Calculation of Out‐of‐Plane Vibrations of a Porphin Molecule

Using the DFT/B3LYP method with the base set 631G^**, we carried out calculation of the frequencies of the normal vibrations of porphin and of its five isotopic types. Scaling of force constants for outofplane vibrations has been performed in independent natural coordinates. The symmetry coordinates are introduced and a force field for outof plane vibrations of a porphin molecule in independent coordinates of symmetry is obtained. A new correlation of the frequencies of vibrations in the type of the symmetry B _1u for the isotopic type of the d ₂ porphin molecule is suggested on the basis of discrete analysis of the distribution of a potential energy.     

End patterns of self-avoiding walks

Consider a fixed end pattern (a short self-avoiding walk) that can occur as the first few steps of an arbitrarily long self-avoiding walk on ^d. It is a difficult open problem to show that asN , the fraction ofN-step self-avoiding walks beginning with this pattern converges. It is shown that asN , this fraction is bounded away from zero, and that the ratio of the fractions forN andN+2 converges to one. Similar results are obtained when patterns are specified at both ends, and also when the endpoints are fixed.

Statistics of the One-Dimensional Riemann Walk

The Riemann walk is the lattice version of the Lévy flight. For the one-dimensional Riemann walk of Lévy exponent 0<<2 we study the statistics of the support, i.e., set of visited sites, after t steps. We consider a wide class of support related observables M(t), including the number S(t) of visited sites and the number I(t) of sequences of adjacent visited sites. For t we obtain the asymptotic power laws for the averages, variances, and correlations of these observables. Logarithmic correction factors appear for =2/3 and =1. Bulk and surface observables have different power laws for 1<2. Fluctuations are shown to be universal for 2/3 <2. This means that in the limit t the deviations from average M(t)M(t)–M-0304;(t-0304;) are fully described either by a single M independent stochastic process (when 2/3 <1) or by two such processes, one for the bulk and one for the surface observables (when 1<<2).     

Quantum measurements,sequential and latent

The results of a hypothetical experiment requiring a sequence of quantum measurements are obtained retrospectively, after the experiment has been completed, from a single reading of an apparatus register. The experiment is carried out reversibly and Schrödinger's equation is satisfied until the terminal reading of the register. The technique is illustrated using a feasible method of measuring photon spin as the quantum object observable and using the photon energy as the apparatus register. The technique is used to discuss the watchdog effect, the effect of repeated measurements inhibiting quantum jumps.     

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.     

Long-range correlations at depinning transitions

Semi-infinite systems are considered with long-range surface fields B _z ^–(1+r) for large distancesz from the surface. The influence of such fields on the global phase diagram and on the critical singularities of depinning transitions is studied within Landau theory. For |B|0, the correlation length diverges as b ^–1/2 withb=|Bln|B^–(1+r). For finiteB, t ^v withv =(2+r)/(2+2r) wheret measures the distance from bulk coexistence. In the latter case, a Ginzburg criterion leads to the upper critical dimensiond ^*=(2+3r)/(2+r).     

The optical constants of single crystals of hexagonal selenium

The optical constants of single crystals of hexagonal selenium in the region of the intrinsic absorption edge in polarized light were investigated. The absorption edge for light polarized normal to the optical axis of the crystal is displaced towards longer wavelengths. The absorption maximum of hexagonal selenium for a wavelength of 0·6 is interpreted as the maximum corresponding to interaction between neighbouring chains and in connection with this the position of the absorption edge of different modifications of selenium is discussed.

The influence of an alternating magnetic field on the remanent state of magnetically soft materials

A study is made of the influence of an alternating magnetic field of varying maximum amplitude on the remanent state, or rather, apparent remanent state of toroidal and open samples of metallic and non-metallic magnetically soft ferromagnetics. An interpretation of the corresponding dependences is given on the basis of Kondorski's conception of the composition of a polycrystalline jerromagnetic material.

     

A model of plasma acceleration similar to the “snow-plough” model

In this article a model similar to the snow-plough model is examined. Provided that efficient acceleration takes place only in the front of the accelerated gas, where a relatively thin current sheet flows, the dependence of path and velocity on time, the distribution of gas density and the energy transferred into the integral energy of plasma are found. Though the assumption of retaining the swept gas is not made, the results are very close to those of the snow-plough model.Zámek 1/I, Podbrady, Czechoslovakia.The author feels obliged to express his thanks to Prof. J. Kracík DrSc for discussions and his constant interest in this work.

Theory of percolation in fluids of long molecules

We use the reference interaction site model (RISM) integral equation theory to study the percolation behavior of fluids composed of long molecules. We examine the roles of hard core size and of length-to-width ratio on the percolation threshold. The critical density _c is a nonmonotonic function of these parameters exhibiting competition of different effects. Comparisons with Monte Carlo calculations of others are reasonably good. For critical exponents, the theory yields =2=2 for molecules of any noninfinite lengthL. WhenL is very large, the theory yields _cL ^–2. These predictions compare favorably with observations of the conductivity for random assemblies of conductive fibers. The threshold region where asymptotic scaling holds requires the correlation length (/ _c ) ^–v to be much larger thanL. Evidently, the range of densities in this region diminishes asL increases, requiring that density deviations from _c be no larger thanL ^–2. Otherwise, crossover behavior will be observed.     

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.

Bunching phenomena during electron injection into the betatron II. Theory of starting conditions

A theory of the azimuthal bunching of electrons injected into the betatron is presented and compared with the experiments described in [1]. The bunching is treated as a small perturbation of the stationary beam.The stationary injected beam is replaced by the corresponding equilibrium beam of the same perveance so that the angular velocity spread of the injected electrons is proportional to the square root of the injection perveance.Self-consistent wave solutions for the perturbation of the stationary solution are then found. Equations giving the amplification of small density or energy disturbances along the beam are derived. These disturbances are assumed to be introduced by density or velocity modulation of the injected beam. The condition for the spontaneous occurrence of bunching is deduced by assuming that the disturbances do not vanish even when there is no modulation of the injected beam. The resulting expressions for the threshold perveance and the rise-time of the disturbance are in reasonably good agreement with the experiments. Such agreement may be considered as further verification of the statement made in [1] that the amplification of the disturbances is caused by the negative mass instability mechanism.

Gamma-ray spectroscopy in 110Sn and 111Sn

Excited states in ¹¹⁰Sn and ¹¹¹Sn nuclei have been investigated using in-beam -ray spectroscopic methods. An ¹⁶O beam with an energy of 60-80MeV was used to bombard a ⁹⁸Mo target. On the basis of the relative excitation functions, -ray angular distributions, - and -time distributions, -ray multiplicity and total energy data, the level schemes of ¹¹⁰Sn and ¹¹¹Sn have been studied and extended up to E_exc 11.5MeV, I = 24, and E_exc 11.1MeV and I = (51/2), respectively. An extension of the intruder, g.s. and negative-parity bands, as well as 5 new band-like structures are proposed in ¹¹⁰Sn. The nature of newly introduced collective band 8 as well as 10⁺ states fed in the decay of the collective band is discussed. In the ¹¹¹Sn nucleus an intruder band based on the 23/2^- state has been reinvestigated and the extension of the g.s. band and second negative-parity band is given. Evidence for neutron-core coupling in ¹¹¹Sn is found. The structure and systematics of excited states in light Sn isotopes is discussed.

Angular distribution of gamma quanta in the capture of polarized μ−-mesons by atomic nuclei

The capture of a polarized ^–-meson from theK-orbit of a mesic atom is investigated for the case when the nucleus after ^–-capture is in an excited state and emits a -quantum of multipolarityL (any type). The angular distribution of circular polarized -quanta with respect to the direction of the polarization of the ^–-meson on theK-orbit is obtained for the case of allowed transitions (according to the Morita-Fujii classification).

The critical point indices of ferroelectric and ferromagnetic phase transitions

Magnetic transitions are described by the critical indices0,1/3,4/3 while some ferroelectric transitions appear to give0,R~1/2,1. It is pointed out that these two sets of values for the critical indices are allowed by the scaling laws and stability conditions near the phase transitions.The authors thank Prof. R. S. Krishnan for his encouragement and Mr. B. Viswanathan for some discussions. The financial assistance from DAE and CSIR is also acknowledged.

Betatron oscillations in an accelerator with a general field. II

In the second part of the theory of an accelerator with a generalized field the author solves the dynamics of particles in a stationary approximation (without acceleration). The trajectories of the particles in the neigbourhood of the equilibrium orbit are related to it as betatron oscillations. An analysis of betatron oscillations includes the region of stability determined by means of Routh-Hurwitz criterion, damping, resonance effects and field perturbations. A general matrix method is presented permiting the inclusion of all the focusing structures used in accelerators.

     

The choice of test functions in gauge quantum field theories

We discuss the problem of the choice of test functions in gauge quantum field theories. Analysis of explicitly soluble models suggests that the test function spaces which are suitable for local and covariant formulation of gauge theories are the Gelfand and Shilov spaces , +>1. We also discuss a possible generalization of the spectral condition.
