Integral Equations for Heat Kernel in Compound Media
By making use of the potentials of the heat conduction equation the integral
equations are derived which determine the heat kernel for the Laplace operator
in the case of compound media. In each of the media the parameter
acquires a certain constant value. At the interface of the media the
conditions are imposed which demand the continuity of the `temperature' and the
`heat flows'. The integration in the equations is spread out only over the
interface of the media. As a result the dimension of the initial problem is
reduced by 1. The perturbation series for the integral equations derived are
nothing else as the multiple scattering expansions for the relevant heat
kernels. Thus a rigorous derivation of these expansions is given. In the one
dimensional case the integral equations at hand are solved explicitly (Abel
equations) and the exact expressions for the regarding heat kernels are
obtained for diverse matching conditions. Derivation of the asymptotic
expansion of the integrated heat kernel for a compound media is considered by
making use of the perturbation series for the integral equations obtained. The
method proposed is also applicable to the configurations when the same medium
is divided, by a smooth compact surface, into internal and external regions, or
when only the region inside (or outside) this surface is considered with
appropriate boundary conditions.Comment: 26 pages, no figures, no tables, REVTeX4; two items are added into

ВЛИЯНИЕ ПАРАМЕТРОВ ПЛАСТИЧЕСКОГО ФОРМОВАНИЯ НА СТРУКТУРНЫЕ ХАРАКТЕРИСТИКИ ТЕРМОЭЛЕКТРИЧЕСКОГО МАТЕРИАЛА В ПРОЦЕССЕ ГОРЯЧЕЙ ЭКСТРУЗИИ
We used mathematical modeling to compare the stress and deformation in a Bi0.4Sb1.6Te3 solid solution base thermoelectric material for extrusion through different diameter dies. The results show that extrusion through a 20 mm diameter die produces a more inhomogeneous deformation compared with extrusion through a 30 mm diameter die. Extrusion through a die of a larger diameter produces a structure that is coarser but has a more homogeneous grain size distribution. The degree of preferential grain orientation is higher for extrusion through a larger diameter die. We found a change in the lattice parameter of the solid solution along the extruded rod, correlating with detect formation during extrusion. The concentration of vacancies is higher for extrusion through a smaller diameter die. This difference between the structures results from a more intense dynamic recrystallization for a smaller diameter die. Increasing the die diameter and lowering the extrusion temperature allow retaining the thermoelectric properties of the material due to a better texture.С помощью математического моделирования проведено сравнение напряжений и деформаций в термоэлектрическом материале на основе твердого раствора Bi0,4Sb1,6Te3 при экструзии через фильеры с разным диаметром. Показано, что при экструзии через фильеру диаметром 20 мм возникает более неоднородная деформация, чем при экструзии через фильеру 30 мм. Установлено, что при увеличении диаметра фильеры структура материала получается менее дисперсная, но более однородная по размерам. Степень преимущественной ориентации зерен при экструзии через фильеру большего диаметра более высокая. Обнаружено изменение параметра решетки твердого раствора по длине экструдированного стержня, связанного с дефектообразованием в процессе экструзии. Выявлено, что концентрация вакансий больше при экструзии через фильеру меньшего диаметра. Это является следствием более интенсивного протекания процессов динамической рекристаллизации. При переходе к большему диаметру фильеры и более низкой температуре экструзии термоэлектрические свойства материала сохраняются за счет лучшей текстуры
Decay properties of neutron-deficient isotopes , ,
Isotopes of dubnium (element 105) with mass numbers , 257, and 258
were produced by the reaction
Bi(Ti,xn)Db () at projectile energies
of (4.59-5.08) AMeV. Excitation functions were measured
for the 1n, 2n and 3n evaporation channels.
The same position of the excitation function was
observed for the 1n channel as
for the previously measured 1n channel
of the reaction Pb(Ti,1n)Rf.
The measured -decay data
of Db and its daughter products resulted in the
identification of -decaying isomeric states in Db
and Lr.
Two new isotopes,
Db and Lr, were produced
at the highest bombarding energies of 4.97 AMeV and
5.08 AMeV.
They were identified by delayed
- coincidences.
The measured half-lives are
s for Db and
s for Lr.
Besides -decay, a spontaneous fission activity of
s
was observed and attributed to an electron-capture branch of Db,
which feeds the fissioning nucleus Rf.
A branching ratio of
was obtained.
The isotope Rf was produced by
the reaction Pb(Ti,2n)Rf.
Improved decay data have been obtained by means of - and
- spectroscopy
