    Notes: A slotted plate photodiode beam position monitor was built and installed on a user beam line. The detector is positioned in front of the first optical component of the beam line intercepting ∼3 mrad of synchrotron radiation. A 25-μm-thick Be foil strongly attenuates photons with hν〈800 eV and improves the position sensitivity by reducing the vertical angular divergence of the effective photon beam by more than a factor of 10. With a 125-μm gap at 45° angle between the diode plates, the detector has a linear working range of ∼±800 μm. The vertical position sensitivity of the beam position monitor is ∼5 μm.

    Notes: The performance of a toroidal grating monochromator can be significantly improved by compensating for the wavelength dependent defocusing aberration by means of a movable exit slit. Model calculations of a movable exit slit design show a resolving power that varies nearly linearly with wavelength over the scan range. The energy resolution follows the slope between two optimized resolution minima of a fixed slit TGM. The overall improvement in resolution due to the movable slit depends critically on the figure error of the toroid surface. The Al(LII,III) core edges provide a means to calibrate gratings and determine the resolution at 72.8 eV. A method is described for using the shift in core edge with exit slit position to enable final alignment of the exit slit motion providing stability of energy calibration of 2 meV over the scan range. Comparison of calculations and measured resolution suggests that slope errors remain the limiting factor in performance.

    Notes: There is a wealth of new knowledge regarding mechanisms of carcinogenesis and their interaction with senescence and environmental insults, particularly on the effects of UV irradiation on the skin. Innovations and advances in tissue culture techniques now permit in vitro studies of keratinocytes and other benign and malignant skin-derived cells. The ageing processes and cutaneous neoplasia, therefore, can now be studied at the cellular level. New insights regarding the interrelationship of ageing, environment and cutaneous neoplasia are close at hand. Depletion in the number of Langerhans cells and suppression of their function in ageing and UV-exposed skin may allow tumour cells to overcome the host's defence system. The potential increase in UV irradiation due to depletion of the ozone layer may increase the incidence of skin tumours. Carcinogenesis involves three distinct steps: initiation, promotion, and malignant conversion. The mechanism has been studied in mice, where it is suggested the c-ras oncogene may play an important role.

    Notes: Abstract U-Pb isotopic relations in zircon and titanite of granulite and amphibolite gneisses in the Lewisian complex and bordering Laxford Front reveal complex discordance patterns indicating multiple Late Archean and Early Proterozoic crystallization, overgrowth and Pb-loss events. The earliest stages in the evolution of the complex remain poorly resolved. Zircon ages of ≥2710 Ma date high-grade metamorphism and magmatism probably related to tectonic and magmatic accretion in a continental arc setting. A distinct event at 2490–2480 Ma, possibly initiated by metamorphism and deformation at high-grade conditions, caused amphibolitization of the granulites and emplacement of granitic pegmatites. This event can be correlated with development of Inverian shear zones and formation of granitoid layers along the Laxford Front. The emplacement of a younger generation of granitoid sheets during the Laxfordian event fromed hydrothermal titanite at ≥1754 Ma in gneisses south of the Laxford Bridge and partially reset older titanite at Scourie. Growth of secondary titanite and rutile also occurred during subsequent low-grade metamorphism at 1690–1670 Ma.

    Notes: Abstract The influence of increasing atmospheric CO2 on shoot growth, leaf nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations and carbohydrate composition was investigated in cotton and wheat. Shoot dry weight of both species was generally higher at elevated CO2, especially at high rates of available soil N and P. Critical leaf N concentration was reduced but critical P concentration was increased in both species at high CO2.

    Notes: Abstract Significant species differences have been demonstrated in gastric physiology, a factor that limits extrapolation of animal data to man. Primate physiology is thought to be similar to that of man; however, gastric function has not been adequately documented in the primate. In the present study six baboons (body weight 25.5±1.8 kg) were trained to sit in a chair and gastric acid secretion and gastrin release was studied in conscious animals. Mean basal acid secretion was 1.3±0.1 mmol (H+)/hr. Maximum output after pentagastrin (12 μg/kg/hr) was 9.5±0.9 mmol (H+)/hr and 11.0±0.4 mmol (H+)/hr after histamine (40 μg/kg/hr). A statistically significant (by cosinor analysis) circadian rhythm was demonstrated for intragastric pH over 24 hr in fasted baboons (P〈0.001). Mean basal serum gastrin level was 37.7±8.3 pg/ml. The integrated gastrin response after administration of a protein rich meal was 2.52±0.07 ng×min/ml and this increased to 5.17±0.18 ng×min/ml (P〈0.05) following simultaneous administration of a meal with atropine (0.2 mg/kg) (P〈0.05). Our results suggest that there is significant basal and stimulated acid secretion in the baboon; the amount of acid secreted is similar to that reported in man. Gastric pH demonstrated a circadian rhythm. Postprandial gastrin release was significantly enhanced by cotreatment with atropine. As the present findings are similar to those previously reported in man, the baboon may be a useful model for further studies in gastric physiology and experimental peptic ulceration.
