Preliminary analyses of natural radionuclides in selected Turkish power plant lignites

This preliminary study presents the experimental results concerning the concentrations of selected radionuclides (²³⁸U, ²³²K, ²²⁶Ra, ²³²Th) in Af?in-Elbistan, Çan, Çay?rhan, Erzurum, Göynük, Kangal, Orhaneli, Saray, Seyitömer, Soma, Tunçbilek, Yata?an and Yeniköy lignites, which are primarily utilized as fuel for thermal power plants in Turkey. Gamma-spectrometry of 39 representative lignite samples gave results with the following concentration ranges: 8 to 296 Bq/kg for ²³⁸U, 3 to 79 Bq/kg for ²³²Th, 17 to 360 Bq/kg for 40K, and 5 to 130 Bq/kg for ²²⁶Ra. The ²³⁸U results reported here are higher than other literature values for various world coals, earth's crust and world average.     

Many-cluster-systems: models of inhomogeneous matter

First, some general remarks concerning macroscopic “cluster matter” are given. In the second part, three recent, mainly optically and electron-microscopically performed investigations are discussed which deal with special properties of noble metal cluster systems forming the building units of this kind of matter:(1) dressed Au-55 clusters,(2) electromagnetic coupling effects among coagulated clusters,(3) the transition towards compact inhomogeneous matter caused by coalescence of clusters.

Das Solvosystem Phosphoroxychlorid, 23. Mitt.: Photometrische Titrationen von Chloriden mit Eisen(III)-chlorid

Zusammenfassung Zahlreiche kovalente Chloride bilden mit FeCl₃ in POCl₃ Chloroniumtetrachloroferrate. HgCl₂, BCl₃, TiCl₄, SnCl₄ und PCl₅ geben ein Chloridion, ZnCl₂ und AlCl₃ zwei Chloridionen, letzteres zum Teil auch das dritte Chloridion an FeCl₃ ab. Die Donorstärke nimmt in der Reihe Et₄NClKCl1/2 ZnCl₂ 1/2 AlCl₃>TiCl₄>PCl₅1/3 AlCl₃[SbCl₆]^–HgCl₂ >BCl₃SnCl₄ ab. SbCl₅ ist in POCl₃ ein stärkerer Akzeptor als FeCl₃. Die Unterschiede gegenüber dem Lösungsmittel Phenylphosphoroxychlorid werden diskutiert.Mit 1 Abbildung22. Mitt.:M. Baaz, V. Gutmann undL. Hübner, Mh. Chem.91, 694 (1960).     

Ionization in antiproton-hydrogen collisions

Employing the semiclassical approximation we calculate within the coupled-state formalism the ionization probability in antiproton-hydrogen (p+H) collisions. In particular we investigate the adiabatic ionization at the distance of closest approach in almost central collisions. Striking differences in the electron excitation probability compared with proton-hydrogen (p+H) collisions are predicted.

Gas-chromatographische Trennung isomerer aromatischer C6-C10-Kohlenwasserstoffe

Separation of isomeric aromatic hydrocarbons from each other has been obtained using packed columns and Bentone 34 modified with silicone oil and lanolin. For maximum resolution the proportions of the modifying agents are very important. Retention data and chromatograms of two different column types are given (column 1∶6% Bentone 34; 2,5% lanolin; 1,5% silicone oil. Column 2∶10% silicone oil; 5% bentone 34; 4% lanolin)
