NN Interaction JISP16: Current Status and Prospect
We discuss realistic nonlocal NN interactions of a new type - J-matrix
Inverse Scattering Potential (JISP). In an ab exitu approach, these
interactions are fitted to not only two-nucleon data (NN scattering data and
deuteron properties) but also to the properties of light nuclei without
referring to three-nucleon forces. We discuss recent progress with the ab
initio No-core Shell Model (NCSM) approach and respective progress in
developing ab exitu JISP-type NN-interactions together with plans of their
forthcoming improvements.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figures, to be published in Proceedings of Few-body 19

Standing Alfvén waves with m ? 1 in an axisymmetric magnetosphere excited by a non-stationary source
International audienceAs a continuation of our earlier paper, we consider here the case of the excitation of standing Alfvén waves by a source of the type of sudden impulse. It is shown that, following excitation by such a source, a given magnetic shell will exhibit oscillations with a variable frequency which increases from the shell's poloidal to toroidal frequency. Simultaneously, the oscillations will also switch over from poloidally (radially) to toroidally (azimuthally) polarized. With a reasonably large attenuation, only the start of this process, the stage of poloidal oscillations, will be observed in the ionosphere
Symplectic Gravity Models in Four, Three and Two Dimensions
A class of the gravity models describing a coupled system of
Abelian vector fields and the symmetric matrix generalizations of
the dilaton and Kalb-Ramond fields is considered. It is shown that the
Pecci-Quinn axion matrix can be entered and the resulting equations of motion
possess the symmetry in four dimensions. The stationary case is
studied. It is established that the theory allows a -model
representation with a target space which is invariant under the
group of isometry transformations. The chiral matrix of the coset is constructed. A K\"ahler formalism based on the use of the Ernst
complex symmetric matrix is developed. The stationary
axisymmetric case is considered. The Belinsky-Zakharov chiral matrix depending
on the original field variables is obtained. The Kramer-Neugebauer
transformation, which algebraically maps the original variables into the target
space ones, is presented.Comment: 21 pages, RevTex, no figurie
Standing Alfvén waves with m ? 1 in an axisymmetric magnetosphere excited by a stochastic source
International audienceIn the framework of an axisymmetric magnetospheric model, we have constructed a theory for broad-band standing Alfvén waves with large azimuthal wave number m » 1 excited by a stochastic source. External currents in the ionosphere are taken as the oscillation source. The source with statistical properties of "white noise" is considered at length. It is shown that such a source drives oscillations which also have the "white noise" properties. The spectrum of such oscillations for each harmonic of standing Alfvén waves has two maxima: near the poloidal and toroidal eigenfrequencies of the magnetic shell of the observation. In the case of a small attenuation in the ionosphere the maximum near the toroidal frequency is dominated, and the oscillations are nearly toroidally polarized. With a large attenuation, a maximum is dominant near the poloidal frequency, and the oscillations are nearly poloidally polarized
String theory extensions of Einstein-Maxwell fields: the static case
We present a new approach for generation of solutions in the four-dimensional
heterotic string theory with one vector field and in the five-dimensional
bosonic string theory starting from the static Einstein-Maxwell fields. Our
approach allows one to construct the solution classes invariant with respect to
the total subgroup of the three-dimensional charging symmetries of these string
theories. The new generation procedure leads to the extremal
Israel-Wilson-Perjes subclass of string theory solutions in a special case and
provides its natural continuous extension to the realm of non-extremal
solutions. We explicitly calculate all string theory solutions related to
three-dimensional gravity coupled to an effective dilaton field which arises
after an appropriate charging symmetry invariant reduction of the static
Einstein-Maxwell system.Comment: 19 pages in late
Population of isomers in decay of the giant dipole resonance
The value of an isomeric ratio (IR) in N=81 isotones (Ba, Ce,
Nd and Sm) is studied by means of the ( reaction.
This quantity measures a probability to populate the isomeric state in respect
to the ground state population. In ( reactions, the giant dipole
resonance (GDR) is excited and after its decay by a neutron emission, the
nucleus has an excitation energy of a few MeV. The forthcoming decay
by direct or cascade transitions deexcites the nucleus into an isomeric or
ground state. It has been observed experimentally that the IR for Ba
and Ce equals about 0.13 while in two heavier isotones it is even less
than half the size. To explain this effect, the structure of the excited states
in the energy region up to 6.5 MeV has been calculated within the Quasiparticle
Phonon Model. Many states are found connected to the ground and isomeric states
by , and transitions. The single-particle component of the wave
function is responsible for the large values of the transitions. The calculated
value of the isomeric ratio is in very good agreement with the experimental
data for all isotones. A slightly different value of maximum energy with which
the nuclei rest after neutron decay of the GDR is responsible for the reported
effect of the A-dependence of the IR.Comment: 16 pages, 4 Fig
Building blocks of a black hole
What is the nature of the energy spectrum of a black hole ? The algebraic
approach to black hole quantization requires the horizon area eigenvalues to be
equally spaced. As stressed long ago by by Mukhanov, such eigenvalues must be
exponentially degenerate with respect to the area quantum number if one is to
understand black hole entropy as reflecting degeneracy of the observable
states. Here we construct the black hole states by means of a pair of "creation
operators" subject to a particular simple algebra, a slight generalization of
that for the harmonic oscillator. We then prove rigorously that the n-th area
eigenvalue is exactly 2 raised to the n-fold degenerate. Thus black hole
entropy qua logarithm of the number of states for fixed horizon area comes out
proportional to that area.Comment: PhysRevTeX, 14 page
A Quantum Mechanical Model of the Reissner-Nordstrom Black Hole
We consider a Hamiltonian quantum theory of spherically symmetric,
asymptotically flat electrovacuum spacetimes. The physical phase space of such
spacetimes is spanned by the mass and the charge parameters and of the
Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m black hole, together with the corresponding canonical
momenta. In this four-dimensional phase space, we perform a canonical
transformation such that the resulting configuration variables describe the
dynamical properties of Reissner-Nordstr\"{o}m black holes in a natural manner.
The classical Hamiltonian written in terms of these variables and their
conjugate momenta is replaced by the corresponding self-adjoint Hamiltonian
operator, and an eigenvalue equation for the ADM mass of the hole, from the
point of view of a distant observer at rest, is obtained. Our eigenvalue
equation implies that the ADM mass and the electric charge spectra of the hole
are discrete, and the mass spectrum is bounded below. Moreover, the spectrum of
the quantity is strictly positive when an appropriate self-adjoint
extension is chosen. The WKB analysis yields the result that the large
eigenvalues of the quantity are of the form , where
is an integer. It turns out that this result is closely related to
Bekenstein's proposal on the discrete horizon area spectrum of black holes.Comment: 37 pages, Plain TeX, no figure
