Interpretation of measurements of π0-meson photoproduction partial cross sections on a6Li nucleus with O+ level excitation

The anomalously large measured values of the cross section of the reaction +⁶Li ⁰ +⁶Li^* (3.56 MeV), which were obtained in two different laboratories, 260–450 MeV -rays, are discussed. It is shown that the disagreement between theory and experiment is due to the background reaction +⁷Li ⁰ + n +⁶Li^* (3.56 MeV), which became possible as a result of the poor isotropic purity of the target. This background reaction is discussed with respect to obtaining data on ⁰-meson photoproduction on neutrons.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 11, 92–96, November, 1991.     

Local energy flux and the refined similarity hypothesis

In this paper we demonstrate the locality of energy transport for incompressible Euler equations both in space and in scale. The key to the proof is the proper definition of a local subscale flux, _t (r), which is supposed to be a measure of energy transfer to length scales <l at the space point r. Kraichnan suggested that for such a quantity the refined similarity hypothesis will hold, which Kolmogorov originally assumed to hold instead for volume-averaged dissipation. We derive a local energy-balance relation for the large-scale motions which yields a natural definition of such a subscale flux. For this definition a precise form of the refined similarity hypothesis is rigorously proved as a big-O bound. The established estimate is _t (r)=O(l _3h-1) in terms of the local Hölder exponenth at the point r, which is also the estimate assumed in the Parisi-Frisch multifractal model. Our method not only establishes locality of energy transfer, but it also clarifies the physical reason that convection effects, which naively violate locality, do not contribute to the subscale flux. In fact, we show that, as a consequence of incompressibility, such effects enter into the local energy balance only as the divergence of a spatial current. Therefore, they describe motion of energy in space and cancel in the integration over volume. We also discuss theorems of Onsager, Eyink, and Constantinet al. on energy conservation for Euler dynamics, particularly to explain their relation with the Parisi-Frisch model. The Constantinet al. proof may be interpreted as giving a bound on the total flux, _t =d ^d r _t (r), of the form _t (r)=O(l _z3h-1), wherez ₃ is the third-order scaling exponent (or Besov index), in agreement with the multifractal model. Finally, we discuss how the local estimates are related to the results of Caffarelli-Kohn-Nirenberg on partial regularity for solutions of Navier-Stokes equations. They provide some heuristic support to a scenario proposed recently by Pumir and Siggia for singularities in the solutions of Navier-Stokes with small enough viscosity.     

On the Surface Pressure for the Edwards-Anderson Model

For the Edwards-Anderson model we introduce an integral representation for the surface pressure (per unit surface) in terms of a quenched moment of the bond-overlap on the surface. We consider free , periodic and antiperiodic ^* boundary conditions (by symmetry ⁽⁾=^(*)), and prove the bounds We show moreover that at high temperatures ⁽⁾ is close to ^2/4 and ⁽⁾ is close to ^2/4 uniformly in the volume .

Investigation of the excitation of nitrogen molecules in the positive column of a discharge in a mixture of CO2 and N2

The absolute populations of the electron states of the nitrogen molecule C³_u and B³_g in the positive column of a discharge in a mixture of CO₂ and N₂ at an overall pressure of 2.5 mm Hg, a ratio of the components of 11, and a current of 60 mA, are determined. An estimate is made of the possibility of exciting the electron state C³_u by direct electron collision and by multistage excitation from the electron state B³_g. It is suggested that the most probable process by which the electron state C³_u is excited is multistage excitation from vibrational levels of the electron state B³_g.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 49–52, October, 1972.

Luminescence of AgCl crystals

The luminescence of normal and deformed single crystals of AgCl of different thickness was measured at a temperature of –180°C. With deformed samples the decrease in intensity of the luminescence was measured. On the luminescence band of the above crystals we observed a fine structure for which the series rule could be used (edge of series =4640 Å, =5080 Å).The observed luminescence was explained by means of the exciton mechanism proposed by Matyá, i.e. annihilation of a localized exciton either on a cation vacancy or on a cation vacancy on a dislocation jog. The luminescence yield at –183°C, =1.6×10^–3%±10%, was measured by a photographic method.

     

The influence of oscillations on ionization in a discharge path

The paper solves the problem of gas ionization in a discharge path in a very dilute gas, where the free path of the electrons is much larger than the dimensions of the path and the transit time of the electrons between the electrodes is of the order of the period of the applied h-f voltage. It was found that for a certain ratio of the transit time of the electrons between the electrodes in the discharge path to the period of the h-f oscillation, resonance occurs when the wattless current component is zero. The electron density rises in the path and thus also the gas ionization.

The propagation of excitation energy in perturbed crystals

The process of the propagation of excitation energy in perturbed dielectric crystals with a weak bond between the atoms having zero permanent dipole moment is studied. It is shown that on certain assumptions this process of propagation can be regarded as the motion of a Frenkel exciton in the electrostatic field of the defect. Frenkel's exciton can be characterized in this case as a neutral polarizable particle having induced dipole moment equal to the change in the induced dipole moment of the crystal during the excitation of one of its atoms.

Gas kinetic studies using a table-top set-up with electron beam excitation: quenching of molecular nitrogen emission by water vapour

A table-top set-up for studying gas kinetic processes in dense gases via time resolved optical spectroscopy is presented. The set-up uses low energy electron beams for gas excitation. A thin silicon nitride membrane separating the electron source and the gas cell allows to use electron energies as low as 10–15 keV. The electron source is operated in a fast pulsing mode with a pulse width of 5 ns and repetition rates up to 30 kHz. Light emission from the target gas sample is studied and time resolved photon counting is used to measure decay times and collisional rate constants for specific excited states. The experimental concept is applied to measure the rate constants for quenching of molecular nitrogen in the C 3u state (vibrational levels 0 and 1) by water vapour. Quenching rate constants of (7.1 ±0.7)×10-10 s-1 cm3 and (6.7 ±0.7)×10-10 s-1cm3 were obtained for the C 3u (v = 0) and C 3u (v = 1) vibrational levels, respectively.     

Thermometry of an oxy-acetylene flame using multiplex degenerate four-wave mixing of C2

Thermometry of an oxy-acetylene flame using multiplex Degenerate Four-Wave Mixing (DFWM) of C₂ is demonstrated. More than 100 rotational transitions in thed ³ _g a ³ _u (0,0) Swan band of C₂ could be recorded simultaneously by use of a pulsed, broad bandwidth modeless laser. Temperatures were inferred by fitting temperature-dependent synthetic spectra of single- or multiple-shot averaged spectra. The strength and reliability of recorded signals together with the large number of rotational lines observed suggest that multiplex DFWM is a promising technique for minor species detection and for temporally resolved temperature measurements in luminous environments. Factors influencing the accuracy and precision of single-shot thermometry using the technique are discussed.     

Measurement of CrO in flames by cavity ringdown spectroscopy

CrO is an important intermediate in the high temperature oxidation chemistry of chromium containing species. This work reports the first detection of CrO in a flame. The B⁵-X⁵ electronic transition was probed by cavity ringdown spectroscopy (CRDS) in a lean (=0.38), low-pressure, flat, laminar hydrogen-oxygen-argon flame seeded with Cr(CO)₆. The previous B⁵-X⁵ CrO spectrum of Hocking et al. (605.0 nm-606.5 nm) is extended from the band head located at 605.6 nm to 614.4 nm. The temperature profiles of the doped and undoped flames were obtained from measurements of OH laser- induced fluorescence. Seeding the flame with Cr(CO)₆ increased the flame temperature by approximately 150 K. The concentration profile of CrO was measured as a function of height above the burner. CrO absorption signals were converted to concentration using the measured temperature profile and absorption cross-section calculated from lifetimes by Hedgecock et al. A lower limit peak CrO concentration of 1.6 ppb was found in the flame. Some uncertainty in the cross-section remains. Comparisons to calculations using STANJAN indicate that CrO is present in flames at super equilibrium concentrations. PACS 82.33.Vx; 42.62.Fi     

Periodic Motion of Atoms Near a Charged Wire

We study the classical motion of an atom in the vicinity of an infinite straight wire which carries an oscillating uniform charge. This system has been proposed as a mechanism for trapping cold neutral atoms. The parameters of the problem are the magnitude Q and frequency of oscillation of the charge, the mass M and polarizability of the atom, and the angular momentum L of the atom about the wire. For 0 and 2MQ ² greater than, but close to, L ², we prove that the atom's radial motion is periodic (with period 2/), and that the atom moves in a helical path around the wire. For 2MQ ² L ² we prove that the atom must either collide with the wire or else escape to infinity in the radial direction.

Sensitivity of approximate formulas for determining optical constants of thin films

The sensitivity of approximate formulas for determining the optical constants of thin films using measurement of reflectancesR and transmittancesT at normal incidence have been investigated theoretically. The ranges of refractive indexn, absorption indexk,2nk (=₂) andn ²–k ²(=₁) within relative errors of 5%, 10%, and 20% may be obtained. Selected signs of (₁)⁺ or (₁)^– have been determined. Validity of the condition n₀ A=n _s A has been also evaluated (A=1–R –T andA=1–R–T).
