    Notes: This article presents results of experimental study on the engineering issues of using ring-shaped thin-film head and single layered perpendicularly orientated media for high density magnetic recording. Comparing with the experiment conducted with longitudinal media, this combination is of smaller sensitivity of its nonlinear transition shift to the variation of the head–disk spacing, smaller writing current for saturation recording even if the media coercivity is 25% higher than that of the longitudinal counterpart. Furthermore, the width of its erasure band is quite comparable to the case using longitudinal media, if the writing current is selected properly. On the other hand, the combination is of slightly larger asymmetry of its track profile and slightly more sensitive to the skew angle increment, if the anisotropic magnetoresistive head is used for reading. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Slider disk impact, especially the impact with particles in between, generates flash temperatures at the contact area and creates thermal stress in the magnetic layer of disk media. By modeling the effective magnetic fields of the thermal stress and the thermal agitation, the flash temperature induced magnetic degradation is studied via micro-magnetic simulation. It is noticed that the recorded bit pattern can be fully erased near the area of the maximum thermal stress if the flash temperature approaches 673 K (grain size: 12 nm). The bit patterns with higher bit density corresponds to higher likelihood of data erasure if other conditions are the same. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A nonlinear dynamics theory is presented for modeling air bearing slider systems. The nonlinear dynamic coefficients are acquired by fitting the database of the discrete linear dynamic coefficients. The linear dynamic coefficients for an air bearing slider around steady flying state are calculated by using a Reynolds-equation-based perturbation method. A nonlinear analysis shows that the natural frequencies of the system decrease with the increase of slider vibration amplitude, and that the softening feature of the system bends the resonance to lower frequency and complicates the system vibrations. The analysis correlates with experimental results. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: CANDINAS, R., et al.: Impact of Fusion Avoidance on Performance of the Automatic Threshold Tracking Feature in Dual Chamber Pacemakers: A Multicenter Prospective Randomized Study. The Autocapture algorithm enables automatic capture verification on a beat-by-beat basis by recognizing the evoked response signal following each pacemaker stimulus. The algorithm intends to increase patient safety while decreasing energy consumption. However, the occurrence of fusion beats, particularly during dual chamber pacing, may limit the energy saving effect of Autocapture. The aim of this multicenter, prospective, randomized study was to evaluate the impact of the Fusion Avoidance (FA) algorithm on the incidence of fusion beats. Thirty-eight patients (mean age 69 ± 13 years) with intrinsic AV conduction who were implanted with an Affinity DR were studied. After programming a PV/AV delay of 120/190 ms, patients were randomized to FA On or Off. Each group was further randomized with respect to activation of the AutoIntrinsic Conduction Search (AICS) algorithm. The total number of beats, ventricular paced beats, fusion beats, backup pulses, and threshold searches were analyzed from 24-hour Holter recordings. The number of total beats was comparable in both FA groups. The number of total ventricular paced beats, fusion beats, backup pulses, and threshold searches were significantly reduced in the FA On group (% reduction: 68% P 〈 0.001, 75% P 〈 0.01, 95% P 〈 0.01, and 94% P 〈 0.05, respectively). The number of ventricular paced beats with full capture was significantly reduced when AICS was activated (P 〈 0.05). In conclusion, the FA algorithm substantially reduces the amount of ventricular paced beats, fusion beats, unnecessary backup pulses and threshold searches, and therefore, provides added benefits in energy saving obtained by Autocapture.

    Notes: Pacing threshold is affected by many factors. A pacing system able to confirm capture at each beat and automatically adjust its output close to the actual pacing threshold is highly desirable. This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of the Autocapture function of the Pacesetter Microny SR+. One hundred thirteen patients were recruited from 16 centers in 7 European countries and followed up for 1 year. All pacemakers were implanted with Pacesetter's low polarization, bipolar leads. The key feature of Autocapture is the immediate delivery of a 4.5 V safety backup pulse 62.5 ms after any ineffective ongoing low output pulse. Holter recordings confirmed total reliability of this feature without any exit block. The measured evoked response (ER) signal was stable over time. Acute and chronic pacing thresholds measured by VARIO and Autocapture tests correlated (r 〉 0.79) over the period of the study. The incidence of backup pulses was 1.1% during pacing. With Autocapture programmed ON, the overall total current consumption was 4.1 μA for VVI and 5.0 μA for VVIR pacing. Tbis study proved that the Autocapture safely and reliably regulates the pacemaker's output according to the prevailing threshold thus providing maximum patient safety and prolonging service life.

    Notes: The kinetic behavior of both crystallization and dissolution of solid particles in liquid solutions is investigated. The effect of heat on the phenomena under consideration is taken into account. Although the present analysis is based on ellipsoidal particles, it can be extended to particles of various geometries by choosing an appropriate transformation. We show that the rate of dissolution increases with the decrease in particle size, and the greater the curvature of a surface, the faster the rate. On the other hand, the rate of growth of a crystal decreases with the increase of its size. For both dissolution and crystallization, the greater the curvature of a surface, the faster the rate of change in the particle size. In the analysis of the effect of the heat of dissolution/crystallization, we conclude that the rate of variation in the size of a particle for dissolution follows the order exothermic(approximately-greater-than)isothermal(approximately-greater-than)endothermic. No general rule is found for crystallization. The experimental data for the growth of ferrite allotriomorphs in Fe–C alloys reported in the literature is analyzed to justify the applicability of the present model. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In the filamentous fungus Aspergillus nidulans, the multisubunit motor complex cytoplasmic dynein plays essential roles in nuclear migration and septum positioning. The 8 kDa light chain, LC8, the smallest subunit, is conserved among eukaryotic organisms. Besides being a component in the dynein complex, LC8 also interacts with a wide spectrum of mammalian and viral proteins. To date, the function of this small polypeptide is not well understood. To address this issue, we have created a deletion mutation (ΔnudG) at the nudG locus encoding LC8 in A. nidulans. At 42°C, the ΔnudG mutant forms minute colonies lacking asexual reproduction: this phenotype resembles the phenotype of the dynein heavy chain null mutant. The mutant nuclei largely clustered in the spore body after conidial germination, and the septum was often assembled distally toward the hyphal apex, whereas a control germling has its nuclei distributed along the hypha and the septum formed near the spore body. When the mutant was grown at 23°C, however, its colony resembled a control one, and so did the patterns of nuclear distribution and septum positioning. Elevation of the growth temperature gradually reduced colony size and abolished asexual sporulation. After a period of growth at 23°C that allowed the nuclei to move out of the spore end, a temperature shift to 42°C prevented newly divided nuclei from migrating apart, suggesting that LC8/NUDG was required for both initiating and maintaining dynein motor functions at elevated temperatures. A functional GFP-NUDA fusion was used to test whether LC8/NUDG is required for DHC (dynein heavy chain)/NUDA localization. We found that at 23°C GFP-NUDA localized to the hyphal apex and the septation site in ΔnudG cells as in control cells. Such localizations were absent at 42°C in mutant cells, but not in control cells. We conclude that LC8 plays a role in DHC localization/function, and the requirement for such a role in A. nidulans cells is temperature dependent.

    Notes: The morphological transitions during directional quenching-induced spinodal decomposition in binary mixtures are investigated by computer simulation. By setting the quenching front between the stable and unstable phases, and shifting the front with a constant velocity, the evolution of the domain morphologies is examined numerically on the basis of the time-dependent Ginzburg–Landau (TDGL) equation. Three different types of morphologies are found for the critical quenching. One is irregular morphology (IM), which is essentially equivalent to that produced by homogeneous quenching. The other two are regular, representing the characteristics of the directional quenching process. One is regular lamellar morphology (RLM) and the other is regular column morphology (RCM). By varying the shifting velocity of the cooling front, two morphological transition velocities, va from IM to RLM, and vi from RLM to RCM, are observed. In contrast to that, for the case of off-critical quenching, a new transition velocity vb from RCM back to RLM can be found if the cooling front is further shifted slower. This characteristic morphological transition is attributed to the surface enrichment effect appearing in the nonequal volume fraction system, which competes with linear instability triggered by initial thermal fluctuation in the early stage of spinodal decomposition. Detailed studies reveal that RLM can be easily formed and thus the region of RCM is reduced when the surface enrichment effect is stronger. On the other hand, RCM will be preferred if the initial thermal fluctuation is stronger. The quantitative relation between lamella width and shifting velocity of the cooling front is also presented. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.
