Non-destructive analysis of archeological samples by energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence

Summary A non-destructive method is described for the determination of major and minor constituents in archeological specimens by energy-dispersive X-ray fluorescence. Homogeneity tests are made by measuring at various sites of the specimen. In the same way, mean values are obtained for inhomogeneous specimen without taking samples. For calibration, powder standards are used. In case of the determination of elements with numbers up to 14 (Si) a vacuum chamber is used and the dimensions of the specimens are limited by the dimensions of that vacuum chamber, whereas for the determination of elements from K up to U specimens of any size, form or weight are suitable.

Zerstörungsfreie Analyse von archäologischen Proben mit Hilfe der Energie-dispersiven Röntgenfluorescenzanalyse

Zusammenfassung Eine zerstörungsfreie Methode für die Bestimmung von Haupt- und Nebenbestandteilen in archäologischen Proben mit Hilfe der Energie-dispersiven Röntgenfluorescenzanalyse wird beschrieben. Für Homogenitätstests wird an mehreren Stellen der Probe gemessen. In der gleichen Weise werden für inhomogene Proben Mittelwerte erhalten ohne Probenahme. Für die Eichung werden Pulverstandards verwendet. Im Falle der Bestimmung von Elementen mit Ordnungszahlen bis 14 (Si) wird eine Vakuumkammer eingesetzt, und die Dimensionen der Proben sind durch die Dimensionen dieser Vakuumkammer begrenzt, während für die Bestimmung der Elemente K bis U Proben jeder Größe, jeder Form oder jeden Gewichts verwendbar sind.

Structural aspects for grain boundary segregation studies

     

The effect of surface treatment on the alignment and phase transition of a polypeptide liquid crystal

Poly(γ-benzyl-L-glutamate) (PBLG), was utilized as a surface coating agent in order to obtain parallel molecular orientation in thin layers of PBLG liquid-crystalline solutions confined between coated surfaces. It was found that in a thickness range much larger than the cholesteric pitch value, the texture was predominantly planar cholesteric. At film thickness comparable or smaller than the pitch, isotropic spherulites developed from a homeotropic nematic phase. Because of the coupling between the solution concentration and nematic director, as well as large differences in the elastic moduli of PBLG liquid-crystalline solutions, the long-range intermolecular interaction was unfavorable. Competition between parallel orientation induced by the surface coating of PBLG and inherent perpendicular orientation induced by PBLG molecules in the bulk would favor a short-range helix-coil transition mechanism, which results into a reentrant isotropic phase.     

Effect of crack tip sharpness on the strength of vulcanized rubbers

The effect of crack tip sharpness on crack propagation in vulcanized rubbers has been studied. For very sharp cracks, tearing is found to occur on a small scale at very low energies not far above the threshold required for the onset of mechanical crack growth. The “small-scale” tearing energies show relatively little variation for rubbers that differ widely in tear strength as normally measured. Thus the latter property appears to be strongly influenced by variations in the ability of rubbers to promote tip blunting. The small-scale tear behavior is of relevance to other fracture phenomena, including cutting by sharp objects and tensile failure. Natural variations in tip sharpness occur during cyclic or time-dependent mechanical crack growth and influence the form of the crack growth characteristics.     

Ion structure determinations and ion—molecule reactions by double quadrupole mass spectrometry

The QQ mass spectrometer is shown to be applicable to ion structure determination via collision-induced dissociations of mass-selected ions. The instrument can be scanned so as to record the products of dissociation as well as those of ion—molecule association reactions. The dissociations correspond to those observed at high kinetic energy in mass-analyzed ion kinetic energy spectrometers and the association reactions show parallels with reactions seen in ion cyclotron resonance spectroscopy and in high-pressure mass spectrometry     

Numerical study on performance of disk MHD generator using frozen inert gas plasma

In an magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) generator using a frozen inert gas plasma (FIP), the availability of a frozen argon plasma, the influence of plasma uniformity at the generator inlet on the performance, and the feasibility of a large-scale generator are numerically examined by /spl gamma/-/spl theta/ two-dimensional simulation. The FIP is produced by pre-ionizing inert gas without an alkali metal seed at the generator inlet, then the ionization degree of the plasma is kept almost constant in the whole of the channel because of considerable slow recombination of the inert gas just like frozen reaction plasma. It is found that not only helium, but also argon frozen plasma MHD generation is realized, although highly accurate control of inlet ionization degree is necessary for argon. It is important to reduce the nonuniformity of plasma properties at the generator inlet in order to raise the maximum enthalpy extraction ratio. Even for the large-scale generator with 1000-MW thermal input, the ionization degree is kept almost constant in the whole of the channel and the high performance is obtainable. This result is extremely attractive for the FIP MHD generator.
