TL;DR: In this article, the hydrogen isotopes are exchanged between liquid water and hydrogen gas by exposing the hydrogen while in contact with one another to a catalyst body comprising a Group VIII metal and completely covered by a sealing coating of a resin which is impermeable to liquid water but permeable to hydrogen gas and water vapour.
Abstract: 1342368 Isotope exchange ATOMIC ENERGY OF CANADA Ltd 5 Jan 1971 [28 Jan 1970] 475/71 Heading C1A [Also in Divisions B1-B2] Hydrogen isotopes are exchanged between liquid water and hydrogen gas by exposing the water and hydrogen while in contact with one another to a catalyst body comprising a Group VIII metal and completely covered by a sealing coating of a resin which is impermeable to liquid water but permeable to hydrogen gas and water vapour. The resin may be a silicone resin, a hydrocarbon polymer or a fluorocarbon polymer.

TL;DR: Results indicate that a dynamic, radially arranged microtubule array is not required for the functional polarization of CTLs and suggest that a component of the pericentriolar material may play a key role in effecting MTOC orientation.
Abstract: Immunofluorescence staining, electron microscopy, and (51Cr) cytolytic release assays are used to investigate the effects of taxol and taxol/hyperthermia treatments on the microtubule organization and cytolytic activity of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). A 4 h treatment of CTLs with 1 microM taxol results in an extensive reorganization of the microtubule system to form one to a few large microtubule bundles that extend from the centrosome. The Golgi apparatus is not disrupted by this treatment and remains associated with the microtubule organizing centre (MTOC). This microtubule reorganization has no effect on the ability of CTLs to orient their MTOC towards a bound target cell, nor on their cytolytic activity. In control CTLs, not treated with taxol, a mild hyperthermia treatment (42 degrees C, 30 min) results in an aggregation of the pericentriolar material, a loss of MTOC orientation, an inhibition of cytolytic activity, and a disorganization of the microtubule system [Knox et al.: Exp. Cell Res. 194:275-283, 1991]. In contrast, in taxol-treated CTLs the stabilized microtubule bundles are unaffected by such hyperthermia treatment; however, the other effects of hyperthermia appear identical in control and taxol-treated CTLs. These results indicate that a dynamic, radially arranged microtubule array is not required for the functional polarization of CTLs and suggest that a component of the pericentriolar material may play a key role in effecting MTOC orientation.

TL;DR: Correlation functions selected by cuts on the total momentum of the neutron pair give a quantitative characterization of the cooling of a compound nucleus.
Abstract: Two-neutron relative-momentum correlation functions have been measured in the 130 MeV {sup 18}O+{sup 26}Mg reaction. Differences in the longitudinal and transverse correlation functions, observed for the first time for neutrons, allow an independent determination of the spatial extent and the time scale for decay of the {sup 44}Ca compound nucleus. A comparison with theoretical calculations indicates a radius of 4.4{plus_minus}0.3 fm and an average neutron emission time scale of 1100{plus_minus}100 fm/{ital c} for {sup 44}Ca at 100 MeV excitation energy. Correlation functions selected by cuts on the total momentum of the neutron pair give a quantitative characterization of the cooling of a compound nucleus. {copyright} {ital 1995} {ital The} {ital American} {ital Physical} {ital Society}.
