Magnetic resonance of the weak organic magnet TDAE-C60

The charge transfer compound TDAE-C₆₀ (TDAE — tetrakis-dimethylamino-ethylene) is so far the only known C₆₀ based molecular ferromagnet. The ESR spectra of TDAE-C₆₀ single crystals demonstrate that freshly grown regularly shaped single crystals show at first an AFM (antiferromagnetic)-like behavior which changes upon annealing at room temperature in vacuum to a FM (ferromagnetic) one. It thus seems that annealing induces a change in the relative orientation of the distorted C ₆₀ ^? ions resulting in a change in the sign of the effective magnetic interactions between neighboring C ₆₀ ^? ions. A structural transition in the TDAE methyl protons at 250 K seems to be connected with this process. Here we review the structure, the ESR spectra, the proton NMR spectra and the¹³C NMR spectra of TDAE-C₆₀.     

Electroexcitation of nucleon resonances

In these lectures the status of electromagnetic excitation of nucleon resonances is reviewed and some of the open problems of the structure and spectroscopy of light-quark baryons are discussed. The basic formalism for describing electromagnetic processes is introduced but not derived.Lecture given at the 8th Summer School on Intermediate-Energy Physics: Hadron Dynamics at Low and Intermediate Energies, Prague, July 10–14, 1995.     

Influence of a background gas on expanding plasma clots

An expansion of finite plasma clots into the background neutral gas is studied numerically. The presented model includes the quasineutrality violation as well as the interpenetration of plasma and neutral gas at the boundary of the plasma. We estimate the region of plasma parameters where the model is correct. Space distributions of main plasma parameters, cooling of electrons and the process of inter-penetration of the plasma and the neutral gas are analysed as well as an empiric formula for electron temperature is found. Finally, it is shown that the most intensive plasma-gas inter-penetration occurs in the case where the initial plasma and gas densities are the same.     

The local characteristics of the bound states of muonic molecules

The sticking probabilities ^Jv,G- and-factors for all bound states of mesic molecules ppµ, pdµ, ptµ, ddµ, dtµ, and ttµ withJ=0 andv=0, 1 have been calculated in the adiabatic hyperspherical approach (AHSA).     

Observation of Δn=1 dielectronic recombination resonances of boronlike argon

We report here an observation ofn=1 dielectronic recombination resonances of boron-like argon in the energy region 140–195 eV. With the cooler's electron beam as a target, a resolution of approximately 0.6 eV FWHM was obtained in the observed energy range. The energies of the doubly excited states were estimated with a Hartree-Fock calculation, which indicates that the observed resonances are from Ar¹³⁺(1s²2s²2p) to Ar¹²⁺(1s²2s²3l3l) and Ar¹²⁺(1s²2s2p3l3l) transitions.     

Sharp determinants

We introduce a sharp trace Tr^# and a sharp determinant Det^#(1-z) for an algebra of operators acting on functions of bounded variation on the real line. We show that the zeroes of the sharp determinant describe the discrete spectrum of . The relationship with weighted zeta functions of interval maps and Milnor-Thurston kneading determinants is explained. This yields a result on convergence of the discrete spectrum of approximated operators.Oblatum 8-V-1995 & IX-1995On leave from CNRS, UMR 128, ENS Lyon, France     

Semileptonic decays B → (π, )eν in relativistic quark model

Quark model results for the B → π, decays are analysed, making use of the dispersion formulation of the model: The form factors at q² > 0 are expressed as relativistic invariant double spectral representation over invariant masses of the initial and final mesons through their light-cone wave functions. The dependence of the results on the quark model parameters is studied. For various versions of the quark model the ranges
