Ions in cold electrostatic storage devices Ions in cold electrostatic storage devices

We have constructed a compact purely electrostatic ion-beam trap, ConeTrap, which we have mounted inside a double-walled vacuum chamber. In the inner vacuum chamber, we can obtain ultra-high vacuum (UHV) conditions and reach thermal equilibrium at well controlled temperatures down to 10 K. The chamber was constructed partly with the purpose of making high-precision measurements in ConeTrap, but...

Effect of chitosan coatings on some quality indices of apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) during cold storage

In this study, the effectiveness of chitosan coating treatment to control weight loss and maintaining fruit quality of apricot was investigated. Fruits were coated with 0.25%, 0.5% and 0.75% chitosan as well as distilled water (control). Following treatments, fruits were stored at 0?C and 80 ? 2% relative humidity for 25 days. The weight loss, total soluble solids (TSS), titratable acidity (TA)...

Cold Storage Warehouses - an Engineering Overview

The product to be handled in a refrigerated facility defines the building's function. Will the incoming product be fresh or frozen? If the product is fresh, how much and what kind of further processing will there be done in the facility? This consideration will define the need for ice production and handling, special cutting, portioning, or other processing and/or cooking machinery. Will the fu...

Cheap Data Analytics using Cold Storage Devices

Enterprise databases use storage tiering to lower capital and operational expenses. In such a setting, data waterfalls from an SSDbased high-performance tier when it is “hot” (frequently accessed) to a disk-based capacity tier and finally to a tape-based archival tier when “cold” (rarely accessed). To address the unprecedented growth in the amount of cold data, hardware vendors introduced new d...
