Progress towards blue emitting MgO-ZnO-GaO nanocomposites synthesized by bio mediated route.

MgO-ZnO-GaO nanocomposites are synthesized by solution combustion method using Aloe Vera gel as a reducing agent to increase the efficiency of blue emission. The appearance of Bragg reflections corresponding to MgO, ZnO and GaO clearly indicates the formation of nanocomposites. The surface morphology consists irregular shape and sized NPs.

An innovative approach for estimating energy absorption buildup factors (EABF) with HVL and TVL.

The current study proposes an empirical formula for absorption buildup factors as a function of target thickness. The present formula produces absorption buildup factors of compounds and mixtures with simple inputs of linear attenuation coefficient (μ), tenth value layer (TVL) and half value layer (HVL) of interacting target for the atomic number region 29 < Z < 92 for the energies 0.2 MeV < E < 1.

Heavy particle radioactivity of superheavy nuclei.

We investigated different decay modes such as heavy particle radioactivity (HPR), spontaneous fission (SF), alpha decay and beta-decay in superheavy (SH) region 104 ≤ Z ≤ 126. In HPR, different emissions from Zmin = 28 to maximum heavy particle (HP) emission up to Zmax = Z - 82 were considered. In the evaluation of Q-values, mass excess Weizsäcker-Skyrme 4+radial basis function (WS4+RBF) values were taken into account.

Synthesis and characterization of calcium-iron-chromium nanocomposites for electromagnetic radiation shielding application.

Over a century, shielding harmful electromagnetic radiations (EMR) and finding a suitable material, which can replace lead has become the major interest of researchers in this field. Herein, calcium-iron-chromium oxide nanocomposites with the different atomic ratios are synthesized using the solution combustion method. The as-obtained nanoparticles (NPs) are subjected to several structural and surface characteristics such as powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, elemental diffraction X-ray analysis, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy and UV-visible spectroscopy analysis were performed to confirm the successful synthesis.
