    Notes: Abstract —The Coupled Ocean/Atmosphere Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS) is used to investigate the mutual response of a tropical squall line and the ocean. Simulated squall line compares well with the observations, and consists of counterrotating vortices, and has a bow shape bulge toward the leading edge. In addition to these features, which are also shown in the previous numerical simulations, the unique results from the coupled simulation indicate that the air–sea interaction processes within the squall line are important. They affect both the atmosphere and the ocean locally. Simulated upper ocean displays significant response to the squall line with upwelling and baroclinicity. Depth of the ocean mixed layer in the coupled simulation becomes modified due to feedback processes. Ocean temperature acts as a destabilizing factor, and the salinity as a stabilizing factor. Surface turbulent fluxes from the coupled simulation are about 10% less than that of the uncoupled simulation. The SST in the coupled simulation decreases by about 0.21°C. Predicted squall line in the coupled simulation is weaker as compared to the uncoupled simulation. This is reflected in terms of differences in surface fluxes, cloud water, rain water and vertical velocities between the two simulations.

    Notes: Abstract. Ceramide has been reported to induce typical apoptotic changes in nuclei incubated in a cell-free system, and that the addition of ceramide bypasses the requirement for mitochondria. Here, we explore the possible pathways by which ceramide induces apoptosis either in intact cells or in a cell-free system which we have developed. We found that in the cell-free system, C2-ceramide is not able to induce apoptosis in nuclei whereas cytochrome c does, but it is able to induce HeLa cells to undergo apoptosis. Ceramide is also not able to induce apoptosis when added into the cell-free system together with purified mitochondria. Further investigation showed that C2-ceramide at certain concentrations greatly increases nuclear apoptosis caused by cytochrome c in the cell-free system. From these results we conclude that the induction of apoptosis by ceramide may require intact cells in which some unknown signal transduction pathways are involved.

    Notes: Abstract We quantified texture segregation by measuring psychophysically the percentage correct detection scores for each of a set of 10 texture-defined (TD) letters using the temporal two-alternative forced choice method, and at the same time quantified spatial discrimination of the TD form of measuring psychophysically the percentage correct letter recognition scores for the 10 letters. Ten levels of task difficulty were created by adding noise dots to the texture patterns. The resulting psychophysical data were used to test and compare models of the detection and recognition of texture-defined letters. Each model comprised a sequence of physiologically plausible stages in early visual processing. Each had the same first, second and third stages, namely linear orientation-tuned spatial filters followed by rectification and smoothing. Model 1 had only one non-linear stage. Model 2 had two non-linear stages. In model 2 the second non-linear stage was cross-orientation inhibition. This second non-linear stage enhanced the texture borders by, in effect, comparing textures at different locations in the texture pattern. In both models, the last stage modelled either letter detection or letter recognition. Letter recognition was modelled as follows. We passed a given letter stimulus through the first several stages of a model and, in 10 separate calculations, cross-correlated the output with a template of each of the 10 letters. From these 10 correlations we obtained a predicted percentage correct letter recognition score for the given letter stimulus. The predicted recognition scores closely agreed with the experimental data at all 10 levels of task difficulty for model 2, but not for model 1. We conclude that a borderenhancing algorithm is necessary to model letter recognition. The letter-detection algorithm modelled detection of part of a letter (a single letter stroke) in terms of the signal-to-noise ratio of a letter-segment detector. The predicted letter detection scores fitted the data closely for both models.

    Notes: We report here magnetic studies of Cu-based organometallic monomers and polymers. Magnetic susceptibility measurements at high temperature, on monomers having different side groups, show antiferromagnetic Curie–Weiss behavior consistent with a single spin-1/2 per Cu atom and an antiferromagnetic Curie–Weiss temperature θ≈1 K. The low-temperature magnetization remains linear to μBH/kBT ≥ 1, suggestive of 1D antiferromagnetic Heisenberg interactions. A sharp decrease in the effective spin per Cu atom is observed in the polymerized organometallic system, with the number of spins decreasing with the degree of polymerization.

    Notes: A quasi-stable threshold voltage (Vt) shift is imparted onto field-effect transistors (FETs) with organic semiconductors and polymer dielectrics. Adjustment of Vt from accumulation mode to zero or depletion mode is demonstrated for both p-channel and n-channel FETs, and is accomplished by applying a depletion voltage to the gate prior to device operation. Hydrophobic dielectrics and dopant-resistant semiconductors were advantageous. A pixel circuit that utilizes this nonvolatile memory element is proposed. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.
