A note of a modular equation of Ramanujan–Selberg continued fraction

The Ramanujan Journal - We show that if $$E/\mathbb {Q}$$ is an elliptic curve with a rational p-torsion for $$p=2$$ or 3, then there is a congruence relation between Ramanujan’s tau function...     

Some Properties of Solutions to the Novikov Equation with Weak Dissipation Terms

In this paper, we investigate the Novikov equation with weak dissipation terms. First, we give the local well-posedness and the blow-up scenario. Then, we discuss the global existence of the solutions under certain conditions. After that, on condition that the compactly supported initial data keeps its sign, we prove the infinite propagation speed of our solutions, and establish the large time behavior. Finally, we also elaborate the persistence property of our solutions in weighted Sobolev space.     

Observation of isomeric states in197Bi

The high spin states of¹¹⁹Te, populated in¹¹⁰Pd(¹³C,4n) and¹¹⁰Pd(¹²C,3n) reactions, have been studied through -ray spectroscopy. The level scheme has been established upto a spin of 55/2. Three-quasiparticle states, based on g² _7/2h_11/2 and g_7/2d_5/2h_11/2 configurations, have been identified. The 35/2 and 39/2 states are suggested to be the fully aligned states constituted by five valence h_11/2 ³, g_7/2, d_5/2 quasiparticles.     

Origin and manifestation of the anharmonic potential felt by an ion-cloud in an actual Paul trap

The anharmonic potential felt by a single-species ions confined in a rf quadrupole trap which results from a non-ideal trap configuration and the charge distribution of the ion cloud is studied. The rf resonance-absorption spectra are explained by a Duffing oscillator and a representation of the line-shape parameter is derived. For > 0.77, the electric signals will exhibit hysteresis. The relation with the anharmonic potential is discussed.
