A 1 Case-PR/ }*Rciofft.;Is Report .A 1 case-PR/ }*rciofft.;is Report (a) This eruption site on Mauna Loa Volcano was the main source of the voluminous lavas that flowed two- thirds of the distance to the town of Hilo (20 km). In the interior of the lava fountains, the white-orange color indicates maximum temperatures of about 1120°C; deeper orange in both the fountains and flows reflects decreasing temperatures (<1100°C) at edges and the surface. (b) High winds swept the exposed ridges, and the filter cannister was changed in the shelter of a p^hoehoc (lava) ridge to protect the sample from gas contamination. (c) Because of the high temperatures and acid gases, special clothing and equipment was necessary to protect the eyes. nose, lungs, and skin. Safety features included military flight suits of nonflammable fabric, fuil-face respirators that are equipped with dual acidic gas filters (purple attachments), hard hats, heavy, thick-soled boots, and protective gloves. We used portable radios to keep in touch with the Hawaii Volcano Observatory, where the area's seismic activity was monitored continuously. (d) Spatter activity in the Pu'u O Vent during the January 1984 eruption of Kilauea Volcano. Magma visible in the circular conduit oscillated in a piston-like fashion; spatter was ejected to heights of 1 to 10 m. During this activity, we sampled gases continuously for 5 hours at the west edge. Cover photo: This aerial view of Kilauea Volcano was taken in April 1984 during overflights to collect gas samples from the plume. The bluish portion of the gas plume contained a far higher density of fine-grained scoria (ash). At the peak of activity, lava fountained at least 100 m above the 30-m-high cone. Note the ballistically ejected scoria bombs (small red spatter) that appear to be falling like rain beneath the main lava fountain; they ranged from 0.1 to 1 m in diameter. Streaks of color at the lower right of the vent indicate the paths of bombs as they avalanched down the cone flanks. The wide red-orange ribbon is the main lava channel, which fed flows that traveled from 5 to 10 km from the vent. Isotope •msstry Division O^ta*>orl983-Septe«)J5erl984 d LA—10366-PR DE85 016204 .

Barr This past year brought a transition in the leadership of INC Division. Division Leader Darleane C. Hoffman resigned her position to become Professor of Chemistry at the University of California at Berkeley, and I was appointed to succeed her as Division Leader on August 27, 1984. Darleane leaves her Los Alamos career with an im- pressive record. Beginning with her early work on the nuclear chemistry of the transuranium elements produced in nuclear explosions, she established the properties of a wide variety of new or little-known nuclides ranging from the light lanthanides to the heavy actinides. At the same time, she contributed steadily and importantly to a broad spectrum of programmatic ac- tivities, including radiochemical diagnostics of weapons tests, the nuclear rocket propulsion program, nuclear- power waste management, and the education and train- ing of Laboratory employees. The willing application of her versatile talents has brought her a number of impor- tant international committee appointments and honors. A recent one was the 1983 American Chemical Society Award for Nuclear Chemistry. As INC Division Leader, Darleane Hoffman brought an imaginative and inspiring leadership style to the Division's programs and day-to- Darleane C. Hoffman day operations. She leaves a strong and vigorous scien- Prof. Univ. California, Berkeley tific organization. I have great confidence in the abilities of our personnel and anticipate both an expanding role for INC Division in vital Laboratory programs and continued exciting contributions to the world of science.

  • Conformational Analysis of Molecular Chains Using Nano-Kinematics
    Conformational analysis of molecular chains using Nano-Kinematics y z Dinesh Mano cha Yunshan Zhu William Wright Computer Science Department UniversityofNorth Carolina Chap el Hill, NC 27599-317 5 fmano cha,zhu,[email protected] Fax: 919962-179 9 Abstract: We present algorithms for 3-D manipulation and conformational analysis of molecular chains, when b ond length, b ond angles and related dihedral angles remain xed. These algorithms are useful for lo cal deformations of linear molecules, exact ring closure in cyclic molecules and molecular emb edding for short chains. Other p ossible applications include structure prediction, protein folding, conformation energy analysis and 3D molecular matching and do cking. The algo- rithms are applicable to all serial molecular chains and make no asssumptions ab out their geometry. We make use of results on direct and inverse kinematics from rob otics and mechanics literature and show the corresp ondence b etween kinematics and conformational analysis of molecules. In particular, we p ose these problems algebraically and compute all the solutions making use of the structure of these equations and matrix computations. The algorithms have b een implemented and p erform well in practice. In particular, they take tens of milliseconds on currentworkstations for lo cal deformations and chain closures on molecular chains consisting of six or fewer rotatable dihedral angles.

  • Temperature Superconductivity
    SOLITON AND BISOLITON MODEL FOR PAIRING MECHANISM OF HIGH - TEMPERATURE SUPERCONDUCTIVITY Samnao Phatisena* Received: Nov 3, 2005; Revised: Jun 12, 2006; Accepted: Jun 19, 2006 Abstract Soliton is a nonlinear solitary wave moving without energy loss and without changing its form and velocity. It has particlelike properties. The extraordinary stability of solitons is due to the mutual compensation of two phenomena, dispersion and nonlinearity. Solitons can be paired in a singlet state called bisoliton due to the interaction with local chain deformation created by them. Bisolitons are Bose particles and when their concentration is higher or lower than some critical values they can move without resistance. The bisoliton model can be applied for a pairing mechanism in cuprate superconductors due to their layered structure and the relatively small density of charge carriers. Cooper pairs breaking is a result of a paramagnetic effect and the Landau diamagnetic effect. The influence of magnetic impurities and the Meissner effect on cuprate superconductor based on the concepts of the bisoliton model are discussed. Keywords: Soliton, bisoliton, pairing mechanism, cuprate superconductors, paramagnetic effect, diamagnetic effect, Meissner effect Introduction The fascinating nonlinear wave structures known is exactly compensated by the reverse phenomenon, as solitary waves or solitons have become a namely, nonlinear self-compression of the wave subject of deeply interested for physicists in packet, and therefore the soliton propagates recent years. A soliton is a wave packet in which without spreading out and it conservs its shape. the wave field is localized in a limited (generally Thus, soliton is a nonspreading, nonlinear wave propagating) spatial region and is absent outside packet in which the phases and amplitudes of this region.

Introduction: Flow-like deposits of impact melt fying impact melts. After a candidate melt is identified, are commonly observed on the Moon, typically around data from the LRO Camera (LROC) was used to iden- young fresh craters. These flows are thought to be mix- tify additional features associated with impact melt tures of clasts and melted material that are emplaced deposits, such as cooling cracks in ponds and tension during the late stages of impact crater formation [1]. cracks in veneers, confirming these features as impact Lunar impact melts have been primarily studied at op- melts. tical wavelengths, but complementary information can be obtained by observing impact melts at radar wave- lengths. Radar data is sensitive to surface and sub- surface roughness, and thus can highlight these rough surface features, even when they not easily seen in optical data due to burial or imperfect lighting condi- tions (Fig. 1). Impact melts have been identified in radar data on the lunar near side [2], but they have yet to be studied in depth on the lunar far side, given the lack of global radar data prior to the launch of NASA’s Mini-RF instrument on the Lunar Reconnaissance Or- biter (LRO) in 2009.

Novel materials have often pointed to new mechanisms: self-trapping in halides giving energy localization, the incoherent motion of small polarons in colossal magnetoresistance oxides, solitons in conducting polymers, magnetic polarons in magnetic semiconductors, the quantum motion of electrons in mesoscopic metals, the regimes of both coherent and incoherent quantum propagation of muons in solids, and so on. The issues of energy and charge transport are equally crucial in living matter, but are understood less well. How can the energy from light or chemical processes be moved around and used efficiently? The important paper by Austin et al (2003) in this special issue shows that new experimental tools, using the ultra short, tunable laser pulses from free electron lasers, open up the possibility of resolving outstanding problems in understanding the energy and charge processes which underpin life itself.

Thus, while cyclohexa- annulated myo- and chiro-inositols exhibit a head-to-head bilayer molecular assembly, consisting of dimeric or octameric columnar architectures, cyclopenta-annulated chiro-inositol shows no such aggregation of the hydrophilic and hydrophobic faces, rather preferring to pack in a manner akin to a hydrophilic inositol. The differences in the two packing modes can be attributed to the size of the hydrocarbon ring, fine-tuning the hydrophilic–hydrophobic balance in the annulated inositols. An analysis of the non-polar molecular surface area (a measure of the intermolecular hydrophobic van der Waals interactions) for all the annulated inositols under study further vindicates the conclusion. Introduction alicyclic ring, could serve as a handle to fine tune the hydrophilic–hydrophobic balance in the otherwise polar Cyclohexane-1,2,3,4,5,6-hexol, in all its nine stereoisomeric inositols.
