Isobaric analogue resonances in71As through proton elastic scattering on70Ge

The analogues of the low-lying levels in⁷¹Ge have been observed as resonances in the compound nucleus⁷¹As through proton elastic scattering on⁷⁰Ge in the energy rangeE _p=3.5 to 5.3 MeV. The excitation functions cover the analogue resonances corresponding to states upto 2.3 MeV excitation in⁷¹Ge. The sub-structures in the 5.06 MeV resonance, first observed by Temmer and co-workers have been confirmed in the present experiment. The present investigation reveals similar sub-structures in the 4.13 MeV resonance lending further support to the existence of intermediate structure near an isobaric analogue resonance. The resonance parameters and the spectroscopic factors (for the corresponding parent states) have been extracted. The results are compared with the information available from the⁷⁰Ge(d, p)⁷¹Ge reaction.     

Anomaly Problem in the N=1 Supersymmetric Electrodynamics as a Consequence of the Inconsistency of the Dimensional Reduction Method

We compare the calculation of the two-loop -function in the N=1 supersymmetric electrodynamics regularized via higher derivatives and via dimensional reduction. We show that the renormalized effective action is the same for both regularizations. But in the method of higher derivatives, unlike in the dimensional reduction, the -function defined as the derivative of the renormalized coupling constant with respect to log turns out to be purely one-loop. The anomaly problem therefore does not occur in this regularization, because in the method of higher derivatives, the diagrams with counterterm insertions make a nonzero contribution, which is evaluated exactly in all orders of the perturbation theory. When dimensional reduction is used, this contribution is zero. We argue that this result is a consequence of the mathematical inconsistency of the dimensional reduction method and that just this inconsistency leads to the anomaly problem.     

Support Varieties for Selfinjective Algebras

Support varieties for any finite dimensional algebra over a field were introduced in (Proc. London Math. Soc. 88 (3) (2004) 705–732) using graded subalgebras of the Hochschild cohomology ring. We mainly study these varieties for selfinjective algebras under appropriate finite generation hypotheses. Then many of the standard results from the theory of support varieties for finite groups generalize to this situation. In particular, the complexity of the module equals the dimension of its corresponding variety, all closed homogeneous varieties occur as the variety of some module, the variety of an indecomposable module is connected, the variety of periodic modules are lines and for symmetric algebras a generalization of Webbs theorem is true. As a corollary of a more general result we show that Webbs theorem generalizes to finite dimensional cocommutative Hopf algebras.Received November 2003Mathematics Subject Classifications (2000) Primary: 16E40, 16G10, 16P10, 16P20; Secondary: 16G70.     

Finite Lifetime Eigenfunctions of Coupled Systems of Harmonic Oscillators

We consider a vector-valued Hermite-type basis for which the eigenvalue problem associated to the operator H _A,B :=B(; _x ² )+Ax ² acting on becomes a three-terms recurrence. Here A and B are 2 × 2 constant positive definite matrices. Our main result provides an explicit characterization of the eigenvectors of H _A,B that lie in the span of the first four elements of this basis when AB BA.This revised version was published online in March 2005 with corrections to the cover date.     

Model-Independent Normalization Condition for Gamow Vectors

Two comments on the theory of Gamow states are presented. First, it is shown that Gamow states may be viewed as two resonating states which correspond to two different eigenproblems for the same real value of energy. Second, a universal normalization condition for all Gamow states is derived.     

The Order Parameter and Phase Transformations in Compounds with Ionic Stoichiometry

The paper considers instability of a symmetric linear ion chain against a spontaneous distortion that orders ions of opposite charge without a multiple change in the spacing. Transverse deformation in dense chains is observed. The dipolar interaction responsible for 3D ordering of similar structures of Cu—O chains in yttrium perovskites has been assessed. The superclose ion packing in Cu—O chains is explained by the existence of an oriented hole orbital in the electronic structure of bivalent copper. The possible role of this orbital as an additional degree of freedom leading to thermodynamic singularities at intermediate temperatures below the tetra–ortho transition temperature has been investigated.     

Pre-equilibrium dipole strength in charge asymmetric peripheral heavy-ion reactions

We report on the results obtained from the study of the ³²S + ⁶⁴Ni and ³²S + ⁵⁸Ni peripheral reactions at incident energies E _lab = 288 MeV and E _lab = 320 MeV, respectively. High-energy γ-rays were detected in an array of 8 seven-pack BaF₂ clusters. Coincidence with complex fragments detected in 12 three-stage telescopes ensured the selection of peripheral reaction events. All of the relevant reaction parameters were kept constant with the exception of the different initial dipole moment caused by the different entrance channel charge asymmetry. While for quasi-elastic events no N/Z effect was observed in the differential γ-ray multiplicities of the two reactions, for deep-inelastic events a larger dipole γ-ray emission occurs during the more N/Z asymmetric reaction. A theoretical interpretation based on a collective Bremsstrahlung analysis of the reaction dynamics is presented.

Derived Picard Groups of Finite-Dimensional Hereditary Algebras

Let A be a finite-dimensional algebra over a field k. The derived Picard group DPic _k (A) is the group of triangle auto-equivalences of D> ^b( mod A) induced by two-sided tilting complexes. We study the group DPic _k (A) when A is hereditary and k is algebraically closed. We obtain general results on the structure of DPic _k , as well as explicit calculations for many cases, including all finite and tame representation types. Our method is to construct a representation of DPic _k (A) on a certain infinite quiver ^irr. This representation is faithful when the quiver of A is a tree, and then DPic _k (A) is discrete. Otherwise a connected linear algebraic group can occur as a factor of DPic _k (A). When A is hereditary, DPic _k (A) coincides with the full group of k-linear triangle auto-equivalences of D^b( mod A). Hence, we can calculate the group of such auto-equivalences for any triangulated category D equivalent to D^b( mod A. These include the derived categories of piecewise hereditary algebras, and of certain noncommutative spaces introduced by Kontsevich and Rosenberg.
