Simulation of time-resolved vibronic spectra and the possibility of analyzing molecules with similar spectral properties

The possibility of using time-resolved vibronic spectroscopy for spectral analysis of mixtures of chemical compounds with similar optical properties, when traditional methods (based on stedy-state spectra) are inefficient, is demonstrated by using the method of computer simulation. The analysis is carried out by the example of molecules of a series of polyenes (butadiene, hexadiene, octatetraene, decapentaene, and decatetraene), their various cis-and trans-rotational isomers, and phenyl-substituted polyenes. Ranges of relative concentrations of molecules similar in their spectral properties, where reliable interpretation of time-resolved spectra of mixtures and both qualitative and quantitative analyses are possible, are determined. The use of computer simulation methods for optimizing full-scale experiments in femtosecond spectroscopy is shown to hold much promise.     

Quasi-hexagonal self-organization of nanoparticles upon the laser-controlled deposition of Ga atoms

A cooperative defect-deformation (DD) mechanism is developed for the nucleation of the quasi-monodisperse ensemble of nanoparticles in the low-temperature deposition of Ga atoms in the presence of laser radiation. A comparison with experiment is carried out, and a good agreement between the theoretical and experimental results has been obtained. In particular, in accordance with the DD model, it has been found that the arrangement of nanoparticles is characterized by a latent hexagonal order, and their shape is quasi-hexagonal. It has been shown that the characteristics of the deposited ensemble of nanoparticles can be controlled with the use of an anisotropic deformation.     

MODELLING AND CONTROL WITH PIEZOACTUATORS FOR A SIMPLY SUPPORTED BEAM UNDER A MOVING MASS

In the paper, the dynamic modelling and control are presented for a simply supported beam under a moving mass. The equations of motion are obtained based on the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory by including the dynamic effect of a moving mass travelling along a vibrating path. The equations of motion are discretized by using the assumed modes method with the static deflection of the beam. In order to reduce the deflection of the beam under a moving mass, a controller with full state feedback is designed based on linearized equations of motion. Two piezoelectric actuators are bonded along the bottom of the beam at different locations determined by the minimization of an optimal cost functional. Numerical simulations are performed with respect to different constant velocities and different moving masses. The controller with two piezoelectric actuators shows excellent performance under unknown disturbances to the system.     

Functional approach to the theory of two-dimensional quantum Fermi systems in an external periodic field

The behavior of an adsorbed layer of Fermi particles in a weak external field with symmetry of the centered quadratic lattice is investigated. Instability of the weakly inhomogeneous state of the system with respect to small fluctuations in the vicinity ofa ^*=2k _F is established; herea ^* is the magnitude of the vectors of the neighbors closest to the point in the inverse lattice; k_F is the Fermi momentum.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

UniversalR-matrix for quantized (super)algebras

For quantum deformations of finite-dimensional contragredient Lie (super)algebras we give an explicit formula for the universalR-matrix. This formula generalizes the analogous formulae for quantized semisimple Lie algebras obtained by M. Rosso, A. N. Kirillov, and N. Reshetikhin, Ya. S. Soibelman, and S. Z. Levendorskii. Our approach is based on careful analysis of quantized rank 1 and 2 (super)algebras, a combinatorial structure of the root systems and algebraic properties ofq-exponential functions. We don't use quantum Weyl group.
