The stopping cross section S = dE/NdR in atmospheric air has been measured for ions with [Formula: see text] and the energy ranging from 0.2 to 0.5 MeV. The experimental data have been corrected numerically for nuclear stopping, and the electronic stopping cross sections Se obtained are compared with theory. The previously reported periodic dependence of Se in solids on the atomic number Z1 of the incoming ion for constant velocity is also seen in the present data for a gas target. The structure of the oscillations is found to be insensitive to whether the target is a solid or a gas. In the last part of the paper, some preliminary measurements of the charge-state distributions of the ions emerging from the gas target for various Z1 values are discussed.

The rate of energy loss in nitrogen and argon targets for ions with [Formula: see text] and E < 200 keV has been measured. The contribution to the energy loss from nuclear stopping was calculated using Fastrup's method, and was subtracted from the observed stopping cross section to give the electronic stopping cross section. Over the energy interval studied, the electronic stopping cross sections obtained are below the theoretical values and the energy dependence in argon is much greater than [Formula: see text].A target gas pressure of ~10 μ was used. This reduces the collision frequency eight orders of magnitude below that in a solid. The periodic dependence of the electronic stopping cross section on the atomic number of the incident projectile, previously observed in solid targets, occurs also for such low-pressure gas targets; it is concluded that this dependence is not affected by the collision frequency.

The method of coincidence counting has been applied to an investigation of the possible production of positron-electron pairs by the high energy β-particles from a source of uranium X in absorbers of aluminium, brass and lead. The results are not inconsistent with the high values recently reported for atomic cross-sections for the effect, nor with the suggestion that the atomic cross-section is proportional to the first power of the atomic number rather than the second. Suggestions are made for the use of the β-particles from artificially radioactive substances in an attempt to increase the sensitivity of the method.

The transverse momentum distribution of the differential production cross-sections of heavy flavored charm hadrons [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] in pp collisions at 7 TeV are simulated. Predictions of DPMJETIII.17-1, HIJING1.383 and Sibyll2.3c are compared to the differential cross-section measurements of the LHCb experimental data presented in the region of [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where the pp center of mass frame is used to measure the transverse momentum and rapidity. The models reproduce only some regions of [Formula: see text] and/or bins of [Formula: see text] but none of them predict completely all the [Formula: see text] bins over the entire [Formula: see text] range.

The total photoelectric cross-sections in the elements gadolinium, dysprosium, erbium, lutetium, tantalum, tungsten, gold, and lead have been obtained by using the normal transmission experiments, and the results are reported. Using these total photoelectric cross sections, we have found the K-shell photoelectric cross sections, the K-jump ratios, and the total-to-K-shell photoelectric cross-section ratios at the K edges for the above elements. These values are compared with the available theoretical and experimental values. The results are in good agreement with the Storm and Israel results and the Scofield theoretical values, within the limits of experimental uncertainties. Furthermore, the variation of the total-to-K-shell photoelectric cross-section ratio with energy and atomic number is discussed.

The evaluation are based on mainly on the calculations of the nuclear optical model potential and relevant parameters are collected and selected from References Input Parameter Library (RIPL) which is being developed under the international project coordinated by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The analyzing of a complete energy range has done starting from threshold energy for each reaction. The cross sections are reproduced in fine steps of incident neutron energy with 0.01MeV intervals with their corresponding errors. The recommended cross sections for available experimental data taken from EXFOR library have been calculated for all the considered neutron induced reactions for U-238 isotopes. The calculated results are analyzed and compared with the experimental data. The optimized optical potential model parameters give a very good agreement with the experimental data over the energy range 0.001-20MeV for neutron induced cross section reactions (n,f), (n,tot), (n,el), (n,inl), (n,2n), (n,3n), and (n,γ) for spherical U-238 target elements.

This paper deals with the problem of eigenfrequencies and eigenvectors for rings whose cross section may be decomposed in basic rectangular cross sections. The solution is derived from a solution of the in-plane eigenvalue problem for rectangular cross-section thick rings. A good agreement between theoretical results and experimental data is obtained.

Abstract Closed-form expressions are derived using a superposition approach for the axial deflection and stress distribution of axially loaded rubber blocks of annular cross-section, whose ends are bonded to rigid plates. These satisfy exactly the governing equations and conditions based upon the classical theory of elasticity. Readily calculable relationships are derived for the corresponding apparent Young's modulus, Ea, and the modified modulus, Ea′, and their numerical values are compared with the available experimental data. Elementary expressions for evaluating Ea and Ea′ approximately are deduced from these, in forms which are closely analogous to those given previously for blocks of circular and long, thin rectangular cross-sections. The profiles of the deformed lateral surfaces of the block are discussed and it is confirmed that the assumption of parabolic lateral profiles is not valid generally.

The electronic stopping cross sections in carbon for atomic projectiles with [Formula: see text] have been determined in the energy interval from 10 to 140 kev. In doing so a Monte Carlo calculation was used to subtract from each experimentally observed cross section the contribution which arises from nuclear scattering. The trend of the results thus obtained agrees well with theory. In addition, however, a periodic dependence of Sε on the atomic number of the projectile is observed.
