Generalized Stefan-Boltzmann law

Thermodynamics arguments have been employed to derive how the energy density depends on the temperatureT for a fluid whose pressurep obeys the equation of statep = ( –1), where is a constant. Three different methods, among them the one considered by Boltzmann (Carnot cycle), lead to the expression = T/( –1), where is a constant. This result also appears naturally in the framework of general relativity for spacetimes with constant spatial curvature. Some particular cases are vacuum (p = –), cosmic strings (p= –1/3), radiation (p = 1/3), and stiff matter (p = ). It is also shown that such results can be adapted for blackbody radiation inN spatial dimensions.     

Acoustomagnetoelectric current effects on mesoultrasound in anisotropic semiconductors

The acoustomagnetoelectric (AME) current effects on mesoultrasound in monopolar single-valley semiconductors with anisotropic scattering in arbitrary classical magnetic fields are computed analytically. The specimen is considered short-circuited along the q-wave vector of the ultrasound (US) wave. Two configurations are examined: 1) q is directed at an arbitrary angle 9 to the axis of highest order crystal symmetry C₆ (z axis), the y axis to the (q, C₆) plane, the magnetic field B lies in the (q, y) plane at an arbitrary angle to the vector q. Two transverse AME field components are calculated: along y and in the (q, C₆) plane. They express the Hall effects at mesoultrasound, the planar and normal, 2) q is directed along the y axis while B is in the (x, z) plane at an angle to the C₆(z) axis. The AME field component along B, the Grobner effect at mesoultrasound, is calculated. The dependence of the effects onB is studied and their estimate is given in weak and strong fields.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 7, pp. 57–61, July, 1989.     

Systematic study of muon transfer to sulphur dioxide

In a systematic study of the transfer process to sulphur dioxide, in seven different H₂ + SO₂ gas mixtures, the time spectra of the muonic sulphur X-rays yield muon transfer rates to the SO₂ molecule, deduced from the lifetimes of the p atoms, which agree all well with each other. The muonic oxygen time spectra show an additional structure as if p atoms of another kind were present. Reduced transfer rates_O are reproducible if one uses the model of ephemeral p atoms. The intensity ratios between the different kinds of p atoms are also discussed in the framework of this model and the one of black and white p atoms.

The van der Waals limit for classical systems

For a -dimensional system of particles with the two-body potentialq(r)+ ^v K(r) and density , it is proved under fairly weak conditions onq andK that the canonical pressure (, ) and chemical potential (, ) tend to definite limits when 0. The limiting functions are absolutely continuous and are given in terms of the derivative of the limiting free energy density which was found in Part I.     

Decay of the Bethe–Salpeter Kernel and Bound States for Lattice Classical Ferromagnetic Spin Systems at High Temperature

We consider lattice classical ferromagnetic spin systems at high temperature (1) with nearest neighbor interactions and even single-spin distributions (ssd). Associated with each system is an imaginary time lattice quantum field theory. It is known that there is a particle of mass m–ln in the energy-momentum spectrum. If s ⁴–3s ²²<0, where s ^k is the kth moment of the ssd, and is sufficiently small, we show that in the two-particle subspace there is no mass spectrum up to 2m. For >0 we show that the only mass spectrum in (m, 2m) is a bound state of mass m _b=2m+ln(1–)+O(), where =(+2s ²²)^–1. A bound on the decay of the kernel of a Bethe–Salpeter equation is obtained and used to prove these results.     

Structural stability properties of friedman cosmology

A dynamical system with Robertson-Walker symmetries and the equation of the statep=, 01, considered both as a conservative and nonconservative system, is studied with respect to its structural stability properties. Different cases are shown and analyzed on the phase space (x=R ^D , y=x).     

Space-and time-resolved diffusion-limited binary reaction kinetics in capillaries: experimental observation of segregation,anomalous exponents,and depletion zone

An experimental investigation of one-dimensional, diffusion-limited A+BC chemical reactions is reported. The persistence of reactant segregation and the formation of a depletion zone is observed and expressed in terms of the universal time exponents: (motion of the boundary zone), (width of instantaneous product formation zone), (rate of instantaneous local formation of product), (rate of instantaneous global formation of product), etc. There is good agreement with the recently predicted and/or simulated values:=1/2,=1/6,=2/3,=1/2, in contrast to classical predictions (=0,=1/2,=0,=–1/2). Furthermore, classically the segregation would not be preserved and there would be no formation of a depletion zone and no motion (just dissipation) of the reaction zone. We also discuss the relations to electrode oxidation-reduction reactions, i.e., A+CC where C is a catalyst, electrode, or trap.     

Structural state of Cu-Be-Ag alloys in the process of decomposition of solid solution

Investigation of aging Cu-1.5% Be-2% Ag and Cu-1% Be-4% Ag alloys was carried out in this study by the methods of x-ray analysis of monocrystals, and electron microscopy. In the aging process at 218, 300, and 450C, laminar zones of Guinier-Preston, enriched with beryllium and silver atoms were formed. Entry of silver into the zones widens the upper temperature interval of the zone stage to 450C. With the increase of annealing time the metastable-phase was precipitated. The crystals of -phase are precipitated with orientation in the direction (100) in consequence of interactions of the fields of elastic stresses occurring around -precipitations, and periodic structure is formed in the alloy. The stable phase-CuBe and Ag was precipitated in the Cu-1% Be-4% Ag-alloy.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 21–25, August, 1972.     

Large-Deviation Principle for One-Dimensional Vector Spin Models with Kac Potentials

We consider the one-dimensional planar rotator and classical Heisenberg models with a ferromagnetic Kac potential J (r)=J(yr), J with compact support. Below the Lebowitz-Penrose critical temperature the limit (mean-field) theory exhibits a phase transition with a continuum of equilibrium states, indexed by the magnetization vectors m s, s any unit vector and m the Curie–Weiss spontaneous magnetization. We prove a large-deviation principle for the associated Gibbs measures. Then we study the system in the limit 0 below the above critical temperature. We prove that the norm of the empirical spin average in blocks of order ^–1 converges to m , uniformly in intervals of order ^–p , for any p 1. We also give a lower bound to the scale on which the change of phase occurs, by showing that the empirical spin average is approximately constant on intervals having length of order ^-1-with (0,1) small enough.     

On the significance of Killing tensors

Killing vectors give the linear first integrals of the geodesic equations on Riemannian manifolds and spacetimes, while Killing tensors give the quadratic, cubic, and higher-order first integrals. Here it is shown that the Lie algebra of Killing vectors,, is extended by Killing tensors into a graded algebra,. This sheds some light on the comment by Xanthopoulos [1] on the apparent scarcity of irreducible Killing tensors. Examples are presented of the graded algebras when is abelian and when is nonabelian.     

Computational study of propagating fronts in a Lattice-gas model

Velocities and other features of propagating fronts in the lattice-gas model analyzed by Bramsonet al. are computed by Monte Carlo simulation. The propagation velocity() is found to converge slowly to its asymptotic dependence on the exchange-rate parameter. The number density of occupied sites in the interaction zone (extending from the forwardmost occupied to the rearmost unoccupied site) appears to converge to 2/3 for large. Spatial profiles of site occupancy and interface number density for finite are compared to the profiles originally computed by Fisher using the differential equation obeyed in the large- limit. Several significant features inferred from the computations have not yet been explained analytically.     

The one dimensional anderson model with off diagonal disorder: band centre anomaly

We study theE-dependence of the Lyapounov exponent <(E)> of an electron with energyE in the one dimensional Anderson model with off diagonal disorder. In the neighbourhood of the band centre we find for nonzero disorder E)>log^–1 E0 forE0, but all even moments of Re(E) diverge logarithmically. As the probability of Re (E)=0 decreases to zero forE0 we conclude that the electron is always exponentially localised.     

Global flows with invariant (Gibbs) measures for Euler and Navier-Stokes two dimensional fluids

We construct a family of probability spaces,P ), <0 associated with the Euler equation for a two dimensional inviscid incompressible fluid which carries a pointwise flow _t (time evolution) leavingP globally invariant. _t is obtained as the limit of Galerkin approximations associated with Euler equations.P is also in invariant measure for a stochastic process associated with a Navier-Stokes equation with viscosity, , stochastically perturbed by a white noise force. Dedication. After completion of this work the terrible news of the sudden death of Raphael Høgh-Krohn reached us. In deep sorrow we mourn his departure. The present work has its roots in previous inspiring work by him and we dedicate it to him as a small sign of our gratitude.     

MV and Heyting Effect Algebras

We review the fact that an MV-algebra is the same thing as a lattice-ordered effect algebra in which disjoint elements are orthogonal. An HMV-algebra is an MV-effect algebra that is also a Heyting algebra and in which the Heyting center and the effect-algebra center coincide. We show that every effect algebra with the generalized comparability property is an HMV-algebra. We prove that, for an MV-effect algebra E, the following conditions are mutually equivalent: (i) E is HMV, (ii) E has a center valued pseudocomplementation, (iii) E admits a central cover mapping such that, for all p, qE, pq=0(p)q=0.

On Poisson brackets and symplectic structures for the classical and quantum zitterbewegung

The symplectic structures (brackets, Hamilton's equations, and Lagrange's equations) for the Dirac electron and its classical model have exactly the same form. We give explicitly the Poisson brackets in the dynamical variables (x ,p ,v ,S ^v). The only difference is in the normalization of the Dirac velocities =4 which has significant consequences.Dedicated to David Hestenes, whose work profoundly connects geometry (spacetime), algebra (Clifford), and physics (electron).     

Stochastic Schrödinger operators and Jacobi matrices on the strip

We discuss stochastic Schrödinger operators and Jacobi matrices with wave functions, taking values in ^l so there are 2l Lyaponov exponents ₁..._l0 _l+1..._2l =–₁. Our results include the fact that if ₁=0 on a set positive measure, thenV is deterministic and one that says that {E|exactly 2j 's are zero} is the essential support of the a.c. spectrum of multiplicity 2j.Research partially supported by USNSF under grant DMS-8416049     

More inequalities for critical exponents

A variety of rigorous inequalities for critical exponents is proved. Most notable is the low-temperature Josephson inequalitydv +2 2–. Others are 1 1 +v, 1 1 , 1,d 1 + 1/ (for d),dv, ₃ + (for d), ₄ , and _{2m 2m+2} (form 2). The hypotheses vary; all inequalities are true for the spin-1/2 Ising model with nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic pair interactions.NSF Predoctoral Fellow (1976–1979).
