Measurement and analysis of alpha-induced reactions on Ta,Ag and Co

Excitation functions for the reaction¹⁸¹Ta (α,xn)^185−x Re,^107,109Ag (α, ypxn) and⁵⁹Co (α, ypxn) were obtained from measurements of residual activity of stacked foils from threshold to 60 MeV. The excitation functions for the production of¹⁸¹Re,¹⁸²Re,¹⁸³Re,¹⁸⁴Re,¹⁰⁵Ag,¹¹¹In,⁵⁴Mn,⁵⁶Co,⁵⁸Co, and⁶⁰Co, are being presented. The experimental data are compared with calculations considering equilibrium as well as pre-equilibrium reactions according to the hybrid model of Blann. High energy part of the excitation functions is dominated by the pre-equilibrium reaction mechanism. Calculations were done using a priori calculational method of Overlaid Alice Code of Blann. Most of the excitation functions in the energy range mentioned above could be very well fitted with the hybrid model calculation for exciton numbern=4 withn _p=2 andn _n=2. The overall agreement with theory is good. Certain discrepancies, however, indicate the necessity to revise the hybrid model with respect to emission of complex particles.

Misfit dislocations in limited inhomogeneous media: A review

Elastic fields of translation and misfit dislocations (resp. TD's and MD's) are investigated for two types of inhomogeneous materials.First, a multilayer formed by parallel heterointerfaces or free surfaces and containing one periodic array of interfacial MD's. In the more simple case of a thin layer on a substrate, analytic solutions can be found for the displacement field u relative to a single or a hexagonal periodic array of MD's. In the less simple case of a thin bicrystal and a layer sandwiched between two semi-infinite media, explicit solutions can still be extracted. For the general case of a multilayer material which involves a number N>2 heterointerfaces, analytic expressions become intractable. Solutions can nevertheless be obtained from the numerical inversion of linear equations which express the limiting boundary conditions along the heterointerfaces.Second, a thin bicrystal containing an heterointerface perpendicular to the two free surfaces of a foil. Starting from the elastic field of an edge TD parallel to the free surfaces, it is shown how to derive that of (i) a coherent heterointerface, (ii) a semicoherent heterointerface containing a single MD, and (iii) two close and parallel coherent heterointerfaces. Numerical calculations and graphs illustrate the solutions for metals (Al, Al₂Cu), semiconductor materials (CoSi₂, Si, GaAs), thin foils of the GaAs/Si type and a / superalloy.

Folded tandem ion accelerator facility at trombay

The folded tandem ion accelerator (FOTIA) project at BARC has been commissioned. The analysed carbon beams of 40 nA(3⁺) and 25 nA(4⁺), at terminal voltage of 2.5 MV with N₂ + CO₂ as insulating gas, were obtained. The beams were characterized by performing the Rutherford back scattering (RBS) on gold, tin and iron targets. The beam energy of 12.5 MeV for ¹²C⁴⁺ was consistent with the terminal voltage of 2.5 MV. The N₂ + CO₂ mixture is being replaced by SF₆ gas in order to achieve 6 MV on the terminal. In this paper, some of the salient features of the FOTIA and its present status are discussed.     

Modeling the capacity of a novel flow-energy harvester

The performance of a new type of flow energy harvester based on oscillating foils is investigated through numerical modeling by using two methods, a 2D thin-plate model and a 3D nonlinear boundary-element model. The fluid–structure interaction problem involved in the dynamics of a heaving/pitching foil coupled with an actuation/energy harvesting system in this device is examined. The 2D analysis allows us to simulate dynamics of the flapping-foil system over a large range of parameters and to identify areas of special interests (e.g., high energy output or high efficiency). In the vicinity of these areas the 3D model can accurately predict the performance of the system. By examining the power extraction capacity and efficiency of the system at various geometric, mechanical, and kinematic parameters, the optimal performance of the system is determined. In addition, the performance is found to be enhanced by the presence of a solid ground, as well as the thickness of the foil (at certain frequencies).
