Pair and triple correlations in theA+B→Bdiffusion-controlled reaction
1994
An exact solution for the one-dimensional kinetics of the diffusion-controlled reaction A+B\ensuremath{\rightarrow}B is obtained by means of the three-particle correlation functions. Because of a lattice discreteness each site could be occupied by a single particle only which leads to the so-called ``bus effect'': Recombination of any particle A is defined by a spatial configuration of two nearest particles B only surrounding A from its left and right. This results in the unusual algebraic decay law, n(t)\ensuremath{\propto}${\mathit{t}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}1}$, which asymptotically (as t\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}) does not depend on the trap B concentration.
The key reactions in Stellar helium burning: 12C(α,γ)16O and 22Ne(α,n)25Mg
2003
Abstract The excitation functions of 12C(α,γ)16O and 22Ne(α,n)25Mg have been determined with a yet unequaled experimental sensitivity of 10−11 b. From γ-angular distributions the SE1-and SE2-factors for 12C(α,γ)16O have been deduced and extrapolated into the range of helium burning temperatures using the R-matrix method. An improved reaction rate has been calculated: NA〈σν〉=(7.9±2.5)x10−15cm3(mols)−1 at T9 = 0.2. For a more precise extrapolation the excitation function has to be measured with better statistics. Therefore a new experiment on 12C(α,γ)16O with a better suited setup has been started recently. The accuracy of the 22Ne(α,n)25Mg reaction rate could be improved considerably compare…
Spin distribution measurement for 64Ni + 100Mo at near and above barrier energies
2015
Spin distribution measurements were performed for the reaction 64 Ni + 100 Mo at three beam energies ranging from 230 to 260 MeV. Compound nucleus (CN) spin distributions were obtained channel selective for each evaporation residue populated by the de-excitation cascade. A comparison of the spin distribution at different beam energies indicates that its slope becomes steeper and steeper with increasing beam energy. This change in slope of the spin distribution is mainly due to the onset of fission competition with particle evaporation at higher beam energies.
Spatial recurrence strategies reveal different routes to Turing pattern formation in chemical systems
2009
We analyze the temporal evolution of hexagonal Turing patterns in two Belousov–Zhabotinsky reactions performed in water-in-oil reverse micro-emulsions under different experimental conditions. The two reactions show different routes to pattern formation through localized spots and through a self replication mechanism. The Generalized Recurrence Plot (GRP) and the Generalized Recurrence Quantification Analysis (GRQA) are used for the investigation of spatial patterns and clearly reveal the different routes leading to the formation of stationary Turing structures.
Reaction dynamics and nuclear structure studies via deep inelastic collisions with heavy-ions: spin and parity assignment in49Ca
2011
The population and gamma decay of neutron rich nuclei around 48Ca has been measured at Legnaro National Laboratory with the PRISMA-CLARA setup, using deep-inelastic collisions (DIC) on 64Ni, at an energy approximately twice the Coulomb barrier. The reaction properties of the main products are investigated, focusing on total cross sections and angular distributions both integrated in energy and associated to the population of specific excited states. Gamma spectroscopy studies are also performed, giving evidence, for the first time in transfer reactions with heavy ions, of a large spin alignment (~70%), perpendicular to the reaction plane. This makes possible the use of angular distributions…
Effect of nonequilibrium charge screening in A + B ? 0 bimolecular reactions in condensed matter
1993
The formalism of many-particle densities developed earlier by the present authors is applied to the study of the cooperative effects in the kinetics of bimolecular A +B--*0 reactions between oppositely charged particles (reactants). It is shown that unlike the Debye-Hiickel theory in statistical physics, here charge screening has essentially a nonequilibrium character. For the asymmetric mobility of reactants (DA=0, D~4:0) the joint spatial distribution of similar immobile reactants A reveals at short distances a singular character associated with their aggregation. The relevant reaction rate does not approach a steady state (as it does in the symmetric case, DA=DB), but increases infinitel…
Vertical ground reaction force measurements and video measurements provide comparable estimates of distance moved by mice during artificial light and…
2011
Video-based measures of spontaneous activity of rodents are of interest in studying, e.g. physiology. However, video-based tracking methods typically require light. The purpose of the present study was to develop a video based method for tracking movements of mice during a dark period. The method was applied in comparing the dark and light period activities of mice. Ten male mice were used in the present study. The activity of the animals was monitored simultaneously with video and ground reaction force (GRF) recordings during consecutive 12h periods of artificial light and dark. Texture based background subtraction method was used to track the mouse from the video recording, while the weig…
Radiochemical study of the kinematics of multi-nucleon transfer reactions in 48Ca + 248Cm collisions 10% above the Coulomb barrier
2017
Abstract The kinematics of multi-nucleon transfer reactions in 48Ca + 248Cm collisions at 262 MeV (center of target) was investigated by using a stacked-foil technique and radiochemical separations of trans-curium elements. Trans-curium isotopes were identified by α-particle spectroscopy. For Fm isotopes, by comparing the centroids of the measured post-neutron emission isotope distributions with the most probable primary mass number predicted by Volkov's generalized Q g g systematics, the missing mass (number of evaporated neutrons) is estimated. The latter is compared with that deduced from the measured centroid of the laboratory angular distribution peaked closely to the grazing angle and…
Identification of yrast states in187Pb
1998
gamma-ray spectroscopy of the high-spin states of the neutron-deficient nucleus Pb-187 has been conducted with the Gd-155(Ar-36,4n) reaction. A cascade of three transitions was deduced from gamma-gamma coincidence data gated by detection of recoiling evaporation residues in a gas-filled recoil separator. In an earlier, separate experiment, two of these gamma rays were positively identified with Pb-187 by recoil-gamma coincidence measurements with a high-resolution, recoil mass spectrometer. From comparison with similar sequences in heavier odd-A lead isotopes, the cascade in Pb-187 is associated with the sequence of three E2 transitions from the yrast 25/2(+) level to a low-lying 13/2(+) is…
Virtual compton scattering under π0 threshold at Q2=0.33 GeV2. Preliminary results
1999
We have measured the absolute unpolarized cross sections for photon electro-production off the proton ep → epγ with the Three-Spectrometer-Setup at MAMI at a momentum transfer q=600 MeV/c and a virtual photon polarization ɛ=0.62. The momentum q ′ of the outgoing real photon range from 33 to 111 MeV/c. We extracted two combinations of the recently introduced generalized polarizabilities [1,2].
