Helium-3 adsorption refrigerator cooled with a closed-cycle cryocooler

A helium-3 adsorption refrigerator cooled with a pulse-tube cryocooler is developed. The refrigerator has two stages of adsorption pumping. The first stage is designed for the condensing and pumping of helium-4, whose cooling capacity is used for the condensation of helium-3. The second stage is designed for pumping helium-3. The final temperature reached by the refrigerator is 0.305 K. This temperature is retained for at least 24 h. The time required for helium recondensation and the obtainment of low temperature is 1.5 h. The cryostat is a self-contained instrument, as it contains no external gas-supply pipelines and the working gas is stored directly within the working volume of the refrigerator. The work is performed in the Frank Laboratory of Neutron Physics of the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research.

Beyond Einstein's radiation theory

Einstein's radiation mechanism is generalized to account for the possibility of population inversion by placing a nonlinear bound on the growth of an unstable perturbation. The nonstationary linear mechanism of relaxation to blackbody radiation below threshold is studied. The nonstationary photon distribution is the negative binomial distribution, and casting it as a law of error, for which the most probable value is the mean value, gives the expression for the statistical entropy. The second law yields a nonequilibrium generalization of Planck's radiation law. The nonlinear mechanism leading to the transformation from the negative binomial probability distribution, for chaotic light, to a Poisson probability distribution, for coherent light, is then analyzed. A criterion for lasing is given in terms of the chemical potential of radiation which is compared to the inequality for the transition from quantum to classical statistics.     

INHOMOGENEOUS WAVES IN ANISOTROPIC POROUS LAYER OVERLYING SOLID BEDROCK

The problem of propagation of inhomogeneous waves in anisotropic porous layered medium is studied using transfer matrix. Firstly, transfer matrix for an anisotropic porous layer is derived. Biot's poro-elastic theory is incorporated to model the acoustics of anisotropic porous layer. The interface between porous layer and elastic half-space is considered as imperfect and modified boundary conditions are applied for this more realistic situation. The theory of transfer matrix is used to derive the analytical expression for the surface impedance. Numerical computation of results is done for different degrees of bonding in the low as well as high-frequency range. In the first case, which is relevant to geophysical studies, the surface impedance is predicted for low-frequency range and surface impedance for second model is computed in high-frequency range. It is observed that loose bondedness is accompanied by the loss of energy at the interface. The technique of transfer matrix is utilized to compute the surface impedance in both cases. The role of surface impedance in seismological studies and in the study of composites is discussed.     

Design and optimization of photonic crystal based eight channel dense wavelength division multiplexing demultiplexer using conjugate radiant neural network

In this paper, two dimensional photonic crystal, based eight-channel demultiplexer is proposed and designed for DWDM applications. The performance parameters of the demultiplexer such as transmission efficiency, channel spacing, spectral line width, Q factor, and crosstalk have been evaluated. The proposed demultiplexer comprises of bus waveguide, drop waveguide and parellogram resonant cavity (PRC). The bus waveguide transmits light to the PRC and exits through respective drop waveguide. The PRC consists of a parellogram resonator with a nano ring cavity that is used for dropping eight specific wavelength for ITU-T G 694.1 standard with 50 GHz channel spacing. The circular ring resonator is placed above the PRC wherein a resonant air hole (Cr) is positioned for desired channel selection. The channel selection is done by altering the radius of the air hole. In addition, a conjugate radiant neural network is implemented for optimizing the radii of resonant air holes to select the required channel wavelength. The proposed device is very compact and it could be considered for implementing the photonic integrated circuits.     

Rigid piston approximation for computing the transfer function and angular response of a fiber-optic hydrophone

The transfer function of a fiber-optic hydrophone (FOH) is computed for various fiber core radii. The hydrophone is modeled as a rigid disk, with plane waves impinging at normal or oblique incidence. The total sound field is written as the sum of the incident field and the field diffracted from the hydrophone. The diffracted field is approximated by the field generated by a vibrating planar piston in an infinite rigid baffle. For normal incidence and a pointlike fiber core, an analytical solution is presented. For finite fiber core radii, and for oblique incidence, the transfer functions are computed numerically. The calculated transfer functions exhibit an oscillatory frequency dependency that is most pronounced for small fiber cores. The solution for a core radius of 2.5 microm can be very well approximated by the analytical solution for a pointlike core at frequencies of up to 30 MHz. The results for normal incidence can be directly employed to deconvolute ultrasonic pressure signals measured with an FOH. From the transfer functions for oblique incidence, the angular response of the hydrophone is calculated. The angular response obtained here differs significantly from the model commonly used for piezoelectric hydrophones. The effective hydrophone radius derived from the angular response shows a strong frequency dependency. For low frequencies, it is found to be larger than the outer fiber radius, whereas it generally lies between the outer radius and the fiber core radius for frequencies above 10 MHz.     

Time dependent Schrödinger equation on arbitrary structured grids: Application to photoionization

A systematic technique for conservatively discretizing the time dependent Schrödinger equation on an arbitrary structured grid is given. Spatial differencing is carried out by finite volumes, and temporal differencing is carried out semi-implicitly. It is shown that the resulting algorithm conserves probability to within a round-off error regardless of the grid geometry. The algorithm is efficient for both serial and parallel computation. The conservative nature of the algorithm, and its phase accuracy, are demonstrated for a bound state, and for a free state in an electromagnetic field. The ionization rate for a hydrogen atom in a strong electromagnetic field is computed, and compared with the rate from tunneling theory. The regime of validity of tunneling theory is clarified.

Influence of periodie and random two-dimensional nuclei distribution on the recrystallization kinetics

The recrystallization process is modeled by using both a periodic lattice and a random array of nuclei for the two-dimensional, instantaneous nucleation case. Recrystallization kinetics is obtained with analytical expressions for the periodic model and computer-generated results for the random situation. The resulting kinetics shows some disagreement with the classical Johnson-Mehl-Avrami-Kolmorogav kinetics, and stresses the fact that there is a finite time for the completion of the whole process. The time for completion is calculated for the two-dimensional and three-dimensional cases.     

Optimization of self-frequency doubling in periodically and quasi-periodically poled nonlinear crystals

The theory of self-frequency doubling in a periodically poled nonlinear crystal is generalized to the case of varied domain thickness (quasi-periodically poled crystals). A particular statistical model of quasi-periodicity is considered. The effect of quasi-periodicity on the output emission intensity is calculated. The degree of quasi-periodicity allowable for practical applications is estimated, and the advantages of quasi-periodically poled crystals are discussed. The problem of maximization of the output emission intensity for periodically and quasi-periodically poled crystals is considered. The dependence of the output emission intensity on the crystal length is investigated, and an upper estimate for the maximum intensity is obtained. A formula for the optimal reflection coefficient of the output mirror as a function of the crystal length is derived.

Electron scattering studies of DMS,DMDS and DMSO homologous series

The present paper reports ionisation, elastic and total cross section for the first three members of dimethyl sulphide, dimethyl disulphide and dimethyl sulphoxide family of molecules. The multi-scattering centre spherical complex optical potential formalism is applied for integral elastic and inelastic cross section calculations. From the inelastic part, ionisation cross section is derived using complex scattering potential-ionisation contribution method. The total cross section is then obtained from the sum of elastic and inelastic contributions. A reasonably good agreement is obtained for elastic cross section, wherever comparison is available. The ionisation and total cross section calculation for the complete set of molecules has been performed for the first time.     

Two-dimensional Schrödinger Hamiltonians with effective mass in SUSY approach

The general solution of SUSY intertwining relations of first order for two-dimensional Schrödinger operators with position-dependent (effective) mass is built in terms of four arbitrary functions. The procedure of separation of variables for the constructed potentials is demonstrated in general form. The generalization for intertwining of second order is also considered. The general solution for a particular form of intertwining operator is found, its properties—symmetry, irreducibility, and separation of variables—are investigated.     

The quantum electrodynamics of the nucleon

The Nuclear Force between a statistical assemblage of nucleon pairs is calculated directly for pseudo-scalar meson exchange. The Nucleon (proton) is treated as a particle with an extended structure. The model of the proton used is the one determined by high energy electron-proton scattering experiments.The self-energy process for such a proton is examined first for the emission and re-absorption of a photon. An appropriate photon propagator is derived for such a system using variational techniques. It is shown that the integrals that occur in the self-energy process converge without any of the difficulties associated with the point charge model. This shows the divergences in Quantum Electrodynamics (for nucleons) do not exist when nucleons are treated as particles with a structure.The pseudo-scalar meson propagator is derived using similar methods and the exchange force is calculated. It is shown that only certain diagrams need be considered when a stable nuclear bond is being calculated. The corrections to the Nuclear Force, which are self-energy processes involving emission and re-absorption of Virtual pseudoscalar mesons, are shown to converge for strong coupling.
