激光等离子体的电子温度对Thomson散射离子声波双峰的影响

通过对不同激光条件产生的等离子体进行Thomson散射实验诊断，发现在距靶面为150 μm的临界密度面内，离子声波双峰强度出现明显的不对称性，而且强峰的位置发生了转移：当等离子体的电子温度较高时，强峰出现在短波方向；当等离子体电子温度较低时，强峰出现在长波方向.光的拉曼散射效应对应地解释了离子声波的双峰结构、双峰强度不对称性及强峰出现的位置.建立了光的拉曼散射与电子的Thomson散射的对应关系.

Padé–Legendre approximants for uncertainty analysis with discontinuous response surfaces

A novel uncertainty propagation method for problems characterized by highly non-linear or discontinuous system responses is presented. The approach is based on a Padé–Legendre (PL) formalism which does not require modifications to existing computational tools (non-intrusive approach) and it is a global method. The paper presents a novel PL method for problems in multiple dimensions, which is non-trivial in the Padé literature. In addition, a filtering procedure is developed in order to minimize the errors introduced in the approximation close to the discontinuities. The numerical examples include fluid dynamic problems characterized by shock waves: a simple dual throat nozzle problem with uncertain initial state, and the turbulent transonic flow over a transonic airfoil where the flight conditions are assumed to be uncertain. Results are presented in terms of statistics of both shock position and strength and are compared to Monte Carlo simulations.     

On Time Dynamics of Coagulation-Fragmentation Processes

We establish a characterization of coagulation-fragmentation processes, such that the induced birth and death processes depicting the total number of groups at time t≥0 are time homogeneous. Based on this, we provide a characterization of mean-field Gibbs coagulation-fragmentation models, which extends the one derived by Hendriks et al. As a by-product of our results, the class of solvable models is widened and a question posed by N. Berestycki and Pitman is answered, under restriction to mean-field models.     

Phase equilibria and excess properties for binary systems in reactive distillation processes Part I. Methyl acetate synthesis

Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) and excess enthalpy (H^E) data were measured for binary systems required for the design of reactive distillation processes for the methyl acetate production. The isothermal P–x data were measured with the help of a computer-operated static apparatus. A commercial isothermal flow calorimeter was used for the determination of the heats of mixing. Temperature-dependent interaction parameters for the UNIQUAC model were fitted simultaneously to the experimental data from this work and other authors.     

Multi-Fractal Formalism for Quasi-Self-Similar Functions

The study of multi-fractal functions has proved important in several domains of physics. Some physical phenomena such as fully developed turbulence or diffusion limited aggregates seem to exhibit some sort of self-similarity. The validity of the multi-fractal formalism has been proved to be valid for self-similar functions. But, multi-fractals encountered in physics or image processing are not exactly self-similar. For this reason, we extend the validity of the multi-fractal formalism for a class of some non-self-similar functions. Our functions are written as the superposition of similar structures at different scales, reminiscent of some possible modelization of turbulence or cascade models. Their expressions look also like wavelet decompositions. For the computation of their spectrum of singularities, it is unknown how to construct Gibbs measures. However, it suffices to use measures constructed according the Frostman's method. Besides, we compute the box dimension of the graphs.     

Hausdorff Dimension of Sets of Generic Points for Gibbs Measures

For a translation invariant Gibbs measure on the configuration space X of a lattice finite spin system, we consider the set X of generic points. Using a Breiman type convergence theorem on the set X of generic points of an arbitrary translation invariant probability measure on X, we evaluate the Hausdorff dimension of the set X with respect to any metric out of a wide class of scale metrics on X (including Billingsley metrics generated by Gibbs measures).     

Structural properties of silver iodide and copper iodide

The structural changes within the Silver iodide (AgI) and Copper iodide (CuI) induced by pressure have been investigated using an effective interaction potential. CuI and AgI in their parent zinc blende (ZnS) to rock salt (NaCl) through an intermediate structure have been reported. The calculated values for the phase transition pressures and associate volume collapses are generally in good agreement with measured data.      

Classical Limits of Euclidean Gibbs States for Quantum Lattice Models

Models of quantum and classical particles on a lattice ^d are considered. The classical model is obtained from the corresponding quantum model when the reduced mass of the particle m = / #x210F;² tends to infinity. For these models, the convergence of the Euclidean Gibbs states, when m + , is described in terms of the weak convergence of local Gibbs specifications, determined by conditional Gibbs measures. In fact, it is shown that all conditional Gibbs measures of the quantum model weakly converge to the conditional Gibbs measures of the classical model. A similar convergence of the periodic Gibbs measures and, as a result, of the order parameters, for such models with pair interactions possessing the translation invariance, has also been shown.
