Asymptotic behavior of the mean square displacement of the Brownian parametric oscillator near the singular point
A parametric oscillator with damping driven by white noise is studied. The
mean square displacement (MSD) in the long-time limit is derived analytically
for the case that the static force vanishes, which was not treated in the past
work \cite{tashiro07}. The formula is asymptotic but is applicable to a general
periodic function. On the basis of this formula, some periodic functions
reducing MSD remarkably are proposed
Groebner-Shirshov basis for HNN extensions of groups and for the alternating group
In this paper, we generalize the Shirshov's Composition Lemma by replacing
the monomial order for others. By using Groebner-Shirshov bases, the normal
forms of HNN extension of a group and the alternating group are obtained
New global stability estimates for the Gel'fand-Calderon inverse problem
We prove new global stability estimates for the Gel'fand-Calderon inverse
problem in 3D. For sufficiently regular potentials this result of the present
work is a principal improvement of the result of [G. Alessandrini, Stable
determination of conductivity by boundary measurements, Appl. Anal. 27 (1988),
153-172]
The electrification of spacecraft
Physical and applied aspects of the electrification of space vehicles and natural celestial objects are discussed, the factors resulting in electrification of spacecraft are analyzed, and methods of investigating various phenomena associated with this electrification and ways of protecting spacecraft against the influence of static electricity are described. The booklet is intended for the general reader interested in present day questions of space technology
Do Present LEP Data Provide Evidence for Electroweak Corrections?
The Born approximation, based on instead of
, reproduces all electroweak precision measurements within their
accuracy. The low upper limits for the genuinely electroweak
corrections constitute one of the major achievements of LEP. The astonishing
smallness of these corrections results from the cancellation of a large
positive contribution from the heavy top quark and large negative contributions
from all other virtual particles. It is precisely the non-observation of
electroweak radiative corrections that places stringent upper and lower limits
on the top mass.Comment: 12 pages, preprint CERN-TH.6943/9
The combined effects of ionizing radiation and weightlessness on calcium and phosphorus content in the mineral fraction of the calcified tissues in the rat skeleton
Phosphorus and calcium content in the ash from skeletal bones (ribs, scapula, vertebra, and crus) of 30 rats exposed to ionizing radiation (800 rads) on the flight of the Kosmos 690 biosatellite was studied. A 10 percent decrease in ash content coefficient and 29 percent decrease in phosphorus content was found immediately after the flight, and a 9 percent decrease in phosphorus content persisted after 26 days of readaptation to terrestrial conditions
Weighted Radon transforms for which the Chang approximate inversion formula is precise
We describe all weighted Radon transforms on the plane for which the Chang
approximate inversion formula is precise. Some subsequent results, including
the Cormack type inversion for these transforms, are also given
Example of a stable wormhole in general relativity
We study a static, spherically symmetric wormhole model whose metric
coincides with that of the so-called Ellis wormhole but the material source of
gravity consists of a perfect fluid with negative density and a source-free
radial electric or magnetic field. For a certain class of fluid equations of
state, it has been shown that this wormhole model is linearly stable under both
spherically symmetric perturbations and axial perturbations of arbitrary
multipolarity. A similar behavior is predicted for polar nonspherical
perturbations. It thus seems to be the first example of a stable wormhole model
in the framework of general relativity (at least without invoking phantom thin
shells as wormhole sources).Comment: 6 pages, no figure
Formulas and equations for finding scattering data from the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map with nonzero background potential
For the Schrodinger equation at fixed energy with a potential supported in a
bounded domain we give formulas and equations for finding scattering data from
the Dirichlet-to-Neumann map with nonzero background potential. For the case of
zero background potential these results were obtained in [R.G.Novikov,
