Orthogonal polynomials in two variables and second-order partial differential equations
AbstractWe study the second-order partial differential equations L[u] = Auxx +22Buxy + Cuyy + Dux + Euy = λnu, which have orthogonal polynomials in two variables as solutions. By using formal functional calculus on moment functionals, we first give new simpler proofs and improvements of the results by Krall and Sheffer and Littlejohn. We then give a two-variable version of Al-Salam and Chihara's characterization of classical orthogonal polynomials in one variable. We also study in detail the case when L[·] belongs to the basic class, that is, Ay = Cx = 0. In particular, we characterize all such differential equations which have a product of two classical orthogonal polynomials in one variable as solutions
Hydrogen Embrittlement Behavior of 18Ni 300 Maraging Steel Produced by Selective Laser Melting
A study was performed to investigate the hydrogen embrittlement behavior of 18-Ni 300 maraging steel produced by selective laser melting and subjected to different heat treatment strategies. Hydrogen was pre-charged into the tensile samples by an electro-chemical method at the constant current density of 1 A m(-2) and 50 A m(-2) for 48 h at room temperature. Charged and uncharged specimens were subjected to tensile tests and the hydrogen concentration was eventually analysed using quadrupole mass spectroscopy. After tensile tests, uncharged maraging samples showed fracture surfaces with dimples. Conversely, in H-charged alloys, quasi-cleavage mode fractures occurred. A lower concentration of trapped hydrogen atoms and higher elongation at fracture were measured in the H-charged samples that were subjected to solution treatment prior to hydrogen charging, compared to the as-built counterparts. Isothermal aging treatment performed at 460 degrees C for 8 h before hydrogen charging increased the concentration of trapped hydrogen, giving rise to higher hydrogen embrittlement susceptibility.11Ysciescopu
Design and Realization of Multiplexing System for Fixed/Mobile Next-Generation Broadcasting Service in Network Free Environment
The Current broadcasting enviroment is constally evolving in order to meet the various needs of the viewer such as ColorTV, 3D, HD, UHD TV serivce. And they want to broadcasting the same quality in the fixed and mobile enviroment for high definition braodcasting serive. In this paper, we presnet a design and implementation of muilplexing system for fixed/mobile next generation broadcasting service in network free enivorment. Network free means receive both the broadcasting channel and communication chennel for various TV service. We introduce method to provide next generation convergence broadcating servies based on european standard which can transmit UHD content in network free envieroment. As a result to this paper, we analyze the characteristics of the recieved signal from the commerical receiver device
A Comparative Study of within QCD Sum Rules with Two Typical Correlators up to Next-to-Leading Order
The B-decay constant is an important component for studying -meson
decays, which can be studied through QCD sum rules. We make a detailed
discussion on from two sum rules, i.e. sum rules I and II, which are
derived from the conventional correlator and the correlator with chiral
currents respectively. It is found that these two sum rules are consistent with
each other. However, the sum rules II has less uncertainty sources than that of
sum rules I, and then it can be more accurate if we know the dimension-four
gluon condensate well. It is found that decreases with the increment of
, and to compare with the Belle experimental data on , both sum rules
prefer smaller pole -quark mass, GeV. By varying all the
input parameters in their reasonable region and adding all the uncertainties
together in quadrature, we obtain MeV for sum rules I and
MeV for sum rules II.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figures, 2 tables. To match the printed version. To be

A Detailed Monte-Carlo Simulation for the Belle TOF System
We have developed a detailed Monte Carlo simulation program for the Belle TOF
system. Based on GEANT simulation, it takes account of all physics processes in
the TOF scintillation counters and readout electronics. The simulation
reproduces very well the performance of the Belle TOF system, including the
dE/dx response, the time walk effect, the time resolution, and the hit
efficiency due to beam background. In this report, we will describe the Belle
TOF simulation program in detail.Comment: To be submitted to NI
Hydraulic characteristics of smart reactor for a nominal condition
SMART (System-integrated Modular Advanced ReacTor) is an integral-type reactor being developed, which has major components including core, pumps, steam generators and a pressurizer inside the reactor vessel. In order to analyze the various safety features of the reactor, the quantification for the flow and pressure distributions are very important. A test facility, named “SCOP”, was designed based on the conservation of Euler number which is a ratio of pressure drop to dynamic pressure with a sufficiently high Reynolds number. In order to preserve the flow distribution characteristics, the SCOP is linearly reduced with a scaling ratio of 1/5. For the present work, a total of 9 tests were performed for a nominal SMART flow condition. By using the test results, a statistical final flow distribution for the SMART reactor were presented. The current data could be applied for the validation of a CFD analysis method as well as reactor safety and system performance analysesPaper presented at the 9th International Conference on Heat Transfer, Fluid Mechanics and Thermodynamics, Malta, 16-18 July, 2012

Quantum vortex fluctuations in cuprate superconductors
We study the effects of quantum vortex fluctuations in two-dimensional
superconductors using a dual theory of vortices, and investigate the relevance
to underdoped cuprates where the superconductor-insulator transition (SIT) is
possibly driven by quantum vortex proliferation. We find that a broad enough
phase fluctuation regime may exist for experimental observation of the quantum
vortex fluctuations near SIT in underdoped cuprates. We propose that this
scenario can be tested via pair-tunneling experiments which measure the
characteristic resonances in the zero-temperature pair-field susceptibility in
the vortex-proliferated insulating phase.Comment: RevTex 5 pages, 2 eps figures; expanded; to appear in Phys. Rev.
Neutron beam test of CsI crystal for dark matter search
We have studied the response of Tl-doped and Na-doped CsI crystals to nuclear
recoils and 's below 10 keV. The response of CsI crystals to nuclear
recoil was studied with mono-energetic neutrons produced by the
H(p,n)He reaction. This was compared to the response to Compton
electrons scattered by 662 keV -ray. Pulse shape discrimination between
the response to these 's and nuclear recoils was studied, and quality
factors were estimated. The quenching factors for nuclear recoils were derived
for both CsI(Na) and CsI(Tl) crystals.Comment: 21pages, 14figures, submitted to NIM
