positronium and . In this paper energy levels and
decay widths of different decay channels of are given. Cross
section of production of this atomic system in annihilation taking
into account radiative corrections is calculated. According to our estimates
886 atoms may be produced at BEPCII and 29
atoms are produced at VEPP-4M under the present experimental
conditions.Comment: 5 pages, submitted to Int. Jour. Mod. Phys.
Multigraded Castelnuovo-Mumford Regularity
We develop a multigraded variant of Castelnuovo-Mumford regularity. Motivated
by toric geometry, we work with modules over a polynomial ring graded by a
finitely generated abelian group. As in the standard graded case, our
definition of multigraded regularity involves the vanishing of graded
components of local cohomology. We establish the key properties of regularity:
its connection with the minimal generators of a module and its behavior in
exact sequences. For an ideal sheaf on a simplicial toric variety X, we prove
that its multigraded regularity bounds the equations that cut out the
associated subvariety. We also provide a criterion for testing if an ample line
bundle on X gives a projectively normal embedding.Comment: 30 pages, 5 figure
Electromagnetic showers in a strong magnetic field
We present the results concerning the main shower characteristics in a strong
magnetic field obtained through shower simulation. The processes of magnetic
bremsstrahlung and pair production were taken into account for values of the
parameter . We compare our simulation results with a recently
developed cascade theory in a strong magnetic field.Comment: 11 pages, 9 eps figures, LaTex2e, Iopart.cls, Iopart12.clo,

Quantized spin wave modes in magnetic tunnel junction nanopillars
We present an experimental and theoretical study of the magnetic field
dependence of the mode frequency of thermally excited spin waves in rectangular
shaped nanopillars of lateral sizes 60x100, 75x150, and 105x190 nm2, patterned
from MgO-based magnetic tunnel junctions. The spin wave frequencies were
measured using spectrally resolved electrical noise measurements. In all
spectra, several independent quantized spin wave modes have been observed and
could be identified as eigenexcitations of the free layer and of the synthetic
antiferromagnet of the junction. Using a theoretical approach based on the
diagonalization of the dynamical matrix of a system of three coupled, spatially
confined magnetic layers, we have modeled the spectra for the smallest pillar
and have extracted its material parameters. The magnetization and exchange
stiffness constant of the CoFeB free layer are thereby found to be
substantially reduced compared to the corresponding thin film values. Moreover,
we could infer that the pinning of the magnetization at the lateral boundaries
must be weak. Finally, the interlayer dipolar coupling between the free layer
and the synthetic antiferromagnet causes mode anticrossings with gap openings
up to 2 GHz. At low fields and in the larger pillars, there is clear evidence
for strong non-uniformities of the layer magnetizations. In particular, at zero
field the lowest mode is not the fundamental mode, but a mode most likely
localized near the layer edges.Comment: 16 pages, 4 figures, (re)submitted to PR
Coherent strong-field control of multiple states by a single chirped femtosecond laser pulse
We present a joint experimental and theoretical study on strong-field
photo-ionization of sodium atoms using chirped femtosecond laser pulses. By
tuning the chirp parameter, selectivity among the population in the highly
excited states 5p, 6p, 7p and 5f, 6f is achieved. Different excitation pathways
enabling control are identified by simultaneous ionization and measurement of
photoelectron angular distributions employing the velocity map imaging
technique. Free electron wave packets at an energy of around 1 eV are observed.
These photoelectrons originate from two channels. The predominant 2+1+1
Resonance Enhanced Multi-Photon Ionization (REMPI) proceeds via the strongly
driven two-photon transition , and subsequent
ionization from the states 5p, 6p and 7p whereas the second pathway involves
3+1 REMPI via the states 5f and 6f. In addition, electron wave packets from
two-photon ionization of the non-resonant transiently populated state 3p are
observed close to the ionization threshold. A mainly qualitative five-state
model for the predominant excitation channel is studied theoretically to
provide insights into the physical mechanisms at play. Our analysis shows that
by tuning the chirp parameter the dynamics is effectively controlled by dynamic
Stark-shifts and level crossings. In particular, we show that under the
experimental conditions the passage through an uncommon three-state "bow-tie"
level crossing allows the preparation of coherent superposition states
