A stochastic model of the flow cytometer measurement process was developed to assess the nature of the observed coefficient of variation (CV%) of the mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) from a population of labeled microspheres (beads). Several sources of variability were considered: the total number of labels on a bead, the path through the laser beam, the optical absorption cross-section, the quantum yield, the numerical aperture of the collection optics, and the photoelectron conversion efficiency of the photomultiplier (PMT) cathode. The variation in the number of labels on a bead had the largest effect on the CV% of the MFI of the bead population. The variation in the path of the bead through the laser beam was minimized using flat-top lasers. The variability in the average optical properties of the labels was of minor importance for beads with sufficiently large number of labels. The application of the bead results to the measured CV% of labeled B cells indicated that the measured CV% was a reliable measure of the variability of antibodies bound per cell. With some modifications, the model can be extended to multicolor flow cytometers and to the study of CV% from cells with low fluorescence signal.

It is shown that the first Bom approximation for the exchange of two uncorrelated electrons should vanish. A formalism for the T matrix is presented which has this property. The high-energy result for the two-electron exchange cross-section previously calculated in first Born approximation behaves like E -7 . This result is in error due to a lack of orthogonality of initial and final states. When this is corrected the result for uncorrelated electrons has an energy dependence E -11 . The introduction of correlation gives terms behaving like E -10 which cannot be calculated unam biguously.

Modern high-performance gas turbine engines operate at high turbine inlet temperatures and require internal convection cooling of many of the components exposed to the hot gas flow. Cooling air is supplied from the engine compressor at a cost to cycle performance and a design goal is to provide necessary cooling with the minimum required cooling air flow. In conjunction with this objective, two families of pin fin array geometries which have potential for improving airfoil internal cooling performance were studied experimentally. One family utilizes pins of a circular cross section with various orientations of the array with respect to the mean flow direction. The second family utilizes pins with an oblong cross section with various pin orientations with respect to the mean flow direction. Both heat transfer and pressure loss characteristics are presented. The results indicate that the use of circular pins with array orientation between staggered and inline can in some cases increase heat transfer while decreasing pressure loss. The use of elongated pins increases heat transfer, but at a high cost of increased pressure loss. In conjunction with the present measurements, previously published results were reexamined in order to estimate the magnitude of heat transfer coefficients on the pin surfaces relative to those of the endwall surfaces. The estimate indicates that the pin surface coefficients are approximately double the endwall values.


A theory is developed which describes the scattering of radio waves by the random thermal fluctuations of electron density in a collision-free plasma. The frequency spectrum, as well as the amplitude, of the scattered radiation is calculated. Particular attention is paid to the part of the spectrum which corresponds to small Doppler shifts, this being the region of greatest significance in connexion with the phenomenon of incoherent scattering from the ionosphere. The calculations are based on a generalized version of Nyquist’s noise theorem, and they lead to the following conclusions: (1) The mean scattering cross-section for the ionosphere is equal to that which would exist if each of the electrons scattered independently with a cross-section of one-half the classical Thomson cross-section. (2) The mean Doppler broadening of the scattered signal corresponds roughly to the speed of the ions rather than to that of the electrons. (3) The spectral shape of this signal is not Gaussian. There is a mild maximum in the spectrum away from the central frequency, as can be seen in figure 1. (4) Plasma resonance effects contribute only negligibly to the scattering for frequencies currently of interest.

This paper presents the results of heat transfer measurements taken on a two-dimensional supersonic parallel diffuser. The wall static pressure distributions and the corresponding heat transfer coefficients and fluxes have been measured for a range of initial total pressures. The effects of varying the area of the diffuser cross-section for the same upstream generating nozzle have also been studied. Mach number profiles measured at sections along the diffuser show that in the presence of shock waves and a positive pressure gradient the flow is very much underdeveloped. In general, the mean level of heat transfer is found to be much greater than that predicted by conventional empirical equations for subsonic pipe flows with zero pressure gradient. Further, on comparison between normal and oblique shock diffusion the former is found to give the higher level of heat transfer.

Abstract A wall stabilized low-current cylindric arc was used to produce the radiation of the negative Bromine-ions. The radiation consists of an affinity-continuum with a long-wave threshold of 3682 Å, yielding an electron affinity for Bromine of 3.366 eV, and of an intense electron-atom Bremsstrahlung in the visible. Intensity measurements of the continua allow the determination of the photo-detachment-and attachment-cross-sections of Bromine and also the determination of the mean elastic cross-section of electrons against Bromine atoms.
