Results of an aqueous source term model for a radiological risk assessment of the Drigg LLW Site, U.K.
A radionuclide source term model has been developed which simulates the biogeochemical evolution of the Drigg low level waste (LLW) disposal site. The DRINK (DRIgg Near field Kinetic) model provides data regarding radionuclide concentrations in groundwater over a period of 100,000 years, which are used as input to assessment calculations for a groundwater pathway. The DRINK model also provides input to human intrusion and gaseous assessment calculations through simulation of the solid radionuclide inventory. These calculations are being used to support the Drigg post closure safety case. The DRINK model considers the coupled interaction of the effects of fluid flow, microbiology, corrosion, chemical reaction, sorption and radioactive decay. It represents the first direct use of a mechanistic reaction-transport model in risk assessment calculations
Antimagnetic rotation and sudden change of electric quadrupole transition strength in 143Eu
Lifetimes of the states in the quadrupole structure in 143Eu have been
measured using the Doppler shift attenuation method as well as parity of the
states in the sequence has been firmly identified from polarization measurement
using the Indian National Gamma Array. The decreasing trends of the deduced
quadrupole transition strength B(E2) with spin, along with increasing J (2)
/B(E2) values before band crossing, conclusively establish the origin of these
states as arising out of antimagnetic rotation. The abrupt increase in the
B(E2) values after the band crossing in the quadrupole band, a novel feature
observed in the present experiment, may indicates the crossing of different
shears configurations resulting in re-opening of shears structure. The results
are well reproduced by numerical calculation within the framework of
semi-classical geometric model.Comment: 6 pages, 4 postscript figure
Supersymmetry Changing Bubbles in String Theory
We give examples of string compactifications to 4d Minkowski space with
different amounts of supersymmetry that can be connected by spherical domain
walls. The tension of these domain walls is tunably lower than the 4d Planck
scale. The ``stringy'' description of these walls is known in terms of certain
configurations of wrapped Dirichlet and NS branes. This construction allows us
to connect a variety of vacua with 4d N=4,3,2,1 supersymmetry.Comment: 11 pages, harvmac, no figures, reference added, minor correction
Investigation of complete and incomplete fusion in Li+Sn reaction around Coulomb barrier energies
The complete and incomplete fusion cross sections for Li+Sn
reaction were measured using online and offline characteristic -ray
detection techniques. The complete fusion (CF) cross sections at energies above
the Coulomb barrier were found to be suppressed by 26 \% compared to the
coupled channel calculations. This suppression observed in complete fusion
cross sections is found to be commensurate with the measured total incomplete
fusion (ICF) cross sections. There is a distinct feature observed in the ICF
cross sections, i.e., -capture is found to be dominant than
-capture at all the measured energies. A simultaneous explanation of
complete, incomplete and total fusion (TF) data was also obtained from the
calculations based on Continuum Discretized Coupled Channel method with short
range imaginary potentials. The cross section ratios of CF/TF and ICF/TF
obtained from the data as well as the calculations showed the dominance of ICF
at below barrier energies and CF at above barrier energies.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figure
Primordial Magnetic Field Limits from Cosmic Microwave Background Bispectrum of Magnetic Passive Scalar Modes
Primordial magnetic fields lead to non-Gaussian signals in the cosmic
microwave background (CMB) even at the lowest order, as magnetic stresses and
the temperature anisotropy they induce depend quadratically on the magnetic
field. In contrast, CMB non-Gaussianity due to inflationary scalar
perturbations arises only as a higher order effect. Apart from a compensated
scalar mode, stochastic primordial magnetic fields also produce scalar
anisotropic stress that remains uncompensated till neutrino decoupling. This
gives rise to an adiabatic-like scalar perturbation mode that evolves passively
thereafter (called the passive mode). We compute the CMB reduced bispectrum
() induced by this passive mode, sourced via the
Sachs-Wolfe effect, on large angular scales. For any configuration of
bispectrum, taking a partial sum over mode-coupling terms, we find a typical
value of , for a magnetic field of nG, assuming a nearly
scale-invariant magnetic spectrum . We also evaluate, in full, the bispectrum
for the squeezed collinear configuration over all angular mode-coupling terms
and find . These values are more than times larger than the
previously calculated magnetic compensated scalar mode CMB bispectrum.
Observational limits on the bispectrum from WMAP7 data allow us to set upper
limits of nG on the present value of the cosmic magnetic field of
primordial origin. This is over 10 times more stringent than earlier limits on
based on the compensated mode bispectrum.Comment: 9 page
Particle-Hole Symmetry and the Effect of Disorder on the Mott-Hubbard Insulator
Recent experiments have emphasized that our understanding of the interplay of
electron correlations and randomness in solids is still incomplete. We address
this important issue and demonstrate that particle-hole (ph) symmetry plays a
crucial role in determining the effects of disorder on the transport and
thermodynamic properties of the half-filled Hubbard Hamiltonian. We show that
the low-temperature conductivity decreases with increasing disorder when
ph-symmetry is preserved, and shows the opposite behavior, i.e. conductivity
increases with increasing disorder, when ph-symmetry is broken. The Mott
insulating gap is insensitive to weak disorder when there is ph-symmetry,
whereas in its absence the gap diminishes with increasing disorder.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
