Simulation of the Accelerating Systems of Cyclotrons for Applications

The results of a comparative numerical investigation of three types of resonator systems of a cyclotron for acceleration of negative hydrogen and deuterium ions up to maximum energy 30 and 15 MeV, respectively, are presented. It is shown that a vertical system with two half-wave resonators excited in-phase has the smallest active losses and the smallest differential of the amplitude of the accelerating voltage along the edge of the dees and is effective for accelerating particles at dual working frequencies.

Characteristic curves of hydrogenated amorphous silicon based solar cells modeled with the defect pool model

Using the improved expression of the defect pool model proposed by Powell and Deane we match the experimental current-voltage and the spectral response characteristic curves of hydrogenated amorphous silicon solar cells. We compare the electrical parameters resulting from using the different defect pool models published in the literature and from assuming a uniform density of dangling bond in every device layer. We discuss the applicability of the algorithm derived by Schumm for the stabilized state exploring its sensitivity to the sample history. Finally we propose an expression for stabilized cells adapting Schumm's ideas to the expression derived by Powell and Deane.     

Uranium(III) in aqueous solutions: Preparation,properties, synthesis of solid compounds

Published data on the preparation procedures, stability, and complexation of U(III) in aqueous solutions are summarized and correlated. Reactions with inorganic and organic free radicals studied by the flash radiolysis method, the spectroscopic properties, the extraction and ion-exchange behavior of U(III), and methods for isolation of solid U(III) compounds from aqueous solutions are discussed.     

Getting a handle on MATLAB graphics

Among engineers and scientists, MATLAB is one of the most popular computational packages. Part of MATLAB's popularity stems from its simple, yet sophisticated, graphics capabilities. While basic plots are relatively easy to obtain, specialized plots require a little more effort to produce. This article introduces MATLAB's Handle Graphics, which provides a mechanism to fully control and customize graphics objects in MATLAB. With a basic understanding of Handle Graphics, users can produce plots that meet the unique needs and quality standards commonly required by the profession, several examples are presented to illustrate the concepts.     

A New Generation of Magnetic Roll Separators Based on Rare-Earth Magnets for Concentration and Purification of Weakly Magnetic Materials

Magnetic roll separators on rare-earth magnets are suitable for removing iron impurities from various materials. The advantages of these magnetic separators over traditional ones are demonstrated. __________ Translated from Steklo i Keramika, No. 5, p. 33, May, 2005.
