Absence of absolutely continuous spectrum of Floquet operators

The spectrum of the Floquet operator associated with time-periodic perturbations of discrete Hamiltonians is considered. If the gap between successive eigenvalues _j of the unperturbed Hamiltonian grows as _j - _j-1 j and the multiplicity of _j grows asj with >0 asj tends to infinity, then the corresponding Floquet operator possesses no absolutely continuous spectrum provided the perturbation is smooth enough.

Anti-parallel ferroelectric domains in surface space-charge layers of BaTiO3

It is shown on simplified models of a surface space-charge layer of a single crystal of BaTiO ₃ that in the surface region, in which the direction of the electric field is opposite to the direction of spontaneous polarization inside the crystal, anti-parallel domains can exist. The dimensions of these domains are determined. The use of the results obtained is proposed for interpreting the microrelief of the etch figures and for explaining the different phases of the polarization reversal process of a single-domain single crystal of BaTiO ₃.

Formation of cathode spots and current density distribution in cathode spots of short-time high-intensity electric discharge

The connection between the current density distribution in a spot and the vapour jets was found for a short-time high-intensity electric discharge by studying the structure of partial cathode traces and measuring the current density on the cathode. The variation of the current density on the spot with the current gradient was also found and the etching of the cathode surface with ionic bombardment at a pressure of 760 mm Hg was observed.

Correlation inequalities for the truncated two-point function of an Ising ferromagnet

We establish the following new correlation inequalities for the truncated twopoint function of an Ising ferromagnet in a positive external field: _j ; _l ^T _j ; _k ^T _k ; _l ^T , and _j ; _l ^T _{k K j} ; _k ^T _{k l} , whereK is any set of sites which separatesj froml. The inequalities are also valid for the pure phases with zero magnetic field at all temperatures. Above the critical temperature they reduce to known inequalities of Griffiths and Simon, respectively.NSERC Postgraduate Fellow, 1978–1981.

Unified fields of analytic space-time-energy

An analytic gravitational fieldZ (Z ^y ) is shown to include electromagnetic phenomena. In an almost flat and almost static complex geometryds ² =zdzdz of four complex variables z=t, x, y, x the field equationsR Rz = –(U U – Z ) imply the conventional equations of motion and the conventional electromagnetic field equations to first order if =(Z ^v) and =(z ) are expressed in terms of the conventional mass density function , the conventional charge density function , and a pressurep as follows: v=const=p/c ²–10^–29 gm/cm³.     

The Anisotropic Free Energy of the Solid-Liquid Phase Boundary in Al

We have performed large-scale molecular dynamics simulations of solid-liquid interfaces in aluminum, in order to calculate their interfacial stiffness and free energy. The anisotropy of these properties, though small, is key for determining the steady-state solutions for solidification in three dimensions. We find that the interfacial free energy, (), can be well represented by the form () = ₀(1 + cos 4, where measures the angle relative to the [100] interface, rotating about a [001] direction. We find values of ₀ = 120 ± 6 mJ/m² and = 1.3 ± 0.4%, in agreement with previous estimates and current experimental results.     

Baryon decays and gamma-spectroscopy of hypernuclei

The applicability of (K ^–,^–) - and (K ^–,^– N)-reactions on^13,14C and^14,15N nuclei to the study of -transitions in primary and daughter -hypernuclei is discussed. The intensity of -deexcitation of ¹³C state |S ¹²C(15·11 MeV; 1⁺1): 1/2⁺ has been shown to be comparable with the intensity of baryon decay. Isospin selection rules are used to distinguish excitation energy ranges of primary hypernuclei, where the identification of the secondary -lines is probable.Presented at the symposium Mesons and Light Nuclei, Bechyn, Czechoslovakia, May 27–June 1, 1985.     

Analytic study of power spectra of the tent maps near band-splitting transitions

Successive band-splitting transitions occur in the one-dimensional map x_i+1=g(x_i),i=0, 1, 2,... withg(x)=x, (0 x 1/2) –x +, (1/2 <x 1) as the parameter is changed from 2 to 1. The transition point fromN (=2ⁿ) bands to 2Nbands is given by=(2)^1/N (n=0, 1,2,...). The time-correlation function _i=x_ix₀/(x₀)²,x_i x_i–x_i is studied in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Frobenius-Perron operator of the map. It is shown that, near the transition point=2, _i–[(10–42)/17] _i,0-[(102-8)/51]_i,1 + [(7 + 42)/17](–1)ⁱe^–yi, where2(–2) is the damping constant and vanishes at=2, representing the critical slowing-down. This critical phenomenon is in strong contrast to the topologically invariant quantities, such as the Lyapunov exponent, which do not exhibit any anomaly at=2. The asymptotic expression for _i has been obtained by deriving an analytic form of _i for a sequence of which accumulates to 2 from the above. Near the transition point=(2)^1/N, the damping constant of _i fori N is given by _N=2(^N-2)/N. Numerical calculation is also carried out for arbitrary a and is shown to be consistent with the analytic results.     

Massive spin-two particle in a gravitational field

The spin-two particle is described by a symmetric tensorh subject to the subsidiary conditionsh = h =0. Their covariant generalization and the wave equation have been obtained directly from the Eulerian variational equations by algebraic methods only. In addition to the tensor fieldh a symmetric third-rank tensor = as well as a vector fieldA have been added, neither of which enter in the final result. The Lagrangian function is taken as a linear sum of all combinations which can be constructed from these functions, as well as terms involving the curvature tensor and its two possible contractions. Variation with respect toh , andA independently gives the Euler equations. Combining the various trace equations and choice of arbitrary constants yields the subsidiary conditions, while the Euler equations themselves give the connection between the auxiliary functions and the tensorh as well as the generalization of the wave equationD D h + 2R h -R h -R h +g R h +Rh =m ² h Finally, variation with respect tog yields the energy-momentum tensor.     

Grassmann-Cartan algebra and Klein-Gordon equations

Given a Riemannian structure (M, g), a hypothesis is investigated that if= _p=0 ⁿ _p (M) is submitted to the differential condition (g++)=0, =mc/—which implies that each component of fulfills the Klein-Gordon equation (- ²) _p =0, ought to be interpreted as a natural complex of the bosonic fields. Then it is found that the complex admits the interpretation in the sense of first quantization with (M) being a convex set of states, with the structure of a Hilbert space over . The definite spin states of bosons are then pure states which are not conserved by the temporal evolution.     

Manifestation of Extracoordination in the Resonance Raman Spectra of Water‐Soluble Cation Co‐Porphyrins

Resonance Raman spectra (RRS) of Co(II) and Co(III)5,10,15,20tetrakis(4Nmethylpyridinium)porphyrin ((Co^II(TmpyP4), and Co^III(TMPyP4)) in aqueous solutions at different pH as well as in organic solvents (methanol, ethanol, DMSO, DMF) are obtained. The increased sensitivity of the oscillation frequencies ₂, ₄, ₈, and ₆ — the markers of the oxidation state of a metal — to the nature of an axial ligand has been revealed. For Co^III(TmpyP4), the shifts of the indicated frequencies in extracoordination have turned out to be twofold larger than those for Co^II(TmpyP4). The spectral effects observed are related to different electron influence of the extraligands on the system of the porphyrin ring. In the case of Co(III)porphyrin, interaction of the d orbitals of the metal and the e _g ^*orbitals of the macrocycle is more efficient since its ionic radius is smaller than for the Co(II)complex. For Co^III(TmpyP4), a linear correlation between the oscillation frequencies ₂, ₄, ₈, and ₆ and the experimental Gutmann parameters characterizing the electronacceptor properties of solvents is found.     

Dispersion of the permittivity of high-resistance semiconductors

We consider the mechanism of macroscopic polarization of semiconducting plates owing to the interaction of free carriers with an impurity level, in which role the level of the residual impurity of compensated semiconductors may appear. This mechanism, in combination with the diffusion-drift mechanism of polarization, results in additional dispersion of the real () and imaginary () parts of the dielectric permittivity, this being particularly significant for semiconductors of thickness smaller than the screening length L_s of free carriers. The character of the behavior of and depends on the relation between the Maxwell relation time _M and the times of carrier capture: _c and ejection _e by an impurity center. For _cetm and (/L_s) _e/_c1 the dispersion of and is the same as for thick plates (/L_s1). For _{c m e} and (/L_s)_e/_c1 the () curve has a characteristic kink in the region 1/_e, indicating additional absorption associated with the ejection of carriers into the surface region.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 11–13, October, 1981.

The inelastic reactions πp→λ(⌆) K with allowance for the contribution of branch cuts

The method of complex angular moments is used to analyze the experimental data on the inelastic reactions p ()K, taking into account branch cuts in the j-plane in the eikonal approximation. An optical model for the backward scattering is considered. Agreement with experiment is obtained in the region of small angles for the reactions (⁰)K⁰. In the case of ^–P K⁰(^–K⁺) processes, agreement is obtained with the experimental results for large (180) scattering angles.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 8, pp. 26–30, August, 1972.
