Theoretical Investigations of Nonlinear Optical Properties of Transition Metal Cluster Anions

In the framework of density functional theory （DFT）, the electronic excitations and nonlinear optical （NLO） properties of six binuclear transition metal cluster anions with the formula of [Ch2M-（μ-Ch）2-M＇CN]^2- （M = Mo, W; Ch = S, Se; M＇ = Cu, Ag） have been systemically investigated at both cases of gas phase and DMF solution. The obtained electronic absorption spectra reveal that the element replacements of metals M and ligands Ch have significant influence on the absorptions, especially on the low-lying ones. In addition, the transitions of μ-Ch→M are dominant for the low-lying excitations, whereas the transitions of M＇→M as well as Ch→M are mainly responsible for the higher excitations. The calculated molecular first and second hyperpolarizabilities present the remarkable element substitution and solvent effects. The analyses show that the transitions involving μ-Ch→M charge transfer make the critical contributions to the first hyperpolarizability t, and that the charge transfers from the moieties of MCh4 to M＇CN as well as those of μ-Ch→M and M＇→M are responsible for the second hyperpolarizability y. Moreover, the introduction of solvent leads to the results that the transitions within the moieties of MCh4 and M＇CN make larger contributions to the hyperpolarizability, especially to γ.     

Λ Production and Λ/p Ratio in Relativistic Heavy Ion Collisions

The Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio are studied by hadron transportation-string fragmentation model in relativistic heavy ion collisions. Firstly, the dependence of Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio on the system size and the collision centrality is studied. It shows that the Λ and p multiplicities go up as the increase of system size and the increase of collision centrality. However, their ratio keeps almost a constant. The effect of Λ annihilation cross section to Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio is also studied. It is found that this effect is weak: Λ multiplicity and Λ/p ratio have a little amount of increase by the decrease of Λ annihilation cross section. Even the cross section is down to zero, Λ/p ratio is only 1.2 in 200A GeV AuAu head on collision. The Λ/p ratio is obtained to be 0.28 in pp collision, lying in the range of experimental data:0.2—0.3. It is also obtained that the ratio in AA collisions is 3—5 times of that in pp collision.

Formation of the Co/Si(110) interface: Phase composition and magnetic properties

The formation of the Co/Si(110)16 × 2 interface and its magnetic properties are studied by high-energy-resolution photoelectron spectroscopy using synchrotron radiation and magnetic linear dichroism in the photoemission of core electrons. It is shown that a cobalt coating less than 7 Å thick deposited on the silicon surface at room temperature results in the formation of an ultrathin (1.7 Å) interfacial cobalt silicide layer and a layer of silicon-cobalt solid solution. The ferromagnetic ordering of the interface is observed at an evaporation dose corresponding to 6–7 Å in which case a cobalt metal film begins to grow on the solid solution layer. During 300°C-annealing of the sample covered by a nanometer-thick cobalt layer, the metal film gradually disappears and four silicide phases arise: metastable ferromagnetic silicide Co₃Si and three stable nonmagnetic silicides (Co₂Si, CoSi, and CoSi₂).     

NUCLEAR CHARGE DISPERSION OF FRAGMENTS IN HIGH ENERGY PROTON-NUCLEUS COLLISION

The charge dispersion of fragments in high energy p+Cu,Kr and Xe reactions are calculated by statistical model and Monte Carlo technique.The corresponding data are reproduced quite well.It is shown that the charge dispersions are all nearly gaussian.The mass dependence of the most probable fragment charge reflects the rest target memory effect.     

Charged Multiplicity Density and Number of Participant Nucleons in Relativistic Nuclear Collisions

The energy and centrality dependencies of charged particle pseudorapidity density in relativistic nuclearcollisions were studied using a hadron and string cascade model, JPCIAE. Both the relativistic p+p experimental dataand the PHOBOS and PHENIX Au+Au data at RHIC energy could be fairly reproduced within the framework ofJPCIAE model and without retuning the model parameters. The predictions for Pb + Pb collisions at the LHC energywere also given. We computed the participant nucleon distributions using different methods. It was found that thenumber of participant nucleons is not a well defined variable both experimentally and theoretically. Thus it may beinappropriate to use the charged particle pseudorapidity density per participant pair .as a function of the number ofparticipant nucleons for distinguishing various theoretical models.     

多光子过程中相位退相干时两原子布局数反转

利用全量子理论的方法,研究了存在相位退相干时多光子T-C模型中两个二能级原子与二项式光场相互作用系统中两原子的布居数反转。讨论了相位退相干系数、二项式光场系数、最大光子数、跃迁光子数对原子布居数反转的影响。结果表明：相位退相干减少了原子布居数反转的振幅、破坏了原子的量子特性。改变跃迁光子数,可以改变原子间布居数反转演化周期及演化强度。当二项式光场的最大光子数增大时,原子布居差的崩塌-回复现象就会逐渐消失。相位退相干因子不变时, 二项式光场从相干态过渡到数态过程中,原子布居的振荡频率由大变小,周期性的崩塌与回复现象逐渐消失。     

On the Intermittency in Nuclear Fragmentations

A simple Monte Carlo simulation and even a partition method can be used to reproduce quite well the power law behavior between the factorial moment and the charge interval of fragment charge distributions from the multifragmentation of ¹⁹⁷Au nucleus bombarding emulsion at～1 GeV/nucleon. This indicates that the above power law seems not to be a unique precursor of the intermittent behavior in nuclear multifragmentations.
