Effects of (g 9/2)2 admixtures in Cu isotopes and68Ni

In TQM a Δn=2 term is introduced in the two-particle transfer operator, which gives a sizeable shift of the L=0 transfer strength to the excited 0⁺ state in SU(3) and SU(5) limits of IBM/TQM.     

Josephson junction with a magnetic-field tunable ground state

We consider an asymmetric 0-π Josephson junction consisting of 0 and π regions of different lengths L(0) and L(π). As predicted earlier this system can be described by an effective sine-Gordon equation for the spatially averaged phase ψ so that the effective current-phase relation of this system includes a negative second harmonic ∝sin(2ψ). If its amplitude is large enough, the ground state of the junction is doubly degenerate ψ=±φ, where φ depends on the amplitudes of the first and second harmonics. We study the behavior of such a junction in an applied magnetic field H and demonstrate that H induces an additional term ∝Hcosψ in the effective current-phase relation. This results in a nontrivial ground state tunable by magnetic field. The dependence of the critical current on H allows for revealing the ground state experimentally.     

Backlund Transformation and Exact Solutions for a New Generalized Zakharov-Kuzentsov Equation with Nonlinear Terms of Any Order

In this paper, with the help of symbolic computation, a new Backlund transformation (BT) for a newgeneralized Zakharov-Kuznetsov equation with nonlinear term of any order, ut+aupux +bu2pux +γuxy +δuxxx +ρuxyy=0, is obtained by using the homogeneous balance method. Based on the BT, some exact solutions are presented.     

Discovery of the shape coexisting 0+ state in 32 Mg by a two neutron transfer reaction

The "island of inversion" nucleus 32 Mg has been studied by a (t, p) two neutron transfer reaction in inverse kinematics at REX-ISOLDE. The shape coexistent excited 0+ state in 32 Mg has been identified by the characteristic angular distribution of the protons of the Δ L=0 transfer. The excitation energy of 1058 keV is much lower than predicted by any theoretical model. The low γ-ray intensity observed for the decay of this 0+ state indicates a lifetime of more than 10 ns. Deduced spectroscopic amplitudes are compared with occupation numbers from shell-model calculations.     

Magnetism of mixed valence (LaSr) hexaferrites

We propose a theoretical model to account for the recently observed magnetic moment reduction of gadolinium in fullerenes. While this reduction has been observed also for other trivalent rare-earth atoms (Dy³⁺, Er³⁺, Ho³⁺) in fullerenes, and can be ascribed to crystal field effects, the explanation of this phenomena for Gd³⁺ is not straightforward due to the spherical nature of its ground state (S=7/2, L=0). In our model the momentum reduction is the result of a subtle interplay between hybridisation and the spin-orbit interaction.     

Gluon exchange in meson spectroscopy

We discuss the spin structure ofN=L=0 andN=L=1 mesons in terms of the one-gluon exchange model with scalar confinement of quarks. SU(3)_flavour is broken by taking different masses for the quarks and the SU (3) breaking of the nonperturbed hamiltonian is shown to be very important in understanding the hyperfine splittings in the ground state mesons, including the charmed states. A fit to the experimental mass spectrum is performed for theN=L=0 andN=L=1 levels simultaneously. The spin-orbit splittings of the spectrum cannot be explained by the convential terms from gluon exchange and scalar confinement. We argue that additional terms, which break the ideal mixing pattern, have to be present. The inclusion of such a term gives a dramatic improvement in χ² and leads to an almost perfect fit to the data for masses and mixing angles.

High resolution photoassociation spectra of an ultracold Cs2 long-range 0u＋ （6S1/2 ＋ 6P1/2） state＊

In this paper, ultracold cesium molecules are formed through photoassociation technology, which is carried out in a magneto-optical trap. High resolution photoassociaion spectra with the rotational progressions up to J = 7 are obtained. Three rovibrational levels of the long-range 0＋ state of Cs2 below the （6S1/2 ＋ 6P1/2） dissociation limit are specifically investigated. By fitting their binding energy intervals to the non-rigid rotational model, the rotational constant of the long- range 0u＋ state is determined. A proportional dependence of the value of the rotational constant on the vibrational quantum number is demonstrated.     

The isospin-dependent quadrupole-quadrupole interaction used in shell model calculations – the effects of including ΔN = 2 excitations and a two-body spin-orbit interaction term

The effect of the “B” term in the interaction −χQ(1) · Q(2)[1+Bτ(1) ·τ(2)] was previously considered in the 0p shell (small space). It is now studied in a larger space which additionally includes ΔN = 2 excitations. When B is made sufficiently negative we still obtain for ¹⁰Be, even in the larger space, an unphysical collapse of some of the low-lying states so that their energies are less than the energy of the conventional J = 0⁺ ground state. This effect, however, occurs for values of B considerably more negative than was the case in the smaller space. It is shown that the inclusion of an additional two-body spin-orbit interaction term prevents this unrealistic collapse in both the large and small spaces.

Fourier Transform Spectrum and Term Values for the CO-Stretching Mode of CD3OH Methanol

The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrum of the CO-stretching fundamental band of CD₃OH has been recorded at a resolution of 0.002 cm^-1. Assignments are reported for 35 subbands in the n = 0 ground torsional state, covering K = 0 to 9 for all torsional symmetries plus K = 10 A, and 12 assorted A and E subbands in the n = 1 first excited torsional state ranging from K = 0 up to K = 5. The subband wavenumbers have been fitted to J(J + 1) power-series energy expansions to obtain subband origins and a compact representation of the spectral observations. With the use of known ground-state energies, CO-stretch energy term values have been determined and tabulated. Least-squares fitting of the subband origins to a fourth-order Hamiltonian model for the CO-stretch mode is discussed.     

Sensitized luminescence properties of dinuclear lanthanide macrocyclic complexes bearing a benzophenone antenna

Dinuclear lanthanide (Ln=Tb³⁺ or Eu³⁺) complexes (Ln₂L2) of two octadentate macrocyclic polyaminopolycarboxylic ligands connected through a benzophenone (BP) moiety (L2) have been synthesized. Sensitized luminescence properties of Ln₂L2 in water have been studied in comparison to those of BP-conjugated mononuclear Ln complexes (LnL1). The luminescence intensity of Tb₂L2 is lower than that of TbL1 because of lower triplet quantum yield of the BP moiety. In contrast, Eu₂L2 shows higher intensity than EuL1. For both Eu complexes, energy level of triplet excited-state BP (³BP*) is only 3 kJ mol⁻¹ higher than that of ⁵D₂ excited-state of Eu³⁺. The ⁵D₂ state formed by a triplet-energy transfer (TET) from ³BP* is therefore deactivated by a back energy transfer (BET) to the ground-state BP, resulting in low luminescence intensity of EuL1. In contrast, within Eu₂L2, TET from ³BP* to ⁵D₀ state of two Eu³⁺ ions is accelerated, thus leading to higher luminescence intensity. Another notable feature of Eu₂L2 is the luminescence quantum yield independent of its concentration. In contrast, for EuL1 system, an intermolecular BET occurs from ⁵D₂ state of Eu³⁺ to the ground-state BP conjugated to another EuL1 complex, resulting in a yield decrease with the concentration increase.     

由实验数据计算氢气的维里系数问题

我们对计算气体物态方程中维里系数的方法作了全面的探讨,提出了如何判定物态方程中项数的四个原则。这四个原则是:(1)用∑v²的大小的变化来判断项的数目应如何选取,其中v为pV的计算值减去其实验值。(2)多项式要满足逐项在数值上减少的级数性质。(3)多项式的末一项大小要与实验误差大小相同。(4)误差v的正负号数目要大致相等。我们建议在计算中要用A₀+B₀+C₀+…=1条件,但不要用A=RT条件。此外还讨论了用压强展开和用密度展开的问题,级数展开式中省去奇数幂次项问题,维里系数的有效位数问题,若干实验数据的修正问题等。我们根据上述原则和建议,重新计算了氢气的维里系数,结果与各原作者所得的有相当的不同。在同一温度用不同实验窒的数据所得的维里系数比各原作者所得的要互相接近些,一般在两倍标准误差内一致。     

Resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization of NO via X2П→A2∑ transition

The resonance-enhanced multiphoton ionization (REMPI) spectrum of NO has been obtained in the range of 420-480 nm with a Nd:YAG pumped optical parametric generator and amplifier. The spectral linescan be attributed to NO X2П(v" = 0, 1) → A2∑(v' = 0, 1) transitions. In this wavelength range, NO molecules are ionized via the resonant intermediate state A2∑+ and by a (2 + 2) REMPI process. The dependence of ion signals on laser intensity and gas pressure is discussed. The variation of the ionization signal versus laser intensity is near quartic. This is in good agreement with theory.     

TWO PHOTONS EXCITED 4d RYDBERG STATE OF AsH3

In this paper, by using resonance enhanced (2+1) multiphoton ionization (REMPI) of AsH₃ and detecting the daughter molecular ions AsH⁺ and As⁺, a long progression discrete structure was obtained from 267 to 291 nm, which obeys the formula ν₀(cm^-1)=68875.3+504.1v′₂+5.26v′²₂. Analysis of the spectrum has revealed that it belongs to 4d Rydberg state transition. Our assignment yields the 4d Rydberg state parameters T_e′=67881.1 cm^-1, ω_e′=495.1 cm^-1 and δ=0.962. Finally the 4d Rydberg state structure of AsH₃ was discussed.     

Thermoelectric power of HoBaCo2O5.5: possible evidence of the spin blockade in cobaltites

Thermoelectric power measurements have been performed for an ordered oxygen-deficient perovskite, HoBaCo2O5.5, in which the alternative layers of CoO6 octahedra and of [CoO(5)](2) bipyramids are occupied by Co3+ species. The T-dependent Seebeck coefficient S shows a clear change of the conduction regime at the metal-insulator (MI) transition (T(MI) approximately 285 K). The sign change of S from S<0 to S>0 can be explained assuming that a spin state transition occurs at T(MI). In the metallic state, Co2+ e(g) electrons are moving in a broad band on the background of high or intermediate spin Co3+ species. In contrast, the insulating behavior may result from the Co3+ spin state transition to a low-spin Co3+ occurring in the octahedra. In this phase the transport would occur by hopping of the low-spin Co(4+)t(2g) holes, whereas the high-spin Co2+ electrons become immobilized due to a spin blockade.     

Collective mode in a superconductor with mixed-symmetry order parameter components

We consider a superconducting state with mixed-symmetry order parameter components, e.g., d+is or d+id(') with d(') = d(xy). We argue for the existence of a new orbital magnetization mode which corresponds to oscillations of relative phase straight phi between two components around an equilibrium value of straight phi = pi / 2. It is similar to the "clapping" mode in superfluid 3He-A. We estimate the frequency of this mode omega(0)(B,T) depending on the field and temperature for the specific case of magnetic field induced d(') = d(xy) state. This mode is tunable with a magnetic field with omega(0)(B,T) approximately BDelta(0), where Delta(0) is the magnitude of the d-wave order parameter. We also estimate the velocity s(B,T) of this mode.     

Inelastic electron scattering from He

The spectra of electrons scattered inelastically from ⁴He have been measured at incident energies from 150 MeV to 400 MeV for scattering angles from 38° to 90°. Through the use of a liquid ⁴He target, a high momentum resolution (≈0.25%) was obtained, and the 20 MeV 0⁺ state of the -particle was observed for the first time in electron scattering. The excitation energy and the total width of this state were determined and are in good agreement with the results from other experimental methods. It was found that the total disintegration cross section appears be smaller than 2(σ_p+σ_n) by more than an order of magnitude at the lowest q²(≈ 0.33 fm⁻²). In earlier work the assumption of a total cross section of 2(σ_p+σ_n) was found to be quite accurate for higher q². As a new result, the partial radiative width for the 0⁺ state is determined to be Γ_rad = 1.1±0.3 meV.

New Vibrational Numbering and Potential Energy Curve for the 3(3)Pig Electronic State of the Li2 Molecule

An experimental study of the 3(3)Pig electronic state of 7Li2, using the Perturbation-Facilitated Optical-Optical Double Resonance (PFOODR) technique, was recently reported [A. Yiannopoulou et al., J. Chem. Phys. 103, 5898, (1995)]. However, due to the very small number of known 7Li2 A1Sigma+u approximately b3Piu window levels, only 13 ro-vibrational levels (spanning a range of vibrational levels designated upsilonx - 1 to upsilonx + 3 in that reference) could be observed. Dunham coefficients, based on the assignment upsilonx = 7, were found to fit the observed term values and give a qualitative fit to the intensities of the first six lines of the 3(3)Pig (upsilon = upsilonx, N = 11) --> b3Piu emission spectrum. However, due to the limited number of levels used in the fit, both the absolute vibrational numbering and the 3(3)Pig RKR potential curve obtained from the Dunham coefficients, must be considered to be uncertain. In the present work, we show that the previously reported 3(3)Pig RKR curve is unable to reproduce the experimental intensity distribution in the 7Li2 3(3)Pig (upsilonx = 7, N = 11) --> a3Sigma+u emission continuum. We report new experimental data for the 7Li2 3(3)Pig (upsilonx + 1, N = 11) --> a3Sigma+u bound-free continuum and discrete 3(3)Pig (upsilonx +/- 1, N = 11) --> b3Piu spectra obtained using the PFOODR experimental technique. We demonstrate that the correct vibrational numbering and an improved RKR potential curve can be obtained by analyzing the experimental term values in combination with all observed bound-free and discrete spectra. Finally, term values for four 6Li2 3(3)Pig ro-vibrational levels were obtained using PFOODR spectroscopy. The measured isotope shifts confirm the absolute vibrational numbering obtained from the present analysis. Copyright 1999 Academic Press.     

Probing configuration mixing in 12Be with Gamow-Teller transition strengths

We present a novel technique for studying the quenching of shell gaps in exotic isotopes. The method is based on extracting Gamow-Teller (ΔL=0, ΔS=1) transition strengths [B(GT)] to low-lying states from charge-exchange reactions at intermediate beam energies. These Gamow-Teller strengths are very sensitive to configuration mixing between cross-shell orbitals, and this technique thus provides an important complement to other tools currently used to study cross-shell mixing. This work focuses on the N=8 shell gap. We populated the ground and 2.24 MeV 0+ states in 12Be using the 12B(1+) (7Li, 7Be) reaction at 80 MeV/u in inverse kinematics. Using the ground-state B(GT) value from β-decay measurements (0.184±0.007) as a calibration, the B(GT) for the transition to the second 0+ state was determined to be 0.214±0.051. Comparing the extracted Gamow-Teller strengths with shell-model calculations, it was determined that the wave functions of the first and second 0+ states in 12Be are composed of 25±5% and 60±5% (0s)4(0p)8 configurations, respectively.
