Nonlinearity of vacuum reggeons and exclusive diffractive production of vector mesons at HERA
The processes of exclusive photo- and electroproduction of vector mesons
(770), (1020) and (3096) at collision energies and transferred momenta squared are considered in
the framework of a phenomenological Regge-eikonal scheme with nonlinear Regge
trajectories in which their QCD asymptotic behavior is taken into account
explicitly. By comparison of available experimental data from ZEUS and H1
Collaborations with the model predictions it is demonstrated that corresponding
angular distributions and integrated cross-sections in the above-mentioned
kinematical range can be quantitatively described with use of two -even
vacuum Regge trajectories. These are the "soft" pomeron dominating the high
energy reactions without a hard scale and the "hard" pomeron giving an
essential contribution to photo- and electroproduction of heavy vector mesons
and deeply virtual electroproduction of light vector mesons.Comment: 25 pages, 12 figure
Equilibrium and dynamics of a trapped superfluid Fermi gas with unequal masses
Interacting Fermi gases with equal populations but unequal masses are
investigated at zero temperature using local density approximation and the
hydrodynamic theory of superfluids in the presence of harmonic trapping.
We derive the conditions of energetic stability of the superfluid
configuration with respect to phase separation and the frequencies of the
collective oscillations in terms of the mass ratio and the trapping frequencies
of the two components. We discuss the behavior of the gas after the trapping
potential of a single component is switched off and show that, near a Feshbach
resonance, the released component can still remain trapped due to many-body
interaction effects. Explicit predictions are presented for a mixture of Li
and K with resonant interaction.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figure
OIM analysis of microstructure and texture of a TRIP assisted steel after static and dynamic deformation
TRIP-assisted steel with a composition of 0.2%C, 1.6%Mn, 1.5%Al was studied in the undeformed state, after the application of 10 and 30 % static tensile strain parallel to rolling the direction of the sheet and after dynamic (Hopkinson) fracture test. Detailed examination of the microstructure and microtexture by means of electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) was carried out in order to quantify the microstructural constituents and to study the strain distribution. The microtexture evolution and the distribution of the specific texture components between the BCC and FCC phases were studied as a function of the external strain and the strain mode-static or dynamic. The strain localization and strain distribution between the structural constituents were quantified based on local misorientation maps. The full constraint Taylor model was used to predict the texture changes in the material and the results were compared to the experimental findings. Comparing the local misorientation data it was found that at low strains the ferrite accommodates approximately 10 times more deformation than the retained austenite. The strain localizes initially on the BCC-FCC phase boundaries and is then spread in the BCC constituents (ferrite and bainite) creating a deformation skeleton in the BCC phase.
It was found that the observed texture changes in the measured retained austenite texture after deformation do not correspond exactly to the model prediction. The austenite texture components which were predicted by the Taylor model were not found in the measured austenite texture after deformation which means that they are first transformed to martensite, which is considered as an indication for the selective transformation of austenite under strain
The Schwarzschild black hole as a point particle
The description of a point mass in general relativity (GR) is given in the
framework of the field formulation of GR where all the dynamical fields,
including the gravitational field, are considered in a fixed background
spacetime. With the use of stationary (not static) coordinates non-singular at
the horizon, the Schwarzschild solution is presented as a point-like field
configuration in a whole background Minkowski space. The requirement of a
stable -causality stated recently in [J.B.Pitts and W.C.Schieve, Found.
Phys., v. 34, 211 (2004)] is used essentially as a criterion for testing
configurations.Comment: LATEX, 8 pages, no figure
Frequency Locking in Spatially Extended Systems
A variant of the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation is used to investigate the
frequency locking phenomena in spatially extended systems. With appropriate
parameter values, a variety of frequency-locked patterns including flats,
fronts, labyrinths and fronts emerge. We show that in spatially
extended systems, frequency locking can be enhanced or suppressed by diffusive
coupling. Novel patterns such as chaotically bursting domains and target
patterns are also observed during the transition to locking
Worldsheet Matter Superfields on Half-Shell
In this paper we discuss some of the effects of using "unidexterous"
worldsheet superfields, which satisfy worldsheet differential constraints and
so are partly on-shell, i.e., on half-shell. Most notably, this results in a
stratification of the field space that reminds of "brane-world" geometries.
Linear dependence on such superfields provides a worldsheet generalization of
the super-Zeeman effect. In turn, non-linear dependence yields additional
left-right asymmetric dynamical constraints on the propagating fields, again in
a stratified fashion.Comment: 15 pages, 2 figures; minor algebraic correction
Collective excitations of trapped one-dimensional dipolar quantum gases
We calculate the excitation modes of a 1D dipolar quantum gas confined in a
harmonic trap with frequency and predict how the frequency of the
breathing n=2 mode characterizes the interaction strength evolving from the
Tonks-Girardeau value to the quasi-ordered, super-strongly
interacting value . Our predictions are obtained
within a hydrodynamic Luttinger-Liquid theory after applying the Local Density
Approximation to the equation of state for the homogeneous dipolar gas, which
are in turn determined from Reptation Quantum Monte Carlo simulations. They are
shown to be in quite accurate agreement with the results of a sum-rule
approach. These effects can be observed in current experiments, revealing the
Luttinger-liquid nature of 1D dipolar Bose gases.Comment: 5 pages, 2 EPS figures, RevTeX
Optical orientation of spins in GaAs:Mn/AlGaAs quantum wells via impurity-to-band excitation
The paper reports optical orientation experiments performed in the narrow
GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells doped with Mn. We experimentally demonstrate a
control over the spin polarization by means of the optical orientation via the
impurity-to-band excitation and observe a sign inversion of the luminescence
polarization depending on the pump power. The g factor of a hole localized on
the Mn acceptor in the quantum well was also found to be considerably modified
from its bulk value due to the quantum confinement effect. This finding shows
the importance of the local environment on magnetic properties of the dopants
in semiconductor nanostructures
