等离子体射流产生与特性的实验研究

本文报道热等离子体射流产生及射流特性的实验研究结果.采用同一个直流等离子体发生器,工作气体流量小时产生出层流等离子体长射流,射流长度随气体流量或弧电流的增加而明显增加;工作气体流量大时则产生出湍流等离子体短射流,此时射流长度几乎与工作气体流量或弧电流无关;在层流与湍流等离子体射流工况之间,存在一个流动状况不稳定的过渡区,此时等离子体射流的平均长度随气流量的加大而减小,但随弧电流的加大而明显加大.层流等离子体长射流有相当好的刚性.

芍药属两物种染色体结构变异杂合性研究

芍药属由大约35个灌木和多年生草本种组成，分为三个组：牡丹组(Sect. Moutan)、北美芍药组(Sect. Onaepia)和芍药组(Sect. Paeonia)。四川牡丹(Paeonia decomposita Handel-Mazzetti)和块根芍药(P. intermedia Meyer)分别隶属于牡丹组和芍药组。在该属的所有种中，染色体基数均为 x = 5，最短的五号染色体是端部着丝粒染色体，很容易辨认。 本论文研究了块根芍药三个居群22个个体和四川牡丹两个居群13个个体的减数分裂。减数分裂异常广泛发生，以至于发现所有被研究的个体都有数量不等的桥、断片和单价体。结果表明在中期I，块根芍药第一个居群平均每个小孢子母细胞有2.17个棒状二价体和2.7个环形二价体，第二个居群平均每个细胞有2.04个棒状二价体和2.86个环形二价体，第三个居群平均每个细胞有2.21个棒状二价体和2.71个环形二价体。而在四川牡丹中，第一个居群平均每个小孢子母细胞有2.09个棒状二价体和2.81个环形二价体，第二个居群平均每个细胞有1.85个棒状二价体和3.08个环形二价体。 块根芍药第一个居群的平均减数分裂染色体构型是2n = 10 = 0.25 I + 4.87 II，第二个居群是2n = 10 = 0.20 I + 4.90 II，第三个居群是2n = 10 = 0.17 I + 4.92 II，在该种的平均构型是2n = 10 = 0.21 I + 4.89 II。四川牡丹第一个居群的平均减数分裂染色体构型是2n = 10 = 0.21 I + 4.90 II，第二个居群是2n = 10 = 0.14 I + 4.93 II，在该种的平均构型是2n = 10 = 0.20 I + 4.90 II。在块根芍药中，不同个体的配对系数变化范围在69.5%和81.07%之间，在四川牡丹中在72.97%和81.37%之间。 在后期I和末期I，出现了染色体桥、断片、落后染色体、不等分离等异常现象。最明显的减数分裂异常是后期I桥/断片。尽管在不同的居群中桥/断片异常出现的频率有所变化(块根芍药居群一是26.03%，居群二是11.67%，居群三是13.39%;四川牡丹居群一是7.59%，居群二是9%)，但是这种异常出现在所有个体中(块根芍药平均为18.67%，四川牡丹平均为7.69%)。结果表明，所有的个体都是染色体臂内倒位结构杂合体，广泛存在于野生自然居群中，可能存在某些选择优势。而且，桥的出现频率和断片的大小在个体之间是变化的，这因此表明在这两个种中存在不同的倒位。然而，这两个种在野生居群中是如何维持染色体结构杂合的，其维持机制还有待于进一步阐明，还需要更进一步的证据。 该研究还揭示了块根芍药和四川牡丹这两个种具有共同的第五号染色体减数分裂异常：与长臂相比，短臂在遗传距离和物理距离之间存在巨大的背离。短臂的遗传距离，通过交叉频率计算出来，约是长臂的三十分之一（块根芍药）。然而，物理距离用臂的比率表示，大约是长臂的三分之一，物理距离是遗传距离的十倍。 在四川牡丹红心桥居群和其它居群之间，臂比存在微小的差异，而且在芍药属不同的种内也发现了存在差异。在四川牡丹中，环形二价体(两个臂形成交叉)和棒状二价体(仅一个臂形成交叉)的比率是1.94 : 98.06，而在块根芍药中是3.42 : 96.58。在这两个种中，棒状二价体大大多于环形二价体。在第五号染色体的短臂上可能存在某些“搭车效应”，这表明第五号染色体的短臂上存在高度永久杂合，导致短臂高度保守、极为稳定。这与芍药属古老的分布格局、进化历史长可能存在某些联系。四川牡丹第五号染色体的后期I倒位桥出现频率非常低，仅为0.51 - 3.47%，平均为1.43%。而且断片长度是变化的，其变化范围在1.7 - 10.8 µm之间。

非对称核物质的化学不稳定性与力学不稳定性

基于扩展的Skyrme有效相互作用 ,在Hartree Fock近似下对非对称核物质的化学不稳定性与力学不稳定性进行了研究 ,并与简单的三参数势 ,即所谓的软势与硬势的计算结果进行了比较 .结果发现两种模型给出的非对称核物质化学不稳定性与力学不稳定性之间的关系是完全不同的 .通过研究化学不稳定性在临界温度附近的行为发现 ,对软势与硬势 ,化学不稳定性可能出现在温度高于临界温度的气化 (全爆炸 )机制中 .而对于SKM势参数 ,化学不稳定性不会出现在温度高于临界温度的气化 (全爆炸 )机制中 .这种差别也反映在压强 密度平面上力学不稳定区与化学不稳定区的位置关系上 .进一步的计算表明 ,这种差别是由于两种模型给出的单粒子势的密度依赖形式的不同而导致的 ,这必将体现在重离子碰撞的现象中 ,从而可以作为提取核物质状态方程密度依赖形式的探针

像元尺度上不确定性对空间景观直观模型模拟的影响

L ANDIS模型是模拟自然和人为干扰下森林景观变化的空间直观景观模型。模型把景观概念化为由相同大小的像元或样地组成的格网。在每一个像元上 ,模型要求输入物种和年龄组信息。但是 ,由于研究区一般由成千上百万个像元构成 ,不可能通过实际调查获取每一个像元上的物种和年龄组信息。因此 ,采用了一种基于小班的随机赋值法从森林调查数据中获取每一个像元的物种和年龄组信息。该方法是一种基于概率的方法 ,会在 L ANDIS模型模拟的物种和年龄组信息的输入中引入不确定性。为了评价由基于小班的随机赋值法所引入像元尺度上的不确定性对模型模拟结果的影响 ,用蒙特卡罗模拟法进行不确定性分析。对 L ANDIS模型模拟的每一个物种 ,用众数年龄组发生频率来定量化单个像元上年龄组信息的不确定性 ,用所有像元上的众数年龄组平均发生频率来定量化年龄组信息在像元尺度上总的不确定性。平均发生频率越高 ,不确定性越低。为了评价基于小班的随机赋值法对景观尺度上模型模拟结果的影响 ,计算了每一个物种在整个研究区内的面积百分比和聚集度指数。变异系数越大 ,不确定性越高。对所有物种 ,年龄组信息不确定性在模型模拟的初期是比较低的 (平均发生频率大于 10 )。种子传播、建群、死亡和火干扰使模型结果的不确定

Microstructures and mechanical properties of as-cast Mg-5Y-3Nd-Zr-xGd (x=0, 2 and 4 wt.%) alloys

Mg-5Y-3Nd-0.6Zr-xGd (x = 0, 2 and 4 wt.%) alloys were prepared by metal mould casting technique, the structures and mechanical properties were investigated. The alloys were mainly composed of alpha-Mg solid solution and beta-phase. With increasing Gd content, Mg5RE phase increased and the grain was refined. The Mg-5Y-3Nd-2Gd-0.6Zr alloy exhibited highest ultimate tensile strength and Mg-5Y-3Nd-0.6Zr alloy showed highest yield strength at room temperature. With increasing amount of Gd, the thermal resistance was improved. The Mg-5Y-3Nd-4Gd-0.6Zr alloy exhibited highest UTS and YS at 250 degrees C, they were about 1.27 times higher than those of Gd-free alloy, which was mainly attributed to the increase of the beta-phase and Mg5RE strengthening phase.

Crystallographic and electrochemical characteristics of Ti45Zr35Ni13Pd7 melt-spun alloys

Ti45Zr35Ni13Pd7 alloys are prepared by melt spinning at different cooling rates (v). The phase structure and electrochemical hydrogen storage performance are investigated. When U is 10 m/s, the alloy consists of icosahedral quasicrystalline phase (I-phase), C14 Laves phase and a little amorphous phase. When v increases to 20 or 30 m/s, a mixed structure of I-phase and amorphous phase is formed. Maximum discharge capacity of alloy electrode decreases from 156 mAh/g (v = 10 m/s) to 139 mAh/g (v = 30 m/s) with increasing v. High-rate discharge ability at the discharge current density of 240 mA/g decreases monotonically from 61.2% (v = 10 m/s) to 56.8% (v = 30 m/s).

Cationic cyclization of styrene-butadiene rubber

Controlled cyclization of styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR) was achieved with the aid of cationic catalyst system based on diethylaluminium chloride (AIEt(2)Cl) and benzyl chloride (C6H5CH2Cl) and by working in xylene solution at high temperature (T > 100 degreesC). The main parameters of the cyclization process were investigated. Elastomers with low intrinsic viscosity, ready solubility, free gel were obtained. The products were characterized with IR H-1-NMR, DSC, GPC. The polycyclic structure was determined. (C) 2001 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.

Potential P limitation leads to excess N in the pearl river estuarine coastal plume

There is excess nitrate (NO3) in the Pearl River coastal plume in the southern waters of Hong Kong in summer. We hypothesize that phosphorus (P) limitation controls the utilization of excess NO3 due to the high N:P ratio in the Pearl River. To test this hypothesis, we conducted two 1-day cruises on July 13 and 19, 2000 to examine the response of the phytoplankton to P additions with respect to changes in biomass, uptake of nutrients and nutrient uptake ratios using a batch incubation of natural water samples collected from the Pearl River estuary and adjacent coastal waters. At a station (E1, salinity =5) in the Pearl River estuary, the N/P ratio at the surface was 46:1, (64 muM DIN: 1.3 muM PO4) and decreased to 24:1 (12 muM DIN: 0.5 muM PO4) downstream at a station (Stn 26, salinity =26) in the coastal plume south of Hong Kong. Without a P addition, NO3 in the water samples collected at E1 could not be depleted during a 9 day incubation (similar to20 muM NO3 remaining). With a P addition, NO3 disappeared completely on day 6 with the depletion of the added PO4 (2-3 muM). This was also true for a station, E4 (salinity= 15) further downstream, but within the estuary. At Stn 26, in the coastal plume south of Hong Kong, NO3 (similar to11.5 muM) was eventually depleted without the addition of PO4, but it took 8 days instead of 5 days for Stn E4. The uptake ratio of dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) to PO4, without a P addition was 51:1, 43:1 and 46:1 for Stns E1, E4 and 26, respectively. With a P addition, the DIN/PO4 uptake ratio decreased to 20:1, 14:1 and 12:1, respectively, for the 3 stations. These results clearly indicate potential P limitation to utilization of NO3 in the Pearl River estuary, resulting in excess NO3 in waters of the coastal plume downstream of the estuary, some of which would eventually be transported offshore. High uptake ratios of N:P without a P addition (43N:1P) suggest that phytoplankton have a nitrogen uptake capacity in excess of the Redfield ratio of 16N: 1P by 2.5-3 times. The value of 2.5-3 times was likely a maximum that should have contained a contribution of P released from desorption of P from sediments or from regeneration by zooplankton grazing and bacterial activity during the incubation of natural water samples. Without a P addition, however, phytoplankton biomass did not increase. This means that P turnover rates or regeneration may allow phytoplankton to take up additional N in excess of the Redfield ratio and store it, but without increasing the algal biomass. Therefore, high ambient N:P ratios in excess of the Redfield ratio do indicate potential P limitation to phytoplankton biomass in this estuarine coastal ecosystem. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd.
