ELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE AND CONCENTRATION FLUCTUATIONS IN SILICA-BASED GLASSES (1982)

Ravaine, D., Wright, A.

A model is proposed for the interpretation of the circular arcs observed for the electrical impedances of ion - conducting glasses when plotted in the complex plane. By fitting with experimental...

NEUTRON DIFFRACTION STUDIES OF RARE EARTH IONS IN GLASSES (1982)

Wright, A., Etherington, G., Erwin Desa, J., Sinclair, R.

The environment of the rare earth ions in vitreous Sm2O3-Al2O3-GeO2 has been studied using the neutron diffraction anomalous dispersion technique and that in vitreous NaF-DyF3-BeF2 by isotopic...

NUCLEATION AND GROWTH OF CUBIC ICE IN LiCl.n D2O GLASSES (1982)

Elarby Aouizerat, A., Jal, J., Dupuy, J., Chieux, P., Wright, A., Parreins, R.

The controlled nucleation of ice in metastable LiCl.n D2O glassy samples has been followed by neutron scattering. The conditions were determined for cubic ice Ic nucleation as well as for its...

Some aspects of the economics of nitrogen storage farming in New Zealand (1972)

Philpott, B. F., Greig, I. D., Wright, A.

In this paper we are concerned with some economic aspects of the use of artificial nitrogen fertilisers in New Zealand agriculture. With the prospect of much cheaper nitrogen fertiliser in the future...

THE APPLICATION OF SIMULATION TECHNIQUES TO THE STUDY OF GRAZING SYSTEMS

Wright, A., Dent, J.B.

Decision making studies in agriculture are often made difficult by the complex and dynamic nature of bio-economic systems. Simulation is one of the newer systems research techniques which as yet has...

Review of uptake of interventions to reduce mother to child transmission of HIV by women aware of their HIV status.

Lyall, E. G., Stainsby, C., Taylor, G. P., Ait-Khaled, M., Bingham, S., Evans, J. A., ...

OBJECTIVES: To examine the change in uptake of interventions to reduce transmission of HIV from mothers to infants from January 1994 to July 1997. DESIGN: Review of mother-infant pairs who presented...

Opposing behavioural alterations in male and female transgenic TGF alpha mice: association with tumour susceptibility.

Hilakivi-Clarke, L. A., Arora, P. K., Clarke, R., Wright, A., Lippman, M. E., Dickson, R. B.

Psychosocial factors are thought to influence risk and survival from cancer. We have previously studied specific behaviours in transgenic male CD-1 MT42 mice, which overexpress the gene encoding...

MDA435/LCC6 and MDA435/LCC6MDR1: ascites models of human breast cancer.

Leonessa, F., Green, D., Licht, T., Wright, A., Wingate-Legette, K., Lippman, J., ...

We have established a novel ascites tumour model (MDA435/LCC6) from the oestrogen receptor-negative, invasive and metastatic MDA-MB-435 human breast cancer cell line. MDA435/LCC6 cells grow as both...
