The electron’s self photon

Equations of motion (EOM’s) are presented for the electron and photon. The electron EOM is the same as Dirac’s equation with mass interpreted to be totally electromagnetic in nature. The photon EOM is considered here to be the EOM for the electron’s self photon. The electron EOM and photon EOM together are presented as a single theory of the electron which is distinct from QED, in which separate matter and light theories are used for the electron and photon respectively.A temporarily bound state is found for the point proton-electron-self-photon three-body combination which possibly represents a neutronic state. In support of this surmise the theory is used to calculate the neutronic state-proton mass difference, the lifetime of the neutronic state against electron emission, and the neutronic state’s magnetic moment. This interpretation of the neutronic state suggests that the self photon and the neutrino share the same EOM and are possibly the same particle.     

几百兆电子伏特/核子能区原子核诱发乳胶核反应靶核蒸发碎片前后发射研究（英文）

对150 AMeV 4He-AgBr,290 AMeV 12C-AgBr,400 AMeV 12C-AgBr,400 AMeV 20Ne-AgBr及500 AMeV 56Fe-AgBr作用靶核蒸发碎片在反应前后半球内的多重数分布、多重数矩、标度方差、熵及约化熵分别进行了分析。实验结果表明,靶核蒸发碎片在前后半球内的多重数分布可以用高斯分布来描述。在前后半球内的多重数分布矩分别随秩数的增加而增加,且前后半球内多重数分布二阶矩与反应类型及束流能量无关。对于所有研究的核反应,其标度方差（一个直接描述多重数涨落的变量）值接近于1,表明在前后半球内靶核蒸发的发射存在较弱的关联。在前后半球内靶核蒸发碎片发射过程中的熵及约化熵在实验误差范围内与反应系统无关。The multiplicity distribution,multiplicity moment,scaled variance,entropy and reduced entropy of target evaporated fragments emitted in forward and backward hemispheres in 150 AMeV 4He-AgBr,290 AMeV 12C-AgBr,400 AMeV 12C-AgBr,400 AMeV 20Ne-AgBr and 500 AMeV 56Fe-AgBr interactions are investigated.It is found that the multiplicity distribution of target evaporated fragments emitted in both forward and backward hemispheres can be fitted by a Gaussian distribution.The multiplicity moments of target evaporated particles emitted in the forward and backward hemispheres increase with the order of the moment q,and the second-order multiplicity moment is energy independent over the entire energy range for all the interactions in the forward and backward hemisphere.The scaled variance,a direct measure of multiplicity fluctuations,is close to one for all the interactions,which indicate a weak correlation among the target evaporated fragments.The entropy of target evaporated fragments emitted in forward and backward hemispheres are the same respectively for all of the interactions,within experimental errors.     

Angular divergence of forwards and backwards emission from an FIR laser,using a pyroelectric vidicon

The angular divergence of FIR radiation at 66 μm and 116 μm from a D₂O cell pumped by single mode pulsed CO₂ laser is obtained, in both forward and backward directions. The forward emission, in similarity with SRS at other wavelengths, emerges with divergence close to the diffraction limit in some cases. The backward emission, probably dominated by ASE, has a greater divergence and at high filling pressures appears to break up into speckles.     

Pronounced Fluctuations of Target Fragments in Forward Hemisphere Only in Ultra Relativistic Nuclear Collision

Dynamical fluctuation of target evaporated black particles is investigated in both forward and backward hemispheres within the framework of multi-dimensional factorial moment methodology using the brilliant concept of the Hurst exponent. We analyse the black particles emitted in ^32S-AgBr interactions at 200AGeV and it is evident that the dynamical fluctuation in the backward hemisphere is self-affine. In the forward hemisphere, dynamical fluctuation is self-similar but not self-affine. However, study indicates that the fluctuation in the forward hemisphere is more pronounced than that in backward hemisphere.     

Origin of complex fragments from32S+natAg reaction at 37.5 A·MeV

Fragment emission from collisions of³²S with^natAg at 37.5 A·MeV has been studied with the 4π multi-detector AMPHORA. Production of intermediate mass and heavy fragments as well as of light charged particles has been measured. The total charged particle multiplicity and polar angular distributions have been used to select various classes of collisions. Analysis of angular and energy distributions of fragments and light particles in central collisions indicates the formation of a hot source (excitation energy of≈4.4 A·MeV) with an additional contribution from a preequilibrium process at more forward angles. Azimuthal angle correlations of He-Li, Li-Li, B-B, and C-C pairs have been used as a tool to study the origin of complex fragments. Data at backward angles are well described by considering a thermalized emitter with an angular momentum around 70? and a fragment emission time of the order of 200 fm/c. A microscopic approach of BNV type confirms these emission times and angular momenta indicating the persistence of an incomplete fusion process responsible for the emission of complex fragments at backward angles.

Dynamical fluctuations in fragmentation reactions in a Boltzmann–Langevin approach

Based on the isospin-dependent Boltzmann–Langevin model, the dynamical fluctuations in the fragmentation reaction of ¹¹²Sn+¹¹²Sn are investigated. The quadrupole moment and octupole moment with zero magnetic quantum number have large fluctuations in the early time of the collisions. The dynamical fluctuations in momentum space show a strong dependence on the incident energy. The effects of using different fluctuations on the fragment cross sections are also studied in the fragmentation reactions. The results by using Q₂₀ + Q₃₀ fluctuation have a better agreement with the experimental data. Calculations using Q₂₀ + Q₃₀ fluctuation produce more proton-rich and neutron-rich nuclei than those using Q₂₀ fluctuation only. Besides, the difference between the production cross sections of fragments calculated by using Q₂₀ and Q₂₀ + Q₃₀ fluctuations is larger in the vicinity of the projectile. These results present that the dynamical fluctuations may affect the whole dynamical process of fragmentation reactions including the production of fragments, due to the nonlinear nature of the Boltzmann–Langevin equation.     

400 AMeV 12C诱发乳胶核反应重电离粒子前后关联研究

对400 AMeV 12C诱发乳胶核反应重电离粒子的前后关联进行了研究。重电离粒子来源于靶核碎片,分为灰径迹粒子和黑径迹粒子两种。实验结果很好地验证了核-核碰撞几何模型。灰径迹粒子的发射在前、后半球是各向异性的,而黑径迹粒子的发射基本是一致的。向前、向后发射的灰径迹粒子、黑径迹粒子平均多重数对重电离粒子数n_h呈线性依赖,黑径迹粒子、灰径迹粒子的向前发射随n_h的增加而增加的幅度分别大于其向后发射随n_h的增加而增加的幅度,但核内级联效应受靶核大小的影响,向后半球内发射的灰径迹粒子平均多重数随n_h的增加有饱和现象,这些多重数关联特性基本上可以利用基于碰撞几何的旁观体-反应体模型及级联蒸发模型来解释。The forward-backward multiplicity correlation of heavily ionized particles produced in 12C-emulsion interactions at 400 AMeV is investigated. The heavy ionized particles, come from the target fragments, are divided into grey track particle and black track particle. The experimental results can be well explained by the geometry model of the nucleus-nucleus collisions. The emission of grey track particles in forward and backward hemisphere is not isotropic, but the emission of black track particle is almost isotropic. The averaged multiplicity of grey track particles and black track particles in forward and backward hemisphere linearly depend on the number of heavily ionized particle n_h, the correlation strength in forward hemisphere is greater than that in backward hemisphere, but the dependence of grey track particle in backward hemisphere on the number of heavily ionized particle n_h shows the saturation because of the intranuclar cascade effect is influenced by target size. The characteristics of multiplicity correlations can be well explained by the participant-spectator model based on the colliding geometrical picture and the cascade evaporation model of high energy nucleus-nucleus collisions.     

Pecularities in produced-particle emission in <Superscript>208</Superscript>Pb+ Ag(Br) interactions at 158 <Emphasis Type="Italic">A</Emphasis> GeV/<Emphasis Type="Italic">c</Emphasis>

The angular structures of particles produced in ²⁰⁸Pb-induced collisions with Ag(Br) nuclei in an emulsion detector at 158 A GeV/c have been investigated. Nonstatistical ringlike substructures in the azimuthal plane of the collision have been found and their parameters have been determined. An indication of the formation of ringlike substructures from two symmetrical emission cones, one in the forward and the other in the backward direction in the center-of-mass system, has been obtained. The ringlike substructures’ parameters have been determined. The experimental results are in an agreement with I.M. Dremin’s idea that the mechanism of the ringlike substructures’ formation in nuclear collisions is similar to that of Cherenkov electromagnetic radiation. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Multiplicity characteristics in relativistic 24Mg-nucleus collisions

This work is concerned with the analyses of the shower and gray particle production in 4.5 A GeV/c ²⁴Mg collision with emulsion nuclei. The highest particle production occurs in the region of the low impact parameters. While the multiplicity of the shower particles emitted in the forward direction depends on the projectile mass number and energy, the multiplicity of the backward ones shows a limiting behaviour. The source of the emission of the forward shower particles is completely different from that of the backward ones. The target fragments are produced in a thermalized system of emission.     

Forward and backward electron emission cross-sections for 23 MeVu<Superscript>-1</Superscript> C,Ni and Au projectiles traversing C,Al , Ni,Ag , Au and Bi foils

A rather complete experimental study of forward and backward electron velocity spectra from thin foils bombarded with ions at constant velocity of 30 atomic units (23MeV u^-1) was performed. Three different beams ( ¹²C³⁺ , ⁵⁸Ni¹⁴⁺ and ¹⁹⁷Au³⁶⁺ and six different targets ( ¹²C , ²⁷Al , ^natNi , ^natAg , ¹⁹⁷Au and ²⁰⁹Bi of approximately 90μg cm^-2 thickness were used. This procedure allowed to study the evolution of electron emission (velocity and angular distributions) for the [projectile; target] matrix [ C , Ni , Au ; C , Al , Ni , Ag , Au , Bi ] in a wide angular range. The projectile and target dependence of absolute cross-sections for binary encounter-, Auger- and backward-emitted electrons are analyzed.     

Forward–backward emission of target evaporated fragments in high energy nucleus–nucleus collisions

The multiplicity distribution, multiplicity moment, scaled variance, entropy and reduced entropy of target evaporated fragments emitted in forward and backward hemispheres in 12 A Ge V4 He, 3.7 A Ge V16 O,60 A Ge V16 O, 1.7 A Ge V84 Kr and 10.7 A Ge V197Au-induced emulsion heavy target(Ag Br) interactions are investigated. It is found that the multiplicity distribution of target evaporated fragments emitted in both forward and backward hemispheres can be fitted by a Gaussian distribution. The multiplicity moments of target evaporated particles emitted in the forward and backward hemispheres increase with the order of the moment q, and the secondorder multiplicity moment is energy independent over the entire energy range for all the interactions in the forward and backward hemisphere. The scaled variance, a direct measure of multiplicity fluctuations, is close to one for all the interactions, which indicate a correlation among the produced particles. The entropy of target evaporated fragments emitted in both forward and backward hemispheres are the same within experimental errors.     

Pion emission in α-particle interactions with various targets of nuclear emulsion detector

The behavior of relativistic hadron multiplicity for4He-nucleus interactions is investigated. The experiment is carried out at 2.1 A and 3.7 A Ge V(Dubna energy) to search for the incident energy effect on the interactions inside different emulsion target nuclei. Data are presented in terms of the number of emitted relativistic hadrons in both forward and backward angular zones. The dependence on the target size is presented. For this purpose the statistical events are discriminated into groups according to the interactions with H, CNO, Em, and Ag Br target nuclei. The separation of events, into the mentioned groups, is executed based on Glauber's multiple scattering theory approach. Features suggestive of a decay mechanism seem to be a characteristic of the backward emission of relativistic hadrons. The results strongly support the assumption that the relativistic hadrons may already be emitted during the de-excitation of the excited target nucleus, in a behavior like that of compound-nucleus disintegration.Regarding the limiting fragmentation hypothesis beyond 1 A Ge V, the target size is the main parameter affecting the backward production of the relativistic hadron. The incident energy is a principal factor responsible for the forward relativistic hadron production, implying that this system of particle production is a creation system. However, the target size is an effective parameter as well as the projectile size considering the geometrical concept regarded in the nuclear fireball model. The data are analyzed in the framework of the FRITIOF model.

Pion and proton production in forward and backward hemisphere in C-emulsion interaction at 4.5 GeV/c per nucleon

The paper presents an in-depth study on the forward and backward multiplicity correlations in case of pions and protons (from the target) based on the experimental data on ¹²C-emulsion interaction at 4.5 GeV/c per nucleon. The cumulative distribution of their emission angles in the backward hemisphere is presented. The asymmetry parameter (A) and the forward-backward ratio (F/B) as a function of the number of heavy particles (n_h) is also shown. The results reveal many interesting characteristics regarding the backward particle production.     

Direct four-photon excitation of amplified spontaneous emission in a nonlinear organic chromophore

We report four-photon pumped amplified spontaneous emission in an organic chromophore. The phenomenon is observed when intense infrared laser radiation illuminates a nonlinear chromophore solution. As a result of this illumination, a strong and highly directional radiation in the visible wavelength range is generated in both the forward and the backward directions, with an angular divergence similar to that of the pump beam.     

Classical and quantum self amplified spontaneous emission in a high gain free electron laser

We describe the quantum theory and the photon statistics of self amplified spontaneous emission (SASE) in a high gain free electron laser (FEL) using Glauber's quantum theory of coherence. We generalize a previous theory by taking into account many-mode effects and the initiation process resulting from classical shot noise, quantum noise, an injected coherent field and coherent bunching. In particular, we define the concept of quantum SASE which is appropriate when the initial quantum fluctuations dominate over the classical shot noise. We also discuss the conditions for the observation. Quantum SASE is a new quantum phenomenon in which the single electron uncertainty fluctuations of the conjugate variables position and momentum produce exponential amplification of the vacuum field.     

Angular momentum transfer and spin dealignment mechanisms in damped nuclear reactions Ar+Bi and Ni+Pb

The angular momentum transferred to fragment spins has been studied in the damped nuclear reactions Ar+Bi at 255 MeV and 295 MeV and Ni+Pb at 435 MeV from measurement of the angular distribution of the fission fragments of the heavy-recoil nucleus in coincidence with the projectile-like fragment. The heavy-fragment spin is strongly aligned along the normal to the reaction plane and the rigid-rotation limit of the dinuclear system is attained. The dealignment mechanisms produce spin components mainly located in a plane approximately perpendicular to the heavy-recoil lab direction. They are well described by a dynamical model based on the nucleon exchange between the two ions during the collision. The spin-component fluctuations reach high values. In the heavy-recoil direction, these fluctuations are increasing with the total kinetic energy loss and the charge transfer from the projectile to the target. The spin values extracted from both the angular distributions and the fission probabilities are seen to be compatible.     

O~(2+)离子穿过碳膜引起的前后表面电子发射

测量了入射能为1.9~11.3 keV/u的O~(2+)离子穿过碳膜诱导的前向、后向(分别对应出射表面和入射表面)电子发射产额。实验中,通过改变入射离子的能量和流强,系统地研究了电子能损和离子束流强度对前向、后向电子发射产额的影响。结果表明,在本实验的能量范围内,前向、后向电子发射产额与对应表面的电子能损有近似的正比关系,而与束流强度无关。分析还发现引起后向电子发射的动能阈值约为0.2 keV/u,势能电子发射产额约为1 e~-/ion。     

Anisotropic emission of interface fluctuation quantum dots

We calculate energy levels, dipole moments and radiative broadening of interface fluctuation quantum dots. For optically allowed states, the dipole moment grows proportionally to the lateral quantum dot radius while the radiative broadening saturates towards the quantum well radiative broadening for large lateral quantum dot radii. This is accompanied by a change in the angular emission pattern, concentrating emission in forward and backward direction. Optically forbidden states do not couple to light propagating in the growth direction yet they may have a considerable radiative broadening due to spontaneous emission in other directions.
