The thermally activated proton diffusion in BaZr0.9Y0.1O3-{delta} was studied with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (IS) and quasi-elastic neutron scattering (QENS) in the temperature range from 300 K to 900 K. The diffusivities for the bulk material and the grain boundaries as obtained by IS obey an Arrhenius law with activation energies of 0.46 eV and 1.21 eV, respectively. The activation energies obtained by IS for the bulk are 0.26 eV above 700 K and 0.46 eV, below 700 K. The total diffusivity as obtained by IS is by one order of magnitude lower than the microscopic diffusivity as obtained by QENS. The activation energies obtained by QENS are 0.13 eV above 700 K and 0.04 eV, below 700 K. At about 700 K, the diffusion constants for IS and QENS have a remarkable crossover, suggesting two processes with different activation energies.

Yttrium substituted BaZrO3, with nominal composition BaZr0.9Y0.1O3, a ceramic proton conductor, was subject to impedance spectroscopy for temperatures 300 K < T < 715 K at mechanical pressures 1 GPa < p < 2 GPa. The activation energies Ea of bulk and grain boundary conductivity from two perovskites synthesized by solid-state reaction and sol-gel method were determined under high pressures. At high temperature, the bulk activation energy increases with pressure by 5% for sol-gel derived sample and by 40% for solid-state derived sample. For the sample prepared by solid-state reaction, there is a large gap of 0.17 eV between the activation energy at 1.0 GPa and > 1.2 GPa. The grain boundary activation energy is around a factor two times as that of the bulk, and it reaches a maximum at 1.25 - 1.5 GPa, and then decrease as the pressure increases, indicating higher proton mobility in the grain boundaries at higher pressure. Since this effect is not reversible, it is suggested that the grain boundary resistance decreases as a result of pressure induced sintering. The steady increase of the bulk resistivity upon pressurizing suggests that the proton mobility depends on the space available in the lattice. In return, an expanded lattice with a/a0 > 1 should thus have a lower activation energy, suggesting that thin films expansive tensile strain could have a larger proton conductivity with desirable properties for applications.
Exclusive measurements of the $pp to pppi^0pi^0$ reaction have been performed at CELSIUS/WASA at energies from threshold up to $T_p$ = 1.3 GeV. Total and differential cross sections have been obtained. Here we concentrate on energies $T_p ge$ 1 GeV, where the $DeltaDelta$ excitation becomes the leading process. No evidence is found for a significant ABC effect beyond that given by the conventional $t$-channel $DeltaDelta$ excitation. This holds also for the double-pionic fusion to the quasibound $^2$He. The data are compared to model predictions, which are based on both pion and $rho$ exchange. Total and differential cross sections are at variance with these predictions and call for a profound modification of the $rho$-exchange. A phenomenological modification allowing only a small $rho$ exchange contribution leads to a quantitative description of the data.

Hard bremsstrahlung production in proton-proton collisions has been studied with the ANKE spectrometer at COSY-Juelich in the energy range of 353-800 MeV by detecting the final proton pair {pp}_s from the pp -> {pp}_s reaction with very low excitatio n energy. Differential cross sections were measured at small diproton c.m. angles from 0 to 20 degrees and the average over this angular interval reveals a broad peak at a beam energy around 650 MeV with a FWHM of about 220 MeV, suggesting the influence of Delta(1232)N intermediate states. Comparison with deuteron photodisintegration shows that the cross section for diproton production is up to two orders of magnitude smaller, due largely to differences in the selection rules.
In this work we have studied systematically the changes in the magnetic behavior of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) samples after proton irradiation in the MeV energy range. Superconducting quantum interferometer device (SQUID) results obta ined from samples with thousands of localized spots of micrometer size as well on samples irradiated with a broad beam confirm previously reported results. Both, the para- and ferromagnetic contributions depend strongly on the irradiation details. The results indicate that the magnetic moment at saturation of spots of micrometer size is of the order of $10^{-10}$ emu.
We report on the investigation of $Delta$(1232) production and decay in proton-proton collisions at a kinetic energy of 1.25 GeV measured with HADES. Exclusive dilepton decay channels $ppe^{+}e^{-}$ and $ppe^{+}e^{-}gamma$ have been studied and compa red with the partial wave analysis of the hadronic $pppi^{0}$ channel. They allow to access both $Delta^+ to ppi^0(e^+e^-gamma)$ and $Delta^+ to pe^+e^-$ Dalitz decay channels. The perfect reconstruction of the well known $pi^0$ Dalitz decay serves as a proof of the consistency of the analysis. The $Delta$ Dalitz decay is identified for the first time and the sensitivity to N-$Delta$ transition form factors is tested. The $Delta$(1232) Dalitz decay branching ratio is also determined for the first time; our result is (4.19 $pm$ 0.62 syst. $pm$ 0.34 stat.) $times $ 10$^{-5}$, albeit with some model dependence.
