    Notes: Abiotic stress induced by three concentrations of nutrients in solution, and biotic stress caused by three inoculum densities of Phytophthora nicotianae, were imposed on tomato plants grown hydroponically under natural light in the glasshouse. The pathogen causes stem and root rot, thereby inducing water deficiency symptoms. The progress of the disease, as measured serologically by DAC–ELISA, was markedly accelerated by enhanced concentrations of nutrients. Significant differences in proline content of infected and noninfected plants were observed at a nutrient concentration equivalent to 5·0 dS m−1. Higher nutrient concentrations increased further proline concentration in leaves. Inoculation of tomatoes under two light regimes in a phytotron produced significantly more affected roots with increasing inoculum density, but disease was not affected by different light treatments. However, higher light intensity accelerated the appearance of symptoms and produced higher proline contents in tomato leaves. It is suggested that the proline content of tomato leaves is a suitable marker for stress induced by both abiotic and biotic factors.

    Notes: A two-year study of recirculating induction heavy ion accelerators as low-cost driver for inertial-fusion energy applications was recently completed. The projected cost of a 4 MJ accelerator was estimated to be about $500 M (million) and the efficiency was estimated to be 35%. The principal technology issues include energy recovery of the ramped dipole magnets, which is achieved through use of ringing inductive/capacitive circuits, and high repetition rates of the induction cell pulsers, which is accomplished through arrays of field effect transistor (FET) switches. Principal physics issues identified include minimization of particle loss from interactions with the background gas, and more demanding emittance growth and centroid control requirements associated with the propagation of space-charge-dominated beams around bends and over large path lengths. In addition, instabilities such as the longitudinal resistive instability, beam-breakup instability and betatron-orbit instability were found to be controllable with careful design.

    Notes: The development of ion sources for heavy ion fusion will be reported with particular emphasis on a recently built 2 MV injector. The new injector is based on an electrostatic quadrupole configuration, and has produced pulsed K+ ions of 950 mA peak from a 6.7 in. curved alumino silicate source. The ion beam has reached 2.3 MV with an energy flatness of ±0.2% over 1 μs. The measured normalized edge emittance of less than 1 π mm mrad is close to the source temperature limit. The design, construction, performance, and comparisons with three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations will be described. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The failure behavior of mortar under dynamic impact loading is characterized through a series of plate impact experiments. The analysis focuses on the spall strength and the shear stress carrying capacity in different regions of the specimen under normal impact loading. Special attention is paid to the possible existence of a failure wave phenomenon that has been widely recognized as an important failure mechanism for glasses during plate impact. The experiments are designed to allow the strengths of the medium at locations behind and ahead of a possible failure wave front to be analyzed. The diagnostics used include velocity interferometer system for any reflector (VISAR) recording of the free surface velocities of targets and monitoring of the internal stresses via polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) gauges embedded in the specimen. Experiments conducted do not provide evidence for the existence of a failure wave phenomenon for mortar under plate normal impact loading. While the study suggests that a threshold impact stress must be exceeded for failure to occur, a clearly defined failure wave that propagates behind the loading wave is not observed. Instead, a gradual failure process that initiates upon the arrival of the loading wave and progresses thereafter is observed. This gradual failure process in mortar is in contrast to the well-defined failure front and complete loss of tensile strength associated with the failure wave phenomenon reported for glasses. The study also indicates that, under impact involving high levels of input stresses, attenuation of the loading wave occurs as it propagates through the failed medium. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Some representative examples of a new family of aminimide monomers, i.e., trialkylamine N-acryloyl or N-methacryloyl glycinimides and β-aminopropanimides have been prepared and studied. These are the first examples of a possible large family of primary aminimide monomers. With radical initiators, the acryloyl and monosubstituted methacryloyl monomers readily homopolymerize. The disubstituted methacryloyl aminimides do not homopolymerize under the same conditions. All of the new monomers copolymerize with styrene, methyl methacrylate, and n-butyl acrylate. The various polymers were characterized by IR, DTA, TGA, GPC and inherent viscosities. When heated (160°C) the polymers liberate amine and crosslink in the presence of active hydrogen moieties to give resins with carbamate, urea, allophonate, etc., residues. When no active hydrogens are available during heating, polymers can be prepared with pendent primary isocyanate groups. This preliminary work shows these monomers to be highly useful for preparing a wide variety of reactive copolymers.
