On the momentum-dependence of -nuclear potentials
The momentum dependent -nucleus optical potentials are obtained based
on the relativistic mean-field theory. By considering the quarks coordinates of
meson, we introduced a momentum-dependent "form factor" to modify the
coupling vertexes. The parameters in the form factors are determined by fitting
the experimental -nucleus scattering data. It is found that the real
part of the optical potentials decrease with increasing momenta, however
the imaginary potentials increase at first with increasing momenta up to
MeV and then decrease. By comparing the calculated mean
free paths with those from / scattering data, we suggested that the
real potential depth is MeV, and the imaginary potential parameter
is MeV.Comment: 9 pages, 4 figure
Public-private partnerships in China's urban water sector
During the past decades, the traditional state monopoly in urban water management has been debated heavily, resulting in different forms and degrees of private sector involvement across the globe. Since the 1990s, China has also started experiments with new modes of urban water service management and governance in which the private sector is involved. It is premature to conclude whether the various forms of private sector involvement will successfully overcome the major problems (capital shortage, inefficient operation, and service quality) in China¿s water sector. But at the same time, private sector involvement in water provisioning and waste water treatments seems to have become mainstream in transitional China
Ordered Self-Assembling of Tetrahedral Oxide Nanocrystals
©1997 The American Physical Society. The electronic version of this article is the complete one and can be found online at: http://link.aps.org/doi/10.1103/PhysRevLett.79.2570DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.79.2570Self-assembling of size, shape, and phase controlled nanocrystals into superlattices with translational and even orientational ordering is a new approach for engineering nanocrystal materials and devices. High purity tetrahedral nanocrystals of CoO, with edge lengths of 4.4±0.2 nm, were synthesized and separated from Co nanocrystals, using a novel magnetic field phase-selection technique. Self-assembling of the faceted CoO nanocrystals forms ordered superlattices, the structures of which are determined
Quantum Correction in Exact Quantization Rules
An exact quantization rule for the Schr\"{o}dinger equation is presented. In
the exact quantization rule, in addition to , there is an integral term,
called the quantum correction. For the exactly solvable systems we find that
the quantum correction is an invariant, independent of the number of nodes in
the wave function. In those systems, the energy levels of all the bound states
can be easily calculated from the exact quantization rule and the solution for
the ground state, which can be obtained by solving the Riccati equation. With
this new method, we re-calculate the energy levels for the one-dimensional
systems with a finite square well, with the Morse potential, with the symmetric
and asymmetric Rosen-Morse potentials, and with the first and the second
P\"{o}schl-Teller potentials, for the harmonic oscillators both in one
dimension and in three dimensions, and for the hydrogen atom.Comment: 10 pages, no figure, Revte
