Hyperbolic chaos in self-oscillating systems based on mechanical triple linkage: Testing absence of tangencies of stable and unstable manifolds for phase trajectories
Dynamical equations are formulated and a numerical study is provided for
self-oscillatory model systems based on the triple linkage hinge mechanism of
Thurston -- Weeks -- Hunt -- MacKay. We consider systems with holonomic
mechanical constraint of three rotators as well as systems, where three
rotators interact by potential forces. We present and discuss some quantitative
characteristics of the chaotic regimes (Lyapunov exponents, power spectrum).
Chaotic dynamics of the models we consider are associated with hyperbolic
attractors, at least, at relatively small supercriticality of the
self-oscillating modes; that follows from numerical analysis of the
distribution for angles of intersection of stable and unstable manifolds of
phase trajectories on the attractors. In systems based on rotators with
interacting potential the hyperbolicity is violated starting from a certain
level of excitation.Comment: 30 pages, 18 figure
Features of pulsed synchronization of a systems with a tree-dimensional phase space
Features of synchronization picture in the system with the limit cycle
embedded in a three-dimensional phase space are considered. By the example of
Ressler system and Dmitriev - Kislov generator under the action of a periodic
sequence of delta - function it is shown, that synchronization picture
significantly depends on the direction of pulse action. Features of
synchronization tons appeared in these models are observed.Comment: 16 pages, 11 figure
Nonlinear mirror modes in the presence of hot electrons
A non-perturbative calculation of the gyrotropic pressures associated with
large-scale mirror modes is performed, taking into account a finite, possibly
anisotropic electron temperature. In the small-amplitude limit, this leads to
an extension of an asymptotic model previously derived for cold electrons. A
model equation for the profile of subcritical finite-amplitude large-scale
structures is also presented
Behavior of tumors under nonstationary theraphy
We present a model for the interaction dynamics of lymphocytes-tumor cells
population. This model reproduces all known states for the tumor. Futherly,we
develop it taking into account periodical immunotheraphy treatment with
cytokines alone. A detailed analysis for the evolution of tumor cells as a
function of frecuency and theraphy burden applied for the periodical treatment
is carried out. Certain threshold values for the frecuency and applied doses
are derived from this analysis. So it seems possible to control and reduce the
growth of the tumor. Also, constant values for cytokines doses seems to be a
succesful treatment.Comment: 6 pages, 7 figure
Peltier effect in normal metal-insulator-heavy fermion metal junctions
A theoretical study has been undertaken of the Peltier effect in normal metal
- insulator - heavy fermion metal junctions. The results indicate that, at
temperatures below the Kondo temperature, such junctions can be used as
electronic microrefrigerators to cool the normal metal electrode and are
several times more efficient in cooling than the normal metal - heavy fermion
metal junctions.Comment: 3 pages in REVTeX, 2 figures, to be published in Appl. Phys. Lett.,

Dark matter-wave solitons in the dimensionality crossover
We consider the statics and dynamics of dark matter-wave solitons in the
dimensionality crossover regime from 3D to 1D. There, using the nonpolynomial
Schr\"{o}dinger mean-field model, we find that the anomalous mode of the
Bogoliubov spectrum has an eigenfrequency which coincides with the soliton
oscillation frequency obtained by the 3D Gross-Pitaevskii model. We show that
substantial deviations (of order of 10% or more) from the characteristic
frequency ( being the longitudinal trap
frequency) are possible even in the purely 1D regime.Comment: Phys. Rev. A, in pres
