    Notes: Traditionally, sewage-works design in Hungary has been based on rigid national standards with little consideration being given to the requirements of individual situations. This has resulted in plants that performed poorly and were expensive to construct and operate.The paper describes measures to improve the environment by upgrading Miskolc sewage-treatment works, and the conflict between the cost of those facilities, and the ability to pay against a background of changing economic conditions.

    Notes: Regeneration and changes in land use in London's Docklands have resulted in new water quality requirements. Areas previously occupied by docks now form part of redevelopment projects which have made a feature of the water.The paper describes a project to provide water that is aesthetically pleasing and of a quality suitable for water contact recreational activities.An extensive programme of water sampling and analysis was carried out to gain an understanding of the processes affecting water quality, including the monitoring of algal growth. The river is the main source of nutrients in the docks, which results in large concentrations of algal biomass and bacterial contamination. The principal strategy is to limit light via artificial mixing systems supplemented by limiting the inflow of nutrients from the river.The results from the water sampling programme have been used to build a 3D computer model with a supporting graphic information system to attain (a) qualitative evaluations of management and development options, and (b) short-term predictions of changes in water quality.

    Notes: Abstract: Activities of enzyme markers of subcellular organelles have been measured in brain tissue from subjects with Alzheimer-type dementia (ATD) and Huntington's disease (HD). Significant increases in the activity of the lysosomal enzyme β-glucuronidase were observed in both ATD temporal cortex and HD putamen. It is suggested that β-glucuronidase activity may be a useful biochemical indicator of cellular damage in the CNS. A significant reduction in neutral α-glucosidase activity was observed in ATD temporal cortex and HD putamen. This change may reflect an alteration in glycoconjugate processing and may relate to the susceptibility of neurones to the degenerative processes of ATD and HD.

    Notes: The collisional heating rate of a fully ionized plasma driven by a strong electromagnetic pump wave is re-examined both analytically and with two-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations. The high frequency conductivity model of Dawson and Oberman [J. Dawson and C. Oberman, Phys. Fluids 5, 517(1962)] is extended for the case in which the quiver velocity vo=eE/mωo is much larger than the thermal velocity vth and its equivalence to the results of Silin [V. P. Silin, Sov. Phys. JETP 20, 1510 (1965)] is shown. The Dawson and Oberman model is reduced to two-dimensions for comparison with the PIC simulations. Excellent agreement between the theory and the simulations for vo/vth≤1 is obtained. However, when vo/vth(very-much-greater-than)1 and the excursion amplitude xo=eE/mω2o is larger than the Debye length λD, the simulations show enhancements in the collision frequency from the theory. A possible mechanism for this enhancement is provided. © 1994 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The modulational instability and collapse of waves in the vicinity of the lower-hybrid resonance including both magnetosonic and lower-hybrid waves are investigated by analytical and numerical methods. The mechanism leading to the modulational instability is the nonlinear coupling of lower-hybrid waves with the much lower-frequency quasineutral density perturbations via the ponderomotive force. The result is a filamentation of the high-frequency field producing elongated, cigar-shaped nonlinear wave packets aligned along the magnetic field with the plasma expelled outside (cavities). The analytical self-similar solutions describing cavity collapse are obtained and compared with the results of numerical simulation for both two- and three-dimensional cavity geometries. It is shown that in three-dimensional solutions the transverse, with respect to the magnetic field, contraction remains prevailing. The possibility of ion acceleration as the result of the lower-hybrid collapse is discussed and detailed comparison is made with the observations of the phenomena in the auroral ionosphere.

    Notes: Particle dynamics and field behavior associated with a perpendicular collisionless supercritical and viscous shock are investigated by use of numerical simulation. A one-dimensional, relativistic, fully electromagnetic and nonperiodic particle simulation code (for both electrons and ions) is used where self-consistent space-charge effects and induced effects are totally included. The principal field patterns of the shock (trailing wave train, ramp, and foot region) are studied in detail and are shown to have scale lengths mainly dictated by ion dynamics; the behavior of the corresponding plasma currents associated with the different field components is also presented. Ions are shown to suffer successive "acceleration–trapping–detrapping'' at the shock front, and locally in the trailing wave train of the downstream region through combined effects of the electrostatic and magnetic fields. While detrapped, the reflected ions describe very large Larmor orbits and cause a ring distribution; a large rapid nonstochastic ion heating results from this ion gyration. This heating (resistivity-free) is the main source of dissipation and is responsible for large field damping. Competitive effects such as particle stochasticity, particle trapping, wave damping, wave overtaking, and dispersion effects are shown to interact with each other and to affect the overall dissipation mechanism. Comparison with previous works is also discussed. Various Mach number situations are considered, leading to the definition of a transitory regime between subcritical and supercritical regimes and of a corresponding critical threshold of the electrostatic field. In contrast with the supercritical regime, the subcritical regime is characterized by a low density of trapped-reflected ions, a broad ion distribution function with a weak tail, and a weak adiabatic bulk ion heating.

    Notes: The behavior of strong magnetosonic waves propagating perpendicular to a static field B0 is investigated within the frequency range ωci〈ω〈ωlh; ωci,ω, and ωlh are, respectively, the ion cyclotron, the pump wave, and the lower-hybrid frequencies. A one-dimensional, relativistic, fully electromagnetic, particle simulation code (for both electrons and ions) is used, where self-consistent effects are totally included. During the buildup phase, a longitudinal electric field develops and attains a nonlinear level which strongly distorts its shape so that many harmonics are produced. This is followed shortly by ion trapping, which simultaneously enhances the wave overtaking (the wave crests overtaking the wave troughs) and produced a strong wave damping. A very large ion acceleration accompanied by a strong heating (mainly nonstochastic) perpendicular to B0 results; the electrons exhibit only poor heating associated with their adiabatic compression. The dynamics of both particle species, the consequences of the wave–particle energy transfer and the particle viscosities, are studied in detail. Competitive and self-consistent effects such as space-charge effects, wave overtaking, ion trapping, and wave damping are investigated and compared with previous models; the mechanisms by which these various phenomena interact on each other are analyzed. Characteristics of nonstochastic and stochastic ion heating are also discussed. Our computations show that if sufficient intensity is reached, one is not constrained to use lower-hybrid waves or cyclotron harmonic waves to heat a plasma efficiently and that any frequency below ωlh can be used.

    Notes: In the sheath regions strong electric fields can develop that accelerate ions to sufficient energy to cause sputtering and increase the plasma impurities to an intolerable level. Simulations of these sheaths are performed with a one-and-two-half-dimensional (y,vx,vy,vz) electrostatic particle model with a homogeneous magnetic field tilted in relation to y; guiding-center electrons and full dynamic ions are used. The plasma is taken to be bounded by metallic walls in which a time-dependent potential difference V(t) is applied and the average energies and flux of ions hitting the walls are computed. The results show that the magnetic fields inhibits the sputtering caused by D atoms. Comparisons of the present model with previous work, which used a Vlasov model and fluid approach, are also made with good agreement in the appropriate regime.
