Geophysical Strain And Tilt : Measurement Methodology And Analysis Of Data, Robert Mackay
Geophysical Strain And Tilt : Measurement Methodology And Analysis Of Data, Robert Mackay
Dissertations and Theses
Tilt and strain meters were installed on the Portland State University campus in the summer of 1982 and data was collected for 4 months. Instrument selection, operation, installation and performance are discussed.
Suggestions that could enhance data quality and data collection efficiency are presented.
An analysis procedure is suggested and an example of this procedure for an interval of data is discussed. The influence of the temperature, pressure, rainfall and solid earth tides on the signal is investigated, as well as the correlation between similar channels of the different tilt instruments. The temperature, rainfall and solid earth tides were all …

Bound-States, Virtual States, And Non-Exponential Decay Via Path-Integrals, Br Holstein
Barry R Holstein
Using path integral techniques we demonstrate how three quantum-mechanical phenomena-alpha decay, nonexponential decay, and resonant scattering-can be treated. This procedure is an algebraic one yet reproduces the usual results obtained via solution of the Schrödinger equation via WKB methods.

Evidence For Coupling Of Velocity And Composition Fluctuations In A Binary Liquid Mixture, James V. Maher, Nalini Easwar, W. I. Goldburg, M. Joshua
Physics: Faculty Publications
A critical mixture of isobutyric acid and water was quenched from the one-phase region into the two-phase region and, after the spinodal ring was well developed, a reverse quench returned the system to the one-phase region. Light-scattering measurements for this process exhibit a clearly nondiffusive relaxation which, at least for early times after the quench reversal, is in good agreement with Ruiz's scheme for the coupling of velocity and composition fluctuations.
Electron Capture And Ionisation In H⁺, He2++Li Collisions, Ronald E. Olson
Electron Capture And Ionisation In H⁺, He2++Li Collisions, Ronald E. Olson
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
Single electron capture and ionization cross sections have been calculated for H++Li and He2++Li collisions at energies ranging from 50 to 400 keV amu-1. Double electrons capture cross sections are presented for the He2++Li system. The classical-trajectory Monte Carlo method and the independent-electron model were used to calculate the cross sections. In the energy range investigated, the ionization process is dominated by electron removal of the valence Li(2s) electron, whereas the single and double electron capture processes are the result of capture from the K shell of the lithium atom.
On The Ising Model For Amorphous Ferromagnets, Harry A. Brown
On The Ising Model For Amorphous Ferromagnets, Harry A. Brown
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
A calculation is made of the effect on the critical temperature of a ferromagnet whose exchange integrals are taken to be random variables. The Bethe-Peierls-Weiss approximation is used to find the partition function, Z, for an Ising system and then a configuration average is taken to find (InZ), from which the resulting decrease in the critical temperature can be found. Other results are discussed, and comparisons made with the present result.

Angular Scattering In Slow Multiple-Charged Ion, Atom Collisions, Ronald E. Olson, M. Kimura
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
The C6++H system is used to illustrate the importance of large-angle scattering in collisions between slow multiply charged ions and atoms. A quantum mechanical description based on a diabatic formalism of the collision system is used to obtain differential cross sections for electron capture in the relative velocity range nu =1*107 to 3*107 cm s-1 (Ecm approximately=48 to 430 eV). The threshold for angular scattering is at E theta approximately=0.2 keV deg which correlates with the curve crossing between initial and final molecular states located at Rx approximately=8a0. The centre-of-mass acceptance angles required to observe fixed fractions of the total …

Using a Fano-effect polarized electron source and a state-selected thermally dissociated hydrogen beam, we measured the interference between the direct and exchange scattering amplitudes for electron-impact ionization of atomic hydrogen between 14.1 and 30.3 eV. We report the data from these measurements and the results of corrections applied to previously published data.

Temperature-dependent Hall-effect measurements on two Cr-doped GaAs samples
show a dominant center at E1 =0.324—1.4 x 10-4T eV, with respect to the valence-band edge. By comparison with secondary-ion mass spectroscopy measurements of the Cr concentration, and recent EPR measurements of the Cr2+, Cr3+, and Cr4+ concentration in several samples, it is shown unambiguously that this energy describes the Cr4+→Cr3+ transition. This is the first conclusive evidence for a charge-state transition involving Cr4+ in GaAs.

The isotope dependence in the angular distribution of electron-capture cross sections for protons and deuterons with equal velocity (E=40 keV/u) colliding with atomic hydrogen or deuterium targets is predicted theoretically and observed experimentally. A projectile-dependent effect is observed at small scattering angles. No target dependence was detected in the differential cross sections. A scaling relationship is determined which permits the prediction of differential cross sections for hydrogen-isotope projectiles.

Nonlinear Anelasticity Of Magnesium, Alexander Aning, Tetsuro Suzuki, Manfred Wuttig
Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
An approximate solution of the equation of motion of a nonlinear anelastic reed at or near resonance is presented. The steady state solution reproduces the well-known nonlinear resonances. The solution also predicts the existence of auto modulations, i.e., self-excited modulations of the amplitude and phase at constant power of excitation of the reed. Numerical examples of such auto modulations are presented for an antisymmetric deformation potential. Experimental studies of finite amplitude oscillations of a magnesium reed vibrating at 72 and 431 Hz at room temperature confirm the existence of auto modulations. The experimental results can be semi quantitatively described in …

The question of the nature of the ultraviolet and X-ray radiation field of cataclysmic binaries is addressed. The spectrum and luminosity of this radiation are important in determining the mass transfer rate and energy budget of the system and in studies of the ejecta surrounding novae. In many systems, the soft X-ray luminosity is ~ 102-104 times weaker than predicted by simple accretion models. We discuss several possible solutions to this discrepancy. The most likely are either that the optical luminosity of a typical old nova is produced partly by reprocessed ultraviolet light from the white dwarf, …

Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications
The constraints imposed by X-ray, ultraviolet, and optical observations on the absorbing material in the Seyfert 1.5 galaxy NGC 4151 are discussed. These observations are compared to the predictions of photoionization models of both broad line region clouds, which Holt et al. identify as the source of the extinction, and to models of the narrow line region gas. The weakness of both C III] 1909 and the broad component of Hα relative to C IV 1549, together with the absence of an absorption Balmer jump, indicate that the ionization parameter for the broad line region is a factor …

Honey bees are sensitive to earth strength magnetic fields and are reported to contain magnetite (Fe3O4) in their abdomens. We report bands of cells around each abdominal segment that contain numerous electron-opaque, iron-containing granules. The iron is principally in the form of hydrous iron oxides.

ac susceptibility and magnetization measurements are reported for a number of Gd and Tb based glasses. Raman magnetic anisotropy effects are observed in both the Gd and Tb glasses. The Gd glasses show a transition to an infinite susceptibility state and in some cases a further transition to an hysteretic state at low temperatures in which field-cooling and magnetic viscosity effects are observed. The Tb glass shows only a small speromagnetic peak at low temperatures. The ratio of anisotropy strength to exchange was varied in the Gd glasses by alloying, and the effect of this on the resulting magnetic states …

Magnetic hysteresis and crytallization studies are reported for several (Pr80Ga20)100-xFex metallic glasses, where 30≤x≤80. Thermomagnetic data show the presence of two magnetic phases which are probably responsible for the relatively high coercive fields observed at cryogenic temperatures. As the iron content of the sample is increased, the magnetic moment increases substantially but the coercivity is drastically reduced. In (Pr80Ga20)70Fe30 the observed coercive fields are strongly temperature dependent indicating strong thermal activation effects which are consistent with the magnetic viscosity measurements. The hard magnetic properties disappear after …

The effect of hydrogen on magnetic properties of metallic glasses of the form (R80Ga20)1-xTxHy where R=Pr, Nd, Gd, Tb, Er; T=Cr, Fe, Co, B; 0≤x≤0.3 and 0≤y≤1.7 is reported. The anisotropic rare earth glasses without H all exhibit speromagnetic (spin-glass-like) transitions and the effect of hydrogen, in most cases, is to lower the peak in χac significantly but leave TC relatively unchanged. For the Gd glass with T=Fe and x=0.1 the introduction of H at the level y=0.55 causes a large decrease in TC and a significant increase …

Magnetic field and temperature dependences of the electrical resistivities and Hall resistivities were measured for the metallic glass ferromagnets Fe13Ni60Cr5Si10B12, Fe37Ni36Cr5Si10B12, Fe81B13.5Si3.5C2, and Fe5Co75Si15B5. Resistance minima and magnetoresistivity of the FeNiCr glasses have been found to be consistent with a modified Kondo model of low temperature scattering. The Hall resistivities are positive and large. The spontaneous Hall coefficients of the FeNiCr glasses are in …

Spin Systems On Hierarchical Lattices. Introduction And Thermodynamic Limit, Robert B. Griffiths, Miron Kaufman
Miron Kaufman
A number of exactly soluble models in statistical mechanics can be produced with the use of spins interacting with nearest neighbors on a hierarchical lattice. A general definition and several examples of such lattices are given, and the topological properties of one of these, the "diamond" lattice, are discussed in detail. It is shown that the free energy has a well-defined thermodynamic limit for a large class of discrete spin models on hierarchical lattices.

First-Order Transitions In Defect Structures At A Second-Order Critical Point, Miron Kaufman, Robert B. Griffiths
Miron Kaufman
On certain hierarchical lattices the order parameter on a defect line increases discontinuously at the bulk critical temperature for q-state Potts models when q is sufficiently large, even though the bulk order parameter increases continuously. It is suggested that the same behavior may occur for two-dimensional lattices with 2 < q <= 4.

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works
The first measurements of elastic differential cross sections have been carried out for 25-, 50-, and 100-keV protons scattered through very small angles by helium atoms. The University of Missouri Rolla energy-loss spectrometer provided the required high angular resolution and also separated the elastically scattered ions from the inelastically scattered ions. The data are compared to our Born, Glauber, and classical calculations as well as a four-state calculation. All of the measured elastic differential cross sections are more sharply peaked than theory for the smallest scattering angles. At the larger scattering angles all of the measured elastic differential cross sections …

Electrical resistivity measurements are reported on several metallic glasses based on Pr and Tb, and Ga and various transition metals as the glass formers. In general negative temperature coefficients were observed and these are discussed in terms of the extended Ziman theory and the tunneling or localization theory. Low temperature structure in the resistivity can be understood with the coherent exchange scattering model of Asomoza et al.

Sy-Hwang Liou Publications
Sputtered amorphous FexNb100-x (30 ≤ x ≤ 85) has been studied by Mössbauer spectroscopy and resistivity measurements. The samples with x< 60 are nonmagnetic. The magnetic ordering temperatures of the samples with x ≥ 60 increase with Fe content. Small magnetic hyperfine fields are observed in the magnetic samples, consistent with the small Fe moments measured. The resistivity of the magnetic and nonmagnetic samples show different temperature dependences. Only the magnetic samples exhibit a resistivity minimum, indicating a Kondo-like mechanism.

Structural Effects On K-Vacancy Production By Protons Of Extreme Relativistic Energies, P.T. Leung, M. L. Rustgi
Physics Faculty Publications and Presentations
The effect on the K-vacancy-production cross section due to the finite distribution of charge and magnetic moment of the incident proton is examined. Numerical results are given for two target elements, namely, Ni and U. The results show that even at energy as high as 10³ GeV the incident proton can still be regarded as a point charge. The effect on the stopping power of matter is discussed.

Skyrme has shown that the SU ⊗ SU(2) chiral model has nontrivial topological sectors with static solutions for suitable Lagrangians. The baryon number B and strangeness of these sectors have been studied, and the existence of bound states of the nucleon field to the lightest solitons is shown. It is found that there must be long-lived levels with |B|≳6 and |s|≳6 and 1.8 GeV≲m≲5.6 GeV, some having half-integral charge and exotic relation between B and s, that can be pair produced in, say, e+e− collisions.

Explicit Determination Of The Complex Refractive Index Of An Absorbing Medium From Reflectance Measurements At And Near Normal Incidence, R. M.A. Azzam
Electrical Engineering Faculty Publications
Measurement of reflectance at normal incidence R and its fractional change ΔR/R caused by a change of the angle of incidence from 0 to a small angle ϕ (ϕ≲ 20°) permits explicit determination of both the refractive index n and extinction coefficient k of an isotropic absorbing medium. The medium of incidence (ambient) is assumed to have a known refractive index (e.g., =1 for vacuum or air), and the incident light is either p or s linearly polarized.
