    Hypothesis about Enrichment of Solar System

    Full text link
    Despite significant progress in the understanding of galactic nucleosynthesis and its influence on the solar system neighborhood, challenges remain in the understanding of enrichment of the solar system itself. Based on the detailed review of multi-disciplinary literature, we propose a scenario that an event of nucleogenesis -- not nucleosynthesis (from lower nucleon numbers A to higher A) but nuclear-fission (from higher A to lower A) -- occurred in the inner part of the solar system at one of the stages of its evolution. We propose a feasible mechanism of implementation of such event. The occurrence of such event could help explain the puzzles in yet-unresolved isotopic abundances, certain meteoritic anomalies, as well as peculiarities in the solar system's composition and planetary structure. We also discuss experimental data and available results from existing models (in several relevant sub-fields) that provide support and/or appear consistent with the hypothesis.Comment: 73 pages, 31 figures. arXiv admin note: text overlap with arXiv:1610.07202, arXiv:1109.3432, arXiv:1302.6530 by other author

    Equation of State for Water in the Small Compressibility Region

    Get PDF
    The equation of state for dense fluids has been derived within the framework of the Sutherland and Katz potential models. The equation quantitatively agrees with experimental data on the isothermal compression of water under extrapolation into the high pressure region. It establishes an explicit relationship between the thermodynamic experimental data and the effective parameters of the molecular potential

    Tsunami generation by ocean floor rupture front propagation: Hamiltonian description

    Get PDF
    The Hamiltonian method is applied to the problem of tsunami generation caused by a propagating rupture front and deformation of the ocean floor. The method establishes an alternative framework for analyzing the tsunami generation process and produces analytical expressions for the power and directivity of tsunami radiation (in the far-field) for two illustrative cases, with constant and gradually varying speeds of rupture front propagation

    Constrained Reductions of 2D dispersionless Toda Hierarchy, Hamiltonian Structure and Interface Dynamics

    Full text link
    Finite-dimensional reductions of the 2D dispersionless Toda hierarchy, constrained by the ``string equation'' are studied. These include solutions determined by polynomial, rational or logarithmic functions, which are of interest in relation to the ``Laplacian growth'' problem governing interface dynamics. The consistency of such reductions is proved, and the Hamiltonian structure of the reduced dynamics is derived. The Poisson structure of the rationally reduced dispersionless Toda hierarchies is also derivedComment: 18 pages LaTex, accepted to J.Math.Phys, Significantly updated version of the previous submissio
