Abstract

The discovery of the first electromagnetic counterpart to a gravitational wave signal has generated follow-up observations by over 50 facilities world-wide, ushering in the new era of multi-messenger astronomy. In this paper, we present follow-up observations of the gravitational wave event GW170817 and its electromagnetic counterpart SSS17a/DLT17ck (IAU label AT2017gfo) by 14 Australian telescopes and partner observatories as part of Australian-based and Australian-led research programs. We report early- to late-time multi-wavelength observations, including optical imaging and spectroscopy, mid-infrared imaging, radio imaging, and searches for fast radio bursts. Our optical spectra reveal that the transient source afterglow cooled from approximately 6400K to 2100K over a 7-day period and produced no significant optical emission lines. The spectral profiles, cooling rate, and photometric light curves are consistent with the expected outburst and subsequent processes of a binary neutron star merger. Star formation in the host galaxy probably ceased at least a Gyr ago, although there is evidence for a galaxy merger. Binary pulsars with short (100 Myr) decay times are therefore unlikely progenitors, but pulsars like PSR B1534+12 with its 2.7 Gyr coalescence time could produce such a merger. The displacement (about 2.2 kpc) of the binary star system from the centre of the main galaxy is not unusual for stars in the host galaxy or stars originating in the merging galaxy, and therefore any constraints on the kick velocity imparted to the progenitor are poor., 26 pages, 9 figures, 15 tables

Abstract

We have performed differential display comparing gene expression from cell lines derived from human colorectal tumors. The cell lines were selected for study based on their ability to form metastases following injection into athymic mice. One gene which was expressed exclusively by the metastatic lines was identified as human acylphosphatase (e.c. 3.6.1.7, acylphosphate phosphohydrolase). The expression of this gene was confirmed by RT-PCR using gene-specific primers. This gene product catalyzes the hydrolysis of phosphorylated intermediates of Na+/K(+)-ATPase and of Ca(2+)-ATPases of mammalian cells. Changes in the activity of the Na+/K(+)-ATPase pump, regulated by acylphosphatase, have been previously reported in chemically-induced colonic tumors. The differential expression of this gene in the human metastatic colorectal lines suggests it may be involved in the metastatic phenotype.

4. Effect of scintillation camera nonuniformity on ejection fraction measurements

Abstract

A rotating cardiac phantom with three possible ejection fraction (EF) values was used in conjunction with a scintillation camera employing energy correction and count skim arithmetic for uniformity correction. Studies were collected with and without any correction, with the energy window of the analyzer set properly, and with the camera properly tuned. The uniformity was then degraded in one experiment by off-setting the analyzer window both high and low with respect to the primary photopeak and in another experiment by de-tuning a selected photomultiplier tube. In both experiments studies were taken with no correction enabled, and then with each of the correction options enabled. The results of both experiments show that ejection fraction values could be in error when the differential uniformity using National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) protocols exceeds 10%. If either energy correction alone, or energy correction combined with count skim correction is used, the ejection fraction values return to more acceptable values. Asymmetric windows, improper setting of the energy window or a badly tuned photomultiplier will likely result in poor analog images before the effect on ejection fraction measurements becomes evident. Uniformity correction devices do not adversely affect the numerical results obtained from these phantom studies, but should, nevertheless, be used with caution.
