Self-diffusion of V-48 in the FeV σ-phase and in an Fe-47 wt.% V solid solution

Self-diffusion coefficients of vanadium in the FeV -phase and in the corresponding -solid solution (Fe-47 wt.% V) measured in the temperature ranges 1002–1115 °C (-phase) and 1230–1320 °C are reported. The found results differ fundamentally and significantly from the relations in ordered and disordered solid solutions [9]. The diffusivity in -phase at the transition temperature (T _/=1200 °C) is cca 14 times lower than the diffusivity in the b.c.c. solid solution, the chemical composition of which is the same. The lowering is caused by the different values of frequency factors,D _O=0.11 cm²/s andD _O=45 cm²/s. The effect of the corresponding activation enthalpiesH =252 kJ/mole andH =293 kJ/mole is small and quite opposite. The occurence of higher activation enthalpyH in the -solid solution at temperaturesT>T _/ may be attributed to a certain amount of the f.c.c. phase coexisting in the b.c.c. matrix at concentrationsc _v>27 wt.% at sufficiently high temperatures [7]. A comparison of vanadium self-diffusion characteristics measured in the -phase to the extrapolated values obtained on the basis of the previous measurements [1] in the Fe-V primary solid solutions ₁ shows that the diffusivity ratioD ₁/D (1473 K)=33 and that the activation enthalpyH is by about 3% higher than the valuesH ₁ (eq. (5)) measured in the uniphase b.c.c. solid solutions.     

On the electroluminescence of powdered zinc sulphide layers

The experimental study of the dependence of the electroluminescence brightness on the voltage confirms the correctness of the mechanism of electroluminescence, based on impact ionization in parts of the crystal where the electric field is concentrated. A study of the photoluminescent and electroluminescent spectra of phosphors containing two activators (copper and an element of rare earth) permits the determination of the magnitude of the volume of the crystal in which electroluminescence occurs. A study of the influence of the stored light sum on the brightness of electroluminescence and a study of the rate of growth of the variable and constant components of electroluminescence point to the fact that the excitation is transferred from the region of field concentration to the whole volume of the crystal.

On the electroluminescence of ZnS at low voltages

The possibility of explaining non-zero electroluminescence brightness below the minimum ionization voltage by the influence of thermal velocities of electrons is pointed out; the derived voltage dependence of electroluminescence brightness agrees with the measurements in [1].

Plasma oscillations and dynamical friction

The forceF of mutual interaction of two species of charged particles in relative motion with velocityU is, forU higher than the mean thermal velocities of particles, a decreasing function ofU. This property ofF(U) can give rise to the excitation of electrostatic oscillations.

Hard gamma radiation in the decay of Lu176m

Gamma lines 1·05 MeV(4 × 10^–6 quanta/decay) and 1·14 MeV (9 × 10^–6 quanta/decay), giving evidence of the existence of a new level in Hf¹⁷⁶ with an energy of 1·14 MeV, were found in the decay of Lu^176m with a half-life of 3·7 hours, using the scintillation method. The component of the beta spectrum, exciting this level, has a maximum energy of 0·17 MeV and logft=8·3. The spin of this level proved to be equal to one. The level was interpreted as a single-particle neutron level withn ₀: 5/2^– (512),n ₁: 7/2^– (514);I=1⁺.

Summation formulae in the theory of thin films

On the basis of general summation formulae for light reflected and transmitted by a thin film the author derives formulae for a thin dielectric film, for a thin metallic film and for a system of thin dielectric films. This solution is based on Stokes's principle of reversibility, which is the idea unifying the cases into one theory. In conclusion he gives the solution of a general case, dealing with light reflected and transmitted by a system of thin dielectric and metallic films.

The scattering of waves by a periodic surface

The paper derives a general formula for the scattering of electromagnetic (or sound) waves from a periodic, perfectly conducting (or perfectly rigid) surface. No restrictions are imposed on the angle of incidence, the size of the surface or the degree of roughness. Except for the basic Kirchhoff approximation, the method is exact. The results confirm, generalise or correct special cases obtained by more complicated methods.

The use of the repulsive potential in the quantum theory of solids

A new method is proposed for calculating the energy in certain special points of the Brillouin zone. The wave functions of valence and conduction electrons are given in the form of the linear combination of plane waves and the orthogonality condition of these functions to the wave functions of lower states is replaced by the repulsive potential. The practical application of this very simple method is illustrated on the energy spectrum of silicon in the centre of the Brillouin zone. It is proved that the results are comparable with some other methods, e. g. the orthogonalized plane-wave method.

Theory of moving striations in plasma of D-C discharge I. Basic equation and its general solution

As a base for the theory of moving striations a partial integro-differential equation (26) is derived from the equations of continuity (1), (2), the Laplace-Poisson equation (3) and relation (4) between the electric field and the temperature of the electrons. Apart from the processes necessary for the actual formation of striations according to [1] and for the amplification of the wave of stratification according to [2], the equation also includes the processes defining the Debye length of the electrons, the influence of the axial electric field and of its local deflections on the motion of current carriers and the direct influence of the deviations in concentration of the electrons on the rate of production of current carriers. In deriving the equation the main attention is paid to the physical sense of the mathematical operations applied. The general solution is found by the method of the two-sided Laplace transformation and is described by triple integral convolution (42).

Two-barrier detector

The paper describes the principle of a detector with two opposite surface barriers and the experimental verification of its functioning. The detector permits double the effective depth to be attained on the material with a given bias voltage. The principle of opposite barriers also permits a reduction in the system of dE/dx andE detectors to one detector.

Die Abhängigkeit der Banddurchbiegung von der Lage der Stufenversetzung

Zusammenfassung Es wird die Lösung des Spanungszustandes im unendlichen Band mit einer lotrecht zur Bandebene stehenden Stufenversetzung und mit einem Burgerschen Vektor, der parallel mit der Bandachse verläuft, unter der Voraussetzung der klassischen mathematischen Elastizitätstheorie wiedergegeben. Weiter wird der Ausdruck für die Gesamtdurchbiegung des Bandes in Abhängigkeit von der Lage der Versetzung und für die Durchbiegung bei einer allgemeinen Verteilung der Versetzungen, die durch eine kontinuierliche Verteilung approximiert ist, abgeleitet.

Photon scattering on quasi-free neutrons in the reaction γd→γ′np and neutron polarizabilities

The possibility to obtain information on n scattering at intermediate energies from the reaction dnp is analyzed. To this aim, the differential cross sectiond ³ /d ,d _n dE _n and the scattering asymmetry with linearly polarized photons are calculated at photon energies 100 to 400 MeV in the diagrammatic approach. The pole diagrams of the impulse approximation are evaluated with realistic n and p scattering amplitudes. One-loop diagrams withnp rescattering in the final state and with meson-exchange and isobar currents are taken into account as well. The main contribution to the differential cross sectiond ³ /d ,d _n dE _n in the kinematics of quasi-free n scattering arises from the neutron pole diagram. The correction due to other diagrams is typically –30% to –10% and decreases with increasing photon energy and momentum transfer. The sensitivity of the cross sections to the magnitude of the neutron electric polarizability and to the sign of the ⁰2 decay constant is demonstrated.

Domain configurations of the uniaxial infinite cylinder

Models for the possible domain configurations of a uniaxial infinite cylinder are put forward and their theory is developed. For materials having an easy plane and no hexagonal anisotropy either closed flux or helical magnetization configurations are proposed. For non-vanishing hexagonal anisotropy these models are somewhat modified to the partially closed flux configuration and the disc domain structure.
