Four-point probe measurements using current probes with voltage feedback to measure electric potentials
We present a four-point probe resistance measurement technique which uses
four equivalent current measuring units, resulting in minimal hardware
requirements and corresponding sources of noise. Local sample potentials are
measured by a software feedback loop which adjusts the corresponding tip
voltage such that no current flows to the sample. The resulting tip voltage is
then equivalent to the sample potential at the tip position. We implement this
measurement method into a multi-tip scanning tunneling microscope setup such
that potentials can also be measured in tunneling contact, allowing in
principle truly non-invasive four-probe measurements. The resulting measurement
capabilities are demonstrated for BiSbTe and Si samples
Mass distributions for nuclear disintegration from fission to evaporation
By a proper choice of the excitation energy per nucleon we analyze the mass
distributions of the nuclear fragmentation at various excitation energies.
Starting from low energies (between 0.1 and 1 MeV/nucleon) up to higher
energies about 12 MeV/n, we classified the mass yield characteristics for heavy
nuclei (A>200) on the basis of Statistical Multifragmentation Model. The
evaluation of fragment distribution with the excitation energy show that the
present results exhibit the same trend as the experimental ones.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Data and knowledge base on the basis of the expanded matrix model of their representation for the intelligent system of road-climatic zoning of territories
An extended matrix model of data and knowledge representation on the investigated area, as well as a matrix model of data representation on the territory under investigation, are proposed for the intelligent system of road-climatic zoning of territories (RCZT) - the main information technology of RCZT. A part of the West Siberian region has been selected as the investigated territory. The extended matrix model of knowledge representation is filled out by knowledge engineers with participation of highly qualified experts in the field of RCZT. The matrix model of data representation on the territory under investigation is filled out by persons concerned in RCZT of the motor-roads management system

First-principles method for calculating the rate constants of internal-conversion and intersystem-crossing transitions
A method for calculating the rate constants for internal-conversion (k(IC)) and intersystem-crossing (k(ISC)) processes within the adiabatic and Franck-Condon (FC) approximations is proposed. The applicability of the method is demonstrated by calculation of k(IC) and k(ISC) for a set of organic and organometallic compounds with experimentally known spectroscopic properties. The studied molecules were pyrromethene-567 dye, psoralene, hetero[8]circulenes, free-base porphyrin, naphthalene, and larger polyacenes. We also studied fac-Alq(3) and fac-Ir(ppy)(3), which are important molecules in organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). The excitation energies were calculated at the multi-configuration quasi-degenerate second-order perturbation theory (XMC-QDPT2) level, which is found to yield excitation energies in good agreement with experimental data. Spin-orbit coupling matrix elements, non-adiabatic coupling matrix elements, Huang-Rhys factors, and vibrational energies were calculated at the time-dependent density functional theory (TDDFT) and complete active space self-consistent field (CASSCF) levels. The computed fluorescence quantum yields for the pyrromethene-567 dye, psoralene, hetero[8]circulenes, fac-Alq(3) and fac-Ir(ppy)(3) agree well with experimental data, whereas for the free-base porphyrin, naphthalene, and the polyacenes, the obtained quantum yields significantly differ from the experimental values, because the FC and adiabatic approximations are not accurate for these molecules.Peer reviewe

Effective moment of inertia for several fission reaction systems induced by nucleons, light particles and heavy ions
Compound nucleus effective moment of inertia has been calculated for several
fission reaction systems induced by nucleons, light particles, and heavy ions.
Determination of this quantity for these systems is based upon the comparison
between the experimental data of the fission fragment angular distributions as
well as the prediction of the standard saddle-point statistical model (SSPSM).
For the systems, the two cases, namely with and without neutron emission
corrections were considered. In these calculations, it is assumed that all the
neutrons are emitted before reaching the saddle point.It should be noted that
the above method for determining of the effective moment of inertia had not
been reported until now and this method is used for the first time to determine
compound nucleus effective moment of inertia. Hence, our calculations are of
particular importance in obtaining this quantity, and have a significant rule
in the field of fission physics. Afterwards, our theoretical results have been
compared with the data obtained from the rotational liquid drop model as well
as the Sierk model, and satisfactory agreements were found. Finally, we have
considered the effective moment of inertia of compound nuclei for the systems
that formed similar compound nuclei at similar excitation energies.Comment: 9 pages, 2 Figures, 2 Table
Resonance Chiral Lagrangian analysis of decays
The hadronization structure of decays
is analyzed using Chiral Perturbation Theory with resonances, considering only
the contribution of the lightest meson resonances at leading order in the
expansion. After imposing the asymptotic behavior of vector spectral
functions ruled by QCD, unknown effective couplings are determined by fitting
the branching ratio and decay spectrum
to recent data. Predictions for the partner decay and the low-energy behavior of the cross section are also discussed.Comment: 21 pages, 5 figures, v2: Title changed, references added and

Bose-Einstein condensation of magnons under incoherent pumping
Bose-Einstein condensation in a gas of magnons pumped by an incoherent
pumping source is experimentally studied at room temperature. We demonstrate
that the condensation can be achieved in a gas of bosons under conditions of
incoherent pumping. Moreover, we show the critical transition point is almost
independent of the frequency spectrum of the pumping source and is solely
determined by the density of magnons. The electromagnetic power radiated by the
magnon condensate was found to scale quadratically with the pumping power,
which is in accordance with the theory of Bose-Einstein condensation in magnon
gases
Formation of deformation substructures in FCC crystals under the influence of point defect fluxes
The article deals with sub-structural transformations in FCC crystals under the influence of point defect fluxes. Different relationships between accumulation of point defects in crystal and substructure transformations, in particular during the process of fragmented dislocation structure formation have been received
