A new interpretation of the thermoluminescence and isothermal decay of LiF TLD-100

Abstract

Some of the published experimental results on the thermoluminescence and isothermal decay of LiF TLD-100 have been explained on the basis of a continuous uniform trap distribution within a finite range ( Delta E) assuming first-order kinetics. This provides credibility to the results of two rival groups of workers who, in the recent part have severely critized the conclusions of each other in a number of publications.

Comparison of the capillary wave method and pressure tensor route for calculation of interfacial tension in molecular dynamics simulations

“…[22,23] Other methods are applied to MC simulations and base their calculations on density-distribution or on pressures calculated from volume perturbations. [24] However, the primary method for calculating surface tension in MD and MC simulations remains the Kirkwood-Buff method (also known as the pressure tensor route) which is based on the difference between the pressures normal and tangent to the interface. [25] Common MD simulation packages offer the pressure tensor method as part of their internal analysis tools, [26][27][28][29][30] and new computational methods for calculating interfacial tension are often evaluated by checking their results against the pressure tensor route.…”

Structural, Mechanical and Electrical Properties of Nelumbo Nucifera Fibers

“…Lotus fibre, comprising a significant 68% cellulose (Chen et al 2012), was analysed using Xray diffraction (XRD). Six reflections were identified, and their accurate and precise resolution was achieved through the residual peak fitting procedure facilitated by the Peakfit® software (Singh et al 2011). The obtained XRD data is as shown in Figure 1.…”
