    Description: There is to date no comprehensive treatment of eye disease texts from ancient Mesopotamia, and no English translation of this material is available. This volume is the first complete edition and commentary on Mesopotamian medicine from Nineveh dealing with diseases of the eye. This ancient work, languishing in British Museum archives since the 19th century, is preserved on several large cuneiform manuscripts from the royal library of Ashurbanipal, from the 7th century BC. The longest surviving ancient work on diseased eyes, the text predates by several centuries corresponding Hippocratic treatises. The Nineveh series represents a systematic array of eye symptoms and therapies, also showing commonalities with Egyptian and Greco-Roman medicine. Since scholars of Near Eastern civilizations and ancient and general historians of medicine will need to be familiar with this material, the volume makes this aspect of Babylonian medicine fully accessible to both specialists and non-specialists, with all texts being fully translated into English.

    Description: Melammu volumes have broadened the horizons of studies of antiquity by encouraging the crossing of geographical and cultural boundaries between ancient civilizations of the Mediterranean and Near East. The present Melammu volume extends from Greece to India, with articles on Phrygia and Armenia, also viewing texts from ancient Israel, Egypt, and Mesopotamia. The globalization described in this volume extends over language barriers and literatures, showing how texts as well as goods can travel between societies and regions. This collection of papers offer new insights and perspectives into connections between the Mediterranean World, Mesopotamia, Anatolia, Persia and India.

    Description: This volume is the first English edition of the Nineveh Series on eye disease from the royal library of Ashurbanipal, 7th century BCE. It is the longest surviving ancient work on opthalmology, anticipating by centuries the Hippocratic treatise on the eye. The Nineveh series represents a systematic array of eye symptoms and therapies, also showing commonalities with Egyptian and Greco-Roman medicine.

    Notes: We demonstrate very high-efficiency green phosphorescence from a single-layer dendrimer organic light-emitting diode formed by spin-coating. A first generation fac-tris(2-phenylpyridine) iridium cored dendrimer doped into a wide-gap 4,4′-bis(N-carbazole) biphenyl host displays a peak external quantum efficiency of 8.1% (28 Cd/A) at a brightness of 3450 Cd/m2 and a current density of 13.1 mA/cm2. A peak power efficiency of 6.9 lm/W was measured at 1475 Cd/m2 and 5 mA/cm2. We attribute this exceptionally high quantum efficiency for a single-layer device to the excellent film forming properties and high photoluminescence quantum yield of the dendrimer blend and efficient injection of charge into the emissive layer. These results suggest that dendrimers are an effective method for producing efficient phosphorescent devices by spin-coating. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: For surfaces at high temperature the emitted spectrum of electromagnetic radiation is the most convenient probe of temperature, if the spectral emittance (emissivity) of the sample at that temperature is known. A bench top instrument has been developed that, when coupled to a Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrometer, allows for the measurements of emission, directional-hemispherical reflection, and directional-hemispherical transmission from materials at elevated temperatures. From these radiative property measurements, the temperature at the measurement point and the spectral emittance of the surface can both be obtained. The method has been applied to a variety of materials (i.e., metals, dielectrics, coal slags) with a variety of surface properties (i.e., partially transmitting and nontransmitting; specularly reflecting and diffusely reflecting) at temperatures up to 2226 K. The article describes the technique, presents the results for several materials, and compares results with those for other investigators.
