The defect microstructures of Si arising from ion implantation and subsequent regrowth for a (111) substrate have been found to be dominated by microtwins. Figure 1(a) is a typical diffraction pattern of annealed ion-implanted (111) Si showing two groups of extra diffraction spots; one at positions (m, n integers), the other at adjacent positions between <000> and <220>. The object of the present paper is to show that these extra reflections are a direct consequence of the microtwins in the material.

This article illustrates the potential of placing audiology services in a family physician’s practice setting to increase referrals of geriatric and pediatric patients to audiologists. The primary focus of family practice physicians is the diagnosis/intervention of critical systemic disorders (e.g., cardiovascular disease, diabetes, cancer). Hence concurrent hearing/balance disorders are likely to be overshadowed in such patients. If audiologists get referrals from these physicians and have direct access to diagnose and manage concurrent hearing/balance problems in these patients, successful audiology practice patterns will emerge, and there will be increased visibility and profitability of audiological services. As a direct consequence, audiological services will move into the mainstream of healthcare delivery, and the profession of audiology will move further towards its goals of early detection and intervention for hearing and balance problems in geriatric and pediatric populations.

ABSTRACT In the experiments reported in this paper the hypothesis that the decrease in the pituitary I. C. S. H.-content, which occurs after administration of steroid sex hormones in gonadectomized animals, is counteracted by a reflex stimulation of the hypophysis initiated by the operation has been investigated. If treatment with a low dose of testosterone propionate (100 μg) was started immediately after castration, the resulting decrease in the pituitary I. C. S. H.-content became more marked if the reflex stimulation of the hypophysis had been prevented. If, however, two months were allowed to elapse before the beginning of treatment, the presence or absence of this reflex was no longer of importance for the effect of testosterone propionate on the pituitary I. C. S. H.-content. And yet, in this case too, the decrease in the pituitary I. C. S. H.-content by testosterone propionate was less than in intact animals (see preceding paper). Hence this decrease appears to be counteracted by two factors: one rapidly occurring and short lasting, resulting from a reflex elicited by gonadectomy; the other gradually increasing in potency and possibly a direct consequence of the continued absence of pituitary inhibiting sex steroids.

AbstractScanning-tunneling spectroscopy experiments have been performed on conjugated polymer films and have been compared to a three-dimensional numerical model for charge injection and transport. It is found that field enhancement near the tip apex leads to significant changes in the injected current, which can amount to more than an order of magnitude, and can even change the polarity of the dominant charge carrier. As a direct consequence, the single-particle band gap and band alignment of the organic material can be directly obtained from tip height-voltage (z-V) curves, provided that the tip has a sufficiently sharp apex.

The problem of constructing Q-optimal experimental designs for polynomial regression on the interval [–1, 1] is considered. It is shown that well-known Malyutov – Fedorov designs using D-optimal designs (so-called Legendre spectrum) are other than Q-optimal designs. This statement is a direct consequence of Shabados remark which disproved the Erdős hypothesis that the spectrum (support points) of saturated D-optimal designs for polynomial regression on a segment appeared to be support points of saturated Q-optimal designs. We present a saturated exact Q-optimal design for polynomial regression with s = 3 which proves the Shabados notion and then extend this statement to approximate designs. It is shown that when s = 3, 4 the Malyutov – Fedorov theorem on approximate Q-optimal design is also incorrect, though it still stands for s = 1, 2. The Malyutov – Fedorov designs with Legendre spectrum are considered from the standpoint of their proximity to Q-optimal designs. Case studies revealed that they are close enough for small degrees s of polynomial regression. A universal expression for Q-optimal distribution of the weights pi for support points xi for an arbitrary spectrum is derived. The expression is used to tabulate the distribution of weights for Malyutov – Fedorov designs at s = 3, ..., 6. The general character of the obtained expression is noted for Q-optimal weights with A-optimal weight distribution (Pukelsheim distribution) for the same problem statement. In conclusion a brief recommendation on the numerical construction of Q-optimal designs is given. It is noted that in this case in addition to conventional numerical methods some software systems of symbolic computations using methods of resultants and elimination theory can be successfully applied. The examples of Q-optimal designs considered in the paper are constructed using precisely these methods.
