The KamLAND full-volume calibration system (2009)

Berger, B. E., Busenitz, J., Classen, T., Decowski, M. P., Dwyer, D. A., Elor, G., ...

We have successfully built and operated a source deployment system for the KamLAND detector. This system was used to position radioactive sources throughout the delicate 1-kton liquid scintillator...

Precision measurement of neutrino oscillation parameters with KamLAND (2008)

Abe, S., Ebihara, T., Enomoto, S., Furuno, K., Gando, Y., Ichimura, K., ...

Measurement of Neutrino Oscillation with KamLAND: Evidence of Spectral Distortion (2005)

Araki, T., Eguchi, K., Enomoto, S., Furuno, K., Ichimura, K., Ikeda, H., ...

We present results of a study of neutrino oscillation based on a 766 ton/year exposure of KamLAND to reactor antineutrinos. We observe 258 [overline nu ]e candidate events with energies above 3.4 MeV...

High-K negative parity states in 184Os (2002)

Shizuma, T., Stevenson, P. D., Walker, P. M., Toh, Y., Hayakawa, T., Oshima, M., ...

High-spin states in 184Os have been studied using the 170Er(18O,4n) reaction at a beam energy of 85 MeV. Several new negative parity levels including a 48-ns Kpi = (18-) isomer have been identified....

Quadrupole Deformation of Barium Isotopes (1998)

Sugita, M., Uchiyama, K., Furuno, K.

The B(E2:0_1^+ -> 2_1^+) values of the Ba isotopes (Z=56) exhibit a sharp increase in deformation as the neutron numbers approach the mid-shell value of N=66. This behavior is anomalous because the...

First study of rapidity gaps in e+e- annihilation (1996)

Abe, K, Abt, I, Ahn, C J, Akagi, T, Allen, N J, Ash, William W, ...

We present the first study of rapidity gaps in e+e- annihilations using Z0 decays collected by the SLD experiment at SLAC. Our measured rapidity gap spectra all exponentially with increasing gap size...

Test of the flavor independence of strong interactions (1996)

Abe, K., Abt, I., Ahn, C. J., Akagi, T., Allen, N. J., Ash, W. W., ...

We present a comparison of the strong couplings of light (u, d, and s), c, and b quarks determined from multijet rates in flavor-tagged samples of hadronic Z0 decays recorded with the SLC Large...

Measurements of Rb with impact parameters and displaced vertices (1996)

Abe, K., Abt, I., Ahn, C. J., Akagi, T., Allen, N. J., Ash, W. W., ...

We present measurements of Rb using the SLD at the SLC. The analyses use 2D and 3D impact parameter tags and a displaced 3D vertex tag which all exploit the small size and stability of the e+e-...

Radioactivity of Water and Air in Misasa Spa, Japan (1984)

Moninaga, H., Mifune, M., Furuno, K.

Misasa Spa is one of the most highly radioactive hot springs in Japan, the waters of which contain mainly 222Rn (437 � 132 Bq.litre-1). Radon contents of indoor air of private houses and health...

Activation of protein breakdown and prostaglandin E2 production in rat skeletal muscle in fever is signaled by a macrophage product distinct from interleukin 1 or other known monokines.

Goldberg, A L, Kettelhut, I C, Furuno, K, Fagan, J M, Baracos, V

During sepsis or after injection of endotoxin into rats, there is a large increase in muscle protein breakdown and prostaglandin E2 (PEG2) production. Prior studies showed that partially purified...

The activation of protein degradation in muscle by Ca2+ or muscle injury does not involve a lysosomal mechanism.

Furuno, K, Goldberg, A L

By use of different inhibitors, we distinguished three proteolytic processes in rat skeletal muscle. When soleus muscles maintained under tension were exposed to the calcium ionophore A23187 or were...
