On the calculation of multiplicities for representations of SU(n)

For some family of representations of SU(n) the explicit formulae for the multiplicity of a given representation in arbitrary tensor product are derived. The adjoint representation and the representations acting in the symmetrical and antisymmetrical tensors are contained in the considered family as the simplest cases.     

Inversion and inversion-rotation spectrum of 14NH3 in the ν2 excited state

Using the vibration-inversion-rotation Hamiltonian for ammonia [V. ?pirko, J. M. R. Stone, and D. Papou?ek, J. Mol. Spectrosc.60, 159–178 (1976)], a modified theory is worked out for the Δk = ±3n interactions between the inversion-rotation energy levels of NH₃ which takes into account the large amplitude inversion motion. Eighty frequencies of inversion and inversion-rotation transitions and two perturbation-allowed transitions in the ν₂ state of ¹⁴NH₃ are measured in the far-infrared region around 1 THz (≈33 cm^?1), mostly with the microwave accuracy, by the radiofrequency spectrometer with acoustic detector. By a least-squares fit of these data and the data of the infrared-microwave two-photon and infrared heterodyne measurements of the ν₂ band, a set of molecular constants for the ν₂ state of ¹⁴NH₃ is obtained which reproduces the submillimeterwave data with the accuracy of the experiment.     

The effect of LH wave on the peripheral plasma of TM-1-MH tokamak

The work is devoted to the study of the LH wave effect on the peripheral plasma of the TM-1-MH tokamak. The observed enhancement of the ion saturated current in the limiter shadow is interpreted as heating of the peripheral ions by absorption of decay waves generated in this region due to the nonlinear wave-plasma interaction.

Energy flux through thin dielectric film when total reflection is disturbed

It is shown that the energy flux through a thin dielectric film when total reflection is disturbed is brought about by the interference Poynting vector.

     

Bull-free Berge graphs are perfect

Abull is the (self-complementary) graph with verticesa, b, c, d, e and edgesab, ac, bc, bd, ce; a graphG is calledBerge if neitherG not its complement contains a chordless cycle whose length is odd and at least five. We prove that bull-free Berge graphs are perfect; a part of our argument relies on a new property of minimal imperfect graphs.This work was done while both authors were at the School of Computer Science, McGill University; support by NSERC is gratefully acknowledged.     

Bound entangled states of four qubits in the tomographic-probability representation

We discuss the entanglement phenomenon on the example of the Smolin state of four qubits. This state is known as the bound entangled state and its spin tomogram is found in an explicit form. We apply the qubit-portrait method for investigating the violation of the Bell inequalities, since this approach provides another tool to prove the entanglement properties of the four-qubit state under consideration.     

Coherent ultrafast core-hole correlation spectroscopy: x-ray analogues of multidimensional NMR

We propose two-dimensional x-ray coherent correlation spectroscopy for the study of interactions between core-electron and valence transitions. This technique may find experimental applications in the future when very high intensity x-ray sources become available. Spectra obtained by varying two delay periods between pulses show off-diagonal crosspeaks induced by coupling of core transitions of two different types. Calculations of the N1s and O1s signals of aminophenol isomers illustrate how novel information about many-body effects in electronic structure and excitations of molecules can be extracted from these spectra.     

Ultrasonic technology for enhanced oil recovery from failing oil wells and the equipment for its implemention

A new method for the ultrasonic enhancement of oil recovery from failing wells is described. The technology involves lowering a source of power ultrasound to the bottom of the well either for a short treatment before removal or as a permanent placement for intermittent use. In wells where the permeability is above 20 mD and the porosity is greater than 15% ultrasonic treatment can increase oil production by up to 50% and in some cases even more. For wells of lower permeability and porosity ultrasonic treatment alone is less successful but high production rates can be achieved when ultrasound is applied in conjunction with chemicals. An average productivity increase of nearly 3 fold can be achieved for this type of production well using the combined ultrasound with chemical treatment technology.
