Effective Masses of Pentaquark Θ+ in Nuclear Matter

The properties of baryons in nuclear matter are analysed in the relativistic mean-field theory(RMF). It is found that the scalar field σ meson affects the properties of baryon at high density. A density dependent scalar coupling gσN is determined according to the idea of quark-meson coupling model and extended to RMF. It is shown that gσN affects the property of nuclear matter weakly at low density, but strongly at high density. The relation between the scalar density ρ_S and the nuclear density ρ and the effective mass of the pentaquark Θ⁺ are studied with the density dependent coupling constant. The density dependent scalar coupling obviously affects the effective masses of baryons in nuclear matter, especially at high density.     

Potential formation and high density plasma production on the tandem mirror GAMMA 10

GAMMA 10 experiments have advanced in high density experiments after the last EPS Workshop where we reported high density plasma production by using an ion cyclotron range of frequency heating at a high harmonic frequency and neutral beam injection in the central cell. Recently a high density plasma was obtained with much improved reproducibility than before and without degradation of diamagnetic signal. The high density plasma was attained by adjusting the spacing of the conducting plates installed in the anchor transition regions. Dependencies of particle confinement time, ion energy confinement time and plasma confining potential on plasma density were obtained for the first time in the high density region.

Superdense matter

We review recent work on the phase structure of QCD at very high baryon density. We introduce the phenomenon of color superconductivity and discuss the use of weak coupling methods. We study the phase structure as a function of the number of flavors and their masses. We also introduce effective theories that describe low energy excitations at high baryon density. Finally, we comment on the possibility of kaon condensation at very large baryon density.

Defect-induced transitions in synchronous asymmetric exclusion processes

The effects of a single local defect in synchronous asymmetric exclusion processes are investigated via theoretical analysis and Monte Carlo simulations. Our theoretical analysis shows that there are four possible stationary phases, i.e., the (low density, low density), (low density, high density), (high density, low density) and (high density, high density) in the system. In the (high density, low density) phase, the system can reach a maximal current which is determined by the local defect, but independent of boundary conditions. A phenomenological domain wall approach is developed to predict dynamic behavior at phase boundaries. The effects of defective hopping probability p on density profiles and currents are investigated. Our investigation shows that the value of p determines phase transitions when entrance rate α and exit rate β are fixed. Density profiles and currents obtained from theoretical calculations are in agreement with Monte Carlo simulations.     

Binary nonadditive hard-sphere mixtures at high dimension

At high spatial dimension, a suitably scaled classical system of interacting particles truncates at second virial terms. A binary mixture of nonadditive hard spheres with sufficiently repulsive interaction between unlike particles decomposes at sufficiently high density into two coexisting phases. The region around the critical density behaves classically.     

Determination of Orientations in Deformed U--U Collisions at 0.52GeV/u

The ART model is applied to study the deformed UU collision at HIRFL-CSR energy area corresponding to the high baryon density region in the QCD phase diagram. The time evolution of central baryon (energy) densities in central collisions at E_b =0.52GeV/u shows that different orientation collisions will lead to different lifetimes of high density, especially tip--tip UU collisions which have an extend lifetime for the high density phase by almost a factor of 2 compared to the body--body orientation collisions. In order to pick out the interesting tip--tip like events from a mass of random orientation collisions, we study the relation between stopping power R and impact parameter b in different orientation collisions and find that it can enhance the purity of tip--tip like events when R increases. Therefore, the high density and long lifetime events can be effectively distinguished by R selection.     

脉冲放电脱硫反应器中高能电子密度分布的光谱研究

脉冲流光放电产生的大于等于11.2 eV的高能电子能将处于基态的氮分子激发到N₂(C3Π_u)态,测试脉冲流光放电时的N₂(C3Π_u→B3Πg)发射光谱相对强度可以得出脉冲流光放电产生的高能电子的密度。实验在室温常压下研究了空气中线-板式脉冲流光放电脱硫反应器内高能电子密度分布情况,并研究了脉冲电压、反应器的线线间距对反应器内高能电子密度分布的影响。实验结果表明,反应器内的高能电子主要集中在放电线附近高电场区内,随着离放电线的距离增大,高能电子密度减小;脉冲电压对高能电子密度有很大影响,随着电压的升高,高能电子密度基本呈线性增大;线板间距固定,线线间距为线板间距的0.6～1倍时,反应器内高能电子密度分布较为均匀。     

13.56 MHz/2 MHz柱状感性耦合等离子体参数的对比研究

通过Langmuir双探针和发射光谱诊断方法,对比研究了驱动频率为13.56 MHz和2 MHz柱状感性耦合等离子体中电子密度和电子温度的径向分布规律.结果表明:在高频和低频放电中,输入功率的增加对等离子体参数产生了不同的影响,高频放电中主要提升了电子密度,低频放电中则主要提升了电子温度.固定气压为10 Pa,分别由高频和低频驱动时,电子密度的径向分布均为"凸型".而电子温度的分布差异比较明显,高频驱动时,电子温度在腔室中心较为平坦,在边缘略有上升;低频驱动时,电子温度随径向距离的增加而逐渐下降.为了进一步分析造成这种差异的原因,在相同放电条件下采集了氩等离子体的发射光谱图,利用分支比法计算了亚稳态粒子的数密度,发现电子温度的径向分布始终与亚稳态粒子的径向分布相反.继续升高气压到100 Pa,发现不论高频还是低频放电,电子密度的径向分布均从"凸型"转变为"马鞍形",较低气压时电子密度的均匀性有了一定的提升,但低频的均匀性更好.

A Model for Diffuse Breakdown in High Pressure Gases at Homogeneous Electric Field Strengs

A model of the breakdown in high pressure gases is presented taking into consideration the finite voltage rise time at the discharge electrodes and a finite initial charge carrier density in the gap. Several types of breakdown could be distinguished important for several applications. Thus, the range of existence of high pressure laser discharges at a given preionization density and circuit parameters can be calculated. Moreover, the change in the breakdown characteristics of high pressure gases at high temperatures is explained. This behaviour seems to be important for understanding the physical processes in circuit breaker chambers.     

Preparation and characterization of nano and microcrystalline ZnO thin films by PLD

Nano and microcrystalline ZnO thin films were prepared on glass substrates using pulsed laser deposition technique under a vacuum of 3 × 10⁻⁷ Torr at different laser power density. Composition analyses show that the films deposited at low laser power density have more structural defects than the film deposited at high laser power density. It confirms that the content of Zn in free-state decreased greatly at high laser power density. Atomic force microscopy analysis shows that the surface roughness of the deposited films increases with an increase in laser power density. X-ray diffraction analyses show that all the films are oriented along (0 0 2) direction independently on the laser power density applied. The structural quality increases with an increase in laser power density. It is due to the fact that the increase of laser power density leads to the enhancement of peak intensity. The increase of laser power density reduces the film transmission in the visible range of the spectra. The optical band gap value is found to be in the range from 3.42 to 3.39 eV. It shows that the optical band gap value decreases with an increase in laser power density. FTIR analysis shows that the hydrated oxide content in the deposited films decreases with an increase in laser power density.     

Critical phenomena in open quantum systems and collective excitations

In quantum systems at high level density, the states of the system are mixed strongly via the continuum of decay channels. This mixing creates states with large external collectivity if the level density reaches some critical value. Besides this external collectivity, the states may have some internal collectivity created by (internal) residual interaction in the corresponding closed system. The cross section pattern at high level density is determined by the interplay of internal and external collectivity.

Spatial variation behaviors of argon inductively coupled plasma during discharge mode transition

A Langmuir probe and an ICCD are employed to study the discharge mode transition in Ar inductively coupled plasma. Electron density and plasma emission intensity are measured during the E (capacitive discharge) to H (inductive discharge) mode transitions at different pressures. It is found that plasma exists with a low electron density and a weak emission intensity in the E mode, while it has a high electron density and a strong emission intensity in the H mode. Meanwhile, the plasma emission intensity spatial (2D image) profile is symmetrical in the H mode, but the 2D image is an asymmetric profile in the E mode. Moreover, the electron density and emission intensity jump up discontinuously at high pressure, but increase almost continuously at the E to H mode transition under low pressure.     

Edge operational regimes in tokamaks

Edge operational regimes in tokamaks are described using mostly experimental results of ASDEX Upgrade. Emphasis is put on high confinement mode (H-mode) at medium and high densities up to the density limit. Implications for the physics of H-mode and the density limit are discussed.     

Effect of energy density on the machining character of C/SiC composites by picosecond laser

The effect of laser energy density on the machining character of C/SiC composites by picosecond laser was investigated using two machining modes: single ring line and helical lines scanning. For single ring line scanning mode, the width and depth of machining grooves increased nonlinearly with the increase of laser energy density. Moreover, periodic surface structures (ripples) were generated at relative low laser energy density and disappeared at high energy density. With the increasing energy density, the oxygen content of machining debris increased dramatically. For helical lines scanning mode, the depth of machining grooves increased nonlinearly with the increasing laser energy density. With the increasing energy density, the oxygen content of machining debris also increased dramatically. The machining character showed as nano-scale laser-induced ripples, pores, strip structures and bubble pits. Finally, micro-holes of high aspect ratio were obtained in the mode of helical lines scanning by removing multiple layers.     

Magnetic susceptibility and short-range order in iron pnictides: Anisotropic J1-J2 Heisenberg model

The electron spin relaxation times by piezoelectric and polar optical phonon scattering in GaAs are calculated using the formula derived from the projection-reduction method. The temperature, magnetic field, and electron density dependences of the relaxation time are investigated. The electrons are found to be scattered mostly by piezoelectric phonons at low temperatures and polar optical phonons at high temperatures. The electron density affects the magnetic field dependence of the relaxation time at low temperatures but have only slight affects at high temperatures.     

Baryon flow at SIS energies and beyond

We calculate the baryon flow P_x/A(y) in the energy range from 0.25 to 4.0A GeV in a relativistic transport model for Ni + Ni and Au + Au collisions employing various models for the baryon self-energies. We find that to describe the flow data of the FOPI Collaboration above 1A GeV the strength of the vector potential has to be reduced at high relative momentum or at high density. The latter phenomenon leads to a softening of the nuclear equation of state at high density.
