The decays and in the NJL model
The widths of the decays and
are calculated in the framework of the NJL
model. It is shown that these decays are defined by the and quark mass
difference. It leads to the suppression of these decays in comparison with the
main decay modes. In the process the intermediate
scalar state is taken into account. For the decays the
intermediate states with , and mesons
are used. Our estimates are compared with the results obtained in other works.Comment: 6 pages, 5 figures, 1 tabl
Reply to the comment on 'Validity of certain soft photon amplitudes'
We respond to the accompanying Comment on our paper, 'Validity of certain
soft photon amplitudes'. While we hope the discussion here clarifies the
issues, we have found nothing which leads to a change in the original
conclusions of our paper.Comment: 6 pages, Latex, uses ReVTeX, now publishe
Pion Polarizability in the NJL model and Possibilities of its Experimental Studies in Coulomb Nuclear Scattering
The charge pion polarizability is calculated in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model,
where the quark loops (in the mean field approximation) and the meson loops (in
the approximation) are taken into account. We show that quark loop
contribution dominates, because the meson loops strongly conceal each other.
The sigma-pole contribution plays the main role and
contains strong t-dependence of the effective pion polarizability at the region
. Possibilities of experimental test of this sigma-pole
effect in the reaction of Coulomb Nuclear Scattering are estimated for the
COMPASS experiment.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figure
A Method for Balloon Trajectory Control
This presentation was part of the session : Short CoursesSixth International Planetary Probe WorkshopA balloon trajectory control system is discussed that is under development for use on NASA's Ultra Long Duration Balloon Project. The trajectory control system exploits the natural wind field variation with altitude to generate passive lateral control forces on a balloon using a tether-deployed aerodynamic surface below the balloon. A lifting device, such as a wing on end, is suspended on a tether well beneath the balloon to take advantage of this variation in wind velocity with altitude. The wing generates a horizontal lift force that can be directed over a wide range of angles. This force, transmitted to the balloon by a tether, alters the balloon's path providing a bias velocity of a few meters per second to the balloon drift rate. The trajectory control system enables the balloon to avoid hazards, reach targets, steer around avoidance countries and select convenient landing zones. No longer will balloons be totally at the mercy of the winds. Global Aerospace Corporation tests in April 1999 of a dynamically scaled model of the trajectory control system were carried out in ground level winds up to 15 m/s. The size of the scale model was designed to simulate the behavior of the full scale trajectory control system operating at 20 km altitude. The model confirmed many aspects of trajectory control system performance and the results will be incorporated into future development.NASA Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Progra
Two-dimensional Induced Ferromagnetism
Magnetic properties of materials confined to nanometer length scales are
providing important information regarding low dimensional physics. Using
gadolinium based Langmuir-Blodgett films, we demonstrate that two-dimensional
ferromagnetic order can be induced by applying magnetic field along the
in-plane (perpendicular to growth) direction. Field dependent exchange coupling
is evident in the in-plane magnetization data that exhibit absence of
hysteresis loop and show reduction in field required to obtain saturation in
measured moment with decreasing temperature.Comment: 4 pages, 3 postscript figures, corrected paper forma
Comment on ``Validity of certain soft-photon amplitudes''
The criteria suggested by Welsh and Fearing (nucl-th/9606040) to judge the
validity of certain soft-photon amplitudes are examined. We comment on aspects
of their analysis which lead to incorrect conclusions about published
amplitudes and point out important criteria which were omitted from their
analysis.Comment: 6 pages plus 1 postscript figure, Revte
Estimation of Regional Evapotranspiration Using Remotely Sensed Land Surface Temperature. Part 1: Measurement of Evapotranspiration at the Environmental Research Center and Determination of Priestley-taylor Parameter
In order to study the distribution of evapotranspiration in the humid region using remote sensing technology, the parameter (alpha) in the Priestley-Taylor model was determined. The daily means of the parameter alpha = 1.14 can be available from summer to autumn and alpha = to approximately 2.0 in winter. The results of the satellite and the airborne sensing done on 21st and 22nd January, 1983, are described. Using the vegetation distribution in the Tsukuba Academic New Town, as well as the radiation temperature obtained by remote sensing and the radiation data observed at the ground surface, the evapotranspiration was calculated for each vegetation type by the Priestley-Taylor method. The daily mean evapotranspiration on 22nd January, 1983, was approximately 0.4 mm/day. The differences in evapotranspiration between the vegetation types were not detectable, because the magnitude of evapotranspiration is very little in winter
Production of pair in electron-positron annihilation in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model
The process is described in the framework of the
expanded NJL model in the energy region from 0.9 GeV to 1.5 GeV. The
contribution of intermediate state with vector mesons , and , where is the first radial
excitation of - meson was taken into account. Results obtained are in
satisfactory agreement with experimental data.Comment: 5 pages, 1 figure, 1 tabl
