    Dim radio-quiet neutron star (DRQNS) 1E 1207.4-5209 is one of the most heavily examined isolated neutron stars. Wide absorption lines were observed in its spectrum obtained by both XMM-Newton and Chandra X-ray satellites. These absorption lines can be interpreted as a principal frequency centered at 0.7 keV and its harmonics at 1.4, 2.1 and possibly 2.8 keV. The principal line can be formed by resonant proton cyclotron scattering leading to a magnetic field which is two orders of magnitude larger than the perpendicular component of the surface dipole magnetic field (B) found from the rotation period (P) and the time rate of change in the rotation period (\.{P}) of 1E 1207.4-5209. Besides, age of the supernova remnant (SNR) G296.5+10.0 which is physically connected to 1E 1207.4-5209 is two orders of magnitude smaller than the characteristic age (τ\tau=P/2\.{P}) of the neutron star. These huge differences between the magnetic field values and the ages can be explained based on a B-decay model. If the decay is assumed to be exponential, the characteristic decay time turns out to be several thousand years which is three orders of magnitude smaller than the characteristic decay time of radio pulsars represented in an earlier work. The lack of detection of radio emission from DRQNSs and the lack of point sources and pulsar wind nebulae in most of the observed SNRs can also be partly explained by such a very rapid exponential decay. The large difference between the characteristic decay times of DRQNSs and radio pulsars must be related to the differences in the magnetic fields, equation of states and masses of these isolated neutron stars.Comment: 13 pages, 1 figur

    Influences of neutron star parameters on evolutions of different types of pulsar; evolutions of anomalous X-ray pulsars, soft gamma repeaters and dim isolated thermal neutron stars on the P-\.{P} diagram

    Influences of the mass, moment of inertia, rotation, absence of stability in the atmosphere and some other parameters of neutron stars on the evolution of pulsars are examined. It is shown that the locations and evolutions of soft gamma repeaters, anomalous X-ray pulsars and other types of pulsar on the period versus period derivative diagram can be explained adopting values of B<1014<10^{14} G for these objects. This approach gives the possibility to explain many properties of different types of pulsar.Comment: 18 pages, 1 figur

    Plasmon Resonance in а-С : Н Films Modified with Platinum Nanoclusters

    Optical density spectra of amorphous diamond-like films of hydrogenated carbon modified with plati-num impurity (a-C : H) have been investigated. a-C : H films were prepared by the method of ion plasma magnetron co-sputtering of graphite and platinum in argon-hydrogen atmosphere. Platinum con-tent in the films was varied from 0 to 9 at. %. In the optical spectra of a-C : H films with different Pt content the peaks of resonance absorption in the range from 496 to 501 nm were found, whilst in the spec-trum of a-C : H films the absorption peak is absent. The appearance of these absorption peaks in a-C : H films is explained by resonance plasmon vibrations of free electrons in platinum nanocl usters. The average diameter of the Pt nanoclusters was estimated using electromagnetic theory of Mie, and it is ~ 5 nm.

    An integrable discretization of KdV at large times

    Full text link
    An "exact discretization" of the Schroedinger operator is considered and its direct and inverse scattering problems are solved. It is shown that a differential-difference nonlinear evolution equation depending on two arbitrary constants can be solved by using this spectral transform and that for a special choice of the constants it can be considered an integrable discretization of the KdV equation at large times. An integrable difference-difference equation is also obtained.Comment: 12 page
