地基高频加热激励ELF/VLF波对辐射带高能电子的准线性散射

地球内、外辐射带电子通量的变化对于空间飞行器,尤其是中低轨卫星的防护有着非常重要的影响.基于回旋共振波粒相互作用的准线性理论,使用地基高频发射器发射电波调制低电离层背景电流可以人工激励ELF/VLF波,这些波能使辐射带相对论电子发生抛射角散射沉降进入大气层从而降低其生存期.为了定量地分析人工激励ELF/VLF波散射辐射带高能粒子的可行性,针对内、外辐射带,本文选取了两个典型区域：L=4.6和L=1.5.数值计算结果表明,在内、外辐射带由于ELF/VLF波的人工注入而造成的高能电子损失时间尺度很大程度上取决于冷等离子体参量α^*(∝B²/N₀,这里B是背景磁场,N₀是电子数密度)、电波频谱特性和功率,以及与波发生回旋共振的电子能量.一般来讲,在外辐射带人工ELF/VLF哨声波散射相对论电子使之沉降到大气层要容易得多;低能量的高能电子(200keV)要比高能量的相对论电子(500keV)更有效地通过抛射角散射进入大气层.考虑到高频电波加热电离层激励的ELF/VLF波可能会被捕获在磁层空腔中,来回反射从而得到增强,因此在适当的条件下,地基高频加热装置发射足够的电波功率进入电离层诱导大幅度ELF/VLF波注入到内磁层,能够在1至3天的时间尺度内快速散射外辐射带相对论电子使之沉降,也能够在10天量级的时间尺度里散射生存周期一般为100天甚至更长的内辐射带相对论电子. 关键词： 地基高频加热电离层 ELF/VLF波激励 高能电子散射和沉降 共振波粒相互作用     

THE CORRELATION EFFECT ON THE CHAIN MOTION CONTRIBUTION TO IONIC TRANSPORT IN POLYMER ELECTROLYTES

The ionic transport process in polymer electrolytes (such as polyethylene oxide) wassimulated numerically on a two dimensional square lattice where charge carriers areaccommodated by the lattice sites connected randomly with available bonds to represent theamorphous chain configuration. Following the dynamic bond percolation theory(DBPT),the chainmotion contribution to the ionic conduction was incorporated via periodical renewal of the randombond configuration. To check and extend the prediction made by DBPT employing global abruptbond renewal,spatial correlation of the bond reassignment was introduced to the system by: 1)regional bond renewal and 2) organized bond motion. It is found that the difference between thediffusivities simulated involving regional bond renewal and those of DBPT becomes negligiblewhen the bond renewal rate approaches the carrier hopping rate.     

Electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric characteristics and fragmentation mechanisms of distamycin analogues

The electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometric (ESI-MS/MS) characteristics and fragmentation mechanisms of eight distamycin analogues containing N-methylpyrrole and N-methylimidazole were investigated. The members of two isomeric groups of distamycin analogues with the same elemental composition can be distinguished by MS/MS spectra of protonated molecules and of significant fragment ions.     

Decay distribution of spontaneous emission from an assembly of atoms in photonic crystals with pseudogaps

Spontaneous decay behaviors from an assembly of atoms (or molecules) in 3D photonic crystals (PC's) with pseudogaps are investigated. Theoretically, a lifetime distribution function for these atoms or molecules is defined to reveal decay kinetics. Our calculations show that quite wide or narrow lifetime distributions can occur for different spread configurations of the atoms (or molecules). The pure PC effect may lead to coexistence of both accelerated and inhibited decay processes. These results provide theoretical clarification for substantial discrepancies in the recent reported experiments.     

Compact two-photon fluorescence microscope based on a single-mode fiber coupler

We present a two-photon fluorescence microscope based on a three-port single-mode optical fiber coupler. It is found that the coupler behaves as a low-pass filter that can deliver an ultrashort-pulsed laser beam of as much as 150 mW of power in the wavelength range from 770 to 870 nm as well as collect a two-photon fluorescence signal in the visible range. As a result of using the fiber coupler, the new two-photon imaging system exhibts a number of advantages, including a compact arrangement, freedom from vibration from lasers and electronic devices, self-alignment, reduction of multiple scattering, and an enhanced optical sectioning effect. The effectiveness of the new instrument is demonstrated with a set of three-dimensional images of biological samples. This instrument may make two-photon fluorescence endoscopy possible for in vivo medical applications.     

Cationic Phosphonolipids Containing Quaternary Phosphonium and Arsonium Groups for DNA Transfection with Good Efficiency and Low Cellular Toxicity**

Replacing the ammonium polar head in cationic lipids 1 (A=N) by a phosphonium or an arsonium group (A=P, As) improves their properties as synthetic vectors for DNA transfection. The increased volume of the cationic head is supposed to modify the interactions of the vector with the solvent and DNA.     

On the Semiclassical Propagator for Any One-Dimensional Admissible Potential

This paper shows that by choosing suitably the general fundamental invariantI=f(I₁) as a new canonical momentum, we can find the semiclassical propagator for any one-dimensional admissible potential, whereIis a certain function of the fundamental invariantI₁. We apply this method to the case of quartic potential and point out few applications of the propagator for this potential.     

Facile one-pot synthesis of bifunctional heterodimers of nanoparticles: a conjugate of quantum dot and magnetic nanoparticles

Sequential addition of sulfur and Cd(acac)2 into the colloid solution of FePt nanoparticles ( approximately 2.5 nm) under a reductive environment generates heterodimers of CdS and FePt with sizes of approximately 7 nm. The heterodimers exhibit both superparamagnetism and fluorescence, indicating that the discrete properties of the individual parts of the dimers are preserved. This simple methodology may lead to the production of large quantities of various heterostructures with tailored properties on the nanoscale.     

Effect of Pb2+ ions on the photoluminescence characteristics of Mn2+-doped Zn2SiO4

Zn₂SiO₄ single-doped and co-doped with Mn²⁺ ions and Pb²⁺ ions has been prepared by a sol–gel process. The luminescent properties of the samples have been investigated. From the excitation and emission spectral analysis, it was found that the emission peaks vary with the change of the excitation wavelength. An enhanced luminescent characteristic of Mn²⁺ ions (in blue and green spectral zones) has been observed, due to the energy transfer from the Pb²⁺ ion to the Mn²⁺ ion. The emission peaks originate from the d–d transitions of the Mn²⁺ ion. However, the relative intensities of the peaks show a dependence on the concentration of the Pb²⁺ ion.
