Generation of Spatially Coherent Radiation in Free-Electron Lasers with Two-Dimensional Distributed Feedback

We study the possibility of using two-dimensional distributed feedback (DF) to generate spatially coherent radiation of ribbon and hollow relativistic electron beams whose transverse dimensions exceed the wavelength by several orders of magnitude. Such a feedback can be realized in planar and coaxial two-dimensional Bragg resonators with a two-period corrugation of their side walls. This corrugation gives rise to additional transverse (with respect to the reciprocal motion of the electrons) fluxes of electromagnetic energy which synchronize emission from different parts of the electron beam. Simulations of the onset of autooscillations in free-electron lasers (FELs) with a two-dimensional DF show the possibility of obtaining single-mode monochromatic coherent generation by beams with transverse dimensions up to 10²-10³ wavelengths. We also analyze the use of hybrid resonators composed of two-dimensional input and one-dimensional output Bragg mirrors. In such a scheme, the two-dimensional mirror ensures synchronization of the emission perpendicular to the electron beam, while reflection from the output one-dimensional mirror is sufficient for the self-excitation of the generator. In the case of a system closed in the transverse direction, such a scheme permits one to reduce significantly the ohmic losses resulting from the electromagnetic fluxes locked in the transverse direction. It is shown that the two-dimensional DF can also be used to synchronize radiation in a multibeam generator consisting of planar FEL modules fed by a ribbon electron beam and coupled via the transverse electromagnetic-energy fluxes which are formed by two-dimensional Bragg structures. The experimental studies aimed at realization of ultrahigh-power FELs with a two-dimensional DF are discussed.     

Melnikov's criterion for nondifferentiable weak-noise potentials

The stationary probability density of Fokker-Planck models with weak noise is asymptotically of the form exp[–1 /(q)]. If is smooth, it satisfies a Hamilton-Jacobi equation at zero energy and can be interpreted as the action of an associated Hamiltonian system. Under this assumption, has the properties of a Liapounov function, and can be used, e.g., as a thermodynamic potential in nonequilibrium steady states. We consider systems having several attractors and show, by applying Melnikov's method to the associated Hamiltonian, that in general is not differentiable. A small perturbation of a model with differentiable leads to a nondifferentiable . The method is illustrated on a model used in the treatment of the unstable mode in a laser.

Study of magnetic after-effect in magnesium manganese ferrites

The magnetic after-effect caused by the diffusion of electrons was studied in detail in MnMg ferrites of the series Mg _x Mn_1.15–x Fe_1.85O₄₊ ; the comparative measurements were also carried out on a sample of MgFe₂O₄₊₍<0). By combining the two methods, (a) investigation of the disaccommodation of initial permeability at different temperatures and (b) measurement of the displacement of the maximum of the temperature dependence tan with the frequency, it was possible to study the relaxation processes whose time constants lay between 0.5 sec and several hours, or between 10^–4 to 10^–7 sec. It was found that the processes taking place at low temperatures and studied by method (a) differ from those observed at high temperatures by method (b), particularly in the lower activation energies and greater dispersion of the time constants. In addition to these two main relaxation processes a weak relaxation superposed over the main disaccommodation was found in ferrites with non-zero content of manganese. An analysis of the intensity of different relaxation effects showed the participation of Mn ions in these relaxation effects and it was found that both main relaxations are probably equivalent as regards the final steady state, to the creation of which they lead; they differ however in the mechanism of electron diffusion by which this state is realized. The main features of the different diffusion mechanisms are discussed.

Über die an „Schwachen“ Grenzflächen Entstehenden Kopfwellen

Zusammenfassung In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden die Kopfwellen untersucht, die beim Auffallen einer harmonischen Schall-Kugelwelle auf die Ebene Grenzfläche zwischen zwei flüssigen Medien entstehen. Vorausgesetzt wird, daß die Grenzfläche schwach ist, d. h. daß die Geschwindigkeit der Schallwellen im Medium mit der Erregungsquelle nur um weniges kleiner ist als die Geschwindigkeit der Schallwellen im Medium ohne die Quelle.

Influence of oxygen content on electric and thermoelectric properties of ternary system Bi₂Te_3–x Se _x

A study is made of the influence of oxygen, contained in the semi-conducting system Bi₂Te_3–x Sé _x , on the electric and thermoelectric properties. It is shown that the addition of oxygen to the prepared samples Bi₂Te_2.4Se_0.6 causes a decrease in electric conductivity while the thermoelectric force remains unchanged. This influence is connected with a decrease in the mobility of the electrons but their concentration is not influenced by the presence of oxygen. Conclusions are reached as to the influence of oxygen on the efficiency of the conversion of thermal energy into electric energy and vice versa.

Complementary influence of electric and magnetic fields on the sample voltage oscillations ofP-type ultrapure germanium

We report on a previously not observed behaviour of oscillations of the voltage over a hyperpure germanium sample, when increasing the sample current from 0.05 to 13 A, for a number of transverse magnetic fields ranging from 697 to 1746 gauss. The sample temperature was 7.54 K±0.02 K. For each magnetic field the first observed peaks in the frequency spectrum of the sample voltage go to chaos by the period-doubling route and simultaneously shift to lower frequencies (first scenario). Superimposed upon this chaotic spectrum a new peak emerges, which again shifts to lower frequencies with increasing sample current (second scenario). A complementary effect of the sample current and the magnetic field is detected for four properties: firstly, the sudden onset of high resistance in the current versus voltage diagram, secondly, the transition between the two frequency scenarios described above, thirdly the presence of certain frequencies in the sample voltage spectra and fourthly the occurrence of an amplitude maximum for the principal frequency of the first scenario. It is shown that the first two transitions are interrelated.

Quantum Mayer Graphs for Coulomb Systems and the Analog of the Debye Potential

Within the Feynman–Kac path integral representation, the equilibrium quantities of a quantum plasma can be represented by Mayer graphs. The well known Coulomb divergencies that appear in these series are eliminated by partial resummations. In this paper, we propose a resummation scheme based on the introduction of a single effective potential that is the quantum analog of the Debye potential. A low density analysis of shows that it reduces, at short distances, to the bare Coulomb interaction between the charges (which is able to lead to bound states). At scale of the order of the Debye screening length ^–1 _D, approaches the classical Debye potential and, at large distances, it decays as a dipolar potential (this large distance behaviour is due to the quantum nature of the particles). The prototype graphs that result from the resummation obey the same diagrammatical rules as the classical graphs of the Abe–Meeron series. We give several applications that show the usefulness of to account for Coulombic effects at all distances in a coherent way.

Hermiticity of Quantum Observables Versus Commutation Relations

In order to obtain sum rules and spectral representations the Hermiticity property , A = A, of observables is used. It is shown that for certain and the property turns out to be inconsistent with the commutation relations that contain A. The known Schwinger paradox is explained by this inconsistency.     

Random and cooperative sequential adsorption on infinite ladders and strips

We analyze various processes where particles are added irreversibly and sequentially at the sites of infinite ladders or broader strips (i.e., on terraces) of adsorption sites. For sufficiently narrow strips or ladders, exact solution in closed form is possible for a variety of processes. Often this is most naturally achieved by mapping the process onto an equivalent one-dimensional process typically involvingcompetitive adsorption. We demonstrate this procedure for sequential adsorption with nearest-neighbor exclusion on a 2× square ladder. For other select processes on strips slightly too broad for exact solution, almost exact analysis is possible exploiting an empty-site shielding property. In this way, we determine a jamming coverage of 0.91556671 for random sequential adsorption of dimers on a 2× square ladder. For broader strips, we note that the complexity of these problems quickly approaches that for × lattices.

Asymptotic behaviour of spin-momentum distribution observables for fermion fields with cut-off self-coupling

In a previous paper asymptotic creation and annhilation operatorsa _± ^# have been constructed by the Kato-Mugibayashi method from the creation and annihilation operatorsa ^# for spin 1/2 fields with an interaction Hamiltonian density which is an evendegree polynomial in the field with ultra-violet cut-off and its derivatives. For any eigenvector of the total HamiltonianH=H ₀+H _I partial isometries _± have been defined so thata _± ^# equal _± a ^# *_± on the ranges _± of _±. Since the existence of a groundstate ofH has been proved, the existence of at least one pair _± follows. The purpose of this paper is to show that for any _± orthogonal to the distribution of spins and momenta of the interacting Schrödinger states exp[–itH]_± approaches fort the distributions of spins and momenta of the free state exp[–itH ₀] if a wave-amplitude renormalization is carried out in _±. This is achieved by studying the expectation values of the operators in themaximally abelian W*-algebra generated by operators of the form a*a, in terms of whichany information about spins and momenta can be expressed.Supported in part by the National Research Council of Canada.
