Average and local magnetic moments on Fe atoms in microcrystalline and amorphous Fe100−xPx alloys

We have measured the concentration dependence of the average magnetic moment per Fe atom _Fe(x) in microcrystalline and amorphous Fe-P alloys obtained over a wide concentration range using electrochemical deposition. The model of local magnetic moments has been used to described _Fe(x). On the basis of this model the effects of phosphorus on the value _Fe are explained in terms of the parameters of the local environment of the Fe atom.     

Rotation in cosmology

Cosmological models for a universe with expansion and rotation are considered. In particular, we analyse some effects of the universal rotation on the observational cosmology. It is shown that pure cosmic rotation does not produce neither causality voilations, nor parallax effects, nor anisotropy of the microwave background radiation. It can be detected by studying angular dependence of standard cosmological tests, and is directly measurable via polarization observations. The latter are used to obtain experimental estimates for the direction and value of the rotation of the universeThis essay received the third award from the Gravity Research Foundation, 1991 — Ed.

Complexity of factorization and GCD computation for linear ordinary differential operators

This paper presents an algorithm of polynomial complexity for finding greatest common (right) divisors of families of linear ordinary differential operators. An algorithm is presented for factorization of operators into the product of irreducible operators with complexity significantly better than that of previously known algorithms. Estimates are given for the coefficients of the expansion of the fundamental solution of the corresponding linear differential equation.Translated from Zapiski Nauchnykh Seminarov Leningradskogo Otdeleniya Matematicheskogo Instituta im.

Three-dimensional inverse scattering of a dielectric target embedded in a lossy half-space

A modified iterative Born method is applied for three-dimensional inversion of a lossless dielectric target embedded in a lossy half-space. The forward solver employs a modified form of the extended Born method, and the half-space Green's function is computed efficiently via the complex-image technique. Example results are shown, with all scattering data based on a computational model, utilizing a rigorous forward solver distinct from that employed in the inversion. In addition, distinct gridding schemes are used in the forward and inverse solvers. Simple Tikhonov regularization is found to yield adequate results for inversion of noisy data.     

Exciton photoluminescence in doped quasi-1D structures based on silicon

The dependence of carrier density in silicon quantum wires sheathed with SiO₂ on the wire diameter and the position of impurity atoms in respect to the wire center is analyzed theoretically. It is shown that, as the diameter of wires and nanocrystals decreases, the ionization energy of a dopant increases; therefore, the free carrier density decreases, and the screening of the Coulomb attraction becomes ineffective. As a result, the photoluminescence is defined by the radiative recombination of excitons even in the case of heavily doped Si. These conclusions are supported by the data of experimental study of spectral, excitation-power, and temperature dependences of photoluminescence in porous silicon structures fabricated on lightly and heavily doped Si substrates.
