Temps de cohérence d'un condensat de Bose–Einstein dans un gaz isolé harmoniquement piégé

We study the condensate phase dynamics in a low-temperature equilibrium gas of weakly interacting bosons, harmonically trapped and isolated from the environment. We find that at long times, much longer than the collision time between Bogoliubov quasi-particles, the variance of the phase accumulated by the condensate grows with a ballistic term quadratic in time and a diffusive term affine in time. We give the corresponding analytical expressions in the limit of a large system, in the collisionless regime and in the ergodic approximation for the quasi-particle motion. When properly rescaled, they are described by universal functions of the temperature divided by the Thomas–Fermi chemical potential. The same conclusion holds for the mode damping rates. Such universality class differs from the previously studied one of the homogeneous gas.

多孔活性自燃金属的光谱辐射特性研究

多孔活性金属材料因为内部存在大量的孔隙，大大地增加了与空气的接触面积，使得其在空气中的燃烧较为猛烈，燃烧温度迅速上升。其燃烧过程属于固体燃烧的范畴，较为复杂。以镁为例，通过建立燃烧模型，来研究多孔活性金属的光谱辐射特性。首先，建立氧气总消耗量与活性金属剩余质量的关系，研究氧气在活性金属孔隙内的扩散浓度关系，通过求解活性金属热平衡方程得到活性金属燃烧过程中温度与时间的关系式，进而得到活性金属的峰值光谱辐射强度表达式；然后，将模型计算的仿真结果与红外热像仪测得的实验结果对比，结果表明，模型的计算结果与实验结果相一致，误差在了10%以内；最后，通过建立的燃烧模型来研究活性金属燃烧规律以及其光谱辐射特性，解决了高空、高速下的活性金属光谱辐射强度难以实验获得的问题，大大减小了实验成本与时间。分别对比不同时间活性金属箔片在1～3，3～5以及8～12 μm波段下的辐射强度，得出活性金属燃烧时的辐射强度主要集中在3～5 μm波段的结论。研究结果表明：自燃金属最大燃烧温度随高度的增加逐渐下降，随气流速度的增加先增加后减小，在速度为30 m·s-1时，温度达到最大；自燃金属的光谱辐射强度在2～6 μm波段达到最大。该模型也可以用来研究其他活性金属的燃烧特性。     

A new characteristic approach for incompressible thermo‐flow in Cartesian and non‐Cartesian grids

A virtual‐characteristic approach is developed for thermo‐flow with finite‐volume methodology in which a multidimensional characteristic (MC) scheme is applied along with artificial compressibility. To obtain compatibility equations and pseudo‐characteristics, energy equation is taken into account in the MC scheme. With this inherent upwinding of convective fluxes, no artificial viscosity is required even at high Reynolds numbers. Another remarkable advantage of the MC scheme lies in its faster convergence rate with respect to the averaging scheme that is found to exhibit substantial delays in convergence. As benchmarks, forced and mixed convections in a cavity and in flow over cylinder and between parallel plates are examined for a wide range of Reynolds, Grashof, and Prandtl numbers. The MC and averaging schemes are applied for simulation purposes. Results show the better performance of the MC scheme in forced and mixed convections. Results confirm the robustness of the MC scheme in terms of accuracy and convergence. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Influence of growth temperature and post-annealing on an n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction diode

We report on an n-ZnO/p-GaN heterojunction diode fabricated from zinc oxide (ZnO) films at various growth temperatures (450, 500, 550, and 600 °C) by RF sputtering. The films were subsequently annealed at 700 °C in N₂ ambient. To investigate the influence of the growth temperature of n-ZnO films, the microstructural, optical, and electrical properties were measured using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence (PL), and Hall measurements. The XRD pattern showed the preferred orientation along the c-axis (002) regardless of growth temperature. The PL spectra showed a dominant sharp near-band-edge (NBE) emission. Current–voltage (I–V) curves showed excellent rectification behavior. The turn-on voltage of the diode was observed to be 3.2 V for the films produced at 500 °C. The ideality factor of ZnO film was observed to be 1.37, which showed the best performance of the diode.     

The identification of the vibration control system parameters designed for continuous miner machines

The Continuous Miner machines are exposed to time dependent loads during normal operation of the rock cutting process. These loads cause vibrations, which have a negative influence on the whole structure of the machine. This phenomenon can be eliminated by applying passive or active vibration control systems (VCS). Generally these systems are coupled with additional elements, which provide dispersion or transfer energy. The energy thus acquired can also reinforce the intended function such as rock cutting operation in the case of mining machines. The objective of this paper is to present the method of numerical identification of VCS parameters for Continuous Miner machines. The main function of the presented system is to reduce displacement of cutting drum by using elastic element joined to machine chassis and applying appropriate algorithm of control of the angular velocity of cutting drum. The method described improves efficiency of mining and increases durability of machine. In order to determine mechanical and control parameters of VCS the genetic algorithm optimisation method conjugated with numerical modal analysis was used. Finally the transient dynamic analysis was performed for the full-scale model of Continuous Miner in order to verify VCS in normal working condition.     

生物质与烟煤混合灰熔融特性影响因素的研究

为探究气氛、混合比及残炭含量对生物质与煤混合灰熔融特性的影响,将松木屑灰与乌海烟煤灰按不同质量比混合,采用智能灰熔点仪测定各混合灰样在不同气氛下的灰熔融温度,X射线衍射仪从矿物质演变角度分析混合灰熔融温度变化的原因。结果表明,由于铁尖晶石和铁橄榄石的生成,使混合灰的熔融温度在弱还原性气氛下比氧化性气氛下低,且差值的大小与混合灰中Fe含量有关;随松木屑灰含量的增加,钙铝黄长石、镁黄长石、白榴石等低温共熔物的生成量增加,使混合灰的熔融温度降低;此外,由于Fe-C共熔体(Fe_xC_y)的生成、灰锥局部还原性气氛及残炭的"骨架"作用,使混合灰的熔融温度随煤灰中残炭含量的增加呈现先升高后降低再升高的趋势。     

SPECTRAL CHARACTERISTICS OF FREE AND LINKED PYRENE-TYPE CHROMOPHORES IN SOLUTION,POLYMER MATRICES,AND INTERPENETRATING NETWORKS

Monomers, 1-pyrenylmethyl methacrylate (PyMMA), 1-pyrenylbutyl methacrylate (PyBMA), 4-(1-pyrenyl)methoxymethyl styrene (PyMMS) and allyl-(1-pyrenylmehtyl) ether (PyMAE), with pyrene as chromophore, were prepared. Their spectral properties (absorption, emission and emission decay) in solution, and doped or bonded in polymer matrices and complex polymer systems as interpenetrating polymer networks (IPN), were investigated. Spectral properties of pyrene-containing monomers doped in polystyrene (PS), polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), polyvinylchloride (PVC), polyethylene (PE) and grafted on PE as well as copolymerized in buthylmethacrylate-co-styrene copolymer (BMA-co-S) have been compared. Absorption and emission spectra of pyrene type probes in solution and in IPN matrices exhibit typical absorption of the pyrene moiety. For IPN with grafted probes on PE, the absorption is slightly shifted to red wavelength. For monomers, PyMMA, PyBMA and PyMAE grafted to PE, the shape of the emission spectrum depends on the wavelength of excitation. The ratio of intensity of the vibrational band, I₁/I₃, (I₁ peak at 377 nm and I₃ peak at 388 nm) has been a quite useful indicator of polarity of IPN. The relative quantum yields of fluorescence in IPN matrices are lower in comparison to polymer matrices of PE, PS, PMMA for all probes under study. The fluorescence life-times for bound and free probes have been in the range 100–200 ns, which is substiantialy shorter than for the parent pyrene chromophore under the same or similar condition. Grafted probes on PE alone, or as a part of IPN, exhibit substantially shorter life-time around 10 ns and decay is rather complex.     

NONLINEAR OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF MOLECULAR TWINS

Three different series of twin nonlinear optic (NLO) molecules were studied, in which the two NLO chromophores are linked by a central flexible polymethylene spacer. The first series, which had two azobenzene chromophores (Azo-twins), was designed to also exhibit liquid crystallinity. Most of the members of this series exhibited a nematic mesophase. The second series had two 4-nitrophenol units as chromphores (PNP-twins), while the third one was based on 4-alkylsulfonyl-4'-alkoxy azobenzene chromophores (Sulfazo-twins). These twin NLO systems exhibited interesting odd-even oscillations in their second harmonic generation (SHG) efficiencies in the powder form. When the spacer had an odd number of methylene groups, they exhibited significantly higher powder SHG efficiency than their even counterparts, with the even ones most often exhibiting no detectable SH signal. Preliminary single crystal X-ray diffraction studies performed on the PNP-twin series showed that while the even members possess a molecular center of symmetry and pack centro-symmetrically, the odd ones do not, leading to the observed alternation. The orientational-disordering dynamics of two of the twin series – the PNP and the Sulfazo-twin series, doped in a poly(methyl methacrylate) matrix, was also studied by monitoring the SH-signal decay in electric field poled samples. Interestingly, the maximum attainable SH signal, χ⁽²⁾, in the poled samples also showed an odd-even oscillation with the odd ones again exhibiting a higher value of χ⁽²⁾. The temporal stability of the SHG intensity at 70°C, after the removal of the applied corona, was also studied and the relaxation of the chromophores was found to follow a biexponential decay. The slower relaxation component exhibits a spacer length dependence, which suggests the interplay of two factors in governing the temporal stability in such polymer doped twin systems, one is the conformational discomfort experienced by the spacer in adopting a U-shaped geometry, and the other the electrostatic repulsion when two aligned dipoles lie very close to each other.
