    Get PDF
    The present invention concerns a new organometallic polymer material containing in part a vanadium-siloxane linkage (V-0-Si), which has excellent resistance to heat and oxidation and a high residue ratio after high temperature treatment in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, for example, nitrogen, argon, helium, ammonia, or hydrogen

    Analytic Calculation of Neutrino Mass Eigenvalues

    Full text link
    Implicaion of the neutrino oscillation search for the neutrino mass square difference and mixing are discussed. We have considered the effective majorana mass m_{ee}, related for \beta\beta_{0\nu}decay. We find limits for neutrino mass eigen value m_{i} in the different neutrino mass spectrum,which explain the different neutrino data.Comment: 10 page

    On Distinguishing Non-Standard Interactions from Radiative Corrections in Neutrino-Electron Scattering

    Full text link
    We present a contribution of higher order to neutrino-electron scattering that is a charged-current counterpart of both the anomalous axial-vector triangle and possible non-standard interaction contributions. It arises in the standard model with massive neutrinos, and renormalizes the nondiagonal axial-vector form-factor at low energies. We show that, due to the small size of radiative corrections, the neutrino-electron scattering still provides a discovery potential for some of the non-standard neutrino interactions proposed in the literature.Comment: 9 pages, 3 figures, change in title and context of the consideration, results of radiative corrections unchange

    Neutrino Masses and Mixings in a Minimal SO(10) Model

    Full text link
    We consider a minimal formulation of SO(10) Grand Unified Theory wherein all the fermion masses arise from Yukawa couplings involving one 126 and one 10 of Higgs multiplets. It has recently been recognized that such theories can explain, via the type-II seesaw mechanism, the large \nu_\mu - \nu_\tau mixing as a consequence of b-tau unification at the GUT scale. In this picture, however, the CKM phase \delta lies preferentially in the second quadrant, in contradiction with experimental measurements. We revisit this minimal model and show that the conventional type-I seesaw mechanism generates phenomenologically viable neutrino masses and mixings, while being consistent with CKM CP violation. We also present improved fits in the type-II seesaw scenario and suggest fully consistent fits in a mixed scenario.Comment: 27 pages, 13 eps figures, revtex4; references added, some minor correction

    Biquadratic antisymmetric exchange and the magnetic phase diagram of magnetoelectric CuFeO2_2

    Full text link
    Biquadratic {\it antisymmetric} exchange terms of the form [Cijeijα(si×sj)z]2 - [C_{ij} e^{\alpha}_{ij}({\bf s}_i\times{\bf s}_j)_z]^2, where eij{\bf e}_{ij} is the unit vector connecting sites ii and jj and α=x,y\alpha = x,y, due partially to magnetoelectric coupling effects, are shown to be responsible for the spin-flop helical phase in CuFeO2_2 at low magnetic field and temperature. Usual biquadratic {\it symmetric} exchange, likely due to magnetoelastic coupling, is found to support the stability of axial magnetic states at higher fields in this nearly-Heisenberg like stacked triangular antiferromagnet. A model Hamiltonian which also includes substantial interplane and higher-neighbor intraplane exchange interactions, reproduces the unique series of observed commensurate and incommensurate periodicity phases with increasing applied magnetic field in this highly frustrated system. The magnetic field-temperature phase diagram is discussed in terms of a Landau-type free energy.Comment: 7 pages, 9 figure

    Weak and Electromagnetic Nuclear Decay Signatures for Neutrino Reactions in SuperKamiokande

    Full text link
    We suggest the study of events in the SuperKamiokande neutrino data due to charged- and neutral-current neutrino reactions followed by weak and/or electromagnetic decays of struck nuclei and fragments thereof. This study could improve the prospects of obtaining evidence for τ\tau production from νμντ\nu_\mu \to \nu_\tau oscillations and could augment the data sample used to disfavor νμνsterile\nu_\mu \to \nu_{sterile} oscillations.Comment: 7 pages, latex, to appear in Phys.
