Numerical modelling of the formation process of planets from protoplanetary cloud
Evolution of the plane protoplanetary cloud, consisting of a great number of gravitationally interacting and uniting under collision bodies (protoplanets) moving in the central field of a large mass (the Sun or a planet), is considered. It is shown that in the course of protoplanetary cloud evolution the ring zones of matter expansion and compression occur with the subsequent development leading to formation of planets, rotating about their axes mainly directly. The principal numerical results were obtained through digital simulation of planetary accumulation
Electric dipole moment of the electron in YbF molecule
Ab initio calculation of the hyperfine, P-odd, and P,T-odd constants for the
YbF molecule was performed with the help of the recently developed technique,
which allows to take into account correlations and polarization in the
outercore region. The ground state electronic wave function of the YbF molecule
is found with the help of the Relativistic Effective Core Potential method
followed by the restoration of molecular four-component spinors in the core
region of ytterbium in the framework of a non-variational procedure. Core
polarization effects are included with the help of the atomic Many Body
Perturbation Theory for Yb atom. For the isotropic hyperfine constant A,
accuracy of our calculation is about 3% as compared to the experimental datum.
The dipole constant Ad (which is much smaller in magnitude), though better than
in all previous calculations, is still underestimated by almost 23%. Being
corrected within a semiempirical approach for a perturbation of 4f-shell in the
core of Yb due to the bond making, this error is reduced to 8%. Our value for
the effective electric field on the unpaired electron is 4.9 a.u.=2.5E+10 V/cm.Comment: 7 pages, REVTE
Enhancement of the electric dipole moment of the electron in PbO
The a(1) state of PbO can be used to measure the electric dipole moment of
the electron d_e. We discuss a semiempirical model for this state, which yields
an estimate of the effective electric field on the valence electrons in PbO.
Our final result is an upper limit on the measurable energy shift, which is
significantly larger than was anticipated earlier: .Comment: 4 pages, revtex4, no figures, submitted to PR
Using Molecules to Measure Nuclear Spin-Dependent Parity Violation
Nuclear spin-dependent parity violation arises from weak interactions between
electrons and nucleons, and from nuclear anapole moments. We outline a method
to measure such effects, using a Stark-interference technique to determine the
mixing between opposite-parity rotational/hyperfine levels of ground-state
molecules. The technique is applicable to nuclei over a wide range of atomic
number, in diatomic species that are theoretically tractable for
interpretation. This should provide data on anapole moments of many nuclei, and
on previously unmeasured neutral weak couplings
Enhancement of the electric dipole moment of the electron in BaF molecule
We report results of ab initio calculation of the spin-rotational Hamiltonian
parameters including P- and P,T-odd terms for the BaF molecule. The ground
state wave function of BaF molecule is found with the help of the Relativistic
Effective Core Potential method followed by the restoration of molecular
four-component spinors in the core region of barium in the framework of a
non-variational procedure. Core polarization effects are included with the help
of the atomic Many Body Perturbation Theory for Barium atom. For the hyperfine
constants the accuracy of this method is about 5-10%.Comment: 8 pages, REVTEX, report at II International Symposium on Symmetries
