- The PHENIX detector is designed to perform a broad study of A-A, p-A, and p-p collisions to investigate nuclear matter under extreme conditions. A wide variety of probes, sensitive to all timescales, are used to study systematic variations with species and energy as well as to measure the spin structure of the nucleon. Designing for the needs of the heavy-ion and polarized-proton programs has produced a detector with unparalleled capabilities. PHENIX measures electron and muon pairs, photons, and hadrons with excellent energy and momentum resolution. The detector consists of a large number of subsystems that are discussed in other papers in this volume. The overall design parameters of the detector are presented. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V.

- A numerical approach to interparticle breakage is applied using the rock failure process analysis code, RFPA2D. A 2D particle assembly in a container is first numerically simulated to obtain the fringe patterns of stress fields that resemble the photoelastic test. Then, in addition, the interparticle breakage of the particle assembly in a chamber is conducted. The chamber consists of a steel container and a steel platen for transferring the load, and contains 15 particles of arbitrary sizes and irregular shapes. A plane strain condition is assumed. The particle bed is loaded under form conditions, in which the size reduction and the applied force are a function of the displacement. The numerical results indicate that, during the crushing process, three principal regimes appear: (i) the elastic deformation regime, where each particle deforms elastically; (ii) the fragmentation regime, where the particle assembly is crushed in a particle-by-particle fashion; and (iii) the assembly hardening regime, where the densified assembly recovers a significant stiffness. The dominant mode of failure is at first splitting, which is more or less parallel to the loading direction, and then progressive crushing, which mainly depends on the confinement from the chamber walls. The analysis of the load–displacement curves of the assembly obtained from the simulations reveals a high undulating load plateau, which suggests a macro-ductile behaviour.

- In this paper, SiGe/Si multilayer heterostructures prepared by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are described with the aim of manufacturing SiGe heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs). Based on the simulations made by Medici, device structures have been designed and grown. The quality of the MBE layered structures has been characterized by reflection high-energy electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, secondary ion mass spectrometry and spreading resistance. Furthermore, SiGe-HBTs have been fabricated. Promising DC and RF results of processed HBT devices have been obtained. © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

- The phase precipitated in an Mg-Y-Nd alloy during ageing was studied using electron microscopy. Observations were performed along the orientations paralleling to [0001] and [11 (2) over bar0] zone axes of the matrix. The results showed that the platelike p phase has three variants growing along three <1120> directions of the matrix, the beta phase grew faster along <0001>(alpha) and <1120>(alpha) directions than along the third direction (<1 (1) over bar 00>). The morphology of the beta phases was illustrated according to the analysis of the directional misfit between the beta phase and the matrix.

- A numerical approach to particle breakage is applied using the Rock Failure Process Analysis code, RFPA (super 2D) . The numerical tool is validated by simulating the Brazilian test with a two-dimensional disk sample. Then two irregularly shaped particles with an exact geometry and exact mechanical properties are numerically modelled to investigate their breakage behaviour under unconfined and confined loading conditions. The numerical results indicate that the dominant mode of failure is catastrophic splitting and progressive crushing, which mainly depends on the loading conditions with respect to confinement. The analysis of the load-displacement curves obtained from the simulations suggests a brittle-ductile transition between the two cases. The lateral constraint increases the initial stiffness and the maximum breakage strength of the particle. Most of the energy released during the failure process comes from the crushing of highly stressed areas, particularly, in the vicinity of the contact points where a crushed zone forms. It is also found that the particle shape governs the breakage strength in addition to the material properties themselves, and that the heterogeneity of the particles governs the fracture propagation paths
