  • For dielectric gratings on a flat metal surface, photonic band gaps created by Brags scattering of surface plasmon polaritons are observed. The observation result that directly images this gap is compared with that predicted by a numerical model based on a plane wave expansion. Consistency between the experimental and numerical results is also confirmed by comparison with the well-known calculation method of diffraction, the rigorous coupled wave analysis method.

  • GMACS is one of the first light instruments for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). The development of GMACS control software follows Agile software development process, and the design of the software is based on the Unified Model Language (UML). In this poster, we present the architecture of the GMACS software and the development processes. As an example of the software development, we show the software of the Slit Mask Exchange Mechanism Prototype (SMEM-P) which is part of the GMACS Device Control Package (DCP).

  • Using 74 galaxy clusters in the COSMOS field at 0.1 < z < 1.2, we calculate the environmental quenching timescale, defined as the time required after a galaxy is accreted by a cluster for it to stop star formation. Cluster candidates are selected as the overdensities with the surface number density exceeding the 4-σ. With the "delayed-then-rapid" quenching model, we can successfully reproduce the separation of the galaxies(star-forming, intermediate, and quiescent) on the NUV-R - R-J color plane comparing with the BC03 evolutionary track. With the mass growth rate of halo mass and the ratio of categorized galaxies, we can constratin the environmental quenching timescale ~ 2Gyr at z ~ 1. We will present the result as a function of redshift and compare them with dynamical timescale and gas depletion timescale.

  • To model the atmospheric dispersion of radionuclides released from nuclear accident is very important for nuclear emergency. But the uncertainty of model parameters, such as source term and meteorological data, may significantly affect the prediction accuracy. Data assimilation (DA) is usually used to improve the model prediction with the measurements. The paper proposed a parameter bias transformation method combined with Lagrangian puff model to perform DA. The method uses the transformation of coordinates to approximate the effect of parameters bias. The uncertainty of four model parameters is considered in the paper: release rate, wind speed, wind direction and plume height. And particle swarm optimization is used for searching the optimal parameters. Twin experiment and Kincaid experiment are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method can effectively increase the reliability of model prediction and estimate the parameters. It has the advantage of clear concept and simple calculation. It will be useful for improving the result of atmospheric dispersion model at the early stage of nuclear emergency.

  • The structure of a series of Cu/Ni is characterized by using a program, SUPREX, to model the x-ray diffraction patterns, multilayers. The samples had nominal layer thickness of 3/3, 7/7, 13.5/13.5, 20/20, 30/30, 50/50, 80/80, 100/100, and 200/200 Angstroms. The diffraction patterns were taken around the (111) peak for the two constituent materials. A kinematical model is used to characterize the diffraction patterns and the parameters for the model are described. An initial model is calculated using initial guesses for the parameters. The model is then fit to the data by reducing $x^2$using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. The samples are shown to be high quality supperlattices.

  • We reexamined CDM texture large-scale structure (LSS) formation model. We confirmed that texture model is consistent with 4-year COBE data both in an open and a critical matter density (${\Omega}_0$ = 1) universes, and then obtained normalization for density perturbation power spectrum. We next compare the power spectrum with LSS observation data. Contrary to the previous literature, we found that texture model matches with these data in an open universe no better than in an ${\Omega}_0$ = 1 universe. We also found that the model is more likely to fit these data in a cosmological constant dominated ($\Lambda-$) universe.

  • For two-dimensional grid electrodes immersed in plasmas, sheath expansion due to negative high-voltage pulse applied to the electrode generates high-energy pseudowave. The high-energy pseudowave can be used as ion beam for ion implantation. To estimate ion dose due to high-energy pseudowave, investigation on sheath expansion of grid electroes is necessary. To investigate sheath expansion, an analytic model was developed by Vlasov equation and applying the 1-D sheath expansion model to 2-D. Because of lack of generalized 2-D Child-Langmuir current, model cannot give solvable equation. Instead, for a given grid electrode geometry, the model found the relations between ion distribution functions, Child-Langmuir currents, and sheath expansions. With these relations and particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations, for given grid electrode geometry, computation time was greatly reduced for various conditions such as electrode voltages, plasma densities, and ion species. The model was examined by PIC simulations and experiments, and they well agreed.

  • New generation nuclear reactors are designed using advanced safety analysis methods. A thorough understanding of different interacting physical phenomena is necessary to avoid underestimation and overestimation of consequences of off-normal transients in the reactor safety analysis results. This feature requires a multiphysics reactor simulation model. In this context, a coupled dynamics model based on a multiphysics formulation is developed indigenously for the transient analysis of large pressurized VVER reactors. Major simplifications are employed in the model by making several assumptions based on the physics of individual phenomenon. Space and time grids are optimized to minimize the computational bulk. The capability of the model is demonstrated by solving a series of international (AER) benchmark problems for VVER reactors. The developed model was used to analyze a number of reactivity transients that are likely to occur in VVER reactors.
