    Notes: The quantization of the exciton translational motion in CuCl thin films, having a thickness much less than the photon wavelength and overlying a substrate, is theoretically investigated by employing the 45° reflectometry. We show that the resonances associated with quantized longitudinal excitons can be directly measured by means of such a polarization-modulation technique despite the relatively large damping factors for very thin films. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: It is shown that the spectra given by the difference between the reflectivity for p-polarized light and the squared reflectivity for s-polarized light (Rp−Rs2) with an angle of incidence of 45° can be used for directly determining the frequencies of zone-center transverse optical (ωTO) and longitudinal optical (ωLO) phonons in very thin polar-semiconductor films on substrates. These spectra are also useful for measuring resonance frequencies of both transverse and longitudinal optical confined phonons in ultrathin layers of superlattices. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Development in the field of high-power laser systems with repetition rates of several Hz and energies of few joules is highly active and opening, giving new possibilities for the design of laser ions sources. Preliminary investigations on the use of four different laser and target configurations are presented: (1) A small CO2 laser (100 mJ, 10.6 μm) focused onto a polyethylene target to produce C ions at 1 Hz repetition rate (CERN). (2) An excimer XeCl laser (6 J, 308 nm) focused onto solid targets (Frascati). (3) A femtosecond Ti: sapphire laser (250 mJ, 800 nm) directed onto a solid targets (Jena). (4) A picosecond Nd: yttrium–aluminum–garnet (0.3 J, 532 nm) focused into a dense medium of atomic clusters and onto solid targets (London). The preliminary experimental results and the most promising schemes will be discussed with respect to the scaling of the production of high numbers of highly charged ions. Different lasers are compared in terms of current density at 1 m distance for each charge state. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A laser ion source using a CO2 laser focused onto a solid target is under study at CERN for the production of high currents of highly charged heavy ions, for possible use in the preinjector for the large hadron collider. A new expansion and extraction layout was installed in this test facility, improving the alignment and making the target to extraction distance more flexible. A two solenoid beam transport system was studied for providing the matching of the beam to a radio-frequency quadrupole. An electrostatic beam transport using gridded electrostatic lenses was designed and constructed as an alternative to a magnetic system. Results show an increased overall current transmission for the electrostatic case. Investigation of the laser parameters required for the production of 1.4×1010 Pb25+ ions in a 5 μs pulse, has been performed using the TIR-1 laser facility at power densities up to 1014 W cm−2 for a focal spot size of 65 μm. The results of the latest scaling are presented. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract: Phosphatidylethanol is formed by phospholipase D in animal cells exposed to ethanol. Previous reports have demonstrated that the degradation of phosphatidylethanol is slow, indicating that this lipid may be present in the cells after ethanol itself has disappeared. Accumulation of an abnormal alcohol metabolite may influence cellular functions. In the present study, cultivation of NG108–15 neuroblastoma × glioma hybrid cells in the presence of ethanol resulted in an accumulation of phosphatidylethanol and a simultaneous increase in basal inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels. The direct effects of phosphatidylethanol on the phosphoinositide signal transduction system were examined through incorporation of exogenous phosphatidylethanol into membranes of ethanol-naive cells. An incorporation amounting to 2.8% of cellular phospholipids was achieved after a 5-h incubation with 30 μM phosphatidylethanol. Phosphatidylethanol was found to cause a time-and dose-dependent increase in the basal levels of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate. The effects on inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels of exogenously added phosphatidylethanol and ethanol exposure for 2 days were not additive. No effect on bradykinin-stimulated inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate production could be detected. However, the increase in basal inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate levels indicates that phosphatidylethanol affects inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate turnover and emphasizes the importance of considering phosphatidylethanol as a possible mediator of ethanol-induced effects on cellular processes.

    Notes: Abstract: The effects of MgCl2 on the binding of tritiated ligands to opioid binding sites in homogenates of guinea-pig brain in HEPES buffer have been studied. The binding of tritiated μ-, δ, and κ-opioid agonists was promoted in a concentration-dependent manner over a range of MgCl2 concentrations from 0.1 mM to 10 mM, as was binding of the nonselective antagonists [3H]diprenorphine and [3H]naloxone. At concentrations of MgCl2 above 10 mM reversal of this effect was observed. The effects of MgCl2 on binding parameters differed at each site. The promoting effects of MgCl2 were mimicked by MnCl2, CaCl2, and MgSO4, but CoCl2 and ZnCl2 were inhibitory. Following treatment of guinea-pig brain synaptosomes at pH 11.5 to eliminate G proteins, the binding of the μ-opioid agonist [3H][D-Ala2, MePhe4, Gly-ol5]enkephalin and [3H]naloxone was much reduced but binding of [3H]diprenorphine was unaffected. Under these conditions MgCl2 still promoted binding of [3H]diprenorphine. The results suggest that Mg2+ ions promote binding by an action at the opioid receptor, even in the absence of G protein, and that opioid antagonists may differ in their recognition of opioid receptor binding sites.

    Notes: Abstract: Long-term ethanol exposure is known to inhibit bradykinin-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis in cultures of neuroblastoma × glioma 108–15 cells. In the present study, [3H]bradykinin binding, GTP-binding protein function, and phospholipase C activity were assayed in cells grown for 4 days in 100 mM ethanol with the aim of elucidating the molecular target of ethanol on signal transduction coupled to inositol trisphosphate and diacylglycerol formation. Ethanol exposure reduced guanosine 5′-O-(3-thiotriphosphate) [GTP(S)]- and, to a lesser extent, NaF/AlCl3-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis, whereas it had no effect on the enzymatic activity of a phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate-specific phospholipase C. [3H]Bradykinin binding in the absence of GTP(S) was not influenced by ethanol exposure. However, the reduction in [3H]bradykinin binding seen in control cells after addition of GTP analogue was inhibited in cells grown in ethanol-containing medium. The results indicate that long-term ethanol exposure exerts its effects on receptor-stimulated phosphoinositide hydrolysis primarily at the level of the GTP-binding protein.

    Notes: The surface resistance R of melt-processing samples is investigated as a function of the radio wave amplitude H in the low frequency range. We found an unusual dependence R(H) for samples with high critical current density. The rate of change of R(H) has a minimum at amplitudes H around the lower critical magnetic field Hc. This phenomenon is explained within the proposed theoretical model which takes into account the critical intercrystallite currents as well as the intracrystallite ones. The nature of the effect is connected with the increase of the crystallite screening capability which occurs at the transition of the crystallites to the Bean critical state.

    Notes: The influence of the electromagnetic properties of the substrate upon the size effect in hard superconductors is theoretically studied. Within the frame of the critical state model we calculate the distribution of the magnetic induction and the electric field inside a superconducting plate subject to unilateral electromagnetic excitation. This calculation allows to obtain the dependences of surface impedance and absorptivity on the amplitude of the external signal. We find that the manifestation of the size effect in the ac response of the superconducting plate depends strongly on the value of the dielectric constant of the substrate. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The manifestation of flux-line cutting in the magnetic behavior of a type-II superconductor, either (i) subjected to a rotating magnetic field, or (ii) undergoing slow oscillations in a static magnetic field, is investigated theoretically. We have applied both the generalized double critical-state model and the two-velocity hydrodynamic one to interpret available experimental results for oscillating disks of Nb. The hydrodynamic model generates only closed hysteresis loops, after the first full oscillation, in accordance with the experimental hysteresis loops observed at a relatively small amplitude of oscillation, θmax=45°. However, at larger amplitudes of oscillation, several measured loops are evidently open. This behavior as well as their asymmetric form could be reproduced only by the generalized double critical-state model. The limits of applicability of both models are discussed. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.
