    Effect and Analysis (FMEA) method, Risk Priority Number (RPN) Gas production need to consider the risks of the process of production and distribution. The purpose of this research is to identify the risks that exist in the supply chain management of PT. Aneka Gas Industri, and determine mitigation methods from any of existing risk. Identification method that used is the Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA), The FMEA tracking various types of failures from the existing system in PT. Aneka Gas Industri then analyze all the effects caused by the damage. The result that achieved is a descripton of the seriousness and consequences of risk for the company, and the quantification of the value of risk-based of Risk priority Number (RPN). The risk factors of power supply is the most part of critical failure with RPN score 729 and the risk factors of quality of the gas that’s uncertain will be a part of the lowest failure with RPN score of 18. Key words : Supply chain management, Failure Mod

    Statistical properties of substorm auroral onset beads/rays

    Auroral substorms are often associated with optical ray or bead structures during initial brightening (substorm auroral onset waves). Occurrence probabilities and properties of substorm onset waves have been characterized using 112 substorm events identified in Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) all-sky imager data and compared to Rice Convection Model–Equilibrium (RCM-E) and kinetic instability properties. All substorm onsets were found to be associated with optical waves, and thus, optical waves are a common feature of substorm onset. Eastward propagating wave events are more frequent than westward propagating wave events and tend to occur during lower-latitude substorms (stronger solar wind driving). The wave propagation directions are organized by orientation of initial brightening arcs. We also identified notable differences in wave propagation speed, wavelength (wave number), period, and duration between westward and eastward propagating waves. In contrast, the wave growth rate does not depend on the propagation direction or substorm strength but is inversely proportional to the wave duration. This suggests that the waves evolve to poleward expansion at a certain intensity threshold and that the wave properties do not directly relate to substorm strengths. However, waves are still important for mediating the transition between the substorm growth phase and poleward expansion. The relation to arc orientation can be explained by magnetotail structures in the RCM-E, indicating that substorm onset location relative to the pressure peak determines the wave propagation direction. The measured wave properties agree well with kinetic ballooning interchange instability, while cross-field current instability and electromagnetic ion cyclotron instability give much larger propagation speed and smaller wave period

    Large Anomalous Hall and Nernst Effects in High Curie-Temperature Iron-Based Heusler Compounds

    Abstract The interplay between topology and magnetism has recently sparked the frontier studies of magnetic topological materials that exhibit intriguing anomalous Hall and Nernst effects owning to the large intrinsic Berry curvature (BC). To better understand the anomalous quantum transport properties of these materials and their implications for future applications such as electronic and thermoelectric devices, it is crucial to discover more novel material platforms for performing anomalous transverse transport studies. Here, it is experimentally demonstrated that low-cost Fe-based Heusler compounds exhibit large anomalous Hall and Nernst effects. An anomalous Hall conductivity of 250?750 S cm?1 and Nernst thermopower of above 2 µV K?1 are observed near room temperature. The positive effect of anti-site disorder on the anomalous Hall transport is revealed. Considering the very high Curie temperature (nearly 1000 K), larger Nernst thermopowers at high temperatures are expected owing to the existing magnetic order and the intrinsic BC. This work provides a background for developing low-cost Fe-based Heusler compounds as a new material platform for anomalous transport studies and applications, in particular, near and above room temperature

    The real Rs(T)R_s(T) and imaginary Xs(T)X_s(T) parts of the surface impedance Zs(T)=Rs(T)+iXs(T)Z_s(T)=R_s(T)+iX_s(T) in polycrystalline MgB2_2 samples of different density with the critical temperature Tc38T_c\approx 38 K are measured at the frequency of 9.4 GHz and in the temperature range 5T<2005\le T<200 K. The normal skin-effect condition Rs(T)=Xs(T)R_s(T)=X_s(T) at TTcT\ge T_c holds only for the samples of the highest density with roughness sizes not more than 0.1 μ\mum. For such samples extrapolation T0T\to 0 of the linear at T<Tc/2T<T_c/2 temperature dependences λL(T)=Xs(T)/ωμ0\lambda_L(T)=X_s(T)/\omega\mu_0 and Rs(T)R_s(T) results in values of the London penetration depth λL(0)600\lambda_L(0)\approx 600 \AA and residual surface resistance Rres0.8R_{res}\approx 0.8 mΩ\Omega. In the entire temperature range the dependences Rs(T)R_s(T) and Xs(T)X_s(T) are well described by the modified two-fluid model.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figures.
