Weakly Bound States in Light Hypernuclei

From the viewpoint of critical stability, we discuss the three- and four-body structure of ⁶He, ⁷He, ⁴He, and ⁴H. With the + + N three-body model, ⁶He is found to have a three-layer structure of the matter distribution: core, a skin and neutron halo. Also the level structure of ⁷He with the three-body model of ⁵He + n + n is predicted. This stimulates a new study of neutron-rich and proton-rich hypernuclei. By performing a four-body calculation with both NNN and NNN channels and with both NN and NNN channels, we show that the N-N and -N couplings are very important in critical stability of few-body hypernuclear systems.     

On the asymptotics of occurrence times of rare events for stochastic spin systems

We consider translation-invariant attractive spin systems. LetT _,x ^v be the first time that the average spin inside the hypercube reaches the valuex when the process is started from an invariant measure with density smaller thanx. We obtain sufficient conditions for (1) ¦¦^–1 logT _,x ^v (x) in distribution as ¦¦ , and ¦¦^–1 logT _,x ^v (x) as ¦¦ , where (x):= –lim ¦¦^–1 log {(average spin inside ) x. And (2)T _,x ^v /ET _,x ^v converges to a unit mean exponential random variable as ¦¦ . Both (1) and (2) are proven under some type of rapid convergence to equilibrium. (1) is also proven without extra conditions for Ising models with ferromagnetic pair interactions evolving according to an attractive reversible dynamics; in this case is a thermodynamic function. We discuss also the case of finite systems with boundary conditions and what can be said about the state of the system at the timeT _,x ^v .On leave from São Paulo University.     

Bound on the mass gap for finite volume stochastic ising models at low temperature

We consider a sequence of finite volume Z ^d ,d2, reversible stochastic Ising models in the low temperature regime and having invariant measures satisfying free boundary conditions. We show that associated with the models are random hitting times whose expectations, regarded as a function of , grow exponentially in ||( ^d-1)/d ; moreover, the mass gaps for the models shrink exponentially fast in ||( ^d-1)/d . A geometrical lemma is employed in the analysis which states that if a Peierls' contour is sufficiently small relative to the faces of , then the fraction of the contour tangent to the faces is less than a constant smaller than one.     

Particle polarizations in decays of5HeΛ and4HΛhypernuclei

Nucleon polarizations are examined in the hypernucleus decays⁵He, ⁴He + p + _–,⁴H, ³H + p + _–, and⁴H, ³He + n + _–. The effect of the strong interaction in the final state is taken into account. A significant role is predicted for the resonance interaction in the p-⁴He system in the formation of the proton polarization in the⁵He decay. It is also shown that in the⁴H, ³H + p + _– decay the proton-polarization components should attain significant magnitudes, while in the charge-exchange decay⁴H, ³He + n + _–, the neutron polarization is expected to be not too large.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 10, pp. 100–103, October, 1988.     

Nontrivial extensions of a representation of the Poincaré group with mass and helicity zero by its tensorial product

Let U(a, ) be a representation of the Poincaré group with mass and helicity zero, realized in the space of C -functions with compact support on ³, without the origin. Let U ⁽²⁾(a, ) denote the tensorial product of U(a, ) by itself. We explicitly determine the cocycles of extension of U(a, ) by U ⁽²⁾(a, ) and we prove that the nontrivial cohomology is indexed by (u(),),u()D ¹ _]0,3\,.     

On the equivalence of boundary conditions

We show that ifb andb are two boundary conditions (b.c.) for general spin systems on ^d such that the difference in the energies of a spin configuration in ^d is uniformly bounded, |H _,b ()–H _,b()|C < , then any infinite-volume Gibbs states and obtained with these b.c. have the same measure-zero sets. This implies that the decompositions of and into extremal Gibbs states are equivalent (mutually absolutely continuous). In particular, if is extremal,=. Application of this observation yields in an easy way (among other things) (a) the uniqueness of the Gibbs states for one-dimensional systems with forces that are not too long-range; (b) the fact that various b.c. that are natural candidates for producing non-translation-invariant Gibbs states cannot lead to such an extremal Gibbs state in two dimensions.Supported in part by NSF Grant PHY 78–15920 and by the Swiss National Foundation For Scientific Research.     

Double hypernuclei and the Λ-Λ interaction

The binding energy of the double hypernucleus Be¹⁰ analyzed using an -particle model. A relationship is found between B, the binding energy of two -particlcs, and ¯V, the - potential integral. For the experimental value B = 17.5 Me V ¯V varies from 250 to 850 MeV-F³ according to the form of the - potential used.In conclusion, I wish to thank S. N. Kryuchkova for carrying out these calculations on a Minsk-2 electronic computer. I also wish to thank my senior colleague, V. A. Filimonov, for his support in the completion of the present work.     

Absolute Continuity of Vitali–Hahn–Saks Measure Convergence Theorems

In this paper, we prove the following improved Vitali–Hahn–Saks measure convergence theorem: Let (L, 0, 1) be a Boolean algebra with the sequential completeness property, (G, ) be an Abelian topological group, be a nonnegative finitely additive measure defined on L, {_n: n N} be a sequence of finitely additive s-bounded G-valued measures defined on L, too. If for each a L, {_n(a)}_{n N} is a -convergent sequence, for each nN, when { (a)} convergent to 0, {_n(a)} is -convergent, then when { (a)} convergent to 0, {_n(a)} are -convergent uniformly with respect to nN

The theory and structure of the temperature image

The paper describes the theory of the formation of a temperature image when there are large temperature differences and introduces the concept of temperature distortion of an image. It also deals with the geometrical distortion of the temperature image by the longitudinal thermal conductivity of the receiver layer and gives a solution of the corresponding differential equation of the temperature image for the case of a general linear line test and general circular concentric test. Equations are derived for the temperature distributions of the temperature images of some optical lineated and circular test objects and their geometrical distortion due to the thermal conductivity of the receiver layer is investigated.

     

Baryon decays and gamma-spectroscopy of hypernuclei

The applicability of (K ^–,^–) - and (K ^–,^– N)-reactions on^13,14C and^14,15N nuclei to the study of -transitions in primary and daughter -hypernuclei is discussed. The intensity of -deexcitation of ¹³C state |S ¹²C(15·11 MeV; 1⁺1): 1/2⁺ has been shown to be comparable with the intensity of baryon decay. Isospin selection rules are used to distinguish excitation energy ranges of primary hypernuclei, where the identification of the secondary -lines is probable.Presented at the symposium Mesons and Light Nuclei, Bechyn, Czechoslovakia, May 27–June 1, 1985.     

Λ-d Scattering

A three-particle variational calculation of the cross sections and phases of elastic -d scattering in the doublet and quartet states with zero orbital angular momentum is carried out in the energy range from 0 to 20 MeV (laboratory system of coordinates). The calculation is carried out with semirealistic N-N Afnan-Tang potentials and -N potent: —N, which describe -p scattering correctly, as well as the binding energy of the hyperfragments ⁵ He, ¹³ C (within the scope of the + core model), and ³ H (considered as a three-body system).Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 9, pp. 114–118, 1981.     

Widths in the conversion of Σ and Ξ hyperons in nuclear matter

The widths of the conversion processes N, N in nuclear mattter were calculated based on the model of single-boson exchange. It was established that the conversion width for is significantly reduced by the interference of the contributions of separate mesons to the conversion amplitude. The conversion width obtained for in nuclear matter turned out to be less than 1 MeV.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 79–84, March, 1988.     

Uniqueness of gibbs fields via cluster expansions

For the unbounded spin systems one cannot get cluster expansion if there exist large enough boundary values. A simple idea to avoid these difficulties is to prove that with probabilityp 1 when ^v there is a large subvolume of such that on all spin values do not exceed some fixed number. This gives a new method to prove uniqueness results for the unbounded spin systems generalizing some results of Refs. 1 and 2. The formulations of these results are in Section 1; the proofs are in Section 2.     

Debye screening for two-dimensional Coulomb systems at high temperatures

The grand canonical ensemble of a two-dimensional Coulomb system with±1 charges is proved to have screening phenomena in its high-temperature region. The Coulomb potential in a finite region is assumed to be (–)^–1, where is the Laplacian with zero boundary conditions on. The hard-core condition is not assumed. The model is set up by separating (–)^–1 into a shortrange part and a long-range part depending on a parameter. The self-energies are subtracted only for the short-range part and therefore a choice of is a choice of subtraction of self-energies. The method of proof is in general the same as that of Brydges-Federbush Debye screening, except that here a modification for the short-range part of the potentials is needed.     

Meyer's concept of quasicrystal and quasiregular sets

This paper relates two mathematical concepts of long-range order of a set of atoms , each of which is based on restrictions on the set of interatomic distances –. A set in ⁿ is aMeyer set if is a Delone set and there is a finite setF such that . Meyer proposed that such sets include the possible structures of quasicrystals. He obtained a structure theory for such sets, which reformulates results that he obtained in harmonic analysis around 1970, and which relates these sets to cut-and-project sets. In geometric crystallography V.I. Galiulin introduced the concept ofquasiregular set, which is a set such that both and – are Delone sets. This paper shows that these two concepts are identical.     

A study of the influence of the asymmetry of the Kα1 X-ray emission line of cobalt and copper on accurate measurements of lattice parameters

By accurate measurements of the lattice parameter of aluminium, silver and gold by K ₁ radiation of copper and cobalt it is proved that the values determined by the radiation of cobalt are systematically lower than those determined by the radiation of copper. A semiquantitative analysis of the influence of spectral asymmetry on the determination of the parameter from X-ray diffraction lines is carried out and it is proved that this influence is defined not only by the index of asymmetry of the emission line but also by the broadening of the corresponding diffraction line. From this analysis it follows that the differences in the parameter measured when using radiation of cobalt and copper, can be explained by the influence of the spectral asymmetry of the emission lines K ₁ of these radiations.

Nontrivial extensions of a massless representation with definite helicity of the Poincaré group in 3+1 dimensions by the tensor product of two other massless representations with definite helicity

Let U _n (a, ) be a massless, helicity n/2, representation of the Poincaré group in 3+1 dimensions. U _n (a, ) is realized in an adapted nuclear space D _n. We explicitly determine the various classes of cohomology for the extension of U _n (a, ) by U _n1 (a, ) U _n2 (a, ).     

Meson decays of hypertritium

Using ³ H and³He wave functions found by multiparameter variation calculations with N-potentials consistent with fundamental hypernuclear data and Afnan-Tang and Malfiet-Tjon type NN-potentials, the fraction of two particle ^–-decays in the total number of ^–-decays in ³ H is calculated and the ³ H lifetime is estimated. The results obtained are compared with experimental data on decay and binding energy of ³ H.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 3, pp. 44–48, March, 1988.     

Charge Fluctuations in the Two-Dimensional One-Component Plasma

We study, via computer simulations, the fluctuations in the net electric charge in a two-dimensional, one component plasma (OCP) with uniform background charge density –e in a region inside a much larger overall neutral system. Setting e=1, this is the same as the fluctuations in N , the number of mobile particles of charge e. As expected, the distribution of N has, for large , a Gaussian form with a variance which grows only as ^||, where || is the length of the perimeter of . The properties of this system depend only on the coupling parameter =kT, which is the same as the reciprocal temperature in our units. Our simulations show that when the coupling parameter increases, ^() decreases to an asymptotic value ^()^(2)/2 which is equal (or very close) to that obtained for the corresponding variance of particles on a rigid triangular lattice. Thus, for large , the characteristic length _L=2^/ associated with charge fluctuations behaves very differently from that of the Debye length, _D1/ , which it approaches as 0. The pair correlation function of the OCP is also studied.
