    Notes: S-Cam is a cryogenic optical camera for ground-based astronomy designed around a 6×6 array of superconducting tunnel junctions. It has been conceived as a technology demonstrator, aimed at proving the potential of a new generation of single photon counting detectors for ground-based telescopes and as a possible precursor to a future space-based instrumentation. The camera is based on a 6×6 array of Ta–Al Josephson junctions, operating at about 350 mK and individually read out. For each detected photon, the absorption position, the arrival time, and the corresponding energy are measured. This allows for recording an image and simultaneously obtaining spectrophotometric information from the observed objects. In this article we provide an overview of the latest cryogenic detector performance, an up-to-date description of the S-Cam system, and a summary of the results obtained both during testing at ESTEC and during actual observations at the William Herschel Telescope in La Palma (Canary Islands, Spain). An example of the novel astronomical data obtained during the latest observation campaigns (December 1999 and April 2000) is also described. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Analytical and numerical analysis of Debye–Ramm's equation for the polarization density distribution in polar materials (1994)

    Notes: Due to dipole interaction, the molecular polarization brought about by an external field is significantly lower in condensed matter (liquids) than in a gas. In addition to this, the response of interacting dipoles to stepwise changes of the external field does not follow a simple time exponential. Instead, a spectrum of relaxation times is required to describe such a response. Debye and Ramm [Ann. Phys. 28, 28 (1937)] have attempted to describe the effects associated with rotational hindrances due to dipole-dipole interaction by the following differential equation: ∂f/∂t =(kT/ρ)Δf+(1/ρ)div(f grad u), where f denotes the distribution function specifying the number of dipoles pointing in a certain solid angle, t the time, ρ a friction coefficient, and u the potential of the forces acting on the dipoles. The latter quantity depends both on the external field and on the contribution from the dipole-dipole interaction (internal field). Although unable to solve the above equation explicitly, Debye and Ramm (DR) made some predictions about the solution, concluding, among other things, that the inclusion of an internal field E would yield a process with a discrete spectrum of relaxation times. Finding such prospect highly interesting, we subjected the DR equation to a close study using some advanced mathematical tools (Fourier integral operators etc.). Contrary to the conclusions of DR, we found that the above equation cannot be solved in the way originally described, and that the conjectured eigenfunctions and eigenvalues do not exist. Furthermore, we show that, in contrast to DR's statements, the above equation is not solved by certain classical expressions relating to free-rotating dipoles (no internal field). The lack of physical content of this equation appears to be due to a number of not permissible simplifications.

    Coherent elastic and rotationally inelastic scattering of N2, O2, and CH4 from a 10 K Cu(111) surface (2000)

    Notes: We report observations of coherent elastic and rotationally inelastic scattering of N2, O2, and CH4 from a 10 K Cu(111) surface, kept clean by pulsed laser heating. The related sharp features in the measured angular distributions decrease drastically in intensity at elevated target temperatures. At low temperature rotational transitions reduce the elastic scattering probability by about an order of magnitude. This effect is weak for D2 at the impact conditions of concern. Quantum scattering calculations for N2 and D2 show that this difference is primarily caused by the large difference in rotational constants and the associated rotational transition energies of these molecules. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Effects of lumbricids and enchytraeids on nematodes in limed and unlimed coniferous mor humus (1994)

    Notes: Abstract In a factorial laboratory experiment, specimens of Dendrobaena octaedra (Lumbricidae) and Cognettia sphagnetorum (Enchytraeidae) were added to microcosms with unlimed (pH 4.5) and limed (pH 5.5) coniferous mor humus containing bacteria, fungi, protozoans, and nematodes. Effects on the nematodes were assessed after an incubation period of 207 days at 15°C and a soil moisture content of 60% water-holding capacity. When D. octaedra was absent, nematodes were significantly more abundant in the limed humus than in the unlimed humus. The presence of D. octaedra markedly reduced the number of nematodes in the limed humus but not in the unlimed one, where D. octaedra lost weight and probably did not feed. Most nematodes (92–97%) were bacterial-feeders. The presence of D. octaedra did not decrease the number or biomass of bacteria, indicating that the reduction in nematode numbers was not the result of competition for bacteria between D. octaedra and the nematodes. The presence of C. sphagnetorum had no effect on the nematodes in either of the treatments. We suggest that the reason why D. octaedra, but not C. sphagnetorum, reduced nematode numbers is that the former was more likely to inadvertently ingest the nematodes because of its much greater size. The results provide a possible explanation for the observation that liming sometimes enhances nematode populations, when lumbricids do not respond to the treatment, and sometimes causes decreases, when lumbricids increase in number.

    Impairment of estramustine phosphate absorption by concurrent intake of milk and food (1990)
    Springer
    European journal of clinical pharmacology 38 (1990), S. 189-193

    Notes: Summary The effect of milk and food on the pharmacokinetics of estramustine phosphate was investigated in six patients with prostatic cancer. In a randomized three-way cross-over study, the patients were given single doses of the drug together with low calcium water, low calcium food and milk. The evaluation was based upon the plasma concentration of two metabolites, estromustine and estrone, as parent drug could not be detected in plasma. The tmax and lag time of estromustine were significantly increased by milk and food intake and Cmax and AUC were significantly decreased. In comparison with water, the AUC of estromustine was 41% when the drug was taken with milk and 67% after simultaneous intake of standardized food. Corresponding figures for the peak values were 32 and 57%, respectively. The effect of milk and food intake on the pharmacokinetics of estrone was similar. Studies in vitro demonstrated that the dissolution of estramustine phosphate disodium was markedly impaired in the presence of calcium. It was concluded that the rate and extent of absorption of estramustine phosphate were decreased when the drug was taken with milk or food due to the formation of a poorly absorbable calcium complex. To obtain high and reproducible absorption of Estracyt®, the drug should not be taken together with milk, milk products or other calcium-rich food or drugs.

    Effects of salinity and bromine on zygotes and embryos of Fucus vesiculosus from the Baltic Sea (1992)

    Notes: Abstract Zygotes and young embryos derived from Fucus vesiculosus collected in the archipelgo of Stockholm in 1990, growing at a salinity of 6 to 7‰ S, were cultured under different salinity conditions and in media of different bromine concentrations. Optimum salinity was 10 to 12‰ S for germination (rhizoid initiation) while apical hair formation showed a broader tolerance curve with an optimum at 8 to 14‰ S. Bromine caused inhibition of early development of F. vesiculosus. At 6‰ salinity a 50% reduction in germination took place at 10.0 mM Br and at 1.25 mM Br only 4.7% of the embryos developed apical hairs, as compared to 32.7% in the control. Bromine toxicity decreased at higher salinities. The results indicate that F. vesiculosus in the Baltic Sea has diverged from its Atlantic progenitors and to some extent acclimated to low salinity. Still, the salinity in the normal environment of the tested population is lower than optimum, leading to a lower degree of germination of zygotes, a lower growth rate of young embryos and probably also a higher sensitivity to additional stress factors such as chemical pollution.

    Notes: Abstract The thermal conductivity and heat capacity per unit volume of poly(methyl methacrylate) (25 and 350 kg · mol− in molecular weight) have been measured in the temperature range 155–358 K at pressures up to 2 GPa using the transient hot-wire method. The bulk modulus has been measured up to 1.0 GPa at 294 K and yielded a constant valueg = 3.4 ± 0.3 for the Bridgman parameter. No dependence on molecular weight could be detected in the properties we measured.
