Magnetic moments and electromagnetic radii of nucleon and Δ(1232)\Delta(1232) in an extended GBE model

We derive the exchange currents of pseudoscalar, vector, and scalar mesons from Feynman diagrams, and use them to calculate the magnetic form factors of nucleon and $\Delta(1232)$. The magnetic moments and electromagnetic radii are obtained by using those form factors and the parameters determined from the masses of nucleon and $\Delta(1232)$. We find the magnetic moments and electromagnetic radii of nucleon and $\Delta(1232)$ can be produced very well in the extended Goldstone-boson-exchange model (GBE) in which all of pseudoscalar, vector and scalar meson nonet are included. The magnetic moments of $\Delta(1232)$ are closer to experiment values and results from lattice calculation than the results obtained by the model without other mesons except for pion and sigma.Comment: 15 pages,5 figure

Fractal Dimension of Disordered Submonolayers: Determination from He Scattering Data

We propose a novel method to measure the fractal dimension of a submonolayer metal adatom system grown under conditions of limited diffusivity on a surface. The method is based on measuring the specular peak attenuation of He atoms scattered from the surface, as a function of incidence energy. The (Minkowski) fractal dimension thus obtained is that of contours of constant electron density of the adatom system. Simulation results are presented, based on experimental data. A coverage dependent fractal dimension is found from a two-decade wide scaling regime.Comment: 12 pages, 4 figures, replaced with revised version.

Characterizing He 2 flow through porous materials using counterflow data

Proposed space applications, such as the cooling of infrared and x ray telescopes, have generated substantial interest in the behavior of He(2) flowing in porous materials. For design purposes, classical porous media correlations and room temperature data are often used to obtain order of magnitude estimates of expected pressure drops, while the attendant temperature differences are either ignored or estimated using smooth tube correlations. A more accurate alternative to this procedure is suggested by an empirical extension of the two fluid models. It is shown that four empirical parameters are necessary to describe the pressure and temperature differences induced by He(2) flow through a porous sample. The three parameters required to determine pressure differences are measured in counterflow and found to compare favorably with those for isothermal flow. The fourth parameter, the Gorter-Mellink constant, differs substantially from smooth tube values. It is concluded that parameter values determined from counterflow can be used to predict pressure and temperature differences in a variety of flows to an accuracy of about + or - 20 percent

Theoretical analysis of neutron and X-ray scattering data on He-3

X-ray scattering experiments on bulk liquid He-3 have indicated the possibility of the existence of a sharp collective mode at large momentum transfers. We address this issue within a manifestly microscopic theory of excitations in a Fermi fluid that can be understood as proper generalization of the time-honored theory of Jackson, Feenberg, and Campbell of excitations in He-4. We show that both neutron and X-ray data can be well explained within a theory where the high momentum excitations lie in fact inside the particle-hole continuum. "Pair fluctuations" contribute a sharpening of the mode compared to the random phase approximation (RPA). When the theoretical results are convoluted with the experimental resolution, the agreement between theory and X-ray data is quite good.Comment: submitted to JLT

Determination of Li-6 -- He-4 interaction from multi-energy scattering data

We present the first successful potential model description of Li-6 -- He-4 scattering. The differential cross-sections for three energies and the vector analyzing powers for two energies were fitted by a single potential with energy dependent imaginary components. An essential ingredient is a set of Majorana terms in each component. The potential was determined using a recently developed direct data-to-potential inversion method which is a generalisation of the IP S-matrix-to-potential inversion algorithm. We discuss the problems related to this phenomenological approach, and discuss the relationship of our results to existing and future theories.Comment: 9 pages plain LaTeX, 6 postscript figue
