Aluminium electron-phonon relaxation-time measurement from subpicosecond nonlinear single-photon photoelectric emission at 248 nm

The sensitivity of photoelectric emission of polycrystalline aluminium, produced by 248 nm laser pulses with p-polarization and 450 fs duration, under incidence angles = 74–86°, has been measured. A nonlinear increase of photoemission efficiency, as a function of the incident laser peak intensity in the range of 1–50 GW/cm², was displayed, which confirms earlier observations with gold and tungsten. This nonlinearity is consecutive to the non-thermal distribution of electron gas of laser-heated metal on the time scale of the electron-phonon relaxation time. Analysis of experimental data, using the model previously developed by us [1], gives a value of electron-phonon relaxation time 0.55 ± 0.11 ps.     

Algebraic decay and variable speeds in wavefront solutions of a scalar reaction-diffusion equation

Wavefront solutions of scalar reaction-diffusion equations havebeen intensively studied for many years. There are two basiccases, typified by quadratic and cubic kinetics. An intermediatecase is considered in this paper, namely, u_l = u_xx + u²(1 –u). It is shown that there is a unique travelling-wave solution,with a speed 1/2, for which the decay to zero ahead of the waveis exponential with x. Moreover, numerical evidence is presentedwhich suggests that initial conditions with such exponentialdecay evolve to this travelling-wave solution, independentlyof the half-life of the initial decay. It is then shown thatfor all speeds greater than 1/2 there is also a travelling-wavesolution, but that these faster waves decay to zero algebraically,in proportion to 1/x. The numerical evidence suggests that initialconditions with such a decay rate evolve to one of these fasterwaves; the particular speed depends in a simple way on the detailsof the initial condition. Finally, initial conditions decayingalgebraically for a power law other than 1/x are considered.It is shown numerically that such initial conditions evolveeither to an algebraically decaying travelling wave, or in somecases to a wavefront whose shape and speed vary as a functionof time. This variation is monotonic and can be quite pronounced,and the speed is a function of u as well as of time. Using asimple linearization argument, an approximate formula is derivedfor the wave speed which compares extremely well with the numericalresults. Finally, the extension of the results to the more generalcase of u_l = u_xx + u^m(1 – u), with m > 1, is discussed.     

无水坝抽水蓄能系统高压溶气问题研究

无水坝抽水蓄能系统利用封闭容器内的高压气体构建虚拟水坝,是兼具压缩空气储能和抽水蓄能优点的新型储能系统。但该系统的封闭容器内水和气在高压状态共存有可能造成水中溶气,从而对水轮机造成汽蚀等破坏。本文采用实际气体状态方程及分子动力学模拟方法,研究了宽广的压力、温度范围下气体在水中的溶解及扩散规律,揭示了水中气体溶解量随时间和水深的变化规律。研究结果表明释能结束后保证水-气共容舱内剩余水的高度大于0.5 m时,高压溶气不会对水轮机产生危害,该结论对系统的工程应用及推广具有指导意义。

A simplified approach for the generation of projection data for cone beam geometry

To test a developed reconstruction algorithm for cone beam geometry, whether it is transmission or emission tomography, one needs projection data. Generally, mathematical phantoms are generated in three dimensions and the projection for all rotation angles is calculated. For non-symmetric objects, the process is cumbersome and computation intensive. This paper describes a simple methodology for the generation of projection data for cone beam geometry for both transmission and emission tomographies by knowing the object’s attenuation and/or source spatial distribution details as input. The object details such as internal geometrical distribution are nowhere involved in the projection data calculation. This simple approach uses the pixilated object matrix values in terms of the matrix indices and spatial geometrical coordinates. The projection data of some typical phantoms (generated using this approach) are reconstructed using standard FDK algorithm and Novikov’s inversion formula. Correlation between the original and reconstructed images has been calculated to compare the image quality.

Characterization of multivariate stable processes

This paper deals with a characterization of a multivariate stable process using an independence property with a positive random variable. Moreover, we establish a characterization of a multivariate Lévy process based on the notion of cut in a natural exponential family. This allows us to draw some related properties. More precisely, we give the probability density function of this process and the law of the mixture of the Lévy process governed by the convolution semigroup with respect to an exponential random variable. These results are confidentially connected with the univariate case given by [G. Letac and V. Seshadri, Exponential stopping and drifted stable processes, Stat. Probab. Lett., 72:137–143, 2005].
