Integrable hierarchy underlying topological Landau-Ginzburg models of D-type

A universal integrable hierarchy underlying topological Landau-Ginzburg models of D-type is presented. Like the dispersionless Toda hierarchy, the new hierarchy has two distinct (positive and negative) sets of flows. Special solutions corresponding to topological Landau-Ginzburg models of D-type are characterized by a Riemann-Hilbert problem, which can be converted into a generalized hodograph transformation. This construction gives an embedding of the finite-dimensional small phase space of these models into the full space of flows of this hierarchy. One of flat coordinates in the small phase space turns out to be identical to the first negative time variable of the hierarchy, whereas the others belong to the positive flows.     

Honeycomb domain structure

A theory is given of a new structure produced when demagnetizing uniaxial single crystals (e.g. magnetoplumbite) in a field normal to thec axis. The experimental results fully support the theory on the assumption that domain structures produced under normal conditions are metastable. Methods are given by which stable structures can be prepared from such metastable ones. On the basis of these results opinions are expressed as to the nucleation of plate and honeycomb structures, produced either by reducing the field from saturation or by cooling below the Curie point.

‘In’ and ‘out’ vertex operators in a class of UV-finite nonlinear σ-models

In and out scalar vertex operators are constructed perturbatively in a class of recently discovered UV finite nonlinear -models describing the string evolution in gravitational plane wave backgrounds. They exhibit peculiar singularities in the target space related to the focusing phenomena in such backgrounds well known from the classical and quantum gravity theories. The computation is performed up to three loops of the usual perturbation expansion and to all loops of the weak field limit. An argument is given that the vertex operator singularities should persist, even when summing up the all perturbation expansions.     

Feynman integral and complex classical trajectories

Let _t be an analytic solution of the Schrödinger equation with the initial condition . Let _t be the solution of the Schrödinger equation with the initial condition =, where is an analytic function. When 0, then _t (x) _t (x)¹ ( _t (x)), where _t (x) trajectory starting from x. We relate this result to Feynman's sum over trajectories and complex stochastic differential equations.     

A contribution to the semi-focusing method with a flat polycrystalline sample

Condition are derived for the approximate focusing of diffraction lines in the chosen, relatively wide angular region, using the semi-focusing method with a flat sample, if a bent crystal monochromator is employed. The form of the absorption factor for a flat polycrystalline sample is derived for the case of uniform oscillation of the sample in the angular region ± around the axis of the camera.

Symmetries and half-sided modular inclusions of von Neumann algebras

LetN, be a von Neumann algebras on a Hilbert space , a common cyclic and separating vector. Assume to be cyclic and also separating forN . Denote by , _N , _N the modular operators to (, ), (N, ), resp (N , ). Assume now ^-it N ^it N for allt 0. (Such type of inclusions ((N U, ) , ) are called half-sided modular.) Then the modular groups ^it , _N ^ir , _N ^is ,t, r, s generate a unitary representation of the group S1(2, )/Z ₂ of positive energy.Another result is related to two half-sided modular inclusions (₁ , ) and (₂ , ). Under proper conditions the three modular groups ^it , ₁ ^ir , ₂ ^is ,t, r, s generate the three-dimensional subgroup of O(2, 1) of two commuting translations and the Lorentz transformation.Partly supported by the DFG, SFB 288 Differentialgeometrie und Quantenphysik.

Partially inserted block in square lattice

The paper gives a theory of the partially inserted block (control rod) in a reactor of finite height, consisting of a square lattice of fuel blocks and a moderator. The partially inserted block replaces the block of the original lattice which was located in the axis of cylindrical symmetry of the reactor. The results obtained agree with the relations for a homogeneous medium in paper [1] and are thereby justified for homogeneized reactors.

     

On the theory of ferromagnetic thin films

As is known, the second approximation in the calculation of the partition function by the traces method of ferromagnetic thin films gives wrong results for the coordination number equal to eight. In order to obtain correct results even for this case, the third order approximation of the partition function is developed and thus the magnetic properties of body-centred cubic iron thin films are studied. The dependence of the Curie temperature on the thickness, for different values of the ratio between the anisotropy constant and the exchange energy between two neighbours, is discussed. A value can be chosen for this ratio such that the thin film becomes ferromagnetic only for a thickness greater than a definite value.

On the ferromagnetism of thin films

In this paper the magnetic properties of ferromagnetic thin layers are studied by calculating the partition function for the magnetic system inKirkwood's approximation of the second order. The results obtained for the Curie temperature and the magnetization are in somewhat better agreement with the experiment than those obtained by Valenta.

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.

Particle-like configurations of the electromagnetic field: An extension of de Broglie's ideas

Localised configurations of the free electromagnetic field are constructed, possessing properties of massive, spinning, relativistic particles. In an inertial frame, each configuration travels in a straight line at constant speed, less than the speed of lightc, while slowly spreading. It eventually decays into pulses of radiation travelling at speedc. Each configuration has a definite rest mass and internal angular momentum, or spin. Each can be of electric or magnetic type, according as the radial component of the magnetic or electric field vanishes in the rest frame, and each has an antiparticle. Any such configuration, of electric or magnetic type, is characterized in part by a set of labels (, ₀, ,l, m), where ₀ is the mean of the angular frequencies of the plane waves making up the configuration, is the variance of those frequencies, is a positive constant with dimensions of action, andl, m are angular momentum quantum numbers withl a positive integer andm an integer such that ml. The rest energy of the particle is ₀, its spin is m, and its lifetime is of the order of 1/. Its antiparticle has ₀ replaced by –₀.     

On quantum holonomy for mixed states

There is a natural connection and parallel transport on the Hilbert tensor product (or, equivalently, the space of Hilbert-Schmidt operators), the elements of which represent density matrices in up to unitary operators. We postulate a time evolution equation, which leads to this connection after extracting a proper dynamical unitary phase. As an example, we compute the holonomy of a loop of temperature states for the spin in a rotating magnetic field.Supported by Fonds zur Förderung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung in Österreich, Project No. P5588.     

МОДЕЛИРОВАНИЕ ЭЛЕКТ РОННО-ОПТИЧЕСКИХ СИС ТЕМ С ОСЕВОЙ СИММЕТРИЕЙ П РИ ПОМОЩИ СЕТИ СОПРОТИВЛЕНИЙ

The paper explains the theory of modelling electrostatic fields by a resistance network. The conditions, which the resistance network must satisfy, are derived and the question of modelling electrodes of different shapes is solved. The finished network and the results obtained on it when modelling a jet for a linear h-f accelerator of electrons are described. Particular attention is paid to the influence of a space charge, the modelling of which is an advantage of this method.

A remark on the decay rate of bound muons

The probability of the decay of a bound -meson is calculated using the theory of weak interactions with an intermediate boson. It is found that this theory, like all the others, cannot explain the experimental maximum atZ=26.

The influence of plastic deformation on the magnetostriction constant of nickel

The magnetostriction constant of nickel was measured as a function of plastic deformation up to an elongation of 30%. The values of the magnetostriction constant in deformed samples deviate considerably, a fact which cannot be explained by errors of measurement. The absolute value of the magnetostriction constant decreases with increasing plastic deformation (by around 5%).
