The growth of pseudomorphically strained GaAs1 ySby layers with high Sb-mole fractions of yX0.35 are desired on GaAs substrates for making lasers and detectors in the mid-infrared range. The effect of gas-phase precursor chemistry on the strained-layer Sbincorporation efficiency in metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) was determined using four combinations of ethyland methylGa and Sb precur...

densities and viscosities of binary mixtures of methyl tert-butyl ether (mtbe) with 1-alkanols include 1-butanol, or +1-pentanol, or +1-hexanol, or +1-heptanol were measured as a function of composition from 293.15 to 308.15 k at atmospheric pressure. the temperatures studied were 293.15, 298.15, 303.15 and 308.15 k. the experimental results have been used to calculate the viscosity deviation d...

The Cassini-Huygens Probe Gas Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (GCMS) determined the composition of the Titan atmosphere from ~140km altitude to the surface. After landing, it returned composition data of gases evaporated from the surface. Height profiles of molecular nitrogen (N2), methane (CH4) and molecular hydrogen (H2) were determined. Traces were detected on the surface of evaporating meth...

The dual-pump coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy (CARS) method was used to measure temperature and the absolute mole fractions of N2, O2 and H2 in a supersonic non-reacting fuel-air mixing experiment. Experiments were conducted in NASA Langley Research Center’s Direct Connect Supersonic Combustion Test Facility. Under normal operation of this facility, hydrogen and air burn to increase the...

This study aimed to investigate the adsorption of CH4, CO2, H2S at a temperature of 298.15 K and pressurerange of 0.1 to 30 atm, and compare the results with experimental data for MIL-47 using GCMC. Themaximum CH4, CO2 and H2S adsorptions were 3.6, 10.45, and 12.57 mol.kg-1, respectively. In addition, theselectivity for binary mixtures of CH4/CO2 and CH4/H2S was calculated. Th...

The effects of fuel and air stream dilution (ASD) with carbon dioxide on the suppression of normal and microgravity laminar methane–air partially premixed coflow jet flames were experimentally and numerically investigated. Experiments were conducted both in our normal-gravity laboratory and at the NASA Glenn Research Center 2.2 s drop tower. Measurements included flame topology and liftoff heig...

Jagla ramp particles, interacting through a ramp potential with two characteristic length scales, are known to show in their bulk phase thermodynamic and dynamic anomalies, similar to what is found in water. Jagla particles also exhibit a line of phase transitions separating a low density liquid phase and a high density liquid phase, terminating in a liquid-liquid critical point in a region of ...

tubal ectopic hydatidiform mole is an uncommon but very important complication of pregnancy. the clinical manifestation is the same as ectopic pregnancy and in all of the cases management was the same as tubal ectopic pregnancy. we present a case of tubal ectopic pregnancy that after laparotomy and salpingectomy, pathologic examination reported hydatidiform mole within ectopic gestational tissu...

The production of the fire suppressant CF3Br has been banned, and finding a replacement with all of its desirable properties is proving difficult. Iron pentacarbonyl has been found to be up to several orders of magnitude more effective than CF3Br, but it is flammable and highly toxic. Ferrocene [Fe(C5H5)2], which is much less toxic and flammable than Fe(CO)5, can also be used to introduce iron ...
