In this paper, we study the influence of the Aharonov–Casher effect [Y. Aharonov, A. Casher, Phys. Rev. Lett. 53 (1984) 319] on the Dirac oscillator in three different scenarios of general relativity: the Minkowski spacetime, the cosmic string spacetime and the cosmic dislocation spacetime. In this way, we solve the Dirac equation and obtain the energy levels for bound states and the Dirac spinors for positive-energy solutions. We show that the relativistic energy levels depend on the Aharonov–Casher geometric phase. We also discuss the influence of curvature and torsion on the relativistic energy levels and the Dirac spinors due to the topology of the cosmic string and cosmic dislocation spacetimes. 相似文献
Observations by transmission electron microscopy are reported on the processes involved in polymer crystal growth during annealing. The observations suggest that crystal growth occurs by two processes. One process involves the melting of those regions of the crystals in which the melting point is lower than the annealing temperature. The polymer melt due to the melting process gradually becomes incorporated into the unmolten crystals, resulting in crystal growth. The alternative process is solid-state crystal growth by the migration of the amorphous region between crystallites. 相似文献
The dual basis set approach has proven to be very successful for accurately estimating total energies with large basis sets. This study extends the applications of this technique to the calculation of molecular properties, including energy derivatives with respect to nuclear positions and to an external electric field. All energy derivatives have been calculated numerically via finite-differences. Molecular gradients and Hessians as well as dipole moments and polarizabilites have been calculated at the HF and MP2 levels using two alternative versions of the dual basis set method. The accuracy of these approaches is discussed in the context of quality of basis sets used in calculations. It is shown that even quite poor results obtained with the 6-311G basis set are significantly improved in dual basis set calculations with the 6-311G(d,p) and 6-311G(3df,3dp) basis sets. 相似文献
This review contains up-to-date information about experimental and theoretical investigations of phase transitions and specific features of properties of mixed crystals involving the incipient ferroelectric KTaO3 with the off-center Li+, Nb5+, Na+ impurities. Main attention is paid to the results of the study of the mixed systems by radiospectroscopy methods (ESR and NMR). Theoretical criteria and experimental evidence of ferroelectric and ferroelastic phase transitions as well as of dipole and quadrupolar glass states induced by the off-center impurities are discussed. It is shown that at high enough concentrations of the off-center impurities phases with long-range order appear, but at low concentrations dipole glass states occur. At intermediate concentrations of the off-center impurities new phases appear in which the coexistence of long-range properties and those of dipole glasses is possible. These phases could be named ferroelectric or ferroelastic glasses to stress their similarity with the ferroglass phases which were discovered earlier in mixed magnetic systems. The usefulness of radiospectroscopy methods for the study of phase transitions induced by off-center impurities in mixed systems, which can be considered as model disordered systems, is underlined. In conclusion, some questions on the physics of phase transitions in disordered systems which should be solved in the future are discussed. 相似文献
The Abelian Born-Infeld classical non-linear Electrodynamic has been used to investigate the electric and magnetostatic fields
generated by a point-like electric charge at rest in an inertial frame. The results show a rich internal structure for the
charge. Analytical solutions have also been found. Such fields configurations have been interpreted in terms of vacuum polarization
and magnetic-like charges produced by the very high strengths of the electric field considered. Apparently non-linearity is
responsible for the emergence of an anomalous magnetostatic field suggesting a possible connection to that created by a magnetic
dipole composed of two magnetic charges with opposite signs. Consistently in situations where the Born-Infeld field strength
parameter is free to become infinite, Maxwell’s regime takes over, the magnetic sector vanishes and the electric field assumes
a Coulomb behavior with no trace of a magnetic component. The connection to other monopole solutions, like Dirac’s and ’tHooft’s
Poliakov’s types are also discussed. Finally, some speculative remarks are presented in an attempt to explain such fields. 相似文献
In this paper, we summarise the development of off-axis electron holography on biological samples starting in 1986 with the first results on ferritin from the group of Tonomura. In the middle of the 1990s strong interest was evoked, but then stagnation took place because the results obtained at that stage did not reach the contrast and the resolution achieved by conventional electron microscopy.
To date, there exist only a few (12) publications on electron holography of biological objects, thus this topic is quite small and concise. The reason for this could be that holography is mostly established in materials science by physicists. Therefore, applications for off-axis holography were powerfully pushed forward in the area of imaging, e.g. electric or magnetic micro- and nanofields. Unstained biological systems investigated by means of off-axis electron holography up to now are ferritin, tobacco mosaic virus, a bacterial flagellum, T5 bacteriophage virus, hexagonal packed intermediate layer of bacteria and the Semliki Forest virus. New results of the authors on collagen fibres and surface layer of bacteria, the so-called S-layer 2D crystal lattice are presented in this review. For the sake of completeness, we will shortly discuss in-line holography of biological samples and off-axis holography of materials related to biological systems, such as biomaterial composites or magnetotactic bacteria. 相似文献
