The X-ray diffraction crystal structure determination and electron impact fragmentations of the gaseous ions of 3-(p-chlorophenyl)-1-methyltriazene-1-oxide and its 3-methyl derivative

The decomposition of the gaseous positive ions of the title compounds obtained by electron impact have been completely mapped. The X-ray structural determinations of these two substances established their identity definitively and allowed to reveal some interesting features of these molecules of pharmaceutical interest.     

Scattering of electromagnetic waves by a perfectly conducting body with a chiral coating

We propose a numerical method for solving problems of electromagnetic scattering in the resonance spectrum of frequencies by a 3D ideally conducting arbitrary-shaped body covered by a homogeneous chiral coating. A program package for calculating the characteristics of the scattered field and checking the accuracy of the obtained solution based on the above method is described briefly. Some results of numerical calculations are given, which are useful for a study of the influence of “chirality” on the scattering properties of absorbing coatings.

Bromination of 4-substituted thiazolylhydrazones

4-Phenyl- and 4-methylthiazolylhydrazones were brominated in chloroform and acetic acid. The use of 1.5 equivalents of bromine led to the exclusive formation of the 5-halo derivatives. Effects of substituents on the thiazole ring and of the hydrazone fragment aromatic ring on the course of the reaction were discovered.Urals State Technical University-UPI, 620002 Yekaterinburg.

Two- and three-dimensional analysis of bose-einstein correlations inπ +/K+p interactions at 250 GeV/c

The NA22 data onπ ^? π ^? correlations are analyzed in terms of a number of two- and three-dimensional parametrizations (Gaussian space-time, Goldhaber, Bowler string-like, Bertsch hydrodynamical, Kopylov-Podgoretskii, etc.). Contrary to the results obtained for e⁺e^? andµp collisions, the Goldhaber parametrization, as well as string-like models, fail in describing the hadron-hadron data. Better fits are obtained in the framework of surface-emitting fireball-like models, both when including and excluding hydrodynamical expansion of nuclear matter. Our results indicate that pion radiation occurs at earlier stages of matter evolution than in nuclear collisions.     

X-ray fluorescence intensity distribution in circular specimens

Summary The relative X-ray fluorescence (XRF) intensities for annular source and various annular specimen are measured with a Ge-Li detection system and calculated by the Monte Carlo numerical techniques (MCNT).Kα X-ray intensities of annular specimens with different radii prepared from a pure-molybdenum foil are measured and it is seen that the measured values are in good agreement with the values calculated by MCNT. The variation of the fluorescence intensity due to the collimator radius is also studied. The differences between the MCNT and experimental results are discussed in terms of the possible sources of errors.     

Coaxial Discharge and Transverse Magnetic Field

The study deals with the effect of an applied transverse magnetic field on the dynamics and parameters of the focused and expanded plasma in a coaxial discharge. The experimental results were found with a 3 kJ Plasma focus device of a Mather geometry. The discharge takes place in hydrogen gas with base pressure of 0.5 Torr. The experiments are conducted with a 10 kV bank voltage, which corresponds to 100 kA peak discharge current with rise time 8 μs. Helmholtz magnetic coils are placed outside the expansions chamber to produce a transverse magnetic field with intensity 280 G perpendicular to the plasma expanded from the coaxial electrodes. The investigations have shown that the plasma flow along the expansion chamber axis is restricted when applying the externally transverse magnetic field and the maximum axial velocity of the expanded plasma is decreased by 33%. X-ray probe has been used to measure the focused plasma electron temperature (T_e). The experimental results and the calculations showed that T_e is decreased from 2.2 keV to 800 eV with the application of a transverse magnetic field. The expanded plasma electron temperature and density have been measured by an electric double probe, the results cleared that the expanded plasma electron temperature is decreased by 2.6 times while its density is increased by 9 times, when a transverse magnetic field is applied.
