    Notes: Ion cyclotron range of frequency (ICRF) heating experiments on the Large Helical Device (LHD) [O. Motojima et al. Fus. Eng. Des. 20, 3 (1993)] achieved significant advances during the third experimental campaign carried out in 1999. They showed significant results in two heating modes; these are modes of the ICH-sustained plasma with large plasma stored energy and the neutral beam injection (NBI) plasma under additional heating. A long-pulse operation of more than 1 minute was achieved at a level of 1 MW. The characteristics of the ICRF heated plasma are the same as those of the NBI heated plasma. The energy confinement time is longer than that of International Stellarator Scaling 95. Three keys to successful ICRF heating are as follows: (1) an increase in the magnetic field strength, (2) the employment of an inward shift of the magnetic axis, (3) the installation of actively cooled graphite plates along the divertor legs. Highly energetic protons accelerated by the ICRF electric field were experimentally observed in the energy range from 30 to 250 keV and the tail temperature depended on the energy balance between the wave heating and the electron drag. The transfer efficiency from the high energy ions to the bulk plasma was deduced from the increase in the energy confinement time due to the high energy ions in the lower density discharge, which agrees fairly well with the result obtained by the Monte Carlo simulation. The transfer efficiency is expected to be 95% at an electron density of more than ne=5.0×1019 m−3 even in the high power heating of 10 MW. The accumulation of impurities, e.g., FeXVI and OV was not observed in high rf power and long pulse operation. The well-defined divertor intrinsic to LHD is believed to be useful in reducing the impurity influx. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The bifurcation nature of the electrostatic structure is studied in the toroidal helical plasma of the Compact Helical System (CHS) [K. Matsuoka et al., Proceedings of the 12th International Conference on Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research, Nice, 1988 (International Atomic Energy Agency, Vienna, 1989), Vol. 2, p. 411]. Observation of bifurcation-related phenomena is introduced, such as characteristic patterns of discrete potential profiles, and various patterns of self-sustained oscillations termed electric pulsation. Some patterns of the electrostatic structure are found to be quite important for fusion application owing to their association with transport barrier formation. It is confirmed, as is shown in several tokamak experiments, that the thermal transport barrier is linked with electrostatic structure through the radial electric field shear that can reduce the fluctuation resulting in anomalous transport. This article describes in detail spatio-temporal evolution during self-sustained oscillation, together with correlation between the radial electric field and other plasma parameters. An experimental survey to find dependence of the temporal and spatial patterns on plasma parameters is performed in order to understand systematically the bifurcation property of the toroidal helical plasma. The experimental results are compared with the neoclassical bifurcation property that is believed to explain the observed bifurcation property of the CHS plasmas. The present results show that the electrostatic property plays an essential role in the structural formation of toroidal helical plasmas, and demonstrate that toroidal plasma is an open system with a strong nonlinearity to provide a new attractive problem to be studied. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The statistical theory of strong turbulence in inhomogeneous plasmas is developed for the cases where fluctuations with different scale lengths coexist. Statistical nonlinear interactions between semimicro and micro modes are first kept in the analysis as the drag, noise and drive. The nonlinear dynamics determines both the fluctuation levels and the cross field turbulent transport for the fixed global parameters. A quenching or suppressing effect is induced by their nonlinear interplay, even if both modes are unstable when analyzed independently. Influence of the inhomogeneous global radial electric field is discussed. A new insight is given for the physics of the internal transport barrier. The thermal fluctuation of the scale length of λD is assumed to be statistically independent. The hierarchical structure is constructed according to the scale lengths. Transitions in turbulence are found and phase diagrams with cusp type catastrophe are obtained. Dynamics is followed. Statistical properties of the subcritical excitation are discussed. The probability density function (PDF) and transition probability are obtained. Power laws are obtained in the PDF as well as in the transition probability. Generalization for the case where turbulence is composed of three classes of modes is also developed. A new catastrophe of turbulent states is obtained. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: It has been suggested that CN (calcineurin, protein phosphatase-2B) regulates signal transduction, particularly in various secretory cells. In this study, we examined whether CN plays a role in stimulus-secretion coupling of gastric parietal cells.〈section xml:id="abs1-2"〉〈title type="main"〉Materials and methods:Localization of CN in gastric epithelial cells was examined immunohistochemically. The role of CN in the acid secretion pathway of gastric parietal cells was assessed by evaluating the effect of FK506, a specific inhibitor of CN, on gastric acid secretion in pylorus-ligated rats. In addition, the effect of FK506 on secretagogue (carbachol, tetragastrin and histamine)-stimulated acid secretion was investigated in lumen-perfused rats.〈section xml:id="abs1-3"〉〈title type="main"〉Results:CN was specifically expressed in gastric parietal cells and chief cells of the gastric mucosal epithelium immunohistochemically. FK506 dose-dependently inhibited gastric acid secretion in pylorus-ligated rats. In lumen-perfused rats, FK506 completely inhibited acid secretion prestimulated by carbachol and tetragastrin, agonists known to increase cytosolic Ca2+, but did not affect acid secretion prestimulated by histamine.〈section xml:id="abs1-4"〉〈title type="main"〉Conclusions:Our findings demonstrate that FK506 has a potent antisecretory effect in parietal cells through inhibition of only Ca2+-mediated acid secretion pathways. As FK506 is known to specifically inhibit CN, which plays an important role in signal transduction in various secretory cells, protein dephosphorylation signalling might also be crucial for gastrin and M3 muscarine receptor-mediated stimulation of proton pump.

    Notes: The flow of excitation energy from the antennae to photosynthetic reaction centre complexes at 77 K was studied in leaves of two evergreen species, namely, snow gum (Eucalyptus pauciflora Sieb. ex Spreng.) and a hemiparasitic mistletoe (Amyema miquelii, Lehm. ex Miq.). The leaves that were naturally acclimated to winter conditions of freezing temperatures and high irradiance displayed the recently discovered cold-hard-band or CHB feature of the chlorophyll a fluorescence spectra (Gilmore & Ball, Proc. Nat. Acad. Sci. USA 97:11098–11101, 2000). A streak-camera-spectrograph was used and the double convolution integral method for global analysis was applied to simultaneously acquire and simulate, respectively, the time- and wavelength-dependence of all major chlorophyll a components (Gilmore et al. Phil. Trans. Roy. Soc. B-London 355:1371–1384, 2000). The CHB coincided with changed amplitudes and decreased excited state lifetimes for the main F685 nm and F695 nm emission bands from the photosystem II (PSII) core-inner-antenna. The CHB dissipates energy as heat separate from PSII while also reducing the PSII quantum yield by competing for both photon absorption and antenna excitation. The CHB did not correlate with changes in the decay kinetics of the PSI antenna F740 nm band. The spectral-kinetic features of the altered energy flow were similar in the unrelated evergreen species. These results are consistent with a functional association between the CHB, PSII energy dissipation and protective storage of chlorophyll in overwintering evergreens.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Verteilung der Fettsäuren im subcutanen Fett des Menschen wurde gaschromatographisch bestimmt. Die Fettproben wurden in einer Klinik im Norden Japans bei Operationen entnommen. Der prozentuale Anteil an gesättigten Fettsäuren war höher im Fett der Brust und Bauchwand und der an einfach ungesättigten Fettsäuren im Fett des Vorderarms und Beines. Die Anreicherung ungesättigter Fettsäuren in den Extremitäten war im Winter ausgeprägter als im Sommer. In der Zusammensetzung der Fett des Rumpfes fehlte eine jahreszeitenabhängige Variation.
    Abstract: Resume Par analyse chromatographique des gaz, on a déterminé la répartition des acides gras dans les tissus adipeux sous-cutanés de l'homme. Les échantillons de graisse ont été prélevés lors d'opérations dans une clinique du nord du Japon. La proportion d'acides gras saturés était plus élevée dans la graisse de la poitrine et du ventre, alors que les acides gras mono-nonsatures l'emportaient dans l'avant-bras et dans les jambes. L'accumulation d'acides gras non saturés dans les extrémités était plus accentuée en hiver qu'en été. On n'a par contre pas pu établir de relation saisonnière dans la composition de la graisse du tronc.
    Notes: Abstract The fatty acid composition of human subcutaneous fat obtained at a hospital in the north of Japan, was determined by means of gas chromatography. In the fat of chest and abdominal walls percentages of saturated fatty acids were higher and those of mono-unsaturated ones were less in comparison with respective values in the fat of forearm and leg. The unsaturation of the fat of extremities was more pronounced in the winter than in the summer, while no seasonal variations were observed in the fatty acid composition of the fat of trunk.
