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.     

C-odd exchange in high energypp andp \bar p elastic diffraction

Following the arguments of QCD, a proposed model takes into account the significant difference ofpp andp \(\bar p\) elasticd σ/dt discovered at the ISR. An expression forC-odd exchange is discussed and comparison with data is made. Starting from the ISR energies, the model is shown to describe well the data in a wide range of transverse momenta 0≦?t≦10 (GeV/c)² (including the Coulomb-nuclear interference region). Several peculiar predictions of the model will be testable in the TeV energy range and beyond.     

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.     

Laser-pulse fluctuations due to thermal self-action in a turbulent atmosphere

Conclusions Refractive-index fluctuations caused by heating alter the intensity and phase fluctuation spectra arising from the turbulence. The large-scale part of the spectra is weakened, whereas the small-scale part is strengthened, and the spatial-frequency range in which the fluctuations are attenuated becomes narrower as the beam energy increases. Correspondingly, the fluctuation structure functions alter. For values of the arguments in those functions less than the radius of the first Fresnel zone , the thermal nonlinearity causes increases in the structural functions D_, with the energy. For , the dependence of D_, on energy is nonmonotone, with the fluctuations at first weakened but then strengthened. The reduction in fluctuation variance and the improvement in coherence is less pronounced over long lines than on short ones. The range in which geometrical optics can be used to derive the fluctuations is independent of the nonlinearity and is defined by k₂z/2k /4. The trend to the diffraction asymptote becomes slower as the nonlinearity increases.Atmospheric Physics Institute, Academy of Sciences of the USSR.

On FMR modes in bubble domain lattices

Two solutions of the problem of non-uniform ferromagnetic resonance in a hexagonal bubble domain lattice are presented under the simplifying assumption of lattice period much smaller than the film thickness. Fine divisions of the lattice cell into supposedly uniform subdomains render sets of linear equations for the local amplitudes which are solved numerically. Analytical solution of the time-dependent magnetostatic (Walker-mode) problem is obtained by expansion in simple elliptic functions similar to that suggested by Sigal. The results support, respectively, the interpretation of FMR experiments derived by Klem and Kaczér from a crude (minimal) subdivision of the elementary cell, and the three-mode dipolar-field model recently proposed by the author on a largely intuitive basis.     

Killing vectors of vacuum space times and electromagnetic four potentials

A conjecture is formulated about the connection between isometries of vacuum space times and the existence of corresponding space times with electromagnetic fields for which the structure of electromagnetic four potentials is readily predicted. One example is presented showing how this conjecture works, three others are only commented.     

Semi-insulating electrical properties of undoped inp after heat treatment in a phosphorus atmosphere

Nominally undoped InP wafers have been annealed in a phosphorus atmosphere under a pressure of about 5 bar at temperatures of 900 °C for about 80 h. It was found that the electrical properties of the samples changed considerably after this treatment. A room temperature resistivity of up to 2×10⁷cm (semi-insulating behaviour) was obtained in the bulk of the samples. The resistivity finally obtained depends on the starting carrier concentration of the untreated samples. The Hall coefficient and Hall mobility have been measured up to 600 °C. The results can be interpreted in terms of a deep electronic level (E _A=0.63 ... 0.65 eV below the conduction band). The Hall coefficient was always found to be negative resulting in a Hall mobility of 1.4 to 4.9×10³ cm²/Vs. The highest resistivity in nominally undoped bulk InP so far reported in the literature [1] was =3.6 × 10⁵cm. Therefore, this paper demonstrates for the first time that a really semi-insulating behaviour of >10⁷ cm can be achieved for bulk InP with the purity of nominally undoped material (10¹⁵ to 10¹⁶cm^–3).     

Textural analysis of extruded materials with rhombohedral structure

A textural analysis of extruded rods of material with tetradymite (Bi₂Te₃) structure is conducted by constructing the distribution of the pole density of the (0001) and (1120) planes. The distribution of the poles of the planes is represented by a solid of revolution, and the pole density, which is a function of the angle () of the deviation of the normals to h_i from the extrusion axis, is determined by the diffraction method of specimen inclination using the diffracted ray intensity. It proves possible to identify textural components, and to determine how many there are and the degree of perfection of this method. A technique is worked out for the quantitative estimate of the average values of the components of the conductivity tensor in the grains, and the contribution of the texture to the macroscopic properties of the material is analyzed. To investigate the thin layers (for example, the layerwise distribution of texture in rods of rectangular cross section) we used the method of inverse pole diagrams, where the probability of coincidence of the h_i plane with the working surface of the specimen is analyzed.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 12, pp. 33–39, December, 1989.     

Martensitic transformations in Ti (Ni,Fe) alloys

In this work we used x-ray structural analysis to investigate the martensitic transformations (MTs)B2R andRB19 in Ti(Ni, Fe) alloys containing 1, 2.5, 4, 5 at. % Fe, and the effect of heat treatment on the MT temperatures and sequence. In the majority of cases, it was found that the MTB2R proceeds through a two-phase region (+R). Heat treatment leads to a narrowing of the temperature interval of the existence of the two-phase region, weakly affects the onset temperatures of the MTsB2R T_R andRB19 M_s, and sharply increases the temperature-of the end of the MT M_e. The existence of the two-phase region is related to the two MT channelsB2R andB2B19 initially intrinsic to the allovs of the given compositions.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii, Fizika, No. 12, pp. 19–22, December, 1989.
