The thickness dependence of the permittivity of barium titanate single crystals

A thickness dependence of the permittivity ofc-domain barium titanate single crystals was found. The experimental results were explained by means of a model of a dielectric with surface layers. The thickness of the layer and the permittivity of the surface layer and bulk of the crystal were determined.

The influence of oscillations on ionization in a discharge path

The paper solves the problem of gas ionization in a discharge path in a very dilute gas, where the free path of the electrons is much larger than the dimensions of the path and the transit time of the electrons between the electrodes is of the order of the period of the applied h-f voltage. It was found that for a certain ratio of the transit time of the electrons between the electrodes in the discharge path to the period of the h-f oscillation, resonance occurs when the wattless current component is zero. The electron density rises in the path and thus also the gas ionization.

The modular group and super-KMS functionals

Every normal, faithful, self-adjoint functional on a von Neumann algebraA canonically determines a one-parameter-weakly continuous *-automorphism group (the analog of the modular group) and a canonical ₂ grading onA, commuting with . We show that the functional satisfies the weak super-KMS property with respect to and Furthermore, we prove that and are the unique pair of a-weakly continuous one-parameter *-automorphism group and a grading of the algebra, commuting with each other, with respect to which is weakly super-KMS. The above results thus provide a complete extension of the theory of Tomita and Takesaki to the nonpositive case.Supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Grant DMS-8922002.     

Current distributions in a two-dimensional random-resistor network

The current and logarithm-of-the-current distributionsn(i) andn(ln i) on bond diluted two-dimensional random-resistor networks at the percolation threshold are studied by a modified transfer matrix method. Thek th moment (–9k8) of n(ln i) i.e., ln i&^k, is found to scale with the linear sizeL as (InL)^(k). The exponents (k) are not inconsistent with the recent theoretical prediction (k)=k, with deviations which may be attributed to severe finitesize effects. For small currents, ln n(y)–, yielding information on the threshold below which the multifractality of (i) breaks down. Our numerical results for the moments of the currents are consistent with other available results.     

Averaged electron Green function and CDW pinning in one-dimensional random potential

The averaged retarded electron Green functionG ⁺(,k) in 1d disordered metal is calculated using the Berezinsky diagram technique. Using the Gorkov's theory it is shown, that the substitution of inG ⁺ (,k) by the square of the external frequency atk=0 gives the dependence of Fröhlich conductivity _F(). This dependence describes the impurity pinning of CDW in 1d disordered metals. The good agreement of this dependence with experimental data Zeller et al. about _F() in quasi-1d conductor KCP is found     

A contribution to the theory of the triple crystal diffractometer

The first part of the paper gives a general equation for triple-crystal arrangement with perfect crystals on the assumption that the third crystal is rotated. It is shown that in the case of perfect crystals the shape of the reflection curve is practically independent of the vertical divergence. The case of mosaic crystals is also solved and the possibility of rotation by other than the third crystal is considered. A method is proposed for investigating the imperfection of a crystal which is different from methods used up to now. The paper is supplemented by some experimental results.

The motion of 90° wedge domains in BaTiO3 in an alternating electric field

The paper deals with the motion of 90° wedge domains in BaTiO₃ in an alternating field of 50 c/s. The critical field, the positional hysteresis loops with double asymmetry, the production of wedges with polarization perpendicular to the field and 180° substructure in the wedges were studied. The differences between the behaviour of the wedges and the individual 90° walls are pointed out which are caused by differences in the energy balance of these formations and by different interactions with 180° processes. The upper limit of contribution of the wedge motion to the initial permittivity is estimated. The results are discussed from the phenomenological point of view.

Duality for a Lorentz quantum group

We give the algebra _q ^/* dual to the matrix Lorentz quantum group _q of Podles-Woronowicz, and Watamuraet al. As a commutation algebra, it has the classical form _q ^/* U _q (sl(2, )) U _q (sl(2, )). However, this splitting is not preserved by the coalgebra structure which we also give. For the derivation, we use a generalization of the approach of Sudbery, viz. tangent vectors at the identity.     

The distribution of dislocations in silicon iron single-crystals grown from the melt

The distribution of dislocations in a crystal of an Fe-4.2% Si alloy prepared from the melt is studied microscopically and, by X-ray diffraction after rendering them visible by anodic dissolving. The dislocations are also studied inside the crystal by successively grinding the surface. The density of the dislocations inside the blocks is determined by calculation from microphotos, the density of the dislocations forming the boundaries between the blocks by measuring the angles between the lattices of neighbouring blocks. It is found that the dislocations are distributed very unevenly in the crystal and most of them form complicated boundaries of blocks, similarly as with ionic crystals. The distribution of dislocations is also discussed from the point of view of their formation and conclusions are reached as to the preparation of single crystals having a smaller number of dislocations.

The theory and structure of the temperature image

The paper describes the theory of the formation of a temperature image when there are large temperature differences and introduces the concept of temperature distortion of an image. It also deals with the geometrical distortion of the temperature image by the longitudinal thermal conductivity of the receiver layer and gives a solution of the corresponding differential equation of the temperature image for the case of a general linear line test and general circular concentric test. Equations are derived for the temperature distributions of the temperature images of some optical lineated and circular test objects and their geometrical distortion due to the thermal conductivity of the receiver layer is investigated.

     

The elastic coupling between longitudinal and transversal vibrations of isotropic rods I. Rods of square and rectangular cross-section

A new approximate method for theoretically calculating longitudinal vibration frequencies of isotropic homogeneous rods of square and rectangular cross-section is given. We divide a three-dimensional longitudinal vibration into three one-dimensional ones; the coupling between the principal strains in question is assumed to be linear, similarly as in the static case of simple tension. The coupling between the deformations is realized by variable coupling parameters or depending on the order of vibrations (contrary to Rayleigh's correction where Poisson's ratio is the coupling parameter). These parameters are defined by the condition that the corresponding frequency must be minimized (stationary).Up till now Giebe and Blechschmidt [2] have given the best approximate method of calculation. The series of their calculated frequencies corresponds to the measuredones nearly as well as the frequencies calculated by us. The theory described here, however, contains a richer spectrum of frequencies and at the same time explains the frequencies measured in the range of the so-called dead zone, which is the weak point of Giebe's and Blechschmidt's theory.

Elastic stress around linear dislocation in anisotropic medium

Relations are derived for the elastic stress field around a linear dislocation in an infinite medium with general anisotropy. The strongly deformed material around the core of the dislocation is cut out in the shape of an elliptic cylinder. The conditions of a free surface are used on the boundary thus formed. The calculation of the field around a crack in a crystal, the model of which was proposed by Fujita in [9], is given as an example.

Logical independence in quantum logic

The projection latticesP(₁),P(₂) of two von Neumann subalgebras ₁, ₂ of the von Neumann algebra are defined to be logically independent if A B0 for any 0AP(₁), 0BP(₂). After motivating this notion in independence, it is shown thatP(₁),P(₂) are logically independent if ₁ is a subfactor in a finite factor andP(₁),P(₂ commute. Also, logical independence is related to the statistical independence conditions called C^*-independence W^*-independence, and strict locality. Logical independence ofP(₁,P(₂ turns out to be equivalent to the C^*-independence of (₁,₂) for mutually commuting ₁,₂ and it is shown that if (₁,₂) is a pair of (not necessarily commuting) von Neumann subalgebras, thenP(₁,P(₂ are logically independent in the following cases: is a finite-dimensional full-matrix algebra and ₁,₂ are C^*-independent; (₁,₂) is a W^*-independent pair; ₁,₂ have the property of strict locality.     

Anisotropy of the low temperature resistivity of hexagonal single crystalline spin glass systems

The impurity contribution to the resistivity in zero field (T) of dilute hexagonal single crystals of ZnMn, CdMn and MgMn has been studied in the mK range on samples cut parallel () and perpendicular () to thec-axis, using a SQUID technique for the measurements. Typical spin glass behavior is found in (T) as well as (T) for all alloys, with Kondo like logarithmic increases at higher temperatures and maxima atT _m at lower temperatures, indicating the influence of impurity interactions. The differences in the corresponding isotropic resistivity _poly(T) between the three systems can qualitatively be understood within the framework of a theoretical model by Larsen, describing (T) as a function of universal quantitiesT/T _K and _RKKY/T _K , where _RKKY is the RKKY-interaction strength andT _K the Kondo temperature. With respect to the two lattice directions studied, the behavior of (T and (T is anisotropic in the Kondo regime as well as in the range where ordering becomes important. While the anisotropy in the Kondo slope can be understood by an anisotropic unitarity limit, the understanding of the anisotropy in region where impurity interactions are important remains problematic.Dedicated to Prof. Dr. S. Methfessel on the occasion of his 60th birthday

Additivity of the entropy and definition of the temperature for quantum systems

A closed quantum systemL is considered which is described by a microcanonical ensemble.L consists of two rather weakly interacting subsystemsL ₁,L ₂. In a rigorous way, the additivity of the entropy is proved by deriving an expression for the entropy density ofL in terms of the entropy densities ofL ₁ andL ₂. Rigorous implies that the thermodynamic limit is taken. In the second part, it is shown how a microcanonical state of the composite system — provided this limit exists — gives rise to a canonical state , when restricted toL ₁, providedL ₁ is very small as compared toL ₂; is defined as a limit of Gibbs states. This yields a definition of the equilibrium temperature ^–1.On leave of absence from the Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Göttingen.

Magnetic anisotropy in thin ferromagnetic films

The magnetic properties of thin ferromagnetic films are studied taking into account the magnetic anisotropy term in the Hamiltonian. In the second approximation equations are obtained for the magnetization of the monatomic layers parallel to the surface of the thin film. From these equations one obtains the Curie temperature, which depends on the thickness of the thin film and the ratio a between the anisotropy constant and the exchange energy between two neighbours. A value can be chosen for such that the thin film becomes ferromagnetic only for a thickness greater than a definite value and in this manner the theoretical results can be fitted to the experimental data. The situation in cobalt thin films is dealt with in particular.
