Central collisions

If Ml = M2, the incident particle is at rest after a central collision and all the energy is transferred to the target atom. For target atoms with M2 < Mi no back-scattering occurs. 

If P(e) extends to values e>e0+ (00), it can be concluded that in some part of the accessible R range, V+(R) is more attractive than V (R). Under normal conditions these parts will be close to the classical turning point for central collisions on K (R). Classically, the largest measured electron energy emax is then related to the value of the potential V+(R) at the turning point Rtp by... 

The turning point for central collisions, R0, at V (R) can be directly determined from the observed maximum electron energy, emax. From the potential curve model of Fig. 34b it can be seen that... 

Let us consider a central collision of a light quantum, with frequency v and Av... 

Angular momentum can only be transmitted in multiples / of hjln (/ = 0 for central collisions), n = m + mf) is the reduced mass of the system. 

Soft heavy-ion reactions observed somewhat above the Coulomb barrier (about 6McV/u UNILAC, GSI), and hard heavy-ion reactions occurring at relativistic energies of about I GeV/u (STS, GSI) are distinguished. In the case of central collision, the latter proceed in three stages ... 

The problem for the interactions upon central collisions of two axisymmetric particles (bubbles, droplets, or solid spheres) at small surface-to-surface distances was first solved by Reynolds" and Taylor for solid surfaces and by Ivanov et for films of uneven thickness. Equation 5.255... 

From the conservation of momentum and energy one finds that for a central collision ... 

Reaction mechanisms classified schematically according to relative impact parameter b (f-wave). Large values of b are classified as peripheral collisions and small values as central collisions... 

The neutrons originate from the fission process with an energy of about 2 MeV, and they are moderated predominantly by elastic collisions with the atomic nuclei present in the reactor core. At first the central collision will be discussed. The laws of conservation of momentum and energy are valid ... 

Velocity u of a neutron - after a central collision with an atom of mass number A - relative to its initial velocity u , calculated using O Eq. (57.12)... 

In the following O Table 57.2, a few examples are calculated for the velocity of the neutron after a collision relative to the velocity before the collision as a function of the mass of the collision partner (central collision). 

A neutron after a (central) collision with a proton (of identical mass) is at rest, i.e., has lost all of its kinetic energy. In collisions with heavier atoms the neutron bounces back (therefore the negative sign) and conserves part of its speed. In a collision with U the neutron bounces back with 99.2% of its initial speed, corresponding to 98.4% of its initial kinetic energy. 

One observes that for both central and noncentral collisions the relative decrease in speed = k is independent of the speed (or the energy) of the neutron and only depends on the mass ratio. Correspondingly, for the energy E = is valid. Frequently the energy loss is characterized by the quantity 0 = In(f),/ ). Again, is independent of E. For the central collision one can write ... 

The problem for the interactions upon central collisions of two axisymmetric particles (bubbles, droplets, or solid spheres) at small surface-to-surface distances was first solved by Reynolds [646] and Taylor [653,654] for solid surfaces and by Ivanov et al. [655,656] for films of uneven thickness. Equation 4.266 is referred to as the general equation for films with deformable surfaces [655,656] (see also the more recent reviews [240,657,658]). The asymptotic analysis [659-661] of the dependence of the drag and torque coefficient of a sphere, which is translating and rotating in the neighborhood of a solid plate, is also based on Equation 4.266 applied to the special case of stationary conditions. 

The work on slotted approaches in wireless communications, both for data and voice, is rather vast and old. For example, in [9,10,11] the authors propose using dynamic TDMA frameworks where slots in a static round structure are assigned dynamically to nodes. However, these approaches are normally centralized in which a master receives slot requests and assigns slots to nodes dynamically. The original Point Coordination Function (PCF), as well as the more recent Controlled Channel Access (HCCA) of the Hybrid Coordination Function (HCF), of IEEE 802.11 also work in a similar manner with the AP scheduling the nodes traffic in a centralized collision-free way. Conversely to these approaches, we seek a fully distributed access coordination scheme, which is a typical property of TDMA protocols. 

For a polyatomic ion consisting both of the atom B actually, involved in the collision process, and the remainder A, the maximum of Q is calculated to have a lower value than Ec. Assuming central collisions we obtain [19] ...
