We consider a nonlinear elliptic-parabolic system which stems from the modelling of heat induction processes in which a sinusoidal electromagnetic field is applied at the boundary of the inductor. The magnetic field satisfies an elliptic equation whereas t ...
We present the first static measurements of the density of metallic liquids in the Fe-S system in the pressure and temperature range 1.5 GPa-6.2 GPa and 1500 K - 1780 K. Density is inferred from X-ray absorption experiments carried out with a large volume ...
Remote sensing analysis of common mafic silicates on bodies like asteroid 433 Eros may be in error unless temperature effects are considered. In this paper, spectral sensitivity to temperature as a function of wavelength from 0.4 to 2.5 microns is quantifi ...
The diffusion of Mn, Cr, and Ti in single crystalline copper was investigated in the temperature range between 582 and 800 K, 639 and 829 It and 621 and 747 K, respectively. Ion beam sputtering in combination with secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) was ...
We study the deposition and the very first steps of nucleation and growth of Ag on Pd(100) with thermal energy atom scattering. This technique is a very sensitive and nonperturbing probe to surface point defects, which permits an in situ and in-time monito ...
A type of infrared imaging camera is demonstrated that uses gas-phase Rydberg atoms as photocathodes. The camera operates throughout the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum: l51 – 100 mm. The first results are presented and the potential of the c ...
Direct evidence for freezing in two relaxer ferroelectrics, PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3 and PbSc1/2Ta1/2O3, at a certain temperature T-f not equal 0K was obtained from the temperature dependence of the maximum relaxation time, tau(max), It was shown that tau(max)(T) fo ...
Mass selected Ag/sub n/ clusters (n=1,7,19) from a secondary ion source have been deposited onto a Pt(111) substrate at low temperature. The surface and resulting cluster morphology have subsequently been characterized within the same UHV chamber by variab ...
The microstructure of the low activation F82H ferritic/martensitic steel has been investigated in the cases of the heat treated, irradiated and deformed material. The irradiation has been achieved with 590 MeV protons in the Proton IRradiation EXperiment ( ...
We measured by internal photoemission the conduction-band discontinuity Delta E(c) in p-In0.53Ga0.47As/n-InP heterojunctions with a Si delta layer (1x10(12) cm(-2)) inserted in InP at 10 Angstrom from the interface. The n-type Si delta doping induced an in ...
