Mетодами дифференциально-термического (ДТА), рентгенофазового (РФА), микроструктурного (МСА) анализа, а также измерения микротвердости и плотности, исследована система As2Se3-In2Te3 и построена Т - х фазовая диаграмма. Система As2Sе3-In2Te3 является квазибинарным сечением тройной взаимной системы As,In//Sе,Te. Cоединение In2As2Se3Te3 кристаллизуется в тетрагональной сингонии с параметрами решетки: а =9,40; с =6,36 Å, плотность ρпикн.=5,36 г/см3, ρрент.=5,85 г/см3. В системе образуется одно инконгруэнтное соединение In2As2Sе3Te3,плавящееся при 620оС. Выявлено, что в системе твердые растворы на основе In2Te3 доходят до 3 мол. %, а на основе As2Sе3 практически не обнаружены. В системе при медленном охлаждении область стеклообразования на основе As2Sе3 доходит до 7 мол. % In2Te3, а в режиме закалки в ледяной воде около 12 мол. % In2Te3. By the methods of differential thermal (DTA), X-ray phase (XRD), microstructural (MSA) analysis, as well as measurements of microhardness and density, the As2Se3-In2Te3 system was investigated and the T-x phase diagram was constructed. The As2Sе3-In2Te3 system is a quasi-binary section of the ternary reciprocal system As, In // Se, Te. One incongruent compound In2As2Sе3Te3 is formed in the system, melting at 620оС. Compound In2As2Sе3Te3 crystallizes in the tetragonal system with lattice parameters: a = 9.40; с = 6.36 Å, density ρpycn. = 5.36 g/cm3, ρX-rey. = 5.85 g/cm3. It was found that in the system, solid solutions based on In2Te3 reach 3 mol. %, and practically not found on the basis of As2Sе3. In the system, upon slow cooling, the glass formation region based on As2Se3 reaches 7 mol. % In2Te3, and in the mode of quenching in ice water about 12 mol. % In2Te3.

Abstract Compact torus (CT) injection is one of the most promising methods for the central fuelling of next-generation reactor-grade fusion devices due to its high density, high velocity, and self-contained magnetised structure. A newly compact torus injector (CTI) device in Keda Torus eXperiment (KTX), named KTX-CTI, was successfully developed and tested at the University of Science and Technology in China. In this study, first, we briefly introduce the basic principles and structure of KTX-CTI, and then, present an accurate circuit model that relies on nonlinear regression analysis (NRA) for studying the current waveform of the formation region. The current waveform, displacement, and velocity of CT plasma in the acceleration region are calculated using this NRA-based one-dimensional point model. The agreement between the model results and the experimental results is better than in the previous general model results estimated by the device dimensions in previous. The next-step upgrading reference scheme of the KTX-CTI device is preliminarily investigated using this NRA-based point model. This research can provide insights for the development of experiments and future upgrades of the device.

Abstract One of the directions of using plasma sources is the formation of plasma emitters for electron beams as part of direct-action charged particle accelerators. The parameters of the accelerator generators require mutual matching with the characteristics of the plasma emitters. The paper describes the design, composition and diagnostic equipment of an experimental stand based on a vacuum chamber of a pulsed electron accelerator for testing plasma sources of pulsed electron beams. The stand includes a vacuum volume with a high-voltage bushing, pumping out pipes, diagnostic windows along the perimeter and a mounting flange of a complex device for diagnosing the characteristics of pulsed electron beams. The stand provides the possibility of controlled supply of gas and liquid to the formation region of the plasma emitter of electrons under the influence of an accelerating voltage pulse. The location of the diagnostic windows and flanges of the stand allows direct optical observations of the plasma formation region in the frontal and profile directions. The use of the stand will make it possible to determine the characteristics of the tested plasma emitters for their operation as part of a vacuum diode of pulsed electron accelerator.

Abstract. Glacial periods undergo frequent climate shifts between warm interstadials and cold stadials on a millennial timescale. Recent studies show that the duration of these climate modes varies with the background climate; a colder background climate and lower CO2 generally result in a shorter interstadial and a longer stadial through its impact on the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC). However, the duration of stadials is shorter during Marine Isotope Stage 3 (MIS3) than during MIS5, despite the colder climate in MIS3, suggesting potential control from other climate factors on the duration of stadials. In this study, we investigate the role of glacial ice sheets. For this purpose, freshwater hosing experiments are conducted with an atmosphere–ocean general circulation model under MIS5a and MIS3 boundary conditions, as well as MIS3 boundary conditions with MIS5a ice sheets. The impact of ice sheet differences on the duration of the stadials is evaluated by comparing recovery times of the AMOC after the freshwater forcing is stopped. These experiments show a slightly shorter recovery time of the AMOC during MIS3 compared with MIS5a, which is consistent with ice core data. We find that larger glacial ice sheets in MIS3 shorten the recovery time. Sensitivity experiments show that stronger surface winds over the North Atlantic shorten the recovery time by increasing the surface salinity and decreasing the sea ice amount in the deepwater formation region, which sets favorable conditions for oceanic convection. In contrast, we also find that surface cooling by larger ice sheets tends to increase the recovery time of the AMOC by increasing the sea ice thickness over the deepwater formation region. Thus, this study suggests that the larger ice sheet during MIS3 compared with MIS5a could have contributed to the shortening of stadials in MIS3, despite the climate being colder than that of MIS5a, because surface wind plays a larger role.

In the process of deep-water drilling, gas hydrate is easily formed in wellbores due to the low temperature and high pressure environment. In this study, a new, systematic, and accurate prediction method of temperature, pressure, and hydrate formation region in wellbores is developed. The mathematical models of wellbore pressure and transient heat transfer are established, the numerical solution method based on fully implicit finite difference method is developed, and the accuracy is verified by comparing with the field measured data. Combined with the hydrate phase equilibrium model, the hydrate formation region in wellbore is predicted, and the sensitivity effects of nine factors on wellbore temperature, pressure, and hydrate formation region are analyzed. Finally, the influence regularities and degree of each parameter are obtained. The increases of circulation time, geothermal gradient, displacement of drilling fluid, and injection temperature will inhibit the formation of hydrate in wellbores, and the influence degree increases in turn; the increases of wellhead backpressure and seawater depth will promote the formation of hydrate in wellbores, and the influence degree increases in turn. The changes of drilling fluid density, well depth, and hole deviation angle have little effect on the formation of hydrate in wellbores.

The possibility of using the compositions of BaSO4-KPO3-Na2B4O7 system as a glass-solder (frit) material was shown. A glass formation region has been established in BaSO4-KPO3-Na2B4O7 system which is located in the borate-phosphate part of the concentration triangle and occupies ~41% of the triangle area. The concentration dependences of linear thermal expansion coefficient (TCLE), the softening temperature and the glass transition temperature was determined and discussed. It is established that the glass formation region, the concentration dependences of TCLE and technological temperatures values are significantly closer to those for CaSO4-KPO3-Na2B4O7 system than for MgSO4-KPO3-Na2B4O7 system. That may point out at the similar effect barium sulphate and calcium sulphate doping in the sulphate-phosphate-borate systems.

The impact of ice sheet differences on the duration of the stadials was evaluated by comparing recovery times of the AMOC after freshwater forcing was reduced. Hosing experiments showed a slightly shorter recovery time of the AMOC in MIS3 compared with MIS5a, which was consistent with ice core data. We found that larger glacial ice sheets in MIS3 shortened the recovery time. Sensitivity experiments showed that stronger surface winds over the North Atlantic shortened the recovery time by increasing the surface salinity and decreasing the sea ice amount in the deepwater formation region, which set favourable conditions for oceanic convection.

AbstractThe Subantarctic Mode Water (SAMW) plays an essential role in the global heat, freshwater, carbon, and nutrient budgets. In this study, decadal changes in the SAMW properties in the Southern Indian Ocean (SIO) and associated thermodynamic and dynamic processes are investigated during the Argo era. Both temperature and salinity of the SAMW in the SIO show increasing trends during 2004-2018. A two-layer structure of the SAMW trend, with more warm and salty light SAMW but less cool and fresh dense SAMW, is identified. The heaving and spiciness processes are important but have opposite contributions to the temperature and salinity trends of the SAMW. A significant deepening of isopycnals (heaving), peaking at σθ=26.7-26.8 kg m−3in the middle layer of the SAMW, expands the warm and salty light SAMW and compresses the cool and fresh dense SAMW corresponding to the change in subduction rate during 2004-2018. The change in the SAMW subduction rate is dominated by the change in the mixed layer depth, controlled by the changes in wind stress curl and surface buoyancy loss. An increase in the mixed-layer temperature due to weakening northward Ekman transport of cool water leads to a lighter surface density in the SAMW formation region. Consequently, density outcropping lines in the SAMW formation region shift southward and favor the intrusion and entrainment of the cooler and fresher Antarctic surface water from the south, contributing to the cooling/freshening trend of isopycnals (spiciness). Subsequently, the cooler and fresher SAMW spiciness anomalies spread in the SIO via the subtropical gyre.
