The Langmuir probe method is used for measurement. The relative simplicity of the method and the possibility of dispersion of high power on the probe allow its application for the investigation of high-power electron beams. The key element of the method is a rotating thin tungsten wire, which intersects the beam transversely on its axis and collects part of the current by itself. The signals, which are registered in the DIABEAM as a voltage, were taken in the form of amplitude. The conversion of the probe current into the distribution along the beam radius was realised using the Abel's method. A voltage-current characteristic was built for the beam current. The local electron density as well as the electron temperature, the floating potential and the plasma potential were measured and calculated by means of this characteristic.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{ReisgenSchleserAbdurakhmanovetal.2012, author = {Reisgen, Uwe and Schleser, Markus and Abdurakhmanov, Aydemir and Gumenyuk, Andrej}, title = {Application of electron beam welding to fabrication of steel-aluminium dissimilar joint}, series = {Beam technologies \& laser application : proceedings of the VII international conference, Saint Petersburg, Sept. 18-21, 2012}, booktitle = {Beam technologies \& laser application : proceedings of the VII international conference, Saint Petersburg, Sept. 18-21, 2012}, publisher = {Publ.

In this work, the G-NiCu30Nb casting alloy, a variant of the Monel family of alloys with Nb and high Si content is, for the first time, processed via the laser powder bed fusion process (LPBF). Being novel to the LPBF processes, optimum LPBF parameters were determined, and hardness and tensile tests were performed in as-built conditions and after heat treatment at 1000 °C. Microstructures of the as-cast and the as-built condition were compared. Highly dense samples (99.8\% density) were achieved after varying hatch distance (80 µm and 140 µm) with scanning speed (550 mm/s-1500 mm/s). There was no significant difference in microhardness between varied hatch distance print sets. Microhardness of the as-built condition (247 HV0.2) exceeded the as-cast microhardness (179 HV0.2.). Tensile specimens built in vertical (V) and horizontal (H) orientations revealed degrees of anisotropy and were superior to conventionally reported figures. Post heat treatment increased ductility from 20\% to 31\% (V), as well as from 16\% to 25\% (H), while ultimate tensile strength (UTS) and yield strength (YS) were considerably reduced.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{QuadfliegSchoeneSchleseretal.2012, author = {Quadflieg, Till and Schoene, Jens and Schleser, Markus and Jockenh{\"o}vel, Stefan and Reisgen, Uwe and Gries, Thomas}, title = {Shear connectors for hybrid joints of metal and FRP}, series = {Diversity in composites : conference proceedings : Composites Australia and CRC-ACS 2012 conference}, booktitle = {Diversity in composites : conference proceedings : Composites Australia and CRC-ACS 2012 conference}, editor = {Heslehurst, Rikard Benton}, publisher = {Composites Australia}, address = {Hawthorne}, isbn = {978-0-9873285-0-2}, pages = {[152] -- [160]}, year = {2012}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{PfaffVinsonneauBurnham2006, author = {Pfaff, Raphael and Vinsonneau, B. and Burnham, K.
