2 Morse, Michael DavidThe 846 nm A? ???u ? ??? band system of jet-cooled V?The 846 nm band system of jet-cooled 5?V2 has been recorded using resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy, and is assigned as the A ? 3?u- +X ??g- band system. Both the ?'= 1u? ?" = 1g and ?'= Ou+ ??? = 0g+ subbands of the O-O band have been rotationally resolved and analyzed. Although the trans...1992
3 Morse, Michael DavidThe ?IIou ?X ???g band system of jet-cooled Ti?A band of jet-cooled ??Ti? has been located in the near infrared by resonant two-photon ionization spectroscopy. Rotational analysis has shown the band to be an ?? =O* ???=1 transition, which is consistent with the 3??g, ground state proposed by Bauschlicher ef al. [J. Chem. Phys. 95, 1057 ( 1991)]...1992
4 Olivera, Baldomero M.Conus peptides: phylogenetic range of biological activityThe major function of the venoms of the predatory marine snails belonging to the genus Conus is to paralyze prey. Thus, the venom of each Conus species acts on receptors and ion channels of the prey; previous studies suggested much less activity on homologous receptor targets in more distant taxa....Conus peptides; Conopeptides; Conotoxins1992
5 Davidson, Diane W.Experimental manipulation of food bodies in CecropiaNeotropical Cecropia trees range from Mexico to Argentina and are typical of disturbed habitats. Cecropia plants provide food and housing for the ants in return for known or presumed protection from herbivores and vine cover. Glycogen-rich Mullerian bodies (MB's) are the predominant food source for ...Mullerian bodies; Trichilia; Cecropia tessmannii; Cecropia pungara1992
6 Olivera, Baldomero M.; Hillyard, David R.Heterodimeric structure of the spider toxin ω-Agatoxin IA revealed by precursor analysis and mass spectrometryWe report the first molecular characterization of a precursor sequence for a small, Ca2+ channel blocking, peptide spider toxin, ω-agatoxin IA. By integrating information generated from a molecular genetic approach using agatoxin cDNAs with data provided from mass spectrometry of the mature tox...Spider toxin w-Aga-IA; Heterodimeric structure1992
7 Adler, Frederick R.Information collection and spread by networks of patrolling antsTo study how a social group, such as an ant colony, monitors events occurring throughout its territory, we present a model of a network of patrolling ants engaged in information collection and dissemination. In this network, individuals follow independent paths through a region and can exchange sign...Patrolling network; ant colony; information-gathering1992
8 Beckerle, Mary C.Interaction between zyxin and α-actininZyxin is an 82-kD protein first identified as a component of adhesion plaques and the termini of stress fibers near where they associate with the cytoplasmic face of the adhesive membrane. We report here that zyxin interacts with the actin cross-linking protein α-actinin.Zyxin; Actinin; Actin1992
9 Morse, Michael DavidLaser vaporization generation of Y ??B+, Y ??B+, and YAI+ for electron spin resonance studies in neon matrices at 4 K: comparison with theoretical calculationsThe first spectroscopic investigation of 89Y 10B+, 89Y 11B+, and 89Y 27Al+ is reported, revealing that both of these diatomic cation radicals have X 4?- electronic ground states. The ions were generated by three high energy techniques in combination with neon matrix isolation at 4 K and studied by e...1992
10 Morse, Michael DavidLigand-field theory applied to diatomic transition metals. Results for the d?Ad?B?? states of Ni?, the d?Nid??cu?? states of NiCu, and the d?Ni(?F)d??cu???*? excited states of NiCuA ligand-field theory has been developed for transition-metal diatomics having electronic configurations of d?Ad??B??, d?Ad?B?? and d?A(?F)d??B???*?. The theory treats each atom as a point charge and includes spin-orbit interactions. No contributions due to d-orbital chemical bonding are included. ...1992
11 Gondolo, PaoloNeutralinos as dark matter in the minimal supergravity modelA new approach to the phenomenological study of the minimal supergravity model is presented in which the model is effectively parametrized in terms of five low energy observables. Radiative corrections due to large Yukawa couplings and particle-sparticle mass splitting are included into the analysis...Neutralinos1992
12 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.Organic and molecular ferromagnetsUnlike common ferromagnets such as iron, nickel, cobalt or even cobalt-samarium and Nb-Fe-B, it is extremely rare for a discrete molecule, especially an organic or polymeric material, to have cooperative magnetic interactions. Since the mid-1980s a few such materials have been prepared which demon...Magnetic; Magnetization; Temperature1992
13 Ehleringer, James R.Plant adaptation in the Great Basin and Colorado PlateauAdaptive features of plants of the Great Basin are reviewed. The combination of cold winters and an arid to semiarid precipitation regime results in the distinguishing features of the vegetation in the Great Basin and Colorado Plateau. The primary effects of these climatic features arise from how t...Plant adaptation; Great Basin; Colorado Plateau; Cold deserts1992
14 Morse, Michael DavidPredissociation lifetimes of vibrational levels of the excited ? B? (Ka=O) electronic states of Cd ? H? and Cd ? D? complexesThe experimental rates of predissociation of vibrational levels of the ?B? (K'a-O) excited states of the Cd ? HZ and Cd ? D2 complexes are shown to be consistent with both semiclassical and quantum-mechanical pseudodiatomic theoretical treatments of the process. The ?B? pseudodiatomic potential was ...1992

20 Ailion, David CharlesThermal fluctuations and NMR spectra of incommensurate systemsIn the presence of thermal fluctuations the incommensurate NMR line shape is a convolution of a static inhomogeneous with a dynamic homogeneous line shape which can be determined separately by 2D NMR.
