ABSTRACTRutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) is used to characterize the stoichiometry of graphite intercalation compounds (GIC). Specific application is made to several stages of different donor and acceptor compounds and to commensurate and incommensurate intercalants. A deviation from the theoretical stoichiometry is measured for most of the compounds using this non-destructive method. Within experimental error, the RBS results agree with those obtained from analysis of the (00ℓ) x-ray diffractograms and weight uptake measurements on the same samples.

AbstractThe transport of ions through cement pastes and mortars with variable contents of fly ashes and granulated blast-furnace slag from different sources and with variable composition has been investigated. The research included the determination of chloride diffusion rate and chloride permeability in relation to microstructure development. The median pore size generally was much diminished in mature blended material compared with Portland cement (PC) pastes and mortars. It appears that, at the same age, a finer microstructure is generally developed in blended specimens compared to PC specimens. Also, it was found that the microstructure approaches a limiting value at longer ages of hydration. That limiting value may be reached at earlier ages with the blends. The chloride diffusion rates and permeabilities in the blends were significantly lower than PC mixes. A comparison between the blends containing fly ashes and those containing slag was made.

AbstractWe have carried out systematic experiments to explore the range of applicability of the two direct methods which are available for the determination of the nature of small clusters. Experiments in heavy-ion irradiated silver and copper, including direct comparisons with the results of Black-White contrast analysis (B-W), forced us to the conclusion that use of the 21/2D technique for the analysis of faulted loops is effectively impossible because of reciprocal-lattice spike and other effects. We used B-W analysis to investigate the nature of the clusters produced by room-temperature heavy-ion irradiation of copper. In-situ irradiations were performed in the Argonne HVEM-Tandem Facility using 40keV and 80keV Kr+ ions. Nearly all of the analysable first-layer loops were found to be vacancy in nature. Some deeper clusters were also certainly vacancy. There is no unequivocal evidence for interstitial loops under these conditions. The near impossibility of establishing that interstitial loops are not present is shown by the fact that a large fraction of loops - over 50% - could not be analysed either because they did not display clear B-W contrast under any condition or sufficiently consistent B-W contrast under several different operating conditions.

AbstractFreeze-out conditions in Heavy Ion Collisions are generally determined by comparing experimental results for ratios of particle yields with theoretical predictions based on applications of the Hadron Resonance Gas model. We discuss here how this model dependent determination of freeze-out parameters may eventually be replaced by theoretical predictions based on equilibrium QCD thermodynamics.
