    Description / Table of Contents: Riassunto In questo lavoro si è condotta una completa analisi, dal punto di vista delle polarizzazioni, dello spettro Raman del GaS, per energie di eccitazione al di sotto del «gap» indiretto. Al fine di identificare le combinazioni di secondo ordine e i modi proibiti indotti da difetti, sono state eseguite anche misure di trasmittanza e riflettanza nell'infrarosso. L'impiego di tutte le possibili regole di selezione, applicate sia agli spettri Raman sia a quelli IR, ha permesso sempre di individuare i punti di simmetria dei modi coinvolti nello spettro Raman e, quando possibile, di assegnare le principali strutture non di Γ a modi dei puntiM oK. Si è cosí pervenuti a numerose nuove attribuzioni, contestando anche alcune precedenti assegnazioni, basate solo su studi separati degli spettri Raman o IR.
    Abstract: Резюме Предлагается поляризационный анализ спектра комбинацонного рассеяния в GaS для энергий возбуждения ниже непрямой запрещеннои зоны. Чтобы определить комбинации втрого порядка и дефект, индуцированный запрешеенным модами, которые появляются в спектрах, помимо шести хорошо известных Γ-фононов, вяшолняются также измерения пропускания и отражения инфракрасного излучения дляE⊥c иE∼c. Все имеюэиеся правила отбора применяются к данным по комбинационному рассеянию и к инфракрасым данным, что позволяет идентифицировать точки высокой симметрии для фононов, фигурирующие в рассеянии и, по возможности, описать главные не-Γ-структуры спектров. Этот анализ позволяет получить некоторые новые признаки, основанные на раздельном исследовании спектров комбинационного рассеяния и инфракрасных спектров.
    Notes: Summary A complete polarization analysis of the GaS Raman spectrum, for excitation energies below the indirect energy gap, is reported. In order to assign second-order combinations and defect-induced forbidden modes, that appear in the spectra besides the six well-known Γ-phonons, also IR transmittance and reflectance measurements, for bothE⊥c andE‖c, have been performed. All the available selection rules are applied to both Raman and IR data, allowing to identify the high-symmetry points of phonons involved in the scattering and, when possible, to ascribe the main non-Γ structures of the spectra to the knownK andM point modes. This analysis brings to several new attributions, also ruling out some previous assignments, based on the separate study of either Raman or IR spectra.

    Notes: Abstract The increase in plasma concentration of atrial natriuretic factor in heart transplant patients has not been fully elucidated. Besides an eventual pressure or volume overload leading to passive atrial distension, the atrial tension developed during atrial systole, or atrial ejection force, which may be increased by the transplantation procedure, is an important determinant of atrial natriuretic factor release. We therefore determined the plasma concentration of atrial natriuretic factor and the maximal atrial ejection force in 15 heart transplant patients and 8 controls, matched for age and body mass. Atrial ejection force, as defined as the force exerted by the left atrium to accelerate blood into the left ventricle during atrial systole, was obtained using combined two-dimensional imaging and doppler echocardiography. Serum creatinin concentrations, heart rate [91.9 (SD 13.2) vs 71.8 (SD 10.9) beats · min−1], mean arterial blood pressure [103.9 (SD 9.8) vs 87.4 (SD 5.8) mmHg, 13.85 (SD 1.31) vs 11.65 (SD 0.77) kPa], left ventricular posterior wall thickness and interventricular septum thickness were higher in heart transplant patients compared to controls. Plasma concentration of atrial natriuretic factor was also elevated in heart transplant patients [63.9 (SD 18.1) vs 34.0 (SD 3.2) pg · ml−1; P〈0.001]. In contrast, although the left atrial area was greater in heart transplant patients [28.2 (SD 4.8) vs 15.8 (SD 2.5) cm2; P〈0.001], mitral area, transmitral Doppler A-wave maximal velocity and atrial ejection force were similar in transplant and in control patients [7.7 (SD 3.5) vs 8.9 (SD 2.8) kdyn, 77 (SD 35) vs 89 (SD 28) mN]. No significant correlation was observed between concentration of atrial natriuretic factor and atrial ejection force, either in heart transplant patients or in controls. Thus, the elevated plasma concentration of atrial natriuretic factor observed in these heart transplant patients was multifactorial in origin, and was considered to depend upon an hypersecretion rather than upon a decreased clearance rate. Moreover, it is suggested that the atrial ejection force was unlikely to have participated in this enhanced release of atrial natriuretic factor.
