Universal factorized formula for the cross-section of two-particle scattering
We analyze the process of two-particle scattering with unstable particle in
an intermediate state. It was shown that the cross-section can be represented
in the universal factorized form for an arbitrary set of particles.
Phenomenological analysis of factorization effect is fulfilled.Comment: 8 pages, corrected typos. change conten
Basic Morphometric Characteristics for Antarctica and Budget of theAntarctic Ice Cover
On the foundation of the latest cartographical materials, obtained in the period of IGY and following years I. A. SUYETOVA carried out the complex of cartometrical works and received the following values : 1. The area of Antarctica. 2. The average altitude of the ice and rock surface in relation to the ocean level. 3. The volume and thickness of the ice of the ice sheet of Antarctica. 4. Perimeter of Antarctica. The valuation of the Antarctic perimeter as well as the latest glaciological facts allowed to make new attempts in calculating the budget of the Antarctic ice sheet. The analysis of facts necessary for calculation of the budget allowed to calculate maximum and average square miscalculations. The average square miscalculation shows the positive ice-budget of Antarctica. The valuation of the maximum miscalculation shows the equilibrium of ice in Antarctica
Factorization effects in a model of unstable particles
The effects of factorization are considered within the framework of the model
of unstable particles with a smeared mass. It is shown that two-particle cross
section and three-particle decay width can be described by the universal
factorized formulae for an unstable particles of an arbitrary spin in an
intermediate state. The exact factorization is caused by the specific structure
of the model unstable-particle propagators. This result is generalized to
complicated scattering and decay-chain processes with unstable particles in
intermediate states. We analyze applicability of the method and evaluate its
accuracy.Comment: 13 pages, 7 figure
Near-threshold boson pair production in the model of smeared-mass unstable particles
Near-threshold production of boson pairs is considered within the framework
of the model of unstable particles with smeared mass. We describe the principal
aspects of the model and consider the strategy of calculations including the
radiative corrections. The results of calculations are in good agreement with
LEP II data and Monte-Carlo simulations. Suggested approach significantly
simplifies calculations with respect to the standard perturbative one.Comment: 15 pages, 6 figures, minor corrections, references adde
Capture rate and neutron helicity asymmetry for ordinary muon capture on hydrogen
Applying heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory to ordinary muon capture
(OMC) on a proton, we calculate the capture rate and neutron helicity asymmetry
up to next-to-next-to-leading order. For the singlet hyperfine state, we obtain
the capture rate Gamma_0 = 695 sec^{-1} while, for the triplet hyperfine state,
we obtain the capture rate Gamma_1 = 11.9 sec^{-1} and the neutron asymmetry
alpha_1 = 0.93. If the existing formalism is used to relate these atomic
capture rates to Gamma_{liq}, the OMC rate in liquid hydrogen, then Gamma_{liq}
corresponding to our improved values of Gamma_0 and Gamma_1 is found to be
significantly larger than the experimental value, primarily due to the updated
larger value of g_A. We argue that this apparent difficulity may be correlated
to the specious anomaly recently reported for mu^- + p to n + nu_mu + gamma,
and we suggest a possibility to remove these two "problems" simply and
simultaneously by reexamining the molecular physics input that underlies the
conventional analysis of Gamma_{liq}.Comment: 14 pages, 1 figur
QED Radiative Corrections in Processes of Exclusive Pion Electroproduction
Formalism for radiative correction (RC) calculation in exclusive pion
electroproduction on the proton is presented. A FORTRAN code EXCLURAD is
developed for the RC procedure. The numerical analysis is done in the

Low-Energy Compton Scattering of Polarized Photons on Polarized Nucleons
The general structure of the cross section of scattering with
polarized photon and/or nucleon in initial and/or final state is systematically
described and exposed through invariant amplitudes. A low-energy expansion of
the cross section up to and including terms of order is given which
involves ten structure parameters of the nucleon (dipole, quadrupole,
dispersion, and spin polarizabilities). Their physical meaning is discussed in
detail. Using fixed-t dispersion relations, predictions for these parameters
are obtained and compared with results of chiral perturbation theory. It is
emphasized that Compton scattering experiments at large angles can fix the most
uncertain of these structure parameters. Predictions for the cross section and
double-polarization asymmetries are given and the convergence of the expansion
is investigated. The feasibility of the experimental determination of some of
the struture parameters is discussed.Comment: 41 pages of text, 9 figures; minor revisions prior to publication in

Towards the solution of the anomaly in shell-model calculations of muon capture
Recently many authors have performed shell-model calculations of nuclear
matrix elements determining the rates of the ordinary muon capture in light
nuclei. These calculations have employed well-tested effective interactions in
large scale shell-model studies. For one of the nuclei of interest, namely
Si, there exists recent experimental data which can be used to deduce
the value of the ratio by using the calculated matrix elements.
Surprisingly enough, all the abovementioned shell-model results suggest a very
small value () for , quite far from the PCAC prediction
and recent data on muon capture in hydrogen. We show that this rather
disturbing anomaly is solved by employing effective transition operators. This
finding is also very important in studies of the scalar coupling of the weak
charged current of leptons and hadrons.Comment: Revtex, 6 pages, 2 figs include
Radiative Corrections to in the Electroweak Standard Model
The cross-section for with arbitrary polarized
photons is calculated within the electroweak Standard Model including the
complete virtual and soft-photonic corrections. We present a
detailed numerical discussion of the radiative corrections with particular
emphasis on the purely weak corrections. These are usually of the order of
1--10\% for energies up to 1 TeV. For unpolarized or equally polarized photons
they reach almost 10\% close to threshold. The large corrections cannot be
traced back to a universal origin like the running of or the
-parameter. Apart from the energy region around the Higgs resonance
the weak corrections are widely independent
of the Higgs-boson mass.Comment: 22 pages, LaTeX (compressed, uuencoded), 20 figures as compressed

Magnetic-field-dependent zero-bias diffusive anomaly in Pb oxide-n-InAs structures: Coexistence of two- and three-dimensional states
The results of experimental and theoretical studies of zero-bias anomaly
(ZBA) in the Pb-oxide-n-InAs tunnel structures in magnetic field up to 6T are
presented. A specific feature of the structures is a coexistence of the 2D and
3D states at the Fermi energy near the semiconductor surface. The dependence of
the measured ZBA amplitude on the strength and orientation of the applied
magnetic field is in agreement with the proposed theoretical model. According
to this model, electrons tunnel into 2D states, and move diffusively in the 2D
layer, whereas the main contribution to the screening comes from 3D electrons.Comment: 8 double-column pages, REVTeX, 9 eps figures embedded with epsf,
