Elimination of bremsstrahlung in activation analysis by the deflection of β-particles in a magnetic field

The structureless background at X-ray and low energy -ray region, resulting from bremsstrahlung due to the stopping of -radiations, causes serious problems in nuclear spectroscopy. In this study, in order to reduce the background and therefore to increase the sensitivity of the nuclear analytical technique and the number of elements observable, a methodology is developed to deflect the -particles by a magnetic field. The experimental setup consists of a permanent magnet /1 kG/, Ge/Li/ solid-state detector, and multichannel analyzer.     

Random rotations of the Wiener path

Summary Let (W, H, ) be an abstract Wiener space and letR(w) be a strongly measurable random variable with values in the set of isometries onH. Suppose that Rh is smooth in the Sobolev sense and that it is a quasi-nilpotent operator onH for everyhH. It is shown that (R(w)h) is again a Gaussian (0, |h| _H ² )-random variable. Consequently, if (e _i ,i)W ^* is a complete, orthonormal basis ofH, then defines a measure preserving transformation, a rotation, onW. It is also shown that if for some strongly measurable, operator valued (onH) random variableR, (R(w+k)h) is (0, |h| _H ² )-Gaussian for allk, hH, thenR is an isometry and Rh is quasi-nilpotent for allHH. The relation between the stochastic calculi for these Wiener pathsw and , as well as the conditions of the inverbibility of the map are discussed and the problem of the absolute continuity of the image of the Wiener measure under Euclidean motion on the Wiener space (i.e. composed with a shift) is studied.The research of the second author was supported by the Fund for the Promotion of Research at the TechnionDedicated to the memory of Albert Badrikian     

Symmetric orbits of orthogonal veronese actions and their second order envelopes

The orbits of Lie groups acting in Euclidean spaces by isometries are extrinsically symmetric iff they are parallel, i.e. satisfy ${\overline \nabla} h =0 $ Submanifolds characterized by the integrability condition $ {\overline R}\o\ h =0 $ of this system ${\overline \nabla} h =0$ are called semi-parallel (or semi-symmetric, extrinsically); they are the 2nd order envelopes of the symmetric orbits. For the orthogonal Veronese action, corresponding to the map well-known from the algebraic geometry, all symmetric orbits will be determined, as well as their 2nd order envelopes. The results are essential for the classification of the semi-parallel submanifolds.     

On input/output stabilization of singular integrodifferential systems

In this paper we consider a class of systems described by singular integrodifferential equations. This type of systems appear, for example, in the modeling of certain aeroelastic control problems. We study these systems in frequency domain framework and show the existence of finite-dimensional stabilizing controllers. An algorithmic procedure is outlined for the construction of such controllers. In order to illustrate the numerical aspects of this algorithm, we present an example involving the classical Theodorsen model of an airfoil, which fits in the class of systems considered here.This work was supported in part by the National Science Foundation under Grants DMS-8907019 and MSS-9203418.     

The job-shop problem and immediate selection

The job-shop problem is one of the most difficult NP-hard scheduling problems. A 10×10-problem published in 1963 has been solved only recently by Carlier and Pinson using a branch and bound method. Other branch and bound algorithms have been developed recently. The efficiency of all these branch and bound methods relies on the concept of immediate selection which allows to introduce order relations on the setI of all operations to be processed on the same machine before branching. We present new algorithms for immediate selection. Among them are

1. anO(max {n logn,f})-algorithm for fixing all disjunctions induced by cliques;
2. anO(n ²)-algorithm based on concepts which are different from those used by Carlier and Pinson.

Here,n is the number of operations inI andf is the number of induced order relations.     

Some results about the spectrum of commutative Banach algebras under the weak topology and applications

LetA be a commutative Banach algebra with a nonempty spectrum A. By weak we denote the relative weak topology induced on A by (A ^*,A ^**). In this note we study some properties of the topological space (A, weak) and present some applications of the results obtained and tools used to amenability, weakly compact homomorphisms, weakly compact subsets of the spectrum of the uniform algebras and to a characterization of the synthesizable ideals of the algebraA.     

On the interpretation of random forces derived by projection operators

We study the derivation of a Langevin equation from a microscopic basis in order to elucidate the nature of the random force. We arrive at the conclusion that the consistent interpretation of the microscopic Langevin equation in terms of a stochastic differential equation (SDE) is according to I o rules. In addition, the random force is in general not Gaussian, and it is hence not completely characterized by its second moments.
