Abstract:
<p class="1Body">Absolute and relative atomic mass values are obtained in kg/atom, MeV, C, and u for the chemical elements. The results show that: (i) Absolute atomic mass value is, of course, given by the classical mass formula m = hϑ/c<sup>2</sup>; however, rotational speed per radius ω/r correlates with strain τ on the element’s intrinsic electromagnetic (e-m) transverse radiation to give the coefficient k whose value turns out to be atomic mass unit energy equivalent amu/eV = k = τ/(ω/r)<sup>½</sup>. (ii) Each component of the wave-particle doublet plays unique roles in atomic mass phenomenology; these roles readily account for H atom’s seeming fundamentality and preponderance of internal structures in virtually all particulate matter down to the electron. (iii) The mass constants amu/eV and amu/C are linear correlation coefficients of different dimensions of atomic units; the values are thus not specific to particular elements but obtainable from any element including the electron. (iv) The empirical expression e- = F/N<sub>A</sub> is incorrect; theoretically, charge q = m<sub>r</sub>F = m<sub>abs</sub>N<sub>A</sub>F. The error translates to values of N<sub>A</sub>, m<sub>e</sub>, and e/m<sub>e</sub> that are twenty orders of magnitude lower than theoretical values, e.g., e<sup>-</sup><sub>theor.</sub> = 47.062 C c.f. e<sup>-</sup><sub>lit.</sub> = 1.6022 x 10<sup>-19</sup> C. It is posited that the charge determinants ω and τ, might be suppressed or virtually nullified in an external e-m environment above some threshold voltage. (v) The error reflects also in all empirical E/c<sup>2</sup> values. A comparison of empirical and theoretical quantitative expressions for evaluating gravitational (gm) from electrostatic (E/c<sup>2</sup>) atomic mass shows that the former redeems the inherent error to retrieve proximate gm from E/c<sup>2</sup> value. (vi) Given the current literature E/c<sup>2</sup> values, the electron waveform mass does converge with the photon’s value, i.e., m<sub>w(e) </sub>≅ m<sub>photon</sub>. It is submitted, therefore, that particle physics has already struck matter’s fundamental unit in the photon mass, maybe unknowingly for lack of litmus test.</p>

Abstract:
General tilt grain boundaries can be viewed in terms of small structural units of varying complexity. High-resolution electron microscope (HREM) images of these boundaries in many materials show this repetitive similarity of the atomic structure at the boundary plane. The structure of particular grain boundaries has been examined for several special cases and commonly observed configurations include symmetric tilt grain boundaries and asymmetric tilt grain boundaries with one grain having a prominent, low-index facet. Several different configurations of the boundary structure may possibly occur, even in the same grain boundary. There are thus many possible ways to assemble the basic structural units to form a grain boundary. These structural units and their distribution have traditionally been examined by high-resolution electron microscopy. The images of the projection of the atomic columns (or the tunnels between atomic columns) providing a template for constructing “ball-and-stick ” models of the interface.

Abstract:
Sutton et al and Brokman et al suggested that long period asymmetrical boundary may facet on an atomic scale into short period symmetrical boundaries. This principle was first confirmed in the case of Σ=3 NiSi2(11)1/(15)2 and NiSi2(001)1/(21)2 asymmetrical boundaries in NiSi2 thin film by Chen et al using high resolution TEM. The asymmetrical boundaries contain a mixture of structural units of the (1)1/(11)2 and the (12)1/(12)2 symmetrical boundaries. The structural units of the (1)1/(11)2 is a 6-atom ring, while (12)1/(12)2 boundary has composite 5 and 7-atom rings. This result is consistent with the chain unit model (CUM) proposed by Wang and Vitek which describes the variation of the boundary structure with the inclination of the boundary plane.The principle of CUM was shown to be valid in the Σ=3 NiSi2(11)/(15)Si and NiSi2(21)/(001)Si asymmetrical interfaces. There are four possible atomic faceting structures for an asymmetrical interface. Fig. 1(a) shows the coexistence of two atomic faceting interfacial domains in a NiSi2(11)/(15)Si interface.

Abstract:
Molecular modeling, using both ab initio and semi-empirical methods has been undertaken for a series of dirhodium complexes in order to improve the understanding of the nature of the chemical bonding in this class of homogeneous catalysts. These complexes, with carboxylamidate and carboxylate ligands, are extremely functional metal catalysts used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The X-ray crystallography shows anomalies in the bond angles that have potential impact on understanding the catalysis. To resolve these issues, minimum energy structures of several examples (e.g. Rh2(NHCOCH3)4, Rh2(NHCOCH3)4NC, Rh2(CO2CH3)4, Rh2(CO2CH3)4NC, Rh2(CHO2)4, and Rh2(CHO2)4NC) were calculated using Hatree-Fock and Density Functional Theory/B3LYP with the LANL2DZ ECP (Rh), and cc-pVDZ (all other atoms) basis sets.

Abstract:
In this work, the relationship between grain boundary crystallography and grain boundary atomic structure is examined, using [1 0 0] - symmetric tilt grain boundaries in nickel. The structural unit model is used as a benchmark to evaluate the atomic structure description capacities of an emerging structural descriptor, the local environment representation, which itself is a refinement of the also-emergent Smooth Overlap of Atomic Positions (SOAP) descriptor. We show that the local environment representation encodes both the information of the structural unit model and additional information, such as distortion in the structural units and the arrangement of the structural units at the interface. The use of the local environment representation permits the use of a visualization tool known as SPRING to represent structural similarities between grain boundaries. With the SPRING representation, we produce objective evidence of a relationship between crystallography and atomic structure, at least for [1 0 0] - symmetric tilt grain boundaries.

Les états de Rydberg circulaires possèdent des propriétés singulières dont l'étude théorique et expérimentale fait l'objet de ce mémoire. Dans une première partie, ces états sont décrits à la fois dans le cadre de la théorie semi classique et dans le point de vue habituel de la mécanique quantique. Il est fait largement appel dans cette partie aux symétries dynamiques de l'hydrogène, qui permettent de comprendre fondamentalement comment ces états peuvent être préparés et survivre en présence de champs extérieurs variés. Dans une seconde partie, sont décrites les expériences que nous avons réalisées sur les états circulaires du Lithium en vue d'une mesure très précise de la constante de Rydberg R. Il s'agit essentiellement de la démonstration d'une nouvelle méthode de préparation de ces états, dite "en champs croisés" et de la réalisation d'une spectroscopie micro-onde de transitions entre niveaux circulaires adjacents. Nous décrivons successivement des expériences où l'excitation est impulsionnelle puis continue, ce dernier mode de préparation présentant de multiples avantages pour la mesure de R. Dans la troisième partie, un calcul détaillé des fréquences de transition entre niveaux circulaires du lithium est présenté. Partant du modèle élémentaire de Bohr, l'effet des perturbations de plus en plus fines, tant internes qu'externes à l'atome est pris en compte et évalué avec une précison correspondant à onze chiffres significatifs. La hiérarchie des perturbations à prendre en compte est inhabituelle, puisque les effets externes des champs électriques ou magnétiques appliqués sont plus grands que les effets internes (magnétiques, relativistes, couplage de l'électron de valence au coeur atomique). Le résultat obtenu permet d'envisager la détermination très précise de R à partir du spectre micro-onde expérimental.

Abstract:
Nowadays, an increasing number of computational systems are equipped with heterogeneous compute resources, i.e., following different architecture. This applies to the level of a single chip, a single node and even supercomputers and large-scale clusters. With its impressive price-to-performance ratio as well as power efficiently compared to traditional multicore processors, graphics processing units (GPUs) has become an integrated part of these systems. GPUs deliver high peak performance; however efficiently exploiting their computational power requires the exploration of a multi-dimensional space of optimization methodologies, which is challenging even for the well-trained expert. The complexity of this multi-dimensional space arises not only from the traditionally well known but arduous task of architecture-aware GPU optimization at design and compile time, but it also arises in the partitioning and scheduling of the computation across these heterogeneous resources. Even with programming models like the Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA) and Open Computing Language (OpenCL), the developer still needs to manage the data transfer be- tween host and device and vice versa, orchestrate the execution of several kernels, and more arduously, optimize the kernel code. In this dissertation, we aim to deliver a transparent parallel programming environment for heterogeneous resources by leveraging the power of the MapReduce programming model and OpenCL programming language. We propose a portable architecture-aware framework that efficiently runs an application across heterogeneous resources, specifically AMD GPUs and NVIDIA GPUs, while hiding complex architectural details from the developer. To further enhance performance portability, we explore approaches for asynchronously and efficiently distributing the computations across heterogeneous resources. When applied to benchmarks and representative applications, our proposed framework significantly enhances performance, including up to 58% improvement over traditional approaches to task assignment and up to a 45-fold improvement over state-of-the-art MapReduce implementations.

Abstract:
Au cours de ce travail, nous avons étudié deux types de défauts interfaciaux: domaines d’inversion (DI) et joints de grains (JG) dans des semiconducteurs de structure wurtzite (nitrures- d’éléments III, ZnO et l’hétérostructure ZnO/GaN) en utilisant le MET haute résolution et la modélisation ab initio. Dans le cas des DI, nos analyses théoriques montrent qu'une configuration tête-à-tête avec une séquence d'empilement à l’interface AaBbAa-AcCaA (H4) est la structure la plus stable dans les composés binaires (nitrures et ZnO wurtzites). De plus, un gaz d’électrons (2DEG) ou de trous (2DHG) à 2 dimensions est formé pour les configurations « tête-à-tête » ou queue-à-queue. A l’interface ZnO/GaN, l'observation de MET très haute résolution a confirmé la configuration H4 avec une interface -Zn-O-Ga-N. Notre modélisation théorique a mis en évidence la formation d’un gas de trous à 2 dimensions à cette hétérointerface. Nous avons aussi réalisé l’étude topologique, théorique et par MET des joints de grains de rotation autour de l’axe [0001] dans ces matériaux. Dans le GaN, nous avons trouvé que les plans du joint sont simplement formés par des dislocations de type a déjà connues pour le matériau en couche mince. Par contre, dans ZnO, la théorie topologique est complétement démontrée, et la dislocation [101 ̅0] est une brique de base dans la constitution des joints de grains avec des cycles d’atomes 6-8-4-
In this work, we investigated two kinds of interfacial defects: inversion domain boundaries (IDBs) and grain boundaries (GB) in wurtzite semiconductors (III-nitrides, ZnO and ZnO/GaN heterostructure) using high-resolution TEM and first-principle calculations. For IDBs, theoretical calculation indicated that a head-to-head IDB with an interfacial stacking sequence of AaBbAa-AcCaA (H4) is the most stable structure in wurtzite compounds. Moreover, 2-dimensional electron gas (2DEG) and 2-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) build up in head-to-head and tail-to-tail IDBs, respectively. Considering the IDB at the ZnO/GaN heterointerface, TEM observations unveiled the H4 configuration with a -Zn-O-Ga-N interface. Moreover the theoretical investigation also confirmed stability of this interface along with the corresponding formation of a 2DHG. A detailed topological, TEM and theoretical investigation of [0001] tilt Grain Boundaries (GBs) in wurtzite symmetry has also been carried out. In GaN, it is shown that the GBs are only made of separated a edge dislocations with 4, 5/7 and 8 atoms rings. For ZnO, a new structural unit: the [101 ̅0] edge dislocation made of connected 6-8-4-atom rings is reported for the first time, in agreement with an early theoretical report on dislocations and jogs in the wurtzite symmetry

Full text
Abstract:
I aim to offer an innovative interpretation of Leibniz’s philosophy, first by examining how the various views that make up his ontology of individual substance involve a persistent rejection of atomism in natural philosophy and secondly, by exploring the significance of this rejection in the larger context of Seventeenth-century physics. My thesis is structured as a developmental story, each chapter analyzing the discontinuities or changes Leibniz makes to his views on individuation and atomism from his early to late years. The goal is to illuminate underrepresented views on individuals and atoms throughout Leibniz’s works and thus bring a clearer understanding of his philosophy. I, therefore, argue that the New System of Nature, published towards the end of Leibniz’s middle period (1695), marks an important landmark in his philosophical evolution, a radical terminological and ontological shift in his metaphysics of substance. Once Leibniz elaborates the concept of “simple substance,” the future synonym of “monad,” the problem of individuation of his early and middle years (1663-1686) becomes secondary. The focus changes from what makes substances “individual” to what makes them “simple” and truly “one,” i.e., “metaphysical” atoms. I prove that this shift was marked by a two-tiered critical confrontation: a first, direct confrontation, 1) with Descartes’ physics, through the critique of the notion of extended matter and of Descartes’ principle of individuation through shared motion and, a second confrontation, 2) with different strands of Seventeenth-century atomism, including Cartesian Gérauld de Cordemoy’s quasi-“metaphysical” atomism and its attempt at improving Descartes’ individuating principle. I claim that this double confrontation ultimately led Leibniz to formulate a more fundamental ontology, in terms of the “metaphysical atomism” of his Monadology (1714). My analysis complicates a persistent scholarly assumption in recent Leibniz studies, claiming that, throughout his entire career, Leibniz continued to hold the same fundamental positions on substance, individuation and, implicitly, atoms. Against this type of general continuity thesis, I show that: 1) far from being a constant concern, Leibniz’s interest in what makes substances individual fades towards the end of his life (New Essays 1703, correspondence with Samuel Clarke, 1714); 2) I trace the changing fate of some of Leibniz’s early and middle period views on substance and the individual (the principle of the identity of indiscernibles, space-time as individuating properties) in his late works; and 3) I prove the claim that Leibniz really embraced atomism, either for a short time or all throughout his philosophy is problematic. While he does refer to some sort of atoms during his Paris period (1672-1676), this is insufficient proof of a commitment to atomism. Instead, the episode has to be understood in the broader framework of a bundle of interrelated issues, such as the problem of the cohesion of bodies and the problem of minds or mind-like principles individuating those bodies. Thus, as I show through an analysis of Leibniz’s arguments against atomism in the correspondences with his scientific contemporaries (Christiaan Huyghens 1692-1695, Nicholas Hartsoeker 1706-1714), rejecting physical atomism remains a fundamental and surprisingly constant point of his philosophy.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to sample a number of disparate texts from the early Islamic cultural field to explore the shared grounds or themes that bind them together. The focus of the sampled texts and their analysis is the different relations between God and the real things of this world. The method that is applied in the selection of the texts of this research relies on Pierre Bourdieu’s approach to the study of cultural production. It assumes a relational and dynamic intellectual field which creates interlinked differences and similarities. This is the reason for sampling texts which are assumed to be reasonably marginal to the main cultural establishment. The kalām of the early stage, exemplified by the texts of the Zaydī al-Qāsim al-Rassī and the eastern Ibādīs, is found to emphasise the radical separation between the creator and the created. The development of this relation, which is explored through an intertextual reading of Qurʾānic exegesis, bridges the fissure, between creator and created, through the process of re-interpreting the terms of creation. The act of creation itself becomes an act of transformation, and the objects of creation become eternal ‘non-existent things’ that acquire the quality of existence. In the philosophical works of Jābir Ibn Ḥayyān, the things of this world are also reduced to transformations within the one substance that encompasses the intelligible and the material world. The results of this research show that there is a great degree of diffusion of ideas in this early stage of Islamic culture, from an assumed centre to the margins, and vice versa. The general tendencies in the texts considered reflect, on the one hand, a critique of multiplicity of principles, particularly dualism, and an emphasis on God’s unity, through different interpretations of tawḥīd. On the other hand, the sought unity itself established God’s radical transcendence from the real world, thus leading to another form of dualism dividing the world and the absolute other. The process of opposition to dualism seems to have eventually produced two forms of affirming and defining unity. Both forms define the existent things in terms of substance (jawhar), however, the kalām model expresses it in atomistic terms whilst the alchemical model of Jābir expresses it in terms of a hylomorphic model. One of these redefines the meanings of the existent and the non-existent things in term of subsistence, and the other, develops the idea of a single substance with different gradation in being.

Abstract:
L'objet de cette thèse est la construction d'une chaîne de fréquences pour comparer les fréquences de l'atome d'hydrogène à celle d'un laser He-Ne. stabilisé sur l'iode à 633 nm. Le schéma de la chaîne tire profit de la quasi-coïncidence (à 89 GHz) entre la fréquence d'excitation à deux photons des transitions 2S→8S/D à 778 nm et la différence en fréquence du laser étalon à 633 nm et du laser He-Ne-étalon stabilisé sur le méthane à 3,39 μm. On utilise deux lasers titane-saphir construits au laboratoire, l'un pour l'excitation des transitions atomiques (TS1), l'autre pour la mesure de fréquence (TS2). On réalise, dans un cristal de LiIO3, le mélange des radiations à 778 nm (TS2) et 3,39 μm provenant d'un laser He-Ne auxiliaire construit au laboratoire. La fréquence du.faisceau ainsi synthétisé à 633 nm-est déterminée par battement avec le laser étalon stabilisé sur l'iode. Un battement entre les deux lasers He-Ne (3,39 μm) donne la fréquence du laser He-Ne auxiliaire. La mesure de la fréquence du laser TS1 à partir de celle de TS2 nécessite une source micro-onde à 89 GHz et un dispositif permettant de réaliser le mélange des trois fréquences et la détection du battement obtenu à basse fréquence. La fréquence de la diode Gunn à 89 GHz est déterminée à l'aide d'une chaîne de multiplication de fréquence d'un quartz ultrastable à 90 MHz. Après des essais avec des diodes MIM, nous avons pris une diode Schottky comme dispositif de mélange et de détection. Par cette méthode, nous avons relié pour la première fois une fréquence optique de l'atome d'hydrogène à l'horloge à césium sans utiliser l'interférométrie. Nous en avons déduit la constante de Rydberg qui est le facteur d'échelle des niveaux d'énergie de l'atome d'hydrogène. On ajuste la valeur de cette constante pour faire coïncider les fréquences expérimentales et théoriques. La nouvelle valeur ainsi obtenue est : R∞ = 109 737,315 683 4 (24) cm-1 L'incertitude sur cette valeur est de 2,2 10^-11. Elle approche celle des calculs d'électrodynamique quantique donnant les valeurs théoriques des niveaux d'énergie. Ce résultat, qui est le plus précis à l'heure actuelle, est en bon accord avec celui obtenu à Münich en 1992 sur les transitions 1S-2S et 2S-4D.

Full text
Abstract:
Le 16 novembre 1942, dans le désert du Nouveau-Mexique, J. Robert Oppenheimer suggéra à son homologue militaire, le Général Leslie Groves, que la Los Alamos Ranch School d'Ashley Pond serait une localisation idéale pour l'établissement d'un laboratoire secret où continuer la recherche sur la conception et la construction de la bombe atomique. Cet événement scella le destin du Nouveau-Mexique, surnommé la « terre d'enchantement », qui se vit alors octroyé une nouvelle identité en tant que berceau de l'ère nucléaire. Le laboratoire de Los Alamos a déclenché la troisième colonisation de la région : une conquête scientifique financée par le gouvernement fédéral et entretenue par la course à l'armement avec l'Union Soviétique. Le long du Rio Grande, les installations nées à la suite du Projet Manhattan ont révolutionné l'ordre social, économique et démographique établi dans l'État tout en y produisant des bouleversements environnementaux et culturels. Et pourtant, soixante–dix ans plus tard, le Nouveau-Mexique demeurait l'un des cinq États les plus pauvres du pays malgré son Eldorado nucléaire. Cette thèse évalue l'ambivalence et les multiples facettes de l'héritage du Projet Manhattan au Nouveau-Mexique. En estimant la durabilité et la répartition des profits générés par l'industrie nucléaire en termes d'emplois, d'éducation et de niveau de vie, cette thèse interroge l'étendue réelle des gains perçus par les populations locales grâce à cette révolution vers le nucléaire et la haute technologie, ainsi que l'évolution des coûts socio-économiques et environnementaux qu'il a fallu et qu'il faudra encore payer pour la panacée nucléaire. Depuis l'arrivée des premiers pionniers atomiques à Los Alamos, les populations natives du Nouveau-Mexique (qu'il s'agisse des Indiens pueblos, des villageois hispaniques ou des ranchers anglos) ont dû s'adapter aux changements en dents de scie d'un nouvel ordre reposant sur des fonds fédéraux, eux–mêmes déterminés par la scène politique internationale et ils furent confrontés à une concurrence de plus en plus rude avec les nouveaux arrivants, c'est-à-dire les immigrés du nucléaire venant d'autres États. L'association du pouvoir militaire, du gouvernement et de l'omniprésente confidentialité a renforcé les mécanismes du complexe militaro-industriel et scientifique local, ce qui a maintenu la région dans son statut de colonie interne des États-Unis. Depuis les années 1980, une prise de conscience progressive de la société concernant les conséquences environnementales et sanitaires de la radioactivité a entraîné des réactions antinucléaires au Nouveau-Mexique. Dès lors, de nombreuses voix précédemment restées dans le silence se sont levées pour mettre en évidence une autre vision de l'héritage nucléaire dans l'État. Cette perspective locale des participants les plus modestes, les oubliés de l'avènement de l'ère nucléaire, manque de reconnaissance historique. Par conséquent, l'objectif de cette thèse est d'examiner la relation entre ces Nouveaux-Mexicains et l'industrie nucléaire locale
On November 16, 1942, in the New Mexican desert, J. Robert Oppenheimer suggested to his military counterpart, General Leslie Groves, that Ashley Pond's Los Alamos Ranch School would be an ideal location for the establishment of a secret laboratory to pursue research on the design and construction of the atomic bomb. This event sealed the fate of New Mexico, dubbed the “Land of Enchantment,” which acquired a new identity as the cradle of the nuclear age. The Los Alamos Laboratory paved the way to a third colonization of the area; a scientific conquest funded by the Federal Government and maintained by the arms race with the Soviet Union. Along the Rio Grande, the derivative installations of the Manhattan Project revolutionized the social, economic, and demographic order in the state while introducing environmental and cultural disruptions. And yet, seventy years later, New Mexico was still among the five poorest states in the nation despite its nuclear Eldorado. This thesis assesses the double-edged quality and the multiple facets of the Manhattan Project's legacy in New Mexico. By evaluating the durability and distribution of the benefits entailed by the nuclear industry in terms of jobs, education, and standards of living, this dissertation focuses on the question of the extent to which local populations actually gained from this high-technology revolution, and of the environmental, socio-economic price, which has been and will have to be paid for the nuclear bonanza. Since the settlement of the first atomic pioneers in Los Alamos, the native populations of New Mexico—be they Indian Pueblo dwellers, Hispanic villagers, or Anglo ranchers—have had to adapt to the ups and downs of the new order based on a dependence on federal funds that were, in turn, determined by global politics, and to face an increasingly harsh competition with outsiders, i.e. nuclear immigrants to the state. A combination of military and government power with secrecy built up the mechanism of a local military-industrial and scientific complex, which maintained the region's status as an internal colony of the United States. Since the 1980s, growing public awareness of environmental and health consequences of radioactivity have prompted antinuclear reactions in New Mexico. Thereupon, many previously unheard voices have spoken up to shed a new light on the nuclear heritage in the state. This local perspective of the humblest, forgotten participants in the advent of the nuclear age lacks historical recognition; therefore, the purpose of this dissertation is to address the relations between New Mexicans and the local nuclear industry

Abstract:
AbstractMotivated by his interest in thermodynamics and the emerging quantum mechanics, Otto Stern (1888–1969) launched in 1919 his molecular beam method to examine the fundamental assumptions of theory that transpire in atomic, molecular, optical, and nuclear physics. Stern’s experimental endeavors at Frankfurt (1919–1922), Hamburg (1923–1933), and Pittsburgh (1933–1945) provided insights into the quantum world that were independent of spectroscopy and that concerned well-defined isolated systems, hitherto accessible only to Gedanken experiments. In this chapter we look at how Stern’s molecular beam research came about and review six of his seminal experiments along with their context and reception by the physics community: the Stern-Gerlach experiment; the three-stage Stern-Gerlach experiment; experimental evidence for de Broglie’s matter waves; measurements of the magnetic dipole moment of the proton and the deuteron; experimental demonstration of momentum transfer upon absorption or emission of a photon; the experimental verification of the Maxwell-Boltzmann velocity distribution via deflection of a molecular beam by gravity. Regarded as paragons of thoroughness and ingenuity, these experiments entail accurate transversal momentum measurements with resolution better than 0.1 atomic units. Some of these experiments would be taken up by others where Stern left off only decades later (matter-wave scattering or photon momentum transfer). We conclude by highlighting aspects of Stern’s legacy as reflected by the honors that have been bestowed upon him to date.

Abstract:
AbstractMulti-particle momentum imaging experiments are now capable of providing detailed information on the properties and the dynamics of quantum systems in Atomic, Molecular and Photon (AMO) physics. Historically, Otto Stern can be considered the pioneer of high-resolution momentum measurements of particles moving in a vacuum and he was the first to obtain sub-atomic unit (a.u.) momentum resolution (Schmidt-Böcking et al. in The precision limits in a single-event quantum measurement of electron momentum and position, these proceedings [1]). A major contribution to modern experimental atomic and molecular physics was his so-called molecular beam method [2], which Stern developed and employed in his experiments. With this method he discovered several fundamental properties of atoms, molecules and nuclei [2, 3]. As corresponding particle detection techniques were lacking during his time, he was only able to observe the averaged footprints of large particle ensembles. Today it is routinely possible to measure the momenta of single particles, because of the tremendous progress in single particle detection and data acquisition electronics. A “state-of-the-art” COLTRIMS reaction microscope [4–11] can measure, for example, the momenta of several particles ejected in the same quantum process in coincidence with sub-a.u. momentum resolution. Such setups can be used to visualize the dynamics of quantum reactions and image the entangled motion of electrons inside atoms and molecules. This review will briefly summarize Stern’s work and then present in longer detail the historic steps of the development of the COLTRIMS reaction microscope. Furthermore, some benchmark results are shown which initially paved the way for a broad acceptance of the COLTRIMS approach. Finally, a small selection of milestone work is presented which has been performed during the last two decades.

Abstract:
Two Boiling Water Reactors (BWR) of 210 MWe each at Tarapur Atomic Power Station, Units-1&2 (TAPS-1&2) were commissioned in the year 1969. The safety related civil structures at TAPS had been designed for a seismic coefficient of 0.2g and other structures for 0.1g. The work of seismic re-evaluation of the TAPS-1&2 has been taken up in the year 2002. As two new Pressurized Heavy Water Reactor (PHWR) plants of 540 MWe each, Tarapur Atomic Power Project Units-3&4 (TAPP-3&4), are coming up in the vicinity of TAPS-1&2, detailed geological and seismological studies of the area around TAPS-1&2 are available. The same free-field ground motion as generated for TAPP-3&4 has been used for TAPS-1&2. The seismic re-evaluation of the plant has been performed as per the procedure given in IAEA, Safety Reports Series entitled “Seismic Evaluation of Existing Nuclear Power Plants”, and meeting the various codes & standards, viz., ASME, ASCE, IEEE standards etc. The Safety Systems (SS) and Safety Support Systems (SSS) are qualified by adopting detailed analysis and testing methods. The equipment in the SS and SSS have been qualified by conducting a walkdown as per the procedure given in Generic Implementation Procedure, Dept. of Energy (GIP–DOE), USA. The safety systems include the systems required for safe shutdown of the plant, one chain of decay heat removal and containment of activity. The safety support systems viz., Electrical, Instrumentation & Control and systems other than SS & SSS have been qualified by limited analysis, testing and mostly by following the procedure of walkdown. The paper brings out the details of the work accomplished during seismic re-evaluation of the two units of BWR at Tarapur.

Abstract:
Power dissipation of chip-scale atomic clocks is one of the major design considerations. The largest power dissipation is for temperature control of the vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) and cesium vapor cell. For example, the temperature of the VCSEL and Cs cell have to both be at 70±0.1°C or there will be frequency shift which will ruin the lock of the clock. These temperatures have to be maintained even under a large temperature variation such as −40°C to 50°C. There are three major thermal designs to consider: a) micro-heaters to fine-tune the temperatures of VCSEL and Cs cell, b) use of waste heat from other units to heat the system when outside temperature is low, and c) use of a thermal switch to release any extra waste heat when ambient temperatures are high. These three thermal designs have been incorporated in to a thermal test vehicle, which will be used to develop a thermal management design for the clock. This paper describes the proposed clock design, creation of the thermal test vehicle and development of a bimetallic snap based thermal conduction switch. The switch has been demonstrated to change thermal resistance from 52.9±2.8 K/W when the switch is open to 19.5±1.1 K/W with the switch closed.

Full text
Abstract:
A CANDU core is composed of lots of fuel channels of a pressure tube type which creates an independent flow passage different from that of a LWR. Hence, most of the aging effects for a CANDU’s operating performance originate from a crept pressure tube as its operating years proceed. Since the early 1990’s, Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) and Atomic Energy of Canada Limited (AECL) have cooperated to develop, verify, and demonstrate an advanced CANDU fuel, called a CANFLEX-NU (CANdu FLEXible-Natural Uranium) fuel, which has been specially designed so as to compensate for a deterioration of the heat transfer rate in a crept pressure tube and also to enhance the safety margin of it by a reduction of the maximum linear element power of a fuel bundle. Now, a CANFLEX-NU fuel is ready to be commercialized in a CANDU-6 because its design and demonstration irradiation have been completed in both of Korea and Canada. Recently, some CANDU plants are being refurbished as they are approaching their life time. One of the refurbished CANDU’s is Wolsong Unit 1 in Korea. It has been operated for 25 years and the operating power at the present time is less than 90% of a full power because of a reduction of the margin for the ROP trip set point. The most appropriate way, up-to now, to overcome such a power de-rating due to a crept pressure tube is the introduction of a CANFLEX-NU fuel into a CANDU. Before commercializing a CANFLEX-NU fuel in the Wolsong Units, it was required to estimate the economic benefit analysis for a CANFLEX-NU fuel in the Wolsong Units because the Uranium price at present is very different from that during the development phase of the CANFLEX-NU fuel. The present paper proposes an economic evaluation model for a CANFLEX-NU fuel in the Wolsong Units and its result for a CANFLEX-NU fuel are compared with that for a 37-element fuel. It was found that the introduction of a CANFLEX-NU fuel into the Wolsong units would have economical benefits due to a better operating performance even where it is assumed that the fuel fabrication cost of a CANFLEX-NU fuel is 1.4 times that of a 37-element fuel. Once the final results are obtained, they will be used as one of important parameters to determine the introduction of a CANFLEX-NU fuel in the Wolsong Units, or not.

Abstract:
The energy obtained at nuclear power plants is considered environmentally friendly, so an increase in the number of nuclear power plants is inevitable both in Russia and abroad. But the memory of accidents and incidents at nuclear power plants, their causes and destructive consequences should force all responsible participants in the process to follow the basic principles of defense in depth and safety culture. Analysis of the factors considered in the article indicates that the approach to the implementation of the principle of safety culture on the part of officials of the State Atomic Energy Corporation Rosatom and the world's second operating organization, Rosenergoatom Concern JSC, is subject to emasculation to the greatest extent. This indicates that the lessons of past accidents at nuclear power plants are not fully absorbed in the nuclear industry of the Russian Federation and the existing bureaucratic nihilism in relation to the fulfillment of the requirements of federal norms and rules requires urgent overcoming.

Full text
Abstract:
A new self-excited micro-oscillator is proposed as a velocity reference that could aid the dissemination of nanonewton-level forces that are traceable to the International System of Units (SI). An analog control system is developed to keep the actuation side of the device oscillating sinusoidally with an amplitude that is fairly insensitive to the quality factor. Consequently, the device can be calibrated as a velocity reference in air and used in ultra-high vacuum with a velocity shift of less than one percent. Hence, the calibrated micro-oscillator could be used with electrostatic forces to calibrate cantilevers used for atomic force microscopy (AFM) as SI-traceable force transducers. Furthermore, the calibrated micro-oscillator could potentially be used as an AFM sensor to achieve atomic resolutions on par with those realized in frequency-modulation AFM (FM-AFM) with quartz tuning forks.

Abstract:
Since the French Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) was founded in 1945 to carry out research programs on use of nuclear, and its application France has set up and run various types of installations : research or prototypes reactors, process study or examination laboratories, pilot installations, accelerators, nuclear power plants and processing facilities. Some of these are currently being dismantled or must be dismantled soon so that the DEN, the Nuclear Energy Division, can construct new equipment and thus have available a range of R&D facilities in line with the issues of the nuclear industry of the future. Since the 1960s and 1970s in all its centers, the CEA has acquired experience and know-how through dismantling various nuclear facilities. The dismantling techniques are nowadays operational, even if sometimes certain specific developments are necessary to reduce the cost of operations. Thanks to availability of techniques and guarantees of dismantling program financing now from two dedicated funds, close to 15 B€ for the next thirty years, for current or projected dismantling operations, the CEA’s Nuclear Energy Division has been able to develop, when necessary, its immediate dismantling strategy. Currently, nearly thirty facilities are being dismantled by the CEA’s Nuclear Energy Division operational units with its industrial partners. Thus the next decade will see completion of the dismantling and radioactive clean-up of the Grenoble site and of the facilities on the Fontenay-aux-Roses site. By 2018, the dismantling of the UP1 plant at Marcoule, the largest dismantling work in France, will be well advanced, with all the process equipment dismantled. After an overview of the French regulatory framework, the paper will describe the DD&R strategy, programme and feedback experience inside the CEA’s Nuclear Energy Division and its progress since ICEM 14 in 2011’s conference in Reims.
