Semiempirical calculation of the fine structure of the indium ion

Structuring Multi-attribute Value Hierarchies

The first stage in a multi-attribute value analysis is the development of a hierarchical structure of the attributes of the problem. This paper reports the process of developing such a structure for the problem of choosing a suitable mode of transport for radioactive waste. The initial hierarchy of attributes went through several stages of development as new insights emerged about the nature of the problem. Some of the reasons behind this restructuring are discussed, and several important questions about the structuring process are formulated.     

Decay of neutron-rich Ga isotopes near N = 50 at PARRNe

The PARRNe facility has been used to produce neutron-rich isotopes ^83,84Gaby the ISOL method. Their decay has been studied, and β-γ coincidence and γ-γ coincidence data were collected as a function of time. The first two excited levels in ⁸³Ge and the first excited level in ⁸⁴Ge have been measured for the first time.     

Collisional parameters of H2O lines: effects of vibration

A complex semiclassical model for the calculation of line widths and shifts of H₂O broadened by N₂, derived from the Robert and Bonamy approach, is tested by comparisons with measurements for selected transitions in various vibrational bands. The lines retained, which involve rotational states with Kc=J or J−1 have been chosen for two reasons. The first is that they show large variations of the widths with J and thus enable a severe test of the model. The second is that, as explained in this paper, they are well-suited for the study of the effects of vibration on the collisional parameters. The measured values have been extracted from an updated version of a database built years ago (JQSRT 52 (1994) 481) that contains all available measurements. Comparisons between experimental and calculated widths and shifts at room temperature illustrate the quality of the model and clearly demonstrate, for the first time, that there is a vibrational dependence of the broadening. Values of collisional parameters are first studied in fundamental bands. This shows that the theoretical approach accounts for most of the dependence of broadening and shifting on rotational quantum numbers: the variations of γ, which reach a factor of nearly 20 from low to high J values, are correctly accounted for by the model as are some specific features of the shifts δ. Analysis confirms that the bending and stretching vibrations have significantly different effects on δ, due to the vibrational dependence of the intermolecular potential. On the other hand, differences on the widths are rather small with slightly smaller broadening for lines of the bending band. Calculations show that there is a spectroscopic effect, due to the larger rotational constant A in the v₂=1 state. Calculations made for overtone bands involving numerous quanta of the stretching vibration are then presented. They predict that a significant dependence of the width should be observed for high J lines due to the effect of vibration on the interaction potential. This is confirmed by comparisons with measurements for lines involving a change of three and four quanta of stretching vibration.     

Methods for implementing the stream boundary condition in DSMC computations

In the direct simulation Monte‐Carlo (DSMC) method for simulating rarefied gas flows, the velocities of simulator particles that cross a simulation boundary and enter the simulation space are typically generated using the acceptance–rejection procedure that samples the velocities from a truncated theoretical velocity distribution that excludes low and high velocities. This paper analyses an alternative technique, where the velocities of entering particles are obtained by extending the simulation procedures to a region adjacent to the simulation space, and considering the movement of particles generated within that region during the simulation time step. The alternative method may be considered as a form of acceptance–rejection procedure, and permits the generation of all possible velocities, although the population of high velocities is depleted with respect to the theoretical distribution. Nevertheless, this is an improvement over the standard acceptance–rejection method. Previous implementations of the alternative method gave a number flux lower than the theoretical number required. Two methods for obtaining the correct number flux are presented. For upstream boundaries in high‐speed flows, the alternative method is more computationally efficient than the acceptance–rejection method. However, for downstream boundaries, the alternative method is extremely inefficient. The alternative method, with the correct theoretical number flux, should therefore be used in DSMC computations in favour of the acceptance–rejection method for upstream boundaries in high‐speed flows.

The study of the influence of uniaxial stress on impurity complexes in silicon

The influence of external uniaxial stress on the different indium-donor complexes in silicon has been studied using the perturbed γ –γ angular correlation (PAC) method. Such effect of an applied stress is detected by means of the probe atoms situated at different complexes in the sample. The current results showed that the responses of the probes in an extrinsic silicon samples are found to be dissimilar for the same value of stress. Such change in the local environments of the probe atoms could be associated with the various strain field created by the implantations of varied size of impurities. The phosphorous implantation in silicon has even lead to the complete absence of observable effect of the applied stress suggesting significant lose of the elasticity of the sample.
