Magnetooptical Study of Zeeman Effect in Mn modulation-doped InAs/InGaAs/InAlAs Quantum Well Structures

We report on a magneto-photoluminescence (PL) study of Mn modulation-doped InAs/InGaAs/InAlAs quantum wells. Two PL lines corresponding to the radiative recombination of photoelectrons with free and bound-on-Mn holes have been observed. In the presence of a magnetic field applied in the Faraday geometry both lines split into two circularly polarized components. While temperature and magnetic field dependences of the splitting are well described by the Brillouin function, providing an evidence for exchange interaction with spin polarized manganese ions, the value of the splitting exceeds the expected value of the giant Zeeman splitting by two orders of magnitude for a given Mn density. Possible reasons of this striking observation are discussed

The behavior of radioactive metals (Am, Eu, Sr) during the processing of radioactive graphite in salt melts

The behavior of Am, Eu, Sr radionuclides was investigated by thermodynamic modeling method at heating of radioactive graphite in NaCl - KCl - Na2CO3 - K2CO3 molten salt with additives of nickel oxide NiO. The integrated thermodynamic analysis was carried out by means of TERRA software in temperature range 373-3273 K to determine possible composition of condensed and gaseous phases. It was established that americium is in gaseous state in temperature range 2773-3273 K. Europium is in the forms of gaseous EuO and Eu in temperature range 2373-3273 K. Strontium is in the forms of gaseous SrCl2, SrCl, Sr, SrO in temperature range 2373-3273 K. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd

Exchange current contributions in null-plane quantum models of elastic electron deuteron scattering

We investigate exchange current contributions to elastic electron-deuteron scattering using exactly Poincar\'e invariant quantum mechanics with a null-plane kinematic symmetry. Our model exchange current is motivated by one-pion-exchange physics. Exact current conservation and current covariance are satisfied by using this current to compute a linearly independent set of current matrix elements. The remaining current matrix elements are generated from the independent matrix elements using the covariance and current conservation constraints. The presence of the exchange current increases the sensitivity to the choice of independent current matrix elements. Two choices of independent matrix elements that have distinct motivations lead to a good description of all of the elastic scattering observables for momentum transfers below 8 (GeV)$^2$.Comment: 49 Pages, 24 figure

Rotational covariance and light-front current matrix elements

Light-front current matrix elements for elastic scattering from hadrons with spin~1 or greater must satisfy a nontrivial constraint associated with the requirement of rotational covariance for the current operator. Using a model $\rho$ meson as a prototype for hadronic quark models, this constraint and its implications are studied at both low and high momentum transfers. In the kinematic region appropriate for asymptotic QCD, helicity rules, together with the rotational covariance condition, yield an additional relation between the light-front current matrix elements.Comment: 16 pages, [no number

Deep inelastic scattering and final state interaction in an exactly solvable relativistic model

In the theory of deep inelastic scattering (DIS) the final state interaction (FSI) between the struck quark and the remnants of the target is usually assumed to be negligible in the Bjorken limit. This assumption, still awaiting a full validation within nonperturbative QCD, is investigated in a model composed by two relativistic particles, interacting via a relativistic harmonic oscillator potential, within light-cone hamiltonian dynamics. An electromagnetic current operator whose matrix elements behave properly under Poincar\'e transformations is adopted. It is shown that: i) the parton model is recovered, once the standard parton model assumptions are adopted; and ii) when relativistic, interacting eigenfunctions are exactly taken into account for both the initial and final states, the values of the structure functions, averaged over small, but finite intervals of the Bjorken variable $x$, coincide with the results of the parton model in the Bjorken limit.Comment: 26 pages, to appear in Phys.
