Thick Target Neutron Production on Aluminum and Copper by 40 MeV Deuterons

The thick target neutron yields （TTNYs） of deuteron-induced reaction on AI and Cu isotopes are analyzed by combining the improved nuclear models and particle transport effects. The modified Glauber model is employed mainly to produce the peak of double differential cross section for the breakup process, and the exciton model and the Hauser-Feshbach theory are used for the statistical processes. The thin-layer accumulation method is used to calculate the TTNYs considering the neutron attenuation effects in the target. The calculated results are compared with the existing experimental data, and the analysis method can predict the TTNY data well at the deuteron energy of 40 MeV.

Power Production and Construction in China:Review of Tasks in 2000 and Major Targets and Focal Tasks for 2001

This paper, excerpted from General President Gao Yan’s Speech on the State Power Corporation Working Conference for 2001, held in Shenzhen on December 23-25, 2000, reviews the power production and construction tasks in 2000 and puts forward the major targets and focal tasks of power production and construction for 2001.

Simulation and Design of Tentative Muon Source Based on CSNS

This paper presents a conceptual design for the first tentative surface muon source based on the proton beam provided by China Spallation Neutron Source （CSNS）. We have calcu- lated the optimal parameters of solid muon target, in which the method of Monte Carlo simula- tion is used to obtain the optimal muon beam parameters, such as beam fiuence rate, momentum spread and phase space distribution. A simple muon transport beamline system was also designed, which could transport the muons emitted from the muon target into the experimental area, where positrons from muon decay in a test sample are detected by a spectrometer. The beam optics of this new beam line is also described.

New Thought about the Marketing Orientation of Middle and Small-sized Enterprises of China

The reasonable marketing orientation is related to the survival and the development of the enterprises. According to the disadvantages and superiority of the middle and small sized enterprises of our country, this paper analyzes the new thought about the marketing orientation from the aspects of marketing product orientation, marketing way orientation, marketing target orientation, marketing strategy orientation and marketing idea orientation. It has great theoretical and practical significance.

Review on high repetition rate and mass production of the cryogenic targets for laser IFE

In inertial fusion energy(IFE) research, a considerable attention has recently been focused on the issue of large target fabrication for MJ-class laser facilities. The ignition and high-gain target designs require a condensed uniform layer of hydrogen fuel on the inside of a spherical shell. In this report, we discuss the current status and further trends in the area of developing the layering techniques intended to produce ignition, and layering techniques proposed to high repetition rate and mass production of IFE targets.

Putting the treatment of paediatric schistosomiasis into context

Despite increased international efforts to control schistosomiasis using preventive chemotherapy,several challenges still exist in reaching the target populations.Until recently,preschool-aged children had been excluded from the recommended target population for mass drug administration,i.e.primary school children aged 6-15 years.Our studies and those of others provided the evidence base for the need to treat preschool-aged children that led to recommendations by the World Health Organization to include preschool-aged children in treatment programmes in 2010.The major challenge now lies in the unavailability of a child-size formulation of the appropriate anthelmintic drug,praziquantel.The currently available formulation of praziquantel presents several problems.First,it is a large tablet,making it difficult for young children and infants to swallow it and thus requires its breaking/crushing to allow for safe uptake.Second,it is bitter so it is often mixed with a sweetener to make it palatable for young children.Third,the current formulation of 600 mg does not allow for flexible dose adjustments for this age group.Thus,there is a need to formulate a child-appropriate praziquantel tablet.This paper discusses the target product profile for paediatric praziquantel,as well as knowledge gaps pertinent to the successful control of schistosome infection and disease in preschool-aged children.
