Scaling Approach to the Phase Diagram of Quantum Hall Systems
We present a simple classification of the different liquid and solid phases
of quantum Hall systems in the limit where the Coulomb interaction between the
electrons is significant, i.e. away from integral filling factors. This
classification, and a criterion for the validity of the mean-field
approximation in the charge-density-wave phase, is based on scaling arguments
concerning the effective interaction potential of electrons restricted to an
arbitrary Landau level. Finite-temperature effects are investigated within the
same formalism, and a good agreement with recent experiments is obtained.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures; to be published in Europhys. Lett.; new version

Experimental determination of the turbulence in a liquid rocket combustion chamber
The intensity of turbulence and the Lagrangian correlation coefficient for a liquid rocket combustion chamber were determined experimentally using the tracer gas diffusion method. The results indicate that the turbulent diffusion process can be adequately modeled by the one-dimensional Taylor theory; however, the numerical values show significant disagreement with previously accepted values. The intensity of turbulence is higher by a factor of about two, while the Lagrangian correlation coefficient which was assumed to be unity in the past is much less than unity
Surface-cooling effects on compressible boundary-layer instability
The influence of surface cooling on compressible boundary layer instability is discussed theoretically for both viscous and inviscid modes, at high Reynolds numbers. The cooling enhances the surface heat transfer and shear stress, creating a high heat transfer sublayer. This has the effect of distorting and accentuating the viscous Tollmien-Schlichting modes to such an extent that their spatial growth rates become comparable with, and can even exceed, the growth rates of inviscid modes, including those found previously. This is for moderate cooling, and it applies at any Mach number. In addition, the moderate cooling destabilizes otherwise stable viscous or inviscid modes, in particular triggering outward-traveling waves at the edge of the boundary layer in the supersonic regime. Severe cooling is also discussed as it brings compressible dynamics directly into play within the viscous sublayer. All the new cooled modes found involve the heat transfer sublayer quite actively, and they are often multi-structured in form and may be distinct from those observed in previous computational and experimental investigations. The corresponding nonlinear processes are also pointed out with regard to transition in the cooled compressible boundary layer. Finally, comparisons with Lysenko and Maslov's (1984) experiments on surface cooling are presented
Gravity field information from Gravity Probe-B
The Gravity Probe-B Mission will carry the Stanford Gyroscope relativity experiment into orbit in the mid 1990's, as well as a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver whose tracking data will be used to study the earth gravity field. Estimates of the likely quality of a gravity field model to be derived from the GPS data are presented, and the significance of this experiment to geodesy and geophysics are discussed
Systematic limits on sin^2{2theta_{13}} in neutrino oscillation experiments with multi-reactors
Sensitivities to sin^2{2theta_{13}} without statistical errors (``systematic
limit'') are investigated in neutrino oscillation experiments with multiple
reactors. Using an analytical approach, we show that the systematic limit on
sin^2{2theta_{13}} is dominated by the uncorrelated systematic error sigma_u of
the detector. Even in an experiment with multi-detectors and multi-reactors, it
turns out that most of the systematic errors including the one due to the
nature of multiple sources is canceled as in the case with a single reactor
plus two detectors, if the near detectors are placed suitably. The case of the
KASKA plan (7 reactors and 3 detectors) is investigated in detail, and it is
explicitly shown that it does not suffer from the extra uncertainty due to
multiple reactors.Comment: 26 pages, 10 eps-files, revtex
