Abstract: Abstract A FORTRAN program named RIETAN (RIETveld ANalysis) was independently developed in Japan for Rietveld analysis of angle-dispersive X-ray and neutron powder data (Izumi 1985; Izumi 1989). It has since become the heart of a suite of related programs called FAT-RIETAN (Section 13.2). RIETAN was later modified to work with TOF neutron powder data (Izumi et al.1987) measured on the high-resolution powder diffractometer, HRP (Watanabe et al.1987), installed at the KENS pulsed neutron source at the National Laboratory for High Energy Physics (KEK). Since 1983, structures of many metals and inorganic compounds, most of which are superconducting copper oxides and related compounds, have been refined routinely with this program. As well as having many of the ‘usual’ features of other good programs, such as GSAS and DBWS-9006 described in Chapter 1, RIETAN has some special features of interest. Chief among them are (i) a choice of three different least-squares algorithms (Section 13.1.6), (ii) the possibility to change from one algorithm to another under programmatic control to confirm the convergence to a global minimum (Section 13.1.7), and (iii) incremental refinement in which variable parameters in each cycle are changed appropriately during the course of a refinement series (Section 13.1.7). Databases storing crystallographic information and physical quantities of elements are attached to RIET AN (Section 13.1.2). Both linear and non-linear constraints can be accommodated, the latter along with an exterior penalty function method (Section 13.1.5).

Abstract: PURPOSE:To detect only Z-folding documents from among mixedly loaded documents, and also solve troublesomeness and so on in restoring the documents to a Z-folding condition after reading them by arranging a discriminating means having a carrying-in section to carry in only Z-folding parts of the Z-folding documents and a detecting section to detect the Z-folding parts carried in this carrying-in section. CONSTITUTION:After Z-folding documents are separated one by one by means of a separating section, the tip of the second folding part of a Z-folding document Gz is introduced to a space 108 as it is carried. When the Z-folding document Gz is further carried, the second folding part is extended smoothly along a rounding section 110 arranged on the tip of a guide plate 107, and is received to a carrier belt 106. On the other hand, as for the Z-folding document, in the case where the central part approaches the space 108 and a folding back part also enters the space 108, since an entrance of a paper sheet is detected by means of a Z-folding document detecting sensor 111 arranged in the vicinity of an introduction port of the extending space 108 immediately after it is separated, only the Z-folding document is recognized, so that it can be distinguished from other non Z-folding documents.

Abstract: Information is recorded, organized, and formatted using a computer, and printed onto paper provided with track-feed holes which are used both for feeding through a printer and for mounting the paper on ring elements of a binder. The pages are provided with fold lines such that the pages may be folded along the line to fit within the binder. When a page is unfolded, a foldout leaf projects outward beyond an edge of the binder so that the leaf and information recorded thereon is visible while turned to a different page in the notebook. Various paper designs allow tailoring of the system to user needs. In addition, step-indexing of pages allows headers on numerous pages to be visible simultaneously. Also disclosed is a task-oriented system for organizing information wherein the pages in the notebook are separated into sections and wherein pages in a section are devoted to a single topic.

Abstract: Second person fiction cannot be easily accomodated within current narratological paradigms. In particular, there are now a great number of very different second person texts available which require a more than cursory analysis. In a first section problems are discussed, the second section traces some real-life discurse type, and finally, the third section discusses one particulary complex second person text

Abstract: Tusi (1201-1274 a.d.) was an Arabic scholar whose writings became the standard texts in several disciplines for several centuries. They include editions of Euclid's Elements and Ptolemy's Almagest, as well as other books on mathematics and astronomy, and books on logic, ethics, religion. He wrote the Tadhkira, to be "a summary account of 'astronomy' presented in narrative form. The details are expounded and proofs of the validity are furnished in the Almagest. Indeed, ours would not be a complete science if taken in isolation from the Almagest for it is a report of what is established therein." It is thus not only a sort of running commentary on the Almagest, but also an account of medieval Arabic cosmology. Jamil Ragep has not only translated the text of the Tadhkira, but has also provided a lengthy introduction with a biography of Tusi and a discussion of the context in which the Tadhkira was written and its influence, as well as a detailed and thorough commentary on each section of the text.

Abstract: Courts and criminal law scholars have struggled for decades to sort out the relationship between the basic concept of knowledge, which is central to our notions of criminal responsibility, and the concept of \"willful blindness.\"' According to the Model Penal Code (the Code),2 knowledge of a fact is satisfied by finding an \"awareness of a high probability\" that it existed.3 The drafters of the Code explain that they defined knowledge of a fact this way in

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a reading section for reading image data, an image forming section for forming an image based on the image data, and a filing section, having a disk memory section, for recording the image data. When a memory disk is inserted in the filing section, a copying mode is changed to a filing mode. The reading section is capable of reading information members, on which image data is recorded, in the read order suitable for image forming or the read order suitable for image filing. An optimal read order can be selected, depending on whether the memory disk is inserted in the filing section or the image forming section.

Abstract: Abstract This chapter draws together the results of empirical research on the impact of merger on market structure and economic performance in the UK.1 It concentrates almost exclusively on the post-war period. The chapter is organized in four sections. In Section l, possible approaches to assessing the impact of mergers on market structure and company performance and their implications for economic welfare are briefly set out. In Section 2, the principal characteristics of post-war merger activity in the UK are described. Section 3 looks at the relationship between mergers and concentration and diversification as indicators of structural change, whilst Section 4 concentrates upon the impact of merger upon corporate performance. The final section draws the discussion of structure and performance effects together and makes some brief points relevant to competition policy matters.

Abstract: A paper piece storing device disposed in association with a conveying mechanism and having a paper piece storing container (20) for storing paper pieces being conveyed. This device includes a temporarily storing section (33), a rotatably displacing mechanism (30, 80) and a separating mechanism (60). The temporarily storing section (33) is adapted to receive paper pieces M being conveyed and stores them temporarily. The rotatably displacing mechanism (30, 80) is adapted to rotatably displace the storing section, whereby the paper pieces stored in the storing section are led to a paper piece storing position of the paper piece storing container (20). The separating mechanism (60) prevents the paper pieces stored in the temporarily storing section from rotating against the operation of the rotatable displacing of the temporarily storing section and separates the paper pieces from the temporarily storing section at the paper piece storing position of the paper piece storing container.

Abstract: Abstract This paper is partially expository and is intended as an introduction to the Langlands program for number theorists. The new theorem in the paper is that automorphic induction map for Hecke characters implies both the Artin conjecture and the Langlands reciprocity law. (See below for definitions.) In the last section, we describe some recent work with K. Murty [18] that applies the theory of base change to elliptic curves. The paper is not an exhaustive survey. We have tried to use some classical problems of number theory as motivation for discussion. For instance, we concentrate on GLnthough the functoriality conjecture predicts that this is not a limitation. Nevertheless, our discussion is sufficiently motivated from the number theoretic point of view that a non-specialist in the field can appreciate the depth and profundity of these ideas.

Abstract: Abstract It is not our intention to review the application of DLS to the field of polymer solutions, which would be a prohibitive undertaking, but rather to illustrate the application of the technique in a number of chosen areas. We describe in Section 6.2 some selected applications of dynamic light scattering to the study of the properties of dilute polymer solutions in terms of translational as well as internal motions of the polymer coil. Section 6.3 deals with dynamical behaviour in semidilute solution, reflecting the structure of the transient network when polymer coils overlap. Section 6.4 describes some applications to ternary polymer systems.

Abstract: PURPOSE: To easily retrieve a required scene by collecting plural index pictures obtained from video image comprising plural consecutive scenes for each scene and displaying the collected picture onto an edit pattern. CONSTITUTION: A scene change detection section 2 detects a scene from a digital moving picture. When a scene change is detected by the detection section 2, information such as a detected frame picture and a scene number is managed by a scene change management section 3. On the other hand, a characteristic frame detection section 4 matches a shape pattern stored in a material management section 5 as to a digital moving picture to detect a characteristic frame in an index picture. Then the scene change management section 3 manages the index detected by the scene change detection section 2 and the characteristic frame detection section 4 for each scene and outputs the index information to an index display section 6 and it is displayed on an edit pattern and recorded on a recording section 9.
