Radioactive In has been incorporated into oriented thin films of YBa₂Cu₃O₇₋δ during a thermal coevaporation process. The hyperfme technique of perturbed γγ-angular correlation spectroscopy shows that 60% of the indium substitutes at a single site in the superconductor. We obtain spectra with reasonable statistics from 2 mCi of starting material,...
Despite concern expressed two decades ago, there has been little recent discussion about continuing declines of migrant bird populations. Monitoring efforts have been focused almost exclusively on the breeding grounds. We describe the long-term decline of a winter-resident bird population in Guánica Commonwealth Forest, Puerto Rico, one of the last...
