We have investigated the behavior of vortices in a polycrystalline YBa 2 Cu 3 O 7-δ disk sample using rotational magnetization-vector (RMV) measurements. The measurements were conducted in the field-cooled (FC) and the zero-field cooled (ZFC) states for several values of applied magnetic field parallel to the sample surface at 4.2 K and for various angles of rotation (θ rot ) up to 360°. The total magnetic flux density, B, in the sample at any rotational angle was considered to be composed of two types of vortices: weakly pinned vortices that rotate frictionally in the opposite direction of sample rotation and strongly pinned vortices that rotate rigidly in the same direction of sample rotation. From the rate of change of these two types of vortices and the rate of change of B, we were able to develop a tool to qualitatively describe the average strength of pinning centers in high-temperature superconductors.

A methodology has been developed for the analysis of nonconducting (oxide) powder samples by glow discharge atomization-atomic absorption spectrometry (GDA-AAS). The mixing of an oxide powder with a copper host matrix (1:9) allows pressing of a disk sample for glow discharge sputtering. Sample-to-sample precisions are on the order of 3–4% for iron in a geological specimen. The ability to generate analytical working curves is demonstrated for the analysis of iron by mixing Fe (III) and Al (III) oxides in the copper matrix material. The possible utility of the methodology is illustrated by the analysis of iron in an NBS geological reference material. The ability to perform analyses of these sample types suggests its applicability to such matrices as ceramics, glasses, and refractory-based catalysts.

Background and aims. The aim of this study was to assess the radiopacity of two bioceramic-based root canal sealers, the conventional TotalFill BC sealer (FKG Dentaire Switzerland) and a new experimental filling material developed in collaboration with 'Raluca Ripan' Institute for Research in Chemistry, Cluj-Napoca. Methods. Five disc samples were prepared using both materials (10 mm diameter x 1 mm thickness), being subjected to digital radiography together with aluminum step wedges (1 to 12 mm in thickness), in accordance with ISO 6876: 2012. Radiopacity was determined by the computer analysis of the images obtained. Four different areas were selected for each sample, corresponding to a disk-sample quadrant. Statistical analysis was performed using ANOVA.Results. Both materials showed a radiopacity that was 3 mm greater than the equivalent thickness of aluminum. Total Fill BC showed greater radiopacity than the experimental material, but the differences were not statistically significant. Conclusions. Both materials comply with ISO 6876: 2012 recommendations on minimum radiopacity.

Wear Resistance of Aluminized Steel Plates The results of the abrasion resistance measurements of aluminized steel strips are presented in the hereby paper. Steel strips of DX52D+AS120 grade, before and after a heat treatment at temperatures of 200-1000°C for 1 - 5760 minutes, were tested. Tests of the abrasion resistance were carried on in a specially built device: rotating disk - sample performing a plane-rotary motion, with an application of a lubricating medium. Examinations of the abrasion resistance were also performed by means of the block-on-ring tester. Estimations of a coating mass loss, roughness and thickness changes were carried on. The obtained results are illustrated by diagrams and macro- and micro-observations. Phase analysis investigations were also performed on samples selected after the abrasibility testing. The range of the heat treatment parameters - after which the Al-Si coating increased its abrasion resistance - was estimated.
