Linewidth Reduction through Indium Substitution in Calcium-Vanadium Garnets (1968)

On the garnets Y3−2xCa2xFe5−x−yVxInyO12, with x ≤ 1.5 and y ≤ 0.5, we have measured the polycrystalline linewidth ΔHpoly at X-band and room temperature and have determined from single crystals the first-order anisotropy constant, K1. Since the single-crystal linewidth of these materials is but a few oersteds and the polycrystalline samples had less than 1% porosity and second phase, the observed ΔHpoly is attributed to anisotropy broadening, according to Schlömann. The introduction of indium reduces both | K1 | and ΔHpoly, for example: x = 0.63y = 0TC = 280°C4πMs = 650 GΔHpoly = 98 Oex = 0.80y = 0.50TC = 155°C4πMs = 750 GΔHpoly = 8 Oe. That last value is the lowest yet reported in the range of T ≈ 23 TC.
How I treat plasma cell leukemia (2012)

Primary plasma cell leukemia (pPCL) is a rare and aggressive plasma cell proliferative disorder with a very poor prognosis and with distinct biologic, clinical, and laboratory features. Compared with multiple myeloma, pPCL presents more often with extramedullary involvement, anemia, thrombocytopenia, hypercalcemia, elevated serum β(2)-microglobulin and lactate dehydrogenase levels, as well as impaired renal function. Many of the genetic aberrations observed in newly diagnosed pPCL are typically found in advanced multiple myeloma. These cytogenetic abnormalities and mutations lead to increased proliferation, enhanced inhibition of apoptosis, escape from immune surveillance, and independence from the BM microenvironment, with changes in expression of adhesion molecules or chemokine receptors. The outcome of pPCL has improved with the introduction of autologous stem cell transplantation and combination approaches with novel agents, including bortezomib and immunomodulatory drugs, such as lenalidomide. In this review, we provide an overview of currently available therapeutic options with recommendations of how these treatment modalities can best be used to improve outcome for plasma cell leukemia patients.
Unifying Software, Product Configuration: A Research Roadmap. (2012)

For more than 30 years, knowledge-based product configuration systems have been successfully applied in many industrial domains. Correspondingly, a large number of advanced techniques and algorithms have been developed in academia and industry to support different aspects of configuration reasoning. While traditional research in the field focused on the configuration of physical artefacts, recognition of the business value of customizable software products led to the emergence of software product line engineering. Despite the significant overlap in research interests, the two fields mainly evolved in isolation. Only limited attempts were made at combining the approaches developed in the different fields. In this paper, we first aim to give an overview of commonalities and differences between software product line engineering and product configuration. We then identify opportunities for cross-fertilization between these fields and finally develop a research agenda to combine their respective techniques. Ultimately, this should lead to a unified configuration approach.
VSP and Cross Hole Tomographic Imaging for Fracture Characterization (1989)

For the past several years LBL has been carrying out experiments at various fractured rock sites to determine the fundamental nature of the propagation of seismic waves in fractured media.These experiments have been utilizing high frequency ( 1000 to 10000 Hz.) signals in a cross-hole configuration at scales of several tens of meters.Three component sources and receivers are used to map fracture density, and orientation.The goal of the experiments has been to relate the seismological parameters to the hydrological parameters, if possible, in order to provide a more accurate description of a starting model for hydrological characterization.The work is ultimately aimed at the characterization and monitoring of the Yucca Mountain site for the storage of nuclear waste.In addition to these controlled experiments multicomponent VSP work has been carried out at several sites to determine fracture characteristics.The results to date indicate that both P-wave and S-wave can be used to map the location of fractures.In addition, fractures that are open and conductive are much more visible to seismic waves than non-conductive fractures.The results of these tests indicate direct use in an unsaturated environment.
Orthogonal Chromatography: Chromatographic Cross-Fractionation of Polymers (1982)

Abstract Polymers are generally extremely multi-component materials. Performance of a product is often dictated by the individual concentrations of their wide variety of different molecules. We conventionally consider the importance of molecular weight distribution (i.e. concentration of each molecular weight present) and attempt to characterize it via one or two averages (a number (Mn) and/or a weight average (Mn)) for correlation with performance properties. However, most industrial polymers are copolymers or branched polymers or both. Even “simple” linear copolymers often contain molecules which differ from each other by at least three properties: molecular weight, composition and sequence length. [Sequence length here refers to the number of one type of repeating chemical unit in a row within a macromolecule before other types are encountered.] Three simultaneous property distributions are then present. Branched polymers contain the added complication of different branch lengths and/or “density of branching per molecule”. Despite the potential importance of all of these distributions, with the exception of molecular weight distribution, at most one average value can readily be measured to characterize each (e.g. average composition, average sequence length, average branch length). Also, as will be discussed later, molecular welght distribution measurements of such polymers are highly uncertain.
An Advanced Control System for Fine Coal Flotation. Sixth quarter, technical progress report, July 1-September 30, 1997 (1997)

Over the past thirty years, process control has spread from the chemical industry into the fields of mineral and coal processing. Today, process control computers, combined with improved instrumentation, are capable of effective control in many modem flotation circuits. Unfortunately, the classical methods used in most control strategies have severe limitations when used in froth flotation. For example, the nonlinear nature of the flotation process can cause single-input, single-output lines to battle each other in attempts to achieve a given objective. Other problems experienced in classical control schemes include noisy signals from sensors and the inability to measure certain process variables. For example, factors related to ore type or water chemistry, such as liberation, froth stability, and floatability, cannot be measured by conventional means. The purpose of this project is to demonstrate an advanced control system for fine coal flotation. The demonstration is being carried out at an existing coal preparation plant by a team consisting of Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (VPI&SU) as the prime contractor and J.A. Herbst and Associates as a subcontractor. The objectives of this work are: (1) to identify through sampling, analysis, and simulation those variables which can be manipulated to maintain grades, recoveries, and throughput rates at levels set by management; (2) to develop and implement a model-based computer control strategy that continuously adjusts those variables to maximize revenue subject to various metallurgical, economic, and environmental constraints; and (3) to employ a video-based optical analyzer for on-line analysis of ash content in fine coal slurries.
Intrinsic Selectivity of Notch 1 for Delta-like 4 Over Delta-like 1 (2013)

Notch signaling makes critical contributions to cell fate determination in all metazoan organisms, yet remarkably little is known about the binding affinity of the four mammalian Notch receptors for their three Delta-like and two Jagged family ligands. Here, we utilized signaling assays and biochemical studies of purified recombinant ligand and receptor molecules to investigate the differences in signaling behavior and intrinsic affinity between Notch1-Dll1 and Notch1-Dll4 complexes. Systematic deletion mutagenesis of the human Notch1 ectodomain revealed that epidermal growth factor (EGF) repeats 6-15 are sufficient to maintain signaling in a reporter assay at levels comparable with the full-length receptor, and identified important contributions from EGF repeats 8-10 in conveying an activating signal in response to either Dll1 or Dll4. Truncation studies of the Dll1 and Dll4 ectodomains showed that the MNNL-EGF3 region was both necessary and sufficient for full activation. Plate-based and cell binding assays revealed a specific, calcium-dependent interaction between cell-surface and recombinant Notch receptors and ligand molecules. Finally, direct measurement of the binding affinity of Notch1 EGF repeats 6-15 for Dll1 and Dll4 revealed that Dll4 binds with at least an order of magnitude higher affinity than Dll1. Together, these studies give new insights into the features of ligand recognition by Notch1, and highlight how intrinsic differences in the biochemical behavior of receptor-ligand complexes can influence receptor-mediated responses of developmental signaling pathways.
A Systems Approach to Minicomputer I/O (1899)

You can tell a lot about a guy by the way he draws a block diagram of a computer system. If he draws the central processor and memory as small boxes off in a corner, then proceeds to fill the page with an elaborate portrait of the input/output system, he is usually referred to as (among other things) an I/O type.
Pre-irradiation semi-intensive chemotherapy with carboplatin and cyclophosphamide in malignant glioma: a phase II study (2002)

We undertook a phase II trial in 17 patients with malignant glioma and large measurable disease to assess response rate and survival with pre-irradiation chemotherapy, using higher doses than standard, trying to improve the outcome. Patients characteristics were: male/female 10/7, age 49 (range 23-59), median Karnofsky index 90% (range 70-100), glioblastoma multiforme/anaplastic astrocytoma 14/3. Treatment consisted of 2 cycles of carboplatin 200 mg/m(2) days 1-3 (or AUC x 8, total dose) plus cyclophosphamide 1000 mg/m(2) days 1-3. One partial response (6.5%) and two stabilizations (13.5%) were observed after pre-irradiation chemotherapy. Twelve out of 15 patients (80%) progressed after chemotherapy. Median survival time was 7.6 months and the survival at 1 year was 33%. Main toxicity was hematologic in the first cycle: neutropenia grade 4 in 100%; thrombocytopenia grade 4 in 73% and grade 3 in 27%; anemia grade 3 in 7%; in the second cycle: neutropenia and thrombocytopenia grade 4 in 100% and anemia grade 3 in 50%). No toxic death was related to treatment. This regimen showed limited activity in malignant glioma with large residual disease after surgery or biopsy.
Synthesis and Crystal and Molecular Structure of Tris(dimethylphenylsilyl)antimony (1995)

Abstract Tris(dimethylphenylsilyl)antimony ( 1 ) was prepared in moderate yield from dimetallic “Na 3 Sb” (generated in situ) and chlorodimethylphenylsilane in tetrahydrofuran at reflux temperature. The product was identified by standard analytical and spectroscopic techniques, and the crystal structure was determined by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction (triclinic, space group P 1, Z = 2). The SbSi 3 skeleton is pyramidal (average Si‐Sb‐Si angle 100.2°, average Sb‐Si bond length 2.558 Å), and the Me 2 PhSi groups are in a staggered conformation.
Role of grafting in the emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate with poly(vinyl alcohol) as an emulsifier. I. Effect of the degree of blockiness on the kinetics and mechanism of grafting (2001)

Abstract The role of grafting in particle nucleation during the emulsion polymerization of vinyl acetate with partially hydrolyzed poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as an emulsifier and potassium persulfate as an initiator was investigated. The polymerizations were carried out in batch with a low solids (10%) recipe. An automated reaction calorimeter (Mettler RC1) was used for the direct monitoring of the kinetics of emulsion polymerizations with three medium molecular weight PVAs differing in their degrees of blockiness (Poval 217EE > 217E > 217). Smith–Ewart case 1 kinetics (average number of free radicals per particle < 0.5) were followed in all cases, and no constant rate in interval II was observed. Contrary to what was expected, a nonlinear relationship was observed between the rate of polymerization ( R p ) and the number of particles ( N p ). At R p max, N p (217E) > N p (217EE) > N p (217), and the final N p was independent of the degree of blockiness of PVA. The particle size distributions were broad (particle diameter = 20–100 nm) and bimodal. On the basis of these data, we concluded that particle nucleation was continuous and was accompanied by extensive limited aggregation during the particle growth stages. The evolution of the amounts of grafted PVA and poly(vinyl acetate) (PVAc) were determined in polymerizations employing the two PVAs differing the most in blockiness (Poval 217EE and 217). The grafted PVAc followed similar profiles, increasing with conversion, particularly near the end of the two reactions. The amounts of grafted PVAc were about the same in the final latexes (37–39%). In contrast, the grafting of PVA was nearly complete by the time monomer droplets had disappeared in each reaction (25% conversion). However, the extent of grafting differed significantly, with the blockier PVA having about one‐third the grafting of the more random PVA (∼10% vs ∼30%). In these low solids recipes, grafting appeared to be primarily a solution event, occurring predominantly in the aqueous phase and not at the particle/water interface, as was previously speculated. The PVAc grafts grew until the molecules became water‐insoluble and precipitated, forming polymer particles. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 39: 3633–3654, 2001

Optimal Position of the Intermediate Coils in a Magnetic Coupled Resonant Wireless Power Transfer System (2019)

Coaxial coil topology is used as the transfer medium in traditional MCR-WPT (Magnetic Coupled Resonant Wireless Power Transfer) systems to improve the transfer characteristics. The intermediate coils are added to extend the transmission distance, whose positions are critical. This paper focuses on the optimal intermediate coil positions for an MCR-WPT system with four coaxial planar circular spiral coils. By modeling the MCR-WPT system, the mathematical expression of the self-inductance and the mutual inductance are used to calculate the load power of the MCR-WPT system, which is composed of four planar circular spiral coaxial coils, and using MATLAB. The optimal distance ratio between the adjacent coils for maximizing the power of load is proposed. Furthermore, the experiments are implemented from the network analyzer and the experimental platform. In the platform, the load power is measured at the different intermediate coil positions, and the optimal position at which the load power is maximized is found. Both experimental results obtained by the network analyzer and the experimental platform have validated the theoretical and simulation results and provided the correctness of the suggested ratios.

Histogenetic Processes Leading to the Laminated Neocortex: Migration Is Only a Part of the Story (2007)

The principal events of neocortical histogenesis were anticipated by work published prior to the 20th century. These were neuronal proliferation and migration and the complex events of cortical pattern formation leading to a laminated architecture where each layer is dominated by a principal neuronal class. Work that has followed has extended the knowledge of the workings of the proliferative epithelium, cellular mechanisms of migration and events through which cells are winnowed and then differentiate once their postmigratory positions are established. Work yet ahead will emphasize mechanisms that coordinate the molecular events that integrate proliferation and cell class specification in relation to the final neocortical neural system map.

DNA Compaction by cationic surfactant in solution and at polystyrene particle solution interfaces: a dynamic light scattering study (2004)

The effect of cationic surfactant on the compaction of DNA both in bulk solution and on polystyrene particles has been studied by dynamic light scattering. DNA undergoes a transition from a semiflexible coil to a more compact globule in aqueous solution as a consequence of cationic surfactant binding. Thus the hydrodynamic radius of DNA decreases from 107 nm to about 50 nm in the presence of cationic surfactant. Such compaction is also observed on DNA coated polystyrene particles. In this case, the hydrodynamic layer thickness of DNA coated particles is reduced from 36 to 5 nm in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide.

Development of high frequency and wide bandwidth Johnson noise thermometry (2015)

We develop a high frequency, wide bandwidth radiometer operating at room temperature, which augments the traditional technique of Johnson noise thermometry for nanoscale thermal transport studies. Employing low noise amplifiers and an analog multiplier operating at 2 GHz, auto- and cross-correlated Johnson noise measurements are performed in the temperature range of 3 to 300 K, achieving a sensitivity of 5.5 mK (110 ppm) in 1 s of integration time. This setup allows us to measure the thermal conductance of a boron nitride encapsulated monolayer graphene device over a wide temperature range. Our data show a high power law (T ∼ 4) deviation from the Wiedemann-Franz law above T ∼ 100 K.
Giant Enhancement of Hydrogen Transport in Rutile<mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><mml:msub><mml:mi>TiO</mml:mi><mml:mn>2</mml:mn></mml:msub></mml:math>at Low Temperatures (2010)

Measurements of the O-H and O-D vibrational lifetimes show that the room-temperature hydrogen diffusion rate in rutile TiO2 can be enhanced by 9 orders of magnitude when stimulated by resonant infrared light. We find that the local oscillatory motion of the proton quickly couples to a wag-mode-assisted classical transfer process along the c channel with a jump rate of greater than 1 THz and a barrier height of 0.2 eV. This increase in proton transport rate at moderate temperatures provides new insight into hydrogen transport in solids, which could play a role in applications ranging from fuel cells to hydrogen production.
Basic Study on Photocurable Liquid Crystal / C8-BTBT Mixtures for High-Mobility Organic Semiconductors (2016)

Recently, organic semiconductors have been attracting extensive interests such as an active layer for thin film transistors. The electric conduction in organic semiconductor is governed by hopping conduction because of crystallographic directions with especially weak &pai;-electronic interactions. Therefore, the mobility is improved as the molecular orientation is improved. We have tried to obtain the uniform molecular orientation of photocurable mesogenic monomers and solidify the orientational structure by irradiation of UV light. Furthermore, we have examined the charge carrier transport properties of the solidified samples and researched the influence of the molecular orientation on the carrier transport. As a result, the textures observed at 55 and 30 oC before the photocure, show non-uniform structures. It is guessed that the compatibility of UCL-001 with C8-BTBT is low, and then, the mixture of UCL-001 and C8-BTBT were phase-separated. On the other hand, in the polymer concentration of 75 wt%, the isotropic phase structure can be solidified by photocuring at 100oC. In the charge carrier transport properties, the hole mobility of the solidified samples cannot be determined. However, from the viewpoint of the quantity of photocurrent, the sample photocured at 55oC shows the most quantity of photocurrent. It is confirmed that the charge carrier transport properties depend on the molecular orientation, and in order to obtain the high mobility, the uniform orientation is important.
