26 Battin, Margaret P.On the relationship between suicide-prevention and suicide-advocacy groupsLargely in response to contemporary medicine's advancing technological capacities to extend the process of dying to extraordinary lengths, recent years have seen the emergence of numerous advocacy groups concerned with what is often called "death with dignity.1982
27 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.Optical properties of the cation-deficient platinum chain salt K1.75Pt(CN)4¢1.5H2OThe room-temperature polarized reflectance of a potassium-deficient platinum chain salt K1.75Pt(CN)4.1.5Hz[K0 (def)CP] has been measured in the infrared and visible.

32 Olivera, Baldomero M.Poly (ADP-ribosylation) in Vitro: reaction parameters and enzyme mechanismThe reaction catalyzed by poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase from bovine thymus was investigated using the purified enzyme, calf thymus DNA, and histone H1. The rate and extent of poly(ADP-ribosylation), as well as the spectrum of acceptor proteins, changed as reaction conditions were varied. The ionic co...ADP-ribosylation; Poly(ADP-ribose) synthetase; Histone H11982
33 Coley, Phyllis D.Rates of herbivory on different tropical treesRates of herbivory on marked young and mature leaves from saplings of 21 canopy tree species were measured in the wet and dry seasons. Species were classified into two life history groups: persistent species which are found throughout the shaded understory, and pioneer species which only become e...Herbivory; Grazing damage; Tropical trees; Pioneer species; Trees -- Tropics1982
34 Armentrout, Peter B.Reaction of Cr+, Mn+, Fe+, Co+, and Ni+ with O2 and N2O. Examination of the translational energy dependence of the cross sections of endothermic reactionsReactions of Cr+, Mn+, Fe+, Co+, and Ni+ with 02 and N20 to yield metal oxide ions are examined using an ion beam apparatus. Reaction cross sections a as a function of ion translational energy E are reported. With one exception, Fe+ + N20, the cross sections exhibit an energy threshold E0.Metal oxides; Endothermic reactions; Translational energy; Bond energy; Threshold energy1982
35 O'Rourke, Dennis H.Refutation of the general single locus model for the etiology of schizophreniaAll published studies on the familial incidence of schizophrenia appropriate for testing the applicability of the general single-locus two-allele model are examined under the assumption of a unitary etiology for all schizophrenia. We show that the single major locus model is inadequate to predict th...Genetics; Diseases in Twins; Chromosome Mapping1982
36 Breznay, Ann MarieSampler of databases for searches in historyTo review successfully the databases appropriate for historical research, some practical application is necessary. The following reviews of eight bibliographic databases emphasize their usefulness as practical research aids for topics in history. The comments are on only a selected number of the d...Historical research1982
37 Bhanu, BirSegmentation of images having unimodal distributionsA gradient relaxation method based on maximizing a criterion function is studied and compared to the nonlinear probabilistic relaxation method for the purpose of segmentation of images having unimodal distributions. Although both methods provide comparable segmentation results, the gradient method h...Gradient relaxation method; Image segmentation; Segmentation algorithm1982
38 Organick, Elliott I.Semiannual technical report transformation of ADA programs into silicon (1 Sept. 1981- 28 Feb. 1982)This report summarizes the first six months work of the research project, "Transformation of Ada Programs into Silicon." Our project has five main objectives: 1. Develop and document elements of a transformation methodology for converting Ada programs, or program constructs, into VLSI systems which ...ADA programs; VLSI1982
39 Mineau, Geraldine PageSpecification of marital fertility by parents' age, age at marriage and marital durationThe positive association between wife's age at marriage and fertility experienced at the older reproductive ages, cited in recent natural fertility literature, is explored using Mormon birth cohorts from 1840 to 1879. When this relationship is specified by husband's age at marriage and marriage dur...Marital fertility; Marital duration; Paternal age; Father's age; Mother's age1982
40 Symko, Orest GeorgeSuperconducting microphone for photoacoustic spectroscopyA superconducting microphone has been developed for photoacoustic spectroscopy at low temperatures. The microphone consists of a thin mylar membrane coated with a film of lead whose motion is detected by SQUID magnetometer. For the simple set-up presented here, the limiting pressure sensitivity is ...Superconducting microphone; Photoacoustic spectroscopy; Low temperatures1982

46 Lindstrom, Gary E.Toward function-based distributed database systemsWe discuss the suitability of a function-based (or "applicative") approach to the construction of distributed database systems. Certain aspects of applicative systems are immediatley appealing for this purpose (e.g. data oriented toward conceptual objects rather than toward particular representation...Function-based; distributed database systems; applicative1982

49 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Vapor phase interaction of trimethylaluminum with graphite during OMVPEWe have used a molecular beam mass spectrometer to study the interaction of trimethylaluminum (TMA) with graphite surfaces. Our results indicate that a strong adsorption effect occurs which explains phenomena occuring during OMVPE growth of AlxGa1-xAs, such as long A1 transients, oxygen gettering, a...Organometallic vapor phase epitaxy; Thermodynamics; Graphite; Trimethylaluminum1982
50 Miller, Joel Steven; Epstein, Arthur J.X-ray observation of crossover of 2kF to 4kF scattering in (N-Methylphenazinium)x(Phenazine)1-x(Tetracyanoquinodimethane) [(NMP)x(Phen)1-x(TCNQ)], 0.5 (< _x <_ 1.0)We report the temperature-dependent x-ray diffuse scattering of (NMP),(Phen)(1-x-)(TCNQ) as a function of conduction-electron density (x).
