Duality-invariant orthogonality relation between the magnetic monopole and associated quark charges

Duality invariance of the Dirac-Schwinger charge-symmetric theory for electromagnetism leads one to consider the complex-valued amplitudes ₁ and ₂ for the separation between the magnetic monopole and quarks in the logarithmic charge plane. It is observed that the orthogonality relation on the latter amplitudes, Re( ₁ ^* ₂)=0, is equivalent to the equation (ln 9 ^–1)(ln 2)=(1/2) ², which is indeed satisfied by the experimental value fora to within 0.027%. In addition to fixing the unit of electric charge at a primary physical value, the orientation of ₁, ₂ may also prescribe the Cabibbo angle to have the theoretical value 12.4438.     

Maximum uniform deformation in tension

An equation is derived for the hyperbola which touches the true stress curve S =f(), where is the contraction of the specimen at the point _p (uniform contraction), S_B (true ultimate strength). With a flat maximum of the tensile force, this hyperbola coincides with the true stress curve at a part corresponding to extension by the maximum force. The use of the tangent hyperbola for determining _p and S_B is demonstrated.It is found that for those metals and alloys which are at present known to have a convex true stress curve in the uniform plasticity range, the uniform contraction _p cannot exceed 0.5, corresponding to a uniform elongation _p 1, while the true (logarithmic) uniform elongation _p 0.693. The limiting values of the hardening modulus and of the ratio S_B/_B are also found.     

Percolation of level sets for two-dimensional random fields with lattice symmetry

Let (x),x², be a random field, which may be viewed as the potential of an incompressible flow for which the trajectories follow the level lines of . Percolation methods are used to analyze the sizes of the connected components of level sets {x:(x)=h} and sets {x:(x)h} in several classes of random fields with lattice symmetry. In typical cases there is a sharp transition at a critical value ofh from exponential boundedness for such components to the existence of an unbounded component. In some examples, however, there is a nondegenerate interval of values ofh where components are bounded but not exponentially so, and in other cases each level set may be a single infinite line which visits every region of the lattice.     

Power law growth for the resistance in the Fibonacci model

Many one-dimensional quasiperiodic systems based on the Fibonacci rule, such as the tight-binding HamiltonianH(n)=(n+1)+(n–1)+v(n) (n),n,l ²(),, wherev(n)=[(n+1)]–[n],[x] denoting the integer part ofx and the golden mean , give rise to the same recursion relation for the transfer matrices. It is proved that the wave functions and the norm of transfer matrices are polynomially bounded (critical regime) if and only if the energy is in the spectrum of the Hamiltonian. This solves a conjecture of Kohmoto and Sutherland on the power-law growth of the resistance in a one-dimensional quasicrystal.     

Exponential decay near resonance,without analyticity

We consider a quantum mechanical model which displays the behaviour associated with having a resonance or metastable state. The Hamiltonian depends on a parameter . When =0, there is an eigenstate ₀; when 0, ₀ dissolves into the continuous spectrum, showing approximate exponential decay. We prove this result without using dilatation analyticity. The model describes a two-state atom coupled to the quantized radiation field. The state space of the field is truncated, so that only the vacuum and one-photon states are included.This work was partially supported by NSF Grant DMS-8922941     

First experiment to test whether space-time is flat. II. Effects of orbit

The gyroscope in an orbiting satellite will be acted on by additional gravitational fields due to the rotation of the earth and due to the orbital velocity of the satellite. According to special relativistic gravitational theory, we deduce _L ^(S) —the gyroscope's precession rate due to the orbital velocity—and _S ^(S) —the gyroscope's precession rate due to the earth's rotation in the polar orbit case. The results are _L ^(S) = (2/3) _L ^(G) , _S ^(S) = (3/2) cos (1 - sin² cos²)^1/2 _S ^(G) , where and are the gyroscope's polar angles, and _L ^(G) and _S ^(G) are the geodetic and frame-dragging precession rates predicted by general relativity, respectively.     

Entropy,the central limit theorem and the algebra of the canonical commutation relation

The central limit theorem of Cushen and Hudson is reformulated on the algebra of the CCR. Namely, for a gauge invariant state , the weighted convolutions _n of the central limit tend to the quasi-free reduction _Q of pointwise. It is proved that if the initial relative entropy S(, _Q ) is finite, then S( _n , _Q ) goes to 0 and so _n – _Q 0. No restriction on the dimension of the test function space is made.     

Classical theory of the interaction between a spinor field and the gravitational field: First-order field equations

The classical theory of the interaction of a neutral spin-1/2 Dirac field and the gravitational field is studied. For the purely gravitational part of the Lagrangian, written in terms of a vierbein and the local connection coefficient _ab , (regarded as independent field variables), the usual first-order form is adopted. For the Dirac part, however, a different choice is made, in which the covariant derivative of is built with the aid of the vierbein instead of with _ab . This still yields a first-order formalism, but one in which _ab is related to the vierbein in the same way as it would be in the absence of. This ensures that the global connection remains symmetric in andv in the presence of. The way in which the vierbein field equation leads to a familiar Einstein equation with a symmetric and conserved stress tensor on its right side is also analyzed.     

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.

Geometrical interpretation of the bilinear equations for the KP hierarchy

The Grassmann manifold approach to the KP hierarchy, in the spirit of Segal and Wilson, is used to define the wavefunction _W and its adjoint _W. From the fact that _W and _W are the orthogonal, we derive the bilinear equations. The modified equations are treated at the same time.     

A new geometrical gravitational theory

A geometrical gravitational theory based on the connection ={ } + ln + ln –g ln is developed. The field equations for the new theory are uniquely determined apart from one unknown dimensionless parameter ₂. The geometry on which our theory is based is an extension of the Weyl geometry, and by the extension the gravitational coupling constant and the gravitational mass are made to be dynamical and geometrical. The fundamental geometrical objects in the theory are a metricg and two gauge scalars and. Physically the gravitational potential corresponds tog in the same way as in general relativity, the gravitational coupling constant to ^–2, and the gravitational mass tou(, ), which is a coscalar of power –1 algebraically made of and. The theory satisfies the weak equivalence principle, but breaks the strong one generally. We shall find outu(, )= on the assumption that the strong one keeps holding good at least for bosons of low spins. Thus we have the simple correspondence between the geometrical objects and the gravitational objects. Since the theory satisfies the weak one, the inertial mass is also dynamical and geometrical in the same way as is the gravitational mass. Moreover, the cosmological term in the theory is a coscalar of power –4 algebraically made of andu(, ), so it is dynamical, too. Finally we give spherically symmetric exact solutions. The permissible range of the unknown parameter ₂ is experimentally determined by applying the solutions to the solar system.     

Photo-luminescence and growth defects in ZnS: Cu monocrystals

The paper describes microscopic investigation into the spectral distribution of photo-luminescence and its polarization on hexagonal ZnS monocrystals in relation to the structural defects of such crystals. These observations, as well as birefringent observations, show that the values of the birefringence and the degree of polarization in different stripes of the same crystal are the same within the limits of observational errors.

On the extreme relativistic limit of arbitrary spin wave equations

The extreme relativistic limit (E-representation) of the wave equation in the Schrödinger formi/t =H describing particles and anti-particles of spin s and non-zero rest mass m is presented here. As the wave function has just the minimum number of 2(2s+1) components, the necessity of avoiding redundant components by auxiliary conditions does not arise. Relevant expressions are given for the infinitesimal generators of the Poincaré group and for the operators representing the observables in this representation.

On the Hamiltonian interpolation of near-to-the identity symplectic mappings with application to symplectic integration algorithms

We reconsider the problem of the Hamiltonian interpolation of symplectic mappings. Following Moser's scheme, we prove that for any mapping , analytic and -close to the identity, there exists an analytic autonomous Hamiltonian system, H such that its time-one mapping _H differs from by a quantity exponentially small in 1/. This result is applied, in particular, to the problem of numerical integration of Hamiltonian systems by symplectic algorithms; it turns out that, when using an analytic symplectic algorithm of orders to integrate a Hamiltonian systemK, one actually follows exactly, namely within the computer roundoff error, the trajectories of the interpolating Hamiltonian H, or equivalently of the rescaled Hamiltonian K=^-1H, which differs fromK, but turns out to be ⁵ close to it. Special attention is devoted to numerical integration for scattering problems.     

Generalized Bargmann potentials

Conditions are found for the coefficient functions of a linear ordinary differential equation of the kth order ^(k)+u₁^(k-2)+...+u_k-1=^k, when its solution has the following analytical dependence on the parameter: =exp(z _i=1 ⁿ (+a_i)(a_ja_j(Z)). The problem is closely related to the finding of n-soliton solutions of the simplest form for the periodic Toda system, corresponding to A _nand C _nseries.     

Die Integralbeziehungen bei der stationären laminaren Strömung mit geschlossenen Stromlinien in annähernd kreisförmigen Gebieten

Zusammenfassung Für die statioäre lineare ebene Strömung mit geschlossenen Stromlinien bei einer großen Reynoldsschen Zahl in annähernd kreisförmigen Gebieten werden zwei Integralbeziehungen (5) und (9) abgeleitet. Nach der ersten von diesen ist das Integral der Reibungskraft entlang der Grenze des Strömungsgebiets direkt proportional der Länge dieser Grenze und der Größe der Rotation der Geschwindigkeit im Kern der Strömung. Aus der zweiten Beziehung geht hervor: Das Volumen der in der Zeiteinheit den Schnitt der Rezirkulationsgrenzschicht durchfließenden Flüssigkeit ist direkt proportional dem Integral entlang der Gebietsgrenze aus der Differenz der Quadrate der Strömungsgeschwindigkeit an der Grenze des Kerns und der Geschwindigkeit an der Gebietsgrenze und umgekehrt proportional der Größe der Geschwindigkeitsrotation im Kern und der Länge der Gebietsgrenze.

Light absorption by free semiconductor carriers in the presence of a laser wave

Within the framework of the conditions ; » ^–1 ( ^–1 is the mean time of momentum relaxation), the coefficient of absorption () of a weak electromagnetic wave by the free carriers of a polar semiconductor is calculated in the presence of a strong wave (of frequency ), for arbitrary values of and . Photon absorption by band electrons is due to these latter interacting with optical phonons (of frequency _o). The problem is solved by using an analogous approach to the theory of the linear Kubo reaction. The results are valid in the absence of electron heating, when a strong wave only influences the scattering probability. The appearance of a photostimulated tail of absorption is predicted for < _o, including the jump () for ( – _o + ) ₀T as well as peaks in the function () at the points _s=s (s=1, 2, 3,...). The value (₁) is determined by the formula for the absorption coefficient for one strong wave.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 7, pp. 105–109, July, 1981.The authors are grateful to É.
