The Chaldaean Oracles and the metaphysics of the Sethian Platonizing treatises
Authors: Turner John D. 
Published: February 2009

ABSTRACT
Der Aufsatz untersucht die Natur und die inneren Beziehungen einiger triadischer Gefüge, wie sie in verschiedenen Quellen des späten 2. und frühen 3. Jahrhunderts n.Chr. begegnen. Hierzu zählen die Triaden Vater-Kraft-Nous in den Chaldäischen Orakeln, die Gestalt des „Triple-Powered One“ in den sethianischen, „platonisierenden“ Texten vor allem aus Nag Hammadi und schließlich die Triade Sein-Leben-Denken im Anonymen Parmenideskommentar. Besondere Aufmerksamkeit gilt hierbei den jeweils weiblichen Komponenten der genannten Triaden, namentlich den Figuren Barbelo in den sethianischen Texten und Hekate in den Chaldäischen Orakeln. Die Studie gelangt zu der Hypothese, daß das Konzept dynamischer Emanation im Verlauf des späten 2. und frühen 3. Jahrhunderts Eingang in die platonische Philosophie fand. Dies erfolgte teilweise wohl durch eine am Personhaften orientierte Aufnahme der dynamischen Theogonien chaldäischer und gnostischer Provenienz, deren triadische Gefüge gleichsam personifi zierte, eindeutig männliche oder weibliche Wesen sind.
Metaphysicizing the Aristotelian Categories. Two References to the Parmenides in Simplicius' Commentary on the Categories (Simplicius, In Categorias 4 [CAG 8, 75,6 Kalbfleisch] and In Categorias 8 [291,2 K.])

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG
Der Artikel geht der Frage nach, inwiefern die aristotelische Kategorienschrift im Neuplatonismus zur Deutung der ersten Prinzipien benutzt und dadurch selbst als Teil metaphysischer Überlegungen etabliert wurde. Dadurch stellt sich die Frage, ob eine Verbindung mit der Rezeption von Platos Parmenides besteht, der für die Deutung der höchsten Prinzipien grundlegend war. Dies wird exemplarisch an Simplicius und dessen Kategorienkommentar untersucht. In ihm geht Simplicius an zwei Stellen explizit auf Platos Parmenides ein. Beide Stellen werden untersucht. Es zeigt sich, daß Simplicius die Terminologie der Kategorien sehr wohl auf Gott, das Gute oder das Eine anwendet, auch wenn an der weit verbreiteten Ansicht, die Kategorien könnten sich nur auf sprachlich ausdrückbare, also wahrnehmbare Dinge beziehen, nicht gerüttelt wird. Hiervon ist jedoch die Position des Iamblich wiederum zu unterscheiden, der die Kategorien auch für den noetischen Bereich annehmen konnte. In eine ähnliche Richtung weist die zweite explizite Bezugnahme auf Platos Parmenides in Simplicius' Kategorienkommentar, die sich mit dem Ausschluß von Mehr-Weniger beschäftigt.
Canonization – a Non-Linear Process? Observing the Process of Canonization through the Christian (and Jewish) Papyri from Egypt
Authors: Ezra Daniel Stökl Ben 
Published: February 2009

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG
Eine quantitative Analyse der christlichen und jüdischen literarischen Papyri Ägyptens aus dem zweiten bis zum fünften Jahrhundert mit dem Ziel der Untersuchung der Ausbildung des alt- und neutestamentlichen Kanons bietet gegenüber herkömmlichen Untersuchungen von Zitaten und Anspielungen in der patristischen Literatur den Vorteil eines direkteren Zugriffs auf antike Vorlieben für bestimmte Bücher. Als Resultate sind festzuhalten: Wählt man Athanasius' Liste kanonischer Bücher, werden apokryphe Schriften im Verhältnis zu kanonischen Schriften im Laufe der Zeit immer weniger kopiert. Diese Entwicklung ist jedoch nicht linear. Im vierten Jahrhundert ist ein ansteigendes Interesse an apokryphen Büchern auszumachen (z.B. 1Enoch, Jannes und Jambres, Paulusakten), das eventuell mit der Vielfalt verschiedener christlicher Bewegungen in Ägypten (Melitianer, Arianer, Mönchtum) in Zusammenhang zu bringen ist. Die Vorwürfe verschiedener Kirchenväter, Häresie und Lektüre unkanonischer Schriften hingen zusammen, scheinen angesichts des papyrologischen Befundes nicht ganz aus der Luft gegriffen. Zumindest ist ein simultanes Ansteigen beider Phänomene auszumachen. Der Kanon, vor allem der des Alten Testaments, ist noch nicht abgeschlossen. Das Interesse an den deuterokanonischen Schriften des Alten Testaments nimmt eher zu. Der Hirt des Hermas ist bis zum vierten Jahrhundert ebenso beliebt wie zentrale kanonische Bücher.
Die Rolle der Juden für Tertullians Darstellung der christlichen Gottesverehrung im Apologeticum, speziell in Apologeticum 21
Authors: Georges Tobias 
Published: February 2009

ABSTRACT
In Tertullian's Apologeticum, the Jews play a major role within the chapters 16-21, and especially in chapter 21. A closer look at those chapters shows that Tertullian is referring to the Jews in a very functional way. They enable him to stand up for his Christian faith in God – in front of his pagan addressees. He proceeds in two steps.
In apol. 16-20, he makes use of the Jews to support the faith in the one God, the creator of the universe. The source of this faith are the Jews' scriptures. Their age and dignity testify the truth of this faith shared by the Christians and the Jews. The Jewish religion as „insignissima religio, certe licita“ (apol. 21,1) functions as a witness in front of the pagan addresses, and that's why Tertullian is very friendly with the Jews in this context.
In apol. 21, the climate changes. Tertullian exposes the Christian faith in Christ as God that separates the Christians from the Jews. At this point, the conflict is unavoidable. But still, by attacking the Jews, Tertullian addresses hin non-Christian audience, this time in a critical way. It's the roman vulgus that is as blind as the Jews in apol. 21 refer to the pagan addresses who shall be freed from their blindness.
Thus, it can be seen that Tertullian is delibaretely talking of the Jews in two different ways, each time with one intention: to convince his pagan audience of the truth of the Christian faith.
The Eusebian Alliance: the Case of Theodotus of Laodicea
Authors: DelCogliano Mark 
Published: February 2009

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG
Der Artikel untersucht am Beispiel der sog. Eusebianer um Euseb von Nikomedia die Hintergründe kirchlicher Allianzen im 4. Jahrhundert. Die jüngste Forschung hat darauf hingewiesen, daß der Zusammenhalt der Eusebianer weniger das Resultat einer Vielzahl gemeinsamer theologischer Grundüberzeugungen war als vielmehr dadurch zustande kam, daß man sich gegen die Angriffe gemeinsamer Gegner verteidigte und sich wechselseitig auf Fehler hinwies. Eine vergleichbar kleine Menge übereinstimmender theologischer Überzeugungen spielte demgegenüber nur eine nachgeordnete Rolle. Der vorliegende Beitrag greift diese Grundthese auf und führt sie weiter aus, indem er zwei Faktoren aufzeigt, die zur Formierung der eusebianischen Allianz beigetragen haben: den Einfluß lokalkirchlicher Traditionen und die Bedeutung persönlicher Freundschaften. So wird zum einen gezeigt, wie der Hintergrund und das Handeln der Bischöfe von Laodicea dazu führte, daß ihre Stadt in der ersten Hälfte des 4. Jahrhunderts eine entschieden eusebianische Haltung in trinitätstheologischen Debatten einnahm. Zum anderen wird die Freundschaft zwischen dem eusebianischen Bischof Theodotus von Laodicea und Euseb von Cäsarea untersucht und dabei aufgezeigt, inwiefern Freundschaft ein Faktor für die Formierung und das Handeln der eusebianischen Allianz darstellte.
What the Desert Fathers meant by “being saved”
Authors: Wortley John 
Published: February 2009

ZUSAMMENFASSUNG
Ein großer Teil der Apophthegmata Patrum beschäftigt sich mit der Frage: „Was muß ich tun, um gerettet zu werden?” Wenngleich in der Frage die Worte des Gefängsniswächters aus Apg 16,31 anklingen, wird deutlich, daß die Wüstenväter diese Worte nicht mit Bezug auf das ewige Heil verstehen. Die Mönche streben danach, der Verdammnis durch die Verfehlungen als Mönch zu entgehen, so daß sie fragen: „Wie kann ich der Berufung als Mönch treu bleiben?” oder „Wie kann ich ein guter Mönch sein?”. Die Antworten der Wüstenväter auf diese Fragen nach dem Heil der Mönche fallen verwirrend weit und vielfältig aus. Sie haben jedoch gemeinsam, daß sie vor allem die tätige Demut als Kriterium gelingenden mönchischen Lebens benennen, da Demut den Mönch nicht nur “auf dem rechten Weg” hält, sondern selbst der Königsweg ist, der den Mönch in der Welt zur Erlangung eines gewissen Ruhezustandes (ἀνάπἀuσıς) leitet.

Published: February 2009

Abstract
In the present study, an icosahedral single phase bulk quasicrystalline material based on Al62Cu25.5Fe12.5 has been synthesised by a spray forming route. Microstructural characterization showed an average grain size of 10 μm. The oversprayed fine powder showed the presence of β- and λ-phases, whereas, the deposit consited of the fully single phase bulk quasicrystalline material with compositional homogeneity. The hardness and fracture toughness measurements were carried out at different indentation loads of 50–500 g. The hardness values varied in the range 10.4–8.1 GPa and fracture toughness was seen to decrease with increasing load. The varionan of hardness with load, which is known as indentation size effect (ISE), has been established clearly. Fracture toughness value was constant in the load range from 200 to 500 g at 1.2 MPa m1/2. The cracking pattern after indentation at higher load has been observed to be intergranular as well as transgranular. The evolution of the single phase bulk quasicrystalline material has been discussed in light of the unique combination of atomization and deposition process elements in spray forming technique.
Development of an Al–Mn–Be–Cu alloy with improved quasicrystalline forming ability
Authors: Zupanic Franc , Boncina Tonica , Rozman Niko , Anzel Ivan , Grogger Werner , Gspan Christian , Hofer Ferdinand , Markoli Bostjan 
Published: February 2009

Abstract
An Al94Mn2Be2Cu2 cast alloy was developed displaying increased quasicrystalline formation ability at moderate cooling rates. The as-cast microstructure consisted of a mainly icosahedral phase in the Al-matrix. The microstructure remained stable during uniform heating to 580 °C and isothermal annealing at 400 °C. Most of the icosahedral phase was preserved even after 24 h annealing at 500 °C. For that reason, this alloy presents a promising basis for further development of cast Al-alloys containing quasicrystals.
Homometric point sets and inverse problems
Authors: Grimm Uwe , Baake Michael 
Published: February 2009

Abstract
The inverse problem of diffraction theory in essence amounts to the reconstruction of the atomic positions of a solid from its diffraction image. From a mathematical perspective, this is a notoriously difficult problem, even in the idealised situation of perfect diffraction from an infinite structure.
Here, the problem is analysed via the autocorrelation measure of the underlying point set, where two point sets are called homometric when they share the same autocorrelation. For the class of mathematical quasicrystals within a given cut and project scheme, the homometry problem becomes equivalent to Matheron´s covariogram problem, in the sense of determining the window from its covariogram. Although certain uniqueness results are known for convex windows, interesting examples of distinct homometric model sets already emerge in the plane.
The uncertainty level increases in the presence of diffuse scattering. Already in one dimension, a mixed spectrum can be compatible with structures of different entropy. We expand on this example by constructing a family of mixed systems with fixed diffraction image but varying entropy. We also outline how this generalises to higher dimension.
Electronic structures of Al-based transition metal compounds and effective valence of transition elements
Authors: Watanabe Kaoru , Ishii Yasushi 
Published: February 2009

Abstract
Electronic structures of Al-TM (transition metal) compounds with rather simple B2, L12 and A15 structures are studied. Focusing on the energy bands, which are not hybridized strongly with the TM-d bands, we estimate the number of electrons occupying the states below the gap induced by periodic potentials and hence obtain the average number of valence electrons per atom e/a. Although the values of e/a obtained for the different structures are scattered in spite of combination of the same chemical species, these values are obtained if one assumes similar negative values for effective valence of TM. Roles of the interference effect opening the gap in the nearly-free-electron bands are discussed.
Metallographic techniques for the characterization of quasicrystalline phases in aluminium alloys
Authors: Boncina Tonica , Markoli Bostjan , Anzel Ivan , Zupanic Franc 
Published: February 2009

Abstract
Several Al-alloys strengthened by quasicrystalline phases have been developed over the last few years showing the considerable potential for practical application. Therefore there is a strong need for developing new metallographic methods or adapting the traditional ones in order to identify and characterize quasicrystalline phases in a reliable, quick and economical way. This paper describes different techniques: the classical metallographic method, deep etching, particle extraction technique and cross-sectioning using focused ion beam (FIB), and discusses their advantages and disadvantages when identifying quasicrystalline particles. It was discovered that particle extraction techniques are very powerful methods for the identification of phases according to their morphology, and preparation of quality samples for X-ray diffraction (XRD). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analyses are also possible provided the extracted particles are thin enough.
Study of quasicrystals obtained from a structural model of icosahedral phases of type F AlPdMn/AlCuFe

Published: February 2009

Abstract
A recent structural model [1] for the F-type icosahedral phases i-AlPdMn and i-AlCuFe based on the KG cell decomposition [2] of the Mackay clusters has shown that they both enter in an unique model of general composition Al61.8(Pd Ι Cu)21.35(Mn Ι Fe)8.29(Al Ι Fe Ι Mn)4.28(Al Ι Cu)4.28 where (X Ι Y) means X or Y species. Three new alloys satisfying this composition rule, two ternaries Al66.08Cu21.35Mn12.57 and Al70.36Pd21.35Fe8.29 and one quaternary Al66.08Cu21.35Mn8.29Fe4.28 have been prepared by rapid quenching and annealing and studied by X-ray diffraction and electron microscopy. All three phases are quasicrystalline after quench: Al66.08Cu21.35Mn12.57 is decagonal, and the two others are F-icosahedral phases. After annealing, the quaternary alloy transforms into a decagonal phase. The present results are compared to those of previous studies in the litterature of samples with close compositions.
LEED analysis of the surface structure of decagonal Al–Co–Ni using its W-approximant as a model structure
Authors: Pussi Katariina , Diehl Renee D. 
Published: February 2009

Abstract
The analysis of low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) intensities from quasicrystal surfaces requires the use of periodic model structures that contain the same structure features as the quasicrystal. In this paper, we present the analysis of LEED data from 10-fold decagonal Al–Co–Ni using the W approximant structure as the model. A preference was found for an Al-rich termination of the surface, with very little relaxation of the surface planes relative to the bulk structure. This result is similar to the results of an ab inito calculation of a similar surface structure [1]. The results are compared from earlier analyses of the same data using different structure models [2].
Surface study of the (100) and (010) faces of the quasicrystalapproximant Al4(Cr, Fe)
Authors: Smerdon Joseph , Parle Joseph , McGrath Ronan , Bauer Birgitta , Gille Peter 
Published: February 2009

Abstract
Low-energy electron diffraction (LEED) and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) results are used to study the pseudo-6-fold nature of the (100) surface of the orthorhombic quasicrystal approximant Al4(Cr, Fe). LEED patterns are also presented from the pseudo-10-fold (010) surface of this material. In each case the results are compared with the known bulk structure of this complex metallic alloy.

Published: February 2009

Abstract
The results of room-temperature optical study of single-grain simple icosahedral ZnMgHo quasicrystals are presented. The dielectric function ε (ω) of the quasicrystals was measured by spectroscopic ellipsometry technique in the spectral range of 0.1–7 eV. The si-ZnMgHo optical response is a superposition of the free-electron Drude-type contribution and that of the interband transitions. The experimental ε(ω) spectra are well simulated within a framework of the ‘band structure hypothesis’. The deduced parameters of the si-ZnMgHo electron energy spectrum are close to their values determined previously in an analysis of the si-ZnMgHo photoemission data.
THERAPIE EINES METASTASIERENDEN INSELZELLTUMORS MIT STREPTOZOTOCIN
Authors: Nieschlag E. , Wombacher H. , Kroeger F. J. , Habighorst L.V. 
Published: February 2009

A patient with a metastazing functional islet cell tumour suffering from severe hypoglycaemia was treated with streptozotocin. Four intravenous injections of 1.5 g streptozotocin each were administered in 4 to 6 days intervals. After the 4th injection there were no further episodes of hypoglycaemia, parenteral glucose administration could be stopped and blood sugar and plasma insulin, showing concentrations of up to 405 μU/ml before treatment, reached normal levels. The tumours in the pancreas disappeared and the liver metastases decreased in size and number as judged by arteriography.
A hypothesis for the mechanism of action of streptozotocin is proposed. The glucose moiety is considered to facilitate a high affinity to the islet cells whereas the N-methyl-nitrosourea residue serves the active antitumour part of the molecule.
Phenotypes of Mutations in the 5′-UTR of a Limiting Transcription Factor in Aspergillus nidulans Can Be Accounted For by Translational Inhibition and Leaky Scanning
Authors: Oestreicher Nathalie , Scazzocchio Claudio 
Published: February 2009

Abstract
The uaY gene encodes the transcriptional activator of purine catabolism genes in Aspergillus nidulans. uaY12 results in strongly defective growth on purines as nitrogen sources and in strongly diminished transcription of UaY-regulated genes. This mutation introduces an ATG codon 64 bp upstream of the uaY ATG, generating a 68-codon open reading frame (uORFA), overlapping with the uaY ORF. uaY12 revertants fall into three categories:The majority eliminate the aberrant ATG. The growth and transcriptional phenotypes of these revertants are identical to those of the wild type.Two revertants create a stop codon in frame with the uaY12 aberrant ATG, shortening the length of the uORFA, thus uORFA no longer overlaps the uaY ORF. The latter are partial suppressors of the uaY12 mutation, while chain termination suppressors, in turn, suppress this novel phenotype.Two partial suppressors are unlinked to uaY. These two mutations result in a pleiotropic phenotype usually associated with ribosomal proteins.
We hypothesize that uORFA strongly diminishes translation of the uaY ORF and that revertants negate this effect by a number of different mechanisms. The first-AUG rule and the phenomena of translational inhibition and leaky scanning provide a coherent explanation of the results presented in this article.
The Differential Efficacy of Pemetrexed According to NSCLC Histology: A Review of Two Phase III Studies
Authors: Scagliotti Giorgio , Hanna Nasser , Fossella Frank , Sugarman Katherine , Blatter Johannes , Peterson Patrick , Simms Lorinda , Shepherd Frances A. 
Published: February 2009

Abstract

Background.
Recent studies of pemetrexed have identified a predictive role for non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) histology. We further reviewed the differential efficacy of pemetrexed according to histology in two large, phase III NSCLC trials.

Methods.
One study tested pemetrexed versus docetaxel in previously treated patients (n = 571) and the other tested cisplatin plus pemetrexed versus cisplatin plus gemcitabine in chemotherapy-naive patients (n = 1,725) with advanced NSCLC. Cox proportional hazard models were used to test for covariate-adjusted treatment-by-histology interactions (THIs) for overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). For each histologic subgroup, the Kaplan–Meier method was used to estimate unadjusted within-arm medians, and Cox models were used to estimate covariate-adjusted between-arm hazard ratios (HRs).

Results.
In both studies, treatment arms were well balanced for histology. THIs were statistically significant (p &lt; .005) for both OS and PFS. Nonsquamous patients treated with pemetrexed-based therapy experienced longer survival than the comparators (HR, 0.78 and 0.84, respectively), whereas squamous patients had shorter survival (HR, 1.56 and 1.23, respectively). Whereas the efficacy of pemetrexed regimens differed according to histology, it did not differ for docetaxel or for cisplatin plus gemcitabine. Pemetrexed was well tolerated across histologic groups.

Conclusions.
The consistency of these results across studies confirms the predictive effect of histology for pemetrexed and the survival advantage for pemetrexed in patients with nonsquamous histology. These analyses suggest pemetrexed should not be recommended for the treatment of squamous cell carcinoma, but, because of efficacy and safety advantages, pemetrexed may be preferable to other agents for treatment of patients with nonsquamous NSCLC.
