Radio signals from very large showers
Radio signals from air showers with electron sizes in the range 1 x 10 to the 7th power to 2 x 10 to the 9th power were detected at 50kHz, 170kHz, and 1,647kHz at large core distances in the Akeno square kilometers air-shower array. The field strength is higher than that expected from any mechanisms hitherto proposed
Longitudinal development of muons in large air showers studies from the arrival time distributions measured at 900m above sea level
The arrival time distributions of muons with energies above 1.0GeV and 0.5GeV have been measured in the Akeno air-shower array to study the longitudinal development of muons in air showers with primary energies in the range 10 to the 17th power to 10 to the 18th power ev. The average rise times of muons with energies above 1.0GeV at large core distances are consistent with those expected from very high multiplicity models and, on the contrary, with those expected from the low multiplicity models at small core distances. This implies that the longitudinal development at atmospheric depth smaller than 500 cm square is very fast and that at larger atmospheric depths is rather slow
Arrival time distributions of electrons in air showers with primary energies above 10 (18)eV observed at 900m above sea level
Detection of air showers with primary energies above 10 to the 19th power eV with sufficient statistics is extremely important in an astrophysical aspect related to the Greisen cut off and the origin of such high energy cosmic rays. Recently, a method is proposed to observe such giant air showers by measuring the arrival time distributions of air-shower particles at large core distances with a mini array. Experiments to measure the arrival time distributions of muons were started in 1981 and those of electrons in early 1983 in the Akeno air-shower array (930 gcm cm squared atmospheric depth, 900m above sea level). During the time of observation, the detection area of the Akeno array was expanded from 1 sq km to sq km in 1982 and to 20 sq km in 1984. Now the arrival time distribution of electrons and muons can be measured for showers with primary energies above 1019eV at large core distances
Zero-temperature Phase Diagram of Two Dimensional Hubbard Model
We investigate the two-dimensional Hubbard model on the triangular lattice
with anisotropic hopping integrals at half filling. By means of a self-energy
functional approach, we discuss how stable the non-magnetic state is against
magnetically ordered states in the system. We present the zero-temperature
phase diagram, where the normal metallic state competes with magnetically
ordered states with and structures. It is shown
that a non-magnetic Mott insulating state is not realized as the ground state,
in the present framework, but as a meta-stable state near the magnetically
ordered phase with structure.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
NMR relaxation of quantum spin chains in magnetic fields
We investigate NMR relaxation rates 1/T_1 of quantum spin chains in magnetic
fields. Universal properties for the divergence behavior of 1/T_1 are obtained
in the Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid state. The results are discussed in comparison
with experimental results.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Cross-Sections for Electron Scattering Accompanied by Ionization of Inner-Shells
A method is presented to describe the electron scattering process at an ionization of inner-shell electrons. The differential cross-section with the energy transfer and the momentum transfer is calculated using the expression of the generalized oscillator strength. This cross-section and the total ionization cross-section are fairly close to the results obtained by the Gryzinski equation. The photo-absorption cross-section obtained by the present treatment shows good agreement with the experimental data in a wide range of the photon energy. Based on the present treatment, the scattering angle distribution of the primary electron is calculated
Electronic structures of CrX (X=S, Te) studied by Cr 2p soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism
Cr 2p core excited XAS and XMCD spectra of ferromagnetic CrTe
with several concentrations of =0.11-0.33 and ferrimagnetic
CrS have been measured. The observed XMCD lineshapes are found to
very weakly depend on for CrTe. The experimental results
are analyzed by means of a configuration-interaction cluster model calculation
with consideration of hybridization and electron correlation effects. The
obtained values of the spin magnetic moment by the cluster model analyses are
in agreement with the results of the band structure calculation.The calculated
result shows that the doped holes created by the Cr deficiency exist mainly in
the Te 5porbital of CrTe, whereas the holes are likely to be in Cr
3d state for CrS.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, accepted for publication in Physical Review
