Diffraction scattering of Λ 3 H and Λ 6 He hypernuclei on nuclei with allowance for edge diffuseness, the structure of hypernuclei, and multiple-scattering effects

General formulas for the amplitudes of the diffraction scattering of two-and three-cluster loosely bound nuclei on spherical nuclei for an arbitrary dependence of the profile functions on the impact parameter are represented in a form that is convenient for calculations. The differential cross sections for the elastic scattering of _Λ ³ H and _Λ ⁶ He hypernuclei and the total cross sections are obtained with allowance for the diffuseness of the target-nucleus edge, the binding energy of incident hypernuclei, the ranges of nuclear forces between the clusters in the hypernuclei, and multiple (double and triple) scattering. Changes in the behavior of the cross sections in response to a transition from the two-cluster to the three-cluster model of the aforementioned nuclei are revealed.     

The optical near-field speckles and their first order statistics on the basis of the integral equations of electromagnetic field

Speckle fields are the random light wave distributions produced when the light fields are scattered from random surfaces or a random medium. They appear in many optical phenomena that are related to light propagations[1,2] and have found wide appli-cations in a variety of scientific and technical fields. The examples of the recent impor-tant applications of speckles include the analysis of the movement of the granules[3], the three-dimensional imaging for the microstructures of metal nanocryst…     

Determination of the nuclear vertex constants for the 7Be ↔ 3He4He vertex using theN/D equations and calculation of the astrophysical S factor for the 4He(3He, γ)7Be reaction

N/D equations taking into account the Coulomb interaction effects are used to consider the phase analysis data on ³He⁴He scattering and determine the nuclear vertex constants for the ⁷Be ? ³He⁴He vertex, where the beryllium nucleus is in the ground (3/2^?) or first excited (1/2^?) states. Information about the asymptotic normalization coefficients of the wave functions of the ⁷Be nucleus in the noted states is derived. The data obtained are used to calculate the astrophysical S factor for the ⁴He(³He, γ)⁷Be reaction.     

Analysis of the crystal lattice instability for cage–cluster systems using the superatom model

We have investigated the lattice dynamics for a number of rare-earth hexaborides based on the superatom model within which the boron octahedron is substituted by one superatom with a mass equal to the mass of six boron atoms. Phenomenological models have been constructed for the acoustic and lowenergy optical phonon modes in RB₆ (R = La, Gd, Tb, Dy) compounds. Using DyB₆ as an example, we have studied the anomalous softening of longitudinal acoustic phonons in several crystallographic directions, an effect that is also typical of GdB₆ and TbB₆. The softening of the acoustic branches is shown to be achieved through the introduction of negative interatomic force constants between rare-earth ions. We discuss the structural instability of hexaborides based on 4f elements, the role of valence instability in the lattice dynamics, and the influence of the number of f electrons on the degree of softening of phonon modes.     

α8Be cluster model for the 0 2 + resonance in the 12C nucleus

The 0 ₂ ⁺ resonance in the ¹²C nucleus is treated on the basis of the α+⁸Be two-cluster model. An equation for the function describing the relative motion of the clusters is derived by using the s-wave differential Faddeev equations for the 3α system and by relying on the simplest version of the resonating-group method. A phenomenological potential is taken to simulate the pair αα interaction. A three-body potential binding three alpha particles together gives rise to a resonance in two-cluster α+⁸Be scattering. The calculated resonance features and the calculated parameters of the wave function of the system are compared with the results obtained by other authors.     

The parametric orbits and the form invariance of three-body in one-dimension

In this paper, the differential equations of motion of a three-body interacting pairwise by inverse cubic forces(“centrifugal potential”) in addition to linear forces (“harmonical potential”) are expressed in Ermakov formalism in two-dimension polar coordinates, and the Ermakov invariant is obtained. By rescaling of the time variable and the space coordinates, the parametric orbits of the three bodies are expressed in terms of relative energy H1 and Ermakov invariant. The form invariance of the transformations of two conserved quantities are also studied.     

1 GeV proton elastic scattering on 9Be nuclei in the α-cluster model with dispersion

The polarization observables for the elastic p- ⁹Be scattering at 1GeV are calculated on the basis of the multiple-diffraction scattering theory and the -cluster model with dispersion. The ⁹Be nucleus is considered as composed of two -clusters and a neutron arranged at the vertices of an isosceles triangle. The results obtained are in agreement with existing experimental data.     

Measurement of the Breakup Cross Sections in ^6He＋^9Be Reaction at 25 MeV／Nucleon

The breakup reaction cross sections were measured for the reaction of^6He at 25 MeV/nucleon from ^9Be target with intensity of 10^5 pps. By fitting the energy spectra of breakup α particles with Gaussian functions, the angular distribution of differential cross sections in the laboratory system has been extracted and compared with the Serber model calculations. The good agreement between the calculation and the experimental data favours a dominant configuration of the ^4He core plus valence neutrons for the structure of^6He.     

Single-Proton Pickup Reaction of the Halo Nucleus ^6He on a ^9Be Target at 25 MeV/nucleon

The inclusive differential cross sections of the ^7 Li nucleus in a reaction induced by ^6He on a ^9Be target are measured at an incident energy of 25 MeV/nucleon. Finite-range distorted-wave Born approximation calculations suggest that these ^7 Li particles are formed in a direct single-proton pickup reaction ^9Be（^6He,^7 Li）^8Li. The experimental data can be well reproduced by taking into account of the contributions of both the ground states and the first excited states of ^7Li and ^8Li.     

Dissipation in Lie–Poisson systems and the Lorenz-84 model

The relation between dissipation and the symplectic structure of the momentum-space is studied in so(3) Lie algebra and in 2D fluid dynamics. Three kinds of dissipative mechanisms are discussed and a general bracket formalism is introduced. A chaotic dynamical system due to Lorenz, and largely studied in low-dimensional models of geophysical fluid dynamics, is analysed in its geometric and dynamical features, by means of the formalism previously introduced. A mechanism of energy transfer for this low-order model is discussed.     

Measurement of One— and Two—Neutron Transfers in Reaction of ^6He＋^9Be at 25MeV／u

The cross sections one-and two-neutron transfers induced by 6He at 25MeV/u on a^9Be target were measured in RIKEN.Clear identification of the recoiled Be isotopes was achieved.In total five 11Be and 371 ^10Be events,the corresponding two-and one-neutron transfers were obtained and analysed for transfer reaction cross sections.The results are useful to determine the spectroscopic factors of the internal halo structure of the 6He nucleus.     

Heat-kernel expansion and counterterms of the Faddeev–Popov determinant in Coulomb and Landau gauge

The Faddeev–Popov determinant of Landau gauge in d dimensions and Coulomb gauge in d+1 dimensions is calculated in the heat-kernel expansion up to next-to-leading order. The UV-divergent parts in d=3,4 are isolated and the counterterms required for a non-perturbative treatment of the Faddeev–Popov determinant are determined.     

Potential cluster approach to the description of the 7Li + γ ai p6He reactions

Angular distributions for the ⁶He(p, γ_{0 + 1})⁷Li process at the energy E _γ = 40 MeV are calculated within the potential cluster approach. It is shown that the observed cross section is well reproduced when E1 and E2 transitions are taken into account; in this case, unlike the case in the RGM calculations, the dominating mechanism is direct capture to the ground state of the ⁷Li nucleus. Total cross sections for direct photodisintegration ⁷Li (γ, p₀)⁶He in the energy interval E _γ = 22–30 MeV are calculated.     

Two-body forces and amplitudes in the three-body model for the4He(\vec d,pα)n reaction withE d =12 and 17 MeV

The⁴He( ,p)n cross section, vector and tensor analyzing-power data with 12 and 17 MeV deuterons at kinematic conditions including proton-alpha quasifree scattering, neutron-alpha and proton-alpha final-state interactions, as well as collinearity, are compared with the predictions of the three-body model using different nucleon-alpha and neutron-proton forces. In general, better two-body potentials give a better fit to the data, except for the vector analyzing-power data. The roles of the impulse and multiple-scattering amplitudes are studied to understand the sensitivity to two-body potentials and to understand the reason for the successes and the failures of the model.     

Effects of charge on the structures and spin moments of Nil3 cluster

The structural stability and magnetic properties of the icosahedral Ni13, Ni13^＋1 and Ni13^-1 clusters have been obtained by utilizing all-electron density functional theory with the generalized gradient approximations for the exchange-correlation energy. The calculated results show that the ground states of neutral and charged clusters all favour a D3d structure, a distorted icosahedron, due to the Jahn-Teller effect. The radial distortions caused by doping one electron and by doping one hole are opposite to each other. Doping one electron will result in a 1/2 decrease and doping one hole will result in a 1/2 increase of the total spin. Both increasing interatomic spacing and decreasing coordination will lead to an enhancement of the spin magnetic moments for Nil3 clusters.
