RHIC束流能量扫描实验中正反粒子椭圆流的平均场势效应（英文）

最近,STAR合作体在相对论重离子对撞机的束流能量扫描实验中观测到了正反粒子的椭圆流劈裂。基于输运模型,发现丰重子介质中正反粒子平均场势的不同可以解释其椭圆流的劈裂。利用Nambu-Jona-Lasinio模型描述相对论重离子碰撞的部分子相,发现实验中正反粒子的相对椭圆流劈裂可以用来约束该模型中夸克矢量相互作用的耦合系数。这一发现对确定QCD相图的临界点位置和理解整个QCD的相结构有重要意义。     

Intramolecular coupling of vibrational modes and the assignments of the partially deuterated dihalogenomethanes, -silanes, and -germanes

The fundamental vibrational wavenumbers of seven molecules of the type MHDX₂ (where M = C, Si, Ge and X = F, Cl, Br) have been calculated from those of the corresponding species MH₂X₂ and MD₂X₂, using the complete isotopic rule of Brodersen and Langseth. These wave-numbers have been used to test the force fields previously computed for the MH₂X₂ and MD₂X₂ molecules. The potential energy distributions calculated for the MHDX₂ species have been employed as aids in clarifying the assignments of their vibrational spectra.     

相对论带电费密子Liouville方程

作为密度矩阵一种形式的Wigner函数是量子相空间里的分布。用它描述相对论费密子时,它的通常表达形式为4×4矩阵函数。本文得到相对论带电费密子的2×2矩阵形式的Wigner函数以及它所满足的Liouville方程。这一方程与量子电动力学里带电费密子满足的Dirac方程完全等价。在描述中能核碰撞的Walecka模型里,当只有矢量介子(或标量介于取平均场近似)时,核子满足一定形式的Dirac方程。本文的方程也与之等价。还证明了(2×2)Wigner函数与相对论费密子的波函数在描述量子体系上起着同样的作用。量子体系的可观察量的全部知识都可以通过这里的Wigner函数得到。 关键词：     

On enhancement of spectral contrast in speech for hearing-impaired listeners

A digital processing method is described for altering spectral contrast (the difference in amplitude between spectral peaks and valleys) in natural utterances. Speech processed with programs implementing the contrast alteration procedure was presented to listeners with moderate to severe sensorineural hearing loss. The task was a three alternative (/b/,/d/, or /g/) stop consonant identification task for consonants at a fixed location in short nonsense utterances. Overall, tokens with enhanced contrast showed moderate gains in percentage correct stop consonant identification when compared to unaltered tokens. Conversely, reducing spectral contrast generally reduced percent correct stop consonant identification. Contrast alteration effects were inconsistent for utterances containing /d/. The observed contrast effects also interacted with token intelligibility.     

DYNAMIC ANALYSIS OF LARGE-DIAMETER SAGGED CABLES TAKING INTO ACCOUNT FLEXURAL RIGIDITY

For the purpose of developing a vibration-based tension force evaluation procedure for bridge cables using measured multimode frequencies, an investigation on accurate finite element modelling of large-diameter sagged cables taking into account flexural rigidity and sag extensibility is carried out in this paper. A three-node curved isoparametric finite element is formulated for dynamic analysis of bridge stay cables by regarding the cable as a combination of an “ideal cable element” and a fictitious curved beam element in the variational sense. With the developed finite element formulation, parametric studies are conducted to evaluate the relationship between the modal properties and cable parameters lying in a wide range covering most of the cables in existing cable-supported bridges, and the effect of cable bending stiffness and sag on the natural frequencies. A case study is eventually provided to compare the measured natural frequencies of main cables of the Tsing Ma Bridge and the computed frequencies with and without considering cable bending stiffness. The results show that ignoring bending stiffness gives rise to unacceptable errors in predicting higher order natural frequencies of the cables, and the proposed finite element formulation provides an accurate baseline model for cable tension identification from measured multimode frequencies.     

STOCHASTIC AVERAGING OF DUHEM HYSTERETIC SYSTEMS

The response of Duhem hysteretic system to externally and/or parametrically non-white random excitations is investigated by using the stochastic averaging method. A class of integrable Duhem hysteresis models covering many existing hysteresis models is identified and the potential energy and dissipated energy of Duhem hysteretic component are determined. The Duhem hysteretic system under random excitations is replaced equivalently by a non-hysteretic non-linear random system. The averaged Ito's stochastic differential equation for the total energy is derived and the Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equation associated with the averaged Ito's equation is solved to yield stationary probability density of total energy, from which the statistics of system response can be evaluated. It is observed that the numerical results by using the stochastic averaging method is in good agreement with that from digital simulation.     

Molecular vibrational constants of some simple polyatomic molecules. Methyl,silyl, and germyl halides

The force constants and compliance constants of methyl, silyl, and germyl fluoride, chloride, bromide, and iodide have been calculated by the iterative consistency method. Using the force fields so obtained, centrifugal distortion constants, Coriolis coupling constants, and mean amplitudes of vibration have been computed and compared with experimental data, where available.
