Calculation Of The Electron Self-Energy For Low Nuclear Charge, Ulrich D. Jentschura, Peter J. Mohr, Gerhard Soff
Calculation Of The Electron Self-Energy For Low Nuclear Charge, Ulrich D. Jentschura, Peter J. Mohr, Gerhard Soff
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
We present a nonperturbative numerical evaluation of the one-photon electron self-energy for hydrogenlike ions with low nuclear charge numbers Z = 1 to 5. Our calculation for the 1S state has a numerical uncertainty of 0.8 Hz for hydrogen and 13 Hz for singly ionized helium. Resummation and convergence acceleration techniques that reduce the computer time by about 3 orders of magnitude were employed in the calculation. The numerical results are compared to results based on known terms in the expansion of the self-energy in powers of Zα.

The Non-Local Universe: The New Physics And Matters Of The Mind, Robert Nadeau, Menas Kafatos
Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Books and Book Chapters
Classical physics states that physical reality is local, or that a measurement at one point in space cannot cannot influence what occurs at another beyond a fairly short distance. Until recently this seemed like an immutable truth in nature. However, in 1997 experiments were conducted in which light particles (photons) originated under certain conditions and traveled in opposite directions to detectors located about seven miles apart. The amazing results indicated that the photons "interacted" or "communicated" with one another instantly or "in no time," leading to the revelation that physical reality is non-local--a discovery that Robert Nadeau and Menas Kafatos …
The He-Lih Potential Energy Surface Revisited. I. An Interpolated Rigid Rotor Surface, Robert Hinde
The He-Lih Potential Energy Surface Revisited. I. An Interpolated Rigid Rotor Surface, Robert Hinde
Chemistry Publications and Other Works
We reconsider the potential energy surface of the He–LiH system recently examined by Gianturco and co-workers [F. A. Gianturco et al., Chem. Phys. 215, 227 (1997)]. We compute the He–LiH interaction energy at the CCSD(T) level using large correlation consistent atomic basis sets supplemented with bond functions. To capture the severe anisotropy of the He–LiH potential, we interpolate our ab initio points in the angular direction with cubic splines, then expand the splines in terms of Legendre polynomials. The resulting smooth potential surface differs substantially from that of Gianturco et al.; in particular, our attractive He–LiH well is more …

We investigate the stability of the coupled soliton solutions of a two-component Z(2) vector fieldmodel, in contraposition to similar solutions of a Z(2)×Z(2)model recently introduced. We demonstrate that the coupled soliton solutions of the Z(2) model are classically unstable.

Black Holes And The Sym Phase Diagram, Miao Li, Emil Martinec, Vatche Sahakian
All HMC Faculty Publications and Research
Making combined use of the matrix and Maldacena conjectures, the relation between various thermodynamic transitions in super Yang-Mills (SYM) theory and supergravity is clarified. The thermodynamic phase diagram of an object in DLCQ M theory in four and five non-compact space dimensions is constructed; matrix strings, matrix black holes, and black p-branes are among the various phases. Critical manifolds are characterized by the principles of correspondence and longitudinal localization, and a triple point is identified. The microscopic dynamics of the matrix string near two of the transitions is studied; we identify a signature of black hole formation from SYM physics.

Using optimal matched filtering, we search 25 hours of data from the LIGO 40-m prototype laser interferometric gravitational-wave detector for gravitational-wave chirps emitted by coalescing binary systems within our Galaxy. This is the first test of this filtering technique on real interferometric data. An upper limit on the rate R of neutron star binary inspirals in our Galaxy is obtained: with 90% confidence, R<0.5h−1. Similar experiments with LIGO interferometers will provide constraints on the population of tight binary neutron star systems in the Universe.

Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
If γ-ray bursts (GRBs) are accompanied by gravitational wave bursts (GWBs) the correlated output of two gravitational wave detectors evaluated in the moments just prior to a GRB will differ from that evaluated at other times. We can test for this difference without prior knowledge of either the GWB wave form or the detector noise spectrum. With a model for the GRB source population and GWB spectrum we can put a limit on the in-band rms GWB signal amplitude. Laser-Interferometer Gravitational Wave Observatory I detector observations coincident with 1000 GRB observations could lead us to exclude with 95% confidence associated …

Polymer Depletion Effects Near Mesoscopic Particles, Andreas Hanke, E. Eisenriegler, S. Dietrich
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
The behavior of mesoscopic particles dissolved in a dilute solution of long, flexible, and nonadsorbing polymer chains is studied by field-theoretic methods. For spherical and cylindrical particles the solvation free energy for immersing a single particle in the solution is calculated explicitly. Important features are qualitatively different for self-avoiding polymer chains as compared with ideal chains. The results corroborate the validity of the Helfrich-type curvature expansion for general particle shapes and allow for quantitative experimental tests. For the effective interactions between a small sphere and a wall, between a thin rod and a wall, and between two small spheres, quantitative …
Critical Adsorption On Curved Objects, Andreas Hanke, S. Dietrich
Critical Adsorption On Curved Objects, Andreas Hanke, S. Dietrich
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
A systematic field-theoretical description of critical adsorption on curved objects such as spherical or rodlike colloidal particles immersed in a fluid near criticality is presented. The temperature dependence of the corresponding order parameter profiles and of the excess adsorption are calculated explicitly. Critical adsorption on elongated rods is substantially more pronounced than on spherical particles. It turns out that, within the context of critical phenomena in confined geometries, critical adsorption on a microscopically thin ‘‘needle’’ represents a distinct universality class of its own. Under favorable conditions the results are relevant for the flocculation of colloidal particles.

Rapid Single- And Multiple-Scattering Exafs Debye-Waller Factor Calculations On Active Sites Of Metalloproteins, N. Dimakis, M-Ali Al-Akhras, Grant Bunker
Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
This paper describes recent results using our approach to calculating self-consistently single (SS) and multiple-scattering (MS) Debye- Waller factors (DWF) on active sites of metalloproteins. The calculation of MS DWF, together with the Feff7 program allows us to simulate ab-initio EXAFS spectra for a given temperature systems with no adjustable parameters. In our latest report (Dimakis N., and Bunker G., 1998) we calculate, using density functional and semiempirical approaches, the SS and MS DWF for small molecules and compared them to Raman, infrared and EXAFS spectra. In this report calculation of DWFs is done for tetrahedral Zn imidazole, a complex …

Symmetry breaking surface fields give rise to nontrivial and long-ranged order parameter profiles for critical systems such as fluids, alloys, or magnets confined to wedges. We discuss the properties of the corresponding universal scaling functions of the order parameter profile and the two-point correlation function, and determine the critical exponents η∥ and η⊥ for the so-called normal transition.

An efficient method for calculating NMR lineshapes from anisotropic second rank tensor interactions is presented. The algorithm produces lineshapes from asymmetric tensors by summing those from symmetric tensors. This approach significantly reduces the calculation time, greatly facilitating iterative nonlinear least squares fitting of experimental spectra. This algorithm has been modified to produce partially relaxed lineshapes and spectra of partially ordered samples.;Calculations for rapidly spinning samples show that spin-lattice relaxation time ( T1Z ) anisotropy varies with the angle between the spinning axis and the external field. When the rate of molecular motion is in the extreme narrowing limit, measurement of …

Decay Search For The Supersymmetric R(0) (Gluon Gluino) Hadron Via The Channel R(0) Going To Positive Pion Negative Pion Photino, Kevin Michael Hern
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
There has been recent theoretical interest in supersymmetry breaking scenarios in which the gauginos are light compared to the squarks. One prediction of these light gluino models is the existence of the R 0 hadron (gg?£). Brookhaven National Laboratory AGS Experiment 935 (E935) searched for light gluinos through the appearance of pi+pi- pairs with invariant mass Mpipi > 545 MeV/c2 in a high flux neutral beam. The search has yielded one candidate event. This event is consistent with the anticipated background of 1.4 events due to interactions of neutrons in the beam with the residual gas in the evacuated decay region. …

Turbulence In Binary Fluid Flow Systems: A Lattice Boltzmann Approach, Darren M. Wah
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
A method for simulating a turbulent binary fluid flow system based on the Lattice Boltzmann Method (LBM) is presented. The fluid equations up to the Navier-Stokes transport level are derived for this two fluid system, and results from numerical simulations using this method are shown. Finally, grid resolution is performed in a single fluid (LBM) simulation which determines the largest valid mesh size for a simulation that seeks to resolve physical structures of all scales.

Physics Publications
The electronic and geometrical structures of the ground and low-lying excited states of the diatomic AlX and AlX− series (X=H, Li, Be, B, C, N, O, and F) are calculated by the coupled-cluster method with all singles and doubles and noniterative inclusion of triples using a large atomic natural orbital basis. All the ground-state AlX molecules except for AlF can attach an additional electron and form ground-state AlX− anions. The ground-state AlBe−, AlB−, AlC−, AlN−, and AlO− anions possess excited states that are stable toward autodetachment of an extra electron; AlBe− also has a second excited state. Low-lying excited states …

The Atomic Force Microscope In The Elucidation Of Leukocyte Abnormality, Derbrenn O'Connor
Theses
The aim of this project was to investigate the novel use of the atomic force microscope (AFM) as a technique in the elucidation of leukocyte abnormality. To this end, comparative AFM imaging and elasticity studies were performed on normal and myeloid leukaemic leukocytes.
Initially, an evaluation of techniques for the isolation of specific leukocyte (e.g. lymphocytes, granulocytes, etc.) populations from whole blood or leukocyte concentrates, was carried out. It was found that a silanised glass surface failed to select and immobilise a leukocyte population. However, centrifugation of whole blood in an Isopaque-ficoll gradient solution yielded a viable mixed leukocyte population …
Computer Based Methodologies For On-Line Scanning Force Microscopic Detection Of Immunological Binding Events, Patrick Joseph O'Mahony
Computer Based Methodologies For On-Line Scanning Force Microscopic Detection Of Immunological Binding Events, Patrick Joseph O'Mahony
Theses
The overall aim of this work was to develop computer based methodologies for the on-line scanning force microscopic detection of immunological binding events. To achieve this aim it was necessary to develop a rapid, high-resolution data acquisition system to digitise scanning force microscope (SFM) data on-line and then to develop an effective method for extracting the scanner induced background curvature from this data to reveal the nanoscale height binding events. Four techniques were investigated in terms of operational speed and performance accuracy; namely, polynomial interpolation; least squares approximation; real-time recursive least squares approximation; and wavelet approximation.
It was found that …
Effect Of Disorder On The Magnetic Properties Of Smco5, Diandra Leslie-Pelecky, R.L. Schalek
Effect Of Disorder On The Magnetic Properties Of Smco5, Diandra Leslie-Pelecky, R.L. Schalek
Diandra Leslie-Pelecky Publications
Mechanical milling of initially ordered ferromagnetic SmCo5 produces dramatic increases in coercivity after short (15 min to 1 h) milling times, accompanied by remanence ratios on the order of 0.7 and shifted hysteresis loops. X-ray diffraction shows that milling induces both chemical and structural disorder. The hysteresis-loop shift is continuous and nonlinear with temperature over the range 5–300 K. The high coercivities are attributed to the formation of a nanostructure consisting of crystalline SmCo5 regions separated by a disordered interphase.

Sy-Hwang Liou Publications
The noise of YBa2Cu3O7-χ and Ti2Ba2Ca2Cu2O10-χ thin films in the frequency range from 0.5 Hz to 100 kHz was studied. In the normal state, it was found that 1/f noise dominated, with a magnitude strongly dependent on temperature. In the superconducting state, the noise was only observable at frequencies below 5 Hz with our present setup. Equilibrium thermal fluctuation noise was not observed in these films.

Real Time Two Color Variable Resolution Video Moire And Error Map Moire Using A Mach-Zehnder Interferometer, Neville Maycock, August Schutte, Joel H. Blatt
Aerospace, Physics, and Space Science Faculty Publications
A variable resolution two color video moire system has been built which uses a dual laser illuminated Mach-Zehnder interferometer as the fringe projector. One input of the interferometer is illuminated by a He-Ne laser and the other by an Argon-Ion laser, allowing simultaneous projection of red and green fringes with different spatial frequencies. The dual interferometer outputs are also used, allowing illumination of both the target and reference surfaces. Video cameras view the two surfaces and by mixing the video signals with a chroma-key mix in a video special effects generator, real time moire can be observed. A piezo-electrically driven …

Two kinds of aqueous precursor solutions are used to synthesize Mn-Zn ferrite powders: (i) nitrate (NO) precursor-derived from solutions of Mn(NO3)2, Zn(NO3)2, and Fe(NO3)3; and (ii) acetate (AC) precursor-derived from solutions of Mn(CH3COOO)2, Zn(CHCH3COOO)2, and Fe(NO3)3. The composition of the powders synthesized from the precursor AC is very uniform, whereas powders derived from the precursor NO have Mn and Zn segregated on the particle surfaces. In addition, the powders synthesized from precursor AC are solid spherical …

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
MnZn-ferrite has been prepared via high-energy ball milling of elemental oxides MnO, ZnO, and α-Fe2O3. Neutron diffraction measurements suggest a high density of vacancies in a spinel structure. The spinel phase appears to comprise 99.8 wt % of the material in the sample milled for 40 h, with the remainder attributable to unreacted α-Fe2O3. The x-ray absorption near-edge structure was analyzed to provide an understanding of the charge state of the constituent Fe ions. This analysis reveals about 2/3 of Fe cations to be trivalent, increasing to about 3/4 after a 5 …

One unanticipated development of University Studies is the degree to which it rapidly became seen not just as general education, but as the replacement for all generally re quired courses. Because the natural sciences had com prised one of the distribution areas of the old program, expectations that the new program would teach science quickly flowered, although exactly what faculty mean by that term has yet to be established. In fact, discussions of what we intend by science education have brought in creased attention to these expectations as we continually revisit the goals of University Studies. The matter is far …

Chlorine-Containing Gases In Antarctica, M. A. K. Khalil, R. A. Rasmussen
Physics Faculty Publications and Presentations
In recent years, there has been considerable interest in chlorine-containing trace gases in the atmosphere, particularly in Antarctica because of the relationship between chlorofluorocarbons and the antarctic ozone hole. All chlorinecontaining trace gases, whether produced by human activities or by natural processes, have a potential for destroying ozone in the stratosphere. This is a complex environmental problem, but it is clear that manmade chlorine-containing gases are the driving force behind the antarctic ozone hole and, by extension, reductions of stratospheric ozone over other parts of the world [World Meteorological Organization (WMO) 1989, 1991, 1995]. We have taken measurements of the …

The DIS diffractive cross section, dσdiffγ*p→XN/dMx, has been measured in the mass range Mx < 15 GeV for γ*p c.m. energies 60 < W < 200 GeV and photon virtualities Q2 = 7 to 140 GeV2. For fixed Q2 and Mx, the diffractive cross section rises rapidly with W, dσdiffγ*p→X N (Mx, W, Q2)/dMx ∝ Wadiff with adiff = 0.507 ± 0.034 (stat) +0.155-0.046 (syst) corresponding to a t-averaged pomeron trajectory of ̄αℙ = 1.127 ± 0.009 (stat) +0.039-0.012 (syst) which is larger than ̄αℙ observed in hadron-hadron scattering. The W dependence of the diffractive cross section is found to be the same as that of the total cross section for scattering of virtual photons on protons. The data are consistent with the assumption that the diffractive structure function FD(3)2 factorizes according to cursive greek chiℙFD(3)2(cursive greek chiℙ, β, Q2) = (cursive greek chi0//cursive greek chiℙ)nFD(2)2(β, Q2). They are also consistent with QCD based models which incorporate factorization breaking. The rise of cursive greek chiℙFD(3)2 with decreasing cursive greek chiℙ and the weak dependence of FD(2)2 on Q2 suggest a substantial contribution from partonic interactions.

Feasibility Of Fabrication Of Heteroepitaxial Ge_X Si_{1-X}/Si(111) Structure By Pulsed Nd: Yag Laser, R. N. Al-Rawi, R. A. Ismail, R. N. Mousis
Turkish Journal of Physics
Heteroepitaxial Ge_x Si_{1-x} alloy layers have been formed by 10 ms and 300 \mu s laser pulse induced mixing of pure germanium films and Si(111) substrates where Ge films of thickness (500-1250) Å are thermally evaporated onto Si(111) under vacuum pressure \sim 10^{-5} Torr. The near surface of the sample then undergoes rapid melting and regrowth processes during each pulse from a free running Nd; YAG laser. The alloy layers are (4.6-6.5) \mum thick and have a Ge fraction of x = 6-8.2%.

Turkish Journal of Physics
Pulsed laser beam welding experiment were carried out on stainless steel (SUS 304), using vertical and horizontal electric fields of different intensities to study its effectiveness on the welding process, regarding depth and weld quality. Pulsed Nd: YAG laser emitting 10 ms pulses in the TEM_{00} mode at 1.06 \mu m wave length was employed, microstructure of welded zone and defect were investigated using optical and scanning electron microscopes. Tensile test and microhardness measurements were carried out to evaluate the weld quality. Welding by this method increased the efficiency tremendously and a depth increase of 85% was achieved.

Dynamical Evolution Of The Rs Cvn-Type Binaries, Osman Demi̇rcan
Turkish Journal of Physics
The orbital angular momentum (orbital AM) of a sample of forty RS CVn-type binaries with the orbital periods P \leq 10 days were estimated and the orbital AM distribution with respect to P was critically interpreted as the orbital AM evolution of these systems caused by the magnetic breaking process with the existence of spin-orbit coupling. The empirical relations (between the orbital AM loss, mass loss and period variation) derived from the diagram of the orbital AM distribution were used in deriving a semi-empirical formula for the dynamical evolution of the RS CVn-type binaries. The magnetic breaking induced dynamical evolution …
