The Hanle effect in the 4s21S0–4s4p1P1 (4226.7 Å) transition in Ca I has been observed over a wide range of densities. The low density observations determine the lifetime of the 1P1 level to be 4.49 ns. Collision parameters are obtained from observations in the high density region.

Monte Carlo data have been generated for a simple model fluid consisting of hard spheres with an attractive triangular well potential. The ranges spanned by the temperature and density are as follows. [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The machine data have been compared to the modern perturbation theories of (i) Barker, Henderson, and Smith and (ii) Weeks, Chandler, and Andersen. Comparison with the machine data shows that the latter theory is successful in the high density region only, but over a wide range of temperature. The Barker–Henderson approach is best in the low density region but the use of the superposition approximation limits the utility of this theory at high densities.

The change in the Hanle effect of the singlet resonance line of neutral barium has been studied over a wide range of density. The low density region has been used to confirm a lifetime of 8.37 ± 0.08 ns for the 6s6p1P1 level. We have determined the cross sections for the relaxation of the multipole moment of order 2 for collisions of the excited level with the ground level and with the metastable 6s5d1D2 level, and comparisons are made with the measured value of [Formula: see text] for the ground level with theoretical predictions.

The Hanle effect in the 3s2 1S0–3s4p1P1 (2026 Å) transition of Mg I has been studied over a range of densities. The low density observations lead to an accurate lifetime measurement of the 4p1P1 excited level. Related oscillator strengths are calculated.

We suggest that the shape of a young asymmetric planetary nebulae may be influenced by a close binary star located at its center. This binary is a relic of the common envelope phase, presumably through which the asymmetric planetary nebula evolved. We assume that for a short period of time, shortly after the cession of the slow wind and long before the fast wind becomes effective, the binary ejects a small amount of mass, mainly in the equatorial plane. In this work we do not discuss the exact mechanism for the ejection of this pulse of mass. In the case in which the cooling is very efficient, (i.e., high-Mach-number isothermal flow), we can solve the problem analytically by using a few simplifying assumptions. In this case the high density region is shaped like a ring. We use two-dimensional hydrodynamics for the more general case. We find that at late times the high density region has a “horseshoe” shape, as viewed in the symmetry plane. There is an instability in the maximum density region. Finally we compare our results with the shape of the planetary nebula M2-9.

The traffic flow on a 3-lane highway is investigated using a cellular automaton method. Two different kinds of vehicles, cars and trucks, with different driving behaviors are presented on the highway. It is found that in the high density region, a control scheme requiring passing from the inner lane will enhance the traffic flow; while restricting the trucks to the outer lane will enhance the flow in the low density region and also has the benefit of suppressing the unnecessary lane-changing rate.

In this research work, foaming behavior of selected polyethylene blends was studied in a solid-state batch process, using CO2 as the blowing agent. Special emphasis was paid towards finding a relationship between foamability and thermal and rheological properties of blends. Pure high-density polyethylene, linear low-density polyethylene, and their blends with two weight fraction levels of high-density polyethylene (10 and 25%wt.) were examined. The dry blended batches were mixed using an internal mixer in a molten state, and then the disk-shaped specimens, 1.8 mm in thickness, were produced for foaming purposes. The foaming step was conducted over a wide range of temperatures (120–170℃), and the overall expansion and cellular morphology were evaluated via density measurements and captured SEM micrographs, respectively. Three-dimensional structural images were also captured using a high resolution X-ray micro CT for different foamed samples and were compared. Rheological and DSC tests for the virgin and blends were also performed to seek for a possible correlation with the formability. Based on the results, blended polyethylene foams exhibited remarkable expansion and highly enhanced cell structure compared to pure polymers. Bulk density, as low as 0.33 g/cm3, was obtained for blends, while for the virgin high-density polyethylene  and linear low-density polyethylene, bulk density lower than 0.5 g/cm3 was not attainable. The lowest density was observed at a foaming temperature of 10–20℃ above the melting (peak) temperature obtained via DSC test. Rheological characteristics, including storage modulus and cross-over frequency value, were also found to be the indicators for the materials foaming behavior. Moreover, blends with 25% wt. of high-density polyethylene exhibited the highest expansion values over a wider range of temperature compared with 90% linear low-density polyethylene/10% high-density polyethylene.

AbstractTwo cast multi-crystalline silicon (mc-Si) sister wafers before and after solar cell processing were investigated to explore the gettering effect in low and high density structural defect regions. For the processed wafer, the minority carrier recombination lifetime was correlated to the structural defect distribution. For the low density region of as-grown wafer, Cr impurities were 3.28x1013cm-3 and they were reduced to 1.74×1012cm−3 for the processed wafer. The isolated Cr impurities dissolved from the precipitates at 900°C which is the typical gettering temperature in the solar cell processing are getterd effectively in the low density regions. Our current understanding for the gettering effect in the high density regions is that the segregated Cr impurities at defect sites are not released to the silicon matrix at 900°C resulting in the poor gettering effect.
