Secondary electron emission yield in the limit of low electron energy
Secondary electron emission (SEE) from solids plays an important role in many
areas of science and technology.1 In recent years, there has been renewed
interest in the experimental and theoretical studies of SEE. A recent study
proposed that the reflectivity of very low energy electrons from solid surface
approaches unity in the limit of zero electron energy2,3,4, If this was indeed
the case, this effect would have profound implications on the formation of
electron clouds in particle accelerators,2-4 plasma measurements with
electrostatic Langmuir probes, and operation of Hall plasma thrusters for
spacecraft propulsion5,6. It appears that, the proposed high electron
reflectivity at low electron energies contradicts to numerous previous
experimental studies of the secondary electron emission7. The goal of this note
is to discuss possible causes of these contradictions.Comment: 3 pages, contribution to the Joint INFN-CERN-EuCARD-AccNet Workshop

The present paper features the publication of an unedited manuscript by the Soviet linguist E.D. Polivanov, submitted in November 1927 by its author not for publication but just as a contribu- tion to the discussion around the so-called Abkhaz Analytical Alphabet. is graphic system was devised by the academician Nikolay Yakovlevich Marr on the basis of the Latin alphabet for the representation of all Japhetic (Caucasian) languages. In the rst section of the introduction, the main characteristics of Marr\u2019s Analytical Alphabet are presented; the second section addresses the linguistic discussion that followed its introduction in Abkhazia as the o cial alphabet in 1926 and its replacement two years later by a Latin-based alphabet. e third section gives comment on some questions of Abkhaz phonetics and transcription; the fourth is devoted to textual and editorial is- sues. e edition of the Russian text is accompanied by an English translation, prepared by Grazia Giannetta (Macerata)
Representations of solutions of the wave equation based on relativistic wavelets
A representation of solutions of the wave equation with two spatial
coordinates in terms of localized elementary ones is presented. Elementary
solutions are constructed from four solutions with the help of transformations
of the affine Poincar\'e group, i.e., with the help of translations, dilations
in space and time and Lorentz transformations. The representation can be
interpreted in terms of the initial-boundary value problem for the wave
equation in a half-plane. It gives the solution as an integral representation
of two types of solutions: propagating localized solutions running away from
the boundary under different angles and packet-like surface waves running along
the boundary and exponentially decreasing away from the boundary. Properties of
elementary solutions are discussed. A numerical investigation of coefficients
of the decomposition is carried out. An example of the field created by sources
moving along a line with different speeds is considered, and the dependence of
coefficients on speeds of sources is discussed.Comment: submitted to J. Phys. A: Math. Theor., 20 pages, 6 figure
Detectability of non-differentiable generalized synchrony
Generalized synchronization of chaos is a type of cooperative behavior in
directionally-coupled oscillators that is characterized by existence of stable
and persistent functional dependence of response trajectories from the chaotic
trajectory of driving oscillator. In many practical cases this function is
non-differentiable and has a very complex shape. The generalized synchrony in
such cases seems to be undetectable, and only the cases, in which a
differentiable synchronization function exists, are considered to make sense in
practice. We show that this viewpoint is not always correct and the
non-differentiable generalized synchrony can be revealed in many practical
cases. Conditions for detection of generalized synchrony are derived
analytically, and illustrated numerically with a simple example of
non-differentiable generalized synchronization.Comment: 8 pages, 8 figures, submitted to PR
Hard loss of stability in Painlev\'e-2 equation
A special asymptotic solution of the Painlev\'e-2 equation with small
parameter is studied. This solution has a critical point corresponding to
a bifurcation phenomenon. When the constructed solution varies slowly
and when the solution oscillates very fast. We investigate the
transitional layer in detail and obtain a smooth asymptotic solution, using a
sequence of scaling and matching procedures
Measurements of production and inelastic cross sections for p+C, p+Be, and p+Al at 60 GeV/c and p+C and p+Be at 120 GeV/c
This paper presents measurements of production cross sections and inelastic cross sections for the
following reactions: 60 GeV=c protons with C, Be, Al targets and 120 GeV=c protons with C and Be
targets. The analysis is performed using the NA61/SHINE spectrometer at the CERN Super Proton
Synchrotron. First measurements are obtained using protons at 120 GeV=c, while the results for protons at
60 GeV=c are compared with previously published measurements. These interaction cross section
measurements are critical inputs for neutrino flux prediction in current and future accelerator-based
long-baseline neutrino experiments.Authors:A. Aduszkiewicz,15 E. V. Andronov,21 T. Antićić,3 V. Babkin,19 M. Baszczyk,13 S. Bhosale,10 A. Blondel,23 M. Bogomilov,2
