The structure and properties of cold-rolled strips with a thickness of 3 mm from an experimental aluminum alloy 1580 with a lower scandium content of 0.03% (wt.) relative to the grade of the aluminum ...alloy and a 5083 similar alloy without scandium were studied. Ingots obtained at the laboratory installation of semicontinuous casting of the foundry department of the Siberian Federal University (Siberian Federal University, Russia, Krasnoyarsk) were used. The preparation of ingots for rolling included milling up to sizes of 40 × 100 × 145 mm and annealing according to a two-stage mode: at a temperature of 350 °C for 3 h (first stage) and at a temperature of 425 °C for 4 h (second stage). Hot rolling was carried out in the laboratory of the Department of Metal Forming at the Siberian Federal University at a temperature of 450 °C on a two-roll hot rolling mill with a roll diameter of 330 mm and a barrel length of 520 mm to a thickness of 5 mm, which corresponded to a total reduction of 88% with a single reduction of 2–5%. For cold rolling, a two-roll sheet rolling mill with a roll diameter of 200 mm and a barrel length of 400 mm grade LS 400 AUTO was used. Rolling was carried out to a thickness of 3 mm with a single reduction of 2–5%, and then the strip was annealed. The results of determining the mechanical properties by tension by the universal LFM400 machine showed that with an increase in the annealing temperature in the range from 250 to 350 °C for 3 h, ultimate tensile strength of the cold-rolled strips of aluminum alloy 1580 decreases from 385 to 365 MPa. For aluminum alloy 5083, a decrease in this strength characteristic is also observed from 345 to 320 MPa. A decreasing tendency with increasing annealing temperature was also observed for the conditional yield strength

for strips of alloy 1580 were higher than for alloy 5083 by 35–40 MPa, which amounted to 14–17% The values of the plastic properties, for which the value of the elongation to failure was analyzed, were close throughout the range of annealing temperatures for both alloys. The results of the analysis of micro- and fine structure allowed to conclude that an increase in the strength properties of cold-rolled and annealed sheets from the experimental alloy 1580, compared with alloy 5083, is a consequence of the addition of scandium in the experimental alloy 1580, which leads to an increase in the temperature of recrystallization of the alloy, preserving it contains a subgrain structure and dispersion hardening caused by precipitation of Al

The COMPASS Collaboration at CERN has measured diffractive dissociation of 190 GeV/c pions into the π(-)π(-)π(+) final state using a stationary hydrogen target. A partial-wave analysis (PWA) was ...performed in bins of 3π mass and four-momentum transfer using the isobar model and the so far largest PWA model consisting of 88 waves. A narrow peak is observed in the f0(980)π channel with spin, parity and C-parity quantum numbers J(PC)=1(++). We present a resonance-model study of a subset of the spin-density matrix selecting 3π states with J(PC)=2(++) and 4(++) decaying into ρ(770)π and with J(PC)=1(++) decaying into f0(980)π. We identify a new a1 meson with mass (1414(-13)(+15)) MeV/c2 and width (153(-23)(+8)) MeV/c2. Within the final states investigated in our analysis, we observe the new a1(1420) decaying only into f0(980)π, suggesting its exotic nature.
The article summarizes the experience of adapting Russian CAD systems in the working conditions of small enterprises in the engineering sector. Computer-aided design combines the following stages: ...design, technological and engineering analysis. Each of the sections acts as an independent one, but the transition to the next step is completely based on the previous one. Adaptation of CAD packages in small enterprises includes filling in databases on completed projects, parts, components and components of the engineering sector, the distribution of access rights, the creation of working archives, as well as the available equipment and accessories.

The article describes the basic models laid down in the second version of the EUCLID/V2 integrated code developed for carrying out end-to-end analysis of severe accidents in liquid metal cooled ...reactors. Brief information about the basic analogs of the code is given. Unlike the first version of the code, its second version includes additional tools for analyzing design-basis and beyond-design-basis accidents involving fuel pin, fuel assembly, and reactor core failures. To this end, the code is supplemented with additional modules using which it is possible to calculate fuel rod tightness failure as a consequence of its melting, escape of fission products into the coolant, their transport over the circuit, and release into the nuclear power plant rooms. The code also incorporates modules for calculating the core failure processes. Special attention is paid to the physical models for calculating the core materials' melting processes, motion of the produced melt, its interaction with the coolant and with other materials, and propagation of fission materials. For calculating the core failure processes, a multicomponent 3D model has been implemented. The methods used for calculating heat transfer and friction between the components are based on well-proven analytical and empirical relations for determining the heat transfer and friction coefficients. The coefficients presented in the article also depend on the obtained multicomponent flow motion regime and the type of components (metal and ceramics). The algorithms governing joint operation of the thermomechanical, thermal-hydraulic, neutronics, and the fuel rod thermal failure module are described. Emphasis is placed on data exchange methods in the course of an accident in the reactor. The approaches used for calculating the transport of fission products in the coolant and in the NPP rooms are presented.
For the first time, an experimentally measured seed pulse gain of about 2 cm−1 allows possibilities in the scaling power of such a femtosecond laser system in terawatts. The concept of a subterawatt ...power level hybrid femtosecond mid-IR (4-5 μm) laser system, based on a weak pulse from an optical parametric mid-IR seeder that is amplified in chalcogenide monocrystalline Fe2+:ZnSe, to gain medium has been proposed and designed. The method and approach for optimizing the choice of nonlinear medium, its length, and the required light intensity for the efficient non-linear self-compression of an ultrashort pulse has also been proposed and considered.
A semi-inclusive measurement of charged hadron multiplicities in deep inelastic muon scattering off an isoscalar target was performed using data collected by the COMPASS Collaboration at CERN. The ...following kinematic domain is covered by the data: photon virtuality Q2>1 (GeV/c)2, invariant mass of the hadronic system W>5 GeV/c2, Bjorken scaling variable in the range 0.003<x<0.4, fraction of the virtual photon energy carried by the hadron in the range 0.2<z<0.8, and square of the hadron transverse momentum with respect to the virtual photon direction in the range 0.02 (GeV/c)2<PhT2<3 (GeV/c)2. The multiplicities are presented as a function of PhT2 in three-dimensional bins of x, Q2, z and compared to previous semi-inclusive measurements. We explore the small-PhT2 region, i.e. PhT2<1 (GeV/c)2, where hadron transverse momenta are expected to arise from nonperturbative effects, and also the domain of larger PhT2, where contributions from higher-order perturbative QCD are expected to dominate. The multiplicities are fitted using a single-exponential function at small PhT2 to study the dependence of the average transverse momentum ⟨PhT2⟩ on x, Q2 and z. The power-law behavior of the multiplicities at large PhT2 is investigated using various functional forms. The fits describe the data reasonably well over the full measured range.
We have performed the most comprehensive resonance-model fit of π−π−π+ states using the results of our previously published partial-wave analysis (PWA) of a large data set of diffractive-dissociation ...events from the reaction π−+p→π−π−π++precoil with a 190 GeV/c pion beam. The PWA results, which were obtained in 100 bins of three-pion mass, 0.5<m3π<2.5 GeV/c2, and simultaneously in 11 bins of the reduced four-momentum transfer squared, 0.1<t′<1.0 (GeV/c)2, are subjected to a resonance-model fit using Breit-Wigner amplitudes to simultaneously describe a subset of 14 selected waves using 11 isovector light-meson states with JPC=0−+, 1++, 2++, 2−+, 4++, and spin-exotic 1−+ quantum numbers. The model contains the well-known resonances π(1800), a1(1260), a2(1320), π2(1670), π2(1880), and a4(2040). In addition, it includes the disputed π1(1600), the excited states a1(1640), a2(1700), and π2(2005), as well as the resonancelike a1(1420). We measure the resonance parameters mass and width of these objects by combining the information from the PWA results obtained in the 11 t′ bins. We extract the relative branching fractions of the ρ(770)π and f2(1270)π decays of a2(1320) and a4(2040), where the former one is measured for the first time. In a novel approach, we extract the t′ dependence of the intensity of the resonances and of their phases. The t′ dependence of the intensities of most resonances differs distinctly from the t′ dependence of the nonresonant components. For the first time, we determine the t′ dependence of the phases of the production amplitudes and confirm that the production mechanism of the Pomeron exchange is common to all resonances. We have performed extensive systematic studies on the model dependence and correlations of the measured physical parameters.

The main characteristics of the COMPASS experimental setup for physics with hadron beams are described. This setup was designed to perform exclusive measurements of processes with several charged ...and/or neutral particles in the final state. Making use of a large part of the apparatus that was previously built for spin structure studies with a muon beam, it also features a new target system as well as new or upgraded detectors. The hadron setup is able to operate at the high incident hadron flux available at CERN. It is characterised by large angular and momentum coverages, large and nearly flat acceptances, and good two and three-particle mass resolutions. In 2008 and 2009 it was successfully used with positive and negative hadron beams and with liquid hydrogen and solid nuclear targets. This paper describes the new and upgraded detectors and auxiliary equipment, outlines the reconstruction procedures used, and summarises the general performance of the setup.
