This thesis addresses the link between capillarity parameters, i.e. surface tension and contact angle, and the infiltration of porous preforms with molten metal by pressure infiltration The method used is to conduct pressure infiltration experiments of sel ...
Hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen isotopic compositions are heterogeneous among comet 81P/Wild 2 particle fragments; however, extreme isotopic anomalies are rare, indicating that the comet is not a pristine aggregate of presolar materials. Nonterrestr ...
A campaign of pure helium discharges in the JET tokamak equipped with the MarkIIGB divertor has been performed. This paper describes some of the experimental observations of divertor detachment obtained in L-mode density ramp He discharges and presents a s ...
Mol.-dynamics simulations of structural relaxation in electronically excited NO-doped solid neon are presented. The NO impurity is excited to its lowest A (3ss) Rydberg state, inducing a rearrangement of the surrounding medium in the form of a bubble, due ...
The dynamics of electron bubble formation upon excitation of the A(3ss) Rydberg orbital of NO in solid Ne was studied by conventional spectroscopy and fs pump-probe spectroscopy. The fs pump pulse initiates the formation of a bubble by the expansion of the ...
The authors present mol. dynamics simulations of the absorption spectra of the Hg2 mol. in solid Ne, Ar, and Xe. The simulations were performed using classical mol. dynamics (MD) and a diat.-in-mols. (DIM) treatment of the mixing of the different states of ...
The dynamics of electron bubble formation upon excitation of the A(3ss) Rydberg orbital of NO in solid Ne was studied by femtosecond pump-probe spectroscopy. The authors observe an ultrafast expansion of the bubble, followed by a vibrational recurrence in ...
Mass selected cluster deposition is discussed with respect to three questions: what is the integrity of the clusters after deposition; are they uniform in terms of size and isomerisation; and finally what is the influence of the support on the clusters? Th ...
