Microstructures of explosively consolidated rapidly solidified aluminum and Al-Li alloy powders

The microstructures and the characteristics of water-atomized, nitrogen gas-atomized Al powders and ultrasonic argon gas-atomized Al-Li alloy powder were investigated by means of metallography, SEM, Auger electron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques. Rapidly solidified powders were explosively consolidated into different sized cylinders under various explosive parameters. The explosively consolidated compacts have been tested and analysed for density microhardness, retention of rapidly solidified microstructures, interparticle bonding, fractography and lattice distortion. It is shown that the explosive consolidation technique is an effective method for compacting rapidly solidified powders. The characteristics of surface layers play a very important role in determining the effectiveness of the joints sintered, and the Al-Li alloy explosive compacts present an abnormal softening appearance compared to the original powder.

Vita, et fatti dell'invitissimo imperatore Carlo Qvinto, et historie universali del mondo, de' suoi tempi... opera vitilissima a prencipi, signori, & capitani, & qual si voglia persona che d'historie si diletta composta dal Sig. Alfonso Ulloa, con la Pace, & Capitolationi seguite, tra li due potentissimi Prencipi Di Francia, & Spagna : & Con Toaule Copiosissime : & In questa ultima qditione in molti moughi mccresciuta, & migliorata

Afonso de Ulloa, escritor espanhol, nasceu em Zamora na primeira metade do século XVl e morreu em Veneza, Itália, em 1580. Filho de Francisco de Ulloa, oficial que esteve na África com Carlos V, seguiu também a carreira das armas, estabelecendo-se depois em Veneza. Desempenhou várias missões diplomáticas, escreveu muitas obras e traduziu para o italiano, língua que conhecia tanto quanto a materna, autores espanhóis e portugueses. Quanto à obra Vita, et fatti dell' invitissimo imperatore Carlo Qvinto.. . sabe-se que foi pela primeira vez impressa em Veneza em 1560 por Vincenzo Valgrisio e que foi muitas vezes reeditada. Salvo pela época, a edição supra referenciada não oferece grande interesse artístico, mas há uma interessante gravura com a efígie de Carlos V.

Inter-stage line ratio of He- and Li-like Ti emissions for the electron temperature measurement

Under coronal conditions, the steady state rate-equations are used to calculate the inter-stage line ratios between Li-like Is(2)2p(P-2(3/2))-> 1s(2)2s -> ((2) S-1/2) and He-like 1s2p (P-1(1))-> 1s(2) (S-1(0)) transitions for Ti in the electronic temperature ranges from 0.1 keV to 20 keV. The results show that the. temperature sensitivities are higher at the electronic temperature less than 5000 eV and the temperature sensitivities will decrease with the increase of electronic temperature.

Enhanced broadband near-infrared luminescence in transparent silicate glass ceramics containing Yb3+ ions and Ni2+-doped Li Ga5 O8 nanocrystals

Spectral properties of Yb3+/Ni2+ codoped transparent silicate glass ceramics containing LiGa5O8 nanocrystals were investigated. The near-infrared emission intensity of Ni2+ was largely increased with Yb3+ codoping due to Yb3+-> Ni2+ energy transfer. The qualitative calculation of the energy transfer constant Cs-a and rate Ps-a showed that the Yb3+-> Ni2+ energy transfer was much greater than in the opposite direction. Yb3+/Ni2+ codoped glass ceramics with 0.75 mol % Yb2O3 exhibited a near-infrared emission with full width at half maximum of 290 nm and fluorescent lifetime of 920 mu s. The glass ceramics are promising for broadband optical amplification.

太行花属（Taihangia Yu et Li）种质资源的研究

本文报道了太行花属（Taihangia Yu et Li）的种群分布、生物学特性和离体培养的初步结果。 太行花种群由于环境和生物等方面的原因仅在太行山区有狭小分布。来源于不同地区种群的太行花其形态特征具有丰富的表型，在引种条件下更为显著。而酯酶同工酶和过氧化物酶同工酶分析进一步证实了其遗传的稳定性和同源性。 实验表明，太行花在北纬39°58'，最低温度-11℃的北京北京植物园，露地越冬正常。温度提高至40℃时生长发育受抑制而迟滞，以25℃最为适宜，增殖率最高。太行花对土壤的适应范围较广，在泥炭培养土上移殖的幼苗成活率达97.20%，主根须根发达，叶生长良好。不同强度光照处理12000Lux效果最好。 太行花生育期为230多天，生长积温为3763℃左右。物候期受环境条件和当年气候的影响，不同种群和个体之间有一定的差异。花的性别、花期和开花量等与纬度、海拔主要与温湿度相关。 太行花的茎尖、花芽、花梗、萼片、花瓣和叶子等外植体均能在MS附加不同种类和浓度植物激素的培养基中分化，其分化途径和分化效果因附加成分、外植体类别而异。在含有0.1mg/L IAA和0.5mg/L 6-BA的培养基中，不但能启动花芽正常生长、开花、形成合子胚，而且也能诱导花芽、花梗、茎尖产生花芽和营养芽。在芽的继代培养中，细胞分裂素能大量诱导芽的分化，最好的配比是0.5mg/L 6-BA、0.1mg/L ZJ;只含生长素时可以诱导生根或脱分化，其中生根最好的是0.5mg/L IAA;2.4-D单独使用时，能较好地使花芽、叶等脱分化，其最佳浓度为1.0mg/L。

Redescription of Balantidium polyvacuolum Li 1963 (Class: Litostomatea) inhabiting the intestines of Xenocyprinae fishes in Hubei, China

Redescription of Balantidium polyvacuolum Li 1963, collected from the hindgut of Xenocypris davidi and Xenocypris argentea, from Niushan Lake Fishery (30A degrees 19' N, 114A degrees 31' E) in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China in April and June 2007 is presented in this paper to complete Li's description at both light and scanning electronic microscopic levels. The unique body shape of B. polyvacuolum-highly arched dorsal side and flattened ventral surface-as well as its remarkable concave platelet present in the centroventral were well described and compared with other close Balantidium species. Besides, two types of vestibulum shape are observed in our present work, which may suggest the existence of two subspecies or genotype species of these balantidia.
