Shear Strength Measurements in LY-12 Aluminium Alloy During Shock Loading

Lateral stress of LY-12 alummium alloy under plate impact shock loading was measured. Based on the measured data, the Hugoniot relation and shear strength were obtained. The result has demonstrated that the shear strenath of the tested material increases remarkably with the increasing longitudinal stress. This means that the assumption of constant shear strength usually adopted in shock stress calculation is not suitable for the present material.

Evolution and propagation of density waves on galactic disk .1. General evolution equation of wavelet and discussion of its solution

This paper presents a general self-consistent theory of evolution and propagation of wavelets on the galactic disk. A simplified model for this theory, i. e. the thin transition-layer approximation is proposed.There are three types of solutions to the basic equation governing the evolution of wavelets on the disk: (ⅰ) normal propagating type; (ⅱ) swing type; (ⅲ) general evolving type. The results show that the first two types are applicable to a certain domain on the galactic disk and a certain region of the wave number of wavelets. The third is needed to join the other two types and to yield a coherent total picture of the wave motion. From the present theory, it can be seen that the well-known "swing theory" of the G-L sheet model holds only for a certain class of basic states of galaxies.

Coherent scattering of light by Bose-Einstein condensation in a tight confinement

We have observed strong scattering of a probe light by dilute Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) Rb-87 gas in a tight magnetic trap. The scattering light forms fringes at the image plane. It is found that we can infer the real size of the condensation and the number of the atoms by modelling the imaging system. We present a quantitative calculation of light scattering by the condensed atoms. The calculation shows that the experimental results agree well with the prediction of the generalized diffraction theory, and thus we can directly observe the phase transition of BEC in a tight trap.

人类活动干扰下草原温室气体地-气交换特征及碳平衡研究

放牧和开垦目前是内蒙古草原最主要的两种人类生产活动，采用静态箱一气象色谱法对这两种土地利用方式下草原主要温室气体(CH4、N20和C02)地-气交换通量进行了原位观测，同时结合草原生态系统碳循环特征对放牧生态系统碳素收支状况进行了初步探讨，首次对开垦前后内蒙古草原CH4吸收和NzO排放的季节、昼夜变化特征进行了分析研究，对不同牧压梯度下内蒙古草原碳的损失进行了估算。主要研究结果包括以下4个方面： 1．内蒙古草甸草原开垦是大气CH4的汇，开垦为农田后，土壤．植物系统吸收大气CH4的能力增强。测定期间，农田与邻近的天然草原CH4平均吸收通量为23.38和24.57 ugCm'2h．1;尽管农业活动改变了草原CH4地．气交换通量，但是通量的量级仍是由当地季节性变化的气候条件决定的，其CH4吸收通量具有强烈的季节变化规律，表现为“春秋季高，夏季低”的特点;耕作使得土壤-植物系统CH4吸收通量的季节变化趋于平缓。 2．内蒙古天然草甸草原是大气N20的源。测定期间的平均排放通量为1.922ugNm'2h．1，通量范围为-0.484~7.425 ugNm.2h．1;天然草原N20排放具有明显的昼夜变化规律和季节变化特征，排放通量出现两个高峰期，整个生长季表现为高(5月中旬)一低（5月下旬至7月中下旬）一高（7月下旬至8月中旬）一低（8月下旬至9月）的趋势;农垦增强了土壤．植物系统排放N2O的能力。观测期间平均排放通量为2.914 ugNm'2h-l，比天然草原高52%，排放通量的季节规律性减弱，整个生长季呈现波动性变化，通量变化与天然草原相比趋于平缓。 3．内蒙古冷蒿小禾草草原与天然草甸草原一样，起着CH4汇、NzO源的功 能。主要温室气体CH4、N2O和C02的地．气交换通量受水热因子控制，与温度之间存在显著相关关系，具有季节变化特征：时间尺度对于讨论不同放牧压力下甲烷通量具有重要意义，不同放牧率处理9年后，土壤吸收甲烷的能力在当地自然气候条件下没有显著变化;放牧对草原N20排放通量影响显著，依次是轻度放牧<围栏封育<中度放牧<重度放牧;放牧增大了C02排放通量，观测期间四种处理间C02通量差异显著，C02排放通量四种处理依次为：围栏封育<轻牧<重牧<中牧。 4．对内蒙古草原放牧条件下碳收支状况的研究表明，冷蒿-小禾草草原受自然条件和人为因素双重作用存在由碳库（积累碳）向碳源（释放碳）转化的可能性。

Gene mapping of a new coat mutation in mouse

Gene mapping of a mouse coat mutation has been investigated. First, 100 10-bp random primers were used to amplify DNA, but the mutation could not be located by this method because there were no correlation between the amplified products and coat phenotypes. Second, by using Idh1, Car2, Mup1, Pgb1, Hbb, Es10, Es1, Mod1, Gdc1, Ce2, Es3 as genetic markers, linkage test crosses (two-point test) consisting of intercrossing uncovered BALB/c mice (homozygotes) to CBA/N and C57BL/6 mice with normal hair and backcrossing the heterozygotes of the F1 to the uncovered BALB/c mice were made. It was soon evident that the mutation was linked to Es3 on chromosome 11. Furthermore, three-point test was made by using Es3 and D11Mit8 (a microsatellite DNA) as genetic markers. The result showed that the mutation was linked to Es3 with the percentage recombination of (7.89 +/- 2.19)%, and linked to D11Mit8 with the percentage recombination of (26.38 +/- 3.57)%. The percentage recombination between Es3 and D11Mit8 was (32.90 +/- 3.81)%. The mutation was named Uncovered, with the symbol Uncv. According to the recombinations, the loci order was D11Mit8-26.30 +/- 3.57- Uncv-7.89 +/- 2.19-Es3. From the location on the chromosome, it was concluded that the mutation was a new mutation which affected the skin and hair structure of mouse. The Uncv has entered MGD (Mouse Genome Database).

Electroless-plated gold films for sensitive surface plasmon resonance detection of white spot syndrome virus

The paper describes the rapid and label-free detection of the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) using a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) device based on gold films prepared by electroless plating. The plating condition for obtaining films suitable for SPR measurements was optimized. Gold nanoparticles adsorbed on glass slides were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Detection of the WSSV was performed through the binding between WSSV in solution and the anti-WSSV single chain variable fragment (scFv antibody) preimmobilized onto the sensor surface. Morphologies of the as-prepared gold films, gold films modified with self-assembled alkanethiol monolayers, and films covered with antibody were examined using an atomic force microscope (AFM). To demonstrate the viability of the method for real sample analysis, WSSV of different concentrations present in a shrimp hemolymph matrix was determined upon optimizing the surface density of the antibody molecules. The SPR device based on the electroless-plated gold films is capable of detecting concentration of WSSV as low as 2.5 ng/mL in 2% shrimp hemolymph, which is one to two orders of magnitude lower than the level measurable by enzyme-linked immunosorbant assays.
