Failure of the collinear expansion in the calculation of the induced gluon emission

The collinear expansion is demonstrated to fail in the case of the gluon emission from a fast quark produced in eA deep inelastic scattering. In this approximation, the N = 1 rescattering contribution to the gluon spectrum vanishes. It has been shown that the higher-twist approach by X. N. Wang and X. Guo, Nucl. Phys. A 696, 788 (2001) and B. W. Zhang and X. N. Wang, Nucl. Phys. A 720, 429 (2003) based on the collinear expansion is wrong. The nonzero gluon spectrum obtained in those works is a consequence of an unjustified neglect of some important terms in the collinear expansion.

The electronic field shift factor of the 4s2S1/2−4p2PJ transitions in CaII

The isotope shifts (IS) of the resonance lines 4s²S_1/2–4p²P_Jin CaII (seven isotopes) have been measured by fast ion beam collinear laser spectroscopy (FIBCLS) with non-optical detection of the resonant laser-ion interaction. The electronic field shift factorF was derived from the experimental IS via a King plot procedure using the mean square nuclear charge radii from muon spectroscopy andelectron scattering. TheJ-independent resultF=–283(6) Mhz/fm² was obtained. TheF-value resulting from extensive many body perturbation theory (MBPT) calculations, recently performed by Märtensson-Pendrill et al., is in excellent agreement with the experimental value, confirming the reliability of the MBPT procedure.     

Collinear fast atomic-beam laser spectroscopy at riken garis/igisol

We have constructed a fast atomic-beam collinear laser spectroscopy system connected to the on-line isotope separator facility GARIS/IGISOL at RIKEN. This system is potentially powerful in studying refractory elements. To test the system, an off-line collinear experiment was made on stable Hf isotopes produced by means of laser ablation technique. For production of radioactive Hf isotopes, the use of the inverse kinematics of a fusion reaction,⁹Be(¹⁶⁶Er,xn)^175-x Hf, was investigated. The radioactive isotope¹⁶⁹Hf was successfully extracted from GARIS/IGISOL and accelerated up to 30 keV.     

Efficiency and temporal response of crystalline Kerr media in collinear optical Kerr gating

Optical Kerr gating is widely used in ultrafast measurements ranging from pulse characterization to spectroscopy and microscopy. We examined the efficiency and the temporal response of three cubic lattice Kerr media, YAG, GGG and BGO, and compared them with the well studied fused silica (fast response, low efficiency) and STO (high efficiency, slow response). YAG and GGG emerged as superior materials for ultrafast spectroscopy and microscopy applications thanks to their fast Kerr response and considerably higher gating efficiency than silica at low gating energies. Importantly, it was found that in collinear geometry all tested materials except STO are capable of reaching nearly 100% transmission.

A Mössbauer study of the chemical stability of iron oxide nanoparticles in PMMA and PVB beads

We have prepared magnetic beads consisting of iron oxide nanoparticles in a polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) and a polyvinyl butyral (PVB) matrix. High-field Mössbauer studies show that the particles have an almost perfect collinear spin structure and magnetization measurements show that they are superparamagnetic at room temperature at a time scale of seconds. We have followed the oxidation of the particles, which initially have a stoichiometry close to magnetite. The oxidation is fast during the first 2–3 weeks and then continues slowly such that even after 30 weeks the particles have not completely transformed to maghemite. The PVB beads are hydrophilic and biocompatible and are therefore well suited for applications in medicine and biology.     

On the application of group theory to spinwaves in collinear magnetic structures

The application of group theory to spinwaves in collinear magnetic structures is discussed in close analogy with similar applications made in the case of lattice vibrations. Some of the basic features pertaining to magnetic space groups are first recalled and the spinwave equations for collinear magnetic systems are set up. The details of applying group theory are then described using the multiplier-representation approach, and finally the methodology is illustrated by working through in detail the classification of spinwaves in Fe₃O₄. The relationship of the present results to those given earlier by Brinkman and Elliott for the same crystal is also pointed out.     

Exchange interactions in BaFe12O19

In the scope of the mean field approximation the nine nearest neighbour exchange interactions existing among the ferric ions in BaFe₁₂O₁₉ hexagonal ferrite have been determined from the experimental sublattice magnetizations. It is shown that these exchange interactions are well explained by means of the superexchange theory. It is also concluded that some direct exchange interaction does exist among the octahedral 4f _VI ions. The calculated magnetization, paramagnetic susceptibility, and Curie temperature are in good agreement with the corresponding experimental values. The stability of the collinear Gorter-type magnetic structure of BaFe₁₂O₁₉ is discussed as well.     

Resonances and chaos in the collinear collision system (He,H 2 + ) and its isotopic variants

The collinear atom-diatom collision system provides one of the simplest instances of chaotic or irregular scattering. Classically, irregular scattering is manifest in the sensitive dependence of post-collision variables on initial conditions, and quantally, in the appearance of a dense spectrum of dynamical resonances. We examine the influence of kinematic factors on such dynamical resonances in collinear (He, H ₂ ⁺ ) collisions by computing the transition state spectra for collinear (He, HD⁺) and (He, DH⁺) collisions using the time-dependent quantum mechanical approach. The nearest neighbor spacing distributionP(s) and the spectral rigidity Δ₃(L) for these resonances suggest that the dynamics is predominantlyirregular for collinear (He, HD⁺) and predominantlyregular for collinear (He, DH⁺). These findings are reinforced by a significantly larger “correlation hole” in ensemble averaged survival probability ≪P(t)≫ values for collinear (He, HD⁺) than for collinear (He,DH⁺). In addition we have also examined measures of classical chaos through the dependence of the final vibrational action,n _f, on the initial vibrational phaseφ _i of the diatom, and Poincaré surfaces-of-section. They show that (He, HD⁺) collisions are partly chaotic over the entire energy range (0–2.78 eV) while (He, DH⁺) collisions, in contrast, are highly regular at collision energies below the classical threshold for reaction. Above the threshold, the scattering remains regular for initial vibrational statesv=0 and 1 of DH⁺.     

Lifetimes of metastable states in Sr II

The lifetimes of the 4d ²D _3/2,5/2 levels of Sr⁺ have been determined both experimentally and theoretically. The experiment was performed at an ion storage ring utilising collinear laser excitation. The calculation was performed by the Hartree-Fock method including relativistic effects and core polarisation. The obtained lifetimes (which are about 0.4 s) are discussed in detail and compared with earlier published results. In addition, calculated lifetimes of a large number of excited states in Sr⁺ are included. Received 15 February 2000 and Received in final form 20 March 2000     

Resistive switching of silicon-rich-oxide featuring high compatibility with CMOS technology for 3D stackable and embedded applications

This paper discusses the resistive switching devices based on highly compatible silicon-rich-oxide, including silicon monoxide (SiO) and SiO _x N _y material, which can be fabricated by low temperature process, and thus fully compatible with the back-end CMOS technology. The demonstrated SiO based RRAM suitable for 3D stackable applications shows repeatable unipolar resistive switching behavior with excellent on/off resistance ratio and good retention performance, but a little bit high switching voltage. The presented silicon-rich silicon-oxynitride RRAM device can effectively reduce the switching voltages (∼1 V) and shows good retention capability under 180°C baking as well as fast speed, giving great potentials for 3D stackable and embedded applications. The switching mechanisms in the studied devices are discussed. The method of switching voltage reduction through nitrogen doping, as a kind of defect engineering, can provide some guidelines for RRAM design.     

Nuclear moments of strongly deformed strontium isotopes

Nuclear spins, moments and mean square charge radii of^78–100Sr have been obtained by fast ion-beam collinear laserspectroscopy. The experiments performed at ISOLDE have been extended to include⁹⁹Sr, measured by a non-optical detection scheme with a two-step optical pumping sequence. The results for the strongly deformed isotopes are discussed in the frame of the particle-plus-deformed core model.     

Science and technology of stressed liquid crystals: display and non-display applications

ABSTRACT

Stressed liquid crystals (SLCs) have emerged as promising tunable electro-optical materials more than a decade ago. They are optically transparent and are characterized by a giant phase modulation of the incident light (Nπ, N >> 1), fast (millisecond and shorter) electro-optical response, and a relatively low driving voltage (～1 V/μm). Surprisingly, despite their advanced electro-optical performance, these new materials did not receive due attention in the research community. One possible reason of such an inadequate interest in SLCs is the lack of the well-documented procedure describing how to actually produce these materials. This paper is aimed at the development of such a step-by-step practical guide suitable for experimentalist and engineers. The proposed technology is applied to produce and characterize SLCs. In addition, some applications of the materials are briefly discussed and a broader overview of their possible use is outlined.     

Iterative Lineshape Fitting of MAS NMR Spectra: A Tool to Investigate HomonuclearJCoupling in Isolated Spin Pairs

Possibilities and limitations of iterative lineshape fitting procedures of MAS NMR spectra of isolated homonuclear spin pairs, aiming at determination of magnitudes and orientations of the various interaction tensors, are explored. Requirements regarding experimental MAS NMR spectra as well as simulation and fitting procedures are discussed. Our examples chosen are the isolated³¹P spin pairs in solid Na₄P₂O₇· 10H₂O, (1), and Cd(NO₃)₂· 2PPh₃, (2). In both cases the two³¹P chemical shielding tensors in the molecular unit are related byC₂symmetry, and determination of the orientations of these two tensors in the molecular frame is possible. In addition, aspects of homonuclearJcoupling will be addressed. For 1, both magnitude and sign of²J_iso(³¹P,³¹P) (J_iso= −19.5 ± 2.5 Hz) are obtained; for 2, (J_iso= +139 ± 3 Hz) anisotropy ofJwith an orientation of theJ-coupling tensor collinear, or nearly collinear, with the dipolar coupling tensor can be excluded, while absence or presence of anisotropy ofJwith any other relative orientation of theJ-coupling tensor cannot be determined.     

A dynamical approach to the information content of collinear inelastic scattering

The information content of collinear inelastic scattering is discussed in terms of (a) the nature of the classical transformation in internal angle-action space induced by the collision, (b) the number of parameters required to characterize the transformation, and (c) the number and choice of trajectories required to determine the parameters. The constraints of time reversal symmetry, energy and flux conservation are embodied in the transformation equations. In a model application the full S matrix is successfully estimated in terms of a single information parameter deduced from knowledge of the purely elastic scattering trajectories.     

Electromagnetic corrections to deep inelastic scattering at HERA

The dominant electromagnetic radiative corrections to neutral current deep inelastic scattering at HERA energies have been calculated analytically in collinear approximation for unpolarized beams. The results may be used for the construction of an event generator and are applied to discuss the influence of cuts on the magnitude of the correction. For final state collinear photon emission the measurement of the resulting electromagnetic jet (electron plus collinear photon) reducesx-andy-dependence of the correction factor. Electromagnetic corrections to charged current interactions are discussed in leading logarithmic approximation.     

Solution of collinear cracks in an electrostrictive solid

A general treatment is presented of the two-dimensional problem of N collinear cracks in an infinite electrostrictive material subjected to remote electric loads based on the complex variable method combined with analytical extension of the complex variable functions. First, for the case of permeable cracks, general solutions for the electric potentials, Maxwell stresses, electroelastic stresses and stress intensity factors are derived. As specific examples, explicit and concise results are obtained for the cases of one crack and two collinear cracks. Then, these results are extended to the cases of impermeable and conducting collinear cracks, respectively. It is found that, in general, the total stresses always have the classical singularity of the r ^{- 1/2} type at the crack tips, whereas the Maxwell stresses have an r ^{- 1} singularity for the above three crack models. Finally, it is concluded that the applied electric field may either enhance or retard crack growth depending on the electric boundary conditions adopted on the crack faces, and the Maxwell stresses on the crack faces and at infinity.     

Fast deuteron production in proton-nucleus interactions

Deuteron formation in proton-nucleus reactions due to the coalescence mechanism with final-state interaction between nucleons is discussed in order to establish the kinematical region of the validity of this approach. The experimental data on fast deuteron production in proton-nucleus collisions at bombarding energies above 3 GeV are analyzed. It is shown that most experimental results were obtained for deuteron momenta below the critical limit of the coalescence model. It is discussed to which extent further experimental studies could help to identify contributions from the coalescence mechanism and to get better understanding of the fast deuteron-production process.This article was processed by the author using the LATEX style filepljour2 from Springer-Verlag.
