On the theory of magnetic field dependence of heat conductivity in dielectric in isotropic model
Phonon polarization in a magnetic field is analyzed in isotropic model. It is
shown, that at presence of spin-phonon interaction phonon possess circular
polari-zation which causes the appearance of heat flux component perpendicular
both to temperature gradient and magnetic field.Comment: 5 pages, 0 figure
Pressure Evolution of the Ferromagnetic and Field Re-entrant Superconductivity in URhGe
Fine pressure () and magnetic field () tuning on the ferromagnetic
superconductor URhGe are reported in order to clarify the interplay between the
mass enhancement, low field superconductivity (SC) and field reentrant
superconductivity (RSC) by electrical resistivity measurements. With increasing
, the transition temperature and the upper critical field of the low field
SC decrease slightly, while the RSC dome drastically shifts to higher fields
and shrinks. The spin reorientation field also increases. At a
pressure GPa, the RSC has collapsed while the low field SC persists
and may disappear only above 4 GPa. Via careful studies of the
inelastic resistivity term, it is demonstrated that this drastic change
is directly related with the dependence of the effective mass which
determines the critical field of the low field SC and RSC on the basis of
triplet SC without Pauli limiting field.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figures, to appear in Journal of the Physical Society of

Nonlocal effects in Fock space
If a physical system contains a single particle, and if two distant detectors
test the presence of linear superpositions of one-particle and vacuum states, a
violation of classical locality can occur. It is due to the creation of a
two-particle component by the detecting process itself.Comment: final version in PRL 74 (1995) 4571; 76 (1996) 2205 (erratum
Langmuir Wave Generation Through A Neutrino Beam Instability
A standard version of a kinetic instability for the generation of Langmuir
waves by a beam of electrons is adapted to describe the analogous instability
due to a beam of neutrinos. The interaction between a Langmuir wave and a
neutrino is treated in the one-loop approximation to lowest order in an
expansion in in the standard electroweak model.
It is shown that this kinetic instability is far too weak to occur in a
suggested application to the reheating of the plasma behind a stalled shock in
a type II supernova (SN). This theory is also used to test the validity of a
previous analysis of a reactive neutrino beam instability and various
shortcomings of this theory are noted. In particular, it is noted that
relativistic plasma effects have a significant effect on the calculated growth
rates, and that any theoretical description of neutrino-plasma interactions
must be based directly on the electroweak theory. The basic scalings discussed
in this paper suggest that a more complete investigation of neutrino-plasma
processes should be undertaken to look for an efficient process capable of
driving the stalled shock of a type II SN.Comment: 23 pages, incl. 5 postscript figure
A method for determining landing runway length for a STOL aircraft
Based on data obtained from flight tests of the augmentor wing jet STOL research aircraft, a method is proposed for determining the length of the landing runway for powered-lift STOL aircraft. The suggested method determines runway landing length by summing three segments: the touchdown-dispersion distance, the transition distance from touchdown to application of brakes, and the stopping distance after brakes are applied. It is shown how the landing field length can be reduced either through improved autoland system design or by providing the pilot with appropriate information to allow him to identify a "low probability" long or short landing and to execute a go-around. The proposed method appears to determine a safe runway landing length for the STOL application and offers the potential for reducing runway length if great emphasis is placed on a short-runway capability. FAR Parts 25 and 121 appear conservative and suitable for the situation where no great emphasis is placed on reducing the runway length requirement
On the order of summability of the Fourier inversion formula
In this article we show that the order of the point value, in the sense of Łojasiewicz, of a tempered distribution and the order of summability of the pointwise Fourier inversion formula are closely related. Assuming that the order of the point values and certain order of growth at infinity are given for a tempered distribution, we estimate the order of summability of the Fourier inversion formula. For Fourier series, and in other cases, it is shown that if the distribution has a distributional point value of order k, then its Fourier series is e.v. Cesàro summable to the distributional point value of order k+1. Conversely, we also show that if the pointwise Fourier inversion formula is e.v. Cesàro summable of order k, then the distribution is the (k+1)-th derivative of a locally integrable function, and the distribution has a distributional point value of order k+2. We also establish connections between orders of summability and local behavior for other Fourier inversion problems
Strict detector-efficiency bounds for n-site Clauser-Horne inequalities
An analysis of detector-efficiency in many-site Clauser-Horne inequalities is
presented, for the case of perfect visibility. It is shown that there is a
violation of the presented n-site Clauser-Horne inequalities if and only if the
efficiency is greater than n/(2n-1). Thus, for a two-site two-setting
experiment there are no quantum-mechanical predictions that violate local
realism unless the efficiency is greater than 2/3. Secondly, there are n-site
experiments for which the quantum-mechanical predictions violate local realism
whenever the efficiency exceeds 1/2.Comment: revtex, 5 pages, 1 figure (typesetting changes only
