    Notes: Abstract Small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) was used to determine the structural changes in polyethylene induced by radiation. The changes in densities of the crystalline and amorphous phases, ρ c and ρ a , were calculated after direct determination of the mean square density fluctuation 〈η2〉. ρ a increases with increasing radiation dose for both linear and branched polyethylene. This accounts for the serious discrepancy between crystallinities determined from wide-angle x-ray scattering and density measurements. This study confirms our previous proposal that crosslinks occur primarily in the noncrystalline phase, most likely at the defects in the lateral grain boundary regions.

    Notes: Abstract Small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS) was used to determine density fluctuation in radiation-induced crosslinked polyethylene of varying degrees of crystallinity. Density fluctuation FL decreases with increasing crystallinity, while it increases linearly with increasing radiation dose or degree of crosslinking. By means of extrapolation, density fluctuations in the crystalline and the amorphous phasesFL c andFL a were obtained. At a given dose,FL a is greater thanFL c . The increase inFL a with radiation is found to be much greater than that ofFL c compared with the initial values at 0 Mrad,FL c showing only a negligible increase event at 312 Mrad. The present findings suggest that crosslinks are not introduced within the crystalline phase; they take place primarily in the noncrystalline phase, in agreement with the conclusions reached previously on the basis of changes in crystalline and amorphous densities in irradiated polyethylene.

    Notes: Abstract Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation with an embedded atom method (EAM) potential is used to study gas-phase collisions of two 55-atom gold clusters. The probability of formation of a long-lived collision complex and the structure of this complex, after it is quenched to OK, are determined for head-on collisions in which each collision partner is chosen randomly from an equilibrium thermal bath. Two sets of collisions are studied. In the first the clusters are initially at OK, and in the second they are initially at 300K. All collisions result in cluster aggregation with significant inelastic deformation of the original clusters. The major conversion of potential energy into internal kinetic energy in the collision occurs on the time scale of a single vibrational oscillation. When the clusters are initially at OK, the collision complex is a solid cluster. When the clusters are initially at 300K, the collision complex is a liquid cluster.
