Abstract The steady-state compressibility of water-saturated Experimental work webs was investigated under annlied mechanical nressures between 30 Pa and 42 kPa. The we'bs were made fro a mechanical pulp, and an unbleached and a bleached chemical pulp. For each of these pulps, the relationship between mechanical pressure and bulk could be described by a power-law relationship with an r2-value higher than 0.98.

We tabulate an extensive set of measurements of the complex permittivity (i.e., dielectric constant and conductivity) of brine saturated rocks in the frequency range 10–1300 MHz. Rather than listing the permittivity at each frequency, we present the parameters of a Cole‐Cole function used to fit the data for each rock sample. We choose the Cole‐Cole function for the following reason. The data sets from 271 rock samples were fitted to the commonly used functions in the literature, i.e., Cole‐Cole, Cole‐Davidson, and power law functions. We found that within experimental errors the fits to both the Cole‐Cole function and the power law represent the frequency dependence of the data better than the Cole‐Davidson function. Further, the Cole‐Cole function fits the data better at the high‐frequency end of our data. This result implies that five parameters of the Cole‐Cole function describe the frequency dependence of the complex permittivity of rock samples in the range 10–1300 MHz within experimental errors.

AbstractA Pareto distribution was used to model the magnitude data for short-period comets up to 1988. It was found using exponential probability plots that the brightness did not vary with period and that the cut-off point previously adopted can be supported statistically. Examination of the diameters of Trans-Neptunian bodies showed that a power law does not adequately fit the limited data available.

A differentially pumped environmental cell has been developed for use in the AEI EM7 million volt microscope. In the initial version the column of gas traversed by the beam was 5.5mm. This permited inclusion of a tilting hot stage in the cell for investigating high temperature gas-specimen reactions. In order to examine specimens in the wet state it was found that a pressure of approximately 400 torr of water saturated helium was needed around the specimen to prevent dehydration. Inelastic scattering by the water resulted in a sharp loss of image quality. Therefore a modified cell with an ‘airgap’ of only 1.5mm has been constructed. The shorter electron path through the gas permits examination of specimens at the necessary pressure of moist helium; the specimen can still be tilted about the side entry rod axis by ±7°C to obtain stereopairs.

The unconditioned GSR’s elicited by tones of 60, 70, 80, and 90 dB SPL were largest in the mouse in the ranges around 10,000 Hz. The growth of response magnitude with intensity followed a power law (10 .17 to 10 .22 , depending upon frequency) and suggested that the unconditioned GSR magnitude assessed overall subjective magnitude of tones to the mouse in an orderly fashion. It is suggested that hearing sensitivity as assessed by these means may be closely related to the spectral content of the mouse’s vocalization as well as to the number of critically sensitive single units in the mouse’s VIIIth nerve.

Abstract. When concentration tests are completed repeatedly, reaction time and error rate decrease considerably, but the underlying ability does not improve. In order to overcome this validity problem this study aimed to test if the practice effect between tests and within tests can be useful in determining whether persons have already completed this test. The power law of practice postulates that practice effects are greater in unpracticed than in practiced persons. Two experiments were carried out in which the participants completed the same tests at the beginning and at the end of two test sessions set about 3 days apart. In both experiments, the logistic regression could indeed classify persons according to previous practice through the practice effect between the tests at the beginning and at the end of the session, and, less well but still significantly, through the practice effect within the first test of the session. Further analyses showed that the practice effects correlated more highly with the initial performance than was to be expected for mathematical reasons; typically persons with long reaction times have larger practice effects. Thus, small practice effects alone do not allow one to conclude that a person has worked on the test before.
