Radiation damage of polymethylmetacrylate (PMMA) is investigated irradiating thin films with 100–300 keV helium beams. The damage is deduced by measuring in situ the molecular ejection from the irradiated polymer with a quadrupole mass spectrometer. The main ejected molecular masses are 2, 15, 16, 18, 26, 28 and 44, c…

A novel ceramic synthesis technique, combustion synthesis, was used to produce submicron-sized Y{sub 2}O{sub 3}:Eu{sup 3+} phosphors. This technique exploits the exothermic redox reaction of yttrium and europium nitrates (oxidizers) with urea (CH{sub 4}N{sub 2}O) fuel (reducing agent). Resulting powders were luminesce…

Sintering of In 2 O 3 has been carried out in air to full density. Because of the difference in densification between the agglomerates and the matrix, large interagglomerate pores were observed to form at the initial stage of sintering. Such pore formation could be prevented by applying a small external pressure which…

Possible functions of equine hoof wall tubules were investigated in this study. Hydration tests were conducted on blocks of hoof wall tissue in order to test the hypothesis that hollow tubules facilitate the conduction of water vapour distally. Although water loss or gain was inhibited through the outer wall surface,…

The forced oscillations of a system consisting of two finite liquid columns in a duct separated by a gas bubble are studied in the linear approximation. It is found that thermal processes in the gas induce a very significant damping in the system, which can exceed viscous damping even in capillaries with a submillimet…

Thin oxide films play an important role in the corrosion of metals. Using XPS it is possible in principle to obtain information on the chemical state of near-surface atoms, the stoichiometry of the surface layer and its thickness. A problem is the quantification of XPS spectra, due to the large uncertainty in the valu…
