Systematic studies of fission fragment kinetic energy distributions by Langevin simulations

Fission fluctuation-dissipation dynamics of heavy nuclei has been studied using Langevin Monte Carlo simulations. The covariant form of the fission transport equation and the coefficients related to it are investigated. To learn about the influence of the dynamics from the ground state to the saddle point on the kinetic energy distributions we have studied various systems and compared the calculations both starting from the ground state and from the saddle point. Both the mean total kinetic energy of the fission fragments and its variances can fit with the experimental values in terms of a finite neck radius as scission condition.This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.     

广山药中16种元素的分析比较

用原子吸收法和分光光度法测定了5个产地的广山药及怀山药中16种元素的含量，并进行了比较。发现广山药及怀山药中均含有Mn,Fe,Zn,Ca,Cu,Mg,P,Se等元素，5个产地的广山药中的Cu/Zn值均低于正常人血清的Cu/Zn，这些元素可能是怀山药，广山药具有补脾养胃，生津益肺，补肾涩精，治疗糖尿病等功效的物质基础之一；广山药长期作为山药的一个品种同等入药，食用是有科学根据的；广山药，怀山药中含有一定量的As,Hg。     

Direct Synthesis of Oxygenates from Water and Methane via Dielectric-barrier Discharge

In this investigation, a clean, atomic economic and direct synthesis of oxygenates (methanol, ethanol) form water and methane via dielectric-barrier discharge was developed at room temperature and under atmospheric pressure. The effect of discharge voltage on this process was studied. The results showed that the conversion of water can be as high as 7%, the selectivity of methanol and ethanol can be as high as 100%.
