Reactive Nitrogen and its Correlation with O3 and CO Over the Pacific in Winter and Early Spring

Measurements of NO, NO(y), O3, and CO were made during NASA's Global Tropospheric Experiment/Pacific Exploratory Mission-West B (GTE/PEM-West B) carried out over the western Pacific in February and March 1994. NO(x) was calculated from NO using a photostationary state model ((NO(x)(sub mc)). Correlations between these species are presented, and some insights into the sources of NO(x) and NO(y) are described. The boundaries between the lower, middle, and upper troposphere have been defined at potential temperatures of 311 K and 328 K, which correspond to the geometric altitudes of about 5 and 9 km at 30degN. Enhancements in the mixing ratios of NO(y) and CO were observed in the lower and middle troposphere. A positive correlation was found between these two species suggesting that the high NO(y) values were due to anthropogenic emissions over the continental surface. On the other hand, O3 increased little with increase in CO. As a result, NO(y)/O3 ratios were higher in air more influenced by pollution. NO(y), values in 55 and 28% of the air masses sampled in the lower and middle troposphere, respectively, were higher than the clean free tropospheric NO(y)-O3 range when O3 values simultaneously observed were used. High (NOx)mc/NOy ratios between 0.15 and 0.3 were found in the boundary layer with relatively low mixing ratios of CO and NOy during the three flights. These air masses were transported from a higher altitude (approximately 5 km) and a higher latitude (approximately 50degN) within a few days. The peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN)/NO(y) ratios were generally high (approximately 0.4) in these air masses, and the thermal decomposition of PAN was a probable source of NO(x). In the middle troposphere the (NO(x))mc mixing ratio did not generally increase with NO(y) or CO, suggesting that the transport of air masses affected by anthropogenic emissions did not increase the NO(x) level significantly. In the upper troposphere, very minor effects from the continental surface sources were seen in the CO mixing ratio. By contrast, NO(y) values in 33% of the air masses were higher than those expected when stratospheric air intrusion is assumed to be a single source of NO(y) based on NO(y)-O3 correlation analyses. This result suggests significant free tropospheric NO(y) sources, namely exhaust from the aircraft and NO production by lightning activity. In fact, spikes in the (NO(x))(sub m)c mixing ratios were observed near the aircraft corridor south of Tokyo at an altitude of 10 km. These two free tropospheric NO(x) sources were considered to be important in determining the levels of the upper tropospheric NO(x) and NO(y) during PEM-West B.

Crystallographic Study of Product Phases of Carbothermic Reduction and Nitridation of Hafnium Dioxide

Details of the carbothermic reduction/nitridation to synthesize hafnium nitride (HfN) and hafnium carbide (HfC) are scarce in the literature. Therefore, this current study was carried out to evaluate two pathways for synthesizing these two refractory materials: direct nitridation and carbothermic reduction/nitridation. Two mixtures of hafnium dioxide and carbon with C/HfO 2 molar ratios of 2.15 and 3.1 were nitridized directly using flowing nitrogen gas at elevated temperatures (1300–1700 °C). The 3.1 C/HfO 2 molar ratio mixture was also carbothermically reduced under flowing argon gas to synthesize HfC, which was converted into HfN by introducing a nitridation step under both N 2(g ) and N 2(g) -10% H 2(g) . X-ray diffraction results showed the formation of HfN at 1300 and 1400 °C and HfC 1–y N y at ≥1400 °C under direct nitridation of samples using a C/HfO 2 molar ratio of 2.15. These phase analysis data together with lower lattice strain and greater crystallite sizes of HfC 1–y N y that formed at higher temperatures suggested that the HfC 1–y N y phase is preferred over HfN at those temperatures. Carbothermic reduction of 3.1 C/HfO 2 molar ratio samples under an inert atmosphere produced single-phased HfC with no significant levels of dissolved oxygen. In conclusion, carbothermic reduction nitridation made two phases of different carbon levels (HfC 1–y N y and HfC 1–y 'N y ', where y' < y), while direct nitridation produced a single HfC 1–y N y phase under both N 2 and N 2 -10% H 2 cover gas environments.

The dynamic contributions of the otolith organs to human ocular torsion

We measured human ocular torsion (OT) monocularly (using video) and binocularly (using search coils) while sinusoidally accelerating (0.7 g) five human subjects along an earth-horizontal axis at five frequencies (0.35, 0.4, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.0 Hz). The compensatory nature of OT was investigated by changing the relative orientation of the dynamic (linear acceleration) and static (gravitational) cues. Four subject orientations were investigated: (1) Y-upright-acceleration along the interaural (y) axis while upright; (2) Y-supine-acceleration along the y-axis while supine; (3) Z-RED-acceleration along the dorsoventral (z) axis with right ear down; (4) Z-supine-acceleration along the z-axis while supine. Linear acceleration in the Y-upright, Y-supine and Z-RED orientations elicited conjugate OT. The smaller response in the Z-supine orientation appeared disconjugate. The amplitude of the response decreased and the phase lag increased with increasing frequency for each orientation. This frequency dependence does not match the frequency response of the regular or irregular afferent otolith neurons; therefore the response dynamics cannot be explained by simple peripheral mechanisms. The Y-upright responses were larger than the Y-supine responses (P < 0.05). This difference indicates that OT must be more complicated than a simple low-pass filtered response to interaural shear force, since the dynamic shear force along the interaural axis was identical in these two orientations. The Y-supine responses were, in turn, larger than the Z-RED responses (P < 0.01). Interestingly, the vector sum of the Y-supine responses plus Z-RED responses was not significantly different (P = 0.99) from the Y-upright responses. This suggests that, in this frequency range, the conjugate OT response during Y-upright stimulation might be composed of two components: (1) a response to shear force along the y-axis (as in Y-supine stimulation), and (2) a response to roll tilt of gravitoinertial force (as in Z-RED stimulation).

Ballistics Model for Particles on a Horizontal Plane in a Vacuum Propelled by a Vertically Impinging Gas Jet

A simple trajectory model has been developed and is presented. The particle trajectory path is estimated by computing the vertical position as a function of the horizontal position using a constant horizontal velocity and a vertical acceleration approximated as a power law. The vertical particle position is then found by solving the differential equation of motion using a double integral of vertical acceleration divided by the square of the horizontal velocity, integrated over the horizontal position. The input parameters are: x(sub 0) and y(sub 0), the initial particle starting point; the derivative of the trajectory at x(sub 0) and y(sub 0), s(sub 0) = s(x(sub 0))= dx(y)/dy conditional expectation y = y((sub 0); and b where bx(sub 0)/y(sub 0) is the final trajectory angle before gravity pulls the particle down. The final parameter v(sub 0) is an approximation to a constant horizontal velocity. This model is time independent, providing vertical position x as a function of horizontal distance y: x(y) = (x(sub 0) + s(sub 0) (y-y(sub 0))) + bx(sub 0) -(s(sub 0)y(sub 0) ((y - y(sub 0)/y(sub 0) - ln((y/y(sub 0)))-((g(y-y(sub 0)(exp 2))/ 2((v(sub 0)(exp 2). The first term on the right in the above equation is due to simple ballistics and a spherically expanding gas so that the trajectory is a straight line intersecting (0,0), which is the point at the center of the gas impingement on the surface. The second term on the right is due to vertical acceleration, which may be positive or negative. The last term on the right is the gravity term, which for a particle with velocities less than escape velocity will eventually bring the particle back to the ground. The parameters b, s(sub 0), and in some cases v(sub 0), are taken from an interpolation of similar parameters determined from a CFD simulation matrix, coupled with complete particle trajectory simulations.
