Response functions for cosmic-ray muons at various depths underground

Summary Response functions for underground muons are obtained by solving numerically the equations of hadronic cascades in the atmosphere, by assuming Feynman scaling for hadronic interactions over the whole energy region. For practical use of the response functions in cosmic-ray modulation study, calculations are made for various combinations of parameters such as zenith angle, atmospheric depth and muon threshold energy. The present response functions are consistent with cosmic-ray measurements and can be well utilized for the study on the cosmic-ray modulation.

Riassunto Si ottengono funzioni di risposta per muoni sotterranei risolvendo numericamente le equazioni per le cascate adroniche nell'atmosfera, assumendo lo scaling di Feynman per interazioni adroniche nell'intera regione di energia. Per l'uso pratico di funzioni di risposta nello studio di modulazione dei raggi cosmici, si fanno calcoli per varie combicazioni di parametri come l'angolo di zenit, la profondità atmosferica e l'energia muonica di soglia. Le attuali funzioni di risposta sono coerenti con le misurazioni dei raggi cosmici e possono essere bene utilizzate per lo studio della modulazione dei raggi cosmici.

Anisotropy of dielectric relaxation in crystal form II of poly(vinylidene fluoride)

The anisotropy of the crystalline relaxation (α relaxation) in oriented poly(vinylidene fluoride) in crystal form II has been studied. The dielectric increment Δε is analyzed on the basis of the two-site model. A linear relation between Δε/χξ and cos²θ is obtained, where χ is the degree of crystallinity, ξ is the ratio of the internal field to the applied field, and θ is the angle between the applied electric field and the molecular axis. The dipole moment changes direction only along the molecular axis in the relaxation in crystal form II; the molecular motion cannot be explained by chain rotation around the molecular axis. Possible models for the α relaxation are proposed: change in conformation with internal rotation can occur in the crystalline chains, and defects in the crystalline regions play an important role in the α relaxation.
