Abstract:An x-ray lFer shadowgraphy experiment was conducted on Xingguang-ll laser facility in 1996.A multi-layer spherical mirror was used as an imaging element and a high sensitivity CCD camera as a detector. W e measured the near-field image of the T i x-ray laser beam. With a T i x-ray laser beam as a backlight source, we obtained a clear Cu mesh image, demonstrating the potential as advanced diagnostic measurements to study high density plasmas in inertial confinement fusion research.
“…This shows that the abstraction of H-atom from 4 0 -OH site (B-ring) is easier than 7-OH (A-ring) and 5-OH (A-ring) sites. The higher BDE of 5-OH and 7-OH radical species are due to the presence of 2,3-double bond with 4-oxo function(1,4-pyrone moiety) which is a strong electron-withdrawing group in C and it suppresses the radical-scavenging activity of A-ring in general [49]. An intramolecular hydrogen bond is found between 4-oxo group and 5 hydroxyl groups which is responsible for higher BDE value of 5-OH compared to 7-OH radical.…”

“…Since the pion condensates inherent in the DCC constitute an enhanced source of predominantly soft pions, it has soon been realized that within this coherent state a copious annihilation into soft dilepton pairs might occur, similar to the standard ππ annihilation, only at much lower invariant masses. In fact, the dominant yield from such coherent radiation will be concentrated well below the two-pion threshold [192]. Therefore, such a signal will be very difficult to discriminate in a heavy-ion collision due to the notoriously large background from π 0 → γe + e − Dalitz decays after freezeout.…”
The current theoretical status in the analysis and interpretation of low-mass dilepton measurements in (ultra-) relativistic heavy-ion experiments is reviewed. Special emphasis is put on potential signals of (partial) restoration of dynamically broken chiral symmetry in a hot and dense hadronic medium. It follows from chiral symmetry alone that parity partners of hadronic correlation functions must become identical when the symmetry is restored. The assessment of medium effects in the vector channel, which governs the dilepton production, thus necessitates a simultaneous treatment of the vector and axialvector degrees of freedom. While significant progress in this respect has been made some open questions remain in establishing a rigorous link in the mass region below 1 GeV. From the present calculations a suggestive 'quark-hadron duality' emerges near the phase boundary. It implies substantial medium effects in the dilepton signal from the hadronic phase which smoothly matches a perturbative description within the plasma phase.
“…In addition to the hadronic signals, the electro-magnetic DCC signatures have also been also addressed [17,18]. Since the electro-magnetic current is given by the third component of the isovector current, the isospin oscillation of a coherent pion field may produce photons and dileptons which could provide information on the early dynamical evolution of the DCC.…”
Disoriented chiral condensates or long wavelength pionic oscillations and their interaction with the thermal environment can be a significant source of dileptons. We calculate the yield of such dilepton production within the linear sigma model, both in a quantal mean-field treatment and in a semi-classical approximation. We then illustrate the basic features of the dilepton spectrum in a schematic model. We find that dilepton yield with invariant mass near and below 2m π due to the soft pion modes can be up to two orders of magnitude larger than the corresponding equilibrium yield.
