Detection and analysis of radio pulses from extensive air showers

Radio pulses from extensive air showers (EAS) at 30, 44, and 60 MHz frequencies have been studied, using wide band broad-side arrays of half-wave dipole antenna systems. The experimental results support the theoretical prediction that the field strength of radio emission depends on the shower size. An asymmetry has been noticed in the pulse height distributions of radio pulses detected by North-South and East-West directed arrays. These observations are in agreement with the theory that the charge separation mechanism is predominant in generating radio pulses from EAS and radio emission is polarised in the East-West direction. Experimental data are compared with those of earlier workers.     

Optimum coupling of a Gaussian beam to a corner reflector with a four-wavelength antenna

The coupling of a Gaussian radiation beam to a corner reflector with a four-wavelength long wire antenna was studied theoretically and experimentally. The antenna configuration in conjunction with a Schottky barrier diode is recently used widely as a fast submillimeter wave detector. The optimum angle focusing the radiation to the antenna has been obtained and is 11° (half-width at the 8.7dB points).

微型超高压宝石喷嘴内部的空化与磨损

宝石喷嘴是影响超高压水射流切割系统工作效率的重要部件,而宝石内部的空化直接影响射流的形成,也是宝石磨损的重要原因之一。对400 MPa压力范围内宝石孔内部的空化两相流进行了数值模拟,阐述了射流在宝石内的形成过程,分析了长径比、压力和入口形状对宝石内空化的影响,并在相应压力下对宝石喷嘴的磨损进行了实验研究。结果表明:宝石内部的空化发展程度随着长径比的增大而减弱;在一定的长径比范围内,空化可以发展到喷嘴出口,并最终使射流的初始直径小于喷嘴直径,且在此条件下当压力升高时,射流的初始直径增大;良好的入口形线可以降低空化的发展程度;宝石入口的磨损较出口更显著,空蚀和高压水的冲蚀造成了宝石孔边缘形状的破坏,这种破坏随着压力的升高而加剧,选择合适的长径比是减少冲蚀磨损的有效途径。

Quasi in situ Ni K‐edge EXAFS investigation of the spent NiMo catalyst from ultra‐deep hydrodesulfurization of gas oil in a commercial plant

Ni species on the spent NiMo catalyst from ultra‐deep hydrodesulfurization of gas oil in a commercial plant were studied by Ni K‐edge EXAFS and TEM measurement without contact of the catalysts with air. The Ni–Mo coordination shell related to the Ni–Mo–S phase was observed in the spent catalyst by quasi in situ Ni K‐edge EXAFS measurement with a newly constructed high‐pressure chamber. The coordination number of this shell was almost identical to that obtained by in situ Ni K‐edge EXAFS measurement of the fresh catalyst sulfided at 1.1 MPa. On the other hand, large agglomerates of Ni₃S₂ were observed only in the spent catalyst by quasi in situ TEM/EDX measurement. MoS₂‐like slabs were sintered slightly on the spent catalyst, where they were destacked to form monolayer slabs. These results suggest that the Ni–Mo–S phase is preserved on the spent catalyst and Ni₃S₂ agglomerates are formed by sintering of Ni₃S₂ species originally present on the fresh catalyst.     

Investigation of patch antennas based on crossed idiosyncratic PBG structure

The method of finite difference time domain (FDTD) was used, and characteristics of the patch antenna based on drilling periodic air holes in the substrate were studied, the results indicate that the surface waves which propagate along the surface of the substrate can be suppressed by the crossed idiosyncratic PBG (photonic crystal band-gap) structure because of its effect of forbidden-band, that it can radiate most of electromagnetic waves’ energy in the substrate significantly, and that it has lower return loss (S11) compared to the conventional patch antennas, thus, a high gain is attained, its performance is improved. Due to these advantages, the use of photonic crystal patch antennas will be extended in areas such as mobile communication, satellite communication, aviation, etc.     

Analysis of athermalizing performance of thermal infrared optical system with Cassegrain antenna

The thermal infrared imaging system is of greatest importance in modern optics and the image quality closely relies on the accuracy of the optical system. Heat-induced mirror deformation influences the transmission performance of the optical antenna system significantly, which further degrades the accuracy of the whole system. In this work, the simulation on lens deformation circumstances under the thermal environment is carried out using the finite-element analysis software ANSYS. The focus shift property caused by the thermal effect is studied in the cases of reflective and refractive Cassegrain optical antennas, and the athermalizing performance of Cassegrain optical antenna system is also concluded. This work presents a direction to accurate designing of the thermal infrared optical system.
