Testing deviations from the inverse square law with a freely falling gravity gradiometer at balloon altitudes

Summary We discuss a null experiment to search for the fifth force at ranges around 10 km. It is proposed to use a three-axis gravity gradiometer to measure the trace of the Earth gravity tensor from a freely falling elevator dropped by a balloon. The main error sources are considered to some extent. Paper presented at the V Cosmic Physics National Conference, S. Miniato, November 27–30, 1990.     

Gain saturation in quantum-well heterostructures

The effect of radiation gain saturation in quantum-well heretostructures was investigated in the system GaAs—AlGaAs with regard to the spectral line broadening and the type of radiation polarization.

热辐射驱动烧蚀平面金靶的数值定标定律

利用一维辐射流体力学编码数值研究了辐射烧蚀波在平面金靶中的传播情况,并在常温边界条件下得到了辐射流、烧蚀压、质量烧蚀率和特征等离子体密度的定标定律。     

影响产生均匀等离子体状态的几个因素

 用数值模拟方法研究利用辐射加热来产生均匀等离子体状态,它可被用来测量元素的辐射不透明度,校验辐射不透明度理论。研究了在辐射加热铁的“三明治”型靶时影响生成均匀等离子体状态的几个重要因素（样品厚度、CH膜厚度和辐射源）所起的作用，研究发现，当铁等离子体通过热传导达到均匀状态时，其尺度必须与此时的传热距离相当，从而定出铁样品的厚度；低Z介质CH膜对铁等离子体有明显的箍束作用，调整CH膜的厚度可以调节所产生的等离子体状态；调整不同方向上的CH膜厚度，可以控制铁等离子体的膨胀方向，使它尽可能地达到一维膨胀，使得反推出的等离子体密度可以更加准确；样品的种类、厚度以及外面的低Z介质厚度决定了在某时刻能获得的等离子体状态，以及为产生此等离子体状态所需的最低辐射能。

Scientific legacy of Stanley Ruby

Stanley L. Ruby (1924–2004) made major contributions to Mössbauer spectroscopy and was the first to suggest the feasibility of observing the Mössbauer effect using synchrotron radiation. In this article we recall his scientific legacy that have inspired his scientific colleagues.     

Scattering from infinite rough tubular surfaces

We study the Helmholtz equation in the exterior of an infinite perturbed cylinder with a Dirichlet boundary condition. Existence and uniqueness of solutions are established using the variational technique introduced (SIAM J. Math. Anal. 2005; 37 (2):598–618). We also provide stability estimates with explicit dependence of the constants in terms of the frequency and the perturbed cylinder thickness. Copyright © 2006 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

THE FIRST EXPERIMENT OF A THz GYROTRON WITH A PULSE MAGNET

A THz gyrotron with a pulse magnet has been designed, constructed and operated in FIR FU. It is developed as one of high frequency gyrotrons included in Gyrotron FU Series. The gyrotron has already achieved the first experimental result for high frequency operations whose radiation frequency exceeds 1 THz. In this paper, the design detail and the operation test results for sub-terahertz to terahertz range are described. The second harmonic operation is confirmed experimentally at the expected frequency of 1.005 THz due to TE_6,11 cavity mode at the magnetic field intensity of 19.0 T.
