Containerless rapid solidification of undercooled Cu-Co peritectic alloys

Droplets of Co-16%Cu and Co-71.6%Cu peritectic alloys were solidified during containerless processing in a 3_m drop tube. The microstructures of Co-16%Cu alloy droplets were characterized by dendritic or equiaxed α-Co phase with a small amount of Cu-rich solid solution distributed on α-Co phase boundaries. Two thresholds of droplet diameter were observed for Co-16%Cu alloy at which "equiaxed-dendritic-equiaxed" morphological transitions occur to primary α-Co phase. This conspicuous refinement of primary α-Co grains results from the fragmentation of α-Co dendrites caused by recalescence effect. For Co-71.6%Cu alloy, the primary α-Co phase forms as coarse columnar dendrites in large droplets and equiaxed dendrites in small droplets. Theoretical calculations indicate that Marangoni migration contributes more to the growth of disperse Co-rich spheres by stimulating collision and coalescence than Stokes motion caused by the residual gravity in the falling Co-71.6%Cu alloy droplets.     

基于时延和相位估计的合成孔径声呐运动补偿研究

合成孔径声呐成象的难点之一在于孔径上载体的运动不稳定性影响了合成孔径上水听器接收的信号的相干性,其结果将导致图像的畸变和分辨率的降低。首先讨论了运动误差对合成孔径声呐(SAS)成像的影响及运动补偿的必要性。在分析位移相位中心运动补偿法的基础上,提出了一种改进算法。该方法首先估计时延,然后再对剩余误差进行相位估计,从而扩大了算法适用的运动误差范围。文中给出了利用该方法的计算机仿真结果和部分水池实验结果,从结果可以看出,该方法有效地修正了在合成孔径上由于介质和载体不稳定带来的不相干性,提高了成像的质量。     

Large-scale synthesis and growth habit of 3-D flower-like crystal of PbTe

In this paper, 3-D flower-like crystal of PbTe was successfully synthesized using Pb(CH₃COO)₂·3H₂O and Na₂TeO₃ as precursors under hydrothermal conditions, and characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray diffraction pattern (XRD). The reaction parameters that influenced the evolution of PbTe synthesis and morphology were investigated. It was shown that the flower-like crystal of PbTe was composed of a nucleus with eight pods. A possible growth mechanism was proposed based on the calculation of the surface energies of PbTe and the SEM observation. Furthermore, the temperature-dependent transport properties of 3-D flower-like crystal of PbTe specimen have been evaluated with an average thermoelectric power of 120 S cm^?1 and electrical conductivity of 220 μV K^?1 at 740 K.     

On the oxidation of CaF2 in transmission electron microscope

Electron stimulated oxidation of CaF₂ in transmission electron microscope has been thoroughly studied using various electron microscopy techniques, including imaging, electron diffraction and electron energy-loss spectroscopy. It found that the electron irradiation induced CaO locate on the edge of specimen. The oxidation process is associated with desorption of F by electron irradiation, and originates from O impurities in the specimen. Driven by electric field produced by electron irradiation, the O ions inside bulk diffuse to the edge region, occupying the interstitials of metallized Ca lattice. Therefore, the accumulation of O along the edge of specimen results in forming CaO.     

Elliptic flow of transported and produced protons in Au+Au collisions with the UrQMD model

Within the framework of the UrQMD model, by tracing the number of initial quarks in protons, we study the elliptic flow of protons with 3, 2, 1, 0 initial quarks and anti-protons in Au+Au collisions at SNN~(1/2)= 7.7, 11.5, 39,200 GeV. The difference of elliptic flow between protons with 2, 1, 0 initial quarks and anti-protons is smaller than 0,or consistent with 0, respectively. The difference of elliptic flow between transported protons(with 3 initial quarks)and anti-protons is larger than 0 at 7.7, 11.5 and 39 GeV. This is in good agreement with the STAR results at 7.7 and 11.5 GeV, but overestimates the STAR results at 39 GeV. The yield of transported protons with 3 initial quarks is smaller than of protons with 2 and 1 initial quarks, and v_2 of all protons is much smaller than the STAR results. The observation of the v_2 difference of elliptic flow between transported protons and anti-protons in the UrQMD model partly explains the difference between protons and anti-protons observed in the Beam Energy Scan program at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider(RHIC).     

On proximality with Banach density one

Let (X,T)$(X,T)$ be a topological dynamical system. A pair of points (x,y)∈X²$(x,y)\in X^2$ is called Banach proximal if for any ε>0$\epsilon >0$, the set {n∈_Z+:d(Tⁿx,Tⁿy)<ε}$\{n\in {\mathbb{Z}}_{+}:d(T^{n}x,T^{n}y)<\epsilon \}$ has Banach density one. We study the structure of the Banach proximal relation. A useful tool is the notion of the support of a topological dynamical system. We show that a dynamical system is strongly proximal if and only if every pair in X²$X^2$ is Banach proximal. A subset S of X is Banach scrambled if every two distinct points in S form a Banach proximal pair but not asymptotic. We construct a dynamical system with the whole space being a Banach scrambled set. Even though the Banach proximal relation of the full shift is of first category, it has a dense Mycielski invariant Banach scrambled set. We also show that for an interval map it is Li–Yorke chaotic if and only if it has a Cantor Banach scrambled set.     

Investigation of nanostructured Fe3O4 polypyrrole core-shell composites by X-ray absorbtion spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction using synchrotron radiation

In this article, we focus on the structural peculiarities of nanosized Fe₃O₄ in the core-shell nanocomposites obtained by polymerization of conducting polypyrrole shell around Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles. The local structure of Fe atoms was determined from the Extended X-ray Absorption Fine Structure analysis using our own package computer programs. An X-ray diffraction method that is capable to determine average particle size, microstrains, as the particle size distribution of Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles is presented. The method is based on the Fourier analysis of a single X-ray diffraction profile using a new fitting method based on the generalized Fermi function facilities. The crystallites size obtained by X-ray diffraction spectra analysis was estimated between 3.2 and 10.3 nm. Significant changes in the first and the second Fe coordination shell in comparison with standard bulk were observed. The global and local structure of the nanosized Fe₃O₄ are correlated with the synthesis conditions of the core-shell polypyrrole nanocomposites.     

Rapid quantitative analysis of etoricoxib in human plasma by UPLC‐MS/MS and application to a pharmacokinetic study in Chinese healthy volunteers

A selective and sensitive liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry method was developed for simultaneous determination of etoricoxib in human plasma. Chromatography was performed on an Acquity UPLC HSS T3 column (1.8 μm, 50 × 2.1 mm), with a flow rate of 0.600 mL/min, using a gradient elution with acetonitrile and water which contained 2 mm ammonium acetate as the mobile phase. Detection was carried out on Triple QuadTM 5500 mass spectrometer under positive‐ion multiple reaction monitoring mode. The respective mass transitions used for quantification of etoricoxib and etoricoxib‐d3 were m/z 359.0 → 280.1 and m/z 362.0 → 280.2. Calibration curves were linear over the concentration range of 5–5000 ng/mL. The validated method was applied in the pharmacokinetic study of etoricoxib in Chinese healthy volunteers under fed and fasted conditions. After a single oral dose of 120 mg, the main pharmacokinetic parameters of etoricoxib in fasted and fed groups were respectively as follows: peak concentration, 2364.78 ± 538.01 and 1874.55 ± 367.90 ng/mL; area under the concentration–time curve from 0 to 120 h, 44,605.53 ± 15,266.66 and 43,516.33 ± 12,425.91 ng h/mL; time to peak concentration, 2.00 and 2.50 h; and half‐life, 24.08 ± 10.06 and 23.64± 6.72 h. High‐fat food significantly reduced the peak concentration of etoricoxib (p = 0.001) but had no effect on the area under the concentration–time curve.
