Spin wave and vortex excitations of superfluid 3He-A in parallel-plate geometry

Quantized vortices with half-integer circulation, which are forbidden from existing in a conventional superfluid because of the single valueness of the wave function, are theoretically predicted to exist in superfluid 3He-A if the order parameters l over and d over form l over perpendicular d over texture. To form the l over perpendicular d over texture, we confined the superfluid between parallel plates with a 12.5 microm gap and applied a magnetic field of H=26.7 mT perpendicular to the plates to take NMR and orient d over perpendicular to l over. NMR spectra exhibit a negative-shift peak which probes that the uniform l over perpendicular d over texture is realized in our cell and show a new satellite signal under rotation. The rotation dependence of the satellite signal is interpreted that a Fréedericksz transition of l over texture is induced by rotation above 1.0 rad/s and vortices start to appear above 1.8 rad/s.     

Rain Height in Relation to 0°C Isotherm Height Over Some Indian Tropical Locations and Rain Attenuation for an Indian South Coastal Station for Microwave and Millimeter Wave Communication Systems

There is a dearth of results on rain height over Indian tropical stations.The results on rain height in relation to 0°C isotherm height over four stations having different latitudes are presented in this paper. Four stations have been chosen in such a way that all have different latitudes and are located in different geographical regions having different local weather conditions. The seaonal variation of rain height in relation to 0°C isotherm height has been found to be appreciable over the station located in Indian east coast and Gujarat region, while seasonal variation is not significant at lower and intermediate probability levels over the stations located in Indian south-east coast and island. The prevailing local weather conditions over different stations also have been discussed. Based on observed rain heights and rain rates, the attenuation of radio wave at different frequencies lying in the range from 10 GHz to 150 GHz for different probability levels over Indian south-east coastal station have been deduced and presented in this paper.

受到台风“布拉万”的影响,吉林中部地区大范围处于灌浆期的玉米倒伏。为了确定倒伏后玉米冠层对反射信息的影响,从不同角度对其高光谱反射信息进行了测量与分析;与此同时,对偏振反射信息也进行了测量,将反射与偏振信息结合起来分析了受风灾影响后农作物冠层反射特征的变化。结果表明,风灾过后倒伏玉米的反射信息在可见光波段降低,而在近红外波段范围增大,与正常直立生长的玉米反射信息比较,具有非常明显的各项异性特征;同时,倒伏玉米的反射光中包含丰富的偏振信息,利用偏振信息可以为区分倒伏区域提供依据。这为利用遥感技术确定受灾范围与计算损失产量提供了依据。     

Monte Carlo integration for lattice gauge theories with fermions

A Monte Carlo procedure is constructed for lattice gauge theories with fermions by replacing integration over fermion degrees of freedom in the path integral by conventional integration over effective boson degrees of freedom. The method is applied to gauge theories over two discrete subgroups of SU(2).     

Strong coupling approach to actinide metals

We present a strongly correlated approach to the electronic structure of actinide metals by deriving a low-energy Hamiltonian H[over] under the assumption that kinetic energy is small compared to Coulomb and spin-orbit interactions. The H[over]Pu for Pu metal is similar to the models used for Ce and other lanthanides but qualitatively different from the H[over] presented for the rest of the actinides. With H[over]Pu, we computed the photoemission spectrum and specific heat for alpha and delta-Pu and found good agreement with experiment.     

Search for B --> h(*)nunu[over ] decays at Belle

We present a search for the rare decays B --> h(*)nunu[over ], where h(*) stands for a light meson. A data sample of 535 x 10{6} BB[over ] pairs collected with the Belle detector at the KEKB e{+}e{-} collider is used. Signal candidates are required to have an accompanying B meson fully reconstructed in a hadronic mode and signal side particles consistent with a single h(*) meson. No significant signal is observed and we set upper limits on the branching fractions at 90% confidence level. The limits on B{0} --> K{*0}nunu[over ] and B{+} --> K{+}nunu[over ] decays are more stringent than the previous constraints, while the first searches for B{0} --> K{0}nunu[over ], pi{0}nunu[over ], rho{0}nunu[over ], varphinunu[over ] and B{+} --> K{*+}nunu[over ], rho{+}nunu[over ] are reported.     

Search for pair production of scalar top quarks decaying to a tau lepton and a b quark in pp over collisions at sqrt s=1.96 TeV

We search for pair production of supersymmetric top quarks (t over1), followed by R-parity violating decay t over1-->taub with a branching ratio beta, using 322 pb(-1) of pp over collisions at sqrt s=1.96 TeV collected by the upgraded Collider Detector at Fermilab. Two candidate events pass our final selection criteria, consistent with the standard model expectation. We set upper limits on the cross section sigma(t over1t over1) x beta2 as a function of the top-squark mass m(t over1). Assuming beta=1, we set a 95% confidence level limit m(t over1)>153 GeV/c2. The limits are also applicable to the case of a third-generation scalar leptoquark (LQ3) decaying LQ3-->taub.

Continuous-wave operation of a broadly tunable thermoelectrically cooled external cavity quantum-cascade laser

Continuous-wave operation of an external cavity quantum-cascade laser on a thermoelectric cooler is reported. The active region of the gain element was based on a bound-to-continuum design emitting near 5.15 microm. The external cavity setup was arranged in a Littrow configuration. The front facet of the gain chip was antireflection coated. The laser could be tuned over more than 170 cm(-1) from 4.94 to 5.4 microm and was single mode over more than 140 cm(-1). The output power was in excess of 10 mW over approximately 100 cm(-1) and in excess of 5 mW over approximately 130 cm(-1) at -30 degrees C.

Study of J/psi-->pp[over],LambdaLambda[over] and observation of eta(c)-->LambdaLambda[over] at Belle

We study the baryonic charmonium decays of B mesons B+-->etacK+ and B+-->J/psiK+, where the etac and J/psi subsequently decay into a pp[over] or LambdaLambda[over] pair. We measure the J/psi-->pp[over] and LambdaLambda[over] anisotropy parameters alphaB=-0.60+/-0.13+/-0.14 (pp[over]), -0.44+/-0.51+/-0.31 (LambdaLambda[over ]) and compare to results from e;{+}e;{-}-->J/psi formation experiments. We also report the first observation of etac-->LambdaLambda[over]. The measured branching fraction is B(etac-->LambdaLambda[over ])=(0.87(+0.24)/(-0.21)(stat)(+0.09/-0.14) (syst)+/-0.27(PDG))x10-3. This study is based on a 357 fb-1 data sample recorded on the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the Belle detector at the KEKB asymmetric-energy e+ e- collider.     

Search for neutral Higgs bosons decaying to tau pairs in pp[over ] collisions at sqrt[s]=1.96 TeV

A search for the production of neutral Higgs bosons Phi decaying into tau(+)tau(-) final states in pp[over ] collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV is presented. The data, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of approximately 325 pb(-1), were collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. Since no excess compared to the expectation from standard model processes is found, limits on the production cross section times branching ratio are set. The results are combined with those obtained from the D0 search for Phib(b[over ])-->bb[over ]b(b[over ]) and are interpreted in the minimal supersymmetric standard model.     

Cortical activations upon stimulation of the sensorimotor-implicated acupoints

Sixty-seven healthy right-handed subjects were studied using a 1.5-T MRI. Activations, which were absent during stimulation of the adjacent nonacupoints over the right arm or leg, were consistently seen over the right premotor area during stimulation of the sensorimotor-implicated acupoints over the left arm or leg. The left premotor area was also activated during stimulation of the arm or leg acupoints. The right precentral and postcentral gyri showed activations during stimulation of the arm acupoints. The volume and location of activations vary when different combinations of the arm acupoints were stimulated. Our results indicate the existence of sensorimotor-implicated acupoints as sensitive sites to obtain somatotopic activations over the sensory cortices with co-activation of the motor cortices.     

Plasma modes in low-dimensional electron system over surface of liquid helium

The collective plasma modes in a quasi-two-dimensional (Q2D) electron system located over the free surface of liquid helium are studied theoretically within many-body dielectric formalism. The dispersion of modes is considered both over bulk liquid and over helium film where the essential modification of interelectron interaction occurs due to screening effects in the substrate with a large value of dielectric constant. It is shown that the plasma spectrum consists of longitudinal and transverse branches which dispersion laws depend on the values of the dielectric constant of helium and the film thickness. For the helium film covering metal, the longitudinal mode is acoustic differing of that for the surface electron (SE) system over bulk helium.

Nonlinear dynamics of magnetohydrodynamic flows of a heavy fluid on slope in the shallow water approximation

Magnetohydrodynamic equations for a heavy fluid over an arbitrary surface are studied in the shallow water approximation. While solutions to the shallow water equations for a neutral fluid are well known, shallow water magnetohydrodynamic (SMHD) equations over a nonflat boundary have an additional dependence on the magnetic field, and the number of equations in the magnetic case exceeds that in the neutral case. As a consequence, the number of Riemann invariants defining SMHD equations is also greater. The classical simple wave solutions do not exist for hyperbolic SMHD equations over an arbitrary surface due to the appearance of a source term. In this paper, we suggest a more general definition of simple wave solutions that reduce to the classical ones in the case of zero source term. We show that simple wave solutions exist only for underlying surfaces that are slopes of constant inclination. All self-similar discontinuous and continuous solutions are found. Exact explicit solutions of the initial discontinuity decay problem over a slope are found. It is shown that the initial discontinuity decay solution is represented by one of four possible wave configurations. For each configuration, the necessary and sufficient conditions for its realization are found. The change of dependent and independent variables transforming the initial equations over a slope to those over a flat plane is found.

Experimental investigation of local heat transfer in the packing with triangular channels

Results of experimental studies on temperature distribution over the surface of a complex-shape heat exchanger like “Frenkel packing” are presented. Measurements were carried out with the airflow between two corrugated sheets with triangular crimps directed at 90° relative to each other. Microthermocouples glued on the outer surface of the heater were used for measurements. The effect of contact points, Reynolds number, and gap between corrugated sheets on temperature distribution over the heat exchanger surface is analysed under the turbulent mode of airflow. The main attention is paid to temperature distribution over the heating surface in an elementary cell. According to measurements performed, there is insignificant effect of contact points and gap on the type of temperature distribution over the perimeter of heated cell.
