The local field effects in resonance Raman scattering Structural anisotropy studies in some nematic cyanophenyl derivatives

Abstract

Different methods for the determination of the local field anisotropy in liquid crystals are analysed and the problems resulting from their application are outlined. One such method, namely that based on the comparison of the polarization of resonance Raman scattering and absorption bands is studied in more detail. The method is applied to determine the structural anisotropy for the 4-n-pentyl-(4′-cyanophenyl) derivatives of benzene, cyclohexane and bicyclooctane. To account for the difference between the optical properties of the probe and of the solvent at the wavelength of the scattered light the local field factor is treated theoretically within the framework of an anisotropic continuous dielectric medium.     

High-loop perturbative renormalization constants for Lattice QCD (II): three-loop quark currents for tree-level Symanzik improved gauge action and n f =2 Wilson fermions

The European Physical Journal C - Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory was able to get three- (and even four-) loop results for finite Lattice QCD renormalization constants. More recently, a...     

CPT symmetry in honeycomb lattices and quantum brachistochrone problem

In this paper, we have provided a matrix Hamiltonian model for honeycomb lattices and subsequently obtained the dispersion relation. Furthermore, we have constructed the C operator for the given non-Hermitian Hamiltonian model. The quadratic surfaces are sketched and the quantum Brachistochrone problem is discussed for the given honeycomb lattice model.     

A corresponding states principle-based equation for the surface tension of Alkenes

This study presents a new formula for the surface tension prediction of alkenes. As a first step, an analysis of the available data of the experimental surface tension data for alkenes was performed. The experimental data were collected, after a careful literature survey, for the following pure fluids: propene, 1-hexene, 1-heptene, 1-octene, 1-decene, 1-tetradecene, and 1-pentadecene. Then, the experimental data were regressed with the most reliable semi-empirical correlating methods based on the corresponding state theory existing in the literature. As a final step, an analysis of the available data of the experimental surface tension data for alkenes was performed starting from the two recently proposed equations for the prediction of the surface tension of refrigerants based on the corresponding states principle. To minimize the deviation between the predicted data and the experimental data and to find the optimal equation coefficients for experimental data regression, a (μ + λ)-evolution strategy was adopted. The analysis showed that the equation that gave the best results for the prediction of the surface tension of alkenes was the one with a very limited number of parameters. The finally proposed equation is very simple and gives a noticeable improvement with respect to the existing equations. It is based on the corresponding state principle, containing the acentric factor, the critical temperature, and pressure.     

“PPAS” X-RAY ABSORPTION SPECTROSCOPY IN LASER-PRODUCED ALUMINUM PLASMA

We have developed and successfully demonstrated the "point projection absorption spectroscopy (hereafter abbreviated to PPAS)" technique to record keV X-ray absorption spectra in the coronal region of laser produced aluminum plasma which provides spatial information in the corona. Absorption spectrum of the Al Ⅻ 1s²-1s2p resonant line for time delays up to 250, 500 and 750 ps after the peak of the incident laser pulse have been observed. Analysis of an absorption spectrum should allow a high spatial resolution (< 25μm) history of the absorbing ion population density to be determined. The 1-D hydro-code JB19 has been used to simulate the experiment and the predictions are compared to the observations. Such comparison can be useful in validating parts of the codes used for gain prediction on recombination X-ray laser transitions.
