    Notes: Abstract We present numerical simulations of solitary wave emission from a waveguide in which the cladding is the non-linear material polydiacetylene para-toluene sulfphonate (PTS). In addition to a self-focusing cubic non-linearity PTS exhibits a defocusing quintic non- linearity, which imposes a limit on the peak non-linear index change. The influence of this limiting on solitary wave emission is studied in detail in one transverse dimension, and we show that it can increase the fraction of the incident power transferred into the emitted solitary wave. Fabrication issues arising from the limiting are also discussed. Numerical simulations in two transverse dimensions are also presented showing stable emitted solitary waves due to the stabilizing effect of the limiting, in contrast to the self-focusing collapse which occurs for a cubic non-linearity.

    Notes: Abstract We present a tutorial review of all-optical switching in fibre and integrated optics waveguides. These switching devices require non-linear refractive index changes in single or coupled waveguides, and involve either the low-power guided modes of the structure or soliton-type waves guided, emitted or captured by waveguides. We discuss the physical principles involved in these all-optical switching schemes, material requirements, recent experiments and limitations. A representative rather than comprehensive list of references is provided.

    Notes: Abstract A numerical study of the all-optical switching properties of an active nonlinear directional coupler is presented. The switching power is reduced for both CW and soliton inputs because of the gain. The switching properties of the coupler are enhanced for solitons, which switch nearly completely. For ultrashort pulses, the effects of the bandwidth of the gain medium are considered by using a general form for the gain band. The gain spectrum of erbium is also considered as a specific example.

    Notes: Abstract The propagation of ultrashort optical pulses in semiconductor-doped glass waveguides is investigated theoretically for wavelengths below the half bandgap. The linear and non-linear properties of the composites are obtained and a field equation for pulse propagation is derived. This equation yields a new family of sub-picosecond optical solitons which are observed in numerical simulations. Interesting applications are anticipated for ultrafast all-optical signal processing.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé L'étude a porté sur les interactions pendant le développement de l'hyménoptère encyrtidae, Encyrtus saliens, et deux de ses hôtes, homoptères coccidae, Pulvinariella mesembryanthemi Vallot et Pulvinaria delottoi Gill se développant sur Carpobrotus sp. (Aizoaceae). Le Parasitisme modifie la mortalité et les mouvements des hôtes sur la plante aux faibles températures. Le seuil de développement des hôtes a été inférieur à celui des parasitoïdes. A des températures 〈 à 17°C, leur développement critique leur a permis de dominer les interactions, avec l'arrêt du développement de E. saliens et de poursuivre ainsi la croissance normale jusqu'à l'ovisac. P. delottoi est considéré comme un hôte favorisant moins que P. mesembryanthemi le développement et la pérennité des populations du parasitoïde parce que: a) le développement de P. delottoi a demandé plus d'unités thermiques, bien que les seuils aient été les mêmes pour les deux hôtes; b) pour des hôtes de même taille initiale, P. delottoi croît moins que P. mesembryanthemi pendant le développement due parasitoïde et lui fournit ainsi moins de ressources, ce qui a donné des encyrtides de taille plus réduite lors de l'émergence; c) pour des hôtes de même taille finale, les femelles de E. saliens provenant de P. delottoi étaient plus petites; d) comme la relation entre la fécondité et la taille de ces encyrtides était linéaire, la fécondité de E. saliens était plus faible; e) bien que les hôtes des deux espèces convenant à la ponte aient eu les mêmes variations de tailles, les femelles d'E. saliens ont moins pondu dans les petits P. delottoi que dans les petits P. mesembryanthemum, et plus dans les gros P. delottoi que dans les gros P. mesembryanthemum.
    Notes: Abstract Developmental interactions were studied in the laboratory between Encyrtus saliens Prinsloo & Annecke (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) and its two host species, Pulvinariella mesembryanthemi (Vallot) and Pulvinaria delottoi Gill (Homoptera: Coccidae) on Carpobrotus sp. (Aizoaceae) Parasitization affected mortality and movement of the hosts on the plant at low temperatures. The lower developmental threshold of hosts compared to parasitoids allowed hosts held at ≤17°C to reach a critical developmental point for control of the interaction and suppress development of E. saliens and continue normal development to ovisac. P. delottoi was considered to be a less suitable host for development and maintenance of parasitoid populations than P. mesembryanthemi because (a) development in P. delottoi required more thermal units, although the threshold was the same in both hosts; (b) from the same initial host size, P. delottoi grew less than P. mesembryanthemi during parasitoid development and thus provided less resource for the developing parasitoid, which emerged smaller; (c) for the same final host size, female parasitoids emerging from P. delottoi were smaller; (d) parasitoid fecundity was linearly related to female size and females reared from P. delottoi were less fecund because they were smaller; (e) although the same size range of both host species was accepted for oviposition, female eggs were laid at a lower rate in the small P. delottoi and at a higher rate in the large P. delottoi compared to P. mesembryanthemi.

    Notes: Summary Samples of fish from freshwater sources of rivers, lakes and ponds all over the state of South Carolina were collected during the Summer of 1974 and 1975. The fish collected were Bass,A Bluegill, Redbreast, Catfish, Shad, Carp, Crappie, Mudfish and Pike. Samples were analyzed using the flameless atomic absorption procedure outlined by Hatch and Ott, and Uthe et al as modified for use with Perkin-Elmer, Coleman MAS-50 mercury analyzer. Triplicate samples of fish tissue were analyzed by wet digestion method. The mean mercury levels in ppb were determined for baseline mercury levels. A significant finding of this report is that those species for which fish of widely differing weights were analyzed, larger fish had higher mercury levels. Mercury levels exceeding the U.S. Food and Drug Administration guideline of 500 ppb for fish tissues have been found in the Mudfish from Edisto River and Pike fish from Lake Murray. Higher levels of mercury occurred in the highly vascularized blood tissues of liver and kidney than in muscle. Carnivorous and bottom-feeding fishes are the most reliable indicators of mercury pollution.
