Packing Fractions and Maximum Angles of Stability of Granular Materials

In two-dimensional rotating drum experiments, we find two separate influences of the packing fraction of a granular heap on its stability. For a fixed grain shape, the stability increases with packing fraction. However, in determining the relative stability of different grain shapes, those with the lowest average packing fractions tend to form the most stable heaps. We also show that only the configuration close to the surface of the pile figures prominently.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure

Coincident Charge State Production In F⁶⁺+Ne Collisions

Total cross sections are presented for the production of various stages of multiple ionization of the target in coincidence with the final projectile charge state for collisions of F6+ with Ne at 10 and 15 MeV. In particular, the current measurements are compared with the results of a classical trajectory Monte Carlo method in which electrons are included explicitly on both target and projectile (nCTMC) and with those based on the conventional independent electron model (IEM). It is shown by the good agreement with experiment that the nCTMC model simultaneously represents well the ionization, charge transfer and excitation channels for both target and projectile. Further, it is demonstrated that the IEM is in clear disagreement with the present experiment and is inadequate to predict the outcome of such multi-electronic transition processes. However, the IEM is shown to provide a reasonable estimate of the free electron production, that is, the cross section summed over charge states weighted by the number of electrons liberated. The IEM is also used to illustrate a process in cusp electron production where electrons are interchanged between the target and projectile. © 1990, IOP Publishing Ltd

Large-angle Scattering In Positron-helium And Positron-krypton Collisions

We have calculated differential cross sections as a function of the projectile scattering angle for positron-helium and positron-krypton collisions using the classical-trajectory Monte Carlo technique. These intermediate- velocity collisions have been simulated by various independent-electron and n-electron models, using both screened Coulomb and quantum model potentials to approximate the effects of electron-electron interactions. These several models all indicate that scattering of positrons to large angles in ionizing collisions persists to high impact velocities. In a previous work [Phys. Rev. A 38, 1866 (1988)] we proposed that the recent experiments that have measured the total cross section for positronium formation could be affected by the loss of positron flux due to incomplete confinement after large-angle scattering. Here, utilizing these newly calculated differential-scattering cross sections, adjustments are computed that account for the difference between the experimental and theoretical behaviors of the positronium formation cross section. Further, it is demonstrated that large angle scattering in the elastic channel is important for one of the experiments. We have also computed total cross sections for ionization and charge transfer for collisions of protons with krypton. Good agreement is obtained in these cases with experimental measurements. © 1989 The American Physical Society

Classical Calculation Of High-energy Electron Capture In 5-MeV Proton-hydrogen Collisions

The existence of the classical Thomas peak in the angular distribution of projectiles undergoing capture in collisions of 5-MeV protons with atomic hydrogen is explored using the three-body, three-dimensional classical-trajectory Monte Carlo technique. A method that selects only that portion of the initial phase space which yields capture at this energy was developed to make the calculation tractable due to the extremely small cross section. The spectrum obtained displays only a small shoulder near the angle predicted by Thomas on the basis of successive classical binary collisions and the total (integral) cross section is overestimated by a factor of 26 compared to recent experimental measurements. The overestimation originates from too large a contribution from velocity matching direct capture; the energy regime in which it is significant is discussed. In addition, the double-scattering events in this model which contribute significantly to the cross sections are found to differ substantially from the Thomas picture. © 1992 The American Physical Society

Preventing Selenium Poisoning in Growing and Fattening Pigs

The condition commonly referred to as alkali disease has been known for a number of years to be the result of chronic poisoning by selenium. South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station bulletin 311, published in 1937, explained the cause for this disease and thoroughly described the symptoms exhibited by various farm animals. The work reported here was started in 1953. At that time effective and practical control measures had not been found
