Unlike simple biological rhythms, the rhythm of the oscine bird song is a learned time series of diverse sounds that change dynamically during vocal ontogeny. How to quantify rhythm development is one of the most important challenges in behavioural biology. Here, we propose a simple method, called ‘rhythm landscape’, to visualize and quantify how rhythm structure, which is measured as durational patterns of sounds and silences, emerges and changes over development. Applying this method to the development of Bengalese finch songs, we show that the rhythm structure begins with a broadband rhythm that develops into diverse rhythms largely through branching from precursors. Furthermore, an information-theoretic measure, the Jensen–Shannon divergence, was used to characterize the crystallization process of birdsong rhythm, which started with a high rate of rhythm change and progressed to a stage of slow refinement. This simple method provides a useful description of rhythm development, thereby helping to reveal key temporal constraints on complex biological rhythms.

Uridine inhibits the incorporation of thymine in Escherichia coli 15T− cells but the duration of this inhibition is dependent upon the initial concentration of uridine and its rate of degradation. Uridine is rapidly degraded to uracil and the completion of this degradation coincides with the release of the inhibitory effect. However, uridine, by preventing the phosphorolysis of thymidine, allows the continued incorporation of the intact molecule at the initial high rate for as long as the concentration of undegraded uridine remains above a certain level. In resuspended 15T− cells, this rate is the same, irrespective of the presence or absence of uridine. The results presented here provide a simple method of controlling DNA synthesis, as represented by thymine incorporation, without the addition of inhibitors or other manipulations of the cell cultures.

Abstract The need for a simple method of determining brittle points which would be adaptable to a large number of materials led the writers to develop the apparatus described below. There is presented here, for the first time, brittle point data on certain natural and synthetic rubber compositions. The study of the variation with temperature of the mechanical properties of elastomers is of immediate practical and theoretical interest. Recently Kistler attempted a correlation of temperature-strength data of polymers with their chemical structure. On the other hand, the increasing use of synthetic high polymers at low temperatures for insulation and mechanical purposes requires a more complete knowledge of their behavior under conditions of extreme cold. The determination of the brittle point offers a simple method for investigating the possible use of a new material at low temperatures. In 1928 Kohman and Peek described a method whereby a small strip of material at a known temperature was bent quickly through 90° by a hammer blow. They found that within rather wide limits the brittle temperature was independent of the sample dimensions and bending angle, but that a high rate of deformation was necessary for reproducible results. The brittle point was found to be definite and reproducible within ±2° C for the materials studied. Using this method, Kemp determined the brittle point range of crude and vulcanized rubber, balata, guttapercha, and paragutta.

Palladium single-crystal films have been prepared by Matthews in ultra-high vacuum by evaporation onto (001) NaCl substrates cleaved in-situ, and maintained at ∼ 350° C. Murr has also produced large-grained and single-crystal Pd films by high-rate evaporation onto (001) NaCl air-cleaved substrates at 350°C. In the present work, very large (∼ 3cm2), continuous single-crystal films of Pd have been prepared by flash evaporation onto air-cleaved (001) NaCl substrates at temperatures at or below 250°C. Evaporation rates estimated to be ≧ 2000 Å/sec, were obtained by effectively short-circuiting 1 mil tungsten evaporation boats in a self-regulating system which maintained an optimum load current of approximately 90 amperes; corresponding to a current density through the boat of ∼ 4 × 104 amperes/cm2.

Aposteriori deblurring of high resolution electron micrographs of weak phase objects can be performed by holographic filters [1,2] which are arranged in the Fourier domain of a light-optical reconstruction set-up. According to the diffraction efficiency and the lateral position of the grating structure, the filters permit adjustment of the amplitudes and phases of the spatial frequencies in the image which is obtained in the first diffraction order.In the case of bright field imaging with axial illumination, the Contrast Transfer Functions (CTF) are oscillating, but real. For different imageforming conditions and several signal-to-noise ratios an extensive set of Wiener-filters should be available. A simple method of producing such filters by only photographic and mechanical means will be described here.A transparent master grating with 6.25 lines/mm and 160 mm diameter was produced by a high precision computer plotter. It is photographed through a rotating mask, plotted by a standard plotter.
