    Notes: Summary After partial ablation of the superior colliculus (tectum) in neonatal hamsters, the whole extent of the visual field comes to be represented in a compressed map on the remaining tectal fragment. However, the total volume of tectal tissue in which retinotectal fibers arborize is less than normal. These observations suggest that the retinal ganglion cells which arborize in this reduced volume might arise throughout the whole extent of the retina but be fewer in number than normal. Alternatively, the ganglion cells which project to the tectum might be normal in number but reduced in terminal arbor size. To distinguish between these possibilities, we have used tectal injections of horseradish peroxidase to label retinal ganglion cells which project to the tectum. The numbers of labelled cells per mm2 of retina were counted in selected regions. In hamsters with small lesions, which left 80–85% of the tectum intact, the density of labelled retinal ganglion cells was normal. However, in hamsters with larger lesions, the density of labelled cells was significantly lower than normal.

    Notes: Abstract During the last year, two earthquakes caused a great loss in human lives and much property damage in Algeria and Italy. These events raise the question of whether the engineering seismology methods currently in use are adequate. It can be shown that the seismic input parameters for planning and design of structures in earthquake-prone areas may be deduced from experience. The development of seismic response spectra on a statistical basis offers the possibility of making assumptions about future seismic loads taking the regional seismicity and the local underground situation into account.

    Description / Table of Contents: Summary The variation of state in a gas with constant mass inside a cylinder closed by a moving piston is considered. The piston velocity is assumed to be very small compared with the sound velocity in the gas; the piston stroke may be of the same order of magnitude as the length of the cylinder. The problem is governed by two time scales with different orders of magnitude; a cumulative effect due to local perturbations of the sound velocity has to be taken into account. Therefore, the problem has been solved by a simultaneous application of the method of multiple scaling and the analytical characteristics method. The quasistatic approximation is recovered from the condition that secular terms in the results for the second order flow quantities have to vanish. Then the second order solutions are uniquely determined without recourse to the third order equations. Multiply reflected shock waves are found by using Pfriem's formula.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Die Zustandsänderung eines, in einem Zylinder eingeschlossenen Gases konstanter Masse, dessen Volumen durch einen bewegten Kolben verändert werden kann, wird untersucht. Die Kolbengeschwindigkeit wird als klein im Vergleich zur Schallgeschwindigkeit im Gas, der Kolbenhub als von der Größenordnung der Zylinderlänge angenommen. Die Fragestellung ist durch das gleichzeitige Auftreten zweier charakteristischer Zeiten verschiedener Größenordnung bestimmt; ein kumulativer Effekt, der durch die Störung der lokalen Schallgeschwindigkeit zustande kommt, muß berücksichtigt werden. Darum wurde das Problem durch simultane Anwendung der Methode der Mehrfachen Variablen und des analytischen Charakteristikenverfahrens gelöst. Dabei wurde die quasistatische Näherung aus der Bedingung bestimmt, daß in der zweiten Näherung die Ergebnisse der Zustandsgrößen keine Säkularterme enthalten dürfen. Die Lösungen zweiter Ordnung sind dann ohne Kenntnis der dritten Ordnung festgelegt. Zur Ermittlung mehrfach reflektierter Verdichtungsstöße wurde die Pfriemsche Formel verwendet.
