Low Temperature Opacities

Previous computations of low temperature Rosseland and Planck mean opacities from Alexander & Ferguson (1994b) are updated and expanded. The new computations include a more complete equation of state with more grain species and updated optical constants. Grains are now explicitly included in thermal equilibrium in the equation of state calculation, which allows for a much wider range of grain c...

Low Temperature Resistivity

The temperature dependence of electrical resistivity was measured for three materials: a conductor (copper), a semiconductor (a carbon resistor), and a doped semiconductor (a pn junction). As expected, the resistance of the copper sample decreased with temperature and the resistance of the carbon resistor increased with temperature. The temperature coefficient of resistance of Cu was calculated...

Low-temperature spectrophotometry

Photoreactions of the fourth rhodopsin-like pigment, phoborhodopsin (pR480), of Hulobacrerium halobium were studied by low-temperature spectrophotometry. Upon irradiation of pR480 at -80 as well as 170°C with 436 nm light, a new intermediate having a difference absorption maximum at about 520 nm was produced. We designate this intermediate ‘P520’. Prolonged irradiation caused the formation of a...
