Circumstellar aluminum oxide and silicon carbide in interplanetary dust particles

A systematic NanoSIMS isotope imaging study of sub-micrometer phases in interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) has led to the discovery of two presolar grain types that previously were observed only in primitive meteorites. A 350 · 600 nm Al2O3 grain has a large O enrichment and a slight O depletion, as well as a Mg excess due to the decay of extinct Al. Because of its relatively large size and p...

Metallic Cobalt Particles (with or without Tungsten Carbide)

Absorbed dose delivered by alpha particles calculated in cylindrical geometry.

The present work aims to develop a semi-analytical method to calculate the absorbed dose delivered by alpha particles in a cylindrical geometry. This method will be employed to reproduce the dose conversion coefficients or absorbed fraction of alpha particles in sensitive cells of the tracheobronchial tree obtained by NRC and ICRP, respectively. The difference caused by using water stopping pow...

Experimental study of fracture mechanics in the aluminum matrix composites containing Fifteen percent silicon carbide particles

In this investigation ‚the fracture toughness of A356 containing15%SiC composite was studied. Al/SiC composites have been considered because of their mechanical and erosion properties .Low fracture toughness in Al/SiC as compared with Aluminium alloys is one of its disadvantage. In this study at first A356 alloy was melted in a smelting electrical furnace then poured into the mould. A356-15% Si...
