ABSTRACTNd substituted bismuth titanate Bi4-xNdxTi3O12 were synthesized by sol-gel process and thin films were deposited on Pt substrate (Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si) by spin coating. Thin films, characterized by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy, shows complete solid solution up to the composition x < 1. Initial results indicate that the ferroelectric polarization increases with increasing Nd content in the film with 2Pr = 50μC/cm2 for x = 0.46, which may have application in non-volatile ferroelectric memory devices.

Winds from massive stars and supernovae in starburst galaxies drive global outflows of hot X-ray emitting plasma, as seen in M82 and NGC 253. These galactic winds are important for understanding galaxy evolution & formation, chemical enrichment of the IGM, and the starburst phenomenon itself.X-ray observations provide the only direct probe of the hot gas in these winds. However, the limitations of current X-ray observatories and factors such as complex temperature structure, mass loading by ambient material and projection effects all make the link between the observed data and existing 1 & 2-D modeling and theory difficult to make.We have therefore begun a program of numerical simulations of galactic winds, concentrating on predicting their observable X-ray properties. We present some initial results, comparing them to the archetypal starburst wind system M82.

We present initial results of a survey of the FUV spectra of disk-accreting cataclysmic variables obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE).FUSE covers the 905 - 1188 Å range at spectral resolutions ≃0.1 Å. To date, FUSE has observed more than 65 cataclysmic variables (CVs). Publicly-available data include observations of 11 dwarf novae (DN), 15 non-magnetic novalikes (NLs), 7 intermediate polars and DQ Her stars, at least 15 polars, and 4 super-soft X-ray binaries.

AbstractA novel x-ray spectrograph for the analysis of light elements has been developed based on previous computations and confirming experiments by one of as (H. K. Herglotz). The major components of the instrument are an efficient fluorescent source, a totally reflecting mirror, and an open window photomultiplier. Identification of wavelengths in the range 15 < λ < 80 Å is achieved by the wavelength dependence of the critical angle of reflection of an x-ray beam incident on a suitably chosen low absorption reflector. As the incident angle is increased through the critical angle for a particular wavelength, the reflected beam intensity is sharply reduced; hence, a periodic vibration of the incident beam through a small angular range about the critical angle furnishes a strong a.c. reflected signal characteristic of one narrow wavelength band only.Initial results promise a simple, easy-to-operate instrument for the routine analysis of elements boron to fluorine.
