The influence of plastic deformation on the magnetostriction constant of iron-nickel alloys

The magnetostriction constant of three iron-nickel alloys and one Fe-Ni-Co alloy was measured as a function of the plastic elongation up to about 25%. The magnetostriction constant decreases with deformation in all materials. In Fe-Ni-Co alloy the volume magnetostriction also decreases. The influence of crystallographic texture is discussed and it is shown that it is not a decisive factor. The observed decrease is explained by assuming the influence of lattice deformation on spin-orbital interaction.

Oscillations in three-reaction quadratic mass-action systems

It is known that rank-two bimolecular mass-action systems do not admit limit cycles. With a view to understanding which small mass-action systems admit oscillation, in this paper we study rank-two networks with bimolecular source complexes but allow target complexes with higher molecularities. As our goal is to find oscillatory networks of minimal size, we focus on networks with three reactions, the minimum number that is required for oscillation. However, some of our intermediate results are valid in greater generality. One key finding is that an isolated periodic orbit cannot occur in a three-reaction, trimolecular, mass-action system with bimolecular sources. In fact, we characterize all networks in this class that admit a periodic orbit; in every case, all nearby orbits are periodic too. Apart from the well-known Lotka and Ivanova reactions, we identify another network in this class that admits a center. This new network exhibits a vertical Andronov–Hopf bifurcation. Furthermore, we characterize all two-species, three-reaction, bimolecular-sourced networks that admit an Andronov–Hopf bifurcation with mass-action kinetics. These include two families of networks that admit a supercritical Andronov–Hopf bifurcation and hence a stable limit cycle. These networks necessarily have a target complex with a molecularity of at least four, and it turns out that there are exactly four such networks that are tetramolecular.     

Effect of water of crystallization on magnetic properties of MgSO4

The object of this paper has been to determine the effect of water of crystallization on magnetic properties of MgSO₄. Changes in the magnetic properties of MgSO₄ in depenedence on the number of waters of crystallization have been established from the magnetic susceptibility changes. The value obtained by measurement differs from that calculated by the additivity law. This disagreement can be explained by the presence of the thermally independent Van Vleck's polarization paramagnetism _p .The paper brings forward calculations of _p values for the individual hydrates of MgSO₄.i H₂O fori=0, 1, ..., 7. Besides, it examines what portion of the polarization paramagnetism _pi of the overall values of _pci is due to the effect of water of crystallization. On the basis of this information the deviation from the spherical symmetry, caused by hydration of the MgSO₄ molecule, has been interpreted.     

Shockley surface states on three faces of bcc iron

Strictly localized or resonance Shockley surface states have been found on the (111), (010) and (110) faces of paramagnetic bcc iron for ,¯M and ¯N points in the corresponding surface Brillouin zones. Energy, character of wave function and its damping for these states are reported. Emphasis is laid on implications of surface states in photoemission, field-electron and -ion emission, electron energy-loss or disappearance potential spectroscopy, Auger electron spectroscopy, work function, magnetic properties, electric conductivity, as well as chemisorption and catalysis.     

The dispersion relation of the charge and current compensated relativistic electron beam-plasma system

Analysing the general dispersion relation numerically, the unstable regions of the relativistic electron-beam plasma system were determined. The external parameters were varied to ensure more effective instability excitations. The full charge and current compensation presumptions lead to new synchronism predictions. The return current's slow space charge wave and return current's slow cyclotron wave are synchronous with the plasma ion wave.     

Semiempirical determination of the atom-surface interaction

We discuss three methods of determining V(z), the lateral average (G = 0 Fourier component) of the atom-surface interaction, from the bound state spectrum found in beam scattering. One method uses the Rydberg-Klein-Rees technique, which yields the width of the potential (i.e., separation of classical turning points) as a function of energy. This method incorporates also the known asymptotic form V ～ ?C₃z^?3, whereC₃ is derived from the polarizability and dielectric function of atom and solid, respectively. The second method uses a hybrid potential, constructed from a Morse potential with shifted zero of energy connected to the asymptotic form,?C₃z^?3, requiring continuity of V and $\text{d}\text{V}\text{d}\text{z}$. The third potential is a Lennard-Jones 3–9 interaction. Results are presented for H and He scattering from LiF and NaF.
