Coal Structure Characteristics of the 2# Coal Seam in the Jiaozuo Mining Area and Its Geological Dependence.

To clarify the coal structure, spatial distribution, and controlling factors of the 2# coal seam in Jiaozuo mining, the drilling coal samples were collected to observe the coal type and coal structure. The coal macerals were identified by a MPVSP microscope photometer, and the spatial characteristics of the coal structure were obtained through interpreting deep lateral resistivity logging, natural gamma ray logging, density logging, and acoustic logging curves. The influence of coal properties, burial depth, geological stress, and faults on the coal structure were discussed correspondingly.

Experimental investigation on True Triaxial Deformation and Progressive Damage Behaviour of Sandstone.

Studying the true triaxial deformation characteristics and progressive damage behavior of sandstone is of great significance for the stability control of roadways. Both the conventional triaxial test (CTT) and the true triaxial compression test (TTT) were conducted for sandstone to investigate its deformation characteristics and the variation laws of volume strain during the progressive damage process under different confining pressures. The conducted experiments showed that both the axial and lateral strains of the rock prior to failure under CTT conditions increased with increasing confining pressure.

Development of series H(-) multicusp ion source at China Institute of Atomic Energy.

The development of H(-) multicusp ion sources has been carried out at China Institute of Atomic Energy (CIAE) for more than ten years. The first H(-) ion source with 5.2 mA was made in 2002.

Matching from H(-) multicusp source to central region of a 100 MeV compact cyclotron for high current injection.

The way of matching the beam from an external ion source to the central region of the cyclotron CYCIAE-100 is presented in this article. The transverse acceptances of the central region were calculated, which provided the matching ellipse parameter requirements to the injection transport optics design. The optics of the injection line was simulated using TRANSOPTR, which allowed space charge effect calculation, and neutralization was taken into account.

Ion source and low energy injection line for a central region model cyclotron.

At CIAE, a 100 MeV H(-) cyclotron (CYCIAE-100) is under design and construction. A central region model (CRM) cyclotron was built for various experimental verifications for the CYCIAE-100 project and for research and development of high current injection to accelerate milliampere H(-) beam. The H(-) multicusp source built in 2003 has been improved recently to make the source operation more stable.
