Two overrun phenomena and their effects on fusion yield in the Coulomb explosion of heteronuclear clusters

Two overrun effects in the Coulomb explosion dynamics of heteronuclear clusters have been investigated theoretically by the use of a simplified electrostatic model. When the charge-to-mass ratio of light ions is higher than that of heavy ions, the light ions can overtake the heavy ions inside the cluster and acquire a higher kinetic energy. Further, if the charge density of the heavy ions is twice as high as that of the light ions, i.e. a proposed competitive parameter xi = rho BqB/rho AqA > 2, the inner light ions can overtake those light ions on the surface of the cluster and form a shock shell during the explosion, which might drive the intracluster collision and fusion of the light ions. Different regimes of nuclear fusion are discussed and the corresponding neutron yields are estimated. Our analysis indicates that the probability of intracluster fusion is quite low even if deuterated heteronuclear clusters such as (DI)(n) with large size and high competitive parameter are employed. However, heteronuclear clusters are still a better candidate compared with homonuclear clusters for enhancing the total intercluster fusion yield because both a higher energy region and a higher proportion of deuterons distributing in the energy region can be created in the deuterated heteronuclear clusters.

Impact of laser-accelerated micron-size projectile on dense plasma

The impact of a laser-accelerated micron-size projectile on a dense plasma target is studied using two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations. The projectile is first accelerated by an ultraintense laser. It then impinges on the dense plasma target and merges with the latter. Part of the kinetic energy of the laser-accelerated ions in the projectile is deposited in the fused target, and an extremely high concentration of plasma ions with a mean kinetic energy needed for fusion reaction is induced. The interaction is thus useful for laser-driven impact fusion and as a compact neutron source.

X 射线转换屏用Tb3+激活磷酸盐发光玻璃

Phosphate glasses 60P2O5-15CS2O- 15Al2O3-10BaO were made by high temperature melt-annealing method. The absorption spectra, excitation spectra and emission spectra of Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ and Ce3+-Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ co-doped phosphate glass 60P2O5-15CS2O- 15Al2O3-10BaO were studied. The experimental results indicate that, the doping of Ce3+ and Gd³⁺ in Tb³⁺ phosphate glass has a good effect on the 545 nm emission of Tb³⁺ at UV excitation. The Ce3+-Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ co-doped phosphate glass have a good x-ray luminescence at the radiation of x-ray with energy in 50-120 kev, and a high space resolution. The Ce3+-Gd³⁺-Tb³⁺ co-doped phosphate luminescence glass is a promising material for using in the digital radiography system in medical devices.

钛宝石中子辐照色心的研究

研究了中子辐照下钛宝石单晶体缺陷的形成及光学性能的变化。对温度梯度法(TGT)生长的钛宝石晶体进行中子辐照。中子能量为1．5MeV，剂量为4．32×10^18 neutrons／cm^2。辐照后194nm吸收峰强度增加,268nm吸收峰强度则降低。荧光谱检测中发现辐照使得420nm荧光峰强度明显降低，荧光峰位置也蓝移至414nm处。分析表明辐照使得钛宝石晶体内形成F^+缺陷，同时Ti^4+离子则转化成Ti^3+离子。辐照后的钛宝石在247C处有热释光TL出现，通过初始上升法计算出其陷阱深度为0．63eV。

蓝宝石中子辐照色心的研究

研究了中子辐照对蓝宝石(α-Al2O3)单晶体缺陷形成及光学性能的影响，对采用提拉法与温度梯度法生长的蓝宝石晶体进行中子辐照，通过对比辐照前后的吸收及荧光光谱变化，发现辐照使得蓝宝石晶体内形成F、F^+和F2^+色心缺陷，但不同方法生长的晶体样品中色心浓度差异明显。其中提拉法样品的F心浓度要高于温度梯度法样品，而温度梯度法样品中F^+色心浓度要高于提拉法样品。分析表明，这与两种方法生长的晶体中杂质含量差异有关。通过研究辐照后晶体的热致发光谱发现提拉法与温度梯度法生长的蓝宝石晶体分别在145℃与150℃有明
