A contribution to the theory of X-ray monochromators

The characteristic function is introduced, describing completely the monochromating effect of monochromating units. Expressions for this function are presented for monochromating units frequently used. An example of computation for Johansson's unit shows the conditions in a special case. The curves indicating the shift of the wavelength centroid of monochromated radiation for crystals of different perfection allow conclusions to be drawn about the influence of the alignment of the crystal on precision measurements of lattice constants. The experiments verify the suggested model. The computations for a given experimental arrangement permit a simple determination of the effective breadth of the reflection curve, if a distance of two suitably chosen diffraction lines of a polycrystalline specimen is measured. Finally, it was found experimentally that a small elastic bending does not essentially alter the reflection curve of highly elastic and imperfect crystals unless macroscopic distortions are present.

Surface channeling of protons and electrons on reflection by a single crystal

Computer modeling is used to investigate the reflection of 0.67-MeV protons and 1-MeV electrons by the (110) face of an Au single crystal for angles of divergence < _cr of the incident beam with the direction 110 lying in the surface. The angular distributions and reflection coefficients of protons and electrons are compared. Several maxima are found in the angular distributions. In additon to the specular-reflection maximum at = there is a maximum at > for protons and a maximum at < for electrons. The maxima in the angular distributions are attributed to multiple scattering at atomic chains of the crystal surface. An analytic approximation of the reflection coefficient for protons K_cor() is given. The great contribution to the reflected flux from particles channeled in the surface layer allows it to be used for structural analysis of crystal surfaces.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 85–90, March, 1979.     

The Micro-Canonical Point Vortex Ensemble: Beyond Equivalence

The fluid limit N is constructed for a sequence of ensembles of N classical point vortices in a finite domain ² whose ensemble densities (w.r.t. Liouville measure) are Gaussian approximations to (E-H). Letting the variance 0 after N has been taken, one recovers the special class of nonlinear stationary Euler flows that is expected from the micro-canonical ensemble. The construction improves over previous ones which either had to regularize the logarithmic singularities of the point vortex Hamiltonian or had to assume equivalence of ensembles. In particular, nonequivalence between micro-canonical and canonical ensemble prevails for certain geometries where conditionally stable configurations with negative 'global vortex pair-specific heat' can and do exist in the micro-canonical but not in the canonical ensemble.     

Radiation losses in completely ionized plasma

The losses caused by bremsstahlung during electron-ion and electron-electron collisions in a completely ionized plasma (in Born's approximation) are calculated. The calculation can be carried out analytically for a sufficiently dilute plasma (plasma with infinitely large Debay-Hückel radius). This assumption is satisfied very well by the known classification to actual controlled thermonuclear reaction. A dependence of the formI=an ². (1+3/2), wherea=0·73×10^–16 MeV.cm³.sec^–1,n is the number of ions per cm³ and =kT/mc ², is determined for the amount of energy radiated from 1 cm³ of plasma per sec. In the relativistic temperature regionkTmc ² the influence of electron-electron collisions begins to predominate. A number of important results concerning radiation losses in relativistic plasma will be published in a later paper.

Photo-luminescence and growth defects in ZnS: Cu monocrystals

The paper describes microscopic investigation into the spectral distribution of photo-luminescence and its polarization on hexagonal ZnS monocrystals in relation to the structural defects of such crystals. These observations, as well as birefringent observations, show that the values of the birefringence and the degree of polarization in different stripes of the same crystal are the same within the limits of observational errors.

Continuum and discretum—Unified field theory and elementary constants

Unitary field theories and SUPER-GUT theories work with an universal continuum, the structured spacetime of R. Descartes, B. Spinoza, B. Riemann, and A. Einstein, or a (Machian ^(1–3) ) structured vacuum according the quantum theory of unitary fields (Dirac, ^(4,5) and Heisenberg ^(6–8) ). The atomistic aspect of the substantial world is represented by the fundamental constants which are invariant against all transformations and which depend on nothings (Planck ^(9–11) ). A satisfactory unitary theory has to involve these constants like the mathematical numbers. Today, Planck's conception of the three elementary constants , c, and G may be the key to general relativistic quantum field theory like unitary theory. However, the elementary constants are a question of measurement-theory, also.According to Popper's theory ^(12–16) of induction, such unitary theories are universal explaining theories. The fundamental constants involve the complementarity between the universal statements in unitary theory and the basic statements in the language of classical observables.     

BЛИЯHИE CBETA HA MOHOКPИCTAЛЛИЧECКИE ПЛACTИHКИ AgCl

The paper deals with the influence of light,=403 m, on the absorption of single-crystal plates of AgCl, grown by the capillary method. It was found that crystals with blue luminescence show no maximum in the region measured. For crystals with green luminescence a broad absorption maximum was found at – 590 m, which is partly bleached during further irradiation by light from the region of the absorption maximum. Measurements were preformed at room temperature.

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.

Radiative capture of slow neutrons on atomic nuclei

The energies and absolute intensities of gamma radiation from the radiative capture of thermal neutrons on S³³, Cl³⁶, K⁴⁰, Ca⁴¹, V⁵², Mn⁵⁶ and Hg²⁰⁰ nuclei were measured by means of a one-crystal scintillation spectrometer. The transitions measured in the energy interval 100–1200 keV are mostly transitions between the lowest excited states of the nuclei studied.

     

Stationary solutions of the bogoliubov hierarchy equations in classical statistical mechanics. 3

We continue the analysis of the conjugate equation for the generating function of a Gibbs random point field corresponding to a stationary solution of the classical BBGKY hierarchy. This equation was established and partially investigated in the preceding papers under the same title. In the present paper we reduce a general theorem about the form of solutions of the conjugate equation to a statement which relates to a special case where the interacting particles constitute a quasi—one dimensional configuration.     

The probability distribution of the velocities of gas molecules after collision with a rapidly moving rigid body

The above problem is met, for example, in the case of the collision of molecules of the atmosphere with an artificial earth satellite and leads to the problem of determining the probability distribution of the absolute value of the vector sum of a constant vector and a Maxwell vector (the latter being a vector, whose rectangular components are distributed normally, with the same standard deviation and mean value zero). The resultant probability density is given by equation (18), the complement to the distribution function by (24), the mean value by (27) and the variance by (31). These results are obtained by transforming the corresponding three-dimensional normal distribution to spherical co-ordinates and integrating over the co-ordinate angles and , which yields the required probability density; the other results are then obtained from it by the usual methods.

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.     

Antibound states for a class of one-dimensional Schrödinger operators

Let (x) be the Dirac's delta,q(x)L ¹ (R)L ² (R) be a real valued function, and , R; we will consider the following class of one-dimensional formal Schrödinger operators on . It is known that to the formal operator may be associated a selfadjoint operatorH(,) onL ²(R). Ifq is of finite range, for >0 and || is small enough, we prove thatH(,) has an antibound state; that is the resolvent ofH(,) has a pole on the negative real axis on the second Riemann sheet.Work done while the author was supported by an undergraduate fellowship of the (Italian) National Research Council (CNR).     

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).

Resonant magnetopolaron effects in parabolic quantum wells in a tilted magnetic field

We study the resonant magnetopolaron effects in parabolic quantum wells in a tilted magnetic field. The renormalization of the first excited level, which is resonant with the ground state level plus one longitudinal-optical phonon is calculated at the resonance using an improved resonance approximation to be E= where is the polaron coupling constant. The exponent and the factor are calculated in dependence on the tilt angle of the magnetic field and the confinement energy.
