Electron beam interactions with CO on W {100} studied by Auger electron spectroscopy

The interaction of 2500 eV electrons with carbon monoxide chemisorbed on tungsten {100} was investigated by rapid-scan Auger electron spectroscopy. When no α state was present the O and C signals from the β state of CO were invariant during electron bombardment, giving an upper limit estimate for the electron stimulated desorption cross section, Q_β of 2 × 10^?21 cm². With the crystal at room temperature and saturated with CO, however, electron-beam induced accumulation of carbon was observed and characterised, the rate of the process being independent of CO pressure at pressures above 2 × 10^?8 Torr. At 450 K the rate was found to be pressure dependent up to at least 6 × 10^?7 Torr. A model is proposed for the accumulation process, which is based on electron beam dissociation of α₂-CO to form adsorbed carbon and gaseous O and the creation of new sites for further α₂-CO adsorption; it is in quantitative agreement with the results and yields a cross section for ESD of α₂-CO (Q_α2 = 1.55×10^?18cm²) in close agreement with direct measurements.     

Absolute intensity measurements of the CO2 bands 401III←000 and 411III←010

The absolute intensities of the transitions 401_III←000 and 411_III←010 of CO₂ have been measured from spectra obtained under high resolution. Both the vibration-rotation line intensities and the integrated band intensities are reported. The rotationless transition moment of 401_III←000 is deduced and a vibration-rotation interaction factor F(m) = 1+(4.92×10^?4)m+(4.4×10^?7)m² is determined. The values obtained are: S_Band(401_III←000) = (25.54±0.22)×10^?5 cm^?2atm_{(293 K)}^?1, |R₀₀₀^401_III| = (1.87±0.02)×10^?4D, and S_Band(411_III←010) = (1.83±0.13)×10^?5 cm^?2atm_{(293 K)}^?1.     

Magnetic moment of the 5/2−1/2[541] ground state of 14h 185Ir

The magnetic and electric hyperfine splitting frequencies ¦gμ _N B _HF/h¦ ande ² qQ/h of the 5/2^?1/2[541] ground state of 14h ¹⁸⁵Ir in Ni were measured with nuclear magnetic resonance on oriented nuclei to be 360.8(7) MHz and +6.7(2.0) MHz, respectively. The ground state magnetic dipole moment and electric quadrupole moment of¹⁸⁵Ir are deduced to be ¦μ¦=2.601 (14)μ _N andQ=?1.9(5)b, taking values for the hyperfine field and electric field gradient of B_HF=?454.9 (2.3) kG and eq=?0.151(4) × 10¹⁷ V/cm², respectively. The negative quadrupole moment is in agreement with nuclear-orientation data and proves again theI ^π K=5/2^? 1/2 ground state configuration.     

High-precision evaluation of the magnetic moment of the helion

NMR spectra of samples containing a mixture of hydrogen deuteride HD with pressure of about 80 atm and helium-3 with partial pressure of about 1 atm are analyzed. The ratio of the resonance frequencies of the nuclei, F(³He)/F(H₂), is determined to be 0.761786594(2), which is equal to the magnetic moment of the helion (bound in a helium atom) in the units of the magnetic moment of a proton (bound in molecular hydrogen). The uncertainty of two digits in the last place corresponds to a relative error of ??[F(³He)/F(H₂)] = 2.6 × 10^?9. The use of the known calculated data on the shielding of nuclei in the helium-3 atom (??(³He) = 59924(2) × 10^?9) and on the shielding of protons in hydrogen (??(H₂) = 26288(2) × 10^?9) yields a value of ??(³He)/?? _p = ?0.761812217(3) for the free magnetic moment of the helion in the units of the proton magnetic moment.     

Magnetic moment relaxation of a shallow acceptor center in heavily doped silicon

Results of studying the temperature dependence of the residual polarization of negative muons in crystalline silicon with germanium (9×10 ¹⁹ cm ^?3 ) and boron (4.1×10 ¹⁸ , 1.34×10 ¹⁹ , and 4.9×10 ¹⁹ cm ^?3 ) impurities are presented. It is found that, similarly to n-and p-type silicon samples with impurity concentrations up to ～10 ¹⁷ cm ^?3 , the relaxation rate ν of the magnetic moment of a _μ Al acceptor in silicon with a high impurity concentration of germanium (9×10 ¹⁹ cm ^?3 ) depends on temperature as ν～T ^q , q≈3 at T=(5–30) K. An increase in the absolute value of the relaxation rate and a weakening of its temperature dependence are observed in samples of degenerate silicon in the given temperature range. Based on the experimental data obtained, the conclusion is made that the spin-exchange scattering of free charge carriers makes a significant contribution to the magnetic moment relaxation of a shallow acceptor center in degenerate silicon at T?30 K. Estimates are obtained for the effective cross section of the spin-exchange scattering of holes (σ _h ) and electrons (σ _e ) from an Al acceptor center in Si: σ _h ～10^?13 cm² and σ _e ～8×10^?15 cm² at the acceptor (donor) impurity concentration n _a (n _d )～4×10¹⁸ cm^?3.     

Investigation of224Ra in the226Ra(α, α′ 2n) reaction

Positive and negative parity bands have been followed up to 10⁺ (possibly 12⁺) and 11^? in²²⁴Ra and are compared to the corresponding bands in the isotone²²⁶Th. If a constant value of the intrinsic quadrupole moment is assumed for allE2 transitions in²²⁴Ra theE1/E2 branching ratios are consistent with an intrinsic dipole moment of ¦Q₁¦=0.032(3)e·fm. This small value, as compared to ¦Q₁¦=0.30(2)e·fm for²²⁶Th, can be explained by an almost complete cancellation of large positive liquid-drop and negative shell-model contributions.     

Measurement of the proton structure function F 2 at low x and low Q 2 at HERA

We report on a measurement of the proton structure function F ₂ in the range 3.5 × 10^?5 ≤ x ≤ 4 × 10^?3 and 1.5 GeV² ≤ Q ² ≤ 15 GeV² at the ep collider HERA operating at a centre-of-mass energy of ${sqrt s} = 300 {? GeV}$. The rise of F ₂ with decreasing x observed in the previous HERA measurements persists in this lower x and Q ² range. The Q ² evolution of F ₂, even at the lowest Q ² and x measured, is consistent with perturbative QCD.     

Bromide ion conductivities of eutectic mixtures of quaternary ammonium bromides possessing long alkyl chains

Several quaternary ammonium bromides possessing long alkyl chains and their mixtures were found to be bromide ion conductors. The ionic conductivities of quaternary ammonium bromides themselves were lower than 10^?9 S cm^?1 at a room temperature. On the other hand, the eutectic mixtures of the quaternary ammonium bromides showed large increase of ionic conductivity. The best bromide ion conductors were found for the eutectic of Q₅, Q₇, Q₈, and Q₁₂: 4×10^?8 S cm^?1 at 30°C, and 6.3×10^?6 S cm^?1 at 50°C. Addition of asymmetric quarternary ammonium bromides had a negative effect on the ionic conductivity. These results were explained by a space filling factor in the solid.     

The moment of inertia of the proto neutron star PSR J0348+0432 under neutrino trapped

The moment of inertia of the proto neutron star PSR J0348+0432 is studied in the framework of relativistic mean field theory under neutrino trapped. We find that the temperature of the PNS PSR J0348+0432 increases with the increase of the baryon number density and at the center of the star it is in the range T_c = 41.662–45.685 MeV. Corresponding to the observation mass 1.97–2.05 M_⊙, the radius of the NS PSR J0348+0432 is in the range 12.948–12.16 km whereas that of the PNS PSR J0348+0432 is in the range 14.46–13.561 km. The radius of the PNS PSR J0348+0432 has increased by 11.7%–11.5% compared with that of the NS PSR J0348+0432. The central moment of inertia of the PNS PSR J0348+0432 is in the range 2.207?×?10⁴⁵–1.914?×?10⁴⁵ g cm² whereas that of the NS PSR J0348+0432 is only in the range 1.9?×?10⁴⁵–1.552?×?10⁴⁵ g cm². Compared with the moment of inertia of the NS PSR J0348+0432, the central moment of inertia of the PNS PSR J0348+0432 increases by 16%–23%.     

Electric dipole moment and chromoelectric dipole moment of the top quark inSU(3)C×SU(3)L×U(1)X model

We show that inSU(3) _C ×SU(3) _L ×U(1) _X model, the leading contribution to the electric and chromolelectric dipole moment of the top quark is due to the one-loop diagrams which come from exchanging the charged and neutral Higgs bosons. The dipole moments are typically of the order of 10^?19 e-cm and 10^?19 g-cm respectively, for the values of relative phases of the vev's such that CP violation is maximal. From an experimental point of view, theq ² dependence of dipole moment form factors is given.     

Photon-gluon fusion at HERA: measurement of the fractional momentum of the gluon in lowQ 2 events

We have performed a Monte Carlo study of photon-gluon interactions at theep collider HERA. We show that it is possible to determine the fractional momentum carried by the gluon (x _g) from hadronic informations alone. In particular, in the photoproduction region, where thex andQ ² are badly measured, this could be the only global physical variable of interest, together with the hadronic invariant mass. The study of these quantities would allow a direct measurement of the gluon density of the proton in the rangex _g=2.5×10^?3∶5×10^?1.     

Trapping probabilities and desorption energies of alkali atoms on a clean and an oxygen covered tungsten (110) surface

Alkali atoms were scattered with hyperthermal energies from a clean and an oxygen covered (θ ≈ 0.5 ML) W(110) surface. The trapping probability of K and Na atoms on oxygen covered W(110) has been measured as a function of incoming energy (0–30 eV) and incident angle. A considerable enhancement of trapping on the oxygen covered surface compared to a clean surface was observed. At energies above 25 eV there are still K and Na atoms being trapped by the oxygen covered surface. From the temperature dependence of the mean residence time τ of the initially trapped atoms the pre-exponential factor τ₀ and the desorption energy Q were derived using the relation: $\text{τ = τ}{}_0\text{exp}\text{(}\text{Q}\text{kT}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>s</mtext>}}\text{)}$. On clean W(110) we obtained for Li: $\text{τ}{}_0\text{= (8 ±}\text{8}\text{4}\text{) × 10}{}^{\mathrm{?14}}\text{sec}$, Q = (2.78 ± 0.09) eV; for Na: τ₀ = (9 ± 3) × 10^?14 sec, Q = (2.55 ± 0.04) eV; and for K: τ₀ = (4 ± 1) × 10^?13 sec, Q = (2.05 ± 0.02) eV. Oxygen covered W(110) gave for Na: τ₀ = (7 ±3) × 10^?15 sec, Q = (2.88 ± 0.05) eV; and for K: $\text{τ}{}_0\text{= (1.3 ±}\text{0.9}\text{0.6}\text{) × 10}{}^{\mathrm{?14}}\text{sec}$, Q = (2.48 ±0.05) eV. The adsorption on clean W(110) has the features of a supermobile two-dimentional gas; on the oxygen covered W(110) adsorbed atoms have the partition function of a one-dimen-sional gas. The binding of the adatoms to the surface has a highly ionic character in the systems of the present experiment. An estimate is given for the screening length of the non-perfect conductor W(110):k_s^?1≈ 0.5 Å.     

Collision-induced fundamental band of H2 in H2He and H2Ne mixtures at different temperatures

The collision-induced fundamental infrared absorption band of hydrogen in binary mixtures H₂He and H₂Ne at 77, 195, 273, and 298 K has been studied with absorption path lengths of 27 and 105 cm for gas densities up to 530 amagat for several base densities of hydrogen. In each of these mixtures the enhancement absorption profiles show, in addition to the usual splitting of the Q branch into the main Q_P and Q_R components, a splitting of the S(1) line into the S_P(1) and S_R(1) components at all the experimental temperatures and a secondary splitting of the main Q_P component into the Q_P(3) and Q_R(3) components at 273 and 298 K. The profiles of H₂He at 77 K also show a splitting of the S(0) line into S_P(0) and S_R(0). Integrated absorption coefficients were measured and binary and ternary absorption coefficients were derived. Van Kranendonk's theory of the ‘exponential-4’ model for the induced dipole moment was applied to the experimental binary absorption coefficients. The quadrupolar parts of these coefficients were calculated from the known molecular parameters and were then subtracted from the experimental values to obtain the overlap parts. The overlap parameters λ and ρ, giving respectively the magnitude and range of the overlap moment, were determined for each of the mixtures by obtaining the best fit of the calculated overlap part of the binary absorption coefficient as a function of temperature to the experimental values of the overlap parts. The values of λ, ρ, and μ(σ) (the overlap induced dipole moment at the Lennard-Jones intermolecular diameter σ) are as follows:

Zhu Qingshi  J.I. Steinfeld 《Journal of Molecular Spectroscopy》1981,89(2):405-412

The vibration-rotation spectrum of the ν₂ and ν₅ fundamentals of CDF₃ have been recorded using a Nicolet 7199 Fourier transform infrared spectrometer; in addition the Q branch and several subbands of each of these transitions have been investigated using a tunable semiconductor diode laser spectrometer. The Q branch and the K structure in several P(J) and R(J) subbands of ν₂, and in several Q branches of ν₅, are resolved and assigned for the first time. Constants derived for these bands are (in cm^?1) ν₂ = 1111.1823₆, B₂ = 0.32928₂, A₂ = 0.18872₂, α₂^B = 16.44₅ × 10^?4, α₂^B ? α₂^A = 12.43₅ × 10^?4, D₀^j = 3.7₃ × 10^?7, D₂^J = 4.8₃ × 10^?7; ν₅ = 975.39₁, B₅ = 0.33062, A₅ = 0.18887, α₅^B = 2.83₁ × 10^?4, α₅^A = 2.4₃ × 10^?4, ζ₅ = 0.736, D₅^J ? D₀^J = 1.2₂ × 10^?8. Some of these constants are nearly 100 times more precise than those reported in previous work.

R. Braunstein  K. Bärner 《Solid State Communications》1978,28(10):847-851

A ferroelectric phase transition has been observed for the first time in a series of glasses containing WO₆-octahedra. The techniques of thermally stimulated depolarization currents were used to observe the transition from independent dipole behavior to cooperative behavior in this amorphous system as a function of concentration. These measurements yielded the activation energy ΔE=1.2eV, the pre-exponential τ₀=2 × 10^-22sec, and the dipole moment p?=1.3 × 10^?15 esu cm for WO₃ in Li₂B₄O₇. A dipole moment bearing species due to Li₂B₄O₇ was observed with ΔE=0.44eV and pre-exponential τ₀=5 × 10^?8 sec. The depolarization peaks of WO₃ occur in the temperature range 265–275 K depending upon WO₃ concentration and are pressure dependent with an initial slope of 2 × 10^?5K dyne^?1 cm². A model was developed for a possible phase transition associated with a random “pseudo-spin” system in an amorphous matrix.

Measurements made at temperatures of 197, 233, and 294°K of the absolute intensities and self-broadening coefficients for the vibration-rotation lines of the 201_III←000 band of the ¹²C¹⁶O₂ molecule, are reported. From these measurements, values have been derived for the vibration-rotation interaction factor (F_VR), the purely vibrational transition moment (|R(O)|), and the intensity (S_Band). The results are: E_VR(m) = 1+(2.2±0.7)×10^?3m+(5.6±1.6)×10^×5m², |R(0)| = (2.064±0.017)×10^?3 debye, S_Band = 21,329±69 cm^?1km^?1atm^?1_STP.

A study of deuteron quadrupole moment effects in sub-coulomb scattering of tensor polarized deuterons     

J.E. Kammeraad  L.D. Knutson 《Nuclear Physics A》1985,435(2):502-522

Measurements of the tensor analyzing power T₂₀ are presented for deuteron elastic scattering from ²⁰⁸Pb at energies below the Coulomb barrier. It is found that, for energies below about 7 MeV, T₂₀ arises primarily from the interaction of the deuteron quadrupole moment with the nuclear electric field gradient. Contributions to T₂₀ from nuclear interactions with the target are shown to be very small for E_d ? 5 MeV. Measurements of T₂₀ at E_d = 4 MeV, accurate to ± 8 × 10^?5, are presented. After correcting for deuteron stretching and a number of additional small effects, the data are used to make a new determination of the quadrupole moment. The result, Q = 0.282 ± 0.019 fm², is in good agreement with the conventional value deduced from molecular hyperfine structure data.

We have obtained fully resolved spectra of the ν₁ (Q-branch) band of CF₄ at a pressure of 4 Torr using a variation of stimulated Raman spectroscopy. With an experimental resolution of ≤0.004 cm^?1, no detectable tensor splitting of the rotational levels exists up to J = 55. The spectrum is readily fit with a band origin α = 909.0720 cm^?1 and a single rotational term β ? β₀ = ?3.417 × 10^?1cm^?1. We have also observed an underlying hot band, which we tentatively assign as the ν₁ + ν₂ ← ν₂ transition, with α′ = 909.1997 cm^?1 and (β ? β₀)′ = ?3.405 × 10^?4cm^?1.
