Ideal Spin Hydrodynamics from the Wigner Function Approach

Based on the Wigner function in local equilibrium, we derive hydrodynamical quantities for a system of polarized spin-1/2 particles: the particle number current density, the energy-momentum tensor, the spin tensor, and the dipole moment tensor. Compared with ideal hydrodynamics without spin, additional terms at the first and second orders in the Knudsen number Kn and the average spin polarization χs have been derived. The Wigner function can be expressed in terms of matrix-valued distributions, whose equilibrium forms are characterized by thermodynamical parameters in quantum statistics. The equations of motion for these parameters are derived by conservation laws at the leading and next-to-leading order Kn and χs .

Study of Molecular interaction in Binary Mixtures containing N, N-Dimethylformamide and n-Butanol

The acoustic studies of the interactions between alcohol molecules and water soluble polar solvent DMF are significant for understanding the relationships between structure and function of polar molecule like DMF, and for explaining the mechanisms of interaction of alcoholic OH group with an electronegative moiety. In this piece of work Ultrasonic velocity, density and viscosity have been measured at 298 K, 308 K, 318 K and 328 K for mixture of N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) and n-butanol, the frequency being maintained at a constant value. The experimental data have been used to calculate the acoustical and thermodynamical parameters like adiabatic compressibility, free length, free volume, internal pressure, acoustic impedance, Gibbs free energy

Current challenges in thermodynamic aspects of rubber foam

Natural rubber (NR) foam can be prepared by the Dunlop method using concentrated natural latex with chemical agents. Most previous studies have focused on the thermodynamic parameters of solid rubber in extension. The main objective of this study is to investigate the effect of the NR matrix concentration on the static and dynamic properties of NR foams, especially the new approach of considering the thermodynamic aspects of NR foam in compression. We found that the density and compression strength of NR foams increased with increasing NR matrix concentration. The mechanical properties of NR foam were in agreement with computational modelling. Moreover, thermodynamic aspects showed that the ratio of internal energy force to the compression force, Fu/F, and the entropy, S, increased with increasing matrix concentration. The activation enthalpy, ∆Ha, also increased with increasing matrix concentration in the NR foam, indicating the greater relaxation time of the backbone of the rubber molecules. New scientific concepts of thermodynamic parameters of the crosslinked NR foam in compression mode are proposed and discussed. Our results will improve both the knowledge and the development of rubber foams based on the structure–properties relationship, especially the new scientific concept of the thermodynamical parameters under compression.

THERMODYNAMICALLY INVESTIGATIONS OF FREE RADICAL SCAVENGER POTENCY OF 1,2,4-TRIHYDROXYTHIOXANTHONE

The operative mechanism of the antioxidative action of 1,2,4-trihydroxythioxanthone (TX) is investigated in this contribution. Conclusions are made based on enthalpy values, as thermodynamical parameters. All calculations are done using the M06-2X/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. To imitate polar and non-polar environments, calculations are done in water and benzene as the medium. It is found that, among three possible radicals that TX can generate, the most stable is the one obtained by homolytic cleavage of the O-H group in position 4. It was found that HAT (Hydrogen Atom Transfer) is the most plausible mechanism for that purpose in benzene. On the other hand, the most favorable mechanism in water is SPLET (Sequential Proton Loss Electron Transfer). Here is estimated the capacity of TX to deactivate hydroxyl (HO●), hydroperoxyl (HOO●) and methylperoxyl radical (CH3OO●). It is found that TX can deactivate all three free radicals following HAT and SPLET reaction mechanisms competitively, in the polar and non-polar environment. SET-PT (Single-Electron Transfer followed by Proton Transfer) is the inoperative mechanism for radicals scavenging, in the polar and non-polar environment.

Modulations in Self-Organization Properties of Surfactant in Aqueous Ionic Liquid Media

Ionic liquids (ILs) give a wide scope of favorable applications due to their much-upgraded properties. The strong electrostatic interactions between the cationic moiety of IL and the anionic surfactant play a very important role in the assembly of the large aggregates. We have investigated the aggregation behavior of anionic surfactants and IL in aqueous solution. Different temperatures and concentrations of IL have been taken to study the effect on critical micelles concentrations of surfactant. The critical micelle concentration values obtained by conductivity measurements are further confirmed by the fluorescence studies. The method is based on the fit of the experimental obtained raw data of fluorescence spectroscopy to a simple nonlinear category of a Boltzmann type sigmoidal function. Thermodynamical parameters of micellization $\Delta H_{m}^{0}$, $\Delta G_{m}^{0}$ and $\Delta S_{m}^{0}$ have been considered to study the effect of aqueous IL 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide concentration and temperature on aggregation behavior of surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate. FT-IR spectra have been studies to verify the structural changes arise in the aqueous IL and surfactant system.

Joule–Thomson expansion and quasinormal modes of regular non-minimal magnetic black hole

The Joule–Thomson effect and quasinormal modes (QNM) onto regular non-minimal magnetic charged black hole with a cosmological constant are being investigated. For this purpose, we extract some thermodynamical parameters such as pressure [Formula: see text] and mass [Formula: see text] in the presence of magnetic [Formula: see text] as well as electric [Formula: see text] charge. These parameters lead to inversion temperature [Formula: see text], pressure [Formula: see text] and corresponding isenthalpic curves. We introduce the tortoise coordinate and the Klein–Gordon wave equation which leads to the second-order ordinary Schrödinger equation. We find out the complex frequencies of QNMs through the massless scalar field perturbation which satisfy boundary conditions by using the first-order Wentzel–Kramers–Brillouin (WKB) technique.

The behavior of thermodynamic kinetic on Bi2Se3 compound by 131Xe ion implantation

Thermal parameters of the [Formula: see text] compound were investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) method. Four different phases were identified in the temperature range of [Formula: see text]C. Thermodynamical parameters were determined for each phase transition. [Formula: see text] samples were irradiated by 167 MeV energy [Formula: see text]Xe ions at the [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] ion/cm2 intensities. The DSC analyses of the irradiated samples were carried out and determined that the temperature and thermodynamical parameters of the phase transition change in the [Formula: see text] compound under the influence of swift heavy ions. The change mechanism of the thermodynamical parameters has been determined depending on the irradiation doses.
