We report the discovery of a new binary pulsar, PSR J1829+2456, found during a mid-latitude drift-scan survey with the Arecibo telescope. Our initial timing observations show the 41-ms pulsar to be in a 28-hr, slightly eccentric, binary orbit. The advance of periastron ˙ω = 0 .28 ± 0 .01 deg yr − 1 is derived from our timing observations spanning 200 days. Assuming that the advance of periastron is purely relativistic and a reasonable range of neutron star masses for PSR J1829+2456 we constrain the companion mass to be between 1.22 M ⊙ and 1.38 M ⊙, making it likely …

We report on a search for gravitational wave bursts using data from the first science run of the Laser Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory ~LIGO! detectors. Our search focuses on bursts with durations ranging from 4 to 100 ms, and with significant power in the LIGO sensitivity band of 150 to 3000 Hz. We bound the rate for such detected bursts at less than 1.6 events per day at a 90% confidence level. This result is interpreted in terms of the detection efficiency for ad hoc waveforms ~Gaussians and sine Gaussians! as a function of their root-sum-square strain hrss ; typical …
A High Precision Radial Velocity Survey Of K Giants, David S. Mitchell
A High Precision Radial Velocity Survey Of K Giants, David S. Mitchell
Physics
Precise radial velocity measurements of stars can provide a powerful tool for both examining the intrinsic atmospheric activity of the star, and testing for the existence of substellar orbital companions. This method has been used to detect the vast majority of known extrasolar planets, as well as probing the asteroseismological characteristics of active stars. This dissertation presents the results of a precise radial velocity survey of 177 bright K giant stars. Six of the stars have data that indicate the presence of planetary or brown dwarf orbital companions. Many others have evidence of nonradial pulsations, and twenty binary stars are …

We critique the hypothesisthat the first starswere very massive stars(VMSs; M > 140 M).We review the twomajor lines of evidencefor the existence ofVMSs: (1) that therelative metal abundances ofextremely metal-poor Galactic halostars show evidence ofVMS enrichment and (2)that the high electron-scatteringoptical depth (e) tothe cosmic microwave backgroundfound by the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe(WMAP) requires VMSs forreionization in a concordanceCDM cosmology.

Magneto-Thermal Behavior Of A Granular Fecl2–Fe Heterostructure, Sarbeswar Sahoo, Christian Binek, Wolfgang Kleemann
Christian Binek Publications
A granular system consisting of ferromagnetic single-domain Fe particles in an antiferromagnetic FeCl2 matrix was prepared by coevaporation in an ultra-high vacuum environment. The structural and magnetic properties were investigated by X-ray diffractometry and superconducting quantum interference device magnetometry, respectively. The heterostructure combines the properties of superparamagnetic Fe granules and the antiferromagnetism of the FeCl2 matrix. In addition, dipolar interaction-induced giant moments are observed below the Néel temperature of the FeCl2 matrix. The thermomagnetic properties of the giant moments are studied.

Nearly complete angular distributions of the two-body deuteron photodisintegration differential cross section have been measured using the CEBAF Large Acceptance Spectrometer detector and the tagged photon beam at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. The data cover photon energies between 0.5 and 3.0 GeV and center-of-mass proton scattering angles 10°–160°. The data show a persistent forward-backward angle asymmetry over the explored energy range, and are well described by the nonperturbative quark gluon string model.

We extract the Bjorken integral 𝚪1p-n in the range 0.17 < Q2 <1.10 GeV2 from inclusive scattering of polarized electrons by polarized protons, deuterons, and 3He, for the region in which the integral is dominated by nucleon resonances. These data bridge the domains of the hadronic and partonic descriptions of the nucleon. In combination with earlier measurements at higher Q2, we extract the nonsinglet twist-4 matrix element f2.

Precision measurements of the relative analyzing powers of five electron beam polarimeters, based on Compton, Moller, and Mott scattering, have been performed using the CEBAF accelerator at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility ( Jefferson Laboratory). A Wien filter in the 100 keV beam line of the injector was used to vary the electron spin orientation exiting the injector. High statistical precision measurements of the scattering asymmetry as a function of the spin orientation were made with each polarimeter. Since each polarimeter receives beam with the same magnitude of polarization, these asymmetry measurements permit a high statistical precision comparison of …

We present the measured reflectances (Beamline 6.3.2, ALS and LBNL) of naturally oxidized uranium and naturally oxidized nickel thin films from 100-460 eV (2.7 to 11.6 nm) at 5 and 15 degrees grazing incidence. These show that uranium as UO2, can fulfill its promise as the highest known single surface reflector for this portion of the soft x-ray region, being nearly twice as reflective as nickel in the 124-250 eV (5-10 nm) region. This is due to its large index of refraction coupled with low absorption. Nickel is commonly used in soft x-ray applications in astronomy and synchrotrons. (Its reflectance …

High-statistics cross sections and recoil polarizations for the reactions γ+p → K++ Λ and γ+p→K++ Σ0 have been measured at CLAS for center-of-mass energies between 1.6 and 2.3 GeV. In the K+Λ channel we confirm a resonance-like structure near W = 1.9 GeV at backward kaon angles. Our data show more complex s- and u- channel behavior than previously seen, since structure is also present at forward angles, but not at central angles. The position and width change with angle, indicating that more than one resonance is playing a role. Large positive Λ polarization at …

Superionicity In Na3Po4: A Molecular Dynamics Simulation, Wei-Guo Yin, Jianjun Liu, Chun-Gang Duan, Wai-Ning Mei, Robert W. Smith, John R. Hardy
Physics Faculty Publications
Fast ionic conduction in solid Na3PO4 is studied by use of molecular dynamics simulation based on the modified Lu-Hardy approach. We obtain reasonable agreement with experiment for the structural transition and diffusion of the sodium ions. All the sodium ions are found to contribute comparably to the high ionic conductivity. The results of the simulation are discussed in terms of the relative magnitude of the two proposed transport mechanisms: percolation and paddle-wheel. It appears to us that the percolation mechanism dominates the sodium diffusion.

Spin Uncoupling In Free Nb Clusters: Support For Nascent Superconductivity, Ramiro Moro, Shuangye Yin, Xiaoshan Xu, Walt A. De Heer
Xiaoshan Xu Papers
Molecular beam Stern-Gerlach deflection measurements on Nb clusters (NbN, N <100) show that at very low temperatures the odd-N clusters deflect due to a single unpaired spin that is uncoupled from the cluster. At higher temperatures the spin is coupled and no deflections are observed. Spin uncoupling occurs concurrently with the transition to the recently found ferroelectric state, which has superconductor characteristics [Science 300, 1265 (2003)]. Spin uncoupling (also seen in V, Ta, and Al clusters) is analogous to the reduction of spin-relaxation rates observed in bulk superconductors below Tc.
Numerical Simulation Of Soliton Pulse Propagation In Doped Optical Fibres By Finite-Difference Method, Adams Usman, Junaidah Osman, D. R. Tilley
Numerical Simulation Of Soliton Pulse Propagation In Doped Optical Fibres By Finite-Difference Method, Adams Usman, Junaidah Osman, D. R. Tilley
Turkish Journal of Physics
We report results of applications of explicit finite-difference schemes, viz. the combination of forward-difference and central-difference approximation schemes, to study a simulation of soliton pulse propagation in saturable optical fibres. The dynamic governing equation is the saturable nonlinear Schrödinger equation (SNLE). This equation thus far lacks analytical solution in the sense of the inverse scattering method, although an analytical solitary wave solution is available. We use the localized solution to generate data for simulations of fundamental and second order soliton pulse propagation. In addition, we check the numerical accuracy of the results by considering the physical significance of two conserved …

Modeling Relaxation Length And Half-Thickness Of Wood By Method Of Gamma Radiation, Louis E. Akpabio, Sunday E. Etuk, Samuel David Ekpe
Turkish Journal of Physics
Relaxation lengths and half-thickness values of different types of wood were determined using gamma radiation from ^{60}C0 source. Results show that oxystigma (Oxystima spp) has the highest relaxation length of 23.810cm, while mangrove (Rhizoohora spp) has the least relaxation length of 1.247 cm. Results also show that Oxystima (Oxystima spp) has the highest half thickness value of 16.500 cm and Mangrove (Rhizophora spp) has the least half-thickness value of 0.864 cm. Two mathematical models have been developed for the prediction or determination of density \rho, variation with relaxation length and half thickness value of wood. A good agreement (greater than …

Dielectric Properties And Conductivity Of Khco_3, Fathy Salman, S. Aboelhssan, Eslam Sheha, Mabrouk Elmansy
Turkish Journal of Physics
KHCO_{3} compound was characterized in three principle realms: for its dielectric properties as a function of temperature and frequency in the ranges 300--370 K and 50 Hz to 1 MHz, respectively; bulk conductivity as a function of temperature, via impedance technique; and relaxation time as function of temperature. Variations of the bulk conductivity and relaxation time with temperature have been found to yield two segments, with two different activation energies. The activation energy for the two segments due to bulk conductivity have been found as 1.96 eV and 1.85 eV, while the activation energy due to relaxation have been found …

Formation And Elastic Behavior Of Lead-Magnesium Chlorophosphate Glasses, Hj. Ab. Aziz Sidek, S. P. Chow, Z. A. Talib, S. A. Halim
Turkish Journal of Physics
A series of ternary lead-magnesium chlorophosphate glasses, (PbCl_{2})_{x}(MgO)_{1 - x}(P_{2}O_{5})_{0.4}, of various compositions with 0.3 \le x \le 0.45 have been successfully prepared and their elastic properties have been characterized at room temperature. Results from the studies show that both the longitudinal and shear wave velocities decrease with increase of PbCl_{2} composition. The elastic constants C_{11}, C_{44} and Young's modulus show a decreasing trend while the elastic constant C_{12}, bulk modulus and Poisson's ratio show an increasing trend as the fraction of PbCl_{2} increases. This behavior of the elastic properties is related to the change in the structure of glasses …

A low-latitude anticenter field (l = 189°, b = +21°) is investigated by using the full calibration tools of RGU photometry. The observed RGU data are reduced to the standard system and the separation of dwarfs and evolved stars is carried out by an empirical method. Stars are categorized into three metallicity classes, i.e. -0.25

Empirical Models For The Correlation Of Monthly Average Daily Global Solar Radiation With Hours Of Sunshine On A Horizontal Surface At Karachi, Pakistan, Firoz Ahmed, Intikhab Ulfat
Turkish Journal of Physics
A new set of constants for Angstrom-type correlation of first and second order, to estimate monthly average daily global solar radiation, has been obtained employing sunshine hours data recorded at Karachi, Pakistan (Lat. 24^° 54' N, Long. 67^° 08' E). Least square regression is performed to derive these constants. The correlation equations developed are employed to calculate the monthly average daily global solar radiation. These results are then compared with various other existing correlations and the measured data. Excellent agreement has been found between the estimated and the measured values.

Structure And Dielectric Behaviour Of Barium Cupro Molybdate Ceramic, N. G. Durge, M. S. Nadkarni, S. V. Salvi
Turkish Journal of Physics
The ceramic of new perovskite Ba (Cu_{1/2} Mo_{1/2}) O_3 has been synthesized at 1200 °C for 24 hours. The XRD analysis indicates an ordered hexagonal structure, which is attributed to large valency difference between octahedral cations. The IR spectrum reveals the presence of Cu-O-Mo ordered bond. The room temperature relaxation spectra imply a large conductivity term and multiple `Debye terms' at low frequencies. This is attributed to presence of the space charge. The variation of dielectric constant with temperature has been investigated from room temperature to 800 K. The diffusivity constant equal to 1 implies normal ferroelectric behaviour near room …

Effects Of Localization And Amplification On Intensity Distribution Of Light Transmitted Through Random Media, Alexey Yamilov, Hui Cao
Effects Of Localization And Amplification On Intensity Distribution Of Light Transmitted Through Random Media, Alexey Yamilov, Hui Cao
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
We numerically study the statistical distribution of intensity of light transmitted through quasi-one-dimensional random media by varying the dimensionless conductance g and the amount of absorption or gain. A markedly non-Rayleigh distribution is found to be well fitted by the analytical formula of Nieuwenhuizen et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 74, 2674 (1995)] with a single parameter g′ . We show that in the passive random system g′ is uniquely related to g , while in amplifying or absorbing random media g′ also depends on the gain or absorption coefficient.

Highest-Quality Modes In Disordered Photonic Crystals, Alexey Yamilov, Hui Cao
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
We studied the modes of the highest-quality factor Qm in disordered photonic crystals. by varying the strength of disorder, we identified five different scaling regimes of the ensemble averaged (Qm) with the system size. For sufficiently large systems, (Qm) reaches the maximum at some finite degree of disorder, where its value is comparable to the quality factor of an intentionally introduced single defect at the center of a photonic band gap. Near this optimal degree of disorder, we predict a superexponential increase of (Qm) with the system size, due to migration of the frequencies of the highest-quality modes toward the …

Silica aerogels were patterned with CdS using a photolithographic technique based on local heating with infrared (IR) light. The solvent of silica hydrogels was exchanged with an aqueous solution of the precursors CdNO3 and NH4 OH, all precooled to a temperature of 5°C. Half of the bathing solution was then replaced by a thiourea solution. After thiourea diffused into the hydrogels, the samples were exposed to a focused IR beam from a continuous wave, Nd-YAG laser. The precursors reacted in the spots heated by the IR beam to form CdS nanoparticles. We lithographed features with a diameter of …

We fabricated two-dimensional photonic crystal structures in zinc oxide films with focused-ion-beam etching. Lasing is realized in the near-ultraviolet frequency at room temperature under optical pumping. From the measurement of lasing frequency and spatial profile of the lasing modes, as well as the photonic band structure calculation, we conclude that lasing occurs in the strongly localized defect modes near the edges of photonic band gap. These defect modes originate from the structure disorder unintentionally introduced during the fabrication process. ©2004 American Institute of Physics

Giant Planar Hall Effect In Colossal Magnetoresistive La0.84sr0.16mno3 Thin Films, Y. Bason, L. Klein, J. -B. Yau, X. Hong, C. H. Ahn
Xia Hong Publications
The transverse resistivity in thin films of La0.84Sr0.16MnO3 (LSMO) exhibits sharp field-symmetric jumps below TC . We show that a likely source of this behavior is the giant planar Hall effect combined with biaxial magnetic anisotropy. The effect is comparable in magnitude to that observed recently in the magnetic semiconductor Ga(Mn)As. It can be potentially used in applications such as magnetic sensors and nonvolatile memory devices.
