High temperature x ray diffraction determination of the body-centered-cubic-face-centered-cubic transformation temperature in (Fe{sub 70}Ni{sub 30}){sub 88}Zr{sub 7}B{sub 4}Cu{sub 1} nanocomposites

In situ high-temperature x ray diffraction and magnetization measurements were performed on a melt-spun (Fe{sub 70}Ni{sub 30}){sub 88}Zr{sub 7}B{sub 4}Cu{sub 1} amorphous alloy to follow its structural evolution. At 728 K, a bcc-FeNi phase was observed as the primary crystallization product followed by transformation to an fcc phase {approx}773 K. During cooling to room temperature, the fcc-to-bcc transformation was not observed, and the metastable fcc-NiFe phase was retained at room temperature.

Rigid-body rotation of an electron cloud in divergent magnetic fields

For a given voltage across a divergent poloidal magnetic field, two electric potential distributions, each supported by a rigid-rotor electron cloud rotating with a different frequency, are found analytically. The two rotation frequencies correspond to the slow and fast rotation frequencies known in uniform plasma. Due to the centrifugal force, the equipotential surfaces, that correspond to the two electric potential distributions, diverge more than the magnetic surfaces do, the equipotential surfaces in the fast mode diverge largely in particular. The departure of the equipotential surfaces from the magnetic field surfaces may have a significant focusing effect on the ions accelerated by the electric field. The focusing effect could be important for laboratory plasma accelerators as well as for collimation of astrophysical jets.

Few- and many-nucleon systems with semilocal coordinate-space regularized chiral two- and three-body forces

We illustrate calculations of nucleon-deuteron scattering as well as ground and low-lying excited states of light nuclei in the mass range A = 3 – 16 up through next-to-next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory using semilocal coordinate-space regularized two- and three-nucleon forces. It is demonstrated that both of the low-energy constants entering the three-nucleon force at this order can be determined from the triton binding energy and the differential cross section minimum in elastic nucleon-deuteron scattering. From all considered nucleon-deuteron scattering observables, the strongest constraint on these low-energy constants emerges from the precisely measured cross section minimum at E N = 70 MeV. The inclusion of the three-nucleon force is found to improve the agreement with the data for most of the considered observables.
