The manufacture of kitchen and bath countertops in Israel is based mainly on artificial stone that contains 93% silica as natural quartz, and ∼3500 workers are involved in cutting and processing it. Artificial stone produces high concentrations of silica...

The Temperature-Dependence of Multiphonon Relaxation of Rare-Earth Ions in Solid-State Hosts.

The journal of physical chemistry. C, Nanomaterials and interfaces

Yu D, Ballato J, Riman RE.
PMID: 28408967
J Phys Chem C Nanomater Interfaces. 2016 May 12;120(18):9958-9964. doi: 10.1021/acs.jpcc.6b01466. Epub 2016 Apr 05.

Rare-earth ions are used in a wide range of emissive devices - ranging from lasers to displays - where high optical efficiency and narrow-linewidth are important. While their radiative properties are important, nonradiative properties are also critical since they...

Toward an Integrated Classification of Ecosystems: Defining Opportunities for Managing Fish and Forest Health.

Environmental management

PMID: 10667948
Environ Manage. 2000 Apr;25(4):425-444. doi: 10.1007/s002679910034.

/ Many of the aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems of the Pacific Northwest United States have been simplified and degraded in part through past land-management activities. Recent listings of fishes under the Endangered Species Act and major new initiatives for...

Microscopic dynamics in a strongly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate.

Physical review letters

Claussen NR, Donley EA, Thompson ST, Wieman CE.
PMID: 12097023
Phys Rev Lett. 2002 Jul 01;89(1):010401. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.89.010401. Epub 2002 Jun 14.

An initially stable 85Rb Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) was subjected to a carefully controlled magnetic field pulse near a Feshbach resonance. This pulse probed the strongly interacting regime for the BEC, with the diluteness parameter (na(3)) ranging from 0.01 to...

Stable 85Rb bose-einstein condensates with widely tunable interactions.

Physical review letters

Cornish SL, Claussen NR, Roberts JL, Cornell EA, Wieman CE.
PMID: 10970616
Phys Rev Lett. 2000 Aug 28;85(9):1795-8. doi: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.85.1795.

Bose-Einstein condensation has been achieved in a magnetically trapped sample of 85Rb atoms. Long-lived condensates of up to 10(4) atoms have been produced by using a magnetic-field-induced Feshbach resonance to reverse the sign of the scattering length. This system...

Differential Proliferative Characteristics of Alveolar Fibroblasts in Interstitial Lung Diseases: Regulative Role of IL-1 and PGE(2).

Mediators of inflammation

Fireman E, Ben Efraim S, Greif J, Peretz H, Kivity S, Topilsky M, Rodrig Y, Yellin A, Apte RN.

Fibroblasts (Fb) from patients with sarcoidosis (SA) and hypersensitivity pneumonitis (HP) exhibited a lower proliferative capacity compared with Fb obtained from control (CO) and diffuse interstitial fibrosis patients (DIF). Proliferation of Fb from SA or lip patients was suppressed...

Single-crystal-like materials by the self-assembly of cube-shaped lead zirconate titanate (PZT) microcrystals.

We demonstrated the formation of single-crystal-like materials that contain preferentially oriented arrays of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) cube-shaped particles by self-assembly. Hydrothermally synthesized PZT particles with a bulk composition of Zr/Ti = 70/30 were used in making microcrystal arrays....
