Level densities and spin cut-off factors have been investigated within the microscopic approach based on BCS Hamiltonian. In particular the spin cut-off parameters have been calculated at neutron binding energies over a large range of nuclear mass using the BCS theory. The results are compared with their corresponding macroscopic values. It is found that the values of spin cut-off parameter do not increase smoothly with A as expected based on macroscopic theory. Instead, the values of spin cut-off parameter show structures re°ecting the angular momentum of the shell model orbitals near the Fermi energy. The spin cut-off parameter has also been computed from the knowl- edge of nuclear level density, at neutron binding energy, Bn and the average s-wave neutron spacing. The values of spin cut-off parameter are compared with their corresponding values from the model calculations. The in°uence of the isospin in nuclear level density in particular the isospin cut-off parameter has also been investigated and are compared with their corre- sponding spin cut-off parameters.

Gholami, M.; Kildir, M.; Behkami, A. N. (American Physical Society (APS), 2007-04-01)
Level densities and spin cut-off factors have been investigated within the microscopic approach based on the BCS Hamiltonian. In particular, the spin cut-off parameters have been calculated at neutron binding energies over a large range of nuclear mass using the BCS theory. The spin cut-off parameters sigma(2)(E) have also been obtained from the Gilbert and Cameron expression and from rigid body calculations. The results were compared with their corresponding macroscopic values. It was found that the values...
Short and long term variations in the concentrations of gaseous and particulate pollutants in Ankara and assessment of traffic contribution
Genç, Derya Deniz; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal; Department of Chemistry (2005)
Spatial and temporal variations and factors affecting these variations in concentrations of measured parameters at two different groups of stations in Ankara are investigated in this study. The first group consists of three curbside stations that are under the direct influence of traffic emissions, on the other hand, the other group is composed of eight residential stations in which domestic heating is the main emission source. State of air quality in Ankara is determined through comparison with air quality...
Raman bandwidths calculated for the librational ( a -phase) and internal (8, d loc and d phases) modes in solid N 2 using pseudospin-phonon coupling (PS) and energy-fluctuation (EF) models
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Elsevier BV, 2020-10-01)
This study gives the calculation of the Raman bandwidths using the models of the pseudospin-phonon coupling (PS) and energy fluctuation (EF) where the Raman frequency calculated from the molecular field theory, is considered as the order parameter close to the phase transitions in nitrogen. In particular, we study the temperature dependence of the Raman bandwidths and frequency shifts of the Eg librational mode (zero pressure) and the internal modes of and (at various pressures) for the solid nitrogen by ...
Synthetic Design of Polyester Electrolytes Guided by Hydrophobicity Calculations
Yıldırım, Erol; Peretic, Matthew J.; Pasquinelli, Melissa A.; Mathers, Robert T. (American Chemical Society (ACS), 2016-10-25)
Partition coefficients (LogP) help to quantify hydrophobicity, which can be used to guide the design of polymer electrolytes with properties. Thus, this study combined synthetic experiments and modeling to produce polyester electrolytes that solubilize lithium salts. These polyester electrolytes were derived from natural sources and polymerized with different ratios of polyols (diglycerol, glycerol, and diethylene glycol) and citric acid in the presence of lithium salts (LiTf and LiTFSI). The Fisher esterif...
Modeling of flow in a polymeric chromatographic monolith
Koku, Harun; Czymmek, Kirk J.; Schure, Mark R.; Lenhoff, Abraham M. (Elsevier BV, 2011-06-03)
The flow behavior of a commercial polymeric monolith was investigated by direct numerical simulations employing the lattice-Boltzmann (LB) methodology. An explicit structural representation of the monolith was obtained by serial sectioning of a portion of the monolith and imaging by scanning electron microscopy. After image processing, the three-dimensional structure of a sample block with dimensions of 17.8 mu m x 17.8 mu m x 14.1 mu m was obtained, with uniform 18.5 nm voxel size. Flow was simulated on th...
