Metal matrix syntactic foams (MMSFs) are a class of fascinating particulate composites consisting metal and hollow spheres, which promising in the light-weight structural energy absorbing applications. However, absorption capacity most MMSFs is suffocated inevitably by relatively low strength traditional alloys, such as widely used aluminum magnesium alloys. Here, we developed novel MMSF with C...

The total reaction cross section of high-energy nucleus-nucleus collision refects the nuclear density profiles colliding nuclei and has been a standard tool to investigate size properties short-lived unstable nuclei. This basis relies on assumption that is strongly absorptive in sense an optical model. However, this property does not hold completely, while incomplete absorption occurs when over...
