Theory of magnetoelectric effect in double-layer ferromagnetic-piezoelectric structures

A theory of magnetoelectric effect in double-layer ferromagnetic-piezoelectric plate-shape structures is presented. Using the material and motion of continuum equations, an expression for the magnetic coefficient is derived in terms of the parameters characterizing the magnetic and piezoelectric phases. It is shown that in the region of electromagnetic resonance there is a considerable increase in the magnetoelectric coefficient value. A relationship is obtained between the ferromagnetic and piezoelectric thicknesses for which the magnetoelectric coefficient is maximal. The coefficients calculated for the structures based on permendure — plumbum zirconate-titanate are given, and the results of calculations are compared to the experimental data.__________Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 12, pp. 3–6, December 2004.     

<Superscript>6</Superscript>He + <Superscript>6</Superscript>He Clustering of <Superscript>12</Superscript>Be in a Microscopic Algebraic Approach

The norm kernel of the A=12 system composed of two ⁶He clusters, and the L=0 basis functions (in the SU(3) and angular momentum-coupled schemes) are analytically obtained in the Fock-Bargmann space. The norm kernel has a diagonal form in the former basis, but the asymptotic conditions are naturally defined in the latter one. The system is a good illustration for the method of projection of the norm kernel to the basis functions in the presence of SU(3) degeneracy that was proposed by the authors. The coupled-channel problem is considered in the algebraic version of the resonating-group method, with the multiple decay thresholds being properly accounted for. The structure of the ground state of ¹²Be obtained in the approximation of zero-range nuclear force is compared with the shell-model predictions. In the continuum part of the spectrum, the S-matrix is constructed, the asymptotic normalization coefficients are deduced and their energy dependence is analyzed.     

Metrics of Homogeneous Spaces Admitting (3.1)-Type Complete Sets

A classification has been obtained for spaces which admit complete sets of motion integrals of the (3.1)-type and are spatially homogeneous. The metrics and Killing vectors have been found in explicit form for all types of these spaces. A classification by Bianchi is given for the spaces obtained.     

Mossbauer investigations of corrosion environment influence on Fe valence states in oxide films of zirconium alloys

Mössbauer investigations about iron atom redistribution in oxide films of zirconium alloys subjected to corrosion at 500°C in pure oxygen and water pair have been analysed. The alloys were also subjected to autoclave conditions at a pressure of 10.0 MPa and autoclave conditions at 350°C and at a pressure of 16.8 MPa, using distilled water and water with additives of lithium and fluorine. It is shown that, depending on the corrosion environment, various compounds of iron, such as α-Fe₂O₃, Fe₃O₄, and FeO, as solid solutions of iron in ZrO₂ are formed in oxide films.     

Plasmochemical Neutralization of Ozone-Destroying Chladones and Fluorine- and Chlorine-containing Wastes

A plasmochemical technique for neutralizing ozone-destroying chladones and fluorine- and chlorine-containing wastes is considered. Experimental results obtained on applying this technique to neutralization of some halogen-containing substances are presented, together with the information gained on using the technological scheme of the process in designing and constructing an industrial installation for neutralizing wastes of a plant manufacturing polytetrafluoroethylene.     

Paragrassmann differential calculus

This paper significantly extends and generalizes the paragrassmann calculus of our previous paper [1]. Here we discuss explicit general constructions for paragrassmann calculus with one and many variables. For one variable, nondegenerate differentiation algebras are identified and shown to be equivalent to the algebra of (p+1)×(p+1) complex matrices. If (p+1) is a prime integer, the algebra is nondegenerate and so unique. We then give a general construction of many-variable diffeentiation algebras. Some particular examples are related to multi-parametric quantum deformations of the harmonic oscillators.Dedication This paper is in memory of Mikhail Constantinovich Polivanov. One of the authors (A.T.F.) had a privilege to be a friend of him for many and many years. He was not only a distinguished scientist but a true Russian intellectual having deep roots in Russian culture. It is a deep sorrow that we can no more have a talk with him on science, poetry, religion ...Laboratory of Theoretical Physics, JINR, Dubna. SU-101 000 Moscow, Russia.
