The triggering of wave-breaking in a three-dimensional laser plasma wake (bubble) is investigated. The Coulomb potential from a nanowire is used to disturb the wake field to initialize the wave-breaking. The electron acceleration becomes more stable and the laser power needed for self-trapping is lowered. Three-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations were performed. Electrons with a charge of about 100 pC can be accelerated stably to energy about 170 MeV with a laser energy of 460 mJ. The first step towards tailoring the electron beam properties such as the energy, energy spread, and charge is discussed. (C) 2007 American Institute of Physics.

I. Foehn winds of southern California.
An investigation of the hot, dry and dust laden winds
occurring in the late fall and early winter in the Los Angeles
Basin and attributed in the past to the influences of the desert
regions to the north revealed that these currents were of a
foehn nature. Their properties were found to be entirely due
to dynamical heating produced in the descent from the high level
areas in the interior to the lower Los Angeles Basin. Any dust
associated with the phenomenon was found to be acquired from the
Los Angeles area rather than transported from the desert. It was
found that the frequency of occurrence of a mild type foehn of this
nature during this season was sufficient to warrant its classification
as a winter monsoon. This results from the topography of
the Los Angeles region which allows an easy entrance to the air
from the interior by virtue of the low level mountain passes north
of the area. This monsoon provides the mild winter climate of
southern California since temperatures associated with the foehn
currents are far higher than those experienced when maritime air
from the adjacent Pacific Ocean occupies the region.
II. Foehn wind cyclo-genesis.
Intense anticyclones frequently build up over the high level
regions of the Great Basin and Columbia Plateau which lie between
the Sierra Nevada and Cascade Mountains to the west and the Rocky
Mountains to the east. The outflow from these anticyclones produce
extensive foehns east of the Rockies in the comparatively low
level areas of the middle west and the Canadian provinces of
Alberta and Saskatchewan. Normally at this season of the year very
cold polar continental air masses are present over this territory
and with the occurrence of these foehns marked discontinuity surfaces
arise between the warm foehn current, which is obliged to slide over
a colder mass, and the Pc air to the east. Cyclones are
easily produced from this phenomenon and take the form of unstable
waves which propagate along the discontinuity surface between the
two dissimilar masses. A continual series of such cyclones was
found to occur as long as the Great Basin anticyclone is maintained
with undiminished intensity.
III. Weather conditions associated with the Akron disaster.
This situation illustrates the speedy development and
propagation of young disturbances in the eastern United States
during the spring of the year under the influence of the conditionally
unstable tropical maritime air masses which characterise the
region. It also furnishes an excellent example of the superiority
of air mass and frontal methods of weather prediction for aircraft
operation over the older methods based upon pressure distribution.
IV. The Los Angeles storm of December 30, 1933 to January 1, 1934.
This discussion points out some of the fundamental interactions
occurring between air masses of the North Pacific Ocean in connection
with Pacific Coast storms and the value of topographic and
aerological considerations in predicting them. Estimates of rainfall
intensity and duration from analyses of this type may be made and
would prove very valuable in the Los Angeles area in connection with
flood control problems.

[ES]El objetivo de este proyecto es el diseño e implementación del modelo de la estación FMS 201 (alimentación de la base) y el diseño e implementación del control de la estación. Esta estación pertenece a la serie FMS 200 (sistema didáctico modular de ensamblaje flexible) distribuido por la empresa SMC. Se dispone uno en el laboratorio de investigación del departamento de Ingeniería de Sistemas y Automática de la Escuela Superior de Ingeniería de Bilbao (EHU/UPV). Para el desarrollo e implementación del modelo se usará la herramienta informática Automation Studio. Para el control del modelo se usará el PLC. Para el intercambio de información entre modelo y controlador se utilizará la comunicación OPC Para el control de la estación se usa un PLC S7-300 de la marca SIEMENS. Se finaliza el documento realizando las pruebas de validación del modelo desarrollado, ejecutándose el programa de control en el PLC y corriendo el modelo desarrollado en el PC.

O objetivo do presente estudo foi comparar a expressão de IL-1β, IL-4, IL-8, interferon-γ, atividade de elastase e a composição do perfil microbiano subgengival antes e depois do tratamento periodontal não cirúrgico em pacientes com doença peridontal crônica generalizada (PC) e agressiva generalizada (PA). Vinte pacientes com PC e quatorze com PA foram avaliados. Dados clínicos, fluido gengival e biofilme subgengival foram analisados na visita inicial (VI) e 3 meses (3M) após o tratamento periodontal não cirúrgico. Amostras de fluido gengival (FG) foram coletadas com tiras de papel e os níveis de: IL-1β, IL-4, IL-8 e INF-γ foram medidos, utilizando um tipo de imunoensaio multiplexado (Luminex). Atividade da elastase foi avaliada por um ensaio enzimático. Amostras de placa subgengival foram analisadas através do checkerboard DNA-DNA hybridization. Na avaliação de 3 meses após terapia periodontal foi encontrado melhora significativa para todos os parâmetros clínicos em ambos os grupos. Foram encontradas reduções significativas na atividade de elastase nos sítios rasos e profundos dos pacientes do grupo PA e nos sítios profundos do grupo PC, também foi achado um aumento significativo de INF-γ nos sítios rasos do grupo PA. Os dados microbiológicos, mostraram reduções significativas para os níveis dos membros do complexo vermelho (P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, T.denticola), e para as espécies E.nodatum e P.micra no grupo PC. No grupo PA, ocorreram reduções significativas no níveis de P. gingivalis, T. forsythia, Fusobacterium nucleatum ss polymorphum e Fusobacterium periodonticum. Quando as respostas clínica e imunológica 3M após terapia foram comparadas entre os grupos, apenas diferenças sutis foram observadas. Nenhuma diferença microbiológica foi encontrada entre os grupos após a terapia. Em conclusão, os achados suportam nossa hipótese de que as periodontites cronica e agressiva respondem de forma semelhante ao tratamento periodontal nao cirúrgico.
