in this research, the effect of bubble surface area flux, sb, and particle size on flotation rate constant, k, of pyrite (fes2) particles was studied using bubble-particle interactions. the bubble-particle collision, attachment and detachment efficiencies were calculated under different flow regimes. the k increased with increase in the collision efficiency and decrease in the detachment effici...

We present an analysis of wind-blown, parsec-sized, mid-infrared bubbles and associated star formation using the GLIMPSE IRAC, MIPSGAL MIPS, and MAGPIS VLA surveys. Three bubbles from the Churchwell et al. catalog were selected. The relative distribution of the ionized gas (based on 20 cm emission), PAH emission (based on 8 m, 5.8 m, and lack of 4.5 m emission), and hot dust (24 m emission) is ...

Previous studies have documented that decompression led to endothelial dysfunction with controversial results. This study aimed to clarify the relationship between endothelial dysfunction, bubble formation and decompression rate. Rats were subjected to simulated air dives with one of four decompression rates: one slow and three rapid. Bubble formation was detected ultrasonically following decom...

The use of high intensity ultrashort pulsed laser radiation to produce optical breakdown is an important approach for the surgical treatment of intraocular structures. We have investigated the transient properties of Nd:YAG laser induced breakdown in a saline model using time-resolved spectroscopic techniques. Spatially resolved pump and probe techniques are applied to study the dynamic behavio...

We present an analysis of wind-blown, parsec-sized, mid-infrared bubbles and associated star-formation using GLIMPSE/IRAC, MIPSGAL/MIPS and MAGPIS/VLA surveys. Three bubbles from the Churchwell et al. (2006) catalog were selected. The relative distribution of the ionized gas (based on 20 cm emission), PAH emission (based on 8 μm, 5.8 μm and lack of 4.5 μm emission) and hot dust (24 μm emission)...

PURPOSE To compare the visual outcomes of deep anterior lamellar keratoplasty (DALK) for keratoconus with and without successful big-bubble formation. METHODS In this retrospective comparative study, a total of 289 consecutive eyes from 257 patients underwent DALK using the big-bubble technique. In cases where the big bubble could not be accomplished, manual stromal dissection down to Desceme...

Pulsed-laser assisted nanoparticle synthesis in liquids (PLAL) is a versatile tool for nanoparticle synthesis. However, fundamental aspects of structure formation during PLAL are presently poorly understood. We analyse the spatio-temporal kinetics during PLAL by means of fast X-ray radiography (XR) and scanning small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), which permits us to probe the process on length...

Introduction Single bubble dynamics has been intensively investigated theoretically, experimentally and numerically during the last century [1]. Analysis of the interactions between bubbles in a cavitating flow or the interactions among an individual bubble pair has risen from the demand of a more comprehensive understanding of bubble dynamics. When a bubble is induced near an interface by a la...
