Laser-induced features at titanium implant surface in vacuum ambience
(Optical and Quantum Electronics, 2016)
Interaction of a TEA CO2 laser with a titanium implant in vacuum (air pressure 0.1 mbar) was studied. The laser operates at 10: 6 mu m with pulse duration of 100 ns (FWHM). The surface alternations were studied at the ...
Fructose-rich diet induces gender-specific changes in expression of the renin-angiotensin system in rat heart and upregulates the ACE/AT1R axis in the male rat aorta
(Journal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2016)
Introduction: The cardiovascular renin-angiotensin system (RAS) could be affected by gender and dietary regime. We hypothesized that male rats will be more susceptible to activation of RAS in the heart and aorta, as a ...
Ab initio calculations of the structure, energetics and stability of AunTi (n=1-32) clusters
(Computational and Theoretical Chemistry, 2016)
The stability and structure of titanium doped gold clusters (AunTi; n = 1-32) are studied by density functional theory calculations, as implemented in the first principles code SIESTA. The exchange and correlation effects ...
The Impact of Radiation on Semiconducting Characteristics of Monocrystalline Silicon and Germanium
(Nuclear technology and radiation protection, 2016)
The paper examines the effects of radiation on the electrical characteristics of monocrystalline silicon and germanium. Samples of monocrystalline silicon and germanium are irradiated under controlled laboratory conditions ...

Synthesis of Highly Porous Al2O3-YAG Composite Ceramics
(Science of Sintering, 2016)
Al2O3-YAG composite was obtained by sintering of porous Al2O3 preforms infiltrated with water solution of aluminium nitrate nonahydrate, Al(NO3)(3)center dot 9H(2)O and yttrium nitrate hexahydrate, Y(NO3)(3)center dot ...
On Improving Accuracy of Finite-Element Solutions of the Effective-Mass Schrodinger Equation for Interdiffused Quantum Wells and Quantum Wires
(Communications in Theoretical Physics, 2016)
We use the Galerkin approach and the finite-element method to numerically solve the effective-mass Schrodinger equation. The accuracy of the solution is explored as it varies with the range of the numerical domain. The ...
Removal of Cs Ions from Aqueous Solutions by Using Matrices of Natural Clinoptilolite and its Safe Disposal
(Science of Sintering, 2016)
The possibility to use natural zeolite - clinoptilolite as a host material for radioactive Cs immobilization has been investigated. Cs-exchanged form of clinoptilolite which was prepared by treatment of clinoptilolite ...
The influence of multiple optical reflexions on the photoacoustic frequency response
(Optical and Quantum Electronics, 2016)
The influence of multiple optical reflexions on optically generated surface temperature variations has scarcely been considered throughout the literature. In this work, a model of optically generated heat sources in the ...
Lifetime Measurments of Excited States in Neutron-Rich Fission Fragments
(Acta Physica Polonica. Series B: Elementary Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics, Statistical Physics, Theory of Relativity, Field Theory, 2016)
Lifetimes of short-lived excited states in a wide range of neutron-rich fission fragments were measured using the recoil distance Doppler shift (RDDS) technique, which was applied to fusion-fission reactions in inverse ...
