The authors describe a method for determining the critical point of a second order phase transitions using a convolutional neural network based on the Ising model on a square lattice. Data for training and analysis were obtained using Monte Carlo simulations. The neural network was trained on the data corresponding to the low-temperature phase, that is a ferromagnetic one and high-temperature phase, that is a paramagnetic one, respectively. After training, the neural network analyzed input data from the entire temperature range: from 0.1 to 5.0 (in dimensionless units J) and determined the Curie point Tc.

The Institute of Nuclear Physics SB RAS in cooperation with the Russian Federal Nuclear Center VNIITF performs a series of researches aimed at acquiring a relative electron beam with energy up to 20 MeV, current up to 2 kA, and duration up to 200 ns at normalized emittance ca. 1000 ï•mm•rad in a linear induction accelerator (LIA). In order to generate electron beams with such parameters we require thorough investigation of all main sources of perturbation of electron beam trajectory caused by different instabilities that occur during the transport and acceleration of a high currency beam in the accelerating structure of LIA. For the experimental series on measuring the dynamics of transverse oscillation of a beam, we applied a set of fast current transformers which are used for registration of beam current and mode fields caused by this beam in the structure. These measurements were performed for the electron beam with the energy of 8.5 MeV and current of 1 kA going through the structure at different modes of focusing magnetic fields size in LIA. As a result, we registered oscillation of the electromagnetic field of normal modes in the accelerating modules of LIA, as well as we determined the dependence of the oscillation amplitude of these modes’ EM field on the number of accelerating module. This dependence was compared with the result of modeling of development dynamics of transverse instability in LIA that was performed using the created program system. This allowed us to determine the size of the increment of transverse instability of a relativistic electron beam under the given experimental conditions. Based on the acquired results, we made the analysis of possibility to use the beam generated in ILA as a driver for the FEL generator of coherent impulses of THz radiation within the frequency range of 0.3–1.2 THz with a sub-gigawatt level of power.

Experimental study of effect of a pair of weak shock waves on laminar-turbulent transition in the boundary layer of flat plate at Mach number 2. // Siberian Journal of Physics. 2022. Vol. 17, no. 2, pp. 30–40. (in Russ.) DOI 10.25205/2541-9447-2022-17-2-30-40

An experimental study of the effect of longitudinal vortices generated by weak shock waves on the laminar-turbulent transition in the boundary layer of a flat plate at a Mach number 2 is conducted. To amplify the effect of the longitudinal vortices generation, a model with leading edge blunting radius of 0,5 mm was used. The disturbance intensity was measured with a constant temperature hotwire anemometer and a single-wire sensor. To change the Reynolds numbers in the flow, the method of varying the pressure in the pretest section of a supersonic wind tunnel was used. According to the experimental conditions, the level of mass flow perturbations in the test section T325 of ITAM SB RAS did not exceed 0,1 % of the mean flow in the frequency range from 0,2 to 50 kHz. In this work, it is obtained for the first time that stationary streamwise vortices that arise in the boundary layer of a flat plate because of the action of a pair of weak shock waves on its leading edge lead to an early laminar-turbulent transition at different Reynolds numbers. In the case of a homogeneous boundary layer, the transition is achieved at Rex ~ 3.1 * 106, and in measurements in the region of vortices from shock waves at Rex ~ 1.5 * 106 è Rex ~ 2 * 106.

Rubtsov I. A. Two-stage carbon condensation model during detonation of high explosives. // Siberian Journal of Physics. 2022. Vol. 17, no. 2, pp. 48–55. (in Russ.) DOI 10.25205/2541-9447-2022-17-2-48-55

During detonating of high explosives with a negative oxygen balance, one of the products of the chemical reaction is condensed carbon. However, the lack of experimental data does not allow us to give a quantitative assessment of the carbon condensation process today. In this paper, a two-stage model of carbon condensation during the detonation of high explosives is proposed. We used small-angle X-ray scattering method to study the dynamics of the formation of carbon nanoparticles during the detonation of charges of a mixture of TNT and RDX.

The search of alternative fuels is one of the most important issues. Hydrogen is the most attractive one since its combustion products include only water. However, due to its specific properties wide implementation of hydrogen is not possible. There is an idea to use chemical carriers of hydrogen, for example, ammonia. The addition of hydrogen, which is the product of ammonia cracking, can improve the combustion characteristics of ammonia. The work presents experimental data on the structure of NH3/H2/O2/Ar flames at 4 atm. Equivalence ratio values were 0.8, 1.0 and 1.2, NH3/H2 ratio – 1/1. Flame structure was measured with molecular beam mass spectrometry with soft electron impact ionization. In the experiments, flames were stabilized on the flat burner. Temperature profiles were measured with thin S-type thermocouples. Numerical simulations were performed with PREMIX code from CHEMKIN package. The comparison of the experimental and numerical data enabled to reveal the mechanism of NH3/H2 oxidation showing the best predictive capability. Experimental and numerical data showed that the nitrogen-containing species which are present in the post-flame zone are N2 and NO whereas concentration of N2O and NO2 is negligible. It was revealed that in terms of NO reduction slightly rich conditions are more effective. In addition, the effect of equivalence ratio on the peak concentration of NO, N2O and NO2 was analyzed. Rich conditions appeared to be more effective to reduce peak concentrations of NO, N2O and NO2.
