Direct and inverse estimates for a new family of linear positive operators

In the present paper we introduce a new family of linear positive operators and study some direct and inverse results in simultaneous approximation.     

Conditions of stability of magnetic sublattices at exchange mixing of states with different spins

The conditions of compatibility of the magnetic sublattice hypothesis with the requirements of quantum theory have been derived. These conditions imply the presence of (even weak) magnetic anisotropy and a macroscopic number of spins in the sublattice.     

Modification of Nuclear Decay Constant in the Finite Space

Hyperfine Interactions - The natural garnets from almandine (Fe3Al2Si3O12)–pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12) series with the iron to magnesium atomic ratio ranging from 0.2 to 1 were characterised and...     

Investigation of anode and cathode jets influence on electric arc properties with current up to 500 kA

A number of phenomena connected with the formation of electrode jets in discharges in hydrogen at a current of 10/sup 5/-10/sup 6/ A, a current growth rate of 10/sup 10/ A/s, an initial pressure 0.1-4.0 MPa, and a discharge gap length of 5-40 mm were studied. After the secondary breakdown, the jets are observed through a discharge semitransparent channel, widening with velocity (4-7) /spl middot/ 10/sup 2/ m/s. Shockwave formation was detected at the interaction of jets with the surrounding gas and the opposite electrode. Plasma vapor pressure of metal near the end of the tungsten cathode 70 /spl mu/s after initiation of a discharge was 180 MPa. Thus, magnitude of brightness temperature was 59 /spl middot/ 10/sup 3/ K, with an average charge of ions-m~=3.1, and a concentration of metal vapors n=5.3/spl middot/10/sup 19/ cm/sup -3/. While those at the end of the anode 90 /spl mu/s after initiation of discharge: m~=2.6, n=7.4/spl middot/10/sup 19/ cm/sup -3/. Probable reasons of high-voltage drops near the electrodes (the summarized magnitude of which is /spl sim/1 kV) are discussed on the basis of experimental data. For the first time, the shadow method registered symmetric ejection of material from the all-cathode surface the maximum discharge current was observed.
