    Notes: Abstract  We analyzed a functional homologue of the swallow gene from Drosophila pseudoobscura. The swallow gene of D. melanogaster plays an essential role in localizing bicoid mRNA in oocytes, and swallow mutant embryos show anterior pattern defects that result from the lack of localization of the bicoid morphogen. The pseudoobscura homologue rescues the function of swallow mutants when introduced into the genome of D. melanogaster, and its expression is similar to that of the melanogaster gene. The predicted pseudoobscura and melanogaster proteins are 49% identical and 69% conserved. The coiled-coil domain previously identified in the melanogaster swallow protein is strongly conserved in the pseudoobscura homologue, but the weak similarity of the melanogaster swallow protein to the RNP class of RNA-binding proteins is not conserved in the pseudoobscura homologue. These and other observations suggest a structural role for swallow in localizing bicoid mRNA, perhaps as part of the egg cytoskeleton.

    Notes: Abstract Reliable Broadcast is a mechanism by which a processor in a distributed system disseminates a value to all other processors in the presence of both communication and processor failures. Protocols to achieve Reliable Broadcast are at the heart of most fault-tolerant applications. We characterize the execution time of Reliable Broadcast protocols as a function of the communication model. This model includes familiar communication structures such as fully-connected point-to-point graphs, linear chains, rings, broadcast networks (such as Ethernet) and buses. We derive a parameterized protocol that implements Reliable Broadcast for any member within this class. We obtain lower bound results that show the optimality of our protocols. The lower bound results identify a time complexity gap between systems where processors may only fail to send messages, and systems where processors may fail both to send and to receive messages. The tradeoffs that our results reveal between performance, resiliency and network cost offer many new alternatives previously not considered in designing fault-tolerant systems.

    Notes: Abstract  Sinkhole collapse is one of the main limitations on the development of karst areas, especially where bedrock is covered by unconsolidated material. Studies of sinkhole formation have shown that sinkholes are likely to develop in cutter (enlarged joint) zones as a result of subterranean erosion by flowing groundwater. Because of the irregular distribution of pinnacles and cutters on the bedrock surface, uncertainties arise when "hit-or-miss" borehole drilling is used to locate potential collapse sites. A high-resolution geophysical technique capable of depicting the details of the bedrock surface is essential for guiding the drilling program. Dipole-dipole electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) was used to map the bedrock surface at a site in southern Indiana where limestone is covered by about 9 m of clayey soils. Forty-nine transects were conducted over an area of approximately 42,037 m2. The electrode spacing was 3 m. The length of the transects varied from 81 to 249 m. The tomographs were interpreted with the aid of soil borings. The repeatability of ERT was evaluated by comparing the rock surface elevations interpreted from pairs of transects where they crossed each other. The average difference was 2.4 m, with a maximum of 10 m. The discrepancy between interpreted bedrock-surface elevations for a transect intersection may be caused by variations in the subsurface geology normal to the transect. Averaging the elevation data interpreted from different transects improved the ERT results. A bedrock surface map was generated using only the averaged elevation data at the transect junctions. The accuracy of the map was further evaluated using data from four exploratory boreholes. The average difference between interpreted and actual bedrock surface-elevations was less than 0.4 m. The map shows two large troughs in the limestone surface: one coinciding with an existing sinkhole basin, while the other is in alignment with a small topographic valley. Because sinkholes were observed at the same elevation interval in similar valleys in the vicinity, the delineated trough may have implications for future land use at the site.

    Notes: Tunable infrared picosecond pulses in the 5 μ region have been used for time-resolved pump–probe measurements of the population relaxation lifetime (T1) of CO(v=1) stretching vibrations in a series of metal–carbonyl cluster compounds in room temperature chloroform solution. T1 was the same for symmetric (ν=2084 cm−1, 90±10 ps) and antisymmetric (2014 cm−1, 87±10 ps) modes of the dicarbonyl Rh(CO)2(C5H7O2); T1 was the same for the B1 (2092 cm−1 , 710±130 ps) and B2 (2036 cm−1, 750±90 ps) modes of Rh2(CO)4Cl2. Similarly long T1 times were found for Rh4(CO)12 (2075 cm−1, 610±65 ps) and Rh6(CO)16 (2077 cm−1, 700±100 ps). The molecule Co4(CO)12 has also been compared to the corresponding rhodium analog and it exhibits an initially fast relaxation of 47±5 ps followed by a slower 396±70 ps decay. The transient response of the more complex systems to the single frequency experiment is found to be sensitive to frequency and can exhibit bleaching, absorption, and a combination of these effects. Such behavior is attributed to overlap of the IR pulse with v=1 to v=2 and higher transitions in the M4(CO)12 (M=Rh or Co) and Rh6(CO)16 molecules. The long CO(v=1) T1 values for the metal cluster molecules suggest relaxation via multiquantum transfer of vibrational energy to adjacent M–C stretch and M–C–O bend vibrations; energy transfer to vibrational or electronic states of the central metal core seems unimportant in determining T1 for these systems.

    Notes: Excitation of the NH-stretch overtone transitions of HN3 to v1=5 and 6 resulted in predissociation to HN(X) and N2(X) with lifetimes of 80+60−30 and ≤3 ns, respectively. Following excitation of either overtone, the HN fragments were formed predominantly in the symmetric F1, F3 spin–rotation states, with less than 4% population in the antisymmetric F2 levels. Fragment Doppler profiles confirmed that most of the available energy (〉96%) went into translational motion.

    Notes: Multiphoton vibrational excitation of deuterated hydrazoic acid, DN3, by a CO2 laser (I=10 GW/cm2) leads to dissociation forming DN in both X 3Σ− (spin forbidden) and a 1Δ (spin allowed) electronic states. Under collisionless conditions, the nascent DN fragments were probed via laser induced fluorescence, to determine initial product state distributions. The DN(X 3Σ−) molecules are formed predominantly in the symmetric F1 and F3 spin–rotation states with little population (≤6%) in the antisymmetric F2 levels. There is no significant population (〈3%) in excited DN(3Σ−) vibrational levels. The distribution of rotational states is Boltzmann-like, characterized by a rotational "temperature'' of about 920 K for the F1, F3 states and 500 K for F2 levels. Doppler profiles showed a large kinetic energy release of about 10 100 cm−1 total in the triplet channel. The DN(1Δ) products are formed preferentially in the symmetric Δ(A'), e-labeled lambda doublet levels: Δ(A')/Δ(A‘)=1.44. The DN(1Δ) is formed with no vibrational excitation (〈2%); the rotational states are populated Boltzmann-like with a rotational "temperature'' of 425 K. Doppler profiles give a total kinetic energy of about 1500 cm−1 in this channel. These observations give information about the distribution of energy in the reactant, the location of the barriers to dissociation, and the geometry of the transition states. Alexander, Werner, and Dagdigian (accompanying article) show that the observed DN(3Σ−) spin- and DN(1Δ) Λ-doublet selectivities reflect the symmetry properties of a planar transition state and that the low degree of DN(3Σ−) rotational and vibrational excitation is also expected from the transition state geometry.

    Notes: Picosecond infrared pump–probe experiments determined the vibrational population lifetimes (T1) of the hydroxyl fundamental stretching mode OH(v=1) in 12 alcohols (R3COH) and 8 silanols (R3SiOH) in dilute room temperature CCl4 solutions. T1 for the silanols is in the range 185〈T1〈292 ps, while T1 for the alcohols is much less (T1〈80 ps). The deuterium-exchanged analogs (COD and SiOD) exhibit population relaxation times similar to protonated hydroxyls. An analysis of the vibrational energy levels corresponding to modes involving the four bonds nearest the hydroxyl groups of these molecules is used to qualitatively explain the trends of the observed T1 lifetimes for these systems. Solution T1 lifetimes are also compared to those previously measured for OH(v=1) on the surface of silica and in other condensed-phase, room temperature systems.

    Notes: The vibrational relaxation dynamics of CO chemisorbed on small Pt and Rh particles supported on SiO2 has been investigated by picosecond time-resolved infrared transient bleaching experiments. A vibrational T1 lifetime of ≈7 ps has been observed for several different samples, independent of polarization, pump intensity, and sample temperature from 100–400 K. A 1:3 isotopic dilution has no effect upon T1. This T1 lifetime is a factor of 10–50 times shorter than T1 reported for metal carbonyl cluster compounds in solution and on SiO2 supports. Two possible mechanisms are considered to account for the rapid T1 decay; redistribution of the energy throughout the broad CO vibrational band, and relaxation directly to electron–hole pairs in the metal particles.

    Notes: The A 3Π1←X 1Σ+ laser-induced fluorescence excitation spectrum of the NeIBr van der Waals complex is reported and analyzed to extract information regarding the structure and vibrational predissociation dynamics of the complex. While no definitive geometric information regarding NeIBr is obtained, our data indicate that a linear geometry is at least plausible. The vibrational predissociation lifetimes are a strong function of A state vibrational level and range from 2.6 to 23 ps. The variation in lifetime with vibrational level is consistent with the results of previous measurements on rare gas–halogen complexes, particularly NeBr2.
