    Notes: Summary The most anterior part of area 7 of awake, behaving macaque monkeys was investigated using single cell recording technique. Eighty-five cells from three hemispheres of two monkeys were isolated and studied. These cells showed more complex functional properties than the cells in the primary and secondary cortical fields. Of the cells 61% responded to somatosensory (26%) or visual (2%) or both somatosensory and visual (33%) stimulation; 39% of the cells were active only during the monkey's own movements. Most of the cells studied were active while the monkey was bringing an object to the mouth with its hand, when reaching for an object with lips, or while chewing. The neurons responded selectively to, e.g., palpation of the flexors of the arm, a visual stimulus approaching the face, passive movement of the monkey's hand towards the mouth, or they were active only when the monkey was reaching for an object with its lips or was mouthing it. The cellular activity in the anterolateral part of area 7 was prominently related to the stimulation or motor activity of the face (especially the mouth). In this respect, it differed from the more posterior part of area 7 adjacent to it. The results thus indicate that there is a separate and rather extensive mouth (or face) area in the parietal association cortex of the monkey.

    Notes: Summary The lateral part of area 7, area 7b, of alert, behaving macaque monkeys was investigated using transdural microelectrode recording technique. Two hundred twenty-eight cells from five hemispheres of four monkeys were isolated and studied. The functional properties of 2% of the cells isolated remained unidentified. Functions of the identified cells were prominently related to the spatial control of arm movements. Of the cells 70% responded to somatosensory (40%) or visual (16%) or both somatosensory and visual (14%) stimulation. The receptive fields of these passively drivable cells were large, covering, e.g., the arm or leg or chest or even the skin of the whole body. Most of the visually drivable cells responded to stimuli in both halves of the visual field. Of the cells responding to sensory stimulation 80% were activated by stimuli moving in a certain direction. Of the directionally selective cells 25% received information through more than one sensory channel. The complex stimulus-response relationships of these “convergence” cells revealed the existence of an integrative system which analyzes the direction of a stimulus moving in one sensory system using an other sensory system as a reference. Of all the cells isolated 28% discharged only during active movements of the arms (25%) or eyes (3%). Firing of these neurons was related to contraction of a functionally uniform group of muscles and not individual muscles. Some previous investigations of the parietal association cortex, conducted mainly in area 7a, have shown that most cells are active only when the monkey himself moves his eyes or arms. In our study on area 7b most cells responded to passive stimulation. The discrepancy between the results indicates functional differentiation within area 7.

    Notes: Abstract Neutron-deficient isotopes of cadmium were produced in thep(600 MeV)+natSn spallation reaction. The ISOLDE facility provided mass-separated beams of these isotopes. The production yield was 103 to 104 atoms/s for100Cd and roughly two orders of magnitude less for98Cd. The properties of the100Cd→100Ag decay were studied in detail by X-ray,γ-ray and conversion electron spectroscopy. Forty nineγ-transitions were assigned to this decay, and all but five of them were placed in the decay scheme. The half-life was determined to be 49.1±0.5 s. TheQ EC value of 3890±70 keV was deduced from a comparison of experimental and theoreticalβ +/(EC+β + probability ratios. Seven 0+→1+ Gamow-Teller transitions with log ft values between 3.5 and 4.9 were identified. The total (summed) strength is about five times smaller than predicted by the shell model for the transformation of ag 9/2 proton into ag 7/2 neutron. The quenching of the Gamow-Teller strength and other questions of nuclear structure are discussed for the100Cd decay. The properties of98Cd are inferred by extrapolation of104,102,100Cd data, and some preliminary experimental results on98Cd decay are presented.

    Notes: Abstract Using the40Ca(4.2 MeV/u) +60Ni reaction and on-line mass separation, the decay properties of 46 96 Pd50 were reinvestigated. From a comparison of experimental and theoreticalβ +/(EC +β +) probability ratios, theQ EC value was deduced to be 3,450 ± 150 keV. The strength was determined for four 0+→1+ Gamow-Teller beta transitions and found to be quenched as compared to predictions of the single-particle shell model. For96Pd and94Ru the sources of this quenching are discussed.
