    Viscoelastic shear banding in foam

    Full text link
    Shear banding is an important feature of flow in complex fluids. Essentially, shear bands refer to the coexistence of flowing and non-flowing regions in driven material. Understanding the possible sources of shear banding has important implications for a wide range of flow applications. In this regard, quasi-two dimensional flow offers a unique opportunity to study competing factors that result in shear bands. One proposal is the competition between intrinsic dissipation and an external source of dissipation. In this paper, we report on the experimental observation of the transition between different classes of shear-bands that have been predicted to exist in cylindrical geometry as the result of this competition [R.

    Evaporation of alpha particles from 31^31P nucleus

    Full text link
    The energy spectra of alpha particles have been measured in coincidence with the evaporation residues for the decay of the compound nucleus 31^31P produced in the reaction 19^19F (96 MeV) + 12^12C. The data have been compared with the predictions of the statistical model code CASCADE. It has been observed that significant deformation effect in the compound nucleus need to be considered in order to explain the shape of the evaporated alpha particle energy spectra.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures, revtex, epsf styl
