The Weakness Of Diffuse Bands In Nebular Environments. Possible Impact On Thepah+ Hypothesis, T P. Snow, E L. Bakes, R H. Buss Jr., C G. Seab
The Weakness Of Diffuse Bands In Nebular Environments. Possible Impact On Thepah+ Hypothesis, T P. Snow, E L. Bakes, R H. Buss Jr., C G. Seab
Physics Faculty Publications
It has been widely suggested that PAH cations (PAH+) may be the carriers of the diffuse interstellar bands, so it is of interest to probe diffuse behavior in regions suspected of having high abundances of PAHs. Here we examine the strengths of several of the visible-wavelength diffuse interstellar bands in two nebular environments where infrared emission and ultraviolet indicators show that PAHs are abundant. One might expect the PAHs to be predominantly positively ionized in these regions, yet the diffuse bands are systematically weak. This led us to examine the ionization balance for see whether the weakness of the diffuse …
Building A Continuous Wave Titanium Sapphire Laser, Sean Mcclain
Building A Continuous Wave Titanium Sapphire Laser, Sean Mcclain
Honors Theses, 1963-2015
In fulfilling the requirement of a senior thesis, I have constructed and optimized a continuous wave (cw) titanium sapphire laser, loosely based on the designs of other experimenters. A maximum output power of 500 mw at 23. nm was obtained after trying several cavity configurations. The beam characteristics, including wavelength, beam width, power and position stability were found to be sensitively dependent on the pump power, supplied by an argon ion laser.
Effects Of Track Structure And Cell Inactivation On The Calculation Of Heavy Ion Mutation Rates In Mammalian Cells, Francis Cucinotta, J. W. Wilson, M.R. Shavers, Robert Katz
Effects Of Track Structure And Cell Inactivation On The Calculation Of Heavy Ion Mutation Rates In Mammalian Cells, Francis Cucinotta, J. W. Wilson, M.R. Shavers, Robert Katz
Robert Katz Publications
It has long been suggested that inactivation severely effects the probability of mutation by heavy ions in mammalian cells. Heavy ions have observed cross sections of inactivation that approach and sometimes exceed the geometric size of the cell nucleus in mammalian cells. In the track structure model of Katz the inactivation cross section is found by summing an inactivation probability over all impact parameters from the ion to the sensitive sites within the cell nucleus. The inactivation probability is evaluated using the dose-response of the system to γ-rays and the radial dose of the ions and may be equal to …
Asymptotic Form Of The Penetration Probability Of The Quantum Harmonic Oscillator Into The Classically Forbidden Region, D. E. Atems
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Research Publications
The penetration probability of the quantum harmonic oscillator into the classically forbidden region is examined in the limit of large quantum numbers using analytical methods. An expression is derived for the asymptotic form of the penetration probability, and is shown to be in good agreement with an earlier result obtained by numerical methods. The asymptotic form of the probability density in the region between the classical turning points is also presented and found to have a simple physical interpretation.

Commensurate And Incommensurate Ordering Tendencies In The Ternary Fcc Cu-Ni-Zn System, J. D. Althoff, Duane D. Johnson, F. J. Pinski
Commensurate And Incommensurate Ordering Tendencies In The Ternary Fcc Cu-Ni-Zn System, J. D. Althoff, Duane D. Johnson, F. J. Pinski
Duane D. Johnson
We show that Fermi-surface (FS) nesting drives both the incommensurate and commensurate ordering tendencies of the fcc ternary Cu-Ni-Zn system. Surprisingly, commensurate order persists over a wide range of composition, despite its origins. For Cu2NiZn, we discuss how FS nesting and the other effects of alloying lead to ordering tendencies consistent with the experimentally observed order-disorder transformations. All calculations are based on a first-principles theory of the atomic short-range order in alloys with an arbitrary number of components.
Global Equatorial Ionosphericvertical Plasma Drifts Measured By The Ae-E Satellite, Bela G. Fejer, E. R. De Paula, R. A. Heelis, W. B. Hanson
Global Equatorial Ionosphericvertical Plasma Drifts Measured By The Ae-E Satellite, Bela G. Fejer, E. R. De Paula, R. A. Heelis, W. B. Hanson
Bela G. Fejer
Ion drift meter observations from the Atmosphere Explorer E satellite during the period of January 1977 to December 1979 are used to study the dependence of equatorial (dip latitudes ≤ 7.5°) F region vertical plasma drifts (east-west electric fields) on solar activity, season, and longitude. The satellite-observed ion drifts show large day-to-day and seasonal variations. Solar cycle effects are most pronounced near the dusk sector with a large increase of the prereversal velocity enhancement from solar minimum to maximum. The diurnal, seasonal, and solar cycle dependence of the longitudinally averaged drifts are consistent with results from the Jicamarca radar except …
Absolute Integrated Cross Sections For Some O2 Herzberg I Transitions Near 248–249 Nm, Zhen-Chuan Bao, Edward Yu, John R. Baker
Absolute Integrated Cross Sections For Some O2 Herzberg I Transitions Near 248–249 Nm, Zhen-Chuan Bao, Edward Yu, John R. Baker
Edward Yu
A frequency doubled tunable dye laser system with ∼0.4 cm−1 resolution was used to measure the integrated absorption cross sections of more than 20 rotational transitions in the O2 Herzberg I (A 3Σ+ u ←X 3Σ− g ) 8‐0 and 9‐0 vibrational bands near 248 nm and 249 nm. Oxygen pressures from 200 to 800 Torr and path lengths from 5 to 25 m were employed. The measured absorbances were fitted using a nonlinear least squares analysis and Beer’s Law to obtain absolute values for the individual transition integrated cross sections in good agreement with a recent spectral simulation and …
A Thermodynamic Model For Pressurized Solids, Miron Kaufman, Herbert Schlosser
A Thermodynamic Model For Pressurized Solids, Miron Kaufman, Herbert Schlosser
Miron Kaufman
A thermodynamic model for solids under pressure is developed by assuming the universal equation of state and that under zero pressure the free energy is equal to the harmonic crystal (Debye) free energy. The model is applied to gold. In the case of nanocrystals this model reproduces the observed enhancement of the isobaric heat capacity and of the thermal expansion. Our model calculations are free of the ambiguities and inconsistencies connected with the Gruneisen equation, which was used in previous theoretical work.

Collection Of Athermal Phonons Into Doped Germanium Thermistors Using Quasiparticle Trapping, S. M. Grannan, Betty A. Young, Andrew E. Lange, S. Labov, Bernard Sadoulet, J. Emes, Eugene E. Haller
Physics
We have developed a low‐temperature particle detector that uses a novel quasiparticle trapping mechanism to funnel athermal phonon energy from an 80 mg Ge absorber into a 1.6 mg doped Ge thermistor via a superconducting Al film. We report on pulse height spectra obtained at 320 mK by scanning a 241Am alpha source along the device, and show that up to 20% of the energy deposited in the Ge absorber by a 5.5 MeV alpha particle interaction can be collected into a thermistor via quasiparticle trapping. We show that this device is sensitive to the position of an alpha …
Characterization Of Piezoceramic Crosses With Large Range Scanning Capability And Applications For Low Temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscopy, J. A. Helfrich, Shireen Adenwalla, J. B. Ketterson, G. A. Zhitomirsky
Characterization Of Piezoceramic Crosses With Large Range Scanning Capability And Applications For Low Temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscopy, J. A. Helfrich, Shireen Adenwalla, J. B. Ketterson, G. A. Zhitomirsky
Shireen Adenwalla Papers
We have developed a large amplitude piezoceramic scanner which should have numerous applications. Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) and other scanning probe microscopies predominantly use piezoceramics for the scanning elements. Similarly adaptive optics, high resolution lithography, and micromanipulators are other examples of research which regularly utilize piezoceramic scanners. We present a new geometry for a piezoceramic scanner which allows for both high resolution (~nanometers) and large amplitude (~400 µm) displacements. The cross-shaped geometry makes it possible to produce extremely long pieces with very high tolerances. We have shown its effectiveness by using it as the major component of a low temperature …

The A-dependence of the quasielastic A(e, ef'p) reaction has been studied at SLAC with 2H, C, Fe, and Au nuclei at momentum transfers Q2 = 1, 3, 5, and 6.8 (GeV/c)2. We extract the nuclear transparency T(A, Q2), a measure of the average probability that the struck proton escapes from the nucleus A without interaction. Several calculations predict a significant increase in T with momentum transfer, a phenomenon known as Color Transparency. Within the measurement uncertainty, no increase is seen for any of the nuclei studied.

Cross sections are presented for the reaction 2H(e,e′p)n for momentum transfers in the range 1.2 ≤Q2≤ 6.8 (GeV/c)2 and for missing momenta from 0 to 250 MeV/c. The longitudinal-transverse interference structure function has been separated at Q2=1.2(GeV/c)2. The observables are compared to calculations performed in nonrelativistic and relativistic frameworks. The data are best described by a fully relativistic calculation.

A Consistent Boltzmann Algorithm, Alejandro Garcia, F. Alexander, B. Alder
A Consistent Boltzmann Algorithm, Alejandro Garcia, F. Alexander, B. Alder
Alejandro Garcia
The direct simulation Monte Carlo method for the Boltzmann equation is modified by an additional displacement in the advection process and an enhanced collision rate in order to obtain the exact hard sphere equation of state at all densities. This leads to consistent thermodynamic and transport properties in the low density (Boltzmann) regime. At higher densities transport properties are comparable to the predictions of the Enskog model. The algorithm is faster than molecular dynamics at low and moderate densities and readily run on a parallel architecture

This Letter reports the first measurements of the fast confined α-particle energy distribution in a fusion plasma. The pellet charge exchange technique shows the fusion generated α's in the core of the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor plasma slow down classically, and appear to be well confined. Preliminary indications are that stochastic ripple effects are responsible for steepening the energy distribution outside the plasma core (r/a0.35). Sawteeth mixing of fast α's is suggested in data during the post-beam-heating plasma decay. © 1995 The American Physical Society.

Semiempirical Model For The Electrical Properties Of La1-Xcaxcoo3, S. R. Sehlin, Harlan U. Anderson, Don M. Sparlin
Materials Science and Engineering Faculty Research & Creative Works
A semiempirical model of the Seebeck coefficient for a small polaron hopping conductor is presented. The population of small polarons is allowed to change as a function of temperature via the mechanism of charge disproportionation. The energy required for polaron formation by the disproportionation mechanism is modeled as screened by a Coulomb interaction with nearby small polarons. The charge carrier site occupancies generated by the model are used to successfully predict the electrical conductivity and Seebeck coefficient for compositions in the La1-xCaxCoO3 system. Cobalt ion valence populations predicted by the model are used to calculate effective paramagnetic moments for LaCoO3, …

Crystal structure, thermal expansion, thermogravimetry, thermoelectricity, and electrical conductivity of compositions in the system La0.8Sr0.2Co1-yFeyO3 with 0 ≤ y ≤ 1 were studied as function of Co Fe ratio and temperature, in air. The electrical conduction mechanism is attributed to the adiabatic-hopping of p-type small polarons. At high temperatures, oxygen deficiency causes lattice expansion and a reduction in electrical conductivity. The observed temperature dependence of the Seebeck coefficient is attributed to changes in carrier concentration caused by a thermally excited charge disproportionation of Co3+ ions and by the ionic compensation of induced oxygen vacancies. The measured electrical conductivity and Seebeck …

The projectile energy loss for 7.5--25-MeV C6+,5+ and F6+ ions was measured for single collisions with He, Ne, Ar, and Kr as a function of the recoil-ion charge state and the projectile scattering. This energy loss was measured for collisions in which the projectile captured an electron and for those involving just direct ionization. We investigated and found a large average energy transfer (100--250 eV/electron) to the continuum electrons. A strong increase of the scattering angle with recoil-ion charge state was observed for both capture and direct ionization. The results imply that, for smaller impact parameters, higher recoil-ion …

Lattice- And Molecular-Dynamics Studies Of Rbliso4, V. Katkanant, John R. Hardy
John R. Hardy Papers
Using our previously developed method for calculating parameter-free potential-energy surfaces for ionic molecular crystals, specifically sulfates, we study phase transitions in RbLiSO4 by means of lattice and molecular dynamics. We found that the high-temperature phase I (Pnam) is highly unstable and transforms to the observed lower temperature phase VI (P1121/n) at about 475–525 K. Compared with isomorphous CsLiSO4, there are more branches of unstable modes in the Pnam phase for RbLiSO4. The maximum instability of these modes occurs away from the zone center, q=(0.118a*,0,0), which implies that a high-order …
