Ni2MnGa铁磁形状记忆材料

铁磁形状记忆合金 (FSMA)是在一定温度范围马氏体相稳定同时又具铁磁性的一类特殊的形状记忆合金。Ni2MnGa铁磁形状记忆合金近年来成为呈现磁场驱动大应变的新型驱动材料 ,这些应变来自磁场诱发马氏体孪晶的重排 ,而不是磁场对奥氏体至马氏体相变的作用。孪晶变体的重排在宏观上呈现为正或切应变 ,一非化学计量比Ni2 MnGa单晶于室温加 0 .4T磁场能产生6 %的应变 ,Ni Mn Ga单晶在高至 15 0Hz的交变磁场仍可得到 2 .5 %的应变。本文阐述了与这种磁控形状记忆效应相关的孪晶界迁动的磁学和晶体学理论。马氏体相的大磁晶各向异性能使磁化沿c轴方向有利 ,穿过孪晶界c轴刚好转动 90度 ,同时 ,这个孪晶界也构成了约 90度的畴界。在各向异性的情况下 ,孪晶界的迁动仅有相邻孪晶变体的Zeeman能差驱动 ,μ0 ΔMis·Hi。磁场和外应力对应变的影响通过对一简单的自由能表达式取极小值来表示 ,自由能表达式包括Zeeman能、磁晶各向异性能和外应力以及在某些情况下需考虑的内部弹性能 ,模型的所有参数可通过应力 应变曲线和磁化曲线测量得到。铁磁形状记忆合金的磁场诱发应变可类比传统热弹性形状记忆效应 ,与更为人们所熟知的磁致伸缩现象不同。     

Induction of autotomy in the American bird grasshopperSchistocerca americana (Drury) by the ecdysone agonist RH-5849 and investigation of its mode of action

The non-steroidal ecdysone agonist RH-5849 (1,2-dibenzoyl-l-tert-butylhydrazine) was found to be an effective neurotoxicant on injection into the American bird grasshopper,Schistocerca americana (Drury). Treated grasshoppers became immediately hyperactive, followed by loss of coordination, paralysis and eventually death. We also discovered that this compound induced bilateral autotomy of the metathoracic legs during the early stages of intoxication. However, no evidence of ecdysonergic or morphogenetic activities was observed. Synergism studies with neurotoxins of known mode of action suggested that RH-5849 has a mechanism of action similar to that of 4-amino pyridine, which blocks potassium channels.     

Antioxidant survey to assess antagonism to redox stress using a prokaryotic and an eukaryotic system

Using a prokaryote (Escherichia coli) and a metazoa-resembling eukaryote (Ochromonas danica), we surveyed antioxidants which might overcome redox stress imposed by menadione sodium bisulphite (MD) and buthionine sulphoximine (BSO). BSO oxidant stress was evident only inO. danica; MD oxidant stress was evident in both organisms. Glutathione, its precursors, e.g. cysteine, homocysteine, and 2-oxo-4-thiazolidine carboxylic acid, and red blood cells, emerged as prime antioxidants for relieving BSO and MD oxidant stress. BSO and MD oxidant activity and antioxidant-annulling effect inO. danica were judged comparable to those found in animal cells whereas the resultsE. coli were not entirely equivalent. TheO. danica system emerged as a practical, rapid, and useful system for pinpointing oxidant stressors and antioxidants, and shows promise for studies with mammalian systems.     

(−)-Epigallocatechin gallate,a polyphenolic tea antioxidant,inhibits peroxynitritemediated formation of 8-oxodeoxyguanosine and 3-nitrotyrosine

Reaction with peroxynitrite at pH 7.4 and 37°C was found to increase the 8-oxodeoxyguanosine levels in calf thymus DNA 35-38-fold. This oxidation of deoxyguanosine, as well as the peroxynitrite-mediated nitration of tyrosine to 3-nitrotyrosine, was significantly inhibited by ascorbic acid, glutathione and (–)-epigallocatechin gallate, a polyphenolic antioxidant present in tea. For 50% inhibition of the oxidation of deoxyguanosine to 8-oxodeoxyguanosine, 1.1, 7.6 of 0.25 mM ascorbate, glutathione or (–)-epigallocatechin gallate, respectively, was required. For 50% inhibition of tyrosine nitration, the respective concentrations were 1.4, 4.6 or 0.11 mM. Thus, (–)-epigallocatechin gallate is a significantly better inhibitor of both reactions than either ascorbate or glutathione. Reaction of (–)-epigallocatechin gallate with peroxynitrite alone resulted in the formation of a number of products. Ultraviolet spectra of two of these suggest that the tea polyphenol and/or its oxidation products are nitrated by peroxynitrite.

卫星低频电磁辐射在轨探测研究

利用地球空间探测双星计划探测一号卫星上的磁场波动分析仪的原始数据, 分析了探测一号卫星在轨电磁辐射的特性. 结果显示卫星的电磁辐射主要集中在30 Hz以下. 在30 Hz以上, 卫星的电磁辐射最多延伸到 190 Hz左右, 而且强度明显减弱. 在 190 Hz以下的卫星电磁辐射具有与卫星姿态相关的长周期变化. 在 190~830 Hz的范围的电磁辐射有不明显的长周期变化特征. 830~3990 Hz范围的电磁辐射没有长周期变化特征. 卫星电磁辐射的长周期变化是由卫星姿态变化造成的. 卫星姿态变化引起卫星太阳方位角变化. 卫星太阳方位角越大, 卫星电磁辐射越大. 卫星太阳方位角从90.6增加到93.6, 低于10 Hz以下的电磁辐射约增大为原来的9倍, 10~190 Hz范围的电磁辐射大约增加到原来的1.6倍. 卫星在＜10和10~190 Hz范围内的电磁辐射强度与卫星太阳方位角的相关系数分别达到0.90和0.91. 卫星在光照情况下的电磁辐射要比卫星在阴影情况下大. 卫星太阳能帆板电流产生的电磁辐射是卫星电磁辐射主要来源, 约占整个卫星电磁辐射的87％(低频段<150 Hz)和94％(高频段>150 Hz). 这些中国首次对卫星电磁辐射的在轨探测结果对于我国未来相关科学和应用卫星的设计方案的优化具有重要的参考价值.
