Abstract:
In order to achieve the measurement of large-aperture mirrors with high precision, the stitching interferometer system is established, the whole surface is obtained. The basic theory of stitching measurement technology is to divide the whole test mirror into several parts, and then measure the surface of each part respectively, and finally stitch these surfaces of different parts together. In the process of stitching measurement, overlapping areas between different local surface shapes use mean method of fusing overlapping areas would reduce the high-frequency components. First of all, the original overlapping areas surface shape goes through the wavelet transformation, resulting in low frequency coefficients and high frequency coefficients; Then, low frequency coefficients and high frequency coefficients is determined by different fusion rules; in the end, Finally, overlapping area surface shape is obtained by wavelet inverse transformation. This paper discusses the stitching interferometer test on a 120 mm×40 mm rectangular reflection mirror, in which fusion of overlapping areas has average method as well as the proposed algorithm, and also uses power spectral density conduct an objective comparison on the fusion results. The result of this experiment shows that the proposed algorithm fusion has better effects to improves the retention of high-frequency than the conventional methods.

Abstract:
Aim at the change problem of output beam direction when using a rotated out-coupling mirror as the tunable element, a laser system with constant direction of the tuned output beam was designed by shifting the gain fiber position. According to the grating equation, the tunable mechanism of shifting gain fiber was analyzed. Further, the changes of gain linewidth with the fiber position and mode field radius were also analyzed by means of the coupling model of the output and feedback beams, which show that the gain linewidth of the output beams for the designed fiber laser was less than 0.2 nm. The experimental results show that the maximum output power is 470 mW at 1543.446 nm, with a slope efficiency of 23.9%. The experiment also shows that the wavelength tunable range is 36 nm, and the 3 dB linewidths in the whole tunable range are less than 0.08 nm.

Abstract:
In this paper, the normal single-mode fiber is pulled into microfiber by the method of carbon dioxide laser heating, wet method is used to transfer graphene and cover microfiber to form a composite waveguide. The light of different wavelengths enters the composite waveguide through the coupler, interacts with graphene in the form of evanescent waves, thus the research experiment of preferential absorption characteristic is carried out. When a short wave light was used as a pump light, changes in the long wave spectrum with the increase of incident intensity were measured, obtaining a modulation depth of about 3.5 dB, and a modulation efficiency of 0.62 dB·mW-1. When the long wave light was used as the pump light, the light transmittance of the short wave signal was measured to change by ~1.9%. The experimental results show that with the increase of the incident light intensity of the pump light at any wavelength, the composite waveguide exhibits its preferential absorption characteristics. In addition, when the long-wave and short-wave waves passed through the composite waveguide, the transmittance changes with the input power were tested, experiments show that the long-wavelength transmittance increases faster than the short-wavelength transmittance, and the corresponding theoretical analysis can be made from the two aspects of energy band and evanescent wave.

Abstract:
The beam control system is the nerve center of the high power phased array antenna, responsible for precise control and condition monitoring of all the cell phases in the antenna array. In order to solve the need of online updating or maintenance of control system, a remote updating system based on SoPC is constructed. A reconfigurable method of remote online updating for FPGA hardware configuration file and Nios II software program file is proposed. The boot sequence copying hardware configuration code and software code is analyzed, and the advanced BootLoader is carried out to specify boot address of the application mode image manually. The EPCS device stores a factory pattern image for remote updates and multiple application pattern images for antenna phase control. The CAN communication bus and custom CAN application layer protocols are used to transmit data and verify data, ensuring the reliability and efficiency of the transmission. The experiment verifies the feasibility of the scheme and the system can switch between multiple configuration programs. Even if the remote update fails, the FPGA can automatically load the factory mode image to ensure the system is safe and reliable. The system is simple, and the method is flexible.

2018, 30: 083004. doi: 10.11884/HPLPB201830.180025
Abstract:
A 40 kW injection locked gyrotron is designed based on theoretical calculations and simulations. The interaction structure is formed by two cavities which operate under TE01-TE03 mode pair. The state of the beam across the pre-bunching cavity is calculated with the fixed profile theory, and the operation parameters of the gyrotron under free oscillation state is calculated with the self-consistent theory. The regulation of the oscillation frequency varying with the parameters is achieved, based on which the locking bandwidth is proposed. A PIC code is used for simulating the injection locking state, a gain of 30.5 dB and a locking bandwidth of 20 MHz are achieved under a drifting length of 7 mm. If the drifting length or the input power is increased, the locking bandwidth could be wider. The calculations and simulations show that injection locking of the 40 kW gyrotron is feasible.

2018, 30: 083006. doi: 10.11884/HPLPB201830.180036
Abstract:
In order to realize the phase locking of GW-level high power microwave (HPM) driven by kW-level RF source, a relativistic klystron amplifier (RKA) with four resonant cavities is designed. However, the particle in cell (PIC) simulation shows that high order mode oscillation in the device destroys the phase locking of HPM seriously. And this high order mode excitation is closely related to the coupling between middle cavities. Combining with the structure of RKA, an equivalent circuit model is built to study the process of high order mode excitation (positive feedback process). Simulations show that positive feedback process of high order mode can be controlled by adding RF lossy material to the RKA structure. And this measure increases the threshold current of the high order mode excitation. We have got a phase-locking output microwave of 2.3 GW with an input power of 4 kW in simulation. Experiments were performed on the LTD accelerator, and the input microwave was provided by a solid-state microwave source. Under the conditions of an input microwave of 10 kW, the output power achieved 1.8 GW with a gain of 52.6 dB; and the relative phase difference between input and output RF signals was about ±10° in the locking duration of 90 ns.

2018, 30: 083008. doi: 10.11884/HPLPB201830.170472
Abstract:
A two-dimensional electron-thermal model of the PNP type Darlington tube is established, and the transient behaviors of the Darlington tube in the forward-active region are simulated with the injection of high power microwaves (HPMs) and electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) from the collector. A discussion and a comparison of the damage effects and the mechanism of the device under the injection of HPMs and EMPs are performed. The results show that temperature variation has a periodic rule of "decrease-increase" and temperature elevation occurs in the positive half-period, and the cylindrical region of base-emitter junction of the second transistor (near the emitter of the Darlington tube) is susceptible to damage when HPM signals are injected. While temperature keeps rising and the rate of increase presents a tendency of "rapid-slow" until the device burns out under the injection of EMP signals, and the damage location is the same as the damage area of HPM injection. In addition, the damage mechanism during the positive half-period of HPM injection is similar to that of EPM injection. Finally, the dependence relations of damage energy and damage power of EMPs and HPMs on pulse-width are obtained in a nanosecond range. It is demonstrated that energy threshold increase slowly while power threshold decrease with the increasing of pulse-width.

Zhang Xindan, Zhao Chunying, Liu Qiang, Yan Liping, Zhao Xiang, Zhou Haijing
2018, 30: 083201. doi: 10.11884/HPLPB201830.180040
Abstract:
Based on the asymptotic method for high frequency electromagnetic field coupling to single wire above the ground, an asymptotic method for multiconductor transmission line (TL) is proposed. The proposed method simplifies the solving process of the scattering/reflection parameters required and therefore becomes more efficient than the previous asymptotic method for multiconductor TL. The induced currents along multiconductor TLs with different configuration are calculated using the proposed method, and the results are in good agreements with the simulated results of NEC, a full-wave analysis software. Moreover, the influence of the separation distance between the wires of the rectangular TL and the parallel TL on the induced current is analyzed. Results show that the induced currents along these two TLs change in the rectangular TL and the parallel TL change in different way, as the separation distance between the lines increases. Especially, the induced current along the parallel TL no longer changes while the separation distance increases to more than a wavelength, and is the same as that along the single wire above the perfect conducting ground with the same structure.

Abstract:
There is great difficulty in solving systematic electronic equipment testing assessment for reductionism. Taking the typical integrative command information system for example, the information transmission process is analyzed based on the OODA loop theory, and the essential connotation of the command information system is also derived. From the perspective of complex system, the complexity of the integrative command information system is studied. Through analyzing the complexity with the unique traits of the integrative command information system, it can be concluded that there is essential difficulty of problem decomposition by custom performance testing method in systematic electronic equipment test, and the reason is that the performance testing method conforms to reductionism. To solve this difficulty, a methodology for problem decomposition is put forward based on systematology meta-synthesis method, and it is used in command and control system test assessment. An example of constructing anti-interference indexes system is given for the integrative air defense command information system. The example has illustrated the application process of the decomposition method and demonstrated that the method is of great value in effectiveness evaluation of system of systems combat test for electronic information equipment.

2018, 30: 083203. doi: 10.11884/HPLPB201830.180101
Abstract:
The electromagnetic radiation produced by the resonance of the target chamber is one of the sources of electromagnetic pulse generated in the experiment of ultra-short intense laser and target interaction. Based on the finite element analysis method, we simulated the two processes of the electromagnetic pulse produced by the resonance of cavity and electromagnetic pulse propagating outward through windows. The former results show that the internal structure has a significant influence on the intensity distribution and resonance frequency of the electromagnetic field. The latter simulation results show that the electric field intensity outside the window is about 40% higher than that inside the window, and the electromagnetic pulse propagates to the target outside and then spreads and attenuates in the form of spherical wave form. The intensity attenuation rule is analyzed and the fitting function of the attenuation curve is obtained.

2018, 30: 084101. doi: 10.11884/HPLPB201830.180093
Abstract:
Via-holes are usually required to ground for microstrip interdigital filter.The influence of the grounding via-hole is considered when modeling the overall system in traditional design methods, which will lead to the multi-factor and multi-level problem since the number, size and position of the grounding via-holes are uncertain.The problems can be avoided by proposing grounding via-hole effect in microstrip interdigital filter design.Taking Ka-band filter as an example, the traditional odd-even mode impedance method, coupling coefficient and external quality factor method, and the modification method of considering the grounding via-holes in the design process are used to design the filter respectively.The initial design results show that the center frequency of the traditional method is shifted to the left, and other parameters are much different from the design specification.The center frequency, passband range and stop rejection of the modification method meet the requirements of the specification, and the maximum insertion loss is 3.08 dB, the minimum return loss is 10.08 dB, which is helpful to reduce the subsequent iterations.

2018, 30: 085001. doi: 10.11884/HPLPB201830.170320
Abstract:
Electrical explosion of wire (EEW) is the first stage of wire array Z-pinch, which has great influence on the following dynamics and the final X-ray emission.In this paper, the physical processes of two-wire Z-pinch was observed by X-ray backlighting.The sub-nanosecond, micrometer-scale X-ray source was generated with X-pinches connected in series with the Zpinch.Experimental results show that electrically exploded wires in vacuum usually develop into "core-corona"structure (highdensity core surrounded by low-density corona plasma).The corona plasma is then driven to the axis by global magnetic field to form a precursor plasma column, adding to the instabilities of the implosion stage.Therefore single wire EEW experiments were carried out to increase the energy deposition of wire core so as to suppress the formation of"core-corona"structure.Experimental results show that the performance of EEW can be improved by higher rising-rate of driving current and positive radial electric field along wire surface.In order to combine the two favorable methods, a flashover switch was inserted between wire-end and cathode.As a result, the specific energy of EEW was increased by 2 times (5.7 eV/atomvs 13 eV/atom) and 3.5 times (3.4 eV/atomvs12 eV/atom) under positive and negative driving current, exceeding the atomization enthalpy of tungsten (8.8 eV/atom) by a factor of 1.4.The laser interferograms show no high-density wire core; in other words, fully vaporized (core-free) wire explosion of bare tungsten wire was achieved.

Abstract:
The rod-pinch diode (RPD) is a cylindrical pinched beam diode being developed as an intense pulsed small diameter bremsstrahlung source for flash X-ray radiography.The studying significance of the physical characteristics lies in optimizing geometry structure of RPD.Using PIC program and numerical simulation, a model of the rod-pinch diode operation based on space limited current at low voltage and self-magnetically limited current at high voltage is researched.Analysis shows that the diode characteristic is determined by space charge limited current at low voltage and self-magnetically limited critical current at high voltage.The simulation result is consistent with reference.Under the special conditions (space charge limited, weakly pinched and self-magnetically limited), the ratios of ion current to electron current are studied.The coefficient for calculating the self-magnetically limited ion to electron current ratio in the self-magnetically limited condition is affected by the electron and ion transit time and free from the high voltage.

Abstract:
The third resonant slow extraction and RF-knockout technology was adopted for Xi'an Proton Application Facility (XIPAF), which was designed for proton single event effects research.The influence of dipole and quadrupole power ripple on extracted spill was explored theoretically and simulated via TrackAll.According to a series of simulation results, ΔI/Iset≤1.2×10-4 for the quadrupole-focusing power converter, ΔI/Iset≤2×10-3 for the quadrupole defocusing converter andΔI/Iset≤4×10-4 for the dipole converter are acceptable, whereΔI represents the variance of the ouput current caused by power ripple and Iset represents the standard value of the output current without ripple.Since the synchrotron's power converters in XIPAF satisfy the same standard in terms of power ripple, it is confirmed thatΔI/Isetshould be limited to 1×10-4 for all power converters.

Abstract:
Slope error and evaluation criteria of bent mirror of synchrotron radiation induced from gravity are introduced.According to the bending theory of beam, a method of gravity compensation by couple combined with multi-point forces is proposed.Taking the bent mirror of the XAFS beam-line (BL14 W) at Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility (SSRF) as an example, the minimum root mean square (RMS) slope error of the bent mirror under the action of two-point, three-point and fourpoint forces combined with couples are calculated, and the result is 0.092, 0.041 and 0.022μrad, respectively.The comparison between the compensation results shows that when a couple is applied to both ends of the mirror, the corresponding compensation forces decreases, and the slope errors of the couple combined with two-point, three-point and four-point forces are 52%, 61%and68% of those without couples.Obviously, the compensation method of couples combined with multi-point forces is better than the multi-point forces compensation method.

Abstract:
The natural circulation capacity is an important parameter that characterizes the safety capability of a nuclear reactor.We calculated the transient characteristics under the conditions with and without emergency cooling system by RELAP5/Mod 3.4, analyzed the transient natural circulation capability of the coolant flow direction reversal process, and acquired the maximum transient transfer capability.The results show: the emergency cooling system reduced fuel and coolant temperatures significantly and improved the safety of the reactor; when the decay power was reduced to 590 kW, the auxiliary pump was turned off and the reactor could be brought into a safe state with natural circulation.

Abstract:
A previously under-explored difficulty in cargo inspections is how to efficiently detect drugs and explosives concealed in large dense metals.Cosmic ray muon tomography is a promising non-destructive imaging technique to solve the problem because muons are naturally generated in the atmosphere and have sufficient energy to completely penetrate large dense containers.In this work it is investigated that to what extent drugs and explosives of a certain size could be discriminated from air background and metals by muon tomography within acceptable measuring time.A Geant4 Monte Carlo simulation is built based on the Tsinghua University MUon Tomography facility (TUMUTY) and a support vector machine (SVM) classifier based on machine learning is trained to differentiate drugs and explosives from air background and metals automatically.For various 20 cm×20 cm×20 cm objects, with 10 min to 30 min measuring time, drugs and explosives could be discriminated from background and metals by muon tomography with an error rate of about 1%.With 1 min, the error rate deteriorates to 12.9%.
