Extension to R + n+1 of singular integrals and fractional integrals

In this paper, a natural R ₊ ⁿ⁺¹ extension of singular integrals, i.e.,T _κ:f→K*φ _t *t with K a standard C-Z kernel and ϕ usual one, is investigated. One of the main results is: Let (dμ, udx) ∈C₁ and u-Mw, w∈A_∞, then T_k is of type (L^p(udx), L^p(dμ)). As a related topic, a maximal operator is proved to be of type , where , provided (dμ, udx) ∈C₁ and u∈ A_∞. Supported by National Science Foundation of China     

Spectroscopic factors of9Be,10B and13C from (d,t) reactions

The differential cross sections of tritons from the (d, t) reaction on⁹Be,¹⁰B and¹³C targets have been measured in the angular range of 5° _LAB110° with relatively small errors, 5%. The experimental data were analysed in terms of the standard DWBA using both zero-range and exact finite-range approaches.     

Measurement ofD(\vec p,p)D elastic scattering at 10.0, 12.0, 14.1 and 16.5 MeV especially for small forward and extreme backward scattering angles

The elastic scattering was investigated especially in the Coulomb sensitive scattering regions. Angular distributions of the differential cross section and of the analyzing powerA _y, with emphasis on small scattering angles, were measured at 10.0 and 14.1 MeV. For extreme backward angles up toJ _c.m.=179° the differential cross section was measured at 12.0, 14.1 and 16.5 MeV. The data have been compared with recent Faddeev calculations based on the realistic meson-exchange Paris potential and including an approximate Coulomb correction. There are discrepancies between the data and the calculations especially for the analyzing power. This indicates that the approximate treatment of Coulomb effects and possibly also the purely nuclear part of the calculations need to be improved.

Na2SnO3系催化剂在甲烷氧化偶联反应中的催化性能及表面碱性的探讨

1982年Keller和Bhasin以金属氧化物为催化剂从甲烷制得少量乙烯和乙烷的工作引起了各国研究工作者的重视,此后报道了许多有研究价值的催化剂,其中添加碱金属对提高催化性能所起的作用引起了普遍的关注.Lunsford等首先用添加Li~+的MgO作催化剂,发现催化剂表面碱性增强的同时,生成C_2烃类产物的选择性明显增加.随后Iwamatu等在MgO中添加Na~+及Rb~+盐,Jones等在Mn~(4+)/SiO_2中添加Na~+,Otsuka等在Sm_2O_3中添加LiCl作为甲烷氧化偶联催化剂进行了研究,这些结果均表明,因添加碱金属使催化剂呈现     

A modified program for computation of formation constants of synergetic extraction complexes with two-phase titrations by using the Marquardt-Fletcher algorithm

A modified computer program SCTPT for the computation of formation constants of extraction complexes with two-phase pH titration data by using the Marquardt-Fletcher algorithm is described. It can be used to deal with extraction systems which consist of a metal, an acidic extractant and a neutral synergistic reagent with no need of new subroutine. It has been applied successfully to the Pb-PMBP(1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-benzoyl-pyrazolone-5)-TBP (tributyl phosphate) system. The results obtained are in agreement with those published in the literature.
