肠道杆菌的扫描电镜观察

我们用扫描电镜观察肠道杆菌种(Enterobacteriaceae)中的四种细菌,大肠埃希氏杆菌(Escherichiacoli),普通变形杆菌(Proteus vulgaris),伤寒沙门氏菌(Salmonella typhi)和福氏志贺氏菌(Shigella Flexneri)。未处理的菌落标本,菌落表面都可形成一层厚薄不同的表膜(Surface film)。四种细菌菌落的表膜,形状不一,千姿百态。适当处理后的菌落标本,则可显示菌体的本来面目。四种细菌菌体在菌落表面的分布和排列,也是各不相同,千差万别。本文根据扫描电镜的观察,对四种不同菌落进行了讨论。     

Exponential convergence for one dimensional contact processes

The complete convergence theorem implies that starting from any initial distribution the one dimensional contact process converges to a limit ast. In this paper we give a necessary and sufficient condition on the initial distribution for the convergence to occur with exponential rapidity.This work was discussed while the authors were visiting the Nankai Mathematics Institute in Tianjin.Partially supported by the National Science Foundation, the Army Research Office through the Mathematical Sciences Institute at Cornell University, and a Guggenheim fellowship.Research supported by the National Science Foundation of China.     

Special relativistic gravitational theory

Based on special relativity, we introduce a way to develop a new field theory from (1) the relativistic property of the particle coupling coefficient with the field, and (2) the field due to a static point source. As an example, we discuss a theory of electromagnetic and gravitational fields. The results of this special relativistic gravitational theory for the redshift and the deflection of light are the same as those deduced from general relativity. The results of experiments on the planetary perihelion procession shift and on an additional short-range gravity are more favorable to the special relativistic gravitational theory than to general relativity. We put forward a new idea to test experimentally whether the equivalence principle of general relativity is correct.Plovdiv University Paissii Hilendarskii.Moscow Institute of Railway Transport Engineers.     

A study of a possible unified potential model

The various properties of quarkonium systems have been studies in the framework of a recently proposed potential model, which combines the asymptotic freedom at the largeQ ₂ and the multigluon effect at the lowerQ ₂ regions with the confinement at the large distance. Good agreements with experiments are found, including \(c\bar c\) and \(b\bar b\) energy levels, leptonic decay widths, and in particular the fine and hyperfine splittings. We also analyze the Lorentz structure of the confinement potential with reference to the charmonium and bottomium fine and hyperfine splittings. Our analyses conclude that almost pure scalar confinement is favored. The properties of \(t\bar t\) spectroscopies are studied over a wide range of \(M_{t\bar t}\) values (from 80 GeV to 200 GeV).     

Variational study of vacuum structure with fermions ind+1 dimensional Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory

The physical vacuum state and general expression for the Hamiltonian ofd+1 dimensional lattice gauge theory are given by incorporating the exact ground state of pure gauge theory and the variational fermion vacuum state. The applications toSU(2) andSU(3) gauge theories in 2+1 and 3+1 dimensions are demonstrated and the fermion condensates \(\left\langle {\bar \psi \psi } \right\rangle \) as functions of 1/g ² are calculated.     

Percolation and electrical resistivity in the YBa2Cu3O7−Ag composite system

We have measured the resistivity of the YBa₂Cu₃O₇–Ag composite system with Ag volume fraction,p _Ag ranging from 0–100%. The percolation behavior and the normal-state resistivity are studied. We find a three-dimensional threshold for the Ag matrix occurring atp _Ag 20% and a threshold for the superconducting matrix occurring at 1–p _Ag30%. The electrical resistivity is interpreted in terms of a resistivity model for granular YBa₂Cu₃O₇ proposed by Halbritter et al. [Z. Phys. B —Condensed Matter71, 411 (1988)]. Based on this model, we show that the resistivities between the YBa₂Cu₃O₇ grains and flaws in the grains are greatly diminished in the samples, indicating significantly improved grain growth behavior of the YBa₂Cu₃O₇ phase resulting from the addition of Ag. With the diminishing of the grain boundary resistivities, an intrinsic value for the temperature coefficient of resistivity, (1/gr)(d/dT), can be inferred, which is 3.3×10^–3/K at 300 K. This value is very close to that observed in the Cu–O₂ planes in single crystals and epitaxial films of YBa₂Cu₃O₇.     

Optimal intensity control of a multi-class queue

We study a mixed problem of optimal scheduling and input and output control of a single server queue with multi-classes of customers. The model extends the classical optimal scheduling problem by allowing the general point processes as the arrival and departure processes and the control of the arrival and departure intensities. The objective of our scheduling and control problem is to minimize the expected discounted inventory cost over an infinite horizon, and the problem is formulated as an intensity control. We find the well-knownc is the optimal solution to our problem.Supported in part by NSF under grant ECS-8658157, by ONR under contract N00014-84-K-0465, and by a grant from AT&T Bell Laboratories.The work was done while the author was a postdoctoral fellow in the Division of Applied Sciences, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts 02138.
