Rydberg Matter Clusters: Theory of Interaction and Sorption Properties

Abstract

Sorption capacity of Rydberg matter (RM) clusters is examined for both electronegative and neutral molecules. Sorption isotherm of RM has been determined as a function of gas pressure and time. It is shown that chemisorption is characteristic for electronegative molecules whereas molecules with no affinity to electrons are absorbed by physisorption mechanism. Sorption capacity of RM is shown to be highest for physisorption mechanism. Absorption of molecules by RM clusters can be used either to detect condensed RM formation or both to maintain high vacuum conditions and high purity of noble gas atmospheres. Sorption capacity of RM can significantly exceed conventional getter sorption capacities.

Time-of-flight of He ions from laser-induced processes in ultra-dense deuterium D(0)

“…No theoretical treatment of an ultra-dense (spin-based Rydberg matter) cluster layer exists. Such a layer may be similar in some respects to a layer of ordinary (orbital angular momentum-based) Rydberg matter [27]. For example, the superconductive orbiting Rydberg-like electrons [28] will give a similar http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ijms.2014.…”

Revealing ordering and structural changes at glass transition

“…E.g. agglomeration of excitations has been revealed to cause formation of condensed excited matter [21]. Fluidisation of nanoscale Caalumina-borosilicate glass particles has been observed under electron irradiation in a moderately focused beam of JEM 2010F FEGTEM at irradiation time 30 min [22].…”

The Minima of Viscosities

“…The effective masses are hence sensitive not only to the characteristics of the substances analysed, but also to external conditions, namely external pressure. The extreme increase in temperature can additionally cause the dissociation of molecules and ionisation, and leads to the transformation of matter to a plasma state, with possible intermediate condensed phases such as the condensed Rydberg matter, the rheological behaviour of which is unknown [59][60][61][62], although these can be of practical use to validate the TB approach to viscosity and its modification, applying the above concept of effective masses. Finally, we note that the Eyring-Kaptay (EK) equation used here to find the temperature T vm was extended from the temperature range, where its correctness was confirmed by the experiment [6,63], to the range where its validity may be questionable; therefore, Equation ( 3) is an approximate assessment of the crossover temperature T vm .…”
