Electron kinetics in collisionless shock waves

We study the kinetic model of the formation of the energy spectrum of nonthermal electrons near the front of a quasilongitudinal, supercritical, collisionless shock wave. Nonresonant interactions of the electrons and the fluctuations generated by kinetic instabilities of the ions in the transition region inside the shock front play the main role in the heating and preacceleration of electrons. We calculate the electron energy spectrum in the vicinity of the shock wave and show that the heating and preacceleration of electrons occur on a scale of the order of several hundred ion inertial lengths in the vicinity of the viscous discontinuity. Although the electron distribution function is significantly nonequilibrium near the shock front, its low-energy part can be approximated by a Maxwellian distribution. The effective electron temperature T _eff ² behind the front, obtained in this manner, increases with the Mach number of the shock wave slower than it would if it followed the Hugoniot adiabat. We determine the condition under which the electron heating is ineffective but the electrons are effectively accelerated to high energies. The high-energy asymptotic behavior of the distribution function is that of a power law, with the exponent determined by the total compression ratio of the plasma, as in the case of acceleration by the first-order Fermi mechanism. The model is used to describe the case (important for applications) of acceleration of electrons by shock waves with large total Mach numbers, with the structure of these waves modified by the nonlinear interaction of nonthermal ions and consisting of an extended prefront with a smooth variation of the macroscopic parameters and a viscous discontinuity in speed with a moderate value of the Mach number.

三维光存储中折射率失配引起的球差补偿

为实现三维光存储中折射率失配引起的球差补偿,建立了光学存储系统模型,获得了折射率失配引起的波前偏差函数与存储深度的表达式.采用泽尔尼克循环多项式对波前偏差函数进行补偿展开.在双光子荧光和单光子共焦荧光读出方式下,均可获得读出荧光强度与存储深度的关系:在折射率失配引起的球差未得到补偿矫正的情况下,存储深度在200 μm左右读出荧光强度基本上下降为零;当折射率失配引起的初级球差被补偿矫正后,读出荧光强度随存储深度的下降得到较好改善;当折射率失配引起的二级球差被补偿矫正后,存储深度在1 mm内存储点强度随深度基本上没有明显地变化.并且对像差补偿方法进行了具体地分析.     

Crystal structure and chemical bonding of the intermetallic Zintl phase Yb(11)AlSb(9)

High resolution single crystal synchrotron X-ray diffraction data measured at 15(2) K were used to solve the structure of the complex intermetallic Zintl phase, Yb(11)AlSb(9) (space group Iba2), made up of Yb cations and polyanions along with isolated Sb anions. The 15(2) K cell parameters are a = 11.7383(4) ?, b = 12.3600(4) ?, c = 16.6796(6) ?. The temperature dependence of the structure was investigated through high resolution synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) data measured from 90 K to 1000 K. Rietveld refinements of the crystal structure revealed near linear thermal expansion of Yb(11)AlSb(9) with expansion coefficients of 1.49(2) × 10(-5) K(-1), 1.71(3) × 10(-5) K(-1), 1.13(1) × 10(-5) K(-1) for a, b and c, respectively. The chemical bonding in Yb(11)AlSb(9) was analyzed using atomic Hirshfeld surfaces, and the analysis supports the presence of the structural elements of Yb cations, [AlSb(4)](9-) tetrahedra, [Sb(2)](4-) dimers and isolated Sb(3-) anions. However, indications of interatomic interactions between the Zintl anions and the Yb cations were also observed.

First study of rhodium(I) complexes with chiral sulfur-containing terpenoids as catalytic systems for ketone hydrosilylation

Abstract

Using a “chiral pool” approach, a number of chiral thiolate and sulfide ligands based on natural terpenes and terpenoids have been synthesized in a few simple steps. Two new Rh-thiolate complexes with the formula [Rh(CO)₂(μ-SR)]₂ were obtained. The influence of these complexes and catalytic systems formed by combining the synthesized ligands with [Rh(CO)₂(μ-Cl)]₂ and [Rh(cod)(μ-Cl)]₂, on the reaction rate, chemoselectivity, stereoselectivity and formation of tetraphenyldisiloxane in Rh-catalyzed asymmetric hydrosilylation of acetophenone as a model reaction have been studied. Mechanistic aspects of formation of silyl enol ether as a side product in the presence of S-containing ligands are presented.     

Mössbauer spectroscopic study of high-temperature proton-conducting Ba<Subscript>2</Subscript>SnY<Subscript>1 − <Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>Fe<Subscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">x</Emphasis></Subscript>O<Subscript>6 − δ</Subscript> oxides

High-temperature proton-conducting Ba₂SnY_{1 ? x} Fe _x O_{6 ? δ} oxides are studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy on ¹¹⁹Sn and ⁵⁷Fe isotopes. For the perovskite structure, the possible states of anionic vacancies are discussed as a function of the nature of the nearest small cations. It is concluded that the energy of formation of a cation-vacancy-cation defect depends on the overall concentration of vacancies in the compound. As the result, with the increase in the water content in the Ba₂SnYO_{6 ? δ} compound, the equilibrium shifts to the tin-vacancy-tin state.
