Abstract:
AbstractWe investigated the phylogenetic relationships in the cyanolichen family Placynthiaceae to test the current generic delimitations, where the monotypic Collolechia is currently accepted as distinct, based on differences in ascospores, ascus apex characteristics and the leprose thallus. Bayesian and maximum likelihood phylogenetic analyses of two sequence marker datasets confirmed that Collolechia caesia is nested within Placynthium, and should be called Placynthium caesium (Fr.) Jatta. We reassessed the spore and ascus characteristics and showed that Placynthium caesium falls well within the variation in Placynthium and is thus yet another example of a species that differs from close relatives by its crustose-leprose thallus structure.

Abstract:
Abstract The phase diagrams of the binary systems of non-mesomorphic components such as caesium-mag-nesium, caesium-calcium and caesium-barium butyrates have been studied by differential thermal analysis and hot stage polarization microscopy. Smectic liquid crystals are found in some composition ranges of the binaries with calcium and barium butyrates. The liquid crystal appearance in these systems is explained by the exhibition of latent mesomorphism of caesium butyrate. Glasses are obtained in all systems studied, the formation of vitreous optical anisotropic mesophase being revealed only for binary from caesium and barium butyrates.

Abstract:
Cliff-dwelling plant species are highly specialized and adapted to a vulnerable, fragmented, and are mostly endemic, narrowly-distributed and threatened. As a contribution to the conservation efforts of endemic cliff-dwelling species, this study provides an overview of the effects of habitat loss on the abundance and distribution of Pachyphytum caesium (Crassulaceae) due to human disturbances. To achieve this objective, we first conducted a retrospective analysis from 2003–2013 to assess the effects of land use change on the abundance of P. caesium. Secondly, we estimate the abundance and distribution of P. caesium throughout the study area, as well as analyze the effect of rock-climbing activities on the density and population structure of P. caesium. The results suggest differences in population abundance among sites is due to the adverse effects of habitat loss. P. caesium presents a very restricted distribution with small and fragmented populations. In addition, guava agriculture has a significant impact on the chemical soil properties of the hillsides, causing a significant effect on the occurrence of P. caesium, while sport activities remove both the soil and the plants from the cliffs. According to the results, P. caesium is classified as a plant species with extremely small populations (PSESP), and it is highly vulnerable to habitat disturbance. Its conservation is thus a priority to ensure its permanence.

Abstract:
The crystal structures of Cs2S2O7 at 120 and 273 K have been determined from X-ray single-crystal data. Caesium disulfate represents a new structure type with a uniquely high number of independent formula units at 120 K: In one part caesium ions form a tube surrounding the disulfate ions, [Cs8(S2O7)6+] n ; in the other part a disulfate double-sheet sandwiches a zigzagging caesium ion chain, [Cs2(S2O7)6−] n . Caesium disulfate shows an isostructural order–disorder transition between 230 and 250 K, where two disulfate groups become partially disordered above 250 K. The Cs+-ion arrangement shows a remarkable similarity to the high-pressure RbIV metal structure.

Abstract:
This thesis describes an experimental study of superelastic electron scattering from the 6^2P_3/2 state of caesium. The present status of electron-atom collision studies is initially reviewed and the motivation behind the current work is then presented. A description of the theoretical framework is subsequently provided in the context of the present experimental study, followed by an overview of the several theoretical approaches for describing electron-atom interactions which are currently available. The apparatus and experimental setup used throughout the project are also described in detail. Technical specifications and data are provided, including diagrams (where appropriate) for a laser frequency locking system, electron gun and spectrometer, atomic beam source and data acquisition system. The experimental procedures are explained and discussed, including a detailed analysis of the optical pumping process required to excite the atomic target. A substantial component of this project was to address several potential sources of systematic error and to reduce these wherever possible. All of the errors and uncertainties relevant to the experiment are discussed in chapter 5. In chapter 6 the results of the present superelastic electron scattering experiments are reported for incident electron energies of 5.5eV, 8.5eV and 13.5eV, corresponding to superelastic electron energies of 7eV, 10eV and 15eV. These results are presented as three reduced Stokes parameters, P1, P2, P3 and a coherence parameter, P+ . For comparison, predictions from a number of currently available theories are presented alongside the experimental results. Finally, conclusions are drawn on this work in the context of the current status of electron-atom scattering from alkali-metals.

Abstract:
We have obtained spectra of 10 vibrational bands of the Cs2 (2)3u ← ϰ3+9 system. The molecules were formed in a supersonic free jet expansion, and were excited by light from a single mode CW dye laser. The total laser induced fluorescence was measured at 90° to the incident light and molecular beam, using a photomultiplier. Using a slit system to image a selected part of the interaction region, we have reduced the Doppler width to about 350MHz. We have been able to resolve the discrepancy between the different vibrational band positions given in two previous papers. Our vibrational bands show broad rotational contours, but we have not been able to resolve individual rotational lines. We have also obtained rotationally resolved spectra of the bandhead region of 22 vibrational bands of the Β19 ← X1+u system. We found that the frequencies of the bandheads agreed with the bandhead positions deduced from the Dunham coefficients of a previous work. We have developed a theoretical model of the rotational structure and intensity distribution, taking into account optical pumping and the small solid angle subtended by the detector. By fitting this model to the experimental spectrum of the v' = 3,u∿ = 0 band using least squares optimization, we were able to extract rotational constants and line positions. We found that these line positions were in good agreement with those from the previous work. We have discussed how such spectroscopic data may be used in a determination of the s-wave scattering length of caesium, and we have reviewed the validity of the scattering length and other pararneterisations of low energy Cs-Cs interactions.

Full text
Abstract:
State-insensitive traps are an important tool for precision spectroscopy. In these traps both the ground and excited state of the relevant atomic transition are shifted by the same amount. To obtain state-insensitive trapping, a specific trapping wavelength - called the "magic wavelength" - must be used. This thesis describes state-insensitive trapping of caesium atoms, as realised by using a trapping laser beam at the magic wavelength of 935.6 nm. Two different experimental setups were realised and characterised. The first set of experiments provided the characterisation of a singlewell state-insensitive trap, produced by using the laser beam from a Tisapphire laser. The trap lifetime was determined as a function of the trap depth, with the largest lifetime of 203 ms measured for a trap depth of 2.4 mK. Further improvement in the trap lifetime was obtained by applying a depumper laser beam, which prepared the atoms in the lower ground state. This suppresses hyperfine changing collisions, and the lifetime was increased to 3.6 s as a result. Ultimately, the lifetime was limited by the pointing instability of the dipole trap beam and the background gas collisions. A second experimental setup was then realised, to reduce the background gas collisions, which is the limitation of lifetime in the first setup. Furthermore, the imaging system was upgraded to reduce the background noise, and a MOPA system was used to produce the state-insensitive trap. In a second set of experiments, a single-well trap and a 1D optical lattice were compared to evaluate the suppression of two-body collisions in the 1D lattice case.

Abstract:
In case of a severe accident in a light water reactor, iodine is one of the most important fission products in the context of reactor safety because of its significant total fuel inventory, high specific activity and radiotoxicity. Consequently, understanding its behavior under severe accident transient conditions is a major point in the optimization of the accident management and mitigation. An experimental study has been launched at VTT investigating the behavior of iodine on primary circuit surfaces during a severe nuclear accident. The paper presents results obtained from the heating of metallic cadmium and caesium iodide in a crucible at temperature below 400°C under three different atmospheres. Aerosols and gaseous species released from the reaction crucible were sampled at 150°C on filters and liquid scrubbers and analyzed with HR-ICP-MS. At first, experiments were conducted with one precursor (cadmium or caesium iodide). It was observed that cadmium is predominantly present as aerosol in all atmospheres but represents less than 1% of mass what has been recovered from the facility leaching. To the contrary, caesium iodide experiment showed that sampled iodine exists mainly as gaseous species. By comparison to one-precursor studies, a change in the behavior of element was noticed when cadmium was added to caesium iodide. Different observations let to suggest a reaction between caesium iodide and cadmium in the crucible. The reaction would lead to the formation of compound made of cadmium and iodine in condensed phase below 150°C. More gaseous iodine was found from the sampling line with Ar/H2O/H2 atmosphere than in Ar/H2O atmosphere, suggesting that the cadmium is more reactive toward iodine in hydrogen-free atmosphere.

Abstract:
The requirement for on-line and in-situ monitoring of analytes in process and effluent streams and in ground waters has become increasingly more important in recent years. We therefore describe the development of the transduction element for a fully automated online instrument for the detection of caesium. The sensor layer for this instrument employs an Ion Selective Conductimetric microsensor (ISCOM) as the detector. This is based upon a plasticized polymeric membrane incorporating a selective ionophore, overlaying two interdigitated microelectrode arrays. A direct relationship has been observed between the bulk conductance (as determined by the microelectrodes) of the ionophore loaded membrane and the concentration of the primary ions in solution. Caesium selective ISCOMs were prepared using a ion selective membrane containing the commercially available ionophore Calix[6]arene-hexaacetic acid hexaethyl ester, polyvinylchloride (PVC) and plasticiser Nitrophenylether (NPOE). Methods of ion selective membrane deposition have been investigated in order to obtain a maximal response. The relative levels of membrane components have also been varied in order to further enhance the ISCOM reponse. We also present preliminary data concerning the caesium selectivity with respect to a range of possible interferents, including rubidium.

The facility comprised of nine interconnected containment boxes operated from behind a seven-inch lead wall using tongs. Viewing was through lead glass windows. After operations had ceased the facility had deteriorated due to radiation damage. The plastic ventilation system and transfer tunnels between the boxes had collapsed. Some of the viewing windows had also become crazed preventing direct viewing into the boxes. Man entry into the facility was not possible due to the high doserates. The facility contained in the order of 150TBq (4000Ci) of activity with initial ambient doserates in the facility circa 5S v/h γ. There was no acceptable route for transfer of waste out of the facility. The facility was expected to continue to deteriorate further. The project started with an options study in 1993 and was followed on with detailed planning, design and build of bespoke equipment and installing it, followed by the decommissioning operations beginning in 1997. The facility was adjacent to other fully operational facilities less than 1/2 metre away. The equipment designed and built included: • Telerobotic System; • Remote Waste Posting Facility; • New Primary Ventilation System; • Secondary Containment, with its own ventilation system; • Maintenance Facility for repairs to the Telerobotic System. The equipment was successfully deployed and used to size reduce the total contents of the facility and the fibreglass containment boxes themselves. 2300kg of ILW was packed remotely into 14litre waste cans and then remotely posted out for safe storage. The doserates on the waste cans was up to 30S v/h γ. The remaining structure was then decontaminated remotely. When this work was completed in 2001, approximately 150TBq of activity was removed, which was 99.9% of the total activity in the facility. The ambient doserate in the facility was then reduced to 1–3mSv/h allowing man entry into the facility to complete the decommissioning. This is a significant achievement for robotic decommissioning. After a year of manual decommissioning and dismantling the ambient doserate in the facility was reduced to less than 10μSv/h and loose activity levels to less than 0.1Bq/cm2. The dose received by the team during remote decommissioning was 30man mSv over a four year period. This included 12man mSv for maintenance of the Telerobotic System. The team received a similar figure of 30man mSv during manual decommissioning operations but over a one year period.
