Abstract The so-called thermal “cleaning” applied in thermoluminescence analysis allows distinguishing TL signal originating from different traps of comparable thermal depths. Here, the detailed study on the suitability of a similar approach — which can be called optical “cleaning” — for the analysis of OSL process has been carried out by means of computer modelling. The optical “cleaning” is realized by short optical stimulation applied directly after irradiation. It turns out that this approach does not help to separate signals related to various traps having similar optical cross-section (OCS) values. For some sets of trap parameters, sufficiently good reconstruction of the trap optical cross-sections can be achieved by the analysis of the conventional OSL curve obtained directly after sample irradiation, while the OSL curve analysis after “cleaning” does not provide any additional data. For other cases the analysis of both curves with and without “cleaning” leads to optical cross-section values different from those assumed in the model, but just in such situations the optical “cleaning” can be helpful. The differences between the OSL components of the conventional curve and the one obtained after “cleaning” can be used as indicators of an incompatibility of the trap parameters obtained from the OSL analysis with their actual values.

Unitarity considerations imply an upper bound on the value of the one-instanton-induced B and L violating cross-section at which multi-instanton contributions become of comparable order. The bound is inversely proportional to a sum of positive-definite terms and, most likely, keeps any reliable one-instanton cross-section exponentially suppressed.

AbstractIn GaAs, (Si,H) complexes are efficiently dissociated at 300 K by photons with energies above 3.5 eV. Their optical cross-section is 10-19-10-18 cm2. This dissociation is the result of an electronic excitation of the Si-H bond of the complex from a bonding state to an antibonding state. (Si,H) and (S,H) complexes in AlGaAs alloys are also dissociated under UV illumination with optical cross-sections similar to GaAs. In passivated 2D AlGaAs-GaAs heterostructures, the evolution of the extra sheet carrier concentration at low photon densities presents a loss of free carriers attributed to the filling of surface states. In AlGaAs and in 2D AlGaAs-GaAs heterostructures, the replacement of hydrogen by deuterium in the complexes shows that the (Si,D) and (S,D) complexes are significantly more stable than the (Si,H) and (S,H) complexes as previously found in GaAs:Si,H.

In this letter, the necessity of a more precise estimation of the data on the reaction π-p → f2(1270)n → π0π0n is mentioned. The total cross-section σ(π-p → f2(1270)n) obtained from the data on the reaction π-p → π0π0n is shown to be approximately three times smaller than that following from the π-p → π+π-n data and also four times smaller than the prediction of the one-pion-exchange model. It is very important to resolve this disagreement because the results on the reaction π-p → f2(1270)n → π0π0n are used directly for the normalization of other reaction cross-sections and determination of branching ratios for some resonances.

This paper deals with the Saint-Venant’s torsion of thin-walled isotropic nonhomogeneous open elliptical cross section whose shear modulus depends on the one of the curvilinear coordinates which define the cross-sectional area of the beam. The approximate solution of torsion problem is obtained by variational method. The usual simplification assumptions are used to solve the uniform torsion problem of bars with thin-walled elliptical cross-sections. An example illustrates the application of the derived formulae of shearing stress and torsional rigidity.

Characteristics of the jet streams over India and to its north in winter were studied with the daily vertical cross sections (1200 GMT) along 75°E from 8oN to 60°N for the period I to 15 February 1967, It was observed that there are three separate jet cores present in this latitl1de belt on most of the days, located on an average at 43°N, 31°N and 23°N. of these three, the most stable and persistent one is the second which is located between Delhi and Srinagar, at 200-mb level with an average maximum speed of 140-150 kt. The one to its south is weaker and quite variable in location as well as altitude. The jet at 31°N, therefore, has been called the primary sl1b-tropical jet over India and its characteristics studied. Based on this study, a. model cross-section has been. prepared for this STJ, The descriptions of the STJ at 23°N and also of PFJ (Polar Front Jet) at 43°N are included.

We study an eigenvalue problem with a spectral parameter in a boundary condition. The problem describes sloshing of a heavy liquid in a container, which means that the unknowns are the frequencies and modes of the liquid’s free oscillations. The question of ‘high spots’ (the points on the mean free surface, where its elevation attains the maximum and minimum values) is considered for fundamental sloshing modes in troughs of uniform cross section. For troughs, whose cross sections are such that the horizontal, top interval is the one-to-one orthogonal projection of the bottom, the following result is obtained: any fundamental eigenfunction attains its maximum and minimum values only on the boundary of the rectangular free surface of the trough.

Calculations for the total excitation cross sections of the 21S, 23S, 21P, and 23P states of He by electron impact have been carried out assuming the Born–Ochkur approximation for the scattering amplitude and a parametrization previously proposed by the authors for the total cross section. For the atomic wave functions we used LS coupling and obtained the one electron orbitals using the Xα method for three characteristic values of the parameter α. The results are compared with other experimental and theoretical calculations.

AbstractThe understanding of the domain wall (DW) dynamics along magnetic nanowires is crucial for spintronic applications. In this work, we perform a detailed analysis of the transverse DW motion along nanowires with polygonal cross-sections. If the DW displaces under a magnetic field above the Walker limit, the oscillatory motion of the DW is observed. The amplitude, the frequency of oscillations, and the DW velocity depend on the number of sides of the nanowire cross-section, being the DW velocity in a wire with a triangular cross-section one order of magnitude larger than that in a circular nanowire. The decrease in the nanowire cross-section area yields a DW behavior similar to the one presented in a cylindrical nanowire, which is explained using an analytical model based on the general kinetic momentum theorem. Micromagnetic simulations reveal that the oscillatory behavior of the DW comes from energy changes due to deformations of the DW shape during the rotation around the nanowire.

The investigations of the elastic and inelastic collisions of positrons with potassium atoms, K (1s2, 2s2, 2p6, 3s2, 3p6, 4s), are presented. The potassium target atoms are described using Clementi–Roetti wavefunctions within the framework of the one-valence-electron model. The total cross-sections which correspond to eight partial cross-sections are calculated at 34 values of the incident energy [Formula: see text] using the coupled-static approximation. The resulting total elastic, ground- and excited-positronium formation cross-sections are compared with experimental results and those calculated by other authors. In the vicinity of 6 eV, and consistent with the measurements of Parikh et al.,2 our total cross-section displays a pronounced peak. We support the conclusion of McAlinden et al.15 and Hewitt et al.14 that above about 4 eV, positronium formation is mainly into excited states. Good agreement is obtained with the total cross-section measurements of Kwan et al.1 and Parikh et al.2 Positronium formation is not important above about 50 eV.

By the use of a Regge parametrization of the one-particle inclusive cross section in the fragmentation region, an integral equation is obtained for the high-energy hadron–hadron inelastic cross section. The main assumptions used in the derivation of this integral equation are: (i) When two hadrons collide with sufficiently high energy, the elastic, inelastic, and total cross sections have the same energy dependence and (ii) Unitarity and factorization of Regge residues hold also for Reggeon–hadron 'amplitudes'. The solution of the integral equation, i.e., the function σinel(s) can be made constant or slowly increasing. For 'reasonable' values of all the parameters involved, it is in very good agreement with the high energy pp data.
