Judul: Analysis Catching Activity of Eel Elver on the Water of Cimandiri Estuary, Palabuhanratu Bay, Jawa Barat
Abstrak: Eels (Anguilla sp.) are potential export commodities. However, there is a decrease in the number of eel elvers. Eel farming is still difficult to do if it starts from the stage of eggs and larvae. So, fishermen catch eel elver at the river or sea. Then, the elvers have been raised in fishpond. The current research attempts to describe the catching activities of eel elvers, to describe the condition of eel elver resources, and to estimate the relationship between sea surface temperature (SST), chlorophyll-a and fishing ground of eels at Cimandiri’s estuaries, Palabuhanratu Bay. The Research conducted on January to April 2012. Data were collected by interviews and also downloaded SST and chlorofil-a concentration images on http://oceancolor.gsfc.nasa.gov and http://www.nodc.noaa.gov/. The results show that, fishermen use simple fishing gear and operating technique for catching eel elvers. The fishing gear have been used by fisherman are waring and anco. Fishermen sell eel elver’s catch to the aquaculture’s company. Moreover, there was a sharp decrease in the volume in the eel elver catches. It is because the eel elver resources condition is getting worse compared to the early period of fishing activities. In addition, the SST averages was still in the range value of adaptation for eel elvers. It is because there is a small number of temperature variety in tropical water (including Indonesian water). In addition, the average concentration of chlorophyll-a included high categories from 1998 to 2011. So that, the high concentration of chlorophyll-a is a good location for the growth of phytoplankton and other aquatic animals.

Judul: Health Status of Eel (Anguilla sp.) from Natural and Temporary Rearing.
Abstrak: Eel (Anguilla sp.) has been become a high economic valuable fisheries resources which has decreasing stock for the last two decade. The dependence of aquaculture from natural catching of juvenile, because of unknown breeding technique, derived this organism into over fishing for juvenile which is migrate to upstream or the adult which is migrate to deep sea to breed. Influence of pollution and or pathogen infection has been supported the decrease of stock in nature. The health status of this organism, therefore used to analysed population structure and the change of individual and population in order to make some strategy to keep this resources ever last and to develop the best aquaculture technique. The health status are information comprised organism condition linked with immunity of pathogen infection, interaction with other microorganism and influence of nature condition. This information would be useful to know the fitness of organism in their natural live or in artificial nature such as aquaculture. This research has been held to compare the eel health status from natural and temporary rearing during ten days of rearing in fish collector before use to aquaculture. This information would be useful to develop some standard health status of juvenile eel and to create the best temporary rearing method in order to keep the quality of juvenile. Sample were taken from two main rivers in Cilacap Residence (Donan River and Serayu River) where the eel use it as migration route. Sample also taken from bendung gerak Serayu, an artificial dam, which is obstructing the migration of eel. The result shows that although no significant different in condition factor, the temporary rearing has increasing reddish node in the head, body, fins and tail of eel. There are four parasite founded in this research that are Nematode (Procamallanus sp. and Anguillicola sp.) which are infected internal organ of eel and Platyhelminthes (Dactylogyrus sp. and Deropristis sp.) which are infected the gills. Identification of Anguillicola sp. is the first record from Indonesian waters. The bacteria founded in this research are Aeromonas hydrophylla, Pseudomonas luteola, Vibrio fluvialis, Aeromonas sobria and Aeromonas caviae. The highly prevalence of infection coming from genus Aeromonas and has been influenced the haematological condition and histopathology of eel. Decreasing of haematocrit level from 38.27 ± 0.63 in sample from bendung gerak Serayu to 37.54 ± 0.45 (%) and total erythrocyte from 2.47±0.18 to 2.36±0.11 (x106 cell/ml) after ten days temporary rearing in Kebasen shows that this group of bacteria has a very high potent causing anaemia in eel. In the other hand, increasing of total erythrocyte, decreasing of lymphocyte percentage and increasing of monocyte and neutrophil percentage for all observed sample indicated that eel had been developing innate immunity to face of inappropriate condition in temporary rearing. The pathogen disruption has also been detected from histopatologycal disorder such as hyperplasia of gills, necrosis and inflammation of heart and necrosis and lesion of muscle. Infestation of parasite with their hooks and or infiltration bacteria with their virulent factor could damage the cell of eel organ. This disruption shows that temporary rearing has been becoming

Judul: Transisi Fasa Materi Hadronik ke Materi Kuark pada Inti Bintang Neutron.
Abstrak: Bintang neutron terdiri dari beberapa lapisan yang disusun oleh materi nuklir yang berbeda dengan kerapatan yang semakin tinggi ketika mendekati pusat bintang. Inti luar bintang neutron disusun oleh materi hadronik (nukleon, lepton, dan hyperon), sedangkan inti dalam bintang neutron disusun oleh kuark-kuark bebas (up, down, strange) yang saling berinteraksi. Tujuan penelitian ini adalah mempelajari bagaimana transisi dari inti luar ke inti dalam bintang neutron dengan menggunakan pendekatan RMF (Relativistic Mean Field) untuk materi hadronik dan CIDDM (Confined Isospin Density Dependent Mass) untuk materi kuark. Tekanan transisi diperoleh ketika potensial kimia barion materi hadronik dan materi kuark bernilai sama. Nilai tekanan transisi dengan parameter SU6-TM1 sekitar 87 MeV/fm3 dan diperoleh massa maksimum bintang neutron yaitu 1.92M dengan jari-jari sekitar 8.62 km. Nilai tekanan transisi dengan parameter SU6-G2 sekitar 53 MeV/fm3 dan massa maksimum bintang neutron yaitu 1.88M dengan jari-jari sekitar 8.16 km. Jenis transisi fasa adalah orde satu ditandai dengan diskontinuitas dalam kerapatan energi (adanya mixed phase). Parameter-parameter pada model nuklir yang digunakan menyebabkan perbedaan kekakuan persamaan keadaan (EOS) dari materi hadronik dan materi kuark sehingga nilai tekanan transisi dari fasa hadronik ke fasa kuark juga berbeda.
