Metastable State
It is seen that some of the substances in our environment are stable and some are metastable. The phenomenon of metastability was first proposed by...

Laser-Inducing Extreme Thermodynamic Conditions in Condensed Matter to Produce Nanomaterials for Catalysis and the Photocatalysis
Vaporization from the aluminum target surface, under nanosecond laser irradiation, was evaluated in the framework of the unsteady adiabatic expansion...

Thermodynamics of Epitaxial Layer-Growth
Growth requires some deviation from thermodynamic equilibrium. This chapter outlines the driving force for equilibrium-near growth of a crystal in...

Effect of parameters on picosecond laser ablation of Cr12MoV cold work mold steel
Cr12MoV cold work mold steel, which is a difficult-to-machining material, is widely used in the mold and dye industry. A picosecond pulse Nd:YVO4...

Near-critical nanosecond laser-induced phase explosion on graphite surface
Optical reflectivity, removal rate and ablative recoil pressure magnitudes were measured as a function of laser fluence during high-power UV...

Lower bound on the spectrum of the two-dimensional Schrödinger operator with a δ-perturbation on a curve
We consider the two-dimensional Schrödinger operator with a δ-potential supported by curve. For the cases of infinite and closed finite smooth...

Families c and i of periodic solutions of the restricted problem for μ = 5 × 10−5
We consider the circular planar restricted three-body problem with the mass parameter μ = 5 × 10 −5 . Two families of periodic solutions are...

Two regimes of liquid film flow on a rotating cylinder
A steady flow of a thin film of a viscous incompressible liquid on a rotating cylinder (the cylinder axis is perpendicular to the direction of the...

A Criterion for the Thermodynamic Stability of a Liquid Based on the Wavelet Expansion of the Binary Correlation
The study of local structures based on wavelet expansion has become popular over the last few years [2]. As applied to the theory of a liquid,...

Interaction of detonation and rarefaction waves in aluminum particles dispersed in oxygen
The problem of interaction of a plane detonation wave with an adjacent rarefaction wave is studied on the basis of a mathematical model of detonation...

Microphase separation in multiblock copolymers
The phase diagram of a multiblock copolymer containing domains of coexistence of phases having different superlattice symmetries with a density of...

First-Principles Statistical Mechanics of Semiconductor Alloys and Intermetallic Compounds
A binary substitutional system can exist in 2N configurations that can be formed by occupying any of the N sites of a lattice by either an A or a B...

Strengthening of some spinodal binary and pseudobinary copper alloys
Age hardening and microstructure (TEM) in the Cu-Ni-Sn and Cu-Ti alloys is studied. The annealing curves with a “plateau” and a “double peak” are...

Phase explosion of a metastable fluid
The inevitability of a phase explosion of a liquid under pulsed heating conditions at a rate exceeding 10 8o K/sec follows from the thermodynamics and...

On the Influence of Impurities on Light Scattering at Phase Transitions
A pronounced anomaly of light scattering in the region of a phase transition in the solid state, “opalescence” at the α ⇄ β transition in quartz, was...

Oscillographic study of electrical explosion in copper and gold
An oscilloscope is used to measure electrical resistance as a function of enthalpy in copper and gold during the process of electrical explosion of...
