Conditional stability of multiple-charged solitons

The stability of the three-dimensional multiple-charged soliton solutions to the nonlinear field equations is studied by Lyapunov's method. It is proved that an absolutely stable soliton solution can not exist in any field model. By imposing the subsidiary condition ^pQ_i=0 (fixation of charges) we find a sufficient condition for stability of the stationary soliton which includes the inequality ^{k i} (Q ⁱ / ^k <0. An illustrative example is considered.     

Nelson's symmetry and the infinite volume behavior of the vacuum inP(φ)2

LetH _l be the Hamiltonian in aP()₂ theory with sharp space cutoff in the interval (–l/2,l/2). LetE _l =inf(H _l ), (l)=–E _l /l, and let _l be the vacuum forH _l . discuss properties of (l) and _l . In particular, asl, there are finite constants <0 and such that (l), ((l)–)l, and hence (l)=+/l+o(l ^–1). Moreover exp(–c ₁ l) _{l 1}exp(–c ₂ l) forc ₁,c ₂ positive constants, where _{l 1} is theL ¹(Q, d₀) norm of ₁ with respect to the Fock vacuum measure.

Gravitation and universal Fermi coupling in general relativity

The generally covariant Lagrangian densityG = + 2K _matter of the Hamiltonian principle in general relativity, formulated by Einstein and Hilbert, can be interpreted as a functional of the potentialsg _ikand of the gravitational and matter fields. In this general relativistic interpretation, the Riemann-Christoffel form _kl ⁱ = _kl ⁱ for the coefficients _kl ⁱ of the affine connections is postulated a priori. Alternatively, we can interpret the LagrangianG as a functional of , g_ik, and the coefficients _kl ⁱ . Then the _kl ⁱ are determined by the Palatini equations. From these equations and from the symmetry _kl ⁱ = _lk ⁱ for all matter fields with /=0 the Christoffel symbols again result. However, for Dirac's bispinor fields, / becomes dependent on the Dirac current, essentially with a coupling factor Khc. In this case, the Palatini equations define a new transport rule for the spinor fields, according to which a second universal interaction results for the Dirac spinors, besides Einstein's gravitation. The generally covariant Dirac wave equations become the general relativistic nonlinear Heisenberg wave equations, and the second universal interaction is given by a Fermi-like interaction term of the V-A type. The geometrically induced Fermi constant is, however, very small and of the order 10^–81erg cm³     

Some properties of topological geons

We investigate the Finkelstein-Misner geons for a non-simply-connected space-time manifold (M, g ₀). We use relations between different Lorentzian structures unequivalent tog ₀ and topological properties ofM given by the Morse theory. It implies that to some pieces of geons we have to associate Wheeler's worm-holes. Geons that correspond to time-orientable Lorentz structures are related tog ₀ by Morse functions that describe the attaching of a handle of index one. In the case of geons associated to time-nonorientable Lorentzian structures, appropriate handles are related to loops along which the notion of time reverses. If we assume electromagnetic properties of geons, then only four species, v, e, p, m, of different geons can exist and geon m has to decay according to mv+p+e.     

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.

Analytic study of power spectra of the tent maps near band-splitting transitions

Successive band-splitting transitions occur in the one-dimensional map x_i+1=g(x_i),i=0, 1, 2,... withg(x)=x, (0 x 1/2) –x +, (1/2 <x 1) as the parameter is changed from 2 to 1. The transition point fromN (=2ⁿ) bands to 2Nbands is given by=(2)^1/N (n=0, 1,2,...). The time-correlation function _i=x_ix₀/(x₀)²,x_i x_i–x_i is studied in terms of the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of the Frobenius-Perron operator of the map. It is shown that, near the transition point=2, _i–[(10–42)/17] _i,0-[(102-8)/51]_i,1 + [(7 + 42)/17](–1)ⁱe^–yi, where2(–2) is the damping constant and vanishes at=2, representing the critical slowing-down. This critical phenomenon is in strong contrast to the topologically invariant quantities, such as the Lyapunov exponent, which do not exhibit any anomaly at=2. The asymptotic expression for _i has been obtained by deriving an analytic form of _i for a sequence of which accumulates to 2 from the above. Near the transition point=(2)^1/N, the damping constant of _i fori N is given by _N=2(^N-2)/N. Numerical calculation is also carried out for arbitrary a and is shown to be consistent with the analytic results.     

The electroluminescence of ZnS-Cu,Mn

The brightness waves of ZnS-Cu, Mn phosphor were investigated and it was found that their shape changes from that characteristic for copper-activated phosphors to that characteristic for manganese-activated phosphors as a function of the magnitude of the voltage applied, the length of the pulses and the temperature. In order to explain the results it is assumed that simultaneously with the mechanism of electroluminescence, accepted for ZnS-Cu (ionization of activators; recombination and radiation delayed in phase compared with voltage), there exists an immediate recombination of the Cu activators in the barriers, which is accompanied by radiation in phase with the voltage.

Perturbations of flows on Banach spaces and operator algebras

For automorphism groups of operator algebras we show how properties of the difference _t – ' _t are reflected in relations between the generators , . Indeed for a von Neumann algebraM with separable predual we show that if _t – '_t 0.28 for smallt, then = 0(+)°^-1 where is an inner automorphism ofM and is a bounded derivation ofM. If the difference _t – ' _t =O(t) ast ; 0, then = + and if _t – ' _t 0.28 for allt then =. We prove analogous results for unitary groups on a Hilbert space andC ₀,C ₀ ^* groups on a Banach space.This paper subsumes an earlier work of the same title which appeared as a report from Z.I.F. der Universität BielefeldWith partial support of the U.S. National Science Foundation

Magnetic moments of proton drip-line nuclei13O and9C

The magnetic moments of the proton drip-line nuclei¹³O(I = 3/2^–,T _1/2 = 8.6 ms) and 9C(I = 3/2^–,T _1/2 = 126 ms) have been determined for the first time through the combined techniques of polarized radioactive nuclear beams and-NMR detection. The observed magnetic moments are ¦(¹³O)¦ = 1.3891 ±0.0003 _N and ¦(⁹C)¦ = 1.3914 ±0.0005 _N. Spin expectation values are deduced to be 0.76 and 1.44 for¹³O and⁹C, respectively. While the of¹³O is consistent with the systematics from isospinT= 1/2 mirror pairs, the of⁹C is unusually large, even far larger than the single particle value, = 1.     

Acoustomagnetoelectric current effects on mesoultrasound in anisotropic semiconductors

The acoustomagnetoelectric (AME) current effects on mesoultrasound in monopolar single-valley semiconductors with anisotropic scattering in arbitrary classical magnetic fields are computed analytically. The specimen is considered short-circuited along the q-wave vector of the ultrasound (US) wave. Two configurations are examined: 1) q is directed at an arbitrary angle 9 to the axis of highest order crystal symmetry C₆ (z axis), the y axis to the (q, C₆) plane, the magnetic field B lies in the (q, y) plane at an arbitrary angle to the vector q. Two transverse AME field components are calculated: along y and in the (q, C₆) plane. They express the Hall effects at mesoultrasound, the planar and normal, 2) q is directed along the y axis while B is in the (x, z) plane at an angle to the C₆(z) axis. The AME field component along B, the Grobner effect at mesoultrasound, is calculated. The dependence of the effects onB is studied and their estimate is given in weak and strong fields.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 7, pp. 57–61, July, 1989.     

Superconducting surface resistance of thin amorphous Ga films on metallic substrates

The surface resistance of a metal coated with amorphous superconducting films is investigated. With an improved microwave cryostat and a two layer model considering the influence of the substrate, much thinner films can be used than previously. As an example the surface resistance of amorphous Ga is determined. A set of parameters ₀/k _BT_c=2,27; _L=13,4 nm; ₀=223 nm andl=1,0 nm describes the temperature dependence independent of thickness. As expected a model of free electrons is in agreement with the experimental results. For crystalline-Ga ₀/k _B T _c =1,91; _L=24 nm; ₀=163 nm and a much larger mean free pathl=22 nm is found.     

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.

Possible generalization of Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics

With the use of a quantity normally scaled in multifractals, a generalized form is postulated for entropy, namelyS _q k [1 – _i=1 ^W p _i ^q ]/(q-1), whereq characterizes the generalization andp _i are the probabilities associated withW (microscopic) configurations (W). The main properties associated with this entropy are established, particularly those corresponding to the microcanonical and canonical ensembles. The Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics is recovered as theq1 limit.     

Universal expansion of the powers of a derivation

We give the expansion of the powers of the Lie operator = ⁱ _i in any dimension, where is either a smooth function or a formal power series over an infinite set of commutatives indeterminates. We describe an algorithm for computer treatment and we give, as an example, a table for the orders 1 to 6.     

Surviving extrema for the action on the twisted SU(∞) one point lattice

We give a simplified construction of twist eating configurations, based on a theorem due to Frobenius. These configurations are defined through the equation:U U U ⁺ U ⁺ =exp(2in /N) withU SU(N), =1 tod andn an antisymmetric matrix with integer entries. In the (Twisted)-Eguchi-Kawai model they yield extrema some of which survive forN. Comparison is made with the Monte Carlo data of the internal energy in the small coupling region.     

A study of the ϱ0 meson polarization in π− p reaction at 5 GeV/c

Experimental data on ⁰ meson polarization in ^– p reaction at 5 GeV/c are presented. Change in ⁰ meson polarization for mesons produced at smallP ² and atP ² 0·3 or produced in backward direction in CMS is demonstrated. Natural explanation of these phenomena is one pion exchange mechanism and mechanism of quark-antiquark annihilation as observed for ⁰ meson production in¯pp reactions.The authors are indebted to Ján Piút, Richard Lednický, V. S. Rumiancev and N. K. Koutsidi for discussions and critical comments.     

Correlation tensors of the blackbody radiation in rectangular cavities

Electromagnetic equilibrium fluctuations in finite cavities filled with a dissipative medium (dielectric function ()=+i) and bounded by walls of infinite conductivity are considered. Expanding the fields in terms of a complete and orthonormal set of functions and solving the Maxwell equations the response of the EM field to external forces (polarization and magnetization) is obtained. With the aid of the fluctuation dissipation theorem and the linear response functions the 2nd order correlation tensors of the EM field are derived.For rectangular cavities explicit considerations are made. In the case of transparent media (=0) the spectral energy density of the EM radiation is calculated.     

Isotope dependence of particle-decay rates of muonic molecular ions (d3,4Heμ) J=1 below (dμ)1s-3,4He threshold

Rates of particle-emitting decay of the resonant state of the muonic molecular ion (dHe) _J=1 lying below the (d)_1s-He threshold can decay to the d-He scattering state. The resonant state is estimated by scattering calculations with the non-adiabatic coupled-rearrangement-channel method. Strong isotope dependence of the decay rates of (d³He) _J=1 and (d⁴He) _J=1 is predicted, though the calculated radiative decay rates of the states are almost the same. In (d³He) _J=1, the particle decay width is three times larger than the radiative decay width, while the two types of decay widths are almost the same in (d⁴He) _J=1. This results in a strong hindrance of the branching ratio of the radiative decay of (d³He) _J=1 compared with the case of (d⁴He) _J=1. This is consistent with a recent observation of the radiative decay of the two molecular states.     

On nonlinear stationary half-space problems in discrete kinetic theory

We show that every steady discrete velocity model of the Boltzmann equation on the real line, _i·(d/dx)f ⁱ=C ⁱ(f), which satisfies anH-theorem and for which all _i0, has solutions on the half-line (0, ) which take prescribed non-negativef ⁱ(O) if _i>0 and approach a certain manifold of Maxwellians asx. Such solutions give the density distribution in a Knudsen boundary layer in the discrete velocity case.
