A dynamic hohlraum is created when an annular z-pinch plasma implodes onto a cylindrical 0.014 g/cc 6-mm-diameter CH2 foam. The impact launches a radiating shock that propagates toward the axis at 350 μm/ns. The radiation trapped by the tungsten z-pinch plasma forms a 200 eV hohlraum that provides X-rays for indirect drive inertial confinement fusion capsule implosion experiments. We are developing the ability to diagnose the hohlraum interior using emission and absorption spectroscopy of Si atoms added as a tracer to the central portion of the foam. Time- and space-resolved Si spectra are recorded with an elliptical crystal spectrometer viewing the cylindrical hohlraum end-on. A rectangular aperture at the end of the hohlraum restricts the field of view so that the 1D spectrometer resolution corresponds approximately to the hohlraum radial direction. This enables distinguishing between spectra from the unshocked radiation-heated foam and from the shocked foam. Typical spectral lines observed include the Si Lyα with its He-like satellites and the He-like resonance sequence including Heα, Heβ, and Heγ, along with some of their associated Li-like satellites. Work is in progress to infer the hohlraum conditions using collisional–radiative modeling that accounts for the radiation environment and includes both opacity effects and detailed Stark broadening calculations. These 6-mm-scale radiation-heated plasmas might eventually also prove suitable for testing Stark broadening line profile calculations or for opacity measurements.  相似文献

We present the development of population kinetics models for tin plasmas that can be employed to design an EUV source for microlithography. The atomic kinetic code is constrained for the requirement that the model must be able to calculate spectral emissivity and opacity that can be used in radiation hydrodynamic simulations. Methods to develop compact and reliable atomic model with an appropriate set of atomic states are discussed. Specifically, after investigation of model dependencies and comparison experiment, we improve the effect of configuration interaction and the treatment of satellite lines. Using the present atomic model we discuss the temperature and density dependencies of the emissivity, as well as conditions necessary to obtain high efficiency EUV power at λ = 13.5 nm.  相似文献

Shock waves generated by temporally shaped laser ablation compressed and heated Al to ρ = 11 ± 5 g/cm3 and 20 ± 2 eV. The inferred density and temperature demonstrate that highly compressed, Fermi-degenerate plasma can be created by tuning the temporal pulse shape of the laser drive intensity. The density and temperature of these plastic-tamped Al plasmas in the warm dense matter regime were diagnosed using the Stark-broadened, Al 1s–2p absorption spectral line shapes. These observations represent the forefront of opacity measurements for warm dense matter and are important for high energy density physics and inertial confinement fusion.  相似文献

M-Band and L-Band Gold spectra between 3 and 5 keV and 8 and 13 keV, respectively, have been recorded by a photometrically calibrated crystal spectrometer. The spectra were emitted from the plasma in the laser deposition region of a ‘hot hohlraum’. This is a reduced-scale hohlraum heated with ≈9 kJ of 351 nm light in a 1 ns square pulse at the OMEGA laser. The space- and time-integrated spectra included L-Band line emission from Co-like to Ne-like gold. The three L-Band line features were identified to be the 3s  2p, 3d5/2  2p3/2 and 3d3/2  2p1/2 transitions at ≈9 keV, ≈10 keV and ≈13 keV, respectively. M-Band 5f  3d, 4d  3p, and 4p  3s transition features from Fe-like to P-like gold were also recorded between 3 and 5 keV. Modeling from the radiation–hydrodynamics code LASNEX, the collisional-radiative codes FLYCHK and SCRAM, and the atomic structure code FAC were used to model the plasma and generate simulated spectra for comparison with the recorded spectra. Through these comparisons, we have determined the average electron temperature of the emitting plasma to be between 6.0 and 6.5 keV. The electron temperatures predicted by LASNEX appear to be too large by a factor of about 1.5.  相似文献

The proton energy distribution generated from the interaction of an intense (2 ≈ 1020 W/cm2 μm2) short-pulse (100 fs) laser with a thin foil is investigated using energy resolved measurements and 2D collisional PIC-hybrid simulations. The measured absolute proton spectrum is well matched by a 1.7 MeV exponential function for energies <11 MeV. The proton conversion efficiency from hot electrons ≈6%. Simulations predict a strong radial dependence on the maximum proton energy and on the radial extent of 12 Å hydrocarbon depletion region. C and O ions in the hydrocarbon layer gain significant energies, limiting the efficiency to the protons. The efficiency scaling for ion mixtures is derived using a simple model, and is shown to strongly depend on the cooling rate of the hot electrons. Simulations using hydrogen-rich, layered targets predict much higher efficiencies.  相似文献

Magnesium alloys AE42 and AZ91 reinforced with 23 vol.% carbon short fibers (Df ≈ 7 μm, Lf ≈ 100 μm) were tested under quasi-static loading. The carbon fibers were quasi-isotropically distributed in the horizontal plane (reinforced plane) of the casting. Compression and tensile tests were carried out on both the matrix alloys and the composites at temperatures between 20 °C and 300 °C. Specimens were machined to be loaded either parallel or normal to the reinforced plane. Due to the reinforcement, the compression yield stress of the composite AE42-C increased to a value approximately three-fold greater than the yield strength of the matrix; for composite AZ91-C this parameter was approximately 2.5-fold greater than that of the AZ91 matrix. The improvement in tensile strength was less than that in compression, which could be related to early tensile fracture through decohesion at the matrix–fiber interface, as detected by SEM investigations conducted on failed tensile specimens. Flow curves for the matrix alloys at different temperatures were described by a modified Kocks–Mecking material law. An idealization of a 2-D mesomodel was used for finite-element simulation of the mechanical behavior of the composites. The fibers were first considered as elastic bodies and the behavior of the matrix material was set according to the material law determined from the flow curves for the matrix alloys. Other calculations were carried out by considering elasto-plastic behavior of the fibers for application of a failure initiation technique to simulate the behavior of the composite materials beyond the ultimate stress.  相似文献

This paper presents a numerical analysis of the steady boundary-layer flow of a Reiner–Philippoff fluid induced by a 90° stretching wedge in a variable free stream. The governing partial differential equations are converted into a set of two ordinary differential equations by the use of a similarity transformation. The flow is therefore governed by a stretching velocity parameter λ and two non-Newtonian fluid parameters γ and μ0. The variation of the skin friction, as well as other flow characteristics, as a function of the governing parameters is presented graphically and tabulated. A stability analysis has also been performed for this self-similar flow based on linear disturbances to the steady similarity solutions. The results presented in this paper reveal that there are no multiple (dual) solutions for the present problem and the unique solution is stable.  相似文献

Opacity is an important ingredient of the evolution of stars. The calculation of opacity coefficients is complicated by the fact that the plasma contains partially ionized heavy ions that contribute to opacity dominated by H and He. Up to now, the astrophysical community has greatly benefited from the work of the contributions of Los Alamos [1], Livermore [2], [2a] and [2b] and the Opacity Project (OP) [3]. However unexplained differences of up to 50% in the radiative forces and Rosseland mean values for Fe have been noticed for conditions corresponding to stellar envelopes. Such uncertainty has a real impact on the understanding of pulsating stellar envelopes, on the excitation of modes, and on the identification of the mode frequencies. Temperature and density conditions equivalent to those found in stars can now be produced in laboratory experiments for various atomic species. Recently the photo-absorption spectra of nickel and iron plasmas have been measured during the LULI 2010 campaign, for temperatures between 15 and 40 eV and densities of ∼3 mg/cm3. A large theoretical collaboration, the “OPAC”, has been formed to prepare these experiments. We present here the set of opacity calculations performed by eight different groups for conditions relevant to the LULI 2010 experiment and to astrophysical stellar envelope conditions.  相似文献

The plasma conditions in isochorically heated beryllium are measured by collective x-ray Thomson scattering. The collectively scattered Cl Ly-α x-ray line at 2.96 keV shows up- and down-shifted plasmon signals. From the detailed balance relation, i.e., the ratio of the up-shifted to the down-shifted plasmon intensities, the plasma temperature can be determined independent of model assumptions. Results are shown for an experiment in which a temperature of 18 eV was measured. Using detailed balance for temperature measurement will be important to validate models that calculate the static ion–ion structure factor Sii(k).  相似文献

We analyzed the spectra of X-ray transmission through radiatively heated medium-Z plasma (Fe, Ni, Cu and Ge) measured at LULI2000 facility in the wavelength range of 2pnd transitions. The analysis was performed using the statistical superconfiguration code SCO, two line-by-line opacity codes based on the HULLAC and FAC packages and a new hybrid statistical-detailed code SCORCG. The temperature and mass density of the samples were estimated from hydrodynamic simulations based on the cavity radiative temperature measurements. The theory–experiment agreement is relatively good in the wavelength range corresponding to the 2p–3d transitions except in the germanium case. In the wavelength range of the 2p–2d, n > 3 transitions a relatively good theory–experiment agreement was found in the copper case. As predicted by calculations the separation of the characteristic spin-orbit-split 2p–3d structures, absent in the iron measured spectrum, appears in the nickel spectrum and is visible in the copper and germanium spectra. Comparisons of the experimental transmission with calculations confirm the importance of the relativistic configuration interaction. The absorption strength of the measured germanium 2p–3d transition is much larger than that obtained from the codes. Spatial temperature and density gradients, relatively high in the germanium sample, may be at the origin of this discrepancy.  相似文献

An experimental study was made on convective heat and mass transfer from a horizontal heated cylinder in a downward flow of air-water mist at a blockage ratio of 0.4. The measured local heat transfer coefficients agree fairly well with the authors' numerical solutions obtained previously for the front surface of a cylinder over the ranges mass flow ratio 0–4.5×10−2, a temperature difference between the cylinder and air 10–43 K, gas Reynolds number (7.9–23)×103, Rosin-Rammler size parameter 105–168 μm, and dispersion parameter 3.4–3.7. Heat transfer augmentation, two-pahse to single-phase of greater than 19 was attained at the forward stagnation point. For heat transfer in the rear part of the cylinder, an empirical formula is derived by taking into account the dimensionless governing variables, that is, coolant-feed and evaporation parameters.  相似文献

The mass concentration and size distribution of aerosols in Tokaimura were investigated using a high-volume and a low-volume Andersen sampler. A difference was found using the two samplers: the concentration of total aerosols determined with the high-volume sampler is smaller than that of the low-volume sampler by 70-90% throughout the year. Compared to the high-volume sampler, low-volume sampler gave lower concentration for aerosols 〉7 μm, higher concentration for aerosols of 3.3-7.0 μm and 〈 1.1 μm, though similar results for aerosols of 1.1-3.3 μm. The low-volume sampler was found to have better separation efficiency and higher accuracy.  相似文献

We have modelled an experiment performed at the LULI facility (Ecole Polytechnique, Palaiseau, France). This experiment was devoted to the measurement of the temporal coherence of the transient Ni-like silver X-ray laser at the wavelength of 13.9 nm.In population kinetics studies of saturated lasers, it is necessary to account for the interaction between the X-ray laser electric field and the lasing ions. To this end, we have used the Maxwell–Bloch formalism in the paraxial approximation. The Zeeman sublevels (JM) associated with the lower lasing level (J = 1) are not identically affected by the X-ray laser field. As a result, their populations are different. However, elastic collisions between free electrons and lasing ions have the opposite effect: they tend to restore equilibrium between the sublevel populations. Therefore, elastic collision rates obtained in the distorted wave approximation have been included in the rate equations. Refraction of the X-ray beam, due to electron density gradients, is taken into account by using a ray-trace code which works as a post-processor of the hydro-code EHYBRID.We have checked that the Voigt profile is a good approximation for lasing lines in Ni-like ions. This allowed us to implement a subroutine calculating the Voigt profile in the Maxwell–Bloch code.Whilst the FWHM of the spontaneous emission profile is 12 mÅ, the amplified X-ray line shows a smaller width of 3 mÅ. This is known as the gain narrowing effect. We notice the saturation of the line-width for a propagation length of 2–3 mm. Comparison with experiment is discussed.  相似文献

Recent experiments at the Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) X-ray Free-Electron-Laser (FEL) have demonstrated that the standard model used for simulating ionization potential depression (IPD) in a plasma (the Stewart–Pyatt (SP) model, J.C. Stewart and K.D. Pyatt Jr., Astrophysical Journal 144 (1966) 1203) considerably underestimates the degree of IPD in a solid density aluminium plasma at temperatures up to 200 eV. In contrast, good agreement with the experimental data was found by use of a modified Ecker–Kröll (mEK) model (G. Ecker and W. Kröll, Physics of Fluids 6 (1963) 62–69). We present here detailed simulations, using the FLYCHK code, of the predicted spectra from hot dense, hydrogenic and helium-like aluminium plasmas ranging in densities from 0.1 to 4 times solid density, and at temperatures up to 1000 eV. Importantly, we find that the greater IPDs predicted by the mEK model result in the loss of the n = 3 states for the hydrogenic ions for all densities above ≈0.8 times solid density, and for the helium-like ions above ≈0.65 solid density. Therefore, we posit that if the mEK model holds at these higher temperatures, the temperature of solid density highly-charged aluminium plasmas cannot be determined by using spectral features associated with the n = 3 principal quantum number, and propose a re-evaluation of previous experimental data where high densities have been inferred from the spectra, and the SP model has been used.  相似文献

A novel photoelectrochemical biosensor incorporating nanosized CdS semiconductor crystals with enzyme to enhance photochemical reaction has been investigated. CdS nanoparticles were synthesized by using dendrimer PAMAM as inner templates. The CdS nanoparticles and glucose oxidase (GOD) were immobilized on Pt electrode via layer-by-layer (LbL) technique to fabricate a biological-inorganic hybrid system. Under ultraviolet light, the photo-effect of the CdS nanoparticles showed enhancement of the biosensor to detect glucose. Pt nanoparticles were mixed into the Nation film to immobilize the CdS/enzyme composites and to improve the charge transfer of the hybrid. Experimental results demonstrate the desirable characteristics of this biosensing system, e,g. a sensitivity of 1.83 μA/(mM cm^2), lower detection limit (1 μM), and acceptable reproducibility and stability,  相似文献

Vortex shedding in the wake of two-dimensional bluff bodies is usually accompanied by three dimensional instabilities. These instabilities result in streamwise and vertical vorticity components which occur at a certain spanwise wavelength. The spanwise wavelength of the instabilities (λZ) depends on several parameters, including profile geometry and Reynolds number. The objective of the present work is to study the three dimensional wake instabilities for a blunt trailing edge profiled body, comprised of an elliptical leading edge and a rectangular trailing edge, and to manipulate these instabilities to control the aerodynamic forces. Results of numerical simulations of flow around the body at Re(d) = 400, 600, and 1000, as well as planar Laser Induced Fluorescence (LIF) flow visualizations at Re(d) = 600 and 1000 are analyzed to determine the wake vorticity structure and λZ. Based on the findings of these analyses, an active flow control mechanism for attenuation of the fluctuating aerodynamic forces on the body is proposed. The flow control mechanism is comprised of a series of trailing edge injection ports distributed across the span, with a spacing equal to λZ. Injection of a secondary flow leads to amplification of the three dimensional instabilities and disorganization of the von Kármán vortex street. Numerical simulations indicate that the flow control mechanism can attenuate the fluctuating aerodynamic forces at lower Reynolds numbers (Re(d) = 400 and 600) where λZ is constant in time. However, the control mechanism loses its effectiveness at Re(d) = 1000, due to the temporal variations of λZ.  相似文献

The implicit character of micro-structural degradation is determined by specifying the time history of crack growth caused by creep–fatigue interaction at high temperature. A dual scale micro/macro-equivalent crack growth model is used to illustrate the underlying principle of multiscaling which can be applied equally well to nano/micro. A series of dual scale models can be connected to formulate triple or quadruple scale models. Temperature and time-dependent thermo-mechanical material properties are developed to dictate the design time history of creep–fatigue cracking that can serve as the master curve for health monitoring.In contrast to the conventional procedure of problem/solution approach by specifying the time- and temperature-dependent material properties as a priori, the desired solution is then defined for a class of anticipated loadings. A scheme for matching the loading history with the damage evolution is then obtained. The results depend on the initial crack size and the extent of creep in proportion to fatigue damage. The path dependent nature of damage is demonstrated by showing the range of the pertinent parameters that control the final destruction of the material. A possible scenario of 20 yr of life span for the 38Cr2Mo2VA ultra-high strength steel is used to develop the evolution of the micro-structural degradation. Three micro/macro-parameters μ*, d* and σ* are used to exhibit the time-dependent variation of the material, geometry and load effects. They are necessary to reflect the scale transitory behavior of creep–fatigue damage. Once the algorithm is developed, the material can be tailor made to match the behavior. That is a different life span of the same material would alter the time behavior of μ*, d* and σ* and hence the micro-structural degradation history. The one-to-one correspondence of the material micro-structure degradation history with that of damage by cracking is the essence of path dependency. Numerical results and graphs are obtained to demonstrate how the inherently implicit material micro-structure parameters can be evaluated from the uniaxial bulk material properties at the macroscopic scale.The combined behavior of creep and fatigue can be exhibited by specifying the parameter ξ with reference to the initial defect size a0. Large ξ (0.90 and 0.85) gives critical crack size acr = 11–14 mm (at t < 20 yr) for a0 about 1.3 mm. For small ξ (0.05 and 0.15), there results critical acr = 6–7 mm (at t < 20 yr) for a0 about 0.7–0.8 mm. The initial crack is estimated to increase its length by an order of magnitude before triggering global to the instability. This also applies ξ ≈ 0.5 where creep interacts severely with fatigue. Fine tuning of acr and a0 can be made to meet the condition oft = 20 yr.Trade off among load, material and geometric parameters are quantified such that the optimum conditions can be determined for the desired life qualified by the initial–final defect sizes. The scenario assumed in this work is indicative of the capability of the methodology. The initial–final defect sizes can be varied by re-designing the time–temperature material specifications. To reiterate, the uniqueness of solution requires the end result to match with the initial conditions for a given problem. This basic requirement has been accomplished by the dual scale micro/macro-crack growth model for creep and fatigue.  相似文献

For plasmas in LTE at moderate or low temperatures (1–50 eV), the statistical approach for calculating emission or absorption spectra may become inaccurate and need improvement to account for the Boltzmann factor in the population of the levels. In this work, corrections to the transition rates are computed by using the moments of emission or absorption zones, which represent the set of levels within a configuration that provide the dominant part of the emissivity (or opacity). Partition functions are also improved by using high-order moments of level energy distributions. Corrections to the statistical models are derived in a non-relativistic framework as a function of these moments, which can be deduced from already published formulas. Numerical comparisons of detailed line-by-line and statistical calculations are presented that clearly illustrate the importance of correcting the models at low temperatures. Thus, these corrections are of great interest for applications such as Warm Dense Matter, LTE photo-absorption experiments where the targets are heated to ∼Te = 20 eV and astrophysical plasmas.  相似文献
