We use molecular dynamics to analyze the dependence on the impact angle of the distribution of defects originated by the deposition of a Ag/sub 19/ cluster on Pd(100) at initial kinetic energies 0.1, 2, 20 and 95 eV. For increasing energy the cluster under ...
High-resolution neutron scattering experiments on optimally doped La2-xSrxCuO4 (x=0.16) reveal that the magnetic excitations are dispersive. The dispersion is the same as in YBa2Cu3O6.85, and is quantitatively related to that observed with charge sensitive ...
Electron beam instabilities occurring in a gyrotron electron beam can induce an energy spread which might significantly deteriorate the gyrotron efficiency. Three types of instabilities are considered to explain the important discrepancy found between the ...
We use the intense, 5-ns-long, excitation pulses provided by the fourth harmonic of a neodymium-doped yttrium aluminum garnet (Nd:YAG) laser to induce a strong high-energy shift of the photoluminescence of a 7.8-nm-wide GaN/Al0.15Ga0.85N single quantum wel ...
The time dependence of the photoluminescence of GaN/AlN quantum dots (QD's) after high photoexcitation is examined on a large time scale. A continuous change in energy peak is reported, resulting in a giant energy shift of more than 1 eV after delays of se ...
We have investigated the intersubband scattering of electrons in GaAs quantum wells using luminescence up-conversion with 100-fs resolution. The decay time of the n=2 electron-to-heavy-hole transition (e,hh)(2) depends both on the excess energy of the char ...
Aerobic chemostat cultures of S. cerevisiae were performed at different diln. rates under energy (glucose) limitation or at various extents of energy excess imposed by a N limitation. Energy excess induced metabolic uncoupling under steady-state conditions ...
While most of the emphasis has been focused on the radiated threat represented by intentional electromagnetic interference, it is clear that the threat from conducted disturbances should not be neglected. Conducted threats include those that are produced b ...
As energy plays a central role in the world development, it represents as well a major challenge for sustainable development. Today, more than 80% of the primary energy consumption is based on fossil fuels and the share is likely to remain high in the futu ...
The use of filamentous catalysts for innovative design of chemical reactors with structured catalytic beds is discussed in detail. The fluid dynamics attained in such reactors avoid transport limitations (mixing or heat- and mass-transfer) and increase rea ...
