Effect of the anisotropy of monocrystalline silicon mechanical properties on the dynamic characteristics of a micromechanical gyroscope
The aim of the research was to determine the effect of temperature on mechanical properties of a micromechanical gyroscope with the sensing element mounted on a silicon wafer, with the crystallographic orientation of (100) (110) (111). The research is of current relevancy since the metrological characteristics that depend on the eigenfrequencies over the full temperature range are to be controlled. The temperature-modal analysis of the micromechanical gyroscope model was performed with ANSYS program. The temperature dependence for eigenfrequencies was obtained. The dependence of the scale factor on temperature for the most temperature-independent variant of sensor positioning on the wafer was determined. The developed mathematical model was used to find the forms of the output oscillations of the gyroscope
Role of the rho meson in the description of pion electroproduction experiments at JLab
We study the p(e,e' pi+)n reaction in the framework of an effective
Lagrangian approach including nucleon, pi and rho meson degrees of freedom and
show the importance of the rho-meson t-pole contribution to sigmaT, the
transverse part of cross section. We test two different field representations
of the rho meson, vector and tensor, and find that the tensor representation of
the rho meson is more reliable in the description of the existing data. In
particular, we show that the rho-meson t-pole contribution, including the
interference with an effective non-local contact term, sufficiently improves
the description of the recent JLab data at invariant mass W less 2.2 GeV and Q2
less 2.5 GeV2/c2. A ``soft'' variant of the strong piNN and rhoNN form factors
is also found to be compatible with these data. On the basis of the successful
description of both the sigmaL and sigmaT parts of the cross section we discuss
the importance of taking into account the sigmaT data when extracting the
charge pion form factor Fpi from sigmaL.Comment: 23 pages, 6 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
A thick shell Casimir effect
We consider the Casimir energy of a thick dielectric-diamagnetic shell under
a uniform velocity light condition, as a function of the radii and the
permeabilities. We show that there is a range of parameters in which the stress
on the outer shell is inward, and a range where the stress on the outer shell
is outward. We examine the possibility of obtaining an energetically stable
configuration of a thick shell made of a material with a fixed volume
Momentum distribution in heavy deformed nuclei: role of effective mass
The impact of nuclear deformation on the momentum distributions (MD) of
occupied proton states in U is studied with a phenomenological
Woods-Saxon (WS) shell model and the self-consistent Skyrme-Hartree-Fock (SHF)
scheme. Four Skyrme parameterizations (SkT6, SkM*, SLy6, SkI3) with different
effective masses are used. The calculations reveal significant deformation
effects in the low-momentum domain of states, mainly of
those lying near the Fermi surface. For other states, the deformation effect on
MD is rather small and may be neglected. The most remarkable result is that the
very different Skyrme parameterizations and the WS potential give about
identical MD. This means that the value of effective mass, being crucial for
the description of the spectra, is not important for the spatial shape of the
wave functions and thus for the MD. In general, it seems that, for the
description of MD at MeV/c, one may use any single-particle
scheme (phenomenological or self-consistent) fitted properly to the global
ground state properties.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figure
Two-Photon Excitation of Low-Lying Electronic Quadrupole States in Atomic Clusters
A simple scheme of population and detection of low-lying electronic
quadrupole modes in free small deformed metal clusters is proposed. The scheme
is analyzed in terms of the TDLDA (time-dependent local density approximation)
calculations. As test case, the deformed cluster is considered.
Long-living quadrupole oscillations are generated via resonant two-photon
(two-dipole) excitation and then detected through the appearance of satellites
in the photoelectron spectra generated by a probe pulse. Femtosecond pump and
probe pulses with intensities and
pulse duration fs are found to be optimal. The modes of
interest are dominated by a single electron-hole pair and so their energies,
being combined with the photoelectron data for hole states, allow to gather new
information about mean-field spectra of valence electrons in the HOMO-LUMO
region. Besides, the scheme allows to estimate the lifetime of electron-hole
pairs and hence the relaxation time of electronic energy into ionic heat.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figure
The Adiabatic Transport of Bose-Einstein Condensates in a Double-Well Trap: Case a Small Nonlinearity
A complete adiabatic transport of Bose-Einstein condensate in a double-well
trap is investigated within the Landau-Zener (LZ) and Gaussian Landau-Zener
(GLZ) schemes for the case of a small nonlinearity, when the atomic interaction
is weaker than the coupling. The schemes use the constant (LZ) and
time-dependent Gaussian (GLZ) couplings. The mean field calculations show that
LZ and GLZ suggest essentially different transport dynamics. Significant
deviations from the case of a strong coupling are discussed.Comment: 6 pages, 3 figures, to be published in Laser Physic
Vacuum energy in conical space with additional boundary conditions
Total vacuum energy of some quantized fields in conical space with additional
boundary conditions is calculated. These conditions are imposed on a
cylindrical surface which is coaxial with the symmetry axis of conical space.
The explicit form of the matching conditions depends on the field under
consideration. In the case of electromagnetic field, the perfectly conducting
boundary conditions or isorefractive matching conditions are imposed on the
cylindrical surface. For a massless scalar field, the semi-transparent
conditions (-potential) on the cylindrical shell are investigated. As a
result, the total Casimir energy of electromagnetic field and scalar field, per
a unit length along the symmetry axis, proves to be finite unlike the case of
an infinitely thin cosmic string. In these studies the spectral zeta functions
are widely used. It is shown briefly how to apply this technique for obtaining
the asymptotics of the relevant thermodynamical functions in the high
temperature limit.Comment: 29 pages, 2 figures, the title was changed for a more adequate one,
