The influence of magnetic field on wear in sliding contacts
This thesis was submitted for the award of Doctor of Philosophy and was awarded by Brunel University on 13/12/2010.The influence of the horizontal magnetic field has not been sufficiently studied in contrast to study activity on the influence of the vertical magnetic field by researchers. The reason was that the influence of horizontal magnetic field to change the wear mass loss of ferromagnetic materials is smaller compared to the vertical magnetic field. However, the influence of horizontal magnetic field on rolling contact changes the subsurface crack initiation point toward surface is postulated by a researcher. Therefore, it is significance finding out how the horizontal magnetic field influences the tribological characteristics. This thesis presents a study on the influence of the horizontal magnetic field on wear in sliding contacts contributes for ascertainment the effect and mechanism of horizontal magnetic field on tribological characteristics of sliding contacts, through the experimental approach.The static magnetic field with densities of 0 and 1.1 Tesla and different orientations was applied to different contact conditions, different surface modifications and two sliding frequencies, using a ball-on-plate contact configuration. In conclusion, the presence of magnetic field enhances the chemical adsorption between iron or oxide iron and oxygen, and causes the transition of adhesive wear to oxidative wear. Besides, the presence of magnetic field combined with low sliding frequency forms the bulging on the wear surface and weakens the prevailing wear mechanism due to the low frictional temperature. On the other hand, the presence of magnetic field combined with high sliding frequency induces the transition to the oxidative wear mechanism and reduces the wear. Also, distinctly different appearances of wear surface are created by different magnetic field orientations. In the lubricated sliding contact, the magnetic field causes the reduction of wear and induction of oxide. It is postulated that the presence of magnetic field enhances the oxygen adsorption on the wear track by iron wear particles and hence varies the tribological behaviour. The influence of magnetic field on carbon steel coating consists in changes of oxide iron layer and steel layer, alterations of mechanical properties of the coating, and decrease in the mass loss and the surface roughness on the dry sliding contact. All these could be suggested the influence of adhesive strength of the interface between the base material and coating

Design report of the KISS-II facility for exploring the origin of uranium
One of the critical longstanding issues in nuclear physics is the origin of
the heavy elements such as platinum and uranium. The r-process hypothesis is
generally supported as the process through which heavy elements are formed via
explosive rapid neutron capture. Many of the nuclei involved in heavy-element
synthesis are unidentified, short-lived, neutron-rich nuclei, and experimental
data on their masses, half-lives, excited states, decay modes, and reaction
rates with neutron etc., are incredibly scarce. The ultimate goal is to
understand the origin of uranium. The nuclei along the pathway to uranium in
the r-process are in "Terra Incognita". In principle, as many of these nuclides
have more neutrons than 238U, this region is inaccessible via the in-flight
fragmentation reactions and in-flight fission reactions used at the present
major facilities worldwide. Therefore, the multi-nucleon transfer (MNT)
reaction, which has been studied at the KEK Isotope Separation System (KISS),
is attracting attention. However, in contrast to in-flight fission and
fragmentation, the nuclei produced by the MNT reaction have characteristic
kinematics with broad angular distribution and relatively low energies which
makes them non-amenable to in-flight separation techniques. KISS-II would be
the first facility to effectively connect production, separation, and analysis
of nuclides along the r-process path leading to uranium. This will be
accomplished by the use of a large solenoid to collect MNT products while
rejecting the intense primary beam, a large helium gas catcher to thermalize
the MNT products, and an MRTOF mass spectrograph to perform mass analysis and
isobaric purification of subsequent spectroscopic studies. The facility will
finally allow us to explore the neutron-rich nuclides in this Terra Incognita.Comment: Editors: Yutaka Watanabe and Yoshikazu Hirayam
The Precision nEDM Measurement with UltraCold Neutrons at TRIUMF
The TRIUMF Ultra-Cold Advanced Neutron (TUCAN) collaboration aims at a
precision neutron electric dipole moment (nEDM) measurement with an uncertainty
of , which is an order-of-magnitude better than
the current nEDM upper limit and enables us to test Supersymmetry. To achieve
this precision, we are developing a new high-intensity ultracold neutron (UCN)
source using super-thermal UCN production in superfluid helium (He-II) and a
nEDM spectrometer. The current development status of them is reported in this
article.Comment: Proceedings of the 24th International Spin Symposium (SPIN 2021),

Status of the Superomega Muon Beam Line at J-PARC
AbstractSuperomega muon beamline is currently under construction at Experimental hall No. 2 of Materials and Life Science Facility at J-PARC in Tokai, Japan. The beamline has a large solid angle acceptance, and will produce the highest intensity pulsed muon beam in the world. The beamline is designed to capture both surface positive and cloud negative muons for simultaneous use in a variety of experiments. The expected rate of surface muons for this beamline is 4×108μ+/s, and that for cloud muons is 107μ−/s. The beamline consists of the normal-conducting capture solenoid, the superconducting curved transport solenoid and axial focusing solenoid. The construction of the capture solenoid has been completed and installed in March 2009, and the transport solenoid is now fabricated, and will be installed by the end of 2011. The conceptual design of the axial focusing solenoid is completed, and the mechanical design is underway
