The inhibitive effect of apricot gum AG on mild steel in 0.5 M phosphoric acid solution was investigated by potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy EIS, linear polarization resistance and electrochemical noise EN techniques. The inhibition efficiency increased with increasing AG concentration up to a certain value and decreased with increasing temperature. Polarizat...

P. Frankovský, F. Trebuňa, Faculty of Mechanical Engineering, Technical University of Košice, Slovakia The presented article demonstrates the application of PhotoStress® method in stress analysis of a rotating disc of a constant thickness, which was made of a photoelastic material PS-1A. Isoclinic fringes were observed on the rotating disc using linear polarized light at revolutions 5 000 RPM. ...

Theoretical results are presented for top quarks produced in annihilation of polarized electrons on positrons. Polarization studies for t ¯ t pairs near threshold are free from hadronization ambiguities. This is due to the short lifetime of the top quark. Semileptonic decays are discussed as well as their applications in studying polarization dependent processes involving top quarks. The Green ...

in this paper, we investigate variation of the wavelength, intensity and polarization of the self-assembled inas/gaas quantum dots emission by microphotoluminescence spectroscopy at the liquid helium temperature. the microcavity wafer sample is grown by molecular beam epitaxy (mbe) and chemically etched into the micropillar structure (with elliptical cross section - long and short axis 2µm×1.5µ...

The optical theorem is applied to the process of electron-positron pair creation in the superposition of a nuclear Coulomb and a strong laser field. We derive new representations for the total production rate as two-fold integrals, both for circular laser polarization and for the general case of elliptic polarization, which has not been treated before. Our approach allows us to obtain by analyt...

The polarization dependent momentum distributions of top quarks and their decay products are calculated for t ¯ t production at future e + e − colliders with polarized beams. The Green function formalism is applied to this reaction near energy threshold. The Lippmann–Schwinger equations for the S-wave and P-wave Green functions are solved numerically for the QCD chromostatic potential given by ...

The performance of optical components can have significant dependence on polarization, as with the difference between TE and TM polarization in planar devices like AWG and SOA. Determination of the optical properties for the principal states of polarization can be needed, for instance to determine the polarization dependent wavelength of a bandpass filter. It can be complicated to adjust instru...
