The experimental results revealed that the Fe/Mo multilayers in our experimental conditions behaved magnetoresistance effect with a sharp peak on magnetoresistance (MR) ratio curve, and magnetoresistance is easily saturated at low applied magnetic fields. For [Fe(1.5nm)/Mo(1.0nm)]4,2 multilayers, MR ratio could arrive to 0.1%. The antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling could be observed in some films at room temperature. The strength of the antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling J in the films is low because of the low saturation field Hs. The relationship between magnetic properties and micro structure was also discussed in this paper.展开更多

文摘The Fe/Mo multilayers were prepared by electron beam evaporation, the micro structure and magnetic properties of the multilayers were studied by X-ray diffraction, vibrating-sample magnetometer (VSM) et al. The experimental results revealed that the Fe/Mo multilayers in our experimental conditions behaved magnetoresistance effect with a sharp peak on magnetoresistance (MR) ratio curve, and magnetoresistance is easily saturated at low applied magnetic fields. For [Fe(1.5nm)/Mo(1.0nm)]4,2 multilayers, MR ratio could arrive to 0.1%. The antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling could be observed in some films at room temperature. The strength of the antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling J in the films is low because of the low saturation field Hs. The relationship between magnetic properties and micro structure was also discussed in this paper.

文摘Using inclusive decays of J/ψ aprecise determination of the number of J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector was performed.For the two data sets taken in 2009 and 2012,the numbers of J/ψ events were recalculated to be(224.0±1.3)×10^(6) and(1088.5±4.4)×10^(6),respectively;these numbers are in good agreement with the previous measurements. For the J/ψ sample taken in 2017-2019,the number of events was determined to be(8774.0±39.4)×10^(6).The total number of J/ψ events collected with the BESIII detector was determined to be(10087±44)×10^(6),where the uncertainty is dominated by systematic effects,and the statistical uncertainty is negligible.
文摘Purpose In order to make BEPC-II to run at a higher energy,the Institute of High Energy Physics undertook an upgrading project.One of the important factors limiting the energy boost is the power and performance of the dipole magnet power supplies;therefore,these four magnet power supplies are developed for the BEPC-II upgrading.Methods The power supplies adopt topologies of thyristor rectifiers to realize a high-power output.In the control unit of each power supply,a digital current closed loop is adopted,and the key components in the feedback loop are thermostatically controlled.In order to improve the performances of the power supplies,analog voltage regulators are added to the inner control loops.Results These four power supplies have been tested and have already been officially used in BEPC-II,and their powers have reached the requirements of the upgrading.The test results of the current stability are described and shown in this paper,which testifies that the stabilities meet the design parameters.Conclusions A digital control is applied to each SCR rectifier control.The performances of the power supplies are improved by the combination of digital current control loops and the analog voltage control loops,which makes the performances of the dipole magnet power supplies meet the requirements of the upgrading project.

基金sponsored by the National Natural Science Foundation of China(No.11402061)The work described in this paper was also partially supported by a grant from the Research Grants Council of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region,China,for the project“A study on electric and magnetic effects associated with an internal fire whirl in a vertical shaft”(Project No.PolyU 15206215)with account number B-Q47D.
文摘Numerical studies on internal fire whirls(IFW)generated in a vertical shaft model with a single corner gap were reported in this paper.The generation of IFW,burning rate of fuel and temperature were studied experimentally first.Numerical simulations on medium-scale IFW were carried out using a fully-coupled large eddy simulation incorporating subgrid scale turbulence and a fire source with heat release rates compiled from experimental results.Typical transient flame shape was studied and then simulated numerically by using temperature.The dynamic phenomena of generation and development of IFW were simulated and then compared with experimental results.The predicted results were validated by comparing with experimental data,which demonstrated that an IFW can be simulated by Computational Fluid Dynamics.Numerical results for flame surface,temperature,and flame length agreed well with the experimental results.The IFW flame region and intermittent region were longer than those for an ordinary pool fire.The modified empirical formula for centerline temperature was derived.Variations of vertical and tangential velocity in axial and radial directions were also shown.The vortex core radius was found to be determined by the fuel bed size.Velocity field was not measured extensively due to resources limitation.Comparing measured temperature distribution with predictions is acceptable because temperature is related to the heat release rate,air flow and pressure gradient.
文摘This paper investigates the contribution of multi-temporal enhanced vegetation index(EVI)data to the improvement of object-based classification accuracy using multi-spectral moderate resolution imaging spectral-radiometer(MODIS)imagery.In object-oriented classification,similar pixels are firstly grouped together and then classified;the produced result does not suffer the speckled appearance and closer to human vision.EVI data are from the MODIS sensor aboard Terra spacecraft.69 EVI data(scenes)were collected during the period of three years(20012003)in a mountainous vegetated area.These data sets were used to study the phenology of the land cover types.Different land cover types show distinct fluctuations over time in EVI values and this information might be used to improve object-oriented land cover classification.Two experiments were carried out:one was only with single date MODIS multispectral data,and the other one including also the 69 EVI images.Eight classes were distinguished:temperate forest,tropical dry forest,grassland,irrigated agriculture,rain-fed agriculture,orchards,lava flows and human settlement.The two classifications were evaluated with independent verification data,and the results showed that with multitemporal EVI data,the classification accuracy was improved 5.2%.Evaluated by McNemar’s test,this improved was significant,with significance level p=0.01.
