    Possible quantum kinematics. II. Non-minimal case

    Full text link
    The quantum analogs of the N-dimensional Cayley-Klein spaces with different combinations of quantum and Cayley-Klein structures are described for non-minimal multipliers, which include the first and the second powers of contraction parameters in the transformation of deformation parameter. The noncommutative analogs of (N-1)-dimensional constant curvature spaces are introduced. Part of these spaces for N=5 are interpreted as the noncommutative analogs of (1+3) space-time models. As a result the wide variety of the quantum deformations of realistic kinematics are suggested.Comment: 13 pages, no figure

    The R.I. Pimenov unified gravitation and electromagnetism field theory as semi-Riemannian geometry

    Full text link
    More then forty years ago R.I. Pimenov introduced a new geometry -- semi-Riemannian one -- as a set of geometrical objects consistent with a fibering pr:Mn→Mm. pr: M_n \to M_m. He suggested the heuristic principle according to which the physically different quantities (meter, second, coulomb etc.) are geometrically modelled as space coordinates that are not superposed by automorphisms. As there is only one type of coordinates in Riemannian geometry and only three types of coordinates in pseudo-Riemannian one, a multiple fibered semi-Riemannian geometry is the most appropriate one for the treatment of more then three different physical quantities as unified geometrical field theory. Semi-Euclidean geometry 3R54^{3}R_5^4 with 1-dimensional fiber x5x^5 and 4-dimensional Minkowski space-time as a base is naturally interpreted as classical electrodynamics. Semi-Riemannian geometry 3V54^{3}V_5^4 with the general relativity pseudo-Riemannian space-time 3V4,^{3}V^4, and 1-dimensional fiber x5,x^5, responsible for the electromagnetism, provides the unified field theory of gravitation and electromagnetism. Unlike Kaluza-Klein theories, where the 5-th coordinate appears in nondegenerate Riemannian or pseudo-Riemannian geometry, the theory based on semi-Riemannian geometry is free from defects of the former. In particular, scalar field does not arise. PACS: 04.50.Cd, 02.40.-k, 11.10.KkComment: 16 pages, 2 figures. Submited to Physics of Atomic Nucle

    On the relation of Voevodsky's algebraic cobordism to Quillen's K-theory

    Full text link
    Quillen's algebraic K-theory is reconstructed via Voevodsky's algebraic cobordism. More precisely, for a ground field k the algebraic cobordism P^1-spectrum MGL of Voevodsky is considered as a commutative P^1-ring spectrum. There is a unique ring morphism MGL^{2*,*}(k)--> Z which sends the class [X]_{MGL} of a smooth projective k-variety X to the Euler characteristic of the structure sheaf of X. Our main result states that there is a canonical grade preserving isomorphism of ring cohomology theories MGL^{*,*}(X,U) \tensor_{MGL^{2*,*}(k)} Z --> K^{TT}_{- *}(X,U) = K'_{- *}(X-U)} on the category of smooth k-varieties, where K^{TT}_* is Thomason-Trobaugh K-theory and K'_* is Quillen's K'-theory. In particular, the left hand side is a ring cohomology theory. Moreover both theories are oriented and the isomorphism above respects the orientations. The result is an algebraic version of a theorem due to Conner and Floyd. That theorem reconstructs complex K-theory via complex cobordism.Comment: LaTeX, 18 pages, uses XY-pi

    Electric-dipole active two-magnon excitation in {\textit{ab}} spiral spin phase of a ferroelectric magnet Gd0.7_{\textbf{0.7}}Tb0.3_{\textbf{0.3}}MnO3_{\textbf 3}

    Full text link
    A broad continuum-like spin excitation (1--10 meV) with a peak structure around 2.4 meV has been observed in the ferroelectric abab spiral spin phase of Gd0.7_{0.7}Tb0.3_{0.3}MnO3_3 by using terahertz (THz) time-domain spectroscopy. Based on a complete set of light-polarization measurements, we identify the spin excitation active for the light EE vector only along the a-axis, which grows in intensity with lowering temperature even from above the magnetic ordering temperature but disappears upon the transition to the AA-type antiferromagnetic phase. Such an electric-dipole active spin excitation as observed at THz frequencies can be ascribed to the two-magnon excitation in terms of the unique polarization selection rule in a variety of the magnetically ordered phases.Comment: 11 pages including 3 figure

    © 2016 Ruslan Ibragimov, Sergey Pimenov, Ilham Kiyamov, Ramil Mingazov, Laysan Kiyamova.The results of the study of the influence of two different super-plasticizers on the peculiarities of the process of hydration during mechanochemical activation (MCA) of a binder are given. The influence of SAS admixtures during the MCA of a binder on the kinetics of heat release and the alkalinity of the liquid phase of cement slurry is revealed. Technological properties of concrete mixture and physicomechanical properties of heavy-weight concrete, obtained by the MCA of a binder with the SAS admixtures, were studied. Dependencies of the influence of SAS on the processes and the nature of cement hydration were established, as well as on granulometric and phase composition of hydrated new formations. It was established that the application of SAS admixtures at the MCA of a binder makes it possible to substantially increase the efficiency of cement dispergation, which manifests itself in the decrease of grain sizes and the increase in specific surface area. The MCA of a binder with SAS admixtures makes it possible to obtain homogeneous cement suspension with the uniform distribution of water in the volume of cement, which positively affects physicomechanical properties and the quality of the obtained concrete. The application of SAS admixtures at the MCA of a binder results in the reduction of induction period of hydration by 2-5 hours, and also in the acceleration of crystallization period by 5-7 hours faster than in the reference compositions. MCA of cement suspension with SAS admixtures leads to the increase in the density of concrete mixture and a substantial increase in the strength limit of heavy-weight concrete at compression during all periods of hardening. With the MCA of a binder with SAS, an increase in the amount of crystalline phase by 10-12 % is observed in the first twenty-four hours of hardening, which confirms the conclusion about acceleration of cement hydration with the joint use of SAS and MCA. According to the results of a comprehensive study we received new data of the influence of super-plasticizing admixtures of different chemical bases on the peculiarities of the processes of hydration of a binder during MCA. The obtained data can be used for selection of superplasticizing admixtures in the production of the ferroconcrete products, obtained with the MCA of a binder, as well as in the technology of construction of buildings made of monolithic reinforced concrete

    Higgsless Electroweak Model and Contraction of Gauge Group

    Full text link
    A modified formulation of the Electroweak Model with 3-dimensional spherical geometry in the target space is suggested. The {\it free} Lagrangian in the spherical field space along with the standard gauge field Lagrangian form the full Higgsless Lagrangian of the model, whose second order terms reproduce the same experimentally verified fields with the same masses as the Standard Electroweak Model. The vector bosons masses are automatically generated, so there is no need in special mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking. The limiting case of the modified Higgsless Electroweak Model, which corresponds to the contracted gauge group SU(2;j)×U(1)SU(2;j)\times U(1) is discussed. Within framework of the limit model Z-boson, electromagnetic and electron fields are interpreted as an external ones with respect to W-bosons and neutrino fields. The W-bosons and neutrino fields do not effect on these external fields. The masses of all particles remain the same, but the field interactions in contracted model are more simple as compared with the standard Electroweak Model due to nullification of some terms.Comment: Talk at the International Workshop "`Supersymmetries and Quantum Symmetries"' (SQS-09), Dubna, Russia, July 29 -- August 3, 2009, 11

    Structural and magnetic dimers in the spin-gapped system CuTe2O5

    Full text link
    We investigated the magnetic properties of the system CuTe2O5 by susceptibility and electron spin resonance measurements. The anisotropy of the effective g-factors and the ESR linewidth indicates that the anticipated structural dimer does not correspond to the singlet-forming magnetic dimer. Moreover, the spin susceptibility of CuTe2O5 can only be described by taking into account interdimer interactions of the same order of magnitude than the intradimer coupling. Analyzing the exchange couplings in the system we identify the strongest magnetic coupling between two Cu ions to be mediated by super-super exchange interaction via a bridging Te ligand, while the superexchange coupling between the Cu ions of the structural dimer only results in the second strongest coupling

    Theory of magnetoelectric resonance in two-dimensional S=3/2S=3/2 antiferromagnet Ba2CoGe2O7{\rm Ba_2CoGe_2O_7} via spin-dependent metal-ligand hybridization mechanism

    Full text link
    We investigate magnetic excitations in an S=3/2S=3/2 Heisenberg model representing two-dimensional antiferromagnet Ba2CoGe2O7{\rm Ba_2CoGe_2O_7}. In terahertz absorption experiment of the compound, Goldstone mode as well as novel magnetic excitations, conventional magnetic resonance at 2 meV and both electric- and magnetic-active excitation at 4 meV, have been observed. By introducing a hard uniaxial anisotropy term Λ(Sz)2\Lambda (S^z)^2, three modes can be explained naturally. We also indicate that, via the spin-dependent metal-ligand hybridization mechanism, the 4 meV excitation is an electric-active mode through the coupling between spin and electric-dipole. Moreover, at 4 meV excitation, an interference between magnetic and electric responses emerges as a cross correlated effect. Such cross correlation effects explain the non-reciprocal linear directional dichroism observed in Ba2CoGe2O7{\rm Ba_2CoGe_2O_7}.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure

    Electric-field control of spin waves at room temperature in multiferroic BiFeO3

    Full text link
    To face the challenges lying beyond current CMOS-based technology, new paradigms for information processing are required. Magnonics proposes to use spin waves to carry and process information, in analogy with photonics that relies on light waves, with several advantageous features such as potential operation in the THz range and excellent coupling to spintronics. Several magnonic analog and digital logic devices have been proposed, and some demonstrated. Just as for spintronics, a key issue for magnonics is the large power required to control/write information (conventionally achieved through magnetic fields applied by strip lines, or by spin transfer from large spin-polarized currents). Here we show that in BiFeO3, a room-temperature magnetoelectric material, the spin wave frequency (>600 GHz) can be tuned electrically by over 30%, in a non-volatile way and with virtually no power dissipation. Theoretical calculations indicate that this effect originates from a linear magnetoelectric effect related to spin-orbit coupling induced by the applied electric field. We argue that these properties make BiFeO3 a promising medium for spin wave generation, conversion and control in future magnonics architectures.Comment: 3 figure
