Elastic recoil detection analysis of transmission layout (T-ERDA) has been used to determine the ratios of deuterium to hydrogen content in mylar and PPS films. The determined values of (1.64--1.65)$\times 10^{-4}$ are only slightly higher than the Standard Mean Ocean Water value ($1.55\cdots \times 10^{-4}$), indicating that no appreciable concentration of D occurs in the production process of these films. Because of its one-dimensional layout and thereby simplified analysis procedure, T-ERDA might be advantageous for common use in the analysis of deuterium in precious solid samples such as meteorites or those taken from a planet by a space probe. Furthermore, the present T-ERDA has provided the differential cross sections of the $^{32}$S($\alpha, {\rm p})^{35}$Cl nuclear reaction at a recoil angle of 0$^{\circ}$, which contribute to the database of nuclear reactions., Comment: 21 pages, 9 figures

For assessment of the potential of the Beppu Bay sediments as a Global boundary Stratotype Section and Point (GSSP) candidate for the Anthropocene, we have integrated datasets of 99 proxies. The datasets for the sequences date back 100 years for most proxy records and 1300 years for several records. The cumulative number of occurrences of the anthropogenic fingerprint reveal unprecedented increases above the base of the 1953 flood layer at 64.6 cm (1953 CE), which coincides with an initial increase in global fallout of 239Pu+240Pu. The onset of the proliferation of anthropogenic fingerprints was followed by diverse human-associated events, including a rapid increase in percent modern 14C in anchovy scales, changes in nitrogen and carbon cycling as recorded by anchovy δ15N and δ13C, elevated pollution of heavy metals, increased depositions of novel materials (spheroidal carbonaceous particles, microplastics, polychlorinated biphenyls), the occurrence of hypoxia (Re/Mo ratio) and eutrophication (biogenic opal, TOC, TN, diatoms, chlorophyll a), unprecedented microplankton community changes (compositions of carotenoids, diatoms, dinoflagellates), abnormally high spring air temperatures as inferred from diatom fossils, and lithological changes. These lines of evidence indicate that the base of the 1953 layer is the best GSSP level candidate in the stratigraphy at this site.

Ion beam irradiation of Si induces the formation of fine structures on the surface by sputtering. In this study, the energy dependence of the formed structures was investigated by electron microscopy using fast C60 cluster ion beams. The size of the structures increases with increasing energy.
