Shockley surface states for a graphite and diamond model with a delta function potential

The Shockley surface states problem was formulated for the Coulson graphite model and Hoerni diamond model with delta function potentials. It was shown that the solution of these problems can be reduced to the solution of analogous problems in the MO-LCAO method. A solution is given for one type of models. The analogy of both methods shows that the qualitative properties of Shockley surface states depend primarily on the geometry of the lattices.

Theory of percolation in fluids of long molecules

We use the reference interaction site model (RISM) integral equation theory to study the percolation behavior of fluids composed of long molecules. We examine the roles of hard core size and of length-to-width ratio on the percolation threshold. The critical density _c is a nonmonotonic function of these parameters exhibiting competition of different effects. Comparisons with Monte Carlo calculations of others are reasonably good. For critical exponents, the theory yields =2=2 for molecules of any noninfinite lengthL. WhenL is very large, the theory yields _cL ^–2. These predictions compare favorably with observations of the conductivity for random assemblies of conductive fibers. The threshold region where asymptotic scaling holds requires the correlation length (/ _c ) ^–v to be much larger thanL. Evidently, the range of densities in this region diminishes asL increases, requiring that density deviations from _c be no larger thanL ^–2. Otherwise, crossover behavior will be observed.     

The optical constants of single crystals of hexagonal selenium

The optical constants of single crystals of hexagonal selenium in the region of the intrinsic absorption edge in polarized light were investigated. The absorption edge for light polarized normal to the optical axis of the crystal is displaced towards longer wavelengths. The absorption maximum of hexagonal selenium for a wavelength of 0·6 is interpreted as the maximum corresponding to interaction between neighbouring chains and in connection with this the position of the absorption edge of different modifications of selenium is discussed.

Automatic measurement of the complex permittivity at millimeter wavelengths

A measuring system including an oversized cavity resonator operating in the TE₀₁ mode for the determination of the complex permittivity - j of low-loss liquids at frequencies of about 36 GHz is described. While is obtained by wavelength measurements in the filled and the empty resonator, is determined from the variation of the Q factor of the filled resonator with the length of the dielectric sample. The Q factors of values of about 2·10⁴ to 10⁵ can be measured automatically by means of a desk calculator which controls the frequency and collects the digitized values of the detector output voltage. By means of the calculator, the Q factors of the resonator are determined by fitting analytical (Lorentzian) resonance curves to the measurement data. and the Q factor for zero sample length are calculated according to Göttmann's methods.

Honeycomb domain structure

A theory is given of a new structure produced when demagnetizing uniaxial single crystals (e.g. magnetoplumbite) in a field normal to thec axis. The experimental results fully support the theory on the assumption that domain structures produced under normal conditions are metastable. Methods are given by which stable structures can be prepared from such metastable ones. On the basis of these results opinions are expressed as to the nucleation of plate and honeycomb structures, produced either by reducing the field from saturation or by cooling below the Curie point.

Long-range correlations at depinning transitions

Semi-infinite systems are considered with long-range surface fields B _z ^–(1+r) for large distancesz from the surface. The influence of such fields on the global phase diagram and on the critical singularities of depinning transitions is studied within Landau theory. For |B|0, the correlation length diverges as b ^–1/2 withb=|Bln|B^–(1+r). For finiteB, t ^v withv =(2+r)/(2+2r) wheret measures the distance from bulk coexistence. In the latter case, a Ginzburg criterion leads to the upper critical dimensiond ^*=(2+3r)/(2+r).

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).     

МОДЕЛИРОВАНИЕ ЭЛЕКТ РОННО-ОПТИЧЕСКИХ СИС ТЕМ С ОСЕВОЙ СИММЕТРИЕЙ П РИ ПОМОЩИ СЕТИ СОПРОТИВЛЕНИЙ

The paper explains the theory of modelling electrostatic fields by a resistance network. The conditions, which the resistance network must satisfy, are derived and the question of modelling electrodes of different shapes is solved. The finished network and the results obtained on it when modelling a jet for a linear h-f accelerator of electrons are described. Particular attention is paid to the influence of a space charge, the modelling of which is an advantage of this method.

First experiment to test whether space-time is flat. II. Effects of orbit

The gyroscope in an orbiting satellite will be acted on by additional gravitational fields due to the rotation of the earth and due to the orbital velocity of the satellite. According to special relativistic gravitational theory, we deduce _L ^(S) —the gyroscope's precession rate due to the orbital velocity—and _S ^(S) —the gyroscope's precession rate due to the earth's rotation in the polar orbit case. The results are _L ^(S) = (2/3) _L ^(G) , _S ^(S) = (3/2) cos (1 - sin² cos²)^1/2 _S ^(G) , where and are the gyroscope's polar angles, and _L ^(G) and _S ^(G) are the geodetic and frame-dragging precession rates predicted by general relativity, respectively.     

Theory of fluctuations in limit-cycles of second-order bifurcation type

The fluctuations in limit cycles of second-order bifurcation (transition from a stable to an unstable focus) are investigated near the bifurcation point _c, being an external control parameter. Two different methods are applied: a time- and space-dependent Fokker-Planck equation obtained from an ^1/2-expansion of the master equation ( being the volume) and a time- and space-dependent Langevin equation. Both methods give the same results. It is shown that the dependence of the radial correlation on ² = | – _c| and the time-behaviour of the phase correlation (ensemble dephasing) are determined by the dimensionality of space.     

The Sine-Gordon field theory model at α2=8π, the non-superrenormalizable theory

We study the Sine-Gordon field theory at ²=8. We prove that the theory is renormalizable but not superrenormalizable and we show how the perturbative renormalization procedure works in this case where the interaction is not polynomial. To go beyond the perturbative results we investigate the -functional equation for this theory and discuss in what sense at ²=8 the theory is lacking the asymptotic freedom and how it is asymptotic free for ²<8 in a appropriate region of the coupling constants.     

Enhancement of activated decay of metastable states by resonant pumping

We consider the effect of a high-frequency pumping cost on the escape rate of a classical underdamped Brownian particle out of a deep potential well. The energy dependence of the oscillation frequency(E) is assumed to be weak on the scale of thermal energy,_E(0)T(0)T/V₀ (0)[_E(0) is the derivative of(E) atE= 0,V ₀ is the barrier height,V ₀ T]. The quadratic-in- contribution to the decay rate is calculated in two different regimes: (1) for the case of resonance of the pumping frequency with the nth harmonic of the internal motion at an energye, when = n(e); (2) for a rollout region of the basic resonance near the bottom of the potential well, when ¦-(0)¦ and is the damping coefficient. In the latter case the absorption spectrum and the enhancement of the decay rate are calculated as functions of two reduced parameters, the anharmonicity of the potential,v _E (0)T/, and the resonance mismatch, [ —(0)]/. It is shown that the effect of the pumping increases with diminishing ¦v¦ and at small v is proportional tov ^–1. In this regime, the dependence on is stepwise: the pumping contribution is large for v > 0 and small for v < 0. In the frame of our theory, the decay rate is invariant against the simultaneous alternation of the signs of andv. The spectrum of the energy absorption has the standard Lorentzian shape in the absence of anharmonicity,v=0, and with increasing of ¦v¦ shifts and widens retaining its bell-shape form.     

Some consequences of the nonlocalizability of space-time events

Space-time events are characterized by their coordinatesx from the classical point of view. The same events from the quantum-mechanical point of view should be described rather by the expectation value of coordinates X. The expectation value could be evaluated by introducing a density operator(x,x) associated with the event. In the case where(x,x) cannot be described by delta functions strictly monochromatic radiation does not exist. If localizability is limited by Planck's length there are no narrower spectral lines than 2× 10^–29 E ² (eV) whereE stands for the photon energy.On leave from the Institute of Nuclear Physics, Kraków, ul.

Cubic nonlinear tensor of a ferromagnet

The nonlinear properties of a ferromagnet are studied. Many-time retarded Green's functions are used to obtain an expression for the cubic nonlinearity tensor with allowance for spatial dispersion of a uniaxial ferromagnet. The components due to the dipole-dipole interaction of the spins and also due to the anisotropy energy are found. A comparative analysis is made of the different components of the cubic nonlinearity tensor in both the nonresonance case and for various resonances, in particular when ₀, 3 2w₀, 2 ₀, 3 ₀ for the case in tripling of the frequency. Here, is the frequency of the incident wave and ₀ is the frequency of uniform precession. It is shown that in the non-resonance case the largest components are those that are nonvanishing when no allowance is made for spatial dispersion; in the resonance cases the largest components are those due to the dipole-dipole interaction of the ferromagnetism spins.Translated from Izvestiya VUZ.

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.
