Equivalence and Singularity of Gaussian Measures on the Conic Sigma-Field

The alternative: equivalence-singularity on the conic sigma-field is established for a pair of centered Gaussian distributions and a corresponding criterion is given. The behavior of the logarithmic variation is established for the Radon–Nikodym derivative on the conic sigma-subfield. Bibliography: 6 titles.     

PERIODIC ENVIRONMENTS AND PERIODIC HARVESTING

ABSTRACT. We consider autonomous population models under periodic harvesting and population models in periodic environments and seek conditions under which there is an asymptotically stable periodic solution.     

Influence of the Type of a Ligand on the Intensity of Luminescence of Ln3+ Ions in Aqueous Solutions

The luminescence characteristics of hydrated Ln³⁺ ions and their complexes with some acidic ligands have been investigated. The possibility of determining the stability of the complexes of lanthanides in solutions from the intensity of luminescence bands is shown. The influence of the characteristic features of the f-electron shell of Ln³⁺ on the formation of the spectrochemical series is discussed.     

On Coercive Estimates for Solutions of Linear Systems of Hydrodynamic Type

Local and nonlocal coercive estimates in Lebesgue, Hölder, and Morrey–Campanato spaces are proved for solutions of linear stationary systems of hydrodynamic type. For this purpose, the technique proposed by Italian mathematicians for the study of solutions to equations and systems of elliptic and parabolic types is developed. Bibliography: 14 titles.     

Absorption and propagation of light in quaterthiophene crystals

We examine absorption of light in quaterthiophene crystals for different directions of the ray and wave-normal vector after refraction on the vacuum/crystal interface. Experimental non-normal incidence spectra are reported where different absorption bands show different behaviour as a function of the angle of incidence. This allows to identify those originating from the b_u Frenkel exciton state.     

Enhancement of measurement sensitivity in determination of changes in the shape of a wavefront by holographic lateral-shearing interferometry

A method for increasing measurement sensitivity in the visualization of dynamics of changes in wavefront shape with the use of holographic lateral-shearing interferometry is considered. At the first stage of this method, a photograph of a reference shear interferogram obtained with tuning to closely spaced fringes is recorded under linear conditions. After chemical treatment, the photograph of the reference shear interferogram is installed in exactly its initial position. At the second stage, a series of photographs of lateral-shear interferograms of the wavefront under study is recorded under nonlinear conditions using the photograph of the reference interferogram. The photographs of the lateral-shear interferograms are optically processed by two coherent beams with selection of the highest diffraction orders, which makes it possible to visualize the dynamic component of the wavefront deformation with an increase in the measurement sensitivity (the static component is excluded in this case). The effect of the degree of nonlinearity of photograph recording on the range in which the measurement sensitivity can be controlled during the optical processing of a pair of matched photographs or one double-exposure photograph of interferograms recorded at different values of a lateral shift is analyzed.     

Condensate formation and vortex generation in Bose gas upon cooling

The mechanism of transition of a Bose gas to the superfluid state via thermal fluctuations under the condition of external cooling at a temperature above the transition point is considered. The probability of formation of such critical fluctuations (instantons) is calculated; it is found that this probability increases as the system approaches the transition temperature. It is shown that the evolution of an individual instanton is impossible without the formation of vortices in its superfluid part.     

Rovibrational matrix elements of polarizability of HD, HT and DT molecules

Fresh computations of rovibrational matrix elements of the polarizability α[=(α_||+2α_⊥)/3] and the polarizability anisotropy γ(=α_||−α_⊥) of the heteronuclear isotopomers, HD, HT, and DT, of the hydrogen molecule are presented. The computations combine the most accurate polarizability functions α(R) and γ(R) (R being the bond distance) on the one hand and the most accurate adiabatic potential on the other. The calculations are extended to the product operators xα and xγ where x is the centre of mass to centre of charge separation in the heteronuclear species. The latter matrix elements are needed, additionally, for elucidating the absorption intensities of some of the zero-phonon rovibrational transitions peculiar to the heteronuclear species in the crystalline phase.
