Voyager 2, during its encounter with the Jupiter system, provided images that both complement and supplement in important ways the Voyager 1 images. While many changes have been observed in Jupiter's visual appearance, few, yet significant, changes have been detected in the principal atmospheric currents. Jupiter's ring system is strongly forward scattering at visual wavelengths and consists of a narrow annulus of highest particle density, within which is a broader region in which the density is lower. On Io, changes are observed in eruptive activity, plume structure, and surface albedo patterns. Europa's surface retains little or no record of intense meteorite bombardment, but does reveal a complex and, as yet, little-understood system of overlapping bright and dark linear features. Ganymede is found to have at least one unit of heavily cratered terrain on a surface that otherwise suggests widespread tectonism. Except for two large ringed basins, Callisto's entire surface is heavily cratered.  相似文献   

Interplay of rotational, relaxational, and shear dynamics in solid ⁴He     

Pratt EJ  Hunt B  Gadagkar V  Yamashita M  Graf MJ  Balatsky AV  Davis JC 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》2011,332(6031):821-824

Using a high-sensitivity torsional oscillator (TO) technique, we mapped the rotational and relaxational dynamics of solid helium-4 ((4)He) throughout the parameter range of the proposed supersolidity. We found evidence that the same microscopic excitations controlling the torsional oscillator motions are generated independently by thermal and mechanical stimulation. Moreover, a measure for the relaxation times of these excitations diverges smoothly without any indication for a critical temperature or critical velocity of a supersolid transition. Finally, we demonstrated that the combined temperature-velocity dependence of the TO response is indistinguishable from the combined temperature-strain dependence of the solid's shear modulus. This implies that the rotational responses of solid (4)He attributed to supersolidity are associated with generation of the same microscopic excitations as those produced by direct shear strain.  相似文献   

Induction of AIDS-like disease in macaque monkeys with T-cell tropic retrovirus STLV-III   总被引：74，自引：0，他引：74  

N L Letvin  M D Daniel  P K Sehgal  R C Desrosiers  R D Hunt  L M Waldron  J J MacKey  D K Schmidt  L V Chalifoux  N W King 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1985,230(4721):71-73

The T-cell tropic retrovirus of macaque monkeys STLV-III has morphologic, growth, and antigenic properties indicating that it is related to HTLV-III/LAV, the etiologic agent of the acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) in humans. Four of six rhesus monkeys died within 160 days of STLV-III inoculation with a wasting syndrome, opportunistic infections, a primary retroviral encephalitis, and immunologic abnormalities including a decrease in T4+ peripheral blood lymphocytes. These data show that an immunodeficiency syndrome can be produced experimentally in a nonhuman primate by an agent from the HTLV-III/LAV group of retroviruses. The STLV-III-macaque system will thus provide a useful model for the study of antiviral agents and vaccine development for human AIDS.  相似文献   

A region of the Herpesvirus saimiri genome required for oncogenicity   总被引：26，自引：0，他引：26  

R C Desrosiers  A Bakker  J Kamine  L A Falk  R D Hunt  N W King 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1985,228(4696):184-187

Herpesvirus saimiri naturally infects squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus) without producing signs of disease; infection of other New World primates, however, results in a rapidly progressing, malignant, T-cell lymphoma. Results described in this report identify a region of the viral genome that is required for oncogenicity in owl monkeys (Aotus trivirgatus); this region is not required for replication of the virus. This is believed to be the first such genomic region identified in a herpesvirus system.  相似文献

Interactions between mitochondrial lipid oxidation and oxymyoglobin oxidation and the effects of vitamin E     

Tang J  Faustman C  Hoagland TA  Mancini RA  Seyfert M  Hunt MC 《Journal of agricultural and food chemistry》2005,53(15):6073-6079

Off-flavor and discoloration of meat products result from lipid oxidation and myoglobin (Mb) oxidation, respectively, and these two processes appear to be interrelated. The objective of this study was to investigate their potential interaction in mitochondria and the effects of mitochondrial alpha-tocopherol concentrations on lipid oxidation and metmyoglobin (MetMb) formation in vitro. The addition of ascorbic acid and ferric chloride (AA-Fe(3+)) increased ovine and bovine mitochondrial lipid oxidation when compared with their controls (p < 0.05); MetMb formation also increased with increased lipid oxidation relative to controls (p < 0.05). Reactions containing Mb and mitochondria with greater alpha-tocopherol concentrations demonstrated less lipid oxidation and MetMb formation than mitochondria with lower alpha-tocopherol concentrations. Greater mitochondrial alpha-tocopherol concentration was also correlated with increased mitochondrial oxygen consumption in vitro and with a more pronounced effect at pH 7.2 than at pH 5.6. Relative to controls, succinate addition to bovine mitochondria resulted in increased concentrations of ubiquinol 10 and alpha-tocopherol and decreased lipid and Mb oxidation (p < 0.05). Mitochondrial lipid oxidation was closely related to MetMb formation; both processes were inhibited by alpha-tocopherol in a concentration-dependent manner.  相似文献   

Anthropogenic Vanadium-Chromium-Iron and Cerium-Lanthanum-Iron Particles in Settled Urban House Dust: CCSEM Identification and Analysis     

Powell  J. W. D.  Hunt  A.  Abraham  J. L. 《Water, air, and soil pollution》2002,135(1-4):207-217

There is continuing concern over the health threat posed by theinhalation of ambient, transition-metal-containing particulatematter. Here, we report on the collection of two types ofanthropogenic, airborne particles, composed of iron with vanadiumand chromium (FeVCr) and iron with the rare earth metals ceriumand lanthanum (FeCeLa), respectively. Bi-weekly deposition platesamples were collected on indoor window sills of residentiallocations in inner-city Syracuse, NY. Sampling was continuous ateach location for two months during the spring of 1999. Themetal-bearing particles were identified, analyzed, and sizedin situ on each deposition plate using computer controlledscanning electron microscopy (CCSEM). Approximately 17% of thoseanalyzed by CCSEM fell into the inhalable size fraction. Particle loading varied between locations and changed over time.This was probably a function of various factors affectingparticle deposition rates. Notwithstanding, the plate loadingsfor the FeVCr-bearing particles tended to peak during the middleof the sampling period, suggesting that a single source/processwas operating to produce the FeVCr particles. The large sizeattained by some of these particles (greater than 50 μm inaggregates) suggest that long range transport was probably notinvolved.  相似文献   

Current and historical inputs of mercury to high-latitude lakes in Canada and to Hudson Bay     

W. L. Lockhart  P. Wilkinson  B. N. Billeck  R. V. Hunt  R. Wagemann  G. J. Brunskill 《Water, air, and soil pollution》1995,80(1-4):603-610

Sediment cores collected from several lakes in northern Canada have been analyzed for mercury and several other chemical contaminants. Sites ranged from the Experimental Lakes Area of northwestern Ontario, north to Cornwallis Island, and west to the southern Yukon. Cores were sliced at sites of collection and individual slices were freeze dried and analyzed for Pb-210 and Cs-137 to estimate average time intervals of deposition. The earliest date estimated by Pb-210 was about 1850, and mercury concentrations in some lakes were clearly increasing before then, assuming no vertical movements of mercury within the sediments. Extrapolation of dates downward to deeper slices, assuming a constant sedimentation rate, indicated that in some lakes mercury inputs increased slowly even in the 1500's, more rapidly after 1750, and more rapidly yet over the current century. These increases are interpreted as increased fluxes of mercury to the lakes as a result of long-range transport of atmospheric mercury, since there are no local industrial sources of mercury. Slices taken near the bottom of a core are taken to estimate the geological component while elevations in excess of that in surface slices are taken to represent contamination from fallout. This partitioning suggests that sediments in the eastern Northwest Territories are dominated by pollution, while those from the western Northwest Territories are influenced more by their geological settings. Two cores from Hudson Bay suggest that mercury is increasing there too, but has not yet exceeded geological sources. Mercury shows little or no tendency to decline in the most recent slices; indicating that inputs of mercury remain at or near their historical maxima. Given relatively high and continuing inputs of mercury to northern lakes it seems likely that some portion of that mercury may find its way into the food chain, hence the long-term prospect is for increasing levels of mercury in northern fish.  相似文献
