From the traditional viewpoint of continuum plasticity, plastic deformation of crystalline solids is, at least in the absence of so-called plastic instabilities, envisaged as a smooth and quasi-laminar flow process. Recent theoretical and experimental investigations, however, demonstrate that crystal plasticity is characterized by large intrinsic spatio-temporal fluctuations with scale-invariant characteristics: In time, deformation proceeds through intermittent bursts with power-law size distributions; in space, deformation patterns and deformation-induced surface morphology are characterized by long-range correlations, self-similarity and/or self-affine roughness. We discuss this scale-invariant behaviour in terms of robust scaling associated with a non-equilibrium critical point (‘yielding transition’).

Most studies on granular physics have focused on dry granular media, with no liquids between the grains. However, in geology and many real world applications (e.g. food processing, pharmaceuticals, ceramics, civil engineering, construction, and many industrial applications), liquid is present between the grains. This produces inter-grain cohesion and drastically modifies the mechanical properties of the granular media (e.g. the surface angle can be larger than 90 degrees). Here we present a review of the mechanical properties of wet granular media, with particular emphasis on the effect of cohesion. We also list several open problems that might motivate future studies in this exciting but mostly unexplored field.

We review the present state of understanding of solid friction at low velocities and for systems with negligibly small wear effects. We first analyze in detail the behavior of friction at interfaces between macroscopic hard rough solids, whose main dynamical features are well described by the Rice–Ruina rate and state-dependent constitutive law. We show that it results from two combined effects: (i) the threshold rheology of nanometer-thick junctions jammed under confinement into a soft glassy structure and (ii) the geometric aging, i.e. slow growth of the real area of contact via asperity creep interrupted by sliding. Closer analysis leads to identifying a second aging-rejuvenation process, at work within the junctions themselves. We compare the effects of structural aging at such multicontact, very highly confined, interfaces with those met under different confinement levels, namely boundary lubricated contacts and extended adhesive interfaces involving soft materials (hydrogels, elastomers). This leads us to propose a classification of frictional junctions in terms of the relative importance of jamming and adsorption-induced metastability.

Studies of single-particle momentum distributions in light atoms and molecules are reviewed with specific emphasis on experimental measurements using the deep inelastic neutron scattering technique at eV energies. The technique has undergone a remarkable development since the mid-1980s, when intense fluxes of epithermal neutrons were made available from pulsed neutron sources. These types of measurements provide a probe of the short-time dynamics of the recoiling atoms or molecules as well as information on the local structure of the materials. The paper introduces both the theoretical framework for the interpretation of deep inelastic neutron scattering experiments and thoroughly illustrates the physical principles underlying the impulse approximation from light atoms and molecules. The most relevant experimental studies performed on a variety of condensed matter systems in the last 20 years are reviewed. The experimental technique is critically presented in the context of a full list of published work. It is shown how, in some cases, these measurements can be used to extract directly the effective Born–Oppenheimer potential. A summary of the progress made to date in instrument development is also provided. Current data analysis and the interpretation of the results for a variety of physical systems is chosen to illustrate the scope and power of the method. The review ends with a brief consideration of likely developments in the foreseeable future. Particular discussion is given to the use of the VESUVIO spectrometer at ISIS.

A large number of multifaceted quantum transport processes in molecular systems and physical nanosystems, such as e.g. nonadiabatic electron transfer in proteins, can be treated in terms of quantum relaxation processes which couple to one or several fluctuating environments. A thermal equilibrium environment can conveniently be modelled by a thermal bath of harmonic oscillators. An archetype situation provides a two-state dissipative quantum dynamics, commonly known under the label of a spin-boson dynamics. An interesting and nontrivial physical situation emerges, however, when the quantum dynamics evolves far away from thermal equilibrium. This occurs, for example, when a charge transferring medium possesses nonequilibrium degrees of freedom, or when a strong time-dependent control field is applied externally. Accordingly, certain parameters of underlying quantum subsystem acquire stochastic character. This may occur, for example, for the tunnelling coupling between the donor and acceptor states of the transferring electron, or for the corresponding energy difference between electronic states which assume via the coupling to the fluctuating environment an explicit stochastic or deterministic time-dependence. Here, we review the general theoretical framework which is based on the method of projector operators, yielding the quantum master equations for systems that are exposed to strong external fields. This allows one to investigate on a common basis, the influence of nonequilibrium fluctuations and periodic electrical fields on those already mentioned dynamics and related quantum transport processes. Most importantly, such strong fluctuating fields induce a whole variety of nonlinear and nonequilibrium phenomena. A characteristic feature of such dynamics is the absence of thermal (quantum) detailed balance.

Recent developments in statistical models for fragmentation of brittle material are reviewed. The generic objective of these models is understanding the origin of the fragment size distributions (FSDs) that result from fracturing brittle material. Brittle fragmentation can be divided into two categories: (1) Instantaneous fragmentation for which breakup generations are not distinguishable and (2) continuous fragmentation for which generations of chronological fragment breakups can be identified. This categorization becomes obvious in mining industry applications where instantaneous fragmentation refers to blasting of rock and continuous fragmentation to the consequent crushing and grinding of the blasted rock fragments. A model of unstable cracks and crack-branch merging contains both of the FSDs usually related to instantaneous fragmentation: the scale invariant FSD with the power exponent (2?1/D) and the double exponential FSD which relates to Poisson process fragmentation. The FSDs commonly related to continuous fragmentation are: the lognormal FSD originating from uncorrelated breakup and the power-law FSD which can be modeled as a cascade of breakups. Various solutions to the generic rate equation of continuous fragmentation are briefly listed. Simulations of crushing experiments reveal that both cascade and uncorrelated fragmentations are possible, but that also a mechanism of maximizing packing density related to Apollonian packing may be relevant for slow compressive crushing.

This review focuses on recent developments in the theoretical, numerical and experimental study of slow dynamics in colloidal systems, with a particular emphasis on the glass transition phenomenon. Colloidal systems appear to be particularly suited for tackling the general problem of dynamic arrest, since they show a larger flexibility compared to atomic and molecular glasses because of their size and the possibility of manipulating the physical and chemical properties of the samples. Indeed, a wealth of new effects, not easily observable in molecular liquids, have been predicted and measured in colloidal systems. The slow dynamic behavior of three classes of colloidal suspension is reviewed – hard colloids, short-range attractive colloids and soft colloidal systems – selecting the model systems among the most prominent candidates for grasping the essential features of dynamic arrest. Emphasis is on the possibility of performing a detailed comparison between experimental data and theoretical predictions based on the mode coupling theory of the glass transition. Finally, the importance of understanding the system's kinetic arrest phase diagram, i.e. the regions in phase space where disordered arrested states can be expected, is stressed. When and how these states are kinetically stabilized with respect to the ordered lowest free energy phases is then examined in order to provide a framework for interpreting and developing new ideas in the study of new materials.

The standard (p°?=?0.1?MPa) molar energies of combustion in oxygen, at T?=?298.15?K, of 1-naphthalenemethanol and 2-naphthalenemethanol were measured by static bomb calorimetry. The values of the standard molar enthalpies of sublimation, at T?=?298.15?K, were obtained by Calvet microcalorimetry. Combining these results the standard molar enthalpies of formation of the compounds, in the gas phase, at T?=?298.15?K, have been calculated.

Disorder and long-range interactions are two of the key components that make material failure an interesting playfield for the application of statistical mechanics. The cornerstone in this respect has been lattice models of the fracture in which a network of elastic beams, bonds, or electrical fuses with random failure thresholds are subject to an increasing external load. These models describe on a qualitative level the failure processes of real, brittle, or quasi-brittle materials. This has been particularly important in solving the classical engineering problems of material strength: the size dependence of maximum stress and its sample-to-sample statistical fluctuations. At the same time, lattice models pose many new fundamental questions in statistical physics, such as the relation between fracture and phase transitions. Experimental results point out to the existence of an intriguing crackling noise in the acoustic emission and of self-affine fractals in the crack surface morphology. Recent advances in computer power have enabled considerable progress in the understanding of such models. Among these partly still controversial issues, are the scaling and size-effects in material strength and accumulated damage, the statistics of avalanches or bursts of microfailures, and the morphology of the crack surface. Here we present an overview of the results obtained with lattice models for fracture, highlighting the relations with statistical physics theories and more conventional fracture mechanics approaches.

We review recent experimental and theoretical results on the interaction between single-particle excitations and collective spin excitations in the superconducting state of high-Tc cuprates. We concentrate on the traces that sharpen features in the magnetic-excitation spectrum (measured by inelastic neutron scattering) and imprint in the spectra of single-particle excitations (measured, e.g. by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy, tunnelling spectroscopy, and indirectly also by optical spectroscopy). The ideal object to obtain a quantitative picture for these interaction effects is a spin-1 excitation around 40?meV, termed ‘resonance mode’. Although the total weight of this spin-1 excitation is small, the confinement of its weight to a rather narrow momentum region around the antiferromagnetic wavevector makes it possible to observe strong self-energy effects in parts of the electronic Brillouin zone. Notably, the sharpness of the magnetic excitation in energy has allowed these self-energy effects to be traced in the single-particle spectrum rather precisely. Namely, the doping and temperature dependence together with the characteristic energy and momentum behaviour of the resonance mode has been used as a tool to examine the corresponding self-energy effects in the dispersion and in the spectral line-shape of the single-particle spectra, and to separate them from similar effects due to the electron–phonon interaction. This leads to the unique possibility to single out the self-energy effects due to the spin–fermion interaction and to directly determine the strength of this interaction in high-Tc cuprate superconductors. The knowledge of this interaction is important for the interpretation of other experimental results as well as for the quest for the still unknown pairing mechanism in these interesting superconducting materials.

Although nineteen years have passed since the discovery of high temperature cuprate superconductivity 1, there is still no consensus on its physical origin. This is in large part because of a lack of understanding of the state of matter out of which the superconductivity arises. In optimally and underdoped materials, this state exhibits a pseudogap at temperatures large compared to the superconducting transition temperature 2, 3. Although discovered only three years after the pioneering work of Bednorz and Müller, the physical origin of this pseudogap behavior and whether it constitutes a distinct phase of matter is still shrouded in mystery. In the summer of 2004, a band of physicists gathered for five weeks at the Aspen Center for Physics to discuss the pseudogap. In this perspective, we would like to summarize some of the results presented there and discuss the importance of the pseudogap phase in the context of strongly correlated electron systems.

Memento, homo, qui pulvis est et pulverem reverteris. Genesis 3 Polvos serán, mas polvo enamorado. Francisco de Quevedo The physics of granular materials in ambient gases is governed by interparticle forces, gas–particle interaction, geometry of particle positions and geometry of particle contacts. At low consolidations these are strongly dependent on the external forces, boundary conditions and on the assembling procedure. For dry fine powders of micron and sub-micron particle size interparticle attractive forces are typically much higher than particle weight, and particles tend to aggregate. Because of this, cohesive powders fracture before breaking, flow and avalanche in coherent blocks much larger than the particle size. Similarly the drag force for micron sized particles is large compared to their weight for velocities as low as 1?mm/s. Due to this extreme sensitivity to interstitial gas flow, powders transit directly from plastic dense flows to fluidization without passing through collisional regimes with negligible gas interaction. These two features, strong attractive forces and strong gas interaction make powder behaviour differ qualitatively from the behaviour of large, noncohesive grains. In this paper we investigate the implications of these two features on the bulk powder behaviour. More in particular, the aim of this paper is to examine the relationship between attractive interparticle forces at grain level, with solid bulk properties at low consolidations (solid fraction, stresses), fluidization (aggregation, settling) and flow regime boundaries (plastic flow, inertial flow, fluidization and suspension). Many of the experimental results reported here are for dry and uncharged fine powders made of polymer particles of the order of 10 microns in diameter. However, the basic concepts and methodology are of general applicability.

Ultra-bright and high-coherence X-rays are now being used in synchrotron radiation facilities and X-ray free electron laser facilities. X-ray focusing techniques are essential to take full advantage of these excellent X-ray light sources. To meet the strong demand, high-quality X-ray focusing optics have been developed owing to the advancement of ultraprecision machining and measurement. State-of-the-art refractive lenses [1], zone plates [2], and Laue lenses [3] can be used to achieve X-ray focusing to a spot a few tens of nanometers. 相似文献

X-ray free-electron lasers produce brief flashes of X-rays that are of about a billion times higher peak brightness than achievable from storage ring sources. Such a tremendous jump in X-ray source capabilities, which came in 2009 when the Linac Coherent Light Source began operations, was unprecedented in the history of X-ray science. Protein structure determination through the method of macromolecular crystallography has consistently benefited from the many increases in source performance from rotating anodes to all generations of synchrotron facilities. But when confronted with the prospects of such bright beams for structural biology, enthusiastic proposals were tempered by trepidation of the effects of such beams on samples and challenges to record data [1]. A decade after these discussions (and others in the USA) on the applications of X-ray FELs for biology, the first experiments took place at LCLS, giving results that fulfilled many of the dreams of the early visionaries. In particular, the concept that diffraction representing the pristine object could be recorded before the X-ray pulse completely vaporizes the object was validated [2], confirming predictions [3] that established dose limits could be vastly exceeded using femtosecond-duration pulses. The first experiments illuminated a path to achieve room-temperature structures free of radiation damage, from samples too small to provide useful data at synchrotron facilities, as well as providing the means to carry out time-resolved crystallography at femtoseconds to milliseconds. In the five years since, progress has been substantial and rapid, invigorating the field of macromolecular crystallography [4, 5]. This phase of development is far from over, but with both the LCLS and the SPring-8 Ångström Compact Free-electron Laser (SACLA) providing facilities for measurements, the benefits of X-ray FELs are already being translated into new biological insights. 相似文献

Ellipsoidal mirror optics can produce a smaller, two-dimensional focus with diffraction-limited properties than is possible when using mirror optics in Kirkpatrick–Baez (K–B) geometry [1]. This is because ellipsoidal focusing mirrors can be designed such that they have a larger numerical aperture in the sagittal focusing direction as compared to that in the meridional focusing direction. Although ellipsoidal focusing mirrors have this crucial advantage over K–B optics, K–B optics are widely utilized as micro-/nano-focusing devices [2–8] in synchrotron radiation facilities and X-ray free electron laser facilities [9, 10]. Figure 1 shows a schematic of focusing mirror optics; Figure 1(a) shows the ellipsoidal mirror and Figure 1(b) the K–B mirror arrangement. In K–B geometry, two mirrors with a one-dimensionally curved surface, such as an elliptical cylinder, are orthogonally arranged in tandem to reflect and focus light independently in a direction perpendicular to each other under grazing-incidence conditions. Ellipsoidal focusing mirrors, which can generate a two-dimensional focusing beam by a single reflection, have a highly sloped surface with a two-dimensional aspherical shape, when compared to elliptical-cylinder mirrors that are used for line-focusing in K–B geometry. In addition, surface shapes of nano-focusing mirrors must be fabricated with nanometer-level accuracy. Therefore, fabrication of ellipsoidal nano-focusing mirrors is extremely difficult. There are no reports on ellipsoidal nano-focusing mirrors in the hard X-ray region with superior performances to provide diffraction-limited beams. 相似文献
