Cosmological models

An LRS Bianchi type II cosmological model is built with a state equation that is a function of the cosmic timet. The ratiop/ is 1/3 whent 0 and is insignificant whent. Thus, the matter content behaves like radiation for smallt and like dust for larget.     

More inequalities for critical exponents

A variety of rigorous inequalities for critical exponents is proved. Most notable is the low-temperature Josephson inequalitydv +2 2–. Others are 1 1 +v, 1 1 , 1,d 1 + 1/ (for d),dv, ₃ + (for d), ₄ , and _{2m 2m+2} (form 2). The hypotheses vary; all inequalities are true for the spin-1/2 Ising model with nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic pair interactions.NSF Predoctoral Fellow (1976–1979).

A possible test of quantum electrodynamics by means of polarization effects in electron-nucleon scattering

The differential cross-section is given for the electromagnetic scattering of polarized relativistic electrons on polarized nucleons. The finite size of each particle is taken into account by means of two form-factors. The effect of the possible non-punctiform structure of the electron on the polarization effects in scattering is discussed. It is shown that the internal structure of the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron would show itself in the cross-section by terms depending on the transversal polarization of the incident electrons.

МОДЕЛИРОВАНИЕ ЭЛЕКТ РОННО-ОПТИЧЕСКИХ СИС ТЕМ С ОСЕВОЙ СИММЕТРИЕЙ П РИ ПОМОЩИ СЕТИ СОПРОТИВЛЕНИЙ

The paper explains the theory of modelling electrostatic fields by a resistance network. The conditions, which the resistance network must satisfy, are derived and the question of modelling electrodes of different shapes is solved. The finished network and the results obtained on it when modelling a jet for a linear h-f accelerator of electrons are described. Particular attention is paid to the influence of a space charge, the modelling of which is an advantage of this method.

Hermiticity of Quantum Observables Versus Commutation Relations

In order to obtain sum rules and spectral representations the Hermiticity property , A = A, of observables is used. It is shown that for certain and the property turns out to be inconsistent with the commutation relations that contain A. The known Schwinger paradox is explained by this inconsistency.     

Amplitude and energy coefficients of reflected and refracted light

The tensor of reflected and refracted light was first introduced into the principal axes and then the latter were transformed into thep ands direction of the electric field strength. The amplitude coefficient of thep-components of refracted light has different forms depending on which complex unit vector is unit with respect to the square or the absolute value. The energy coefficient has the same value in both cases.

Monochromatization of synchrotron radiation for nuclear resonant scattering experiments

An introduction to monochromatization of synchrotron radiation in the energy range of 5–30 keV is presented for applications involving nuclear resonant scattering. The relevant relationships of the dynamical theory of Xray diffraction are used to explain basic concepts of monochromatization. These relations are combined with raytracing techniques to design highenergyresolution monochromators. Transmissionoptimized and energyresolutionoptimized designs that achieve high energy resolutions (10⁶)< E/E < 10⁸) are discussed separately. Practical silicon monochromators of both types are presented for a variety of nuclear resonances in this energy range.     

Double quantum transitions in paramagnetic resonance

The theory of double quantum transitions of the M=±2 type, with regard to inhomogeneously broadened spin systems is studied in this paper with the approximation ²T₂T₃ 1. We suppose that the inhomogeneous broadening is formed by an inhomogeneous crystal field. The obtained results describe the magnitude of absorption as a function of the h.f. power and also describe the shape of the absorption curve. It is demonstrated that in inhomogeneously broadened spin systems the absorption curve of double quantum transitions has the form of the difference of two different Lorentz's curves and that at the saturation ( ²T₂T₁ 1) the absorption increases with the cube of the h.f. field intensity. The shape of the curves is expressed by means of phenomenological relaxation constants of the system.

The damping of particle oscillations in a general field with periodic structure I

A liner theory is derived, discussing the dynamics of particles in the region of an equilibrium orbit in a general electromagnetic field, which forms a periodic system. The total particle damping is determined from the Hamiltonian found and from dissipative forces brought out by a classical reaction radiation. Relations for the damping of the synchrotron oscillations are derived from the study of the appropriate phase space.

     

Contribution of quantum corrections and superconducting fluctuations to the magnetic field and temperature dependence of the conductivity in amorphous CuTi and CuZr alloys

We report conductivity measurements on Cu _x Ti_100–x and Cu _x Zr_100–x glasses as a function of magnetic field (0B6T) and temperature (1.5–5. At low temperatures the measured conductivity(T,B)= ₀+(T)+(B,T) is compared quantitatively with the predictions of diagrammatic perturbation theories including quantum interference effects, spin-orbit scattering and electron-electron interaction. We obtain a set of characteristic fields for inelastic and spin orbit scattering from both the magnetic field and the temperature dependence of the measured (T, B). Below about 4K the Coulomb interaction determines (T) in consistence with the Hall effect, whereas quantum interference processes and spin-orbit scattering dominate the magnetic field dependence. In case of Cu _x Zr_100–x , (B, T) can be explained by taking into account superconducting fluctuations (Maki-Thompson and Aslamasov-Larkin parts) in addition. Superconducting fluctuations dominate the temperature dependence as well. For high magnetic fields and lower temperatures (B/T>1T/K) we find discrepancies between experiment and calculations from perturbation theory.     

State automorphisms in axiomatic quantum mechanics

A new metric which we call the intrinsic metric is introduced on the states of the generalized logic of quantum mechanics. It is shown that every automorphism on is an isometry. A norm can be defined on the linear spanE of which reduces to the intrinsic metric on. IfX is the completion ofE then every automorphism, on has a unique extension to a linear isometry onX. A comparison is made between these results and those of Kroniff.     

The connection between low-gradient form of the positive column in oxygen and moving striations

The method of sliding photomultipliers was used to study the connection between two forms of the positive column in oxygen — the so-called low-gradientT-form and the highgradientH-form — and the presence of moving striations in the positive column. It was shown that in theT-form of a positive column striations are always present which move from the cathode to anode with a velocity of several thousand metres/sec. The highgradient form of theH-positive column, on the other hand, is not striated. The non-single-valuedness of the value of the longitudinal electric field in a discharge in oxygen is thus explained by the presence or absence of phenomena of a time variable character.

Asymptotic behaviour of spin-momentum distribution observables for fermion fields with cut-off self-coupling

In a previous paper asymptotic creation and annhilation operatorsa _± ^# have been constructed by the Kato-Mugibayashi method from the creation and annihilation operatorsa ^# for spin 1/2 fields with an interaction Hamiltonian density which is an evendegree polynomial in the field with ultra-violet cut-off and its derivatives. For any eigenvector of the total HamiltonianH=H ₀+H _I partial isometries _± have been defined so thata _± ^# equal _± a ^# *_± on the ranges _± of _±. Since the existence of a groundstate ofH has been proved, the existence of at least one pair _± follows. The purpose of this paper is to show that for any _± orthogonal to the distribution of spins and momenta of the interacting Schrödinger states exp[–itH]_± approaches fort the distributions of spins and momenta of the free state exp[–itH ₀] if a wave-amplitude renormalization is carried out in _±. This is achieved by studying the expectation values of the operators in themaximally abelian W*-algebra generated by operators of the form a*a, in terms of whichany information about spins and momenta can be expressed.Supported in part by the National Research Council of Canada.     

Dynamic structure factor in a random diffusion model

Let {X _t:0} denote random walk in the random waiting time model, i.e., simple random walk with jump ratew ^–1(X _t), where {w(x):x^d} is an i.i.d. random field. We show that (under some mild conditions) theintermediate scattering function F(q,t)=E ₀ (q^d) is completely monotonic int (E ₀ denotes double expectation w.r.t. walk and field). We also show that thedynamic structure factor S(q, w)=2 ₀ cos(t)F(q, t) exists for 0 and is strictly positive. Ind=1, 2 it diverges as 1/||^1/2, resp. –ln(||), in the limit 0; ind3 its limit value is strictly larger than expected from hydrodynamics. This and further results support the conclusion that the hydrodynamic region is limited to smallq and small such that ||D |q|², whereD is the diffusion constant.

Global flows with invariant (Gibbs) measures for Euler and Navier-Stokes two dimensional fluids

We construct a family of probability spaces,P ), <0 associated with the Euler equation for a two dimensional inviscid incompressible fluid which carries a pointwise flow _t (time evolution) leavingP globally invariant. _t is obtained as the limit of Galerkin approximations associated with Euler equations.P is also in invariant measure for a stochastic process associated with a Navier-Stokes equation with viscosity, , stochastically perturbed by a white noise force.

The present work has its roots in previous inspiring work by him and we dedicate it to him as a small sign of our gratitude.     

Determination of random variations in ionosphere height from phase fluctuations of VLF signals

Conclusions A feature of our problem of restoration of fluctuations in ionosphere height is that the experimental data(t, _k) obtained at a fixed reception point are functions of time, whereas the function ₁(u, y₂) to be restored is a function of the coordinates. If we use the assumption that the irregularities migrate transversely, coordinate y₂ can be exchanged for time t. Restoration with respect to the second coordinate u=x_i–x₀/2 is in effect obtained by using data(t, _k) on some set of carrier frequencies.The resultant solution of the restoration problem is in the form of an expansion of ₁(u, y₂) in known functions determined from the observed data(t, _k). We have evaluated the solution accuracy, which depends on the overall power signal-to-noise ratio at all frequencies used. We have demonstrated that the restoration algorithm contains an optimum number (with respect to accuracy) of coefficients to be evaluated.Khar'kov Aviation Institute.

Inertial effects on the escape rate of a particle driven by colored noise: An instanton approach

A recent calculation, in the weak-noise limit, of the rate of escape of a particle over a one-dimensional potential barrier is extended by including an inertial term in the Langevin equation. Specifically, we consider a system described by the Langevin equation , where is a Gaussian colored noise with mean zero and correlator (t)(t')=(D/)exp(–|t–t'|/). A pathintegral formulation is augmented by a steepest descent calculation valid in the weak-noise (D0) limit. This yields an escape rateexp(–S/D), where the actionS is the minimum, over paths characterizing escape over the barrier, of a generalized Onsager-Machlup functional, the extremal path being an instanton of the theory. The extremal actionS is calculated analytically for smallm and for general potentials, and numerical results forS are displayed for various ranges ofm and for the typical case of the quartic potentialV(x)=–x ₂/2+x ₄/4.
