Electromagnetic Pion Form Factor and Neutral Pion Decay Width

The electromagnetic pion form factor, $F_\pi(q^2)$, is calculated for spacelike-$q^2$ in impulse approximation using a confining quark propagator, $S$, and a dressed quark-photon vertex, $\Gamma_\mu$, obtained from realistic, nonperturbative Dyson-Schwinger equation studies. Good agreement with the available data is obtained for $F_\pi(q^2)$ and other pion observables, including the decay $\pi^0 \rightarrow \gamma\,\gamma$. This calculation suggests that soft, nonperturbative contributions dominate $F_\pi(q^2)$ at presently accessible~$q^2$.Comment: 25 pages, LaTeX, elsart.sty, 5 figures, To appear in Nucl. Phys.

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

Chiral Anomaly and γ3π\gamma 3\pi

Measurement of the $\gamma 3\pi$ process has revealed a possible conflict with what should be a solid prediction generated by the chiral anomaly. We show that inclusion of appropirate energy-momentum dependence in the matrix element reduces the discrepancy.Comment: 8 page standard Latex fil

Semileptonic decays B→(π,ρ)eνB\to(\pi,\rho)e\nu in relativistic quark model

Quark model results for the $B\to \pi,\rho$ decays are analysed, making use of the dispersion formulation of the model: The form factors at $q^2>0$ are expressed as relativistic invariant double spectral representation over invariant masses of the initial and final mesons through their light--cone wave functions. The dependence of the results on the quark model parameters is studied. For various versions of the quark model the ranges $\Gamma(\bar B^0\to\pi^+e\bar\nu)=(7\pm2)\times10^{12}|V_{ub}|^2\; s^{-1}$, $\Gamma(\bar B^0\to\rho^+e\bar\nu)/\Gamma(\bar B^0\to\pi^+e\bar\nu)=1.45\pm0.1$, and $\Gamma_L/\Gamma_T=0.7\pm0.08$ are found. The effects of the constituent quark transition form factor are briefly discussed.Comment: latex, 8 pages, 2 figure

Radiative Tau Decays with One Pseudoscalar Meson

We have calculated the decay $\tau \rightarrow \nu \pi(K) \gamma$. We present the photon energy spectrum, the meson-photon invariant mass spectrum and the integrated rate as a function of a photon energy cut or an invariant mass cut. Both the internal bremsstrahlung and the structure dependent radiation have been taken into account. To this aim we have parametrized the form factors $F_V$ and $F_A$, which determine the structure dependent radiation. Observables especially suited for the measurement of the structure dependent form factors are found and implications on the width of the $a_1$ discussed.Comment: p.20, TTP93-1, LaTe

Spin-polarized electric currents in diluted magnetic semiconductor heterostructures induced by terahertz and microwave radiation

We report on the study of spin-polarized electric currents in diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) quantum wells subjected to an in-plane external magnetic field and illuminated by microwave or terahertz radiation. The effect is studied in (Cd,Mn)Te/(Cd,Mg)Te quantum wells (QWs) and (In,Ga)As/InAlAs:Mn QWs belonging to the well known II-VI and III-V DMS material systems, as well as, in heterovalent AlSb/InAs/(Zn,Mn)Te QWs which represent a promising combination of II-VI and III-V semiconductors. Experimental data and developed theory demonstrate that the photocurrent originates from a spin-dependent scattering of free carriers by static defects or phonons in the Drude absorption of radiation and subsequent relaxation of carriers. We show that in DMS structures the efficiency of the current generation is drastically enhanced compared to non-magnetic semiconductors. The enhancement is caused by the exchange interaction of carrier spins with localized spins of magnetic ions resulting, on the one hand, in the giant Zeeman spin-splitting, and, on the other hand, in the spin-dependent carrier scattering by localized Mn2+ ions polarized by an external magnetic field.Comment: 14 pages, 13 figure

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
