- We combine searches by the CDF and D0 Collaborations for a Higgs boson decaying to W+W-. The data correspond to an integrated total luminosity of 4.8 (CDF) and 5.4 (D0) fb(-1) of p (p) over bar collisions at root s = 1.96 TeV at the Fermilab Tevatron collider. No excess is observed above background expectation, and resulting limits on Higgs boson production exclude a standard model Higgs boson in the mass range 162-166 GeV at the 95% C.L.

- Efforts to extract a Greenland ice core with a complete record of the Eemian interglacial (130,000 to 115,000 years ago) have until now been unsuccessful. The response of the Greenland ice sheet to the warmer-than-present climate of the Eemian has thus remained unclear. Here we present the new North Greenland Eemian Ice Drilling ('NEEM') ice core and show only a modest ice-sheet response to the strong warming in the early Eemian. We reconstructed the Eemian record from folded ice using globally homogeneous parameters known from dated Greenland and Antarctic ice-core records. On the basis of water stable isotopes, NEEM surface temperatures after the onset of the Eemian (126,000 years ago) peaked at 8 +/- 4 degrees Celsius above the mean of the past millennium, followed by a gradual cooling that was probably driven by the decreasing summer insolation. Between 128,000 and 122,000 years ago, the thickness of the northwest Greenland ice sheet decreased by 400 +/- 250 metres, reaching surface elevations 122,000 years ago of 130 +/- 300 metres lower than the present. Extensive surface melt occurred at the NEEM site during the Eemian, a phenomenon witnessed when melt layers formed again at NEEM during the exceptional heat of July 2012. With additional warming, surface melt might become more common in the future.

- Reactive astrocytes are astrocytes undergoing morphological, molecular, and functional remodeling in response to injury, disease, or infection of the CNS. Although this remodeling was first described over a century ago, uncertainties and controversies remain regarding the contribution of reactive astrocytes to CNS diseases, repair, and aging. It is also unclear whether fixed categories of reactive astrocytes exist and, if so, how to identify them. We point out the shortcomings of binary divisions of reactive astrocytes into good-vs-bad, neurotoxic-vs-neuroprotective or A1-vs-A2. We advocate, instead, that research on reactive astrocytes include assessment of multiple molecular and functional parameters-preferably in vivo-plus multivariate statistics and determination of impact on pathological hallmarks in relevant models. These guidelines may spur the discovery of astrocyte-based biomarkers as well as astrocyte-targeting therapies that abrogate detrimental actions of reactive astrocytes, potentiate their neuro- and glioprotective actions, and restore or augment their homeostatic, modulatory, and defensive functions. Good-bad binary classifications fail to describe reactive astrocytes in CNS disorders. Here, 81 researchers reach consensus on widespread misconceptions and provide definitions and recommendations for future research on reactive astrocytes.

- Zirconium carbide films have been deposited on silicon (100) substrates using direct current magnetron reactive sputtering using CH4 as a carbon source. The films exhibit a typical nanocomposite structure consisting of nanocrystalline ZrCx (nc-ZrC) grains embedded in a matrix of amorphous carbon (a-C) at low carbon content. Almost no crystalline phase can be found for carbon contents above 86 at.%. The mechanical, tribological and electrical properties of the films showed a significant dependency on the amount of the a-C in the nanocomposite structure. A larger amount of a-C gives rise to reduced hardness and higher resistivity of the film. However, both friction coefficient and wear resistance are improved by increasing the content of the surplus a-C. The influence of binding state of excess a-C phase on the properties has also been investigated. A larger sp(2)/sp(3) ratio was beneficial to relax the stress and improve the electrical properties. The Zr-based films exhibited lower friction coefficients than nanocomposites films based on e.g. Ti suggesting a potential application for this material in sliding contacts.

- Carbon nitride films are deposited using dc magnetron sputtering in a N2 discharge. The nature of chemical bonding of the films is investigated using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, near-edge X-ray absorption fine structure, and X-ray emission spectroscopy. X-Ray photoelectron spectroscopy spectra show that N1s binding states depend on substrate temperature, in which two pronounced peaks can be observed. The near edge X-ray absorption fine structure at C1s and N1s exhibits a similar absorption profile in the p* resonance region, but the s* resonance is sharper in the N1s spectra. Resonant N K-emission spectra show a strong dependence on excitation photo energies. Compared XPS N1s spectra with recent theoretical calculations by Johansson and Stafstrom, two main nitrogen sites are assigned in which N bound to sp3 hybridized C and sp2 hybridized C, respectively. The correlation of X-ray photoelectron, X-ray absorption, and X-ray emission spectra for N in carbon nitride films is also discussed. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

- Carbon nitride films are deposited on Si(001) substrates by reactive d.c. magnetron sputtering graphite in a pure N2 discharge. The chemical bonding and structure of carbon nitride films were probed using Fourier transformation infrared (FTIR) and near edge X-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS), and the hardness was evaluated using nanoindentation experiments. The structure and hardness for the films are dependent on the substrate temperature (T(s)). FTIR and NEXAFS spectra show that N atoms are bound to sp1, sp2 and sp3 hybridized C atoms, and the intensity of p(*) resonance for C1s NEXAFS spectra is the lowest for the film grown at T(s) = 350°C, having a turbostratic-like structure, high hardness and stress. The correlation between the structure and hardness of carbon nitride films is discussed. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science S.A.
