Experiment of nitrox saturation diving with trimix excursion. (1/397)

Depth limitations to diving operation with air as the breathing gas are well known: air density, oxygen toxicity, nitrogen narcosis and requirement for decompression. The main objectives of our experiment were to assess the decompression, counterdiffusion and performance aspect of helium-nitrogen-oxygen excursions from nitrox saturation. The experiment was carried out in a wet diving stimulator with "igloo" attached to a 2-lock living chamber. Four subjects of two teams of 2 divers were saturated at 25 msw simulated depth in a nitrogen oxygen chamber environment for 8 days, during which period they performed 32 divers-excursions to 60 or 80 msw pressure. Excursion gas mix was trimix of 14.6% oxygen, 50% helium and 35.4% nitrogen, which gave a bottom oxygen partial pressure of 1.0 bars at 60 msw and 1.3 at 80 msw. Excursions were for 70 min at 60 msw with three 10-min work periods and 40 min at 80 msw with two 10-min work periods. Work was on a bicycle ergometer at a moderate level. We calculated the excursion decompression with M-Values based on methods of Hamilton (Hamilton et al., 1990). Staged decompression took 70 min for the 60 msw excursion and 98 min for 80 msw, with stops beginning at 34 or 43 msw respectively. After the second dive day bubbles were heard mainly in one diver but in three divers overall, to Spencer Grade III some times. No symptoms were reported. Saturation decompression using the Repex procedures began at 40 msw and was uneventful: Grade II and sometimes III bubbles persisted in 2 of the four divers until 24 hr after surfacing. We conclude that excursions with mixture rich in helium can be performed effectively to as deep as 80 msw using these procedures.  (+info)

Comparison of two new methods for the measurement of lung volumes with two standard methods. (2/397)

BACKGROUND: The two most commonly used methods for the measurement of lung volumes are helium dilution and body plethysmography. Two methods have been developed which are both easier and less time consuming to perform. Mathematical modelling uses complex calculations from the flow-volume loop to derive total lung capacity (TLC), and the nitrogen balance technique uses nitrogen from the atmosphere to calculate lung volume in a similar way to helium dilution. This study was designed to compare the two new methods with the two standard methods. METHODS: Sixty one subjects were studied, 23 with normal lung function, 17 with restrictive airway disease, and 21 with obstructive ventilatory defects. Each subject underwent repeated measurements of TLC by each of the four methods in random order. Reproducible values were obtained for each method according to BTS/ARTP guidelines. Bland-Altman plots were constructed for comparisons between the methods and paired t tests were used to assess differences in means. RESULTS: Bland-Altman plots showed that the differences between body plethysmography and helium dilution fell into clinically acceptable ranges (agreement limits +/-0.9 l). The agreement between mathematical modelling or the nitrogen balance technique and helium dilution or body plethysmography was poor (+/-1.8-3.4 l), especially for subjects with airflow obstruction. CONCLUSIONS: Neither of the new methods agrees sufficiently with standard methods to be useful in a clinical setting.  (+info)

Influence of gas density on simulated snoring. (3/397)

According to a recent theoretical model, snoring is related to instability of the upper airway (UA). Factors promoting UA instability include increased gas density. The aim of this study was to test the influence of gas density on simulated snoring production and supraglottic resistance. Supraglottic pressure and flow rate (V') were measured in 10 healthy seated subjects during simulated snoring. Subjects breathed three different gas mixtures: Helium-oxygen, He 79%-O2 21% (He-O2); air; and sulphur hexafluoride-oxygen, F6S 79%-O2 21% (F6S-O2) administered in a random order. Supraglottic resistance (Rsg) was measured on its linear range during quiet breathing and V' was measured at the onset and middle of snoring. Linear Rsg increased and V' conversely decreased with gas density. These data are in agreement with predictions of a mathematical model of the upper airway showing that snoring occurs at lower flow rates when gas density is increased.  (+info)

Helium and sulfur hexafluoride bolus washin in short-term microgravity. (4/397)

We performed single-breath washout (SBW) tests in which He and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) were inspired throughout the vital capacity inspirations or were inhaled as discrete boluses at different points in the inspiration. Tests were performed in normal gravity (1 G) and in up to 27 s of microgravity (microG) during parabolic flight. The phase III slope of the SBW could be accurately reconstructed from individual bolus tests when allowance for airways closure was made. Bolus tests showed that most of the SBW phase III slope results from events during inspiration at lung volumes below closing capacity and near total lung capacity, as does the SF6-He phase III slope difference. Similarly, the difference between 1 G and microG in phase III slopes for both gases was entirely accounted for by gravity-dependent events at high and low lung volumes. Phase IV height was always larger for SF6 than for He, suggesting at least some airway closure in close proximity to airways that remain open at residual volume. These results help explain previous studies in microG, which show large changes in gas mixing in vital capacity maneuvers but only small effects in tidal volume breaths.  (+info)

Intrapulmonary gas mixing and the sloping alveolar plateau in COPD patients with macroscopic emphysema. (5/397)

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease patients, especially those with emphysema, show steep slopes of the alveolar plateau (S). This study tested the hypothesis that continued gas exchange between poorly and well-ventilated lung units by means of collateral ventilation would contribute to S in these patients. Nine young volunteers, nine older volunteers and 11 patients with macroscopic emphysema performed wash-out tests with helium (He) and sulphur hexafluoride (SF6). S was determined for breaths 1-5 (range 1), and for breaths between 95% and 98% of complete wash-out (range 2). An unequal ventilation index (UVI) was defined as the ratio between the estimated mean alveolar pressure and the end tidal pressure (PET) of each tracer gas, calculated over range 2. Over the same range, a phase III ratio was calculated by dividing PET by the estimated pressure at Fowler dead space. In all groups of subjects, the S for He and SF6 were greater for range 2 than for range 1 (p< or =0.012). In the emphysema patients, the correlations between S and UVI were 0.72 for He (p=0.012) and 0.81 for SF6 (p=0.002), while the mean phase III ratios were 1.7 for He and 2.4 for SF6, much less than their theoretical maxima. It was concluded that in patients collateral ventilation may account for only a small part of the increase in the alveolar plateau slope between ranges 1 and 2, and that this increase was mainly caused by unequal ventilation in combination with sequential emptying of lung units. The degree of sequential emptying, however, was modest compared with its full potential.  (+info)

Single-shot diffusion measurement in laser-polarized Gas. (6/397)

A single-shot pulsed gradient stimulated echo sequence is introduced to address the challenges of diffusion measurements of laser polarized 3He and 129Xe gas. Laser polarization enhances the NMR sensitivity of these noble gases by >10(3), but creates an unstable, nonthermal polarization that is not readily renewable. A new method is presented which permits parallel acquisition of the several measurements required to determine a diffusive attenuation curve. The NMR characterization of a sample's diffusion behavior can be accomplished in a single measurement, using only a single polarization step. As a demonstration, the diffusion coefficient of a sample of laser-polarized 129Xe gas is measured via this method.  (+info)

Hyperbaric bradycardia and hypoventilation in exercising men: effects of ambient pressure and breathing gas. (7/397)

We sought to determine whether hydrostatic pressure contributed to bradycardia and hypoventilation in hyperbaria. Eight men were studied during exercise at 50, 150, and 250 W while breathing 1) air at 1 bar, 2) helium-oxygen (He-O(2)) at 5.5 bar, 3) sulfur hexafluoride-oxygen (SF(6)-O(2)) at 1.3 bar, and 4) nitrogen-oxygen (N(2)-O(2)) at 5.5 bar. Gas densities were pairwise identical in 1) and 2), and 3) and 4), respectively. Increased hydrostatic pressure to 5.5 bar resulted in a modest but significant relative bradycardia on the order of 6 beats/min, in both the absence [1) vs. 2), P = 0. 0015] and presence [3) vs. 4), P = 0.029] of gases that are both denser than normal and mildly narcotic. In contrast, ventilatory responses appeared not to be influenced by hydrostatic pressure. Also, the combined exposure to increased gas density and mild-to-moderate inert gas narcosis at a given hydrostatic pressure [1) vs. 3), 2) vs. 4)] caused bradycardia (P = 0.032 and 0.061, respectively) of similar magnitude as 5.5-bar hydrostatic pressure. At the same time there was relative hypoventilation at the two higher workloads. We conclude that heart rate control, but not ventilatory control, is sensitive to relatively small increases in hydrostatic pressure.  (+info)

A model of extravascular bubble evolution: effect of changes in breathing gas composition. (8/397)

Observations of bubble evolution in rats after decompression from air dives (O. Hyldegaard and J. Madsen. Undersea Biomed. Res. 16: 185-193, 1989; O. Hyldegaard and J. Madsen. Undersea Hyperbaric Med. 21: 413-424, 1994; O. Hyldegaard, M. Moller, and J. Madsen. Undersea Biomed. Res. 18: 361-371, 1991) suggest that bubbles may resolve more safely when the breathing gas is a heliox mixture than when it is pure O(2). This is due to a transient period of bubble growth seen during switches to O(2) breathing. In an attempt to understand these experimental results, we have developed a multigas-multipressure mathematical model of bubble evolution, which consists of a bubble in a well-stirred liquid. The liquid exchanges gas with the bubble via diffusion, and the exchange between liquid and blood is described by a single-exponential time constant for each inert gas. The model indicates that bubbles resolve most rapidly in spinal tissue, in adipose tissue, and in aqueous tissues when the breathing gas is switched to O(2) after surfacing. In addition, the model suggests that switching to heliox breathing may prolong the existence of the bubble relative to breathing air for bubbles in spinal and adipose tissues. Some possible explanations for the discrepancy between model and experiment are discussed.  (+info)

Helium-4 - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaHelium-4 - Simple English Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Helium-4 (also written 4He) is an isotope of helium. It is the most common isotope of helium in the universe. Out of all the helium on the Earth, 99.99986% are helium-4. The nucleus (the center) of a helium-4 atom is also known as the alpha particle. Helium-4 is made of 2 protons (the part of an atomic nucleus with a positive charge), 2 neutrons (the part of an atomic nucleus with a negative charge) and 2 electrons (the part of an atom that goes around the nucleus with a negative charge).. Many helium-4 on Earth is produced from alpha decay of heavy elements. In the Sun and the whole universe, most helium-4 is made during the Big Bang, the event that created the universe. This Big Bang helium-4 is known as the primordial helium. Helium-4 is also made in nuclear fusion at the center of stars. Primordial helium is not much on Earth, because most of it had escaped from the Earth when it was created and the temperatures were very high. Helium-4 on Earth was made through radioactive decay (when ...

AU - Housinger, T. A.. AU - Greenhalgh, David G. AU - Warden, G. D.. PY - 1995. Y1 - 1995. N2 - A mixture of helium and oxygen is less dense than room air. This property allows the gas to flow with less turbulence past airway narrowings, thereby decreasing airway resistance and increasing the volume of gas exchange. Previous studies demonstrated that airway obstruction that is manifested by stridor was present in 92% of patients requiring reintubation. Eight pediatric patients with burns in whom postextubation stridor or retractions unresponsive to racemic epinephrine developed, were treated with heliox (helium and oxygen) for 28 ± 5 hours with an initial helium concentration between 50% and 70%. Of the eight patients treated with heliox, only two experienced respiratory distress and required reintubation. ...

Innovative Laser Trap Captures Most Neutron-Rich Substance Made On Earth: Helium-8 - Universe TodayInnovative Laser Trap Captures Most Neutron-Rich Substance Made On Earth: Helium-8 - Universe Today
So, how do you trap a helium-8 isotope? The answer is far from simple, but Argonne physicist Peter Mueller has found a solution. Using the GANIL cyclotron facility in northern France, helium-4, 6, and occasionally helium-8 isotopes can be generated. This is one of the only cyclotrons is the world with enough energy to generate the helium-8 isotope. It is all very well creating the particle, but to separate helium-8 from its other helium isotope siblings requires a clever and highly accurate laser prison for the heavier helium isotope to fall in to, whilst allowing the other, lighter, isotopes to fly straight through.. Acting as the bars of prison gates, six lasers are accurately aligned at such spacing that only isotopes with the dimensions of helium-8 are trapped. When aligned, helium-8 will fall between them, and should the isotope try to escape, repulsion forces keep the isotope still. Once enough time is allowed to pass (about one helium-8 atom is generated every two minutes) the team ...

Applications Developments with the Helium Ion MicroscopeApplications Developments with the Helium Ion Microscope
The helium ion microscope is offering new windows into nano-scale imaging. Unique sample interaction dynamics allow new types of sample information to be gathered. Some fundamental advantages conferred by probing a surface with a helium ion beam are the high contrast due to the sensitive material dependence of the secondary electron (SE) yield, the surface sensitivity arising from the low energy of the SEs, and the ability to image low atomic weight materials due to a greater electronic cross-section of ions. The low mass of helium allows imaging via the collection of backscattered ions. There are also secondary benefits to helium ion microscopy. Ions beams allow easy imaging of non-conducting samples through the use of charge neutralization. The Orionâ„¢ tool is equipped with a low energy flood gun for this purpose and has been demonstrated effective even at high image magnification. The low mass of the helium ion minimizes beam induced damage - indeed on some materials sputtering is not detected even

An Introduction to Helium Ion Microscopy and its Nanotechnology ApplicationsAn Introduction to Helium Ion Microscopy and its Nanotechnology Applications
A new imaging technology based on a scanning helium ion beam has been realized. This technology has several advantages over the traditional SEM. Due to the very high source brightness, and the shorter wavelength of the helium ions, it is possible to focus the ion beam to a smaller probe size relative to a SEM. Also, as the ion beam interacts with the sample, it does not suffer from a large excitation volume, and hence provides sharp images on a wide range of materials. Compared to a SEM, the secondary electron yield is quite high - allowing for imaging with currents as low as 1 femtoamp. The detectors provide information-rich images which offer topographic, material, crystallographic, and electrical properties of the sample. In contrast to other ion beams, there is no discernable sample damage due to relatively light mass of the helium ion. Sample images will be presented.

Helium Gas | Southern Gas Services LimitedHelium Gas | Southern Gas Services Limited
Helium gas is a colourless, odourless, tasteless, non-toxic gas. It is relatively rare in our atmosphere equating to approximatley 5 ppm by volume. Helium is formed by the radioactive decay of heavy elements such as thorium and uranium. This radiogenic helium is trapped with natural gas deposits and can be concentrated up to 7% by volume. Commercial extraction involves the use of semi-permeable membranes and low-temperature fractional distillation. Helium is transported in a liquid form at temperatures of -269 degrees Celcius.. Helium is mainly used in its liquid form (cryogenics) for the cooling of superconducting magnets found in medical scanning instruments.. Inhaling helium can be dangerous, helium displaces oxygen needed for normal respiration and should not be attempted by any person. ...

Ultra high purity gases usually cost more than gases of lower purities due to the process involved in making the gases. One such method of purification uses filters of decreasing pore size to remove larger particles as the gas enters, and smaller particles as the gas continues through, such that enough impurities are removed from the gas to achieve Ultra High Purity.. Speciality Gases provides certified ultra pure gases i.e. Nitrogen, Argon, Helium, Zero Air, Hydrogen to be used as carrier gas in Gas Chromatographs (GCs) and other analytical instruments.. Our ultra pure gases have stringent high-purity specifications. We achieve consistent high-purity through extensive gas cylinder preparation, dedication of gas cylinders for gas service and quality control at every step.. By using our High purity Gases you will optimize cost and quality of analytical results, regardless of application and significantly extend the life of GC columns, detectors and instruments.. ...

A Study of Radiation Damage Produced in Thinned Specimens of 316 Stainless Steel by Energetic Helium IonsA Study of Radiation Damage Produced in Thinned Specimens of 316 Stainless Steel by Energetic Helium Ions
The evolution of radiation damage from the bubble formation stage to the surface blistering or exfoliation stage or both in 316 stainless steel irradiated with 80-keV helium ions was observed dynamically in high-voltage electron microscope. Exfoliation, which occurred at temperatures ≤570°C, in the electron transparent regions was observed to differ from bulk exfoliation in that it usually occurred in roughly circular patches. The diameter of these patches increased with increasing specimen thickness. More bulklike sheet exfoliations occurred in the thicker regions. The process started in the thicker regions and proceeded to the thinner regions. All exfoliation occurred on the beam-entrance side. Specimens irradiated at 650°C exhibited surface damage primarily consisting of blisters. The damage varied significantly with specimen thickness. In the thinnest regions, entire grains were bent so that the grain surface was concave on the beam-entrance side and convex on the beam-exit side. In ...

Pharmaceutical Microbiology: Helium ions reveal how viruses attack bacteriaPharmaceutical Microbiology: Helium ions reveal how viruses attack bacteria
The novel technique, called helium ion microscopy (HIM), was used to image hard-to-see interaction between bacteria and viruses infecting bacteria, or so called bacteriophages. These phages are currently actively considered as a novel smart weapon against bacterial infections, which are becoming more and more difficult to treat with traditional antibiotics. The images demonstrated in clear images the different stages of how the phages in question attacked the bacteria (E. coli), for example showing the process where the virus has latched onto the bacterial surface, grabbing it with a tentacle like structure, and being in the process of injecting its genome into the bacterial cell ...

The elastic scattering of protons by helium-4, and the elastic scattering of helium-3 by helium-4The elastic scattering of protons by helium-4, and the elastic scattering of helium-3 by helium-4
In the present work two nuclei have been investigated by the elastic scattering of charged particles of spin 1/2 from spin 0 nuclei. In the first experiment protons were scattered from He4 yielding information on the compound nucleus Li5. A phase shift analysis of the angular distributions has been done. The results of experiments from 1 to 18 mev of proton bombarding energy have been collected, and the resulting phase shifts have been interpreted in the light of the dispersion theory. In the second experiment He3 nuclei were scattered from He 4 giving information about the compound nucleus Be7. The second excited state of Be7 has been investigated, and the level parameters have been determined. The non-resonant phase shifts show a somewhat anomalous behaviour in the energy range investigated, and these phase shifts have been qualitatively interpreted in terms of other levels in Be7. The phase shift analysis of these experiments has been done on an IBM 650 computer, and as a by-product of the ...

Helium-3 occurs as a primordial nuclide, escaping from the Earths crust into the atmosphere and into outer space over millions of years. Helium-3 is also thought to be a natural nucleogenic and cosmogenic nuclide, one produced when lithium is bombarded by natural neutrons. Those are released by spontaneous fission and by nuclear reactions with cosmic rays. Some of the helium-3 found in the terrestrial atmosphere is also a relic of atmospheric and underwater nuclear weapons testing, conducted by the three big nuclear powers before 1963. Most of this comes from the decay of tritium (hydrogen-3), which decays into helium-3 with a half life of about 12.3 years. Furthermore, some nuclear reactors (landbound or shipbound) periodically release some helium-3 and tritium into the atmosphere, especially whenever something goes wrong. The nuclear reactor disaster at Chernobyl released a huge amount of radioactive tritium into the atmosphere, and smaller problems cause smaller releases. Furthermore, ...

The spectroscopic measurement of helium ion velocity distribution functions in a low temperature plasma is problematic for a number of reasons. First and foremost is the difficulty in accessing the UV and soft x-ray transitions to the ground state. Conventional laser induced fluorescence on ions in plasmas is routinely performed in argon, neon, xenon, and barium. Two-photon absorption laser induced fluorescence (TALIF) on neutrals has been demonstrated in hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen plasmas. We have successfully performed LIF on helium atoms and have had some hints of success with laser absorption spectroscopy on excited states of helium ions, the n $=$ 5 to n $=$ 6 transition in the infrared (1012 nm). Here we report a new approach using TALIF to access the n $=$ 2 to n $=$ 6 transition of singly ionized helium. The fluorescence path at 656 nm completes the three-level sequence. To obtain the electron temperatures necessary to create a sufficient population of metastable helium ions trapped ...

Air spirometry and helium and oxygen (He-O2) spirometry techniques were compared. He-O2 spirometry was used to detect early occupational lung disease by studying functional impairments in the small airways in flax workers and coal miners. In flax workers, air and He-O2 flow volume curves showed decreased flow rates in a high dust exposure group after a work shift. No change was noted in controls.

Summary A measurement of the 2S-2P transition frequencies (Lamb shift) in the muonic helium-3 and 4 ions by means of laser spectroscopy is proposed. This will lead to a ten times more accurate determination of the root-mean-square (rms) charge radii of the He-3 and He-4 nuclei. The radius of the magnetic moment distribution inside the He-3 nucleus will result from the hyperfine structure in muonic 3He. In the muonic helium ion, a single negative muon orbits the helium nucleus. The muon is a point-like lepton, just as the electron, except it is about 200 times heavier. This gives a factor of 200^3 = 10^7 enhancement of nuclear finite size effects on the energy levels of muonic vs. regular (electonic) Helium ions. Muonic helium is the ideal sytem to study the He nuclear size. The CREMA project has four main aims: (1) Solve the proton size puzzle created by our recently completed muonic hydrogen project [R. Pohl et al., The size of the proton, Nature 466, 213 (2010)]. Our tenfold ...

We investigated whether the biostimulatory effects of HeNe irradiation result from enhancement of keratinocyte proliferation or motility. HeNe effects on keratinocyte motility were evaluated by irradiating a wounded culture with 0.8 J/cm2 3 times over a 20-h period. At 20 h post-irradiation, videocinemicroscopy and sequential quantitative measurements of the leading edge were taken over a 6-h period. There was a significant difference in migration of the leading edge in irradiated wounds compared to non-irradiated wounded controls (12.0 μm/h vs 4.0 μm/h, p , 0.0001). To determine if the increase in migration observed in irradiated cultures resulted from ...

For example, a Helium/Oxygen mix would quickly become 100% Oxygen on the ground no matter what planet you were on. This is not to mention a Xenon/Oxygen mixture would knock you out nearly instantly, much like Nitrous Oxide does and breathing Argon/Oxygen mixtures is considered doping by the Olympic committee. On atmospheric scales these gases could possibly separate into layers with no O2 at sea level since Argon is about 25% times heavier. However, CO2 still mixes well in our own atmosphere even though it is about 50% heavier than the Nitrogen/Oxygen mixture which makes up the majority of our air. Nitrogen and Oxygen are very close in weight so they mix well. As you well know, plants still thrive in the mountains until it gets too cold. Water Vapor behaves differently in all these different mixes too. In gases that it can diffuse quickly in, like Helium, you would probably never develop clouds on that planet. However, I wont take any of this into account and I will leave elevation at zero in ...

Lung ventilation was mapped in seven healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats (433 ± 24 g) using hyperpolarized 129Xe magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 3.0 T, and validated with hyperpolarized 3He MRI under similar ventilator conditions. Ventilation maps were obtained using flip angle variation for offset of RF and relaxation (FAVOR) which is a multiple breath imaging technique that extracts the fractional ventilation parameter, r, on a pixel-by-pixel basis from the dynamic signal enhancement. r is defined as the fractional refreshment of gas per breath. Under the ventilator conditions used in this work, whole-lung measurements of fractional ventilation obtained using hyperpolarized 129Xe were not significantly different from those obtained using hyperpolarized 3He (p = 0.8125 by a Wilcoxon matched pairs test). Fractional ventilation gradients calculated in the superior/inferior (S/I) and anterior/posterior (A/P) directions obtained using hyperpolarized 129Xe were not significantly different from ...

The Biotechnology High Performance Computing Software Applications Institute (BHSAI) of the Department of Defense (DoD) is studying airflow in the lungs using computational fluid dynamics in order to characterize disease-specific airflow patterns and provide useful information for medical applications. To validate these models, they are seeking to obtain experimental data of airflow in human lungs, both healthy and diseased. An assessment of airflow can be obtained by using hyperpolarized noble gas (HNG) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) or, more specifically, hyperpolarized helium-3 (HHe) MRI in conjunction with flow-encoding schemes that are well-established in conventional proton MRI. Four chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients and four healthy subjects will undergo pulmonary function tests (PFTs), computed tomography (CT) scan covering the mouth, neck, and chest, and hyperpolarized helium 3 MRI. Before and after the MRI scans, three spirometry readings will be taken while the ...

TY - JOUR. T1 - Estimated Solar Wind-Implanted Helium-3 Distribution on the Moon. AU - Johnson, Jeffrey R.. AU - Swindle, Timothy D.. AU - Lucey, Paul G.. PY - 1999/2/1. Y1 - 1999/2/1. N2 - Among the solar wind-implanted volatiles present in the lunar regolith, 3He is possibly the most valuable resource because of its potential as a fusion fuel. The abundance of 3He in the lunar regolith at a given location depends on surface maturity, the amount of solar wind fluence, and titanium content, because ilmenite (FeTiO3) retains helium much better than other major lunar minerals. Surface maturity and TiO2 maps from Clementine multispectral data sets are combined here with a solar wind fluence model to produce a 3He abundance map of the Moon. Comparison of the predicted 3He values to landing site observations shows good correlation. The highest 3He abundances occur in the farside maria (due to greater solar wind fluence received) and in higher TiO2 nearside mare regions.. AB - Among the solar ...

Effect of heliox on lung dynamic hyperinflation, dyspnea, and exercise endurance capacity in COPD patients | CPX International...Effect of heliox on lung dynamic hyperinflation, dyspnea, and exercise endurance capacity in COPD patients | CPX International...
We tested the hypothesis that heliox breathing, by reducing lung dynamic hyperinflation (DH) and dyspnea (Dys) sensation, may significantly improve exercise endurance capacity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease [n = 12, forced expiratory volume in 1 s = 1.15 (SD 0.32) liters]. Each subject underwent two cycle ergometer high-intensity constant work rate exercises to exhaustion, one on room air and one on heliox (79% He-21% O2). Minute ventilation (VE), carbon dioxide output, heart rate, inspiratory capacity (IC), Dys, and arterial partial pressure of CO2 were measured. Exercise endurance time increased significantly with heliox [9.0 (SD 4.5) vs. 4.2 (SD 2.0) min; P , 0.001]. This was associated with a significant reduction in lung DH at isotime (Iso), as reflected by the increase in IC [1.97 (SD 0.40) vs. 1.77 (SD 0.41) liters; P , 0.001] and a decrease in Dys [6 (SD 1) vs. 8 (SD 1) score; P , 0.001].

More About Heliox and Bronchiolitis | American Academy of PediatricsMore About Heliox and Bronchiolitis | American Academy of Pediatrics
To the Editor.-. The study by Martinón-Torres et al1 using heliox therapy in infants with acute bronchiolitis makes me question the diagnosis of bronchiolitis in those infants. It appears from the study that the use of heliox helped to decrease the work of breathing in these infants. It is conceivable that this was achieved by its property of having lower density. It is also known that heliox has higher viscosity, which affects the laminar flow. Laminar flow is the predominant flow in the peripheral airways or bronchioles. Therefore, patients with true bronchiolitis where the inflammation and obstruction is in the peripheral airways will have decreased flow with heliox and increased work of breathing. Because this didnt happen in these infants, one could … ...

Helium is a chemical element; its atomic symbol is He. It is a colorless, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, and nearly inert monatomic that heads the noble gas series in the periodic table. Its atomic number is 2 and its boiling and melting points are the lowest among the elements. It exists only as a gas except in extreme conditions. Extreme conditions are also needed to create the small handful of helium compounds, which are all unstable at standard temperature and pressure. Its most abundant stable isotope is helium-4 and it has a rare stable isotope, helium-3. The behavior of liquid helium-4s two different states-helium I and helium II-is important to researchers studying quantum mechanics (in particular the phenomenon of superfluidity) and those looking at the effects that near absolute zero temperatures have on matter (such as superconductivity). Helium is the second most abundant element in the known Universe and second lightest element in the periodic table. In the modern Universe almost ...

The following is an imaginary tale of a young, blond-haired hipster drawn to the Red Sea for a deep dive. He chose to dive on the wall at Ras Mohammed on the Eastern Shore of the Sinai, which descends quickly down to a thousand feet and beyond. That was his target-1,000 feet.. The previous year he bought a rebreather so gas usage should not be a problem for his deep dive. He also sprang for the cost of helium-oxygen diluent. Trimix would have been cheaper, but he spared no expense. Nothing but the best. To that end, he used loose-fill, fine grain Sodalime in his CO2 scrubber canister.. These were his thoughts as he descended.. Free-falling at three hundred feet. Never been this deep before. The waters getting cold, so the warm gas from the canister feels good.. 800 feet. Wow, the gas is thicker now.. When he reached the bottom, he realized something wasnt right. He sucked harder and harder, feeling his full face mask collapsing around his face with each inhalation.

Introduction. Helium-oxygen (He/O2) mixtures are known to facilitate breathing due to their low density compared to air, and therefore, may be valuable to treat obstructive lung diseases such as asthma.. Objectives. The objective is to study the effect of air vs. He/O2 on the aerosol deposition of a nebulized radiolabel in stable, moderate asthmatic subjects.. Methods. 16 evaluable male subjects (6 asthmatics, 10 healthy volunteers) were studied. Each subject performed two inhalations which differed by a single controlled parameter (particle size, ventilation, or carrier gas). 2 of the asthmatics inhaled aerosols with either air or He/O2 (78%He/22%O2), and aerosol deposition was imaged with 3D-SPECT.. To characterize the sites of aerosol deposition, the 3D Central to Peripheral ratios, C/P, were calculated for right and left lungs.. Results. The effect of He/O2 on aerosol deposition was very visible for one of the asthmatic subjects (A06) with a large decrease in central deposition (Right ...

The reason that they dont appear right next to each other on the periodic table is that H shares properties with the others in the first column, and He shares properties with others in the last column. Unfortunately, H is a kind of weird atom, because even though it only has 1 valence electron, it could easily become a positive ion (losing an electron, like the 1st column) or a negative ion (gaining an electron, like the second to last column) H shares a lot of traits with many different columns on the periodic table, so scientists basically decided to put it in the first column, just for classification purposes.

Artemis Project: Lunar Helium-3 as an Energy Source,Artemis Project: Lunar Helium-3 as an Energy Source,
The names of the ingredients for nuclear fusion reactions -- deuterium, tritium, isotopes of helium -- sound complicated, but really these are only variations on substances found in everyday life. Well assume you understand that atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. Electrons are the very lightweight, negatively charged bits that buzz around the edges of an atom. Regular chemical reactions work by trading and sharing electons among atoms. For instance, when you burn a piece of paper in air, the chemical reaction involves some carbon atoms in the paper sharing electrons with some oxygen atoms from the air. The reaction forms carbon dioxide gas while the electons give off energy, as heat and light, when they change their orbits. Protons and neutrons make up an atoms nucleus. In this discussion, were concerned with rearranging the nucleus of an atom; hence the term nuclear reaction. Generally, the neutrally charged neutrons keep the positively charged protons from fighting ...

The US Tritium and helium-3 stockpile sizes are classified, because they give a hint as to how many US nuclear weapons are still functional. According to Wikipedia approximately 150 kilograms of it (He3) have resulted from decay of US Tritium production since 1955. One could assume a similar quantity has been accumulated in the ex-USSR, and perhaps additionally from other thermonuclear powers (UK, France, China). Today, the worlds supply of Helium-3 can be counted in hundreds of kilograms, and the value of 100 kg would be $150M. So it may be assumed that the total stockpile value today is roughly about half a billion USD. The US DOE does sell He3 commercially, but how much of the present stockpile has actually been sold on the open market is an open question. Assuming that someone were to start at the level of collecting 100kg of He3 from the Moon and assume its value would be $150M, the cost of soft landing even a small probe on to the lunar surface may easily cost that much or more.

I think if you review the attached article in Post #2, you will see that some of the steps in the CNO cycles occur due to the spontaneous emission of positrons from unstable nuclei produced after fusion with a proton. This process occurs over a period of time (i.e., there is a measurable half-life associated with it), and it fits with the definition of radioactive decay as it is understood in non-stellar processes ...

The moon has always been a source of myth, and now we have some modern ones. Many people will swear blind, without the slightest justification, that the Apollo missions gave us Teflon and the instant fruit drink Tang. New calls for a moon base are routinely supported now with the claim that we can mine the lunar surface for nuclear-fusion fuel in the form of helium-3, a rare commodity on Earth. BBCs Horizon bought the idea, and its been paraded in front of the US House of Representatives. But as physicist Frank Close pointed out recently, there is no sound basis to it. None of the large fusion projects uses helium-3 at all, and the suggestion that it would be a cleaner fuel simply doesnt work, at least without a total reactor redesign. Thats not even to mention the cost of it all. But no straw is too flimsy that advocates of human spaceflight will fail to grasp it ...

BACKGROUND:. This longitudinal study was initiated in 1975 when a stratified random sample of children, ages 5-9 years and living in the East Boston area of the City of Boston, was selected. Annual lung function tests were performed on the children and their families and questionnaires administered on respiratory illness history, smoking history, disability from cardiac disease, age of menarche in female children and demographic data such as type of heating, type of fuel for cooking, types of air purifying devices, and area of residence. A subset of the cohort had repeated measures of eucapneic hyperventilation with cold air. The cohort was also studied with helium-oxygen protocol. Analysis focused on validation of existing models, including the autoregressive model, for lung growth in children and adolescents and the decline in growth in adults.. DESIGN NARRATIVE:. The longitudinal study was renewed in 1995. The overall aim of this continuing investigation was to evaluate risk factors ...

In situ DNA transfer to chicken embryos by biolisticsIn situ DNA transfer to chicken embryos by biolistics
4Embrapa Suínos e Aves, Concórdia, SC, Brasil. ABSTRACT Fertilized chicken eggs were bombarded with a biolistic device. Transient expression of the lacZ gene under the control of a human cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter was assessed after in situ gene transfer using this approach. The influence of different pressures, vacuum levels and particles was tested. Survival rate improved as particle velocity decreased, but resulted in lower levels of expression. The best survival and expression were obtained with gold particles, a helium gas pressure of 600 psi and a vacuum of 600 mmHg. Under these conditions, all bombarded embryos showed b-galactosidase activity, indicating that this was an effective method for transformation of chicken embryos. INTRODUCTION DNA transfer methods have led to significant advances in exogenous gene expression. Transgenic animals have been used as models for studying gene functions and for producing very marketable proteins. Microinjection has been the most studied form of ...

  • The study demonstrates that metallic helium is less rare than was previously thought, and is produced under the kinds of conditions present at the centers of giant gaseous planets such as Jupiter and Saturn, mixing with metal hydrogen to form a liquid metal alloy. (nsf.gov)
Decay2
  • The trace of the isotope helium-3 on Earth is attributable to the negative beta decay of the rare hydrogen-3 isotope ( tritium ). (britannica.com)
  • Furthermore, helium-3 is connected inse- parably with tritium via the tritium decay. (springer.com)
Helios2
  • He named the element helium from helios, the Greek word for sun. (dictionary.com)
  • The name is derived from the Greek, 'helios' meaning sun, as it was in the sun's corona that helium was first detected. (wikiversity.org)
Tritium4
  • Substituting helium-3 for tritium significantly reduces neutron production, making it safe to locate fusion plants nearer to where power is needed the most, large cities. (popularmechanics.com)
  • Operator Cindy Sizemore installs a tank to be filled with helium-3, a byproduct of the tritium manufacturing process. (augusta.com)
  • Savannah River Site has replaced and upgraded a 40-year-old system for separating and capturing helium-3, a byproduct of the site's role in the manufacture of tritium for nuclear bombs. (augusta.com)

Shortages2
  • In recent years helium shortages had started growing acute. (aps.org)
  • Problems at helium refineries in Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas, as well as start up delays with new refining facilities in Qatar in 2006, led to shortages and rationing. (reuters.com)
Byproduct2
  • Helium used for industrial purposes is a byproduct of natural gas production, and the Texas Panhandle is the United States' helium capital. (popularmechanics.com)
  • Almost every known helium reserve on the planet was discovered by accident , and the helium was merely a byproduct of natural gas harvesting. (cnbc.com)
Heavier2
  • The football filled with helium didn't go as far as the normal football, since the normal ball was heavier it had more momentum and was able to go farther. (halfbakery.com)
  • The amount of the heavier Helium-4 lost by this method appears to be far short of the amount produced. (infidels.org)
Avert3
  • A bill to avert the looming 'helium cliff' was first introduced in the House in February, followed by a corresponding Senate bill in late April. (aps.org)
  • LONDON, March 27 (Reuters) - Bipartisan bills introduced into the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate aim to avert the imminent shutdown of the Federal Helium Reserve, which provides a third of all the gas consumed worldwide, and develop a proper market to avoid a long-term crunch in supplies of one of the world's most critical raw materials. (reuters.com)
  • Setting the 'hot air' jokes aside, when senators voted to pass bipartisan legislation to avert a helium crisis Thursday, they used the helium revenue to pay for an assortment of other priorities. (rollcall.com)
Universe3
  • This suggests that helium behaves as a metal, at least at the highest pressures encountered in Jupiter and perhaps over a wider range of pressures in the many, often much hotter, planets of Jupiter's mass and larger that are now evidently common in the universe ( 5 ). (pnas.org)
  • Helium constitutes about 23 percent of the mass of the universe and is thus second in abundance to hydrogen in the cosmos. (britannica.com)
  • But there is plenty of Helium here on Earth, and it has nothing to do with Helium anyplace else in the rest of the Universe. (scienceblogs.com)
Society's1
  • This is a game changer for the future security of society's helium needs and similar finds in the future may not be far away. (eurekalert.org)
Earth10
  • Once we run out of helium on earth, there aren't a lot of great options for obtaining more. (techdirt.com)
  • On Earth, helium is mainly mixed with natural gas. (stardate.org)
  • In this study, Jeanloz and Lars Stixrude, earth sciences professor at University College London, took a closer look at what happens to helium under such extreme conditions. (redorbit.com)
  • Extracting helium-3 from the moon and returning it to Earth would, of course, be difficult, but the potential rewards would be staggering for those who embarked upon this venture. (popularmechanics.com)
  • For some time, helium was believed to exist only in the Sun. However, in 1882, Italian physicist Luigi Palmieri detected helium on Earth when analyzing lava from Mount Vesuvius after it erupted in that year. (universetoday.com)
  • From the birth of the Solar System, there's practically no Helium left on Earth. (scienceblogs.com)
  • The discovery of traces of helium on earth was first announced in 1895. (hmdb.org)
  • Can a computer simulation show that helium compounds exist on Earth? (uncommondescent.com)
  • Diveena Danabalan, of Durham University's Department of Earth Sciences, said: 'We show that volcanoes in the Rift play an important role in the formation of viable helium reserves. (eurekalert.org)
  • The history of the creation of elements on earth such as Helium is described and illustrated with colorful cartoons. (thefreedictionary.com)
Experiments2
  • Helium diffusion experiments are often used to help interpret information retrieved from U-Th/He thermochronometric experiments. (wikipedia.org)
  • The experiments also showed that in the case of helium II, the pressure drop across the gap was proportional to the square of the velocity of flow, which means that the flow must have been turbulent. (nature.com)
18951
  • Helium was discovered in 1895 by Sir William Ramsey in London, UK, and independently by Per Theodor Cleve and Nils Langlet in Uppsala, Sweden. (wikiversity.org)
