Inhibition of corrosion of aluminium in presence of fluorescein in basic medium

The influence of Fluorescein in conjunction with calcium oxide on the corrosion of Aluminium in 1.0 N NaOH was studied by galvanostatic studies and weight loss studies. It has been found that the inhibition of corrosion of aluminium increased with the increasing concentration of the inhibitor. The maximum inhibition efficiency of fluorescein alone was found to be 30.80%. However, the addition of calcium oxide increased the maximum inhibition efficiency to 53.71%. The corrosion process was found to be under the anodic control, in the presence or in the absence of inhibitor. The inhibition was found to be mixed type.

Deflection of IR-radiation in n-InSb in the presence of temperature-electrical instability in a magnetic field

The formation of an S-shaped volt-ampere characteristic (VAC) during the heating of a specimen of n-type indium antimonide by a dc electric current in the presence of an external magnetic field is considered. In the calculation of the VAC the temperature dependences of the band gap width, the carrier density, the mobility, and the heat conductivity are taken into account. The angle of deflection of IR-radiation in indium antimonide is calculated using the density distribution over the cross section of the specimen derived from the integration of heat conductivity equation. The experimental and theoretical dependences of the deflection angle on the current are in agreement in order of magnitude and indicate that it is possible to use the temperature instability for the construction of laser radiation deflectors in the IR range.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 11, pp. 35–40, November, 1984.The authors are grateful to V.

Variations in bonding of iron in porous ferrisilicates

The ISAC post accelerator comprises an RFQ, DTL and SC-linac. The high energy beam lines connect the linear accelerators as well as deliver the accelerated beams to two different experimental areas. The medium energy beam transport (MEBT) line connects the RFQ to the DTL. The high energy beam transport (HEBT) line connects the DTL to the ISAC-I experimental stations (DRAGON, TUDA-I, GPS). The DTL to superconducting beam (DSB) transport line connects the ISAC-I and ISAC-II linacs. The superconducting energy beam transport (SEBT) line connects the SC linac to the ISAC-II experimental station (TUDA-II, HERACLES, TIGRESS, EMMA and GPS). All these lines have the function of transporting and matching the beams to the downstream sections by manipulating the transverse and longitudinal phase space. They also contain diagnostic devices to measure the beam properties.     

厚透镜近似下激光驻波场中原子动力学研究

研究了在厚透镜近似下 ,原子在激光驻波场中的动力学行为 .通过直接演化一维薛定谔方程 ,发现当激光的强度较大时 ,原子束将会聚焦形成几个焦点 .如果激光的强度更大 ,驻波场中的原子将会出现一种“隧道”现象 ,此时 ,原子受一些实验参数 (如焦平面位置、激光强度等 )的影响程度将大大降低 .这种现象有利于提高原子在驻波场中聚焦沉积的效果 . The dynamics of atoms in laser standing wave (SW) in the regime of over-focused immersion-lens is studied. Through directly evolving a one-dimensional Schrdinger equation, we find that multiple focusing appears when laser intensity is larger than that required for simple focusing. If laser intensity is much higher than that for the single focusing, a "channeling" phenomenon appears, which is insensitive to the variation of some parameters, such as focal plane position and laser intensity...

Value of RARE-MRI sequences in the diagnosis of lymphangiomatosis in children

Three patients suffering from extensive cavernous lymphangiomatosis are presented here. They were examined by MRI using RARE-MR hydrography (rapid acquisition with relaxation enhancement) as well as conventional spin-echo sequences. RARE sequences, which depict each fluid-filled lymphatic space, can be used for screening. RARE-sequences help to shorten investigation time, particularly in cases involving the skeleton. The imaging strategy can be changed according to the results of this sequence. It may be performed prior to spin-echo sequences and facilitates follow-up investigations. RARE sequences distinguish between lymphangiomatosis and hemangiomatosis, or a combination of the two.     

Simulation of secondary processes in breakdown in air

The simulation of the buildup of a breakdown in air is made in a gap with an applied uniform electric field. The computer program is based on the classic determinist model of Townsend with account to secondary effects on the cathode and space charge effects in the gap. Nevertheless, this model takes into account the different ionic and electronic creative processes in the discharge. To the direct ionization must be added attachment, detachment and charge exchange processes. The continuity equation gouverning the densities is written for each charge carriers kind. The resolution of this system represents accurately the spatio-temporel evolution of the discharge. The results are in good agreement with the experimental results found in literature.     

Disclinations in nematics in the presence of flexoelectricity

The stability problems of wedge disclinations (with pure splay and bend distortions) in nematic liquid crystals (NLC) are considered in the presence of flexoelectricity. We write NLC director equations in the cylindrical coordinate system, taking into account flexoelectricity. These equations allow us to solve many interesting problems on the influence of flexoelectricity on the orientational structures of NLC. In particular, it is shown that the line of disclination with radial distribution of director can be stabilized in the presence of flexoelectricity even far from nematicsmectic phase transition point. For the disclination with azimuthal distribution of director for all physical sizes the line is not stable and escapes in the third dimension.     

Dynamics of processes occurring in laser ablation of metals in a liquid

We present the results of investigations undertaken to establish relationships between certain characteristics of the disintegration of metals in air and liquid under laser radiation and their thermophysical properties, as well as between the basic parameters of a gas cavity formed in a liquid and the energy of the laser ablation products of metals. Consideration is given to the possibilities of applying the dynamic properties of this cavity to control the time behavior of the radiation of solid-state lasers and to solve spectroanalytical problems.

Polarized fluorescence of radicals in photodissociation of disulfides in the gas phase

The polarization of the fluorescence of radicals formed in laser-induced photodissociation of some disulfides in the gas phase is measured. Experimental data obtained in the study are interpreted within the free recoil model. It is shown that polarization experiments carried out to investigate photodecay in vapors allow researchers to uniquely the intramolecular direction of the dipole moments of transitions with absorption and emission.

光谱学技术在稀奶油乳脂肪研究中的应用

乳脂肪是制备稀奶油的主要原料,不同产地的乳脂肪结构性能差异较大,进而影响稀奶油乳浊液各项性能。利用拉曼光谱动态光散射、近红外光稳定性分析等光谱学技术,研究了不同来源乳脂肪（MF-A, MF-B和MF-C）理化特性,并比较相应稀奶油的稳定性及粒径分布,以说明乳脂肪性能对稀奶油品质的影响。拉曼光谱结果显示：1 303和1 446 cm-1 -CH₂振动,2 800～3 000 cm-1 C-H振动,1 131 cm-1 C-C振动的峰信号强弱顺序MF-A>MF-B>MF-C（p<0.05）,说明MF-A饱和程度最高;1 657 cm-1 C=C振动,信号强弱顺序MF-C>MF-B>MF-A （p<0.05）,说明MF-C中顺式不饱和脂肪酸含量最高,三种乳脂肪均为顺式不饱和脂肪酸,无反式脂肪酸。同时,碘值分析进一步验证MF-A饱和度最高,相应乳脂肪硬度大、稳定性和可塑性佳。在0~40 ℃范围内,不同温度下固体脂肪含量（SFC）由高到低为MF-A>MF-B>MF-C（p<0.05）,说明相应的稀奶油宜在4 ℃贮藏,10~15 ℃打发并裱花。在25 ℃等温结晶1 h,用偏光显微镜观察三个样品,发现MF-A冷却时最先形成晶核并诱导周围脂肪不断结晶而聚集形成小而密的结晶网络。MF-B为细微球晶与针状晶组成的晶体簇,晶体数量少,结晶网络不完整;MF-C晶体分布较为稀疏,数量极少,且晶体平均直径小于20 μm。分别用三种乳脂肪制备稀奶油XMF-A,XMF-B,XMF-C,从粒径分布图中看出XMF-A基本为单峰,说明稀奶油乳浊液较稳定,脂肪球没有聚结,而XMF-B,XMF-C为双峰,说明脂肪球均发生了一定程度的聚结,且XMF-C平均粒径最大,所以XMF-C聚结程度高于XMF-B,平均粒径顺序为XMF-AXMF-B>XMF-C（p<0.05）。通过研究以连续相与分散相形式存在的乳脂肪理化特性,发现了脂肪组成、结构与结晶行为规律,探索了乳脂肪结晶对稀奶油品质的影响机制,旨在为制备不同需求乳制品提供原料选择的理论依据。     

Formation of structure in the zone of internal oxidation in copper-base alloys

The development of structure in the internal-oxidation zone of binary alloys formed between copper and various oxide-forming elements (Al, Be, Ti, or Si) as a result of the diffusion of oxygen into these is considered; so is the effect of small quantities of third elements on the process. As the internal-oxidation zone advances the size of the precipitates increases; in the presence of preferential crystallographic directions of growth, acicular precipitates develop, and a microscopically banded structure is created. The reason for the structural characteristics indicated apparently lies in the changing ratio of the number of oxygen atoms to the numbers of atoms of the oxidizing element at the reaction front as the latter advances. The addition of traces of third elements (Ti to Cu-Al, Be, Ti, and Zr to Cu-Si) affects the nucleation process and increases the degree of dispersion of the precipitates. This influences the diffusion of the reacting elements and hence the character of structure formation.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 5, pp. 95–100, May, 1975.

Rising of gas bubbles in an aqueous medium in presence of surfactants

Summary Experiments based on the direct comparison of the gas-bubble rising times in a surfactant aqueous solution, in respect to those in pure water, give support to the hypothesis that a rising path of many metres is needed to reach the saturation of the adsorption process on bubbles (0.2÷0.3) cm in diameter. A maximum is evidenced in thet/t ₀ ratiovs. surfactant concentration at the highest concentrations tested. An explanation, on a qualitative basis, of the appearance of the observed maximum is proposed.

Rectification of terahertz radiation in semiconductor superlattices in the absence of domains

We study theoretically the dynamical rectification of a terahertz AC?electric field, i.e.?the DC?current and voltage response to the incident radiation, in strongly coupled semiconductor superlattices. We address the problem of stability against electric field domains: a spontaneous DC?voltage is known to appear exactly for parameters for which a spatially homogeneous electron distribution is unstable. We show that by applying a weak direct current bias the rectifier can be switched from a state with zero DC?voltage to one with a finite voltage in full absence of domains. The switching occurs near the conditions of dynamical symmetry breaking of an unbiased semiconductor superlattice. Therefore our scheme allows for the generation of DC?voltages that would otherwise be unreachable due to domain instabilities. Furthermore, for realistic, highly doped wide miniband superlattices at room temperature, the generated DC?field can be nearly quantized, that is, be approximately proportional to an integer multiple of ?ω/ea where a is the superlattice period and ω is the AC?field frequency.     

Analysis of the critical behaviour of curved regions in equilibrium shapes of in crystals

Crystal shapes near {111} facets have been analyzed on indium crystals in their equilibrium shape. These measurements are compared with two theoretical concepts of the critical behaviour of curved regions: the “Pokrovsky-Talapov transition” and the “mean field theory”. Taking into account, on the one hand, the inaccuracy of the experimental determination of the origin of the curved region and, on the other hand, the “window” of validity of the Pokrovsky-Talapov transition theory, the choice between the two theories is difficult. Nevertheless the analytical expression of the mean field theory reproduces surprisingly well all the points of the experimental profile.     

Role of the velocity frame of reference in thermodiffusion in liquid mixtures

The role and significance of the velocity frame of reference in the interpretation, modeling and formulation of thermodiffusion in multicomponent liquid mixtures were investigated, focused on the nonequilibrium thermodynamics modeling approach. The effect of the velocity frame of reference on the phenomenological equations and thermodiffusion coefficients and expressions is explored. Theoretically and also by the aid of representative calculations, it is shown that while in binary mixtures transformation from one frame to another does not affect the sign and magnitude of the thermodiffusion coefficients, in multicomponent mixtures (ternary and higher), even the sign of the thermodiffusion coefficients may change when an alternative frame is used. This implies that in multicomponent mixtures for either experimental data or model estimations, the employed velocity frame for the thermodiffusion coefficients plays an important role in calculations. The Soret coefficients and the thermodiffusion factors are independent of the frame of reference.     

Fluctuations in number of photons in region of unstable behavior in process of intracavity generation of second harmonic

Quantum fluctuations of the number of photons of the fundamental mode and of the second harmonic in the process of intracavity generation of the second harmonic in the unstable region of the system are studied. The distribution functions of the number of photons of interacting modes are calculated in the positive P-representation. The functions of the joint distribution of the number of photons of the fundamental mode and the number of photons in the second harmonic are also studied.     

Singularities in determination of the diffusion coefficients of components in melts of AIIIBV systems

A critical analysis is performed of the mathematical expressions used to compute the diffusion coefficients of components on the basis of data on the growth rate or dissolution of crystals of A^IIIB^V compounds. It is shown that neglect of high-order terms of the series that are the solution of the mass transport differential equations will result in substantial errors during processing of the experimental results. To simplify the computations and eliminate mathematical inaccuracy, it is proposed to use the analytic solution of the diffusion mass transport equations in the approximation of a semi-infinite medium. The diffusion coefficient of arsenic in liquid indium in the 550–750C temperature range is computed on the basis of experimental results on the rate of InAs dissolution in an unsaturated In-As melt by using the method proposed.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 4, pp. 19–25, April, 1987.
