    Thermal expansion anomalies of R(Fe, M)(12) (R=Y, Nd; M=Mo and Si)

    No full text
    Structural and thermal-expansion anomaly studies on R(Fe,M)(12) (R=Nd and and Y, M=Mo and Si) compounds were performed by x-ray diffraction. Mo atoms occupy the 8i site. While Si atoms occupy the 8f and 8j sites but not the 8i site. Thermal-expansion anomaly shows only in ab plane in the Mo compounds, while becomes very weak and along with only the c axis in the Si compounds. The anomaly was attributed to the contribution of the interactions of short Fe-Fe distances similar to the previous explanation on other R-Fe intermetallics and that of other strongly positive interactions such as 8j-8j.

    A 2 h periodic variation in the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1

    No full text
    Spectroscopy of the low-mass X-ray binary Ser X-1 using the Gran Telescopio Canarias have revealed a ?2 h periodic variability that is present in the three strongest emission lines. We tentatively interpret this variability as due to orbital motion, making it the first indication of the orbital period of Ser X-1. Together with the fact that the emission lines are remarkably narrow, but still resolved, we show that a main-sequence K dwarf together with a canonical 1.4 M? neutron star gives a good description of the system. In this scenario, the most likely place for the emission lines to arise is the accretion disc, instead of a localized region in the binary (such as the irradiated surface or the stream-impact point), and their narrowness is due instead to the low inclination (?10°) of Ser X-1

    "Closing the R&D Gap, Evaluating the Sources of R&D Spending"

    No full text
    Both spending and tax policies have been implemented in the United States with the goal of stimulating private sector research and development (R&D). Karier questions whether current R&D policy, especially the research and experimentation tax credit, can contribute to closing the gap between nondefense expenditures on R&D in the United States and such expenditures in other countries, such as Japan and Germany. He also explores possible changes to our current R&D policy to make it more effective.

    Biochemical and genetic studies of wild type and attenuated vaccine strains of bluetongue virus

    No full text
    Typescript (photocopy).A biochemical, and genetic examination of the tetravalent, attenuated vaccine for bluetongue virus (BTV) developed at Texas A&M was undertaken. These studies were aimed at (i) identifying reliable vaccine-associated markers, (ii) determining the genetic stability of the vaccine, and (iii) examining the molecular basis of attenuation in BTV. Comparative growth studies showed that maximal yields of all strains were obtained when cell monolayers were harvested early after the onset of cytopathic effects. One-step growth curves showed an altered growth kinetics for type 13 V. The four V strains were temperature-sensitive (ts) for growth at 39�� and for plaque formation at 37��. Recombination tests indicated that the ts lesions of the vaccine strains were on different reassorting genome segments. Electrophoretic comparisons of the genome RNAs, proteins, and protease digests of individual proteins species from homotypic W:V pairs revealed numerous differences. Only changes in segment 2 and its product were seen in all four W:V pairs. Changes in genome segment 2 of 10V, 11V, and 13V were detected by both direct electrophoretic analysis of genomic RNAs and partial protease analyses of the segment 2 gene product. Changes in genome segment 2 of 17V could only be inferred from the heat lability of the segment 2 product. Analyses of mixed infections between heterotypic BTV strains revealed that reassortment of genome segments between V strains and W strains, occurred at high frequency. These analyses also allowed the tentative assignment of the ts lesions of 10V and 17V to genome segments 4 and 5, respectively. This study has yielded significant results relative to the original aims. Several differences in the biological and biochemical properties of the vaccine strains that may serve as reliable vaccine markers were identified. The results of this study have been used to construct the hypothesis that mutations in genome segment 2 of the vaccine strains are responsible for the attenuated phenotype of the vaccine. If the hypothesis that attenuating mutations are located in genome segment 2 of each vaccine strain is correct, the tetravalent attenuated vaccine will be genetically stable. Finally, these results suggest that genome segment 2 of BTV encodes a product that is important in determining the virulence phenotype of the virus
