The complete nucleoprotein (NP) gene sequences of the Sendai virus Fushimi and 6/94 strains were determined. For both viruses an open reading frame of 524 amino acids can be predicted for the NP ...proteins. By comparing the sequences with others reported in the literature, the 5' noncoding region and the middle third of the coding region were found to be highly conserved. The carboxyl terminal part carries nine amino acid changes and a completely different sequence of the carboxyl terminus with a seven amino acid extension. This carboxyl terminus of the Sendai virus NP protein was confirmed using tryptic peptide sequence analysis.
Small-angle correlations of Proton pairs produced in central Ni+Ni collisions at a beam energy of 1.93 AGeV are investigated with the FOPI detector System at GSI Darmstadt. A well-defined emission ...source is selected by triggering on central events which comprise about 8% of the total cross section. Simultaneous comparison of longitudinal and transverse correlation functions with the predictions of the Koonin model allows to unravel the space-time ambiguity of the emission process. Taking into account the strong collactive expansion of the participant zone, which introduces a reduction of the extracted source radius of more than 30% r.m.s. radius and emission time parameters of Rrms = ( 4.2 ± 1.2) fm and trms = (11+7-5) fm/c are extracted, respectively. In contrast, the analysis of the angle-integrated correlation function gives an upper limit Rrms = (7.0 ± 1.4) fm of the source radius.
