Equilibrium state of toroidal electron beam

The paper deals with the collective behaviour of electrons which rotate in a magnetic field used in a betatron. It is shown experimentally that there exists strong interaction between the electrons, which leads to the rapid formation of the equilibrium state with characteristic distribution of the charge density in the cross-section of the toroidal beam. The corresponding relaxation time is of the order of 1 sec. A statistical theory of the equilibrium beam is elaborated. Its main result is that the effective radius of the beam is a function of two parameters, one of which is proportional to the thermal energy of the electrons and the other to the perveance of the beam. The charge contained in a toroidal beam of given effective cross-section is equal to the product of the charge the beam would contain at zero temperature and a coefficient, which is a function of the temperature of the beam. Its value is unity at zero temperature and rapidly decreases with increasing temperature. The cause of cooling of the beam is shown.

The influence of compression on the absorption of AgBr single crystals

The influence of compression on the edge of self absorption of AgBr single crystals was studied. The measurements were performed at a temperature of –180°C. The shift of the edge of self absorption was studied both in the field of elastic and plastic deformations. The shift of the absorption edge towards the UV end of the spectrum was determined in the field of elastic deformations and towards the i.r. end in the field of plastic deformations. After the ending of the deformation and after unloading the crystal the return of the absorption edge towards the original position was observed.

The effect of oxygen on the electric conductivity of a cuprous oxide single crystal

The effect of an excess of oxygen on the electric conductivity of a pre-illuminated and heated single crystal of Cu₂O is investigated. It is found that the influence of illumination on the electric conductivity, together with the concentration of impurities, increases with increasing oxygen pressure during annealing.

A contribution to the theory of ferromagnetic resonance at high power levels

The instability of spin waves at ferromagnetic resonance is discussed. An equation of the stationary state of spin wavesk0 is derived by means of the quantum theory of spin waves. It is shown when discussing this equation that the concept of the critical uniform precession angle may be obtained when using an approximation which neglects the action of spin wavesk0 backward on their own excitation. We believe we are justified in supposing that, due to this effect, a stable stationary state can exist even above the critical amplitude of uniform precession, given by theories up to now.

Change in primary extinction during decomposition of supersaturated solid solution II. Al-Cu 4% alloy-formation of G.P. zones

The change in integrated intensity of the (200) reflections of a solid solution during the formation of G.P. zones was measured and compared with the change in the character of the diffuse streaks corresponding to them. It was found that the. formation of G.P. zones does not lead to a decrease in primary extinction despite the great changes in the distribution of the copper atoms. It was shown that the formation of a precipitate accompanied by the formation of crystallographically incoherent boundaries greatly decreases the primary extinction.

Changes in EPR spectrum of free radical species inγ-irradiated polyformaldehyde

We have found that gamma-irradiated polyformaldehyde does not exhibit the effect of the disappearance of the hyperfine structure of EPR spectrum as a function of the dose or the time passed since the end of irradiation, as was found earlier for a group of polymers having only C-C-C-C-atoms in the polymer chain. This difference in the change in the EPR of the polyformaldehyde (PFA) spectrum compared with the polymers with a -C-C-C-C- chain is explained by the impossibility of forming a conjugate double bond in the -C-O-C-O- chain in PFA.

A possible test of quantum electrodynamics by means of polarization effects in electron-nucleon scattering

The differential cross-section is given for the electromagnetic scattering of polarized relativistic electrons on polarized nucleons. The finite size of each particle is taken into account by means of two form-factors. The effect of the possible non-punctiform structure of the electron on the polarization effects in scattering is discussed. It is shown that the internal structure of the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron would show itself in the cross-section by terms depending on the transversal polarization of the incident electrons.

The complex conductivity of the plasma of a d-c glow discharge in Ne

In paper [1] Fang derived an expression for the complex conductivity of plasma assuming that the distribution function of the electrons is Maxwellian and the collision frequency is directly proportional to their velocity. Since the assumptions are approximately satisfied in the positive column of a d-c glow discharge in Ne, the applicability of Fang's relation is investigated for this case.

The quantum efficiency of the internal photo-electric effect in indium antimonide

A method is described for measuring the relative quantum efficiency of the internal photo-electric effect in semi-conductors by simultaneously measuring the photo-magnetoelectric and photo-conductive effect. The results of measurements on indium antimonide are given. The quantum efficiency begins to increase if the energy of the photon exceeds 0·47 eVat room temperature. The quantum efficiency as a function of the energy of the photon is analysed on the basis of the conception of impact ionization and it is shown that a study of the structure of this curve can supply information on the, band structure of a semi-conductor in the region of high energies of electrons and holes.

The local sensitivity of photo-multiplier photo-cathodes

The influence of the non-uniform distribution of the sensitivity of a photo-multiplier photo-cathode on the spectrum shape of the output pulses from a scintillation detector is studied. Methods of scanning the local sensitivity and determining its distribution function are described. The theory was compared qualitatively with measurement on a slow-neutron detector from a mixture of zinc sulphate and boric acid.

     

A note on the Watanabe theory of weak interactions

It is shown that according to the Watanabe theory of weak interactions a resonant scattering of electrons by protons must take place. The resonant energy depends on the massm _B of the intermediate boson. Form _B=2300m _e this energy is about 213 MeV in the centre of the mass system (c. m. s.). The energy width at resonance is 1·4 MeV.

An interpretation of the conditions for the existence of Shockley surface states

A study is made of the Shockley surface states in a linear chain of equal atoms, joined by alternately strong bonds. If the simple MO LCAO method is used, which considers the exchange integrals between nearest neighbours and next nearest neighbours, we get the surface states for a semi-infinite chain if the stronger bond is interrupted. The connection between Shockley and Tamm surface states is shown and the hypothesis is put forward that the condition for the existence of Shockley surface states has a generally simple physical interpretation, the validity of which is proved on the models of a semi-infinite crystal studied up to now.

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.
