Thermal diffusion of envelope solitons on anharmonic atomic chains

We study the motion of envelope solitons on anharmonic atomic chains in the presence of dissipation and thermal fluctuations. We consider the continuum limit of the discrete system and apply an adiabatic perturbation theory which yields a system of stochastic integro-differential equations for the collective variables of the ansatz for the perturbed envelope soliton. We derive the Fokker-Planck equation of this system and search for a statistically equivalent system of Langevin equations, which shares the same Fokker-Planck equation. We undertake an analytical analysis of the Langevin system and derive an expression for the variance of the soliton position Var[x _s ] which predicts a stronger than linear time dependence of Var[x _s ] (superdiffusion). We compare these results with simulations for the discrete system and find they agree well. We refer to recent studies where the diffusion of pulse solitons were found to exhibit a superdiffusive behaviour on longer time scales.Received: 28 June 2004, Published online: 26 November 2004PACS: 05.10.Gg Stochastic analysis methods - 05.45.Yv Solitons - 05.40.-a Fluctuation phenomena, random processes, noise, and Brownian motion - 05.50. + q Lattice theory and statistics     

可溶性汞化苯乙烯－丙烯酸甲酯共聚物的合成

用自由基溶液降合方法制备一系列苯乙烯－丙烯酸甲酯线型共聚物，用核磁共振测定了苯基在共聚物中的百分比，在该共聚物的四氢呋喃溶液中，用三氟乙酸汞在共聚物的苯环上进行亲电取代反应，得到可溶性汞化共聚物，由于这类泵化共的可溶于四氢呋喃，二氯甲烷等溶剂，用重沉淀法多次提纯，得到了纯度很高，溶解性较好的含重金属二价汞的共聚物，用红外光谱仪测定共聚物上的汞基团，用原子吸收定量测试共聚中的汞的百分聚代率，结果表明     

Determination of low dose concentration profiles in solids by means of (n,p) and (n, α) reactions

The isotopes³He,⁶Li,⁷Be and¹⁰B exhibit extremely large cross sections, between 1 and 48 kilobarn, for (n, p) or (n, α) reactions with thermal neutrons. Together with now available extracted thermal neutron fluxes of 10⁽ n·cm⁻²·sec⁻¹ or more, these reactions present a highly sensitive method of detecting the mentioned light elements in any heavy matrix material. Through the experimentally determined energy losses of the emitted protons or α-particles, also well resolved depth profiles can be obtained, as demonstrated here for some relevant examples from semiconductor and fusion technology.     

Determination of the average lifetime of bottom hadrons

We have determined the average lifetime of hadrons containing b quarks produced in e⁺e^? annihilation to be
