A new method of experimental measurement of the imploded mass of laser-imploded shell targets is proposed. This method is based on simultaneous measurements of the velocity spectrum of the neutral atom flux emitted from the imploded part of the target, and the total energy carried by them. A semiconductor diode with a shallowly located p – n junction was used as the low energy neutral particle detector. By means of the time of flight method neutral atom fluxes with velocities υ ∼ (0·6 − 1·8) × 107cm/s were registered in experiments carried out on the 6-beam laser system “Delfin”.

Abstract The paper presents a method for testing the shrinkage of concrete beams with dimensions of 10x10x50cm. Measurements followed from setting into the form until 24 hours after setting. It was used modified TLS system, which originally was meant for the determination of changes in the length of thin-mortar. Simultanously measured were the changes of speed propagation of sound waves by Vikasonic, what allows to specify the setting time of binders. It could be a base for determining the scratch resistance of the concrete in the first 24 hours after casting.

A spectrographic technique using a specially designed cup electrode is proposed for the determination of indium and gallium in a solution of cadmium telluride. The electrode consists of an alumina cup which serves as a reservoir for the sample and a central tungsten rod supporting a graphite rod. It allows the excitation under low voltage over damped discharge. The method is especially useful for analysis of small quantities of material. The addition of a suitable amount of lithium has been found to enhance the intensity of the neutral atom lines of indium and gallium. Approximate determination limits for indium and gallium are 0.5 μg/ml, and the coefficient of variation for the determination is about 6% at the 5 μg/ml level.

The aim of this work was to evaluate the performance of femtosecond laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (fs-LIBS) for the determination of elements in animal tissues. Sample pellets were prepared from certified reference materials, such as liver, kidney, muscle, hepatopancreas, and oyster, after cryogenic grinding assisted homogenization. Individual samples were placed in a two-axis computer-controlled translation stage that moved in the plane orthogonal to a beam originating from a Ti:Sapphire chirped-pulse amplification (CPA) laser system operating at 800 nm and producing a train of 840 μJ and 40 fs pulses at 90 Hz. The plasma emission was coupled into the optical fiber of a high-resolution intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD)–echelle spectrometer. Time-resolved characteristics of the laser-produced plasmas showed that the best results were obtained with delay times between 80 and 120 ns. Data obtained indicate both that it is a matrix-independent sampling process and that fs-LIBS can be used for the determination of Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Na, and P, but efforts must be made to obtain more appropriate detection limits for Al, Sr, and Zn.
