On immersions ofn-dimensional Lobachevskií space in 2n-dimensional Euclidean space withn principal direction fields

In this article we prove that the principal direction fields are holonomic and use them to introduce curvilinear coordinates on an immersed region in terms of which the linear element of Lobachevskií space is written in the form where The fundamental system of equations is established for an immersion ofn-dimensional Lobachevskií space into 2n-dimensional Euclidean space withn principal direction fields for the functions _i and, and a way of constructing an arbitrary local analytic immersion is shown.Translated from Ukrainskií Geometricheskií Sbornik, No. 28, pp. 3–8, 1985.     

Theory of surface spin-exchange recombination of spin-polarized hydrogen

Calculations of the two-atom surface recombination rate for spinpolarized atomic hydrogen are carried out. Both the plane-wave Born approximation (PWBA) and the -dimensional distorted-wave model are employed. The field dependence forB=4 to 10 Tesla, and the temperature dependence for 0.2<T<1 K are examined for systems initially consisting of equal numbers ofa- andb-state atoms. The rates are analyzed with respect to para- and ortho-H₂ production, and to recombination to various vibrational and rotational states of H₂. The PWBA gives reasonable agreement with experiment with respect to the field-dependence and ortho-para production, but predicts an overall rate a factor of 40 above experiment. The -dimensional model underestimates the rate by a factor of 10³ and yields poorer agreement with experiment than the PWBA for the field-dependence and ortho-para production ratio. These results point out the need for a proper many-body treatment.     

Threshold anomaly in doubletn-d scattering

The behaviour of the doubletn-d scattering phase shift ₂(k) at energies close to the three-particle threshold is studied analytically and numerically. The scattering parameters possess an anomaly associated with the low energy of the singletN-N virtual state. The anomaly manifests itself both as a bend in the energy dependence of the functionk cot(Re ₂) in the range around 0.5 MeV and in the nonstandard behaviour of the break-up cross section near the threshold.     

Investigation of oxyhemoglobin in leukaemic patients

Oxyhemoglobin from human normal adults and from leukaemic patients has been studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy to investigate the possibility to distinguish, through differences in the Fe²⁺ electronic structure, normals and leukaemic patients.     

Cubic surfaces in AG(3, q) and projective planes of order q 3

Spread sets of projective planes of order q ³ are represented as sets of q ³ points in A AG(3, q ³). A line through the origin in A can be interpreted as a space A ₀ AG(3, q), and the spread set induces a cubic surface L in A ₀. If the projective plane is a semifield plane of dimension 3 over its kernel, then L has the property that it misses a plane of A ₀. Determining all such surfaces L leads to a complete classification of the semifield planes of order q ³, whose spread sets are division algebras of dimension 3.An alternative proof of a result due to Menichetti, that finite division algebras of dimension 3 are associative or are twisted fields, follows with the classification.     

Properties of nonlinear waves in dissipative-dispersive media with instability

Wave processes in dissipative-dispersive media with instability described by a fourth-order nonlinear evolution equation are considered. Analytic solutions in the form of solitary and cnoidal waves are obtained. The existence of a critical value of the dispersion coefficient beyond which an initial disturbance (in particular, white noise) is transformed into a structure is demonstrated by numerical modeling.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 4, pp. 130–136, July–August, 1990.     

Instability of the boundary layer on a curved surface

The excitation of instability of the boundary layer on a curved surface in the limit R (R is the Reynolds number) is analyzed.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Mekhanika Zhidkosti i Gaza, No. 1, pp. 176–179, January–February, 1990.I am grateful to O.

Crystal structure and vibrational spectra of hydrazinium (2+) tri-μ-fluoro bis[pentafluorozirconate (IV)] fluoride and vibrational spectra of its hafnium analogue

Monoclinic (N₂H₆)₃Zr₂F₁₃·F crystallizes in space group P2₁-C ₂ ² (No. 4) with unit cell dimensionsa=5.670(1),b=10.984(2),c=10.601(2) Å,=93.88(1)°,V=658.7(4) ų andZ=2. Two different types of N₂H₆ ²⁺ ions are present. One is involved in strong H-bonds to F^– ions in infinite chains running along the a axis (the shortest N-F distance is 2.437(5) Å), and the other links the structure through weaker bi- and trifurcated H-bonds to fluorine ligands of the Zr₂F₁₃ ^5– ions. The N-N bond lengths range from 1.430(5) to 1.446(5) Å with apparently no meaningful correlation to the type of N₂H₂ ²⁺ ions. The Zr₂F₁₃ ^5– ions have very nearly C₂ point symmetry and are formed by joining two distorted bicapped trigonal prisms of ZrF₈-units through a common face. Distances of Zr-F terminal bonds range from 2.015(2) to 2.112(2) Å and of bridging bonds from 2.133(2) to 2.212(2) Å. (N₂H₆)₃Hf₂F₁₃·F is isomorphous. The vibrational spectra of the two compounds are nearly identical, with the exception of a strong infrared band, which is assigned to a stretching mode with the moving central atom within the anion. The anion part of the spectrum is simple, showing broad unresolved bands. The cation part shows two types of N₂H₆ ^– ions. H-Bonding is strongly present in the spectra, but no simple correlations with the H-bond strength is evident.

Impulse systems with fixed moments of shocks of general position: The structure of the set of moments of the shocks

Ordinary differential equations with impulse action are considered at fixed moments of time when finite limits points are admitted to the set of moments of the shocks. The topological structure of this set is clarified: it must be resolvable, in particular nowhere dense in R.Translated from Ukrainskii Matematicheskii Zhurnal, Vol. 42, No. 3, pp. 378–383, March, 1990.
