The paramagnetic state (⁺e^–) in Si and Te was observed in a longitudinal magnetic field. The mean lifetimes of these states were obtained: _Si = 1.45(3) s, _Te = 12.5(8) s at 290 K, _Te = 12(2) s at 250 K.     

The effects of inkomogeneous center structure on the shape of the ESR spectra of alkali-rich glasses

The paper considers the effect of nonuniform structure in the centers on the ESR spectrum for the case of axial anisotropy in the g factor; it is shown that if (² >² , _¦ >), the model enables one to describe fairly completely the spectrum of a glass containing 33% Na₂O and 67% SiO₂. Good agreement with all experimental evidence is not obtained for potassium silicate glasses.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii Fizika, No. 6, pp. 86–90, June, 1971.     

Surviving extrema for the action on the twisted SU(∞) one point lattice

We give a simplified construction of twist eating configurations, based on a theorem due to Frobenius. These configurations are defined through the equation:U U U ⁺ U ⁺ =exp(2in /N) withU SU(N), =1 tod andn an antisymmetric matrix with integer entries. In the (Twisted)-Eguchi-Kawai model they yield extrema some of which survive forN. Comparison is made with the Monte Carlo data of the internal energy in the small coupling region.     

Resonance interaction of antineutrinos with electrons

Expressions are given for the cross sections of the processes v_ee v and v_ee v _e ^' e' from the viewpoint of the hypothesis of weak interactions via intermediary vector mesons taking separate account of the polarizations of the electron target and the muon (electron) emission. An analysis is given of the cross sections of processes which are admissible according to both the two- and four-component theories of the neutrino. The degree of longitudinal polarization of meson emission is also determined for the interaction of incident antineutrinos (neutrinos) with a polarized target in the processes ve v, ve⁺ v⁺.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii Fizika, No. 6, pp. 48–53, June, 1971.The author is grateful to B.

On the asymptotics of occurrence times of rare events for stochastic spin systems

We consider translation-invariant attractive spin systems. LetT _,x ^v be the first time that the average spin inside the hypercube reaches the valuex when the process is started from an invariant measure with density smaller thanx. We obtain sufficient conditions for (1) ¦¦^–1 logT _,x ^v (x) in distribution as ¦¦ , and ¦¦^–1 logT _,x ^v (x) as ¦¦ , where (x):= –lim ¦¦^–1 log {(average spin inside ) x. And (2)T _,x ^v /ET _,x ^v converges to a unit mean exponential random variable as ¦¦ . Both (1) and (2) are proven under some type of rapid convergence to equilibrium. (1) is also proven without extra conditions for Ising models with ferromagnetic pair interactions evolving according to an attractive reversible dynamics; in this case is a thermodynamic function. We discuss also the case of finite systems with boundary conditions and what can be said about the state of the system at the timeT _,x ^v .On leave from São Paulo University.     

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.

On the basis of an arbitrary (V, A) structure of the neutral weak ¯ee and LL currents (L=^–, M⁰) a study is made of the processes of production in colliding electron-positron beams of pairs of heavy leptons with subsequent decays in accordance with the schemes e⁺e^––(µ^–v_µv) + ⁺( anything) and e⁺e^–M⁰(µ^–e⁺v_e) + M⁰( anything). The energy spectrum and asymmetry of the distribution of the produced muons are investigated.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 2, pp. 66–70, February, 1981.

On the theory of amplification of meso-ultrasound in anisotropic monopolar semiconductors

The electronic absorption coefficient (_e) of meso-ultrasound (_p ^–1 _en, _t, _ee; ql 1, where _p, _en, _t are the times of pulse relaxation, energy, and current carrier traps; _ee ^–1 is the frequency of intraelectron collisions; , q are the frequency and wave vector of sound; l is the carrier mean free path) in the presence of a permanent external field E₀ e ₀ ^–1 q₀T is calculated for anisotropic single-valley semiconductors with piezoelectrical and potential-deformation acoustoelectronic interaction. Considered arbitrary are: 1) the anisotropy of the tensors * and _p (and other crystal parameters); 2) the degree of Fermi degeneration of the carriers; 3) the dependence of _p on the carrier energy . The acoustoheat nonlinearity is neglected. The possibility of meso-ultrasound amplification by the transverse field (E₀ - q) is predicted. By changing the orientation of the vector q relative to the crystal axes, the transverse threshold field (E ^thr ) can be controlled smoothly and within broad limits, This permits the production of a mechanical sound-amplification regulator or a modulator of its intensity. The ratio between E ^thr and E ^thr yields a measure of the relative anisotropy of the mobility.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 2, pp. 87–92, February, 1977.

Feasibility of an experiment to determine the branching ratio for the emission of a heavy neutrino after muon capture in3He

The triton energy of the muon capture reaction ³He t+v, where ³ He is the ground state of muonic³He, has been measured in order to investigate a possible heavy v admixture into the flavour with high sensitivity. ³ He has been formed via the pd fusion reaction by stopping ^– in an ionization chamber (IC) filled with an H/D gas mixture of 3% D concentration at a pressure of 161 bar. In a first short experiment 650 triton events were observed yielding an upper limit for the -heavy v mixing strength of 2.3×10^–3 atE _0v=60 MeV.     

Computer simulation of driven diffusive systems with exchanges

The field-driven Kawasaki model with a fractionp admixture of Glauber dynamics is studied by computer simulation:p=0 corresponds to the order-parameter-onserving driven diffusive system, whilep=1 is the equilibrium Ising model. Forp=0.1 our best estimates of critical exponents based on a system of size 4096×128 are0.22, ^RS0.45, andv v 1. These exponents differ from both the values predicted by a field-theoretic method forp=0 and those of the equilibrium Ising model. Anisotropic finite-size scaling analyses are carried out, both for subsystems of the large system and for fully periodic systems. The results of the latter, however, are inconsistent, probably due to the complexity of the size effects. This leaves open the possibility that we are in a crossover regime fromp=0 top0 and that our critical exponents are effective ones. Forp=0 our results are consistent with the predictionsv >v .     

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.     

Microstructure of fiber-like SiC/Si3N4 composite particulate

The microstructure of fiber-like SiC/Si₃N₄ composite particulate was investigated using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy techniques. The SiC/Si₃N₄ composite particulate consisted of a-SiC core and a -Si₃N₄ outer shell. Two kinds of composite particulate were distinguished when the observed orientation of the SiC core was <110>. In one type of the SiC/Si₃N₄ composite particulate, a crystal relationship of (111)-SiC | (102) -Si₃N₄ and (111)-SiC (114) -Si₃N₄ was identified; in the other type of the SiC/Si₃N₄ composite particulate, a crystal relationship of (111)-SiC (001) -Si₃N₄, and (111)-SiC (101) -Si₃N₄ was observed.     

Correlation inequalities for the truncated two-point function of an Ising ferromagnet

We establish the following new correlation inequalities for the truncated twopoint function of an Ising ferromagnet in a positive external field: _j ; _l ^T _j ; _k ^T _k ; _l ^T , and _j ; _l ^T _{k K j} ; _k ^T _{k l} , whereK is any set of sites which separatesj froml. The inequalities are also valid for the pure phases with zero magnetic field at all temperatures. Above the critical temperature they reduce to known inequalities of Griffiths and Simon, respectively.NSERC Postgraduate Fellow, 1978–1981.

Stimulated IR- and vacuum-UV emission following two-photon-excitation of molecular hydrogen using an ArF laser

Hydrogen molecules are excited by two 193 nm-photons [X¹ _g ⁺ E,F¹ _g ⁺ ;Q₀₂(1)] generated with a commerical oscillator-amplifier ArF laser. Stimulated emission is subsequently observed in the IR (=752.4 nm to 836.6 nm;E, FB) and in the VUV (=134.0 nm to 160.9 nm;BX) with a VUV conversion efficiency of 0.2%. The rotational fine-structure, the saturation behaviour, pump depletion as well as SRS-onset on and off two-photon resonance are investigated.     

Modelling of electron stream discharge

Particle-in-cell Monte Carlo code is used to simulate gas discharge initiated by a high current (I _e10kA) middle energy ( _e10keV) hot ( _e1 keV) electron stream. The generation of such an overthermal electron stream has been clearly demonstrated at the experimental REBEX facility during the relativistic electron beam-plasma interaction. When the electron beam (represented by1000 macroparticles) is injected into the drift tube filled by neutral gas (hydrogen,p=13.3–133 Pa) two different stages are observed. During the initial stage the arising Virtual Cathode (VC) is filled by hydrogen ions. The VC disappears when the quasineutrality of ionized gas is achieved. Then the severe exponential growth of electron and ion component of ionized gas is observed.List of symbols x distance from the left electrode [m] - t time [s] - v _x ,v _y velocity components [m/s] - g4(x) potential [Volt] - g4 _1/2(t) middle potential [Volt] - E(x) electric field [Volt/m] - Q _wall wall charge [C/m.m] - I current [C/s] - _tot total energy [J] - N number of macroparticles - f() energy distribution of electron macroparticles at the left electrode, is kinetic energy of macroparticle [eV].
