RESUMO

This Letter presents a novel approach to study electron transport in warm dense matter. It also includes the first x-ray Thomson scattering (XRTS) measurement from low-density CH foams compressed by a strong laser-driven shock at the OMEGA laser facility. The XRTS measurement is combined with velocity interferometry (VISAR) and optical pyrometry (SOP) providing a robust measurement of thermodynamic conditions in the shock. Evidence of significant preheat contributing to elevated temperatures reaching 17.5-35 eV in shocked CH foam is measured by XRTS. These measurements are complemented by abnormally high shock velocities observed by VISAR and early emission seen by SOP. These results are compared to radiation hydrodynamics simulations that include first-principles treatment of nonlocal electron transport in warm dense matter with excellent agreement. Additional simulations confirm that the x-ray contribution to this preheat is negligible.

RESUMO

We present recent results of equation-of-state (EOS) measurements of shocked silica (SiO_{2}) aerogel foam at the OMEGA laser facility. Silica aerogel is an important low-density pressure standard used in many high energy density experiments, including the novel technique of shock and release. Due to its many applications, it has been a heavily studied material and has a well-known Hugoniot curve. This work then complements the velocity and pressure measurements with additional temperature data providing the full EOS information within the warm dense matter regime for the temperature interval of 1-15 eV and shock velocities between 10 and 40 km/s corresponding to shock pressures of 0.3-2 Mbar. The experimental results were compared with hydrodynamic simulations and EOS models. We found that the measured temperature was systematically lower than suggested by theoretical calculations. Simulations provide a possible explanation that the emission measured by optical pyrometry comes from a radiative precursor rather than from the shock front, which could have important implications for such measurements.

RESUMO

Monte Carlo perturbation theory, in which terms in the thermodynamic perturbation series are evaluated by Monte Carlo averaging, has potentially large advantages in efficiency for calculating free energies of liquids from ab initio potential surfaces. In order to test the accuracy of perturbation theory for liquid metals, a series of calculations has been done on liquid copper, modeled by an embedded atom potential. A simple 1/r(12) pair potential is used as the reference system. The free energy is calculated to third order in perturbation theory, and the results are compared to an exact formula. It is found that for optimal reference potential parameters, second order perturbation theory is essentially exact. Second and third order theories give accurate results for significantly nonoptimal reference parameters. The relation between perturbation theory and reweighting is discussed, and an approximate formula is derived that shows an exponential dependence of the efficiency of reweighting on the second order free energy correction. Finally, techniques for application to ab initio potentials are discussed. It is shown that with samples of 100 configurations, it is possible to obtain accuracy and precision at the level of approximately 1 meV/atom.

RESUMO

In order to study the process by which human melanoma cells achieve invasion of basement membranes, a modification of the Membrane Invasion Culture System was developed to allow the in vitro collection of human melanoma cell populations that had invaded acellular human amniotic membranes. A significant increase in the number of double-minute chromosomes (DMs) was observed in metaphase nuclei of A375P human melanoma cells which had passed through two amniotic membranes (A375P-2) over that of control cells. Eighteen percent of the first monolayer of A375P-2 cells contained 1-89 DMs/cell, whereas 3-8.3% of the control A375P cells contained 1-10 DMs/cell. There was a rapid loss of DMs in A375P-2 cells as a function of passage number. After 25 days in tissue culture, the incidence of DMs had essentially dropped below the control range. These data indicate that an unstable gene amplification event may be part of the process by which melanoma cells execute invasion through basement membranes.
