Analytical evaluation for two-center nuclear attraction integrals over slater type orbitals by using Fourier transform method

In this study, we shall suggest analytical expressions for two-center nuclear attraction integrals over STO’s with a one-center charge distribution by using Fourier transform method. The derivation is based on partial-fraction decompositions and Taylor expansions of rational functions. Analytical expressions obtained by this method are expressed in terms of Gegenbauer, and binomial coefficients and linear combinations of STO’s. Finally, it is relatively easy to express the Fourier integral representations of two-center nuclear attraction integrals with a one-center charge distribution mentioned above as finite and infinite of series of STO’s and irregular solid harmonics which may be considered to be limiting cases of STO’s.     

Analysis of mutiple-shepers radiation and scattering problems by using a null-field integral equation approach

A systematic approach using the null-field integral equation in conjunction with the degenerate kernel is employed to solve the multiple radiation and scattering problems. Our approach can avoid calculating the principal values of singular and hypersingular integrals. Although we use the idea of null-field integral equation, we can locate the point on the real boundary thanks to the degenerate kernel. The proposed approach is seen as one kind of semi-analytical methods, since the error is attributed from the truncation of spherical harmonics. Finally, the numerical examples including one and two spheres are given to verify the validity of proposed approach.     

Study of the temperature rise induced by a focusing transducer with a wide aperture angle on biological tissue containing ribs

We used the spheroidal beam equation to calculate the sound field created by focusing a transducer with a wide aperture angle to obtain the heat deposition, and then we used the Pennes bioheat equation to calculate the temperature field in biological tissue with ribs and to ascertain the effects of rib parameters on the temperature field. The results show that the location and the gap width between the ribs have a great influence on the axial and radial temperature rise of multilayer biological tissue. With a decreasing gap width, the location of the maximum temperature rise moves forward; as the ribs are closer to the transducer surface, the sound energy that passes through the gap between the ribs at the focus decreases,the maximum temperature rise decreases, and the location of the maximum temperature rise moves forward with the ribs.     

Distribution of xp in some molecular rotational states

Developing the analysis of the distribution of the so-called posmom xp to some molecular rotational states for diatomic molecules and spherical cage molecules, we obtain posmometry (introduced recently by Bernard and Gill, 2010 [5]) of the spherical harmonics and demonstrate that it is similar to the momentum distributions of the stationary states for a one-dimensional simple harmonic oscillator. The results are not only potentially experimentally testable but also reflect a fact that the embedding of the two-dimensional spherical surface S²$S^2$ in three-dimensional flat space R³$R^3$ is physically self-consistent and appealing.

EFFECT OF MAGNETIC NANOPARTICLES ON THE MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF TYPE-II SUPERCONDUCTORS

In this paper, the effect of magnetic nanoparticles on the mechanical properties of a type-II superconductor is investigated both theoretically and numerically. Magnetic part of the pinning force associated with the interaction between a finite-size spheroidal magnetic inclusion and an Abrikosov vortex is calculated in the London approximation. It is found that the size and shape of magnetic nanoparticles result in different enhancements of vortex pinning in large-κtype-II superconductors. Meanwhile, the screening current induced by a magnetic spheroid suffer the action of Lorentz force, which will lead to prestress in the superconductor, so further numerical calculations are needed to explore the interaction between the spheroidal magnetic particle and superconductor. The distribution of displacement, stress and strain in the superconductor are finally obtained. It is shown that different sizes and shapes of nanoparticles also can change the distributions of these quantities.     

On the Neumann function and the method of images in spherical and ellipsoidal geometry

The invention of an image system for a boundary value problem adds to a significant understanding of the structure of the problem, both at the mathematical and at the physical level. In this paper, the interior and exterior Neumann functions for the Laplacian in the cases of spherical and ellipsoidal domains are represented in terms of images. Besides isolated images, the presence of the normal derivative in the Neumann condition demands an additional continuous distribution of images, which in the spherical cases, can be restricted to a one‐dimensional manifold, whereas for the ellipsoid, both a one‐dimensional and a two‐dimensional distribution of images is needed.

Verification of the spin-weighted spheroidal equation in the case of s=1

The spin-weighted spheroidal equation in the case of s = 1 is studied. By transforming the independent variables, we make it take the Schrdinger-like form. This Schrdinger-like equation is very interesting in itself. We investigate it by using super-symmetric quantum mechanics and obtain the ground eigenvalue and eigenfunction, which are consistent with the results previously obtained.     

An open-styled dielectric-lined azimuthally periodic circular waveguide for a millimeter wave traveling-wave tube

An open-styled dielectric-lined azimuthally periodic circular waveguide (ODLAP-CW) for a millimeter-wave traveling-wave tube (TWT) is proposed, which is a modified form of a dielectric-lined azimuthally periodic circular waveguide (DLAP-CW). The slow-wave characteristics of the open-styled DLAP-CW are studied by using the spatial harmonics method, which includes normalized phase velocity and interaction impedance. The complicated dispersion equations are numerically solved with MATLAB and the results are in good agreement with the simulation results obtained from HFSS. The influence of structural parameters on the RF properties is investigated based on our theory. The numerical results show that the optimal thickness of the metal rod can increase the interaction impedance, with the dielectric constant held fixed. Finally, the slow-wave characteristics and transmission properties of an open-styled structure are compared with those of the DLAP-CW. The results validate that the mode competition is eliminated in the improved structure with only a slight influence on the dispersion characteristics, which may significantly improve the stability of an open-styled DLAP-CW-based TWT, and the interaction efficiency is also improved.     

Regular and irregular geodesics on spherical harmonic surfaces

The behavior of geodesic curves on even seemingly simple surfaces can be surprisingly complex. In this paper we use the Hamiltonian formulation of the geodesic equations to analyze their integrability properties. In particular, we examine the behavior of geodesics on surfaces defined by the spherical harmonics. Using the Morales-Ramis theorem and Kovacic algorithm we are able to prove that the geodesic equations on all surfaces defined by the sectoral harmonics are not integrable, and we use Poincaré sections to demonstrate the breakdown of regular motion.
