On an application of Hall's representatives theorem to a finite geometry problem

It is well-known thatn points not belonging to a hyperplane determine at leastn hyperplanes. The possible configurations of hyperplanes in the case when the number of hyperplanes is equal ton are known, too. In this paper we obtain these results by means of Hall's representatives theorem. The setting is that of a finite geometry.     

Laser properties of coactivated YAP: Nd free of colour centres

YAP:Nd, Cr grown under Ar-H₂ or Ar-He-H₂ atmosphere possesses good energy transfer from Cr³⁺ to Nd³⁺ but suffers from the colour centre formation. The centre formation was completely prevented using further admixture of Ce³⁺ and 10^–4–10^–3 wt. % Fe. Small luminescence quenching of Cr³⁺ or Nd³⁺ due to iron ions is negligible in the presence of Ce³⁺. The crystals may be also heavily doped with Nd³⁺ because the increased pumping efficiency compensates the shortening of the luminescence lifetime. YAP: Nd, Ce, Cr, Fe is advisible active laser material particularly for all the types of pulsed lasers.     

铜铝合金中γ_2相沉淀的分析电镜研究

Cu-12.7(wt)%Al合金从900℃高温淬至365℃～500℃温度范围等温不同时间(30秒至15分钟)的试样中形成了大量树枝状的γ_2相沉淀粒子。应用配有X线能谱仪(XEDS)和电子能量损失谱仪(EELS)的分析电子显微镜(JEOL JEM-2000FX型)对上还试样研究,结果表明:这些γ_2相粒子具有富铝的“核心”,长大到粒子线度大于约800nm后以不稳定方式生长成“花朵”状。生长过程中伴随着溶质元素Al由基体向γ_2相内的富集。而且在γ_2相粒子内部呈现出Spinodal分解组织的形貌特征,表明γ_2粒子内形成了化学成分调幅。EELS分析表明试样含氧。     

New triterpenes from a Chinese medicine, goreishi

Besides serratagenic acid, three new ursane-type triterpenes, named goreishic acids I (1), II (2), and III (3), were isolated from a Chinese medicine, Goreishi (the feces of Trogopterus xanthipes Milne-Edwards). The structures of 1, 2 and 3 were respectively determined as 2 alpha,3 beta-dihydroxyursa-12,18-dien-28-oic acid, 2 alpha,3 beta-dihydroxy-23-norursa-12,18-dien-28-oic acid and 2 alpha,3 beta-dihydroxy-24-norursa-12,18-dien-28-oic acid on the basis of spectroscopic evidence.
