Production cross-sections and momentum distributions of fragments from neutron-deficient 36Ar at 1.05 A.GeV

We have measured production cross sections and longitudinal momentum distributions of fragments from neutron-deficient 36Ar at 1.05 A.GeV. The production cross-sections show excellent agreement with the predictions of the semiempirical formula EPAX. We have compared these results, involving extremly neutron deficient nuclei, with model calculations to extract informa tion about the response of these models close to the driplines. The longitudinal momentum distributions have also been extracted and are compared with the Goldhaber and Morrissey systematics.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figure

A simple functional form for proton-nucleus total reaction cross sections

A simple functional form has been found that gives a good representation of the total reaction cross sections for the scattering of protons from (15) nuclei spanning the mass range ${}^{9}$Be to ${}^{238}$U and for proton energies ranging from 20 to 300 MeV.Comment: 13 pages, 7 figures, bib fil

Slowing-Down in the Radiator and Cherenkov Radiation Angular Distributions from Relativistic Heavy Ions at FAIR, SPS and LHC energies

An adaptive learning algorithm using laser velocity meter is proposed for the process control of tandem cold mills. This method is used for on-line adaptive learning calculation of deformation resistance of strip and rolling friction models. The reverse calculation values of deformation resistance and friction coefficient as variables of non-linear equations can be obtained by introducing the measured rolling force and forward slip into the calculation model individually. Using Newton-Raphson iterative calculation to solve the non-linear equations, the reverse calculation values can be calculated. The actual forward slip obtained from the measured strip rolling speed using laser meter makes it possible that the deformation resistance of strip and friction coefficient can be uncoupled for model adaptive learning calculation. The inverse calculation and adaptive learning can improve whole control system of tandem cold mills significantly
