文摘Rare earth carbonates are essential precursors for the synthesis of oxide materials.In this study,we utilized in situ monitoring equipment to explore the alterations in the crystallization during the coprecipitation synthesis of cerium carbonate.By controlling the crystallization pathway and in the absence of any te mplating agents,we successfully synthesized a unique sphe rical self-assembled cerium oxide particle(Ceria-S).The Ceria-S exhibits excellent polishing performance.The crystallization process of cerium carbonate at 50℃persists for roughly 50 min.During the initial stages of crystallization from 0 to t_(3),the precipitated particles are amorphous.This is followed by a plateau phase of crystal growth from t_(3)to t_(5).Subsequently,during the burst crystallization phase from t_(5)to t_(6),Ce_(2)(CO_(3))_(3)·6H_(2)O and Ce_(2)O(CO_(3))_(2)·nH2O are formed,exhibiting a rod-like crystal morphology.By rapidly drying the precipitated particles at 60℃for 10 min and calcining,Ceria-S is obtained.The Ceria-S,with an average diameter of 180 nm,is assembled from primary cerium oxide nanoparticles of approximately 15 nm.Owing to the self-assembly structure of cerium oxide spherical nanoparticles,they exhibit a significantly larger specific surface area,resulting in an elevated concentration of Ce^(3+)as high as 35.5%.The Ceria-S exhibits a polishing removal rate of 420 nm/min,effectively decreasing the surface roughness(S_(a))of K9 glass from 1.605 to 0.404 nm.

文摘EHL-2 is an ENN second-generation device aimed at studying proton-boron(p-11B)fusion reactions in a spherical torus.The design parameters are Ti0~30 keV,Ti/Te>2,n_(e0)~1×10^(20)m^(-3),I_(p)~3 MA,B_(t)~3 T,andτ_(E)~0.5 s.High ion temperature is one of the standard operation scenarios of EHL-2,aiming to reduce bremsstrahlung radiation while enhancing plasma parameters by elevating the ion to electron temperature ratio.In order to achieve high ion temperature,neutral beam injection is considered the primary heating method during the flat-top phase.The neutral beam system for EHL-2 comprises 3-5 beams with energy/power ranging from 60 keV/4 MW,80-100 keV/10 MW,to 200 keV/3 MW.This work conducts predictive analysis on core transport during the flat-top phase of EHL-2’s high-ion-temperature scenario utilizing ASTRA.The study delineates the potential operating range of core temperature and other parameters given the designed heating capacity.Specifically,the study presents predictive simulations based on CDBM,GLF23,Bohm-gyro-Bohm,and IFSPPPL transport models,evaluating the steady-state power balance,energy confinement time,and impact of various parameters such as plasma density and NBI power on core ion temperature.The simulations demonstrate that the design parameters of the EHL-2 high-Ti scenario,although sensitive to varying transport models,are hopefully attainable as long as adequate ion heating and controlled ion transport levels are ensured.

文摘Achieving the spin-exchange relaxation-free(SERF)state in atomic comagnetometers(ACMs)necessitates a stable and weak magnetic environment.This paper presents the design of a miniaturized permalloy magnetic shielding spherical shell(MSSS)with minimal apertures,tailored to meet these requirements.By employing a combination of analytical solutions and finite element analysis(FEA),we achieved superior magnetic shielding while maintaining a compact form factor.The analytical solution for the shielding factor indicated that a four-layer permalloy sphere shell with optimized air gaps was necessary.A numerical analysis model of the MSSS was developed and validated using COMSOL software,confirming the suitability of the air gaps.The size,shape,and orientation of the openings in the perforated sphere shell were meticulously designed and optimized to minimize residual magnetism.The optimal structure was fabricated,resulting in triaxial shielding factors of 47619,52631,and 21739,meeting the anticipated requirements.A comparison of simulation results with experimental tests demonstrated the efficacy of the design methodology.This study has significant implications for ultrasensitive magnetic field detection devices requiring weak magnetic field environments,such as atomic gyroscopes,magnetometers,atomic interferometers,and atomic clocks.

文摘A series of CoS_(2-x)Se_(x)(x=0.05,0.1,0.2,0.3,and 2)composite catalysts were synthesized on carbon fiber paper via the hydrothermal method with Se doping.By precisely controlling the reaction temperature and Se doping level,a hollow spherical catalyst structure composed of CoSSe was successfully synthesized,which exhibited exceptional activity for hydrogen evolution in acidic solutions.The influences of Se doping on the microstructure and catalytic mechanism of hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)of these composites were systematically investigated.The experimental results reveal that the hollow spherical sample displays an overpotential value of 143 mV along with a Tafel slope value of 69.8 mV·dec^(-1)at a current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2)in an acid aqueous solution.Furthermore,it demonstrates remarkable cycling stability after undergoing 3000 cycles.The comprehensive analysis indicates that Se doping optimizes the electronic structure and enhances conductivity,meanwhile the unique hollow spherical architecture increases active sites for HER and significantly improves overall electrocatalytic performance.

文摘A dimensionless load-displacement model based on the energy-density equivalence principle is proposed to obtain the stress-strain relationships of metallic materials under monotonic indentations with various diameters of spherical indenters.Finite element simulations are carried out to verify the constitutive relations from the new model,involving indentations made with various spherical indenters.For each indenter,some quasi-static spherical indentation tests are conducted on the materials with 40 preset constitutive relationships.The results indicate that the stress-strain curves predicted by the model align with the preset curves under 200 loading conditions.Moreover,the goodness-of-fit between the predicted stress-strain curves and the preset curves exceeds0.96 for all indenters and materials.In the end,the indentation tests are conducted by the spherical indenters with the diameters of 1.587 mm for fifteen metallic materials and1 mm for eight metallic materials.The results show that the stress-strain curves obtained by the spherical indentation based on the new model closely match those obtained from the uniaxial tensile tests.The relative errors for both the proof strength at 0.2%plastic extension and the tensile strength are below 5%.

文摘This study proposes a numerically efficient technique for computing the far-field scattered by a spherical target placed near the seabed.The bottom is supposed to be a homogeneous liquid attenuating half-space.The transmitter and receiver are situated at different points of a homogeneous water half-space.The distances between the transmitter,receiver,and object of interest are assumed to be much larger than the acoustic wavelength in water.The scattered far-field is ascertained using Hackman and Sammelmann’s general approach.The arising scattering coefficients of a sphere are assessed using the steepest descent approach.The branch cut contribution is also considered.The obtained formulas for the form-function can be used for acoustically rigid or soft scatterers,as well as elastic targets or spherical elastic shells.Numerical simulations are conducted for an acoustically rigid sphere.Asymptotic expressions for the scattering coefficients allow a decrease in the number of summands in the formula for the target strength and a significant reduction in computational time.
文摘Activated carbon(AC)is considered to be an excellent adsorbent due to its high specific surface area and various functional groups.AC powders are available in sizes ranging from 44 to 150 μm.Its particle size prevent its separation from the soil.Therefore,when AC powder is applied to Cd-contaminated soil,it only reduces the bioavailability of Cd and Cd is not necessarily removed but semi-immobilized.Recovery of adsorbent materials from the soil is therefore a preferred soil remediation method.In order to achieve the separation of Cd from soil and the recovery and reuse of AC,a batch of phenolic resin(PR)-carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC)-activated carbon(AC)composite(PCC-800)with uniform particle diameter(diameter 0.8 mm)and high compressive strength was prepared.PCC-800 composites were made of PR/CMC/AC calcined at 800℃ in a certain ratio.The Barrett-Joyner-Halender results showed that the PCC-800 spheres own a mesoporous structure.The compressive strength of PCC-800 pellets was 20.6 N.After first adsorption cycle,total Cd in the soil decreased by 52.18%while bioavailable Cd decreased to 25.68%of the original soil.After three cycles,the recovery rates of PCC-800 were 90.37%and the adsorption regeneration was 72.73%.The PCC-800 immobilized Cd by adsorption,precipitation and complexation reaction.This study demonstrates the potential for developing adsorbents that are both easily separable from soil and highly effective in adsorption.

文摘A kinetic moment-closed model(KMCM), derived from the Vlasov–Fokker–Planck(VFP) equation with spherically symmetric velocity space, is introduced as a general relaxation model for homogeneous plasmas. The closed form of this model is presented by introducing a set of new functions called R function and R integration. This nonlinear model, based on the finitely distinguishable independent features(FDIF) hypothesis, enables the capture of the nature of the equilibrium state and non-equilibrium state. From this relaxation model, a general temperature relaxation model is derived when the velocity space exhibits spherical symmetry, and the general characteristic frequency of temperature relaxation is presented.

文摘ENN He Long-2(EHL-2)is the next-generation large mega-Ampere(MA)spherical torus(ST)proposed and funded by the ENN company.The design parameters are:Ti0>30 keV,n_(e0)~1×10^(20)m^(-3),Ip~3 MA,Bt~3 T.One of the biggest challenges of EHL-2 is how to achieve several MA current flat-tops with limited voltage-seconds(Vs)of the center solenoid(CS)coils.In order to minimize the consumption of Vs,a fully non-inductive start-up by electron cyclotron resonance heating(ECRH)will be applied in EHL-2.The ramp-up phase will be accomplished with the synergetic mode between the CS and non-inductive methods.The strategy of non-inductive start-up and ramp-up with synergetic mode has been verified on EXL-50U’s experiments.Based on this strategy,numerical simulations indicate the feasibility of EHL-2 achieving 3 MA plasma current.A high-performance steady-state scenario with Ip~1.5 MA is also designed.In this scenario,the bootstrap current fraction fBS>70%,the safety factor q at the magnetic axis q0>2,the minimum safety factor qmin>1,the poloidal betaβp>3 and normalized betaβN>2.3.Each design iteration integrates the validation of physical models with the constraints of engineering implementation,gradually optimizing the performance of the heating and current drive(H&CD)systems.Numerical simulation results for general auxiliary H&CD systems such as neutral beam injection(NBI),electron cyclotron(EC)wave,ion cyclotron wave(ICW),and lower hybrid wave(LHW)are presented.These simulation results ensure that the 31 MW H&CD systems comprehensively cover all scenarios while maintaining engineering feasibility.

文摘Existing chaotic encryption schemes primarily focus on single types of images,making the design of hybrid image encryption schemes more suitable for practical applications.In this paper,a hyperchaotic map with a spherical attractor is proposed,which is constructed using spherical coordinates.Dynamical analyses reveal that the hyperchaotic map exhibits global hyperchaos and high complexity,making it capable of generating more complex chaotic sequences suitable for image encryption.A hybrid encryption scheme based on a hyperchaotic map is proposed for two-dimensional(2D)images,three-dimensional(3D)models,and 3D point clouds.Firstly,the pixels of 2D image and the coordinate data of 3D image are fused into a plaintext cube,which is combined with Hash-512 to obtain the initial value of the hyperchaotic map.Chaotic sequences are utilized for cube space internal confusion and dynamic cross-diffusion.The encrypted images demonstrate high information entropy,and the test results show that the encryption scheme effectively protects the images.The proposed hybrid image encryption scheme provides an efficient solution for securing various types of images.
文摘EHL-2 spherical torus(ST)is one of the key steps of p-^(11)B(proton-boron or hydrogen-boron)fusion energy research in ENN.The fusion produced energy is carried mainly by alpha particles of average energy 3 MeV,which ideally can be converted to electricity with high efficiency(>80%).However,there exist serious difficulties to realize such conversion in a fusion device,due to the high energy density and high voltage required.To comprehensively describe the progress of the EHL-2 physics design,this work presents preliminary considerations of approaches for achieving energy conversion,highlighting critical issues for further investigation.Specifically,we provide an initial simulation of alpha particle extraction in the EHL-2 ST configuration as a starting point for p-^(11)B fusion energy conversion.
文摘We study the confinement of a spinless charged particle to a spherical quantum dot under the influence of a linear electric field.The spherical quantum dot is described by a short-range potential given by the power-exponential potential.Then,by analysing the region near the spherical quantum dot centre,we discuss two cases where the energy levels can be obtained for s-waves and how the linear electric field modifies the spectrum of energy of the spherical quantum dot.
文摘Magnetic levitation of the fusion target by coating a thin MgB_(2)superconducting shell on its outer surface has recently been proposed in inertial confinement fusion(ICF)to realize a noncontact support of the target at~20 K to boost the implosion performance and fusion yield.To avoid possible effects on target ablation,the coated MgB_(2)shell is anticipated to be as thin as possible while fulfilling the target levitation requirements.Under this circumstance,the fabrication of an MgB_(2)shell with reduced thickness has been explored using a hybrid physical-chemical vapour deposition method.By gradually decreasing the deposition time,a set of MgB_(2)shells were grown on 1 mm diameter Si_(3)N_(4)spheres with the thickness reducing from 720 nm to 200 nm.The spherical shells all have a polycrystalline structure characterized by closely packed hexagonal grains,with both the grain size and thickness diminishing as the shell thickness decreases.The superconducting transition temperature Tcof the shells,as determined by both resistance and magnetization measurements,is in the range of 38-40 K and all shells exhibit ideal diamagnetism at low temperatures.For the thinnest shell of 200 nm,the superconducting critical current density Jcat 20 K reaches 8.0×10^(6)A/cm^(2)and 2.1×10^(5)A/cm^(2)under zero and 2 T applied field,respectively.The results indicate that it is experimentally feasible to fabricate MgB_(2)spherical shells with a thickness as low as 200 nm while maintaining the high Tcand Jc,thereby taking a further step towards the application of the shell in superconducting magnetic levitation for ICF.

文摘We derive the transport equations from the Vlasov–Fokker–Planck equation when the velocity space is spherically symmetric.The Shkarofsky's form of Fokker–Planck–Rosenbluth collision operator is employed in the Vlasov–Fokker–Planck equation.A closed-form relaxation model for homogeneous plasmas could be presented in terms of Gauss hypergeometric2F1functions.This has been accomplished based on the Maxwellian mixture model.Furthermore,we demonstrate that classic models such as two-temperature thermal equilibrium model and thermodynamic equilibrium model are special cases of our relaxation model and the zeroth-order Braginskii heat transfer model can also be derived.The present relaxation model is a nonequilibrium model based on the hypothesis that the plasmas system possesses finitely distinguishable independent features,without relying on the conventional near-equilibrium assumption.
