Production of Polarized Vector Mesons off Nuclei
Using the light-cone QCD dipole formalism we investigate manifestations of
color transparency (CT) and coherence length (CL) effects in electroproduction
of longitudinally (L) and transversally (T) polarized vector mesons. Motivated
by forthcoming data from the HERMES experiment we predict both the A and Q^2
dependence of the L/T- ratios, for rho^0 mesons produced coherently and
incoherently off nuclei. For an incoherent reaction the CT and CL effects add
up and result in a monotonic A dependence of the L/T-ratio at different values
of Q^2. On the contrary, for a coherent process the contraction of the CL with
Q^2 causes an effect opposite to that of CT and we expect quite a nontrivial A
dependence, especially at Q^2 >> m_V^2.Comment: Revtex 24 pages and 14 figure
Radiative Tau Decays with One Pseudoscalar Meson
We have calculated the decay . We present
the photon energy spectrum, the meson-photon invariant mass spectrum and the
integrated rate as a function of a photon energy cut or an invariant mass cut.
Both the internal bremsstrahlung and the structure dependent radiation have
been taken into account. To this aim we have parametrized the form factors
and , which determine the structure dependent radiation. Observables
especially suited for the measurement of the structure dependent form factors
are found and implications on the width of the discussed.Comment: p.20, TTP93-1, LaTe
Spin-polarized electric currents in diluted magnetic semiconductor heterostructures induced by terahertz and microwave radiation
We report on the study of spin-polarized electric currents in diluted
magnetic semiconductor (DMS) quantum wells subjected to an in-plane external
magnetic field and illuminated by microwave or terahertz radiation. The effect
is studied in (Cd,Mn)Te/(Cd,Mg)Te quantum wells (QWs) and (In,Ga)As/InAlAs:Mn
QWs belonging to the well known II-VI and III-V DMS material systems, as well
as, in heterovalent AlSb/InAs/(Zn,Mn)Te QWs which represent a promising
combination of II-VI and III-V semiconductors. Experimental data and developed
theory demonstrate that the photocurrent originates from a spin-dependent
scattering of free carriers by static defects or phonons in the Drude
absorption of radiation and subsequent relaxation of carriers. We show that in
DMS structures the efficiency of the current generation is drastically enhanced
compared to non-magnetic semiconductors. The enhancement is caused by the
exchange interaction of carrier spins with localized spins of magnetic ions
resulting, on the one hand, in the giant Zeeman spin-splitting, and, on the
other hand, in the spin-dependent carrier scattering by localized Mn2+ ions
polarized by an external magnetic field.Comment: 14 pages, 13 figure
Weak Decays in the light--front Quark Model
We study the form factors of heavy--to--heavy and heavy--to--light weak
decays using the light--front relativistic quark model. For the
heavy--to--heavy B \ra D^{(\ast)} semileptonic decays we calculate the
corresponding Isgur--Wise function for the whole kinematic region. For the
heavy--to--light B\ra P and B\ra V semileptonic decays we calculate the
form factors at ; in particular, we have derived the dependence of the
form factors on the --quark mass in the m_b \ra \infty limit. This
dependence can not be produced by extrapolating the scaling behavior of the
form factors at using the single--pole assumption. This shows that
the dependence of the form factors in regions far away from the
zero--recoil could be much more complicated than that predicted by the
single--pole assumption.Comment: 24 pages, Latex, Postscript figure included at the en
Effect of additions of zinc stearate on the properties of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets
Zinc stearate additions have been used to increase the remanence of sintered Nd-Fe-B magnets produced by the powder metallurgy without powder pressing. Zinc stearate acts as an internal lubricant, i.e., it decreases the friction forces between the particles and favors an increase in the degree of texture of the powders, which is induced by the magnetic field. It is shown that the density and the magnetic hysteresis characteristics of sintered magnets produced using additions of 0.15 wt % zinc stearate exceeds the corresponding values obtained for magnets produced without this addition at a filling density of powders in containers of more than 2.9 and 3.0 g/cm3 in dry and wet states, respectively. Using additions of zinc stearate in the amount of 0.15% with respect to the weight of the powder, magnets with a density of 7.55 g/cm3, B r = 14.02 kG, H c = 7.91 kOe, and (BH)max = 46.1 MG Oe have been produced. © 2013 Pleiades Publishing, Ltd
Rotational covariance and light-front current matrix elements
Light-front current matrix elements for elastic scattering from hadrons with
spin~1 or greater must satisfy a nontrivial constraint associated with the
requirement of rotational covariance for the current operator. Using a model
meson as a prototype for hadronic quark models, this constraint and its
implications are studied at both low and high momentum transfers. In the
kinematic region appropriate for asymptotic QCD, helicity rules, together with
the rotational covariance condition, yield an additional relation between the
light-front current matrix elements.Comment: 16 pages, [no number
