AbstractWe have improved previous model calculations of the prominence-corona transition region including the effect of the ambipolar diffusion in the statistical equilibrium and energy balance equations. We show its influence on the different parameters that characterize the resulting prominence theoretical structure. We take into account the effect of the partial frequency redistribution (PRD) in the line profiles and total intensities calculations.

Dynamic Phenomena

It is well-known that solar activity is basically caused by the Interaction of magnetic fields with convection and solar rotation, resulting in a great variety of dynamic phenomena, like flares, surges, sunspots, prominences, etc. Many conferences have been devoted to solar activity, including the role of magnetic fields. Similar attention has not been paid to the role of magnetic fields for the overall dynamics and energy balance of the solar atmosphere, related to the general problem of chromospheric and coronal heating. To penetrate this problem we have to focus our attention more on the physical conditions in the ‘quiet’ regions than on the conspicuous phenomena in active regions.

Right Atria

The use of immunogold-silver staining (IGSS) to enhance label penetration and Localization for immunocytochemistry or in situ hybridization utilizing a variety of metallic salts has been documented. In this morphological study, the effects of silver acetate, silver lactate and silver nitrate were evaluated for immunogold-labeling of a trial natriuretic peptides (ANP) in rat right atria.Eight Wistar Kyoto retired breeders were sedated with pentobarbital, perfused with either 4% paraformaldehyde (LM) or Karnovsky's fixative (EM), and right atria were dissected, processed, embedded in paraffin or epon, respectively and sectioned according to conventional methods. For light microscopy, an indirect IGSS method according to Hacker (3) was performed. Paraffin sections on glass slides were washed in ddH2O, immersed in Lugol's iodine, washed in ddH2O and treated with 2.5% aqueous sodium thiosulfate for 20 sec. After additional washes in ddH2O and TBS-0.1% fish gelatin, 10% normal goat serum (PBS with 1% BSA) was applied for 20 min before an overnight incubation at 4°C with a polyclonal α-ANP primary antibody (Peninsula Labs, 1:1000 in TBS/BSA).
