Computer modeling was applied to the study of [Formula: see text] transmutations in [Formula: see text] nanoparticles under the influence of neutrons at different energies. The modeling was separately performed for each Si and N atoms in the [Formula: see text] nanoparticles and the effect of neutrons on transmutations was investigated. The simulations were conducted individually for each stable isotope due to different effective cross-section of the probability of transmutation in the different types of isotopes of silicon and nitrogen atoms. Effective cross-section spectra of [Formula: see text] transmutation in Si and N atoms were comparatively studied.

The absorption of neutrons in nano-[Formula: see text] particles at different energies has been studied by computer modeling. The investigation was carried out separately for the silicon and nitrogen atoms that contain [Formula: see text] nanoparticles. Since the effective cross-section of absorption in different types of isotopes of silicon and nitrogen atoms is different, the modeling was performed separately for each stable isotope. Simultaneously, the effective cross-section spectra of neutrons for silicon and nitrogen atoms were studied.

The neutron capture processes in the AlN nanoparticles were investigated by computer modeling. Neutrons absorption were separately investigated for aluminum (Al) and nitrogen (N) atoms in the AlN nanoparticles. The modeling was performed separately for each stable Al and N isotopes, because the effective absorption cross-section of different types of isotopes of Al and N atoms is different. Moreover, effective cross-section spectra of neutron capture for aluminum and nitrogen atoms were comparatively investigated.

(n, p) transmutations in the silicon nitride (Si3N4) nanoparticles by the neutrons at different energies have been studied by computer simulation. The transmutations by neutrons in the nanomaterial were separately investigated for silicon and nitrogen atoms in the Si3N4 particles. Since the effective cross-section of the possible probability of transmutation is different in the various types of silicon and nitrogen atoms, the modeling was performed separately for each stable isotope. The spectra of the effective cross-sections of the (n, p) transmutations for silicon and nitrogen atoms have been studied in relation to each other.

Here a physical model for terminating giant planet formation is outlined and compared to other methods of late-stage giant planet formation. As has been pointed out before, gas accreting into a gap and onto the planet will encounter the planetary dynamo-generated magnetic field. The planetary magnetic field produces an effective cross section through which gas is accreted. Gas outside this cross section is recycled into the protoplanetary disk, hence only a fraction of mass that is accreted into the gap remains bound to the planet. This cross section inversely scales with the planetary mass, which naturally leads to stalled planetary growth late in the formation process. We show that this method naturally leads to Jupiter-mass planets and does not invoke any artificial truncation of gas accretion, as has been done in some previous population synthesis models. The mass accretion rate depends on the radius of the growing planet after the gap has opened, and we show that so-called hot-start planets tend to become more massive than cold-start planets. When this result is combined with population synthesis models, it might show observable signatures of cold-start versus hot-start planets in the exoplanet population.

The Gibson method utilizes the effect of water hammer phenomenon (hydraulic transients) in a pipeline for flow rate determination. The method consists in measuring a static pressure difference, which occurs between two cross-sections of the pipeline as a result of a temporal change of momentum from t0 to t1. This condition is induced when the water flow in the pipeline is stopped suddenly using a cut-off device. The flow rate is determined by integrating, within a proper time interval, the measured pressure difference change caused by the water hammer (inertia effect). However, several observations demonstrate that changes of pipeline geometry like diameter change, bifurcations, or direction shift by elbows may produce an effect on the computation of the flow rate. The paper focuses on this effect. Computational simulations have shown that the boundary layer separates when the flow faces sudden changes like these mentioned to above. The separation may reduce the effective cross section area of flow modifying a geometry factor involved into the computation of the flow rate. The remainder is directed to quantify the magnitude of such a factor under the influence of pipeline geometry changes. Results of numerical computations are discussed on the basis of how cross section reductions impact on the geometry factor magnitude and consequently on the mass flow rate.

AbstractThis study has deeply investigated the basic equations analysis of dispersion and loss in photonic crystal fibers (PCF) within the operating wavelengths of 850, 1,300, and 1,550 nm. The confinement loss, effective refractive index, and effective cross-section area of PCF are also studied. The variations of total dispersion and losses against hole diameter and distance between holes variations in PCF are clarified. Confinement loss, effective refractive index, and effective cross-section area variations for PCF are sketches with the variations of the operating wavelength.
