description: This report presents in summary work done in the period from
1959 to 1963 at the Hypersonic Research Project, Graduate Aeronautical Laboratories California Institute of Technology, on some theoretical aspects of the dynamics of ionized gases. The objective of this work was
to set up a system of conservation equations when no magnetic field or complicated chemical effects are present. Emphasis is placed on the gross exchange processes among species at a point, rather than the
gradient transport mechanisms (e. g. , viscosity and heat conduction); in the past this point of view was often called "Gaseous Electronics". In subordinatipg the magnetic field and the chemistry to the dynamics
it has been possible to explain a gratifying number of commonplace physical phenomena from first principles and to demonstrate the intimate connection between gaseous electronics and aerodynamics.

The conservation equations needed for a neutral-ion-electron
mixture were derived with the aid of the elementary integral transport (Maxwell-Chapman) theory exactly as used for any ternary mixture. Departures made necessary because of the ionization include (a) the collisionless ("Vlasov") approximation, (b) a reformulation of the
Chapman-Enskog prosedure to include electric forces and (c) a convenient recourse to the inverse-fifth-power interparticle force law. Even so the resulting equations are merely a re-statement of the formidable problem
of plasma physics. "Inviscid" equations are therefore written as counterparts of the inviscid (ideal) equations of aerodynamics. To illustrate where mathematical difficulties first appear, practical problems are
solved with the aid of further approximations.

These problems, as well as the physical departures mentioned
above, are relegated to Appendices.

Delivering a high-throughput DNA test for Stella-derived self-fertility with knowledge of genetic background of chromosome 6 in sweet cherry

Self-pollination

description: Self-fertility is an important characteristic that refers to a flowering plant forming seeds via self-pollination. This characteristic is under control of the multi-allelic S locus on chromosome 6 of sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.). The Self-fertility derived from the cultivar 'Stella' is reported to be based on a 4-bp deletion in the DNA sequence in the irradiation-derived S4' allele, unlike in the original S4 allele. Self-fertility DNA tests were reported form the 4-bp deletion. A new high-throughput DNA test could be developed using the Kompetitive Allele-Specific PCR (KASP) platform. Even with an improved new DNA test, overuse of the S4' allele carries the concern of genetic diversity loss that could lead to a bottleneck effect in breeding programs. New tools and information on tracking genetic diversity of sweet cherry breeding individuals across their chromosomes are available in the form of SNP arrays and value-added SNP array datasets. The objectives of this project were (1) to deliver a high-throughput DNA test for self-fertility in sweet cherry by converting a simple PCR-based marker to a KASP-based SNP marker; and (2) to describe the genetic background of the S4' allele and linked alleles of interest on chromosome 6 in 'Stella'-descended cultivars to limit or avoid inbreeding, by comparing "haplotype mosaics" of ancestry and embedded QTL alleles among prospective breeding parents. The Pav-S4-KASP assay was developed successfully and this DNA test do not require PCR products length analysis and scoring steps. Therefore, the Pav-S4-KASP self-fertility DNA test is a 'three-in-one' method. The research on characterizing S4' genetic background was conducted with pedigree analysis and haplotype mosaics concept. Identifying prospective self-fertile parents with ancestral background might help breeders to prevent inbreeding. The selection Sel-4 is a suitable parent ideotype instead of 'Stella'. Self-fertile parent ideotypes and cultivar ideotypes might help to increase genetic variability and help breeders to minimize and prevent in breeding. Although the research focused on chromosome 6, the approach could be applied to all chromosomes and to any allele of interest.

description: Abstract

Children of today, they say, are the leaders of tomorrow. For a nation to have a better tomorrow, the rights of its future leaders must be keenly administered. To achieve this, government and non-governmental organizations such as U. N. O., A. U. and UNICEF held meetings to fine-tune the rights of children. This was finally developed to what is known as Child’s Right Act. Despite brainstorming during series of meetings held on the matter by these organizations, it was discovered that many salient rights of the children were not addressed in the Act. While some acts were not detailed, some have been abused by the parents which resulted to child immorality. Islam, on the other hand, has taken care of the rights of children from inception which has been embedded in the Glorious Qur’ān and traditions of Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W.). Adopting analytical method, this research work explains the Child’s Right according to Islamic jurisprudence and highlights the omissions observed in the Child’s Right Act. The paper affirms the divinity and infallibility of Islamic law and thereby recommend it.
Laser Doppler Velocity & Vorticity Measurements in Turbulent Shear Layers
Creators: name: Lang, Daniel B.
name: Dimotakis, Paul E.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1986

description: A Laser Doppler Velocimeter (LDV) system was developed to measure the instantaneous spanwise vorticity, - ω_z, in a turbulent shear layer. It was necessary to design and fabricate the LDV optics and processing electronics, as no commercially available LDV systems met the
specifications of measuring the velocity at four closely spaced points to the requisite accuracy. Measurements were also made of the instantaneous u, v, u', v' and - u'v'. The instantaneous vorticity was processed to obtain an estimate of its probability density function, from which the mean and rms values were estimated. It was also possible to separate the irrotational fraction of the flow (-ω_z = 0)
from the rotational (intermittent) fraction of the flow (-ω_z ≠ O). The development of the intermittency profiles, based on vorticity, as a function of the downstream distance from the splitter plate was studied. A notable feature is that the vorticity is found to have values opposite the mean sense of rotation, i.e., - ω_z(t) < 0, a
significant fraction of the time. Additionally, a detailed study was performed to evaluate the approximation of -∂v/∂x, in terms of various local temporal derivatives ∂v/u(y)∂t. The optimum choice for u(y) can
be found and is influenced by the relative local convection velocities
of the small and large scale structures.

A Study of Wakes Behind a Circular Cylinder at M = 5.7
Creators: name: McCarthy, J. F.
name: Kubota, T.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1963

description: The flow field behind a circular cylinder was
investigated experimentally at a nominal Mach number
of 5.7, over a range of Reynolds numbers from 4500
to 66,500, based on the cylinder diameter. Pitot
pressure, static pressure, and total temperature
were measured at various distances behind cylinders
of three different diameters in order to determine
the flow properties in the wake. To correlate data
at different Reynolds numbers and to discriminate
turbulent wakes from laminar wakes, a linearized
theory for the laminar far wake was developed, which
included the effects of axial pressure gradient. The
transition from laminar flow to turbulent flow was
also determined by computing diffusion coefficients
from the velocity profiles. The transition thus
determined was correlated with the results obtained
from mass-diffusion measurements and hot-wire
fluctuation measurements.

Measuring nitrogen trichloride in an indoor swimming pool with proton-transfer-reaction mass spectrometry

Mass Spectrometry

description: Nitrogen trichloride (NCl3) in indoor pool air can cause acute ocular, nasal, and respiratory discomfort. Long term effects of NCl3 exposure is still being studied, and bronchial hypersensitivity is suspected, which is of concern for elite swimmers and lifeguards. Most measurement methods use grab sampling and lab analysis that limits sample number and temporal analysis. Proton transfer reaction mass spectrometry (PTR-MS) is an in-situ measuring technique that employs soft chemical ionization of target compounds by a proton transfer reaction, the charged compounds are then measured using mass spectrometry. The PTR-MS was calibrated for VOCs, NCl3, and the other chloramines (NH2Cl and NHCl2) using gas standards, permeation tubes, and liquid volatilization and dynamic dilution with zero-air. Gas standard calibrations were used to compare the accuracy of the dynamic dilution system for VOCs, and the tests concluded that the dynamic dilution system was successful in calibrating the PTR-MS. Volatilized NCl3 was measured at the WSU Rec Center indoor pool PTR-MS for 13 days in September 2019. The PTR-MS sensitivity to NCl3 was 0.21 + 0.03 ncps ppbv-1. Due to the low sensitivity, a water vapor dependence was difficult to obtain. The proton affinity (PA) of NCl3 (721.5 kJ mol-1) is close enough to that of water vapor (697 kJ mol-1) that the protonated H+(NCl3) ion measured by the mass spectrometer is deprotonated by water vapor in the drift tube. Formaldehyde and H2S were used as model compounds due to the similar PA values. Using these compounds, a NCl3 sensitivity for pool humidity (~45%) was determined at 0.064 + 0.059 ncps ppbv-1. The average NCl3 concentration of the pool, 114 + 33 ppbv, was about 10 times higher than the next highest concentration of the compounds measured that came from acetaldehyde. From the diel variation of NCl3 it is shown that the concentration increases with the pool occupancy, reaching its lowest concentration before the pool opened in the morning; and the maximum concentration near the end of the pool operating hours when the occupancy is highest.

Optimization of fermentation temperature and inoculation timing for use of non-Saccharomyces yeasts to reduce ethanol production in red wines
Creators: name: Cook, Tara
Publisher: name: Washington State University
Year: 2020
Subjects: Wine and wine making--Microbiology

description: Non-Saccharomyces yeasts have been studied as a means to reduce final ethanol content in wine by metabolism of sugars in grape must prior to inoculation of S. cerevisiae. However, little work has been performed to optimize fermentation factors for non-Saccharomyces yeasts growth and metabolism. The aim of this work was to optimize fermentation temperatures and timing of S. cerevisiae inoculation for use of non-Saccharomyces strains Metschnikowia pulcherrima P01A016 and Meyerozyma guilliermondii P40D002 to reduce ethanol content in red wines. In 2018, temperature optimization was studied. Merlot grape must (120 kg) was distributed into temperature-controlled tanks and inoculated with either Mt. pulcherrima or My. guilliermondii prior to adding S. cerevisiae D254. While control tanks, inoculated with S. cerevisiae alone, were set 25°C, treatments were set to either 15°C or 17.5°C before adding S. cerevisiae on day 3 and temperature adjustment to 25°C. Once fermentations achieved dryness (≤ 2 g/L residual sugar), wines were bottled and stored for 6 months at 7°C prior to sensory analysis. In 2019, timing of inoculation was optimized using Merlot grapes from the same vineyard block as in 2018. Tanks with 85 kg of must were inoculated in triplicate with either S. cerevisiae or Mt. pulcherrima, which were then inoculated with S. cerevisiae on day 0, 1, or 3. Maximum temperatures of all tanks were set to 17.5°C until adjusted to 25°C on day 3. In 2018 fermentations, temperature optimization resulted in ethanol reductions of at least 0.2% in all treatments. Wines inoculated with Mt. pulcherrima at 17.5°C were reduced by 0.8% v/v, and panelists found this treatment to express lower sensory scores for hotness, bitterness, and ethanol flavor. However, optimization of inoculation timing in 2019 was inconclusive due to hindrance of non-Saccharomyces yeasts by reduced initial must temperatures as a result of harvest conditions. In this work, temperature was the most important factor affecting ethanol reductions with use of Mt. pulcherrima and My. guilliermondii. In agreement with previous work conducted using these strains, reducing final ethanol concentrations was achievable without quality loss.

(Figs 10 A–O)
Description. Body elongate, rather broad, convex; without clear microsculpture, appearing polished and shining, pubescent. Head moderately broad, eyes present, antennae 11 segmented with small groups of sensillae on antennomeres 10,11. Male protibiae flattened, with a dense mass of short setae. Pronotum broader than long, sides rounded in posterior third, slightly wider than the elytra, with a small tooth at the hind angle, lateral margins bordered. Elytra +/- quadrate, subtruncate apically, exposing +/- 4 abdominal segments. Scutellum triangular. Wings of usual ptiliid type. Proventrum very narrow in front of procoxae which are contiguous and open behind. Mesoventrum short, collar biconvex medially and barely sloping to side margins, hind margins straight laterad of mesocoxae, sloping anteriorly to margins, mesocoxae contiguous separated anteriorly by a narrow keel which does not reach the collar. Metaventrum hind margin straight, toothed mesad of coxae, metacoxae with rounded plates which stop short of the lateral margins, separated by approximately one third of the metaventral width. Pygidium barely bidentate, anterior border without setae. Male ventrite 7 with wide incision and pairs of strongly developed horn-like setae at sides. Spermatheca with poorly developed wide duct. Aedeagus with two blunt projections.
The new genus is named after the collector Petr Baňař; gender neuter. Type species: P. rotundata sp. n.
Separation from related species. Most closely related to Chirostirca with its single species gomyi (no male known) (Fig. 10 B) described by Johnson (1985) from Mauritius, and similar to that species in its shining and globose appearance, the shape of the meso- and mentaventra, the wide separation of the metacoxae, and the form of the pygidium, but differing in the possession of much shorter antennae, strongly rounded pronotal margins which are not sinuate before the hind angles, and are not pointed or rearwards projecting, the lack of strong sculpturation on the metaventrum and elytra, and the mentum which is longer and more tapering.
From Acrotrichis Petrotrichis may be distinguished by its more globular shape, the polished appearance of the pronotum and elytra both of which lack visible sculpturation and the form of the pronotal hind angles which barely extend rearwards and possess a small tooth.

Expansion Procedures and Similarity Laws for Transonic Flow Part I. Slender Bodies at Zero Incidence
Creators: name: Cole, J. D.
name: Messiter, A. F.
Publisher: name: California Institute of Technology
Year: 1956

description: The purpose of this report is to provide a detailed and comprehensive account of a transonic approximation as applied to flows past wings and bodies. It is mainly concerned with the derivation of approximate
equations, boundary conditions, etc., rather than with the more difficult problem of the solution of transonic flow problems. Thus the report contains for the most part a re-examination of the basic ideas, as presented for example, in Ref. 1. The essential new point of view
introduced here is to regard the approximate transonic equations as part of a systematic expansion procedure. Thus, it becomes possible, in principle, to compute the higher terms of this approximation or at least
to estimate errors.

In the next section the form of the expansion and the reasons for it are explained. In the succeeding sections the equations of motion, shock relations, and boundary conditions for the flow problem are presented
and then the expansion procedure is applied systematically.

The resulting system of equations for the first, second, and
higher approximations i s presented in Section 5. The main results of interest for practical applications concern similarity laws and the pressure coefficient on the surface of slender bodies and these appear in Section 6. The remaining section treats bodies of non-circular
cross-section.

Odynerus bidentatus Lepeletier, 1841: 623, ♀, ♂ — [Algeria] “Oran” (coll. Lepeletier,? destroyed).
Distribution. Northwest Africa, from Morocco to Tunisia (Gusenleitner 2013). Recorded from Libya (Tripolitania and Cyrenaica) by Giordani Soika (1953), these records could be attributable to E. bidentatus puniceus Blüthgen.
Notes. This taxon and its subspecies puniceus Blüthgen were considered of uncertain subgeneric position (van der Vecht & Fischer 1972), until Gusenleitner (1977) placed them in subgenus Pareuodynerus. However, this placement does not conform to the diagnostic characters of the subgenus provided by Gusenleitner himself (Gusenleitner 1997, 2013), as Pareuodynerus is defined by the following characters: dorsal propodeal carina forming a sharp lamellate tooth adjacent to metanotum, female with cephalic foveae placed in a modified area which is at least as wide as the ocellar triangle, and male with last segment of mid and hind tarsi black and at least slightly expanded. These characters are not observed in E. bidentatus, which instead shows the typical characters of the nominotypical subgenus: dorsal carina of propodeum absent and not toothed, female with cephalic foveae placed in a small depression narrower than the ocellar triangle, and male with all segments of tarsi yellow-orange and not expanded. Even the structure of the digitus further confirms this incongruence, as the digitus of E. bidentatus is subtriangular, with converging sides and a pointed apex (Fig. 14A); in the subgenus Pareuodynerus the digitus has subparallel sides and a largely rounded apex, which give it a subrectangular appearance, and is proportionally shorter (Figs 14K–N). Taking these aspects into consideration, we propose moving E. bidentatus to Euodynerus s. str.
