Stability of a glow discharge in small currents

Two approximations of the dynamic characteristic of a glow discharge for small currents are derived. In the first approximation only the influence of the rate of rise and decay of charge carriers in the delay process is accounted for. In the second approximation, the influence of the rate of stabilization of the radial electric field in the discharge is added. On the basis of the derived equations the conditions for the simplest stability of the discharge are calculated. A comparison with experiment gives satisfactory results.

Convective excitation of quasistatic waves in an inhomogeneous anisothermic plasma II. Nonlinear estimates

Nonlinear effects stabilizing the convective instabilities excited in an anisothermic plasma (T _etT _i) at the plasma boundaryaV_s/ _Bi) are discussed. Waves having in the linear theory (Part I) the highest growth rates ( _Bi) saturate at first. Being excited by a small part of slow plasma electrons ( _zTe) only, they saturate at a relatively low level. Further, surface waves with lower frequencies and higher phase velocities ( _ph/k_z) become dominant and a broadening of the plasma boundary occurs. For their saturation nonlinear interaction is more important than the quasilinear effects. During the time interval of several _Bi ^–1 the longest surface waves withk _yBi/V_s, _Bik_yV_s and _{ph Te} saturate at the absolutely highest level. The plasma boundary broadens in the meanwhile up toaV _s/_Bi. The wave energy is comparable to the whole energy connected with the longitudinal motion of the initially thermal electrons inside this boundary layer. The wave amplitude is large enough to trap the initially cold ions belonging to this layer and heat them up to energies comparable to those of the electron component. The heating process occurs again within several _Bi ^–1 and the Larmor radius of the ions is then comparable toV _s/_Bi. Further evolution of the system is governed by the unstable local perturbations.He leaves of absence from thePhysical and Technical Institute, Kharkov, USSR.     

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.

Cyclotron instabilities of a two-component electron plasma

A study is made of instability at frequencies close to the electron cyclotron frequency _B and its multiples, subject to the presence of two different groups of electrons. It is shown that a mixture of hot and cold electrons ( _ph ² _pc ² ) in the region of frequencies s _B, s2 can be unstable with respect to waves of the flute type (k _z=0) with maximum increment _max ( _ph/_pc). _B, if there exists an interval of transversal velocities in whichF/ >0. When the curvature of the magnetic field is taken into account, even waves with _B can be unstable in such a plasma. The effect of spatial inhomogeneity of the hot component on flute-type instability and on two-beam cyclotron instability is also examined.The author extends his thanks to A. B. Mikhajlovskij for his valuable comments and discussions.     

An interpretation of the conditions for the existence of Shockley surface states

A study is made of the Shockley surface states in a linear chain of equal atoms, joined by alternately strong bonds. If the simple MO LCAO method is used, which considers the exchange integrals between nearest neighbours and next nearest neighbours, we get the surface states for a semi-infinite chain if the stronger bond is interrupted. The connection between Shockley and Tamm surface states is shown and the hypothesis is put forward that the condition for the existence of Shockley surface states has a generally simple physical interpretation, the validity of which is proved on the models of a semi-infinite crystal studied up to now.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Half-Sided Translations and tye Type of von Neumann Algebras

Let M be a von Neumann algebra acting on a Hilbert space H and H a cyclic and separating vector for M. If there exists a half-sided translation for M, i.e. a continuous unitary group U(t) with U(t)=, a non-negative spectrum fulfilling Ad U(t)M M for t 0 (or 0), then we will show that either M is of type III₁ or U(t) is trivial.     

Phase transformations in Cu-Sn alloys containing Ni,Al, Ge,and In

After quenching from 700C and aging, Cu-Sn alloys containing Ni and Al were found to have a precipitation of-solid solution, with a DO₃ type of ordering, of metastable ,, and phases. It was established that the phase has an 4 type of ordering while the phase has the Cu₃Ti type. Observations revealed that Cu-Sn-Al alloys contained two phases, and, with an identical structure but with different ratios of electron concentration per atom.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 4, pp. 34–37, April, 1981.     

Choice of parameters of an X-ray monochromating unit

In recent papers a way of computing the monochromated wavelength distribution in some current experimental arrangements was presented. In this paper an application is shown for the Johansson monochromating unit. The conditions are indicated for attaining the desired breadth of the monochromated interval and for its maximum intensity. The analysis implies that it is not advantageous to use very narrow foci and that the crystals should be neither very perfect nor very imperfect. The optimum conditions must be found in each case separately.

The electrodynamics and statistical mechanics of linear plasma response functions

The purpose of this paper is to review and to extend, wherever possible, the Kramers-Kronig relations, sum rules, and symmetry properties for the electrodynamic transport tensors of a linear plasma medium. For complete generality, we consider both nonrelativistic and relativistic plasmas with and without external magnetic fields. Our study is carried out first within the framework of classical electrodynamics. We then exploit the statistical-mechanical fluctuation-dissipation theorem to further obtain the Onsager symmetry relations and Kubo sum-rule frequency moments. Of special significance is the emergence of a variety of new Kramers-Kronig formulae andf-sum rules for the inverse dispersion tensor.Nomenclature E(k,) electric field intensity - Ê(k,) electric field in absence of plasma particles, - (k,) electric field due to the plasma particles (=E-Ê) - B(k,) magnetic induction - D(k,) electric induction - H(k,) magnetic field strength - B ₀ constant external magnetic field - A ₀ vector potential corresponding toB ₀ - (k,),j(k, co) charge and current densities due to the plasma particles - (k,),J(k,) charge and current densities of the external agency - (k,,B ₀) dielectric tensor of the plasma medium in the presence of B₀ - (k,,B ₀) diamagnetic tensor - (k, co,B ₀) (k,,B ₀) – 1, electric polarizability tensor - (k,,B ₀) magnetic polarizability tensor - (k,,B ₀) ordinary conductivity tensor - (k,,B ₀) external conductivity tensor - D(k,,B ₀) n²T–(k,,B ₀), dispersion tensor, where T=1-kk is the transverse projection tensor (k being the unit vector in the direction ofk) andn = kc/ the index of refraction - n²T – 1, = vacuum wave operator (value of D in vacuum) - 1/2( + ), Hermitian part of - ^{^} 1/2( – ), Anti-Hermitian part of a - , real and imaginary parts of a - R(r,t) dissipated power per unit volume of plasma - U total energy absorbed by the plasma - R(k,) E^*(k,) · (k,,b ₀) ·E(k,) corresponding spectral energy density - W(r,t) 1/2₀E²(r, 0 + (l/2₀) B²(r,t), field energy density - W(k,) 1/2₀E^*k,) ·E(k,) + (l/2₀)B ^*(k,) · B(k,), energy content in a certain domain of (k,)-space for a single mode - x _i,p _i,v _i coordinate, momentum, and velocity of ith electron - _i [1–(_i ²/c²)]^–1/2 - X _j,P _j,V _j coordinate, momentum, and velocity of jth ion - {A _q}, {E_q} field coordinates and momenta - j_k(t),J _k(t) perturbations in the microscopic electron and ion current densities due to the presence of the small external vector potential agencyâ(r,t) = (1/L³) â_k(t) expi k ·r - Liouville distribution function = ⁰ + - ⁰ macrocanonical distribution function characterizing the equilibrium state of the system in the infinite past - small perturbation due toA - H⁰ Hamiltonian of equilibrium system which includes interaction - H Hamiltonian for the interaction between the system and the small external perturbing agencyA - ⁰ = d^R()⁰ expectation value of any quantity over the equilibrium ensemble (d^R is an element of hypervolume in -phase space) - G(12) two-particle distribution function - F(1) one-particle distribution function - g(¦x₂ – x₁ ¦) [G(12)/F(1)F(2)] – 1, pair correlation function - N total number of electron in volume L³ - n ₀ equilibrium density (of electrons) - ^–1 temperature (in energy units) - ₀ (n₀e²/m₀)^1/2, equilibrium electron plasma frequency - _c ¦e ¦–B ₀/m, electron frequency - ^–1 ( ₀/n₀e²)^1/2, Debye length - ₀ (n₀Ze²/M₀)^1/2, equilibrium ion plasma frequency - _c ZeB₀/M, ion cyclotron frequency
