Quantitative Study of Deformations using Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometer (ESPI)
Abstract: AbstractThis paper discusses a research proposal to use temporal phase shifting technique of Electronic Speckle Pattern Interferometer (ESPI) for qualitative and quantitative study of deformations of various kinds. Proposed method for quantitative study is a five step phase shifting algorithm for extraction of phase information from the deformed object. Mechanical and thermal deformations in metallic thin films, metal plates and acoustic deformations are been planned for the study.Keywords: Temporal phase …

Potential Energy Surface for 190-198Hg Isotopes
Abstract: AbstractThe 190-198Hg isotopes with proton number Z=80 and neutron numbers (n) between 110 and 118 in O(6) region were investigated. The potential energy surface has been calculated within the framework using interacting boson model (IBM-1). The contour plot of the potential energy surfaces shows that the interested nuclei are deformed and have γ-unstable-like characters.Keywords: IBM-1, O(6), Hg isotopes, Potential energy surfaceCite this ArticleKahtan A.

A Review of the Use of Super Kamiokande to Determine Atmospheric Neutrino Oscillations
Abstract: AbstractSuper Kamiokande is a large water Cherenkov detectors situated at kamioka town in Japan. Itwas commissioned in 1996 and data taken began since then. The sole aim of this detector is tostudy atmospheric neutrinos, solar neutrinos, sterile neutrinos search for proton decays andother astrophysical sources. Lots of significant progress has been made during recent years inunderstanding of neutrino oscillation. This paper reports some findings of atmosphericneutrino oscillation using data taken …

Kinetics of Non-isothermal Crystallization of Ge-Se-Sn Chalcogenide Glasses
Abstract: AbstractThe calorimetric measurements of as-prepared Ge30-xSe70Snx (8≤x≤20) chalcogenide glasses have been performed using differential scanning calorimetery (DSC) at five different heating rates (10, 15, 20, 25 and 30 Kmin-1) under non-isothermal conditions. These non-isothermal calorimetric measurements have been analyzed in terms of activation energy (Ec), Avrami exponent, dimensionality of growth, frequency factor, Ko(sec-1), half time of crystallization,t1/2(min) and crystallization rate parameter. These kinetic parameters have been evaluated using different theoretical …

Structural Properties of Spin Coated Multilayered Cupric Oxide Thin Films
Abstract: AbstractCuO thin films were spin-coated at 1500, 2200 and 2400 rpm for 30 sec, and subsequently annealed at 150–550°C for 1 h. Multi-layered CuO thin films were prepared including three and five layers. These thin films were characterized using XRD, Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) and polarizing light microscopy. The XRD and FTIR analysis confirmed the crystallization of CuO phase in thin films annealed above 350°C, and corresponding crystallite sizes were …
