Pressure dependence of the thermal stability in LiMn2O4

Structural stability in terms of the decomposition temperature in LiMn₂O₄ was systematically investigated by a series of high-temperature and high-pressure experiments.LiMn₂O₄ was found to have structural stability up to 5 GPa at room temperature.Under ambient pressure,the compound decomposed at 1300℃.The decomposition temperature decreased with increasing pressure,yielding more complex decomposed products.Below the decomposition temperature,the crystal structure of LiMn₂O₄ varied with pressure.The presented results in this study offer new insights into the thermal and pressure stability of LiMn₂O₄ materials as a cathode for lithium-ion batteries that can operate under extreme conditions.Therefore,these findings may serve as a useful guide for future work for improving lithium-ion batteries.     

50~250 keV质子入射SiC和Si靶时的电子发射特性研究

在中国科学院近代物理研究所兰州重离子加速器国家实验室测量了能量范围为50~250 keV 的质子入射碳化硅靶和硅靶表面的电子发射产额。实验结果发现,两种半导体靶材的电子发射产额随质子入射能量变化趋势均与作用过程中电子能损随质子入射能量的变化趋势相似。通过分析电子发射的能量来源,发现实验中电子发射产额主要由动能电子发射产额贡献,势能电子发射产额可以忽略不计。两种靶材的电子发射产额均近似地正比于质子入射靶材过程中的电子能损,比例系数B随入射能量略有变化。

Properties of train traffic flow in a moving block system

The development direction of railways is toward the improvement of capacity and service quality, where the service quality includes safety, schedule, high speed, and comfort. In light of the existing cellular automaton models, in this paper, we develop a model to analyze the mixed running processes of trains with maximal speeds of 500 km/h and 350 km/h respectively in the moving block system. In the proposed model, we establish some sound rules to control the running processes of a train, where the rules include the departure rules in the intermediate stations, the overtaking rules, and the conditions of speed limitation for a train stopping at a station or passing through a station. With the consideration of the mixed ratio and the distance between two adjacent stations, the properties of the train traffic flow (including capacity and average speed) are simulated. The numerical results show that the interactions among different trains will affect the capacity, and a proper increase of the spatial distance between two adjacent stations can enhance the capacity and the average speed under the moving block.

Efficient cardiac diffusion tensor MRI by three-dimensional reconstruction of solenoidal tensor fields

Tensor tomography is being investigated as a technique for reconstruction of in vivo diffusion tensor fields that can potentially be used to reduce the number of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) measurements. Specifically, assessments are being made of the reconstruction of cardiac diffusion tensor fields from 3D Radon planar projections using a filtered backprojection algorithm in order to specify the helical fiber structure of myocardial tissue. Helmholtz type decomposition is proposed for 3D second order tensor fields. Using this decomposition a Fourier projection theorem is formulated in terms of the solenoidal and irrotational components of the tensor field. From the Fourier projection theorem, two sets of Radon directional measurements, one that reconstructs the solenoidal component and one that reconstructs the irrotational component of the tensor field, are prescribed. Based on these observations filtered backprojection reconstruction formulae are given for the reconstruction of a 3D second order tensor field and its solenoidal and irrotational components from Radon projection measurements. Computer simulations demonstrate the validity of the mathematical formulations and demonstrate that a realistic model of the helical fiber structure of the myocardial tissue specifies a diffusion tensor field for which the first principal vector (the vector associated with the maximum eigenvalue) of the solenoidal component accurately approximates the first principal vector of the diffusion tensor. A priori knowledge of this allows the orientation of the myocardial fiber structure to be specified utilizing one half of the number of MRI measurements of a normal diffusion tensor field study.

Effect of atmospheric parameters on fine particulate concentration in suburban Shanghai

A study was conducted on the effect of atmospheric parameters,including temperature,wind speed,and relative humidity,on fine particulate mass concentrations measured in Jiading District of Shanghai,China, during the period from January 2009 to January 2010.A sensitivity analysis was applied to investigate the interaction between atmospheric parameters and particulate mass concentration.The experiment revealed that the concentration of particulates increased with particle size from 0.1 to 1.0μm,and decreased with the increase of particle size from 1.0 to 2.5μm.The effects of atmospheric parameters on fine mass concentrations were significantly particle size-dependent.The PM_1.0-2.5 may come from the size increase of smaller particulates after moisture absorption.And the variation of concentrations of PM_0.1-1.0 was mainly attributed to the accumulation of PM_0.1.The ventilation index and dilution index were calculated on the basis of data collected in December 2009.A correlation analysis indicated that there was a significant relation between these two indexes and the particulate concentration by examining the three particle size ranges,0.0-0.1,0.1-1.0,and 1.0-2.5μm.The Spearman correlation coefficients that related the ventilation index to the concentration for the three particle size ranges were -0.45,-0.56 and -0.47, respectively,while the coefficients that related the dilution index to the concentration were -0.36,-0.42 and -0.45,respectively.
