Theoretical Description Of The Binary Peak In Clothed Ion-Atom Collisions, C. O. Reinhold, Ronald E. Olson Oct 1990

Theoretical Description Of The Binary Peak In Clothed Ion-Atom Collisions, C. O. Reinhold, Ronald E. Olson

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

The impulse or binary encounter approximation for ion-atom collisions is extended to treat the non-Coulomb interaction between a clothed projectile ion and the target electrons. This model is shown to reproduce the unexplained enhancement of the zero-degree binary peak for partially stripped ions over that for Equi velocity fully stripped ions that has recently been observed experimentally in Fq++H2, He collisions. Very good agreement is obtained between theory and experiment and, furthermore, this model is used to illuminate the underlying dynamics which leads to the observed enhancement. © 1990 IOP Publishing Ltd.

This Letter reports the first measurements of the angular distribution of Auger electrons emitted from the decay of the (1s2s2p2)3D O4+** doubly excited state formed predominantly through resonant transfer and excitation (RTE) in collisions of 13-MeV O5+ projectiles with He. The (1s2s2p2)3D angular distribution is strongly peaked along the beam direction, in agreement with recent calculations of the RTE angle-dependent impulse approximation. Furthermore, interference effects between the RTE and the elastic target direct-ionization channels are observed.

Optimized Cross Correlation Waveforms For First Order Correlation Loops, Kurt Louis Kosbar Sep 1990

Optimized Cross Correlation Waveforms For First Order Correlation Loops, Kurt Louis Kosbar

Electrical and Computer Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

In this work, the steady state mean square tracking error of first order correlation loops is minimized by varying the locally generated cross correlation function produced by the voltage controlled oscillator. This analysis should assist in the design of modified first order delay locked loops used for pseudonoise code synchronization in direct sequence spread spectrum receivers. The optimum cross correlation waveform is generated by filtering a replica of the originally transmitted signal. The optimal filter imposes a 90 degree phase shift at all frequencies and has an amplitude response that is a function of the channel signal to noise ratio. …


Evidence For A Crossover From Multiple Trapping To Percolation In The High-Temperature Electrical Conductivity Of Mn-Doped Lacroo₃, Ryne P. Raffaelle, Harlan U. Anderson, Don M. Sparlin, Paul Ernest Parris Sep 1990

Evidence For A Crossover From Multiple Trapping To Percolation In The High-Temperature Electrical Conductivity Of Mn-Doped Lacroo₃, Ryne P. Raffaelle, Harlan U. Anderson, Don M. Sparlin, Paul Ernest Parris

Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

We explain the deep electrical conductivity minimum near x=0.05 in the perovskite-type ceramic LaCr1-xMnxO3 as a crossover between two different regimes of hopping conduction. At low Mn concentrations the diffusion of small polarons among Cr ions is limited by multiple trapping at energetically lower Mn sites. At higher concentrations a percolating path of Mn sites forms and direct transport between Mn ions dominates the conduction process.

Method For Fabricating Or Modifying An Article Comprising The Removal Of A Polymer Coating, Bonnie Bachman, Elizabeth A. Hofstatter, Joan M. Ritter, Jerry J. Rubin Aug 1990

Method For Fabricating Or Modifying An Article Comprising The Removal Of A Polymer Coating, Bonnie Bachman, Elizabeth A. Hofstatter, Joan M. Ritter, Jerry J. Rubin

Economics Faculty Research & Creative Works

Disclosed is a method for removing poly-para-xylylene, its derivatives, and copolymers (collectively called "parylene") from bodies, including relatively large bodies such as printed circuit (PC) boards, that is capable of yielding relatively high removal rates. A body such as a PC board coated with parylene is placed into a reaction chamber downstream from a microwave plasma such that plasma discharge products generated by the microwave plasma react with the parylene, etching the parylene without exposing the body to bombardment by energetic ions and/or electrons. The plasma is generated from a gas mixture containing oxygen, a second gas, and optional additives …

Load And Resistance Factor Design Of Cold-Formed Steel Reliability Based Criteria For Cold-Formed Steel Members, Ling-En Hsiao, Wei-Wen Yu, Theodore V. Galambos Aug 1990

Load And Resistance Factor Design Of Cold-Formed Steel Reliability Based Criteria For Cold-Formed Steel Members, Ling-En Hsiao, Wei-Wen Yu, Theodore V. Galambos

CCFSS Library (1939 - present)

In the design of steel buildings, the "Allowable Stress Design (ASD)" method has long been used for cold-formed steel structural members in the United States and other countries. In this approach, member forces, or moments, determined on the basis of working loads should not exceed the allowable values. The allowable value is used to prevent the possible structural failure by using an appropriate factor of safety selected primarily on the basis of engineering judgment and long-time experience. Recently, in the United States, the concepts of risk and reliability analysis have been successfully applied to the Load and Resistance Factor Design …

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

Autoionization of He atoms following double excitation by electrons, protons, CQ+ (Q=4-6), and FQ+ (Q=7-9) ions has been studied. The electron-emission yields from the doubly excited 2s2(1S), 2s2p(1P), and 2p2(1P) states were measured at the reduced projectile energy of 1.5 MeV/nucleon for observation angles between 10°and 60°. The results indicate excitation to the 2s2(1S) and 2p2(1D) states increases as approximately Q3, while excitation to the 2s2p(1P) state varies as approximately Q2, where Q is …

Mining Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works

The Mine Management Support System which is being developed as a knowledge-based expert system for better management of underground coal mines, is presented. Concentrating on capturing the complex body of knowledge needed to enhance efficient management of a mine, it will encompass information and preferred rules on work scheduling, work practices, regulations impinging on the accomplishment of work, responses to operating problems, and the labor-management work agreement. Different components of the mine system, modeled using an object-oriented layering technique, are displayed graphically to aid in coordinating work plans and to present locations of equipment, supplies, and proposed subsystem components.


Observation Of Velocity-Tuned Multiphoton Doppleron Resonances In Laser-Cooled Atoms, Jeffrey J. Tollett, Jian Chen, J. Greg Story, N. W M Ritchie, Curtis C. Bradley, Randall G. Hulet Jul 1990

Observation Of Velocity-Tuned Multiphoton Doppleron Resonances In Laser-Cooled Atoms, Jeffrey J. Tollett, Jian Chen, J. Greg Story, N. W M Ritchie, Curtis C. Bradley, Randall G. Hulet

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

An atomic beam of Li was transversely cooled using an intense standing-wave radiation field. A dramatic change in the transverse velocity distribution was observed. Structure in the resulting velocity distribution was found to be due to velocity-tuned multiphoton Doppleron resonances. The force due to seven-photon resonances is clearly resolved in the data. The data are in good agreement with theoretical predictions.

Chemistry Faculty Research & Creative Works

Neutron-diffraction, magnetic-susceptibility, specific-heat, and Mössbauer-effect studies of NaFeP2O7 reveal that it is a normal Heisenberg isotropic three-dimensional antiferromagnetic material with a Néel temperature of 29.0 K. NaFeP2O7 has the monoclinic P21/c magnetic space group, which is the same as the nuclear crystallographic space group. The easy axis of magnetization lies in the monoclinic ac plane at an angle of 21.0° from the c axis. The specific-heat measurements reveal a λ-type anomaly at 28.7(2) K. A molecular-field model analysis indicates that the intrasublattice magnetic exchange coupling Jaa=Jbb=-0.37 cm-1, whereas …


Oscillations In Lotka-Volterra Systems Of Chemical Reactions, Roger H. Hering Jun 1990

Oscillations In Lotka-Volterra Systems Of Chemical Reactions, Roger H. Hering

Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Research & Creative Works

For a chemical reaction system modeled by x =k1Ax -k2x2 -k3xy +k4y2, y =k3xy -k4y2 -k5y +k6B, it is shown that for each positive choice of parameters k1A, B there exists a unique stationary state which is globally asymptotically stable in the positive quadrant. A criterion for the non-existence of periodic solutions is given for the generalized Lotka-Volterra system:x = f(x)h(x, y), y. © 1990 J.C. Baltzer AG, Scientific Publishing Company.


Coupled-Channel Optical Calculation Of Electron-Hydrogen Scattering: The Distorted-Wave Optical Potential, Igor Bray, Don H. Madison, Ian E. Mccarthy Jun 1990

Coupled-Channel Optical Calculation Of Electron-Hydrogen Scattering: The Distorted-Wave Optical Potential, Igor Bray, Don H. Madison, Ian E. Mccarthy

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

The coupled-channel optical method solves a set of coupled momentum-space integral equations for a finite set of reaction channels. The remaining channels, including the target continuum, are described by the polarization potential operator, which formally depends on the full three-body state vectors for these channels. The distorted-wave optical potential makes the distorted-wave Born approximation for these state vectors, using exact target states. No other approximation is made. Calculations and comparison with experiment are reported for total ionization cross sections and asymmetries, total excitation cross sections, entrance-channel phenomena, and the coupled 1s,2s,2p channels, at a range of energies.

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

The effects of rotation-vibration interaction and of rotational coupling between the B 2p 1Σu+ and C 2p 1Πu electronic states on the B-X continuum of H2 were investigated spectroscopically using monochromatized synchrotron radiation for selective excitation of rovibronic states. The perturbed continuum intensities observed for the first time agree well with close-coupling calculations also performed. © 1990 IOP Publishing Ltd.
