Radiation-driven evolution of low-mass x-ray binaries and the formation of millisecond pulsars (open access)

Radiation-driven evolution of low-mass x-ray binaries and the formation of millisecond pulsars

Recent data on low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) and millisecond pulsars (MSPs) pose a challenge to evolutionary theories which neglect the effects of disk and comparison irradiation. Here we discuss the main features of a radiation-driven (RD) evolutionary model that may be applicable to several LMXBs. According to this model, radiation from the accreting compact star in LMXBs vaporizes'' the accretion disk and the companion star by driving a self-sustained mass loss until a sudden accretion-turn off occurs. The main characteristics of the RD-evolution are: (1) lifetime of RD-LMXB's is of order 10{sup 7} years or less; (2) both the orbital period gap and the X-ray luminosity may be consequences of RD-evolution of LMXB's containing lower main sequence and degeneration companion stars; (3) the companion star may transfer mass to the primary even if it underfills its Roche lobe; (4) a class of recycled MSPs can continue to vaporize the low-mass companions by a strong pulsar wind even after the accretion turn-off; (5) the RD-evolutionary model resolves the apparent statistical descrepancy between the number of MSPs and their LMXB progenitors in the Galaxy. We discuss the implications of the discovery of single MSPs in low-density globular clusters and the recent measurements …

Application of telerobotic control to remote processing of nuclear material (open access)

Application of telerobotic control to remote processing of nuclear material

In processing radioactive material there are certain steps which have customarily required operators working at glove box enclosures. This can subject the operators to low level radiation dosages and the risk of accidental contamination, as well as generate significant radioactive waste to accommodate the human interaction. An automated system is being developed to replace the operator at the glove box and thus remove the human from these risks, and minimize waste. Although most of the processing can be automated with very little human operator interaction, there are some tasks where intelligent intervention is necessary to adapt to unexpected circumstances and events. These activities will require that the operator be able to interact with the process using a remote manipulator in a manner as natural as if the operator were actually in the work cell. This robot-based remote manipulation system, or telerobot, must provide the operator with an effective means of controlling the robot arm, gripper and tools. This paper describes the effort in progress in Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory to achieve this capability. 8 refs.

Interface stability and defect formation during crystal growth (open access)

Interface stability and defect formation during crystal growth

Unidirectional solidification experiments have been carried out in organic crystals with the aim of improving our knowledge on the effects of constraints on the interface morphology and to increase our understanding of the growth of anisotropic materials. The experimental information shows that lateral constraints such as a sharp change in the cross-sectional area in the solid liquid interface path, can produce important changes in the microstructure if the interface morphology is planar, cellular or dendritic. The study of anisotropic materials cover several topics. It is first shown that slight anisotropy does not influence the dendrite tip selection criterion. This conclusion is obtained from the analysis of the relationship between tip radius and velocity for dendrites growing under the steady state condition for two different materials, CBr{sub 4} and C{sub 2}Cl{sub 6}, which have different surface energy anisotropy values. The values of the dendrite operating parameters {sigma}* are compared with the predictions of the solvability theory and the morphological stability theory. The experiments show better agreement with the latter theory. Critical experiments have been designed and carried out to find the response functions which determine the composition and temperature of the interface as a function of velocity in faceted materials.

Gas-phase generations and rearrangement of silathiones, R sub 2 Si=S (open access)

Gas-phase generations and rearrangement of silathiones, R sub 2 Si=S

Three routes are explored for the generation of silathiones: (1) the retroene elimination of propene from allythiodimethylsilane and 1-allythio-1-hydrido-1,2,2,2-tetramethylsilane; (2) the reaction of silylene, Me{sub 2}Di, with carbon disulfide which is thought to form a transient 3-membered ring with CS{sub 2} and the elimination of carbon disulfide to produce diethylsilathione; and (3) the beta-elimination of bis(trimethylsilythio)dimethylsilane. All these methods are explored in some detail. A second example of a silathione-silylene isomerization was observed in the pyrolysis of 1,1-bis(trimethylsilythio)-1,2,2,2-tetramethyldisilane. 89 refs., 5 figs., 10 tab. (BM)

Photomodulation spectroscopy of photocarrier dynamics, electronic defects and morphology of conducting polymers (open access)

Photomodulation spectroscopy of photocarrier dynamics, electronic defects and morphology of conducting polymers

This is a progress report on the second period of activities associated with the DOE grant to the Physics Department of the University of Utah, starting on April 1st, 1991, on photocarrier dynamics, electronic defects and morphology of conducting polymers using the photomodulation spectroscopy. During the second period of this grant we have achieved impressive results and have started new studies, to be completed during the grant continuation period of the third year. We will describe our progress according to the material studied, since this is the best method to summarize our accomplishments. We have used a variety of techniques in our studies such as: CW photomodulation, photomodulation in the femtosecond and picosecond time ranges, CW resonant Raman scattering, transient photoinduced Raman scattering, electro-absorption, degenerate four-wave mixing and the newly technique of spin dependent photomodulation. These techniques have been used to obtain the transient electronic response of the studied conducing polymers.

Competing electron-electron/electron-phonon interactions and polyacetylene (open access)

Competing electron-electron/electron-phonon interactions and polyacetylene

Using Lanczos exact diagonalization, we investigate the effects of the competition between the electro-electron and electron-phonon interactions in the context of the 1-D tight-binding Peierls-Hubbard Hamiltonian, studying various structural, optical, and vibrational properties of strongly correlated systems. We use polyacetylene as our experimental guide, and perform a parameter space search to determine the level at which a unique set of parameters can model this prototypical conducting polymer and, more generally, the applicability of the simple'' 1-D Peierls-Hubbard Hamiltonian to these highly interesting materials. 9 refs., 3 tabs.

[Assessment of effects of surfactants in a heavy oil reservoir] (open access)

[Assessment of effects of surfactants in a heavy oil reservoir]

During the past three months we have carefully negotiated a joint venture to implement a pilot for testing the two enhanced oil recovery processes developed at CLD Technology, Inc. The technical staff at CLD Technology, Inc. has decided to model the heavy oil reserve on the Cantleberry Lease, the Jasmin oil field in Kern County, California. Staff members have designed a new sand pack to represent one-eighth (1/8) of a one, ten-acre, five-spot well pattern that will represent the sands of the Cantleberry lease. All calculated parameters are listed in Table 1. The 3-dimensional scaled physical model design represents a typical Cantleberry steamflood pattern. The design of the model will allow the creation of zones identical to those in the Cantleberry lease which will represent the shale break between the Cantleberry A'' and B'' sands. The last 3-dimensional scaled physical model experiment, needed to design the pilot, is ready to go awaiting continuous funding from the DOE.
