Coal specimens are recovered from Colorado at a depth of 610 m. The coal specimens are saturated with the strong sorbing gas CO2 for a certain period and then the rupture disc is suddenly broken on top of the shock tube to generate a shock wave propagating upwards and a rarefaction wave propagating downwards through the specimen.This rapid decompression and desorption has the potential to cause energetic fragmentation in coal.Three types of behaviors in coal after rapid decompression are found, i.e. degassing without fragmentation, horizontal fragmentation, and vertical fragmentation. We speculate that the characteristics of fracture network（e.g. aperture, spacing, orientation and stiffness） and gas desorption play a role in this dynamic event as coal can be considered as a dual porosity, dual permeability, dual stiffness sorbing medium. This study has important implications in understanding energetic failure process in underground coal mines such as coal gas outbursts.展开更多

It plays a remarkable role in modification and replacement of most of the propellant(gun and rocket) preparations. In this report we present the comparative strategies involved in the syntheses of HNIW with respect to economical and environmental aspects. Various methods reported in the literature on the purification of the crude HNIW(α-HNIW) to obtain ε-form of HNIW(high dense/more potential) are consolidated. Understanding of the structure, morphology, energetics, thermal behavior and their modification to meet the applicability(decreased impact sensitivity) determines the industrial application of HNIW. A compilation of the available literature on the aforementioned characteristic properties for obtaining a value added ε-HNIW is discussed here. This overview also reports the literature available on newer forms of HNIW including derivatives and cocrystals,which increase the performance of HNIW.展开更多

Here, we briefly discuss global properties of VLF/ELF waves, along with the variability of the electron radiation belts associated with wave-particle interactions and radial diffusion. We provide cases of electron loss and acceleration as a result of wave-particle interactions primarily due to such waves, and particularly some preliminary results of 3D evolution of phase space density from our currently developing 3D code. We comment on the existing mechanisms responsible for acceleration and loss, and identify several critical issues that need to be addressed. We review latest progress and suggest open questions for future investigation.展开更多

In this work, guanidine cation CN3 H6+ (Gu) and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole C2H4N4(ATz) were crystallized into NaN5 and two novel energetic coordination polymers(CPs),(NaN5)5[(CH6-N3)N5](N5)3–(1) and(NaN5)2(C2H4N4)(2) were prepared respectively via a self-assembly process. The crystal structure reveals the co-existence of the chelating pentazole anion and organic component in the solid state. In polymer 1, Na+and N5– were coordinated to form a cage structure in which guanidine cation [C(NH2)3]+ was trapped;for polymer 2, a mixedligand system was observed;N5 – and ATz coordinate separately with Na+and form two independent but interweaved nets. In this way, coordination polymer has been successfully utilized to modify specific properties of energetic materials through crystallization. Benefiting from the coordination and weak interactions, the decomposition temperatures of both polymers increase from 111°C(1D structure [Na(H2 O)(N5)]?2 H2 O) to 118.4 and 126.5°C respectively. Moreover, no crystallized H2 O was generated in products to afford the anhydrous compounds of pentazole salts with high heats of formation( >800 kJ mol–1). Compared to traditional energetic materials, the advantage in heats of formation is still obvious for the cyclo-N5– based CPs, which highlights cyclo-N5– as a promising energetic precursor for high energy density materials(HEDMs).展开更多

文摘Interactions between very/extremely low frequency (VLF/ELF) waves and energetic electrons play a fundamental role in dynamics occurring in the inner magnetosphere. Here, we briefly discuss global properties of VLF/ELF waves, along with the variability of the electron radiation belts associated with wave-particle interactions and radial diffusion. We provide cases of electron loss and acceleration as a result of wave-particle interactions primarily due to such waves, and particularly some preliminary results of 3D evolution of phase space density from our currently developing 3D code. We comment on the existing mechanisms responsible for acceleration and loss, and identify several critical issues that need to be addressed. We review latest progress and suggest open questions for future investigation.

文摘The CME’s structure of solar wind(interplanetary magnetic field)is different from CIR’s.The two processes in which plasma and solar wind energy are injected into the Earth’s inner magnetosphere are not the same.So,the variations of energetic elec- trons flux in the radiation belts are different between the storms associated with CMEs and CIRs.By using data from SAMPEX(Solar,Anomalous,and Magnetospheric Particle Explorer)satellite,we have investigated the dynamic variations of the outer radiation belt for 1.5–6.0 MeV electrons during 54 CME-driven storms and 26 CIR-driven recurrent storms.According to the superposed epoch analysis,for CME-and CIR-driven storms,when the Dst index reaches the minimum,the locations of the outer boundary move to L=4 and L=5.5,respectively.In the recovery phases,the locations of the outer boundary of the outer radiation belt are generally lower than and slightly higher than those before CME-and CIR-driven storms,respectively.We have found that the logarithmically decaying 1/e cut-off L-shell is a satisfying indicator of the outer boundary of the outer radiation belt.Furthermore,our study shows that the logarithmically decaying 1/e cut-off latitude is dependent on the Kp index in the main phases of CME-and CIR-driven storms,while in the recovery phases,there is no obvious correlation.In ad- dition,it has been shown that the locations of the peak electron flux are controlled by the minimum Dst index in the main phases of CME-driven storms.The influences of multiple storms on the electron flux of outer radiation belt have also been in- vestigated.

文摘Nano-TATB was developed in microchannels by physical method and chemical method,respectively.The effects of total flow rate,number of microreactor plates,solvent/non-solvent ratio and temperature on the particle size of TATB in the physical method were studied.Prepared TATB were characterized by Nano Sizer,Scanning Electron Microscopy,Specific surface aperture analyzer,X-ray diffraction,Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Differential Scanning Calorimetry.The results show that the TATB obtained by physical method and chemical method are spherical,with average particle size of 130.66 nm and 108.51 nm,respectively.Specific surface areas of TATB obtained by physical and chemical methods are 21.37 m^(2)/g and 21.91 m^(2)/g,respectively.Compared with the specific surface area of micro-TATB(0.0808 m^(2)/g),the specific surface area of nano-TATB is significantly increased.DSC test results show that the smaller the particle size of TATB,the lower the thermal decomposition temperature.In addition,by simulating the mixing state of fluid in microchannels and combining with the classical nucleation theory,the mechanism of preparing nano-TATB by microchannels was proposed.

文摘Coordination to form polymer is emerging as a new technology for modifying or enhancing the properties of the existed energetic substances in energetic materials area. In this work, guanidine cation CN3 H6+ (Gu) and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole C2H4N4(ATz) were crystallized into NaN5 and two novel energetic coordination polymers(CPs),(NaN5)5[(CH6-N3)N5](N5)3–(1) and(NaN5)2(C2H4N4)(2) were prepared respectively via a self-assembly process. The crystal structure reveals the co-existence of the chelating pentazole anion and organic component in the solid state. In polymer 1, Na+and N5– were coordinated to form a cage structure in which guanidine cation [C(NH2)3]+ was trapped;for polymer 2, a mixedligand system was observed;N5 – and ATz coordinate separately with Na+and form two independent but interweaved nets. In this way, coordination polymer has been successfully utilized to modify specific properties of energetic materials through crystallization. Benefiting from the coordination and weak interactions, the decomposition temperatures of both polymers increase from 111°C(1D structure [Na(H2 O)(N5)]?2 H2 O) to 118.4 and 126.5°C respectively. Moreover, no crystallized H2 O was generated in products to afford the anhydrous compounds of pentazole salts with high heats of formation( >800 kJ mol–1). Compared to traditional energetic materials, the advantage in heats of formation is still obvious for the cyclo-N5– based CPs, which highlights cyclo-N5– as a promising energetic precursor for high energy density materials(HEDMs).

文摘One of the most fundamental important issues in the space physics is to understand how solar wind energy transports into the inner magnetosphere.Ultra low frequency(ULF)wave in the magnetosphere and its impact on energetic particles,such as the wave-particle resonance,modulation,and particle acceleration,are extremely important topics in the Earth’s radiation belt dynamics and solar wind― magnetospheric coupling.In this review,we briefly introduce the recent advances on ULF waves study. Further,we will explore the density structures and ion compositions around the plasmaspheric boundary layer(PBL)and discuss its possible relation to the ULF waves.
