Электропривод регулирующей трубопроводной арматуры на базе синхронного двигателя с постоянными магнитами

Цель работы – создание нового поколения регулирующих взрывозащищенных электроприводов с минимальными габаритными размерами, массой и себестоимостью, не уступающих по точности регулирования и функциональным характеристикам регулирующим электроприводам производства других фирм. В процессе работы был произведен расчет и выбор электропривода. Проведено моделирование и анализ работы привода в разных режимах.The purpose of the work is to create a new generation of regulating explosion-proof electric drives with minimum overall dimensions, weight and cost, which are not inferior in regulation accuracy and functional characteristics to regulating electric drives produced by other companies. During operation electric drive was calculated and selected. Simulation and analysis of the drive operation in different modes were carried out

Cosmic-ray positron fraction measurement from 1 to 30 GeV with AMS-01

A measurement of the cosmic ray positron fraction e+ / (e+ + e-) in the energy range of 1-30 GeV is presented. The measurement is based on data taken by the AMS-01 experiment during its 10 day Space Shuttle flight in June 1998. A proton background suppression on the order of 106 is reached by identifying converted bremsstrahlung photons emitted from positrons.ISSN:0370-2693ISSN:0031-9163ISSN:1873-244

Geiger-mode avalanche photodiodes as photodetectors in Cherenkov astronomy

The progress in the development of Geiger-mode avalanche photodiodes (G-APD) has resulted in devices which show great promise for Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescopes (IACT). In the course of the First G-APD Camera Test (FACT) project with the purpose to construct a G-APD based camera, their characteristics are analysed and measured in detail. The angle dependence of the photon detection efficiency was measured and found to be flat. The effects of saturation and cross-talk on the reconstruction of the number of detected photons was studied. Since these effects are of a statistical nature, the reconstructed number is limited in its precision. For small numbers of photons, crosstalk is the limiting factor. For photon numbers comparable to or higher than the number of cells of the G-APD, the main limitation is the saturation
