    Structure and composition of the superconducting phase in alkali iron selenide Ky_yFe1.6+x_{1.6+x}Se2_2

    We use neutron diffraction to study the temperature evolution of the average structure and local lattice distortions in insulating and superconducting potassium iron selenide Ky_yFe1.6+x_{1.6+x}Se2_2. In the high temperature paramagnetic state, both materials have a single phase with crystal structure similar to that of the BaFe2_2As2_2 family of iron pnictides. While the insulating Ky_yFe1.6+x_{1.6+x}Se2_2 forms a 5×5\sqrt{5}\times\sqrt{5} iron vacancy ordered block antiferromagnetic (AF) structure at low-temperature, the superconducting compounds spontaneously phase separate into an insulating part with 5×5\sqrt{5}\times\sqrt{5} iron vacancy order and a superconducting phase with chemical composition of Kz_zFe2_{2}Se2_2 and BaFe2_2As2_2 structure. Therefore, superconductivity in alkaline iron selenides arises from alkali deficient Kz_zFe2_{2}Se2_2 in the matrix of the insulating block AF phase.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figure

    Determination of population structure and stock composition of chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) in Russia determined with microsatellites

    Variation at 14 microsatellite loci was examined in 34 chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) populations from Russia and evaluated for its use in the determination of population structure and stock composition in simulated mixed-stock fishery samples. The genetic differentiation index (Fst) over all populations and loci was 0.017, and individual locus values ranged from 0.003 to 0.054. Regional population structure was observed, and populations from Primorye, Sakhalin Island, and northeast Russia were the most distinct. Microsatellite variation provided evidence of a more fine-scale population structure than those that had previously been demonstrated with other genetic-based markers. Analysis of simulated mixed-stock samples indicated that accurate and precise regional estimates of stock composition were produced when the microsatellites were used to estimate stock compositions. Microsatellites can be used to determine stock composition in geographically separate Russian coastal chum salmon fisheries and provide a greater resolution of stock composition and population structure than that previously provided with other techniques
