    Notes: Abstract Electrical resistivity measurements have been conducted as a possible means for obtaining precursory earthquake information. Before five great earthquakes (M〉7,h〈25 km) in China, the apparent resistivity ρ a showed systematic variations within a region 200 km from the epicenters. In particular, 9 stations in the Tangshan-Tianjin-Beijing region prior to the Tangshan earthquake (M=7.8,h=11 km, 27 July 1976) showed a consistent decrease of apparent resistivity around the epicenter, with a maximum resistivity change of 6% and a period of variation of 2–3 years. Simultaneous water table observations in this region showed a declining water table, and ground surface observations indicated a slight (5 mm) uplift in the epicenter region relative to its surroundings. In order to develop an explanation for the observed change of apparent resistivity associated with these great earthquakes, we have used Archie's Law to explore the effects of changes in rock porosity, water content and electrolyte resistivity on measured resistivity. Tentative conclusions of this study are as follows: (1) the apparent resistivity change is opposite to the effect expected from the simultaneous water table trend; (2) the dilatancy needed to give such resistivity variations (assuming Archie's Law holds) is much larger than that needed to explain the observed uplift (by 2–3 orders of magnitude); (3) salinity change in the pore electrolyte is a possible explanation for the variation in resistivity: an increase in the salinity would cause a proportional decrease in resistivity; the data needed to test this hypothesis, however, are lacking; and (4) the effect of changing geometry of rock pores or cracks due to pressure solution may provide an explanation for the decrease in apparent resistivity; it is different in nature from the effect of a volume change in response to stress although the geometry change is also closely related to the stress change.

    Notes: Abstract Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CL/P) is one of the most common birth defects affecting 1/1000 Caucasians. Genetic factors are thought to contribute to the development of this disorder. A significant association between two restriction fragment length polymorphisms, the TGFα TaqI 2.7-kb allele and the TGFα BamHI 40-kb allele, at the transforming growth factor alpha (TGFα) locus and the occurrence of clefting has previously been reported. A total of 98 Caucasian patients of Alsacian ancestry was recruited from our registry of congenital malformations. These patients had isolated CL/P but no other anomalies. In addition 57 patients with cleft palate, but without cleft lip, were studied. A control group comprised 99 unrelated healthy Caucasians of the same Alsacian ancestry. TaqI and BamHI identify two-allele polymorphisms. The TGFA Taq and BamHI alleles showed no significant association with the presence of clefting, the only exception being that the BamHI 10.0-kb allele was significantly more frequent in patients with bilateral CL/P.

    Notes: The microstructures and microwave dielectric properties of temperature compensated compositeceramics (1-x)(Na0.5La0.5)TiO3+xCeO2 doped with 1wt%CuO were investigated. Dense and mixedphase samples were produced in the range of 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.9. As x value increases the Qf increases nonlinearlywhile the dielectric constant decreases almost linearly. The compensated τf value is obtained in0.1(Na0.5La0.5)TiO3 + 0.9CeO2 + 1wt%CuO ceramic with the Qf and εr being 8240GHz and 32.0respectively

    Notes: Wide angle x-ray scattering and classical molecular-dynamics simulations were employed to study structural and dynamic properties of two low-molecular weight glass-forming liquids, propylene carbonate, and salol. We observe pronounced changes in the liquid structure as a function of temperature in a wide temperature range bracketing the glass transition temperature. The experimental and simulation results compare the x-ray scattering from the liquid slightly and far above the experimental glass transition temperature, Tgexp. The simulations largely reproduce the characteristic behavior of the experimental x-ray intensities, which is interpreted in terms of clusterlike heterogeneities forming in the liquid as Tgexp is approached. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Optimization has been made of the program SAPI for automatic solution of structures having pseudo-translational symmetry. This includes: (1) floating default cutoff of E's; (2) automatic and user-adjustable balance between the number of systematically strong reflections and that of the systematically weak ones; (3) R factors for reflection subsets corresponding to the 'strong' group and the 'weak' groups. Examples on solving structures with pseudo-translational symmetry are discussed in detail. They include known as well as unknown structures and centrosymmetric as well as non-centrosymmetric structures, all of which can be solved starting from a default run of SAPI.

    Notes: A minimum-function subroutine is included in the SAPI program. This enables the superposition of either two Patterson maps or a Patterson map with an E map. Both kinds of superposition can effectively combine Patterson and direct methods leading to results better than those from either of the two alone. Practical examples are given to elucidate the efficiency of such a combination.

    Notes: The effect of growth temperature on the optical properties of self-assembled In0.65Al0.35As/Al0.35Ga0.65As quantum dots is studied using photoluminescence and electroluminescence spectra. With the growth temperature increasing from 530 to 560 °C, the improvement of optical and structural quality has been observed. Furthermore, edge-emitting laser diodes with three stacked InAlAs quantum dot layers grown at different temperature are processed, respectively. For samples with quantum dots grown at 560 °C, the continuous wave operation is obtained up to 220 K, which is much higher than that of ones with InAlAs islands grown at 530 °C and that of the short-wavelength quantum-dot laser previously reported. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We employ classical Molecular Dynamics simulations to study the cooperative dynamics of two low molecular weight glass-formers, propylene carbonate and salol. The length scales of dynamic heterogeneities are estimated. After appropriate scaling both glass-formers display a similar temperature dependence of this length scale. Local structural properties like density, regularity, and potential energy are correlated with different local dynamical observables. We find that the dynamic heterogeneities are most strongly related to the local potential energy. To obtain an optimum correlation the local dynamics has to be characterized by the residence time. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
