Improved Calculation of Photoneutron Yields Released by Incident Electrons

Calculation of neutron yields released by electrons incident on selected materials.

Improved purification and yields of RNA by RNeasy.

Giant dipole resonance neutron yields produced by electrons as a function of target material and thickness.

This paper characterizes the functional dependence of the giant dipole resonance neutron yield produced by electrons in terms of the atomic number (Z) and thickness (T) of the target. The yields were calculated by integrating, over the photon energy, the product of the differential photon track length and published photoneutron cross sections. The EGS4 Monte Carlo code and analytical formulas w...

Dynamical Characteristics of Rydberg Electrons Released by a Weak Electric Field.

The dynamics of ultraslow electrons in the combined potential of an ionic core and a static electric field is discussed. With state-of-the-art detection it is possible to create such electrons through strong intense-field photoabsorption and to detect them via high-resolution time-of-flight spectroscopy despite their very low kinetic energy. The characteristic feature of their momentum spectrum...

Improved Correlation Dimension Calculation

For many chaotic systems, accurate calculation of the correlation dimension from measured data is difficult because of very slow convergence as the scale size is reduced. This problem is often caused by the highly nonuniform measure on the attractor. This paper proposes a method for collecting data at large scales and extrapolating to the limit of zero scale. The result is a vastly reduced requ...
