The elastic moduli of polymerically stabilized suspensions consisting of colloidal silica particles coated with endgrafted PDMS ( M n = 80 000) in heptane, were measured as a function of concentration. And the elastic modulus at high frequency was quantitatively described by model calculations with microscopic paramet…

The intensity maxima of lamellar reflections in small-angle scattering patterns from uniaxially oriented polymers such as fibers do not generally fall on a straight layer line or on a circular arc. The shape of the reflection can be analyzed by measuring the periodicity L φ of the lamellar planes as a function of the…

With the help of a Si(Li) detector, incoherent scattering cross sections of Ag, In and Sn were determined from 40°-135° in the case of 59.54 keV gamma rays of Am-241. A new method has been developed to determine differential incoherent scattering cross sections of elements. This method is based on simultaneous measure…

A method of obtaining polymer with markedly decreased entanglements concentration in melt, via high-pressure crystallization of high-density polyethylene (HDPE), is elaborated. It is shown, by calculations and experiments, that melting of chain-extended crystals obtained in this process provides a chain-disentangled m…

We present a model calculation for the temperature dependent behaviour of surface states on a ferromagnetic local-moment film. The film is described within the s-f model featuring local magnetic moments being exchange coupled to the itinerant conduction electrons. The surface states are generated by modifying the hopp…

We use Monte-Carlo simulations to study island formation in the growth of thin semiconducting films deposited on lattice-mismatched substrates. It is known that islands nucleate with critical nuclei of about one atom and grow two dimensionally until they reach a critical size s$_c$, when it is favorable for the island…

A comprehensive theoretical and experimental study is presented of the magnetic susceptibility versus temperature χ(T) of spin S = 1/2 two- and three-leg Heisenberg ladders and ladder oxide compounds. Extensive quantum Monte Carlo simulations of χ(T) were carried out for both isolated and coupled two-leg ladders with…

Polyelectrolytes in poor solvents show a necklace structure where collapsed polymer pearls are linked to stretched strings. In the present paper the elasticity of such chains is studied in detail. Different deformation regimes are addressed. The first is the continuous regime, where many pearls are present. A continuo…
