Low-Energy Photodisintegration of the Deuteron and Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis
The photon analyzing power for the photodisintegration of the deuteron was
measured for seven gamma-ray energies between 2.39 and 4.05 MeV using the
linearly polarized gamma-ray beam of the High-Intensity Gamma-ray Source at the
Duke Free-Electron Laser Laboratory. The data provide a stringent test of
theoretical calculations for the inverse reaction, the neutron-proton radiative
capture reaction at energies important for Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis. Our data
are in excellent agreement with potential model and effective field theory
calculations. Therefore, the uncertainty in the baryon density obtained from
Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis can be reduced at least by 20%.Comment: 5 pages, 5 figure
Nonforward anomalous dimensions of Wilson operators in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory
We present the next-to-leading order results for universal non-forward
anomalous dimensions of Wilson twist-2 operators in N=4 supersymmetric
Yang-Mills theory. The whole calculation was performed using supersymmetric
Ward identities derived in this paper together with already known QCD results
and does not involve any additional calculation of diagrams. We also considered
one particular limit of our result, which could potentially be interesting in
the context of AdS/CFT correspondence.Comment: 15 pages, references added, typos corrected, version accepted in JHE
Visible photoluminescence from SiOx films grown by low temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition
a-SiOx films of varying stoichiometry have been prepared by low temperature plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The majority of films showed photoluminescence (PL) and films prepared in a narrow range of gas flows exhibited much stronger PL after annealing. Peak PL energies ranging from the ultraviolet to the near infrared have been observed. PL, infrared and X-ray diffraction on selected samples indicate formation of Si clusters in the films. The effects of annealing on the PL properties of the films have been found to depend on initial stoichiometry of the films. © 1995
An interactive procedure of a transverse beam matching and correction in INR Linac
An application package is developed to carry out an interactive procedure for a transverse beam matching and
correction in INR Linac. The results of multiple beam profile measurements in several accelerator areas are used.
The currents in steering coils are found to suppress the beam displacement. The gradients in quadrupole lenses are
calculated to match the beam. This procedure is successfully used in accelerator tuning.Разработан пакет программ для проведения интерактивной процедуры поперечного согласования и коррекции пучка по результатам измерения профилей пучка на различных участках линейного ускорителя ИЯИ РАН.

Activation transport under quantum Hall regime in HgTe-based heterostructure
We have measured the temperature (2.9 K < T < 50 K) and magnetic field (0 T < B < 9 T) dependences of longitudinal and Hall resistivities for HgCdTe/HgTe/HgCdTe system with HgTe quantum well width of 20.3 nm. The activation analysis of the experimental magnetoresistivity traces has been used as a quantitative tool to probe inter-Landau level distances. The activation energies were determined from the temperature dependence of the longitudinal resistivity in the regions of quantized Hall plateaus (for the filling factors ν of 1, 2 and 3) and the indications of the large values of the g factor ≅ 30–75 were found
Ioffe-time distributions instead of parton momentum distributions in description of deep inelastic scattering
We argue that parton distributions in coordinate space provide a more natural
object for nonperturbative methods compared to the usual momentum distributions
in which the physics of different longitudinal distances is being mixed. To
illustrate the advantages of the coordinate space formulation, we calculate the
coordinate space distributions for valence quarks in the proton using the QCD
sum rule approach. A remarkable agreement is found between the calculated and
the experimentally measured u-quark distribution up to light-cone distances
of order fm in the proton rest frame.
The calculation for valence d quarks gives much worse results; the reasons for
this discrepancy are discussed.Comment: 24 pages plus 13 pages with figures, requires epsf.sty, revised

Double distributions and evolution equations
Applications of perturbative QCD to deeply virtual Compton scattering and
hard exclusive meson electroproduction processes require a generalization of
usual parton distributions for the case when long-distance information is
accumulated in nonforward matrix elements of quark and gluon
light-cone operators. In our previous papers we used two types of
nonperturbative functions parametrizing such matrix elements: double
distributions F(x,y;t) and nonforward distribution functions F_\zeta(X;t). Here
we discuss in more detail the double distributions (DD's) and evolution
equations which they satisfy. We propose simple models for F(x,y;t=0) DD's with
correct spectral and symmetry properties which also satisfy the reduction
relations connecting them to the usual parton densities f(x). In this way, we
obtain self-consistent models for the \zeta-dependence of nonforward
distributions. We show that, for small \zeta, one can easily obtain nonforward
distributions (in the X > \zeta region) from the parton densities: F_\zeta
(X;t=0) \approx f(X-\zeta/2).Comment: 21 pages, Latex, 8 figures. To appear in Phys. Rev.
Gluon polarization in the nucleon from quasi-real photoproduction of high-pT hadron pairs
We present a determination of the gluon polarization Delta G/G in the
nucleon, based on the helicity asymmetry of quasi-real photoproduction events,
Q^2<1(GeV/c)^2, with a pair of large transverse-momentum hadrons in the final
state. The data were obtained by the COMPASS experiment at CERN using a 160 GeV
polarized muon beam scattered on a polarized 6-LiD target. The helicity
asymmetry for the selected events is = 0.002 +- 0.019(stat.) +-
0.003(syst.). From this value, we obtain in a leading-order QCD analysis Delta
G/G=0.024 +- 0.089(stat.) +- 0.057(syst.) at x_g = 0.095 and mu^2 =~ 3
(GeV}/c)^2.Comment: 10 pages, 3 figure
The Deuteron Spin-dependent Structure Function g1d and its First Moment
We present a measurement of the deuteron spin-dependent structure function
g1d based on the data collected by the COMPASS experiment at CERN during the
years 2002-2004. The data provide an accurate evaluation for Gamma_1^d, the
first moment of g1d(x), and for the matrix element of the singlet axial
current, a0. The results of QCD fits in the next to leading order (NLO) on all
g1 deep inelastic scattering data are also presented. They provide two
solutions with the gluon spin distribution function Delta G positive or
negative, which describe the data equally well. In both cases, at Q^2 = 3
(GeV/c)^2 the first moment of Delta G is found to be of the order of 0.2 - 0.3
in absolute value.Comment: fits redone using MRST2004 instead of MRSV1998 for G(x), correlation
