Effects of small external magnetic fields on the hyperfine field of iron in iron metal above the curie temperature: A new method for studying critical phenomena

By applying magnetic fields up to 2 kG, the equation of state and the critical dynamics of a spin system near its critical point can be studied with the Mössbauer effect. As an example, the equation of state near the Curie temperature of iron is investigated yielding the critical exponent =4.84±0.15.     

Three-body Coulomb effects in neutral-particle-exchange singularity

In a three-body model with Coulomb interactions the Faddeev equations for the Alt-Grassberger-Sandhas transition operators are used to find the leading term of the neutron-transfer amplitude near the exchange singularity in the cos plane. We derive formulae containing three-body Coulomb effects for the renormalization of the second-order exchange pole in the calculation of observables, such as the cross section and polarizations.     

Production of light superpartners in π0 radiative decays

The production rate of light photinos in radiative pion decay \(\pi ^0 \to \gamma \tilde \gamma \tilde \gamma\) is calculated. Experimental constraints on masses and mass splittings of scalar quarks imply the following upper bound on the decay rate \(BR(\pi ^0 \to \gamma \tilde \gamma \tilde \gamma ) \lesssim 10^{ - 16}\) .     

Slowly relaxing tunneling states in neutron-irradiated quartz: A study of the internal friction at audio-frequencies

The internal friction of two neutron-irradiated quartz samples was measured at audio-frequency as a function of temperature. This is an extension of acoustic measurements to much lower frequencies and thus to much longer time scales. A temperature independent behaviour has been observed and is discussed in the framework of the tunnelling model. One of the major assumptions of this model regarding the tunnelling states with long relaxation time could be verified for neutron-irradiated quartz.     

Formation of patchy surface overlayers alkali adsorption and alkali carbon monoxide and oxygen coadsorption on Ru (0001) and Ru(10\overline 1 0)

The retarding-potential and LEED methods are used for obtaining information about the structure and uniformity of alkali (K and CS) and alkali-coadsorbate (CO and O) layers on Ru(0001) and Ru surfaces at 300 K. It was established that for alkali layers on the anisotropic Ru surface and for mixed coadsorbate layer the shape of the retarding potential curves, used for the work function measurements, becomes anomalous which indicates coexistence of patches of different work function on the surface. LEED data on these patchy surfaces showed the formation of a variety of ordered structures depending on the coadsorbate coverages. On the basis of the existing theory a simple mathematical simulation was performed in an attempt to interpret the observed changes in the retarding potential curves. The possible changes of this curves, induced by the formation of patches with varying contribution to the total retarding potential signal and the advantage of the retarding field method for determination the uniformity of surface overlayers are discussed.     

Pseudo-cross-conjugated mesomeric betaines. 1. Synthesis of pseudo-cross-conjugated mesomeric betaines from quinoxaline derivatives

A new method for the synthesis of pseudo-cross-conjugated mesomeric betainic heterocyclic compounds with an angular nitrogen atom has been developed consisting in the reaction of 1,4-dielectrophile — -carbethoxy-2-(3-chloro)quinoxalylacetonitrile with azoles. Experimental regularities have been studied and a reaction mechanism has been proposed including the stage of formation of an ylide from a quaternary azolium salt. A pseudo-crossconjugated mesomeric betainic heterocyclic compound containing a thiazole ring compound has been synthesized for the first time.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 11, pp. 1528–1533, November, 1992.     

Synthesis and investigation of the mesomorphic properties of pyran derivatives

4-[(5,6-Dihydro-2H-pyran-4-yl)methoxy]benzylidene-4-alkoxyanilines, which have the properties of smectic liquid crystals, were synthesized. The effect of the pyran ring in the benzylidene component and the length of the aliphatic radical in the aniline component on the type and thermal stability of the meso phase was ascertained.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 3, pp. 327–328, March, 1992.

Calculation of exclusive processes with baryons

Using the nucleon andΔ ₃₃-resonance wave functions found out in previous papers [14, 15] we calculate the electromagnetic and weak nucleon formfactors, the transition formfactorγ \(\bar N\) Δ and the decay widths of charmonium levels³ S ₁,³ P ₂ and³ P ₁ into \(\bar N\) N and \(\bar \Delta \) Δ.     

Relativistic correction to the triton binding energy in the framework of relativistic Hamiltonian dynamics

The relativistic correction to the triton binding energy approximated to the order (v/c)² is calculated in the framework of relativistic Hamiltonian dynamics. We discuss the generator representation of the Poincaré group for three relativistic particles and its connection with the Feynman diagrams in the infinite-momentum frame (the light-front dynamics). The relativistic correction enhances the attraction in the three-nucleon system. The five-channel calculation with the Reid soft-core potential yeilds the result =–0.54 MeV, which is governed mainly by theD-wave contribution. TheS-wave contributions to are only –0.10 MeV.
