Double pion photoproduction on nucleon and deuteron
Photoproduction of two pions on nucleon and deuteron is studied for photon
energies from threshold up to GeV. For the elementary operator
an effective Lagrangean approach is used with resonance and Born contributions.
The model parameters are fixed by resonance decay widths and multipole analyses
of single pion photoproduction. A satisfactory description of total cross
sections of two-pion production on the proton for various charge channels is
achieved, except for production for which a significant
underestimation is found near threshold. The operator then serves for the
evaluation of this reaction on the deuteron in the impulse approximation. In
addition, rescattering in the final state is taken into account, but and rescatterings are neglected. Results are presented for total
cross sections and target asymmetries.Comment: 28 pages revtex including 12 ps-figure
Vector Meson Photoproduction with an Effective Lagrangian in the Quark Model
A quark model approach to the photoproduction of vector mesons off nucleons
is proposed. Its starting point is an effective Lagrangian of the interaction
between the vector meson and the quarks inside the baryon, which generates the
non-diffractive s- and u- channel resonance contributions. Additional t-channel
and exchanges are included for the and
production respectively to account for the large diffractive behavior in the
small region as suggested by Friman and Soyeur. The numerical results are
presented for the and productions in four isospin channels with
the same set of parameters, and they are in good agreement with the available
data not only in and productions but also in the charged
productions where the additional t-channel exchange does not
contribute so that it provides an important test to this approach. The
investigation is also extended to the photoproduction, and the initial
results show that the non-diffractive behavior of the productions in the
large region can be described by the s- and u- channel contributions with
significantly smaller coupling constants, which is consistent with the findings
in the similar studies in the QHD framework. The numerical investigation has
also shown that polarization observables are essential for identifying
so-called "missing resonances".Comment: 36 pages, 10 PS figures, extended version of nucl-th/9711061 and

Pore-scale Modeling of Viscous Flow and Induced Forces in Dense Sphere Packings
We propose a method for effectively upscaling incompressible viscous flow in
large random polydispersed sphere packings: the emphasis of this method is on
the determination of the forces applied on the solid particles by the fluid.
Pore bodies and their connections are defined locally through a regular
Delaunay triangulation of the packings. Viscous flow equations are upscaled at
the pore level, and approximated with a finite volume numerical scheme. We
compare numerical simulations of the proposed method to detailed finite element
(FEM) simulations of the Stokes equations for assemblies of 8 to 200 spheres. A
good agreement is found both in terms of forces exerted on the solid particles
and effective permeability coefficients
Analysis of low Reynolds number flow around a heated circular cylinder
The objective of this study is to investigate the forced convection from and the flow around a heated cylinder. Experimental and computational results are presented for laminar flow around a heated circular cylinder with a diameter of 10 mm. The experiments were carried out using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV) in a wind tunnel, and numerical simulations using an in-house code and a commercial software package, FLUENT. This paper pre-sents comparisons for vorticity and temperature contours in the wake of the cylinder. Experimental and computa-tional results are compared with those available in the literature for heated and unheated cylinders. An equation is suggested for a temperature-dependent coefficient defining a reference temperature to be used in place of the con-stant used in other studies. An attempt is also made to correct differences between average cylinder surface tem-perature and measured interior temperature of the cylinder

Umweltgerechte Prozessführung und Zustandserkennung in Chemieanlagen mit neuronalen Netzen - Teilvorhaben 2: Konzipierung und Erprobung des Zustandserkennungsverfahrens
Im Rahmen des Teilvorhabens wurde ein Online-Monitoring-System für stark exotherme Reaktionen entwickelt, das das Bedienungspersonal bei der optimalen und umweltgerechten Prozessführung von komplexen oder sicherheitstechnisch schwierigen Semibatch-Prozessen in Rührkesselreaktoren (Batch-Reaktoren) unterstützen soll. Das Monitoring-System (MoSys) basiert auf dimensionslosen Stoff- und Wärmebilanzen mit adaptiven Komponenten. MoSys muss zuerst mit den Prozessdaten von normalen und unerwünschten Batch-Verläufen angelernt werden, die im Miniplant unter den Bedingungen des Industrieprozesses durchgeführt wurden. Die Adaption der Bilanzmodelle an die Zielanlage erfolgt durch zweischichtige Perceptron-Netze. Um eine vollständige Maßstabsübertragung zu gewährleisten, sollte MoSys mit Prozessdaten von mindestens einem normalen Batch-Verlauf in der Chemieanlage angepasst und validiert werden. MoSys wurde sowohl für eine homogene exotherme Veresterungsreaktion als auch für einen komplexen heterogenen exothermen Hydrierprozess konzipiert. Experimentelle Tests wurden für die Veresterung in einer Pilotanlage und für die Hydrierung in einer industriellen Chemieanlage durchgeführt. Zur Industrieerprobung wurde MoSys in ein Batch-Informations-Management-System (BIMS) integriert, das auch entwickelt und in das Prozessleitsystem (PLS) einer Mehrzweckanlage im Feinchemie-Werk Radebeul (Degussa AG) implementiert wurde. Dadurch konnten die MoSys-Ausgaben simultan mit wichtigen Prozesssignalen auf den Terminals des PLS visualisiert werden. Zum Beispiel werden der Hydrierungsfortschritt, das vorhergesagte Reaktionsende und die Konzentrationsverläufe des Edukts, Zwischenprodukts und Produkts auf den Terminals der Operatorstationen angezeigt. Wenn unerwünschte Betriebszustände auftreten, wird das Bedienungspersonal frühzeitig alarmiert und Anweisungen für Gegenmaßnahmen, die nur vom Operator ausgeführt werden dürfen, werden auf den Terminals angezeigt. Die Leistungsfähigkeit von MoSys/BIMS konnte während zweier Hydrierungs-Produktionskampagnen nachgewiesen werden
Correct quantum chemistry in a minimal basis from effective Hamiltonians
We describe how to create ab-initio effective Hamiltonians that qualitatively
describe correct chemistry even when used with a minimal basis. The
Hamiltonians are obtained by folding correlation down from a large parent basis
into a small, or minimal, target basis, using the machinery of canonical
transformations. We demonstrate the quality of these effective Hamiltonians to
correctly capture a wide range of excited states in water, nitrogen, and
ethylene, and to describe ground and excited state bond-breaking in nitrogen
and the chromium dimer, all in small or minimal basis sets
