Angular momentum effect in prescission particle multiplicities for a light system by diffusion model

The effect of angular momentum on the competition between fission and particle emission during light system fission process was studied via fission diffusion model. The prescission particle multiplicities were found to increase with decreasing angular momentum. The experimental prescission proton and α particle multiplicities can be fitted for 10.6 MeV/nucleon ⁸⁴Kr(²⁷Al,binary fission) reaction with this model. Entrance channel effect found in [1] is proved to be angular momentum effect.     

Exact self-consistent plane-symmetric solutions of the equations of two interacting fields (spinor field and scalar field)

A spinor field interacting with a zero-mass neutral scalar field is considered for the case of the simplest type of direct interaction, where the interaction Lagrangian has the formL _int =1/2 ϕ_αϕ_,α F(S) whereF(S) is an arbitrary function of the spinor field invariantS=ψψ. Exact solutions of the corresponding systems of equations that take into account the natural gravitational field in a plane-symmetric metric are obtained. It is proved that the initial system of equations has regular localized soliton-type solutions only if the energy density of the zero-mass scalar field is negative as it “disengages” from interaction with the spinor field. In two-dimensional space-time the system of field equations we are studying describes the configuration of fields with constant energy densityT ₀₀ , i.e., no soliton-like solutions exist in this case.

Climatologies of tides at mid-latitudes in the lower thermosphere

Summary Time variations of the semi-diurnal and diurnal tides observed at Budrio (45°N, 12°E) in the wind structure of the lower thermosphere ((80÷110) km) throughout the period 1976–1990 are herewith represented as monthly contours of both amplitudes and phasesvs. height. The semi-diurnal tide has more marked seasonal variations, showing amplitudes generally larger than the diurnal ones ((10÷30) m/svs. (5÷15) m/s). The vertical wavelengths are longer in summer than in winter, at least below 100 km. Agreement with new numerical models for semi-diurnal tide at 50°N appears to be satisfactory.

DICSI station at KCSR and NT: Determination of optimal requirements to the formation of an SR beam using cylindrical x-ray optical zoom lenses

To modernize the DICSI station, new hardware and software have been created according to the conditions of the operating storage ring “Sibir’-2” beam channel. The recording system has been successfully tested on the operating channel of the storage ring VEPP-3 (Budker Institute of Nuclear Physics Siberian Branch, Russian Academy of Sciences, Novosibirsk) using the time-resolved “diffraction cinema” technique in studying real biological objects in the static and dynamic modes of data accumulation. At the DICSI station, structural changes in medical and biological objects are permanently investigated. The specific structure dimensions of these objects are in the nanometric range.     

The influence of crystalline grain size on the thermal stability of the Er<Subscript>0.45</Subscript>Ho<Subscript>0.55</Subscript>Fe<Subscript>2</Subscript> compound

The phase composition and the temperature dependence of the magnetization of the Er_0.45Ho_0.55Fe₂ compound in coarse-grained, microcrystalline, and submicrocrystalline states are investigated experimentally. It is found that, upon heating under vacuum, the Er_0.45Ho_0.55Fe₂ microcrystalline powder with a crystalline grain size of ∼1 μm undergoes decomposition into pure iron and rare-earth (erbium and holmium) oxides and nitrides at a temperature of 500 K. The changes observed in the phase composition of the microcrystalline powder due to annealing are confirmed by x-ray diffraction analysis. Heating of the Er_0.45Ho_0.55Fe₂ submicrocrystalline sample leads to a partial change in the phase composition. The phase composition of a large crystal (∼1 mm in size) remains unchanged upon heating to 1080 K. It is shown that the thermal stability of the Er_0.45Ho_0.55Fe₂ compound depends on the crystalline grain size. __________ Translated from Fizika Tverdogo Tela, Vol. 44, No. 6, 2002, pp. 1060–1063.

Muonium states in semiconductor crystals: Quantum-chemical calculations

The electronic structure of muonium (Mu) located at the bond-centered sites of the silicon and diamond crystals is calculated by the intermediate neglect of differential overlap method. Calculations of the electronicg- and hyperfine interaction tensors of the impurity atom are performed. The results obtained are compared to the experimental properties of “anomalous” muonium Mu^*. It is shown that the properties of Mu located at the bond-centered sites of the Si and C lattices are in qualitative agreement with the observed properties of Mu^*.     

Planar nematic anchoring on SiO-coated substrates

Summary The nematic planar anchoring is usually explained by using simple elastic models: the surface easy axis corresponds to the surface direction that minimizes the excess of nematic elastic energy. When anisotropic rough substrates are used to align nematic liquid crystals, due to the complex surface morphology, usual elastic models are not directly applicable. This paper presents quantitative topographical data of rough substrates, obtained with oblique SiO evaporation under vacuum for nematic planar anchoring. Experimental data are obtained by means of Atomic Force Microscopy and they are used to demonstrate the self-affine nature of these substrates and to relate the nematic anchoring with the anisotropy of the local fractal properties of the substrate itself.
