Investigation of radiation defects in Fe-Cr alloy

Abstract

The kinetics of radiation defect accumulation and subsequent recovery during/after electron irradiation below 273 K, at 323 K and 373 K were investigated for the Fe-15.7 at.% Cr using positron annihilation measurements at room temperature. Formation of vacancy clusters was observed at all of the irradiation temperatures. The formation of clusters and kinetics of their accumulation point to mobility of vacancies at least at room temperature. The cluster rearrangement and variations in the cluster configuration take place during annealing.     

Simple Zeros of the Riemann Zeta-Function

Assuming the Riemann Hypothesis, Montgomery showed by meansof his pair correlation method that at least two-thirds of thezeros of Riemann's zeta-function are simple. Later he and Taylorimproved this to 67.25 percent and, more recently, Cheer andGoldston increased the percentage to 67.2753. Here we proveby a new method that if the Riemann and Generalized LindelöofHypotheses hold, then at least 70.3704 percent of the zerosare simple and at least 84.5679 percent are distinct. Our methoduses mean value estimates for various functions defined by Dirichletseries sampled at the zeros of the Riemann zeta-function. 1991Mathematics Subject Classification: 11M26.     

Segregation of 57Co Atomic Probes in the Cores of Grain Boundaries in d-Transition Metals

A new method, which has been developed to examine the structure and physical properties of cores of grain boundaries (GB's) (S.M. Klotsman, Sov. Phys. Uspech. 33, 55 (1990); V.N. Kaigorodov and S.M. Klotsman, Phys. Rev. B 49 (1994)), was used to study segregats localized in two discrete regions of polycrystals: cores of GB's and two-dimensional regions of the lattice adjacent to the GB's. This paper reports and discusses results of investigations of segregation of ⁵⁷Co atomic probes in cores of GB's in the d-transition metals Cr, Ta and W. The interaction of ⁵⁷Co AP's with GB's cores in metals is similar to their interaction with vacancies, because GB's cores are characterized, as vacancies in metals, by an excess volume and a negative charge. GB's are enriched with ⁵⁷Co in chromium and tungsten. The activation enthalpy of the ⁵⁷Co atomic probes segregation at GB's in Cr and W is proportional tothe local magnetic moment of ⁵⁷Co atomic probes. GB's cores are found to be depleted of ⁵⁷Co atomic probes in Ta.     

Quantum Zeno and anti-Zeno paradoxes

Continuous observation of a time independent projection operator is known to prevent change of state (the quantum Zeno paradox). We discuss the recent result that generic continuous measurement of time dependent projection operators will in fact ensure change of state: an anti-Zeno paradox.
