Rate coefficients for rovibrational transitions in H_2 due to collisions with He
We present quantum mechanical and quasiclassical trajectory calculations of
cross sections for rovibrational transitions in ortho- and para-H_2 induced by
collisions with He atoms. Cross sections were obtained for kinetic energies
between 10^-4 and 3 eV, and the corresponding rate coefficients were calculated
for the temperature range 100<T<4000 K. Comparisons are made with previous
calculations.Comment: 21 pages, 2 figures, AAS, eps
Studies on the distribution and standing crop of algae at Muthupet estuary, Tamilnadu
Studies were made on the occurrence and standing crop of algae from six localities in Muthupet estuary for a period of six months from March to August 1988. Totally 19 afgae belonging to the groups Chlorophyta, Phaeophyta, Rhodophyta and Cyanophyta were recorded. The green algae numbered more than other algae in all the stations. The biomass estimated for Gracilaria verruocsa, Hypnea valentiae and Enleromorpha spp. varied from 905 to 1220 gm/m2, 740 to 980. gm/m2 and 53 to 72 gm/m' respectively

Novel magnetic phases in a Gd2Ti2O7 pyrochlore for a field applied along the [100] axis
We report on longitudinal and transverse magnetisation measurements performed
on single crystal samples of Gd2Ti2O7 for a magnetic field applied along the
[100] direction. The measurements reveal the presence of previously unreported
phases in fields below 10 kOe in an addition to the higher-field-induced phases
that are also seen for H//[111], [110], and [112]. The proposed H-T phase
diagram for the [100] direction looks distinctly different from all the other
directions studied previously.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figure
Inelastic collisions of ultra-cold heteronuclear molecules in an optical trap
Ultra-cold RbCs molecules in high-lying vibrational levels of the
a ground electronic state are confined in an optical trap.
Inelastic collision rates of these molecules with both Rb and Cs atoms are
determined for individual vibrational levels, across an order of magnitude of
binding energies. A simple model for the collision process is shown to
accurately reproduce the observed scattering rates
Magnetic phase diagram of the antiferromagnetic pyrochlore Gd2Ti2O7
Gd2Ti2O7 is a highly frustrated antiferromagnet on a pyrochlore lattice,
where apart from the Heisenberg exchange the spins also interact via
dipole-dipole forces. We report on low-temperature specific heat measurements
performed on single crystals of Gd2Ti2O7 for three different directions of an
applied magnetic field. The measurements reveal the strongly anisotropic
behaviour of Gd2Ti2O7 in a magnetic field despite the apparent absence of a
significant single-ion anisotropy for Gd3+. The H-T phase diagrams are
constructed for H//111], H//[110] and H//[112]. The results indicate that
further theoretical work beyond a simple mean-field model is required.Comment: 4 figure
