Nonlinear Response of the Semiconductor Laser with Pump Current Modulation

The influence of tuning the lasing monochromatic radiation frequency _g within the amplification band on the nonlinear response of the semiconductor laser with harmonic modulation of pump current is investigated theoretically. It is established that the principal features of the behavior of the nonlinear amplitude-detuning characteristic (ADC) are determined by the relation between the current modulation frequency _m and the main resonance frequency of the laser _r. If _{m r}, then with increase in _g the response decreases monotonically mainly due to the decrease of its dynamic component. The exception is provided by the spectral regions where peaks on the ADC appear because of the explicitly nonlinear lasing regimes (period doubling, chaos, etc.) When _m < _r, the resonance conditions for induced oscillations are satisfied only for definite spectral intervals within the amplification band and a dip appears on the low-frequency side of the ADC. With decreasing _m, the dip boundary shifts to a more high-frequency region of the band corresponding to smaller local resonance frequencies. The peaks on the ADC corresponding to the radiation period doubling shift to the region of smaller values of _g on increase in _m.

On exact allowance for masses,anomalous magnetic moments,and electric dipole moments of the neutrinos in the ν1 → ν1ν2¯ν2 reaction in an external field

The probability of the process _{1 12}¯₂ in the field of a plane wave is calculated in the general case with allowance for masses, anomalous magnetic moments, and electric dipole moments of the neutrinos. In special cases, earlier results are confirmed. The symmetry of the expression for the integrated probability with respect to the anomalous magnetic moment and the electric dipole moment of the neutrinos is analyzed.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 1, pp. 101–105, January, 1992.     

Singularity theorems and the [General Relativity + additional matter fields] formulation of metric theories of gravitation

By using the [General Relativity + additional matter fields] formulation (which depends on a redefined metrich ) of metric theories of gravitation, the study of singularities characterized by incomplete nonspacelike geodesics is simplified, but may be used only if (at least) the non-spacelike geodesics of the original metricg are conserved under the transformation betweeng and the new metrich . In order that every class of geodesies of a diagonal Bianchi I metric correspond to the same class of geodesies of a diagonal metrich , it is necessary that the transformation between these two metrics be a constant (positive) conformal transformation. We analyse the implications of the previous results for the singularitiesg when the latter is a solution of theories with a quadratic or polynomial Lagrangian.     

Realization of holonomic constraints and freezing of high frequency degrees of freedom in the light of classical perturbation theory. Part II

As in Part I of this paper, we consider the problem of the energy exchanges between two subsystems, of which one is a system of harmonic oscillators, while the other one is any dynamical system ofn degrees of freedom. Such a problem is of interest both for the realization of holonomic constraints of classical mechanics, and for the freezing of the internal degrees of freedom in molecular collisions. The results of Part I, which referred to the particular case =1, are here extended to the more difficult case >1. For the rate of energy transfer we find exponential estimates of Nekhoroshev's type, namely of the form exp (_*/)^1/a , where is a positive real number giving the size of the involved frequencies, and _* anda are constants. For the particularly relevant constanta we find in generala=1/ however, in the particular case when the frequencies are equal (collision of identical molecules), we finda=1 independently of , as conjectured by Jeans in the year 1903.     

Three- and five-dimensional considerations of the geometry of Einstein's* g-unified field theory

We study the algebraic and differential geometric structures of three- and five-dimensional^* g-unified field theory, with emphasis on the five-dimensional^* g-unified field theory, in which we derive a new set of powerful recurrence relations which hold in a five-dimensional generalized Riemannian manifoldX ₅ , prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence and uniqueness of the solution of the system of the Einstein equations in the first two classes, and find a precise tensorial representation of the Einstein connection in terms of^*g .     

Instability of two counter-streaming gyrating beams of electrons

The linear theory of the two-beam instability of weak gyrating beams is investigated. Maximum growth rates of instabilities, instability limits and frequencies of unstable waves are numerically determined. The aperiodic instability withk _{z z0}= _c( _z0 is the velocity of the beam along the magnetic field, _c is the cyclotron frequency andk _z is the longitudinal wave number) and the instability with= _c/2 and withk _{z z0}= _c/2 possess greatest growth rates. Dependence of growth rates on longitudinal and transversal components of the wave vector is investigated in detail.     

Phantom scalar fields in five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory

The existence of a so-called "phantom" scalar field in some Riemannian spaceV ₄, i.e., a field in which the effective energy momentum tensorT ^(sf) vanishes in the five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory, is investigated by means of the integrability conditions for relations of the form _;;=k_,,+bg found in [6]. Phantom fields are found in homogeneous isotropic cosmological models.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 2, pp. 50–56, February, 1996.     

Insensitivity of Quantized Hall Conductance to Disorder and Interactions

A two-dimensional quantum Hall system is studied for a wide class of potentials including single-body random potentials and repulsive electron–electron interactions. We assume that there exists a nonzero excitation gap above the ground state(s), and then the conductance is derived from the linear perturbation theory with a sufficiently weak electric field. Under these two assumptions, we prove that the Hall conductance _xy and the diagonal conductance _yy satisfy | _xy+e ² /h|const·L ^–1/2 and | _yy|const·L ^–1/12. Here e ²/h is the universal conductance with the charge –e of the electron and the Planck constant h; is the filling factor of the Landau level; and L is the linear dimension of the system. In the thermodynamic limit, our results show _xy=–e ² /h and _yy=0. The former implies that integral and fractional filling factors with a gap lead to, respectively, integral and fractional quantizations of the Hall conductance.     

Hausdorff Dimension of Sets of Generic Points for Gibbs Measures

For a translation invariant Gibbs measure on the configuration space X of a lattice finite spin system, we consider the set X of generic points. Using a Breiman type convergence theorem on the set X of generic points of an arbitrary translation invariant probability measure on X, we evaluate the Hausdorff dimension of the set X with respect to any metric out of a wide class of scale metrics on X (including Billingsley metrics generated by Gibbs measures).     

Asymptotics of decay of correlations for lattice spin fields at high temperatures. I. The Ising model

We find the asymptotic decrease of correlations < _{A +y} , _B >,yZ ^v +1, |y|, in the Ising model at high temperatures. For the case when monomials _A and _B both are odd, using the saddle-point method, we find the asymptotics of the correlations for any dimension . For even monomials _A , _B we formulate a general hypothesis about the form of the asymptotics and confirm it in two cases: (1) =1 and the vectory has an arbitrary direction, (2)y is directed along a fixed axis and arbitrary . Here we use besides the saddle-point method, some arguments from scattering theory.     

Transverse waves in a relativistic rigid body

We present relativistic elasticity as a scalar field theory. We apply it to rigid bodies, i.e., relativistic bodies with a nonlinear elastic law and a definite longitudinal wave velocity _l equal to the light velocity,c. We obtain the transverse wave equation with a definite velocity _t , and the relation between _l , _t , and the Poisson coefficient is the classical one. This is an indication that we have the relativistic extension of a classical Hooke elastic law.     

Ising Models on Hyperbolic Graphs II

We consider Ising models with ferromagnetic interactions and zero external magnetic field on the hyperbolic graph (v, f), where v is the number of neighbors of each vertex and f is the number of sides of each face. Let T _c be the critical temperature and T _c =supTT _c: ^f=( ⁺+ ^–)/2, where ^f is the free boundary condition (b.c.) Gibbs state, ⁺ is the plus b.c. Gibbs state and ^– is the minus b.c. Gibbs state. We prove that if the hyperbolic graph is self-dual (i.e., v=f) or if v is sufficiently large (how large depends on f, e.g., v35 suffices for any f3 and v17 suffices for any f17) then 0<T _c <T _c, in contrast with that T _c =T _c for Ising models on the hypercubic lattice Z ^d with d2, a result due to Lebowitz.⁽²²⁾ While whenever T<T _c , ^f=( ⁺+ ^–)/2. The last result is an improvement in comparison with the analogous statement in refs. 28 and 33, in which it was only proved that ^f=( ⁺+ ^–)/2 when TT _c and it remains to show in both papers that ^f =( ⁺+ ^–)/2 whenever T<T _c . Therefore T _c and T _c divide [0, ] into three intervals: [0, T _c ), (T _c , T _c), and (T _c, ] in which ^{+ –} but ^f =( ⁺+ ^–)/2, ^{+ –} and ^f ( ⁺+ ^–)/2, and ⁺= ^–, respectively.     

Manifestation of Extracoordination in the Resonance Raman Spectra of Water‐Soluble Cation Co‐Porphyrins

Resonance Raman spectra (RRS) of Co(II) and Co(III)5,10,15,20tetrakis(4Nmethylpyridinium)porphyrin ((Co^II(TmpyP4), and Co^III(TMPyP4)) in aqueous solutions at different pH as well as in organic solvents (methanol, ethanol, DMSO, DMF) are obtained. The increased sensitivity of the oscillation frequencies ₂, ₄, ₈, and ₆ — the markers of the oxidation state of a metal — to the nature of an axial ligand has been revealed. For Co^III(TmpyP4), the shifts of the indicated frequencies in extracoordination have turned out to be twofold larger than those for Co^II(TmpyP4). The spectral effects observed are related to different electron influence of the extraligands on the system of the porphyrin ring. In the case of Co(III)porphyrin, interaction of the d orbitals of the metal and the e _g ^*orbitals of the macrocycle is more efficient since its ionic radius is smaller than for the Co(II)complex. For Co^III(TmpyP4), a linear correlation between the oscillation frequencies ₂, ₄, ₈, and ₆ and the experimental Gutmann parameters characterizing the electronacceptor properties of solvents is found.     

Inertial range spectrum of a fractal model for turbulence

The present study deals with a model for 3D turbulence which is based on a fractal set ink-space (massM(k)logk, i.e.d _f=0). The energy spectrumE(_k) is calculated by a method similar to the Monte Carlo renormalization technique of Ma [1]. To apply this we decouple the set into next-neighbour pairs of energy shells.E _k is calculated iteratively by simulating the pairs. Their rough scales are forced and their fine scales are damped by an eddy viscosity ^e. We start in the viscous range where ^e is neglected. An intertial range shows up with a spectrumE(k)k^–, =1.68±0.07, and an eddy viscosity ^e(k)k ^-,=1.3±. The possible benefit for the simulation of turbulent flows is pointed out.

An approximation method to solve Einstein's field equations on a curved background metric

An approximation method is developed to calculate the gravitational field of a matter sourceT moving on a curved background metric that is an exact solution of the field equations and deviates only weakly from flat space-time. The fieldh of the sourceT is supposed to be much smaller than the curved part of the background, so that in the series expansion ofh each order can be expanded in powers of the background.     

Error performance analysis for an optical heterodyne FSK communication system with a limiter-discriminator-integrator detector

The error probability for a coherent optical heterodyne FSK system with a limiter-discriminator-integrator (LDI) detector is analysed. The analysis includes laser quantum phase noise, the correlated receiver additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN), Gaussian narrow-band IF filtering and intersymbol interference (ISI) caused by it. It is shown that, for 1 dBEb/N ₀penalty at bit error rate (BER) 10^–9, (i) the normalized IF beat spectral linewidth T0.35% for frequency deviation ratioh=0.5(MSK), and T0.5% forh=0.7 (the receiver is insensitive to laser quantum phase noise ath=1.0, if ISI is not included.); (ii) if ISI is incorporated, T0.15% forh=0.5, T0.5% forh=0.7, both with 3dB bandwidth-bit period product (3.0>BT1.5), and T0.5% forh=1.0 with BT1.0 ifT0.35% when ISI exists,h=0.7 is optimum;h=1.0 otherwise.     

Transport phenomena in a plane shock wave

With the use of the nonpolynomial closure 1/ _z in the Mott-Smith approximation of the solution of the Boltzmann equation, we obtain a value of the density gradient in the limit of a very weak shock wave that is close to the correct value. For the determination of the transverse temperature gradient we calculated the _x ² / _z moment of the Mott-Smith collision integral. The effective values of viscosity and thermal conductivity in the limit of a very weak shock wave were calculated for inverse-power potentials and found to agree almost exactly with the Chapman-Enskog values. Such a comparison can serve as a criterion for the evaluation of different bimodal theories. Various bimodal theories give different values of viscosity and thermal conductivity, but all of them give 33 % too high a value of the Eucken ratio.
