A note on the Watanabe theory of weak interactions

It is shown that according to the Watanabe theory of weak interactions a resonant scattering of electrons by protons must take place. The resonant energy depends on the massm _B of the intermediate boson. Form _B=2300m _e this energy is about 213 MeV in the centre of the mass system (c. m. s.). The energy width at resonance is 1·4 MeV.

The influence of plastic deformation on the magnetostriction constant of nickel

The magnetostriction constant of nickel was measured as a function of plastic deformation up to an elongation of 30%. The values of the magnetostriction constant in deformed samples deviate considerably, a fact which cannot be explained by errors of measurement. The absolute value of the magnetostriction constant decreases with increasing plastic deformation (by around 5%).

The propagation of excitation energy in perturbed crystals

The process of the propagation of excitation energy in perturbed dielectric crystals with a weak bond between the atoms having zero permanent dipole moment is studied. It is shown that on certain assumptions this process of propagation can be regarded as the motion of a Frenkel exciton in the electrostatic field of the defect. Frenkel's exciton can be characterized in this case as a neutral polarizable particle having induced dipole moment equal to the change in the induced dipole moment of the crystal during the excitation of one of its atoms.

The effect of microsegregation on the generation of dislocations in zinc single crystals

The applicability of Tiller's considerations on the production of dislocations is proved. The density of dislocations appearing during impurity microsegregation increases with increasing rate of growth as a consequence of the corresponding change in the effective distribution coefficient. The real value of C at the microsegregation boundaries is at least twice as great as the average value of the concentration of impurities in the crystal in question.

The theory of the spinning impact of imperfectly elastic bodies

The first theoretical solution is given of the spinning impact of an imperfectly elastic sphere on a rigid, imperfectly rough plane. The method of solution is based on the general static theory of the impact of rough bodies, elaborated by one of the authors in 1952 [5]. The problem leads to a non-linear differential equation, which can be solved only by an approximate numerical method. The results of the theory are in good agreement with the experiments carried out in 1947 [4].

A contribution to direct processes in the Co59(p,n) reaction forE p ∼ 6·5 MeV

Nuclear emulsions were used to study the energy spectrum and forward-backward asymmetry of neutrons from the Co⁵⁹(p,n) reaction forE _p 6·5 MeV. It was found that the decay of the compound nucleus makes a maximum contribution of 50% to the reaction yield. Energies of some excited states of the Ni⁵⁹ nucleus were also determined.

An attempt at a phenomenological interpretation of the influence of a polarizing field on piezoelectric resonators

The change in frequency of quartz piezoelectric resonators in a d-c electric polarizing field cannot be explained merely by a change in the dimensions of the resonator due to the polarizing field caused by the inverse piezoelectric effect and electrostriction. We are forced to admit that the elastic constants also change in a polarizing field. A phenomenological interpretation of the influence of a d-c electric polarizing field on the frequency of quartz resonators is proposed here, based on newly introduced quantities characterizing such a change. In conclusion it is shown in what way the quantities, on which the phenomenological theory is based, can be determined experimentally.

The thickness dependence of the permittivity of barium titanate single crystals

A thickness dependence of the permittivity ofc-domain barium titanate single crystals was found. The experimental results were explained by means of a model of a dielectric with surface layers. The thickness of the layer and the permittivity of the surface layer and bulk of the crystal were determined.

The basic equations of the dynamics of the continuous distribution of dislocations I. General theory

The basic equations of the dynamics of the continuous distribution of dislocations analogical to Maxwell's equations are derived in a series of papers I, II, III. The analogy of the elastic and electromagnetic fields is analyzed. In part I the basic equations of the continuous distribution of dislocations are derived for the dynamic case (especially for small deformations and for the Poisson ratio equal to zero in a continuum, infinite with respect to space and time, from the variational problem by means of the formal apparatus of the special theory of relativity.

Domain structure of cobalt whiskers

An experimental investigation is made into the domain structure of cobalt whiskers by the colloid technique. A new type of domain structure was found; the width of the domains is studied as a function of the thickness of the whisker. This dependence follows a two-thirds power law and does not agree with existing theories which predict a half power law.

The paper gives the experimental results of the team-work study of coloured pure and Ca doped NaCl and KC1 crystals. The mechanism of the formation ofR centres by coagulation ofF centres and of the formation ofZ centres fromF centres, cation vacancies and Ca ions is discussed. An alternative model forZ ₃ centres is proposed. The possible connections between physical and chemical behaviour are indicated.

The quantum efficiency of the internal photo-electric effect in indium antimonide

A method is described for measuring the relative quantum efficiency of the internal photo-electric effect in semi-conductors by simultaneously measuring the photo-magnetoelectric and photo-conductive effect. The results of measurements on indium antimonide are given. The quantum efficiency begins to increase if the energy of the photon exceeds 0·47 eVat room temperature. The quantum efficiency as a function of the energy of the photon is analysed on the basis of the conception of impact ionization and it is shown that a study of the structure of this curve can supply information on the, band structure of a semi-conductor in the region of high energies of electrons and holes.

The periodic domain structures on unfavourably oriented surface layers of ferromagnetic materials were studied both experimentally and theoretically. The connection between the surface structure and the crystallographic orientation of the crystals was confirmed. All the terms contributing to the total energy of the surface layer were calculated. A general solution of the potential problem is given for arbitrary periodic distribution of the charges.
