Systematic studies of fission fragment kinetic energy distributions by Langevin simulations

Fission fluctuation-dissipation dynamics of heavy nuclei has been studied using Langevin Monte Carlo simulations. The covariant form of the fission transport equation and the coefficients related to it are investigated. To learn about the influence of the dynamics from the ground state to the saddle point on the kinetic energy distributions we have studied various systems and compared the calculations both starting from the ground state and from the saddle point. Both the mean total kinetic energy of the fission fragments and its variances can fit with the experimental values in terms of a finite neck radius as scission condition.This work was supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China.     

Low energy asymptotics for Schrödinger operators with slowly decreasing potentials

Low energy behavior of Schrödinger operators with potentials which decay slowly at infinity is studied. It is shown that if the potential is positive then the zero energy is very regular and the resolvent is smooth near 0. This implies rapid local decay for the solutions of the Schrödinger equation. On the other hand, if the potential is negative then the resolvent has discontinuity at zero energy. Thus one cannot expect local decay faster than ordert ^–1 ast.     

Radiation patterns of electric dipole antenna in the presence of a biisotropic sphere

Analytic expressions of the dyadic Green's function of an arbitrary electric current source embedded in a general biisotropic sphere are presented at first, and the radiation characteristics of an electric dipole antenna placed on the surface of a biisotropic sphere lens are examined. The effects of the electric-and the magnetic-coefficients ( _e and _m ) of biisotropic medium on the radiation patterns of electric dipole antenna are investigated in detail.
