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).

The crystal structure of copper dipyridine dibromide Cu(C5H5N)2Br2

The X-ray structural analysis of copper dipyridine dibromide was carried out. The substance is monoclinic, its space group isP2₁/n, having the lattice constantsa=8.30 kXU,b=17.72 kXU,c=4.04 kXU,=96°,Z=2. The localization of the heavy atoms was carried out by means of the projections of the Patterson functionsP(u, v) andP(v, w), which provided the bases for determining the signs of the majority of structure factors. The projections of the electron density(x, y) and(y, z) were calculated on the basis of these data. The positions of the atoms were refined three times by methods of differential syntheses and by geometrical analysis. The structure of CuPy₂Br₂ is very close to that of CuPy₂Cl₂ [1], [2], differing from it primarily in the orientation of the symmetry elements with respect to the crystallographic axes. In both structures the copper atom is octahedrally coordinated with four halogen and two nitrogen atoms. The nitrogen atoms and two bromine atoms are bound to the copper covalently in the structure of the bromine derivative, as follows from the length of the bonds (Cu-N 1.99 kXU, Cu-Br, 2.46 kXU), while the remaining two bromine atoms are bound to the copper by weaker bonds and mediate the chain formation of molecules in the direction of thec axis.

Disks vs. spheres: Contrasting properties of random packings

Collections of random packings of rigid disks and spheres have been generated by computer using a previously described concurrent algorithm. Particles begin as infinitesimal moving points, grow in size at a uniform rate, undergo energy-onconserving collisions, and eventually jam up. Periodic boundary conditions apply, and various numbers of particles have been considered (N2000 for disks,N8000 for spheres). The irregular disk packings thus formed are clearly polycrystalline with mean grain size dependent upon particle growth rate. By contrast, the sphere packings show a homogeneously amorphous texture substantially devoid of crystalline grains. This distinction strongly influences the respective results for packing pair correlation functions and for the distributions of particles by contact number. Rapidly grown disk packings display occasional vacancies within the crystalline grains; no comparable voids of such distinctive size have been found in the random sphere packings. Rattler particles free to move locally but imprisoned by jammed neighbors occur in both the disk and sphere packings.This paper is dedicated to Jerry Percus on the occasion of his 65th birthday.

Current distributions in a two-dimensional random-resistor network

The current and logarithm-of-the-current distributionsn(i) andn(ln i) on bond diluted two-dimensional random-resistor networks at the percolation threshold are studied by a modified transfer matrix method. Thek th moment (–9k8) of n(ln i) i.e., ln i&^k, is found to scale with the linear sizeL as (InL)^(k). The exponents (k) are not inconsistent with the recent theoretical prediction (k)=k, with deviations which may be attributed to severe finitesize effects. For small currents, ln n(y)–, yielding information on the threshold below which the multifractality of (i) breaks down. Our numerical results for the moments of the currents are consistent with other available results.

On the problem of the phase shifts of reflected light

The paper solves the topical question of phase shifts when light is reflected. By introducing the reflection tensor and its transformation it was found that all phase shifts hitherto given in the literature can be used. It was proved that when different phase shifts are used the corresponding unit vectors must be oriented. If an arbitrary coordinate system and the relations pertaining to it are used consistently it is not possible by calculation or experiment to arrive at contradictory results.

On the asymptotic behaviour of infinite gradient systems

We consider gradient systems of infinitely many particles in one-dimensional space interacting via a positive invariant pair potential with a hard core. The main assumption is that is strictly convex within the rangeR of (whereR is a fixed number ). Under some technical conditions we prove the following theorems: Let the initial distribution be given by a translation invariant point process onR ¹. Then there exists only one extreme equilibrium state with a given intensityI() satisfyingI()R ^–1, and all ergodic initial distributions with an intensityI()R ^–1 converge weakly ast to the extreme equilibrium state with the same intensity.     

On the energy balance in the optics of metals

On the basis of the boundary conditions of the electromagnetic theory an explicit calculation of the absorption in a thin metallic film was carried out with the result that transport and interference components were found to exist. By applying the method to a simple metal-dielectric boundary the physical interpretation was given of the energy balance, which had hitherto been regarded as unclear. It was also explained why the reversibility principle fails when applied to a metal-dielectric boundary.

The distribution of ions and their valencies in manganese ferrites I. MnFe2O4+γ ferrites

A model for the distribution of cations in the spinel lattice of manganese ferrites MnFe₂O₄₊ was elaborated on the basis of the experimental studies of the basic magnetic quantities, electrical conductivity and magnetic relaxation of the given ferrites, taking into consideration their crystallographic properties. The conclusions following from this model are in good agreement with the experimental results obtained by us and by other authors both for stoichiometric manganese ferrite and for a ferrite where 0.

The paper contains further results of studying dislocations rendered visible by anodic dissolving on the surface of single crystals of alpha-iron. The influence of the crystallographic orientation of the surface is investigated, the effect of carbon is confirmed and the anodic process is studied. The mechanism of dissolving of the crystal is given and a new more suitable method of rendering dislocations visible is derived.

The basic equations of the dynamics of the continuous distribution of dislocations III. special problems

The basic equations of the dynamics of the continuous distribution of dislocations analogical to Maxwell equations are derived in a series of papers [I, II, III]. The analogy of the elastic and electromagnetic fields is analyzed. In part [III] some special problems are discussed, such as the density of the forces acting on the dislocations, the energy dissipation during the movement of dislocations, which is expressed by an equation analogical to Ohm's law. The equations derived in the previous parts in four-dimensional symbolics are considered in the three-dimensional differential and integral form. It is found that in special cases the relations become the known ones of elastodynamics, hydrodynamics and the static theory of the continuous distribution of dislocations. It is found that Kröner's method of integrating the equations of the dislocation field by means of so-called incompatibility tensors is analogical to the integration of the Maxwell equations by means of Hertz vectors. The analogy between the elastic dislocation field and the electromagnetic field is discussed in detail.

On the problem of the permittivity dispersion of barium titanate

The complex permittivity of multidomain single crystals of BaTiO₃ was measured in the decimetre and centimetre wave bands and it was proved that in this frequency region there is dispersion of the permittivity. Apparatus for measuring the permittivity of substances with a high is described and the influence of the inhomogeneity of the field in the sample on the characteristics of the cavity resonator is calculated. Present theories of the high-frequency properties of BaTiO₃ are discussed from the point of view of the experimental results.

Absence of asymptotic-time symmetry breaking in zero-bias spin-boson model with partial relaxation

The symmetric spin-boson model without external field is treated for any type of coupling to the boson bath and any initial bath density matrix. With initially fully aligned spin (_z (0)= =1), the proof is given that a partial relaxation (_z (+) t1<) implies that there is no asymptotic-time (up-and-down) symmetry breaking (i.e. that _z (+)=0). For the problem of a particle (interacting with free bosons) in a symmetric double well without spatial symmetry breaking before the infinite time limit, this means that att + the particle distribution becomes symmetric (irrespective of the full initial asymmetry) unless the particle fully remains (att + ) in Ihe starting well.     

Zur Temperaturabhängigkeit einiger Kenngrössen der Verfestigungskurven von Zinkeinkristallen

Zusammenfassung Es werden Ergebnisse beschrieben über die Temperaturabhängigkeit: der kritischen Schubspannung ₀, des Verfestigungskoeffizienten _A , im BereichA der Verfestigungskurve; des Verfestigungskoeffizienten _B im BereichB, der Längea _A des BereichsA und der Schubspannung _A am Ende des BereichsA. Die kritische Schubspannung wächst im Temperaturbereich 225–344°K linear mit abnehmender Temperatur. Der Temperaturverlauf des Verfestigungskoeffizienten _A , stimmt überein mit älteren Messungen an h.k.p. Metallen. Ähnlich verhält sich der Verfestigungskoeffizient _B . Die Schubspannung am Ende des BereichsA wird durch thermisch aktivierte Vorgänge beeinflußt. Der BereichA verkürzt sich im Temperaturbereich 0–85°C linear mit zunehmender Temperatur. Temperaturwechselversuche zeigen, daß im BereichB thermisch irreversible Änderungen in der Versetzungsstruktur auftreten.

Two-barrier detector

The paper describes the principle of a detector with two opposite surface barriers and the experimental verification of its functioning. The detector permits double the effective depth to be attained on the material with a given bias voltage. The principle of opposite barriers also permits a reduction in the system of dE/dx andE detectors to one detector.

New derivation of Bardeen-Shockley formula for mobility of electrons in homopolar semi-conductors

The Bardeen-Shockley formula for the mobility of an electron or hole in a homopolar semi-conductor is derived in a different way to that in which its authors obtained it. The interaction energy of the electron with the acoustic lattice oscillations is derived in an original way. A new possibility for determining the energy gap is given.

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.
