Massive liquid Ar and Xe detectors for direct Dark Matter searches
A novel experiment for direct searches of the Dark Matter with liquid argon
double-phase chamber with a mass of liquid Ar up to several hundred tons is
proposed. To suppress the b-, g- and n0- backgrounds, the comparison of
scintillation and ionization signals for every event is suggested. The addition
in liquid Ar of photosensitive Ge(CH3)4 or C2H4 and suppression of triplet
component of scintillation signals ensures the detection of scintillation
signals with high efficiency and provides a complete suppression of the
electron background. For the detection of photoelectrons and ionization
electrons, highly stable and reliable GEM detectors must be used.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figures, 1 tabl
Nuclear magnetic susceptibility of metals with magnetic impurities
We consider the contribution of magnetic impurities to the nuclear magnetic
susceptibility and to the specific heat of a metal. The impurity
contribution to the magnetic susceptibility has a behaviour, and the
impurity contribution to the specific heat has a behaviour, both in an
extended region of temperatures . In the case of a dirty metal the RKKY
interaction of nuclear spins and impurity spins is suppressed for low
temperatures and the main contribution to and is given by their
dipole-dipole interaction.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figures, REVTE
Non-radially symmetric solutions to the Ginzburg-Landau equation
We study an atom with finitely many energy levels in contact with a heat bath consisting of photons (black body radiation) at a temperature . The dynamics of this system is described by a Liouville operator, or thermal Hamiltonian, which is the sum of an atomic Liouville operator, of a Liouville operator describing the dynamics of a free, massless Bose field, and a local operator describing the interactions between the atom and the heat bath. We show that an arbitrary initial state which is normal with respect to the equilibrium state of the uncoupled system at temperature converges to an equilibrium state of the coupled system at the same temperature, as time tends to $+ \infty
Strong coupling in the Kondo problem in the low-temperature region
The magnetic field dependence of the average spin of a localized electron
coupled to conduction electrons with an antiferromagnetic exchange interaction
is found for the ground state. In the magnetic field range
( is the Kondo temperature) there is an inflection point, and in the
strong magnetic field range , the correction to the average spin
is proportional to . In zero magnetic field, the interaction
with conduction electrons also leads to the splitting of doubly degenerate spin
impurity states
On collapse of wave maps
We derive the universal collapse law of degree 1 equivariant wave maps
(solutions of the sigma-model) from the 2+1 Minkowski space-time,to the
2-sphere. To this end we introduce a nonlinear transformation from original
variables to blowup ones. Our formal derivations are confirmed by numerical
simulations.Comment: 1 figur
Collapse of an Instanton
We construct a two parameter family of collapsing solutions to the 4+1
Yang-Mills equations and derive the dynamical law of the collapse. Our
arguments indicate that this family of solutions is stable. The latter fact is
also supported by numerical simulations.Comment: 17 pages, 1 figur
