    Notes: Abstract  The wing-deficient mutant, flügellos (fl), of the silkworm, lacks four wings in the pupa and the adult. Previous studies have suggested that the fl wing discs lose responsiveness to ecdysteroid during metamorphosis. To test this hypothesis at the molecular level we compared the expression of 12 genes when the wing discs from the wild-type (WT) and fl larvae were cultured in the presence or absence of 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E). Most of the genes tested here, ecdysteroid-inducible (EcR-A, -B1,and E75) and noninducible genes (actin A3, β-tubulin, apterous (ap), USP, and BHR38) were normally expressed in the fl wing discs. However, the amounts of mRNAs of two ecdysteroid-inducible genes, BHR3 (early-late gene; Bombyx homologue to DHR3 and MHR3) and Urbain (wing-specific late gene), were reduced to about 50% and 20% of WT in the cultured fl wing discs, respectively. We analyzed developmental profiles of these mRNAs during metamorphosis. They also demonstrated decreased BHR3 and Urbain mRNA 2 days after the onset of wandering. This reduction in transcription of BHR3 in the fl mutant was observed only in the wing disc, not in the testis and fatbody. These results imply that the aberrant expression of the fl gene affects the downstream pathway of ecdysteroid signaling specifically in the wing discs and thus leads to a deficiency in wing formation.

    Notes: Abstract Background: Computed tomography during arterial portography (CTAP) under temporary balloon occlusion of the hepatic artery (BOHA-CTAP) was introduced to evaluate pseudolesions caused by portal venous impairments such as arterioportal shunt and tumor thrombus. Methods: BOHA-CTAP was performed in seven patients with hepatocellular carcinoma and correlated with clinical outcomes. For patients with wedge-shaped defects suggestive of pseudolesions, BOHA-CTAP was obtained by a 5-F balloon occlusion catheter into the proper hepatic artery through the second 5-F introducer inserted into the common femoral artery a few centimeters below the first 5-F sheath for CTAP. Results: Eight pseudolesions were determined clinically on follow-up CT, ultrasonography, or magnetic resonance imagings. On BOHA-CTAP, five of the eight pseudolesions were eliminated, and two were diminished in comparision with conventional CTAP. One wedge-shaped defect due to tumor thrombus in the portal vein did not show any change. Conclusion: BOHA-CTAP can reduce pseudolesions caused by portal venous impairments and enable the demarcation of the true tumors. RID="" ID="" 〈E5〉Correspondence to:〈/E5〉 J. Koizumi

    Notes: Since 1994 at the National Institute of Radiological Sciences HIMAC, the NIRS Penning ionized-gauge ion source (PIGIS) has so far been used for radiotherapy with carbon beams and for basic research with several ion species. The source can produce beams from H2 to Fe with a charge-to-mass ratio of between 1/7 and 1/2. It is a hot-cathode type with a filament, of which the lifetime is on the order of a week and the cathode on the order of 1 month, under a low-duty pulsed operation (≤0.5%) synchronized to the ring operation. This PIGIS can produce highly charged ions: for example, 1 e mA of Ar7+ or 500 eμ A of Si5+ ions (by sputtering) under the typical arc power of 5 kW in peak. This article describes the present status of the NIRS-PIGIS. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Substantial training effect in hysteresis loops was observed in ferromagnet (F)–antiferromagnet (AF) exchange coupled systems of the structure, Si(100)/iron–oxide(tAF)/F layer (5 nm)/Ta(10 nm), prepared by magnetron sputtering. The exchange bias field and the coercivity decrease with increasing number of loop cycles. The initially asymmetric hysteresis loop becomes more symmetric as the number of loop cycles increases. The effect is more prominent in the descending curve starting from the saturation in the positive (parallel to the pinned direction) direction than in the ascending curve of the hysteresis loop. The value of the ascending curve switching field |Hsw+| is rather unchanged while the switching field |Hsw−| in the descending curve decreases drastically with repeated hysteresis loop cycling as was observed in some CoO/Co and NiO/NiFe systems. Those phenomena can be interpreted by a modification of the extended model of Fulcomer and Charap's: the essential modification being the introduction of positive and negative exchange coupling between AF grains. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A three-step method is proposed for reconstructing the in-plane magnetization distribution from a magnetic force microscope (MFM) image. The magnetization distribution is initialized using some assumptions based on our knowledge about domain structures and MFM contrast mechanisms. Then the high-energy moment configurations, which are initialized based on linear variation assumption, are relaxed by performing a micromagnetic calculation using experimentally measured magnetic parameters. A section of a 360° wall in a NiFe/NiO bilayer has been selected to illustrate the reconstruction procedures. It is shown that the method is effective in revealing the wall structure related to the MFM contrast. This method avoids problems caused by noise and nonunique solutions of the micromagnetic equations. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Both normal and inverse magnetoresistance (MR) response curves were observed for synthetic spin valves with the structure of Si(100)/Ru/Co(t1)/Ru(0.7 nm)/Co(t2)/Cu(3 nm)/Co(t3)/Ru. Under the assumption of a coherent rotation of the magnetization in the three Co layers, the hysteresis loops, magnetization response, and MR response curves were calculated as a function of the parameters of the system. The parameters include antiferromagnetic coupling of Co(t1) and Co(t2) through Ru layer, a weak ferromagnetic coupling of Co(t2) and Co(t3) through Cu spacer, giant magnetoresistance of the Co/Cu/Co and Co/Ru/Co systems, and AMR contribution of each Co layer. The uniaxial anisotropy of each Co layer and a distribution of the coupling strength of Co(t1)/Ru/Co(t2) were also included. To fit the experimental data well, it was necessary to include a biquadratic coupling in the Co(t1)/Ru/Co(t2) trilayer. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The 360° domain wall loops were studied using a magnetic force microscope (MFM) in a glass/Ta(10 nm)/NiFe(12 nm)/NiO(6 nm)/Ta(5 nm) multilayered film fabricated by magnetron sputtering. The film had an enhanced coercivity but no M–H loop shift due to the thin NiO layer. It was found that the local magnetic field exerted by a MFM tip can strongly affect the 360° domain wall, and this interaction was used to probe the structure and dynamics of the wall. The repeated scanning action of the tip causes the transformation from a 360° wall loop into a 180° wall loop. The magnetization distributions for these domain walls were derived from the MFM images. The mechanism of the irreversible change of wall structures caused by the tip–sample interaction was investigated based on micromagnetic analysis. The study of the transformation process provided a better understanding of the structures of the 360° walls. This work suggests that the tip–sample interaction could be a useful tool for studying the domain wall structures. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Exchange coupling between antiferromagnetic regions of tetragonal NiMn through a separation at a boundary was evaluated by first principles calculation to study the coupling between antiferromagnetic grains. It was assumed that the crystallographic orientation was assumed not to change across the boundary. The layer version of the Korringa–Kohn–Rostoker method was employed to calculate the total energy of the coupled system. The exchange coupling strength was estimated as the total energy difference between the two spin configurations of the two body system, parallel and antiparallel to each other. For the grains without any atomic lattice shift parallel to the plane (100) across the boundary, it was found that the coupling strength decreases more rapidly than that for ferromagnetic hexagonal cobalt with the increase of the separation and that it changes its sign at a separation length of a little greater than a half of the lattice constant. For the case with a boundary across which the lattice shifts by an atomic distance diagonally, the exchange coupling is reduced to about 1/3 of the original value and decreases rather slowly with the increase of the separation compared to the previous case. Those results are consistent with our previous report which predicted the existence of a weak exchange coupling between the grains in an antiferromagnetic polycrystalline layer based on the analysis of a characteristic feature often observed in torque curves for ferro/antiferromagnetic coupled layer systems. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
