    Notes: Summary Isotonic contractions of the rabbit jejunal artery were evoked by perivascular nerve stimulation with trains of 10 or 100 stimuli at 2 Hz or 10 Hz. Short trains of stimuli elicited contractions that were totally resistant to α-adrenoceptor blockade (0.1 μmol/l prazosin) but blocked by α,β-methylene ATP (1 μmol/l). A substantial noradrenergic component of contraction comprising about 50% of the total could be evoked by adjusting the stimulation parameters (increasing the frequency and/or number of stimuli in a train). The noradrenergic and the purinergic components are derived from sympathetic nerves as both were blocked by TTX and the adrenergic neurone blocker guanethidine (3 μmol/l). It is concluded that the contraction of the rabbit jejunal artery to short trains of stimuli is predominantly purinergic, a nor-adrenergic component only being revealed at higher frequencies of stimulation or during longer trains of stimuli. The purinergic component of contraction is derived from sympathetic nerves and not from a separate population of purinergic nerves.

    Notes: Abstract An algorithm is presented for the design of optimal detection filters in radar and communications systems, subject to inequality constraints on the maximum output sidelobe levels. This problem was reduced in an earlier paper (Ref. 1) to an unconstrained one in the dual space of regular Borel measures, with a nondifferentiable cost functional. Here, the dual problem is solved via steepest descent, using the directional Gateaux differential. The algorithm is shown to be convergent, and numerical results are presented.
