Theories of Low Energy Nuclear Transmutations
Theories of Low Energy Nuclear Transmutations Y. N. Srivastava Department of Physics & INFN, University of Perugia, Perugia, IT A. Widom and J. Swain Physics Department, Northeastern University, Boston MA, USA Employing concrete examples from nuclear physics it is shown that low energy nuclear reactions can and have been induced by all of the four fundamental interactions (i) (stellar) gravitational, (ii) strong, (iii) electromagnetic and (iv) weak. Differences are highlighted through the great diversity in the rates and similarity through the nature of the nuclear reactions initiated by each. PACS numbers: 26.65.+t, 96.60.Jw, 25.85.Ec, 29.25.Dz,24.75.+i, 25.85.-w, 28.41.Ak,24.75.+i I. INTRODUCTION We show below through physical examples that low energy nuclear reactions have been induced by all of the four fundamental interactions: gravitational, strong, electromagnetic and weak. Gravity: Gravitational interactions are well known to cause nuclear reactions and fusion in a star. Were it not for nuclear activity, a star would be dynamically unstable and undergo gravitational collapse[1, 2]. In fact, standard theory predicts the collapse of a star when the nuclear fuel is exhausted as the star can no longer counteract the inward compression due to gravitation. Nuclear: A laboratory example of low energy strong interaction fusion is provided by a fast discharge in fine deuterated polymer fibers. In such fibers, deuterons are accelerated to speeds high enough to overcome the barrier due to mutual Coulomb repulsion, giving rise to the production of 2:5 MeV neutrons through low energy reactions such as d + d ! n + 3He: (1) In the same set of experiments[3], also non deuterated fibers exhibit an \anomalous" production of neutrons, at a rate over 6 orders of magnitude larger than that expected through natural contamination of deuterons in a normal material. -

The success of KTP usage in the visible and infrared (IR) ranges drives interest in applying it at longer wavelengths, that is, in the terahertz (THz) range. We use THz optical properties of KTP crystals measured by terahertz time-domain spectrometer (THz-TDS) and refractive index approximated in the form of Sellmeier equations to investigate KTP application possibilities for IR-to-THz and THz-to-THz wave conversion. As a result, phase matching for s − f ! f and s − f ! s types of difference frequency generation (DFG) of Ti:Sapphire laser (at the wavelengths of 0.65, 0.8 and 1.1 µm) is found possible, as well as second harmonic generation (SHG) of THz waves by f + s ! f type of interaction in the XZ principle plane of the crystal. -

Correlations between Crystal Structure and Elastic Properties of Piezoelectric Crystals: Tourmalines and Relaxor Ferroelectrics of the type CaxBa1-xNb2O6 and Ce:CaxBa1-xNb2O6 DISSERTATION zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines “Doktor der Naturwissenschaften” an der Fakultät für Geowissenschaften der Ruhr-Universität Bochum Germany von Chandra Shekhar Pandey aus Bareilly (India) Bochum, 2010 1. Gutachter Prof. Dr. Jürgen Schreuer 2. Gutachter Prof. Dr. Ladislav Bohatý Datum der Vorlage 20.10.2010 Datum der Disputation 17.12.2010 “If we knew what we were doing, it wouldn't be research” Albert Einstein This thesis is dedicated to My Love Arti & My sweet ‘n’ cute loving daughter Aditi Abstract In this thesis the elastic properties of two distinct groups of piezoelectric crystals are presented: one is natural tourmaline occurring with a vast variability in chemical compositions with a stable phase over a wide temperature range and hence allowing to examine the influence of chemical composition on its physical properties; while the other is synthetically grown relaxor ferroelectric calcium barium niobate (CBN) exhibiting a ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition and thus invoking the interest to investigate the variation of elastic properties in both phases as well as in the vicinity of the phase transition. To this end the non-destructive innovative method of resonant ultrasound spectroscopy (RUS) was employed. The full sets of elastic, piezoelectric, dielectric constants and coefficients of thermal expansion of five natural single crystal tourmalines of gem quality have been determined between 100 K and 903 K. The main influence of Li and Fe on elastic, piezoelectric and dielectric properties of tourmalines was studied. -

The different industrial uses of lithium are discussed in this review along with a compilation of the locations of the main geological sources of lithium. An emphasis is placed on lithium’s use in lithium ion batteries and their use in the electric vehicle industry. The electric vehicle market is driving new demand for lithium resources. The expected scale-up in this sector will put pressure on current lithium supplies. The European Union has a burgeoning demand for lithium and is the second largest consumer of lithium resources. Currently, only 1–2% of worldwide lithium is produced in the European Union (Portugal). There are several lithium mineralisations scattered across Europe, the majority of which are currently undergoing mining feasibility studies. The increasing cost of lithium is driving a new global mining boom and should see many of Europe’s mineralisation’s becoming economic. The information given in this paper is a source of contextual information that can be used to support the European Union’s drive towards a low carbon economy and to develop the field of research. -

Using Static Charge on Pyroelectric Crystals to Produce Self–Focusing Electron and Ion Beams and Transport Through Tubes
1 Using Static Charge on Pyroelectric Crystals to Produce Self–Focusing Electron and Ion Beams and Transport Through Tubes James D. Brownridge1 and Stephen M. Shafroth2 1Department of Physics, Applied Physics and Astronomy State University of New York at Binghamton Binghamton, New York 13902-6000, USA e-mail: [email protected] 2Department of Physics and Astronomy Department of Physics, Applied Physics and Astronomy University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Chapel Hill, North Carolina 27599-3255, USA e-mail: [email protected] Abstract- Static charge in and on the surface of pyroelectric crystals of LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 in a dilute gas has been shown to ionize gas molecules via electron tunneling. The released electrons and positive ions are focused and accelerated according to the sign of the static uncompensated charge. The uncompensated charge is produced when the temperature of the crystal is changed from any initial temperature between about 500K and about 15K. It may be either polarization charge that is inside the crystal surface or compensation charge that is on the surface. The direction of temperature change and the polarity of the base of the crystal determine whether electrons or positive ions are accelerated toward or away from the crystal. The ionization, focusing and acceleration may continue for more than 15 days following a single change in temperature from ~20 oC to ~160 oC to ~20 oC. I. INTRODUCTION Twenty-three centuries ago the Greek philosopher, Theophrastus, described what is now call the "pryoelectric effect". He described how the mineral tourmaline had the power to attract objects such as straw, wood, copper and iron [1]. -

CLARK. Received April 9, 1919. The only strictly chemical method for the preparation of free fluorine which has shown satisfactory possibilities up to the present time is the decomposition of the double salt tripotassium lead hydrogen octafluoride 3KF.HF.PbF4, by heat. This compound was prepared in pure con- dition and studied for the first time by Brauner,2 who showed that the molecule of hydrogen fluoride could be completely removed at tem- peratures below 250', and that fluorine is evolved above 250'. In recent years doubts have been expressed by some chemists that such a discovery was really in accordance with the facts. By using this method, however, it has been found possible in the researches to be described 1 Published by permission of the Director of the Chemical Warfare Service. The general problem of the preparation and use of tripotassium hydrogen lead octafluoride was suggested by Captain A. B. Ray, and the investigations begun under his supervision and with the assistance of Messrs. I. M. Colbeth and J. H. Card, at the American University Experiment Station, Washington, D. C. The intensive solubility measurements, and all of the work on disodium lead hexafluoride were subsequently carried on by the author independently. J. Chenz. Soc., 65, 393 (1894). I478 GEORGE I,. -

Pd and Cu-mediated domino reactions are powerful tools for the synthesis of heterocycles. In this chapter we have compiled the most relevant examples of such transformations for the synthesis of sulfur- containing heterocycles. These sequences have been organized by type of heterocycle formed and the nature of the substrates (with or without a sulfur atom). Contents 1. Introduction 2. Synthesis of heterocycles incorporating only sulfur heteroatom 2.1. From sulfur-containing starting material 2.2. From sulfur-free starting material 3. Synthesis of heterocycles incorporating one sulfur and at least another heteroatom 3.1. N,S-Heterocycles 3.1.1.

Conclusion Acknowledgements References 1. Introduction The impact of organosulfur compounds in pharmaceutical industry is significant, several sulfur- containing drugs being among the most prescribed and sold at present in the world.1 Some of them contain in their structure a sulfur heterocycle (Figure 1). Considering the continual need for the development of medicinal therapies, new S-heterocyclic compounds could lead to forthcoming pharmaceuticals. Figure 1. Structures of drugs containing a sulfur-heterocycle. 255 As a consequence, the search for new syntheses to provide original compounds of these types represents a topical subject.
