Resonant magnetopolaron effects in parabolic quantum wells in a tilted magnetic field

We study the resonant magnetopolaron effects in parabolic quantum wells in a tilted magnetic field. The renormalization of the first excited level, which is resonant with the ground state level plus one longitudinal-optical phonon is calculated at the resonance using an improved resonance approximation to be E= where is the polaron coupling constant. The exponent and the factor are calculated in dependence on the tilt angle of the magnetic field and the confinement energy.     

Current distributions in a two-dimensional random-resistor network

The current and logarithm-of-the-current distributionsn(i) andn(ln i) on bond diluted two-dimensional random-resistor networks at the percolation threshold are studied by a modified transfer matrix method. Thek th moment (–9k8) of n(ln i) i.e., ln i&^k, is found to scale with the linear sizeL as (InL)^(k). The exponents (k) are not inconsistent with the recent theoretical prediction (k)=k, with deviations which may be attributed to severe finitesize effects. For small currents, ln n(y)–, yielding information on the threshold below which the multifractality of (i) breaks down. Our numerical results for the moments of the currents are consistent with other available results.     

Stochastic Schrödinger operators and Jacobi matrices on the strip

We discuss stochastic Schrödinger operators and Jacobi matrices with wave functions, taking values in ^l so there are 2l Lyaponov exponents ₁..._l0 _l+1..._2l =–₁. Our results include the fact that if ₁=0 on a set positive measure, thenV is deterministic and one that says that {E|exactly 2j 's are zero} is the essential support of the a.c. spectrum of multiplicity 2j.Research partially supported by USNSF under grant DMS-8416049     

Some critical exponent inequalities for percolation

For a large class of independent (site or bond, short- or long-range) percolation models, we show the following: (1) If the percolation densityP (p) is discontinuous atp _c , then the critical exponent (defined by the divergence of expected cluster size, nP _n (p) (P _c –P)^– asp p _c ) must satisfy 2. (2) or (defined analogously to, but asp p _c ) and [P _n (p _c ) (n ^–1–1/) asn ] must satisfy, 2(1 – 1/). These inequalities for improve the previously known bound 1(Aizenman and Newman), since 2 (Aizenman and Barsky). Additionally, result 1may be useful, in standardd-dimensional percolation, for proving rigorously (ind>2) that, as expected,P _x has no discontinuity atp _c .     

A “hydrodynamic” theory of surface reaction rates

The Brownian motion of adsorbed particles is described in terms of the first four velocity moments of the distribution function (number density, momentum density, energy density and energy current density). The resulting hydrodynamic equations turn out to be sufficient for a simple derivation and extension of Kramers' results for chemical reaction rates in terms of the friction constant of an underlying Fokker-Planck equation. An interpolation formula is obtained for() containing Kramers' results for small and large as limiting cases. For temperaturesT small compared to the well depthV ₀ one finds a large regionT/V ₀/v ₀V ₀/T in which Eyring's absolute rate theory is approximately valid.On leave of absence from Physikdepartment der TUM, München-Garching     

High-spin isomer in 93Mo

The high-spin states of ⁹³Mo have been studied by a ⁸²Se( ¹⁶O, 5n) ⁹³Mo reaction at a beam energy of 100 MeV using techniques of in-beam -ray spectroscopy. Measurements of -t, --t coincidences, -ray angular distributions and -ray linear polarizations were performed. The high-spin isomer was found as a (39/2^-) state at about 9.7 MeV. The near-yrast states in ⁹³Mo were interpreted using the weak-coupling picture of a d_5/2 neutron to a neutron magic core nucleus ⁹²Mo.     

Ground state of a spin-phonon system. II. Adiabatic limit

The phase transition for a spin in a magnetic fieldB coupled to acoustic phonons by a coupling constant is studied. The caseB1 with an upper cutoff of unity for the phonons is studied systematically by using an adiabatic canonical transformation. In leading order the transition line is at =2/B=1. In the normal phase (<1) the ground-state energy is –B/2 plus a function of that is given explicitly as the solution of a pair theory. In the broken symmetry phase (>1) the energy is the classical energy plus the same function of =1/². It is found that the first derivatives of the energy with respect to and with respect toB have finite jumps across the transition line. Quantum fluctuations in both phases are treated. Higher-order terms are a series of powers of 1/B times functions of . The case of a small transverse fieldB is also studied. The sharp transition disappears and is replaced by rapid variation in a region of order (B₁/B)^2/3 about =1.     

The van der Waals limit for classical systems

For a -dimensional system of particles with the two-body potentialq(r)+ ^v K(r) and density , it is proved under fairly weak conditions onq andK that the canonical pressure (, ) and chemical potential (, ) tend to definite limits when 0. The limiting functions are absolutely continuous and are given in terms of the derivative of the limiting free energy density which was found in Part I.     

Stability and structure of Newtonian gravitars

The solution r² for a scalar field (gravitational constant), which is asymptotically exact for supercompact configurations and which Saakyan and Mnatsakanyan obtained from the numerical solution of the hydrostatics equations in the Newtonian approximation of the Jordan-Brans-Dicke theory, is used to study the gravitational stability of such configurations. We have found the stability condition 2/3 for polytropic configurations ( is the polytropic exponent) instead of 4/3, which is known for configurations of low compactness. Analytic solutions of the equations of internal structure are found for configurations which are intermediate with respect to stability (=2/3) and for some other important series of configurations.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 7, pp. 98–102, July, 1982.In conclusion, the present author expresses his indebtedness and gratitude to V.

Precipitation mechanism,shape, and bond with the matrix of γ′-phase particles in Ni36Cr12TiAl steel

It is shown that in discontinuous decomposition in Ni36Cr12TiAl steel, rodlike lamellae of the -phase are precipitated, which are coherently (possibly quasi-coherently) bonded to the matrix. It is concluded from data on the continuous precipitation of the -phase that continuous decomposition in this steel takes place in two stages: in the first, partially ordered zones are formed and, in the second, particles of the -phase.     

Derivation and solution of a low-friction Fokker-Planck equation for a bound Brownian particle

The low-friction region of an anharmonically bound Brownian particle is examined using systematic elimination procedures. We obtain an asymptotic expression for the spectrum of the Fokker-Planck operator. Asymptotic means both small anharmonicities and small friction constants compared to the oscillatory frequency . We conclude that Kramers' low-friction equation is generally valid only for 0<0.01 and has to be modified for 0.01 by including phase-dependent terms. From these the nonlinear part of the force field in connection with a finite temperature is shown to shorten the correlation time of the equilibrium velocity autocorrelation function and to renormalize the frequency of the corresponding spectral density.     

Phase segregation dynamics in particle systems with long range interactions. I. Macroscopic limits

We present and discuss the derivation of a nonlinear nonlocal integrodifferential equation for the macroscopic time evolution of the conserved order parameter (r, t) of a binary alloy undergoing phase segregation. Our model is ad-dimensional lattice gas evolving via Kawasaki exchange with respect to the Gibbs measure for a Hamiltonian which includes both short-range (local) and long-range (nonlocal) interactions. The nonlocal part is given by a pair potential ^dJ(|x–y|), >0 x and y in ^d, in the limit 0. The macroscopic evolution is observed on the spatial scale ^–1 and time scale ^–2, i.e., the density (r, t) is the empirical average of the occupation numbers over a small macroscopic volume element centered atr=x. A rigorous derivation is presented in the case in which there is no local interaction. In a subsequent paper (Part II) we discuss the phase segregation phenomena in the model. In particular we argue that the phase boundary evolutions, arising as sharp interface limits of the family of equations derived in this paper, are the same as the ones obtained from the corresponding limits for the Cahn-Hilliard equation.     

Effect of violating t-invariance of the electromagnetic interaction of hadrons in the processes n + p → d + γ and n + → d + e++e−

T-odd correlations that are possible in the processes n + p d + and n + p d + e⁺ + e^e- and that arise due to the capture of thermal neutrons are determined in terms of threshold amplitudes (for the process n + p d + @#@) or electromagnetic inelastic form factors (for the process n + p d+ e⁺ + e^e§-). The mechanism of these reactions is not given in concrete form, but those general properties of the electromagnetic hadronic current are used that are preserved with three-dimensional reflections.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 8–13, October, 1986.     

Elimination of variables in simple laser equations

The usual way of obtaining rate equations (RE) and a single equation for the field amplitude (EFA) from the semiclassical laser equations (Lorenz-Haken model) is reexamined by undertaking a systematic elimination procedure developed in synergetics. The RE and EFA are justified in the case 1 (, ) and case 2 (, ), respectively. We show that, because the eliminated variable happens to contain a considerable contribution from an unstable mode, the usual elimination technique in the case 3 (, ) leads to an inconsistency. As important by-products we obtain the RE and EFA for arbitrary cavity relaxation constant (). Some remarks are given on the direct elimination technique in the non-diagonal representation in the study of instabilities.     

Analytical electron microscopy study of diffusion-bonded multiphase system

This study presents diffusion experiments of NiAl coupled with pure Ni (Ni/NiAl). The couple produces the Ni₃Al-based intermetallic phase ( phase) as an intermediate layer at the interface during diffusion annealing. Analytical electron microscopy is used to examine microstructural features, crystallographic orientation and compositional variations across the interface. Interdiffusivities are measured from the compositional variations. It is shown that the growing behavior of the phase changes between higher and lower annealing temperatures. The growth kinetics of the phase is also discussed.     

The influence of oscillations on ionization in a discharge path

The paper solves the problem of gas ionization in a discharge path in a very dilute gas, where the free path of the electrons is much larger than the dimensions of the path and the transit time of the electrons between the electrodes is of the order of the period of the applied h-f voltage. It was found that for a certain ratio of the transit time of the electrons between the electrodes in the discharge path to the period of the h-f oscillation, resonance occurs when the wattless current component is zero. The electron density rises in the path and thus also the gas ionization.

Low's theorem [1] on the emission of soft -rays is applied to a study of p + p p+p+ and ^– + p ⁰+ n + reactions. The first two terms in the expansion of the differential cross sections for these processes in powers of the photon energy are obtained (for proton scattering in the ultrarelativistic limit).In conclusion, we wish to express our gratitude to S.

Mössbauer spectroscopy study of iron corrosion underneath painting system

The effect of pigments on the development of corrosion products between the painting system and metal surface when exposed to marine environments has been discussed. The pigments studied were; Red Mud Zinc chromate, Zinc chromate, Red oxide Zinc Phosphate, Manganese Phosphate Barium chromate and Basic Lead Silico Chromate. Mossbauer Spectroscopy revealed that the upper rust layer in all the cases consisted of-Fe203,-FeOOH and-FeOOH. The lower rust layer immediately in contact with the metal surface consisted of an asymmetrical doublet due to -FeOOH.

The results of NMR/ON measurements on^56,57,60Co isotopes in iron are presented in the paper. To avoid the uncertainties caused by local demagnetizing field inhomogeneities the measurements on two cobalt isotopes in one sample have been carried out. The values of nuclear-factors ratios ⁵⁷/ ⁶⁰=1·805(20), ⁶⁰/ ⁵⁶ = 0·761(20), ⁵⁶/ ⁵⁷ = 0·726(20) and hyperfme anomalies^{56 60} = –0·036(10),^{60 57} = 0·017(10) and^{57 56} = 0·018(10) have been calculated from the experimental results.Dedicated to the 30th anniversary of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research.     

Large-Deviation Principle for One-Dimensional Vector Spin Models with Kac Potentials

We consider the one-dimensional planar rotator and classical Heisenberg models with a ferromagnetic Kac potential J (r)=J(yr), J with compact support. Below the Lebowitz-Penrose critical temperature the limit (mean-field) theory exhibits a phase transition with a continuum of equilibrium states, indexed by the magnetization vectors m s, s any unit vector and m the Curie–Weiss spontaneous magnetization. We prove a large-deviation principle for the associated Gibbs measures. Then we study the system in the limit 0 below the above critical temperature. We prove that the norm of the empirical spin average in blocks of order ^–1 converges to m , uniformly in intervals of order ^–p , for any p 1. We also give a lower bound to the scale on which the change of phase occurs, by showing that the empirical spin average is approximately constant on intervals having length of order ^-1-with (0,1) small enough.
