Success in protein-free deposition of native nucleic acid molecules from solutions of selected ionic conditions prompted attempts for high resolution imaging of nucleic acid interactions with proteins, not attainable by conventional EM. Since the nucleic acid molecules can be visualized in the dark-field STEM mode without contrasting by heavy atoms, the established linearity between scattering cross-section and molecular weight can be applied to the determination of their molecular mass (M) linear density (M/L), mass distribution and radius of gyration (RG). Determination of these parameters promotes electron microscopic imaging of biological macromolecules by STEM to a quantitative analytical level. This technique is applied to study the mechanism of 16S rRNA folding during the assembly process of the 30S ribosomal subunit of E. coli. The sequential addition of protein S4 which binds to the 5'end of the 16S rRNA and S8 and S15 which bind to the central domain of the molecule leads to a corresponding increase of mass and increased coiling of the 16S rRNA in the core particles. This increased compactness is evident from the decrease in RG values from 114Å to 91Å (in “ribosomal” buffer consisting of 10 mM Hepes pH 7.6, 60 mM KCl, 2 m Mg(OAc)2, 1 mM DTT). The binding of S20, S17 and S7 which interact with the 5'domain, the central domain and the 3'domain, respectively, continues the trend of mass increase. However, the RG values of the core particles exhibit a reverse trend, an increase to 108Å. In addition, the binding of S7 leads to the formation of a globular mass cluster with a diameter of about 115Å and a mass of ∽300 kDa. The rest of the mass, about 330 kDa, remains loosely coiled giving the particle a “medusa-like” appearance. These results provide direct evidence that 16S RNA undergoes significant structural reorganization during the 30S subunit assembly and show that its interactions with the six primary binding proteins are not sufficient for 16S rRNA coiling into particles resembling the native 30S subunit, contrary to what has been reported in the literature.

A precise method for the determination of the increment of the  basal area using the PressIer bore. Refering to  previous research showing that the basal area of the corsica pine could be  characterized by an ellips, we present in this paper a precise method for the  determination of the increment of the basal area. In this method we determine  the direction of the maximum diameter, we measure this diameter and we take a  core in one of the points of tangency of the caliper with the measured tree.  The determination of the diameter perpendicular to the maximum diameter  finishes the work wich is to be done in the forest. From the classical  measurements effectuated on the core and from the measured diameters we can  then determine the form (V) and the excentricity (e). Substituting these two  parameters in the formula 2 or 2', we can also calculate the error of a  radius measured on the core with respect to the representative radius, This  error with them allow us to correct the measured value of the minimum or the  maximum radius and we will be able to do a precise determination of the  increment.

AbstractThe coordination chemistry of the unsymmetric, aliphatic, tetradentate tripodal ligand N[(CH2CH2NH2)(CH2CH2OH)(CH2CH2CH2OH)] H4-1 with iron chlorides was investigated. The disodium salt of the deprotonated ligand Na2(H2-1) reacts with FeCl3 to yield a yellow precipitate which upon recrystallization from DMSO/CH2Cl2 gives red crystals of the octanuclear iron(III) complex [{FeIIICl(H2-1)}4FeIII4(μ4-O)4Cl4] 2 ・ 4CH2Cl2 containing a central Fe4(μ4-O)4 cubane core. Crystals of 2 ・4DMF were obtained by slow oxidation of the green iron(II) complex obtained from ferrous chloride and Na2(H2-1) after recrystallization from DMF. The structure determination of 2 ・4CH2Cl2 also revealed the presence of the iron(III) oxo cubane core. The core is surrounded by four iron atoms each coordinated by η4-(H2-1)2- and Cl- ligands.

Thermal mapping has been implemented since the late eighties to establish the susceptibility of road networks to ice occurrence with measurements from a radiometer and some atmospheric parameters. They are usually done before dawn during wintertime when the road energy is dissipated. The objective of this study was to establish if an infrared camera could improve the determination of ice road susceptibility, to build a new winter risk index, to improve the measurements rate, and to analyze its consistency with seasons and infrastructures environment. Data analysis obtained from the conventional approved radiometer sensing technique and the infrared camera has shown great similarities. A comparison was made with promising perspectives. The measurement rate to analyse a given road network could be increased by a factor two.

AbstractIn the present manuscript we develop a method to determine all characteristic dimensions of CdSe seeded CdS nanorods solely via their extinction spectra without the need for electron microscopical investigations. In detail, the core diameter as well as the overall diameter and length and the molar extinction coefficient can all be derived from characteristic points in the absorption spectra. We carefully investigate in which size regime our assumptions are valid and give an estimation of the expected error, making it possible for the reader to decide whether this method is sufficiently accurate for their respective system. Our method displays a comfortable and fast route to analyze these nowadays often used nanorods.

Fuel Storage

Reaktor Daya Eksperimental (RDE) is a 10 MWth pebble-bed High Temperature Gas-cooled Reactor that is planned to be constructed by National Nuclear Energy Agency of Indonesia (BATAN) in Puspiptek complex, Tangerang Selatan. RDE utilizes low enriched UO2 fuel coated by TRISO layers and loaded into the core by means of multipass loading scheme. Determination of radionuclide characteristics of RDE spent fuel; such as activity, thermal power, neutron and photon release rates; are very important because those characteristics are crucial to be used as a base for evaluating the safety of spent fuel handling system and storage tank. This study is aimed to investigate the radionuclide characteristics of RDE spent fuel at the end of cycle and during the first 5 years cooling time in spent fuel storage. The method used to investigate the radionuclide characteristics is burnup calculation using ORIGEN2.1 code. In performing the ORIGEN2.1 calculation, one pebble fuel was assumed to be irradiated in the core for 5 cycles and then decayed for 5 years. At the end of the fifth cycle, it is obtained that the total activity, thermal power, neutron production, and photon release rates from all radionuclides inside one spent fuel are approximately 105.68 curies, 0.41 watts, 2.65 x 103 neutrons/second, and 1.79 x 104 photons/second, respectively. The results for the radionuclides characteristics during the first 5 years cooling time in the spent fuel storage show that the radioactivity characteristics from all radionuclides are rapidly decreasing at the first year and then slowly decreasing at the second until the fifth year of cooling time. The results obtained in this study can provide data for safety evaluation of fuel handling and spent fuel storage, such as the calculation of sourceterm, radiation dose rate, and the determination of radiation shielding.Keywords: RDE, spent fuel, radionuclide activity, thermal power, neutron production, photon releaserates KARAKTERISTIK RADIONUKLIDA DI DALAM BAHAN BAKAR RDE. Reaktor Daya Eksperimental (RDE) adalah reaktor tipe Reaktor Temperatur Tinggi Berpendingin Gas dengan daya termal 10MW yang akan dibangun oleh BadanTenagaNuklirNasional (BATAN) di kawasanPuspiptek, Tangerang Selatan. RDE menggunakan bahan bakar UO2 yang dilapisi dengan lapisan TRISO dan dimasukkan ke dalam teras RDE menurut skema multipass (5 siklus). Penentuan karakteristik radionuklida di dalam bahan bakar RDE; seperti aktivitas, daya termal, laju produksi neutron dan pelepasan foton; adalah sangat penting karena informasi karakteristik ini diperlukan sebagai dasar untuk melakukan evaluasi keselamatan system penanganan dan penyimpanan bahan bakar bekas. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis karakteristik radionuklida bahanbakar RDE setelah 5 siklus dan pada 5 tahun pertama pendinginan ditempat penyimpanan bahan bakar bekas. Metode yang digunakan dalam menghitung karakteristik radionuklida adalah menggunakan program ORIGEN2.1. Satu bola bahan bakar RDE diasumsikan diiradiasi selama 5 siklus dan kemudian meluruh selama 5 tahun. Pada akhir siklus, diperoleh hasil aktivitas total, daya termal, laju produksi neutron dan pelepasan foton dari seluruh radionuklida di dalam satu bola bahan bakar RDE sebesar 105,68 curies, 0,41 watts, 2,65 x 103 neutron/detik, dan 1,79 x 104 foton/detik. Hasil untuk karakteristik radionuklida selama 5 tahun penyimpanan menunjukkan bahwa karakteristik radioktivitas radionuklida menurun dengan cepat pada tahun pertama dan kemudian menurun lebih lambat pada tahun kedua hingga tahun kelima. Hasil perhitungan karakteristik radionuklida dari penelitian ini dapat digunakan sebagai basis untuk analisis keselamatan penanganan dan penyimpanan bahan bakarbekas RDE.Kata kunci:RDE, bahan bakar bekas, aktivitas radionuklida, daya termal, produksi neutron, laju foton

Energy Determination

Five electromagnetic cascades of energies 835, 820, 300, 160, and 85 GeV were measured in the emulsions of an emulsion–tungsten stack. For small angles the integral angular distributions of the electrons are shown to be functions of the product E0 × θ (GeV × rad), where E0 is the primary energy of the cascades and θ is the angle up to which electrons were accepted. This is analogous to the well-known fact that the integral radial distributions depend on E0 × R (GeV × r.l.) in the core of the cascade, where R is the radius of a circle inside which were electrons.
