Total cross sections for scattering of electrons from O2, H2O, H2, O3, CO and CO2 at 100－2000eV

A complex optical model potential rewritten by the concept of bonded atom, which considers the overlap of electron clouds, is employed to calculate the total cross sections for electron scattering from several simple molecules (O_2, H_2O, H_2, O_3, CO and CO_2) consisting of C, H and O atoms in an incident energy range of 100－2000eV by the use of the additivity rule at Hartree－Fock level. In the study, the complex optical potential composed of static, exchange, correlation polarization plus absorption contributions firstly uses the bonded-atom concept. The quantitative molecular total cross section results are compared with experimental data and with the other calculations wherever available and good agreement is obtained. It is shown that the additivity rule along with the complex optical model potential rewritten by the concept of bonded atom can be used successfully to calculate the total cross section of electron－molecule scattering above 100eV, whereas the rule together with the complex optical model potential not rewritten by the concept of bonded atom is only successfully used above 300－500eV. So, the introduction of the bonded-atom concept in the complex optical potential can improve the accuracy of the total cross section calculations.     

Complex angle of incidence for planar optical waveguide analysis

We propose the concept of an incident angle in the form of complex number and analyse planar optical waveguides by applying the concept. The complex angle of incidence is concerned with the modelling of prism–gap–waveguide structures. It is shown that, when optical waveguides are analysed by means of the transfer matrix method, the proposed concept enables us to find solutions faster and more accurately than by using the method utilizing the leaky structure. This revised version was published online in November 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Monte Carlo ray-tracing simulation for radiative heat transfer in turbulent fluctuating media under the optically thin fluctuation approximation

The Monte Carlo ray-tracing method (MCRT) based on the concept of radiation distribution factor is extended to solve radiative heat transfer problem in turbulent fluctuating media under the optically thin fluctuation approximation. A one-dimensional non-scattering turbulent fluctuating media is considered, in which the mean temperature and absorption coefficient distribution are assumed and the shape of probability density function is given. The distribution of the time-averaged volume radiation heat source is solved by MCRT and direct integration method. It is shown that the results of MCRT based on the concept of radiation distribution factor agree with these of integration solution very well, but results of MCRT based on the concept of radiative transfer coefficient do not agree with these of integration solution. The solution of time-averaged radiative transfer equation by the concept of radiative transfer coefficient should be treated with caution.     

Robust Set Stabilization and Its Instances for Open Quantum Systems

We propose and discuss a novel concept of robust set stabilization by permissible controls; this concept is helpful when dealing with both a priori information of model parameters and different permissible controls including quantum measurements. Both controllability and stabilization can be regarded as the special case of the novel concept. An instance is presented for a kind of uncertain open quantum systems to further justify this generalized concept. It is underlined that a new type of hybrid control based on periodically perturbed projective measurements can be the permissible control of uncertain open quantum systems when perturbed projective measurements are available. The sufficient conditions are given for the robust set stabilization of uncertain quantum open systems by the hybrid control, and the design of the hybrid control is reduced to selecting the period of measurements.     

The Feature Description of Formal Context Based on the Relationships among Concept Lattices

Three-way concept analysis (3WCA) is extended research of formal concept analysis (FCA) by combining three-way decision. The three-way object oriented concept lattice (OEOL) is one of the important data structures which integrates rough set, concept lattice and three-way decision in 3WCA. In the paper, we investigate the characteristics of formal context based on the isomorphic relationship among the kinds of concept lattices with OEOL. Firstly, II-dual intersectable attributes and II-dual intersectable context are proposed and the relationship between the type I-dual intersectable context(dual intersectable context) and the type II-dual intersectable context are studied. In addition, the relationship among the kinds of concept lattices with OEOL are studied when the formal context is both I-dual intersectable context and II-dual intersectable context. Finally, the inverse problems of the above conclusions are discussed and the following two conclusions are obtained: (1) the formal context is the type II-dual intersectable context, when the object oriented concept lattice and OEOL are isomorphic. (2) In addition, the formal context is the type I-dual intersectable context, when the concept lattice and OEOL are anti-isomorphic.     

Integrated Image Associative Memory and Its Optical Implementation

We present the concept of integrated processing to combine intuitive processing of neural networks with logical processing of the conventional digital computer. We investigate a way to embody the concept in the neural network system by introducing external constraints in terms of external input. The effect of the external input is analyzed using the generalized projection method. The concept of integrated processing is applied to an image associative memory system, and the system is optically implemented for high-speed parallel processing incorporating it with the computer. The experimental result is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the external input to control the output of the image associative memory.

Classical vacuum versus quantum vacuum

We discuss the concept of quantum vacuum in comparison with the classical concept of vacuum in the context of light-wave propagation. The role played by quantum fluctuations is examined with respect to the behaviour of photons as the quanta of electromagnetic field and also in relation to the fact that photons can be regarded as non-zero mass particles. In this context, photon mass is defined from Klein–Gordon equation.

A differential geometrical consideration on a “nonlocal” field

In this paper, the concept of “nonlocality”, which is carried by the internal variable (ω) ascribed to each point (x), is first investigated generally in connection with the concept of “unified” gauge field. Next, as a typical example, a Finslerian “nonlocal” field is considered, which is obtained by taking for ω a vector (ξ), and two examples are proposed: one is a unified field with Randers metric and the other is a micro-gravitational field endowed with space-time fluctuation.     

Differential, elastic integral and moment transfer cross sections for electron scattering from N2 at intermediate- and high-energies

A complex optical model potential modified by incorporating the concept of bonded atom, with the overlapping effect of electron clouds between two atoms in a molecule taken into consideration, is firstly employed to calculate the differential cross sections, elastic integral cross sections, and moment transfer cross sections for electron scattering from molecular nitrogen over the energy range 300—1000eV by using additivity rule model at Hartree—Fock level. The bonded-atom concept is used in the study of the complex optical model potential composed of static, exchange, correlation polarization and absorption contributions. The calculated quantitative molecular differential cross sections, elastic integral cross sections, and moment transfer cross sections are compared with the experimental and theoretical ones wherever available, and they are found to be in good agreement with each other. It is shown that the additivity rule model together with the complex optical model potential modified by incorporating the concept of bonded atom is completely suitable for the calculations of differential cross section, elastic integral cross section and moment transfer cross section over the intermediate- and high-energy ranges.     

Laser-assisted homogeneous charge ignition in a constant volume combustion chamber

Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is a very promising future combustion concept for internal combustion engines. There are several technical difficulties associated with this concept, and precisely controlling the start of auto-ignition is the most prominent of them. In this paper, a novel concept to control the start of auto-ignition is presented. The concept is based on the fact that most HCCI engines are operated with high exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) rates in order to slow-down the fast combustion processes. Recirculated exhaust gas contains combustion products including moisture, which has a relative peak of the absorption coefficient around 3 μm. These water molecules absorb the incident erbium laser radiations (λ=2.79 μm) and get heated up to expedite ignition. In the present experimental work, auto-ignition conditions are locally attained in an experimental constant volume combustion chamber under simulated EGR conditions. Taking advantage of this feature, the time when the mixture is thought to “auto-ignite” could be adjusted/controlled by the laser pulse width optimisation, followed by its resonant absorption by water molecules present in recirculated exhaust gas.     

The probabilistic-informational opacity functional,Jaynes's principle,and distances to equilibrium of an evolving system

A new probabilistic-informational concept, earlier constructed by Mugur-Schächter, is further developed. Associated with Jaynes's principle, this concept permits one to define a measure for the distance between the state of a system evolving under stable constraints and the equilibrium with these constraints. An illustration is given for a gas evolving in a thermostated box. It appears that the free energy of the gas estimates the distance to equilibrium, the estimation being defined in abstract informational-probabilistic terms.     

Critical epinucleation on reconstructured surfaces and first-principle calculation of homonucleation on Si(100)

We introduce the concept of "critical epinucleation to distinguish nucleation on surfaces with and without reconstruction. On a reconstructed surface, the critical classical nucleus is stable against dissociation, but may not yet break the underlying surface reconstruction. Consequently, there must exist a "critical epinucleus" that is not only stable but also has established the epiconfiguration by unreconstructing the underlying substrate. We illustrate this concept by first-principle calculation of homonucleation on reconstructed Si(001) surface where the critical epinucleus consists of six adatoms.     

Total cross sections for electrons scattering from simple molecules containing the larger atom sulfur at 30-5000eV

A complex optical model potential modified by the concept of bonded atom, which takes into consideration the overlapping effect of electron clouds, is employed to calculate the total cross sections for electrons scattering from simple molecules （SO2, H2S, OCS, CS2 and SO3） containing the larger atom, sulfur, at 30-5000eV by using the additivity rule model at Hartree-Fock level. The quantitative molecular total cross section results are compared with those obtained in experiments and other calculations wherever available, and good agreement is obtained. It is shown that the additivity rule model together with the complex optical model potential modified by the concept of bonded atom can give the results closer to the experiments than the one unmodified by it. So, the introduction of bonded-atom concept in complex optical model potential betters the accuracy of the total cross section calculations of electrons from the molecules containing the larger atom, sulfur.     

Photoinduced ion transfer in heterojunctions based on solid electrolytes with a mixed ionic-electronic (hole) conductivity

The concept of photoinduced ion transfer in heterojunctions based on solid electrolytes with a mixed ionic-electronic (hole) conductivity is justified. This concept is confirmed by the experiments on photo-deposition of a metal in a heterojunction based on a solid electrolyte with a mixed conductivity. The possibility of using heterojunctions based on a solid electrolyte layer with a mixed ionic-electronic (hole) conductivity for optical recording of information is considered.
