ОПРЕДЕЛЕНИЕ ПРОПУСКНОЙ СПОСОБНОСТИ ТРУБОПРОВОДОВ ФИЛЬТРАТА

Необходимость определения пропускной способности трубопроводов фильтрата дисковых вакуум-фильтров возникает, например, при увеличении нагрузки на фильтры, изменении характеристик питания, режимов фильтрова-ния или при появлении участков трубопроводов, в которых износ от трения привел к потере герметичности и к необходимости замены отдельных участков. Пропускная способность трубопровода зависит от его конструкции и от условий на входе и выходе. На вход в трубопровод поступает фильтрат, про-шедший через слой осадка и фильтровальную перегородку. В настоящее время из-за снижения крупности частиц твердого, поступающих на флотацию, пита-ние флотации принимают разбавленным, что снижает содержание твердого и в питании фильтров. При разбавленном и мелкозернистом материале фильтро-вальные диски не полностью покрыты слоем осадка, и он оказывается слишком тонким. Это приводит к снижению вакуума в вакуумной системе фильтрата

Strong coupling in the Kondo problem in the low-temperature region

The magnetic field dependence of the average spin of a localized electron coupled to conduction electrons with an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction is found for the ground state. In the magnetic field range $\mu H\sim 0.5 T_c$ ($T_c$ is the Kondo temperature) there is an inflection point, and in the strong magnetic field range $\mu H\gg T_c$, the correction to the average spin is proportional to $(T_c/\mu H)^2$. In zero magnetic field, the interaction with conduction electrons also leads to the splitting of doubly degenerate spin impurity states

Kondo effect in a magnetic field and the magnetoresistivity of Kondo alloys

The effect of a magnetic field on the spectral density of a $\rm{S=1/2}$ Kondo impurity is investigated at zero and finite temperatures by using Wilson's numerical renormalization group method. A splitting of the total spectral density is found for fields larger than a critical value $H_{c}(T=0)\approx 0.5 T_{K}$, where $T_{K}$ is the Kondo scale. The splitting correlates with a peak in the magnetoresistivity of dilute magnetic alloys which we calculate and compare with the experiments on $\rm{Ce_{x}La_{1-x}Al_{2}}, x=0.0063$. The linear magnetoconductance of quantum dots exhibiting the Kondo effect is also calculated.Comment: 4 pages, 4 eps figure

Tuning the 4f-state occupancy of cerium in highly correlated CeSi/ Fe multilayers: a study by x-ray absorption spectroscopy

Spectra of x-ray absorption and magnetic circular dichroism were measured at M4,5(3d) and L2,3(2p) edges of Ce in multilayers [Ce(1-x)Six/Fe]xn, with x between 0.1 and 0.65. The study uncovers the highly correlated nature of this layered system. An alpha-phase like electronic configuration of Ce is observed, with ordered magnetic moments on the 4f and 5d electrons induced by the interaction with Fe. Increasing the Si content reduces the strength of the hy-bridization between the 4f and conduction-band states which is reflected in a growing occupation and magnetic polarization of the 4f states. Variations of the shape and intensity of the L2,3-edge dichroism spectra, discussed in a simple phenomenological model, show the importance of the exchange interaction between the Ce-4f and 5d electrons, spin polarized by the interaction with Fe at the interfaces, for the electronic structure of Ce at high Si concentration and low temperature. A model of the band structure of rare-earth transition-metal compounds permits to argue that magnetic order on the Ce 4f electrons in the multilayers is due to different mechanisms: to hybridization of the Ce-4f with the Fe-3d states at low Si concentration and to intra-atomic 4f-5d exchange at high Si concentration. This is at variance with magnetic order in the intermetallics CeSi2-delta and CeSi which results from interaction between the localized 4f magnetic moments mediated by the Si-derived (s,p) conduction electrons, in competition with the Kondo effect.Comment: 31 pages, 9 figures, submitted to Phys.

Possible robust insulator-superconductor transition on solid inert gas and other substrates

We present observations of the insulator-superconductor transition in ultrathin films of Bi on amorphous quartz, quartz coated with Ge, and for the first time, solid xenon condensed on quartz. The relative permeability $\epsilon_r$ ranges from 1.5 for Xe to 15 for Ge. Though we find screening effects as expected, the I-S transition is robust, and unmodified by the substrate. The resistance separatrix is found to be close to h/4e^2 and the crossover thickness close to $\rm 25 \AA$ for all substrates. I-V studies and Aslamazov-Larkin analyses indicate superconductivity is inhomogeneous. The transition can be understood in terms of a percolation model.Comment: accepted in Physical Review
