Exponents of 2-multiarrangements and multiplicity lattices
We introduce a concept of multiplicity lattices of 2-multiarrangements,
determine the combinatorics and geometry of that lattice, and give a criterion
and method to construct a basis for derivation modules effectively.Comment: 14 page
Drift instability in the motion of a fluid droplet with a chemically reactive surface driven by Marangoni flow
We theoretically derive the amplitude equations for a self-propelled droplet
driven by Marangoni flow. As advective flow driven by surface tension gradient
is enhanced, the stationary state becomes unstable and the droplet starts to
move. The velocity of the droplet is determined from a cubic nonlinear term in
the amplitude equations. The obtained critical point and the characteristic
velocity are well supported by numerical simulations.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Twinning Deformation in Magnesium Compressed along the C-Axis(Physics)
Deformation twinnings in magnesium activated on the c-axis compression were investigated by light and electron transmission microscopies. Well-known twin forms of {1013} and {3034} habit planes were confirmed again, but {1013} twins were frequently observed to occur in groups along {3034} or grow from {1013} habit to {3034} habit. Transmission electron microscopic observations revealed that the well-developed {3034} habit twin has the same orientation relationship with the parent crystal as the {1013} twin. From these observations, it is concluded that the well-developed {3034} habit twins are the {1013} twins developed along {3034} planes. A possible mechanism of the habit plane change is described and the relation between the twin and the compression band is discussed
{1122} <1123> Slip System in Magnesium
The slip mode operative in the c-axis compression of magnesium was examined using precisely-oriented single crystals. From recorded stress-strain curves and observations with light and transmission electron microscopes, it was found that (1) the {1122} slip system operates at all temperatures investigated (from room temperature to 500℃), (2) the work hardening rate of this slip system is very high especially below 200℃, (3) the Burgers vector of the dislocation for the slip system is 1/3 , and (4) the dislocation has a strong preference to lie along a basal plane, which means that the edge dislocation is much less mobile than the screw dislocation. The ductility of polycrystalline magnesium is discussed from above observations
General pairing interactions and pair truncation approximations for fermions in a single-j shell
We investigate Hamiltonians with attractive interactions between pairs of
fermions coupled to angular momentum J. We show that pairs with spin J are
reasonable building blocks for the low-lying states. For systems with only a J
= Jmax pairing interaction, eigenvalues are found to be approximately integers
for a large array of states, in particular for those with total angular momenta
I le 2j. For I=0 eigenstates of four fermions in a single-j shell we show that
there is only one non-zero eigenvalue. We address these observations using the
nucleon pair approximation of the shell model and relate our results with a
number of currently interesting problems.Comment: a latex text file and 2 figures, to be publishe
Chamber basis of the Orlik-Solomon algebra and Aomoto complex
We introduce a basis of the Orlik-Solomon algebra labeled by chambers, so
called chamber basis. We consider structure constants of the Orlik-Solomon
algebra with respect to the chamber basis and prove that these structure
constants recover D. Cohen's minimal complex from the Aomoto complex.Comment: 16 page
Liquid phase immunoassay utilizing magnetic marker and high Tc superconducting quantum interference device
We have developed a liquid phase immunoassay system utilizing a magnetic marker and a superconducting quantum interference device (SQUID). In this system, the magnetic marker was used to detect the biological material called antigen. The magnetic marker was designed so as to generate a remanence, and the remanence field of the markers that bound to the antigens was measured with the SQUID. The measurement was performed in a solution that contained both the bound and free (or unbound) markers, i.e., without using the so-called bound/free (BF) separation process. The Brownian rotation of the free markers in the solution was used to distinguish the bound markers from the free ones. Using the system, we conducted the detection of biological material called IgE without BF separation. At present, we could detect the IgE down to 7 pg (or 39 amol
