Evidence For Coupling Of Velocity And Composition Fluctuations In A Binary Liquid Mixture, James V. Maher, Nalini Easwar, W. I. Goldburg, M. Joshua

Physics: Faculty Publications

A critical mixture of isobutyric acid and water was quenched from the one-phase region into the two-phase region and, after the spinodal ring was well developed, a reverse quench returned the system to the one-phase region. Light-scattering measurements for this process exhibit a clearly nondiffusive relaxation which, at least for early times after the quench reversal, is in good agreement with Ruiz's scheme for the coupling of velocity and composition fluctuations.

Xanes In (Tmtsef)2re04: Polarization Dependence Of The Se K-Edge, Juana Acrivos

Faculty Publications, Chemistry

We have measured XANES (X-ray Absorption Near Edge Spectra) near the Re Li(i=l,II,III) edges in (TMTTF)2Re04 and (TMTSeF)2Re04 and the Se K edge in the latter compound. An important dependence of the XANES at the Se K edge on the polarization of the incident beam with respect to the crystal axes was observed, whose interpretation can give information on the symmetry of the unoccupied conduction band states. The positions of the Re L edges were compared with those in several .inorganic compounds containing Re in various oxidation states, and were found to be, within experimental error, the same as those …

Zeta Matrices Of Elliptic Curves, Goro Kato, Saul Lubkin

Mathematics

Let O=lim_nZ/pⁿZ, , let A=O[g₂,g₃] Δ, where g₂ and g₃ are coefficients of the elliptic curve: Y² = 4X³ − g₂X − g₃ over a finite field and Δ = g₂³ − 27g₃² and let B=A[X,Y]/(Y²-4X³+g₂X+g₃). Then the p-adic cohomology theory will be applied to compute explicitly the zeta matrices of the elliptic curves, induced by the pth power map on the free AzQ -module H1(X, AzQ). Main results are; Theorem 1.1: X …

Energy Conservation In Corn Production, Wilbur W. Frye

Soil Science News and Views

On-farm production of food and fiber uses about 3% of the annual U.S. energy consumption. About one-third of this energy is directly from fossil fuels used in farm tractors and trucks and for crop drying, while about one-fourth is used in manufacturing and transporting fertilizers. Tillage and N fertilizers are the two largest uses of energy in non-irrigated product ion of crops which are not dried artificially. Thus, the greatest effects of energy conservation can be achieved in these two areas.

The Application Of Laser Intracavity Absorption Detector To Gas Chromatography Of Trace Organic Pollutants In Water, Robert B. Green

Technical Reports

A helium-neon (HeNe) laser operating simultaneously at 3.39 um (infrared) and 0.63 um (visible) has been used as a selective detector for hydrocarbons in the effluent of a gas chromatograph. The infrared and visible laser transitions originate at the same energy level and are competitive. When a hydrocarbon enters the laser's resonant cavity, the 3.39 um energy is absorbed due to the C-H stretching vibration and the visible emission is enhanced. The visible laser emission is monitored with a photodiode as a quantitative measure of the concentration of the absorbing molecule. The minimum detectable concentration for propane using the double-beam …

Effects Of Wastewater Discharges On Periphyton Growth In Lake Mead, Nevada-Arizona, Marsha Korb Morris

Publications (WR)

A study of the effects of secondary-treated wastewater on periphyton growth in Lake Mead, Nevada-Arizona was conducted from September 1979 to December 1980. Periphyton ash-free dry weight, chlorophyll-a, dominant species composition, and alkaline phosphatase activity were measured on fiberglass substrates. Substrates were incubated for two to four weeks in littoral and limnetic habitats. Physical and chemical variables and phytoplankton chlorophyll-a were measured concurrently.

Transparency increased with increasing distance from the discharge. Secchi depth ranged from 0.75 m at the discharge confluence (station 2) in August, to greater than 20 m at the most distant stations (stations 9 and 10) in …

Calculated Electrocapillary Curve For A Molten Salt, Jerry Goodisman, S Amokrane

Chemistry - All Scholarship

If bulk properties of simple molten salts may be reasonably well understood in terms of the primitive model, the situation with respect to surface properties is less satisfactory. It has been shown that a simple model for the distributions at the free surface of a molten salt can give surface tension and surface energy in reasonable accord with experiment, provided that a factor guaranteeing local electroneutrality is introduced. In this model, properties are given in terms of bulk-salt distribution functions, for which the primitive model is used. The present work extends this model to the electrocapillary curve, i.e., variation of …

Positive Identification Of The Cr(4+)-->Cr(3+) Thermal Transition In Gaas, David C. Look, S. Chaudhuri, L. Eaves

Physics Faculty Publications

Temperature-dependent Hall-effect measurements on two Cr-doped GaAs samples
show a dominant center at E₁ =0.324—1.4 x 10^-4T eV, with respect to the valence-band edge. By comparison with secondary-ion mass spectroscopy measurements of the Cr concentration, and recent EPR measurements of the Cr²⁺, Cr³⁺, and Cr⁴⁺ concentration in several samples, it is shown unambiguously that this energy describes the Cr⁴⁺→Cr³⁺ transition. This is the first conclusive evidence for a charge-state transition involving Cr⁴⁺ in GaAs.

Isotope Effect In Electron-Capture Differential Cross Sections At Intermediate Energies, Eduard P. Rille, Ronald E. Olson, Jerry Peacher, D. M. Blankenship, Thomas J. Kvale, E. Redd, John T. Park

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

The isotope dependence in the angular distribution of electron-capture cross sections for protons and deuterons with equal velocity (E=40 keV/u) colliding with atomic hydrogen or deuterium targets is predicted theoretically and observed experimentally. A projectile-dependent effect is observed at small scattering angles. No target dependence was detected in the differential cross sections. A scaling relationship is determined which permits the prediction of differential cross sections for hydrogen-isotope projectiles.

Measurement Of Spin-Exchange Effects In Electronhydrogen Collisions: Further Studies Of Impact Ionization, Timothy J. Gay, G. D. Fletcher, M. J. Alguard, V. W. Hughes, P. F. Wainwright, M. S. Lubell

Timothy J. Gay Publications

Using a Fano-effect polarized electron source and a state-selected thermally dissociated hydrogen beam, we measured the interference between the direct and exchange scattering amplitudes for electron-impact ionization of atomic hydrogen between 14.1 and 30.3 eV. We report the data from these measurements and the results of corrections applied to previously published data.

Kinetic And Spectral Studies Of Cobalt (Ii) -4, 4’, 4’’, 4’’’ –Tetrasulfophthalocyanine With Sodium Cyanide In Aqueous Solution, Pablo J. Diaz Cruz

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Kinetic studies of the cobalt (II)-4, 4’, 4’’, 4’’’-tetrasulfophtalocyanine and cyanide system were performed under argon and in air over temperature ranges of 294-314°K and 294-324°K, respectively. Two reactions were detected under argon. One was quite rapid and was followed on the stopped-flow apparatus. The results are consistent with the perturbation of a monomer-dimer equilibrium. The second reaction was slow enough to be followed spectrophotometrically on the Cary Model 14 spectrophotometer. The second order rate constant of 0.11 M^-1 sec^-1 at 294°K has been attributed to the rate of substitution of the second cyanide addition to a dye-cyanide …

Electron Capture And Ionisation In H⁺, He2++Li Collisions, Ronald E. Olson

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

Single electron capture and ionization cross sections have been calculated for H++Li and He2++Li collisions at energies ranging from 50 to 400 keV amu-1. Double electrons capture cross sections are presented for the He2++Li system. The classical-trajectory Monte Carlo method and the independent-electron model were used to calculate the cross sections. In the energy range investigated, the ionization process is dominated by electron removal of the valence Li(2s) electron, whereas the single and double electron capture processes are the result of capture from the K shell of the lithium atom.

On The Ising Model For Amorphous Ferromagnets, Harry A. Brown

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

A calculation is made of the effect on the critical temperature of a ferromagnet whose exchange integrals are taken to be random variables. The Bethe-Peierls-Weiss approximation is used to find the partition function, Z, for an Ising system and then a configuration average is taken to find (InZ), from which the resulting decrease in the critical temperature can be found. Other results are discussed, and comparisons made with the present result.

Nonlinear Anelasticity Of Magnesium, Alexander Aning, Tetsuro Suzuki, Manfred Wuttig

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

An approximate solution of the equation of motion of a nonlinear anelastic reed at or near resonance is presented. The steady state solution reproduces the well-known nonlinear resonances. The solution also predicts the existence of auto modulations, i.e., self-excited modulations of the amplitude and phase at constant power of excitation of the reed. Numerical examples of such auto modulations are presented for an antisymmetric deformation potential. Experimental studies of finite amplitude oscillations of a magnesium reed vibrating at 72 and 431 Hz at room temperature confirm the existence of auto modulations. The experimental results can be semi quantitatively described in …

Angular Scattering In Slow Multiple-Charged Ion, Atom Collisions, Ronald E. Olson, M. Kimura

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

The C6++H system is used to illustrate the importance of large-angle scattering in collisions between slow multiply charged ions and atoms. A quantum mechanical description based on a diabatic formalism of the collision system is used to obtain differential cross sections for electron capture in the relative velocity range nu =1*107 to 3*107 cm s-1 (Ecm approximately=48 to 430 eV). The threshold for angular scattering is at E theta approximately=0.2 keV deg which correlates with the curve crossing between initial and final molecular states located at Rx approximately=8a0. The centre-of-mass acceptance angles required to observe fixed fractions of the total …
