Determination of accuracy in measuring the parameters of tetragonal and hexagonal lattices

The procedure for determining the accuracy when measuring the parameters of tetragonal and hexagonal lattices is described. The accuracy can easily be calculated for all common methods by means of graphically represented functions. The relations derived can be used as quantitative criteria for the suitability of the combination of lines from which the lattice parameters are to be determined.

Polarization of photo-luminescence of ZnS: Cu monocrystals

Different models of luminescence centres are discussed on the basis of measurements of the composition of ZnS monocrystal photo-luminescence in different polarizations and temperature dependence of the degree of polarization. Those of the models submitted by Birman, which assume the polarization to be due to the different force of the oscillators for transitions withEc andEc, or models assuming luminescence polarization to be due to the orientation of the luminescence centres, agree with the results of experiments, i.e. the temperature independence of the degree of polarization and the conformable spectral composition of both polarizations. It is also shown that measurements made up to now of the degree of polarization must be taken as orientational as a consequence of the depolarizing influence of the diffused rays of luminescence on its value.

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.

Summation formulae in the theory of thin films

On the basis of general summation formulae for light reflected and transmitted by a thin film the author derives formulae for a thin dielectric film, for a thin metallic film and for a system of thin dielectric films. This solution is based on Stokes's principle of reversibility, which is the idea unifying the cases into one theory. In conclusion he gives the solution of a general case, dealing with light reflected and transmitted by a system of thin dielectric and metallic films.

Studium der photodielektrischen Erscheinung an lumineszierenden Zinkkadmiumsulfiden

Zusammenfassung Die spektrale Abhägigkeit der photodielektrischen Eigenschaften der lumineszierenden Zinkkadmiumsulfide verschiedener Zusammensetzung zeigt, da eine Beimengung von Kupfer das Eintreten von Zuständen mit groer Polarisierbarkeit hervorruft, die eine Änderung der realen Komponente der Dielektrizitätskonstanten zur Folge haben. Die Kupferkonzentration kann dabei so gering sein, da sie in der Lumineszenzemission gar nicht zur Geltung kommt. Die Infrarotmaxima der Verluste entsprechen Niveaus, die von anderen Autoren und mit anderen Methoden festgestellt wurden. Das Maximum des Exzitationsspektrums im Bereiche des Ausläufers der Absorptionskante hängt mit dem Maximum der Änderung der realen Komponente der Dielektrizitätskonstante zusammen.

Radiative corrections to the electron polarization in the beta decay of a free neutron

An expression for the electromagnetic radiative corrections of the order (=1/137) to the longitudinal polarization degree of the electron in the beta decay of a free neutron is derived in the approximation /M1 ( is the neutron-proton mass difference,M — mass of the neutron). The corrections are not larger than 0·2% and it seems that they cannot explain the deviation of the experimental value for the electron polarization from the value –v/c (measured in the beta decay of nuclei).

Rapid graphical determination of the radial intensity distribution of the small-angle scattering of X-rays from the measured data

The radially symmetrical small-angle scattering pattern (which would be obtained by the use of a direct beam having a point-like cross section) is in practice distorted, especially by the beam height. To eliminate this distortion the integration of a set of curves based on the derivative of the measured intensity distribution is required to derive the true radial intensity distribution. A rapid graphical method of plotting these curves is described and its accuracy is proved on an example. It is further shown that the radial intensity distribution can be determined in principle using the values of the measured curve instead of its derivative.

A study of the influence of dislocations on some of the magnetic properties of permalloy alloys

The influence of dislocations produced during plastic pulling on some magnetic properties is studied experimentally with special attention to the coercive force of Fe-Ni alloys with a cubic face-centred lattice. Vicena's theory of the influence of dislocations on the coercive force is rendered more accurate and the dependences of the coercive force on the plastic lengthening of the samples are derived for the above-mentioned alloys; the results are compared with the measured dependences. The observed anomalies are explained.

Ermüdungserscheinungen der infrarotbestrahlten Silber-Cäsium-Photokathoden

Zusammenfassung In dieser Arbeit werden die Erscheinungen der normalen und anomalen, durch Infrarotstrahlung verursachten und von uns schon früher an diesen Photokatoden beobachteten Ermüdung von Silber-Cäsium-Photokathoden untersucht. Diese Erscheinungen wurden an durchsichtigen sowie undurchsichtigen, durch verschiedene Technologien zubereiteten Photokathoden festgestellt. Es wurden Messungen der Strahlungsintensitäts-, Temperatur- und Spektralverteilungsabhängigkeit der normalen und anomalen Ermüdung durchgeführt. Es werden die Ursachen der Unübereinstimmigkeit im Vergleich mit Arbeiten von De Boer und Teves besprochen. Ferner wurden die Zeitverläufe der Ermüdung bei der Abwechslung der Bestrahlungs- und Dunkelzyklen studiert.

The distribution of ions and their valencies in manganese ferrites II. Mn1+xFe2-xO4+y ferrites

The influence of the oxygen content on the saturation magnetic moment and the Curie temperature was studied experimentally on non-stoichiometric manganese ferrites having a varying excess of manganese. Taking into consideration the results of studying the electrical conductivity and magnetic relaxation effects, a model was elaborated for the distribution of ions in these ferrites, which starts out from the distribution of ions in stoichiometric manganese ferrite. The experimental results obtained by us and those of other authors confirm the justification of this model.

On the relation between the thickness dependence of optical absorption and the surface layers of barium titanate single crystals

Single crystals of BaTiO₃, prepared by crystallization in the system BaCl₂-BaO-BaTiO₃-show a dependence of the optical absorption coefficient on the sample thickness. The observed thickness dependence of the absorption coefficient can be explained by the existence of a surface layer with optical properties differing from those of the inner part of the crystal. By means of an etching method a direct determination of the thickness of the surface layer of crystals in the thickness range of 0.075 to 0.178 mm was carried out. The value found is (6.0±0.2)×10^-4 cm.
