Virial expansion for the radial distribution function of a fluid using the 6 : 12 potential

The radial distribution function can be expressed in a virial expansion. Using the 6 : 12 potential the second-order density coefficient, g ₂(r), is numerically calculated for a wide range of temperatures and intermolecular separations. These results are used to calculate the second-order density coefficient, c ₂(r), in the expansion of the direct correlation function and to calculate the fourth virial coefficient, B ₄. In addition, approximate results for g ₂(r), c ₂(r), and B ₄ are calculated on the basis of the Percus-Yevick, hypernetted chain, and the self-consistent approximations of Hurst and Rowlinson. These approximate results are compared with the exact results. The Percus-Yevick theory is in good agreement with the exact results at high temperatures but is unsatisfactory at low temperatures. The hyper-netted-chain approximation is in fair agreement with the exact results at high temperatures, is in poor agreement at intermediate temperatures, but is in good agreement at low temperatures. The self-consistent approximations are in reasonably good agreement with the exact calculations at all temperatures.

Comparative Studies of the Exchange-Correlation Potential Formulas for Coulomb Systems

The exchange-correlation part (xc) to the free energy is numerical evaluated in the RPA at arbitrary degree of degeneracy. The results are compared with numerical data of easy-to-use analytic fit-formulas or Padé approximants of the xc-term. All together results show very high accuracy at extremly high densities (r_s ≈ 1). The agreements disappear between the several formulas for increasing Brueckner parameter r_s. Numerical results for the xc-potentials (pressure and chemical potential) at finite temperatures for an electron-ion system are given. The xc-part of the ground state energy of our electron-ion model is compared with the ground state energy for metallic hydrogen and with Monte-Carlo calculations.     

Reactivity at the oxygen/titania interface and the related charge transfer

The present paper reports the reactivity between TiO₂ and oxygen and the related charge transfer at 298 and 1,073 K. The studies were performed using work function measurements. It was found that oxidation of TiO₂ at 1,073 K and p(O₂) = 75 kPa, initially standardized at 1,173 K and p(O₂) = 10 Pa, results in work function changes that are consistent with the theoretical model of the charge transfer during oxygen chemisorption and oxygen incorporation at the absence of structural transitions. However, oxidation of TiO₂ at 298 K, p(O₂) = 75 kPa, which has been initially standardized at 1,173 K in extremely reducing conditions at p(O₂) = ∼10⁻¹⁰ Pa, results in work function changes that are consistent with low-dimensional structural changes of the surface layer. It is shown that oxidation of strongly reduced TiO₂ at 298 K results in a decrease of work function, which cannot be explained without assuming the structural changes of the outermost surface layer.     

Sulphidation-induced changes in the metallic phase of Fe-Cr alloys

The influence of sulphidation on the metallic phase in a series of Fe_100–x Cr _x alloys (x<15) was investigated by means of⁵⁷Fe Mössbauer spectroscopy. The results obtained gave evidence that the sulphidation at 1073 K is selective in the atmosphere of H₂/H₂S, with the partial pressure of sulphur ranging from 10^–7 to 10^–9 atm. Atx _cr=5.0(1) at.%, a change of the sulphidation preference occurs. Forx<5.0 at.%, the sulphidation results in an enrichment of the metallic phase in chromium, while forx> 5.0 at.%, in iron.     

Measurement of the tensor analyzing power Ayy in the inelastic scattering of deuterons in the vicinity of excitation of baryonic resonances

The tensor A_yy and vector A_y analyzing powers in the inelastic scattering of deuterons with a momentum of 4.5 GeV/c on beryllium at an angle of 80 mr in the vicinity of baryonic resonances excitation have been measured. The A_yy data being in good agreement with the previous results obtained at a zero angle demonstrate an approximate t scaling up to - 0.9 (GeV/c)². The results of the experiment are compared with the predictions of the multiple-scattering and -meson exchange models. Received: 20 April 2000 / Accepted: 29 May 2000     

Numerical calculation of the fidelity for the Kondo and the Friedel-Anderson impurities

The fidelities of the Kondo and the Friedel-Anderson (FA) impurities are calculated numerically. The ground states of both systems are calculated with the FAIR (Friedel artificially inserted resonance) theory. The ground state in the interacting systems is compared with a nullstate in which the interaction is zero. The different multi-electron states are expressed in terms of Wilson states. The use of N Wilson states simulates the use of a large effective number N _eff of states. A plot of ln(F) versus N ∝ ln(N _eff ) reveals whether one has an Anderson orthogonality catastrophe at zero energy. The results are at first glance surprising. The ln(F) – ln(N _eff ) plot for the Kondo impurity diverges for large N _eff . On the other hand, the corresponding plot for the symmetric FA impurity saturates for large N _eff when the level spacing at the Fermi level is of the order of the singlet-triplet excitation energy. The behavior of the fidelity allows one to determine the phase shift of the electron states in this regime.     

Magnetic properties of the weak ferromagnet NiCO3 in the paramagnetic range

Detailed magnetization measurements up toH=6T have been performed on a powdered specimen of the weak ferromagnet NiCO₃ in the temperature rangeT _c <T<4T _c . Starting atT=1.15T _c , an excellent agreement is found at all temperatures between the experimental values of the magnetization and those calculated up toH ³ terms in an extension ofDzyaloshinsky's theory of weak ferromagnetism. Both isotropic and antisymmetrical exchange constants are determined and found in good agreement with previous low temperature magnetization results. These results indicate that at allT>1.15T _c , the molecular field approximation satisfactorily describes the magnetic properties of NiCO₃.

New search for T violation in the decays of the charged kaon

We report the results of the measurement of T-violating transverse muon polarization in the decays K ⁺→μ ⁺ ν _μ π ⁰ (K _μ3) and K ⁺→μ ⁺ ν _μ γ(K _μ2γ) performed in experiment E246 at KEK. The preliminary results obtained for the entire data set taken in the period 1996–2000 are consistent with no T violation in both decays.

     

Is there a hadron spin-flip contribution to the Coulomb-hadron interference at small momentum transfer and high energies?

The analysing power A_N is examined in the range of the Coulomb-hadron interference on the basis of the experimental data from p_L = 6 GeV/c up to 200 GeV/c taking account of a phenomenological analysis at p_L = 6 GeV/c and a dynamic high-energy spin model. The results are compared with the new RHIC data at p_L = 100 GeV/c. The new experimental data obtained at RHIC indicate small contributions of the hadron spin-flip amplitude.     

Measurements of the two and three spin-index observables inn p elastic scattering between 0.80 and 1.10 GeV

We present data of several rescattering observables measured inn p elastic scattering between 0.80 and 1.10 GeV. The SATURNE II polarized beam of free neutrons obtained from the break-up of polarized deuterons was scattered on the Saclay polarized frozen-spin proton target. Three different configurations of beam and target polarization directions were used: the observablesD _onon andK _onno were measured with the normal-normal spin configuration at eight energies;N _onkk ,D _os″ok andK _os″ko were determined with the longitudinal-longitudinal configuration at six energies;N _onsk ,D _os″ok andK _os″so with the sideway-longitudinal configuration at six energies. Part of the data was obtained with an unpolarized CH₂ target where only the two spin-index polarization transfer parametersK _os″ko andK _os″so were determined. Data are compared with phase shift analyses predictions and with the LAMPF results at 0.788 GeV. Present results are the first measurements of rescattering observables above 0.80 GeV. They provide an important contribution to any future theoretical or phenomenological analysis.

     

Size Effect of the Immediate Surround for the Border between the Natural and Unnatural Object Color Appearance

The border luminance of the test stimulus between the natural and unnatural object color, y_ynB_u was obtained for different spatial sizes of the immediate surround to prove that _nB_u can be determined based on a new recognized visual space of illumination (RVSI) that is assumed to be constructed for the immediate surround separately from the RVSI for the subjects room itself. The _nB_u of five test stimuli were determined for six different sizes covering from zero to 1866 cm² with four different lightnesses, N4, N6 and N8, while keeping the room illuminance constant at 100 or 600 lx. The results showed that luminance of the border _nB_u gradually decreased as the size of the immediate surround was increased and that the decrease was larger for immediate surround with lower lightness. The results were interpreted as showing a new RVSI constructed for the spatial extent of the immediate surround of the test stimulus, and the RVSI was more completely constructed for larger spatial size of the immediate surround. © 2005 The Optical Society of Japan     

Ferrimagnetic phase transition in the system Li0.5Fe2.52−x GaxO4 in the vicinity of the multicritical point of the x-T phase diagram

In connection with the problem of identifying magnetic states in the vicinity of x ₀ (the multicritical point of the x-T diagrams of spin-glass systems) a study has been made of properties that can be exploited to determine the presence of a thermodynamic phase transition at the Curie point T _C and the distinctive features of the transition, specifically, the temperature dependence of the magnetic part of the specific heat C _m(T), the temperature dependence of the low-field magnetization σ _H(T), and (with a view toward examining critical behavior in a magnetic field) the magnetization isotherms σ _H(T). The investigated object is the system of dilute ferrimagnetic spinels Li_0.5Fe_2.5−x Ga_xO₄, in which every type of magnetic state has spatially inhomogeneous cluster structures. The results obtained for a sample with x=1.45 indicate that the classical criteria of a ferrimagnetic second-order phase transition at T _C=(97±2) K occur for x∼x ₀. The results of similar investigations for a sample with x=1.6, which exists in the cluster spin-glass state for T<T _f=22 K and in an uncorrelated cluster state of the superparamagnetic type for T>T _f, are also given for comparison with the preceding case.

Fluorescence Spectrometric Studies on the Binding of an Amino-Functionalized Ionic Liquid to Cytochrome c

The interaction of an amino-functionalized ionic liquid, 1-(2-aminoethyl)-3-butylimidazolium bromide ([NH₂C₂C₄im]Br), with cytochrome c (cyt c) at pH 7.4 was investigated using fluorescence and UV-Vis absorption spectroscopic techniques. From the experimental results, it is found that cyt c has a strong ability to quench the intrinsic fluorescence of [NH₂C₂C₄im]Br and the quenching mechanism is considered as a static quenching process. The binding constants and the number of binding sites (n) were calculated at different temperatures. The thermodynamic parameters such as free energy change (ΔG), enthalpy change (ΔH), and entropy change (ΔS) were calculated by thermodynamic equations. According to the results, the values of ΔG, ΔH, and ΔS are all negative, suggesting that interaction between [NH₂C₂C₄im]Br and cyt c is spontaneous and mainly driven by hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces.

Variation of the galactic force law in the region of the Sun

From the radial velocity data for O-B5 stars within 3 kpc of the Sun the variation of the semi-axesΣ ₁ andΣ ₂ of the velocity ellipsoid in the solar region is estimated. It is found that both the semi-axes as well as their ratioΣ ₂/Σ ₁ decrease away from the galactic centre. The value ofΣ ₂/Σ ₁ changes from 1.17 atR=9 kpc to 0.48 atR=11 kpc passing through a value of 0.86 at the solar distance ofR ₀=10 kpc. These results are consistent with the usually assumed inverse square law of force in the outer regions of the galaxy.     

Nucleon Properties Below the Critical Point Temperature

In this paper, we extended our work (Abu-Shady, Int. J. Theory Phys. 49:2425, 2010) to include nucleon properties. The field equations have been solved in the mean-field approximation using the effective mesonic potential at finite temperature. We found that the nucleon first mass increases up to \frac45 T_c\frac{4}{5} T_{c} MeV (where T _c is the critical point temperature) then decreases at higher values of temperature which approach the critical temperature (T _c ). In addition, we found that the magnetic moments of the proton and neutron can be increased by increasing the temperature up to the critical temperature. Moreover, we examined the axial coupling constant g _A (0), and the pion-nucleon coupling constant g _πNN (0) as functions of temperature. The obtained results are compared with previous works. From the results, we conclude that finite temperature plays a significant role in the change of behavior of nucleon properties.
