    Notes: The electron temperature (Te) profile in neutral beam-heated supershot plasmas (Te0∼6–7 keV ion temperature Ti0∼15–20 keV, beam power Pb∼16 MW) was remarkably invariant when radiative losses were increased significantly through gas puffing of krypton and xenon in the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor [McGuire et al., Phys. Plasmas 2, 2176 (1995)]. Trace impurity concentrations (nz/ne∼10−3) generated almost flat and centrally peaked radiation profiles, respectively, and increased the radiative losses to 45%–90% of the input power (from the normal ∼25%). Energy confinement was not degraded at radiated power fractions up to 80%. A 20%–30% increase in Ti, in spite of an increase in ion–electron power loss, implies a factor of ∼3 drop in the local ion thermal diffusivity. These experiments form the basis for a nearly ideal test of transport theory, since the change in the beam heating power profile is modest, while the distribution of power flow between (1) radiation and (2) conduction plus convection changes radically and is locally measurable. The decrease in Te was significantly less than predicted by two transport models and may provide important tests of more complete transport models. At input power levels of 30 MW, the increased radiation eliminated the catastrophic carbon influx (carbon "bloom") and performance (energy confinement and neutron production) was improved significantly relative to that of matched shots without impurity gas puffing. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Perturbative experiments on the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor [Phys. Plasmas 4, 1736 (1997)] (TFTR) have investigated transport in reverse shear plasmas. On TFTR, reverse magnetic shear plasmas bifurcate into two states with different transport properties: reverse shear (RS) and enhanced reverse shear (ERS) with improved core confinement. Measurements of the 14 MeV t(d,n)α neutrons and charge-exchange recombination radiation spectra are used to infer the trace tritium and helium profiles, respectively. The profile evolution indicate the formation of core particle transport barriers in ERS plasmas. The transport barrier is manifested by an order-of-magnitude reduction in the particle diffusivity (DT,DHe) and a smaller reduction in the pinch within the reverse shear region. The low diffusivities are consistent with neoclassical predictions. Furthermore, DT and DHe(approximate)χeff, the effective thermal diffusivity. Although the measured coefficients imply no helium ash accumulation, the situation is uncertain in a reactor due to unknown χeff scaling.

    Notes: Tritium on the inside walls of the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor was detected by configuring the vacuum vessel as an ionization chamber and measuring the secondary electron current from the tritium beta decay. The vessel was typically filled with (approximate)5 Torr of dry nitrogen and the secondary electron current was collected by an internal electrode biased to about +15 V with respect to the vessel wall. The measured variations of the collected current with gas pressure, bias voltage, and applied magnetic fields are described, as well as an in situ calibration made by injecting a known amount of tritium gas. Improved versions of this diagnostic may be useful to track the in-vessel content of surface tritium in future fusion devices. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A novel system was developed, which allows one to switch the wavelength of a narrow-band excimer laser between two successive light pulses at a repetition rate of at least 250 Hz. This is realized by a periodically driven piezo actuator, which is attached to the diffraction grating of the narrow-band KrF excimer laser. The achieved position accuracy of the grating leads to a wavelength reproducibility of ±0.2 pm, which allows one to apply this system to laser spectroscopic investigations like LIF or LIPF of OH in flames. Using the fast wavelength switching system background reduced concentration and temperature fields in flames can be measured within one sequence. Some possible realized and planned applications like the measurement of gas temperature, the diagnostic of turbulent combustion processes, and the investigation of combustion processes under microgravity are discussed. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Three potential methods for evaluating the surface tritium content of the TFTR vacuum vessel are described, each based on a different technique for measuring the in situ beta emission from tritium. These methods should be able to provide both a local and a global assessment of the tritium content within the top ≈1 μm of the inner wall surface. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract: We investigated the expression of regulatory (R) and catalytic (C) subunits of cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase (cAK; ATP:protein phosphotransferase; EC 2.7.1.37) in the bovine pineal gland. In total RNA extracts of bovine pineal glands moderate levels of RIα/RIIβ and high levels of Cα and Cβ mRNA were found. We were able to detect a strong signal for RII and C subunit at the protein level, whereas RI was apparently absent. Probing sections of the intact bovine pineal gland with RI and RII antibodies stained only RII in pinealocytes. Pairs of cyclic AMP analogues complementing each other in activation of type II cAK, but not cAKI-directed analogue pairs, showed synergistic stimulation of melatonin synthesis. Moreover, melatonin synthesis stimulated by the physiological activator norepinephrine in pineal cell cultures was inhibited by cAK antagonists. Taken together these results show the presence of RII regulatory and both Cα and Cβ catalytic subunits and thus cAKII holoenzyme in the bovine pineal gland. The almost complete inhibition of norepinephrine-mediated melatonin synthesis by the cAK antagonists emphasizes the dominant role of cyclic AMP as the second messenger and cAK as the transducer in bovine pineal signal transduction.

    Notes: Summary Despite the widespread use of corticosteroids on the mucous membranes of the nose, eye and bronchial tree, mucosal contact sensitivity has apparently been uncommon. However, since the introductinn of now corticosteroids such us tixocortol pivalate and budosonide, mucosal conlact sensitivity, particularly that affecting the nasal mucosa, has increasingly been reported. Contact allergy on other mucosal surfaces and in the bronchial tree is very rare. We report three women who had contact allergy to tixocortol pivalate or budesonide in nasal sprays, and one woman who had an allergic contact stomatitis from tixocortol pivalate in oral lozenges.

    Notes: Respiratory Activity in Leaves from Herbs in the Tropical Rain Forest.—Plants of the undergrowth flora In the tropical lowland rain forest have typical shade-leaves distinguished by low dry matter percent, large leaf area per gram fresh weight and very low respiratory intensity per unit area of leaf blade. When the respiratory intensity measured at 26°C is converted to 20°C, the values lie somewhat lower than those for extreme shade-leaves of the temperate forests of Denmark. The leaf blades of Lomariopsis guineensis have on the whole the lowest respiratory intensity so far measured in leaf blades: 0.06 mg CO2 per 50 cm2 leaf blade (one side only) and hour at 20°C. The semisucculent shade-leaves of Palisota hirsuta constitute an exception with regard to area per gram fresh weight, in which respect they resemble the semi-succulent shade-leaves of the fern Ophioglossum vulgatum in Denmark.Die Bodenflora von höheren Pflanzen in einem tropischen Regenurwald im Tiefland besteht teils aus Kräutern, teils aus kleinen Bäumen, die eventuell zu grossen heranzuwachsen vermögen; dagegen sind absolut keine Straucher vorhanden. Die Blatter von einigen Kräutern im Urwald bei Adiopodoumé, Elfenbeinsküste, (5°, 20’ nördl. Br, 4°, 10’ west. L) wurden untersucht und zwar folgende: Aframomum sceptrum Schum. (Zingiberaceae), Palisota hirsuta Schum. (Commelinaceae) und Lomariopsis guineensis Kuhn (Farn aus der Familie Polypodiaceae).

    Notes: Abstract The validity of the quasi-particle approximation for the two-point function in nuclear physics is tested by means of one-particle strengths taken from (d, p) reactions. It is found that in general the quasi-particle approximation is not justified.

    Notes: Abstract It is shown that a separable potential represents an interaction acting only in a onedimensional subspace of Hubert-space. Thus the particular rôle played by the collective state in the schematic model is a consequence of the simplifications made in replacing realistic forces by a separable potential.
