Abstract(2030) PDF (178KB)(538)
Abstract:
Properties of two pairs of mirror nuclei 13N13C and 15N15O are investigated by using the nonlinear relativistic meanfield theory. It is found that all the calculated binding energies with two different parameter sets are very close to the experimental ones for both the ground states and the excited states. The calculations show that the first excited state (2s1/2) and the third excited state (1d5/2) in 13N are both unbound resonances with proton halo structure, whereas the third excited state (1d5/2) in 13C is weakly bound with a neutron skin. It is also predicted that there has a proton halo in the second excited state (2s1/2) of 15N as well as a neutron skin in the first excited state (2s1/2) of 15O.

2005, 22(1): 17-19. doi: 10.11804/NuclPhysRev.22.01.017
Abstract(2114) PDF (116KB)(609)
Abstract:
We have measured the reaction cross section of 17C on a 12C target at 79 MeV/u using the transmission method. Together with previous data at high energy, we deduced the density distribution of 17C by fitting the experimental data using the finiterange Glauber model.
The analysis shows that a simple harmonicoscillator (HO) density is not adequate to explain consistently the present experimental data and the one at high energy simultaneously. To get a better fit of both the data, the existence of a tail in the density distribution of 17C is proposed. Based on the assumption of a core plus a single neutron, it is found that the valence neutron of 17C is mostly in the dorbital. This is in agreement with the conclusion from the measured momentum distribution.

Abstract(1583) PDF (172KB)(611)
Abstract:
The defects and electronic momenta in graphite and nanocrystalline carbon have been studied by positron annihilation techniques. The results show that the concentration and open volume of defects in nanocrystalline carbon are higher/larger than that in graphite. Two kinds of microdefects were found in the nanocrystalline carbon: free volume (with a size of smaller than that of a monovacancy) and microvoids (with a size of about ten monovacancies). The anisotropic distribution of electronic momentum was found in single crystalline graphite, the momentum of free electron shows a maximum value in \[0001\] direction, and decreases with the increase of the angle deviation from \[0001\] direction and then reaches a minimum value in the direction perpendicular to \[0001\]. However, this phenomenon was not found in nanocrystalline carbon since the distribution of electronic momentum is isotropic.

Abstract(1776) PDF (155KB)(620)
Abstract:
The quadrupole interactions in the nanoand crystalline LaFeO3 perovskites have been investigated by TDPAC. The TDPAC probing nuclei 14057La14058Ce were produced through the nuclear reaction 139La(n.γ)140La at the CIAE heavy water experimental reactor. One electric quadrupole interaction was detected for each material, which is assigned to the La site. The quadrupole interaction frequencies of 687.4, 698.3 and 742.9 Mrad/s with a distribution coefficient of 0.014, 0.009 and 0.001 were observed at room temperature for the 20 and 40 nm nanoLaFeO3 and crystalline LaFeO3, respectively. The fitting yielded the EFG asymmetry parameter η=0, which indicates that the principal axes of the EFG is aligned with the crystallographic axes. The experimental results show that the structure of crystalline LaFeO3 is rhombohedral, the changing of the structure towards the orthorhombic structure takes place from the crystalline LaFeO3 to the nanoLaFeO3, and the smaller the nanograin size, the larger the change. The frequency distribution is caused by the perturbation of the neighboring atoms, and thus, the distribution coefficient increases with decreasing the nanograin size and the crystalline LaFeO3 arrives at its maximum.

Abstract:
Dependence of radiation damage in the modified 316L stainless steel has been investigated on irradiation temperature from room temperature to 802 ℃ at 21 and 33 dpa and on irradiation dose up to 100 displacemets/atom(dpa) at room temperature by the heavy ion irradiation simulation and positron annihilation lifetime techniques. A radiation swelling peak was observed at ~580 ℃ where the vacancy cluster contains 14 and 19 vacancies and has an average diameter of 0.68 and 0.82 nm, respectively for the 21 and 33 dpa irradiations. The size of the vacancy clusters increases with the increasing of irradiation dose, and the vacancy cluster produced at 100 dpa consists of 8 vacancies and reaches a size of 0.55 nm in diameter. The experimental results show that the radiation damage in this modified 316L stainless steel is more sensitive to irradiation temperature.

Abstract(1768) PDF (110KB)(594)
Abstract:
The metal hydride PdAgHx with a hydrogen concentration x ranging from 0 to 0.35 has been investigated by positron annihilation lifetime method in the temperature region between 77 K and 295 K. The measured lifetime spectra in metal hydride PdAgHx are characterized by two lifetimes τ1 and τ2. The short lifetime τ1 is independent of both hydrogen concentration and temperature, which is ascribed to the annihilation lifetime of free positrons. The long lifetime τ2 and its intensity I2 do not change with temperature, while τ2 increases and I2 decreases with increasing of hydrogen concentration. τ2 is attributed to the lifetime of positrons trapped at the hydrogen bubble. The increase of τ2 indicates the growth of the hydrogen bubble, and the decrease of I2 shows the reduction of the hydrogen bubble concentration. The experimental result shows a microscopic mechanism that the hydrogen bubble produced causes hydrogen embrittlement.

Abstract(1738) PDF (214KB)(617)
Abstract:
Based on the concept of relative detection efficiency, some experiments have been conducted to measure the isotopic abundance and the age of the plutonium material in a sealed container by a high-resolution γ-ray spectrometer. The PC/FRAM software analyzes the spectra. The study shows that the analysis precision of the isotopic abundance and the age will rise as the spectral measurement precision increases, and that If the spectral measurement precision is not enough, the analyzed results by the PC/FRAM software might be lower. Hence, the study suggests that a spectral peak is monitored to show lights on the spectral measurement precision during the process of spectrum acquirement.

Abstract(1886) PDF (109KB)(582)
Abstract:
The major, minor and trace elements in the bodies of ancient colored glazes which came from the site of Xiyue Temple and Lidipo kiln in Shangxi province, and were unearthed from the stratums of Song, Yuan, Ming, Early Qing and Late Qing dynasty were analyzed by instrumental neutron activation analysis (INAA). The results of multivariable statistical analyses show that the chemical compositions of the colored glaze bodies are steady from Song to Early Qing dynasty, but distinctly difference with that in Late Qing. Probably, the sources of fired material of ancient colored glaze from Song to Early Qing came from the site of Xiyue Temple. The chemical compositions of three pieces of colored glazes in Ming dynasty and that of Late Qing are similar to that of Lidipo kiln. From this, we could conclude that the sources of the materials of ancient coloured glazes of Xiyue Temple in Late Qing dynasty have been fired in Lidipo kiln.

Abstract(2161) PDF (154KB)(754)
Abstract:
400 sherds were collected from Hongzhou Kiln covering 8 periods from Eastern Han to Late Tang Dynasty/the Five Dynastied and their bodies were analysed by NAA. The results show that the elemental contents in different samples are quite distinct, even for those in the same period. It means no single element can be used as “fingerprint” to distinguish the period. The curves of the contents of Na, Rb, Ba and Fe varying with time are very similar, like “U” shape. As a colorant element, the content of Fe is consistent with the color of the body. The higher content of Fe, the more dark of the body. The outcome of principal component analysis (PCA) indicate that most of the sherds can be classified into 5 groups: (1) Eastern Han & Eastern Wu; (2) Western Jin, Eastern Jin and Southern Dynasties; (3) Sui; (4) Early Tang and Middle Tang; (5) Late Tang & Five Dynasties.

Abstract(1869) PDF (232KB)(629)
Abstract:
Helium trapping in the Ti films deposited by DC magnetron sputtering with a He/Ar mixture was studied. He atoms with a surprisingly high concentration (He/Ti atomic ratio is as high as 56%)incorporate evenly in deposited film. The trapped amount of He can be controlled by the helium partial amount. The introduction of the helium with no extra damage(or very low damage) can be realized by choosing suitable deposition conditions. It was also found that because of the formation of nanophase Ti film a relative high He flux for bubble formation is needed and the amount of the retain He in sputtering Ti films is much higher than that in the coarsegrain Ti films. The nanophase Ti film can accommodate larger concentration of trapped sites to He, which results in a high density and small size of the He bubbles. With the increasing He irradiation flux, the grain size of Ti film decreases and the lattice spacing and width of the X ray diffraction peak increase due to the He introduction, and the film tends to amorphous phase.
