Interpolation on Sparse Grids and Tensor Products of Nikol'skij–Besov Spaces

We investigate the order of convergence of periodic interpolation on sparse grids (blending interpolation) in the framework of tensor products of Nikol'skij–Besov spaces. To this end, we make use of the uniformity of the considered tensor norms and provide a unified approach to error estimates for the interpolation of univariate periodic functions from Nikol'skij–Besov spaces.

Periodic interpolation and wavelets on sparse grids

Nested spaces of multivariate periodic functions forming a non-stationary multiresolution analysis are investigated. The scaling functions of these spaces are fundamental polynomials of Lagrange interpolation on a sparse grid. The approach based on Boolean sums leads to sample and wavelet spaces of significantly lower dimension and good approximation order. The algorithms for complete decomposition and reconstruction are of simple structure and low complexity. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Resonance-like structures in10B(10B,α)16O excitation functions

Excitation functions of the¹⁰B+¹⁰B elastic scattering at 80° (c.m.) and of the¹⁰B(¹⁰B,α)¹⁶O reaction at 5° (cm.) and 175° (c.m.) have been measured simultaneously for c.m. energies between 3 and 10 MeV. Whereas the elastic scattering is varying smoothly with energy, large resonant structures of intermediate width of about 600 keV have been found for the first time near 40 MeV excitation of²⁰Ne in most reaction channels to¹⁶O.     

Investigation of structural vacancies in titanium monoxide by electron-positron annihilation

Local atomic environment of vacancies in nonstoichiometric titanium monoxide ranging in composition from TiO_0.74 to TiO_1.26 was studied by electron-positron annihilation. Analysis of the Doppler broadening spectra of the annihilation gamma line for titanium and liquid oxygen showed that positrons in titanium monoxide are trapped by titanium vacancies. Experiments revealed that the lifetime of positrons in ordered and disordered titanium monoxide TiO _y increases with increasing oxygen content y and varies from 184 to 210 ps. Data on the valence electron density permitted the prediction that the lifetime of free positrons in stoichiometric titanium monoxide is about 140 ps and the lifetime of positrons localized in an oxygen vacancy is about 170 ps. The method used to analyze the gamma-line Doppler broadening spectra makes it possible to determine the type and number of atoms around a vacancy and to investigate order-disorder phase transformations in nonstoichiometric compounds.     

Study of an order-disorder phase transition on an atomic scale: the example of decagonal Al-Ni-Co quasicrystals

In the present paper we succeeded in studying structural phase transitions from an atomistic point of view by positron annihilation Doppler broadening. This differs and is complementary to conventionally used diffraction experiments with large coherence lengths. In the exemplary case of the 1140 K order-disorder transition in decagonal Al71.5Ni14Co14.5 quasicrystals the importance of this atomistic approach and its wide scope of application is demonstrated.     

Identification of lattice vacancies on the two sublattices of SiC

The identification of atomic defects in solids is of pivotal interest for understanding atomistic processes and solid state properties. Here we report on the exemplary identification of vacancies on each of the two sublattices of SiC by making use of (i) electron irradiation, (ii) measurements of the positron lifetimes, (iii) coincident Doppler broadening studies of the positron-electron annihilation radiation, and (iv) a comparison of the experimental data with theoretical studies. After 0.3 MeV electron irradiation, carbon vacancies V(C) are identified, where, after 0.5 MeV electron irradiation, predomi-nantly silicon vacancies V(Si) are observed. After 2.5 MeV irradiation, divacancies V(Si)-V(Si) are detected. The present results are expected to be of general importance for reliable identification of defects and atomic processes in complex solids.
