Feedback Instability Analysis for Dipole Configuration with Ionospheric and Magnetospheric Cavities
Correlation Effects in a One-Dimensional Quarter-Filled Electron System with Repulsive Interactions
A one-dimensional electron system at quarter-filling has been examined by
applying the renormalization group method to a bosonized model with on-site (U)
and nearest-neighbor (V) repulsive interactions. By evaluating both normal
scattering and Umklapp scattering perturbatively, we obtain a phase diagram in
which a metallic state with a 2k_F spin density wave (k_F is the Fermi wave
number) moves into an insulating state with charge disproportionation of a 4k_F
charge density wave with an increase in both U and V. The effect of the
next-nearest-neighbor repulsion is also discussed.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures, to be published in J. Phys. Soc. Jpn. 69 (2000)

On the function of the Megakaryocyte (Motility, Separation of the Platelet and Phagocytosis), Observations Both in Idiopathic Thrombo-cytopenic Purpura and in Normal Adult
The idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura was described by
Werlhof as an independent disease first in 1738. Kaznelson
reported the excellent effect of splenectomy for its chronic type in 1915. For the genesis of its thrombocytopenia, there have been many theories to be concluded into the followings, 1) the development of an auto-immune mechanism resulting in platelet destruction, 2) increased platelet destruction in the spleen, 3)
the inhibition of platelet production from the marrow megakaryocytes by a humoral factor produced in the spleen, 4) both increased destruction and decreased production of the platelet. Among the above four theories, the third one is the most popular in the chronic type.</p
Computer simulations on sprite initiation for realistic lightning models with higher‐frequency surges
[1] Computer simulations on transient luminous emissions in the mesosphere and lower ionosphere have been performed for realistic lightning modelings with fast-varying current surges (M components) superimposed on the lightning continuing current (CC). The algorithm used here is an electromagnetic (EM) code, which enables us to estimate self-consistently the reduced electric field, electron density, conductivity, and luminosity as a function of space and time by solving the Maxwell equations. It is found that M components in the CC with small amplitudes, but with a fast-varying EM effect, can initiate or enhance the occurrence of sprites. Even for a return stroke (RS) without CC, subsequent high-frequency current variations (like M components) are found to lead to dramatic changes in the sprite occurrence. The physics underlying these changes is studied by means of, e.g., temporal and spatial variations of luminosity, electron density, and conductivity. As the conclusion, the RS is a fundamental agency for spites, but high-frequency variations as EM effects exhibit an additional essential influence on sprite occurrence. These computational results are used to offer some useful ideas concerning the unsolved problems of sprites and halos, including polarity asymmetry, long-delay characteristics, and morphological shapes of sprites

Effects of Next-Nearest-Neighbor Repulsion on One-Dimensional Quarter-Filled Electron Systems
We examine effects of the next-nearest-neighbor repulsion on electronic
states of a one-dimensional interacting electron system which consists of
quarter-filled band and interactions of on-site and nearest-neighbor repulsion.
We derive the effective Hamiltonian for the electrons around wave number \pm
\kf (\kf: Fermi wave number) and apply the renormalization group method to
the bosonized Hamiltonian. It is shown that the next-nearest-neighbor repulsion
makes 4\kf-charge ordering unstable and suppresses the spin fluctuation.
Further the excitation gaps and spin susceptibility are also evaluated.Comment: 19 pages, 8 figures, submitted to J. Phys. Soc. Jp
Role of hydrogen bonding in charge-ordered organic conductor -(BEDT-TTF)I probed by I nuclear quadrupole resonance
We present I nuclear quadrupole resonance spectra and nuclear
relaxation of -(BEDT-TTF)I that undergoes a charge-ordering
transition. Only one of the two I anion sites shows a significant
differentiation in the electric field gradients across the first-order
transition. The charge modulation only in the BEDT-TTF layers can not
reproduce; instead, an anion-donor interaction accompanied by hydrogen bonding
is necessary. The dominating source for the nuclear relaxation is the local
libration of the I anions, but an anomalous peak is detected just below the
transition, as observed by C NMR.Comment: 10 pages, 5 figures, accepted for publication in Phys. Rev.
