The ground state energy of an atom of nuclear chargeZe in a magnetic fieldB is exactly evaluated to leading order asZ in the following three regions:BZ4/3,BZ4/3 andZ4/3BZ3. In each case this is accomplished by a modified Thomas-Fermi (TF) type theory. We also analyze these TF theories in detail, one of their consequences being the nonintuitive fact that atoms are spherical (to leading order) despite the leading order change in energy due to theB field. This paper complements and completes our earlier analysis [1], which was primarily devoted to the regionsBZ3 andBZ3 in which a semiclassical TF analysis is numerically and conceptually wrong. There are two main mathematical results in this paper, needed for the proof of the exactitude of the TF theories. One is a generalization of the Lieb-Thirring inequality for sums of eigenvalues to include magnetic fields. The second is a semiclassical asymptotic formula for sums of eigenvalues that isuniform in the fieldB.Work partially supported by U.S. National Science Foundation grant PHY90-19433 A02Work partially supported by U.S. National Science Foundation grant DMS 92-03829Work partially supported by the Heraeus Stiftung and the Research Fund of the University of Iceland. 相似文献
An expansion of finite plasma clots into the background neutral gas is studied numerically. The presented model includes the quasineutrality violation as well as the interpenetration of plasma and neutral gas at the boundary of the plasma. We estimate the region of plasma parameters where the model is correct. Space distributions of main plasma parameters, cooling of electrons and the process of inter-penetration of the plasma and the neutral gas are analysed as well as an empiric formula for electron temperature is found. Finally, it is shown that the most intensive plasma-gas inter-penetration occurs in the case where the initial plasma and gas densities are the same. 相似文献
The acid-catalyzed and water-catalyzed solvolysis ofbenzoylphenyldiazomethane (1) have been studied in water and in t-butanol-water mixtures, the mole fraction of water (nH2O) being varied from 0·75-1·00. Increasing t-butanol concentrations produce a pronounced decrease in both kH⊕ and kH2O. In the “water reaction” mutually compensatory changes of AH and AS are associated with the rate variations, with minima in AH and AS at about nH2O = 0·95. In addition it was found that the magnitude of the salt effect of (n-Bu)4NCl on the rate of hydrolysis of 1 in water at 25° is much larger than that of LiCl, NaCl and NaBr. Assuming that the rate of the “water reaction” is largely determined by water acidity, the data are suggestive for the existence of a relation between water acidity and solvent structural integrity in highly aqueous t-butanol-water solutions. 相似文献
Maps of strengthening by small (semi)coherent precipitates homogeneously dispersed in the grains have been constructed. They can show the most probable dislocation-particle interaction mechanism and the strengthening effect of a given dispersion of particles. As an application, the effect of-Ni3(Al, Ti) and M23C6 precipitation in austenitic steels is discussed. 相似文献

Water-soluble and insoluble, organic and inorganic, natural and man-made aerosol particles participate in vapor-liquid, vapor-solid (ice), and liquid-solid phase transitions in the atmosphere. Hydrosol particles (aerosol particles that have been transferred into water droplets) nucleate ice through freezing. A small without scavenging or being scavenged by another aerosol particle. It is also difficult to imagine that pure mineral particles can be lifted from soil surfaces. In view of this, an ice-nucleating site may be a much smaller particle attached to a larger clay particle. To this category belong, e.g., silver iodide-clay mixed particles. Limited studies indicate that decaying leaves and forest litter under the surface of soils are a potential source of biogenic ice-forming nuclei but that their contribution to the atmosphere is very limited. Research should be directed to study possible relations between cloud condensation nuclei and ice-forming nuclei derived from natural organic compounds (terpenes, leaf-derived nuclei, bacteria, etc.).
A balance must be maintained between large cloud chambers, in which duplication of in-cloud processes is possible, and the special instrumentation which provides information about the modes of ice nucleation on aerosol particles. The two modes of instrumentation should supplement each other.
The greatest difficulty in attempting to make a comparison between the number of ice-forming nuclei estimated in the laboratory and the number in a cloud is the lack of knowledge of the time-temperature-humidity history of the aerosol particles. In nature, the ability of an aerosol particle to nucleate ice may be destroyed or“poisoned“ in the presence of pollutants. An aerosol particle may, on the other hand, become an activated or warmer ice-forming nucleus, e.g.,after the sublimation of ice once formed on it. The temperature of ice nucleation is not a singular property of a particle; the warmest temperatures of ice nucleation of, e.g., particles of a certain soil 10cm in diameter are-15°C,-10°C, and-8°C for nucleation through freezing, condensation followed by freezing and contact, respectively (ref.26). The progress made in instrumentation permits studies of the modes of ice nucleation. Understanding the physical and chemical processes taking place in clouds makes estimates of the rates of ice particle formation more realistic (Young [ref.157]).

The conceptual basis and main results of a new model of the dissociative electrical double layer augmented with Lubetkin-Middleton-Ottewill (LMO) dissociative law are summarized. The main results are: the derivation of fundamental limiting laws of planar repulsions in the limit of surface contact, and their transition to the Debye-Hückel limiting laws at infinite separation; the prediction of stronger and longer-range electrostatic forces, quantitatively and consistently accounting for repulsions in colloidal montmorillonites; the discovery of the classical Debye-Hückel interionic effect being operative in increasing double-layer dissociation by lowering the activities of diffuse ions via the LMO law; the prediction of maxima of Stern potentials in spherical symmetry without any further assumptions, and the prediction of no maxima for platelike montmorillonites. In the light of these new insights, the concepts of "hydration forces" and other close-range "non-DLVO" forces may need to be revised, as well as the origin of the maxima of electrophoretic mobilities (Stern potentials) for spherical colloids. 相似文献
Herein, we report a stereospecific E-olefin dipeptide isostere synthesis that can be used to make gram quantities of the Phe-Phe isostere desired for eliminating a specific backbone H-bond donor and acceptor in the Alzheimer's disease related Abeta peptide. The Phe19-Phe20 E-olefin analogue of Abeta(1-40) was prepared by solid-phase peptide synthesis and was subjected to amyloidogenesis conditions. This analogue can aggregate into spherical morphologies but does not progress on to form protofibrils or fibrils as is the case for the all-amide sequence, providing insight into the structural requirements for amyloidogenesis. 相似文献
