On the relation between the method of spherical harmonics and the method of discrete coordinates

The relation between the method of spherical harmonics and the method of discrete coordinates is studied from the point of view of the integral Boltzmann equation for neutron diffusion problems which have full plane and cylindrical symmetry.

     

Phase Transformations α → β → γ → δ → ε in Titanium Hydride TiH x with Increase in Hydrogen Concentration

Structural phase transformations of the hcp bcc fct fcc fct ( ) type in titanium hydrides TiH _x experimentally found to occur with increase in the hydrogen concentration x are studied theoretically. Free energy phases are statistically calculated, and their concentration dependence is determined. Phase transformation temperatures are found from intersection points of free energy curves and from points of common tangents to the curves. The energy parameters of the system are estimated. The calculation results are compared with the experimental data.     

D-Dimensional ideal gas in parastatistics: Thermodynamic properties

We consider a parastatistics ideal gas with energy spectrum ¦k¦ (>0) or even more generally in ad-dimensional box with volumeV (periodic boundary conditions), the numberN of the gas particles being well determined (real particles) or not (quasiparticles). We calculate the main thermodynamic quantities (chemical potential, internal energy, specific heatC, equation of state, latent heat, average numbers of particles) for arbitraryd, ,T (temperature), andp (maximal number of particles per state allowed in the parastatistics). The main asymptotic regimes are worked out explicitly. In particular, the Bose-Einstein condensation for fixed densityN/V appears as a nonuniform convergence in thep limit, in complete analogy with the standard critical phenomena that appear in interacting systems in theN limit. The system behaves essentially like a Fermi-Dirac one forall finite values ofp, and reveals a Bose-Einstein behavioronly in thep limit. For instance, at low temperaturesC T ifp< andC T ^d/ ifp. Finally, the Sommerfeld integral and its expansion are generalized to an arbitrary, finitep.     

The free energy of a class of Hopfield models

We show that in the limitp ,N 0,=p/N 0 the limit free energy of the Hopfield model equals in probability the Curie-Weiss free energy. We prove also that the free energy of the Hopfield model is self-averaging for any finite .     

Energy spectrum and angular distribution of muons from the decay of heavy leptons produced in colliding electron-positron beams

On the basis of an arbitrary (V, A) structure of the neutral weak ¯ee and LL currents (L=^–, M⁰) a study is made of the processes of production in colliding electron-positron beams of pairs of heavy leptons with subsequent decays in accordance with the schemes e⁺e^––(µ^–v_µv) + ⁺( anything) and e⁺e^–M⁰(µ^–e⁺v_e) + M⁰( anything). The energy spectrum and asymmetry of the distribution of the produced muons are investigated.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 2, pp. 66–70, February, 1981.     

A derivation of the Broadwell equation

We consider a stochastic system of particles in a two dimensional lattice and prove that, under a suitable limit (i.e.N, 0,N²const, whereN is the number of particles and is the mesh of the lattice) the one-particle distribution function converges to a solution of the two-dimensional Broadwell equation for all times for which the solution (of this equation) exists. Propagation of chaos is also proven.Research partially supported by CNR-PS-MMAIT

Studies on the microstructure of phase transitions in two kinds of liquid crystals by PAT and DSC

The positron lifetime and DSC measerments for EBBA and DOBAMBC have been made with heating and cooling clycles. The experimental results show that a shorter lifetime (₁) is essentially independent of temperature while the longer lifetime (₂) and the intensity (I ₂) change abruptly double or triple with temperature. Consequently, the EBBA has only nematic phases while the DOBAMBC has two liquid-crystalline phases (smectic C* and smectic A) with transition temperatures as follows: for EBBA, solid nematic (304.5 K), nematic isotropic (356.5 K), isotropic nematic (356.5 K), nematic solid (301 K); and for DOBAMBC, solid smectic C* (346 K), smectic C* smectic A (357.5 K), smectic A isotropic (389 K). These critical temperatures are in accordance with the transition temperatures measured by DSC. In addition, the difference in the solid-nematic transition temperature in the heating and cooling cycles was also observed. A discussion about the correlation of the observed changes in lifetime (₂) with the changes in molecular orientational order (S) and dielectric anisotropy () is presented.     

Multiparticle fractal aggregation

Kinetic fractal aggregation in a particle bath where a fractionf of the sites are initially occupied is studied withd=2 computer simulations. Independent particles diffusing to a fixed cluster produce an aggregate with fractal dimensionD 1.7 up to a correlation length(f). At larger lengthsD2.(f) asf 0. When the particles remain fixed but the cluster undergoes a rigid random walkD appears constant at larger scales but varies withf. D 1.95 at largef andD 1.7 asf 0. In both cases, the aggregate sizeN(t) grows with timet ^(f) . Aggregation on a surface by independently diffusing particles produces shapes reminiscent of electrochemical dendritic growth. The dependence of growth rate and geometry is studied as a function of particle concentration and sticking probability.     

Particle polarizations in decays of5HeΛ and4HΛhypernuclei

Nucleon polarizations are examined in the hypernucleus decays⁵He, ⁴He + p + _–,⁴H, ³H + p + _–, and⁴H, ³He + n + _–. The effect of the strong interaction in the final state is taken into account. A significant role is predicted for the resonance interaction in the p-⁴He system in the formation of the proton polarization in the⁵He decay. It is also shown that in the⁴H, ³H + p + _– decay the proton-polarization components should attain significant magnitudes, while in the charge-exchange decay⁴H, ³He + n + _–, the neutron polarization is expected to be not too large.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 100–103, October, 1988.     

To the problem of KL→π0γγ decay

It is shown that the contribution of diagrams with intermediate state vector mesons to the K_L ⁰ amplitude, intensively discussed in literature in recent years, is close to zero provided that theSU(3) group breaking is taken into account. At the same time, the contribution of scalar mesons in the intermediate state is essential. The obtained estimates for Br(K_L ⁰) conform with the recent experimental data Br(K_L ⁰ )=(2·1 ± 0·6)×10^–6.Dedicated to the memory of our friend Prof. M. Gmitro.We wish to thank S. B. Gerasimov and A. B. Govorkov for useful discussions.

Phase diagram and scattering intensity of binary amphiphilic systems

A Ginzburg-Landau model with a scalar and a vector order parameter, which describe the concentration and orientation of the amphiphile, respectively, is used to study the phase diagram and the scattering intensity of binary amphiphilic systems. With increasing amphiphile concentration, the calculated phase diagram shows the typical sequence of ordered phases observed experimentally, that is micellar liquid cubic micellar hexagonal lamellar cubic bicontinuous invers hexagonal. The scattering intensity in the homogeneous phase is calculated in the oneloop approximation. In the vicinity of a phase transition to an ordered phase, the intensity is found to show a 1/q behavior for not too small wave vectorsq, followed by a small peak, and a 1/q ² decay for large wave vectors, in agreement with experimental observations in theL ₃-(or sponge-)phase.Dedicated to Prof. H. Wagner on the occasion of his 60th birthday     

KL,S → l+l− decays in the quark model of superconductivity type

The probabilities of K_L,S l⁺l^– decays are calculated by considering only the dominant two-lepton channel K_L,S ^{* *} l⁺l^–. The transitions K⁰ X, where X=⁰,, or (700) dominating in the K_L,S ^{* *}decay amplitudes, are described by the effective weak Lagrangian. The matrix elements of four-quark operators are calculated within the framework of the quark model of superconductivity type. It is shown that the leading contribution to matrix elements of K⁰ X transitions comes from the penguin operator matrix elements.     

Effect of violating t-invariance of the electromagnetic interaction of hadrons in the processes n + p → d + γ and n + → d + e++e−

T-odd correlations that are possible in the processes n + p d + and n + p d + e⁺ + e^e- and that arise due to the capture of thermal neutrons are determined in terms of threshold amplitudes (for the process n + p d + @#@) or electromagnetic inelastic form factors (for the process n + p d+ e⁺ + e^e§-). The mechanism of these reactions is not given in concrete form, but those general properties of the electromagnetic hadronic current are used that are preserved with three-dimensional reflections.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 8–13, October, 1986.     

Notes on the classical and the nonrelativistic limits in quantum mechanics

A method is presented which can be used to discuss both the classical and also the nonrelativistic limit of quantum mechanics. A one-to-one correspondence may be established between the asymptotic convergence of the resolvent and that of the timedependent solution. In so far as the question of dynamics is concerned we investigate the relation between families of nonrelativistic Hamiltonians and the corresponding Dirac-Hamiltonians when c± or when c±0. The nonrelativistic free theory formally shows the same pattern when ±0 (the classical limit) or when ±. The investigation finally shows how the asymptotic convergence of the relativistic theory can take place under some fairly general conditions of the radiation field.     

Fractional-order diffusion-wave equation

The fractional-order diffusion-wave equation is an evolution equation of order (0, 2] which continues to the diffusion equation when 1 and to the wave equation when 2. We prove some properties of its solution and give some examples. We define a new fractional calculus (negative-direction fractional calculus) and study some of its properties. We study the existence, uniqueness, and properties of the solution of the negative-direction fractional diffusion-wave problem.     

Mesonless decay of hypernucleiΛH4 andΛHe4 in a model of the direct conversion of Λ to a neutron

The decay probabilities of the hypernuclei H⁴ and He⁴ are calculated within the framework of the mesonless decay model of hypernuclei with direct conversion of to a neutron. All possible channels are considered: H⁴ tn, d2n, p3n and He⁴ He³n, tp, dd, dpn, 2p2n. Interaction in the final state between the decay products was neglected, but Pauli's principle for the final identical particles was taken into account completely. The predominant decay channels are three- and four-particle paths. The results are compared with experimental data.Translated from Izvestiya VUZ. Fizika, No. 1, pp. 86–94, January, 1972.     

Emission of soft bremsstrahlungγ-rays in p + p → p + p +γ and π−+p → π0+n +γ reactions

Low's theorem [1] on the emission of soft -rays is applied to a study of p + p p+p+ and ^– + p ⁰+ n + reactions. The first two terms in the expansion of the differential cross sections for these processes in powers of the photon energy are obtained (for proton scattering in the ultrarelativistic limit).In conclusion, we wish to express our gratitude to S. M. Bilen'kii and R. M. Ryndin for directing this work.     

Rate equations in the hopping transport

The usual kinetic equations for the site occupation probabilities in an external field are solved exactly in a simple one-dimensional periodic model with two kinds of atoms using a) free boundary conditions and order of limitsN, 0 needed for a proper treatment of the dc conductivity here b) boundary conditions with metallic contacts and order of limitsN, 0 and c) the same boundary conditions but reversed order of limiting processes 0,N typical of e.g. numerical and percolation treatments. (N and are the number of sites and frequency.) It is demonstrated that though the bulk dc conductivity is the same in all three cases, local bulk properties of the material are strongly dependent on the régime used. The role of the order of all three limiting processes 0,N+ andn+ (N–n+) for local shifts of the chemical potential _n in the dc limit is examined (n is the number of the relevant site calculated from a boundary of the chain). It is shown especially that the rate equation treatment (régime a) on the one hand and numerical or percolation treatments (régime c) on the other hand never yield the same bulk values of _r.
