95% CI: 1.28-2.43) and older (>= 29 years, OR: 7.56; 95% CI: 3.15-18.14).
The probability of HCV infection increased markedly by duration of injection drug use and varied according to age at first injection. Drug counseling and educational efforts should be directed to older drug users who have not yet initiated injecting and to young IDUs to avert infection and reduce risky drug use behaviors.

TI An Experimental Method to Satisfy Dynamic Similarity Requirements for
Model Submarine Maneuvers
SO JOURNAL OF SHIP RESEARCH

DE hydrodynamics (hull form); submersibles; manuevering
AB Dimensional analysis and dynamic similarity requirements show that Reynolds, Froude, and Strouhal scales are important parameters to be satisfied for free-running submarine model (FRM) maneuvering experiments so that they correctly represent full-scale behavior. The requirement that all three scales be satisfied simultaneously presents conflicting demands on the relationship between the velocity U and the characteristic length L of the model. The inability to meet these demands presents technical challenges to properly satisfy dynamic similarity for the FRM. Instead, we take a first-principles approach by considering the forces and moments acting on the vehicle and seek solutions that dynamically produce the same scaled forces and moments on the model as exist on the full-scale vehicle. Thus, this paper presents an extended dynamic similarity theory, introducing scaling formulas that have been derived from similarity solutions. These are applied to an unsteady turning maneuver of the FRM to suggest an improved experimental program. The improved approach will then dynamically satisfy the aforementioned three scaling parameters.

ID CIRCUMFERENTIALLY VARYING THICKNESS; PROPAGATION; WAVES
AB The equations for the free vibration of an elliptic cylindrical shell of constant thickness were derived using a Ritz approach. A higher order shell theory is employed that includes the effects of shear deformation, rotary inertia, and symmetric and antisymmetric thickness stretch deformations. The frequency-wavenumber spectrum has seven branches: flexural, extensional, torsional, two thickness shear, and two thickness stretch. The resulting seven coupled algebraic equations are symmetric and positive definite. The shell has a constant thickness, h, finite length, L, and is "simply supported" at its ends, (z=0, L), where z is the axial coordinate. The elliptic cross-section is defined by the shape parameter, a, and the half-length of the major axis, l. The modal solutions are expanded in a doubly infinite series of comparison functions in terms of circular functions in the angular and axial coordinates. Numerical results for the natural frequencies were obtained for two values of h/l and L/l, and various shape parameters, including the limiting case of a simply supported cylindrical shell (a approximate to 100).

AB Arrays of up to six broadband suction cup hydrophones were placed on the forehead of two bottlenose dolphins to determine the location where the beam axis emerges and to examine how signals in the acoustic near-field relate to signals in the far-field. Four different array geometries were used; a linear one with hydrophones arranged along the midline of the forehead, and two around the front of the melon at 1.4 and 4.2 cm above the rostrum insertion, and one across the melon in certain locations not measured by other configurations. The beam axis was found to be close to the midline of the melon, approximately 5.4 cm above the rostrum insert for both animals.. The signal path coincided with the low-density, low-velocity core of the melon; however, the data suggest that the signals are focused mainly by the air sacs. Slight asymmetry in the signals were found with higher amplitudes on the right side of the forehead. Although the signal waveform measured on the melon appeared distorted, when they are mathematically summed in the far-field, taking into account the relative time of arrival of the signals, the resultant waveform matched that measured by the hydrophone located at 1 m.

AB Odontocete brain tissues associated with auditory processing are hypertrophied and modified relative to their terrestrial counterparts. The relationship between the functional demand on these tissues and metabolic substrate requirements is unknown. Using positron emission tomography (PET), relative cerebral blood flow was measured in a bottlenose dolphin. Approximately 60 mCi (13)NH(3) was administered to the dolphin via a catheter inserted into the hepatic vein and threaded proximate to the vena cava. Radio label initially appeared as distributed focal points in the cerebellum. Increasing scan time resulted in an increase in the number of focal regions and in the diffusivity of label activity throughout the brain. The time course and spatial distribution of radiolabel was consistent with a cerebral blood supply dominated by the spinal meningeal arteries. Blood flow was predominantly observed in the cerebellum and neocortex, particularly the auditory and visual cortex. Differential brain glucose uptake, previously measured in a separate dolphin, showed good agreement with the differential supply of blood to brain tissues. Rates of blood supply and glucose uptake in the auditory cortex, inferior colliculus, and cerebellum are consistent with a high metabolic demand of tissues which are important to the integration of auditory and other sensory inputs.

AB The study of site-specific brain activity associated with dolphin echolocation has been hampered by the difficulties inherent in administering radiolabels and performing medical imaging while a dolphin echolocates in an aquatic environment. To overcome these limitations, a system has been developed to allow a bottlenose dolphin to echolocate while out of the water. The system relies on a "phantom echo generator" (PEG) consisting of a Texas Instruments C6713 digital signal processor with an analog input/output daughtercard. Echolocation clicks produced by the dolphin are detected with a hydrophone embedded in a suction cup on the melon, then digitized within the PEG. Clicks exceeding a user-defined threshold are convolved with a target impulse response, delayed, and scaled before being converted to analog and transmitted through a sound projector embedded in a suction cup attached to the dolphin's lower jaw. Dolphin in-air echolocation behavior, inter-click intervals, and overall performance were analogous to those observed during comparable underwater testing with physical targets, demonstrating that the dolphin was indeed performing an echolocation task while out of water.

AB Low-frequency sound propagating through the ocean is partly attenuated by the pH-dependent boric acid relaxation process. Thus, the uptake of increased levels of atmospheric CO(2) by seawater, leading to reduced pH, has potential to change ambient noise levels. An important question is: By how much? Here, changes in ambient noise level due to hypothetical changes in seawater pH have been calculated at three receiver locations for years 1960 and 2250. The calculations used a range dependent propagation model that was applied to realistic environments based on climatology. Model results indicate changes in noise levels less than 0.21 dB are anticipated.

AB Ocean acidification has been observed since the beginning of the industrial era and is expected to further reduce ocean pH in the future. A significant increase in ocean noise has been suggested based upon the percentage change in acoustic absorption coefficient at low frequencies. Presented here is an analysis using transmission loss models of all relevant loss mechanisms for three environments experiencing a significant near-surface pH reduction of 8.1-7.4. Results show no observable change in the shallow water and surface duct environments, and a statistically insignificant change of less than 0.5 dB for all frequencies in the deep water environment.

AB This paper compares present-day simulations made with two state-of-the-art climate models: a conventional model specifically designed to represent the tropospheric climate, which has a poorly resolved middle atmosphere, and a configuration that is built on the same physics and numerical algorithms but represents realistically the middle atmosphere and lower thermosphere. The atmospheric behavior is found to be different between the two model configurations, and it is shown that the differences in the two simulations can be attributed to differences in the behavior of the zonal mean state of the stratosphere, where reflection of quasi-stationary resolved planetary waves from the lid of the low-top model is prominent; the more realistic physics in the high-top model is not relevant. It is also shown that downward propagation of zonal wind anomalies during weak stratospheric vortex events is substantially different in the two model configurations. These findings extend earlier results that a poorly resolved stratosphere can influence simulations throughout the troposphere.

AB MgO-Y2O3 nanostructured composite powder (volume ratio of 50:50) was synthesized by a sol-gel combustion process which generated crystal sizes in the 10-20 nm range. The MgO-Y2O3 nanopowder was plasma sprayed using a conventional, DC arc plasma spray system. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that the as-sprayed MgO-Y2O3 coating is composed of cubic MgO and Y2O3 phases and has similar to 95% density. Microstructure characterization by SEM reveals that the as-sprayed coating has fine grain sizes of 100-300 nm as a result of rapid solidification. The hardness of the coating, 7.5 +/- A 0.6 GPa, is higher than that of coarse-grained, dense MgO, and Y2O3 ceramics. This approach demonstrates the potential of plasma spray processes for making thick, dense MgO-Y2O3 nanocomposite performs for applications as durable, infrared windows.

By carefully analyzing the structure of each monolayer phase, the authors are able to elucidate the effects of natural templating, provided by Au surface reconstruction and by the geometric constrain of stepped Au surface, in determining the phase of the PTCDI-C13 monolayer.

AB A threshold reverse bias of similar to 21 V was observed leading to a sharp increase in the gate current of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors biased at low source-drain voltage (5 V). The gate current increases by one to two orders of magnitude at this bias, corresponding to an electric field strength around 1.8 MV cm(-1). The gate current increased by roughly five orders of magnitude after step-stressing the gate bias from 10 to 42 V in 1 V increments for 1 min at each bias. The drain current was also decreased by similar to 20% after this step-stress cycle.

AB Comprehensive quarterly serosurveillance on scrub typhus in small mammals collected from military training sites located near the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), northern Gyeonggi-do (Province), ROK was conducted to determine the potential rodent-borne and associated ectoparasite disease risks to military personnel. A total of 1,196 rodents and insectivores representing 8 species, Apodemus agrarius (87.3%, n = 1,044), Mus musculus (5.4%, n = 65), Crocidura lasiura (3.3%, n = 40), Microtus fortis (2.6%, n = 31), Micromys minutus (0.3%, n = 4), Tscherskia triton (0.3%, n = 4), Rattus norvegicus (0.3%, n = 4), and Myodes regulus (0.3%, n = 4) were assayed for the presence of antibodies to Orientia tsutsugamushi. O. tsutsugamushi antibodies were detected in 6 of 8 species and seroprevalence determined; A. agrarius (45.6%), M. musculus (23.1%), M. fortis (48.4%), M. minutus (50.0%), T. triton (50.0%), and R. norvegicus (25.0%). A total of 31,184 chigger mites collected from 508 rodents and insectivores were slide-mounted and 10 species belonging to 4 genera were identified. Leptotrombidium pallidum (53.4%) was the most frequently collected, followed by L. palpale (15.7%), Neotrombicula tamiyai (14.3%), L. orientale (10.7%), L. zetum (3.1%), Walchia fragilis (2.1%), and L. gemiticulum (0.8%), while the remaining 3 species, L. subintermedium, N. gardellai, and Euschoengastia koreaensis were rarely observed (prevalence < 10%). In contrast to previous surveys, higher chigger indices of the primary scrub typhus vectors, L. pallidum (165.4), L. orientale (45.0), and L. palpale (21.4), were observed during the spring season.

AB We point out and examine two nonlinear, hyperbolic equations, both of which arise in kinematic-wave theory, that can be solved exactly using a conditional application of the Cole-Hopf transformation. Both of these equations are based on flux relations that were originally proposed as models of thermal wave phenomena, also known as second-sound. We then show how this method can be extended and used to obtain a particular type of exact solution to a class of nonlinear, hyperbolic PDEs. Published by Elsevier B.V. on behalf of IMACS.

AB The fluence of dust particles < 10 mu m in diameter was recorded by impacts on aluminum foil of the NASA Stardust spacecraft during a close flyby of comet 81P/Wild 2 in 2004. Initial interpretation of craters for impactor particle dimensions and mass was based upon laboratory experimental simulations using projectiles less than > 10 mu m in diameter and the resulting linear relationship of projectile to crater diameter was extrapolated to smaller sizes. We now describe a new experimental calibration program firing very small monodisperse silica projectiles (470 nm-10 mu m) at approximately 6 km s-1. The results show an unexpected departure from linear relationship between 1 and 10 mu m. We collated crater measurement data and, where applicable, impactor residue data for 596 craters gathered during the postmission preliminary examination phase. Using the new calibration, we recalculate the size of the particle responsible for each crater and hence reinterpret the cometary dust size distribution. We find a greater flux of small particles than previously reported. From crater morphology and residue composition of a subset of craters, the internal structure and dimensions of the fine dust particles are inferred and a "maximum-size" distribution for the subgrains composing aggregate particles is obtained. The size distribution of the small particles derived directly from the measured craters peaks at approximately 175 nm, but if this is corrected to allow for aggregate grains, the peak in subgrain sizes is at < 100 nm.

AB A recent advance in the Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS) is described and used to study two-way air-sea coupling and its impact on two different weather scenarios. The first case examines the impact of a hurricane-induced cold ocean wake on simulated changes in the structure of Hurricane Katrina. The second case investigates the effect of wind- and current-induced island wakes and their impact on the local electromagnetic (EM) and acoustic propagation characteristics in the Southern California Bight region. In the Katrina case, both the atmosphere and ocean show a strong response from air-sea interaction. The model results show that wind- induced turbulent mixing, vertical advection, and horizontal advection are the three primary causes of the development of the trailing cold ocean wake. A distinct spatial separation is seen in these three primary forcing terms that are generating the bulk of the cooling in the ocean mixed layer. An asymmetric tropical cyclone structure change has been documented in detail from a more realistic, full physics, and tightly coupled model. These changes include a broadening of the eye, a reduced radius of hurricane-force wind, and a pronounced inner-core dry slot on the west side of the storm. In the island wake experiment, many finescale variations in the wind, current, and static stability structure resulting from the two-way interaction are described. These variations take the form of narrow vorticity and temperature anomalies that are found to reside in the ocean and atmosphere well downwind from the Channel Islands. Upwind differences in the lower-atmospheric wind and thermal structure also arise and are found to have a small impact on the lee-flow structure and EM characteristics of the southernmost Channel Islands.

AB Chemistry at the edges of saturated graphene nanoribbons can cause ribbons to leave the plane and form three-dimensional helical structures. Calculations, based on density functional theory and enabled by adopting helical symmetry, show that F-terminated armchair ribbons are intrinsically twisted in helices, unlike flat H-terminated strips. Twisting ribbons of either termination couple the conduction and valence bands, resulting in band gap modulation. This electromechanical response could be exploited in switches and sensor applications.

DE humanitarian logistics; relief operations; stochastic optimization
ID LOGISTICS; RELIEF
AB A key strategic issue in pre-disaster planning for humanitarian logistics is the pre-establishment of adequate capacity and resources that enable efficient relief operations. This paper develops a two-stage stochastic optimization model to guide the allocation of budget to acquire and position relief assets, decisions that typically need to be made well in advance before a disaster strikes. The optimization focuses on minimizing the expected number of casualties, so our model includes first-stage decisions to represent the expansion of resources such as warehouses, medical facilities with personnel, ramp spaces, and shelters. Second-stage decisions concern the logistics of the problem, where allocated resources and contracted transportation assets are deployed to rescue critical population (in need of emergency evacuation), deliver required commodities to stay-back population, and transport the transfer population displaced by the disaster. Because of the uncertainty of the event's location and severity, these and other parameters are represented as scenarios. Computational results on notional test cases provide guidance on budget allocation and prove the potential benefit of using stochastic optimization.

AB State-controlled media use similar message techniques to target specific publics that counterparts in democratic societies use. We explore talking points (attributes) and themes (frames) through content analysis in state-produced propaganda directed at two different audiences. Domestic and internationally targeted propaganda (N=1491) from Iran regarding the issue of regional security was reviewed. Results indicated Iran emphasized different attributes and frames based on audiences. Themes about enemy correlated, and relationships between officials and themes were explored.

AB Polyvinilidene fluoride (PVDF) single-element transducers for high-frequency (>30 MHz) ultrasound imaging applications have been developed using MEMS (Micro-electro-Mechanical Systems) compatible techniques. Performance of these transducers has been investigated by analyzing the sources and effects of on-chip parasitic capacitances on the insertion-loss of the transducers. Modeling and experimental studies showed that on-chip parasitic capacitances degraded the performance of the transducers and an improved method of fabrication was suggested and new devices were built. New devices developed with minimal parasitic effects were shown to improve the performance significantly. A 1-mm aperture PVDF device developed with minimal parasitic effects has resulted in a reduction of insertion loss of 21 dB compared with devices fabricated using a previous method.

AB Imaging microwave observations of an eruptive, partially occulted solar flare on 18 April 2001 suggest that the global structure of the event can be described by the helical kink instability of a twisted magnetic flux rope. This model is suggested by the inverse gamma shape of the source exhibiting crossing legs of a rising flux loop and by evidence that the legs interact at or near the crossing point. The interaction is reflected by the location of peak brightness near the crossing point and by the formation of superimposed compact nonthermal sources most likely at or near the crossing point. These sources propagate upward along both legs, merge into a single, bright source at the top of the structure, and continue to rise at a velocity > 1000 km s(-1). The compact sources trap accelerated electrons which radiate in the radio and hard X-ray ranges. This suggests that they are plasmoids, although their internal structure is not revealed by the data. They exhibit variations of the radio brightness temperature at a characteristic time scale of similar to aEuro parts per thousand 40 s, anti-correlated to their area, which also support their interpretation as plasmoids. Their propagation path differs from the standard scenario of plasmoid formation and propagation in the flare current sheet, suggesting the helical current sheet formed by the instability instead.

AB Numerical simulations of the helical (m=1) kink instability of an arched, line-tied flux rope demonstrate that the helical deformation enforces reconnection between the legs of the rope if modes with two helical turns are dominant as a result of high initial twist in the range I broken vertical bar a parts per thousand(3)6 pi. Such a reconnection is complex, involving also the ambient field. In addition to breaking up the original rope, it can form a new, low-lying, less twisted flux rope. The new flux rope is pushed downward by the reconnection outflow, which typically forces it to break as well by reconnecting with the ambient field. The top part of the original rope, largely rooted in the sources of the ambient flux after the break-up, can fully erupt or be halted at low heights, producing a "failed eruption." The helical current sheet associated with the instability is squeezed between the approaching legs, temporarily forming a double current sheet. The leg -aEuro parts per thousand leg reconnection proceeds at a high rate, producing sufficiently strong electric fields that it would be able to accelerate particles. It may also form plasmoids, or plasmoid-like structures, which trap energetic particles and propagate out of the reconnection region up to the top of the erupting flux rope along the helical current sheet. The kinking of a highly twisted flux rope involving leg -aEuro parts per thousand leg reconnection can explain key features of an eruptive but partially occulted solar flare on 18 April 2001, which ejected a relatively compact hard X-ray and microwave source and was associated with a fast coronal mass ejection.

AB Although the results of operative treatment of posterior and multidirectional instability (P-MDI) of the shoulder have improved, they are not as reliable as those treated for anterior instability of the shoulder. This may be attributed to the complexities in the classification, etiology, and physical examination of a patient with suspected posterior and multidirectional instability. Failure to address the primary and concurrent lesion adequately and the development of pain and/or stiffness are contributing factors to the failure of P-MDI procedures. Other pitfalls include errors in history and physical examination, failure to recognize concomitant pathology, and problems with the surgical technique or implant failure. Patulous capsular tissues and glenoid version also play in role management of failed P-MDI patients. With an improved understanding of pertinent clinical complaints and physical examination findings and the advent of arthroscopic techniques and improved implants, successful strategies for the nonoperative and operative management of the patient after a failed posterior or multidirectional instability surgery may be elucidated. This article highlights the common presentation, physical findings, and radiographic workup in a patient that presents after a failed P-MDI repair and offers strategies for revision surgical repair.

AB Adenovirus coinfections present opportunities for genome recombination. Computational analysis of an HAdV-C5 field strain genome, recovered from a patient with acute respiratory disease and coinfected with HAdV-B21, shows that there was no exchange of genomic material into HAdV-C5. Comparison of this genome to the sparsely amplified prototype demonstrates a high level of sequence conservation and stability of this genome across 45 years. Further, comparison to a version of the prototype that had been passaged in laboratory settings shows stability as well. HAdV genome stability and evolution are considerations for applications as vaccines and as vectors for gene delivery. In the annotation analysis, a single sequencing error in the HAdV-C5_ARM (Adenovirus Reference Material) genome is noted and may lead to erroneous annotation and biological interpretations.

AB A spectral element (SE) implementation of the Givoli-Neta non-reflecting boundary condition (NRBC) is considered for the solution of the Klein-Gordon equation. The infinite domain is truncated via an artificial boundary B, and a high-order NRBC is applied on B. Numerical examples, in various configurations, concerning the propagation of a pressure pulse are used to demonstrate the performance of the SE implementation. Effects of time integration techniques and long term results are discussed. Specifically, we show that in order to achieve the full benefits of high-order accuracy requires balancing all errors involved: this includes the order of accuracy of the spatial discretization method, time-integrators, and boundary conditions.

CA STAR Collaboration
TI Azimuthal di-hadron correlations in d plus Au and Au plus Au collisions
at root s(NN)=200 GeV measured at the STAR detector
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW C

DT Article
ID AU+AU COLLISIONS; RADIATION; PLASMA
AB Yields, correlation shapes, and mean transverse momenta p(T) of charged particles associated with intermediate-to high-p(T) trigger particles (2.5 < p(T) < 10 GeV/c) in d + Au and Au + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV are presented. For associated particles at higher p(T) greater than or similar to 2.5 GeV/c, narrow correlation peaks are seen in d + Au and Au + Au, indicating that the main production mechanism is jet fragmentation. At lower associated particle pT < 2 GeV/c, a large enhancement of the near- (Delta phi similar to 0) and away-side (Delta phi similar to pi) associated yields is found, together with a strong broadening of the away-side azimuthal distributions in Au + Au collisions compared to d + Au measurements, suggesting that other particle production mechanisms play a role. This is further supported by the observed significant softening of the away-side associated particle yield distribution at Delta phi similar to pi in central Au + Au collisions.

AB Conically emitted second harmonic radiation was observed when a relativistically intense, ultrashort laser pulse was focused into a jet of gas. This second harmonic electro-optic shock is the result of frequency mixing within the sheath of electrons surrounding a highly cavitated plasma region created by the ponderomotive force of the laser. Strong correlation between the second harmonic characteristics and electron acceleration has been observed.

DT Article
ID WIND TERMINATION SHOCK; SOLAR-WIND; 95 AU; EVOLUTION; UPSTREAM; IONS
AB The density and temperature profiles of the plasma measured by Voyager 2 (V2) behind the termination shock changed abruptly near 2008.6 from relatively large average values and large fluctuations during 2007.7 to 2008.6 (interval A) to relatively low average values and very small-amplitude fluctuations during 2008.6 to 2009.4 (interval B). This paper shows that the change in the magnetic field strength B(t) was less abrupt than the plasma changes, and the fluctuations of the magnetic field strength in interval B were of moderate amplitude, with indications of a quasiperiodic structure in part of the interval. The magnetic field was directed away from the sun (positive polarity) similar to 78% +/- 5% of the time in both interval A and interval B, changing in an irregular way from positive to negative polarities throughout the interval. The polarity distribution indicates that the minimum latitudinal extent of the heliospheric current sheet (HCS) was near V2 throughout the interval, consistent with the extrapolated minimum latitudes of the HCS computed from solar magnetic field observations. Thus, V2 was observing magnetic fields from the southern polar coronal hole most of the time. The distribution of B was lognormal in interval A and Gaussian interval B.

TI A computationally compact representation of Magnetic-Apex and
Quasi-Dipole coordinates with smooth base vectors
SO JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH-SPACE PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
ID HIGH-LATITUDES; SYSTEM; THERMOSPHERE; FIELD
AB Many structural and dynamical features of the ionized and neutral upper atmosphere are strongly organized by the geomagnetic field, and several magnetic coordinate systems have been developed to exploit this organization. Quasi-Dipole coordinates are appropriate for calculations involving horizontally stratified phenomena like height-integrated currents, electron densities, and thermospheric winds; Modified Apex coordinates are appropriate for calculations involving electric fields and magnetic field-aligned currents. The calculation of these coordinates requires computationally expensive tracing of magnetic field lines to their apexes. Interpolation on a precomputed grid provides faster coordinate conversions, but requires the overhead of a sufficiently fine grid, as well as finite differencing to obtain coordinate base vectors. In this paper, we develop a compact and robust representation of the transformation from geodetic to Quasi-Dipole (QD), Apex, and Modified Apex coordinates, by fitting the QD coordinates to spherical harmonics in geodetic longitude and latitude. With this representation, base vectors may be calculated directly from the expansion coefficients. For an expansion truncated at order 6, the fitted coordinates deviate from the actual coordinates by a maximum of 0.4 degrees, and typically by 0.1 degrees. The largest errors occur in the equatorial Atlantic region. Compared to interpolation on a pre-computed grid, the spherical harmonic representation is much more compact and produces smooth base vectors. An algorithm for efficiently and concurrently computing scalar and vector spherical harmonic functions is provided in the appendix. Computer code for producing the expansion coefficients and evaluating the fitted coordinates and base vectors is included in the auxiliary material.

DT Article
ID 2-DAY WAVE; MIDDLE ATMOSPHERE; MESOSPHERE; SUMMER; SABER; MODEL
AB [1] We present a case study of the non-linear interaction between the quasi-two day wave (Q2DW) and the migrating diurnal tide based on global synoptic meridional wind fields for January 2006 and January 2008 from a high-altitude data assimilation/forecast system. We find large quasi-two day wave amplitudes, small diurnal tide amplitudes, and phase locking of the Q2DW with the diurnal cycle during January 2006. In January 2008 the amplitudes of the Q2DW were much smaller, with no evidence of phase locking, while the tidal amplitudes were larger than in the 2006 case. Space-time spectral analysis reveals an enhancement in a diurnal zonal wavenumber 6 feature in the January 2006 case, which can be attributed to a non-linear interaction between the Q2DW and migrating diurnal tide. The relatively strong summer easterly jet in the extratropical upper mesosphere during early January 2006 appears to have created conditions favoring this interaction. Citation: McCormack, J. P., S.

TI Anomalously low solar extreme-ultraviolet irradiance and thermospheric

SO GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH LETTERS

DT Article
ID GENERAL-CIRCULATION MODEL; EUV FLUX; MESOSPHERE
AB Solar activity during 2007-2009 was very low, and during this protracted solar minimum period, the terrestrial thermosphere was cooler and lower in density than expected. Measurements from instruments on the SOHO and TIMED spacecraft, and by suborbital rocket flights, indicate that solar extreme-ultraviolet irradiance levels were lower than they were during the previous solar minimum. Analysis of atmospheric drag on satellite orbits indicate that the thermosphere was lower in density, and therefore cooler, and than at any time since the beginning of the space age. However, secular change due to increasing levels of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, which cool the upper atmosphere, also plays a role in thermospheric climate. Simulations by the NCAR Thermosphere-Ionosphere-Electrodynamics General Circulation Model are compared to thermospheric density measurements, yielding evidence that the primary cause of the low thermospheric density was the unusually low level of solar extreme-ultraviolet irradiance.

TI Coupling optical and electrical gating for electronic readout of quantum
dot dynamics
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID SINGLE-ELECTRON; TIME-DOMAIN; TRANSPORT; SPIN; OSCILLATIONS;
CONDUCTANCE; MOLECULES; SYSTEM
AB We explore the coherent transfer of electronic signatures from a strongly correlated, optically gated nanoscale quantum dot to a weakly interacting, electrically backgated microscale channel. In this unique side-coupled "T" geometry for transport, we predict a mechanism for detecting Rabi oscillations induced in the dot through quantum, rather than electrostatic means. This detection shows up directly in the dc conductance-voltage spectrum as a field-tunable split in the Fano lineshape arising due to interference between the dipole coupled dot states and the channel continuum. The split is further modified by the Coulomb interactions within the dot that influence the detuning of the Rabi oscillations. Furthermore, time resolving the signal we see clear beats when the Rabi frequencies approach the intrinsic Bohr frequencies in the dot. Capturing these coupled dynamics requires attention to memory effects and quantum interference in the channel as well as many-body effects in the dot. We accomplish this coupling by combining a Fock-space master equation for the dot dynamics with the phase-coherent, non-Markovian time-dependent nonequilibrium Green's function transport formalism in the channel through a properly evaluated self-energy and a Coulomb integral. The strength of the interactions can further be modulated using a backgate that controls the degree of hybridization and charge polarization at the transistor surface.

TI Rapid Identification of Genetic Modifications in Bacillus anthracis
Using Whole Genome Draft Sequences Generated by 454 Pyrosequencing
SO PLOS ONE
LA English
DT Article
ID INHALATIONAL ANTHRAX; TECHNOLOGIES; CEREUS; BIOTERRORISM; EVOLUTION;
STRAIN
AB Background: The anthrax letter attacks of 2001 highlighted the need for rapid identification of biothreat agents not only for epidemiological surveillance of the intentional outbreak but also for implementing appropriate countermeasures, such as antibiotic treatment, in a timely manner to prevent further casualties. It is clear from the 2001 cases that survival may be markedly improved by administration of antimicrobial therapy during the early symptomatic phase of the illness; i. e., within 3 days of appearance of symptoms. Microbiological detection methods are feasible only for organisms that can be cultured in vitro and cannot detect all genetic modifications with the exception of antibiotic resistance. Currently available immuno or nucleic acid-based rapid detection assays utilize known, organism-specific proteins or genomic DNA signatures respectively. Hence, these assays lack the ability to detect novel natural variations or intentional genetic modifications that circumvent the targets of the detection assays or in the case of a biological attack using an antibiotic resistant or virulence enhanced Bacillus anthracis, to advise on therapeutic treatments.
Methodology/ Principal Findings: We show here that the Roche 454-based pyrosequencing can generate whole genome draft sequences of deep and broad enough coverage of a bacterial genome in less than 24 hours. Furthermore, using the unfinished draft sequences, we demonstrate that unbiased identification of known as well as heretofore-unreported genetic modifications that include indels and single nucleotide polymorphisms conferring antibiotic and phage resistances is feasible within the next 12 hours.
Conclusions/ Significance: Second generation sequencing technologies have paved the way for sequence-based rapid identification of both known and previously undocumented genetic modifications in cultured, conventional and newly emerging biothreat agents. Our findings have significant implications in the context of whole genome sequencing-based routine clinical diagnostics as well as epidemiological surveillance of natural disease outbreaks caused by bacterial and viral agents.

cases and a fatal pneumonia, isolated during 2006-2007 epidemics in
North America

AB Background: Human adenovirus 14 (HAdV-14) is a recognized causative agent of epidemic febrile respiratory illness (FRI). Last reported in Eurasia in 1963, this virus has since been conspicuously absent in broad surveys, and was never isolated in North America despite inclusion of specific tests for this serotype in surveillance methods. In 2006 and 2007, this virus suddenly emerged in North America, causing high attack rate epidemics of FRI and, in some cases, severe pneumonias and occasional fatalities. Some outbreaks have been relatively mild, with low rates of progression beyond uncomplicated FRI, while other outbreaks have involved high rates of more serious outcomes.
Methodology and Findings: In this paper we present the complete genomic sequence of this emerging pathogen, and compare genomic sequences of isolates from both mild and severe outbreaks. We also compare the genome sequences of the recent isolates with those of the prototype HAdV-14 that circulated in Eurasia 30 years ago and the closely related sequence of HAdV-11a, which has been circulating in southeast Asia.
Conclusions: The data suggest that the currently circulating strain of HAdV-14 is closely related to the historically recognized prototype throughout its genome, though it does display a couple of potentially functional mutations in the fiber knob and E1A genes. There are no polymorphisms that suggest an obvious explanation for the divergence in severity between outbreak events, suggesting that differences in outcome are more likely environmental or host determined rather than viral genetics.

AB Background: Plasmodium falciparum apical membrane antigen-1 (AMA1) is a leading malaria vaccine candidate antigen that is expressed by sporozoite, liver and blood stage parasites. Since CD8+ T cell responses have been implicated in protection against pre-erythrocytic stage malaria, this study was designed to identify MHC class I-restricted epitopes within AMA1.
Methods: A recombinant adenovirus serotype 5 vector expressing P. falciparum AMA1 was highly immunogenic when administered to healthy, malaria-naive adult volunteers as determined by IFN-gamma ELISpot responses to peptide pools containing overlapping 15-mer peptides spanning full-length AMA1. Computerized algorithms (NetMHC software) were used to predict minimal MHC-restricted 8-10-mer epitope sequences within AMA1 15-mer peptides active in ELISpot. A subset of epitopes was synthesized and tested for induction of CD8+ T cell IFN-gamma responses by ELISpot depletion and ICS assays. A 3-dimensional model combining Domains I + II of P. falciparum AMA1 and Domain III of P. vivax AMA1 was used to map these epitopes.
Results: Fourteen 8-10-mer epitopes were predicted to bind to HLA supertypes A01 (3 epitopes), A02 (4 epitopes), B08 (2 epitopes) and B44 (5 epitopes). Nine of the 14 predicted epitopes were recognized in ELISpot or ELISpot and ICS assays by one or more volunteers. Depletion of T cell subsets confirmed that these epitopes were CD8+ T cell-dependent. A mixture of the 14 minimal epitopes was capable of recalling CD8+ T cell IFN-gamma responses from PBMC of immunized volunteers. Thirteen of the 14 predicted epitopes were polymorphic and the majority localized to the more conserved front surface of the AMA1 model structure.
Conclusions: This study predicted 14 and confirmed nine MHC class I-restricted CD8+ T cell epitopes on AMA1 recognized in the context of seven HLA alleles. These HLA alleles belong to four HLA supertypes that have a phenotypic frequency between 23% - 100% in different human populations.

TI Optically Generated 2-Dimensional Photonic Cluster State from Coupled
Quantum Dots
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID COMPUTER; SPIN
AB We propose a method to generate a two-dimensional cluster state of polarization encoded photonic qubits from two coupled quantum dot emitters. We combine the proposal for generating one-dimensional cluster state strings from a single dot, with a new proposal for an induced conditional phase gate between the two quantum dots. The entanglement between the two dots translates to entanglement between the two photonic cluster state strings. Further interpair coupling of the quantum dots using cavities and wave-guides can lead to a two-dimensional cluster sheet, the importance of which stems from the fact that it is a universal resource for quantum computation. Analysis of errors indicates that our proposal is feasible with current technology. Crucially, the emitted photons need not have identical frequencies, and so there are no constraints on the resonance energies for the quantum dots.

AB Dielectrophoretic force was employed to position ZnO nanoflowers on a p-type GaN thin film prepatterned with Ti/Al/Ni/Au n-type and Ni/Au p-type contact metallizations. Analytical and finite element calculations were employed to determine the optimal alternating current frequency to attract the randomly dispersed ZnO nanoflowers to the n-type contact located on but isolated from the p-GaN thin film. The n-type ZnO nanoflower/p-type GaN thin film heterojunction displayed rectifying current-voltage behavior characteristic of a pristine p-n junction diode and emitted violet light under forward bias above 4.7-5.5 V.

AB Shigellosis is a leading cause of diarrhea worldwide prompting vaccine development. The Shigella flexneri Invaplex 50 is a macromolecular complex containing IpaB, IpaC, and LPS, formulated from an aqueous extract of virulent Shigella delivered via nasal administration. Preclinical vaccine testing demonstrated safety, immunogenicity and efficacy. An open-label dose-escalating phase 1 study evaluated a 3-dose (2-week intervals) regimen via nasal pipette delivery. Thirty-two subjects were enrolled into one of four vaccine dose groups (10, 50,240, or 480 mu g). The vaccine was well tolerated with minor short-lived nasal symptoms without evidence of dose effect. Antibody-secreting cell (ASC) responses were elicited at doses >= 50 mu g with the highest IgG ASC, Invaplex 50 (100%) and S. flexneri 2a LPS (71%), as well as, serologic responses (43%) occurring with the 240 mu g dose. Fecal IgA responses, Invaplex 50(38.5%) and LPS (30.8%), were observed at doses >= 240 mu g. The Invaplex 50 nasal vaccine was safe with encouraging mucosal immune responses. Follow-on studies will optimize dose, delivery mechanism and assess efficacy in a S. flexneri 2a challenge study. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

TI Using conformationally locked nucleosides to calibrate the anomeric

AB Steric and electronic parameters, such as the anomeric effect (AE) and gauche effect play significant roles in steering the North <-> South equilibrium of nucleosides in solution.
Two isomeric oxa-bicyclo[3.1.0]hexane nucleosides that are conformationally locked in either the North or the South conformation of the pseudorotational cycle were designed to study the consequences of having the AE operational or not, independent of other parameters. The rigidity of the system allowed the orientation of the orbitals involved to be set in 'fixed' relationships, either antiperiplanar where the AE is permanently 'on', or gauche where the AE is impaired. The consequences of these two alternatives were subjected to high-level calculations and measured experimentally by X-ray crystallography, hydrolytic stability of the glycosyl bond, and pK(a) values.

AB The images taken by the Heliospheric Imager (HI) instruments, part of the SECCHI imaging package on board the pair of STEREO spacecraft, provide information on the radial and latitudinal evolution of the plasma transported by coronal mass ejections (CMEs). In this case study, a CME, appearing near 15 UT on 2007 November 15 in SECCHI coronagraph images, leads to the formation of two out-flowing density structures (DSs) in the heliosphere. The analysis of time-elongation maps constructed from images obtained by the HI instruments shows that these DSs were propagating along the Sun-Earth line. A direct comparison of HI images and in situ measurements taken near Earth could therefore be performed. These two DSs are separated by a cavity associated with little brightness variation or equivalently little electron density variation. In situ measurements made in the solar wind near Earth on 2007 November 20 show that this cavity corresponds to a magnetic cloud (MC). While the leading DS is related to the sheath in front of the MC, the second DS is located on the sunward side of the MC where high-speed solar wind from a coronal hole catches up and interacts with the MC. We conclude that HI observes the sub-structures of a merged interaction region (MIR), a region of the interplanetary medium where the total solar wind pressure is greatly enhanced by the interaction of an MC with the ambient solar wind. This MIR caused the largest geomagnetic storm in 2007.

AB We present gamma-ray observations with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-Ray Space Telescope of the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus A (Cen A). The previous EGRET detection is confirmed, and the localization is improved using data from the first 10 months of Fermi science operation. In previous work, we presented the detection of the lobes by the LAT; in this work, we concentrate on the gamma-ray core of Cen A. Flux levels as seen by the LAT are not significantly different from that found by EGRET, nor is the extremely soft LAT spectrum (Gamma = 2.67 +/- 0.10(stat) +/- 0.08(sys) where the photon flux is Phi alpha E-Gamma). The LAT core spectrum, extrapolated to higher energies, is marginally consistent with the non-simultaneous HESS spectrum of the source. The LAT observations are complemented by simultaneous observations from Suzaku, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope and X-ray Telescope, and radio observations with the Tracking Active Galactic Nuclei with Austral Milliarcsecond Interferometry program, along with a variety of non-simultaneous archival data from a variety of instruments and wavelengths to produce a spectral energy distribution (SED). We fit this broadband data set with a single-zone synchrotron/synchrotron self-Compton model, which describes the radio through GeV emission well, but fails to account for the non-simultaneous higher energy TeV emission observed by HESS from 2004 to 2008. The fit requires a low Doppler factor, in contrast to BL Lac objects which generally require larger values to fit their broadband SEDs. This indicates that the gamma-ray emission originates from a slower region than that from BL Lac objects, consistent with previous modeling results from Cen A. This slower region could be a slower moving layer around a fast spine, or a slower region farther out from the black hole in a decelerating flow. The fit parameters are also consistent with Cen A being able to accelerate ultra-high energy cosmic-rays, as hinted at by results from the Auger observatory.

AB In movies made from Fe XII 19.5 nm images, coronal cavities that graze or are detached from the solar limb appear as continually spinning structures, with sky-plane projected flow speeds in the range 5-10 km s(-1). These whirling motions often persist in the same sense for up to several days and provide strong evidence that the cavities and the immediately surrounding streamer material have the form of helical flux ropes viewed along their axes. A pronounced bias toward spin in the equatorward direction is observed during 2008. We attribute this bias to the poleward concentration of the photospheric magnetic flux near sunspot minimum, which leads to asymmetric heating along large-scale coronal loops and tends to drive a flow from higher to lower latitudes; this flow is converted into an equatorward spinning motion when the loops pinch off to form a flux rope. As sunspot activity increases and the polar fields weaken, we expect the preferred direction of the spin to reverse.

DT Article
ID FIBER-OPTIC SENSORS; PHOTONIC LINKS; NOISE
AB The recent availability of DPSK demodulators has spurred interest in phase-modulated analogue RF photonic links, but phase shifts due to birefringence can cause transmission impairments. Presented are measurements of the polarisation-dependent phase shift in a DPSK demodulator created by the relative angle (in Stokes space) between the launch SOP and the demodulator's eigenstate. This phase shift is connected to earlier theoretical predictions, and results are compared to a vendor's specifications for three models. Since imperfect phase modulators may cause modulation of the polarisation at the signal frequency, these impairments may limit RF photonic link performance.

TI Comparison of composite Bragg theory and quad-polarization radar
backscatter from RADARSAT-2: With applications to wave breaking and high

ID LOW GRAZING ANGLES; SEA-SURFACE; ROUGH-SURFACE; SAR IMAGERY;

AB Depolarized (de-pol) radar backscatter is now produced by many spaceborne satellites. Analysis of RADARSAT-2 (R2) quad-polarization (quad-pol) data with collocated in situ ocean wind measurements reveals that the de-pol radar backscatter does not saturate in high winds. This is a significant development for radar wind sensing, because wind retrieval with copolarized (co-pol) backscatter suffers from problems of incidence-and-azimuth-angle-dependent signal saturation and dampening in high winds. We present a study comparing satellite quad-pol measurements with the composite surface Bragg (CB) theory of radar backscattering from the ocean surface. The co-pol data are in good agreement with the CB theory. De-pol data are more sensitive to wind speed compared to theoretical prediction, thus retrieval of high winds is more accurate using the de-pol return. The cubic wind speed dependence of de-pol returns in high winds reflects the significant breaking wave contributions. The relationship can be used to obtain wave-breaking properties from space.

AB We describe the design and preparation of luminescent quantum dots (QDs) modified with terminal nickel-nitrilotriacetic acid (Ni-NTA) groups via simple EDC (N-ethyl-N'-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)carbodiimide hydrochloride) condensation, to form QD-Ni-NTA complexes. The QDs were prepared starting from CdSe-ZnS core shell QDs surface-capped with carboxy-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) ligands. This modification allowed coupling of a controllable number of oligohistidine-tagged proteins via metal-affinity interactions. In particular, QD-Ni-NTA complexes were coupled to 5 x His-tagged maltose binding proteins labeled with Texas red, where effective formation of the QD-MBP-Texas red conjugates was confirmed by agarose gel electrophoresis and fluorescence resonance energy transfer studies. The stability of the QD-MBP conjugates was further tested inside live cells following microinjection directly into the cytoplasm. This design expands on the good colloidal stability afforded by our earlier PEG-based modular ligands which provided QDs with great colloidal stability over a broad range of biologically relevant conditions.

AB We report the first evidence for functionalization of Ga2O3 nanowires (NWs), which have been incorporated as the active material in room temperature capacitance gas-sensing devices. An adsorbed layer of pyruvic acid (PA) was successfully formed on Ga2O3 NWs by simple room temperature vapor transport, which was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The effect of the adsorbed PA on the surface properties was demonstrated by the change in the response of the NW gas-sensing devices. Results indicate that the adsorption of PA reduced the sensitivity of the Ga2O3 NW device to common hydrocarbons such as nitromethane and acetone while improving the response to triethylamine by an order of magnitude. Taking into account the simplicity of this functionalization together with the ease of producing these capacitance-based gas-sensing devices, this approach represents a viable technique for sensor development.

AB Objective: In addition to the main multiple sclerosis (MS) major histocompatibility complex (MHC) risk allele (HLA DRB1*1501), investigations of the MHC have implicated several class I MHC loci (HLA A, HLA B, and HLA C) as potential independent MS susceptibility loci. Here, we evaluate the role of 3 putative protective alleles in MS: HLA A*02, HLA B*44, and HLA C*05.
Methods: Subjects include a clinic-based patient sample with a diagnosis of either MS or a clinically isolated syndrome (n = 532), compared to subjects in a bone marrow donor registry (n = 776). All subjects have 2-digit HLA data. Logistic regression was used to determine the independence of each allele's effect. We used linear regression and an additive model to test for correlation between an allele and MRI and clinical measures of disease course.
Results: After accounting for the effect of HLA DRB1*1501, both HLA A*02 and HLA B*44 are validated as susceptibility alleles (p A*02 0.00039 and p B*44 0.00092) and remain significantly associated with MS susceptibility in the presence of the other allele. Although A*02 is not associated with MS outcome measures, HLA B*44 demonstrates association with a better radiologic outcome both in terms of brain parenchymal fraction and T2 hyperintense lesion volume (p = 0.03 for each outcome).
Conclusion: The MHC class I alleles HLA A*02 and HLA B*44 independently reduce susceptibility to MS, but only HLA B*44 appears to influence disease course, preserving brain volume and reducing the burden of T2 hyperintense lesions in subjects with MS. Neurology (R) 2010; 75: 634-640

AB The equations for threshold-current density J(th), differential quantum efficiency eta(d), and maximum wallplug efficiency eta(wp,max) for quantum-cascade lasers (QCLs) are modified for electron leakage and backfilling. A thermal-excitation model of "hot" injected electrons from the upper laser state to upper active-region states is used to calculate leakage currents. The calculated characteristic temperature T(0) for J(th) is found to agree well with experiment for both conventional and deep-well (DW) QCLs. For conventional QCLs eta(wp,max) is found to be strongly temperature dependent; explaining experimental data. At 300 K for optimized DW-QCLs, front-facet, continuous-wave eta(wp,max) values >20% are projected. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3478836]

Optical intensity waveforms exhibiting complementary modulation are synthesized via polarization pulse shaping; balanced photodetection is then utilized to suppress the waveform pedestal in the electrical domain. This work demonstrates more than 25-dB suppression of unwanted low-frequency content which is within 5 dB of the limit set by the balanced photodiode.

DEFECTS; DEVICES
AB The formation and expansion of recombination-induced stacking faults (SFs) within 4H-SiC bipolar and unipolar devices is known to induce a drift in the forward voltage during forward bias operation. This drift renders devices unsuitable for commercial applications. While the expansion of SFs in 4H-SiC occurs by the recombination-enhanced dislocation glide mechanism, why SF expansion occurs, i.e., the energetic driving force, remains unclear. Recent experiments have revealed that SF contraction and a recovery of the forward voltage drift can be induced under many conditions, including forward bias operation. Such observations have enabled the identification of SF-related degradation in devices where imaging methods are not possible and are inconsistent with the previously reported energetic driving force models. We present a model that qualitatively explains these recent experimental observations, which is based on the quasi-Fermi energy of the electron population during forward bias operation. Device simulation results and further experiments are also reported in support of this model. [doi:10.1063/1.3467793]

AB Electron bunches for high performance free electron lasers are subject to constraints on charge per bunch and pulse shape. A Diamond secondary emitter used in conjunction with a photocathode and drive laser has potential to enable a high brightness, high peak current photoinjector by increasing the effective quantum efficiency of the photocathode. A theoretical characterization of the bunches so produced has been heretofore absent. Using a combination of Monte Carlo and analytical models, the shape of the bunches, their transit time, and emission time constants are determined and shown to be sensitive to the accelerating field in the diamond flake, incident beam profile, doping, and surface conditions. Methods to allow for extension to regimes of technological interest in terms of diamond thickness, external field, and primary pulse shape are given. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics.

DE Hydrodynamics; Ship strike; Whale/vessel collisions
ID ATLANTIC RIGHT WHALES; VESSEL SPEED; MORTALITY; SHIPS; RISK
AB All endangered large whale species are vulnerable to collisions with large ships: and "ship strikes" are the greatest known threat to one of the world's rarest whales, the North Atlantic right whale (Eubalaena glacialis). The magnitude of this threat is likely to increase as maritime commerce expands. Factors influencing the incidence and severity of ship strikes are not well understood, although vessel speed appears to be a strong contributor. The purpose of this study was to characterize the hydrodynamic effects near a moving hull that may cause a whale to be drawn to or repelled from the hull, and to assess the accelerations exerted on a whale at the time of impact. Using scale models of a container ship and a right whale in experimental flow tanks, we assessed hydrodynamic effects and measured accelerations experienced by the whale model in the presence of a moving vessel. Accelerations at impact were measured while the whale was at the surface, for various vessel speeds, orientations of the whale relative to the vessel path, and distances off the direct path of the vessel. Accelerations experienced by the whale model in a collision: increased in magnitude with increasing ship speed: were not dependent on whale orientation to the vessel path: and decreased exponentially with increasing separation distances from the ship track. Subsequent experiments with the whale model submerged at one to two times the ship's draft indicated a pronounced propeller suction effect, a drawing of the whale toward the hull, and increased probability of propeller strikes resulting from this class of encounter. Measured accelerations are a proxy for impact severity, but do not constitute a detailed study of injury mechanism in a living animal, though they may help inform future work. We present a heuristic map of the hydrodynamic field around a transiting hull likely involved in close whale/vessel encounters. These results may have bearing on policy decisions, particularly those involving vessel speed, aimed at protecting large whales from ship strikes worldwide. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The existence of a discontinuity in the modulus of rubber as the strain transitions from compression to extension is strongly suggested by multiple experiments. Classical rubber elasticity theories, however, do not admit such behavior. Here, we investigate a modification of the assumptions of classical elasticity theory to reconcile this discrepancy. We present an analysis of the consequences of assuming that chain forces are nonzero only for chain extension relative to the unstrained state, in contrast to the classical elasticity theory, which assumes that the chain force is directly proportional to the chain end-to-end distance (an entropic spring). Assuming an affine transformation of the network node coordinates, we derive two modulus discontinuity factors between compression and extension: D(1), based on the differing number of network chains being extended and D(2), based on the average differential chain extension. The discontinuities arise due to geometric effects, inherent in the affine transformation between compressive and extensive strains. We find that D(1), the ratio of the numbers of participating chains (compressive/extensive = 1.37), suffices to account for the experimentally observed modulus discontinuity in natural rubber of 1.34.

AB Balance functions have been measured for charged-particle pairs, identified charged-pion pairs, and identified charged-kaon pairs in Au + Au, d + Au, and p + p collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider using the STAR detector. These balance functions are presented in terms of relative pseudorapidity, Delta eta, relative rapidity, Delta y, relative azimuthal angle, Delta phi, and invariant relative momentum, q(inv). For charged-particle pairs, the width of the balance function in terms of Delta eta scales smoothly with the number of participating nucleons, while HIJING and UrQMD model calculations show no dependence on centrality or system size. For charged-particle and charged-pion pairs, the balance functions widths in terms of Delta eta and Delta y are narrower in central Au + Au collisions than in peripheral collisions. The width for central collisions is consistent with thermal blast-wave models where the balancing charges are highly correlated in coordinate space at breakup. This strong correlation might be explained by either delayed hadronization or limited diffusion during the reaction. Furthermore, the narrowing trend is consistent with the lower kinetic temperatures inherent to more central collisions. In contrast, the width of the balance function for charged-kaon pairs in terms of Delta y shows little centrality dependence, which may signal a different production mechanism for kaons. The widths of the balance functions for charged pions and kaons in terms of q(inv) narrow in central collisions compared to peripheral collisions, which may be driven by the change in the kinetic temperature.

ID POWER
AB The spatial resolution of an x-ray CCD detector was determined from the widths of the tungsten x-ray lines in the spectrum formed by a crystal spectrometer in the 58 to 70 keV energy range. The detector had 20 mu m pixel, 1700 by 1200 pixel format, and a CsI x-ray conversion scintillator. The spectral lines from a megavolt x-ray generator were focused on the spectrometer's Rowland circle by a curved transmission crystal. The line shapes were Lorentzian with an average width after removal of the natural and instrumental line widths of 95 mu m (4.75 pixels). A high spatial frequency background, primarily resulting from scattered gamma rays, was removed from the spectral image by Fourier analysis. The spectral lines, having low spatial frequency in the direction perpendicular to the dispersion, were enhanced by partially removing the Lorentzian line shape and by fitting Lorentzian curves to broad unresolved spectral features. This demonstrates the ability to improve the spectral resolution of hard x-ray spectra that are recorded by a CCD detector with well-characterized intrinsic spatial resolution.

AB We report the identification of presolar silicates (similar to 177 ppm), presolar oxides (similar to 11 ppm), and one presolar SiO(2) grain in the Allan Hills (ALHA) 77307 chondrite. Three grains having Si-isotopic compositions similar to SiC X and Z grains were also identified, though the mineral phases are unconfirmed. Similar abundances of presolar silicates (similar to 152 ppm) and oxides (similar to 8 ppm) were also uncovered in the primitive CR chondrite Queen Elizabeth Range (QUE) 99177, along with 13 presolar SiC grains and one presolar silicon nitride. The O-isotopic compositions of the presolar silicates and oxides indicate that most of the grains condensed in low-mass red giant and asymptotic giant branch stars. Interestingly, unlike presolar oxides, few presolar silicate grains have isotopic compositions pointing to low-metallicity, low-mass stars (Group 3). The (18)O-rich (Group 4) silicates, along with the few Group 3 silicates that were identified, likely have origins in supernova outflows. This is supported by their O- and Si-isotopic compositions. Elemental compositions for 74 presolar silicate grains were determined by scanning Auger spectroscopy. Most of the grains have non-stoichiometric elemental compositions inconsistent with pyroxene or olivine, the phases commonly used to fit astronomical spectra, and have comparable Mg and Fe contents. Non-equilibrium condensation and/or secondary alteration could produce the high Fe contents. Transmission electron microscopic analysis of three silicate grains also reveals non-stoichiometric compositions, attributable to non-equilibrium or multistep condensation, and very fine scale elemental heterogeneity, possibly due to subsequent annealing. The mineralogies of presolar silicates identified in meteorites thus far seem to differ from those in interplanetary dust particles.

AB We report on the analysis of Rossi X-Ray Timing Explorer Proportional Counter Array (PCA) monitoring observations of the gamma-ray binary system LS I + 61 degrees 303, covering 35 full cycles of its orbital motion. This constitutes the largest continuous X-ray-monitoring data set analyzed to date for this source. Such an extended analysis allows us to report (1) the discovery of variability in the orbital profiles of the X-ray emission, (2) the existence of a few (recent) short flares on top of the overall behavior typical of the source, which, given the PCA field of view, may or may not be associated with LS I + 61. 303, and (3) the determination of the orbital periodicity using soft X-ray data alone.

AB On 28 October 2008, small-scale rayed artificial airglow was observed at the High frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) heating facility by the HAARP telescopic imager. This airglow occurred during an experiment at twilight from 02551600 UT (1855-2000 LT) and with estimated scale sizes of 100 m (at assumed 225 km altitude) constitutes the smallest structure observed in artificial airglow to date. The rays appeared to be oriented along the geomagnetic field lines. During this period, other instruments, SuperDARN, GPS receivers, stimulated electromagnetic emissions receivers, also recorded unusual data sets with the general characteristic of time scales longer than anticipated for features to form. The experiment took place at the commencement of a small geomagnetic disturbance (Kp of 4.3). This unique observation is as yet unexplained. The airglow features start as large scale structures and then become smaller as heating continues in apparent contradiction to current theories on irregularity development. A thermal gradient instability at boundary of the ionospheric footprint of the plasmapause may be responsible for causing the small-scale structuring. Observations of 427.8 nm N-2(+) (first negative group) emissions indicate the presence of ionization.

AB We present the first direct measurements of the infrared and solar heating rates of a tropical subvisible cirrus (SVC) cloud sampled off the east coast of Nicaragua on 25 July 2007 by the NASA ER-2 aircraft during the Tropical Composition, Cloud and Climate Coupling Experiment (TC4). On this day a persistent thin cirrus layer, with mostly clear skies underneath, was detected in real time by the cloud lidar on the ER-2, and the aircraft was directed to profile down through the SVC. Measurements of the net broadband infrared irradiance and spectrally integrated solar irradiance above, below, and through the SVC are used to determine the infrared and solar heating rates of the cloud. The lidar measurements show that the variable SVC layer was located between similar to 13 and 15 km. Its midvisible optical depth varied from 0.01 to 0.10 with a mean of 0.034 +/- 0.033. Its depolarization ratio was approximately 0.4, indicative of ice clouds. From the divergence of the measured net irradiances the infrared heating rate of the SVC was determined to be similar to 2.50-3.24 K d(-1) and the solar heating rate was found to be negligible. These values are consistent with previous indirect observations of other SVC and with model-generated heating rates of SVC with similar optical depths. This study illustrates the utility and potential of the profiling sampling strategy employed here. A more fully instrumented high-altitude aircraft that also included in situ cloud and aerosol probes would provide a comprehensive data set for characterizing both the radiative and microphysical properties of these ubiquitous tropical clouds.

TI Emittance of a photocathode: Effects of temperature and field
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW SPECIAL TOPICS-ACCELERATORS AND BEAMS

ID EMISSION; SEMICONDUCTORS; CATHODES; GROWTH
AB The emittance of a photocathode is evaluated using a distribution function ("Moments") approach to calculate the moments of the momentum. The effects of temperature and field, which affect the electron distribution and transmission probability, respectively, of electrons incident on the surface barrier, are found. The resulting formulations of emittance are compared to the asymptotic limit found by D. H. Dowell and J.F. Schmerge [Phys. Rev. ST Accel. Beams 12, 074201 (2009)], and their formulation is shown to be more generally applicable than the approximations within it would indicate for metals. The methodology is extended to develop an asymptotic emittance estimate for semiconductor photocathodes.

TI Salt transport in the near-surface layer in the monsoon-influenced
Indian Ocean using HYCOM
SO GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID MIXED-LAYER; SALINITY; SEA
AB Salt advection in the top 5 m layer of the monsoon-influenced Indian Ocean has been studied with high resolution HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) simulated sea surface salinity (SSS) during 2003-06. The effect of monsoon reversals and roles of Ekman drift and geostrophic currents are emphasized. The Ekman drift component is found to be more important than the geostrophic component in exchange of salt in the basins; an indication of the influence of winds and the associated surface currents. The strongest differences in the salt advection terms occurred in the Bay of Bengal (BoB), an indication of the significant role of advection for the distribution of freshwater and the Ekman processes. The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) is seen to influence advection patterns via Ekman drift along the equatorial region. This results in the creation of two salt advection bands whose positions vary seasonally. This study will help to interpret data from the recently launched Soil Moisture Ocean Salinity (SMOS) and future Aquarius salinity missions for the Indian Ocean. Citation: Nyadjro, E. S., B.

TI Tight-binding Hamiltonian for LaOFeAs
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID SUPERCONDUCTIVITY
AB First-principles electronic-structure calculations have been very useful in understanding some of the properties of the new iron-based superconductors. Further explorations of the role of the individual atomic orbitals in explaining various aspects of research in these materials, including experimental work, would benefit from the availability of a tight-binding (TB) Hamiltonian that accurately reproduces the first-principles band-structure results. In this work we have used the Naval Research Laboratory-TB method to construct a TB Hamiltonian from linearized augmented plane wave (LAPW) results. Our TB model includes the Fe d orbitals and the p orbitals from both As and O for the prototype material LaOFeAs. The resulting TB band structure agrees well with that of the LAPW calculations from 2.7 eV below to 0.8 eV above the Fermi level, epsilon(F), and the Fermi surface matches perfectly to that of the LAPW. The TB densities of states (DOSs) are also in very good agreement with those from the LAPW in the above energy range, including the per orbital decomposition. We use our results to provide insights on the existence of a pseudogap in the DOS just above the Fermi level. We have also performed a separate TB fit to a database of LAPW results as a function of volume and with variations in the As positions. This fit although less accurate regarding the band structure near epsilon(F), reproduces the LAPW total energies very well and has transferability to nonfitted energies.

ID NEGATIVE-INDEX; METAMATERIALS; REFRACTION
AB We apply the equivalent theory to orthorhombic anisotropic materials and provide a general unit-cell design criterion for achieving a length-independent retrieval of the effective material parameters from a single layer of unit cells. We introduce a graphical retrieval method and phase unwrapping techniques. The graphical method utilizes the linear regression technique. Our method can reduce the uncertainty of experimental measurements and the ambiguity of phase unwrapping. Moreover, the graphical method can simultaneously determine the bulk values of the six effective material parameters, permittivity and permeability tensors, from a single layer of unit cells.

ID LIGHT-EMITTING-DIODES; P-TYPE GAN; ALGAN/GAN
AB The effects of annealing on the performance of Schottky devices on a-plane GaN/r-plane sapphire were investigated. The results show that the post-anneal Schottky barrier height (SBH) increased with increasing annealing temperature, reaching a peak increase of 43% at 500 degrees C. A further increase in the anneal temperature above 500 degrees C degraded the SBH. The ideality factor displayed a weak dependence on post-annealing temperature until rising dramatically at a post-annealing temperature of 600 degrees C. The degradation at 600 degrees C post-annealing temperature can be attributed to the formation of Nickel-Gallides. In-situ current-voltage characteristics obtained between 15 degrees C and 165 degrees C revealed that both the ideality factor and SBH were stable up to 165 degrees C with increasing in-situ measurement temperature.

AB P>Emergency department (ED) crowding has been identified as a major public health problem in the United States by the Institute of Medicine. ED crowding not only is associated with poorer patient outcomes, but it also contributes to lost demand for ED services when patients leave without being seen and hospitals must go on ambulance diversion. However, somewhat paradoxically, ED crowding may financially benefit hospitals. This is because ED crowding allows hospitals to maximize occupancy with well-insured, elective patients while patients wait in the ED. In this article, the authors propose a more holistic model of hospital flow and revenue that contradicts this notion and offer suggestions for improvements in ED and hospital management that may not only reduce crowding and improve quality, but also increase hospital revenues. Also proposed is that increased efficiency and quality in U.S. hospitals will require changes in systematic microeconomic and macroeconomic incentives that drive the delivery of health services in the United States. Finally, the authors address several questions to propose mutually beneficial solutions to ED crowding that include the realignment of hospital incentives, changing culture to promote flow, and several ED-based strategies to improve ED efficiency.

TI The Cost of Pursuing a Medical Career in the Military: A Tale of Five
Specialties
SO ACADEMIC MEDICINE
LA English
DT Article
ID PHYSICIAN WORKFORCE; STATES
AB Purpose
The physician payment system is a focus of potential reform in the United States. The authors explored the effects of the military's method of physician payment on physicians' returns on educational investment for several specialties.
Method
This retrospective, observational study used national data from 2003 and standard financial techniques to calculate the net present value-the current value of an expected stream of cash flows at a particular rate of interest-of the educational investments of medical students in ten 30-year career paths: either military or civilian careers in internal medicine, psychiatry, gastroenterology, general surgery, or orthopedics.
Results
At a 5% discount rate, in the civilian world, the lowest return on an educational investment accrued to psychiatrists ($1.136 million) and the highest to orthopedists ($2.489 million), a range of $1.354 million. In the military, the lowest returns accrued to internists ($1.377 million) and the highest to orthopedists ($1.604 million); however, the range was only $0.227 million, one-sixth that found in the civilian sector. The authors also found that most military physicians do not remain in the military for their full careers.
Conclusions
Choosing a military career substantially decreases the net present value of an educational investment for interventionalists, but it does so only modestly for primary care physicians. Further, a military career path markedly diminishes specialty-specific variation in the net present values of educational investment. Adopting a military structure for engaging medical students might help reverse the current trend of declining interest in primary care.

AB We describe a simple self-limiting electroless deposition process whereby conformal, nanoscale iron oxide (FeO(x)) coatings are generated at the interior and exterior surfaces of macroscopically thick (similar to 90 mu m) carbon nanofoam paper substrates via redox reaction with aqueous K(2)FeO(4). The resulting FeO(x)-carbon nanofoams are characterized as device-ready electrode structures for aqueous electrochemical capacitors and they demonstrate a 3-to-7 fold increase in charge-storage capacity relative to the native carbon nanofoam when cycled in a mild aqueous electrolyte (2.5 M Li(2)SO(4)), yielding mass-, volume-, and footprint-normalized capacitances of 84 F g(-1), 121 F cm(-3), and 0.85 F cm(-2), respectively, even at modest FeO(x) loadings (27 wt %). The additional charge-storage capacity arises from faradaic pseudocapacitance of the FeO(x) coating, delivering specific capacitance >300 F g(-1) normalized to the content of FeO(x) as FeOOH, as verified by electrochemical measurements and in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The additional capacitance is electrochemically addressable within tens of seconds, a time scale of relevance for high-rate electrochemical charge storage. We also demonstrate that the addition of borate to buffer the Li(2)SO(4) electrolyte effectively suppresses the electrochemical dissolution of the FeO(x) coating, resulting in <20% capacitance fade over 1000 consecutive cycles.

AB OBJECTIVE: This study was undertaken to identify the prognostic indicators associated with postpartum regression of cervical dysplasia diagnosed in pregnancy.
STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective cohort study of pregnant women referred for colposcopy from 2004-2007 at four academic centers.
RESULTS: One thousand seventy-nine patients were identified. Colposcopic impression by cervical cytology is detailed later in the text. Of patients who underwent biopsy, results correlated with or were less severe than colposcopic impression in 83% with CIN 1 and 56% with CIN 2/3. Fifty-seven percent had follow-up postpartum, with 61% reverting normal. Resolution of cervical dysplasia was inversely associated with smoking (P = .002). No progression to cancer occurred during pregnancy.
CONCLUSION: Colposcopic impression in pregnancy correlated with cervical biopsy results and postpartum colposcopic findings when performed by expert colposcopists. A high proportion of cervical dysplasia regressed postpartum. Cervical biopsies in pregnancy may not be necessary unless invasive cancer is suspected.

AB Objectives. We analyzed how ease of geographic access to emergency departments (EDs), defined as driving time to the closest ED, changed between 2001 and 2005, and whether access deterioration was more likely to occur in vulnerable communities.
Methods. We classified communities on the basis of American Hospital Association and Census data into 3 categories according to driving time to the nearest ED: no increase, less than a 10-minute increase, and a 10-minute or more increase. We estimated a multinomial logit model to examine the relative risk ratio (RRR) of various community characteristics.
Results. More than 95% of communities experienced no ED access deterioration. However, 11.4 million people experienced increased driving time to their nearest ED. Low-income communities had a higher risk of facing deteriorating access compared with high-income communities (urban: RRR=3.67; P<.01; rural: RRR= 1.75; P<.10), and communities with higher shares of Hispanics also had higher risks of facing declines (urban: RRR=3.41; P<.10; rural: RRR=2.67; P<.01).
Conclusions. Deteriorating access to EDs is more likely to occur in communities with economic hardship and high shares of Hispanic populations. The uneven access to critical services warrants increased attention from policy-making bodies. (Am J Public Health. 2010;100:1462-1469. doi:10.2105/AJPH.2009.175828)

AB Injuries to the pectoralis major muscle are relatively infrequent but result in pain, weakness, and deformity of the upper extremity. The usual injury mechanism is during eccentric shortening of the pectoralis major under heavy load, such as when performing a bench press exercise. The ability to detect and treat a pectoralis major rupture is important for both the clinician and the patient and is aided with knowledge of the anatomy, the clinical findings, and results of nonoperative and operative care. It is important to understand the physical demands and desires of the patient as well as to understand the outcomes of both nonoperative and operative care to make an informed decision regarding optimal treatment. This article highlights the importance of the clinical examination in identifying the injury, examines various surgical techniques to repair the rupture, and reports on potential complication and reinjury rates.

AB An outbreak of Rift Valley fever (RVF) occurred in Kenya during November 2006 through March 2007. We characterized the magnitude of the outbreak through disease surveillance and serosurveys, and investigated contributing factors to enhance strategies for forecasting to prevent or minimize the impact of future outbreaks. Of 700 suspected cases, 392 met probable or confirmed case definitions; demographic data were available for 340 (87%), including 90 (26.4%) deaths. Male cases were more likely to die than females, Case Fatality Rate Ratio 1.8 (95% Confidence Interval [CI] 1.3-3.8). Serosurveys suggested an attack rate up to 13% of residents in heavily affected areas. Genetic sequencing showed high homology among viruses from this and earlier RVF outbreaks. Case areas were more likely than non-case areas to have soil types that retain surface moisture. The outbreak had a devastatingly high case-fatality rate for hospitalized patients. However, there were up to 180,000 infected mildly ill or asymptomatic people within highly affected areas. Soil type data may add specificity to climate-based forecasting models for RVF.

AB In December 2006, Rift Valley fever (RVF) was diagnosed in humans in Garissa Hospital, Kenya and an outbreak reported affecting 11 districts. Entomologic surveillance was performed in four districts to determine the epidemic/epizootic vectors of RVF virus (RVFV). Approximately 297,000 mosquitoes were collected, 164,626 identified to species, 72,058 sorted into 3,003 pools and tested for RVFV by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction. Seventy-seven pools representing 10 species tested positive for RVFV, including Aedes mcintoshi/circumluteolus (26 pools), Aedes ochraceus (23 pools), Mansonia uniformis (15 pools); Culex poicilipes, Culex bitaeniorhynchus (3 pools each); Anopheles squamosus, Mansonia africana (2 pools each); Culex quinquefasciatus, Culex univittatus, Aedes pembaensis (1 pool each). Positive Ae. pembaensis, Cx. univittatus, and Cx. bitaeniorhynchus was a first time observation. Species composition, densities, and infection varied among districts supporting hypothesis that different mosquito species serve as epizootic/epidemic vectors of RVFV in diverse ecologies, creating a complex epidemiologic pattern in East Africa.

AB Rift Valley fever (RVF) is an important viral zoonotic disease in Africa with periodic outbreaks associated with severe disease, death, and economic hardship. During the 2006-2007 outbreaks in Eastern Africa, postmortem and necropsy tissue samples from 14 animals and 20 humans clinically suspected of RVF were studied with histopathologic evaluation and immunohistochemical (IHC) assays. Six animal and 11 human samples had IHC evidence of Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) antigens. We found that extensive hepatocellular necrosis without prominent inflammatory cell infiltrates is the most distinctive histopathologic change in liver tissues infected with RVFV. Pathologic studies on postmortem tissue samples can help establish the diagnosis of RVF, differentiating from endemic diseases with clinical manifestations similar to RVF, such as malaria, leptospirosis, or yellow fever.

TI Negative Intratracheal Pressure Produced by Esophageal Detector Devices
Causes Tracheal Wall Collapse in a Porcine Cardiac Arrest Model

RELIABILITY; PARTURIENT
AB BACKGROUND: Esophageal detector devices (EDDs) impose negative pressure on the trachea or esophagus to verify endotracheal tube (FIT) position. In cardiac arrest, the smooth muscle of the lower esophageal sphincter relaxes in a time-dependent and irreversible manner. If relaxation also occurs in the muscular posterior tracheal wall, it could predispose tracheal invagination or collapse with negative pressure, potentially yielding false-negative (tracheal ET, EDD indicates esophagus) results. We compared 3 different EDDs in their ability to correctly discriminate tracheal and esophageal intubation.
METHODS: ETTs were placed into the trachea and esophagus of 5 domestic swine, and bronchoscopy was used to visualize the trachea while 3 EDDs were tested. Tracheal wall activity was observed before and after induced cardiac arrest. Tracheal ETTs were aspirated with increasing negative force and pressures at initial wall movement and >50% tracheal lumen obliteration were recorded. Measurements were repeated at 4, 8, and 12 minutes postarrest and pressures at tracheal wall collapse pre- and postarrest were determined. EDDs were also tested on esophageal ETTs prearrest and at 6 and 10 minutes postarrest.
RESULTS: In a closed system, each EDD generated more than -100 cm H(2)O pressure. Average prearrest pressure at tracheal collapse was -112 cm H(2)O. Average postarrest collapse pressures were -68, -66, and -54 cm H(2)O at 4, 8, and 12 minutes postarrest. One EDD consistently gave equivocal results; the remaining 2 gave accurate results in all subjects. Most observed movement was insufficient to cause device failure although tracheal wall movement was noted in all postarrest EDD trials. Esophageal intubation was correctly determined at all times pre- and postarrest.
CONCLUSION: These findings describe a mechanism for false-negative results from decreased posterior tracheal wall tone during cardiac arrest. Further studies are required to elucidate factors contributing to its occurrence and impact on EDD use. (Anesth Analg 2010;111:468-72)

AB Interface fracture of woven fabric composite layers was studied using Mode II fracture testing. Both carbon fiber and E-glass fiber composites were used with a vinyl ester resin. First, the single-step cured (i.e., co-cured) composite interface strength was compared to that of the two-step cured interface as used in the scarf joint technique. The results showed that the two-step cured interface was as strong as the co-cured interface. Carbon nanotubes were then applied to the composite interface using two-step curing, and then followed by Mode II fracture testing. The results indicated a significant improvement of the interface fracture toughness due to the dispersed carbon nanotube layer for both carbon fiber and E-glass fiber composites. The carbon nanotube layer was then evaluated as a means to monitor crack growth along the interface. Because carbon nanotubes have very high electrical conductivity, the electrical resistance was measured through the interface as a crack grew, thus disrupting the carbon nanotube network and increasing the resistance. The results showed a linear relationship between crack length and interface resistance for the carbon fiber composites, and allowed initial detection of failure in the E-glass fiber composites. This study demonstrated that the application of carbon nanotubes along a critical composite interface not only improves fracture properties but can also be used to detect and monitor interfacial damage.

AB Thin polymer films are deposited using matrix-assisted pulsed-laser evaporation and subsequently are characterized by scanning electron and atomic force microscopies. An Er : YAG laser (2937 nm, 350 mu s) is used as a light source and the effect of the energy density supplied by the laser on the morphology of the deposited films is investigated. It is found that the appearance of undesirable non-uniform morphological features arises from either poor solubility of the guest molecules or insufficient energy density provided by the laser to vaporize the entire ejected volume. In addition, the surface roughness of two guest-host systems is found to depend linearly on the polymer concentration. These results allow us to better understand earlier work in the field and to establish a framework by which MAPLE films may be improved.

AB We present a study of the outflowing ionized gas in the resolved narrow-line region of the Seyfert 2 galaxy Mrk 573, and its interaction with an inner dust/gas disk, based on Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 and Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph observations. From the spectroscopic and imaging information, we determined the fundamental geometry of the outflow and inner disk, via two modeling programs used to recreate the morphology of these regions imaged with HST. We also determined that the bicone of ionizing radiation from the active galactic nucleus intersects with the inner disk, illuminating a section of the disk including inner segments of spiral arms, fully seen through structure mapping, which appear to be outflowing and expanding. In addition, we see high velocities at projected distances of >= 2 '' (similar to 700 pc) from the nucleus, which could be due to rotation or in situ acceleration of gas off the spiral arms. We find that the true half-opening angle of the ionizing bicone (53 degrees) is much larger than the apparent half-opening angle (34 degrees) due to the above geometry, which may apply to a number of other Seyferts as well.

AB The Brorfelde Schmidt CCD Catalog (BSCC) contains about 13.7 million stars, north of +49 degrees decl. with precise positions and V, R photometry. The catalog has been constructed from the reductions of 18,667 CCD frames observed with the Brorfelde Schmidt Telescope between 2000 and 2007. The Tycho-2 catalog was used for astrometric and photometric reference stars. Errors of individual positions are about 20-200 mas for stars in the R = 10-18 mag range. External comparisons with the Two Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) and Sloan Digital Sky Survey reveal possible small systematic errors in the BSCC of up to about 30 mas. The catalog is supplemented with J, H, and K(s) magnitudes from the 2MASS catalog.

AB The Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT) discovered a new gamma-ray source near the Galactic plane, Fermi J0109+6134, when it flared brightly in 2010 February. The low Galactic latitude (b = -1 degrees.2) indicated that the source could be located within the Galaxy, which motivated rapid multi-wavelength follow-up including radio, optical, and X-ray observations. We report the results of analyzing all 19 months of LAT data for the source, and of X-ray observations with both Swift and the Chandra X-ray Observatory. We determined the source redshift, z = 0.783, using a Keck Low-Resolution Imaging Spectrometer observation. Finally, we compiled a broadband spectral energy distribution (SED) from both historical and new observations contemporaneous with the 2010 February flare. The redshift, SED, optical line width, X-ray absorption, and multi-band variability indicate that this new GeV source is a blazar seen through the Galactic plane. Because several of the optical emission lines have equivalent width > 5 angstrom, this blazar belongs in the flat-spectrum radio quasar category.

AB Elevated mammographic density (MD) is one of the strongest risk factors for sporadic breast cancer. Epidemiologic evidence suggests that MD is, in part, genetically determined; however, the relationship between MD and BRCA1/2 mutation status is equivocal. We compared MD in unaffected BRCA1/2 mutation carriers enrolled in the U.S. National Cancer Institute's Clinical Genetics Branch's Breast Imaging Study (n = 143) with women at low-to-average breast cancer risk enrolled in the same study (n = 29) or the NCI/National Naval Medical Center's Susceptibility to Breast Cancer Study (n = 90). The latter were BRCA mutation-negative members of mutation-positive families or women with no prior breast cancer, a Pedigree Assessment Tool score < 8 (i.e., low risk of a hereditary breast cancer syndrome) and a Gail score < 1.67. A single experienced mammographer measured MD using a computer-assisted thresholding method. We collected standard breast cancer risk factor information in both studies. Unadjusted mean percent MD was higher in women with BRCA1/2 mutations compared with women at low-to-average breast cancer risk (37.3% vs. 33.4%; P = 0.04), but these differences disappeared after adjusting for age and body mass index (34.9% vs. 36.3%; P = 0.43). We explored age at menarche, nulliparity, age at first birth, menopausal status, number of breast biopsies, and exposure to exogenous hormonal agents as potential confounders of the MD and BRCA1/2 association. Taking these factors into account did not significantly alter the results of the age/body mass index-adjusted analysis. Our results do not provide support for an independent effect of BRCA1/2 mutation status on mammographic density.

AB Laminar burning velocities and flammability limits of premixed methane/air flames in the presence of various diluents were investigated by combined use of experiments and numerical simulations. The experiments used a 1-m free-fall spherical combustion chamber to eliminate the effect of buoyancy, enabling accurate measurements of near-limit burning velocities and flammability limits. Burning velocities were measured for CH(4)/air flames with varying concentrations of He, Ar, N(2) and CO(2) at NTP. The limiting concentration of each diluent was measured by systematically varying the composition and ignition energy and finding the limiting condition through successive experiment trials. The corresponding freely-propagating, planar 1-D flames were simulated using PREMIX. The transient spherically-expanding flames were simulated using the 1-D Spherical Flame & Reactor Module of COSILAB considering detailed radiation models. The results show that helium exhibits more complex limit behavior than the other diluents due to the large Lewis number of helium mixtures. The near-limit helium-diluted flames require much higher ignition energy than the other flames. In addition, for the spherically expanding helium-diluted flames studied here (Le > 1), stretch suppresses flame propagation and may cause flame extinction. For the CO(2)-diluted flames, the flame speed predicted by the optically-thick model based on the Discrete Transfer Method (DTW) and a modified wide band model has better agreement with measurements in the near-limit region. A significant amount of heat is absorbed by the dilution gas CO(2), resulting in elevation of temperature of the ambient gases. The optically-thick model, however, still overpredicts flame speed, indicating a more sophisticated radiation property model may be needed. Finally, the chemical effect of CO(2) on flame suppression was quantified by a numerical analysis. The results show that the chemical effect of CO(2) is more important than the other diluents due to its active participation in the reaction CO(2) + H = CO + OH, which competes for H radicals with the chain-branching reactions and thus reduces flame speed.

TI Beyond Istanbul's 'Laz Underworld': Ottoman Paramilitarism and the Rise

SO CONTEMPORARY EUROPEAN HISTORY
LA English
DT Article
ID ANATOLIA
AB Although the Turkish mafia is increasingly recognised as a powerful force in the ongoing trade in weapons, narcotics and people in Europe and beyond, there are few critical histories of organised crime's origins in Turkey. Rather than present some pedantic general survey of the history of organized crime in modern Turkey, this essay attempts to address two broader critical points of departure. First, how did Anatolia's journey from imperial to republican rule impact, and how was it impacted by, criminal gangs? Second, how do we situate the experience of modern gangs in Turkey in a global context? In attempting to answer these questions, this paper looks at the development of criminal syndicates among Laz migrants in the greater Istanbul area during the first half of the twentieth century. The case of the Laz shows particularly how war, migration, imperial politics, urbanisation and the rise of the international drug trade shaped the parallel development of organised crime and the nascent Turkish Republic.

AB The current review describes advances in the field of bionanotechnology in which viruses are used to fabricate nanomaterials. Viruses are introduced as protein cages, scaffolds, and templates for the production of biohybrid nanostructured materials where organic and inorganic molecules are incorporated in a precise and a controlled fashion. Genetic engineering enables the insertion or replacement of selected amino acids on virus capsids for uses from bioconjugation to crystal growth. The variety of nanomaterials generated in rod-like and spherical viruses is highlighted for tobacco mosaic virus (TMV), M13 bacteriophage, cowpea chlorotic mottle virus (CCMV), and cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV). Functional biohybrid nanomaterials find applications in biosensing, memory devices, nanocircuits, light-harvesting systems, and nanobatteries.

AB The results from a similar to 1 km resolution HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM), forced by 1/2 degrees Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System (NOGAPS) atmospheric data, were used in order to study the dynamic response of the Persian Gulf to wintertime shamal forcing. Shamal winds are strong northwesterly winds that occur in the Persian Gulf area behind southeast moving cold fronts. The period from 20 November to 5 December 2004 included a well defined shamal event that lasted 4-5 days. In addition to strong winds (16 m s(-1)) the winter shamal also brought cold dry air (T(a) = 20 degrees C, q(a) = 10 g kg(-1)) which led to a net heat loss in excess of 1000 W m(-2) by increasing the latent heat flux. This resulted in SST cooling of up to 10 degrees C most notably in the northern and shallower shelf regions. A sensitivity experiment with a constant specific humidity of q(a) = 15 g kg(-1) confirmed that about 38% of net heat loss was due to the air-sea humidity differences. The time integral of SST cooling closely followed the air-sea heat loss, indicating an approximate one-dimensional vertical heat balance. It was found that the shamal induced convective vertical mixing provided a direct mechanism for the erosion of stratification and deepening of the mixed layer by 30 m. The strong wind not only strengthened the circulation in the entire Persian Gulf but also established a northwestward flowing Iranian Coastal Current (ICC, 25-30 cm s(-1)) from the Strait of Hormuz to about 52 degrees E, where it veered offshore. The strongest negative sea level of 25-40 cm was generated in the northernmost portion of the Gulf while the wind setup against the coast of the United Arab Emirates established a positive sea level of 15-30 cm. The transport through the Strait of Hormuz at 56.2 degrees E indicated an enhanced outflow of 0.25 Sv (Sv equivalent to 10(6) m(3) s(-1)) during 24 November followed by an equivalent inflow on the next day.

AB OBJECTIVE Few prospective data exist on the risk of diabetes in individuals serving in the U.S. military. The objectives of this study were to determine whether military deployment, combat exposures, and mental health conditions were related to the risk of newly reported diabetes over 3 years.
RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Data were from Millennium Cohort Study participants who completed baseline (July 2001-June 2003) and follow-up (June 2004-February 2006) questionnaires (follow-up response rate = 71.4%). After exclusion criteria were applied, adjusted analyses included 44,754 participants (median age 36 years, range 18-68 years). Survey instruments collected demographics, height, weight, lifestyle, military service, clinician-diagnosed diabetes, and other physical and mental health conditions. Deployment was defined by U.S. Department of Defense databases, and combat exposure was assessed by self-report at follow-up. Odds of newly reported diabetes were estimated using logistic regression analysis.
RESULTS Occurrence of diabetes during follow-up was 3 per 1,000 person-years. Individuals reporting diabetes at follow-up were significantly older, had greater baseline BMI, and were less likely to be Caucasian. After adjustment for age, sex, BMI, education, race/ethnicity, military service characteristics, and mental health conditions, only baseline posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) was significantly associated with risk of diabetes (odds ratio 2.07 [95% Cl 1.31-3.29]). Deployments since September 2001 were not significantly related to higher diabetes risk, with or without combat exposure.
CONCLUSIONS In this military cohort, PTSD symptoms at baseline but not other mental health symptoms or military deployment experience were significantly associated with future risk of self-reported diabetes.

AB Today's Golden Age of computer forensics is quickly coming to an end. Without a clear strategy for enabling research efforts that build upon one another, forensic research will fall behind the market, tools will become increasingly obsolete, and law enforcement, military and other users of computer forensics products will be unable to rely on the results of forensic analysis. This article summarizes current forensic research directions and argues that to move forward the community needs to adopt standardized, modular approaches for data representation and forensic processing.

AB A 1/12 degrees global version of the HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) using 3-hourly atmospheric forcing is analyzed and directly compared against observations from the International Nusantara STratification ANd Transport (INSTANT) program that provides the first long-term (2004-2006) comprehensive view of the Indonesian Throughflow (ITF) inflow/outflow and establishes an important benchmark for inter-basin exchange, including the net throughflow transport. The simulated total ITF transport (-13.4 Sv) is similar to the observational estimate (similar to 15.0 Sy) and correctly distributed among the three outflow passages (Lombok Strait. Ombai Strait and Timor Passage). Makassar Strait carries similar to 75% of the observed total ITF inflow and while the temporal variability of the simulated transport has high correlation with the observations, the simulated mean volume transport is similar to 37% too low. This points to an incorrect partitioning between the western and eastern inflow routes in the model and is the largest shortcoming of this simulation. HYCOM simulates the very deep (>1250m) overflow at Lifamatola Passage (-2.0 Sv simulated vs. -2.5 Sv observed) and indicates overflow contributions originating from the North (South) Equatorial Current in boreal winter-spring (summer-autumn). A new finding of INSTANT is the mean eastward flow from the Indian Ocean toward the interior Indonesian Seas on the north side of Ombai Strait. This flow is not robustly simulated at 1/12 degrees resolution, but is found in a 1/25 degrees version of global HYCOM using climatological forcing, indicating the importance of horizontal resolution. However, the 1/25 degrees model also indicates that the mean eastward flow retroflects, turning back into the main southwestward Ombai Strait outflow, and in the mean does not enter the interior seas to become part of the water mass transformation process. The 1/12 degrees global HYCOM is also used to fill in the gaps not measured as part of the INSTANT observational network. It indicates the wide and shallow Java and Arafura Seas carry -0.8 Sv of inflow and that the three major outflow passages capture nearly all the total Pacific to Indian Ocean throughflow.

AB Nanoglobules are a form of organic matter found in interplanetary dust particles and primitive meteorites and are commonly associated with N-15 and D isotopic anomalies that are suggestive of interstellar processes. We report the discovery of two isotopically-anomalous organic globules from the Stardust collection of particles from Comet 81P/Wild 2 and compare them with nanoglobules from the Murchison CM2 meteorite. One globule from Stardust Cometary Track 80 contains highly aromatic organic matter and a large N-15 anomaly (delta N-15 = 1120 parts per thousand). Associated, non-globular, organic matter from this track is less enriched in N-15 and contains a mixture of aromatic and oxidized carbon similar to bulk insoluble organic material (IOM) from primitive meteorites. The second globule, from Cometary Track 2, contains non-aromatic organic matter with abundant nitrile (-C N) and carboxyl (-COOH) functional groups. It is significantly enriched in D (delta D = 1000 parts per thousand) but has a terrestrial N-15/N-14 ratio. Experiments indicate that similar D enrichments, unaccompanied by N-15 fractionation, can be reproduced in the laboratory by electron irradiation of epoxy or cyanoacrylate. Thus, a terrestrial origin for this globule cannot be ruled out, and, conversely, exposure to high-energy electron irradiation in space may be an important factor in producing D anomalies in organic materials. For comparison, we report two Murchison globules: one with a large N-15 enrichment and highly aromatic chemistry analogous to the Track 80 globule and the other only moderately enriched in N-15 with IOM-like chemistry. The observation of organic globules in Comet 81P/Wild 2 indicates that comets likely sampled the same reservoirs of organic matter as did the chondrite parent bodies. The observed isotopic anomalies in the globules are most likely preserved signatures of low temperature (<10 K) chemistry in the interstellar medium or perhaps the outer regions of the solar nebula. In other extraterrestrial samples, D isotopic anomalies, but not those of N-15, may be explained in part by exposure to ionizing electron radiation. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

TI Wall-Plug Efficiency and Beam Dynamics in Free-Electron Lasers Using
Energy Recovery Linacs
SO IEEE JOURNAL OF QUANTUM ELECTRONICS

DT Article
DE Electron linear accelerators; free-electron laser (FEL)
AB In a high average power free-electron laser (FEL) the wall-plug efficiency is of critical importance in determining the size, complexity, and cost of the overall system. The wall-plug efficiency for the FEL oscillator and amplifier (uniform and tapered wiggler) is strongly dependent on the energy recovery process. A theoretical model for electron beam dynamics in the energy recovery linac is derived and applied to the acceleration and deceleration of nano-Coulomb electron bunches for a tapered FEL amplifier. For the tapered amplifier, the spent electron beam exiting the wiggler consists of trapped and untrapped electrons. Decelerating these two populations using different phases of the radio-frequency wave in the recovery process enhances wall-plug efficiency. For the parameters considered here, the wall-plug efficiency for the tapered amplifier can be similar to 10% using this approach.

AB The design, fabrication, and integration of a frequency selective surface (FSS) with integrated photodiodes to allow for photonic calibration of phased array antennas is presented. The design includes embedding electrically short dipole antennas in each unit cell of the FSS, with a zero-biased photodiode placed across the gap of the diode. Fibers from an optical distribution network are passed through the honeycomb core of the frequency selective surface and pigtailed to the photodiodes. The RF performance of the frequency selective surface with integrated optics is investigated via simulations and measurements, and the results show that the structure maintains RF-transparency.

lossy-dielectric slab imaging; ultrawideband radar
AB Through-lossy-slab radar imaging will be shown at stand-off ranges using a low-power, ultrawideband (UWB), frequency modulated continuous wave (FMCW) radar system. FMCW is desirable for through-slab applications because of the signal gain resulting from pulse compression of long transmit pulses (1.926-4.069 GHz chirp in 10 ms). The difficulty in utilizing FMCW radar for this application is that the air-slab boundary dominates the scattered return from the target scene and limits the upper bound of the receiver dynamic range, reducing sensitivity for targets behind the slab. A method of range-gating out the air-slab boundary by significant band-limiting of the IF stages facilitates imaging of low radar cross section (RCS) targets behind the slab. This sensor is combined with a 1D linear rail and utilized as a rail synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging system. A 2D model of a slab and cylinder shows that image blurring due to the slab is negligible when the SAR is located at a stand-off range of 6 m or greater, and thus, the two-way attenuation due to wave propagation through the slab is the greatest challenge at stand-off ranges when the air-slab boundary is range-gated out of the scattered return. Measurements agree with the model, and also show that this radar is capable of imaging target scenes of cylinders and rods 15.24 cm in height and 0.95 cm in diameter behind a 10 cm thick lossy dielectric slab. Further, this system is capable of imaging free-space target scenes with transmit power as low as 5 pW, providing capability for RCS measurement.

AB We report the use of the alternating direction implicit (ADI) finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method in a D-H formulation to compute induced current densities and recruitment volumes in the human body due to contact electrodes for human electromuscular incapacitation devices at frequencies below 200 kHz. A computational model resolution of 1 mm has been used for most of the human body model, including regions proximal to the electrode contact points, while a progressively coarser resolution up to 5 mm is utilized, according to an expanding grid scheme for body regions distant from the source, such as the lower extremities. Using quasi-static assumptions, discrete Fourier transforms have been used to average the electric field values at the desired frequencies for times much shorter than their time periods. The field values induced in the human body were then obtained as ratios with respect to the source, which can be scaled depending on the magnitude. This study suggests that the ADI-FDTD method can be used for the solution of low-frequency large-scale bioelectromagnetic problems. It is shown that, when used with quasi-static assumptions, Fourier series decomposition, and expanding grid, the D-H ADI-FDTD can be an effective computational bioelectromagnetics tool.

AB Pulsed laser light has been used to reveal how total ionizing dose radiation affects the propagation of single event transients in a string of inverters. By holding the input to the string of inverters at high voltage (1.8 V) during exposure to ionizing radiation, an asymmetry in the threshold voltages of the n-channel transistors is induced, i.e., the inputs to the inverters alternate between high and low voltage, which results in every odd-numbered n-channel transistor experiencing more Total Ionizing Dose (TID) degradation than the even-numbered n-channel transistors. The asymmetry manifests itself as an additional broadening of laser-light induced transients when the input to the string of inverters is set to low voltage and a contraction of the transients when the input is set to high voltage. Exposure of the inverter string to heavy ions with a fixed input voltage resulted in a contraction of the transients, regardless of whether the input was at high or low voltage, behavior that is consistent with the results from pulsed laser testing.

Single transistors displayed a particularly slow recovery after an ion strike (>100 ns). In logic chains, large amounts of SET duration broadening, up to 30 ps/gate, were measured when the unattenuated rail-to-rail SET propagates to the output of the chain. These floating body effects occur mainly at low frequency. They are induced by the accumulation of majority carriers in the body region which contribute to reduce the threshold voltage of OFF-state transistors. This is a slow phenomenon which takes up to several tenths of a second to build-up. It is demonstrated that floating body effects are reduced when designed with body contacts or when the chain operates at high frequency.

AB The laser energy thresholds for SEU for SOI 1-Mbit SRAMs built in Sandia's 0.35-m SOI technology were measured using carrier generation by two-photon absorption. The laser measurements were correlated to heavy-ion threshold LET measurements to determine an empirical relationship between laser energy threshold and heavy-ion threshold LET. This empirical relationship was used to estimate the threshold LETs for other circuits built in Sandia's 0.35-m SOI technology and SRAMs built in IBM's 45 and 65-nm SOI technologies. For an ASIC built in Sandia's 0.35-m SOI technology the estimated threshold from laser measurements was close to the measured heavy-ion threshold LET. However, for a dual-port SRAM also built in Sandia's 0.35-m SOI technology and for the 45- and 65-nm IBM SOI SRAMs, the threshold LETs estimated from laser measurements did not correlate to the measured heavy-ion threshold LETs. For the IBM SRAMs, the likely cause of the discrepancy between the threshold LETs estimated from laser measurements and the threshold LETs measured by heavy-ion testing is due to the laser pulse simultaneously injecting charge into multiple transistors within a memory cell and/or in adjacent memory cells. This is due to the relatively large size of the laser spot size compared to the size of the SEU sensitive volume of the IBM SOI devices. The hardness assurance implications of these results are discussed.

AB Single event charge collection in AlSb/InAs HEMTs is shown to depend on the gate bias. Spatial correlation between excess channel carriers and the horizontal field is shown to be the key factor. Hole accumulation in the AlSb buffer layer increases the electron concentration in the two-dimensional electron gas, increasing the collected charge. Potential drop across access regions reduces charge collection towards zero gate bias. A secondary but perceptible dependence on high field electron mobility is demonstrated.

AB Defects produced by 0.6 MeV, 1 MeV and 5 MeV electrons are compared with those produced by 2 MeV proton irradiations in p(+) n GaAs diodes using Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy (DLTS). Following 0.6 and 1 MeV electron irradiation, the measured DLTS spectra matched that of the literature. After 5 MeV electron irradiation, however, a new DLTS peak was observed. The new peak is located on the low temperature side of the common E3 peak. This new electron-induced DLTS peak is assigned to be the same peak produced by proton irradiation and commonly labeled PR4 ''. Further analysis of the DLTS data indicate that the PR4 '' peak is independent of the displacement damage dose deposited but is dependent on the primary recoil energy.

AB This paper first reviews the trends of VLSI design, focusing on the power dissipation and programmability. Then, we show the advantage of Quarternary Decision Diagrams (QDDs) in representing and evaluating logic functions. That is, we show how QDDs are used to implement QDD machines, which yield high-speed implementations. We compare QDD machines with binary decision diagram (BDD) machines, and show a speed improvement of 1.28-2.02 times when QDDs are chosen. We consider 1-and 2-address BDD machines, and 3- and 4-address QDD machines, and we show a method to minimize the number of instructions.

AB This paper proposes a high-speed architecture to realize two-variable numeric functions. It represents the given function as an edge-valued multiple-valued decision diagram (EVMDD), and shows a systematic design method based on the EVMDD. To achieve a design, we characterize a numeric function f by the values of I and p for which f is an l-restricted Mp-monotone increasing function. Here, l is a measure of sub-functions of f and p is a measure of the rate at which f increases with an increase in the dependent variable. For the special case of an EVMDD, the EVBDD, we show an upper bound on the number of nodes needed to realize an l-restricted Mp-monotone increasing function. Experimental results show that all of the two-variable numeric functions considered in this paper can be converted into an l-restricted Mp-monotone increasing function with p = 1 or 3. Thus, they can be compactly realized by EVBDDs. Since EVMDDs have shorter paths and smaller memory size than EVBDDs, EVMDDs can produce fast and compact NFGs.

TI Estimating surface water flow speeds using time-frequency methods
SO IET SIGNAL PROCESSING
LA English
DT Article
ID MOVING TARGETS
AB Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image formation implicitly assumes that the backscattered returns arise from stationary isotropic targets. When objects move during the SAR integration time, signal anomalies appear that distort, displace and smear moving targets in the image. Although these anomalies degrade the image, they provide the information that allows analysis of the underlying target motion. Joint time-frequency analysis (JTFA) exploits these signal anomalies to estimate the motion of typical point targets. However, the weak, transient returns from water surface scatterers complicate standard JTFA estimates of water surface speeds. A time-frequency representation is applied based on the Capon's spectral estimation technique that allows joint analysis of multiple azimuth lines, thereby increasing the signal-to-clutter ratio of weak scatterers. The authors compare the time-frequency estimate, employing single-phase-centre SAR data, to along-track interferometric SAR estimates of the same flow and show that both the methods produce comparable results. The authors derive the JTFA equations and estimate water surface speed for data collected at a specific imaging geometry. This study highlights the feasibility of using a single-phase-centre SAR system to determine the motion of slow moving distributed targets representative of water flow.

layers; Large-eddy simulation
ID LARGE-EDDY SIMULATION; REYNOLDS-NUMBERS; WAKE; INSTABILITY
AB Spatial and temporal resolution of transition to turbulence inside the free-shear layers of two yawed circular cylinders is the subject of the present investigation. These physics were resolved using the large-eddy simulation (LES) methodology. An O-type grid was implemented such that the spatial scales of the LES computation fully resolved the energy range physics of the shear layers at Reynolds number Re(D) = 8000 based on the cylinder diameter. The two test cases modeled the cylinder span skewed at angles 45 degrees and 60 degrees from the horizontal axis. Observations revealed the same transition process as the normal cross-flow state. Soon after separation, Tollmien-Schlichting disturbances were predicted that evolved into Kelvin-Helmholtz (K-H) eddies before absorption by the large-scale Karman-type vortices. These eddies defaulted to a spanwise wavy pattern similar to a normal cross-flow due to their three-dimensional instability. No mixed modes were found between the K-H (Bloor) and Strouhal frequencies. The effect of yaw angle shortened the transition process. As a result, peak turbulence levels inside the wake formation zone approach the downstream cylinder periphery. In addition, the dimensionless frequencies of the K-H eddies lie above the normal cross-flow relationship as formulated by Bloor (1964). Disparity between the yawed and normal cross-flow states was further emphasized by the shear-layer transition characteristics. Although each property displayed the expected exponential growth during transition to turbulence, their dimensionless form was miss-aligned with those of the normal cross-flow case. Based on the present evidence, additional simulations (and/or experimental measurements) are necessary to form conclusive arguments regarding the expected behavior of the transition characteristics within the free-shear layers of yawed circular cylinders.

TI Recombination processes controlling the carrier lifetime in n(-)4H-SiC

AB The dominant recombination processes controlling the carrier lifetime in n-type 4H-SiC epitaxial layers grown with low concentrations of the Z(1/2) defect (the dominant bulk lifetime killer), where Z(1/2) no longer determines the lifetime, have been investigated by studying the variation in the carrier lifetime with temperature. The temperature dependent lifetimes were obtained primarily by low-injection photoluminescence decay for several low-Z(1/2) epilayers over a wide temperature range. The results were fitted to simulations of the temperature dependent recombination rate, where bulk, surface and interface recombination was considered. No significant contribution from other bulk defects was observed, and upper limits to the bulk recombination rate were found to be consistent with the low Z(1/2) concentrations measured in these materials. There was also no significant contribution from carrier capture at the epilayer/substrate interface, which is consistent with behavior expected at low injection for low-doped epilayers grown on n(+) substrates. Corresponding high-injection measurements exhibited very different behavior, consistent with the surface/interface under flat-band conditions. Consequently, it is concluded that for low-Z(1/2) materials, control of the carrier lifetime has not been transferred from Z(1/2) to another bulk defect, but is instead dominated by surface and interface recombination. Simulations suggest that further enhancement of the total lifetime under the high injection conditions of a device structure would require very thick epilayers, effectively passivated surface and interface recombination and a further reduction in the remaining Z(1/2) concentrations. The temperature dependence of the low-injection carrier lifetime was also found to provide a method to estimate the surface band bending and the surface defect density.

AB Measurements of chemical transients and thermodynamic conditions are difficult to obtain yet fundamentally important in understanding the behavior of explosives. We have constructed a fast near infrared (NIR) spectrometer and have made temporally and spectrally-resolved emission measurements during postdetonation combustion of pure pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) charges and PETN charges doped with 10 wt % microparticles composed of silver (Ag) and aluminum (Al). We have observed postdetonation PETN emission spectra between 750 and 1500 nm at rates up to 46 992 spectra/s. The instrument captures the highly structured spectra immediately following breakout as well as the longer-lived broadband NIR emission signals from hot particles. The early spectra reveal spectral signatures related to PETN and the reacting constituents of the particles. The later spectra provide a means to infer the gray-body temperature history of the particles. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3437056]

AB Contact mechanisms and design principles for (Ohmic and Schottky) metal (M) contacts to semiconductor nanowires (NWs) have been studied. The NWs have been assumed to be cylindrical. A unified model has been developed for the contacts. The model takes into consideration the amorphicity of the M/NW interface structure, the diameter dependence of the energy band gap, the barrier height modulation, and the fluctuations in both the barrier height and the applied bias. While the fluctuations in the barrier height are assumed to involve band tails, the fluctuations in applied bias are assumed to involve tiny Gaussian peaks. Several different features of the Ohmic and the Schottky contacts have been addressed. These include temperature and dimension dependencies of the current-voltage characteristics, the influence of the M/NW interface on the contact characteristics, the relationship between the barrier height and the ideality factor, and the barrier height reduction as a function of temperature. The model appears to be very general. It seems to explain all experimental results available to date in the literature. The calculated results are almost always in good correspondence with the experimental results. The study seemingly demonstrates an alternative to the doping dependence of the Ohmic contacts. It elucidates the fundamental physics underlying M/NW contacts. It highlights means to yield low-resistivity Ohmic contacts by thermionic emission. It describes design criteria for both Ohmic and Schottky contacts. The design criteria for Ohmic contacts tend to address the long-term reliability concerns for devices. They explain also the behavior of both good and bad Ohmic contacts. All these may be the most striking attributes of the study. These attributes explain why Schottky contacts to NWs, with proper gate modulation, may act also as Schottky barrier transistors. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi: 10.1063/1.3446845]

TI Mitigation of Fretting Fatigue Damage in Blade and Disk Pressure Faces
With Low Plasticity Burnishing
SO JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING FOR GAS TURBINES AND POWER-TRANSACTIONS OF THE
ASME
LA English
DT Article
ID SURFACE MODIFICATION; STRESS; TI-6AL-4V
AB Low plasticity burnishing (LPB) is now established as a surface enhancement technology capable of introducing through-thickness compressive residual stresses in the edges of gas turbine engine blades and vanes to mitigate foreign object damage (FOD). The "fatigue design diagram" (FDD) method has been described and demonstrated to determine the depth and magnitude of compression required to achieve the optimum high cycle fatigue strength, and to mitigate a given depth of damage characterized by the fatigue stress concentration factor, k(f). LPB surface treatment technology and the FDD method have been combined to successfully mitigate a wide variety of surface damage ranging from FOD to corrosion pits in titanium and steel gas turbine engine compressor and fan components. LPB mitigation of fretting-induced damage in Ti-6Al-4V in laboratory samples has now been extended to fan and compressor components. LPB tooling technology recently developed to allow the processing of the pressure faces of fan and compressor blade dovetails and mating disk slots is described. Fretting-induced microcracks that form at the pressure face edge of bedding on both the blade dovetail and the dovetail disk slots in Ti-6-4 compressor components can now be arrested by the introduction of deep stable compression in conventional computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools during manufacture or overhaul. The compressive residual stress field design method employing the FDD approach developed at Lambda Technologies is described in application to mitigate fretting damage. The depth and magnitude of compression and the fatigue and damage tolerance achieved are presented. It was found that microcracks as deep as 0.030 in. (0.75 mm) large enough to be readily detected by current nondestructive inspection (NDI) technology can be fully arrested by LPB. The depth of compression achieved could allow NDI screening followed by LPB processing of critical components to reliably restore fatigue performance and extend component life.

AB Expressions for the bispectral density functions for multi-degree-of-freedom spring-mass-damper systems possessing quadratic nonlinearities and subject to Gaussian excitation are derived. The derivation uses a Volterra-series model for the system response and yields expressions for both auto-spectra, where the output of only one degree-of-freedom is used, and cross-spectra, where the bispectral density contains multiple output-response time series. The proposed formulation is used to identify the presence and location of quadratic nonlinearities in multiple degree-of-freedom systems. Results show that the ability to detect and localize nonlinearity is heavily dependent on which particular bispectral density is utilized.

ID CATHODE MATERIALS; ELECTRODES; CAPACITY
AB Recent advancements using carbon nanotube electrodes show the ability for multifunctionality as a lithium-ion storage material and as an electrically conductive support for other high capacity materials like silicon or germanium. Experimental data show that replacement of conventional anode designs, which use graphite composites coated on copper foil, with a freestanding silicon-[single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT)] anode, can increase the usable anode capacity by up to 20 times. In this work, a series of calculations were performed to elucidate the relative improvement in battery energy density for such anodes paired with conventional LiCoO(2), LiFePO(4), and LiNiCoAlO(2) cathodes. Results for theoretical flat plate prismatic batteries comprising freestanding silicon-SWCNT anodes with conventional cathodes show energy densities of 275 Wh/kg and 600 Wh/L to be theoretically achievable; this is a 50% improvement over today's commercial cells.

Nanofilaments could be imaged on MR-1 cells grown in biofilms or planktonically under both aerobic and anaerobic batch culture conditions after fixation, critical point drying and coating with a conductive metal. Critical point drying was a requirement for imaging nanofilaments attached to planktonically grown MR-1 cells, but not for cells grown in a biofilm.

ID OSCILLATOR
AB We present a design approach that enables monolithic integration of high-quality-factor (Q) radio-frequency (RF) microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) resonators with CMOS electronics. Commercially available CMOS processes that feature two polysilicon layers and field oxide isolation can be used to implement this approach. By using a nonplanar resonator geometry in conjunction with mechanical stress in polycrystalline silicon (poly) gate layers, we create rigid and robust mechanical structures with efficient electromechanical transduction. We demonstrate polysilicon domes with capacitive pickup and arch-bridge resonators with piezoresistive readout. The small footprint of our MEMS structures enables on-chip integration of large arrays of resonators for RF signal processing or sensing applications. Their large surface-to-volume ratio in combination with high rigidity (that alleviates stiction associated with wet chemistry processing) can make these resonators particularly useful for sensors that require surface functionalization.

ID WAVE INTERACTION; MODEL; WATER
AB The six-degrees-of-freedom ship motions of a ship at speeds other than zero are always measured in terms of encounter frequency, and often, the incident waves in experimental data are also measured only in the encounter frequency domain. Using these measured data to obtain transfer functions from irregular following sea ship motions is complicated by the combined effects of very low encounter frequencies and the "folding" of the sea spectra. This results in having both overtaking and encountered waves of the same encounter frequency but different wavelengths. Computing transfer functions becomes untenable when the ship speed approaches the wave phase velocity, where the encounter spectrum has a mathematical singularity. St. Denis and Pierson (1953, "On the Motions of Ships in Confused Seas," Soc. Nay. Archit. Mar Eng., Trans., 61, pp. 280-357) suggested the basic relationships between response ship motions or moments that can be developed in the wave frequency domain at the outset. The St. Denis Pierson method is based on a linear theory and works well when the ship response regime is linear or weakly nonlinear However, for high-speed craft operating at different headings where the problems are nonlinear; especially strongly nonlinear, the St. Denis Pierson assumptions will break down inducing error (1953, "On the Motions of Ships in Confused Seas," Soc. Nay. Archit. Mar Eng., Trans., 61, pp. 280-357). Furthermore, using the frequency resolution method to remove the singularity point may also induce errors, especially when the singularity point is located near the peak of stationary frequency. How to obtain the correct frequency resolution in the local region of singularity point is still an unsolved problem. In this study, we will propose a new method capable of predicting ship response motions for crafts with nonlinear or strongly nonlinear behaviors quantitatively. For example, using this method, one can use measured ship motion data in head seas to predict the motions of the ship at high speed in following seas. The new method has six steps, including using a filter to eliminate those unexpected modes that are not from incident waves, inertial motions, or nonlinear interactions, and applying a higher-order Taylor expansion to eliminate the singularity point. We refer to the new method as the Lin-Hoyt method, which agrees reasonably well with computations of the nonlinear "digital, self-consistent, ship experimental laboratory ship motion model," also known as DiSSEL (2006, "Numerical Modeling of Nonlinear Interactions Between Ships and Surface Gravity Waves II: Ship Boundary Condition," J. Ship Res., 50(2), pp. 181-186). We also use experimental head sea data to validate the simulations of DiSSEL. The Lin-Hoyt method is fast and inexpensive. The differences in the results of the numerical simulations obtained by the Lin-Hoyt method and other linear methods diverge rapidly with increased forward ship speed due to the nonlinearity of ship motion responses.

Mandibular Symphysis Fractures

ID 3-DIMENSIONAL FINITE-ELEMENT; ANGLE FRACTURES; OSTEOSYNTHESIS;
REDUCTION; SYSTEMS
AB Purpose: To design and optimize a bone plate for fractures of the mandibular symphysis that will provide maximum fracture stability with minimal implanted volume and patient intrusion. The design will be driven by the unique biomechanics specific to this fracture location.
Materials and Methods: A finite element model of a fractured human mandible was created using computed tomography scans. The boundary conditions included simulating molar, canine, and incisal loading. The bone plate design process included a shape optimization routine and design parameter analysis using the model. The optimized bone plate design was finally compared with standard bone plate configurations according to stress and strain measures.
Results: Compared with the miniplate combination, the Inter Flex III plate, with the same thickness and just 14% more implanted volume, had only 55% of the plate stress and 25% less fracture strain under the strongest loads considered by the model. Compared with the band/fracture plate combination, the Inter Flex plate had 88% of the fracture strain and 74% of the plate stress, despite having only 60% of the plate volume.
Conclusions: The results have demonstrated that the new optimized plate is a hybrid of fixation hardware with the small profile of the smallest miniplate configuration and the superior fixation strength and safety that exceeds that of the larger fracture plate configuration.

AB Temporary threshold shift (TTS) was measured in a bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) after exposure to 16-s tones at 3 and 20 kHz to examine the effects of exposure frequency on the onset and growth of TTS. Thresholds were measured approximately one-half octave above the exposure frequency using a behavioral response paradigm featuring an adaptive staircase procedure. Preliminary data provide evidence of frequency-specific differences in TTS onset and growth, and increased susceptibility to auditory fatigue after exposure to 3-kHz tones compared to data obtained two years earlier.

TI A Spectral Parameterization of Drag, Eddy Diffusion, and Wave Heating

AB There are three distinct processes by which upward-propagating gravity waves influence the large-scale dynamics and energetics of the middle atmosphere: (i) nonlocalized transport of momentum through wave propagation in three dimensions that remotely redistributes atmospheric momentum in both zonal and meridional directions from wave generation to wave dissipation regions; (ii) localized diffusive transport of momentum, heat, and tracers due to mixing induced by wave breaking; and (iii) localized transport of heat by perturbing wave structures due to dissipation that redistributes the thermal energy within a finite domain. These effects become most significant for breaking waves when momentum drag, eddy diffusion, and wave heating- the "breaking trinity"-are all imposed on the background state. This paper develops a 3D parameterization scheme that self-consistently includes the breaking trinity in large-scale numerical models. The 3D parameterization scheme is developed based on the general relationship between the wave action flux and the subgrid-scale momentum and heat fluxes developed by Zhu in 1987 and a mapping approximation between the wave source spectrum and momentum deposition distribution developed by Alexander and Dunkerton in 1999. For a set of given input wind and temperature profiles at each model grid, the parameterization scheme outputs the vertical profiles of the subgrid-scale force terms together with the eddy diffusion coefficients in the momentum and energy equations for a 3D background flow.

AB Multi-phase ceramics in the TaC-TaB2-C system were prepared from TaC and B4C mixtures by reactive pressureless sintering at 1700-1900 degrees C The pressureless densification was promoted by the use of nano-TaC and by the presence of active carbon in the reaction products. The presence of TaB2 inhibited gram growth of TaC and Increased the hardness compared to pure TaC. If a coarse TaC powder was used, the compositions did not densify In contrast, pure nano-TaC was pressureless sintered at 1800 degrees C by the addition of 2 wt.% carbon introduced as carbon black or graphite The introduction of carbon black resulted in fully dense TaC ceramics at temperatures as low as 1500 degrees C. The grain size of nominally pure TaC ceramics was a strong function of carbon stoichiometry. Enhanced grain size in sub-stoichiometric TaC, compared to stoichiometric TaC, was observed Additional work is necessary to optimize processing parameters and evaluate the properties of ceramics in the TaC-TaB2-C system.

AB The Phycodnaviridae family of viruses is diverse genetically but similar morphologically. These viruses infect eukaryotic algal hosts from both fresh and marine waters, and are an Important component of aqueous environments. They play important roles in the dynamics of algal blooms, nutrient cycling, algal community structure, and possibly gene transfer between organisms As such, it is important to identify new viruses within the Phycodnaviridae family. Biological laser printing (BioLP) was used to Isolate single virus particles from solution. BioLP prints droplets containing a single virus particle directly onto a host medium, thereby enabling viruses to be isolated from unmodified samples This manuscript demonstrates how BioLP can be used as a single-step method to separate and possibly identify viruses from complex environmental specimens Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Predicting when and where key oceanic processes will be encountered is problematic in dynamic coastal waters where diverse physical, chemical, and biological factors interact in varied and rapidly changing combinations. Defining key processes often requires efficient sampling of specific water masses and prompt sample return for subsequent analyses. This compound challenge motivated our efforts to develop mobile autonomous process sampling (MAPS) for use with autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). With this system, features are recognized by artificial intelligence that integrates AUV sensor data to estimate probabilistic states for adaptive control of survey navigation and triggering of targeted water samplers. To demonstrate the utility of the MAPS/AUV system, we focused on intermediate nepheloid layers (INLs), episodic transport events that may play a role in zooplankton ecology. During multiple field tests in Monterey Bay, California, the MAPS/AUV system recognized, mapped, and sampled INLs. Invertebrate larvae contained in the water samples were subsequently characterized with molecular probes developed for high-throughput screening. Preliminary results support the hypothesis that INLs function as vehicles for episodic larval transport. Applying MAPS within a greater coastal ocean observing system permitted description of regional oceanographic dynamics that influenced the patterns and scales of INL and larval transport.

The predictive equations were established from regression models based on historical control groups (n = 39,217). Z scores were calculated for the humanistic measures obtained through a mailed survey.
Data Collection Methods: Administrative records containing medical claims, patient demographics and characteristics, and program participation status were linked using an encrypted patient identifier (n = 57,489). The study time frame is 1 year prior to program inception through 2 years afterward (October 2005-September 2008). A historical control group was identified with the baseline year starting October 2003 and a 1-year follow-up period starting October 2004. A survey was administered to a subset of participants 6 months after baseline assessment (39% response rate).
Results: Within the observation window-24 months for asthma and congestive heart failure, and 15 months for the diabetes program-we observed modest reductions in hospital days and healthcare cost for all 3 programs and reductions in emergency visits for 2 programs. Most clinical outcomes moved in the direction anticipated.
Conclusions: The scorecard provided a useful tool to track performance of 3 regional contractors for each of 3 diseases and over time.

AB "Case-hardening" of the Ni-base superalloy IN718 has been achieved by low-temperature gas-phase carburization. After carburization under optimum conditions, the hardened surface layer (the "case") has about twice the hardness of the core (HV of a parts per thousand 800) and contains a parts per thousand 12 at pct carbon in interstitial solid solution. This causes a lattice parameter expansion of a parts per thousand 1 pct perpendicular to the surface and, because of the mechanical constraint provided by the noncarburized core below, develops a large biaxial surface compressive residual stress (a parts per thousand 1.9 GPa) parallel to the surface. Microstructural studies and X-ray diffractometry reveal no carbide precipitates in the case. In agreement with this observation, low-temperature carburization does not compromise the ductility and actually improves the crevice corrosion resistance of the alloy.

AB The discovery of non-coding RNA (ncRNA) has been mainly limited to laboratory model systems and human pathogenic bacteria. In this study, we begin to explore the ncRNA diversity in four recently sequenced environmental Vibrio species (Vibrio alginolyticus 40B, Wino communis 1DA3, Vibrio mimicus VM573 and Vibrio campbellii BAA-1116) by performing in silico searches using Infernal and Rfam for the identification of putative ncRNA-encoding genes This search method resulted in the identification of 31-38 putative ncRNA genes per species and the total ncRNA catalogue spanned an assortment of regulatory mechanisms (riboswitches, cis-encoded ncRNAs, trans-encoded ncRNAs, modulators of protein activity, ribonucleoproteins, transcription termination ncRNAs and unknown). We chose to experimentally validate the identifications for V campbellii BAA-1116 using a microarray-based expression profiling strategy. Transcript hybridization to tiled probes targeting annotated V. campbellii BAA-1116 intergenic regions revealed that 21 of the 38 predicted ncRNA genes were expressed in mid-exponential-phase cultures grown in nutrient-rich medium. The microarray findings were confirmed by testing a subset of three highly expressed (6S, tmRNA and TPP-2) and three moderately expressed (CsrB, GcvB and purine) ncRNAs via reverse transcription PCR. Our findings provide new information on the diversity of ncRNA in environmental vibrios while simultaneously promoting a more accurate annotation of genomic intergenic regions

ID PSYCHOLOGY; WAR
AB Military mental health providers routinely experience mixed-agency ethical dilemmas when obligations to patients and the military conflict. Particularly difficult mixed-agency dilemmas occur when a military psychiatrist, psychologist, or social worker encounters an apparent conflict between an ethical obligation-enumerated in a professional code of ethics-and a federal statute. This article explores ethical-legal conflicts for uniformed mental health providers. Three case vignettes illustrate situations in which military providers may find themselves stuck between incongruent ethical and legal demands. The authors conclude with several recommendations designed to prevent and resolve ethical-legal conflicts for military mental health providers.

AB Treating perimeters of vegetation with residual insecticides for protection from mosquito vectors has potential for U.S. military force health protection. However, for current U.S. military operations in hot-arid environments with little or no vegetation, residual applications on portable artificial materials may be a viable alternative. We evaluated bifenthrin residual treatments of U.S. military camouflage netting under hot-arid field conditions in a desert area in southern California exposed to abundant wild Culex tarsalis mosquitoes. We assessed the ability of the treatment to reduce the numbers of mosquitoes penetrating perimeters of netting and reaching CO(2)-baited mosquito traps. Treated camouflage netting barriers reduced mosquitoes by >= 50% for 7-14 days and by 20-35% for 21-28 days compared to untreated barriers. Although reductions may be translated into reductions in risk of exposure to mosquito-borne diseases, we emphasize that barrier treatments should be a component in a suite of insect control measures to be effective.

AB Objective: To describe and evaluate a novel technique of nerve-sparing radical abdominal hysterectomy with pelvic lymphadenectomy (NSRH/PLND) using the bipolar Ligasure Atlas sealer/divider and Bissenger bipolar shears. Methods: Retrospective study of 4 consecutive patients who underwent NSRH/PLND for stage IB1-IIB cervical carcinoma was conducted. Resection of the cardinal and uterosacral ligaments was performed with the Ligasure Atlas. Pelvic autonomic nerve dissection and lymphadenectomy were completed with the bipolar shears. Outcomes were collectively analyzed. Results: Mean operative time was 251 minutes (range, 230-265). Blood loss averaged 625 mL (range, 400-900). Average LOS was 5 days (range, 4-5). Average duration until normal postvoid residual volume was 17 days (range, 10-24). No perioperative complications were encountered. Conclusion: Bipolar surgical instrumentation offers many advantages. The Ligasure Atlas provides efficient sealing and division of vascular pedicles, while the bipolar shears allow precise and fine dissection. Our results demonstrate the "bipolar sealer and shears technique" a preferable method of NSRH/PLND.

AB A paraneoplastic syndrome associated with anti-N-methyl-D-asparate (NMDA) receptors can initially present as a neurologic or psychiatric disturbance. Removal of the tumor is usually curative, and the syndrome is associated with the presence, rather than the history, of tumor. We present a case in which a 25-year-old, Hispanic woman presented with seizures, memory loss, and unusual behavioral changes. The woman had a teratoma removed 2 months earlier. Because of the time course, a paraneoplastic syndrome was initially considered unlikely. Brain imaging, electroencephalography (EEG) and neurologic work-up were negative. The patient was treated for a suspected somatoform disorder and psychosis. Based on the clinical picture, the working diagnosis was changed to delirium due to paraneoplastic limbic encephalitis. A course of intravenous immunoglobins (IVIg), and high dose steroids was administered. The patient's symptoms improved, and she was discharged home. After discharge, studies came back positive for antibodies against NR1/NR2 of the NMDA receptor.

AB The characteristics and dynamics of the Chilean low-level coastal jet (CLLCJ) are examined here through diagnosing real-time mesoscale model forecasts in support of the Variability of the American Monsoon System (VAMOS) Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere Land Study (VOCALS) and additional sensitivity simulations. The forecasted surface winds over the southeast Pacific compare favorably with available observations. According to the forecasts and sensitivity simulations, the Southeast Pacific high pressure system(SEPH) plays a primary role in driving the CLLCJ. The Andes significantly intensify the CLLCJ mainly through interacting with the SEPH and anchoring a baroclinic zone along the Chilean coast. The land-sea differential heating also enhances the CLLCJ by strengthening the coastal baroclinic zone. Based on the location of the SEPH center, the CLLCJ can be separated into two types: a strong-forcing jet, with the SEPH close to the central Chilean coastline; and a weak-forcing jet, with the SEPH centered far away from the coastline. The former is much more intense and associated with stronger interaction between the SEPH and the Andes.
The CLLCJ is slightly supergeostrophic within the marine boundary layer top inversion, where weak easterlies develop, and subgeostrophic in the turbulent boundary layer below, where westerlies are present. The inversion easterlies induce strong subsidence along the coast, which contributes to the formation of the coastal low and the coastal baroclinic zone.

AB A tropical cyclone (TC) size parameter, which is defined here as the radius of 15 m s(-1) near-surface wind speed (R15), is calculated for 145 TCs in the western North Pacific during 2000-05 based on QuikSCAT oceanic winds. For the 73 TCs that intensified to typhoon intensity during their lifetimes, the 33% and 67% respective percentiles of R15 at tropical storm intensity and at typhoon intensity are used to categorize small, medium, and large TCs. Whereas many of the small TCs form from an easterly wave synoptic pattern, the monsoon-related formation patterns are favorable for forming medium to large TCs. Most of these 73 TCs stay in the same size category during intensification, which implies specific physical mechanisms for maintaining TC size in the basin. The 18 persistently large TCs from the tropical storm to the typhoon stage mostly have northwestward or north-northwestward tracks, while the 16 persistently small TCs either move westward-northwestward in lower latitudes or develop at higher latitudes with various track types. For the large TCs, strong low-level southwesterly winds exist in the outer core region south of the TC center throughout the intensification period. The small TCs are more influenced by the subtropical high during intensification. The conclusion is that it is the low-level environment that determines the difference between large and small size storms during the early intensification period in the western North Pacific.

AB Composite analysis is used to examine environmental and climatology and persistence characteristics of tropical cyclones (TCs) undergoing different intensity changes in the western North Pacific (WPAC) and North Atlantic (ATL) ocean basins. Using the cumulative distribution functions of 24-h intensity changes from the 2003-08 best-track data, four intensity change bins are defined: rapidly intensifying (RI), intensifying, neutral, and weakening. The Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System daily 0000 and 1200 UTC global analysis and Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Microwave Imager data are then used as proxies for the real atmosphere, and composites of various environmental fields believed relevant to TC intensity change are made in the vicinity of the TCs. These composites give the average characteristics near the TC, prior to undergoing a given intensity change episode.
For the environmental variables, statistically significant differences are examined between RI storms and the other groups. While some environmental differences were found between RI and weakening/neutral TCs in both basins, an interesting result from this study is that the environment of RI TCs and intensifying TCs is quite similar. This indicates that the rate of intensification is only weakly dependent on the environmental conditions, on average, provided the environment is favorable. Notable exceptions were that in the WPAC, RI events occurred in environments with significantly larger conditional instability than intensifying events. In the ATL, RI events occurred in environments with weaker deep-layer shear than intensifying events. An important finding of this work is that SSTs are similar between intensifying and rapidly intensifying TCs, indicating that the rate of intensification is not critically dependent on SST.
The TCs in both basins were more intense prior to undergoing an RI episode than an intensifying or neutral episode. In the WPAC, the three groups had similar translational speeds and headings, and average initial position. In the ATL, RI storms were located farther south than intensifying and neutral storms, and had a larger translational speed and a more westward component to the heading.

TI A Vortex Relocation Scheme for Tropical Cyclone Initialization in
Advanced Research WRF
SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW
LA English
DT Article

AB This paper introduces a relocation scheme for tropical cyclone (TC) initialization in the Advanced Research Weather Research and Forecasting (ARW-WRF) model and demonstrates its application to 70 forecasts of Typhoons Sinlaku (2008), Jangmi (2008), and Linfa (2009) for which Taiwan's Central Weather Bureau (CWB) issued typhoon warnings. An efficient and dynamically consistent TC vortex relocation scheme for the WRF terrain-following mass coordinate has been developed to improve the first guess of the TC analysis, and hence improves the tropical cyclone initialization. The vortex relocation scheme separates the first-guess atmospheric flow into a TC circulation and environmental flow, relocates the TC circulation to its observed location, and adds the relocated TC circulation back to the environmental flow to obtain the updated first guess with a correct TC position. Analysis of these typhoon cases indicates that the relocation procedure moves the typhoon circulation to the observed typhoon position without generating discontinuities or sharp gradients in the first guess.
Numerical experiments with and without the vortex relocation procedure for Typhoons Sinlaku, Jangmi, and Linfa forecasts show that about 67% of the first-guess fields need a vortex relocation to correct typhoon position errors while eliminates the topographical effect. As the vortex relocation effectively removes the typhoon position errors in the analysis, the simulated typhoon tracks are considerably improved for all forecast times, especially in the early periods as large adjustments appeared without the vortex relocation. Comparison of the horizontal and vertical vortex structures shows that large errors in the first-guess fields due to an incorrect typhoon position are eliminated by the vortex relocation scheme and that the analyzed typhoon circulation is stronger and more symmetric without distortions, and better agrees with observations. The result suggests that the main difficulty of objective analysis methods [e. g., three-dimensional variational data assimilation (3DVAR)], in TC analysis comes from poor first-guess fields with incorrect TC positions rather than not enough model resolution or observations. In addition, by computing the eccentricity and correlation of the axes of the initial typhoon circulation, the distorted typhoon circulation caused by the position error without the vortex relocation scheme is demonstrated to be responsible for larger track errors. Therefore, by eliminating the typhoon position error in the first guess that avoids a distorted initial typhoon circulation, the vortex relocation scheme is able to improve the ARW-WRF typhoon initialization and forecasts particularly when using data assimilation update cycling.

AB Graphene films grown on Cu foils have been fluorinated with xenon difluoride (XeF(2)) gas on one or both sides. When exposed on one side the F coverage saturates at 25% (C(4)F), which is optically transparent, over 6 orders of magnitude more resistive than graphene, and readily patterned. Density functional calculations for varying coverages indicate that a C(4)F configuration is lowest in energy and that the calculated band gap increases with increasing coverage, becoming 2.93 eV for one C(4)F configuration. During defluorination, we find hydrazine treatment effectively removes fluorine while retaining graphene's carbon skeleton. The same films may be fluorinated on both sides by transferring graphene to a silicon-on-insulator substrate enabling XeF(2) gas to etch the Si underlayer and fluorinate the backside of the graphene film to form perfluorographane (CF) for which calculated the band gap is 3.07 eV. Our results indicate single-side fluorination provides the necessary electronic and optical changes to be practical for graphene device applications.

AB It has been a long-standing goal to create magnetism in a non-magnetic material by manipulating its structure at the nanoscale. Many structural defects have unpaired spins; an ordered arrangement of these can create a magnetically ordered state. In this article we predict theoretically that stepped silicon surfaces stabilized by adsorbed gold achieve this state by self-assembly, creating chains of polarized electron spins with atomically precise structural order. The spins are localized at silicon step edges having the form of graphitic ribbons. The predicted magnetic state is supported by recent experimental observations, such as the coexistence of double-and triple-period distortions and the absence of edge states in photoemission. Ordered arrays of surface spins can be accessed by probes with single-spin sensitivity, such as spin-polarized scanning tunnelling microscopy. The integration of structural and magnetic order is crucial for technologies involving spin-based computation and storage at the atomic level.

TI Patterns of Indian Ocean sea-level change in a warming climate
SO NATURE GEOSCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
ID RISE; SURFACE; TRENDS
AB Global sea level has risen during the past decades as a result of thermal expansion of the warming ocean and freshwater addition from melting continental ice(1). However, sea-level rise is not globally uniform(1-5). Regional sea levels can be affected by changes in atmospheric or oceanic circulation. As long-term observational records are scarce, regional changes in sea level in the Indian Ocean are poorly constrained. Yet estimates of future sea-level changes are essential for effective risk assessment(2). Here we combine in situ and satellite observations of Indian Ocean sea level with climate-model simulations, to identify a distinct spatial pattern of sea-level rise since the 1960s. We find that sea level has decreased substantially in the south tropical Indian Ocean whereas it has increased elsewhere. This pattern is driven by changing surface winds associated with a combined invigoration of the Indian Ocean Hadley and Walker cells, patterns of atmospheric overturning circulation in the north-south and east-west direction, respectively, which is partly attributable to rising levels of atmospheric greenhouse gases. We conclude that-if ongoing anthropogenic warming dominates natural variability-the pattern we detected is likely to persist and to increase the environmental stress on some coasts and islands in the Indian Ocean.

AB The use of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) for bioimaging and sensing has progressively matured over the past decade. QDs are highly sensitive to charge-transfer processes, which can alter their optical properties. Here, we demonstrate that QD-dopamine-peptide bioconjugates can function as charge-transfer coupled pH sensors. Dopamine is normally characterized by two intrinsic redox properties: a Nernstian dependence of formal potential on pH and oxidation of hydroquinone to quinone by O(2) at basic pH. We show that the latter quinone can function as an electron acceptor quenching QD photoluminescence in a manner that depends directly on pH. We characterize the pH-dependent QD quenching using both electrochemistry and spectroscopy. QD-dopamine conjugates were also used as pH sensors that measured changes in cytoplasmic pH as cells underwent drug-induced alkalosis. A detailed mechanism describing the QD quenching processes that is consistent with dopamine's inherent redox chemistry is presented.

AB We formulate and solve a discrete-time path-optimization problem where a single searcher, operating in a discretized three-dimensional airspace, looks for a moving target in a finite set of cells. The searcher is constrained by maximum limits on the consumption of one or more resources such as time, fuel, and risk along any path. We develop a specialized branch-and-bound algorithm for this problem that uses several network reduction procedures as well as a new bounding technique based on Lagrangian relaxation and network expansion. The resulting algorithm outperforms a state-of-the-art algorithm for solving time-constrained problems and also is the first algorithm to solve multi-constrained problems.

AB Despite the continuing importance of ground-based parallax measurements, few active programs remain. Because new members of the solar neighborhood tend towards later spectral types, infrared parallax programs are particularly desirable. Therefore, the astrometric quality of the new infrared camera, FanCam, developed by the Virginia Astronomical Instrumentation Laboratory (VAIL) for the 31-in. (0.8 m) Tinsley reflector at Fan Mountain Observatory was assessed using 68 J-band exposures of an open cluster, NGC 2420, over a range of hour angles during 2005. Positions of 16 astrometric evaluation stars were measured and the repeatability of those positions was evaluated using the mean error in a single observation of unit weight. Overall, a precision of 1.3 +/- 0.7 mu m in x (RA) and 1.3 +/- 0.8 mu m in y (Dec) was attained, which corresponds to 0.04" +/- 0.02" in each axis. Although greater precision is expected from CCDs in the visual and near-infrared, this instrument can achieve precision similar to that of the ESO NTT infrared parallax program. Therefore, measuring parallaxes in the infrared would be feasible using this equipment. If initiated, such a program could provide essential distances for brown dwarfs and very low mass stars that would contribute significantly to the solar neighborhood census.

AB A simple numerical method to determine an optimum beam configuration for highly uniform irradiation is proposed for direct-drive laser fusion systems and is applied to an arbitrary number of laser beams, NB. Driven by the Coulomb repulsion force, NB randomly distributed like charges move on a spherical surface to settle with a stable configuration having the minimum Coulomb energy for the system. Such resultant charge configurations practically do not depend on the initial conditions, and thus the solutions are very robust and unique. The irradiation uniformity is numerically assessed by overlapping NB beam patterns and calculating the laser absorption based on various spatial absorption patterns for the individual beams. The present method provides some improved illumination configurations for laser fusion compared with previously proposed designs. In particular, new coordinates for N(B)=48 and 72 are found to give an extraordinarily higher uniformity than for other numbers of NB. The influence of system imperfection on the irradiation uniformity is also discussed. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3467497]

The resulting micro- and nanofibers have been characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), which confirmed fiber formation and demonstrated a core-sheath structure of the PMMA fibers. thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was used to obtain the thermal properties of the materials, indicating an enhancement in the thermal properties of the composite fibers. In addition, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) was utilized to investigate the interactions of PMMA micro- and nanofibers with CNFs, demonstrating the preferred sites of intermolecular interactions between the polymer matrix and the filler.

AB Military psychologists must provide a full gamut of mental health evaluation, treatment, and consultative services in a variety of nontraditional settings. Internship training and postdoctoral supervision are key to producing competent military psychologists that can simultaneously serve effectively as commissioned officers. The context of supervision has evolved in recent years as the majority of military psychologists are deployed to the combat theater and many are tasked with nontraditional operational roles. This article explores the key ethical considerations faced by supervisors who prepare psychology interns, postdoctoral residents, or civilian psychologists for high-risk military roles in a time of war. Recommendations are provided for both clinical supervisors and military psychology leaders.

SO RADIATION PROTECTION DOSIMETRY
LA English
DT Article
ID RADIATION QUALITY
AB The gold standard in microdosemeters has been the tissue equivalent proportional counter (TEPC) that utilises a gas cavity. An alternative is the solid-state microdosemeter that replaces the gas with a condensed phase (silicon) detector with microscopic sensitive volumes. Calibrations of gas and solid-state microdosemeters are generally carried out using radiation sources built into the detector that impose restrictions on their handling, transportation and licensing in accordance with the regulations from international, national and local nuclear regulatory bodies. Here a novel method is presented for carrying out a calibration and end-to-end system test of a microdosemeter using low-energy photons as the initiating energy source, thus obviating the need for a regulated ionising radiation source. This technique may be utilised to calibrate both a solid-state microdosemeter and, with modification, a TEPC with the higher average ionisation energy of a gas.

AB We previously showed the feasibility of using locked nucleic acid (LNA) for flow cytometric-fluorescence in situ hybridization (LNA flow-FISH) detection of a target cellular mRNA. Here we demonstrate how the method can be used to monitor viral RNA in infected cells. We compared the results of the LNA flow-FISH with other methods of quantifying virus replication, including the use of an enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) viral construct and quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction. We found that an LNA probe complementary to Sindbis virus RNA is able to track the increase in viral RNA over time in early infection. In addition, this method is comparable to the EGFP construct in sensitivity, with both peaking around 3 h and at the same level of infected cells. Finally, we observed that the LNA flow-FISH method responds to the decrease in levels of viral RNA caused by antiviral medication. This technique represents a straightforward way to monitor viral infection in cells and is easily applicable to any virus.

AB The present study measures levels of stigma within health care settings in urban and rural Gujarat, in an attempt to understand how this may have contributed to the state's increasing HIV incidence. Two sites were studied: a rural hospital in Bardoli and an urban hospital in Surat. HIV-associated stigma among healthcare workers (N = 170) was assessed using a Stigma Index. Overall, analyses suggest an increase in medical education was found to be associated with higher stigmatisation (p < 0.001). Furthermore, a statistically significant difference between stigma scores of HCWs in rural and urban Gujarat was not observed.

Power can be defined as the product of a force and velocity, which can be trained and increased through resisted and plyometric movements. Complex training can be used in force development and yields an increase in power. The published literature on complex training does not necessarily reflect the practices of complex training in the weight room. This article's purpose is to compare the suggestions from the literature and strength and conditioning coaches in a practical setting.

AB A new algorithm to generate wave heights consistent with tropical cyclone official forecasts from the Joint Typhoon Warning Center (JTWC) has been developed. The process involves generating synthetic observations from the forecast track and the 34-, 50-, and 64-kt wind radii. The JTWC estimate of the radius of maximum winds is used in the algorithm to generate observations for the forecast intensity (wind), and the JTWC-estimated radius of the outermost closed isobar is used to assign observations at the outermost extent of the tropical cyclone circulation. These observations are then interpolated to a high-resolution latitude-longitude grid covering the entire extent of the circulation. Finally, numerical weather prediction (NWP) model fields are obtained for each forecast time, the NWP model forecast tropical cyclone is removed from these fields, and the new JTWC vortex is inserted without blending zones between the vortex and the background. These modified fields are then used as input into a wave model to generate waves consistent with the JTWC forecasts. The algorithm is applied to Typhoon Yagi (2006), in anticipation of which U. S. Navy ships were moved from Tokyo Bay to an area off the southeastern coast of Kyushu. The decision to move (sortie) the ships was based on NWP model-driven long-range wave forecasts that indicated high seas impacting the coast in the vicinity of Tokyo Bay. The sortie decision was made approximately 84 h in advance of the high seas in order to give ships time to steam the approximately 500 n mi to safety. Results from the new algorithm indicate that the high seas would not affect the coast near Tokyo Bay within 84 h. This specific forecast verifies, but altimeter observations show that it does not outperform, the NWP model-driven wave analysis and forecasts for this particular case. Overall, the performance of the new algorithm is dependent on the JTWC tropical cyclone forecast performance, which has generally outperformed those of the NWP model over the last several years.

AB We extend the explicit in time high-order triangular discontinuous Galerkin (DG) method to semi-implicit (SI) and then apply the algorithm to the two-dimensional oceanic shallow water equations; we implement high-order SI time-integrators using the backward difference formulas from orders one to six. The reason for changing the time-integration method from explicit to SI is that explicit methods require a very small time step in order to maintain stability, especially for high-order DG methods. Changing the time-integration method to SI allows one to circumvent the stability criterion due to the gravity waves, which for most shallow water applications are the fastest waves in the system (the exception being supercritical flow where the Froude number is greater than one). The challenge of constructing a SI method for a DG model is that the DG machinery requires not only the standard finite element-type area integrals, but also the finite volume-type boundary integrals as well. These boundary integrals pose the biggest challenge in a SI discretization because they require the construction of a Riemann solver that is the true linear representation of the nonlinear Riemann problem; if this condition is not satisfied then the resulting numerical method will not be consistent with the continuous equations. In this paper we couple the SI time-integrators with the DG method while maintaining most of the usual attributes associated with DG methods such as: high-order accuracy (in both space and time), parallel efficiency, excellent stability, and conservation. The only property lost is that of a compact communication stencil typical of time-explicit DG methods; implicit methods will always require a much larger communication stencil. We apply the new high-order SI DG method to the shallow water equations and show results for many standard test cases of oceanic interest such as: standing, Kelvin and Rossby soliton waves, and the Stommel problem. The results show that the new high-order SI DG model, that has already been shown to yield exponentially convergent solutions in space for smooth problems, results in a more efficient model than its explicit counterpart. Furthermore, for those problems where the spatial resolution is sufficiently high compared with the length scales of the flow, the capacity to use high-order (HO) time-integrators is a necessary complement to the employment of HO space discretizations, since the total numerical error would be otherwise dominated by the time discretization error. In fact, in the limit of increasing spatial resolution, it makes little sense to use HO spatial discretizations coupled with low-order time discretizations.

TI First results on terrestrial gamma ray flashes from the Fermi Gamma-ray
Burst Monitor
SO JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH-SPACE PHYSICS

ID BREAKDOWN; SPACE; SPRITES; AIR
AB The Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope detected 12 intense terrestrial gamma ray flashes (TGFs) during its first year of observation. Typical maximum energies for most of the TGFs are similar to 30 MeV, with one TGF having a 38 MeV photon; two of the TGFs are softer and longer than the others. After correcting for instrumental effects, a representative bright TGF is found to have a fluence of similar to 0.7 photons cm (2). Pulses are either symmetrical or have faster risetimes than fall times; they are well fit with Gaussian or lognormal functions. The fastest risetime observed was 7 mu s, constraining the source radius to be less than about 2 km from the velocity of light. TGFs with multiple pulses separated in time have been known since their discovery; the GBM sample also includes clear cases of partially overlapping pulses. Four TGFs are associated with lightning locations from the World Wide Lightning Location Network. With the several mu s absolute time accuracy of GBM, the time order can be confidently identified: one TGF occurred before the lightning, two were simultaneous, and one TGF occurred after the lightning.

TI Effect of doping and pressure on magnetism and lattice structure of
iron-based superconductors
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID WAVE
AB Using first-principles calculations, we analyze structural and magnetic trends as a function of charge doping and pressure in BaFe(2)As(2), and compare to experimentally established facts. We find that density-functional theory, while accurately reproducing the structural and magnetic ordering at ambient pressure, fails to reproduce some structural trends as pressure is increased. Most notably, the Fe-As bond length which is a gauge of the magnitude of the magnetic moment, mu, is rigid in experiment but soft in calculation, indicating residual local Coulomb interactions. By calculating the magnitude of the magnetic ordering energy, we show that the disruption of magnetic order as a function of pressure or doping can be qualitatively reproduced but that in calculation, it is achieved through diminishment of vertical bar mu vertical bar, and therefore likely does not reflect the same physics as detected in experiment. We also find that the strength of the stripe order as a function of doping is strongly site dependent: magnetism decreases monotonically with the number of electrons doped at the Fe site but increases monotonically with the number of electrons doped at the Ba site. Intraplanar magnetic ordering energy (the difference between checkerboard and stripe orderings) and interplanar coupling both follow a similar trend.

AB Research into the biological processes that increase susceptibility to methamphetamine dependence has been conducted primarily in Asian populations. Using a case control design this study's purpose was to explore, among a population of methamphetamine-dependent Caucasians, six putative single nucleotide polymorphisms previously found to be associated with methamphetamine dependence in Asian populations. A total of 193 non-psychotic males (117 methamphetamine-dependent and 76 controls) were genotyped for variants located in six genes (AKT1, ARRB2, BDNF, COMT, GSTP1, OPRM1). Genotypic and allelic frequencies, odds ratios, and 95% confidence intervals were calculated. None of the putative gene associations was significantly replicated in our sample of Caucasian men. Effect size comparisons suggest a trend toward allelic divergence for arrestin beta 2 (ARRB2) and glutathione S-transferase P1 (GSTP1) and allelic convergence for brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). Results provide preliminary support for further exploration and validation of candidate single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) for methamphetamine (METH) dependence reported among Asian populations across other ethnic/ancestral groups.

AB We report on a measurement of the gamma(1S + 2S + 3S) -> e(+)e(-) cross section at midrapidity in p + p collisions at root s = 200 GeV. We find the cross section to be 114 +/- 38(stat + fit)(-24)(+23)(syst) pb. Perturbative QCD calculations at next-to-leading order in the color evaporation model are in agreement with our measurement, while calculations in the color singlet model underestimate it by 2 sigma. Our result is consistent with the trend seen in world data as a function of the center-of-mass energy of the collision and extends the availability of gamma data to RHIC energies. The dielectron continuum in the invariant-mass range near the gamma is also studied to obtain a combined yield of e(+)e(-) pairs from the sum of the Drell-Yan process and b-(b) over bar production.

AB Water solubilized nanoparticles such as CdSe-ZnS core-shell nanocrystals (quantum dots, QDs) have great potential in bioimaging and sensing applications due to their excellent photophysical properties. However, the efficient modification of QDs with complex biomolecules represents a significant challenge. Here, we describe a straightforward arylhydrazone approach for the chemoselective covalent modification of QDs that is compatible with neutral pH and micromolar concentrations of the peptide target. The kinetics of covalent modification can be monitored spectroscopically at 354 nm in the presence of the QD and average peptide/QD ratios from 2:1 to 11:1 were achieved with excellent control over the desired valency. These results suggest that aniline catalyzed hydrazone ligation has the potencial to provide a general method for the controlled assembly of a variety of nanoparticle-biomolecule hybrids.

AB We present a density-functional theory investigation of strained Ca0.5Sr0.5TiO3 (CSTO). We have determined the structure and polarization for a number of arrangements of Ca and Sr in a 2 x 2 x 2 supercell. The a and b lattice vectors are strained to match the lattice constants of the rotated Si(001) face. To set the context for the CSTO study, we also include simulations of the Si(001) constrained structures for CaTiO3 and SrTiO3. Our primary findings are that all Ca0.5Sr0.5TiO3 structures examined except one are ferroelectric, exhibiting polarizations ranging from 0.08 C/m(2) for the lowest energy configuration to about 0.26 C/m(2) for the higher energy configurations. We find that the configurations with larger polarizations have lower c/a ratios. The net polarization of the cell is the result of Ti-O ferroelectric displacements regulated by A-site cations.

AB Background: Posttraumatic stress disorder ( PTSD) has been associated with combat intensity, lack of social support, and adverse childhood factors among military personnel in previous studies. It has not been well established if adverse childhood experiences reported predeployment are independently associated with postdeployment PTSD.
Methods: Data were evaluated from 8,391 male responders of the Recruit Assessment Program survey at Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego who were deployed in support of military conflicts between September 2001 and June 2004. Using patient medical records to determine PTSD diagnoses, Cox proportional hazard modeling was performed to examine if adverse childhood experiences were independently associated with postdeployment PTSD.
Results: After adjustment, those who reported adverse childhood experiences in more than one category were significantly more likely to be diagnosed with postdeployment PTSD. Specifically, childhood physical neglect was mostly strongly associated with postdeployment PTSD.
Conclusions: Findings suggest that Marines who experience multiple types of adverse childhood experiences may be at increased risk for postdeployment PTSD. It is possible, however, that these results indicate that men willing to report childhood adverse experiences are also more willing to seek care for PTSD.

TI Resonances and excitation pathways in four-level N-scheme atomic systems
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW A

DT Article
ID ELECTROMAGNETICALLY INDUCED TRANSPARENCY
AB In this work, we theoretically study the absorption and dispersion coefficients of a probe field in four-level N-scheme atomic systems driven by two additional fields. We separate the steady-state solution of the appropriate density matrix element into the sum of three resonances. The effect of each resonance on the overall absorption and dispersion experienced by the probe is studied as a function of the strengths of the two other fields. In the limit of low saturation, we reveal the physics of these resonances and associate them with atomic excitation pathways, which we explicitly explain in the bare-states picture.

AB Electron transmission parameters of oligo(phenylene vinylene) quinone (OPVQ) placed between two gold electrodes were calculated ab initio using density functional theory (DFT) with the nonequilibrium Green's function method. Compared to oligo(phenylene vinylene) (OPV)(3), the introduction of oxygen atoms into the phenyl ring for OPVQ leads to the appearance of a narrow transmission band at close proximity to the electrode Fermi levels. This band allows OPVQ to operate as an efficient n-type conductor with a single molecular electron transfer efficiency approaching I G(0) (quantum conductance). The close location to the Fermi level and the narrow shape of the band lead to high and stable molecular conductivity even at a very low bias. The presence of an efficient transmission hand close to the electrode Fermi level explains experimentally observed high molecular conductance of OPVQ, which will allow this molecule to be used in low band gap molecular electronic devices.

AB As an initial step toward the synthesis and characterization of sila-diamondoids, such as sila-adamantane (Si10H16,T-d), the synthesis of a fourfold silylated sila-adamantane molecule (C24H72Si14,T-d) has been reported in literature [Fischer et al., Science 310, 825 (2005)]. We present the electronic structure, ionization energies, quasiparticle gap, and the excitation energies for the Si-14(CH3)(24) and the exact silicon analog of adamantane Si10H16 obtained at the all-electron level using the delta-self-consistent-field and transitional state methods within two different density functional models: (i) Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof generalized gradient approximation and (ii) fully analytic density functional (ADFT) implementation with atom dependent potential. The ADFT is designed so that molecules separate into atoms having exact atomic energies. The calculations within the two models agree well, to within 0.25 eV for optical excitations. The effect of structural relaxation in the presence of electron-hole-pair excitations is examined to obtain its contribution to the luminescence Stokes shift. The spin-influence on exciton energies is also determined. Our calculations indicate overall decrease in the absorption, emission, quasiparticle, and highest occupied molecular orbital-lowest unoccupied molecular orbital gaps, ionization energies. Stokes shift, and exciton binding energy when passivating hydrogens in the Si10H16 are replaced with electron donating groups such as methyl (Me) and trimehylsilyl (-Si(Me)(3)).

AB We present a comprehensive analysis of the evolution of the classic, slow streamer blowout CME of 1 June 2008 observed by the STEREO twin spacecraft to infer relevant properties of the pre-eruption source region which includes a substantial portion of the coronal helmet streamer belt. The CME was directed similar to 40 degrees East of the Sun-Earth line and the Heliospheric Imager observations are consistent with the CME propagating essentially radially to 1 AU. The elongation-time J-map constructed from the STEREO-A HI images tracks the arrival of two density peaks that bound the magnetic flux rope ICME seen at STEREO-B on 6 June 2008. From the STEREO-A elongation-time plots we measure the ICME flux rope radial size R-c(t) and find it well approximated by the constant expansion value V-exp = 24.5 km/s obtained from the STEREO-B declining velocity profile within the magnetic cloud. The flux rope spatial orientation, determined by forward modeling fits to the STEREO COR2 and HI1 data, approaches the observed 1 AU flux rope orientation and suggests large-scale rotation during propagation, as predicted by recent numerical simulations. We compare the ICME flux content to the PFSS model coronal field for Carrington Rotation 2070 and find sufficient streamer belt flux to account for the observed ICME poloidal/twist flux if reconnection during CME initiation process is responsible for the conversion of overlying field into the flux rope twist component in the standard fashion. However, the PFSS model field cannot account for the ICME toroidal/axial flux component. We estimate the field strength of the pre-eruption sheared/axial component in the low corona and the timescales required to accumulate this energized pre-eruption configuration via differential rotation and flux cancelation by supergranular diffusion at the polarity inversion line. We show that both mechanisms are capable of generating the desired shear component over time periods of roughly 1-2 months. We discuss the implications for slow streamer-blowout CMEs arising as a natural consequence of the corona's re-adjustment to the long term evolutionary driving of the photospheric fields.

AB We present the design and synthesis of a new set of poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-based ligands appended with multidentate anchoring groups and test their ability to provide colloidal stability to semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) in extreme buffer conditions. The ligands are made of a PEG segment appended with two thioctic acid (TA) or two dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) anchoring groups, bis(TA)-PEG-OCH(3) or bis(DHLA)-PEG-OCH(3). The synthesis utilizes Michael addition to create a branch point at the end of a PEG chain combined with carbodiimide-coupling to attach two TA groups per PEG chain. Dispersions of CdSe-ZnS core-shell QDs and AuNPs with remarkable long-term colloidal stability at pHs ranging from 1.1 to 13.9 and in the presence of 2 M NaCl have been prepared and tested using these ligands. AuNPs with strong resistance to competition from dithiothreitol (as high as 1.5 M) have also been prepared. This opens up possibilities for using them as stable probes in a variety of bio-related studies where resistance to degradation at extreme pHs, at high electrolyte concentration, and in thiol-rich environments is highly desirable. The improved colloidal stability of nanocrystals afforded by the tetradentate ligands was further demonstrated via the assembly of stable QD-nuclear localization signal peptide bioconjugates that promoted intracellular uptake.

AB We have studied the relationship between the nuclear (high-resolution) radio emission, at 8.4 GHz (3.6 cm) and 1.4 GHz (20 cm), the [O iv] lambda 25.89 mu m, [Ne iii] lambda 15.56 mu m and [Ne ii] lambda 12.81 mu m emission lines and the black hole mass accretion rate for a sample of Seyfert galaxies. In order to characterize the radio contribution for the Seyfert nuclei we used the 8.4 GHz/[O iv] ratio, assuming that [O iv] scales with the luminosity of the active galactic nuclei (AGN). From this we find that Seyfert 1s (i.e. Seyfert 1.0s, 1.2s and 1.5s) and Seyfert 2s (i.e. Seyfert 1.8s, 1.9s and 2.0s) have similar radio contributions, relative to the AGN. On the other hand, sources in which the [Ne ii] emission is dominated either by the AGN or star formation have statistically different radio contributions, with star formation dominated sources more 'radio loud', by a factor of similar to 2.8 on average, than AGN dominated sources. We show that star formation dominated sources with relatively larger radio contribution have smaller mass accretion rates. Overall, we suggest that 8.4 GHz/[O iv], or alternatively, 1.4 GHz/[O iv] ratios, can be used to characterize the radio contribution, relative to the AGN, without the limitation of previous methods that rely on optical observables.

The circumference of the cylinder is similarly coated to increase the fraction of the emitted light that is collected and sent into the slit of a spectrometer.

AB Current-sheet formation and magnetic reconnection are believed to be the basic physical processes responsible for much of the activity observed in astrophysical plasmas, such as the Sun's corona. We investigate these processes for a magnetic configuration consisting of a uniform background field and an embedded line dipole, a topology that is expected to be ubiquitous in the corona. This magnetic system is driven by a uniform horizontal flow applied at the line-tied photosphere. Although both the initial field and the driver are translationally symmetric, the resulting evolution is calculated using a fully three-dimensional (3D) magnetohydrodynamic simulation with adaptive mesh refinement that resolves the current sheet and reconnection dynamics in detail. The advantage of our approach is that it allows us to directly apply the vast body of knowledge gained from the many studies of two-dimensional (2D) reconnection to the fully 3D case. We find that a current sheet forms in close analogy to the classic Syrovatskii 2D mechanism, but the resulting evolution is different than expected. The current sheet is globally stable, showing no evidence for a disruption or a secondary instability even for aspect ratios as high as 80:1. The global evolution generally follows the standard Sweet-Parker 2D reconnection model except for an accelerated reconnection rate at a very thin current sheet, due to the tearing instability and the formation of magnetic islands. An interesting conclusion is that despite the formation of fully 3D structures at small scales, the system remains close to 2D at global scales. We discuss the implications of our results for observations of the solar corona.

AB We present detailed analysis of two gamma-ray sources, 1FGL J1801.3-2322c and 1FGL J1800.5-2359c, that have been found toward the supernova remnant (SNR) W28 with the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. 1FGL J1801.3-2322c is found to be an extended source within the boundary of SNR W28, and to extensively overlap with the TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1801-233, which is associated with a dense molecular cloud interacting with the SNR. The gamma-ray spectrum measured with the LAT from 0.2 to 100 GeV can be described by a broken power-law function with a break at similar to 1 GeV and photon indices of 2.09 +/- 0.08 (stat) +/- 0.28 (sys) below the break and 2.74 +/- 0.06 (stat) +/- 0.09 (sys) above the break. Given the clear association between HESS J1801-233 and the shocked molecular cloud and a smoothly connected spectrum in the GeV-TeV band, we consider the origin of the gamma-ray emission in both GeV and TeV ranges to be the interaction between particles accelerated in the SNR and the molecular cloud. The decay of neutral pions produced in interactions between accelerated hadrons and dense molecular gas provides a reasonable explanation for the broadband gamma-ray spectrum. 1FGL J1800.5-2359c, located outside the southern boundary of SNR W28, cannot be resolved. An upper limit on the size of the gamma-ray emission was estimated to be similar to 16' using events above similar to 2 GeV under the assumption of a circular shape with uniform surface brightness. It appears to coincide with the TeV source HESS J1800-240B, which is considered to be associated with a dense molecular cloud that contains the ultra compact H II region W28A2 (G5.89-0.39). We found no significant gamma-ray emission in the LAT energy band at the positions of TeV sources HESS J1800-230A and HESS J1800-230C. The LAT data for HESS J1800-230A combined with the TeV data points indicate a spectral break between 10 GeV and 100 GeV.

AB This work discusses a Bayesian approach to approximating the distribution of parameters governing nonlinear structural systems. Specifically, we use a Markov Chain Monte Carlo method for sampling the posterior parameter distributions thus producing both point and interval estimates for parameters. The method is first used to identify both linear and nonlinear parameters in a multiple degree-of-freedom structural systems using free-decay vibrations. The approach is then applied to the problem of identifying the location, size, and depth of delamination in a model composite beam. The influence of additive Gaussian noise on the response data is explored with respect to the quality of the resulting parameter estimates. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Magnetic nanoparticles are used throughout biology for applications from targeted drug and gene delivery to the labeling of cells. These nanoparticles typically react with the biological medium to which they are introduced, resulting in a diminished magnetic moment. The rate at which their magnetic moment is diminished limits their utility for targeting and can signal the unintended release of surface-functionalized biomolecules. A foreknowledge of the time-dependent degradation of the magnetic moment in a given medium can aid in the selection of the optimal buffering solution and in the prediction of a reasonable experimental time frame. With this goal in mind, we have developed a SQUID magnetometer based methodology for measuring the saturation magnetic moment of nanoparticles in real time while immersed in a biological medium. Measurements on Co and Ni nanowires in a variety of commonly used buffered salines demonstrated that the technique has the dynamic range and sensitivity to detect the rapid reduction in moment due to active corrosion as well as much more subtle changes from the formation of a passivating surface oxide layer. In order to correlate the magnetic moment reductions to these specific chemical processes, samples were additionally characterized using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, inductively coupled plasma spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The most reactive buffers studied were found to be phosphate and carbonate based, which caused active corrosion of the Co nanowires but only a comparatively slow passivation of the Ni nanowires by oxidation.

AB Nonequilibrium carrier recombination in highly excited epitaxial layers of 4H-SiC and free standing 3C-SiC was analyzed numerically and studied experimentally by the time-resolved free carrier absorption (FCA) technique. The measurement setup combined interband carrier excitation by a picosecond laser pulse and probing of carrier dynamics at excess carrier densities in the Delta N = 10(17)-10(20) cm(-3) range by optically or electronically delayed probe pulses, thus providing temporal resolution of 10 ps and 10 ns, respectively. FCA decay kinetics at different excitation levels and subsequent numerical modeling were used to determine the bulk lifetime, surface recombination velocity, and bimolecular (B) and Auger recombination (C) coefficients at 300 K. Bulk lifetimes of similar to 800 ns and similar to 65 ns were determined in 4H and 3C epitaxial layers, respectively. The numerical fitting of FCA kinetics in the 4H layer provided values of B = (1.2 +/- 0.4) x 10(-12) cm(3)/s and C = (7 +/- 4) x 10(-31) cm(6)/s at lower excitations while the Auger coefficient decreased to C = (0.8 +/- 0.2) x 10(-31) cm(6)/s at Delta N similar to 10(20) cm(-3) due to screening of the Coulomb-enhanced Auger recombination. In 3C crystals, these values were measured to be B = (2.0 +/- 0.5) x 10(-12) cm(3)/s and C = (2.0 +/- 0.5) x 10(-32) cm(6)/s. The tendency for a strongly increased surface recombination rate in 3C at high excitation conditions was observed experimentally and associated with the screening of the surface potential by the high density carrier plasma.

AB An extensive investigation of the transport properties of aqueous acid solutions was undertaken. The acids studied were trifluoromethanesulfonic (CF3SO3H), bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide [(CF3SO7)(2)NH], and para-toluenesulfonic (CH3C6H4SO3H), of which the first two are considered superacids. NMR measurements of self-diffusion coefficients (D), spin lattice relaxation times (T-1), and chemical shifts, in addition to ionic conductivity (sigma), viscosity (eta), and density measurements, were performed at 30 degrees C over the concentration range of 2-112 water to acid molecules. Results showed broad maxima in sigma for all three acids in the concentration range of 12-20 water to acid molecules. This coincided with minima in anion Ds and is attributed to a local molecular ordering, reduced solution dielectric permittivity, and increased ionic interactions. The location of the maxima in sigma correlates with what is observed for hydrated sulfonated perfluoropolymers such as Nation, which gives a maximum in ionic transport when the ratio of water to acid molecules is about 15-20. Of the three acids, bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide was found to be the least dependent on hydration level. The occurrence of the anticorrelation between the ionic conductivity maximum and the anion self-diffusion minimum supports excess proton mobility in this region and may offer additional information on the strength of hydrogen bonding in aqueous media as well as on the role of high acid concentration in the Grotthuss proton transport mechanism.

AB Adsorbed sulfur is a poison to the Pt catalysts used in proton exchange membrane fuel cells, but it can be removed by potential cycling. This process is studied for Si-poisoned nanoscale Pt- and Pt3Co- on Vulcan carbon (Pt/VC and Pt3Co/VC) in perchloric acid electrolyte using the Delta mu adsorbate isolation technique for in situ X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The Delta mu technique is modified to better distinguish the Delta mu signatures for H, O, and S-x on Pt. The resulting Delta mu analysis suggests that SO2 on nanoscale Pt is oxidized to bisulfate or sulfate species in two regions, near 1.05 V on the cluster edges of the Pt nanoparticle, and at higher potentials from the Pt(111) faces where oxygen is less strongly bound. The bisulfate or sulfate species desorb from the Pt surface at high potentials due to O(OH) adsorption/replacement and at low potentials due to loss of the Coulomb attraction between the bisulfate anion and the Pt. A similar oxidation process occurs for S-x-poisoned Pt3Co/VC, but at lower potentials because a ligand effect coming from Co shifts the oxidization potential of adsorbed SO2 to lower potentials while pushing OH adsorption to higher potentials. The spectroscopic results give insights into cyclic voltammetry data and are consistent with electrochemical cycling procedures for removing the sulfur.

AB Sorbent polymers can be designed to target molecular interactions with a variety of hazardous chemicals including explosives, chemical agents, narcotics, and toxic industrial chemicals. Applications of functionalized sorbent polymers include preconcentrator devices, SPME fibers, membrane introduction systems, chromatographic stationary phases and coatings for chemical sensors. One common feature of a wide range of hazardous chemicals is their hydrogen bond (h-b) basicity. In this work, we report on the synthesis and characterization of a h-b acidic hyperbranched carbosilane fluoroalcohol based sorbent polymer (poly(methyldi(1,1,1-trifluoro-2-trifluoromethyl-2-hydroxypent-4-enyl)silane; HCSFA2), which is suitable for sorbing these hazardous h-b basic analytes. Multiple batches of HCSFA2 were characterized with routine composition, spectroscopic, thermal analysis, and inverse gas chromatography (iGC) to evaluate polymer physicochemical properties. In comparison with previously developed h-b acidic polymers (e.g., FPOL and SXFA), HCSFA2 exhibits a sorption improvement of 10-15 fold for h-b basic analytes. (C) 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

AB Porangahau Ridge, located offshore the Wairarapa on the Hikurangi Margin, is an active ocean-continent collision region in northeastern New Zealand coastal waters Bottom simulating reflections (BSRs) in seismic data indicate the potential for significant gas hydrate deposits across this part of the margin Beneath Porangahau Ridge a prominent high-amplitude reflection band has been observed to extend from a deep BSR towards the seafloor Review of the seismic data suggest that this high-amplitude band is caused by local shoaling of the base of gas hydrate stability due to advective heat flow and it may constitute the location of elevated gas hydrate concentrations. During R/V Tangaroa cruise TAN0607 in 2006 heat flow probing for measurements of vertical fluid migration, sediment coring for methane concentrations, and additional seismic profiles were obtained across the ridge In a subsequent 2007 expedition, on R/V Sonne cruise SO191, a controlled source electromagnetic (CSEM) experiment was conducted along the same seismic. geochemical, and heat flow transect to reveal the electrical resistivity distribution CSEM data highlight a remarkable coincidence of anomalously high resistivity along the western, landward flank of the ridge which point to locally higher gas hydrate concentration above the high amplitude reflection band. Measured sediment temperature profiles, also along the western flank, consistently show non-linear and concave geothermal gradients typical of advective heat flow Geochemical data reveal elevated methane concentrations in surface sediments concomitant with a rapid decline in sulfate concentrations indicating elevated methane flux and oxidation of methane in conjunction with sulfate reduction at the landward ridge base Together, these data sets suggest that the western rim of Porangahau Ridge is a tectonically driven zone of rising fluids that transport methane and cause an upward inflection of the base of gas hydrate stability and the formation of locally enriched gas hydrate above the reflective zone (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB The southern Hikurangi Subduction Margin is characterized by significant accretion with predicted high rates of fluid expulsion Bottom simulating reflections (BSRs) are widespread on this margin, predominantly occurring beneath thrust ridges. We present seismic data across the Porangahau Ridge on the outer accretionary wedge The data show high-amplitude reflections above the regional BSR level Based on polarity and reflection strength, we interpret these reflections as being caused by free gas We propose that the presence of gas above the regional level of BSRs indicates local upwarping of the base of gas hydrate stability caused by advective heatflow from upward migrating fluids, although we cannot entirely rule out alternative processes Simplified modelling of the increase of the thermal gradient associated with fluid flow suggests that funnelling of upward migrating fluids beneath low-permeability slope basins into the Porangahau Ridge would not lead to the pronounced thermal anomaly inferred from upwarping of the base of gas hydrate stability Focussing of fluid flow is predicted to take place deep in the accretionary wedge and/or the underthrust sediments. Above the high-amplitude reflections, sediment reflectivity is low. A lack of lateral continuity of reflections suggests that reflectivity is lost because of a destruction of sediment layering from deformation rather than gas-hydrate-related amplitude blanking Structural permeability from fracturing of sediments during deformation may facilitate fluid expulsion on the ridge A gap in the BSR in the southern part of the study area may be caused by a loss of gas during fluid expulsion We speculate that gaps in otherwise continuous BSRs that are observed beneath some thrusts on the Hikurangi Margin may be characteristic of other locations experiencing focussed fluid expulsion (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

AB We have developed a new methodology to fuse several precipitation datasets, available from different estimation techniques. The method is based on artificial neural networks and vector space transformation function. The final merged product is statistically superior to any of the individual datasets over a seasonal period. The results have been tested against ground-based measurements of rainfall over a study area. This method is shown to have average success rates of 85% in the summer, 68% in the fall, 77% in the spring, and 55% in the winter. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

TI Effects of magnetism and doping on the electron-phonon coupling in
BaFe2As2
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID FERROPNICTIDES
AB We calculate the effect of local magnetic moments on the electron-phonon coupling in doped BaFe2As2 using the density-functional perturbation theory. We show that the magnetism enhances the total electron-phonon coupling by similar to 50%, up to lambda <= 0.35, still not enough to explain the high critical temperature, but strong enough to have a non-negligible effect on superconductivity, for instance, by frustrating the coupling with spin fluctuations and inducing order-parameter nodes. The enhancement comes not from the phonon softening but mostly from a renormalization of the electron-phonon matrix elements. We also investigate, in the rigid band approximation, the effect of doping, and find that lambda versus doping does not mirror the behavior of the density of states; while the latter decreases upon electron doping, the former does not, and even increases slightly.

AB A near-ultraviolet (NUV) spectrograph (320-460 nm) was flown on the EXL98 aircraft sprite observation campaign during July 1998. In this wavelength range video rate (60 fields/sec) spectrographic observations found the NUV and blue emissions to be predominantly N-2 (2PG). The negligible level of N-2 + (1NG) present in the spectrum is confirmed by observations of a co-aligned, narrowly filtered 427.8 nm imager and is in agreement with previous ground-based filtered photometer observations. The synthetic spectral fit to the observations indicates a characteristic energy of similar to 1.8 eV, in agreement with our other NUV observations.

AB The physical connection between the eruption of coronal mass ejections (CMEs) and associated flare energy release is examined. The trajectories of five CMEs are determined using LASCO/SOHO or SECCHI/STEREO data, and the associated soft X-ray (SXR) light curves are obtained from GOES 1-8 angstrom data. As the theoretical description of CME physics, the existing erupting flux-rope model is used in which an initial flux rope is driven out of equilibrium by the increasing poloidal magnetic flux Phi(p)(t) (poloidal "flux injection"). Mathematically, this is represented by d Phi(p)(t)/dt. For each CME, this function is adjusted to obtain the solution that best fits the observed height-time data. The resulting d Phi(p)(t)/dt is shown to be strongly constrained by the CME height data. This function and the attendant electromotive force (EMF) given by epsilon(t) = -(1/c)d Phi(p)(t)/dt constitute predictions of the theory for each CME trajectory. It is shown that the best-fit solutions fit the CME trajectories within 1%-2% of the CME height data and that the temporal profile of the predicted d Phi(p)(t)/dt is correlated with that of the associated X-ray light curve regardless of the flare duration. Specifically, we find that the observed duration of SXR emission Delta T-SXR is comparable to and scales with the predicted duration Delta T-p of poloidal flux injection, i.e.,Delta T-SXR similar or equal to Delta T-p. Neither the predicted d Phi(p)(t)/dt nor the input CME height data contain any information on X-ray data. Thus, the correlation is nontrivial, constituting evidence that poloidal flux injection is physically connected to flare energy release. It is suggested that this connection is provided by the EMF that produces electric fields to accelerate particles.

AB We present a coherent timing analysis of the 2003 outburst of the accreting millisecond pulsar (AMXP) XTEJ1807-294. We find a 95% confidence interval for the pulse frequency derivative of (+0.7, +4.7) x 10(-14) Hz s(-1) and (-0.6, +3.8) x 10(-14) Hz s(-1) for the fundamental and second harmonics, respectively. The sinusoidal fractional amplitudes of the pulsations are the highest observed among AMXPs and can reach values of up to 27% (2.5-30 keV). The pulse arrival time residuals of the fundamental frequency follow a linear anti-correlation with the fractional amplitudes that suggests hot spot motion both in longitude and latitude over the surface of the neutron star. An anti-correlation between residuals and X-ray flux suggests an influence of the accretion rate on pulse phase and casts doubts on the interpretation of pulse frequency derivatives in terms of changes of spin rates and torques on the neutron star.

AB On 2008 May 2, Chandra observed the X-ray spectrum of xi Boo (G8 V+K4 V), resolving the binary for the first time in X-rays and allowing the coronae of the two stars to be studied separately. With the contributions of xi Boo A and B to the system's total X-ray emission now observationally established (88.5% and 11.5%, respectively), consideration of mass loss measurements for GK dwarfs of various activity levels (including one for xi Boo) leads to the surprising conclusion that xi Boo B may dominate the wind from the binary, with. Boo A's wind being very weak despite its active corona. Emission measure (EM) distributions and coronal abundances are computed for both stars and compared with Chandra measurements of other moderately active stars with G8-K5 spectral types, all of which exhibit a narrow peak in EM near log T = 6.6, indicating that the coronal heating process in these stars has a strong preference for this temperature. As is the case for the Sun and many other stars, our sample of stars shows coronal abundance anomalies dependent on the first ionization potential (FIP) of the element. We see no dependence of the degree of "FIP effect" on activity, but there is a dependence on spectral type, a correlation that becomes more convincing when moderately active main-sequence stars with a broader range of spectral types are considered. This clear dependence of coronal abundances on spectral type weakens if the stellar sample is allowed to be contaminated by evolved stars, interacting binaries, or extremely active stars with log L(X) > 29, explaining why this correlation has not been recognized in the past.

AB The Fermi observatory is advancing our knowledge of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) through pioneering observations at high energies, covering more than seven decades in energy with the two on-board detectors, the Large Area Telescope (LAT) and the Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM). Here, we report on the observation of the long GRB 090217A which triggered the GBM and has been detected by the LAT with a significance greater than 9 sigma. We present the GBM and LAT observations and on-ground analyses, including the time-resolved spectra and the study of the temporal profile from 8 keV up to similar to 1 GeV. All spectra are well reproduced by a Band model. We compare these observations to the first two LAT-detected, long bursts GRB 080825C and GRB 080916C. These bursts were found to have time-dependent spectra and exhibited a delayed onset of the high-energy emission, which are not observed in the case of GRB 090217A. We discuss some theoretical implications for the high-energy emission of GRBs.

ID QCD PHASE-DIAGRAM; CRITICAL-POINT; TRANSITION; COLLISIONS; MODEL
AB 200 GeV corresponding to baryon chemical potentials (mu(B)) between 200 and 20 MeV. Our measurements of the products kappa sigma(2) and S sigma, which can be related to theoretical calculations sensitive to baryon number susceptibilities and long-range correlations, are constant as functions of collision centrality. We compare these products with results from lattice QCD and various models without a critical point and study the root s(NN) dependence of kappa sigma(2). From the measurements at the three beam energies, we find no evidence for a critical point in the QCD phase diagram for mu(B) below 200 MeV.

TI Axillary sentinel lymph node biopsy after mastectomy: a case report
SO WORLD JOURNAL OF SURGICAL ONCOLOGY
LA English
DT Article
ID RECURRENT BREAST-CANCER; CARCINOMA; SURGERY
AB Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been established as the preferred method for staging early breast cancer. A prior history of mastectomy is felt to be a contraindication.
Case presentation: A patient with recurrent breast cancer in her skin flap was discovered to have positive axillary sentinel nodes by sentinel lymph node biopsy five years after mastectomy for ductal carcinoma in situ.
Conclusion: A prior history of mastectomy may not be an absolute contraindication to sentinel lymph node biopsy.

TI Three-Particle Coincidence of the Long Range Pseudorapidity Correlation
in High Energy Nucleus-Nucleus Collisions
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID GLASMA FLUX TUBES
AB We report the first three-particle coincidence measurement in pseudorapidity (Delta eta) between a high transverse momentum (p(perpendicular to)) trigger particle and two lower p(perpendicular to) associated particles within azimuth |Delta phi| < 0.7 in root s(NN) = 200 GeV d + Au and Au + Au collisions. Charge ordering properties are exploited to separate the jetlike component and the ridge (long range Delta eta correlation). The results indicate that the correlation of ridge particles are uniform not only with respect to the trigger particle but also between themselves event by event in our measured Delta eta. In addition, the production of the ridge appears to be uncorrelated to the presence of the narrow jetlike component.

TI Nonlinear Rossby waves off California
SO GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH LETTERS

DT Article
AB A new interpretation of SSH anomalies propagating in the California Current System as weakly nonlinear Rossby waves (RWs) is suggested. Satellite altimetry and float data were used to extract annual and semi-annual components of RWs from a multi-scale altimetry signal and estimate their kinematic characteristics. Different propagation regimes for the waves were identified by propagation speed, wave steepness and length of spatial phase coherence (SPC). A transition from a SSH field dominated by waves to a turbulent-like field was detected in the saturation regime. The recurrence period for wave behavior was estimated as about 105-120 (195-210) days for the semiannual (annual) component. The propagation speed and length of SPC decreased when wave steepness increased, and westward propagation halted during the saturation regime. Citation: Ivanov, L. M., C. A. Collins, T. M.

AB This paper describes the fabrication and characterization of photopolymerizable alkylphosphonate self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on group-III nitride substrates including GaN and Al(x)Ga(1-x)N (AlGaN; x = 0.2 and 0.25). Contact angle goniometry, visible absorption spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy were used to assess the formation, desorption, and photopolymerization of SAMs of diacetylenic alkylphosphonicl acids (CH(3)(CH(2))(n) -C equivalent to C-C equivalent to C- (CH(2))(m)PO(OH)(2); (m, n) = (3, 11), (6, 8), and (9, 5)). As with GaN substrates (Ito, T.; Forman, S. M.; Cao, C.; Li, E.; Eddy, C. R., Jr.; Mastro, M. A.; Holm, R. T.; Henry, R. L.; Hohn, K.; Edgar, J. H. Langmuir 2008, 24, 6630-6635), alkylphosphonic acids formed SAMs on UV/O(3)-treated AlGaN substrates from their toluene solutions in contrast to other primary substituted hydrocarbons with a terminal -COOH, -NH(2), -OH, or -SH group, Diacetylenic alkylphosphonate SAMs on group-Ill nitrides could be polymerized by UV irradiation (254 nm), as indicated by the appearance of a visible absorption band around 640 nm and also by their significantly reduced desorption from the surface in a 0.1 M aqueous NaOH solution. A longer UV irradiation time was required to maximize the photopolymerization of a SAM having a diacetylene group close to the terminal phosphonatc moiety, probably because of the hindrance of the topochemical polymerization due to the limited flexibility of the cross-linking moieties on an atomically rough substrate surface.

AB The mechanical properties of crosslinked polymers depend on their structural features, one of which is the functionality of the crosslinks in a polymer network. To study the effect of crosslink functionality (Phi) on the mechanical properties of 1,2,3-triazole polymers for potential application as rocket propellant binders, crosslinkers with different Phi's (3, 4, 6, 16, 32, and 64) were used in the polymerization. As the percentage of acetylenic groups provided by crosslinker was kept constant and the functionality of the crosslinker increased, the resulting polymer showed a higher modulus but a lower strain. Compared to traditional polyurethane binders, 1,2,3-triazole polymers showed comparable mechanical properties, although the stress and modulus tended to be lower and the strain capability tended to be greater for the triazole-linked rubbers.

TI Design and characterization of terahertz-absorbing nano-laminates of
dielectric and metal thin films
SO OPTICS EXPRESS
LA English
DT Article
AB A terahertz-absorbing thin-film stack, containing a dielectric Bragg reflector and a thin chromium metal film, was fabricated on a silicon substrate for applications in bi-material terahertz (THz) sensors. The Bragg reflector is to be used for optical readout of sensor deformation under THz illumination. The THz absorption characteristics of the thin-film composite were measured using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The absorption of the structure was calculated both analytically and by finite element modeling and the two approaches agreed well. Finite element modeling provides a convenient way to extract the amount of power dissipation in each layer and is used to quantify the THz absorption in the multi-layer stack. The calculation and the model were verified by experimentally characterizing the multi-layer stack in the 3-5 THz range. The measured and simulated absorption characteristics show a reasonably good agreement. It was found that the composite film absorbed about 20% of the incident THz power. The model was used to optimize the thickness of the chromium film for achieving high THz absorption and found that about 50% absorption can be achieved when film thickness is around 9 nm.

AB Background: Double negative CD3(+)4(-)8(-) TCR alpha beta splenic cells (DNCD3) can suppress the immune responses to allo and xenografts, infectious agents, tumors, and some autoimmune disorders. However, little is known about their role in autoimmune diabetes, a disease characterized by the reduction of insulin production subsequent to destruction of pancreatic beta-cells by a polyclonal population of self-reactive T-cells. Herein, we analyzed the function and phenotype of DNCD3 splenic cells in young NOD mice predisposed to several autoimmune disorders among which, the human-like autoimmune diabetes.
Methodology/Principal Findings: DNCD3 splenic cells from young NOD mice (1) provided long-lasting protection against diabetes transfer in NOD/Scid immunodeficient mice, (2) proliferated and differentiated in the spleen and pancreas of NOD/Scid mice and pre-diabetic NOD mice into IL-10-secreting T-R-1 like cells in a Th2-like environment, and (3) their anti-diabetogenic phenotype is CD3(+)(CD4(-)CD8(-))CD28(+)CD69(+)CD25(low) Foxp3(-) iCTLA-4(-)TCR alpha beta(+) with a predominant V beta 13 gene usage.
Conclusions/Significance: These findings delineate a new T regulatory component in autoimmune diabetes apart from that of NKT and CD4(+)CD25(high) Foxp3(+)T-regulatory cells. DNCD3 splenic cells could be potentially manipulated towards the development of autologous cell therapies in autoimmune diabetes.

AB We demonstrate techniques for growing three-dimensional quantum dot configurations using molecular beam epitaxy on faceted template islands. Molecular beam shadowing leads to new geometries through selective nucleation of the dots on the template edges. Strain-induced stacking converts the planar configurations into three-dimensional structures. The resulting dot morphologies and their configurational uniformity are studied using cross sectional scanning tunneling microscopy and atomic force microscopy. Combining photoluminescence measurements with structural characterization allows interpretation of the ensemble photoluminescence spectrum. Bright spectra for the three-dimensional structures suggest an improved method for combining lithographic nucleation sites with self-assembled dot growth. These techniques can be applied to lithographic templates to fabricate complex quantum dot networks.

AB NASA's anticipated return to the Moon by 2020 and subsequent establishment of a lunar base will necessitate the development of methods to utilize lunar resources for various construction and resource extraction applications. In this study the design of a lunar physical asset utilizing in-situ resources available at the lunar surface was examined. The design incorporated a voussoir dome type of architecture that has been in use for centuries on Earth. Production of the desired dome elements was accomplished by initiating a geothermite reaction in a mixture of lunar regolith simulant and aluminum powder. Shaping of voussoir elements was accomplished during the reaction using a custom fabricated silica-slip crucible to contain the geothermite reactant mixture. The product of the reaction retained the shape of the crucible. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

AB Modern instrument-simulation techniques offer the possibility of increasing the scientific yield from archival space datasets. In this paper, we report on a simulation of the electron response of the University of Chicago's Cosmic Ray Nuclei Experiment (CRNE) instrument on the IMP-8 satellite. IMP-8/CRNE returned data from 1973 to 2006. The CRNE particle telescope was designed to measure the isotopic composition of Galactic cosmic-ray (OCR) nuclei and has also been used in many studies of protons and ions above 10 MeV/nucleon from solar energetic particle (SEP) events. But CRNE also functions as a highly-capable detector for solar electrons above 0.5 MeV, an energy range that has not been extensively studied. Utilization of the CRNE electron data has heretofore been limited by the fact that CRNE was never calibrated for electrons. We have therefore used the GEANT4 Monte Carlo simulation package to model the CRNE response to electrons and (separately) protons for multiple energies and incident angles. The results were used to compute the energy- and angle-dependence of the effective area and the energy-dependence of the geometric factor. The response to protons, which was already well understood, was used to verify the mass model, the simulation settings, and the post-processing software. Our simulation of the IMP-8/CRNE electron response now allows analysis of hundreds of relativistic solar electron events observed by CRNE over the years, including studies of evolution of electron energy spectra with high time resolution. We show examples of these results and briefly discuss potential applications to future scientific investigations. Published by Elsevier Ltd. on behalf of COSPAR.

ID WATER-CONTENT; REFLECTANCE
AB The miniaturisation of sensors has in recent years led to the ability to provide multiple sensor operations from a single Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) platform. Multiple UAS platforms can be synchronised to link devices from separate UAS platforms thus proving a powerful capability for data collection, while opening up interesting opportunities in the way data is retrieved and used. A range of new sensors being investigated will be discussed with reference to selected case studies that have taken place. As we move into an increasingly growing, data rich environment, data management, quality and pedigree will become of increasing importance. Operations for both defence and non-defence applications will be discussed with reference to the present capability and what is required in future systems. This paper describes some of the sensors currently being evaluated. In the coming years it is expected that we will see a sharp increase in the use of small tactical sized autonomous vehicles in general and a large growth in the capability of the payloads being used.

AB Of the 23.8 million military veterans living in the United States, approximately 3 million have served in Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom. The injuries and illnesses that affect veterans returning from combat are predictable. Blast injuries are common and most often present as mild traumatic brain injury, which is synonymous with concussion. Family physicians caring for returning veterans will also encounter conditions such as posttraumatic stress disorder at rates higher than those in the general population. The symptoms associated with posttraumatic stress disorder and mild traumatic brain injury often overlap and can present concurrently. Treatment of traumatic brain injury should be based on symptoms and guided by clinical practice guidelines from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense. Family physicians should understand the range of post-war health concerns and screen returning service members for posttraumatic stress disorder, substance abuse, suicidality, and clinical depression. Family physicians are well positioned to offer continuity of care for issues affecting returning service members and to coordinate the delivery of specialized care when needed.

AB Background Tailoring care for patients and their families at the end of life is important.
Purpose To examine factors associated with patients' choices for level of care at the end of life.
Methods Data on demographics and level of care (full code, do not resuscitate, or withdrawal of life support) were collected on 1072 patients who died between January 1998 and June 2006 on a cardiac care unit. Logistic regression was used to identify factors associated with level of care.
Results Median (interquartile range) age of blacks was 64 (50-74) years and of whites was 70 (62-78) years. At the time of death, the level of care differed significantly between blacks and whites: 41.8% (n = 112) of blacks versus 26.7% (n = 194) of whites chose full code (P < .001), 37.3% (n = 96) of blacks versus 43.9% (n = 317) of whites chose do not resuscitate (P = .03), and 20.9% (n = 54) of blacks versus 29.3% ( n = 210) of whites chose withdrawal of life support (P = .005). After age, sex, diagnosis, and lengths of stay in intensive care unit and hospital were controlled for, blacks were more likely than whites to choose full code status at the time of death (odds ratio 1.91 [95% confidence interval, 2.63-1.39], P < .001).
Conclusions Blacks are 1.9 times as likely as others to choose full code at time of death. Cultural differences should be acknowledged when providing end-of-life care. (American Journal of Critical Care. 2010; 19:335-344)

AB Demographics and health practices of 2,232 pregnant women in rural northeastern Ghana and characteristics of their 2,279 newborns were analyzed to determine benefits associated with intermittent preventive treatment (IPTp), antenatal care, and/or bed net use during pregnancy. More than half reported bed net use, 90% reported at least two antenatal care visits, and > 82% took at least one IPTp dose of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine. Most used a bed net and IPTp (45%) or IPTp alone (38%). Low birth weight (<2,500 grams) characterized 18.3% of the newborns and was significantly associated with female sex, Nankam ethnicity, first-born status, and multiple births. Among newborns of primigravidae, IPTp was associated with a significantly greater birth weight, significantly fewer low birth weight newborns, improved hemoglobin levels, and less anemia. Babies of multigravidae derived no benefit to birth weight or hemoglobin level from single or multiple doses of sulfadoxine-pyrimethamine during pregnancy. No differences or benefits were seen when a bed net was the only protective factor.

AB The HERSCHEL (helium resonant scattering in the corona and heliosphere) experiment is a rocket mission that was successfully launched last September from White Sands Missile Range, New Mexico, USA. HERSCHEL was conceived to investigate the solar corona in the extreme UV (EUV) and in the visible broadband polarized brightness and provided, for the first time, a global map of helium in the solar environment. The HERSCHEL payload consisted of a telescope, HERSCHEL EUV Imaging Telescope (HEIT), and two coronagraphs, HECOR (helium coronagraph) and SCORE (sounding coronagraph experiment). The SCORE instrument was designed and developed mainly by Italian research institutes and it is an imaging coronagraph to observe the solar corona from 1.4 to 4 solar radii. SCORE has two detectors for the EUV lines at 121.6 nm (HI) and 30.4 nm (HeII) and the visible broadband polarized brightness. The SCORE UV detector is an intensified CCD with a microchannel plate coupled to a CCD through a fiber-optic bundle. The SCORE visible light detector is a frame-transfer CCD coupled to a polarimeter based on a liquid crystal variable retarder plate. The SCORE coronagraph is described together with the performances of the cameras for imaging the solar corona.

Methods: In this randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, after providing written informed consent, patients presenting to the ED with a chief complaint of migraine received a 500-mL bolus of IV saline solution and either 10 mg prochlorperazine with 12.5 mg diphenhydramine IV plus saline solution placebo subcutaneously or saline solution placebo IV plus 6 mg sumatriptan subcutaneously. Pain intensity was assessed with 100-mm visual analog scales (visual analog scale at baseline and every 20 minutes for 80 minutes). The primary outcome was change in pain intensity from baseline to 80 minutes or time of ED discharge if subjects remained in the ED for fewer than 80 minutes after treatment. Sedation and nausea were assessed every 20 minutes with visual analog scale scales, and subjects were contacted within 72 hours to assess headache recurrence.
Results: Sixty-eight subjects entered the trial, with complete data for 66 subjects. Baseline pain scores were similar for the prochlorperazine/diphenhydramine and sumatriptan groups (76 versus 71 mm). Mean reductions in pain intensity at 80 minutes or time of ED discharge were 73 mm for the prochlorperazine/diphenhydramine group and 50 mm for those receiving sumatriptan (mean difference 23 mm; 95% confidence interval 11 to 36 mm). Sedation, nausea, and headache recurrence rates were similar.
Conclusion: IV prochlorperazine with diphenhydramine is superior to subcutaneous sumatriptan in the treatment of migraine. [Ann Emerg Med. 2010;56:1-6.]

TI Injection Pharyngoplasty With Calcium Hydroxylapatite for Velopharyngeal
Insufficiency Patient Selection and Technique

ID VOCAL FOLD AUGMENTATION; CLEFT-PALATE SPEAKERS; COMPETENCE; SPHINCTER
AB Objective: To identify children who may benefit from calcium hydroxylapatite (CaHA) injection pharyngoplasty for symptomatic velopharyngeal insufficiency (VPI).
Design: Retrospective review of children with VPI who underwent injection pharyngoplasty with CaHA.
Setting: Multidisciplinary pediatric aerodigestive center.
Patients: Children with symptomatic VPI as defined by abnormal speech associated with subjective and objective measures of hypernasality.
Intervention: Posterior pharyngeal wall augmentation with injectable CaHA. Main Outcome Measure: Nasalence scores recorded as number of standard deviations (SDs) from normalized scores, and perceptual scoring recorded as standardized weighted score and caretaker satisfaction from direct report.
Results: Twelve children who had undergone injection pharyngoplasty with CaHA were identified. Of the 12 children, 8 demonstrated success at 3 months as defined by nasalence (<1 SD above normal nasalance scores), perceptual scoring (decrease in weighted score), and overall caretaker satisfaction. Four children were followed up for more than 24 months and continued to demonstrate stable success. The 4 children who failed the procedure all failed before the 3-month evaluation and demonstrated increased baseline severity of VPI as defined by increased preoperative nasalence scores (5.25 SD vs 2.4 SD above normalized scores), perceptual scores (weighted score, 4.25 vs 3.85), and characteristic nasendoscopy findings of a broad-based velopharyngeal gap or unilateral adynamism. Three of the 4 treatment failures occurred early in the senior author's (C.J.H.) experience with the technique.
Conclusions: Injection pharyngoplasty with CaHA is a useful adjunct in the treatment of children with mild VPI. Efficacy and safety have been demonstrated more than 24 months after injection. Patient selection and operative technique are critical to the success of the procedure. Success is seen most often in children with mild VPI and small well-defined velopharyngeal gaps consistent with touch closure.

AB The Advanced Camera for Surveys and the Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) have been used to obtain new Hubble Space Telescope images of NGC 4038/4039 ("The Antennae"). These new observations allow us to better differentiate compact star clusters from individual stars, based on both size and color. We use this ability to extend the cluster luminosity function (LF) by approximately 2 mag over our previous WFPC2 results, and find that it continues as a single power law, dN/dL proportional to L(alpha) with alpha = -2.13 +/- 0.07, down to the observational limit of M(V) approximate to -7. Similarly, the mass function (MF) is a single power law dN/dM proportional to M beta with beta = -2.10 +/- 0.20 for clusters with ages <3 x 10(8) yr, corresponding to lower mass limits that range from 10(4) to 10(5) M(circle dot), depending on the age range of the subsample. Hence, the power-law indices for the luminosity and MFs are essentially the same. The LF for intermediate-age clusters (i.e., similar to 100-300 Myr old objects found in the loops, tails, and outer areas) shows no bend or turnover down to M(V) approximate to -6, consistent with relaxation-driven cluster disruption models which predict the turnover should not be observed until M(V) approximate to -4. An analysis of individual similar to 0.5 kpc sized areas over diverse environments shows good agreement between values of alpha and beta, similar to the results for the total population of clusters in the system. There is tentative evidence that the values of both alpha and beta are flatter for the youngest clusters in some areas, but it is possible that this is caused by observational biases. Several of the areas studied show evidence for age gradients, with somewhat older clusters appearing to have triggered the formation of younger clusters. The area around Knot B is a particularly interesting example, with a similar to 10-50 Myr old cluster of estimated mass similar to 10(6) M(circle dot) having apparently triggered the formation of several younger, more massive (up to 5 x 10(6) M(circle dot)) clusters along a dust lane. A comparison with new NICMOS observations reveals that only 16% +/- 6% of the IR-bright clusters in the Antennae are still heavily obscured, with values of A(V) > 3 mag.

AB Of the over 450 exoplanets known to date, more than 420 of them have been discovered using radial velocity studies, a method that tells nothing about the inclination of the planet's orbit. Because it is more likely that the companion is a planetary-mass object in a moderate-to high-inclination orbit than a low-mass stellar object in a nearly face-on orbit, the secondary bodies are presumed to be planets. Interferometric observations allow us to inspect the angular diameter fit residuals to calibrated visibilities in order to rule out the possibility of a low-mass stellar companion in a very low-inclination orbit. We used the Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy Array interferometer to observe 20 exoplanet host stars and considered five potential secondary spectral types: G5 V, K0 V, K5 V, M0 V, and M5 V. If a secondary star is present and is sufficiently bright, the effects of the added light will appear in interferometric observations where the planet will not. All secondary types could be eliminated from consideration for seven host stars and no secondary stars of any spectral type could be ruled out for seven more. The remaining six host stars showed a range of possible secondary types.

AB Two of the most challenging objects for optical interferometry in the middle of the last century were the close components (FIN 332) of the wide visual binary STF2375 (= WDS 18455+0530 = HIP 92027 = ADS 11640). Each component of the wide pair was found to have subcomponents of approximately the same magnitude, position angle, and separation and, hence, were designated by the tongue-in-cheek monikers "Tweedledum and Tweedledee" by the great visual interferometrist William S. Finsen in 1953. They were later included in a list of "Double Stars that Vex the Observer" by W. H. van den Bos in 1958. While speckle interferometry has reaped a rich harvest investigating the close inteferometric binaries of Finsen, the "Tweedles" have continued to both fascinate and exasperate due to both the great similarity of the close pairs and the inherent 180 degrees ambiguity associated with interferometry. Detailed analysis of all published observations of the system has revealed several errors which are here corrected, allowing for determination of these orbital elements which resolve the quadrant ambiguity. A unique software filter was developed which allowed subarrays from archival ICCD speckle data from 1982 to be re-reduced. Those data, combined with new and unpublished observations obtained in 2001-2009 from NOAO 4 m telescopes, the Mount Wilson 100 inch telescope and the Naval Observatory Flagstaff Station 61 inch telescope as well as high-quality unresolved measures all allow for the correct orbits to be determined. Co-planarity of the multiple system is also investigated.

AB In this first paper on the results of our Herschel PACS survey of local ultra luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs), as part of our SHINING survey of local galaxies, we present far-infrared spectroscopy of Mrk 231, the most luminous of the local ULIRGs, and a type 1 broad absorption line AGN. For the first time in a ULIRG, all observed far-infrared fine-structure lines in the PACS range were detected and all were found to be deficient relative to the far infrared luminosity by 1-2 orders of magnitude compared with lower luminosity galaxies. The deficits are similar to those for the mid-infrared lines, with the most deficient lines showing high ionization potentials. Aged starbursts may account for part of the deficits, but partial covering of the highest excitation AGN powered regions may explain the remaining line deficits. A massive molecular outflow, discovered in OH and (18)OH, showing outflow velocities out to at least 1400 km s(-1), is a unique signature of the clearing out of the molecular disk that formed by dissipative collapse during the merger. The outflow is characterized by extremely high ratios of (18)O/(16)O suggestive of interstellar medium processing by advanced starbursts.

AB The Ultra luminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) Mrk 231 reveals up to seven rotational lines of water (H(2)O) in emission, including a very high-lying (Eupper = 640 K) line detected at a 4 sigma level, within the Herschel/SPIRE wavelength range (190 < lambda(mu m) < 640), whereas PACS observations show one H(2)O line at 78 mu m in absorption, as found for other H(2)O lines previously detected by ISO. The absorption/emission dichotomy is caused by the pumping of the rotational levels by far-infrared radiation emitted by dust, and subsequent relaxation through lines at longer wavelengths, which allows us to estimate both the column density of H(2)O and the general characteristics of the underlying far-infrared continuum source. Radiative transfer models including excitation through both absorption of far-infrared radiation emitted by dust and collisions are used to calculate the equilibrium level populations of H(2)O and the corresponding line fluxes. The highest-lying H(2)O lines detected in emission, with levels at 300-640 K above the ground state, indicate that the source of far-infrared radiation responsible for the pumping is compact (radius = 110-180 pc) and warm (T(dust) = 85-95 K), accounting for at least 45% of the bolometric luminosity. The high column density, N(H(2)O) similar to 5 x 10(17) cm(-2), found in this nuclear component, is most probably the consequence of shocks/cosmic rays, an XDR chemistry, and/or an "undepleted chemistry" where grain mantles are evaporated. A more extended region, presumably the inner region of the 1-kpc disk observed in other molecular species, could contribute to the flux observed in low-lying H(2)O lines through dense hot cores, and/or shocks. The H(2)O 78 mu m line observed with PACS shows hints of a blue-shifted wing seen in absorption, possibly indicating the occurrence of H(2)O in the prominent outflow detected in OH (Fischer et al. 2010, A&A, 518, L41). Additional PACS/HIFI observations of H(2)O lines are required to constrain the kinematics of the nuclear component, as well as the distribution of H(2)O relative to the warm dust.

AB Context. The Na x X-ray lines between 10.9 and 11.2 angstrom have attracted little attention but are of interest since they enable an estimate the coronal abundance of Na to be made. This is of great interest in the continuing debate on the nature of the FIP (first ionization potential) effect.
Aims. Observations of the Na x lines with the Solar Maximum Mission Flat Crystal Spectrometer and a rocket-borne X-ray spectrometer are used to measure the Na/Ne abundance ratio, i.e. the ratio of an element with very low FIP to one with high FIP.
Methods. New atomic data are used to generate synthetic spectra which are compared with the observations, with temperature and the Na/Ne abundance ratio as free parameters.
Results. Temperature estimates from the observations indicate that the line emission is principally from non-flaring active regions, and that the Na/Ne abundance ratio is 0.07 +/- 50%.
Conclusions. The Na/Ne abundance ratio is close to a coronal value for which the abundances of low-FIP elements (FIP < 10 eV) are enhanced by a factor of 3 to 4 over those found in the photosphere. For low-temperature (T-e <= 1.5 MK) spectra, the presence of Fe XVII lines requires that either a higher-temperature component is present or a revision of ionization or recombination rates is needed.

AB Context. We present far-infrared spectroscopic observations, taken with the Photodetector Array Camera and Spectrometer (PACS) on the Herschel Space Observatory, of the protoplanetary disk around the pre-main-sequence star HD 100546. These observations are the first within the DIGIT Herschel key program, which aims to follow the evolution of dust, ice, and gas from young stellar objects still embedded in their parental molecular cloud core, through the final pre-main-sequence phases when the circumstellar disks are dissipated.
Aims. Our aim is to improve the constraints on temperature and chemical composition of the crystalline olivines in the disk of HD 100546 and to give an inventory of the gas lines present in its far-infrared spectrum.
Methods. The 69 mu m feature is analyzed in terms of position and shape to derive the dust temperature and composition. Furthermore, we detected 32 emission lines from five gaseous species and measured their line fluxes.
Results. The 69 mu m emission comes either from dust grains with similar to 70 K at radii larger than 50 AU, as suggested by blackbody fitting, or it arises from similar to 200K dust at similar to 13AU, close to the midplane, as supported by radiative transfer models. We also conclude that the forsterite crystals have few defects and contain at most a few percent iron by mass. Forbidden line emission from [C II] at 157 mu m and [OI] at 63 and 145 mu m, most likely due to photodissociation by stellar photons, is detected. Furthermore, five H(2)O and several OH lines are detected. We also found high-J rotational transition lines of CO, with rotational temperatures of similar to 300K for the transitions up to J = 22-21 and T similar to 800 K for higher transitions.

AB We present Herschel-PACS observations of rest-frame mid-infrared and far-infrared spectral line emissions from two lensed, ultra-luminous infrared galaxies at high redshift: MIPS J142824.0+352619 (MIPS J1428), a starburst-dominated system at z = 1.3, and IRAS F10214+4724 (F10214), a source at z = 2.3 hosting both star-formation and a luminous AGN. We have detected [OI] 63 mu m and [OIII] 52 mu m in MIPS J1428, and tentatively [O III] 52 mu m in F10214. Together with the recent ZEUS-CSO [CII] 158 mu m detection in MIPS J1428 we can for the first time combine [OI], [CII] and far-IR (FIR) continuum measurements for PDR modeling of an ultra-luminous (L(IR) >= 10(12) L(circle dot)) star forming galaxy at the peak epoch of cosmic star formation. We find that MIPS J1428, contrary to average local ULIRGs, does not show a deficit in [OI] relative to FIR. The combination of far-UV flux G(0) and gas density n (derived from the PDR models), as well as the star formation efficiency (derived from CO and FIR) is similar to normal or starburst galaxies, despite the high infrared luminosity of this system. In contrast, F10214 has stringent upper limits on [OIV] and [S III], and an [O III]/FIR ratio at least an order of magnitude lower than local starbursts or AGN, similar to local ULIRGs.

AB Context. Active region moss are transition region phenomena, first noted in the images recorded by the Transition Region and Coronal Explorer (TRACE) in lambda 171. Moss regions are thought to be the footpoints of hot loops (3-5 MK) seen in the core of active regions. These hot loops appear "fuzzy" (unresolved). Therefore, it is difficult to study the physical plasma parameters in individual hot core loops and hence their heating mechanisms. Moss regions provide an excellent opportunity to study the physics of hot loops. In addition, they allow us to study the transition region dynamics in the footpoint regions.
Aims. To derive the physical plasma parameters such as temperature, electron density, and filling factors in moss regions and to study their variation over a short (an hour) and a long time period (5 consecutive days).
Methods. Primarily, we have analyzed spectroscopic observations recorded by the Extreme-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) aboard Hinode. In addition we have used supplementary observations taken from TRACE and the X-Ray Telescope (XRT) aboard Hinode.
Results. The moss emission is strongest in the Fe XII and Fe XIII lines. Based on analyses using line ratios and emission measure we found that moss regions have a characteristic temperature of log T[K] = 6.2. The temperature structure in moss region remains almost identical from one region to another and it does not change with time. The electron densities measured at different locations in the moss regions using Fe XII ratios are about 1-3x10(10) cm(-3) and about 2-4x10(9) cm(-3) using Fe XIII and Fe XIV The densities in the moss regions are similar in different places and show very little variation over short and long time scales. The derived electron density substantially increased (by a factor of about 3-4 or even more in some cases) when a background subtraction was performed. The filling factor of the moss plasma can vary between 0.1-1 and the path length along which the emission originates is from a few 100 to a few 1000 kms long. By combining the observations recorded by TRACE, EIS and XRT, we find that the moss regions correspond to the footpoints of both hot and warm loops.

TI Black hole accretion and star formation as drivers of gas excitation and

AB We present a full high resolution SPIRE FTS spectrum of the nearby ultraluminous infrared galaxy Mrk 231. In total 25 lines are detected, including CO J = 5-4 through J = 13-12, 7 rotational lines of H(2)O, 3 of OH(+) and one line each of H(2)O(+), CH(+), and HF. We find that the excitation of the CO rotational levels up to J = 8 can be accounted for by UV radiation from star formation. However, the approximately flat luminosity distribution of the CO lines over the rotational ladder above J = 8 requires the presence of a separate source of excitation for the highest CO lines. We explore X-ray heating by the accreting supermassive black hole in Mrk 231 as a source of excitation for these lines, and find that it can reproduce the observed luminosities. We also consider a model with dense gas in a strong UV radiation field to produce the highest CO lines, but find that this model strongly overpredicts the hot dust mass in Mrk 231. Our favoured model consists of a star forming disk of radius 560 pc, containing clumps of dense gas exposed to strong UV radiation, dominating the emission of CO lines up to J = 8. X-rays from the accreting supermassive black hole in Mrk 231 dominate the excitation and chemistry of the inner disk out to a radius of 160 pc, consistent with the X-ray power of the AGN in Mrk 231. The extraordinary luminosity of the OH(+) and H(2)O(+) lines reveals the signature of X-ray driven excitation and chemistry in this region.

AB Aims. We aim to study the composition and energetics of the circumstellar material of DK Cha, an intermediate-mass star in transition from an embedded configuration to a star plus disk stage, during this pivotal stage of its evolution.
Methods. Using the range scan mode of PACS on the Herschel Space Observatory, we obtained a spectrum of DK Cha from 55 to 210 mu m as part of the DIGIT key program.
Results. Almost 50 molecular and atomic lines were detected, many more than the 7 lines detected in ISO-LWS. Nearly the entire ladder of CO from J = 14-13 to 38-37 (E(u)/k = 4080 K), water from levels as excited as J(K-1K+1) = 7(07) (E(u)/k = 843 K), and OH lines up to E(u)/k = 290 K were detected.
Conclusions. The continuum emission in our PACS SED scan matches the flux expected by a model consisting of a star, a surrounding disk of 0.03 M(circle dot), and an envelope of a similar mass, supporting the suggestion that the object is emerging from its main accretion stage. Molecular, atomic, and ionic emission lines in the far-infrared reveal the outflow's influence on the envelope. The inferred hot gas may be photon-heated, but some emission may be caused by C-shocks in the walls of the outflow cavity.

AB The analysis of radial velocities of the Be star o Cas from spectra taken between 1992 and 2008 at the Ondrejov Observatory and the Dominion Astrophysical Observatory allowed us to reconfirm the binary nature of this object, first suggested by Abt and Levy in 1978, but later refuted by several authors. The orbital parameters of this SB1 system imply a very high mass function of about one solar mass. This in turn leads to a very high mass of the secondary, possibly higher than that of the primary. In order to look for such a massive secondary, o Cas was observed with the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer, which allowed the binary components to be spatially resolved for the first time. The interferometric observations lead to the detection of a secondary, about 3 mag fainter than the primary. The possible properties of this peculiar binary system and the reasons why the massive secondary does not dominate the optical spectrum are discussed.

AB The detection of diffuse radio emission associated with clusters of galaxies indicates populations of relativistic leptons infusing the intracluster medium (ICM). Those electrons and positrons are either injected into and accelerated directly in the ICM, or produced as secondary pairs by cosmic-ray ions scattering on ambient protons. Radiation mechanisms involving the energetic leptons together with the decay of neutral pions produced by hadronic interactions have the potential to produce abundant GeV photons. Here, we report on the search for GeV emission from clusters of galaxies using data collected by the Large Area Telescope on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope from 2008 August to 2010 February. Thirty-three galaxy clusters have been selected according to their proximity and high mass, X-ray flux and temperature, and indications of non-thermal activity for this study. We report upper limits on the photon flux in the range 0.2-100 GeV toward a sample of observed clusters (typical values (1-5) x 10(-9) photon cm(-2) s(-1)) considering both point-like and spatially resolved models for the high-energy emission and discuss how these results constrain the characteristics of energetic leptons and hadrons, and magnetic fields in the ICM. The volume-averaged relativistic-hadron-to-thermal energy density ratio is found to be <5%-10% in several clusters.

AB Although rapid reorientation of a black hole spin axis ( lasting less than a few megayears) has been suggested as a mechanism for the formation of wings in X-shaped radio galaxies (XRGs), to date no convincing case of reorientation has been found in any XRG. Alternative wing formation models such as the hydrodynamic backflow models are supported by observed trends indicating that XRGs form preferentially with jets aligned along the major axis of the surrounding medium and wings along the minor axis. In this Letter, we present a deep Chandra observation of 4C +00.58, an odd XRG with its jet oriented along the minor axis. By using the X-ray data in tandem with available radio and optical data, we estimate relevant timescales with which to evaluate wing formation models. The hydrodynamic models have difficulty explaining the long wings, whereas the presence of X-ray cavities (suggesting jet activity along a prior axis) and a potential stellar shell ( indicating a recent merger) favor a merger-induced reorientation model.

AB The modulation of the African easterly jet (AEJ) by a mesoscale convective system (MCS) is examined in a numerical simulation. An AEJ with a strong and confined core is simulated before the formation of the MCS north of the AEJ axis, and the jet is 'split' with two separate cores after the passage of the MCS. Our diagnosis suggests that the MCS may be triggered by a wave propagating south of the AEJ axis. A momentum budget analysis indicates that the meridional circulation associated with the MCS weakens the jet to its south and forms the secondary jet to its north.

AB TEMME LA, STILL DL, ACROMITE MT. Hypoxia and flight performance of military instructor pilots in a flight simulator. Aviat Space Environ Med. 2010; 81:7:654-9. Introduction: Military aircrew and other operational personnel frequently perform their duties at altitudes posing a significant hypoxia risk, often with limited access to supplemental oxygen. Despite the significant risk hypoxia poses, there are few studies relating it to primary flight performance, which is the purpose of the present study. Methods: Objective, quantitative measures of aircraft control were collected from 14 experienced, active duty instructor pilot volunteers as they breathed an air/nitrogen mix that provided an oxygen partial pressure equivalent to the atmosphere at 18,000 ft (5486.4 m) above mean sea level. The flight task required holding a constant airspeed, altitude, and heading at an airspeed significantly slower than the aircraft's minimum drag speed. The simulated aircraft's inherent instability at the target speed challenged the pilot to maintain constant control of the aircraft in order to minimize deviations from the assigned flight parameters. Results: Each pilot's flight performance was evaluated by measuring all deviations from assigned target values. Hypoxia degraded the pilot's precision of altitude and airspeed control by 53%, a statistically significant decrease in flight performance. The effect on heading control effects was not statistically significant. There was no evidence of performance differences when breathing room air pre- and post-hypoxia. Discussion: Moderate levels of hypoxia degraded the ability of military instructor pilots to perform a precision slow flight task. This is one of a small number of studies to quantify an effect of hypoxia on primary flight performance.

AB O'CONNOR P, COWAN S. ALTON J. A comparison of leading and lagging indicators of safety in naval aviation. Aviat Space Environ Med 2010; 81:677-82. Background: The purpose of this paper is to examine the results of two different methods of identifying human factors safety concerns in U.S. Naval aviation. In both studies, the information was collected using the Department of Defense Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (DoD-HFACS). Methods: In the first study, aviation mishap data (a lagging indictor) was obtained on 47 F/A-18 and 16 H-60 mishaps. In the second study, the responses of 68 squadrons to a survey regarding the human factors issues that they considered to be of the greatest safety concern were examined (a leading indicator). Results: First study results revealed that skill-based errors were the most commonly cited factors for both F/A-18 and H-60 mishaps (70.2% and 81.3%, respectively). More specifically, the most commonly used nanocodes were 'over control/under control' (27.7% and 56.3%, respectively), 'breakdown in visual scan' (27.7% and 12.5%, respectively), and 'procedural errors' (23.4% and 37.6%, respectively). The second study identified that the main concern of F/A-18 and H-60 aviators was workload and operational tempo (identified by 85% of squadrons). Discussion: It can be concluded that the nanocodes that were most commonly used to classify the causes of past mishaps were not identified as major concerns by the squadrons who responded to the survey. The findings from these studies emphasize the importance of examining a number of performance metrics to ensure that effective measures are being taken to improve safety.

AB The conjugation of biomolecules such as proteins and peptides to semiconductor quantum dots (QD) is a critical step in the development of QD-based imaging probes and nanocarriers. Such protein-QD assemblies can have a wide range of biological applications including in vitro protein assays and live-cell fluorescence imaging. One conjugation scheme that has a number of advantages is the self-assembly of biomolecules on a QD surface via polyhistidine coordination. This approach has been demonstrated using QDs that have different coating types, resulting in different interactions between the biomolecule and QD surface. Here, we report the use of a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) assay to evaluate the self-assembly of fluorescent proteins on the surface of QDs with eight distinct coatings, including several used in commercial preparations. The results of this systematic comparison can provide a basis for rational design of self-assembled biomolecule-QD complexes for biomedical applications.

AB How do military forces respond (or not respond) to mass protests during moments of constitutional crisis, when civilian opposition movements attempt to force elected officials from power before the end of their terms of office? Even in democracies, militaries deliberate about whether to obey orders to repress the opposition, balancing the costs of repression the-likelihood that they will face prosecution for human rights abuses or experience internal schisms-against the cost of disobeying the executive. The dominant strategy for militaries during moments of crisis is quartering-remaining confined to the barracks-and refusing to take sides. This finding is confirmed by contrasting military actions during three constitutional crises in Latin America-Argentina in 2001, Venezuela in 2002, and Bolivia in 2003.

AB We have measured internal friction and shear modulus of both reduced graphene oxide and chemical-vapor deposited graphene films measuring as thin as 5 nm. Graphene oxide films were deposited from solutions by spin-coating, and graphene films were synthesized by chemical-vapor deposition (CVD) on Ni thin films. In both cases, these films were transferred from their host substrate into a water bath, then re-deposited onto to a high-Q single crystal silicon mechanical double-paddle oscillator. A minimal thickness dependence of both internal friction and shear modulus was found within the experimental uncertainty for reduced graphene oxide films varying thickness from 5 to 90 nm. The internal friction of all films exhibits a temperature independent plateau below 10 K. The values of the plateaus are similar for both the reduced graphene oxide films and CVD graphene films, and they are as high as the universal "glassy range" where the tunneling states dominated internal friction of amorphous solids lies. This result shows that from a mechanical loss point of view, both graphene oxide and CVD graphene films have high and similar level of disorder. Raman measurements performed on the same samples show higher structure order in CVD graphene films than in graphene oxide films. Our results suggest that internal friction probes different sources of disorder from those by Raman, and the disorder is not directly related to the existence of C-O binding in the graphene oxide films. The shear modulus averages 53 GPa after subtracting Young's modulus component from the vibration mode used in experiments. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB Expressions are derived to calculate the equilibrium oxidation-reduction potentials for the Al(+3)/Al, Cu(+2)/Cu, and Zn(+2)/Zn systems in small-scale electrolytes. The geometrical system consists of a droplet of electrolyte resting on a flat metal plate, and the metal is considered to be immersed in a solution of its own ions. When the radius of the drop is allowed to vary, both the size of the electrolyte and the size of the active metal beneath the droplet change simultaneously. The total free energy change for the system consists of both electrochemical and surface chemical contributions. The interfacial free energy for the solid/liquid interface has been estimated from the Girifalco-Good expression or from spreading pressure considerations. When the droplet becomes sufficiently small in radius, the surface chemical contributions become significant, and the calculated redox potential changes from its normal value to more negative values as the size of the system decreases. The magnitude of this effect depends on the particular system. For 2 M Cu(+2), the calculated redox potential for a 0.8 nm radius droplet is 0.259 V more negative than for the bulk electrolyte. The effect is much smaller for aluminum and zinc. In all three systems, calculated redox potentials approach values for the bulk solution for droplet radii of about 10 nm. (C) 2010 Elsevier Ltd.

AB Turbulent wall pressure fluctuation correlation functions were measured in water on a towed cylindrical model of length 129.8 m and diameter 3.8 cm for steady speeds ranging from 6.2 to 15.5 m/s. The drag on the model was measured with a strut-mounted load cell to provide estimates of the momentum thickness and friction velocity that are used for scaling the correlation functions. Very high momentum thickness Reynolds numbers Re(theta) were achieved, and varied from 4.8 x 10(5) to 1.1 x 10(6). The ratio of boundary layer thickness to cylinder radius was approximately 24, which is an order of magnitude greater than previous laboratory investigations. The ratio of momentum thickness to viscous length scale is significantly greater than for flat plate cases at comparable Re(theta). A similarity scaling is shown to be more effective than outer or inner boundary layer scalings for collapsing the correlation functions. Comparisons with the early streamwise and transverse correlation measurements of Willmarth and Yang are favorable, and show consistent trends of a more rapid loss of correlated energy for cylindrical turbulent boundary layers than for flat plate cases. Convection velocities are also presented and shown to collapse well with separation scaled on outer variables. A simple model that relates the peak of the correlation function to the average coherence levels is shown to be valid for spatial separations less than the approximate momentum thickness.

AB Ulcerative colitis is a chronic condition that requires long-term treatment. The first-line therapy remains 5-aminosalicylic acid, which is available in several different formulations and dosing schedules. Several studies have demonstrated that adherence rates to prescribed 5-aminosalicylic acid products are below those expected for a drug that has significant consequences on important outcomes. Worse disease outcomes, higher medical costs and even potentially higher rates of colorectal cancer have been associated with nonadherence. Nonadherence is multifactorial, fluid in nature over time and is dependent on disease activity level. Interventions to improve adherence rates have to be individualized. With the advent of simpler dosing regimens it was assumed that adherence rates would improve, but this has not been the case. Despite our current knowledge about nonadherence, it remains difficult to manage long term.

ID BACKSCATTERING; SAX99
AB As part of the effort to characterize the acoustic and physical properties of the seafloor during the high-frequency 2004 Sediment Acoustics Experiment (SAX04), fine-scale variability of sediment sound speed and density was measured in a medium quartz sand using diver cores and an in situ conductivity probe. This study has a goal of providing environmental input to high-frequency backscatter modeling efforts. Because the experiment was conducted immediately following exposure of the site to Hurricane Ivan, measurements revealed storm-generated sedimentary structure that included mud deposits and trapped sand pockets suspended in the mud. Fluctuations of sediment sound speed and density were measured downcore at 1- and 2-cm increments, respectively, with standard laboratory techniques. Sediment density was also measured on a very fine scale with an in situ conductivity probe [in situ measurement of porosity (IMP2)] and by means of computed tomography (CT) imaging of a diver core. Overlap between the locations of the diver cores and the conductivity probe measurements allowed an examination of multiple scales of sediment heterogeneity and a comparison of techniques. Sediment heterogeneity was characterized using estimates of covariance corresponding to an algebraic form for the power spectrum of fluctuations obtained from core, conductivity, and CT measurements. Correcting for sampling brings the power spectra for density fluctuations determined from the various measurements into agreement, and supports description of heterogeneity at the site over a wide range of scales by a power spectrum having a simple algebraic form.

TI Measurement of the Frequency Dependence of the Sound Speed and

DT Article
DE Attenuation; dispersion; frequency; sand; sound speed
ID MARINE-SEDIMENTS; ELASTIC WAVES; PROPAGATION; RANGE
AB Measurements of sound speed and attenuation were performed over a frequency range from 1 to 400 kHz in the sandy seafloor near Ft. Walton Beach, FL, as part of the 2004 Sediment Acoustics Experiment (SAX04). The measurements at the lowest frequencies, from 1 to 20 kHz, were performed by transmitting tone burst signals from two acoustic sources positioned at depths up to 1 m below the seafloor which were recorded on a 4 m x 4 m array of 35 hydrophones emplaced to depths of between 0.1 and 1 m. Measurements were obtained at frequencies from 40 to 200 kHz with the In Situ Sediment Acoustic Measurement System (ISSAMS), a fixed linear array of four piezoelectric probes. The probes were inserted to a depth of 0.3 m, and the outer two probes were used as transmitters, with the inner probes acting as receivers. Sound-speed measurements were also made at 100, 200, and 400 kHz on diver-collected cores using four separate pairs of ultrasonic transducers. The sound-speed measurements above 40 kHz demonstrate an essentially constant sound-speed ratio with frequency of between 1.165 and 1.175, where the sound-speed ratio is the ratio of the speed through the sand to the speed through the overlying seawater. The sound-speed ratio determined from the low-frequency array data decreased from 1.135 to 1.115 with decreasing frequency below 20 kHz. Uncertainties in the sound-speed ratio values on the order of +/- 0.02 do not allow meaningful tests of the ability of Biot-Stoll or Buckingham propagation models to describe the observed dispersion. The measured attenuation values show a range from 1 to 120 dB/m with frequency from 1 to 400 kHz. At frequencies above 40 kHz, the attenuation follows a linear trend parallel to the estimates from the Buckingham model, as fit to the data with two free parameters, and at the highest frequencies significantly exceeding the Biot model prediction, as parameterized with values selected from the range of measurements of sediment and pore-water properties made from throughout the SAX04 site. At frequencies below 20 kHz, the data straddle the trends from the two models.

AB Novel high-power ytterbium YAG lasers are described. These lasers incorporate the principle of anti-Stokes fluorescence cooling to reduce or eliminate detrimental heating. Lasers with net heating and net cooling are demonstrated. By balancing the spontaneous and stimulated emission, we have reduced the net thermal loading to below 0.01% of the laser's average output power. Design, testing, and analysis are reported for lasers up to 500 W average power and pulsed operation up to 30 s. Issues and limitations of this approach are discussed.

AB An autonomous distributed control algorithm for multiple spacecraft performing simultaneous close proximity maneuvers has been developed. Examples of these maneuvers include automated on-orbit inspection, assembly, or servicing. The proposed control algorithm combines the control effort efficiency of the Linear Quadratic Regulator (LQR) and the robust collision avoidance capability of the Artificial Potential Function (APF) method. The LQR control effort serves as the attractive force toward goal positions, while APF-based repulsive functions provide collision avoidance for both fixed and moving obstacles. Comprehensive validation and performance evaluation of the control algorithm is conducted by numerical simulations. The simulation results show the developed LQR/APF algorithm to be both robust and efficient for controlling multiple spacecraft during simultaneous docking maneuvers.
Note to Practitioners-Use of multiple spacecraft for close proximity operations is expected to increase in future space missions. A challenging problem is how to automate motion planning and control of multiple spacecraft in close proximity. This paper presents a distributed control algorithm for simultaneous docking maneuvers of multiple spacecraft.

AB This paper focuses on the analysis of nonlinear inter-symbol interference (ISI) in RF bandpass delta-sigma power digital-to-analog converters (DACs). Digital RF transmitters based on direct delta-sigma modulation have been proposed for efficient linear multi-functional radios. We show that a realistic one-bit DAC limits the linearity of such a transmitter. The linearity is discussed in terms of ISI, for both single-ended and differential DAC circuits. Theoretical and experimental comparisons are given with a three-tone delta-sigma test signal at a 1.5 GHz clock frequency with 60 MHz possible signal bandwidth centered at 375 MHz. The signal-to-noise-and-distortion (SINAD) is shown to be improved for the differential case. It is also shown that circuit design and bias voltages have a dramatic effect on signal linearity.

AB The SeaWinds scatterometer, onboard the QuikSCAT satellite, infers global ocean vector winds (OVWs); however, for a number of reasons, these measurements in hurricanes are significantly degraded. This paper presents an improved hurricane OVW retrieval approach, known as Q-Winds, which is derived from combined SeaWinds active and passive measurements. In this technique, the effects of rain are implicitly included in a new geophysical model function, which relates oceanic brightness temperature and radar backscatter measurements (at the top of the atmosphere) to the surface wind vector under both clear sky and in the presence of light to moderate rain. This approach extends the useful wind speed measurement range for tropical cyclones beyond that exhibited by the standard SeaWinds Project Level-2B (L2B) 12.5-km wind vector algorithm. A description of the Q-Winds algorithm is given, and examples of OVW retrievals are presented for the Q-Winds and L2B 12.5-km algorithms for ten hurricane overpasses in 2003-2008. These data are also compared to independent surface wind vector estimates from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Hurricane Research Division's objective hurricane surface wind analysis technique known as H* Wind. These comparisons suggest that the Q-Winds OVW product agrees better with independently derived H* Wind analysis winds than does the conventional L2B OVW product.

AB There exists a widely recognized need to better understand andmanage complex "systems of systems," ranging from biology, ecology, and medicine to network-centric technologies. This is motivating the search for universal laws of highly evolved systems and driving demand for new mathematics and methods that are consistent, integrative, and predictive. However, the theoretical frameworks available today are not merely fragmented but sometimes contradictory and incompatible. We argue that complexity arises in highly evolved biological and technological systems primarily to provide mechanisms to create robustness. However, this complexity itself can be a source of new fragility, leading to "robust yet fragile" tradeoffs in system design. We focus on the role of robustness and architecture in networked infrastructures, and we highlight recent advances in the theory of distributed control driven by network technologies. This view of complexity in highly organized technological and biological systems is fundamentally different from the dominant perspective in the mainstream sciences, which downplays function, constraints, and tradeoffs, and tends to minimize the role of organization and design.

AB Isothermal weak field frequency sweeps were conducted over the temperature range 30 to 140 degrees C on multidomain, oriented, and poled (1-x)Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O-3-xPbTiO(3) (PZN-PT) single crystals with x = 0.045, 0.06, 0.07, and 0.08 near the ferroelectric rhombohedral (F-R)-ferroelectric tetragonal (F-T) morphotropic phase boundary (MPB). The temperature dependencies of the small-signal 33-mode electromechanical properties were derived from the isothermal frequency sweeps. Morphotropic compositions with x = 0.06 and 0.07 PT were found to exhibit the largest electromechanical coupling and piezoelectric coefficient, with k(33) > 0.90 and d(33) similar to 2300 pC/N, and the lowest short-circuit Young's modulus of similar to 9 GPa.
Reversible zero-field elastic instability attributable to a F-R-F-O transition was observed under isothermal compression-decompression of a 0.94PZN-0.06PT single crystal. The application of a dc bias field enhanced the FR stability under compression. The large-signal, dc biased, 33-mode electromechanical response was measured under mechanical compressions similar to those used in sound projectors. The remarkable small-signal electromechanical properties are in a good agreement with the large-signal response. The crystal response to thermal, electrical, and mechanical variable is discussed in terms of high-coupling single crystal models.

AB Background: Declining rates of hospitalizations occurred shortly after the availability of highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART). However, trends in the late HAART era are less defined, and data on the impact of CD4 counts and HAART use on hospitalizations are needed.
Methods: We evaluated hospitalization rates from 1999 to 2007 among HIV-infected persons enrolled in a large US military cohort. Poisson regression was used to compare hospitalization rates per year and to examine factors associated with hospitalization.
Results: Of the 2429 participants, 822 (34%) were hospitalized at least once with 1770 separate hospital admissions. The rate of hospitalizations (137 per 1000 person-years) was constant over the study period [relative rate (RR) 1.00 per year change, 95% confidence interval: 0.98 to 1.02]. The hospitalization rates due to skin infections (RR: 1.50, P = 0.02), methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus (RR: 3.19, P = 0.03), liver disease (RR: 1.71, P = 0.04), and surgery (RR: 1.17, P = 0.04) significantly increased over time, whereas psychological causes (RR: 0.60, P < 0.01) and trauma (RR: 0.54, P < 0.01) decreased. In the multivariate model, higher nadir CD4 (RR: 0.92 per 50 cells, P < 0.01) and higher proximal CD4 counts (RR of 0.71 for 350-499 vs. <350 cells/mm(3) and RR 0.67 for >= 500 vs. <350 cells/mm3, both P < 0.01) were associated with lower risk of hospitalization. Risk of hospitalization was constant for proximal CD4 levels above 350 (RR: 0.94 P = 0.51, CD4 >= 500 vs. 350-499). HAART was associated with a reduced risk of hospitalization among those with a CD4,350 (RR: 0.72, P = 0.02) but had smaller estimated and nonsignificant effects at higher CD4 levels (RR: 0.81, P = 0.33 and 1.06, P = 0.71 for CD4 <350-499 and >= 500, respectively).
Conclusions: Hospitalizations continue to occur at high rates among HIV-infected persons with increasing rates for skin infections, methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus, liver disease, and surgeries. Factors associated with a reduced risk of hospitalization include CD4 counts >350 cells per cubic millimeter and HAART use among patients with a CD4 count <350 cells per cubic millimeter.

AB This paper describes a spacecraft trajectory planning algorithm based on the calculus of variations which can solve 6-degree-of-freedom spacecraft docking and proximity operations problems. The design of a cost functional which trades off fuel use, obstacle clearance distance, and arrival time is discussed. The nonlinear orbital dynamic equations are treated as dynamic constraints. The Euler-Lagrange equations for this functional are derived, as is the Pontryagin criteria for the optimal control input given realistic saturating on-off thrusters. The indirect collocation method is chosen to solve the attendant boundary-value problem for its lack of sensitivity to initial conditions; continuation is used to further improve the algorithm's robustness. The manipulation of the Euler-Lagrange equations and the transversality condition into a form suitable for use with existing collocation codes is discussed. Results are shown for an end-to-end docking maneuver with a tumbling satellite.

AB Local recombination properties of threading screw and edge dislocations in 4H-SiC epitaxial layers have been studied using electron beam induced current (EBIC). The minority carrier diffusion length in the vicinity of dislocations was found to vary with dislocation type. Screw dislocations had a more pronounced impact on diffusion length than the edge dislocations, evidencing stronger recombination activity. Temperature dependence of EBIC contrast of dislocations suggests that their recombination activity is controlled by deep energy levels in the vicinity of dislocation cores. This paper shows that the type of dislocation (screw or edge) can be identified from analysis of EBIC contrast. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3448230]

AB The effects of 2 MeV proton irradiation on a set of four long-wave infrared type II superlattice photodiodes with various structures were studied. Changes were monitored in operating bias, quantum efficiency (QE), and dark current. Shifts in operating bias indicate that irradiation causes the superlattices to become more p-type, and decreases in QE are found to be consistent with a reduction in carrier lifetime. Leakage currents remain lower in graded-gap diodes at all fluences.

AB Shallow-etch mesa isolation (SEMI) of graded-bandgap "W''-structured type II superlattice (GGW) infrared photodiodes provides a powerful means for reducing excess dark currents due to surface and bulk junction related processes, and it is particularly well suited for focal-plane array fabrication. In the n-on-p GGW photodiode structure the energy gap is increased in a series of steps from that of the lightly p-type infrared-absorbing region to a value typically two to three times larger. The wider gap levels off about 10 nm short of the doping-defined junction, and continues for another 0.25 mu m into the heavily n-doped cathode before the structure is terminated by an n(+)-doped InAs top cap layer. The increased bandgap in the high-field region near the junction helps to strongly suppress both bulk tunneling and generation-recombination (G-R) current by imposing a much larger tunneling barrier and exponentially lowering the intrinsic carrier concentration. The SEMI approach takes further advantage of the graded structure by exposing only the widest-gap layers on etched surfaces. This lowers surface recombination and trap-assisted tunneling in much the same way as the GGW suppresses these processes in the bulk. Using SEMI, individual photodiodes are defined using a shallow etch that typically terminates only 10 nm to 20 nm past the junction, which is sufficient to isolate neighboring pixels while leaving the narrow-gap absorber layer buried 100 nm to 200 nm below the surface. This provides for separate optimization of the photodiode's electrical and optical area. The area of the junction can be reduced to a fraction of that of the pixel, lowering bulk junction current, while maintaining 100% optical fill factor with the undisturbed absorber layer. Finally, with the elimination of deep, high-aspect-ratio trenches, SEMI simplifies array fabrication. We report herein results from SEMI-processed GGW devices, including large-area discrete photodiodes, mini-arrays, and a focal-plane array. Current-voltage data show strong suppression of side-wall leakage relative to that for more deeply etched devices, as well as scaling of dark current with junction area without loss of quantum efficiency.

AB Fretting fatigue is a random process that continues to be a major source of damage associated with the failure of aircraft gas turbine engine components. Fretting fatigue is dominated by the fatigue crack growth phase and is strongly dependent on the magnitude of the stress values in the contact region. These stress values often have the most influence on small cracks where traditional long-crack fracture mechanics may not apply. A number of random variables can be used to model the uncertainty associated with the fatigue crack growth process. However, these variables can often be reduced to a few primary random variables related to the size and location of the initial crack, variability associated with applied stress and crack growth life models, and uncertainty in the quality and frequency of nondeterministic inspections. In this paper, an approach is presented for estimating the risk reduction associated with the nondestructive inspection of aircraft engine components subjected to fretting fatigue. Contact stress values in the blade attachment region are estimated using a fine mesh finite element model coupled with a singular integral equation solver and combined with bulk stress values to obtain the total stress gradient at the edge of contact. This stress gradient is applied to the crack growth life prediction of a mode I fretting fatigue crack. A probabilistic model of the fretting process is formulated and calibrated using failure data from an existing engine fleet. The resulting calibrated model is used to quantify the influence of inspection on the probability of fracture of an actual military engine disk under real life loading conditions. The results can be applied to quantitative risk predictions of gas turbine engine components subjected to fretting fatigue.

AB Previous analytical work on stability of fluid-conveying pipes assumed a uniform velocity profile for the conveyed fluid. In real fluid flows, the presence of viscosity leads to a sheared region near the wall. Earlier studies correctly note that viscous forces do not affect the dynamics of the system since these forces are balanced by pressure drop in the conveyed fluid. Although viscous shear has not been ignored in these studies, a uniform velocity profile assumes that the sheared region is infinitely thin. Prior analysis was extended to account for a fully developed non-uniform profile such as would be encountered in real fluid flows. A modified, highly tractable equation of motion was derived, which includes a single additional parameter to account for the true momentum of the fluid. This empirical parameter was determined by numerical analysis over the Reynolds number range of interest. The stability of cantilever pipes conveying fluid with two types of non-uniform velocity profile was assessed. In the first case, the profile was a function of Reynolds number and transition to turbulence occurred before the onset of flutter instability. This case had stability properties similar to the uniform velocity case except in specific narrow regions of the parameter space. The second case required that the Reynolds number be such that the flow was always laminar. For this case, lower fluid velocity was required to achieve instability, and the oscillation frequency at instability was considerably lower over much of the parameter space, compared to the uniform case.

TI Lyapunov-Based Thrusters' Selection for Spacecraft Control: Analysis and
Experimentation
SO JOURNAL OF GUIDANCE CONTROL AND DYNAMICS
LA English
DT Article
ID SYSTEMS; MOTION
AB This paper introduces a method for spacecraft rotation and translation control by on off thrusters with guaranteed Lyapunov-stable tracking of linear dynamic models. In particular, the proposed control method switches on, at each time step, only those thrusters needed to maintain stability. Furthermore, the strategy allocates the configuration so that the minimum number of actuators is used. One of the benefits of the proposed method is that it substitutes both the thruster mapping and the pulse modulation algorithms typically used for real-time allocation of the firing thrusters and for determining the duration of the firing. The proposed approach reduces the computational burden of the onboard computer versus the use of classical thruster mapping algorithms, which typically involve iterative matrix operations. The paper presents analytical demonstrations, numerical simulations on a six-degree-of-freedom spacecraft, and experimental tests on a hardware-in-the-loop three-degree-of-freedom spacecraft simulator floating over air pads on a flat floor. The method proves to be effective and easy to implement in real time.

AB Background. First isolated in the Netherlands in 1955 during an outbreak of acute respiratory disease (ARD) among military recruits, human adenovirus 14 (HAdV-14) has historically been considered rare. With no precedent of circulation in North America, HAdV-14 has been isolated from military and civilian cases of ARD of variable severity since 2003 in the United States.
Methods. Ninety-nine isolates from military and civilian cases from different geographic locations and circulation periods were characterized by restriction enzyme analysis of viral DNA and select gene sequencing.
Results. All examined viruses were found to be identical and to belong to a new genome type designated "HAdV-14p1" (formerly known as "14a"). Comparative alignments of E1A, hexon, and fiber gene sequences with other subspecies B2 HAdVs suggest that HAdV-14p1, like the closely related HAdV-11a, arose from recombination among similar HAdV-11 and HAdV-14 ancestral strains. A deletion of 2 amino acids in the knob region of the fiber protein is the only identified unique characteristic of HAdV-14p1.
Conclusion. The current geographic distribution of HAdV-14p1 involves at least 15 states in the Unites States. The role of the fiber mutations in the recent emergence of HAdV-14p1 ARD in North America warrants further study.

AB The mechanical response of a thermally cured Ag nano-ink comprising silver nanoparticles of 3-7 nm diameter was evaluated and compared to a fully dense electron-beam-evaporated Ag film. Curing the nano-ink for 60 min at 250 degrees C resulted in a 78% dense structure. Nanoindentation of the partially dense nano-ink yielded Young's modulus, E(np) = 54.8 +/- 2.2 GPa, consistent with theoretical models predicting the modulus of metallic foams and hardness of H = 1.37 +/- 0.08 GPa. Cross-sectional analysis of individual indents was also performed via focused ion beam milling.

AB Previous studies have derived patterns by measuring compliance with preestablished dietary guidance or empirical methods, such as principal components analysis (PCA). Our objective was to examine colorectal cancer risk associated with patterns identified by both methods. The study included 431 incident colorectal cancer cases (225 men, 206 women) and 726 healthy controls (330 men, 396 women) participating in a population-based, case-control study. PCA identified sex-specific dietary patterns and the Healthy Eating Index-2005 (HEI-05) assessed adherence to the 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. A fruits and vegetables pattern and a meat, potatoes, and refined grains pattern were identified among men and women; a third pattern (alcohol and sweetened beverages) was identified in men. The fruits and vegetables pattern was inversely associated with risk among men [odds ratio (OR) = 0.38, 95% Cl = 0.21-0.69 for the highest compared with the lowest quartile] and women (OR = 0.35, 95% Cl = 0.19-0.65). The meat, potatoes, and refined grains pattern was positively associated with risk in women (OR = 2.20, 95% Cl = 1.08-4.50) and there was a suggestion of a positive association among men (OR = 1.56, 95% Cl = 0.84-2.90; P-trend = 0.070). Men and women with greater HE)05 scores had a significantly reduced risk of colorectal cancer (OR = 0.56, 95% Cl = 0.31-0.99; OR = 0.44, 95% Cl = 0.24-0.77, respectively). Following the Dietary Guidelines or a dietary pattern lower in meat, potatoes, high fat, and refined foods and higher in fruits and vegetables may reduce colorectal cancer risk. J. Nutr. 140: 1267-1273, 2010.

AB A new oxygen reduction electrocatalyst for proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) is synthesized by dispersing nanoscale Pt on a nanoscale tantalum oxyphosphate phase on a Vulcan carbon support, designated as Pt/[TaOPO4/VC]. Electrocatalytic activity is measured by the thin-film rotating disk electrode methodology in 0.1 M HClO4 electrolyte. The Pd[TaOPO4/VC] electrocatalyst has a high mass-specific activity of 0.46 A mg(Pt)(-1) compared to 0.20 A mg(Pt)(-1) for a Pt/Vulcan carbon standard and has met the 2015 DOE goal of 0.44 A mg(Pt)(-1). This tantalum-containing electrocatalyst is twice as durable as the standard Pt/carbon in terms of its loss of Pt electrochemical surface area after aggressive electrochemical cycling.

AB A hydrogen-powered solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), with a Pt cathode and a Ni anode, is modeled with a kinetic Monte Carlo (KMC) simulation technique. A series of reversible elementary steps are adopted from experiments and theories for simulating the oxygen reduction reaction near the cathode-electrolyte interface and the hydrogen-oxidation mechanism near the anode-electrolyte interface. By studying the change in the ionic current density, the sensitivity of the kinetic parameters is analyzed, and the influence of various operating conditions and different material properties are also explored. The results show that the dominant elementary process is the oxygen incorporation into the yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) electrolyte at the cathode. Increasing the applied bias voltage, operating temperature, and relative permittivity of the YSZ, but reducing the thickness of the YSZ enhance the ionic current density and improve the efficiency of the SOFC.

AB This paper introduces a conformal transform of an acoustic domain under a one-dimensional, rough sea surface onto a domain with a flat top. This non-perturbative transform can include many hundreds of wavelengths of the surface variation. The resulting two-dimensional, flat-topped domain allows direct application of any existing, acoustic propagation model of the Helmholtz or wave equation using transformed sound speeds. Such a transform-model combination applies where the surface particle velocity is much slower than sound speed, such that the boundary motion can be neglected. Once the acoustic field is computed, the bijective (one-to-one and onto) mapping permits the field interpolation in terms of the original coordinates. The Bergstroumlm method for inverse Riemann maps determines the transform by iterated solution of an integral equation for a surface matching term. Rough sea surface forward scatter test cases provide verification of the method using a particular parabolic equation model of the Helmholtz equation. [DOI: 10.1121/1.3445783]

AB Fully nonlinear mesoscale model simulations are used to investigate the momentum fluxes of gravity waves that emerge at a "far-field" height of 6 km from steady unsheared flow over both an axisymmetric and elliptical obstacle for nondimensional mountain heights (h) over cap (m) = Fr(-1) in the range 0.1-5, where Fr is the surface Froude number. Fourier- and Hilbert-transform diagnostics of model output yield local estimates of phase-averaged momentum flux, while area integrals of momentum flux quantify the amount of surface pressure drag that translates into far-field gravity waves, referred to here as the "wave drag" component. Estimates of surface and wave drag are compared to parameterization predictions and theory. Surface dynamics transition from linear to high-drag (wave breaking) states at critical inverse Froude numbers Fr(c)(-1) predicted to within 10% by transform relations. Wave drag peaks at Fr(c)(-1) < <(h)over cap>(m) less than or similar to 2, where for the elliptical obstacle both surface and wave drag vacillate owing to cyclical buildup and breakdown of waves. For the axisymmetric obstacle, this occurs only at (h) over cap (m) = 1.2. At (h) over cap (m) greater than or similar to 2-3 vacillation abates and normalized pressure drag assumes a common normalized form for both obstacles that varies approximately as (h) over cap (-1.3)(m). Wave drag in this range asymptotes to a constant absolute value that, despite its theoretical shortcomings, is predicted to within 10%-40% by an analytical relation based on linear clipped-obstacle drag for a Sheppard-based prediction of dividing streamline height. Constant wave drag at (h) over cap (m) similar to 2-5 arises despite large variations with (h) over cap (m) in the three-dimensional morphology of the local wave momentum fluxes. Specific implications of these results for the parameterization of subgrid-scale orographic drag in global climate and weather models are discussed.

WAVE; GRAVITY-WAVES; AIRCRAFT; FLOW; STRATOSPHERE; EVOLUTION; BREAKING
AB Characteristics of turbulence in the lower and middle troposphere over Owens Valley have been examined using aircraft in situ measurements obtained from the Terrain-Induced Rotor Experiment. The two events analyzed in this study are characterized by a deep turbulent layer from the valley floor up to the midtroposphere associated with the interaction between trapped waves and an elevated shear layer. Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability develops above the mountaintop level and often along the wave crests where the Richardson number is reduced. The turbulence induced by KH instability is characterized by a progressive downscale energy cascade, a well-defined inertial subrange up to 1 km, and large eddies with vertical to horizontal aspect ratios less than unity. The turbulence below the mountaintop level is largely shear induced, associated with wave steepening and breaking, and is more isotropic. Evaluation of structure functions indicates that while the turbulence energy cascade is predominately downscale, upscale energy transfer exists with horizontal scales from a few hundred meters to a few kilometers because of the transient energy dispersion of large eddies generated by KH instability and gravity wave steepening or breaking.

TI The Use of Temporary Vascular Shunts in Military Extremity Wounds: A
Preliminary Outcome Analysis With 2-Year Follow-Up

DT Article
DE Temporary vascular shunt; Limb salvage; Extremity vascular injury

MANAGEMENT; INJURIES; TRAUMA; ADJUNCT; REPAIR
AB Background: The use of temporary vascular shunts (TVS)s in the management of wartime extremity vascular injuries has received an increasing amount of attention. However, the overall impact of this adjunct remains incompletely defined. The objective of this study is to characterize outcomes of those patients who suffered wartime extremity vascular injuries managed with TVSs.
Methods: This is a retrospective review of the Navy and Marine Corps Combat Trauma Registry examining peripheral vascular injuries treated during the military conflicts in the Middle East. Patient demographics, injury severity score, mechanism of injury, and vessels injured were recorded. Operative reports were reviewed for use of TVSs, type of definitive repair, the need for amputation, and survival.
Results: Eighty patients were included. Forty-six (57%) had TVSs placed and 34 (43%) underwent repair at initial presentation. The mean injury severity score for the TVS group and the non-TVS groups were 15.0 +/- 5.05 and 12.9 +/- 10.18, respectively, (p = 0.229). There were a total of 13 amputations, 6 (13%) in the TVS group and 7 (21%) in the non-TVS group (p = 0.38). There was no difference in amputation rates between either group. There were no recorded mortalities in either group. Median patient follow-up was 24.5 months (range, 3-48 months).
Conclusions: This study demonstrates the importance and utility of TVSs in the management of wartime extremity vascular injury. When used to restore perfusion to an injured extremity, there seems to be no adverse effects or overall increase in limb loss rates and therefore a useful adjunct in the surgery for limb salvage.

ID US ARMY SOLDIERS; ACINETOBACTER-BAUMANNII; COLONIZATION; CASUALTIES;
RECOVERY; OUTBREAK; TRAUMA
AB Background: Infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms (MDROs), including Acinetobacter, have complicated the care of military personnel injured in Operations Iraqi and Enduring Freedom. Cumulative data suggest that nosocomial transmission of MDROs in deployed medical treatment facilities (MTFs) has contributed to these infections. A 2008 review of deployed MTFs identified multiple factors impeding the performance of infection prevention and control (IC) practices. In response, efforts to emphasize IC basics, improve expertise, and better track MDRO colonization were pursued.
Methods: Efforts to increase awareness and enhance IC in deployed MTFs were focused on educating leaders and deploying personnel, producing deployed IC resources, and standardizing level IV and V admission screening for MDRO colonization. A repeat mission in 2009 reviewed interval progress.
Results: Increased awareness and the need for emphasis on basic IC practice, including hand hygiene, use of transmission-based (isolation) precautions, and cohorting of patients, were imparted to leaders and deploying personnel through briefings, presentations, and an All Army Activities message. Enhancement of IC expertise was implemented through increased standardization of IC practice, establishment of a predeployment IC short course, an IC teleconsultation service, and dedicated Internet resources. Standardization of admission colonization screening of personnel evacuated from the combat theater was established to better define and respond to the MDRO problem. A repeat review of the deployed MTFs found overall improvement in IC practice, including clear command emphasis in the Iraqi theater of operations.
Conclusions: Maintaining a strong IC effort in the deployed setting, even in a stabilized operational environment, is difficult. Use of innovative strategies to enhance expertise and practice were implemented to reduce MDRO infections.

AB Methods. We performed a systematic review to acquire all published and unpublished data on TST conversion in long-term civilian and military travelers from 1990 to June 2008. Point estimates and confidence intervals (CIs) of the incidence of TST conversion were combined in a random effects model and assessed for heterogeneity.
Results. The cumulative risk with CI for LTBI as measured by TST conversion was 2.0% (99% CI: 1.6%-2.4%). There was a marked heterogeneity (chi 2 heterogeneity statistic, p < 0.0001) which could not be explained by evaluable study characteristics. When stratifying by military and civilian studies, the cumulative risk estimate was 2.0% (99% CI: 1.6-2.4) for military and 2.3% (99% CI: 2.1-2.5) for civilian studies.
Conclusion. The overall cumulative incidence of 2.0% is what could be expected to occur among the local population in many developing-country settings, though TST conversion likely overestimates the risk of TB infection because of the low positive predictive value (PPV) of the TST in low-prevalence populations such as travelers. To maximize the PPV of a screening test for LTBI, a targeted testing strategy for long-term military and civilian travelers is recommended, based on exposures known to increase the risk of TB. Studies to better define higher risk groups, activities, and locations are needed.

AB Si-based nanowires with high aspect ratios have been fabricated using an inductively coupled plasma reactive ion etching (ICP-RIE) with a continuous processing gas mixture of fluorine-based SF(6):C(4)F(8) combined with a thermal oxidation technique. The subsequent thermal oxidation further reduced the nanowire diameter utilizing the self-limiting oxidation effect below the lithographic dimensions. Transmission electron microscopy analysis of the completed nanostructures revealed the total oxide thickness and the consumption of the Si core which determines the inner nanowire diameter. The final dimensions of the inner Si nanowire are about 600 nm tall and less than 25 nm wide using top-down processing techniques. (C) 2010 American Vacuum Society. [DOI: 10.1116/1.3455498]

This paper describes our concept of such a document, and the design of tools for authoring (Forge) and visualization/analysis (Panorama). They are platform-independent applications written in Java, and developed in Eclipse(1) using its Rich Client Platform (RCP) framework. Both applications operate on PDF files with links to XML files that de. ne the media type, location, and action to be performed. We also briefly cite the challenges posed by the potentially large size of interactive publications, the need for evaluating their value to improved comprehension and learning, and the need for their long-term preservation by the National Library of Medicine and other libraries.

AB Background/Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the effects of fluence, pulse stacking, and multiple passes on the depth of injury caused by a fractionated Er:YAG laser in an in vivo farm pig model.
Design/Material/Methods: A fractionated 2,940nm Er:YAG laser (Pixel, Alma Lasers, Caesarea, Israel) was applied to the flank skin of a Yorkshire cross pig. The 11 mm x 11 mm handpiece was comprised of either 49 or 81 microbeams (200 pm diameter), depending on the tip configuration. There were six different parameter sets divided according to total energy per pulse (150, 285, and 500 mJ) and tip type (81 or 49 microbeams per 11 mm x 11 mm macrospot). Each of these six groups was subdivided according to number of stacked pulses (1, 3, and 6) and number of passes (1, 3, and 6). This resulted in a total of 36 treatment parameters.
Results: With the 49 microbeam configuration, a single pulse resulted in partial epidermal ablation at 150 mJ, complete epidermal ablation at 285 mJ and partial dermal ablation at 500 mJ to a depth of 90 pm. Stacking the pulses resulted in a significant increase in ablation with each fluence with the maximal depth of ablation measured at 140 pm after six stacked pulses at 500 mJ. Increasing the number of passes did not result in a significant increase in ablative depth, but did create a larger surface area of ablation. Residual thermal damage (RTD) was minimal and remained between 10 and 20 mu m.
Conclusions: The fractionated Er:YAG laser exhibited some of the same tissue interactions as its fully ablative counterparts. An increase in fluence resulted in an increase in ablative depth with minimal RTD. Additionally, RTD was unaffected by pulse stacking or by additional passes. Differences were that pulse stacking appeared to yield a more rapid decrease in ablation efficiency and additional passes did not seem to increase the depth of ablation. Lasers Surg.

TI The Backseat Control Architecture for Autonomous Robotic Vehicles: A
Case Study with the Iver2 AUV
SO MARINE TECHNOLOGY SOCIETY JOURNAL
LA English
DT Article
DE Autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV); Marine robotics; Autonomy
AB In this paper, an innovative hybrid control architecture for real-time control of autonomous robotic vehicles is described as well as its implementation on a commercially available autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV). This architecture has two major components, a behavior-based intelligent autonomous controller and an interface to a classical dynamic controller that is responsible for real-time dynamic control of the vehicle given the decisions of the intelligent controller over the decision state space (e.g., vehicle course, speed, and depth). The driving force behind the development of this architecture was a desire to make autonomy software development for underwater vehicles independent from the dynamic control specifics of any given vehicle. The resulting software portability allows significant code reuse and frees autonomy software developers from being tied to a particular vehicle manufacturer's autonomy software and support as long as the vehicle supports the required interface between the intelligent controller and the dynamic controller. This paper will describe in detail the components of the backseat driver architecture as implemented on the Iver2 underwater vehicle, provide several examples of its use, and discuss the future direction of the architecture.

ID EXTRACORPOREAL SHOCK-WAVE; THERAPY
AB The Combat Wound Initiative (CWI) program is a collaborative, multidisciplinary, and interservice public-private partnership that provides personalized, state-of-the-art, and complex wound care via targeted clinical and translational research. The CWI uses a bench-to-bedside approach to translational research, including the rapid development of a human extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) study in complex wounds after establishing the potential efficacy, biologic mechanisms, and safety of this treatment modality in a murine model. Additional clinical trials include the prospective use of clinical data, serum and wound biomarkers, and wound gene expression profiles to predict wound healing/failure and additional clinical patient outcomes following combat-related trauma. These clinical research data are analyzed using machine-based learning algorithms to develop predictive treatment models to guide clinical decision-making. Future CWI directions include additional clinical trials and study centers and the refinement and deployment of our genetically driven, personalized medicine initiative to provide patient-specific care across multiple medical disciplines, with an emphasis on combat casualty care.

AB Immunotherapy for cancer, which uses the body's immune system to fight the disease, is an increasingly active area of research. Successful therapies such as trastuzamab (Herceptin) for breast cancer and cytokine therapy for renal cell carcinoma and melanoma have validated the field as a viable area of investigation. However, the goal of developing an effective cancer vaccine has not yet been achieved. The military's Cancer Vaccine Development Program (CVDP) is collaborating with other military programs, along with civilian institutions, to advance scientific research surrounding cancer vaccines.

AB Background: A longitudinal cohort analysis of disease nonbattle injuries (DNBI) sustained by a large combat-deployed maneuver unit has not been performed. Methods: A descriptive analysis was undertaken to evaluate for DNBI casualty care statistics incurred by a U.S. Army Brigade Combat Team (BCT) during a counterinsurgency campaign of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Results: Of the 4,122 soldiers deployed, there were 1,324 DNBI with 5 (0.38%) deaths, 208 (15.7%) medical evacuations (MEDEVAC), and 1,111 (83.9%) returned to duty. The DNBI casualty rate for the BCT was 257.0/1,000 soldier combat-years. Females, compared with males, had a significantly increased incidence rate ratio for becoming a DNBI casualty 1.67 (95% CI 1.37, 2.04). Of 47 female soldiers receiving MEDEVAC 35 (74%) were for pregnancy-related issues. Musculoskeletal injuries (50.4%) and psychiatric disorders (23.3%) were the most common body systems involved with DNBI casualties. Among the BCT cohort the psychiatric DNBI casualty rate and suicide rate were 59.8 and 0.58 per 1,000 soldier combat-years. The BCT cohort incidence rates for common musculoskeletal injuries per 1,000 combat years were as follows: ankle sprain 15.3, anterior cruciate ligament rupture 3.3 and shoulder dislocation 1.2. Conclusions: Musculoskeletal injuries and psychiatric disorders accounted for 74% of the total DNBI casualties, and 43% of the DNBI casualties requiring subsequent MEDEVAC. The BCT cohort had a suicide rate nearly four times greater than previously reported, and selected musculoskeletal injury incidence rates were fivefold greater than the general population.

AB Stress and depression can adversely impact the performance of military personnel. Cognitive-behavioral (CBT) interventions for managing stress are efficacious in traditional face-to-face formats, but the Internet supports a broader reach of these programs. This study reports on the feasibility of using an Internet-based self-help stress-management intervention in military personnel. There were 142 officers/enlisted sailors at a Naval Medical Center who completed the program. Evaluation of the program titled "Stress Gym" was positive for the user interface, content, feasibility, and satisfaction. Positive evaluation was not influenced by rank/status, sex, or previous deployment. Stress ratings also decreased significantly while using the program. These data support Stress Gym as being an online CBT-based self-help intervention that is feasible to deploy, accepted by the intended end users, and demonstrates the intended goal of reducing stress.

The adopted approach constitutes a symbiosis of a climatological analysis during the Northern Hemisphere winter from 1979 to 2002 and a case study analysis of a distinct MJO event that occurred in January-February 1993. The former is designed to obtain the general characteristics observed during a composite MJO life cycle, while the latter is used to provide insight into the instantaneous mechanisms responsible for the observed composite evolution.
A primary component of the study involves the diagnosis of anomalous wave breaking activity in response to MJO forcing in the form of tropical convection and/or upper-level divergence. Wave breaking events are separated by their characteristic life cycles: LC1 (anticyclonic) and LC2 (cyclonic) events. Statistically significant anomalies in wave breaking activity are found to be prevalent during the composite MJO event. Furthermore, the dynamical distinction between LC1 and LC2 wave breaking is useful in that the two different characteristic life cycles exhibit significantly different anomalous behavior during the MJO.
Statistically significant variability is also identified in both the subtropical and extratropical flow and atmospheric blocking and surface cyclone frequency. These data, taken in conjunction with the observed evolution of the 1993 MJO event, provide a relatively coherent picture of the response of the atmosphere to MJO forcing. A schematic representation of the evolution is presented.

AB The characteristics of "target'' locations of tropospheric wind and temperature identified by a modified version of the ensemble transform Kalman filter (ETKF), in order to reduce 0-7-day forecast errors over North America, are explored from the perspective of a field program planner. Twenty cases of potential high-impact weather over the continent were investigated, using a 145-member ensemble comprising perturbations from NCEP, ECMWF, and the Canadian Meteorological Centre (CMC).
Multiple targets were found to exist in the midlatitude storm track. In half of the cases, distinctive targets could be traced upstream near Japan at lead times of 4-7 days. In these cases, the flow was predominantly zonal and a coherent Rossby wave packet was present over the northern Pacific Ocean. The targets at the longest lead times were often located within propagating areas of baroclinic energy conversion far upstream. As the lead time was reduced, these targets were found to diminish in importance, with downstream targets corresponding to a separate synoptic system gaining in prominence. This shift in optimal targets is sometimes consistent with the radiation of ageostrophic geopotential fluxes and transfer of eddy kinetic energy downstream, associated with downstream baroclinic development. Concurrently, multiple targets arise due to spurious long-distance correlations in the ETKF. The targets were least coherent in blocked flows, in which the ETKF is known to be least reliable. The effectiveness of targeting in the medium range requires evaluation, using data such as those collected during the winter phase of The Observing System Research and Predictability Experiment (THORPEX) Pacific Asian Regional Field Campaign (T-PARC) in 2009.

AB The efficacy of three different doses of sodium salicylate (SAL) in combination with one dose of N-acetylcysteine (NAC) to prevent noise-induced hearing loss was studied in chinchillas. After obtaining baseline-hearing thresholds, the chinchillas were randomly assigned to one of four treatment groups: three sets were injected intraperitoneally with 325 mg/kg NAC combined with 25, 50, or 75 mg/kg SAL, and a separate control group was injected with an equal volume of saline. Animals were injected twice daily for 2 days prior to and 1 hour before the noise exposure (6 hours to a 105-dB Standard Pressure Level octave band noise centered at 4 kHz). Immediate post-noise hearing thresholds were obtained followed by post-noise treatments at 1 hour then twice-daily for 2 days. Hearing tests continued at 1, 2, and 3 weeks post-noise, and immediately after the last hearing test, animals' cochleae were stained for hair cell counts. All the groups showed hearing improvement until week 2. However, at week 3, saline treated animals demonstrated a 17-33 dB SPL permanent threshold shift (PTS) across the test frequencies. Hearing loss was lowest in the 50 SAL/325 NAC mg/kg group (all frequencies, P<0.001), and although PTS was reduced in the 25 and 75 mg/kg SAL dosage groups compared to the saline group, only the 75 mg/kg SAL group was significantly different at all but 2 kHz frequency. Coupled with the hearing loss, outer hair cell (OHC) loss was maximal in the 4-8 kHz cochlear region of saline treated animals. However, there was a substantial reduction in the mean OHC loss of the NAC plus 50 or 75 mg/kg (but not the 25 mg/kg) SAL groups. These findings suggest that SAL in combination with NAC is effective in reducing noise damage to the cochlea, but SAL has a relatively narrow therapeutic dosing window.

AB A new spectroscopic technique for the measurement of the sizes of hard X-ray sources produced by the irradiation of solid-density targets by intense laser radiation is discussed. The technique is based on the source broadening of K shell spectral lines from targets irradiated by intense picosecond laser pulses. The spectra are recorded by a modified Cauchois type spectrometer, where the detector is placed far behind the Rowland circle where source broadening dominates instrumental resolution. The laser irradiation with focused intensity greater than 10(18) W/cm(2) produces relativistic electrons that propagate from the focal spot into the surrounding target material with mm range. The energetic electrons produce 1 s electron ionization and K shell radiation with picosecond duration that can be utilized for transient radiography of dense objects including evolving dense plasmas. However, the hard X-ray source has mm lateral size when extended targets are utilized while a much smaller source size (of order 10 mu m) is necessary for high-resolution point projection radiography. The lateral source size can be greatly reduced by using targets with limited aspect to the radiography object such as thin foils and wires, but the brightness of these sources is greatly reduced compared to thick planar targets. Studies indicate that the electron range and source size can also be reduced by utilizing an electrically resistive target material such as teflon. In this case the electron propagation from the focal spot is inhibited by a weak return current and incomplete space-charge neutralization. These experimental results are important not only for producing a small hard X-ray source for picosecond radiography but also for reducing the lateral propagation of energetic electrons that can be detrimental to fast-ignition fusion.

AB In order to study the feasibility of power scaling in resonantly-pumped Er-doped lasers, the fractional heat loads of several laser materials were measured using direct thermocouple calorimetry under low-power illumination with similar to 1550 nm light. A sample of 2% Er:YAG exhibited heat loads (relative to the absorbed power) of less than 5.4%, while samples of 1.1% Er-doped fluorophosphate glasses showed similar results, with heat loads of less than 5.3%. A fluorophosphate glass codoped with 2.2% Er and 2.5% Yb showed much higher heat loads of 11-14%, and samples of singly Er-doped and Er/Yb-codoped phosphate glasses both showed even higher heat loads in excess of 17%.

AB Despite advances in the understanding of anterior shoulder instability, failure rates after open and arthroscopic surgery have been reported to be as high as 30%. In general, a successful operative outcome for patients with shoulder instability requires the surgeon to perform a complete preoperative evaluation, a thorough diagnostic arthroscopy to evaluate for concomitant co-pathology, and implement an effective postoperative therapy program tailored to the repair strategy. In addition to the Bankart lesion, the treating surgeon must be aware of other co-pathologies, such as the HAGL lesion, ALPSA lesion, and SLAP tears, that can occur in concert with capsular pathology and present as potential barriers to a successful outcome. This article focuses specifically on the pearls and pitfalls that are important to recognize in the preoperative workup, intraoperative evaluation, and arthroscopic surgery to optimize surgical outcomes for anterior instability.

AB Objectives: To determine if an inverse association exits between latitude, ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiance and incidence rates of pancreatic cancer worldwide.
Methods: Multiple linear regression was used to investigate the relationship and between UVB irradiance incidence rates of pancreatic cancer and while controlling for cigarette, alcohol and sugar consumption, and proportion overweight. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH) D] levels were estimated, and their association with incidence rates also was analyzed.
Results: Incidence rates were higher at higher latitudes (R(2) for latitude for men, 0.51; P < 0.001; R(2) for latitude for women, 0.32; P < 0.001). Ultraviolet B irradiance also was independently inversely associated with incidence in men (P < 0.01) and women (P = 0.02). Alcohol (P < 0.0001) and cigarette (P <= 0.01) consumption were positively associated with incidence in men (R(2) for overall model for men, 0.76; P < 0.0001). Alcohol (P < 0.0001) and sugar (P = 0.001) consumption were positively associated with incidence rates in women (R(2) for overall model for women, 0.64; P < 0.0001). Incidence rates were half as high in countries with estimated serum 25(OH) >30 ng/mL (75 nmol/L) than in those with <= 30 ng/mL.
Conclusions: Countries with lower UVB irradiance had higher incidence rates of pancreatic cancer in both hemispheres, with occasional exceptions.

AB This work describes a simple method for generating signals conforming to a stationary random process for which the practitioner specifies both the power spectral density function and the marginal probability density function. The general approach is to first create a Gaussian random process with the appropriate spectral density and then apply a memoryless nonlinear transformation to achieve the desired marginal density. The transformation is not specified a priori but rather is simulated via an iterative "shuffling" procedure. The method is very simple to implement and yields results that are comparable to some of the more complicated methods. Published by Elsevier Ltd

AB Background: For decades, anabolic-androgenic steroids have been abused to enhance muscle growth. The harm inflicted by these compounds is well documented. Objective: The authors investigated and report on a case in which a male patient self-prescribed some newer dietary supplements, about which less is known. Method: The authors report on a case of hepatitis and aggressive personality changes in a 31-year-old man taking purported prohormone agent SUS500 and other, newer supplements. Results: Diagnosis was based on history, mental status exam, and laboratory findings. With discontinuation of all supplements and supportive care, the patient's personality changes resolved, and normal liver function returned. Conclusion: The authors conclude that newer anabolic supplements may cause some of the same side effects as traditional steroid hormones. (Psychosomatics 2010; 51:340-344)

AB We illustrate the construction of Bayesian D-optimal designs for nonlinear models and compare the relative efficiency of standard designs with these designs for several models and prior distributions on the parameters. Through a relative efficiency analysis, we show that standard designs can perform well in situations where the nonlinear model is intrinsically linear. However, if the model is nonlinear and its expectation function cannot be linearized by simple transformations, the nonlinear optimal design is considerably more efficient than the standard design.

AB Recent observational and theoretical studies of the global properties of small-scale atmospheric gravity waves have highlighted the global effects of these waves on the circulation from the surface to the middle atmosphere. The effects of gravity waves on the large-scale circulation have long been treated via parametrizations in both climate and weather-forecasting applications. In these parametrizations, key parameters describe the global distributions of gravity-wave momentum flux, wavelengths and frequencies. Until recently, global observations could not define the required parameters because the waves are small in scale and intermittent in occurrence. Recent satellite and other global datasets with improved resolution, along with innovative analysis methods, are now providing constraints for the parametrizations that can improve the treatment of these waves in climate-prediction models. Research using very-high-resolution global models has also recently demonstrated the capability to resolve gravity waves and their circulation effects, and when tested against observations these models show some very realistic properties. Here we review recent studies on gravity-wave effects in stratosphere-resolving climate models, recent observations and analysis methods that reveal global patterns in gravity-wave momentum fluxes and results of very-high-resolution model studies, and we outline some future research requirements to improve the treatment of these waves in climate simulations.

TI A test cassette for x-ray-exposure experiments at the National Ignition
Facility
SO REVIEW OF SCIENTIFIC INSTRUMENTS
LA English
DT Article
AB We present the design and operation of a test cassette for exposure of samples to radiation environments at the National Ignition Facility. The cassette provides options for square and round samples and exposure areas; the cassette provides for multiple levels of filtration on a single sample, which allows dynamic range in experiments. The samples had normal lines of sight to the x-ray source in order to have uniform x-ray illumination. The incident x-radiation onto the samples was determined by the choice of filter thicknesses and materials. The samples were held at precise locations, accurate to within a few hundred microns, in the target chamber in order to have a known fluence incident. In the cassette, the samples were held in place in such a way that a minimal "line contact" allows them to have the maximal mechanical response to the x-ray load. We present postshot images of the debris found on films used for filters, and pre- and postexposure specimens. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3470684]

These results are compared to frequencies and to modes shapes determined from the Rayleigh-Ritz method and a finite element analysis using COMSOL Accelerometers mounted at three locations on the plate, provide input for ME'Scope Modal Analysis Software to identify frequency peaks and modes shapes. Orthogonal polynomials, which meet free-free plate boundary conditions, are selected as the basis functions used in the Rayleigh-Ritz method. A Mindlin plate theory, adjusted for negligible transverse shear effects, is used in COMSOL. Frequencies and mode shapes for four plate configurations are presented, compared using each method, and indicate good agreement between the numerical, analytical and experimental results.

AB This study addresses the effects of dynamic strain turnover and antibiotic prophylaxis on rates of group A Streptococcus (GAS) antibiotic resistance and disease. The authors analyzed the strain distributions, disease rates and patterns of antibiotic resistance of 802 GAS isolates collected from 2002 through 2007. These samples were collected from patients with GAS infection symptoms at ten military facilities. Macrolide resistance peaked at 25% during 2004, due to the geographically widespread dominance of a single resistant strain (M75). The resistant strain was not retained regardless of local patterns of macrolide use, and resistance rates decreased upon replacement of M75 with macrolide-susceptible strains. Disease rates were similarly correlated with dominance of specific M types. Statistical analysis revealed temporal correlations between strain distributions at multiple locations. Only the most common strains yielded enough data at multiple sites for statistically significant comparison of temporal fluctuations in dominance, but these (including M44, M3, M18, M118 and M6) all yielded highly significant temporal correlations of 90% or greater on yearly scales. As expected given the complexity and variability of strain distributions on shorter time scales, analysis on a monthly scale yielded lower degrees of positive correlation (31-62%), but in this case all significant correlations were still positive. Shifts in antibiotic resistance profiles and disease rates at specific sites appear to be associated with strain replacements happening on larger scales, independent of antibiotic use at individual sites.

AB Background: Combat exposure has been reported as one of the strongest risk factors for postdeployment posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among military service members. Determining the impact of specific deployment-related exposures on the risk of developing PTSD has not been fully explored. Our study objective was to explore the relationship between specific combat exposures and other life experiences with postdeployment PTSD.
Methods: This study consisted of male Marines who completed a Recruit Assessment Program (RAP) survey during recruit training at the Marine Corps Recruit Depot in San Diego, California as well as a follow-up survey several years after recruit training. Study participants included those Marines who deployed to the current operations in Iraq or Afghanistan between the baseline and follow-up surveys. Multivariable logistic regression was performed to determine which significant exposures and experiences were associated with postdeployment PTSD.
Results: Of the 706 study participants, 10.8% screened positive for postdeployment PTSD. Those who reported feeling in great danger of death (odds ratio [OR] = 4.63, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 2.46-8.73), were shot or seriously injured (OR = 3.51, 95% CI: 1.58-7.77), saw someone wounded or killed (OR = 2.47, 95% CI: 1.08-5.67), and baseline (before recruit training) prior violence exposures (OR = 2.99, 95% CI: 1.46-6.10) were at increased odds for reporting PTSD symptoms. Number of deployments, number of close friends or relatives reported at follow-up, and enlisted pay grade were also significantly associated with postdeployment PTSD.
Conclusions: Combat exposures, specifically the threat of death, serious injury, and witnessing injury or death are significant risk factors for screening positive for postdeployment PTSD among male Marines as well as violence exposures prior to entering the Marine Corps, which are independent of future combat exposures. A thorough history of lifetime violence exposures should be pursued when considering a clinical diagnosis of PTSD.

AB Practical considerations for the injection and separation of nitroaromatic explosives in seawater sample matrices are discussed. The use of high surfactant concentrations and long electrokinetic injections allows for improved detection limits. Sensitivity was enhanced by two mechanisms, improved stacking at the detector-side of the sample plug and desorption of analyte from the capillary wall by surfactant-containing BGE from the inlet side of the sample plug. Calculated limits of detection (S/N = 3) for analytes prepared in pure seawater were 70-800 ppb with injection times varying from 5 to 100 s. Published by Elsevier B.V.

TI Doping PbSe nanocrystals: Predictions based on a trapped-dopant model
SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B
LA English
DT Article
ID SEMICONDUCTOR NANOCRYSTALS; CATION-EXCHANGE; NANOPARTICLES; POLAR; MN
AB We recently proposed that impurity doping in colloidally grown semiconductor nanocrystals is often controlled primarily by kinetics rather than by thermodynamics. In this "trapped-dopant" model the diffusion of an impurity through a nanocrystal is negligible at colloidal growth temperatures. Consequently, an impurity can only be incorporated as a dopant into a growing nanocrystal if it first adsorbs on the surface and is then overgrown. This surface adsorption can be complicated by a competing process: the binding of the impurity by surfactant molecules and other agents added to the growth solution to passivate the nanocrystal and control its growth. Here we use density-functional theory to study the interplay and outcome of these processes for the doping of PbSe nanocrystals by a number of candidate dopants (Mn, Co, Cl, In, Cd, Tl, etc.) in the presence of two widely used growth additives (oleic acid and hexadecylamine). The results suggest that successful doping requires making a trade-off between surface adsorption (which favors small dopants) and interior trapping (which favors large dopants). Moreover, the widely used growth agent oleic acid binds strongly to almost all dopants, suggesting that the standard growth procedure may require modification for successful doping to be realized.

AB Small anions in polar solvents are benchmark systems for fast vibrational energy relaxation (VER) due to the Coulombic effects that promote solute-solvent interactions. In order to investigate the effects of solute charge and solvent isotope effects on vibrational spectra and dynamics, infrared pump-probe studies have been used to determine VER (T(1)) times for the pseudohalide acids, XNCS and XN(3) (X = H, D), in protic solvents, H(2)O, D(2)O, CH(3)OH, and CD(3)OD. These results are compared with the well-studied azide and thiocyanate anions. Solvent isotope effects of the vibrational frequency shifts of azide and for VER rates of both azide and thiocyanate are similar to those for the hydro- and deutero-protonated species in water. VER times are longer for HN(3)/H(2)O, HN(3)/CH(3)OH, and DN(3)/CD(3)OD (T(1) = 2.3, 5.6, and 3.7 ps, respectively) than for the corresponding anions in solution (0.8, 3.0, and 2.1 ps), which is consistent with the idea that ions relax more quickly than neutrals. But the times measured for DN(3)/D(2)O, HNCS/H(2)O, and DNCS/D(2)O (T(1) = 1.2, 1.5, and 4.4 ps, respectively) are shorter than for the corresponding ions (2.3, 2.7, and 22.0 ps). Fast VER for DN(3) in D(2)O is attributed to strong coupling to nearby solvent bands and/or to Fermi resonances that promote intramolecular vibrational relaxation. For the HNCS and DNCS, the faster rates can be understood by recognizing that the charge displacements are similar to those for the anion.

AB Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) substrates are prepared by electroless Ag metallization and vapor phase Au deposition on nanostructured poly(chloro-p-xylylene) (nanoPPX) templates. These substrates exhibit quasi-periodic nanomorphology inherited from the underlying nanoPPX template, resulting in highly reproducible SERS signal (<10% spot-to-spot and substrate-to-substrate signal variation for Au/nanoPPX comprising contributions from substrate imperfections). These substrates are therefore chosen for developing respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) gene detection that requires high sensitivity, stability, and reproducibility of the Raman signal. Metallized nanoPPX films show enhancement factors of similar to 10(4) to 10(6) that strongly depend on the metallization route and can be optimized by controlling the metallization parameters. RSV gene detection is achieved by using a molecular probe (MP) consisting of a fluorescent moiety and a thiol linker for attachment to the SERS substrate. To detect multiple targets, MPs are designed in two colors (Hex and Cy5 dyes) utilizing a broad range of fluorophores. Our approach provides reproducible dual-mode detection (i.e., fluorescent and SERS) where the assay results generated by fluorescence and SERS are self-confirmatory and eliminate false positives.

TI Comparisons of upwelling and relaxation events in the Monterey Bay area

AB Observations show significant differences in circulation patterns of upwelling and relaxation events that occurred in the Monterey Bay during two Autonomous Ocean Sampling Network field experiments in August 2003 and 2006. During the 2003 experiment, circulation exhibited more typical patterns associated with upwelling/relaxation: the development of the southward flowing jet and pair of cyclonic (inside of the bay) and anticyclonic (outside of the bay) circulations during upwelling and the development of the northward flow along the coast during relaxation of winds. During the upwelling event of 2006, the southward flow was weaker and shallower than in 2003. The second relaxation event of 2006 was significantly different from the first relaxation event of 2006 and the relaxation event of 2003: a southward flow was present along the entrance to the bay and this southward flow penetrated into the subsurface up to around 50 m at the mooring location. Two reasons for the observed differences in upwelling and relaxation events of 2003 and 2006 are identified in the paper: weaker winds in August 2006 than in August 2003 and strong positive sea surface height anomalies propagating poleward along the coast during 2006. The 2003 field program included an extensive sampling of the bay and surrounding areas with a fleet of underwater gliders, while during 2006 program, the extensive sampling was conducted in the area of upwelling center to the north of the Monterey Bay. During the 2003 field program, the Monterey Bay model was able to reproduce observed surface and subsurface features with assimilation of glider observations. However, during the 2006 field program, the assimilation of glider data from the upwelling center to the north of the Monterey Bay had minimal impact on model simulations of observed features to the south of the upwelling center.

amorphous polycarbonate
SO JOURNAL OF NANOPHOTONICS

ID METAMATERIALS; LIGHT
AB Experiments were conducted to demonstrate a material with epsilon near zero (ENZ). Dimensions estimated by effective medium theory guided the fabrication of nanolaminate composites of silver and amorphous polycarbonate. This approach ensures that the ordinary component (not the extraordinary component) of the relative permittivity of a uniaxial material equals zero. The nanolaminates were characterized for optical properties using spectroscopic ellipsometry, reflectance, and transmittance. Simulations using both, a new scattering retrieval method, and an effective-medium approximation (EMA) were compared to the experimental results. These results indicate that nanolaminates should enable further exploration into the new optical phenomena predicted for ENZ materials.

TI Alignments, additivity, and signature inversion in odd-odd Ta-170: A
comprehensive high-spin study

ID ROTATIONAL BANDS; COINCIDENCE DATA; NUCLEI; TRIAXIALITY; ISOTOPES;

AB High-spin states (I less than or similar to 50h) of the odd-odd nucleus Ta-170 have been investigated with the Sn-124(V-51, 5n) reaction. The resolving power of Gammasphere has allowed for the observation of eleven rotational bands ( eight of which are new) and over 430 transitions (similar to 350 of which are new) in this nucleus. Many interband transitions have been observed such that the relative spins and excitation energies of the 11 bands have been established. This is an unusual circumstance in an odd-odd study. Configurations have been assigned to most of these bands based upon features such as alignment properties, band crossings, B(M1)/B(E2) ratios, and the additivity of Routhians. A systematic study of the frequency at which normal signature ordering occurs in the pi h(9/2)nu i(13/2) band has been performed and it is found that its trend is opposite to that observed in the pi h(11/2)nu i(13/2) bands. A possible interpretation of these trends is discussed based on a proton-neutron interaction.

AB We present measurements of the charge balance function, from the charged particles, for diverse pseudorapidity and transverse momentum ranges in Au + Au collisions at root S-NN = 200 GeV using the STAR detector at RHIC. We observe that the balance function is boost-invariant within the pseudorapidity coverage vertical bar-1.3, 1.3 vertical bar. The balance function properly scaled by the width of the observed pseudorapidity window does not depend on the position or size of the pseudorapidity window. This scaling property also holds for particles in different transverse momentum ranges. In addition, we find that the width of the balance function decreases monotonically with increasing transverse momentum for all centrality classes. (c) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB We compare mid-infrared emission-line properties from high-resolution Spitzer spectra of a hard X-ray (14-195 keV) selected sample of nearby (z < 0.05) active galactic nuclei (AGNs) detected by the Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) aboard Swift. The luminosity distribution for the mid-infrared emission lines, [O IV] 25.89 mu m, [Ne II] 12.81 mu m, [Ne III] 15.56 mu m, and [Ne v] 14.32/24.32 mu m, and hard X-ray continuum show no differences between Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 populations; however, six newly discovered BAT AGNs are under-luminous in [O IV], most likely the result of dust extinction in the host galaxy. The overall tightness of the mid-infrared correlations and BAT fluxes and luminosities suggests that the emission lines primarily arise in gas ionized by the AGNs. We also compare the mid-infrared emission lines in the BAT AGNs with those from published studies of ULIRGs, Palomar-Green quasars, star-forming galaxies, and LINERs. We find that the BAT AGN sample falls into a distinctive region when comparing the [Ne III]/[Ne II] and the [O IV]/[Ne III] ratios. These line ratios are lower in sources that have been previously classified in the mid-infrared/optical as AGNs than those found for the BAT AGNs, suggesting that, in our X-ray selected sample, the AGNs represent the main contribution to the observed line emission. These ratios represent a new emission line diagnostic for distinguishing between AGNs and star-forming galaxies.

AB We present detailed observations of the bright short-hard gamma-ray burst GRB 090510 made with the Gammaray Burst Monitor (GBM) and Large Area Telescope (LAT) on board the Fermi observatory. GRB 090510 is the first burst detected by the LAT that shows strong evidence for a deviation from a Band spectral fitting function during the prompt emission phase. The time-integrated spectrum is fit by the sum of a Band function with E-peak = 3.9 +/- 0.3 MeV, which is the highest yet measured, and a hard power-law component with photon index -1.62 +/- 0.03 that dominates the emission below approximate to 20 keV and above approximate to 100 MeV. The onset of the high-energy spectral component appears to be delayed by similar to 0.1 s with respect to the onset of a component well fit with a single Band function. A faint GBM pulse and a LAT photon are detected 0.5 s before the main pulse. During the prompt phase, the LAT detected a photon with energy 30.5(-2.6)(+5.8) GeV, the highest ever measured from a short GRB. Observation of this photon sets a minimum bulk outflow Lorentz factor, Gamma greater than or similar to 1200, using simple.. opacity arguments for this GRB at redshift z = 0.903 and a variability timescale on the order of tens of ms for the approximate to 100 keV-few MeV flux. Stricter high confidence estimates imply Gamma greater than or similar to 1000 and still require that the outflows powering short GRBs are at least as highly relativistic as those of long-duration GRBs. Implications of the temporal behavior and power-law shape of the additional component on synchrotron/synchrotron self-Compton, external-shock synchrotron, and hadronic models are considered.

ID ATMOSPHERE; MODELS; INDEX
AB We use global-average thermospheric total mass density, derived from the drag effect on the orbits of many space objects, to study the behavior of the thermosphere during the prolonged minimum in solar activity between cycles 23 and 24. During 2007-2009 thermospheric densities at a fiducial altitude of 400 km were the lowest observed in the 43-year database, and were anomalously low, by 10-30%, compared with climatologically expected levels. The density anomalies appear to have commenced before 2006, well before the cycle 23/24 minimum, and are larger than expected from enhanced thermospheric cooling by increasing concentrations of CO2. The height dependence of the mass density anomalies suggests that they are attributable to a combination of lower-than-expected exospheric temperature (-14 K) and reductions in the number density of atomic oxygen (-12%) and other species (-3%) near the base of the diffusive portion of the thermosphere.

AB In this work, microscopic particles in a fluid flow are manipulated using forces generated by a high power laser beam. The resulting manipulations on the particles are imaged using a microscope lens connected to a CCD camera. Differential forces on particles of varying physical and chemical composition have been measured. The goal is to measure the optical forces on a diverse range of particles and catalog the associated chemical and physical differences to understand which properties and mechanisms result in the largest force differentials. Using these measurements our aim is to better understand differences between similar microspheres in terms of size, morphology, or chemical composition. Particles of the same size, but different composition show large variations in optical pressure forces and are easily discernable in the present analytical system. In addition, we have demonstrated the ability to differentiate a 70 nm size difference between two NIST precision size standard polystyrene microspheres, corresponding to a 2.0 pN difference in optical force. Lastly, the instrument was used to measure differences between biological samples of similar size, demonstrating the ability to make precise analytical measurements on microorganism samples.

AB The dynamics of isooctylcyanobiphenyl (8*OCB) was characterized using dielectric and mechanical spectroscopies. This isomer of the liquid crystalline octylcyanobiphenyl (8OCB) vitrifies during cooling or on application of pressure, exhibiting the typical features of glass-forming liquids: non-Debye relaxation function, non-Arrhenius temperature dependence of the relaxation times, tau(alpha), a dynamic crossover at T similar to 1.6T(g). This crossover is evidenced by changes in the behavior of both the peak shape and the temperature dependence of tau(alpha). The primary relaxation time at the crossover, 2 ns at ambient pressure, is the smallest value reported to date for any molecular liquid or polymer. Interestingly, at all temperatures below this crossover, tau(alpha) and the dc conductivity remain coupled (i.e., conform to the Debye-Stokes-Einstein relation). Two secondary relaxations are observed in the glassy state, one of which is identified as the Johari-Goldstein process. Unlike the case for 8OCB, no liquid crystalline phase could be attained for 8*OCB, demonstrating that relatively small differences in chemical structure can effect substantial changes in the intermolecular potential.

AB The primary objective of the Scintillation and Tomography Receiver in Space (CITRIS) is to detect ionospheric irregularities from space at low latitude. For this purpose, the satellite receiver uses the UHF and S-Band transmissions of the ground network of Doppler Orbitography and Radiopositioning Integrated by Satellite (DORIS) beacons. CITRIS, developed at the Naval Research Laboratory, differs from the normal DORIS receiver by being able to capture and store the complex amplitude of the 401.25 and 2036.25 MHz transmissions at 200 Hz sample rate. Ground processing of the CITRIS data yields total electron content (TEC) and both phase and amplitude scintillations. With CITRIS flying on the US Space Test Program (STP) satellite STPSat1, 2 years of data were collected and processed to determine the fluctuations in ionospheric TEC and radio scintillations associated with equatorial irregularities. CITRIS flights over DORIS transmitters yield direct measurements of the horizontal plasma density fluctuations associated with equatorial plasma bubbles. Future flights of CITRIS can provide valuable complements to other satellite instruments such as GPS occultation receivers used to estimate vertical electron density profiles in the ionosphere.

AB General scaling laws are developed for projecting measurements of the plasma concentrations of anticancer drugs from laboratory animals to humans and among humans of different sizes. Associated scaling laws for critical drug doses are established from these laws. Broad categories of single and periodic i.v. bolus dosings are considered. Validity of the relations is shown using measurement from the literature for several well-known cytotoxic agents. The scaling theory is also shown to apply to novel anticancer drugs now available or presently under development, as represented by the p.o. administered prodrug capecitabine, the gene silencing inhibitor zebularine, and the blood vessel inhibitor bevacizumab. Scaling considerations for the modern practice of combination chemotherapy are also discussed. Cancer Res; 70( 12); 4801-8. (C)2010 AACR.

AB A fine resolution (approximate to 3.3 km) version of the HYbrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM) is developed for the Caspian Sea. The model consists of a hybrid sigma-z coordinate system, with sigma-coordinates for the upper layers and z-levels below a user-specified depth and in very shallow water. General features of the Caspian Sea HYCOM are presented including the bottom topography, initialization and atmospheric forcing along with river discharge. The climatologically forced model simulation reveals that there is net heat loss (gain) during winter (summer), and that rivers can have significant influence on the freshwater fluxes, especially on the northwestern shelf. There is a strong seasonal cycle in the net surface heat fluxes. The freshwater fluxes are found to be locally dominated by river discharge. In particular, the Volga River, which has very high discharge rate during the summer months, is found to play an important role in driving the seasonal cycle of freshwater fluxes in the North Caspian Sea. Over the basin, the buoyancy fluxes calculated from net heat and freshwater fluxes indicate that buoyancy is much more sensitive to variations in heating than precipitation-evaporation since thermal buoyancy fluxes are much greater than the haline buoyancy fluxes. A set of model simulations further investigates the impact of evaporation, precipitation and river flow on the upper ocean quantities. It is demonstrated that the discharge rate from the Volga River controls the monthly variations in surface salinity fields in the North Caspian Sea. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB Deuterium fusion reactant energy spectra have been measured using a diagnostic that records the Doppler shift imparted to charged particle fusion products of the D(d,p)T reaction by the center-of-mass velocity of the deuterium reactants. This diagnostic, known as the fusion ion Doppler shift diagnostic (FIDO) measures fast deuterium energy spectra in the inertial electrostatic confinement (IEC) experiment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison {Santarius et al. [Fusion Sci. Technol. 47, 1238 (2005)]}, a device to confine high energy light ions in a spherically symmetric, electrostatic potential well. This article details the first measurements of the fusion reactant energy spectra in an IEC device as well as the design and principles of operation of the FIDO diagnostic. Scaling of reactant energy spectra with a variety of experimental parameters have been explored. (C) 2010 American Institute of Physics. [doi:10.1063/1.3437629]

TI Relative pressure, temperature, and gas composition sensitivity of

SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS

DT Article
ID FREQUENCY; PRECONCENTRATOR; DEPENDENCE
AB Measurement of the damping in resonant microsystems and nanosystems has been proposed for measurement of pressure, temperature, and gas composition. Because the damping will be a function of all three of these variables, estimating the sensitivity of these transducers requires modeling the effect each of these variables will have on the damping of the system. Using viscous flow theory, the relative sensitivity of damping to pressure, temperature, relative humidity, and the concentration of selected contaminants is computed. These results show that these sensors are accurate as pressure sensors across a range of conditions. Resonators are accurate as temperature sensors only if the relative humidity is known. Resonators are not accurate as humidity sensors, and are accurate as gas composition sensors only under limited conditions. [doi:10.1063/1.3447869]

AB The relationship between alongshore rip channel migration and sediment transport is investigated using time-averaged video images to identify the positions of rip channels at three sites along southern Monterey Bay, California, over 1-3 year periods. Daily migration rates are calculated for each site. The basic Coastal Engineering Research Center (CERC) formula for bulk alongshore sediment transport is used to estimate alongshore transport rates at each site, based on hourly input of directional wave spectra measured at an offshore buoy and shoaled and refracted to the nearshore. The wave transformation model is validated by comparison with measured nearshore directional wave spectra in 13 m water depth. An expanded CERC formulation that accounts for the additional forcing of alongshore wave height gradients is also tested but rejected. Correlation coefficients between daily rates of calculated alongshore transport and rip channel migration are low: 0.01, 0.44, and 0.38 at the Sand City, Stilwell, and Marina sites, respectively. The problem of digitization noise, associated with video-based rip channel identification, is discussed and several filtering methods are used to increase the signal to noise ratio and obtain improved correlations. Results indicate that higher frequency migration events (on time scales shorter than 8 days) will likely be obscured below the digitization "noise floor", but that longer period oscillations (such as tidal and seasonal cycles) show up clearly in both rip migration and sediment transport datasets. Daily rates are cumulatively summed to generate time series of representative overall rip migration distance and net alongshore transport, and the cumulative summing procedure is shown to be similar to applying a low-pass filter. Mean migration is demonstrated to lag behind net transport in the summertime, suggesting that a minimum level of alongshore forcing is required to generate detectable rip migration. Rip channel migration and net alongshore transport have correlation coefficients that range from 0.76 to 0.94 at the three sites. Published by Elsevier B.V.

TI Effect of scattering albedo on attenuation and polarization of light
underwater
SO OPTICS LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
ID LINKS
AB Recent work on underwater laser communication links uses polarization discrimination to improve system performance [Appl. Opt. 48, 328 (2009)] [in Proceedings of IEEE Oceans 2009 (IEEE, 2009), pp. 1-4]. In the laboratory, Maalox antacid is commonly used as a scattering agent. While its scattering function closely mimics that of natural seawaters, its scattering albedo can be much higher, as Maalox particles tend to be less absorbing. We present a series of experiments where Nigrosin dye is added to Maalox in order to more accurately recreate real-world absorption and scattering properties. We consider the effect that scattering albedo has on received power and the degree of depolarization of forward-scattered light in the context of underwater laser communication links.

AB We report a measurement of high-p(T) inclusive pi(0), eta, and direct photon production in p + p and d + Au collisions at root s(NN) = 200 GeV at midrapidity (0 < eta < 1). Photons from the decay pi(0) -> gamma gamma were detected in the barrel electromagnetic calorimeter of the STAR experiment at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider. The eta -> gamma gamma decay was also observed and constituted the first eta measurement by STAR. The first direct photon cross-section measurement by STAR is also presented; the signal was extracted statistically by subtracting the pi(0), eta, and omega(782) decay background from the inclusive photon distribution observed in the calorimeter. The analysis is described in detail, and the results are found to be in good agreement with earlier measurements and with next-to-leading-order perturbative QCD calculations.

AB Hierarchical organosilicate sorbents were synthesized which possess structure on two length scales macropores of approximately 1 mu m lined by mesopores (35-45 angstrom) The incorporation of macropores provides enhanced flow-through characteristics over purely mesoporous materials, thereby reducing back pressure when used in column formats Materials of this type with varied sur face groups were applied to the adsorption of 2,4,6-trinitrotoluene (TNT) and 1,3,5-trinitro-1,3,5-triazacyclohexane (RDX) in both batch and column formats The results presented here demonstrate the potential of these materials for application as solid phase extraction materials for the pre-concentration of nitroenergetic targets from aqueous solutions. The structural and binding characteristics of the materials have been evaluated and preliminary data on the impact of complex matrices is provided. Published by Elsevier B V

AB A decadal variation of tropical lower stratospheric ozone and temperature has previously been identified that correlates positively with the 11 year solar activity cycle. However, the El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) also influences lower stratospheric ozone and temperature. It is therefore legitimate to ask whether quasi-decadal ENSO variability can contribute to this apparent solar cycle variation, either accidentally because of the short measurement record or physically because solar variability affects ENSO. Here we present multiple regression analyses of available data records to compare differences in results obtained with and without including an ENSO term in the statistical model. In addition, simulations are performed using the NRL NOGAPS-ALPHA GCM for warm/cold ENSO conditions to test for consistency with the ENSO regression results. We find only very minor changes in annual mean solar regression coefficients when an ENSO term is included. However, the observed tropical ENSO response provides useful insights into the origin of the unexpected vertical structure of the tropical solar cycle ozone response. In particular, the ENSO ozone response is negative in the lower stratosphere due to increased upwelling but changes sign, becoming positive in the middle stratosphere (5-10 hPa) due mainly to advective decreases of temperature and NOx, which photochemically increase ozone. A similar mechanism may explain the observed lower stratospheric solar cycle ozone and temperature response and the absence of a significant response in the tropical middle stratosphere.

AB This paper describes a novel approach to improve the quality of non-manifold hexahedral meshes with feature preservation for microstructure materials. In earlier works, we developed an octree-based isocon-touring method to construct unstructured hexahedral meshes for domains with multiple materials by introducing the notion of material change edge to identify the interface between two or more materials. However, quality improvement of non-manifold hexahedral meshes is still a challenge. In the present algorithm, all the vertices are categorized into seven groups, and then a comprehensive method based on pillowing, geometric flow and optimization techniques is developed for mesh quality improvement. The shrink set in the modified pillowing technique is defined automatically as the boundary of each material region with the exception of local non-manifolds. In the relaxation-based smoothing process, non-manifold points are identified and fixed. Planar boundary curves and interior spatial curves are distinguished, and then regularized using B-spline interpolation and resampling. Grain boundary surface patches and interior vertices are improved as well. Finally, the optimization method eliminates negative Jacobians of all the vertices. We have applied our algorithms to two beta titanium data sets, and the constructed meshes are validated via a statistics study. Finite element analysis of the 92-grain titanium is carried out based on the improved mesh, and compared with the direct voxel-to-element technique. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

AB The reduced form of graphene oxide (GO) is an attractive alternative to graphene for producing large-scale flexible conductors and for creating devices that require an electronic gap. We report on a means to tune the topographical and electrical properties of reduced GO (rGO) with nanoscopic resolution by local thermal reduction of GO with a heated atomic force microscope tip. The rGO regions are up to four orders of magnitude more conductive than pristine GO. No sign of tip wear or sample tearing was observed. Variably conductive nanoribbons with dimensions down to 12 nanometers could be produced in oxidized epitaxial graphene films in a single step that is clean, rapid, and reliable.

AB We study Milky Way kinematics using a sample of 18.8 million main-sequence stars with r < 20 and proper-motion measurements derived from Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and POSS astrometry, including similar to 170,000 stars with radial-velocity measurements from the SDSS spectroscopic survey. Distances to stars are determined using a photometric-parallax relation, covering a distance range from similar to 100 pc to 10 kpc over a quarter of the sky at high Galactic latitudes (|b| > 20 degrees). We find that in the region defined by 1 kpc < Z < 5 kpc and 3 kpc < R < 13 kpc, the rotational velocity for disk stars smoothly decreases, and all three components of the velocity dispersion increase, with distance from the Galactic plane. In contrast, the velocity ellipsoid for halo stars is aligned with a spherical coordinate system and appears to be spatially invariant within the probed volume. The velocity distribution of nearby (Z < 1 kpc) K/M stars is complex, and cannot be described by a standard Schwarzschild ellipsoid. For stars in a distance-limited subsample of stars (< 100 pc), we detect a multi-modal velocity distribution consistent with that seen by HIPPARCOS. This strong non-Gaussianity significantly affects the measurements of the velocity-ellipsoid tilt and vertex deviation when using the Schwarzschild approximation. We develop and test a simple descriptive model for the overall kinematic behavior that captures these features over most of the probed volume, and can be used to search for substructure in kinematic and metallicity space. We use this model to predict further improvements in kinematic mapping of the Galaxy expected from Gaia and the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope.

AB We have conducted a detailed investigation of the broadband spectral properties of the gamma-ray selected blazars of the Fermi LAT Bright AGN Sample (LBAS). By combining our accurately estimated Fermi gamma-ray spectra with Swift, radio, infra-red, optical, and other hard X-ray/gamma-ray data, collected within 3 months of the LBAS data taking period, we were able to assemble high-quality and quasi-simultaneous spectral energy distributions (SED) for 48 LBAS blazars. The SED of these gamma-ray sources is similar to that of blazars discovered at other wavelengths, clearly showing, in the usual log nu-log nu F-nu representation, the typical broadband spectral signatures normally attributed to a combination of low-energy synchrotron radiation followed by inverse Compton emission of one or more components. We have used these SED to characterize the peak intensity of both the low-and the high-energy components. The results have been used to derive empirical relationships that estimate the position of the two peaks from the broadband colors (i.e., the radio to optical, alpha(ro), and optical to X-ray, alpha(ox), spectral slopes) and from the gamma-ray spectral index. Our data show that the synchrotron peak frequency (nu(S)(peak)) is positioned between 10(12.5) and 10(14.5) Hz in broad-lined flat spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) and between 10(13) and 10(17) Hz in featureless BL Lacertae objects. We find that the gamma-ray spectral slope is strongly correlated with the synchrotron peak energy and with the X-ray spectral index, as expected at first order in synchrotron-inverse Compton scenarios. However, simple homogeneous, one-zone, synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) models cannot explain most of our SED, especially in the case of FSRQs and low energy peaked (LBL) BL Lacs. More complex models involving external Compton radiation or multiple SSC components are required to reproduce the overall SED and the observed spectral variability. While more than 50% of known radio bright high energy peaked (HBL) BL Lacs are detected in the LBAS sample, only less than 13% of known bright FSRQs and LBL BL Lacs are included. This suggests that the latter sources, as a class, may be much fainter gamma-ray emitters than LBAS blazars, and could in fact radiate close to the expectations of simple SSC models. We categorized all our sources according to a new physical classification scheme based on the generally accepted paradigm for Active Galactic Nuclei and on the results of this SED study. Since the LAT detector is more sensitive to flat spectrum gamma-ray sources, the correlation between nu(S)(peak) and gamma-ray spectral index strongly favors the detection of high energy peaked blazars, thus explaining the Fermi overabundance of this type of sources compared to radio and EGRET samples. This selection effect is similar to that experienced in the soft X-ray band where HBL BL Lacs are the dominant type of blazars.

AB Butterfly diagrams (latitude-time plots) of coronal emission show a zone of enhanced brightness that appears near the poles just after solar maximum and migrates toward lower latitudes; a bifurcation seems to occur at sunspot minimum, with one branch continuing to migrate equatorward with the sunspots of the new cycle and the other branch heading back to the poles. The resulting patterns have been likened to those seen in torsional oscillations and have been taken as evidence for an extended solar cycle lasting over similar to 17 yr. In order to clarify the nature of the overlapping bands of coronal emission, we construct butterfly diagrams from green-line simulations covering the period 1967-2009 and from 19.5 nm and 30.4 nm observations taken with the Extreme-Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope during 1996-2009. As anticipated from earlier studies, we find that the high-latitude enhancements mark the footpoint areas of closed loops with one end rooted outside the evolving boundaries of the polar coronal holes. The strong underlying fields were built up over the declining phase of the cycle through the poleward transport of active-region flux by the surface meridional flow. Rather than being a precursor of the new-cycle sunspot activity zone, the high-latitude emission forms a physically distinct, U-shaped band that curves upward again as active-region fields emerge at midlatitudes and reconnect with the receding polar-hole boundaries. We conclude that the so-called extended cycle in coronal emission is a manifestation not of early new-cycle activity, but of the poleward concentration of old-cycle trailing-polarity flux by meridional flow.

TI SUZAKU OBSERVATIONS OF LUMINOUS QUASARS: REVEALING THE NATURE OF
HIGH-ENERGY BLAZAR EMISSION IN LOW-LEVEL ACTIVITY STATES

AB We present the results from the Suzaku X-ray observations of five flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs), namely PKS 0208-512, Q 0827+243, PKS 1127-145, PKS 1510-089, and 3C 454.3. All these sources were additionally monitored simultaneously or quasi-simultaneously by the Fermi satellite in gamma rays and the Swift UVOT in the UV and optical bands, respectively. We constructed their broadband spectra covering the frequency range from 10(14) Hz up to 10(25) Hz, and those reveal the nature of high-energy emission of luminous blazars in their low-activity states. The analyzed X-ray spectra are well fitted by a power-law model with photoelectric absorption. In the case of PKS 0208-512, PKS 1127-145, and 3C 454.3, the X-ray continuum showed indication of hardening at low energies. Moreover, when compared with the previous X-ray observations, we see a significantly increasing contribution of low-energy photons to the total X-ray fluxes when the sources are getting fainter. The same behavior can be noted in the Suzaku data alone. A likely explanation involves a variable, flat-spectrum component produced via inverse-Compton emission, plus an additional, possibly steady soft X-ray component prominent when the source gets fainter. This soft X-ray excess is represented either by a steep power-law (photon indices Gamma similar to 3-5) or a blackbody-type emission with temperatures kT similar to 0.1-0.2 keV. We model the broadband spectra of the five observed FSRQs using synchrotron self-Compton and/or external-Compton radiation models. Our modeling suggests that the difference between the low-and high-activity states in luminous blazars is due to the different total kinetic power of the jet, most likely related to varying bulk Lorentz factor of the outflow within the blazar emission zone.

AB Strong surface waves and currents generated by major hurricanes can produce extreme forces at the seabed that scour the seafloor and cause massive underwater mudslides. Our understanding of these forces is poor due to lack of concurrent measurements of waves and currents under these storms. Using unique observations collected during the passage of a category-4 hurricane, Ivan, bottom stress due to currents and waves over the outer continental shelf in the Gulf of Mexico was examined. During the passage of Ivan, the bottom stress was highly correlated with the wind with a maximum of about 40% of the wind stress. The bottom stress was dominated by the wave-induced stresses, and exceeded critical levels at depths as large as 90 m. Surprisingly, the bottom damaging stress persisted after the passage of Ivan for about a week, and was modulated by near-inertial waves. Citation: Wijesekera, H. W., D. W. Wang, W. J. Teague, and E.

AB Observations of velocity fluctuations with periods between about 4 and 30 min, thus longer than infragravity waves and referred to as very low frequency (VLF) surf zone motions, are described and compared with numerical simulations. The VLF motions discussed here exclude instabilities (generated by the wave-driven alongshore current velocity shear) that occur in the same frequency range by selecting cases with weak alongshore currents only. Numerical simulations are based on the linear shallow water equations including friction and forced by nonlinear difference-frequency interactions between incident sea and swell waves. The model is initialized with sea and swell frequency directional spectra observed seaward of the surf zone. Modeled and observed VLF velocity fluctuation magnitudes agree within a factor of 2; both increase approximately linearly with increasing incident wave height and rapidly decay seaward of the surf zone. Observed frequency-wave-number, f-k(y), spectra of VLF velocity fluctuations, estimated with instrumented alongshore arrays, are energetic in a broad range of k(y) in the vortical band. Observed and modeled VLF pressure fluctuations are relatively weak. Still, the model momentum balance suggests that VLF pressure gradients are as important as the nonlinear wave group forcing by sea and swell in accelerating/decelerating the VLF velocities. Model calculations demonstrate that the VLF-f-k(y) response is a function of the modulations of short-wave forcing associated with the frequency directional distribution of the incident sea and swell spectra. This results in VLF motions which span the surf zone and have O(50-1000 m) alongshore scales with O(200-2000 s) time scales. Given the fact that modulations of short waves resulting from directionally spread incident waves are common during field conditions we expect VLFs to be ubiquitous.

AB Background: To date, biological components have been incorporated into MEMS devices to create cell-based sensors and assays, motors and actuators, and pumps. Bio-MEMS technologies present a unique opportunity to study fundamental biological processes at a level unrealized with previous methods. The capability to miniaturize analytical systems enables researchers to perform multiple experiments in parallel and with a high degree of control over experimental variables for high-content screening applications.
Methodology/Principal Findings: We have demonstrated a biological microelectromechanical system (BioMEMS) based on silicon cantilevers and an AFM detection system for studying the physiology and kinetics of myotubes derived from embryonic rat skeletal muscle. It was shown that it is possible to interrogate and observe muscle behavior in real time, as well as selectively stimulate the contraction of myotubes with the device. Stress generation of the tissue was estimated using a modification of Stoney's equation. Calculated stress values were in excellent agreement with previously published results for cultured myotubes, but not adult skeletal muscle. Other parameters such as time to peak tension (TPT), the time to half relaxation (KRT) were compared to the literature. It was observed that the myotubes grown on the BioMEMS device, while generating stress magnitudes comparable to those previously published, exhibited slower TPT and KRT values. However, growth in an enhanced media increased these values. From these data it was concluded that the myotubes cultured on the cantilevers were of an embryonic phenotype. The system was also shown to be responsive to the application of a toxin, veratridine.
Conclusions/Significance: The device demonstrated here will provide a useful foundation for studying various aspects of muscle physiology and behavior in a controlled high-throughput manner as well as be useful for biosensor and drug discovery applications.

AB A plasmas-based, reversible functionalization of graphene is discussed. Using electron-beam produced plasmas, oxygen and fluorine functionalities have been added by changing the processing gas mixtures from Ar/O-2 to Ar/SF6, respectively. The reversibility of the functionalization was investigated by annealing the samples. The chemical composition and structural changes were studied by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. [doi: 10.1063/1.3436556]

AB We elucidate the polymer dynamics of a liquid crystal elastomer based on the time-dependent response of the pendent liquid crystal mesogens. The molecular tilt and switching time of mesogens are analyzed as a function of temperature and cross-linking density upon application of an electric field. We observe an unexpected maximum in the switching time of the liquid crystal mesogens at intermediate field strength. Analysis of the molecular tilt over multiple time regimes correlates the maximum response time with a transition to entangled polymer dynamics at a critical field strength.

AB As a clinical medication for the treatment of hyperkinetic movement disorders, in conditions such as Huntington's disease, tetrabenazine (TBZ) has always been used in its racemic form. To establish whether or not its beneficial therapeutic actions are enantiospecific, a practical total synthetic route was developed to yield each enantiomeric form to allow their chemical and pharmacological characterization. We briefly summarize the total synthesis of TBZ and report a detailed procedure for resolution of TBZ into its enantiomers, (+)-TBZ and (-)-TBZ. This allowed determination of the optical rotation and absolute configurations of each TBZ enantiomer, based on X-ray crystallographic analysis, together with characterization of their inhibitory action at the vesicular monoamine transporter 2, where (+)-TBZ proved 3-fold more active than (-)-TBZ.

AB We report exceptional nanoscale wear and fouling resistance of ultrananocrystalline diamond (UNCD) tips integrated with doped silicon atomic force microscope (AFM) cantilevers. The resistively heated probe can reach temperatures above 600 degrees C. The batch fabrication process produces UNCD tips with radii as small as 15 nm, with average radius 50 nm across the entire wafer. Wear tests were performed on substrates of quartz, silicon carbide, silicon, or UNCD. Tips were scanned for more than 1 m at a scan speed of 25 mu m s(-1) at temperatures ranging from 25 to 400 degrees C under loads up to 200 nN. Under these conditions, silicon tips are partially or completely destroyed, while the UNCD tips exhibit little or no wear, no signs of delamination, and exceptional fouling resistance. We demonstrate nanomanufacturing of more than 5000 polymer nanostructures with no deterioration in the tip.

AB The stable integration of a biological recognition element on a transducing substrate surface is the single most important step in the creation of a high-functioning sensor surface. The key factors affecting biotic and abiotic functionalities at the biointerface are both chemical and physical. Understanding the interactions between biomolecules and surfaces, and their emergent complexity, is critical for biointerface implementation for sensing applications. In this overview, we highlight materials and methods typically used for biosensor development. Particular emphasis has been given to the experimental evaluation of biointerfacial properties and functionality. Promising research directions for application of biointerfaces to biosensing are suggested.

AB We tested whether positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) increases right internal jugular vein (RIJV) cross-sectional area (CSA) in 45 ASA physical status I and II adults. All patients received a standardized IV fluid bolus, induction of general anesthesia, tracheal intubation, and mechanical ventilation. We evaluated the CSA of the RIJV using ultrasound without PEEP (control) and with PEEP (10 cm H(2)O) in the supine, level position. Addition of PEEP increased RIJV CSA 0.42 +/- 0.41 cm(2) (mean +/- SD, median 0.34 cm(2), P < 0.001), which represented a 41% mean increase in CSA. (Anesth Analg 2010;110:1669-73)

DT Editorial Material
AB On 12 January 2010, a 7.0-magnitude earthquake devastated the island nation of Haiti, leading to the world's largest humanitarian effort in over 6 decades. The catastrophe caused massive destruction of homes and buildings and overwhelmed the Haitian health care system. The United States responded immediately with a massive relief effort, sending U. S. military forces and civilian volunteers to Haiti's aid and providing a tertiary care medical center aboard the USNS COMFORT hospital ship. The COMFORT offered sophisticated medical care to a geographically isolated population and helped to transfer resource-intensive patients from other treatment facilities. Working collaboratively with the surgical staff, ancillary services, and nursing staff, internists aboard the COMFORT were integral to supporting the mission of the hospital ship and provided high-level care to the casualties. This article provides the perspective of the U. S. Navy internists who participated in the initial response to the Haitian earthquake disaster onboard the COMFORT.

AB Plasmodium vivax, P. ovale, P. malariae and P. falciparum routinely infect humans. The infections caused by these parasites are loosely referred to as vivax (or benign tertian), ovale, malariae (or quartan) and falciparum (or malignant tertian) malaria, respectively. Recently, P. knowlesi, a parasite of macaque monkeys in South-east Asia, has been identified as the cause of uncomplicated and severe human malaria in Malaysian Borneo. The prescription of appropriate therapies for reliably diagnosed malaria requires a grasp of the epidemiology of the 'non-falciparum' malarias, the biology of the parasites involved, the chemotherapeutic strategies that are available and the problems of emerging drug resistance and changing clinical syndromes. This review is intended to increase clinicians' understanding of how these factors relate to the selection of the antimalarial drugs to be given to a case of 'non-falciparum' malaria, with the aims of improving outcomes and preventing relapses and recrudescences.

AB The purpose of this experiment was to determine the rate of photolysis for 2,4-dinitrotoluene (2,4-DNT) and 2,6-dinitrotoluene (2,6-DNT) in salt water and pure water, examine the influence of salt concentration on the photolysis rate, and to identify the products of the photolysis of 2,4-DNT and 2,6-DNT in seawater. For the photolysis of 2,4-DNT in pure water, the half-life was longer than 100 h, whereas the photolysis half-life in salt water was similar to 15 h. For 2,6-DNT, the pure water photolysis half-life was close to 20 h, but the salt water photolysis half-life was only 5 h. The photolysis rate for 2,6-DNT in seawater was affected by the ionic strength of the parent solution and was independent of the identity of the salt. The photolysis of both DNTs in seawater resulted in a complex mixture of products that exhibit a distinct yellow color. Analysis by gas and liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy (GCMS, LCMS) following liquid-liquid extraction or solid phase extractions resulted in the confirmation of the corresponding dinitrobenzaldhydes and dinitrobenzoic acids as photolysis products and a probable azoxy compound among the photolysis products in seawater.

AB The annual migration of bowhead whales (Balaena mysticetus) past Barrow, Alaska, has provided subsistence hunting to Inupiat for centuries. Bowheads recurrently feed on aggregations of zooplankton prey near Barrow in autumn. The mechanisms that form these aggregations, and the associations between whales and oceanography, were investigated using field sampling, retrospective analysis, and traditional knowledge interviews. Oceanographic and aerial surveys were conducted near Barrow during August and September in 2005 and 2006. Multiple water masses were observed, and close coupling between water mass type and biological characteristics was noted. Short-term variability in hydrography was associated with changes in wind speed and direction that profoundly affected plankton taxonomic composition. Aggregations of ca. 50-100 bowhead whales were observed in early September of both years at locations consistent with traditional knowledge. Retrospective analyses of records for 1984-2004 also showed that annual aggregations of whales near Barrow were associated with wind speed and direction. Euphausiids and copepods appear to be upwelled onto the Beaufort Sea shelf during E or SE winds. A favorable feeding environment is produced when these plankton are retained and concentrated on the shelf by the prevailing westward Beaufort Sea shelf currents that converge with the Alaska Coastal Current flowing to the northeast along the eastern edge of Barrow Canyon.

AB Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the indications for and outcomes of arthroscopic labral reconstruction in the hip by use of iliotibial band (ITB) autograft. Methods: Between August 2005 and May 2008, the senior author (M.J.P.) performed 95 arthroscopic labral reconstructions using an ITB autograft in patients with advanced labral degeneration or deficiency. There were 47 patients who had undergone surgery at a minimum of 1 year previously and met the inclusion criteria. The modified Harris Hip Score (MHHS) and patient satisfaction were used to measure outcomes postoperatively. The labral autograft was harvested from the ITB through a separate incision. The graft was sutured to the intact labral remnant in the region of labral deficiency, re-establishing the suction seal of the hip joint. Results: There were 32 men and 15 women. The mean age at the time of surgery was 37 years (range, 18 to 55 years). The mean time from the onset of symptoms to labral reconstruction was 36 months (range, 1 month to 12 years). Subsequent total hip arthroplasty was performed in 4 patients (9%). Follow-up was obtained in 37 of the remaining 43 patients. The mean time to follow-up was 18 months (range, 12 to 32 months). The mean MHHS improved from 62 (range, 35 to 92) preoperatively to 85 (range, 53 to 100) postoperatively (P = .001). Median patient satisfaction was 8 out of 10 (range, 1 to 10). Patients who were treated within 1 year of injury had higher MHHSs than patients who waited longer than 1 year (93 v 81, P = .03). The independent predictor of patient satisfaction with outcome after labral reconstruction was age. Conclusions: This study showed that patients who have labral deficiency or advanced labral degeneration had good outcomes and high patient satisfaction after arthroscopic intervention with acetabular labral reconstruction. Lower satisfaction was associated with joint space narrowing and increased age. Patients who waited longer than 1 year from the time of injury to surgery had lower function at follow-up than those treated in the first year. Level of Evidence: Level IV, therapeutic case series.

AB Purpose: The purpose of this study was to quantify the change in degrees in the center-edge (CE) angle for each millimeter of acetabular rim resected in hips undergoing arthroscopic acetabular rim trimming. Methods: Preoperative and postoperative CE angle and millimeters of rim reduction were prospectively collected in 58 hips that underwent arthroscopic rim reduction. There were 35 women and 23 men. The mean age was 32 years. The inclusion criterion was hip arthroscopy for femoro-acetabular impingement in patients without dysplastic hips. Two orthopaedic surgeons made independent measurements of the CE angle on preoperative and postoperative anteroposterior pelvis radiographs. To determine the amount of rim reduction intraoperatively, the lunate surface was measured with an arthroscopic ruler at the 12-o'clock position before and after rim trimming. The rim trimming was performed by a single surgeon using a 5.5-mm motorized bur. Results: For the 58 hips included in this study, the mean rim reduction performed was 3.2 mm (range, 1 to 9 mm). The mean change in CE angle was 3.9 (range, 0 to 17). All numbers were normally distributed. By use of a regression model, the change in the CE angle could be determined by the following formula: Change in CE angle = 1.8 + (0.64 x rim reduction in millimeters). The interobserver intraclass correlation coefficient for radiographic measurement of the CE angle was 0.92 (95% confidence interval, 0.87 to 0.95), indicating excellent interobserver reliability. Conclusions: The amount of change in the CE angle can be estimated by the amount of bony resection performed at the 12-o'clock position on the lunate surface in the arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement. We found that 1 mm of bony resection equals 2.4 of change in the CE angle and 5 mm of bony resection equals 5 of change in the CE angle. Level of Evidence: Level II, diagnostic study.

ID SUPERCOSMOS SKY SURVEY
AB The third US Naval Observatory (USNO) CCD Astrograph Catalog, UCAC3, was released at the IAU General Assembly on 2009 August 10. It is the first all-sky release in this series and contains just over 100 million objects, about 95 million of them with proper motions, covering about R = 8-16 mag. Current epoch positions are obtained from the observations with the 20 cm aperture USNO Astrograph's "red lens," equipped with a 4k x 4k CCD. Proper motions are derived by combining these observations with over 140 ground-and space-based catalogs, including Hipparcos/Tycho and the AC2000.2, as well as unpublished measures of over 5000 plates from other astrographs. For most of the faint stars in the southern hemisphere, the Yale/San Juan first epoch plates from the Southern Proper Motion (SPM) program (YSJ1) form the basis for proper motions. These data are supplemented by all-sky Schmidt plate survey astrometry and photometry obtained from the SuperCOSMOS project, as well as 2MASS near-IR photometry. Major differences of UCAC3 data as compared with UCAC2 include a completely new raw data reduction with improved control over systematic errors in positions, significantly improved photometry, slightly deeper limiting magnitude, coverage of the north pole region, greater completeness by inclusion of double stars, and weak detections. This of course leads to a catalog which is not as "clean" as UCAC2 and problem areas are outlined for the user in this paper. The positional accuracy of stars in UCAC3 is about 15-100 mas per coordinate, depending on magnitude, while the errors in proper motions range from 1 to 10 mas yr(-1) depending on magnitude and observing history, with a significant improvement over UCAC2 achieved due to the re-reduced SPM data and inclusion of more astrograph plate data unavailable at the time of UCAC2.

ID CATALOG; SYSTEM; STARS
AB Presented here are the details of the astrometric reductions from the x, y data to mean right ascension (R. A.), declination (decl.) coordinates of the third U. S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC3). For these new reductions we used over 216,000 CCD exposures. The Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS) data are used extensively to probe for coordinate and coma-like systematic errors in UCAC data mainly caused by the poor charge transfer efficiency of the 4K CCD. Errors up to about 200 mas have been corrected using complex look-up tables handling multiple dependences derived from the residuals. Similarly, field distortions and sub-pixel phase errors have also been evaluated using the residuals with respect to 2MASS. The overall magnitude equation is derived from UCAC calibration field observations alone, independent of external catalogs. Systematic errors of positions at the UCAC observing epoch as presented in UCAC3 are better corrected than in the previous catalogs for most stars. The Tycho-2 catalog is used to obtain final positions on the International Celestial Reference Frame. Residuals of the Tycho-2 reference stars show a small magnitude equation (depending on declination zone) that might be inherent in the Tycho-2 catalog.

AB The third US Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog, UCAC3, was released at the IAU General Assembly on 2009 August 10. It is a highly accurate, all-sky astrometric catalog of about 100 million stars in the R = 8-16 mag range. Recent epoch observations are based on over 270,000 CCD exposures, which have been reprocessed for the UCAC3 release applying traditional and new techniques. Challenges in the data have been high dark current and asymmetric image profiles due to the poor charge transfer efficiency of the detector. Non-Gaussian image profile functions were explored and correlations are found for profile fit parameters with properties of the CCD frames. These were utilized to constrain the image profile fit models and adequately describe the observed point-spread function of stellar images with a minimum number of free parameters. Using an appropriate model function, blended images of double stars could be fit successfully. UCAC3 positions are derived from two-dimensional image profile fits with a five-parameter, symmetric Lorentz profile model. Internal precisions of about 5 mas per coordinate and single exposure are found, which are degraded by the atmosphere to about 10 mas. However, systematic errors exceeding 100 mas are present in the x, y data which have been corrected in the astrometric reductions following the x, y data reduction step described here.

AB High spatial resolution observations of the H alpha-emitting wind structure associated with the luminous blue variable star P Cygni were obtained with the Navy Prototype Optical Interferometer. These observations represent the most comprehensive interferometric data set on P Cyg to date. We demonstrate how the apparent size of the H alpha-emitting region of the wind structure of P Cyg compares between the 2005, 2007, and 2008 observing seasons and how this relates to the H alpha line spectroscopy. Using the data sets from 2005, 2007, and 2008 observing seasons, we fit a circularly symmetric Gaussian model to the interferometric signature from the H alpha-emitting wind structure of P Cyg. Based on our results, we conclude that the radial extent of the H alpha-emitting wind structure around P Cyg is stable at the 10% level. We also show how the radial distribution of the H alpha flux from the wind structure deviates from a Gaussian shape, whereas a two-component Gaussian model is sufficient to fully describe the H alpha-emitting region around P Cyg.

AB We present the modification of the orbits of. Draconis and HD 184467, and a completely new orbit for HD 198084, including data taken at the Center for High Angular Resolution Astronomy (CHARA) Array. These data were obtained using a modification of the technique of separated fringe packets (SFPs). The accuracy of the SFP data surpasses that of data taken by speckle, but the technique is much more time and labor intensive. Additionally, using SFPs with the CHARA Array, it is possible to obtain separations below the detection range of speckle interferometry (>= 30 mas) above the range in "classic" long-baseline interferometry where fringes from a binary overlap are no longer separated (<= 10 mas). Using spectroscopic binary systems with published speckle orbits, we are able to test our new measurements against their ephemerides to calibrate the method as well as produce entirely new orbits for systems with no current astrometric observations.

AB Context. Helicity is a fundamental property of magnetic fields, conserved in ideal MHD. In flux rope geometry, it consists of twist and writhe helicity. Despite the common occurrence of helical structures in the solar atmosphere, little is known about how their shape relates to the writhe, which fraction of helicity is contained in writhe, and how much helicity is exchanged between twist and writhe when they erupt.
Aims. Here we perform a quantitative investigation of these questions relevant for coronal flux ropes.
Methods. The decomposition of the writhe of a curve into local and nonlocal components greatly facilitates its computation. We use it to study the relation between writhe and projected S shape of helical curves and to measure writhe and twist in numerical simulations of flux rope instabilities. The results are discussed with regard to filament eruptions and coronal mass ejections (CMEs).
Results. (1) We demonstrate that the relation between writhe and projected S shape is not unique in principle, but that the ambiguity does not affect low-lying structures, thus supporting the established empirical rule which associates stable forward (reverse) S shaped structures low in the corona with positive (negative) helicity. (2) Kink-unstable erupting flux ropes are found to transform a far smaller fraction of their twist helicity into writhe helicity than often assumed. (3) Confined flux rope eruptions tend to show stronger writhe at low heights than ejective eruptions (CMEs). This argues against suggestions that the writhing facilitates the rise of the rope through the overlying field. (4) Erupting filaments which are S shaped already before the eruption and keep the sign of their axis writhe (which is expected if field of one chirality dominates the source volume of the eruption), must reverse their S shape in the course of the rise. Implications for the occurrence of the helical kink instability in such events are discussed. (5) The writhe of rising loops can easily be estimated from the angle of rotation about the direction of ascent, once the apex height exceeds the footpoint separation significantly.
Conclusions. Writhe can straightforwardly be computed for numerical data and can often be estimated from observations. It is useful in interpreting S shaped coronal structures and in constraining models of eruptions.

TI New rotation periods in the open cluster NGC 1039 (M 34), and a
derivation of its gyrochronology age

AB Aims. Employing photometric rotation periods for solar-type stars in NGC 1039 [M34], a young, nearby open cluster, we use its mass-dependent rotation period distribution to derive the cluster's age in a distance independent way, i.e., the so-called gyrochronology method.
Methods. We present an analysis of 55 new rotation periods, using light curves derived from differential photometry, for solar type stars in the open cluster NGC 1039 [M34]. We also exploit the results of a recently-completed, standardized, homogeneous BVIc CCD survey of the cluster, performed by the Indiana Group of the WIYN open cluster survey, in order to establish photometric cluster membership and assign B-V colours to each photometric variable. We describe a methodology for establishing the gyrochronology age for an ensemble of solar-type stars. Empirical relations between rotation period, photometric colour and stellar age (gyrochronology) are used to determine the age of M34. Based on its position in a colour-period diagram, each M34 member is designated as being either a solid-body rotator (interface or I-star), a differentially rotating star (convective or C-star) or an object which is in some transitory state in between the two (gap or g-star). Fitting the period and photometric colour of each I-sequence star in the cluster, we derive the cluster's mean gyrochronology age.
Results. Of the photometric variable stars in the cluster field, for which we derive a period, 47 out of 55 of them lie along the loci of the cluster main sequence in V/B - V and V/V - I space. We are further able to confirm kinematic membership of the cluster for half of the periodic variables [21/55], employing results from an on-going radial velocity survey of the cluster. For each cluster member identified as an I-sequence object in the colour-period diagram, we derive its individual gyrochronology age, where the mean gyro age of M34 is found to be 193 +/- 9 Myr.
Conclusions. Using differential photometry, members of a young open cluster can be easily identified in a colour-magnitude diagram from their periodic photometric variability alone. Such periodicity can be used to establish a period-colour distribution for the cluster, which for M34, we have used to derive its gyrochronology age of 193 +/- 9 Myr. Formally, our gyro age of M34 is consistent (within the errors) with that derived using several distance-dependent, photometric isochrone methods (250 +/- 67 Myr).

AB Aims. Radio galaxies with a projected linear size greater than or similar to 1 Mpc are classified as giant radio sources. According to the current interpretation these are old sources which have evolved in a low-density ambient medium. Because radiative losses are negligible at low frequency, extending spectral aging studies in this frequency range will allow us to determine the zero-age electron spectrum injected and then to improve the estimate of the synchrotron age of the source.
Methods. We present Very Large Array images at 74 MHz and 327 MHz of two giant radio sources: 3C 35 and 3C 223. We performed a spectral study using 74, 327, 608 and 1400 GHz images. The spectral shape is estimated in different positions along the source.
Results. The radio spectrum follows a power-law in the hotspots, while in the inner region of the lobe the shape of the spectrum shows a curvature at high frequencies. This steepening agrees with synchrotron aging of the emitting relativistic electrons. In order to estimate the synchrotron age of the sources, the spectra were fitted with a synchrotron model of emission. They show that 3C 35 is an old source of 143 +/- 20 Myr, while 3C 223 is a younger source of 72 +/- 4 Myr.

AB We have used the Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer on the Hinode spacecraft to observe large areas of outflow near an active region. These outflows are seen to persist for at least 6 days. The emission line profiles suggest that the outflow region is composed of multiple outflowing components, Doppler-shifted with respect to each other. We have modeled this scenario by imposing a double-Gaussian fit to the line profiles. These fits represent the profile markedly better than a single-Gaussian fit for Fe XII and XIII emission lines. For the fastest outflowing components, we find velocities as high as 200 km s(-1). However, there remains a correlation between the fitted line velocities and widths, suggesting that the outflows are not fully resolved by the double-Gaussian fit and that the outflow may be comprised of further components.

AB A3667 is the archetype of a merging cluster with radio relics. The northwest (NW) radio relic is the brightest cluster relic or halo known and is believed to be due to a strong merger shock. We have observed the NW relic for similar to 40 ks of net XMM-Newton time. We observe a global decline of temperature across the relic from 6 to 1 keV, similar to the Suzaku results. Our new observations reveal a sharp change of both temperature and surface brightness near the position of the relic. The increased X-ray emission on the relic can be equivalently well described by either a thermal or nonthermal spectral model. The parameters of the thermal model are consistent with a Mach number M similar to 2 shock and a shock speed of similar to 1200 km s(-1). The energy content of the relativistic particles in the radio relic can be explained if they are (re)-accelerated by the shock with an efficiency of similar to 0.2%. Comparing the limit on the inverse Compton X-ray emission with themeasured radio synchrotron emission, we set a lower limit to themagnetic field in the relic of 3 mu G. If the emission from the relic is nonthermal, this lower limit is in fact the required magnetic field.

AB Using imaging data from the Solar TErrestrial RElations Observatory (STEREO) mission, we empirically reconstruct the time-dependent three-dimensional morphology of a coronal mass ejection (CME) from 2008 June 1, which exhibits significant variation in shape as it travels from the Sun to 1 AU, requiring us to abandon the assumption of self-similar expansion. We model the CME as a flux rope that is rather fat relative to its longitudinal extent close to the Sun, but which becomes thinner and flatter on top as the flux rope moves outward. We find best agreement with the STEREO images when the flux rope's west leg is assumed to be rotated 35 degrees below the ecliptic plane. This orientation is consistent with previously published inferences about this CME's orientation from an analysis of in situ observations of the event from June 6 to June 7, when the CME hits STEREO-B. The agreement between these two very different kinds of analysis is encouraging. Close to 1 AU, the CME not only hits STEREO-B but also strikes a comet (Comet C/2007 W1 Boattini), which provides an additional constraint for our reconstruction efforts. Finally, we find that this CME is very instructive for assessing different methods of extracting kinematic information from measurements of elongation angles from the Sun, which is a complicated issue for measurements far from the Sun. The "fixed-phi" assumption that we have used successfully in the past does not work well here, and we discuss the implications for extracting reliable kinematic information from heliospheric imaging.

AB This Letter presents the first theoretical study of the dynamics of a coronal mass ejection (CME) observed by STEREO-A/B. The CME was continuously tracked by SECCHI-A, providing position-time data from eruption to 1 AU. The ejecta was intersected by STEREO-B at 1 AU, where the magnetic field and plasma parameters were measured. The observed CME trajectory and the evolution of the CME magnetic field are modeled using the semianalytic erupting flux-rope model. It is shown that the best-fit theoretical solution is in good agreement-within 1% of the measured CME trajectory in the 1 AU field of view-and is consistent with the in situ magnetic field and plasma data at 1 AU.

AB Employing solar wind measurements from the Advanced Composition Explorer and Ulysses, photospheric magnetic data, and conservation laws along open field lines, we confirm that the energy and mass flux densities at the Sun increase roughly linearly with the footpoint field strength, B-0. This empirical result has a number of important physical implications. First, it supports the assumption that the magnetic field is the source of the heating in coronal holes. Second, because B-0 may vary by over 2 orders of magnitude, depending on how close the footpoint is located to active regions, the heating rate in coronal holes varies over a very wide range, with active-region holes being characterized by much stronger heating and much larger mass fluxes at low heights than the large, weak-field polar holes. Third, the variation of the mass flux density at 1 AU remains very modest because the mass flux density at the Sun and the net flux-tube expansion both increase almost linearly with B-0, so that the two effects offset each other.

AB We present a catalog of high-energy gamma-ray sources detected by the Large Area Telescope (LAT), the primary science instrument on the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope (Fermi), during the first 11 months of the science phase of the mission, which began on 2008 August 4. The First Fermi-LAT catalog (1FGL) contains 1451 sources detected and characterized in the 100 MeV to 100 GeV range. Source detection was based on the average flux over the 11 month period, and the threshold likelihood Test Statistic is 25, corresponding to a significance of just over 4 sigma. The 1FGL catalog includes source location regions, defined in terms of elliptical fits to the 95% confidence regions and power-law spectral fits as well as flux measurements in five energy bands for each source. In addition, monthly light curves are provided. Using a protocol defined before launch we have tested for several populations of gamma-ray sources among the sources in the catalog. For individual LAT-detected sources we provide firm identifications or plausible associations with sources in other astronomical catalogs. Identifications are based on correlated variability with counterparts at other wavelengths, or on spin or orbital periodicity. For the catalogs and association criteria that we have selected, 630 of the sources are unassociated. Care was taken to characterize the sensitivity of the results to the model of interstellar diffuse gamma-ray emission used to model the bright foreground, with the result that 161 sources at low Galactic latitudes and toward bright local interstellar clouds are flagged as having properties that are strongly dependent on the model or as potentially being due to incorrectly modeled structure in the Galactic diffuse emission.

AB MAHON RT, WATANABEE, TT, WILSON MC, AUKER CR. Intravenous pm:fluorocarbon after onset of decompression sickness decreases mortality in 20-kg swine. Aviat Space Environ Med 2010; 81:555-9.
Introduction: Decompression sickness (DCS) occurs when bubbles form due to pressure decreases with severity ranging from trivial to fatal. Standard treatment requires a hyperbaric chamber, not likely to be available at remote sites or during a disabled submarine escape or rescue. Alternative (non-recompressive) treatments are needed. Intravenous administration of emulsified perfluorocarbons (PFCs) enhances oxygen delivery to, and inert gas removal from, tissues. Swine studies show PFCs administered with supplemental oxygen before symptom onset can decrease DCS incidence. We used a swine model to test whether PFC plus supplemental oxygen could improve outcome when infused after DCS symptom onset. Methods: After rapid decompression from 31 min at 200 fsw (7.06 ATA) animals were observed for signs of DCS. Upon DCS onset animals received 100% O(2) and were randomized to receive either saline or PFC. Oxygen administration was continued for 1 h and the primary outcomes of mortality and/or abnormal gait were noted 24 h after surfacing. Results: PFC significantly improved survival, with 18/25 (72%) PFC treated animals and 13/29 (45%) saline treated animals alive at 24 h post-exposure. Objective measures of stance/gait trended toward improvement; spinal cord lesions correlated with severity of stance/gait abnormalities. Conclusion: PFC administered after DCS onset improved survival in this 20-kg swine model. Further study into the mechanisms of benefit and delayed DCS therapy are warranted.

Introduction: Although there has been a steady decline in smoking rates among adults in the United States in recent years, the consumption of smokeless tobacco (ST) continues to increase. Moreover, ST use in the U.S. military is far higher than in the general population. This study was designed to determine the extent of ST use in a military aviation population and measure users' attitudes toward elements of a proposed cessation program. Methods: A study was conducted at two naval aviation training wings in western Florida. The target population (N = 2233) included flight instructors, students, and staff/support personnel who were rated aviators or flight officers. A total of 543 usable questionnaires were returned, yielding a response rate of 24.3%. Results: There were 71 respondents who reported using ST in the last 30 d (13.1%). This group responded favorably to questions regarding the involvement of both medical and dental health professionals as critical components of an effective ST cessation program. Discussion: This survey provides evidence for a rate of ST use among military aviators that is much higher than the U.S. national civilian average of 3.5%. Drawing upon the background of previous dental health-based studies, we propose augmenting existing tobacco cessation resources by creating separate ST cessation programs to reduce ST use among U.S. military aviators.

AB Modern war wounds are complex and primarily involve extremities. They require multiple operative interventions to achieve wound closure and begin rehabilitation. Current assessment of the suitability of surgical wound closure is based upon subjective methods coupled with a semiquantitative determination of the wound bacterial burden. Measurement of the systemic and local response to injury using inflammatory biomarkers may allow for accelerated wound closure and treatment of other combat-related morbidity. This article presents the introduction of personalized medicine into combat casualty care.

AB The United States is merging its two polar-orbiting operational environmental satellite programs operated by the Department of Commerce and the Department of Defense into a single system, which is called the National Polar-orbiting Operational Environmental Satellite System (NPOESS). During the next decade, NPOESS will provide global operational data to meet many of the needs of weather forecasters, climate researchers, and global decision makers for remotely sensed Earth science data and global environmental monitoring. The NPOESS Preparatory Project (NPP) will be launched in 2011 as a precursor to NPOESS to reduce final development risks for NPOESS and to provide continuity of global imaging and atmospheric sounding data from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Earth Observing System (EOS) missions. Beginning in 2014, NPOESS spacecraft will be launched into an afternoon orbit and in 2016 into an early-morning orbit to provide significantly improved operational capabilities and benefits to satisfy critical civil and national security requirements for space-based, remotely sensed environmental data. The European Organisation for the Exploitation of Meteorological Satellites (EUMETSAT) Meteorological Operation (MetOp) spacecraft will complement NPOESS in a midmorning orbit. The joint constellation will provide global coverage with a data refresh rate of approximately four hours. NPOESS will observe more phenomena simultaneously from space and deliver a data volume significantly greater than its operational predecessors with substantially improved data delivery to users. Higher-resolution (spatial and spectral) and more accurate imaging and atmospheric sounding data will enable improvements in short-to medium-range weather forecasts. Multispectral and hyperspectral instruments on NPOESS will provide global imagery and sounding products useful to the forecaster that are complementary to those available from geostationary satellites. NPOESS will support the operational needs of meteorological, oceanographic, environmental, climatic, and space environmental remote sensing programs and provide continuity of data for climate researchers. This article that describes NPOESS was completed and accepted for publication prior to the White House decision in February 2010 ordering a major restructuring of the NPOESS program. The Department of Commerce will now assume primary responsibility for the afternoon polar-orbiting operational environmental satellite orbit and the Department of Defense will take primary responsibility for the early morning orbit. However, NPP, as described in this article, is still scheduled to be launched in 2011. Several of the instruments and program elements described in this article are also likely to be carried forward into future U. S. polar-orbiting operational environmental satellite missions.

AB Objective: This study investigated whether there is a difference in pulmonary function between healthy adult US-born Asian Indians and immigrant Asian Indians attributable to country of birth, environmental, and socioeconomic factors.
Design: FEV(1), FVC, and forced mid-expiratory flow between 25% and 75% of vital capacity (FEF(25-75)) were measured in India-born and US-born subjects residing in the Chicago metropolitan area. Hollingshead Index of Social Position was used to evaluate socioeconomic factors.
Results: There were 262 India-born (61.8% male), and 200 US-born (50% male) subjects who were healthy lifelong nonsmokers; their age range was 16 to 36 years. US-born Asian Indian men and women were taller and had higher pulmonary function values for height and age compared with immigrant Asian Indian men and women. The differences were most pronounced in women: about 7% for FVC, 9% for FEV(1), and 17% for FEF(25-75). Immigrant and US-born subjects did not differ in socioeconomic position.
Conclusion: We conclude that US-born Asian Indian men and women have higher pulmonary function values for age and height compared with immigrant Asian Indian men and women. This probably reflects the effect of differing environmental conditions, which cause year-of-birth trends in lung volumes. CHEST 2010; 137(6):1398-1404

AB Turbulent flow past a finite wing has been computed to assess the fidelity of modern computational fluid dynamics in predicting tip vortex flows. The efficacy of a feature-adaptive local mesh refinement to resolve the steep gradients in the flow field near the tip vortex is demonstrated. The impact of turbulence modeling is evaluated using several popular eddy viscosity models and a Reynolds stress transport model. The results indicate that the combination of a computational mesh with an adequate resolution, high-order spatial discretization scheme along with the use of advanced turbulence models can predict tip vortex flows with acceptable accuracy.

AB We suggest the use of extended landmarks, such as shorelines, creeks, tree lines, and railroads, as well as roads for autonomous navigation of an unmanned air vehicle (UAV). In particular, we recommend the use of shorelines, because of their common availability, their ease of detection, and their significance in terms of events happening along them. Monitoring coastlines and waterways from low flying UAVs has many applications for military and civilian use. We report the development of a vision system that has enabled a prototype UAV to follow shorelines autonomously (without requiring maps or GPS). Using a near-infrared sensor the vision system distinguishes water from land (irrespective of water's color) and issues commands to the autopilot to follow the coastline or the riverbank. One insight of this problem is that the control algorithm could be integrated deeply with the vision system. This has the benefit of delaying smoothing/regularization so that it could occur in the context of the control coordinate system rather than the image or ground coordinate system. The algorithm itself is simple, but it possibly points the way to future algorithms which could more closely couple image processing and control. Furthermore, the experience gained in this work may be of value in the development of vision systems for following other types of paths. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Inc.

AB Although significant progress has been made in clinical development, a protective malaria vaccine remains elusive. Here we review some of the immune subversive mechanisms used by the Plasmodium malaria parasite and propose a potentially effective strategy to achieve complete protection that may serve as a blue print for clinical usage. The premise is to modulate the immune response with drugs that neutralize suppressive functions and potentiate protective responses. Chloroquine may be a first attractive candidate facilitating protective cellular immune responses by improving cross-presentation and reducing suppressive regulatory T cell responses.

DE Construction Management; System Dynamics; Process Improvement;

AB The naval and private construction industries face shared problems in regard to cost over-runs and delays that may be addressed in part through improvements to the construction process. The scope of this study is to examine the naval construction process from design to implementation, with special emphasis on the role of design sharing and constructability. We use the System Dynamics methodology to model the construction process and conduct simulations to examine the impact of project management decisions. We conclude that increased constructability efforts and design sharing mitigate the impact of cost over-runs and project completion delays, and that when limited resources exist it is best to focus improvement efforts early rather than later.

ID MUNICIPAL SOLID-WASTE; BED
AB Energy recovery from food waste was studied using the food service at the US Naval Academy as a case study. Post-consumer food waste was captured over a period of ten days to estimate individual waste per meal and total waste per month. The food waste was analyzed for chemical composition and water content using ultimate and proximate analysis, and for energy content, and compared with the same analyses of wood (a more typical biomass fuel). Three different samples of food waste showed relative uniformity of properties despite being sampled on different days, with different menus. Food waste had lower oxygen content, higher nitrogen and ash content, and higher energy content than wood. The food waste in this study had approximately 70% water content. Temperatures and emissions from combustion of wood pellets, dried pelletized food waste, and dried non-pelletized food waste were measured and compared using a modified residential pellet stove. Temperatures were higher for food waste due to the higher energy content. Emissions of NO, HC, and soot were slightly higher for food waste. Despite the large water content, thermodynamic analysis showed that regenerative dehydration, in which waste energy from the combustion system is used to remove water from the incoming wet fuel, is possible. An excess enthalpy ratio is defined to formalize the comparison of waste sensible enthalpy with the energy required for dehydration. Analysis of fuel-lean combustion and fuel-rich gasification shows that little, if any, external energy would necessarily be required to remove the water from the incoming fuel. An equilibrium model was used to simulate waste food gasification by extending the simulation to high water content levels. Probable ranges for successful food waste gasification are identified. Energy recovery of waste food could result in cost savings by offsetting traditional fuel-use (e.g. natural gas for heating) and by reducing disposal costs. Published by Elsevier Ltd.

AB We study a firm that makes new products in the first period and uses returned cores to make remanufactured products (along with new products) in future periods. The remanufactured product is differentiated from the new product, so the firm needs to choose differentiated prices. We analyze the monopoly environment in two-period, multi-period (three, four and five) and infinite planning horizons, and characterize the optimal remanufacturing and pricing strategy for the firm. In the process, we identify remanufacturing savings thresholds that determine the production and pricing strategy for the firm. Among other results, we find-counter to intuition-that in a finite-horizon, multi-period setting, the optimal policy is not necessarily monotone in remanufacturing savings. Published by Elsevier B.V.

ID TEMPERATURE TREATMENT; HIGH-PRESSURE; BLUE
AB Two historic blue diamonds, the Hope and the Wittelsbach-Graff, appeared together for the first time at the Smithsonian Institution in 2010 Both diamonds were apparently purchased in India in the 17th century and later belonged to European royalty. In addition to the parallels in their histories, their comparable color and bright, long-lasting orange-red phosphorescence have led to speculation that these two diamonds might have come from the same piece of rough. Although the diamonds are similar spectroscopically, their dislocation patterns observed with the Diamond View differ in scale and texture, and they do not show the same internal strain features The results indicate that the two diamonds did not originate from the same crystal, though they likely experienced similar geologic histories.

AB In this paper, we report on recent numerical simulations of inertial-confinement-fusion (ICF) implosions using the FAST radiation hydrocode at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory. Our study focuses on three classes of shock-ignited target designs utilizing less than 1 MJ of direct, krypton-fluoride (KrF) laser energy, which was "zoomed" to maximize the coupling efficiency. In the shock-ignition approach [R. Betti, C.D. Zhou, K.S. Anderson, et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 98 (2007) 155001], a moderate-intensity, compressive laser pulse is followed by a short-duration high-intensity spike that launches a spherically-convergent shock wave to ignite a thick shell of compressed fuel. Such an arrangement appears to offer several significant advantages, including a low ignition threshold, high gain, and less susceptibility to the deleterious effects of hydrodynamic and laser-plasma instabilities. According to one-dimensional simulations, fusion gains over 200 can be achieved with shock-ignited targets using less than 750 kJ of laser energy. This represents a significant improvement in performance over conventional centrally-ignited designs. To examine the stability of these targets, several two-dimensional simulations were also performed that incorporated realistic perturbation sources such as laser imprinting and roughness spectra for inner/outer pellet surfaces. Although the simulations indicate that appreciable low-mode distortion of the fuel shell can occur at late time as a result of these perturbations, high gains are still achieved in many cases owing to the low in-flight aspect ratios of shock-ignited targets. We should remark, though, that the high convergence ratios of these same designs suggest that other sources of low-mode asymmetries, which were not considered in this study (e.g., beam misalignment and energy-balance errors), may be important in determining overall pellet stability and performance. We discuss these issues, as well as other salient design considerations for shock-ignited ICF targets. Published by Elsevier B.V.

AB The Z Accelerator has been used for many years as a research facility for high energy density plasmas, with applications ranging from astrophysics to inertial confinement fusion. The available current at the Z Accelerator (>15 MA) has also allowed for experiments over a wide range of K-shell X-ray sources, including Al (similar to 1.6 key), Ar (similar to 3.1 key), Ti (similar to 4.8 key), stainless steel (SS, similar to 6.7 key), and Cu (similar to 8.4 keV). The K-shell sources provide excellent opportunities for studying the details of a z-pinch through radiated output in various photon energy regimes, imaging, and spectroscopy. Variations in initial load configurations illustrate the difficulty in achieving appropriate plasma conditions for K-shell emissions, particularly for stainless steel and Cu. The requirement for large diameter loads (>40 mm) enhances the growth of the magnetic Rayleigh-Taylor instability during the implosion; evidence of this instability is presented in stagnated pinch data. Data from a variety of K-shell sources and load configurations are presented and discussed to illustrate the details of the imploding and stagnated z pinches. The application of existing and modified scaling theories to the K-shell data is also described, as are multidimensional calculations that can be directly compared to the experimental observations. The recent refurbishment of the Z Accelerator will ultimately increase the coupled energy available to a load, with an anticipated peak current of 26 MA into a wire array. The current waveforms measured to date are presented, along with a brief discussion of the current status of K-shell work at the Z Accelerator. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

AB The development of a new experimental system for generating a strong shear flow in a high-energy-density plasma is described in detail. The targets were designed with the goal of producing a diagnosable Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability, which plays an important role in the transition turbulence but remains relatively unexplored in the high-energy-density regime. To generate the shear flow the Nike laser was used to drive a flow of Al plasma over a low-density foam surface with an initial perturbation. The interaction of the Al and foam was captured with a spherical crystal imager using 1.86 keV X-rays. The selection of the individual targets components is discussed and results are presented.

AB Objective: We examined the effect of interruption modality (visual or auditory) on primary task (visual) resumption to determine which modality was the least disruptive.
Background: Theories examining interruption modality have focused on specific periods of the interruption timeline. Preemption theory has focused on the switch from the primary task to the interrupting task. Multiple resource theory has focused on interrupting tasks that are to be performed concurrently with the primary task. Our focus was on examining how interruption modality influences task resumption. We leverage the memory-for-goals theory, which suggests that maintaining an associative link between environmental cues and the suspended primary task goal is important for resumption.
Method: Three interruption modality conditions were examined: auditory interruption with the primary task visible, auditory interruption with a blank screen occluding the primary task, and a visual interruption occluding the primary task. Reaction time and eye movement data were collected.
Results: The auditory condition with the primary task visible was the least disruptive. Eye movement data suggest that participants in this condition were actively maintaining an associative link between relevant environmental cues on the primary task interface and the suspended primary task goal during the interruption.
Conclusion: These data suggest that maintaining cue association is the important factor for reducing the disruptiveness of interruptions, not interruption modality.
Application: Interruption-prone computing environments should be designed to allow for the user to have access to relevant primary task cues during an interruption to minimize disruptiveness.

AB A system for processing Cloud-Aerosol Lidar with Orthogonal Polarization (CALIOP) satellite-based 0.532 and 1.064 mu m elastic and polarization lidar datasets for global aerosol transport model assimilation is described. A method for constructing one-degree along-track and cloud-free signal composite averages, consistent with Navy Aerosol Analysis and Prediction System (NAAPS) model gridding, using CALIOP Level 1B attenuated backscatter and Level 2 cloud boundary-height products is outlined. Optimal vertical resolutions and relative signal uncertainties for the composite signal averages are described for both day and nighttime measurement scenarios. Depolarization profiles are described for the 0.532 mu m channel as well as attenuated color ratio profiles using 0.532 and 1.064 mu m attenuated backscatter measurements. Constrained by NAAPS model aerosol optical depths, processed attenuated backscatter profiles are inverted to solve for extinction and backscatter coefficients, their ratio, and extinction coefficient profiles which serve as the basis for data assimilation.

AB Safety-critical software-intensive systems of systems require rigorous verification and validation to ensure that they function as per requirements. Unlike verification, validation is typically an ill-defined activity for software development. This paper presents a well-defined validation metrics framework which uses hazard analysis, and the derived software requirements for mitigating the identified hazards, as proxies in gauging the sufficiency of the software safety requirements early in the software development process. Moreover, traditional hazard analysis techniques are insufficient to deal with the complexity and size of systems of systems. This paper examines the nature and types of hazards associated with systems of systems and presents a new technique for analyzing one type of emergent hazard known as an interface hazard.

AB An approach to fabricate a set of simultaneously operating dual-UV-wavelength detectors is described. The fabrication flow relies on the confined-epitaxy growth method. The confined epitaxial Al(x)Ga(1-x)N-layer stacking approach is used to establish simultaneous multiple UV-wavelength detection. The chosen stoichiometries of specific epitaxial layers set the wavelength sensitivity at approximately 355 nm for pixel A and 320 nm for pixel B. Spectral responsivity plots of the detectors clearly show the dual-UV-color sensitivity of the pair. The detectors have signal-to-noise ratios of 15 and 17 and spectral responsivity values of 0.12 A/W and 0.05 A/W for pixel A and pixel B, respectively.

AB The potential of InAs quantum-dot (QD) photodetectors for room-temperature high-speed operation at wavelengths near 1.3 mu m is evaluated. Specifically, planar metal-semiconductor-metal structures on GaAs substrates containing one absorption layer of self-assembled InAs QDs embedded in Ga(In)As matrices are fabricated, characterized, and analyzed. Light absorption, optically generated carrier transport, and collection mechanisms are studied. The role of the QD embedding matrix in the lateral transport of the photogenerated carriers is also studied by comparing structures with QDs in GaAs and In(0.15)Ga(0.85) As matrices. Devices show low dark currents in tens of nanoamperes and high light sensitivity when adjusted to QD volumes, whereas external quantum efficiency remains in the range 10(-5)-10(-4) for all fabricated samples. The time response of the fabricated devices is obtained using an excitation wavelength resonant with QD interband transitions, thus allowing the photogeneration of electron-hole pairs inside the dots. Results prove detection capability of a single layer of QDs in a common photodetector structure with a full-width half-maximum time response on the order of 10 ps. A long tail, about 100 ps, but at a small fraction of the peak response amplitude, is also observed, suggesting mechanisms for charge transport and collection.

DE Aloha; cellular; channel traffic; collision channel; multiple
destinations; random access
AB We study cellular-like wireless networks in which the cells may overlap substantially, and a common channel is used for all cells. Thus, transmissions intended for one destination (or base station) can cause interference at neighboring destinations. We assume the use of a "collision-channel" model, in which arbitrary communication and interference regions are associated with each destination. The interaction between such cells is best exemplified if the protocol of access in each cell is pure random access, i.e., Slotted Aloha. We derive a mathematical formula for the maximum achievable throughput for multiple-cell networks that satisfy a "balance" condition, which is related to (but not as stringent as) symmetry. This formula implies that the throughput achieved in a cell is affected only by the degree of overlap with adjacent cells, i.e., a cell's throughput is not affected by transmissions that are outside of its interference region. Moreover, we show that, at the point of maximum throughput, the expected channel traffic is one packet per slot in each cell, an extension of the result obtained many years ago for single-destination networks.

AB This paper investigates the properties of a three-slot doubly periodic staggered-ladder sheet-beam coupled-cavity slow-wave structure (SWS) developed at the U. S. Naval Research Laboratory. The structure is overmoded with complicated mode crossings and field structures. The staggered-ladder structure is compared to round-beam structures via full-wave electromagnetic simulations and experimental measurements. We explore the application of this SWS in a traveling-wave tube amplifier.

TI Transient Effects in an X-Band Magnicon Amplifier

DT Article
DE High-power RF; magnicon; transient effects
ID DEFLECTION; BEAM
AB The Naval Research Laboratory X-band magnicon is a frequency-doubling amplifier for accelerator applications at 11.4 GHz, with high power (10-20 MW), adjustable pulsewidth (200 ns-1 mu s), stable gain (> 50 dB), and a modest tuning range (similar to 0.1%) but a narrow bandwidth (a few megahertz). The magnicon is the heart of a facility to study dielectric-loaded accelerating structures, and to drive a compact linear accelerator. In these applications, frequency control is important. However, it was recently observed that in short pulse (similar to 200 ns) operation, the output frequency does not match twice the drive frequency. This paper presents a brief description and analysis of this phenomenon as well as other transient effects that are observed in longer pulses.

TI Progress Toward Externally Powered X-Band Dielectric-Loaded Accelerating
Structures
SO IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PLASMA SCIENCE

DT Article
DE Dielectric breakdown; dielectric-loaded accelerator; high-power RF;
multipactor
AB We summarize recent progress in a program to develop externally powered dielectric-loaded accelerating (DLA) structures that can sustain high accelerating gradients. High-power RF tests of earlier structures showed strong multipactor loading. In addition, arcing at dielectric joints between the uniform DLA structure and matching sections at either end limited the achievable gradient. In this paper, we study the onset of multipactor in a DLA structure. We also study the effect of thin-film TiN coatings applied by atomic layer deposition and the effect of a reduction in the inner diameter of the structure. Test results of these structures show significant decreases in multipactor loading. We also test new structure designs that eliminate separate dielectric matching sections and, thus, the requirement for dielectric joints, including a DLA structure using a coaxial coupler and a clamped DLA structure. The clamped structure demonstrated a significantly improved gradient without breakdown.

DE Alternating direction implicit (ADI); slow-wave structure; vacuum

ID MICROWAVE SOURCES; EQUATIONS; DEVICES; CODE; MAGY
AB A modified complex-envelope (CE) alternating-direction-implicit (ADI) finite-difference time-domain solver for electromagnetic (EM) fields is presented. Like the conventional ADI scheme, the modified scheme is based on splitting the time step into two halves. In each substep, Maxwell's equations are solved implicitly in one direction and explicitly in the perpendicular direction. The new scheme is a combination of the conventional CE-ADI scheme and the leapfrog ADI scheme that was recently reported. The main features are a more compact form of the tridiagonal equations and greater flexibility in the application of boundary conditions. The boundary conditions on the six faces of the solution box are general and can be specified either as perfect conductor, symmetry boundary conditions, cavity modes, or arbitrary external specification. The new compact CE-ADI scheme is unconditionally stable; thus, the time step can be larger than the one imposed by the Courant-Friedrichs-Lewy (CFL) condition. Fast stable EM simulations of a planar slow-wave structure are demonstrated, with time steps exceeding the CFL limit by two orders of magnitude.

DT Article
DE Hybrid architectures; integrated systems
ID INTELLIGENCE; NETWORKS
AB We describe a cognitive architecture for creating more robust intelligent systems. Our approach is to enable hybrids of algorithms based on different computational formalisms to be executed. The architecture ismotivated by some features of human cognitive architecture and the following beliefs: 1) Most existing computational methods often exhibit some of the characteristics desired of intelligent systems at the cost of other desired characteristics and 2) a system exhibiting robust intelligence can be designed by implementing hybrids of these computational methods. The main obstacle to this approach is that the various relevant computational methods are based on data structures and algorithms that are difficult to integrate into one system. We describe a new method of executing hybrids of algorithms using the focus of attention of multiple modules. The key to this approach is the following two principles: 1) Algorithms based on very different computational frameworks (e. g., logical reasoning, probabilistic inference, and case-based reasoning) can be implemented using the same set of five common functions and 2) each of these common functions can be executed using multiple data structures and algorithms. This approach has been embodied in the Polyscheme cognitive architecture. Systems based on Polyscheme in planning, spatial reasoning, robotics, and information retrieval illustrate that this approach to hybridizing algorithms enables qualitative and measurable quantitative advances in the abilities of intelligent systems.
