    Description: Numerical and analytical solutions to the steady compressible Euler equations corresponding to a compressible analogue of the linear Stuart vortex array are presented. These correspond to a homentropic continuation, to finite Mach number, of the Stuart solution describing a linear vortex array in an incompressible fluid. The appropriate partial differential equations describing the flow correspond to the compressible homentropic Euler equations in two dimensions, with a prescribed vorticity-density-streamfunction relationship. In order to construct a well-posed problem for this continuation, it was found, unexpectedly, to be necessary to introduce an eigenvalue into the vorticity-density-streamfunction equation. In the Rayleigh-Janzen expansion of solutions in even powers of the free-stream Mach number M(∞), this eigenvalue is determined by a solvability condition. Accurate numerical solution by both finite-difference and spectral methods are presented for the compressible Stuart vortex, over a range of M(∞), and of a parameter corresponding to a confined mass-flow rate. These also confirm the nonlinear eigenvalue character of the governing equations. All solution branches followed numerically were found to terminate when the maximum local Mach number just exceeded unity. For one such branch we present evidence for the existence of a very small range of M(∞) over which smooth transonic shock-free flow can occur.

    Description: The lift force on a circular particle in plane Poiseuille flow perpendicular to gravity is studied by direct numerical simulation. The angular slip velocity Ωs = Ωp + 1/2 ̇c where - 1/2 ̇c is the angular velocity of the fluid at a point where the shear rate is ̇c and Ωp is the angular velocity of the particle, is always positive at an equilibrium position at which the hydrodynamic lift balances the buoyant weight. The particle migrates to its equilibrium position and adjusts Ωp so that Ωs 〉 0 is nearly zero because Ωp ≈ -1/2 ̇c No matter where the particle is placed, it drifts to an equilibrium position with a unique, slightly positive equilibrium angular slip velocity. The angular slip velocity discrepancy defined as the difference between the angular slip velocity of a migrating particle and the angular slip velocity at its equilibrium position is positive below the position of equilibrium and negative above it. This discrepancy is the quantity that changes sign above and below the lower equilibrium position for neutrally buoyant particles, and also above and below the lower equilibrium position for heavy particles. The existence and properties of unstable positions of equilibrium due to newly identified turning-point transitions and those near the centreline are discussed. The long particle model of Choi and Joseph (2001) that gives rise to an explicit formula for the particle velocity and the velocity profile across the channel through the centreline of the particle is modified to include the effect of the rotation of the particle. In view of the simplicity of the model, the explicit formula for Up and the velocity profile are in surprisingly good agreement with simulation values. The value of the Poiseuille flow velocity at the point at the particle's centre when the particle is absent is always larger than the particle velocity; the slip velocity is positive at steady flow.

    Description: This paper outlines a dating program designed to test the reproducibility of radiocarbon dates on different materials of Late-Glacial age (plant macrofossils, fossil beetle remains, and the “humic” and “humin” chemical fractions of limnic sediments) using a combination of radiometric (beta counting) and accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) techniques. The results have implications for the design of sampling strategies and for the development of improved dating protocols, both of which are important if a high-precision 14C chronology for the Late-Glacial is to be achieved.

    Description: In this short article, we summarize some milestones in the 50-yr-long development of natural 14C measurement. In the light of this appraisal we presume to hazard some personal opinions and forecasts as to where best opportunities might lie for future gains from the continued investment in applied 14C science. The technique and the journal are one and the same in this regard.

    Description: For the majority of dating laboratories and their respective user communities, the journal Radiocarbon is no longer regarded as the medium for primary publication of radiocarbon measurements. In compliance with editorial policy, the emphasis has long since moved towards the publication of research papers on technological enhancements and applications of 14C as well as other cosmogenic isotopes and this has left a requirement for an alternative medium for the publication of date lists per se. In the late 1980s, an International Radiocarbon Data Base was proposed by Renee Kra (then the managing editor) but limitations in computer and communications technologies together with the inevitable financial implications meant that this timely concept could not be taken to completion. In the last year, we have taken advantage of the development of the worldwide web to compile a database of 14C age measurements of a Scottish archaeological nature which can be found at the web address http://www.historic-scotland.gov.uk/.
