Before entering the subject of magnetohydrodynamic dissipation we comment briefly on the question of thesupplyof kinetic energy to the interstellar gas. This topic has been considered in the 1953 Symposium by Schlüter and myself, and also by Oort. As had been pointed out already by Spitzer in Paris, 1949, the visible HII regions, owing to their excess pressure as compared with the HI regions and the dilute HII regions, must be assumed to expand with a velocity of the order of 10 or 20 km/sec. By this expansion part of the radiation energy of the star is converted into kinetic energy. It was estimated (p. 153 of the proceedings) that a typical HII region around a BO star feeds 1035ergs/sec to the instellar gas, and that the number of these regions is such, that each region has to provide kinetic energy on the average to 1036−1037g of interstellar material. Thus a value of 10−2−10−1erg g−1sec−1was found (which corresponds to 10−26−10−25erg cm−3sec−1, assuming 10−24g/cm3for the mean density of the interstellar material in the disk).

Abundances in interstellar clouds, as determined from interstellar absorption lines, are discussed first, including abundances in ‘abnormal’ (high-velocity) clouds. HII-region abundances are then discussed and compared to results from the interstellar clouds. The present status of an abundance gradient as determined from HII regions is given. Abundances in planetary nebulae are then given for various categories of nebulae, and compared to HII regions. Finally a short status report on abundances near the galactic center is given.

AbstractWe use the stellar census of OB associations in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) to predict the Hα luminosities of the host HII regions, based on results from stellar atmosphere models. These values are compared to the observed HII region luminosities, yielding an estimate for the mean fraction of H-ionising photons that escape the local nebulae in this sample. We formally estimate that, overall, 0–51% of the ionising radiation escapes the local HII regions and is available to ionise the warm, ionised medium in the LMC. We find both nebulae that appear to be density-bounded and ones that appear to be radiation-bounded.

This Collaborative Classroom Action Research aimed at enhancing students’ speaking skill through the application of Circle Game. It was conducted in one cycle consisting of two meetings. The subject was the seventh of C class of SMPN 2 Alas Barat consisting of 22 students. The types of data were qualitative (acquiring observation during the learning process) and quantitative (speaking tests). The results qualitatively showed that the implementation of Circle Game enhanced the students’ speaking skills. Such improvement could be seen from their enthusiasm, their interesting feeling in various materials presented by the teacher, their active involvement. In the quantitative findings, the result also showed a higher value of the mean score of the post-test (77.34) rather than the pre-test (75.75). In conclusion, the use of Circle Game can improve students’ speaking skill.

ABSTRACT In order to determine the effect of alterations in binding capacity of thyroxine binding globulin (TBG) on triiodothyronine (T3) metabolism, studies were conducted in 10 patients with idiopathically low (7 subjects) or elevated (3 subjects) TBG levels and 10 subjects given norethandrolone (7 male subjects) or oestrogen (3 female subjects). Measurements of serum thyroxine (T4) concentration, maximal T4 binding capacity, serum T3 concentration and per cent dialyzable T3 were conducted. Serum T3 was measured both by chemical and radioimmunoassay methods. In patients with idiopathically low TBG, the mean serum T4 concentration was low (2.4 μg/100 ml), the mean serum T3 level low (55 ng/100 ml), the mean per cent dialyzable T3 increased (0.52%), and the calculated free T3 concentration normal (186 pg/100 ml). In patients with idiopathically high TBG levels the mean T4 concentration was high (10.3 μg/100 ml), the mean T3 level slightly elevated (127 ng/100 ml), the% dialyzable T3 low (0.10%) and the calculated free T3 concentration low normal (123 pg/100 ml). The correlation coefficient between the per cent dialyzable T3 and maximal TBG binding capacity in the 20 subjects was 0.68, a value significant at the P < 0.01 level. Thus, alterations in binding capacity of TBG seem to influence T3 and T4 metabolism similarly; the inverse relationship between the % of dialyzable hormone and total hormone concentration tends to keep the absolue levels of free hormones stable.
