A Class of Generalized Gamma Functions

Lowest- Q2 measurement of the γp → Δ reaction: Probing the pionic contribution

To determine nonspherical angular-momentum amplitudes in hadrons at long ranges (low Q²), data were taken for the p(ˉe, e'p)π⁰ reaction in the Δ region at Q ² = 0.060 (GeV/c)² utilizing the magnetic spectrometers of the A1 Collaboration at MAMI. The results for the dominant transition magnetic dipole amplitude and the quadrupole to dipole ratios at W = 1232 MeV are , Re( )%, and Re( )%. These disagree with predictions of constituent quark models but are in reasonable agreement with lattice calculations with nonlinear (chiral) pion mass extrapolations, with chiral effective field theory, and with dynamical models with pion cloud effects. These results confirm the dominance, and general Q² variation, of the pionic contribution at large distances.     

Observables and Statistical Maps

This article begins with a review of the framework of fuzzy probability theory. The basic structure is given by the -effect algebra of effects (fuzzy events) and the set of probability measures on a measurable space . An observable is defined, where is the value space of X. It is noted that there exists a one-to-one correspondence between states on and elements of and between observables and -morphisms from to . Various combinations of observables are discussed. These include compositions, products, direct products, and mixtures. Fuzzy stochastic processes are introduced and an application to quantum dynamics is considered. Quantum effects are characterized from among a more general class of effects. An alternative definition of a statistical map is given and it is shown that any statistical map has a unique extension to a statistical operator. Finally, various combinations of statistical maps are discussed and their relationships to the corresponding combinations of observables are derived.     

Time dependent gravitational potential in the universe and some consequences

In this paper, assuming a linear change of the gravitational potential V in the universe, i.e. , some consequences are obtained. 1. The Hubble red shift is explained by the potential difference between the considered galaxy long time ago and the observer at this epoch. 2. The anomalous acceleration a _P from the spacecraft Pioneer 10 and 11 [1] is explained. 3. The deformations of the trajectories of planets are studied. It is shown that the planetary orbits are not axially symmetric and the angle from the perihelion to the aphelion is , while the angle from the aphelion to the perihelion is , where is the orbital period. There is no perihelion precession caused by the time dependent gravitational potential V. The quotient of two consecutive orbital periods ₁ and ₂ is equal to This formula is tested for the pulsars B1885+09 and B1534+12, and the results are good.This revised version was published online in April 2005.

Power Series for Solutions of the 3 {\mathcal D}-Navier-Stokes System on R 3

In this paper we study the Fourier transform of the -Navier-Stokes System without external forcing on the whole space R ³. The properties of solutions depend very much on the space in which the system is considered. In this paper we deal with the space of functions where and c (k) is bounded, . We construct the power series which converges for small t and gives solutions of the system for bounded intervals of time. These solutions can be estimated at infinity (in k-space) by .     

On the Uniqueness of Weak Weyl Representations of the Canonical Commutation Relation

Let (T, H) be a weak Weyl representation of the canonical commutation relation (CCR) with one degree of freedom. Namely T is a symmetric operator and H is a self-adjoint operator on a complex Hilbert space satisfying the weak Weyl relation: for all (the set of real numbers), e^−itH D(T) ⊂ D(T) (i is the imaginary unit and D(T) denotes the domain of T) and . In the context of quantum theory where H is a Hamiltonian, T is called a strong time operator of H. In this paper we prove the following theorem on uniqueness of weak Weyl representations: Let be separable. Assume that H is bounded below with and , where is the set of complex numbers and, for a linear operator A on a Hilbert space, σ(A) denotes the spectrum of A. Then ( is the closure of T) is unitarily equivalent to a direct sum of the weak Weyl representation on the Hilbert space , where is the multiplication operator by the variable and with . Using this theorem, we construct a Weyl representation of the CCR from the weak Weyl representation .

Updated estimate of the muon magnetic momentusing revised results from <Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis><Superscript> + </Superscript><Emphasis Type="Italic">e</Emphasis><Superscript>-</Superscript>annihilation

A new evaluation of the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution to the muon magnetic moment is presented. We take into account the reanalysis of the low-energy e ⁺ e ^-annihilation cross section into hadrons by the CMD-2 Collaboration. The agreement between e ⁺ e ^-and spectral functions in the channel is found to be much improved. Nevertheless, significant discrepancies remain in the center-of-mass energy range between 0.85 and , so that we refrain from averaging the two data sets. The values found for the lowest-order hadronic vacuum polarization contributions are where the errors have been separated according to their sources: experimental, missing radiative corrections in e ⁺ e ^-data, and isospin breaking. The corresponding Standard Model predictions for the muon magnetic anomaly read where the errors account for the hadronic, light-by-light (LBL) scattering and electroweak contributions. The deviations from the measurement at BNL are found to be (1.9 ) and (0.7 ) for the e ⁺ e ^-- and -based estimates, respectively, where the second error is from the LBL contribution and the third one from the BNL measurement.Received: 7 September 2003, Published online: 30 October 2003     

Quantum Phase Dynamics of Interaction between Photon Field and Magnetic System: Effects of Magnetic Quantum Tunnelling

We investigate the dynamics of probability distributions of an initially one-mode coherent field interacting with a four-state molecular system, which is a single magnet with a tunneling across an anisotropic barrier, using a numerically exact approach. The population for each state, the phase properties of and , and ), the entropy are calculated for a model system. The model predicts that the molecule and field become asymptotically disentangled at half of the revival time, and that optical Schrödinger-cat and magnetic Schrödinger-cat states are generated.This paper was originally presented at the 5th International Conference on NEAR FIELD OPTICS and RELATED TECHNOLOGIES (NFO-5), which was held on December 6–10, 1998 at Coganoi Bay Hotel, Shirahama, Japan, in cooperation with the Japan Society of Applied Physics and Mombusho Grant-in Aid for Scientific Research on Priority Areas “Near-field Nano-optics” Project, sponsored by Japan Society for the Promotion of Science.

The Automorphism Group of a Simple Tracially AI Algebra

The structure of the automorphism group of a simple TAI algebra is studied. In particular, we show that is isomorphic (as a topological group) to an inverse limit of discrete abelian groups for a unital, simple, AH algebra with bounded dimension growth. Consequently, is totally disconnected. Another consequence of our results is the following: Suppose A is the transformation group C*-algebra of a minimal Furstenberg transformation with a unique invariant probability measure. Then the automorphism group of A is an extension of a simple topological group by the discrete group .     

Alpha-gamma decay studies of 255Rf, 251No and 247Fm

The decay of the isotopes ²⁵⁵Rf, ²⁵¹No and ²⁴⁷Fm produced in the reactions , and was investigated by means of α-γ spectroscopy. Previously observed γ transitions in coincidence with α decays of ²⁵⁵Rf were confirmed, their energies and line intensities were measured more precisely, and their multipolarities were determined as E1. In ²⁵¹No a new isomeric state at E ^* > 1700keV with a half-life of ≈ 2μs was identified. The decay of ²⁴⁷Fm was measured more precisely. A partial level scheme of the daughter nucleus ²⁴³Cf could be established.     

An expansion of Hartree-Fock and correlation energies,relativistic corrections and the dipole matrix element in the powers of of 1/Z

Feynman diagrammatic technique was used for the calculation of Hartree-Fock and correlation energies, relativistic corrections, dipole matrix element. The whole energy of atomic system was defined as a polen-electron Green function. Breit operator was used for the calculation of relativistic corrections. The Feynman diagrammatic technique was developed for 〈H_B>. Analytical expressions for the contributions from diagrams were received. The calculations were carried out for the terms of such configurations as 1s² 2sⁿ¹ 2pⁿ² (2 ≧n₁≧ 0, 6≧ n₂ ≧ 0). Numerical results are presented for the energies of the terms in the form $$E = E_0 Z^2 + \Delta {\rm E}_2 + \frac{1}{Z}\Delta {\rm E}_3 + \frac{{\alpha ^2 }}{4}(E_0^r + \Delta {\rm E}_1^r Z^3 )$$ and for fine structure of the terms in the form $$\begin{gathered} \left\langle {1s^2 2s^{n_1 } 2p^{n_2 } LSJ|H_B |1s^2 2s^{n_1 \prime } 2p^{n_2 \prime } L\prime S\prime J} \right\rangle = \hfill \\ = ( - 1)^{\alpha + S\prime + J} \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {L S J} \\ {S\prime L\prime 1} \\ \end{array} } \right\}\frac{{\alpha ^2 }}{4}(Z - A)^3 [E^{(0)} (Z - B) + \varepsilon _{co} ] + \hfill \\ + ( - 1)^{L + S\prime + J} \left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {L S J} \\ {S\prime L\prime 2} \\ \end{array} } \right\}\frac{{\alpha ^2 }}{4}(Z - A)^3 \varepsilon _{cc} . \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ Dipole matrix elements are necessary for calculations of oscillator strengths and transition probabilities. For dipole matrix elements two members of expansion by 1/Z have been obtained. Numerical results were presented in the form P(a,a′) = a/Z(1+τ/Z).     

Time decay of solutions to the cauchy problem for time-dependent Schrödinger-Hartree equations

We consider the time-dependent Schrödinger-Hartree equation (1) $$iu_t + \Delta u = \left( {\frac{1}{r}*|u|^2 } \right)u + \lambda \frac{u}{r},(t, x) \in \mathbb{R} \times \mathbb{R}^3 ,$$ (2) $$u(0,x) = \phi (x) \in \Sigma ^{2,2} ,x \in \mathbb{R}^3 ,$$ where λ≧0 and \(\Sigma ^{2,2} = \{ g \in L^2 ;\parallel g\parallel _{\Sigma ^{2,2} }^2 = \sum\limits_{|a| \leqq 2} {\parallel D^a g\parallel _2^2 + \sum\limits_{|\beta | \leqq 2} {\parallel x^\beta g\parallel _2^2< \infty } } \} \) . We show that there exists a unique global solutionu of (1) and (2) such that $$u \in C(\mathbb{R};H^{1,2} ) \cap L^\infty (\mathbb{R};H^{2,2} ) \cap L_{loc}^\infty (\mathbb{R};\Sigma ^{2,2} )$$ with $$u \in L^\infty (\mathbb{R};L^2 ).$$ Furthermore, we show thatu has the following estimates: $$\parallel u(t)\parallel _{2,2} \leqq C,a.c. t \in \mathbb{R},$$ and $$\parallel u(t)\parallel _\infty \leqq C(1 + |t|)^{ - 1/2} ,a.e. t \in \mathbb{R}.$$

Non-linear pressure dependence of A-state fluorescence lifetime of formaldehyde

Fluorescence lifetimes of formaldehyde excited at 352 nm ( A₂ – A₁ 4₀¹ band) were measured as a function of bath gas pressure. He, N₂, O₂, CO₂ and HCHO were investigated for the bath gas and the temperature dependence between 298 and 500 K for N₂ and O₂ bath gases was also examined. It was found that the non-linear pressure dependence of the lifetime is successfully reproduced by the model formula
