APPLICATION OF THE ^(16)O(α,α) ^(16)O RESONANCE ELASTIC SCATTERING IN OXYGEN DEPTH PROFILING OF SIMOX STRUCTURES

The resonance nuclear elastic scattering 16O(α,α) 16O at 3.045 MeV has been used to profile oxygen distributions in SOI material synthesised by SIMOX technique. The buried SiO2 layer is produced by 1.8×1018 at./cm2 oxygen implantation at 500℃ and high temperature annealing at 1405℃ for 30 min. The experimental results show that after annealing sharp SiO2/Si interfaces at both sides of buried layer and a very good quality of top Si single crystal layer are obtained. The formation mechanism of the buried layer, correlated with SiO2 precipitates and dissolution, radiation enhanced diffusion and epitaxial growth, is discussed.

Elastic electron scattering with formamide-(H_(2)O)_(n) complexes(n=1,2):Influence of microsolvation on the π^(*) and σ^(*) resonances

We report elastic cross sections for low-energy electron scattering with formamide-(H_(2)O)n complexes(n=1,2)in the energy region of 0.01-8 eV.The scattering calculations are performed using the R-matrix method in the static-exchange(SE)approximation.We consider three structures of formamide-H_(2)O and six structures of formamide-(H_(2)O)_(2)in the present work.Our purpose is to investigate effects of water molecules hydrogen-bonding to formamide.We focus on the influence of microsolvation on theπ*andσ*resonances of formamide.The scattering result for complexes shows that the position ofπ*resonance appears at lower or higher energies in the cluster than in the isolated formamide depending on the complex structure and the water role in the hydrogen bonding.We explain this behavior according to the net charge of the solute.It is found that the microsolvation environment has a substantial effect on the width ofπ*resonance.Our results indicate that surrounding water molecules may affect the lifetime of the resonances,and hence the process is driven by the anion state,such as the dissociative electron attachment.

Burnup analysis for the pebble-bed fluoride-salt-cooled high-temperature reactor based on the energy-dependent elastic scattering cross-sectional model

To carry out accurate burnup calculations for a pebble-bed fluoride-salt-cooled high-temperature reactor,the energy-dependent cross-sectional model based on the Doppler broadening rejection correction method has been proposed to develop the energy-dependent elastic scattering cross-sectional model. In this study, the Monte Carlo continuous energy code PSG2/Serpent was used to examine the difference between the constant cross-sectional model and the energy-dependent cross-sectional model during burnup. For the cases analyzed in this study,numerical simulations show that the multiplication coefficient was improved by hundreds pcm and ^(239)Pu concentration was improved by approximately 1–2% during burnup when the energy-dependent elastic scattering crosssectional model is considered.

Accurate calculation of the elastic scattering properties of ^7Li atoms at ultralow temperatures

The elastic scattering properties for collisions between two ^7Li atoms are investigated in the cold and ultracold regimes separately. Based on recent theoretical and experimental results, we present the improved hybrid potentials for the singlet X^1 ∑g^＋ and triplet a^3 ∑u^＋ ground states of the Li2, Our calculated values for the scattering lengths α and the effective ranges re are compared with previous ones, and found them to be in good agreement. The scattering lengths are 34.6α0 for the singlet state and -27.6α0 for the triplet state. Shape resonances occur in the collisions at low energies. We also calculate the total cross sections and the energy positions of shape resonances for both X^1 ∑g^＋ and a^3 ∑u^＋ states.

Elastic scattering of two ground-state N atoms

An interaction potential for an N2（X^1∑g^＋） molecule is constructed by using the highly accurate valence internally contracted multireference configuration interaction method and the largest basis set, aug-cc-pV6Z, in the valence range. The potential is used to investigate the elastic scattering of two N atoms at energies from 1.0×10^-11 to 1.0 × 10^-4 a.u. The derived total elastic cross sections are very large and almost constant at ultralow temperatures, and the shape of total elastic cross section curve is mainly dominated by the s-partial wave at very low collision energies. Three shape resonances are found in the total elastic cross sections. Concretely, the first one is very sharp and strong. It results from the g-partial-wave contribution and the resonant energy is 3.645 × 10^-6 a.u. The second one is contributed by the h-partial wave and the resonant energy is 1.752 × 10^-5 a.u. This resonance is broadened by those from the d- and f-partial waves. The third one comes from the l = 6 partial wave contribution and the resonant energy is 3.522 × 10^-5 a.u. This resonance is broadened by those from the g- and h-partial waves. The N2（X1∑g＋） molecular parameters, which are determined at the current theoretical level, achieve very high accuracy due to the employment of the largest correlation-consistent basis set in the valence range.

Calculation of the elastic scattering properties for cold and ultracold 39K atoms in a triplet state

The elastic scattering properties for collisions between cold and ultracold 39K atoms in a triplet state are investigated. Based on the recent theoretical and experimental results, the improved hybrid potential is presented for a triplet α3∑u^＋ ground state of K2. Our calculated value of the s-wave scattering length a by using the Numerov method for the triplet state is 79.578α0 and found to be in good agreement with the previous ones. The numbers of bound states are supported by the molecular potential. Pronounced shape resonances appear for the l = 3 partial waves for the α3∑u^＋ state. Furthermore, the s-wave scattering cross section, the total cross section and energy positions of shape resonances for the α3∑u^＋ state are calculated.

Elastic electron scattering with CH_(2)Br_(2)and CCl_(2)Br_(2):The role of the polarization effects

We present elastic electron scattering cross sections with holmethane molecules CH_(2)Br_(2)and CCl_(2)Br_(2)in the lowenergy region ranging from 0.01 e V to 20 e V.The calculations are performed with the R-matrix method in static-exchange plus polarization(SEP)and close-coupling(CC)approximations.The integral,differential,and momentum transfer cross sections are calculated.The convergence of the obtained cross sections is checked at four different levels of SEP approximation.The predicted positions of the resonances agree well with available results.The precise resonance parameters are found to be sensitive to the treatment of polarization effects employed.We find that the polarization has a substantial effect on the cross sections,and this effect becomes even more important for lower impact energies.

Elastic Collisions Between two Ground-State P and D Atoms at Low and Ultralow Temperatures

The PD（X^3∑^-） interaction potential is constructed using the CCSD（T） theory and the basis set, augcc-pV5Z. Using this potential, the spectroscopic parameters are accurately determined. The present Do, De, Re, ωe, ωeχe, αe, and Be are of 3.056 99 eV, 3.161 75 eV, 0.142 39 nm, 1701.558 cm^-1, 23.6583 cm^-1, 0.085 99 cm^-1, and 4.3963 cm^-1, respectively, which almost perfectly conform with the measurements. A total of 26 vibrational states is predicted when J = 0 by solving the radial Sehrodinger equation of nuclear motion. The complete vibrational levels, classical turning points, initial rotation and centrifugal distortion constants when J = 0 are reported for the first time, which favorably agree with the experiments. The total and various partial-wave cross sections are calculated for the elastic impact between two ground-state P and D atoms at 1.0 × 10^-12 - 1.0 × 10^-4 a.u. when they approach each other along the PD（X^3∑^-） potential. No shape resonances exist in the total elastic cross sections, though the peaks can be found for each partial wave until l=6. The shape of the total elastic cross sections is dominated by the s partial wave at very low temperatures. Due to the weakness of the shape resonances of each partial wave, they are all passed into oblivion by the strong total elastic cross sections.

Simulation and analysis of ～(13)N+p elastic resonance scattering

The ^13 N＋p elastic resonance scattering has been studied at the secondary radioactive beam facility of CIAE in inverse kinematics via a thick-target method. The excitation function for the ^13N（p,p） scattering was obtained in the energy interval of Ecru ≈0.5-3.2 MeV with a ^13 N secondary beam of （47.8±1.5） MeV. Careful analysis of the secondary beam components and extensive Monte-Carlo simulations enable the resolution of the experimental proton spectra. The resonance parameters for five low-lying levels in ^14 O were deduced by Rmatrix fitting calculations with MULTI7 and SAMMY-M6-BETA. The present results show general agreement with those from a recent similar work, and thus confirm the observation of a new 0^- level at 5.7 MeV in 140 with an improved width of 400（45） keV.

Levels in ^(13)N examined by ^(12)C+p elastic resonancescattering with thick target

The elastic resonance scattering of ^12C＋p has been studied in inverse kinematics via a novel thicktarget method at GIRAFFE facility of HI-13 tandem accelerator laboratory, Beijing. The recoil protons weremeasured by a AE-E counter telescope based on a large area double-sided silicon strip detector at laboratoryangles around θ0 = 15^o. The excitation function for ^12C（p,p） elastic scattering has been obtained over a wideenergy range of Ec.m. =0.31-3.45 MeV, which was explained quite well by the R-matrix calculation with known resonance parameters of the first three levels in ^13N nucleus. Thus it is demonstrated that the present setup can be directly applied to the study of elastic resonance scattering with secondary radioactive beams.

Pure elastic resonance scattering of an obliquely incident plane acoustic wave by a submerged infinite cylinder

Although sound scattering by submcrged elastic cylinders was extensively studied,only a few works aimed at the case of obliquely incidence. In this paper, we derive a simple and explicit expression of the pure clastic resonance scattering function of a submerged infinite cylinder excited by a plane wave at obliquely incidcnce. For backscattering of a solid aluminum cylinder we calculated (a) the partial resoriance spectra n=0 to 7, (b) the far field total form functions and the pure elastic resonance form the functions, (c) the complex resonance poles in the normalized complex frequency plane and (d) the dispersion curves of the first several families of helical waves, at various incident angles in details. It was discussed that the generation mechanism and properties of the complementary resonance modes are existed only at oblique incidence. Our attention is also focused on the variance of the resonance spectra with the incident angle, particularly near several critical angles.

Pure elastic resonance scattering for submerged elastic objects with separable geometries

Theoretically, the extraction of resonance scattering spectra is performed by a pure elastic scattering function, which is defined as the total scattering function subtracts an appropriate background term. In this paper, we derive a simple and explicit expression of the pure elastic scattering function for the separable geometries immersed in water. It depends on the modal mechanical impedance and acoustic impedance except a phase factor only relative to the geometry Analyses used the new expression leads to two Kinds of resonances with distinguishable character: the elastic-borne wave resonances and the fluid-borne wave resonances. The former depends mainly on elasticity of the object and the fiuid-loading has secondary effect. The later is related closely with the liquid-loading and vanishes if the liquidloading vanishes. This allows us to classify the family of individual resonance correctly. Taking into account the contributions of the fluid-borne wave resonances, we modify the conventional resonance scattering formula by use of the Singularity Expansion Method.

The resonance scattering of underwater elastic cylinders

If the frequency of the incident sound wave coincides with one of the eigenfrequencies of the underwater elastic cylinder, the corresponding eigenvibration will be excited by incident sound wave and strongly reradiate sound wave towards surronding water. It has been revealed by previous investigations that the amplitude of backscattering sound appears to be minimum at the eigenfrequencies of the underwater metallic cylinders because of the destructive interference between reradiated wave of the eigenvibration and the geometrical reflected wave from surface of the cylinders. In this paper, a new phenomenon has been revealed. The amplitude of backscattering sound appears to be maximum at the eigenfrequencies of a cylinder made from nonmetallic material in which the velocity of elastic transverse wave is less than the sound velocity in water.

INFLUENCE OF NUCLEAR RESONANCE ^(56)Fe(p,p)^(56)Fe ON K-SHELL IONIZATION PROBABILITY

The K-shell ionization probability Pk was measured as a function of Ep across the strong resonance 56Fe(p,p)56Fe at 2.522 MeV and about 50 % variation was observed. For a large ratio of the K-shell binding energy to the total width of the nuclear resonance, Uk/Г≥5, the present experimental result is still in good agreement with theoretical calculation based on Blair and Anholt’s formula.

The Coulomb Resonances, the Quasi-Real Photons and Electro-Disintegration of Nuclei by High-Energy Electrons

Various aspects of the influence of the quasi-real photons and the Coulomb resonances on the formation of the crosssection of inelastic scattering of high energy electrons on atomic nuclei are investigated. Emiss is the energy that disappears in the processes of knocking-on of protons in the reactions . A new hypothesis that interprets the origin of the energy losses is proposed. Specific experiments that can confirm or refute this hypothesis are proposed as well. The “regularized” cross-sections of electro-disintegration of nuclei by high-energy electrons are calculated in the framework of the nuclear shell model. It is shown that for the experimental verification of the existence of Coulomb resonances, it is necessary to investigate the processes at relatively small angles of scattering. The peculiarities of numerical methods that are crucial in the investigation of inelastic scattering of high-energy electrons on nuclei in the framework of the nuclear shell model are analyzed in this work as well. The cross-sections of the scattering of high-energy electrons on the angle are calculated. It is shown that the orthogonality of the wave functions of a knocked-on proton in the initial and final states plays an important role in the interpretation of this process.

水中双层无限长圆柱壳体声散射

研究水下双层无限长圆柱壳体的声散射。采用弹性薄壳理论和Fourier变换方法导出了散射声场的解析解。并分别计算了平面波正横和斜入射单层和双层无限长圆柱壳体的远场散射形态函数。计算表明在不同的入射角,由于不同类型的弹性波被激励,散射波呈现不同的特性。通常双层无限长圆柱壳体的散射特性由外壳、内壳和中间耦合水层共同作用决定。但外壳很薄、内壳较厚、水层较薄时,无限长充水双层圆柱壳体的低频散射特性主要由单层内壳决定。当然这时外壳的共振特性也不能忽略。

水中弹性球壳的共振声辐射理论

为了深入认识水中结构的声辐射机理，木文提出一个称为共振辐射理论（ResonanceRadiationTheory－RRT）的新理论。它是由共振散射理论（ResonanceScatterinyTheory－RST）推广得到的。对于一个在内壁简谐力激励下的水中弹性球壳，从经典的Rayleish简正级数解出发导出了共振辐射公式。水中薄钢球壳的辐射分波的数值计算表明，辐射形态函数与散射形态函数相似。由复共振极点参数按照共振辐射公式合成的辐射声功率曲线与严格理论的计算结果符合良好。

在MCNP中考虑共振弹性散射的修正方法

蒙特卡罗方法采用自由气体模型来考虑中子与靶核的弹性碰撞中的热效应。传统的模型假设绝对零度下的弹性散射截面是常数,忽略了截面的共振效应所带来的影响。为在自由气体模型中考虑共振弹性散射效应,采用多普勒展宽舍弃修正方法,修正了连续能量蒙特卡罗程序MCNP的自由气体模型,并对Mosteller轻水堆多普勒基准题进行了分析。数值结果表明：对于轻水堆,在热态零功率的情况下,忽略共振弹性散射会高估燃料棒的无限介质增殖因数（k∞）40~100pcm,热态满功率下高估140~200pcm;忽略共振弹性散射给燃料温度系数带来7%~15%正的偏差。同时分析了新的抽样方法对计算时间的影响,以及共振弹性散射效应对中子出射能量分布的影响。

声子晶体中弹性波带隙与散射

声子带隙产生条件是声子晶体研究的一个重要问题,首先对钢圆柱体嵌入空气基质组成的声子晶体散射截面进行计算,然后用平面波方法计算了弹性波带结构。结果表明声子带隙将出现在两个完全分离的共振态之间。因此,声子晶体产生完全带隙的条件是弹性波在基质材料中的传播被禁止并远离共振。
