We have performed Monte-Carlo simulations of the growth of GaAs by MBE. We included in our calculations the anisotropy of the migration, the formation of As-and a partial desorption of the As. As an observable we calculated the RHEED signal of the specularly reflected electrons. The results have been compared with experimental data comprising both the damping of the oscillations and the recovery following a growth interrupt. The agreement between experiment and calculations is rather good. Moreover we could identify the mechanisms underlying the fast and the slow component of the recovery.

In this work, we develop and calibrate a model to represent the trajectory of a badminton shuttlecock and use it to investigate the influence of serve height in view of a new serve rule instated by the Badminton World Federation. The new rule means that all players must launch the shuttlecock below a height of 1.15 m, as opposed to the old rule whereby the required launch height was under the rib cage of the server. The model is based on a forward dynamics model of ballistic trajectory with drag, and it is calibrated with experimental data. The experiments also served to determine the actual influence of the new rule on the shuttlecock launch position. The model is used in a Monte Carlo simulation to determine the statistical influence of the new serve rules on the player’s ability to perform good serves; i.e., serves with little opportunity for the receiver to attack. We conclude that, for the female player in question, serving below a height of 1.15 m makes it marginally more difficult to perform excellent serves. We also conclude that there might be alternative launch positions that would be less likely to produce the best serves but could be exploited as a tactical option.

The miscibility gap in H2–H2O mixtures is investigated by conducting Gibbs-ensemble Monte Carlo simulations. Our results indicate that H2–H2O immiscibility regions may have a significant impact on the structure and evolution of ice giant planets.

The spatial distribution of light through a rectangular gap bounded by highly reflective, diffuse surfaces was measured and compared with the results of Monte Carlo simulations. Incorporating radiant properties for real surfaces into a Monte Carlo code was seen to be a significant problem; a number of techniques for accomplishing this are discussed. Independent results are reported for measured values of the bidirectional reflectance distribution function over incident polar angles from 0 to 90 deg for a semidiffuse surface treatment (Krylon™ flat white spray paint). The inclusion of this information into a Monte Carlo simulation yielded various levels of agreement with experimental results. The poorest agreement occurred when the incident radiation was at a grazing angle with respect to the surface and the reflectance was nearly specular.

Hunter (1977) found that a Monte-Carlo simulation of electron swarms in hydrogen, based on an isotropic scattering model, produced discrepancies between the predicted and measured electron transport parameters. The present paper shows that, with an anisotropic scattering model, good agreement is obtained between the predicted and experimental data. The simulation code is used here to calculate various parameters which are not directly measurable.
