The results show that MKPC sets rapidly with less than 8% of borax, which is unfavorable to the application of MKPC on construction. Adding more than 8%（including 8%） of borax results in a secondary hydration peak for MKPC, in which the process of hydration can be divided into five stages, namely, pre-induction period, induction period, acceleration period, deceleration period and stable period. M/P ratios could not change the multi-step reactive stages but higher M/P ratios could accelerate the hydration. Borax tends to impact the formation of Mg-containing hydrated products.展开更多

The νp-process, which is supposed to take place at the very early epoch of type II supernovae, has considerable neutrons and alphas together with protons. The alpha-induced reactions on proton-rich unstable nuclei in the light mass regions is expected to play a crucial role, but very few of them were investigated well yet because of the experimental difficulties. Specifically, I report our recent experimental effort for the breakout process from the pp-chain region,~7Be(α, γ)^(11)C(α,p)^(14)N under the νp-process. The neutron-induced reactions on proton-rich nuclei, which is even more a challenging subject, were investigated previously for very few nuclei. One possible experimental method is the Trojan Horse Method(THM). We successfully have applied THM to the ^(18)F(n,α)^(14)N reaction study with an unstable beam of ^(18)F.展开更多
