Abstract: This paper has been prepared by using experimental and simulated data due to a large and a small Filippov type plasma focus devices. In the first part of the paper, the plasma-focusing phenomenon is introduced and the parameters of the devices are presented. Then the results of empirical studies of the pinch-time dependence to the gas pressure are provided. In the next part, the theoretical basis of the ML-model is reviewed and the results of applying this model to simulate the two devices are presented. Both simulated and experimental results showed that in the larger device, the pinch time is clearly more sensitive to the pressure variations. The study also showed that the model predictions for larger device are more accurate than the predictions for the smaller device.

A significant feature of alloys is the surfaces hardness that is always accompanied by challenges when it’s measured by common mechanical techniques. In this investigation, we used Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS) as a replacement method for common mechanical techniques to measure the surfaces hardness of different alloys. After recording the spectrum of alloy samples in order to identify the surface hardness of analyzed sample, K-Nearest Neighbors method (KNN) was used and obtained results showed that the LIBS-KNN method can separate and identify the surfaces hardness of samples with precision of 93.3%. In addition, in order to identify the percentage of constituent elements of alloys and their hardness, calibration approach was investigated that showed there is an appropriate linear relation between recorded emission lines from the LIB spectra of sample alloys and the percentage of their constituent elements and also their Vickers hardness numbers. Therefore, According to exclusive advantages of LIBS technique i.e. high speed analysis, non-destructive analysis and being portable, some of available difficulties in conventional mechanical techniques can be removed.

The structural properties and microwave absorption capability of the iron nanoparticles and iron-carbon core-shell nanoparticles have been studied, in the present paper. The investigated nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal route and by reduction of hematite nanoparticles during annealing in argon-hydrogen atmosphere. Hematite-iron phase transformation during the reduction process has been studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD). XRD patterns showed that in iron nanoparticles, hematite-iron phase transformation was completed after 30 min annealing whereas about iron-carbon nanoparticles, the phase transformation completion occurred after 65 min, and before 65 min annealing, wustite (FeO) phase was still present in XRD patterns. M-H loops and relative complex permittivity (ε) and permeability (µ) of the iron nanoparticles and iron-carbon nanocapsules were investigated too. According to the ε and µ spectra in 1-18 GHz, the carbon shell can affect microwave properties of the iron nanoparticles. Carbon shell can reduce microwave permeability and permittivity of the composites containing iron nanoparticles.

The present paper introduces the Bayesian spectral analysis as a powerful and efficient method for spectral analysis of photometric time series. For this purpose, Bayesian spectral analysis has programmed in Matlab software for XZ Dra photometric time series which is non-uniform with large gaps and the power spectrum of this analysis has compared with the power spectrum which obtained from the Period04 software, which designed for statistical analysis of astronomical time series and used of artificial data for unify the time series. Although in the power spectrum of this software, the main spectral peak which represent the main frequency of XZ Dra variable star oscillations in the f = 2.09864 (day -1) is well known but false spectral peaks are also seen. Also, in this software it’s not clear how to generate the synthetic data. These false peaks have been removed in the power spectrum which obtained from the Bayesian analysis; also this spectral peak which is around the desired frequency has a shorter width and is more accurate. It should be noted that in Bayesian spectral analysis, it’s not require to unify the time series for obtaining a desired power spectrum. Moreover, the researcher also becomes aware of the exact calculation process.

In this paper, we investigate the Casimir nano system composed of two quadrisected dielectric disks separated by a thin gap. Initially the two disks have the same surface dielectric distributions. We use scatting approach in the weak coupling limit and show that the top plate experiences a torque if it rotates about its axes by an angle. Consequently, we will be able to calculate.
Quite interesting, such a nanomachine may be used to examine the dielectric dependence of the Casimir torque. Our small system can be used to measure small torques. We assume that the top disk is mounted on an axle and part of the rotational friction in the system comes from the axial friction and an external load is mounted on it. For such a system with specified parameters, we can estimate inertia and axial friction. Therefor we can neglect the inertia term and use the over damped regime to describe the dynamics of our system. We show that our small system can rectify a periodic square-wave angular velocity and we obtain the average angular velocity of the top plate.

In this study, encapsulated ZnO nanorods with different amount of chromium (Cr) dopant (0-4.5 at.%) were prepared with hydrothermal method, and their sensitivities as gas sensors against ethanol vapor were investigated. Morphologies of samples were explored by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) which showed that encapsulation process increased the diameter of ZnO nanorods. Existence of Cr in ZnO nanorods structures was confirmed by Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, the ZnO:Cr nanorods had wurtzite crystal structure, and adding Cr did not alter the crystal structure of ZnO. Electrical measurements revealed that current levels of samples were decreased by adding Cr, while the current level of the sample with 4.5 at.% was increased. This reduction could be attributed to the presence of Cr3+ ions, which led to decrease of charge carriers. Besides, due to the catalytic properties of Cr and its lower ionization energy than Zn, it was observed that Cr dopant improved the detection sensitivity of samples, and decreased the optimum operating temperature of samples. Among all samples, the most sensitivity (14) was obtained based on the sample with 1.5 at.% of Cr for 500 ppm ethanol vapor at the optimum temperature (250 ). In fact, by encapsulating the samples, they became rougher, so the appropriate places to absorb and decompose of gas molecules are increased.

In this research, we have studied the photonic band structure, optical properties and thermal emission spectrum of 2D Silicon photonic crystal with hexagonal structure. The band structure, band gap map and the gap size versus radius have been calculated by plane wave expansion method. The maximum band gap size of TE (TM) polarization and the complete gap size are 51% (20%) and 17% at air hole radius r=0.43a (0.50a) and r=0.48a, respectively. The optical properies have been calculated by FDTD methd in the range of 1 to 10 . The thermal emission spectrum has been obtained from absorption by Kirchhoff’s law. The obtaine results show that by engineering the band structure, the thermal emission spectrum of 2D Silicon photonic crystal can be controlled in a manner that can be used in thermophotovoltaic systems.

Motivated by recent experiments that detects Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction in , we study the effects of DM interaction on magnetic orders of J1-J2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model. First, we find the classical phase diagram of the model using Luttinger-Tisza approximation. In this approximation, the classical phase diagram has two phases. For , the model has canted Neel and DM interaction cants the spins of one on the subluttices. The ground state of model is classically degenerate for , including infinit numbers of vorticity vectors that are able to minimize the model. This phase is important because of the probability of the existence of quantum spin liquid in this region. To investigate the effect of quantum fluctuation on the stability of the classical phase diagram, linear spin wave theory of Holstein-Primakoff is used. The results show that in the classical degeneracy regime, the quantum fluctuations for cause spiral order in this region. The ground state of model remains disorder for, and this region is a good place for finding quantum spin liquid

In a microlensing event, at caustic crossing, flux of a spot can be magnified several times with respect of the source star. This magnification contrast provide a unique opportunity to measure the magnetic field over a source star. In this work we investigate possibility of magnetic field detection through the Zeeman effect when a source crosses a caustic line. Using Fourier analysis, one can separate other broadening agents from actual Zeeman broadening. At next stage we use microlensing formalism to measure the magnification contrast of spot and source and finally using two reliable strategy, we find the delectability of magnetic field as a function of maximum magnification for spots with different sizes. The resolution and the signal to noise in each strategy determine which magnetic fields are detectable.

The exclusive production of charged pions, are reported in the proton-proton collisions, where the π+π- pair is emitted at the central rapidity, y, and the scattered protons stay intact (p) without detection. This measurement is performed with the CMS detector at the LHC, using a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 450 μb-1 collected at a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV. The dipion cross section, measured for single-pion transverse momentum pT > 0.2 GeV/c and rapidity |y| < 2, is 20.5 ± 0.3 (stat) ± 3.1 (syst) ± 0.8 (lumi) μb. The differential cross sections as a function of π+π- invariant mass, is compared to phenomenological predictions.

We have studied the Nilsson potential energies at different deformation parameters using a code based on the perturbative treatment. Special attention is given to the projection of a proton state at different deformations on the asymptotic basis functions. Our calculations show that the spin-orbit and the orbital angular momentum terms couple different asymptotic eigenstates, Nilsson Hamiltonian being hence not diagonal in these basis functions. Therefore, at least at deformations 0.4, the asymptotic quantum numbers are not good quantum numbers.

In this paper, SiO2 thin film is produced by two methods: at the first method, SiO2 is evaporated by the electron gun and oxygen gas is injected to compensate for oxygen loss due to dissociation. At the second method, silicon monoxide is evaporated by thermal evaporation and during the evaporation time, substrate is bombarded by the ion oxygen that produced by an ion source. The refraction index, the extinction coefficient and the thickness layer are calculated by numerical method of the transmittance and reflectance equations. By the shift in the spectral transmittance, amount of non uniformity is calculated. Results show that if the quantity of the current and the ion energy are selected properly, SiO2 film will not have absorption. Moreover, SiO2 film produced by the second method is more uniform than that of by the first method

In the present work, KTP crystals have been grown by spontaneous nucleation technique in flux medium using K6P < sub>4O13 flux. 0.4-1 °C/h cooling rates were applied in the spontaneous nucleation process. The presence and amount of impurities has been determined by using XRF. The optical transmission spectra of impure KTP crystals in the UV–visible region are discussed. The transmission cut-off is clearly shown at the optical absorption edge, as well as the rapidly reduced absorption with increasing wavelength. It is shown that the presence of impurity shifts the absorption edge of KTP towards lower energy region. The wavelength dependence of absorption coefficient is determined in the UV–visible range, and the characteristics of the optical absorption edge are discussed. Results reveal that the absorption edge and the type of optical charge carrier transition can be attributed to indirect transition for these crystals. It is shown that presence of impurity decreases the indirect band gap (Eg) of KTP crystals, causing the indirect transition absorption edge to move towards lower energy.

A novel and rather simple method is presented to describe the physics of space-charge region in a planar diode. The method deals with the issue in the time domain and as a consequence transient time behavior can be achieved. Potential distributions and currents obtained using this technique, supposing zero initial velocity for electrons, reveal absolute agreement with Child's results. Moreover, applying the method for non-zero uniform initial velocity for electrons, gives results which are in good agreement with previous works

The impact parameter formalism of the single-center close-coupling, first-, and second-order Born approximations have been applied to investigate direct excitations of Helium He+(2s) and Lithium Li++(2s) ions by colliding with protons or antiprotons. The total 3s, 3p, and 3d scaled excitation cross sections are calculated in the scaled impact energy region (2 to 1000 keV). The present work aims to explore the sensitivity of the cross sections to the different electronic transition mechanisms of the considered approaches as well as the charge of each of the projectile and the target nucleus. Also, the calculated cross sections are compared with those obtained by previous theoretical calculations.

One of the most important requirements for industrial pipelines is the leakage detection. In this paper, detection of leak and determination of its amount using radioactive tracer injection method has been simulated by Monte Carlo MCNP code. The detector array included two NaI (Tl) detectors which were located before and after the considered position, measure emitted gamma from radioactive tracer. After calibration of radiation detectors, the amount of leakage can be calculated based on the count difference of detectors. Also, the effect of material and thickness and diameter of pipe, crystal dimension, types of fluid, activity of tracer and its type (24Na, 82Br, 131I, 99mTc, 113mIn) as well as have been investigated on the detectable amount of leakage. According to the results, for example, leakage more than 0.007% in volume of the inlet fluid for iron pipe with outer diameter 4 inch and thickness of 0.5 cm, Petrol as fluid inside pipe, 3 3 inch detector and 24Na with activity of 100 mCi can be detected by this presented method.
