    Notes: We present heat capacity and magnetic measurements of antiferromagnetic (AFM) CoO/Ni0.5Co0.5O superlattices grown by reactive sputtering. X-ray data verify the structure and the high quality of the superlattice. Neutron-diffraction studies of similar superlattices have shown AFM ordering through several bilayers despite the short-range nature of the spin interaction in the constituent materials. We have recently developed a unique thin film microcalorimeter capable of measuring thin films from 1.5 K to well above room temperature, permitting specific heat measurements on these superlattices for the first time. Magnetic measurements were made by coupling the superlattices to a 30 nm Ni81Fe19 overlayer and measuring the temperature dependence of the exchange anisotropy field. We examine the effect of exchange coupling at the interfaces by varying the thickness of the bilayers and their constituents. When the layers of the CoO/Ni0.5Co0.5O superlattice are thin, we observe a single broad heat capacity peak at a temperature between the Néel temperatures of bulk CoO and Ni0.5Co0.5O. This peak is at a temperature that corresponds to the superlattice magnetic blocking temperature, the temperature at which the exchange field goes to zero. For thicker layers, we observe the disappearance of the superlattice peak, and the emergence of two broad peaks close to the individual Néel temperatures of CoO and Ni0.5Co0.5O. We compare the temperature dependence of the specific heat of the superlattices to various models.

    Notes: Lanthanum substitution in the Y-Ba-Cu-O system at elevated P(O2) results in superconducting compositions which throw interesting light on the effects of nonisovalent substitution in a Y-Ba-Cu-O system. Like Ca substitution, La substitution also shifts the phase formation boundary between 123, 247, and 124 phases to higher P(O2), and stabilizes a tetragonal 123 structure at moderately elevated P(O2). However, in contrast with Ca substitution, Tc decreases continuously and rapidly with increasing La content. This can be only partly explained by a decrease of the hole concentration.

    Notes: Abstract Cholangitis after biliary reconstruction for congenital biliary atresia is a troublesome postoperative complication. In order to clarify its mechanism and the changes in intestinal movement after biliary reconstruction by Roux-en-Y anastomosis, we performed electromyographic (EMG) studies of the motility of the reconstructed intestine in dogs. Monitoring the basic electrical rhythm (BER) and migrating myoelectric complexes (MMC), EMG analysis was carried out. As most of the Y-loop MMCs were propagated smoothly to the anal side, according to the continuity of the intestine, the intestinal contents were transported without stagnation. These intestinal movements appear to be useful as a biliary drainage route and to prevent ascending cholangitis. A comparison of short- and long-term intestinal motility after biliary reconstruction showed adaptation of the intestinal movement following the procedure. The outflow of bile appeared to accelerate intestinal motility because of prolongation of the MMC interval in the duodenum and oral jejunum without bile flow.
