摘要
During the STS-83 Spacelab mission, a sample of Pd78Cu6Si16 was processed in the electromagnetic levitation facility TEMPUS. Surface oscillations of the levitated liquid droplet were excited, and frequency and damping of the oscillations were observed. Under microgravity conditions, the damping constant is simply related to the viscosity. This method was successfully applied. The experiments were performed in a temperature range of 400 K, including the eutectic temperature T-e = 1033 K. At this temperature, our data agree well with those of S. K. Lee, K. H. Tsang. and H. W. Kui [J. Appl. Phys. 70, 4842 (1991)]. (C) 1998 American Institute of Physics.
