The chemical potential for dilute hard-sphere mixtures

Accurate Monte Carlo evaluation of the probability of inserting an additional particle of arbitrary size into a hard-sphere fluid at various densities allows a quantitative check on the scaled particle interpolation formula for this probability, which is rigorously known when the added particle is either very small or very large. The simple scaled particle formula is remarkably accurate due to a favorable choice of the functional dependence of the surface tension on curvature. The biggest deviation occurs at liquid-like densities where the insertion probability is about 20% larger for larger particles, indicating a larger probability of occurrence of larger density fluctuations, and resulting in a smaller (3%) excess chemical potential than the simple theory predicts. On the other hand, at lower densities the insertion probability for large particles is slightly smaller than the theory predicts.     

Hard loop effective theory of the (anisotropic) quark gluon plasma

The generalization of the hard thermal loop effective theory to anisotropic plasmas is described with a detailed discussion of anisotropic dispersion laws and plasma instabilities. The numerical results obtained in real-time lattice simulations of the hard loop effective theory are reviewed, both for the stationary anisotropic case and for a quark-gluon plasma undergoing boost-invariant expansion.

半花菁类近红外荧光探针在细胞内pH监测中的应用EI北大核心CSCD

pH异常变化与癌症和神经退行性等各种疾病相关,监测p H的变化对研究病理状况至关重要。本文设计合成了一种新型的p H荧光探针MC-p H。该探针最大发射波长在近红外区,可有效避免生物样品自身荧光。探针MC-p H中亚胺基团的质子化与非质子化是荧光开关的关键。在酸性溶液中,MC-p H以亚胺离子形式存在,最大吸收波长为617 nm,最大荧光发射波长为663 nm。随着p H逐渐升高,探针MC-p H主要以亚胺形式存在,617 nm处的特征吸收峰强度逐渐降低,并在467 nm处出现新的吸收峰,且663 nm处的荧光强度急剧降低直至消失。探针MC-p H可以监测溶液中p H的变化,线性范围为p H 3.0~8.0,不受其他常见干扰物的影响,且具有良好的细胞渗透性,可监测He La细胞内p H的变化。     

Perfect simulation and moment properties for the Matérn type III process

In a seminal work, Bertil Matérn introduced several types of processes for modeling repulsive point processes. In this paper an algorithm is presented for the perfect simulation of the Matérn III process within a bounded window in R^d${\mathbb{R}}^d$, fully accounting for edge effects. A simple upper bound on the mean time needed to generate each point is computed when interaction between points is characterized by balls of fixed radius R$R$. This method is then generalized to handle interactions resulting from use of random grains about each point. This includes the case of random radii as a special case. In each case, the perfect simulation method is shown to be provably fast, making it a useful tool for analysis of such processes.     

Investigations of hard elastic polypropylene with respect to the coil-strand-transition model

Hard elastic polypropylene was investigated by x-ray scattering using synchrotron radiation and by performing stress strain measurements in different liquids. It was found that the long period increases with elongation up to 1.3–1.4. Beyond this extension a change in the deformation behavior takes place. In the range from 1.1 to 1.3–1.4 the deformation measurements in the different liquids are in good agreement with the coil-strand-transition model. The proposed linear relationship between the deformation work and the elongation could be confirmed. The same holds for the surface energy. Moreover, the calculated ratio between the surface energy and the deformation work agrees with the measurements.

Two-dimensional crystallization of hard sphere particles at a liquid–liquid interface

A method for studying crystallization of hard sphere like particles in two dimensions is presented. The method involves trapping the particles at the interface between two immiscible liquids. Particles at the interface undergo 2D Brownian motion, and at sufficiently high densities crystallization is observed. The pseudo hard sphere nature of the particle interactions under these conditions is maintained, as demonstrated by the area density at which crystallization occurs. In contrast to established techniques for studying crystallization in pseudo 2D hard spheres, the particles trapped at the interface undergo no vertical motion, so the system is in principle closer to a true 2D system. The method is therefore amenable to the study of the effects of polydispersity on crystallization behaviour. The advantages and disadvantages of the method are discussed.     

Preparation of alumina/silica core-shell abrasives and their CMP behavior

Abrasive is one of key influencing factors on the surface quality during the chemical mechanic polishing (CMP). α-Alumina particles, as a kind of widely used abrasive in CMP slurries, often cause to surface defects because of its high hardness. In the present paper, a series of novel alumina/silica core-shell abrasives in slurries were described. The CMP performances of the alumina/silica core-shell abrasives on hard disk substrate were investigated by using a SPEEDFAM-16B-4M CMP equipment. Experimental results indicate that the CMP performances are strong dependent on the coated SiO₂ content of the alumina/silica composite abrasives. Slurries containing the alumina/silica composite abrasives exhibited lower surface roughness and waviness as well as lower topographical variations and less scratch than that containing pure alumina abrasive under the same testing conditions.     

Sorption of methane and carbon dioxide mixtures in Polish hard coals considered in terms of adsorption-absorption model

The measurements of gas mixture sorption of CO₂ + CH₄ (50%:50%) on hard coals were carried out using an original measurement method. The accuracy of the experimental data was controlled by using a gas chromatograph. Experimental sorption isotherms of individual gases were used for the simulation of sorption of their mixtures. A good agreement was obtained between the simulated and experimental data.
