Local fields in single-mode helical fibres

The scalar local-field wave equations in helical fibres are derived and, with the aid of a special mathematical treatment, solved approximately in a local coordinate system—the Serret-Frenet frame from the Maxwell's equations. Two basic results are obtained: (1) The local modes in a single-mode helical fibre are circularly polarized. (2) The difference of the propagation constants between the two fundamental modes is 2, where is the torsion. They agree well with the known experimental measurements.     

Honeycomb domain structure

A theory is given of a new structure produced when demagnetizing uniaxial single crystals (e.g. magnetoplumbite) in a field normal to thec axis. The experimental results fully support the theory on the assumption that domain structures produced under normal conditions are metastable. Methods are given by which stable structures can be prepared from such metastable ones. On the basis of these results opinions are expressed as to the nucleation of plate and honeycomb structures, produced either by reducing the field from saturation or by cooling below the Curie point.

Calculation and optimization of parameters of radiating distributed feedback structures

A simple method is suggested for calculation of reflection, radiation and transmission coefficients for the distributed feedback structure in the second diffraction order. The method is based on a slight difference between coefficients of reflectionR and radiationI of the surface wave for = (where is the light wavelength corresponding to a precise resonance for the grating length I) and those for =_l (where _l is the light wavelength corresponding to the resonance for the finite grating length). The simplicity of the method makes it possible to use it for optimization of the distributed feedback structure by a number of parameters. The technique can be used in the case of thin-film and diffused waveguides for both TE and TM modes.     

Statistics of the One-Dimensional Riemann Walk

The Riemann walk is the lattice version of the Lévy flight. For the one-dimensional Riemann walk of Lévy exponent 0<<2 we study the statistics of the support, i.e., set of visited sites, after t steps. We consider a wide class of support related observables M(t), including the number S(t) of visited sites and the number I(t) of sequences of adjacent visited sites. For t we obtain the asymptotic power laws for the averages, variances, and correlations of these observables. Logarithmic correction factors appear for =2/3 and =1. Bulk and surface observables have different power laws for 1<2. Fluctuations are shown to be universal for 2/3 <2. This means that in the limit t the deviations from average M(t)M(t)–M-0304;(t-0304;) are fully described either by a single M independent stochastic process (when 2/3 <1) or by two such processes, one for the bulk and one for the surface observables (when 1<<2).     

Modulated traveling waves in nonequilibrium systems: The ‘blinking state’

For the first time we give an explanation of the mechanism underlying the generation of modulated traveling wave states in nonequilibrium systems, frequently denoted as blinking state. The blinking state is generated by two nonlinearly interacting oscillatory modes with slightly different eigenfrequencies. Frequency locking between these modes generate spatial patterns experimentally known as confined states.     

The quantum theory of multipole radiation in a dielectric

The potentials of an electromagnetic field of multipoles in a dielectric, which is realized by a dielectric sphere having a perfectly conducting surface, are derived. The diagonal values of the energy for thez component of the angular momentum and the square of the angular momentum of the field are determined and also the ratio between thez component of the angular momentum and the energy and the ratio between the square of the angular momentum and the square of the energy. It is shown that the total angular momentum can be divided in the usual way into orbital and spin parts but that these parts cannot be interpreted as the orbital and spin angular momentum because their eigenvalues cannot be the eigenvalues of any operator of infinitesimal rotation. In the commutation rules of a multipole field the vector character of the field is to a certain extent suppressed and the spin of the photon in a state with a certain value of the energy, parityz component of the angular momentum and the square of the angular momentum is not defined.

The influence of an alternating magnetic field on the remanent state of magnetically soft materials

A study is made of the influence of an alternating magnetic field of varying maximum amplitude on the remanent state, or rather, apparent remanent state of toroidal and open samples of metallic and non-metallic magnetically soft ferromagnetics. An interpretation of the corresponding dependences is given on the basis of Kondorski's conception of the composition of a polycrystalline jerromagnetic material.

     

On the ferromagnetism of thin films

In this paper the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic thin layers are studied by calculating the partition function for the magnetic system inKirkwood's approximation of the second order. The results obtained for the Curie temperature and the magnetization are in somewhat better agreement with the experiment than those obtained by Valenta.

Stability of a glow discharge in small currents

Two approximations of the dynamic characteristic of a glow discharge for small currents are derived. In the first approximation only the influence of the rate of rise and decay of charge carriers in the delay process is accounted for. In the second approximation, the influence of the rate of stabilization of the radial electric field in the discharge is added. On the basis of the derived equations the conditions for the simplest stability of the discharge are calculated. A comparison with experiment gives satisfactory results.

A contribution to the theory of the triple crystal diffractometer

The first part of the paper gives a general equation for triple-crystal arrangement with perfect crystals on the assumption that the third crystal is rotated. It is shown that in the case of perfect crystals the shape of the reflection curve is practically independent of the vertical divergence. The case of mosaic crystals is also solved and the possibility of rotation by other than the third crystal is considered. A method is proposed for investigating the imperfection of a crystal which is different from methods used up to now. The paper is supplemented by some experimental results.

Radiative capture of slow neutrons on atomic nuclei

The energies and absolute intensities of gamma radiation from the radiative capture of thermal neutrons on S³³, Cl³⁶, K⁴⁰, Ca⁴¹, V⁵², Mn⁵⁶ and Hg²⁰⁰ nuclei were measured by means of a one-crystal scintillation spectrometer. The transitions measured in the energy interval 100–1200 keV are mostly transitions between the lowest excited states of the nuclei studied.

A note on the theory of the successive production of moving striations in the plasma of inert gases

Approximate expressions are derived on the basis of Pekárek's theoretical paper [1] for the period of the maximum t_B of a wave packet produced by the passage of a wave of stratification before the aperture of a photomultiplier, and for its time width in the half-height t_B. The relaxation time of a wave of stratification, following from the theory [1], can thus be calculated by means of the experimentally measured velocity of motion of the maximum of a wave packet u and its width t_B. The calculation is supplemented by numerical data on the magnitude of errors committed by using approximate expressions.

     

Studium der Stationären und Laufenden Schichtung in der Entladung in Neon Mit Hilfe eines Lokalen Hochfrequenzfeldes

Zusammenfassung Es wurde ein Verfahren zur Erregung von stationären Schichten, der Schichtungswelle und der laufenden Schichten in der Gleichstromentladung ausgearbeitet, das auf der Einwirkung eines Hochfrequenzfeldes auf einen kurzen Abschnitt der positiven Säule beruht. Dieses Verfahren wurde zum Studium aller drei angeführten Schichtungsarten in Neon benützt, insbesondere jedoch zum Studium des Zusammenhanges zwischen den laufenden und den stationären Schichten.Bei stationären Schichten wurden zweifache Strukturen festgestellt und es wurde deren Abhängigkeit vom Entladungsstrom und von der Größe des erregenden Hochfrequenzfeldes verfolgt.Bei der Schichtungswelle wurde die Stelle deren Entstehung ermittelt und es wurde nachgewiesen, daß das Hochfrequenzfeld diese Welle lokal an der Stelle dessen Einwirkung auf die positive Säule hervorruft.Bei den laufenden Schichten wurde deren Resonanzfrequenz in Abhängigkeit vom Entladungsstrom und die Abhängigkeit der Wellenlänge der Schichten von der Frequenz untersucht.Es wurde festgestellt, daß der extrapolierte Wert der Wellenlänge für die Nullfrequenz erheblich niedriger ist als die Länge der stationären Schichten. Weiter wurde eine Übereinstimmung der Frequenz der laufenden Schichten in der Schichtungswelle mit der Resonanzfrequenz der künstlich hervorgerufenen laufenden Schichten festgestellt.

A contribution to the theory of X-ray monochromators

The characteristic function is introduced, describing completely the monochromating effect of monochromating units. Expressions for this function are presented for monochromating units frequently used. An example of computation for Johansson's unit shows the conditions in a special case. The curves indicating the shift of the wavelength centroid of monochromated radiation for crystals of different perfection allow conclusions to be drawn about the influence of the alignment of the crystal on precision measurements of lattice constants. The experiments verify the suggested model. The computations for a given experimental arrangement permit a simple determination of the effective breadth of the reflection curve, if a distance of two suitably chosen diffraction lines of a polycrystalline specimen is measured. Finally, it was found experimentally that a small elastic bending does not essentially alter the reflection curve of highly elastic and imperfect crystals unless macroscopic distortions are present.

On the relation between the thickness dependence of optical absorption and the surface layers of barium titanate single crystals

Single crystals of BaTiO₃, prepared by crystallization in the system BaCl₂-BaO-BaTiO₃-show a dependence of the optical absorption coefficient on the sample thickness. The observed thickness dependence of the absorption coefficient can be explained by the existence of a surface layer with optical properties differing from those of the inner part of the crystal. By means of an etching method a direct determination of the thickness of the surface layer of crystals in the thickness range of 0.075 to 0.178 mm was carried out. The value found is (6.0±0.2)×10^-4 cm.
