Observables and Statistical Maps

This article begins with a review of the framework of fuzzy probability theory. The basic structure is given by the -effect algebra of effects (fuzzy events) and the set of probability measures on a measurable space . An observable is defined, where is the value space of X. It is noted that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between states on and elements of and between observables and -morphisms from to . Various combinations of observables are discussed. These include compositions, products, direct products, and mixtures. Fuzzy stochastic processes are introduced and an application to quantum dynamics is considered. Quantum effects are characterized from among a more general class of effects. An alternative definition of a statistical map is given and it is shown that any statistical map has a unique extension to a statistical operator. Finally, various combinations of statistical maps are discussed and their relationships to the corresponding combinations of observables are derived.     

“Principle of Indistinguishability” and Equations of Motion for Particles with Spin

In this work we review the derivation of Dirac and Weinberg equations based on a principle of indistinguishability for the (j,0) and (0,j) irreducible representations (irreps) of the homogeneous Lorentz group (HLG). We generalize this principle and explore its consequences for other irreps containing j1. We rederive Ahluwalia–Kirchbach equation using this principle and conclude that it yields equations of motion for any representation containing spin j and lower spins. We also use the obtained generators of the HLG for a given representation to explore the possibility of the existence of first order equations for that representation. We show that, except for j= , there exists no Dirac-like equation for the (j,0)(0,j) representation nor for the ( , ) representation. We rederive Kemmer–Duffin–Petieau (KDP) equation for the (1,0)( , )(0,1) representation by this method and show that the (1, )( ,1) representation satisfies a Dirac-like equation which describes a multiplet of with masses m and m/2, respectively.

Power law growth for the resistance in the Fibonacci model

Many one-dimensional quasiperiodic systems based on the Fibonacci rule, such as the tight-binding HamiltonianH(n)=(n+1)+(n–1)+v(n) (n),n,l ²(),, wherev(n)=[(n+1)]–[n],[x] denoting the integer part ofx and the golden mean , give rise to the same recursion relation for the transfer matrices. It is proved that the wave functions and the norm of transfer matrices are polynomially bounded (critical regime) if and only if the energy is in the spectrum of the Hamiltonian. This solves a conjecture of Kohmoto and Sutherland on the power-law growth of the resistance in a one-dimensional quasicrystal.     

Continuity of type-I intermittency from a measure-theoretical point of view

We study a simple dynamical system which displays a so-called type-I intermittency bifurcation. We determine the Bowen-Ruelle measure and prove that the expectation (g) of any continuous functiong and the Kolmogoroff-Sinai entropyh() are continuous functions of the bifurcation parameter. Therefore the transition is continuous from a measure-theoretical point of view. Those results could be generalized to any similar dynamical system.     

Magnetic anisotropy in thin ferromagnetic films

The magnetic properties of thin ferromagnetic films are studied taking into account the magnetic anisotropy term in the Hamiltonian. In the second approximation equations are obtained for the magnetization of the monatomic layers parallel to the surface of the thin film. From these equations one obtains the Curie temperature, which depends on the thickness of the thin film and the ratio a between the anisotropy constant and the exchange energy between two neighbours. A value can be chosen for such that the thin film becomes ferromagnetic only for a thickness greater than a definite value and in this manner the theoretical results can be fitted to the experimental data. The situation in cobalt thin films is dealt with in particular.

On general relativistic vortex-dynamics

The general theory of relativity gives an absolutely covariant formulation of Helmholtz's laws of vorticity which is valid in arbitrary reference systems. For small relative velocities u_i, (with u_i,u²) these generally covariant laws deliver Helmholtz's first law for a vorticity _i in a rigidly rotating references system with the angular velocity of the rotation.     

Hyperbolic initial-boundary-value problem for magnetic flux compression by plane liners

Based on the (relativistic) Maxwell equations with displacement current E/t, the initial-boundary-value problem for the compression of an initially homogeneous magnetic fieldB={0,B(x,t),0} between a fixed liner atx=0 and a detonation-driven liner atx=s(t) is solved analytically. By homogenizing the boundary conditions at the moving boundary, the transient electromagnetic fields are shown to be a superposition of quasistatic elliptic (E/t=0) and hyperbolic (E/t0) wave solutions. The wave equation is solved by a Fourier expansion in time-dependent eigenfunctionsf _n =f _n [nx/s(t)] for the variable region 0xs(t), where the Fourier amplitudes _n (t) are determined by coupled differential equations of second order. It is concluded that the conventional elliptic flux compression theories (E/t=0) hold approximately for nonrelativistic liner speeds , whereas the hyperbolic theory (E/t0) is valid for arbitrary liner speeds .     

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.

Power law scaling of the top Lyapunov exponent of a Product of Random Matrices

A sequence of i.i.d. matrix-valued random variables with probabilityp and with probability 1–p is considered. Leta() = a ₀ + O(), c() = c ₀ + O() lim ₀ b() = Oa ₀,c ₀, >0, andb()>0 for all >0. It is shown show that the top Lyapunov exponent of the matrix productX _n X _n-1...X ₁, = lim_n (1/n) n X _n X _n-1...X ₁ satisfies a power law with an exponent 1/2. That is, lim ₀(ln /ln ) = 1/2.     

On the Hamiltonian interpolation of near-to-the identity symplectic mappings with application to symplectic integration algorithms

We reconsider the problem of the Hamiltonian interpolation of symplectic mappings. Following Moser's scheme, we prove that for any mapping , analytic and -close to the identity, there exists an analytic autonomous Hamiltonian system, H such that its time-one mapping _H differs from by a quantity exponentially small in 1/. This result is applied, in particular, to the problem of numerical integration of Hamiltonian systems by symplectic algorithms; it turns out that, when using an analytic symplectic algorithm of orders to integrate a Hamiltonian systemK, one actually follows exactly, namely within the computer roundoff error, the trajectories of the interpolating Hamiltonian H, or equivalently of the rescaled Hamiltonian K=^-1H, which differs fromK, but turns out to be ⁵ close to it. Special attention is devoted to numerical integration for scattering problems.

Colored noise in activated rate processes

We consider bistable systems driven by stationary wideband Gaussian colored noise. We construct uniform asymptotic expansions of the stationary probability density function and of the activation rate, for small intensity and short correlation time of the noise. We find that for different values of the total power output / of the noise, different terms in the asymptotic expansions become dominant. For we recover previously derived results, while for =O() and new results are obtained.     

Uniaxial stress induced frequency shifts for muons in single crystal Fe

We report the first results on uniaxial stress-induced frequency shifts in an Fe single crystal. Stress was applied along the 100 axis, which was also the axis of magnetization induced by an external field. The observed frequency shift was –0.34±0.023 MHz per 100 microstrain, which corresponds to B/=+25.1±1.6 G/100. The positive sign arises from the negative sign of B itself. This result is interpreted as follows: The stress induces a statistical population shift between magnetically inequivalent sites. Extrapolations from the calculations of Sugimoto and Fukai from Nb and V to Fe yield order of magnitude agreement. The 4T(0) site system seems more likely.

A Quantization on Riemann Surfaces with Projective Structure

Let X be a Riemann surface equipped with a projective structure. Let be a square-root of the holomorphic cotangent bundle K _X . Consider the symplectic form on the complement of the zero section of obtained by pulling back the symplectic form on K _X using the map ². We show that this symplectic form admits a natural quantization. This quantization also gives a quantization of the complement of the zero section in K _X equipped with the natural symplectic form.     

Ferromagnetic resonance in thin cobalt films

The paper gives the results of measuring ferromagnetic resonance on thin cobalt films, vacuum deposited on unheated glass slides. The values of the (g-factor, the width of the curve, the effective stress and uniaxial induced anisotropy were determined as a function of the thickness of the film from measurements of the ferromagnetic absorption in a magnetic field normal and parallel to the surface of the film. Measurements were carried out on a frequency of 9200 MHz and on film thicknesses of 180 to 1800 Å. A qualitative explanation of the observed dependences is given.

Fine Structures of the Permittivity and Characteristic Losses of Electrons in Fluorite

Experimental-computational spectra of the permittivity and characteristic losses –Im^–1 for energies in the range 5–21 eV at a temperature of 4.2 K and theoretical spectra of and –Im^–1 of a fluorite crystal are resolved into elementary transition bands. The parameters of transition bands (energies of their maxima E _i, band halfwidths H _i and areas S _i, and oscillator forces f _i) are determined. A correlation of the spectral bands of and –Im^–1is established, and their specific features are elucidated.     

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.     

Refining of CdSb and preparation of CdSb single crystals by zone melting

CdSb single crystals were prepared by zone melting in a boat both with and without a seed crystal in a stream of pure hydrogen or in a sealed and evacuated tube. The zone moved with a velocity of 1–20 cm/hour. Zone melting in an evacuated tube was used to prepare CdSb single crystals of high purity containing 10¹⁵ acceptors/cm³ at room temperature. During zone refining the stoichiometry is damaged; the front part of the ingot is enriched by cadmium and the end of the ingot by antimony; the enrichment is of an order of several percent after 10 passages of the zone. In the middle part of the ingot the stoichiometric compound remains unchanged. CdSb single crystals grow even by directional cooling of the melt of the stoichiometric compound without a seed crystal.
