Der Systembegriff der Kontrolltheorie und Regel-Relative

To characterize E. D. Sontag’s system of axioms for control-systems in a more operative manner we consider an equivalent algebraic structure, which we name Regel- Relative.     

Spectroscopy of excited state positronium

Electric dipole transitions in the microwave range have been induced between the fine-structure levels of positronium in the excited staten=2. As an indication of the transitions, we used the increase in Lyman- radiation when the metastable 2³S₁-level is depopulated. The results for the transitions 2³S₁2³P_0,1,2 are ₀=18499.65±1.20±4.00 MHz, ₁=13012.42 ±0.65±1.54 MHz and ₂=8624.38±0.54±1.40 MHz. The first error is statistical and the second systematic. The precision of the present measurement has improved by a factor of 3, compared to previous data. Recent bound state QED-calculations have been extended to the orderR _t8 ⁴ln ^–1. The not yet completely calculated orderR _t8 ⁴ is estimated to contribute less than 1 MHz. Our experimental results are in good agreement with theory. By applying a weak magnetic field, we were able to observe the transition 2³S₁2¹P₁ which is strictly forbidden byC-invariance in zero field. Our result, corrected for Zeeman- and motional Starkeffect, is ₃=11180.0±5.0±4.0 MHz. An upper limit for theC-violating matrix element of MHz could be deduced. Our experiment used moderated slow positrons from the bremsstrahlung and pair production of a pulsed electron linear accelerator (TEPOS facility at the university of Giessen).     

Polynomial rings over Goldie-Kerr commutative rings II

An overlooked corollary to the main result of the stated paper (Proc. Amer. Math. Soc. 120 (1994), 989--993) is that any Goldie ring of Goldie dimension 1 has Artinian classical quotient ring , hence is a Kerr ring in the sense that the polynomial ring satisfies the on annihilators . More generally, we show that a Goldie ring has Artinian when every zero divisor of has essential annihilator (in this case is a local ring; see Theorem ). A corollary to the proof is Theorem 2: A commutative ring has Artinian iff is a Goldie ring in which each element of the Jacobson radical of has essential annihilator. Applying a theorem of Beck we show that any ring that has Noetherian local ring for each associated prime is a Kerr ring and has Kerr polynomial ring (Theorem 5).
