Improved Method of Fatigue Life Assessment for TiAl Alloys
For rapid fatigue life assessment of TiAl alloys,
the new method was proposed based on qualitative
and quantitative analyses. The qualitative
analysis was employed to illustrate the microstructure
effect for TiAl alloys on their fatigue
life. The new formula is derived for estimation
of the interaction forces of dislocations, which
yields quite satisfactory results. The results of
qualitative and quantitative analyses were used
to predict the fatigue life improvement by the
addition of trace elements producing grain refinement.Предложен новый метод оценки усталостной долговечности TiAl сплавов по результатам

Langevin Simulation of Thermally Activated Magnetization Reversal in Nanoscale Pillars
Numerical solutions of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert micromagnetic model
incorporating thermal fluctuations and dipole-dipole interactions (calculated
by the Fast Multipole Method) are presented for systems composed of nanoscale
iron pillars of dimension 9 nm x 9 nm x 150 nm. Hysteresis loops generated
under sinusoidally varying fields are obtained, while the coercive field is
estimated to be 1979 14 Oe using linear field sweeps at T=0 K. Thermal
effects are essential to the relaxation of magnetization trapped in a
metastable orientation, such as happens after a rapid reversal of an external
magnetic field less than the coercive value. The distribution of switching
times is compared to a simple analytic theory that describes reversal with
nucleation at the ends of the nanomagnets. Results are also presented for
arrays of nanomagnets oriented perpendicular to a flat substrate. Even at a
separation of 300 nm, where the field from neighboring pillars is only 1
Oe, the interactions have a significant effect on the switching of the magnets.Comment: 19 pages RevTeX, including 12 figures, clarified discussion of

The ARGO-YBJ Experiment Progresses and Future Extension
Gamma ray source detection above 30TeV is an encouraging approach for finding
galactic cosmic ray origins. All sky survey for gamma ray sources using wide
field of view detector is essential for population accumulation for various
types of sources above 100GeV. To target the goals, the ARGO-YBJ experiment has
been established. Significant progresses have been made in the experiment. A
large air shower detector array in an area of 1km2 is proposed to boost the
sensitivity. Hybrid detection with multi-techniques will allow a good
discrimination between different types of primary particles, including photons
and protons, thus enable an energy spectrum measurement for individual specie.
Fluorescence light detector array will extend the spectrum measurement above
100PeV where the second knee is located. An energy scale determined by balloon
experiments at 10TeV will be propagated to ultra high energy cosmic ray
experiments

A study of charged kappa in
Based on events collected by BESII, the decay

spectrum recoiling against the charged , the charged
particle is found as a low mass enhancement. If a Breit-Wigner function of

the decay is observed for the first time.
Its branching ratio is .Comment: 14 pages, 4 figure
