    Notes: Abstract Soft-X-ray and extreme ultraviolet spectroheliographs carried by the OSO-7 (Orbiting Solar Observatory) have been used to record the development of XUV emission associated with a flare of importance 1b on August 2, 1972. Spatial resolution was 20″ and spectral resolution was adequate to select emission lines originating within well-defined ranges of electron temperature between 5 × 104 and 30 × 106K. The data show that heating only the pre-existing coronal material adjacent to the flare site cannot account for the soft X-ray emission measure observed during the event. The flare emission originating at T e ⩽ 2.3 × 106K exhibits an impulsive component coincident with an impulsive microwave event. This radiation appears to coincide spatially with Hα radiation emitted at that time and is centered on the neutral line separating magnetic fields of opposite polarity. One soft X-ray-emitting feature, estimated to have an initial electron temperature of 2–10 × 106K, forms during the impulsive phase immediately over the Hα flare. A second, arch-like feature observed at wavelengths near 1.9 Å and estimated to have T e≅30 × 106K is located approximately 35000 km above the Hα event. Both regions have lengths of about 27000 km but transverse dimensions small compared to the spatial resolution of the spectroheliograph, i.e., less than 14000 km. The region with highest electron temperature exhibits the greatest stability in position. This region cools to approximately 10 × 106K in 6 to 12 min which is compatible with cooling by conduction to the chromosphere. The best association with a dark surge is found in an emission line of Fe xiv.

    Notes: [Auszug] ALONG the north-west coast of Australia the tidal wave, flowing in from the Indian Ocean, produces at most places a large rise and fall. At Port Darwin the mean spring range is about 24 feet, but the range is sometimes as much as 30 feet. A tide gauge of Lord Kelvin's pattern was set up here by ...

    Notes: Abstract Studies of the vaporization onset associated with heat flow are used as a tool to probe the superfluid thermohydrodynamics during entropy transport. Onset-flux-density data of the heat flow suggest that the normal fluid viscous force dominates during entropy transport from a single source (strip) to bulk He II over a layer of thickness 10 −4 cm (upper bound) or less.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Alle Hauptnerven des Mund- und Rachennervensystems wurden kontrolliert reseziert. Erst wenn die rückwärtigen Rachennerven zerschnitten werden, nehmen die Insekten wesentlich mehr Nahrung zu sich. Solche Insekten versuchen längere Zeit zu fressen. Wenn sich während des Fressens der Vorderdarm füllt, wird keine Nahrung an den Mitteldarm weitergegeben und sein Vorderende ist der letzte Teil, der sich vollständig ausdehnt. Nach Durchtrennung der rückwärtigen Rachennerven sind alle Teile des Vorderdarms offen-sichtlich mehr gedehnt. Eine solche erhöhte Nahrungsaufnahme tritt aber nicht ein, wenn die Nahrung relativ ungünstig ist. Das Abbinden des Kropfes verursacht beim nachträglichen Fressen keine übermäßige Ausdehnung des Vorderteiles. Die Nahrungsaufnahme hat keinen Unterschied im Körpervolumen zur Folge und das Durchtrennen des ventralen Nervenstranges bleibt ohne Einfluß auf die nachträglich aufgenommenen Nahrungsmengen. Das vergrößerte Darmvolumen wird durch Kollaps des Luftsackes kompensiert.
    Notes: Abstract During the course of a meal by insects with an empty gut, food is held in the foregut and the midgut remains empty. The last part of the foregut to fill is the extreme anterior end of the crop, and stretch receptors in this region control the amount eaten. Cutting the posterior pharyngeal nerves isolates these receptors from the frontal garglion and results in hyperphagia pharyngeal nerves isolates these receptors from the frontal garglion and results in hyperphagia during one meal. On unfavourable food, when smaller amounts are eaten, distension of the foregut is not involved in regulating meal size. Feedback from receptors in the body wall is not important in regulating meal size; most of the increase in gut volume resulting from feeding is taken up by the collapse of the air sacs so that there is little or no change in the body volume.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Funktionen der Maxillartaster von Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R. & F.), Schistocerca gregaria (Forskål) und Chortippus parallelus (Zett.) wurden unter Anwendung verschiedener Verfahren untersucht. Die Tasterbewegungen wurden kinematographisch analysiert und als Schlagen und Tasten klassifiziert; das letztere tritt hauptsächlich kurz vor und nach, aber ebenso gut auch während der Nahrungsaufnahme auf. Die Sensillen an den Tasterenden berühren beim Tasten häufig das Substrat. Vorausgesetzt, daß die Insekten nicht gehungert hatten, wurde Bellis allein nach Betasten abgelehnt; nach längerem Hungern erfolgte jedoch die Ablehnung erst nach Beißen. Weitere Versuche, bei denen Extrakte der Kutikula von Poa oder Bellis verwendet wurden, zeigten, daß Annahme oder Ablehnung von der chemischen Natur des Substrats abhängen, welches von den Tastern berührt wird. Betasten eines geeigneten Substrats führte nicht unmittelbar zum Beißen, ruft aber eine Verhaltensweise hervor, die ihrerseits das Beißen fördert. Daraus wird geschlossen, daß die von den Tastern wahrgenommenen chemischen Reize für die Nahrungswahl der Acrididen wichtig sind, wenn die Insekten normal fressen. Nach Hunger ruft mechanische Reizung der Taster oder anderer Mundteile Beißen auch beim Fehlen geeigneter chemischer Reize hervor. Die häufigen kurzen Kontakte der Palpen mit dem Substrat während des Tastens erlauben offenbar den Sensillen, einen beständigen Strom von Informationen an das Zentralnervensystem zu liefern, ohne selbst angepaßt (ermüdet) zu werden.
    Notes: Abstract The functions of the maxillary palps of acridids have been investigated in experiments with Locusta migratoria migratorioides (R. & F.), Schistocerca gregaria (Forsk.) and Chorthippus parallelus (Zett.). The palp makes small irregular flicking movements and more extensive rapid vibrations described as palpation. Both activities involve the same basic movements of the palp segments. Palpation is essentially related to feeding and in normally feeding insects the palps play an important role in food selection, but as starvation is prolonged they become unimportant. Selection depends on appropriate chemical stimulation from the cuticle on the surface of the leaf. Palpation on this leads to head lowering and to biting if appropriate tactile stimuli are then received. The control of biting is discussed. The frequent but very brief, contacts of the sensilla on the tips of the palps with the substratum during palpation may enable them to relay information to the central nervous system more or less continuously without adapting.

    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Nahrungsmenge, die von einer Larve der Wanderheuschrecke, Locusta migratoria L., im fünften Entwicklungsstadium bei einer einzigen Mahlzeit verzehrt wird, wurde ermittelt, indem ihr Darm und Darminhalt sofort nach dem Fressen gewogen wurden. In der Mitte des Entwicklungsstadiums wurden größere Mengen verzehrt, Weibchen fraßen mehr als Männchen, jedoch sind die weiblichen Larven ja auch größer. Die Menge der aufgenommenen Nahrung vergrößerte sich mit der Dauer künstlichen Futterentzuges. Sie erreichte ihren Höhepunkt nach sechs Stunden, nach welcher Zeit der Vorderdarm absolut leer war. Die verzehrten Mengen waren je nach der Art der Nahrung unterschiedlich. Auch stellten die Insekten sich so ein, daß sie von einer bestimmten Nahrung mehr zu sich nahmen, wenn sie daran aufgezogen worden waren. Nach längeren Zeitspannen der Isolierung hatten sie die Tendenz, weniger zu fressen. Temperatur und Feuchtigkeit hatten keinen Einfluß auf die Mengen, die verzehrt wurden, außer bei 40°, bei welcher Temperatur sich das gesamte Verhalten zum Fressen ändert.
    Notes: Abstract Meal size in fifth-instar nymphs of Locusta migratoria L. has been investigated by weighing the gut and its contents immediately after feeding. Larger meals are taken in mid-instar, while females eat more in one meal than males under the same conditions. Bigger meals are also eaten after longer periods of food deprivation, but after deprivation for two hours or less, corresponding with the normal interfeed length, meals are smaller than would be expected from the potential maximum foregut volume. The maximum volume attained varies with the type of food available to the insects and is influenced by previous conditioning. Temperature and humidity do not affect meal size except at 40°, at which temperature the usual pattern of feeding is completely altered.

    Notes: Summary The basic structure of the terminal sensilla of Locusta migratoria resembles that of Schistocerca gregaria. There are commonly six or ten neurons whose dendrites extend almost to the opening of the peg. Proximally the dendrites are clothed by a neurilemma cell which also encloses a basal cavity through which their ciliary region passes. The tormogen cell encloses the receptor-lymph cavity and actively secretes material into it. The receptor-lymph cavity and the basal cavity are quite separate. The development of new pegs at a moult is described. After apolysis the scolopale extends across the subcuticular space and protects the dendrites, which remain in a functional condition until shortly before ecdysis. As the trichogen cell grows out to form a new peg the tip is surrounded by a mass of electron-dense material, probably derived from the receptorlymph cavity. The function of this material is unknown. Regeneration of the dendrites is considered. The possible mechanism by which the tip of the peg opens and closes is considered and the general structure of the organule is discussed in relation to functioning.

    Notes: The change in apparent molal volume φ of DNA on thermal denaturation in carbonate buffer at pH 11.0 has been determined by the dilatometric method. It was found that φ increases sigmoidally during the helix-coil transition. Several methods, including a colorimetric technique that closely simulates the conditions used in the dilatometric experiments, were employed to estimate the protons lost by the DNA during the transition. These measurements indicated that the extent of the proton loss depends on the counterion present, increasing in the order Li+ 〈 Na+ 〈 K+ 〈 Cs+. The major part of the volume changes observed during the denaturation is due to the volume changes expected to accompany the transfer of protons from the bases guanine and thym ne to carbonate ions. As has been previously reported for the denaturation of DNA at neutral pH, the volume change directly due to the change in shape of the polymer molecules is so small as to be experimentally undetectable.
