AbstractWe studied adsorption, growth and desorption of Xe on Nb(110) using an in-situ obliqueincidence reflectivity difference (OI-RD) technique and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) from 32 K to 100 K. The results show that Xe grows a (111)-oriented film after a transition layer is formed on Nb(110). The transition layer consists of three layers. The first two layers are disordered with Xe-Xe separation significantly larger than the bulk value. The third monolayer forms a close packed (111) structure on top of the tensile-strained double layer and serves as a template for subsequent homoepitaxy. The adsorption of the first and the second layers are zeroth order with sticking coefficient close to one. Growth of the Xe(111) film on the transition layer proceeds in a step flow mode from 54K to 40K. At 40K, an incomplete layer-by-layer growth is observed while below 35K the growth proceeds in a multilayer mode.

ABSTRACT An unusual large teeth, finding from time to time in marine sediments of Muschelkalk, Silesia, Poland indicate the superpredators occurrence. According to size and morphological features the teeth are similar to archosaurs or giant marine reptiles.

Diatom Complexes

The richest diatom complexes have revealed due to the study of glacial-marine sediments sampled in the Fisher Massif (Prince Charles Mountains, East Antarctica) during 52nd and 53rd Russian Antarctic Expeditions (Polar Marine Geol. Survey Expedition) in 2006/07 and 2007/08. Three diatom complexes are distinguished according to different palaeoecological conditions: the planktonic one is located in the basis of the outcrop, while mixed planktonic-benthic and benthic ones being located above. The planktonic diatom complexes are dominated by two oceanic species Actinocyclus ingens (up to 8%) and Denticulopsis simonseni (up to 80%). There are 15 planktonic algae, e. g. Eucampia аntarctica, Fragilariopsis spp., Rhizosolenia spp., Rouxia antarctica, Podosira antarctica sp. nov., Stellarima microtrias; and also unknown and non-described benthic diatoms Achnanthes sp., Cocconeis spp., Rhabdonema (s. l.) spp. and Synedra (s. l.) spp. Detailed data on morphology and taxonomy of 10 centric diatoms are presented, including 3 newly described species.
