Proton Elastic Scattering and Neutron Distribution of Unstable Nuclei

We study theoretically how we can determine the neutron density distributions of unstable nuclei from proton elastic scattering. We apply the relativistic impulse model to study the sensitivities of the observables to the density distributionswhich are expressed in Woods-Saxon form. We find that the both radius and diffuseness of densities can be determined from restricted elastic scattering data in principle. We think this result is helpful to design future experiments.Comment: 22 pages, 9 ps figures, Late

Hysteresis, Avalanches, and Disorder Induced Critical Scaling: A Renormalization Group Approach

We study the zero temperature random field Ising model as a model for noise and avalanches in hysteretic systems. Tuning the amount of disorder in the system, we find an ordinary critical point with avalanches on all length scales. Using a mapping to the pure Ising model, we Borel sum the $6-\epsilon$ expansion to $O(\epsilon^5)$ for the correlation length exponent. We sketch a new method for directly calculating avalanche exponents, which we perform to $O(\epsilon)$. Numerical exponents in 3, 4, and 5 dimensions are in good agreement with the analytical predictions.Comment: 134 pages in REVTEX, plus 21 figures.
