Soft x-ray free electron laser microfocus for exploring matter under extreme conditions.
We have focused a beam (BL3) of FLASH (Free-electron LASer in Hamburg: lambda = 13.5 nm, pulse length 15 fs, pulse energy 10-40 microJ, 5 Hz) using a fine polished off-axis parabola having a focal length of 270 mm and coated with a Mo/Si multilayer with an initial reflectivity of 67% at 13.5 nm. The OAP was mounted and aligned with a picomotor controlled six-axis gimbal. Beam imprints on poly(m...
متن کاملPerformance and prediction of soft clay behavior under vacuum conditions
This paper describes the behavior of soft soil foundation under vacuum-assisted preloading at the Second Bangkok International Airport, Thailand. An analytical solution considering the variation of soil permeability and compressibility is proposed. The associated settlement and excess pore pressure at the embankment centerline are predicted and compared with the available field measurement. The...
متن کاملOptical Metrology under Extreme Conditions
Optical metrology provides full field, noncontact, precise measurement of various physical parameters of materials, structures, and devices. These properties include kinematic parameters (displacement, velocity, and acceleration), deformation parameters (strains, curvature, and twist), surface parameters (shape and roughness), and mechanical properties of materials (Young’s modulus, Poisson’s r...
متن کاملFrictional melting of gabbro under extreme experimental conditions of normal stress, acceleration and sliding velocity
Understanding the physics of earthquake slip helps to improve seismic hazard predictions. The occurrence of quenched frictional melts along exhumed fault zones (pseudotachylytes) provides unequivocal evidence of ancient seismic slip along these faults [Sibson, 1975]. In order to better understand the evolution of friction (the ratio of shear stress over normal stress) during meltgenerating slip...
متن کاملMultiscale Simulations of Soft and Hard Matter
Colloidal suspensions usually consist of colloidal particles of size 1 nm to 1 μm which are surrounded by a solvent, typically water. In these systems the kinetic energy of the colloids at room temperature is about the strength of their interaction energy. Hence, these systems or materials are considered as soft and deformable and known as “soft matter”. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of su...
