摘要:Background: The twist of bent crystal is a common problem of sagittal focusing monochromators.In Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility(SSRF),one of monochromators has an unfocused beam profile because of crystal twist.Purpose: In order to amend the twist problem and get theoretical understanding for further design optimization,a study on the mechanism of crystal twist has been developed.Methods: Finite Element Analysis(FEA) models considering anisotropic effect of crystal were constructed to study some common factors,i.e.crystal orientation,clamping method,stiffening ribs and asymmetric clamping on the bent crystal profile.Results: The simulation result shows that among those factors,asymmetric clamping is the main reason causing the crystal twist while crystal orientation is also important.Clamping method is a factor that restricts the asymmetric clamping to a certain scale.Conclusions: For optimizing the system,asymmetric clamping should be controlled and crystal should be cut in a particular orientation.

摘要:Background: With the development of high energy physics,high performance of electron linear accelerator is required for large collider,FEL and high brightness synchrotron radiation light source.Structure asymmetry of single coupler destroys the symmetry of field distribution in coupled cavity,which reduces the quality of beam.Purpose: Optimize the asymmetry of field distribution in coupled cavity and improve the quality of beam.Methods: The simulation designs are made for single offset coupler,double symmetry coupler and the new coupler loaded by dielectric rods at X band by using CST microwave studio code.Results: The results show that the distribution of field in coupled cavity is better and all particles almost locate at the center of beam hole after beam passing through the coupler loaded by dielectric rods.The energy spread has also been significantly improved.Conclusions: The coupler loaded by dielectric rods can optimize the asymmetry of field distribution in coupled cavity and improve the quality of beam.
摘要:Background: The firing techniques of producing underglaze copper red porcelain emerged in the Yuan dynasty and reached its maturity during the Ming and Qing Dynasties in Jingdezhen city.The technique of producing underglaze red porcelain was sensitive to the firing temperature and atmosphere,so it was very hard to produce and also difficult to display red color under the surface successfully.Purpose & Methods: The micro SR-XRF technique was employed to analysis a piece of sherd of underglaze copper red porcelain of early Ming dynasty.The Chemical compositions of glaze and color areas were presented,and the elemental contents in different color areas were obtained by using line-scanning techniques.Results: Some elements such as As and Pb were contained in raw materials,and the content of Cu had obviously increased with the color changing from gray to red.The results indicated that the nature mineral possibly used as the pigment for underglazed copper red porcelain coloration,and the color appearance also depends on the amount of copper in the pigments contained.Conclusions: This paper presents the advantage of the synchrotron radiation XRF technology and contributes to the science evidences for the Chinese ancient porcelain handcraft research.

摘要:Background: Rotating Gantry is widely used in proton therapy due to its small radiation damage toward the normal tissue around the tumor.Proton therapy gantry optics which plays an important role in rotating gantry is under design in Shanghai Advanced Proton Therapy Facility(APTRON).Purpose: To generate a circular beam profile at iso-center while the gantry rotates with different angles.Methods: Different gantry optics matching techniques are used to calculate the beam optics.These methods include the round-beam method(RBM) or not in the front of vacuum window,and use RBM at iso-center.The simulations of beam profile at iso-center after the beam passing through nozzle and body tissue are carried out with Geant4 software.Results: The beam profile at iso-center can be taken as similar among three cases,and there is slight improvement using RBM.Conclusions: The designed proton therapy gantry optics is intensive to the rotation angle and is applicable for the real application.
摘要:Background: Ramie fiber is a kind of natural polymer material with abundant resources and low price,which has been widely applied in textile.Ramie textiles possess many good qualities,such as air permeability,sweat conductivity and antibacterial ability,but the high crystallinity of ramie fiber gives rise to bad spinning property,small extensibility and low chromaticity which restrict its further application.Purpose: In order to reduce the crystallinity of ramie fiber,the electron beam was directly utilized to irradiate ramie fiber.Methods: Ramie fiber was irradiated by electrons with the irradiation doses from 0 to 2 000 kGy,and the irradiated ramie fiber was characterized by XRD and FT-IR.The crystallinity and the crystallinity index of ramie fiber were analyzed,and the irradiation effect was discussed.Results: The crystallinity and the crystallinity index of ramie fiber decrease with the increasing of irradiation doses and the number of-C O increases with the increasing of irradiation doses.Conclusions: The variation behavior of the crystallinity and the crystallinity index of ramie fiber with electron irradiation dose ranging from 0 to 2 000 kGy is got.It is shown that the crystallinity and the crystallinity index of ramie fiber may be effectively reduced by using electron beams irradiation,but also the required crystallinity of ramie fiber in its application can be achieved by controlling the electron beams irradiation doses.

摘要:Background: There are three methods for determination of 210Pb radioactivity concentration in environmental water.One is detecting rays of 210Bi guided by the EJT 859-1994,one is detecting rays of 210Po for 210Pb radioactivity,and the other is using gamma ray spectrometer to determinate the radioactivity of210Pb.But the first method can not give an exact recovery rate of210Pb,the second one is a time-consuming process,and the third one is unable to detect 210Pb in water samples because of its detection limit.This paper describes a method of rapid determination of 210Pb in environmental water with the anion exchange.Purpose: To determine the radioactivity of 210Pb in water samples rapidly.Methods: The stable Pb carrier is added to the water samples for the recovery rate in the chemical and physical process.210Pb and Pb carrier in the water samples are adsorbed and concentrated by Fe(OH)3co-precipitation undergoing heating.210Pb and its carrier are isolated from most interference by an anion exchange.The PbSO4 precipitation has been purified via being precipitated for three times.The PbSO4 precipitation has been stored in the environmental temperature for one month.And then,the rays of 210Bi and the daughter of 210Pb are detected to determine the radioactivity concentration of 210Pb.Results: This method provides a stable and reliable result and costs less time than the method that detects rays of 210Po for 210Pb radioactivity.Conclusions: The method for rapid determination of 210Pb is a practical and reliable method and used to analyze water samples in Yunnan province.
