In 2008, we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, this topic has received increasing attention, and many scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Thus, it is important to formulate on a regular basis updated guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Despite numerous reviews, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to evaluate autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. Here, we present a set of guidelines for investigators to select and interpret methods to examine autophagy and related processes, and for reviewers to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of reports that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a dogmatic set of rules, because the appropriateness of any assay largely depends on the question being asked and the system being used. Moreover, no individual assay is perfect for every situation, calling for the use of multiple techniques to properly monitor autophagy in each experimental setting. Finally, several core components of the autophagy machinery have been implicated in distinct autophagic processes (canonical and noncanonical autophagy), implying that genetic approaches to block autophagy should rely on targeting two or more autophagy-related genes that ideally participate in distinct steps of the pathway. Along similar lines, because multiple proteins involved in autophagy also regulate other cellular pathways including apoptosis, not all of them can be used as a specific marker for bona fide autophagic responses. Here, we critically discuss current methods of assessing autophagy and the information they can, or cannot, provide. Our ultimate goal is to encourage intellectual and technical innovation in the field.

We have investigated an origin of the superconductivity discovered in boron (B)-doped diamonds by means of 11B-NMR on heteroepitaxially grown (1 1 1) and (1 0 0) films and polycrystalline film. The characteristic difference of B-NMR spectral shape for the (1 1 1) and (1 0 0) thin films is demonstrated as arising from the difference in the concentration (nB(1)) of boron substituted for carbon. It is revealed from a scaling between a superconducting transition temperature Tc and nB(1) that the holes doped into diamond via the substitution of boron for carbon are responsible for the onset of superconductivity. The result suggests that the superconductivity in boron-doped diamond is mediated by the electron–phonon interaction brought about a high Debye temperature ~1860 K characteristic for the diamond structure.

Axonal degeneration often leads to the death of neuronal cell bodies. Previous studies have demonstrated the crucial role of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) biosynthesis in axonal protection of motor neurons, but the role of nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 1 and NAD in optic nerve degeneration is unclear. Intravitreal injection of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) induces optic nerve degeneration and subsequent loss of retinal ganglion cells. We found that the levels of nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 1 mRNA and protein and of NAD were significantly decreased in the optic nerve after intravitreal injection of TNF in rats. The concomitant disorganization of microtubules with vacuoles and neurofilament accumulations in the axons were blocked by exogenous NAD treatment. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide also prevented TNF-induced axonal loss and delayed retinal ganglion cell loss 2 months after TNF injection. Microglia identified by immunohistochemistry were increased in the optic nerves after TNF injection; this increase was inhibited by NAD treatment. These results suggest that axonal nicotinamide mononucleotide adenylyltransferase 1 and NAD declines are associated with TNF-induced optic nerve axonal degeneration and that axonal protection of NAD may be related to its inhibitory effect on microglial activation.

We examined the role of c-Jun on N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-induced neurotoxicity in the rat retina. An increase in c-Jun mRNA, c-Jun protein and phosphorylated c-Jun (p-c-Jun) levels in the retina was detected 3 hr after intravitreal injection of NMDA (20 nmol). These levels peaked after 12 hr, and then returned to their control levels by 24 hr. c-Jun and p-c-Jun immunoreactivities were observed in the retinal ganglion cell layer (RGCL), especially in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), and in the inner nuclear layer (INL) 12 hr after NMDA injection, and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated nick-end labeling (TUNEL)-positive cells were immunopositive for c-Jun and p-c-Jun. A c-Jun antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AS ODN), which was simultaneously injected with NMDA, penetrated the cells in the RGCL and the INL, suppressed the NMDA-induced increase in c-Jun and p-c-Jun protein levels and reduced the number of TUNEL-positive cells in the RGCL 12 hr after the injection. The protective effect of c-Jun AS ODN on the NMDA-treated retina was also shown by the RGCL cell count and measurement of the IPL thickness, as well as by quantitative real-time PCR analysis of Thy-1 mRNA 7 days after the injection. These results suggest that c-Jun synthesis and phosphorylation participate in NMDA-induced neuronal cell death.

We have investigated an origin of the superconductivity discovered in boron (B)-doped diamonds by means of 11B-NMR on heteroepitaxially grown (111) and (100) films and polycrystalline film. The characteristic difference of B-NMR spectral shape for the (111Þ and (100) thin films is demonstrated as arising from the difference in the concentration (nB(1)) of boron substituted for carbon. It is revealed from a scaling between a superconducting transition temperature Tc and nB(1) that the holes doped into diamond via the substitution of boron for carbon ar responsible for the onset of superconductivity. The result suggests that the superconductivity in boron-doped diamond is mediated by the electron–phonon interaction brought about a high Debye temperature ˜ 1860 K characteristic for the diamond structure.

The aim of this study was to investigate whether an excitotoxic concentration of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) increases the expression of the phosphorylated cAMP response element-binding protein (p-CREB) and the DNA-binding activity of the cAMP response element (CRE) in rat retina. Intravitreal injection of NMDA was performed in adult male Wistar rats. p-CREB protein levels in the retina were examined by Western blot analysis. DNA-binding activity of CRE in the retina was evaluated by an electrophoretic mobility gel shift assay (EMSA). We confirmed that NMDA induced the reduction of ganglion cells and the inner plexiform layer of the retina. Western blot analysis showed increases in the expression of p-CREB in the retina 12 and 24 h after intravitreal NMDA injection and dimer formation of CREB in the nuclear fraction at 24 h. Increases of DNA-binding activity were observed in the retina 24 h after NMDA injection by EMSA. Our results suggest that phosphorylation of CREB may involved in NMDA-induced excitotoxicity in rat retina. Phosphorylated CREB seems to be the active form and the one that is transcribed.

The ladder-Cu NMR spectrum of a structural disordered single crystal Sr14Cu24O41 (Sr14-B) under a magnetic field H~11 T gradually splits into two spectra with Curie-like broadening as T decreases from TSP~150 K. Short-range (SR) staggered polarization (SP) on the ladder planes, originating from single- hole localization, occurs. The separation of the Sr14-B spectrum DH deviates from the Curie-like T dependence below 20 K. This assures that spontaneous moments appear below TN~20 K in H~11 T

We present an extensive nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) study of the normal state (T>Tc) of an YBa1.93Sr0.07Cu3O6.92 single crystal (Tc=90 K). The NMR data is interpreted using a model for the imaginary part of the dynamical electron spin susceptibility χ″(q,ω) that is consistent with the inelastic neutron scattering (INS) experiments (carried out on the same sample investigated here): the q-dependence is assumed to be Gaussian (commensurate), with short and T independent coherence length ξ. This model enabled us to perform a quantitative analysis of the planar copper spin–lattice and spin–spin relaxation rates which evidenced that a spin pseudogap starts to open at T*≈130 K, confirming the INS results. Moreover, we show that the AF fluctuations contribution to yttrium relaxation is not negligible due to the dipolar coupling of the yttrium with the neighboring copper spins. The main signature of this feature is that a relation KααT1T=const does not hold for the yttrium site at higher temperatures. Our main conclusion is that, in order to explain the yttrium (and the planar oxygen) relaxation coherently with the INS results and the widely accepted one-band picture, the characteristic energy Γ0 of the spin dynamics near q=0 must be strongly T dependent, otherwise the one-band description is not feasible. All the NMR results are interpreted within the ionic model of the hyperfine Hamiltonian taking into account the anisotropy of the g-factor and the static spin susceptibility χs.

Activation of human natural killer (NK) cells involves sequential events including cytokine production and induction of cell surface molecules, resulting in the enhancement of cytolytic activity. To delineate the activation process of NK cells, we generated murine monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) against YT, a human large granular lymphocyte/natural killer (LGL/NK) cell line. Among the mAbs reactive with YT cells, one mAb, termed 2B9, was noted because of the lack of reactivity with most of the human T- and B-cell lines tested. In fresh peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), however, the majority of cells expressing this antigen (Ag) were T cells but not CD16+ nor CD56+ NK cells. Since YT cells showed an activated phenotype expressing interleukin-2 (IL-2) receptor alpha chain, we examined whether 2B9 Ag could be induced on normal human peripheral blood NK cells by cytokines known to activate NK cells. The 2B9 Ag was induced on NK cells by IL-2, IL-12 or IL-15 while no induction was observed by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma). Biochemical analysis showed that anti-2B9 mAb recognized a 115 kDa molecule in YT cells. A cDNA clone encoding the 2B9 Ag was isolated from a cDNA expression library of YT cells and its sequence was identical to CD26 cDNA although it was not of full length. Transient expression of the 2B9 cDNA on COS-7 cells revealed that this cDNA encodes the antigenic epitope(s) recognized by anti-2B9 mAb as well as Ta1, an anti-CD26 mAb. These results showed that the 2B9 Ag is identical to CD26, and demonstrated that CD26 is an activation antigen on CD16+ CD56+ NK cells inducible by IL-2, IL-12 or IL-15.

We examine the intensity noise of laser diodes with optical feedback for several feedback conditions. Three stable feedback conditions have been observed, which are defined as follows: an external mirror length shorter than 15 mm, small and large ratios of mirror to laser-front facet reflectivities. Reduction of the external-cavity length, notably to less than 15 mm, stabilized the laser diode and resulted in low intensity noise. A new theoretical treatment of optical feedback is proposed, wherein the feedback field is taken into account in the boundary condition at the feedback coupling laser facet. Theoretical derivations of the intensity noise of external-cavity feedback laser diodes are in good agreement with measured results.

Magnetism and multiplets for metal-phthalocyanine (MPc) molecules with transition-metals (M) of Mn and Co were investigated based on the constraint density functional theory calculations by imposing density matrix constraint on the d-orbital occupation numbers. For the MnPc, the ground state is found to be the 4Eg state with the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy with respect to the molecular plane, while for the CoPc, the ground state is the 2A1g state with a planar magnetic anisotropy.

- Abstract
We report on an (75)As-NMR study on the Fe-pnictide high-T(c) superconductor Y(0.95)La(0.05)FeAsO(1-y) (Y(0.95)La(0.05)1111) with T(c)=50 K that includes no magnetic rare-earth elements. The measurement of the nuclear-spin lattice-relaxation rate (75)(1/T(1)) has revealed that the nodeless bulk superconductivity takes place at T(c)=50 K while antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations develop moderately in the normal state. These features are consistently described by the multiple fully gapped s(±)-wave model based on the Fermi-surface nesting. Incorporating the theory based on band calculations, we propose that the reason that T(c)=50 K in Y(0.95)La(0.05)1111 is larger than T(c)=28 K in La1111 is that the Fermi-surface multiplicity is maximized, and hence the Fermi-surface nesting condition is better than that in La1111.

The amino acid sequence of the rat 40S ribosomal subunit protein S23 was deduced from the sequence of nucleotides in a recombinant cDNA. Ribosomal protein S23 has 142 amino acids, the NH2-terminal methionine is removed after translation of the mRNA, and a molecular weight of 15,666. Hybridization of the cDNA to digests of nuclear DNA suggests that there are 6 to 13 copies of the S23 gene. The mRNA for the protein is about 650 nucleotides in length. Rat S23 is identical to a human ribosomal protein and is also related to Saccharomyces cerevisiae S28, to Tetrahymena thermophila S12, and to the prokaryotic S12 family of ribosomal proteins.

Recent NQR and NMR experiments on La2-xSrxCuO4 , YBa2Cu3O7 , Tl2Ba2CuO6+y , and other compounds are reviewed. The antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations decrease in the order of La, Y, T1 compounds. In the normal state the T-dependence of (T1T)-1 is considered to follow the Curie- Weiss law at high temperature and the (Ti 7") = const law at low temperature. The T dependence of 1/T1 below Tc suggests strongly d-wave pairing. Correlations of the NQR frequency of 63Cu and 17O with the antiferromagnetic spin fluctuations and the superconducting transition temperature are discussed.

The responses to the magnetic field ( H ) of the superconductivity and the pseudogap in the underdoped high- T c cuprate YBa 2 Cu 4 O 8 ( T c =74 K ) are reported up to 23.2 T based on NMR measurements. For temperatures T⩽15 K , the H - and T -variation of the 63 Cu nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate (1/ T 1 ) is 1/ T 1 ∝ TH and also the Knight shift increases with increasing H . We interpret our results as evidence for H -induced quasiparticle states that extend from the d-wave vortex centers with an ungapped spectrum. Even though H =23.2 T reduces T c by 19 K , no effect is seen on the normal-state pseudogap which persists in the temperature region where the superconductivity is destroyed by the field, suggesting that it is a consequence of strong electron correlations.

28. Spin susceptibility of noncentrosymmetric heavy-fermion superconductor CeIrSi3 under pressure: 29Si Knight-shift study on single crystal

- Abstract
We report 29Si NMR study on a single crystal of the heavy-fermion superconductor CeIrSi3 without an inversion symmetry along the c axis. The 29Si Knight-shift measurements under pressure have revealed that the spin susceptibility for the ab plane decreases slightly below T(c), whereas along the c axis it does not change at all. The result can be accounted for by the spin susceptibility in the superconducting state being dominated by the strong antisymmetric (Rashba-type) spin-orbit interaction that originates from the absence of an inversion center along the c axis and it being much larger than superconducting condensation energy. This is the first observation which exhibits an anisotropy of the spin susceptibility below T(c) in the noncentrosymmetric superconductor dominated by strong Rashba-type spin-orbit interaction.

17 O NMR has been performed between 10 and 360 K on an oriented powder of YBa 2 Cu 3 O 6.65 ( T c =60 K). The temperature dependence of the magnetic hyperfine shift (MHS) tensors has been followed for the O(2,3) and O(4) sites. For O(4) nuclei, the MHS stays constant above T c , whereas for the O(2,3) sites it scales linearly with the macroscopic susceptibility χ m . This demonstrates that the origin of the temperature dependence of χ m is to be found within the CuO 2 plane. Two methods are presented to discriminate between the t - J model and two-band models: (a) the comparison of the temperature dependence of the isotropic K iso and the axial part K ax of the O(2,3) MHS, (b) a scaling between the experimentally measured products K 2 iso T 1 T in 17 O and 89 Y. From the second method, our results indicate the existence of an oxygen 2p-band with a density of states per spin direction of 0.11 to 0.19 eV -1 at -1 .

- Abstract
We report a (29)Si NMR study on the pressure-induced superconductivity (SC) in an antiferromagnetic (AFM) heavy-fermion compound CeIrSi(3) without inversion symmetry. In the SC state at P = 2.7-2.8 GPa, the temperature (T) dependence of the nuclear-spin lattice relaxation rate 1/T(1) below T(c) exhibits a T(3) behavior without any coherence peak just below T(c), revealing the presence of line nodes in the SC gap. In the normal state, 1/T(1) follows a square root T-like behavior, suggesting that the SC emerges under the non-Fermi-liquid state dominated by AFM spin fluctuations enhanced around a quantum critical point. The reason why the maximum T(c) in CeIrSi(3) is relatively high among the Ce-based heavy-fermion superconductors may be the existence of the strong AFM spin fluctuations. We discuss the comparison with the other Ce-based heavy-fermion superconductors.

We report (63,65)Cu- and (19)F-NMR studies on a four-layered high-temperature superconductor Ba(2)Ca(3)Cu(4)O(8)F(2)((0234F(2.0)) with apical fluorine (F(-1)), an undoped 55 K superconductor with a nominal Cu(2+) valence on average. We reveal that this compound exhibits the antiferromagnetism (AFM) with a Néel temperature T(N)=100 K despite being a T(c)=55 K superconductor. Through a comparison with a related trilayered cuprate Ba(2)Ca(3)Cu(4)O(8)F(2)(0233F(2.0)), it is demonstrated that electrons are transferred from the inner plane (IP) to the outer plane (OP) in 0234F(2.0) and 0223F(2.0), confirming the self-doped high-temperature superconductivity (HTSC) having electron and hole doping in a single compound. Remarkably, uniform mixing of AFM and HTSC takes place in both the electron-doped OPs and the hole-doped IPs in 0234F(2.0).

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) can regulate aqueous humor production in the eye and has recently been suggested to play some functional roles in the retina. It has also been reported that ANP increases tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) mRNA levels and intracellular dopamine levels in PC12 cells. The effect of ANP on TH levels and the role of ANP in retinal excitotoxicity remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the effects of ANP on TH expression and dopamine levels in rat retina after intravitreal injection of NMDA. Immunohistochemistry localized natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPRA) in the ganglion cell layer (GCL), the inner nuclear layer (INL) and the outer nuclear layer (ONL) in the rat retina. Quantitative real-time PCR and Western blot analysis showed a dramatic reduction in retinal TH levels 5 days after NMDA injection, while ANP, at a concentration of 10(-4) M, ameliorated this reduction in TH mRNA and TH protein levels. High-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed that NMDA reduced dopamine levels in the retina, and that ANP attenuated this reduction. Moreover, morphological analysis showed that ANP ameliorated NMDA-induced neurotoxicity through NPRA. The ameliorative effect of ANP was inhibited by a dopamine D(1) receptor antagonist. These results suggest that ANP may have a neuroprotective effect through possible involvement of dopamine induction.

- Abstract
A two-staged, uniaxial magnetoresistive effect has been discovered in SrCo6O11 having a layered hexagonal structure. Conduction electrons and localized Ising spins are in different sublattices but their interpenetration makes the conduction electrons sensitively pick up the stepwise field dependence of magnetization. The stepwise field dependence suggests two competitive interlayer interactions between ferromagnetic Ising-spin layers, i.e., a ferromagnetic nearest-layer interaction and an antiferromagnetic next-nearest-layer interaction. This oxide offers a unique opportunity to study nontrivial interplay between conduction electrons and Ising spins, the coupling of which can be finely controlled by a magnetic field of a few Tesla.

- Abstract
We report a site selective Cu-NMR study on underdoped Hg-based five-layered high-Tc cuprate HgBa2Ca4CU5O(12+delta) with a Tc = 72 K. Antiferromagnetism (AFM) has been found to take place at T(N) = 290 K, exhibiting a large antiferromagnetic moment of 0.67-0.69 microB at three inner planes (IP). This value is comparable to the values reported for nondoped cuprates, suggesting that the IP may be in a nearly nondoped regime. Most surprisingly, the AFM order is also detected with M(AFM)(OP) = 0.1 microB even at two outer planes (OP) that are responsible for the onset of superconductivity (SC). The high-Tc SC at Tc = 72 K can uniformly coexist on a microscopic level with the AFM at OP's. This is the first microscopic evidence for the uniform mixed phase of AFM and SC on a single CuO2 plane in a simple environment without any vortex lattice and/or stripe order.

Transcription factors of the nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappaB)/Rel family may be involved in neuronal cell death or survival. We examined the role of NF-kappaB p65 in N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA)-induced neurotoxicity in the rat retina. Western blot analysis showed that elevated levels of retinal NF-kappaB p65 protein at days 1 and 5 after intravitreal NMDA injection. Immunohistochemistry localized increased NF-kappaB p65 immunoreactivity in the ganglion cell layer (GCL) and the inner nuclear layer (INL) after NMDA injection especially in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs), displaced amacrine cells, and amacrine cells. Concomitant with the early increase in NF-kappaB p65 protein levels, there was an increase in NF-kappaB DNA binding activity after NMDA injection as shown by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA). These increases in NF-kappaB p65 protein levels and NF-kappaB DNA binding activity were totally abolished by simultaneous injection of NF-kappaB p65 antisense oligodeoxynucleotide (AS ODN). A partial but significant protective effect on the inner retina was noted when the AS ODN was given together with NMDA as shown by morphological analysis, morphometry of cells in the GCL and morphometry of inner plexiform layer thickness as well as quantitative real-time PCR of Thy-1 mRNA levels. These results suggest that activated NF-kappaB p65 may participate in NMDA-induced retinal neuronal cell death and that inhibition of NF-kappaB activation such as the use of AS ODN may be a viable neuroprotective strategy for protective RGCs and other inner retinal neurons.

RhoA, a key protein involved in cytoskeleton regulation modulating neurogenesis and neural plasticity, has been implicated in a variety of cellular functions including the modulation of N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor activity. We examined its possible involvement in NMDA-induced excitotoxicity in the retina, and evaluated the neuroprotective effect of fasudil, a Rho kinase inhibitor, in this model of neurotoxicity. RhoA protein levels in NMDA-treated retinas were assessed by Western blot analysis and localized by immunohistochemistry. Fasudil (10(-6)-10(-4) M together with 4 x 10(-2) M NMDA) was given intravitreally and its effect was evaluated by counting the number of cells in the ganglion cell layer (GCL), measuring the thickness of the inner plexiform layer (IPL), and measuring retinal Thy-1 mRNA levels at 5 days after injection. Western blot analysis showed a transient increase in the level of retinal RhoA and ROCKII proteins at 1 day after NMDA injection, and that this increment was significantly prevented by simultaneous injection of fasudil. Immunohistochemistry showed that NMDA induced a substantial increase in RhoA immunoreactivity in the GCL and the IPL. Fasudil injection reduced cell loss in the GCL and the reduction in IPL thickness after NMDA injection. The reduction in Thy-1 mRNA levels by NMDA was also significantly attenuated by concomitant injection of fasudil. These results suggest that RhoA and ROCKII are upregulated and may be involved in NMDA-induced retinal neurotoxicity, and that fasudil is neuroprotective against glutamate-related excitotoxicity.

- Abstract
We report on novel antiferromagnetic (AFM) and superconducting (SC) properties of noncentrosymmetric CePt3Si through measurements of the 195Pt nuclear spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T(1). In the normal state, the temperature (T) dependence of 1/T(1) unraveled the existence of low-lying levels in crystal-electric-field multiplets and the formation of a heavy-fermion (HF) state. The coexistence of AFM and SC phases that emerge at T(N)=2.2 K and T(c)=0.75 K, respectively, takes place on a microscopic level. CePt3Si is the first HF superconductor that reveals a peak in 1/T(1) just below T(c) and, additionally, does not follow the T3 law that used to be reported for most unconventional HF superconductors. We remark that this unexpected SC characteristic may be related to the lack of an inversion center in its crystal structure.

We report a precise $^{59}$Co nuclear quadrupolar resonance (NQR) measurement on the recently discovered cobalt oxyhydrate Na$_{0.35}$CoO$_{2}$$\cdot y$H$_{2}$O superconductor from $T$=40 K down to 0.2 K. We find that in the normal state the spin-lattice relaxation rate $1/T_1$ follows a Curie-Weiss type temperature ($T$) variation, $1/T_1T=C/(T-\theta)$, with $\theta$=-42 K, suggesting two-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin correlations. Below $T_c$=3.9 K, $1/T_1$ decreases with no coherence peak and follows a $T^n$ dependence with $n\simeq$2.2 down to $\sim$2.0 K but crosses over to a $1/T_1\propto T$ variation below $T$=1.4 K, which suggests non s-wave superconductivity. The data in the superconducting state are most consistent with the existence of line nodes in the gap function.

- Abstract
We report novel magnetic properties in the slightly hole-doped Mott-insulator La(2-x)SrxCuO4 via the La-nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) measurements. At x=0.018, the antiferromagnetic (AFM) La-NQR spectrum affected by internal fields comes out as the temperature decreases below T(N) approximately 150 K, whereas the nonmagnetic one persists to be observed down to a temperature T(f) approximately 20 K at which the nuclear-relaxation rate has a pronounced peak. This demonstrates that the phase separation of nonmagnetic and AFM phases occurs between T(f) and T(N). The novel phase separation is suggested as due to the partial destruction of the AFM phase caused by mobile holes via the formation of an extended spin-singlet state between Cu-derived spins and hole spins.

- Abstract
We report a careful 59Co nuclear quadrupolar resonance measurement on the recently discovered cobalt oxyhydrate Na0.35CoO2.yH(2)O superconductor from T=40 K down to 0.2 K. We find that in the normal state the spin-lattice relaxation rate 1/T(1) follows a Curie-Weiss type temperature (T) variation, 1/T(1)T=C/(T-theta), with theta=-42 K, suggesting two-dimensional antiferromagnetic spin correlations. Below T(c)=3.9 K, 1/T(1) decreases with no coherence peak and follows a T(n) dependence with n approximately 2.2 down to approximately 2.0 K but crosses over to a 1/T(1) proportional to T variation below T=1.4 K, which suggests non-s-wave superconductivity. The data in the superconducting state are most consistent with the existence of line nodes in the gap function.

- Abstract
We report systematic measurements of ac susceptibility, nuclear-quadrupole-resonance spectrum, and nuclear-spin-lattice-relaxation time (T1) on the pressure (P)-induced heavy-fermion superconductor CeRhIn5. The temperature (T) dependence of 1/T(1) at P=1.6 GPa has revealed that antiferromagnetism (AFM) and superconductivity (SC) coexist microscopically, exhibiting the respective transition at T(N)=2.8 K and T(MF)(c)=0.9 K. It is demonstrated that SC does not yield any trace of gap opening in low-lying excitations below T(onset)(c)=2 K, but T(MF)(c)=0.9 K, followed by a T(1)T=const law. These results point to the unconventional characteristics of SC coexisting with AFM. We highlight that both of the results deserve theoretical work on the gapless nature in the low-lying excitation spectrum due to the coexistence of AFM and SC and the lack of the mean-field regime below T(onset)(c)=2 K.

Blind identification (BI) is a method to estimate a system of a channel with a priori knowledge of the transmitted signals and the received signals. This paper presents the method to estimate the impulse response of a channel using second-order statistics (SOS) of the cyclostationary (CS) received signals. In the paper, we consider the case in which the received signals are oversampled at the rate 1/mT (m=2,3, /spl middot//spl middot//spl middot/, n) when the received signals are sampled at the baud rate. We estimate the impulse response of a channel using the method in the double-sampling. Next, we estimate the impulse response of a channel using a result that extended the method in the sampling rate 1/mT(m=3, /spl middot//spl middot//spl middot/, n). Here, we need to calculate an inverse matrix of the matrix constructed using both the auto-correlation and the cross-correlation function in estimating the impulse response of a channel. In this paper, we take notice of the cyclic property of the matrix and apply periodic Toeplitz system (PTS) to get the inverse of the matrix.

The equalization using the traditional blind estimation is based on the channel outputs and knowledge of the probabilistic property of input signal. But it is difficult for conventional implementation with on-line processing because the traditional algorithms need high-order momentum. We present a new method using the orthogonal projection, in order to enable the on-line processing of blind equalization. First, we estimate the characteristics of the channel using both the skewness and the kurtosis of the output of the channel. Secondly, we will design an equalizer using the orthogonal projection onto the received signal space. The proposed method is based on designing an equalizer parameter so that the matrix P/sub N,N/=W/sub N,N/H/sub N,N/ may be the orthogonal projection matrix onto the received signal space, where W/sub N,N/ and H/sub N,N/ demote the impulse response matrix of an equalizer to be designed and that of the channel respectively. The impulse response matrix of an equalizer is basically expressed with Moore-Penrose inverse matrix. The proposed blind equalization algorithm can be implemented with on-line processing, it is expected that the convergence characteristics of the proposed equaliser are better than that of the traditional device.

A novel structure for a quasi-phase-matched-second harmonic generation (QPM-SHG) device with a high-index-clad waveguide is shown. The periodic domain inversion was fabricated in LiTaO/sub 3/ using selective proton-exchange followed by quick heat treatment, which has advantages of uniform periodicity over large area, and is a good combination with a low loss proton-exchanged waveguide. To achieve strong confinement and efficient overlap between fundamental and SH wave, we have proposed a high-index-clad waveguide, Using a Nb/sub 2/O/sub 5/ film as the clad layer, harmonic blue light of 10 mW at a wavelength of 425 nm was obtained for a conversion efficiency of 280% W. Recently, to achieve further improvement in conversion efficiency and output power, we focused our attention on X-cut MgO:LiNbO/sub 3/, which has advantages of larger nonlinear coefficient, higher damage threshold, and potential to achieve low-loss coupling with the laser diode of transverse-electric mode oscillation. We have succeeded in fabricating a first-order QPM waveguide in X-cut MgO:LiNbO/sub 3/ utilizing two-dimensional high-voltage application that produces deep domains with uniform periodicity over long interaction length. Using this domain structure with the high-index-clad proton-exchanged waveguide, efficient harmonic blue light of 5.5 mW at 434 nm wavelength was generated for a normalized conversion efficiency of 1200% W.cm/sup 2/.

49. Fermi-liquid ground state in the n-type Pr(0.91)LaCe(0.09)CuO(4-y) copper-oxide superconductor

- Abstract
We report nuclear magnetic resonance studies on the low-doped n-type copper-oxide Pr(0.91)LaCe(0.09)CuO(4-y) (T(c)=24 K) in the superconducting state and in the normal state uncovered by the application of a strong magnetic field. We find that when the superconductivity is removed the underlying ground state is the Fermi liquid state. This result is at variance with that inferred from previous thermal conductivity measurement and appears to contrast with that in p-type copper oxides with a similar doping level where high-T(c) superconductivity sets in within the pseudogap phase. The data in the superconducting state are consistent with the line-node gap model.

- Abstract
We report Sb-NQR results which evidence a heavy-fermion (HF) behavior and an unconventional superconducting (SC) property in Pr(Os4Sb12 with T(c)=1.85 K. The temperature (T) dependence of nuclear-spin-lattice-relaxation rate, 1/T(1), and NQR frequency unravel a low-lying crystal-electric-field splitting below T0 approximately 10 K, associated with Pr3+(4f(2))-derived ground state. In the SC state, 1/T(1) shows neither a coherence peak just below T(c) K nor a T3-like power-law behavior observed for anisotropic HF superconductors with the line-node gap. The isotropic energy gap with its size Delta/k(B)=4.8 K seems to open up across T(c) below T(*) approximately 2.3 K. It is surprising that Pr(Os4Sb12 looks like an isotropic HF superconductor-it may indeed argue for Cooper pairing via quadrupolar fluctuations.
