    Notes: Magnetization measurements for the compound SmCo3B2 have been performed on loose powder in magnetic fields to 5 T and in the temperature region from 4.2 to 60 K. A small saturation moment of 0.18 μB/SmCo3B2 at T=4.2 K and its variation with increasing temperature suggest ferrimagnetic ordering in SmCo3B2, which is explained as the effect of a higher order crystalline field coefficient. A magnetic first order transition occurs at T=43 K and metamagnetism occurs in the narrow temperature region between 43 and 47 K, for which some possible discussions are given. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Global stability of the field-reversed configuration (FRC) has been investigated numerically using both three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic and hybrid (fluid electron and δf particle ion) simulations. The stabilizing effects of velocity shear and finite ion Larmor radius (FLR) on the n=1 internal tilt mode in the prolate FRCs have been studied. Sheared rotation is found to reduce the growth rate, however a large rotation rate with Mach number of M(approximately-greater-than)1 is required in order for significant reduction in the instability growth rate to occur. Kinetic effects associated with large thermal ion orbits have been studied for different kinetic equilibria. The simulations show that there is a reduction in the tilt mode growth rate due to FLR effects, but complete linear stability has not been found, even when the thermal ion gyroradius is comparable to the distance between the field null and the separatrix. The instability existing beyond the FLR theory threshold could be due to the resonant interaction of the wave with ions whose Doppler shifted frequency matches the betatron frequency. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The role of turbulence in the process of magnetic reconnection has been the subject of a great deal of study and debate in the theoretical literature. At issue in this debate is whether turbulence is essential for fast magnetic reconnection to occur in collisionless current sheets. Some theories claim it is necessary in order to provide anomalous resistivity, while others present a laminar fast reconnection mechanism based on the Hall term in the generalized Ohm's law. In this work, a thorough study of electrostatic potential fluctuations in the current sheet of the magnetic reconnection experiment (MRX) [Yamada et al., Phys. Plasmas 4, 1936 (1997)] was performed in order to ascertain the importance of turbulence in a laboratory reconnection experiment. Using amplified floating Langmuir probes, broadband fluctuations in the lower hybrid frequency range (fLH∼5–15 MHz) were measured which arise with the formation of the current sheet in MRX. The frequency spectrum, spatial amplitude profile, and spatial correlation characteristics of the measured turbulence were examined carefully, finding consistency with theories of the lower-hybrid drift instability (LHDI). The LHDI and its role in magnetic reconnection has been studied theoretically for decades, but this work represents the first detection and detailed study of the LHDI in a laboratory current sheet. The observation of the LHDI in MRX has provided the unique opportunity to uncover the role of this instability in collisionless reconnection. It was found that: (1) the LHDI fluctuations are confined to the low-beta edge of current sheets in MRX; (2) the LHDI amplitude does not correlate well in time or space with the reconnection electric field, which is directly related to the rate of reconnection; and (3) significant LHDI amplitude persists in high-collisionality current sheets where the reconnection rate is classical. These findings suggest that the measured LHDI fluctuations do not play an essential role in determining the reconnection rate in MRX. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Ion heating and acceleration has been studied in the well-characterized reconnection layer of the Magnetic Reconnection Experiment [M. Yamada et al., Phys. Plasmas 4, 1936 (1997)]. Ion temperature in the layer rises substantially during null-helicity reconnection in which reconnecting field lines are anti-parallel. The plasma outflow is sub-Alfvénic due to a downstream back pressure. An ion energy balance calculation based on the data and including classical viscous heating indicates that ions are heated largely via nonclassical mechanisms. The Ti rise is much smaller during co-helicity reconnection in which field lines reconnect obliquely. This is consistent with a slower reconnection rate and a smaller resistivity enhancement over the Spitzer value. These observations show that nonclassical dissipation mechanisms can play an important role both in heating the ions and in facilitating the reconnection process. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Global stability of the oblate (small elongation, E〈1) Field-Reversed Configuration (FRC) has been investigated numerically using both three-dimensional magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) and hybrid (fluid electrons and kinetic ions) simulations. For every nonzero value of the toroidal mode number n, there are three MHD modes that must be stabilized. For n=1, these are the interchange, the tilt and the radial shift; while for n〉1 these are the interchange and two co-interchange modes with different polarization. It is shown that the n=1 tilt mode becomes an external mode when E〈1, and it can be effectively stabilized by close-fitting conducting shells, even in the small Larmor radii (MHD) regime. The tilt mode stability improves with increasing oblateness, however at sufficiently small elongations the radial shift mode becomes more unstable than the tilt mode. The interchange mode stability is strongly profile dependent, and all n≥1 interchange modes can be stabilized for a class of pressure profile with separatrix beta larger than 0.035. Our results show that all three n=1 modes can be stabilized in the MHD regime, but the stabilization of the n〉1 co-interchange modes still remains an open question. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Neuronal progenitor cells (NPC) are particularly suited as the target population for genetic and cellular therapy of neurological disorders such as Parkinson's disease or stroke. However, genetic modification of these cells using retroviral vectors remains a great challenge because of the low transduction rate and the need for fetal calf serum (FCS) during the transduction process that induces the cell differentiation to mature neurons. To overcome these problems, we developed a new retrovirus production system in which the simplified retroviral vector GCDNsap engineered to be resistant to denovo methylation was packaged in the vesicular stomatitis virus G protein (VSV-G), concentrated by centrifugation, and resuspended in serum-free medium (StemPro-34 SFM). In transduction experiments using enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) as a marker, the concentrated FCS-free virus supernatant infected NPC at a high rate, while maintaining the ability of these cells to self-renew and differentiate in vitro. When such cells were grafted into mouse brains, EGFP-expressing NPC were detected in the region around the injection site at 8 weeks post transplantation. These findings suggest that the gene transfer system described here may provide a useful tool to genetically modify NPC for treatments of neurological disorders.

    Notes: The lattice vibrational properties of new semiconductor alloys, GaAs1−xBix and InAs1−xBix, are reported. These alloys, which were grown by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy technique, contain a small amount (1.2%–3.8%) of Bi. A detail Raman scattering study of these new alloys, which exhibit weak temperature dependence of the band gap with increasing amount of Bi, is reported here. Good crystalline quality and spatial homogeneity was confirmed using micro-Raman technique. The alloys show ternary compound behavior, confirming substitutional incorporation of Bi into the lattice site. New vibrational modes observed were assigned to GaBi-like and InBi-like modes. In addition, phonon-plasmon coupled modes and vibrational modes corresponding to Bi and As materials were also observed. Results are discussed to characterize these new alloys in detail. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Globally coherent modes have been observed during formation in the S-1 Spheromak plasma [Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion 1984 (IAEA, Vienna, Austria, 1985), Vol. 2, p. 535] by analysis of magnetic field fluctuations measured from outside the plasma. The modes are of low n number (2≤n≤5), where n is defined by the functional dependence einφ of the fluctuation on toroidal angle φ. These modes are shown to be related to flux conversion and plasma relaxation toward a minimum-energy state during the spheromak formation. The modes are active while the q profile is rapidly changing, with q on axis, q0, rising to 0.7. A significant finding is the temporal progression through the n=5, 4, 3, 2; m=1 mode sequence as q rises through rational fractions m/n. During formation, peak amplitudes of the n=2, 3, 4 modes relative to the unperturbed field have been observed as high as 20%, while more typical amplitudes are below 5%.
