On Characterization of Simple Orthogonal Groups of Odd Dimension in the Class of Periodic Groups

Siberian Mathematical Journal - Suppose that $ n $ is an integer, $ n\geq 3 $ . We prove that a periodic group saturated with a set of the finite simple groups $ O_{2n+1}(q) $ , where $ q $ is...     

Behavior of Andreev states for topological phase transition

Theoretical and Mathematical Physics - We consider three one-dimensional superconducting structures: 1) the one with $$p$$ -wave superconductivity; 2) the main experimental model of a nanowire with...

Majorana Representation for a Composite System

International Journal of Theoretical Physics - The Majorana representation, which provides an intuitive way to represent the quantum state by stars on the Bloch sphere, has drawn considerable...     

Scaling Behavior between Heat Capacity and Thermal Expansion in Solids

We experimentally analyze the heat capacity and thermal expansion of reference solids in a wide temperature range from several Kelvin to melting temperature,and establish a universal double-linear relation between the experimental heat capacity C_p and thermal expansion β,which is different from the previous models.The universal behavior between heat capacity and thermal expansion is important to predict the thermodynamic parameters at constant pressure,and is helpful for understanding the nature of thermal properties in solids.     

Quaternion Attitude Determination by Vector Measurement
