A comment on higher twist contributions to σLσT

We consider the contribution to $\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{L}}\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{t}}$ in deep inelastic lepton-hadron scattering from a certain class of 4-quark operators in the framework of QCD. We find for this case by explicit calculation that $\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{L}}\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{T}}$ is of order g²(Q²), with g²(Q²) the running coupling strength of QCD, in agreement with a general result of Politzer.     

Application of the short-term Leqto the identification and quantification of several sources constituting an environment

A technique applicable to situations with different noise sources is developed on the basis of a series of limited data (short-term $\text{L}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>eq</mtext>}}$).This technique makes acoustic monitoring of a site possible, identifying and evaluating the respective contributions of the different components of the environment studied.     

On the question of fine structure in νp and EK for 233U and 235U

The question of fine structure in the variation of the average number of prompt neutrons, $\text{ν}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>p</mtext>}}$, emitted per fission with energy in the neutron fission of ²³³U and ²³⁵U has been examined. Consistent structure has been found in measurements of both $\text{ν}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>p</mtext>}}\text{and}\text{E}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>K</mtext>}}$ (the average total fission fragment kinetic energy) for ²³³U. Channel analysis of the neutron fission cross section of ²³³U allows the structure to be calculated quantitatively provided the collective energy at the second hump in the fission barrier is weakly coupled to the nuclear degrees of freedom at scission. A similar calculation for neutron fission of ²³⁵U supports the case for the absence of fine structure in $\text{ν}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>p</mtext>}}\text{and}\text{E}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>K</mtext>}}$ for this nucleus.     

Hyperfine interaction in the 4D32 and the 4D52 levels of sodium

We have excited the $\text{4D}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>3</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ and $\text{4D}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>5</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ levels of sodium using Doppler-free two-photon excitation. By measuring the polarization rate in zero magnetic field of the fluorescence lines, we have deduced the following values for the hyperfine interaction $\text{|A(}\text{4D}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>3</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}\text{) | =}\text{0.23 ± 0.12 MHz}$ and $\text{|A(}\text{4D}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>5</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}\text{)| <}\text{0.28 MHz}$. The value of $\text{A(}\text{4D}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>3</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}\text{)}$ is in disagreement with the one reported by Schenk and Pillof.     

f72 neutron occupancies in the Ca isotopes

Methods of obtaining nucleon occupancies from total energy-weighted sum rules for spectroscopic factors are described and applied to $\text{f}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>7</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ neutron transfer data for Ca isotopes. The $\text{f}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>7</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ neutron occupancies obtained are consistent with shell model expectations and, for ⁴¹Ca and ⁴³Ca, with values previously obtained from an analysis using non-energy-weighted sum rules.     

Proton 1h112 excitations in odd-mass N = 82 nuclei

The structure of negative-parity states in odd-mass N= 82 isotones (135 ≦ A ≦ 145) is investigated in the framework of a model which is based on coupling one $\text{1h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>11</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ proton to π = + 1 states of the appropriate doubly-even isotonic core. It is shown that an effective model-space truncation can be achieved if only core states in the vicinity of the yrast line are taken into account. These have been selected from the several hundreds or even thousands of states obtained from shell-model calculations, where the $\text{1g}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>7</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$, $\text{2d}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>5</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$, $\text{2d}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>3</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ and $\text{3s}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ single- are assumed to be occupied. Spectroscopic data are calculated and predictions on the structure of low-lying π = ? 1 states are discussed and compared as far as possible to experimental findings. Thereby, the particle-core coupling approach is shown to be capable of describing essential properties of negative-parity levels in the N = 82 nuclei considered.     

A theoretical understanding of the smallness of σelσT

The origin for the smallness of $\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{el}}\text{σ}{}_{\mathrm{T}}$ is discussed within the framework of a factorizable dual bootstrap model with full t-dependence.     

Magnetic moment of the 1h113 single-proton state in 141pr

A magnetic dipole core polarization was studied by investigating a magnetic moment of the 1117 keV $\text{1}\text{h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>11</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ single-proton state in ¹⁴¹Pr. The ¹³⁹La(α, 2nγ)¹⁴¹Pr reaction was used to populate the $\text{1}\text{h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>11</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ state with spin aligned in a plane perpendicular to the beam axis. The magnetic moment was obtained by measuring perturbed angular distributions of the 972 keV gamma rays from the $\text{1}\text{h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>11</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ state. The g-factor of the $\text{1}\text{h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>11</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ state in ¹⁴¹Pr was determined to be g = 1.30 ± 0.08. The isovector spin g-factor was deduced from the present result and the data for $\text{1}\text{h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>11</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$. neutron states. It is $\text{g}{}_{\mathrm{s?}}{}^{\mathrm{<mtext>eff</mtext>}}\text{g}{}_{\mathrm{s?}}{}^{\mathrm{<mtext>free</mtext>}}\text{= 0.45 ± 0.1}$. The reduction is explaine spin-isospin (M1) core polarization.The isovector M1 core polarization factor (nuclear M1 susceptibility) is found to be one third of the M2 core polarization factor (nuclear M2 susceptibility) for the $\text{1}\text{h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>11</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ state.     

The distribution of 3p12 strength in 209Bi

An optimized Woods-Saxon potential, which gives excellent fits to the observed proton states in ²⁰⁹Bi and ²⁰⁷Tl, is used to calculate the excitation energy of the unbound $\text{3p}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ proton state in ²⁰⁹Bi. Using the wave functions given by the above potential, the strength of the core-particle interaction is calculated. The effect of the vibration of the core on the fragmentation of the $\text{3p}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ state is estimated. It is found that the $\text{3p}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ state at 5.123 MeV loses more than 80% of its strength to five $\text{1}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{?}}$ collective states in ²⁰⁹Bi and the observed $\text{3p}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ state at 3.64 MeV is actually an almost equal mixture of the $\text{3p}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ single-proton state and the ($\text{4}{}^{\mathrm{+}}\text{, 1}\text{h}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>9</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$) collective state.     

Molecular three-body approach to Λ9Be and Σ9Be hypernuclei

The dependence of the low-lying spectra of ${}_{\mathrm{\Lambda ,\; \Sigma }}{}^9\text{Be}$ hypernuclei on hyperon-α interaction in the molecular α + α + Λ(Σ) scheme has been studied. A suggestion is made for obtaining the strengths of both p-wave and spin-orbit Λ-α interactions from the experimental ${}_{\mathrm{\Lambda }}{}^9\text{Be}$ spectrum. A relation between the Σ⁰-binding energies $\text{B}{}_{\mathrm{\Sigma }}\text{(}{}_{\mathrm{\Sigma }}{}^9\text{Be}\text{)}$ and $\text{B}{}_{\mathrm{\Sigma }}\text{(}{}_{\mathrm{\Sigma }}{}^9\text{He}\text{)}$ has been established and on its basis a prediction is made about a possible binding energy of ${}_{\mathrm{\Sigma }}{}^5\text{He}$.     

Bounds on quark mixing angles from the decay KL → μμ

We determine bounds on quark mixing angles in the standard six-quark model from an analysis of the decay $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{L}}\text{→ μ}\text{μ}$. When combined with previous bounds from a Cabibbo fit and study of the $\text{K}{}^0\text{?}\text{K}{}^0$ transition amplitude, these can yield an improved upper limit on one of the angles.     

Optical characterization of interface disorder in GaAs-Ga1-xAlxAs multi-quantum well structures

We report a systematic increase of the linewidth of luminescence, absorption and excitation spectra of undoped $\text{GaAs-Ga}{}_{\mathrm{1-x}}\text{A}\text{l}{}_{\mathrm{x}}\text{As}$ Multi-Quantum structures with decreasing layer thickness. This broadening is interpreted as due to the island-like structure of the interfaces. A very simple model assuming islands with a one monolayer height and a lateral size ? 300 Å gives very good agreement with the reported linewidths.     

Giant kondo resistivity in (La, Ce) B6

The electrical resistivity of the system $\text{(}\text{La}\text{, Ce)B}{}_6$ has been measured in the temperature range 0.04–300 K. The alloys show a Kondo minimum at about 20 K and a strong increase of the resistivity with decreasing temperature. The low temperature increase of the resistivity due to the Kondo effect of a sample containing 1, 2 at.% is about half as large as the room temperature resistivity of LaB₆. The Kondo temperature T_K of $\text{(}\text{La}\text{, Ce)B}{}_6$ was found to be 1.1 ± 0.2 K by comparison of the experimental results with theoretical predictions of the resistance anomaly associated with the formation of the spin-compensated state.

The total cross-sections for $\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>e</mtext>}}\text{(}\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>e</mtext>}}\text{)}$-nucleon scattering have been measured. A test has been made of the muon number conservation law. A limit of 2.4 GeV is found the mass of the “Georgi-Glashow type” heavy lepton     

Flavor changing neutral currents and multileptons in e+e- and vμN,vμN

New quarks and new flavor-changing neutral currents give multiple lepton plus hadron final states in e⁺e^-, $\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{\mu }}\text{N,}\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{\mu }}\text{N}$. We observe that (i) e⁺e^- is a favored place to search for their effects through inclusive ratios σ(e⁺e^-+x:σ (μ⁺μ^- +x): σ(e±μ±+x) and same sign leptons e±e±+x, μ±μ±+x,e±μ±+x. Above a new flavor threshold four charged lrpton final states may become important. (ii) Trilepton final states in $\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{\mu }}\text{N,}\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{\mu }}\text{N}$ are not sensitive to the presence of flavor-changing neutral currents. Much more sensitive are the processes $\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{\mu }}\text{N}$ are ⁺e^-+βand (for charm changing neutral currents) $\text{v}{}_{\mathrm{\mu }}\text{N→e}{}^{\mathrm{+}}\text{β}$.     

Information on the dynamics of the reaction KN → K1N from KLN interactions

If $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{S}}{}^1\text{,}{}_{\mathrm{L}}\text{is a K}{}^1$ resonance decaying into K_S,L (the short- and long-lived kaon) and a neutral system S^o of pions, one can isolate the C-even and C-odd, crossed-channel contributions to $\text{KN → K}{}^1\text{N}$ by using the reactions $\text{K}{}_{\mathrm{L}}\text{N → K}{}_{\mathrm{S}}{}^1\text{,}{}_{\mathrm{L}}\text{N}$ whether S^o is a C-eigenstate, or a mixture of C-even and C-odd states. Applications to the production of K¹(890) and the Q-meson are discussed, and simple numerical predictions made for Q_S,L production. Q-production data indicate approximate t-channel helicity conservation for the ω and P' exchanges at vertices involving a spin change, in similarity to the belief for the pomeron. Q_S,L production data can give information also on Q-decays.     

2p32 Alignment of silver by 0.1–5.1 MeV proton impact ionization

The $\text{2}\text{p}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>3</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ alignment of silver following 0.1–5.1 MeV proton impact ionization has been determined from the polarization of the L₃M₁ X-ray transition, as measured by a Johansson-type crystal spectrometer. The results were corrected for thick target effects and are in agreement with the results of thin target measurements as well as theoretical predictions.     

Infrared reflectivity analysis of perovskite ceramics Sr(Sr13Nb23)O3

The infrared reflection of polycrystalline samples of perovskite $\text{Sr(Sr}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>1</mtext><mtext>3</mtext>}}\text{Nb}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>2</mtext><mtext>3</mtext>}}\text{)O}{}_3$ are reported and analysed with Kramers-Kronig inversion. Results give information on the structures of the high-temperature and low-temperature forms of the atomic arrangements.     

The γ-decay of the g92 analogue state in 59Cu

An investigation of the γ-decay of the $\text{1}\text{g}{}_{\mathrm{<mtext>9</mtext><mtext>2</mtext>}}$ analogue state in ⁵⁹Cu has been performed using the ⁵⁸Ni(p, γ)⁵⁹Cu reaction. The (p, γ) excitation function has been taken in the range E_p = 3450–3650 keV. The decay schemes of the (p, γ) resonances at E_p = 3483, 3532 and 3547 keV, measured with Ge(Li) detectors, lead to eight new levels in ⁵⁹Cu with excitation energies between 1.8 and 4.7 MeV and to spin assignments of several states. The spins of the first two resonances are found to be ($\text{1}\text{2}$, $\text{3}\text{2}$) and ($\text{5}\text{2}$). The spin of the E_p = 3547 keV resonan is, from angular distributions, uniquely determined to be $\text{J}{}^{\mathrm{\pi }}\text{=}\text{9}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{+}}$ and this state is found to be the unfragmented analogue state of the $\text{E}{}^1\text{= 3.062}\text{MeV}$, $\text{J}{}^{\mathrm{\pi }}\text{=}\text{9}\text{2}{}^{\mathrm{+}}$ parent state in ⁵⁹Ni. The measured complete decay scheme of this resonance shows that its isovector M1 decay is in disagreement with all existing theoretical predictions.
