We present a new technique to measure absolute total collision cross sections from metastable neon atoms. The technique is based on the observation of the decay rate of trapped atoms as they collide with room temperature atoms. We present the first measurement of this kind using trapped neon atoms in the (3)P(2) metastable state colliding with thermal ground state argon. The measured cross section has a value of 556+/-26 A(2).

The airflow in the transport channel contributes to the accelerated straightening of the hooked fibers, which greatly influences the structural properties of the yarn. To study the straightening process of hooked fiber in the fiber transport channel, Altair EDEM 2022 software was used to establish flexible fiber models, and combined with ANSYS Fluent 2022R1 simulation software, the fluid-solid coupling method was used to simulate the air velocity distribution in the fiber transport channel and the straightening process of the hooked fibers in the airflow field. The numerical simulated air flow is verified by Hagen-Poissuille pipe flow equation.

This study investigates the motion of an electron in a Coulomb potential driven by an intense linearly polarized XUV laser pulse analyzed using Gordon-Volkov wave functions. The wave function is decomposed into spherical partial waves to model the scattered electron wave packet after the recollision with a proton. This interaction triggers high harmonic generation, producing coherent X-ray pulses with frequencies that are integer multiples of the XUV field.

As the occurrence of human diseases and conditions increase, questions continue to arise about their linkages to chemical exposure, especially for per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Currently, many chemicals of concern have limited experimental information available for their use in analytical assessments. Here, we aim to increase this knowledge by providing the scientific community with multidimensional characteristics for 175 PFAS and their resulting 281 ion types.

Coaxial rotor helicopters have many advantages and have a wide range of civilian and military applications; however, there is a risk of blade collision between the upper and lower rotor blades, and the challenge still exists in balancing rotor parameters and flight control. In this paper, a blade tip distance measurement method based on coded ultrasonic ranging and phase triggering is proposed to tackle this measurement environment and expand the application of ultrasonic ranging in high-speed dynamic measurement. The time of flight () of coded ultrasonic ranging is calculated by the amplitude threshold improvement method and cross-correlation method, and the sound velocity is compensated by a proposed multi-factor compensation method.

Cyclic ion mobility-mass spectrometry (cIM-MS) is a powerful technique for separating and identifying isomeric mixtures of compounds. When coupled with chromatography, cIM-MS creates a multidimensional separation system, with high resolving power and peak capacity. In this study, we report the cyclic ion mobility separation and high-resolution mass spectrometry identification of four regioisomers of a Sugammadex-related impurity, abbreviated as Di-OH-SGM.
