The microscopic state of the positive muon in the transition metal dichalcogenide 2H-NbSe2 was studied using the muon spin relaxation method (μ+SR). We found that the μ+SR spectra consist of two components. The ratio of the two components and the dynamics of the muon change at 140 K, at the
charge-density-wave transition temperature (32 K), and again at the superconducting transition temperature (7 K). We discuss
the relation between conduction electron properties and the muon's behavior.

This article reports the accumulation effect of the 3He originating from tritium β decay; 3He created in solid remains in it, while one in liquid diffuses and goes out to the vapor gas. We observed this effect through
the neutron detection from muon catalyzed fusion phenomenon (μCF), and gave it qualitative understanding, by which the muon
transfer rate from (dμ) and (tμ) to helium was derived.

The diluted antiferromagnet MnxMg1-xTiO3 transforms from the antiferromagnet (AF) to the spin-glass (SG) system at x ∼ 0.6. In order to study the microscopic nature
of spin dynamics and ordering, we performed muon spin relaxation measurements for the powder samples of x=1.0∼ 0.55 and examined
the concentration dependence. From these results, a drastic change in the spin dynamics was found to occur at x ∼ 0.6.

At the RIKEN-RAL Muon Facility, μ- to α sticking Kβ X-rays were observed for the first time taking advantage of the pulsed beam structure. The precision of the present measurements
was insufficient to distinguish between theoretical models, however the observed Kβ/Kα X-ray intensity ratio tends to be smaller than most of these theoretical predictions.

Cellulose, the main component of plant cell walls, is degradable in nature. However, to the best of our knowledge, this is the first report that compares the biodegradability of cellulose fibers with different structures in natural waters. River water, brackish water, and seawater were collected from the Kamo River and Osaka Bay, Japan. Biodegradation of cellulose fibers with different structures and crystallinities, ramie, mercerized ramie, and regenerated cellulose fibers in the collected natural water was investigated in the dark at 20 °C for 30 days. The primary and aerobic ultimate biodegradability were evaluated by weight loss and biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) tests, respectively. In the weight-loss test, cellulose fibers were found to be degraded by more than 50% in any natural water within 30 days. However, in the BOD test, biodegradation was diminished, with values of 40%, 20–30%, and 2–10% in river water, brackish water, and seawater, respectively. These results indicate that cellulose fibers are easily degraded into fine fragments, but it is difficult to cause their ultimate decomposition into water and carbon dioxide. Existence of such a tendency in the degree of biodegradation among the cellulose fibers remains unclear. The molecular weight of cellulose fibers in natural water was also measured during their degradation. The degradation behavior in river water and seawater was observed to be different from that in brackish water. The results thus obtained indicate that the microorganisms and enzymes that degrade cellulose fibers differ depending on the natural water, which influences the degree and mechanism of biodegradation.
This paper describes a collocation method for numerically solving Cauchy-type linear singular integro-differential equations.
The numerical method is based on the transformation of the integro-differential equation into an integral equation, and then
applying a collocation method to solve the latter. The collocation points are chosen as the Chebyshev nodes. Uniform convergence
of the resulting method is then discussed. Numerical examples are presented and solved by the numerical techniques. 相似文献
The spin dynamics of 2-dimensional ferromagnetic monolayers of [MnSb/Sb] were studied by the
+SR method using pulsed sub-surface muons with a momentum of 18 – 25 MeV/c. A gradual growth of a static field along the
+ spin below 200 K and a divergent increase of the relaxation rate at around 25 K were observed in the 1 monolayer sample, related to the critical fluctuations in this magnetic superlattice. 相似文献
A method of low-temperature nuclear orientation of bulk amount of Bi was developed utilizing a ferromagnetic compound BiMn. The radioactive isotopes of Bi,207Bi and206Bi, were oriented by this method and the hyperfine field at Bi in BiMn was determined to be ±(940?130+180) kOe. No reorientation effect was observed at the isomers in207Pb and206Pb around 30 mK. The E2/M1 multipole mixing ratios of several γ-transitions in206Pb were determined. 相似文献
The relaxation rate of muonium in pure water has been found to be smaller than 0.05 × 106 s?1. With the aid of pulsed muong. μSR and MuSR measurements have been carried out over a longer time range than ever achieved. The results indicate a stability of thermal muonium in water from 3 to 29°C. 相似文献
