Spontaneous magnetization of the Ising model on a 4–8 lattice

The spontaneous magnetization of the Ising model on a 4–8 lattice with six different coupling constants and two different magnetic moments is studied. A formula for the spontaneous magnetization is proposed. The result agrees with the exact low-temperature series expansions up to the 12th order.     

The destabilizing effect of boundary slip on Bénard convection

We investigate the influence of slip boundary conditions on the onset of Bénard convection in an infinite fluid layer. It is shown that the critical Rayleigh number is a decreasing function of the slip length, and therefore boundary slip is seen to have a destabilizing effect. Chebyshev‐tau and compound matrix formulations for solving the eigenvalue problem are presented. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

General strategy for a short and efficient synthesis of 3-hydroxy-4-methylprolines (HMP)

The non-proteinogenic amino acid 3-hydroxy-4-methylproline (HMP) is an active constituent of some potent antimicrobials including echinocandins, nostopeptins, pneumocandins, sporiofungin and mulundocandins. A synthesis has been achieved in 10 steps with 29% overall yield; the Evans’ aldol reaction using Crimmins’ modified method was pivotal to the success of the strategy.     

(Ni0.8Zn0.2Fe2O4)epoxy-PZT双层膜中的磁电效应

讨论了Ni_0.8Zn_0.2Fe₂O₄ (NZFO)与锆钛酸铅(PZT)的双层膜结构样品的磁电(ME)效应.NZFO粉料由溶胶-凝胶法制成，再经900℃热压，并高温烧结.在该双层膜中测量到了很强的磁电相互作用.发现横向的磁电效应比纵向效应大一个数量级，并且随NZFO烧结温度的提高而增加.当烧结温度从950℃上升到1380℃时，横向ME电压系数(α_E)的最大值变化范围为25.6 mV Am^-2≤α_E≤199.6 mV Am^-2.理论分析显示NZFO-PZT双层膜样品中ME效应源于NZFO与PZT之间相对良好的磁电耦合. 关键词： 镍铁氧体 PZT 热压法 ME效应     

Luminescent properties of Ce in MSO4 (M: Ca, Sr and Ba) and the effect of Na co-doping

The optical properties of Ce³⁺ in CaSO₄, SrSO₄ and BaSO₄ are reported. The Ce³⁺ ion shows 4f⁰5d¹→²F_5/2,²F_7/2 luminescence in all three sulphates. Co-doping with Na⁺ does not change the local surrounding of the Ce³⁺ ion, but enhances the amount of Ce³⁺ ions built in. Under optical excitation, besides the typical Ce³⁺ doublet emission in the ultraviolet spectral region, band emission around 445 nm was observed. This band emission was not assigned to emission from a Ce³⁺ centre, but to emission from an impurity-trapped exciton. Under X-ray excitation, both Ce³⁺ emission and an emission band around 380 nm was observed. This band was assigned to emission from a self-trapped exciton.     

Fundamental processes in long air gap discharges

The development of atmospheric lightning is initiated and sustained by the formation in virgin air of ‘streamer corona’ and ‘leader’ discharges, very similar to those observed in laboratory long sparks. Therefore, the experimental and theoretical investigations of these laboratory discharges have become of large interest to improve the physical knowledge of the lightning process and to develop self-consistent models that could be applied to new protection concepts.In the present paper the fundamental processes of the subsequent phases of long air gap discharges are analyzed, from the first corona inception and development to the leader channel formation and propagation. For all these processes simulations models are discussed that have been essentially derived and simplified by the authors, in order to develop sequential time-dependent simulation of the laboratory breakdown, with both positive and negative voltages. The possibility of extending these models to the case of natural lightning is discussed in the companion paper, presented in this same volume. To cite this article: I. Gallimberti et al., C. R.

BaWO_4晶体的拉曼光谱分析

BaWO4晶体是一种很有应用前景的喇曼激光晶体。本文根据对称性分类,用商群理论分析了Ba-WO4晶体的喇曼光谱。一个原胞中含有两个BaWO4分子,理论上有36个振动膜,和我们用群论计算得数目一致。其中有18支拉曼活性光学膜。我们测得了10支拉曼峰,并对测得的各个配置的拉曼峰进行了指认,其中X(ZZ)X配置921cm-1处的喇曼峰强度最强,线宽较窄,对于作为喇曼激光晶体来讲是很有益的。
