On the origin of \gamma-ray emission in \eta\ Carina

open access: yes, 2015
\eta\ Car is the only colliding-wind binary for which high-energy \gamma\ rays are detected. Although the physical conditions in the shock region change on timescales of hours to days, the variability seen at GeV energies is weak and on significantly ...

Advanced ceramic material for high temperature turbine tip seals [PDF]

open access: yes
Ceramic material systems are being considered for potential use as turbine blade tip gas path seals at temperatures up to 1370 1/4 C. Silicon carbide and silicon nitride structures were selected for study since an initial analysis of the problem gave ...

High performance ammonium nitrate propellant [PDF]

open access: yes, 1979
A high performance propellant having greatly reduced hydrogen chloride emission is presented. It is comprised of: (1) a minor amount of hydrocarbon binder (10-15%), (2) at least 85% solids including ammonium nitrate as the primary oxidizer (about 40% to ...

Analysis of Possible Quantum Metastable States in Ballistic Graphene-based Josephson Junctions

open access: yes, 2010
Graphene is a relatively new material (2004) made of atomic layers of carbon arranged in a honeycomb lattice. Josephson junction devices are made from graphene by depositing two parallel superconducting leads on a graphene flake.
