Some exact models for nonspherical collapse.I

Evolution of incoherent matter distributions with cylindrical, pseudoplanar, and toroidal symmetries is considered. The system is described in terms of the scale factora (R, T) and the anisotropy factor (R, T) of the (x², x³ surfaces. A number of exact solutions is obtained under the assumptions=(a), =(R), and=(T) and their physical properties are breifly discussed. In particular, the solution with=(T) is noncollapsing and describes a matter distribution with unchanging density.     

Localization effects and dispersion of the dielectric response function in one-dimensional metals

We report the results of calculations and analysis concerning the dependence of the dielectric response function(, q) on frequency and wave numberq in one-dimensional conductors. The localization of electron states leads to unusually complicated dependences of(, q) on andq in low-frequency and long-wavelength regions, while the spatial and time dispersions become closely interwoven with each other. The effect of geometric resonance is discussed. It appears as quasiharmonical oscillations of complex susceptibility as function of andq, owing to the hopping nature of electron conductivity in a nonuniform electromagnetic field.     

The third-order electric susceptibilities of NaCl and KCl monocrystals

The dispersion of the third-order electric susceptibilities(; , , –) and(; , 0, 0) of NaCl and KCl monocrystals has been calculated by means of experimental data on the electro-optic Kerr effect. The result has been obtained by using semi-classical models of anharmonic oscillators. An ionic contribution to the electro-optic coefficients has been presented. From the result obtained it follows that the third-order electric susceptibilities are of the order of 10^–22 m² V^–2.     

Explaining μ+ spin-lattice relaxation in MnF2, belowT N,by scattering function

A relation between the spin-lattice relaxation rate (1/T ₁) of positive muons and the scattering functionS ^T (q,) is derived for the antiferromagnet MnF₂. We find good agreement between previousSR measurements of 1/T ₁ and our calculation using neutron scattering measurements ofS ^T (q,).     

Alloy analog treatment of the dynamical magnetic susceptibility of intermediate valence compounds

The dynamical spin susceptibility (q, ) of intermediate valence compounds is calculated within the frame of the alloy analog approximation of the periodic Anderson model. For choices of the parameters, which are realistic for intermediate valency, we present numerical results for the frequency ()-, wave number (q-) and temperature dependence of the imaginary part (q, ) of the susceptibility and of the spin-spin correlation function, respectively. We obtain qualitatively good agreement with the typical results of neutron scattering and NMR measurements on mixed valent systems. Some predictions on a detailed fine structure in the frequency dependence of the susceptibility are made by our theory.Work performed within the research program of the Sonderforschungsbereich 125 Auchen-Julich-Köln     

Ultrasound in spin glasses

The change of the sound velocity v(,T) and the damping of sound waves (,T) in spin glasses are calculated in the frame-work of an Ising model with a random distribution of exchange interactions. The calculation is based on linearized equations of motion for the spins and on an improved mean field approximation which includes the Onsager reaction field. Near to the freezing temperatureT _f and at high temperatures v(,T) and (,T) turn out to be approximately proportional to the real and the imaginary parts of the dynamical susceptibility. For the special case of infinite range interactions atT=T _f one has v(, T_f) ( )^1/2 and (, T_f) (/)^1/2 where is the relaxation time of independent spins. However, already slightly aboveT _f the frequency dependence of both quantities becomes rather small for RKKY spin glasses. At high temperatures both, v(,T) and (,T) vary asT ^–1.SFB 125 Aachen-Jülich-Köln     

Dynamic structure factor in a random diffusion model

Let {X _t:0} denote random walk in the random waiting time model, i.e., simple random walk with jump ratew ^–1(X _t), where {w(x):x^d} is an i.i.d. random field. We show that (under some mild conditions) theintermediate scattering function F(q,t)=E ₀ (q^d) is completely monotonic int (E ₀ denotes double expectation w.r.t. walk and field). We also show that thedynamic structure factor S(q, w)=2 ₀ cos(t)F(q, t) exists for 0 and is strictly positive. Ind=1, 2 it diverges as 1/||^1/2, resp. –ln(||), in the limit 0; ind3 its limit value is strictly larger than expected from hydrodynamics. This and further results support the conclusion that the hydrodynamic region is limited to smallq and small such that ||D |q|², whereD is the diffusion constant.

Magnetic susceptibility of a one-dimensional Fermi system and dielectric function of a two-dimensional Coulomb gas

A relation between the magnetic susceptibility(k, ) of an interacting 1-D Fermi system and the dielectric function(q) of a 2-D Coulomb gas is established. By applying a cluster-expansion technique and by using known results for the pair-correlation function of the Coulomb gas we obtain a number of expressions for(q) which apply in different regions of theq-plane and in different temperature intervals. These results supplement the existing picture of the transition from non-metallic to metallic behaviour occurring in the 2-D Coulomb gas as the temperature increases. The relation between(q) and(k, ) is then used to derive explicit expressions for(k, ) from these results for(q). The change in the dielectric response of the 2-D Coulomb gas is reflected by a change in the magnetic response of the 1-D Fermi system: as a function of the spin non-flip coupling constant the susceptibility of the Fermi system changes from normal paramagnetic behaviour to non-magnetic behaviour characteristic of a bound singlet-spin ground state, as decreases. Our result for the gap in the spin excitation spectrum of the Fermi system is in agreement with the results of other authors.On sabbatical leave from Institut für Theoretische Physik, TU Hannover, GermanyWork at U.C.S.B. supported in part by the National Science Foundation     

Some results on electronic two- and one photon raman scattering in CdS

Two photon Raman scattering (TPRS) via virtually excited biexcitons is observed in CdS over a rather large spectral region in a scattering configuration which favours stimulated emission. We observe either a pure longitudinal exciton or-for the first time—a bound exciton (I ₂) as final state particles. Furthermore, the anomaly in the relation between _exc and _R at _exc= E_blex is observed for the first time in a II–VI compound, indicating an energy of the ₁ biexciton level of 5.098 eV in agreement with two photon absorption measurements. With an applied magnetic fieldB, the corresponding shift of the exciton eigenenergies can be observed. For the longitudinal exciton, the diamagnetic shift is 0.35 meV atB=10T forBc in agreement with theoretical predictions. In this configuration also a stimulated one photon spin flip Raman scattering is observed, yielding the well known electronicg-value of 1.78.     

Ferromagnetic resonance in media with an inhomogeneous saturation magnetization

The method of transition probabilities is used to calculate the line width of ferromagnetic resonance in a medium with an inhomogeneous saturation magnetization. It is shown that in addition to linear (with respect to the Fourier components of the function describing inhomogeneities) terms, the perturbation Hamiltonian must include also quadratic terms. The frequency dependence of the contribution of the porosity to H is fundamentally different from the frequency dependence of the magnetic anisotropy contribution. This anisotropy contribution H_a() decreases on increase in the frequency and has a maximum at = (2/3)_M, whereas the porosity contribution H_p increases on increase in the frequency and vanishes at = (2/3)_M.deceasedTranslated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 12, pp.48–52, December, 1980.

The plasmon density of states of a layered electron gas

The plasmon density of states (DOS)p() of a layered electron gas (LEG) is studied theoretically. It is shown thatp() is a linear function of frequency as goes to 0, and then increases more rapidly as tends to the screened, three dimensional plasma frequency _p. We also study the partial densities of state for constantK andq _z , whereK andq _z are the magnitude of the transverse and perpendicular momentum transfers. A possible experimental probe for the plasmon DOS is discussed.     

Green's functions for body-centred cubic lattices

The presented paper contains the tables of Green's functions for bcc lattices for outband frequencies 1·0/ _m 1·6. The central-force model is used, the interaction with 8 nearest and 6 next-nearest neighbours is considered and the number of different Green's functions is fairly decreased by symmetry. Numerical difficulties arising by computing Green's functions are discussed. The derivation of symmetry relations for a dynamical matrix is generalized for the matrix of Green's functions.     

Periodic Motion of Atoms Near a Charged Wire

We study the classical motion of an atom in the vicinity of an infinite straight wire which carries an oscillating uniform charge. This system has been proposed as a mechanism for trapping cold neutral atoms. The parameters of the problem are the magnitude Q and frequency of oscillation of the charge, the mass M and polarizability of the atom, and the angular momentum L of the atom about the wire. For 0 and 2MQ ² greater than, but close to, L ², we prove that the atom's radial motion is periodic (with period 2/), and that the atom moves in a helical path around the wire. For 2MQ ² L ² we prove that the atom must either collide with the wire or else escape to infinity in the radial direction.     

Localization in general one dimensional random systems,I. Jacobi matrices

We consider random discrete Schrödinger operators in a strip with a potentialV (n, ) (n a label in and a finite label across the strip) andV an ergodic process. We prove thatH ₀+V has only point spectrum with probability one under two assumptions: (1) Theconditional distribution of {V (n,)} _n=0,1;all conditioned on {V } _n0,1;all has an absolutely continuous component with positive probability. (2) For a.e.E, no Lyaponov exponent is zero.Research partially supported by USNSF grant MCS-81-20833     

Derivation and solution of a low-friction Fokker-Planck equation for a bound Brownian particle

The low-friction region of an anharmonically bound Brownian particle is examined using systematic elimination procedures. We obtain an asymptotic expression for the spectrum of the Fokker-Planck operator. Asymptotic means both small anharmonicities and small friction constants compared to the oscillatory frequency . We conclude that Kramers' low-friction equation is generally valid only for 0<0.01 and has to be modified for 0.01 by including phase-dependent terms. From these the nonlinear part of the force field in connection with a finite temperature is shown to shorten the correlation time of the equilibrium velocity autocorrelation function and to renormalize the frequency of the corresponding spectral density.

Singular behavior of the density of states and the Lyapunov coefficient in binary random harmonic chains

We study the integrated density of statesH( ²) of a chain of harmonic oscillators with a binary random distribution of the masses. We show in particular that there is a dense set of values of the squared frequency for which the differenceH( ²+)-H( ²) has a singularity of the type ¦¦², multiplied by a periodic function of ln ¦¦, where the exponent and the period depend continuously on ². In the region where < 1/2,H is not differentiate on a dense set of points. The same type of singularities is also present in the Lyapunov coefficient.     

Homogeneous and hypersurface-homogeneous shear-free perfect fluids in general relativity

Shear-free, general-relativistic perfect fluids are investigated in the case where they are either homogeneous or hypersurface-homogeneous (and, in particular, spatially homogeneous). It is assumed that the energy density and the presurep of the fluid are related by a barotropic equation of statep = p(), where +p 0. Under such circumstances, it follows that either the fluid's volume expansion rate or the fluid's vorticity (i.e., rotation) must vanish. In the homogeneous case, this leads to only two possibilities: either = = 0 (the Einstein static solution), or 0, = 0 (the Gödel solution). In the hypersurface-homogeneous case, the situation is more complicated: either = 0, 0 (as exemplified,inter alia, by the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker models), or 0, = 0 (which pertains, for example, in general stationary cylindrically symmetric fluids with rigid rotation, or = = 0 (as occurs for static spherically symmetric solutions). Each possibility is further subdivided in an invariant way, and related to the studies of other authors, thereby unifying and extending these earlier works.
