    Notes: We have used reactive metal interlayers to suppress anion outdiffusion at Au-CdTe junctions and thereby to alter the formation of deep interfacial states. Using soft x-ray photoemission and luminescence spectroscopies, we report a dramatically reduced p-type band bending and demonstrate that deep levels observed directly at the interface are responsible for the chemically induced electrical behavior.

    Notes: We have used soft x-ray photoemission and optical emission spectroscopies to observe a broad range of Fermi level stabilization energies at metal interfaces with GaAs(100) surfaces grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The observed metal- and As-related interface cathodoluminescence plus orders-of-magnitude differences in bulk-defect-related photoluminescence between melt- versus MBE-grown GaAs suggest a role of bulk crystal growth and processing in controlling Schottky barrier formation.

    Notes: The response characteristics of palladium-gate metal-insulator-silicon field-effect transistor (MISFET) structures to hydrogen are shown to be logarithmically related to the partial pressure of the gas. It is proposed that these palladium-gate MIS structures should be considered as electrochemical devices where the metal/insulator structure behaves as a gas electrode. The results presented were obtained for hydrogen in air and therefore relate directly to the use of these devices as sensors for use in the ambient environment.

    Notes: The NOVA laser has completed its first year of operation. During this period, emphasis has been placed on activation of the facility and of the numerous target and beam diagnostics. Two separate target chambers are in use. NOVA operation is separated into two broad functions: laser operations and experiments. The operations group provides the laser system control, operation, and data acquisition and the experiments group provides experiment definition, diagnostic instrumentation, and overall data processing. On the operations side, VAX 11/780 computers are used to set up diagnostic operating parameters and collect data recorded by the CAMAC and CCD modules. These data are delivered in files by electronic link to the Laser Experiments and Analysis Facility (LEAF) VAX 11/785 of the experiments group for processing. Film data are digitized at LEAF and the film data files are also processed on the LEAF VAX. The LEAF provides collection, processing, analysis, and archiving of the experimental data. The many applications software packages written for LEAF provide the experimental physicists and NOVA operations staff with programs and data bases for interpretation of experimental results. This software makes fundamental use of the ORACLE relational data base management system to both access the required data and archive the obtained results. Post-shot data processing produces sets of scalar values, x, y profiles and x, y, z contour data. The scalar data are stored in the ORACLE DB; the more extensive results are stored in binary files on disk. All data forms are accessed by a comprehensive software system, the electronic SHOTBOOK, developed around the ORACLE DBMS. This software also provides the means to archive relevant data about each experimental activity and allows the physicists to annotate displayed experimental results with technical comment.

    Notes: The conformal property of the second Hamiltonian structure of constrained KP hierarchy derived by Oevel and Strampp is examined. It is found that it naturally gives a family of nonlocal extended conformal algebras. Two examples of such algebras are given and it is found that they are similar to Bilal's V algebra. By taking a gauge transformation one can map the constrained KP hierarchy to Kupershmidt's nonstandard Lax hierarchy. The second Hamiltonian structure in this representation is considered. It is shown that after mapping the Lax operator to a pure differential operator the second structure becomes the sum of the second and the third Gelfand–Dickey brackets defined by this differential operator. The corresponding conformally covariant form of this differential operator is also given. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Summary A survey of remedial teaching based on a particular method and carried out in an NHS clinic over 2 years has been presented. The findings suggest a differential pattern of improvement both for reading and spelling as well as for type of learning difficulty, whether ‘backward’ or ‘specifically retarded’. A plea for early recognition of specific learning difficulties and the provision of appropriate remedial teaching is made as the present findings suggest that a structured method of teaching can lead to improvement in both reading and spelling.

    Notes: A record of normal-reversed-polarity transition has been obtained from a 4 m thickness of loess exposed at a section near Lanzhou, China. Magnetostratigraphic studies suggest it may represent a reversal bounding the onset of a reversed-polarity zone within the Jaramillo Normal Subchron. The natural remanent magnetization consists of two components: a low-coercivity (≤20mT), low-unblocking-temperature (≤300°C) component of viscous origin and a high-coercivity (〉20mT), high-unblocking-temperature (250–700 °C) component carrying the characteristic remanence. Mineral magnetic analyses confirmed the presence of magnetite, its low-temperature oxidation products and haematite, each contributing to the remanence properties. Grain size and concentration showed limited variations and there was little evidence for the presence of the ultrafine magnetic phase commonly associated with palaeosol formation. Pedogenic processes appeared negligible and their effects unimportant, with detrital processes dominating the mineralogy and most probably the acquisition of the characteristic remanence. The reversal record was characterized by the decay and recovery of the geocentric axial dipole term with large directional swings occurring during periods of reduced relative palaeofield intensity. The virtual geomagnetic poles traced a complex path exhibiting no particular geographical confinement. Relative palaeofield intensity determinations were insensitive to the choice of normalization parameter and showed a distinctive asymmetry. Striking similarities were observed with the Matuyama-Jaramillo reversal record, obtained from the same section (Rolph 1993), and the Steens Mountain reversal record (Prévot el al. 1985), lending further support for the existence of unusually high post-transitional field intensities

    Notes: Accurate determination of the strength of the ancient geomagnetic field is limited by mineralogical alteration that may occur when samples are heated to produce a thermoremanent magnetization (Thellier & Thellier 1959; Shaw 1974). By using direct microwave excitation of the magnetic grains we have been able to form a thermoremanent magnetization without significantly heating the bulk sample, thus avoiding thermal alteration (Walton et al. 1993). Incorporation of this new microwave heating technique with the conventional Thellier palaeointensity method has dramatically reduced the scatter of archaeointensity results from Peruvian ceramics and clearly defined how the field strength has varied in Peru over the past 2000 years. The new microwave technique will therefore enhance the feasibility of archaeointensity dating and provide accurate field strength data for geomagnetic modelling.

    Notes: Fifty Thellier palaeointensity determinations were made from the Great Whin Sill (GWS) of northern England and the Midland Valley Sill (MVS) of central Scotland, which form the major part of a late Carboniferous quartz-dolerite complex. Palaeodirectional analysis confirms that the reversed polarity characteristic remanence carried by samples from both sills is consistent with the Permo-Carboniferous reversed superchron. Palaeomagnetic results suggest that the two sills may not be exactly contemporaneous. The MVS was intruded rapidly some time during the emplacement of the GWS, which was itself emplaced over a considerable time period. The MVS may well represent the northernmost expression of the instrusive activity. A mean palaeointensity of 22.9 ± 2.6 μT was calculated for the Great Whin Sill, with a corresponding VDM value of 5.9 ± 1022 A m2. The palaeointensity value calculated from the Midland Valley Sill was much lower, 13.0 ± 0.5 μT, with a corresponding VDM value of 3.3 ± 1022 A m2. Detailed rock magnetic analyses and stepwise thermal demagnetization studies reveal that the remanence carrier in both sills is magnetite of mixed domain state. Multidomain grains are less important in the Midland Valley Sill and thus greater confidence is attached to palaeointensity results from this sill. VDM values from this and other studies of the Permo-Carboniferous reversed superchron (P-CRS) indicate that the dipole strength showed similar variations to that witnessed for the past 5 Ma. There is no conclusive support in favour of either the weak or strong field models that have been suggested for superchrons. More palaeointensity results are needed from the termination of the P-CRS and the late Permian/early Triassic in order to understand how the dipole field evolved during the P-CRS and its relationship to the so-called Mesozoic dipole low.

    Notes: 1. The present study aimed to determine the feasibility of conducting a 5 year cardiovascular outcome trial of the treatment of 6000 elderly hypertensive patients in Australian general practices.2. General practitioners (GPs) were invited to participate by mail and personal follow-up. Patient records were reviewed to identify subjects for a blood pressure (BP) screening programme. Blood pressure was measured on three occasions and eligible subjects were included if the average BP was 〈inlineGraphic alt="geqslant R: gt-or-equal, slanted" extraInfo="nonStandardEntity" href="urn:x-wiley:03051870:CEP370:ges" location="ges.gif"/〉 160 mmHg systolic or 〈inlineGraphic alt="geqslant R: gt-or-equal, slanted" extraInfo="nonStandardEntity" href="urn:x-wiley:03051870:CEP370:ges" location="ges.gif"/〉 90 mmHg diastolic if systolic BP was 〈inlineGraphic alt="geqslant R: gt-or-equal, slanted" extraInfo="nonStandardEntity" href="urn:x-wiley:03051870:CEP370:ges" location="ges.gif"/〉 140 mmHg.3. Seven hundred and forty-one GPs were approached and 89 were enrolled in the study (12% of mail invites and 75% of those receiving a personal contact). In 16 practices where screening was completed, 82 000 records were reviewed to identify 4% patients eligible for screening. Twenty-two per cent of eligible subjects attended screening. Of 1938 subjects screened, 180 (9%) had BP 5=160/90 mmHg. Forty-seven percent of subjects (n = 916) were receiving antihypertensive therapy and 184 (20%) were withdrawn from therapy. One hundred and sixteen (63%) of these subjects had BP return to study entry levels within 6 weeks. Fifty-seven newly diagnosed and 81 previously treated subjects were randomized (7% of the screened population).4. Based on the high participation rate of GPs, the response rate of patients to attend a BP screening programme and the 7% randomization to screening ratio for entry into the study, the ANBP2 pilot study has demonstrated that it is feasible to recruit subjects from Australian general practices to a cardiovascular outcome trial.
