    Notes: [Auszug] The Crab pulsar was discovered by the occasional exceptionally bright radio pulses it emits, subsequently dubbed ‘giant’ pulses. Only two other pulsars are known to emit giant pulses. There is no satisfactory explanation for the occurrence of giant pulses, nor is there a complete ...

    Notes: It has been observed that the reflectivity of the (110) planes of a quartz lamina can be increased by submitting it to a static or alternating electric field. Measurements have been performed on 2.5 and 6 mm thick plates using a curved-crystal spectrometer with DuMond geometry. Photon energies were in the range 50 to 300 keV. Under the proper conditions, the increase in reflectivity is accompanied by negligible loss in resolution. The effects are explained by the occurrence of a quasi-mosaicity.

    Notes: Abstract The results of the recording of respiratory symptoms and the measurement of lung function in 136 male postal workers employed as mail carriers were studied. In addition, the prevalence of chronic respiratory symptoms in 87 male nonexposed control workers was also examined. There was a significantly higher prevalence of chronic bronchitis (25.0%) and sinusitis (38.9%) in mail carriers than in control workers (13.8%; P 〈 0.05 and 2.3%; P 〈 0.01). A logistic regression analysis performed on the results of the study of chronic respiratory symptoms of mail carriers indicated a significant (P 〈 0.001) effect of smoking in this cohort, with the exception of occupational asthma. Mail carriers who smoked had a significantly higher prevalence of chronic cough (45.3%), chronic phlegm (39.1%), chronic bronchitis (39.1%) and sinusitis (53.1%) than mail carriers who were nonsmokers (18.1%; 12.5%; 12.5% and 26.4% respectively.) (P 〈 0.01). A high prevalence of acute symptoms developing during the work-shift was recorded, in both smokers and nonsmokers, being highest for upper airway symptoms, headache (50.0%), nasal catarrh (42.6%), and eye irritation (57.4%). The results of tests for average measured ventilatory capacity (as a percentage of predicted capacity) were significantly lower than expected, particularly for maximum flow rates at the last 25% of the vital capacity (FEF25), in both smokers (68.5%) and in nonsmokers (74.2%). A multivariate analysis of lung function parameters indicated a significant effect of employment conditions. The only major identifiable occupational exposure of mail carriers was to ambient air pollution for an average of 6 h per day as well as to adverse meteorological conditions. The measured ambient concentrations of major outdoor pollutants, primarily total suspended particulates, sulfur dioxide (SO2) and black smoke exceeded considerably the recommended Croatian maximum air quality standards over the past 10 years. Our study of mail carriers demonstrated that these workers were subject to respiratory symptoms associated with their smoking habits. Lung function findings suggested that occupational exposures, possibly to atmospheric pollution in combination with adverse meteorological conditions, may have led to lung function impairment in these workers.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Zum Vergleich der Leistungsfähigkeit verschiedener Wärmeaustauscher liegt aus der Literatur eine Reihe von Bewertungskriterien vor. Sie beruhen im wesentlichen auf dem Verhältnis von erzielter Wärmeaustauschleistung zu der dafür erforderlichen hydraulischen Förderleistung. Die Anwendung dieser Kriterien wird beeinträchtigt durch nicht oder unklar formulierte Randbedingungen, die der Bewertung zugrunde liegen. Dies hat zu widersprüchlichen oder quantitativ zweifelhaften Ergebnissen geführt. Hier werden die Randbedingungen verschiedener Bewertungsverfahren gegenübergestellt, wobei die beiden Fragestellungen nach Flächenbedarf bei gleicher Wärme- und Förderleistung sowie Flächenbedarf und Förderleistung bei gleicher Wärmeleistung und Anströmfläche als die wichtigsten angesehen werden. Die erste Frage ist von Glaser bereits beantwortet worden, wird hier jedoch verallgemeinert dargestellt, die zweite Fragestellung ist neu; sie wird mit Hilfe geeigneter Kenngrößen und für einige bekannte Austauschsysteme behandelt.
    Notes: Abstract A number of criteria have been developed which evaluate heat exchangers on the basis of exchange rate and pumping power. Appreciation of these criteria suffers from a poor discussion of the conditions for which the evaluation holds. Consequently there have been contradictory results when different procedures were applied. A thorough discussion of the various boundary conditions reveals that two most important questions for crossflow air-cooled heat exchangers are (i) exchange area requirement at constant heat transfer rate and pumping power and (ii) exchange area and pumping power requirement at constant heat transfer rate and frontal area. The first question can be answered by generalizing the evaluation procedure of Glaser, the second problem is dealt with on the basis of redefined heat transfer and pressure drop characteristics.

    Notes: Abstract Aspects of the population biology of two harpacticoid copepod species [Zausodes arenicolus Wilson and Paradactylopodia brevicornis (Claus)] living in Tampa Bay, Florida, USA, were studied on time scales of hours to days during November 1983. Fluctuations in population agestructure, adult sex-ratio, and proportion of ovigerous females were determined for these two species in a control plot and in an experimental plot defaunated by raking. For both species, immigrants into the defaunated plot differed significantly from conspecifics in the control plot in all characteristics examined. The disturbed plot contained a larger proportion of young juveniles of both species compared to the unmanipulated site after 4 h but not after 8 h. In Z. arenicolus, adult males returned to the experimental plot more quickly than adult females. For both species, rapid and significant changes in population age-structure, adult sex-ratio, and the proportion of adult females with eggs occurred within the control plot. It is suggested that this variation was too large and occurred too rapidly to be accounted for solely by in situ processes in the absence of large-scale immigration and/or emigration of individuals. Potential implications of these results for population studies of harpacticoid copepods and other benthic invertebrates are discussed.

    Notes: Abstract Since October 1997, a new Prompt Gamma-ray Activation (PGA) Facility at the neutron spallation source SINQ of the Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI) in Villigen in Switzerland has been operational. The detection system includes a Compton-suppression and a pair spectrometer. Of particular interest is the availability of a neutron focusing lens. During the beam periods 1997 and 1998, measurements were performed to characterize the PGA facility (gamma-ray background, profile and flux of the neutron beam, efficiencies of the two spectrometers, analytical sensitivities and detection limits for several elements, elemental analysis of standards). Scanning of samples and nuclear spectroscopy of isotopes having small capture cross section were also performed using the neutron focusing lens.
