Comments On 'Fluctuations In Guiding Center Plasma In Two Dimensions', George Vahala, Linda L. Vahala, David Montgomery, Glenn Joyce Jan 1974

Comments On 'Fluctuations In Guiding Center Plasma In Two Dimensions', George Vahala, Linda L. Vahala, David Montgomery, Glenn Joyce

Electrical & Computer Engineering Faculty Publications

It is stated that the principal result of the paper by Taylor and Thompson (see abstr. A14511 of 1973) on autocorrelations in density for the electrostatic guiding center plasma in two dimensions is wrong owing to an incorrect integration. It is further stated that there is no meaningful distinction between an `interaction cutoff' and a `fluctuation cutoff'.

Properties Of Microwave Cavities Containing Magnetic Resonant Samples, Kathy A. Rages, Robert E. Sawyer, Edward Boyd Hale Dec 1973

Properties Of Microwave Cavities Containing Magnetic Resonant Samples, Kathy A. Rages, Robert E. Sawyer, Edward Boyd Hale

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

Properties of TE011 cylindrical, microwave cavities containing cylindrical samples of various radii and dielectric constants are calculated. The properties considered are the resonant frequency, quality factor (Q), relevant magnetic filling factor for spin transitions (ε), and a signal sensitivity factor (Qε) for a lossless sample. Sample sizes range from zero radius to full cavity radius with some experimental data on less than full length samples. The choice of dielectric constants ranges from one to sixteen. The data are presented in dimensionless form since they will be of use to other ESR experimentalists. It is shown that use of large samples …


A Photographic Study Of The Infrared Oh Airglow, G. C. Loos Dec 1973

A Photographic Study Of The Infrared Oh Airglow, G. C. Loos

Physics & Astronomy ETDs

OH airglow is due to the rotational-vibrational transitions of the hydroxyl radical. Previous efforts to find the airglow's emission height in the atmosphere are discussed. Photography of the infrared airglow with a fast 35mm camera and Eastman Kodak high speed infrared film is described and a method for triangulating emission heights by two station photography is explained. The techniques for reduction of film data to height measurements and velocity measurements are presented. Observations are reported concerning the frequency of occurrence of bright spots and other features on the OH background and the intensity of the airglow as a function of …

A Direct Measurement Of The Ratio Of The Reaction Cross Sections For Two-Photon And Three-Photon Positron Annihilation In Aluminum And Silver, Robert Maurice Heavenrich Dec 1973

A Direct Measurement Of The Ratio Of The Reaction Cross Sections For Two-Photon And Three-Photon Positron Annihilation In Aluminum And Silver, Robert Maurice Heavenrich

Masters Theses

The probability of annihilation of a positron with its antiparticle, an electron, is spin dependent. Since both particles have spin component one -half, there are two possible relative orientations of their spins they can either be aligned (parallel) in the 3S, triplet, state with total spin component │Sz│= ½ n - ½ n = 1 n or they can be opposite (antiparallel) in the 1S; singlet, state with│Sz│= ½ n - ½ n = 0. To conserve energy and angular momentum, annihilation from the triplet state must result in the creation of an odd …

Self‐Focusing Of Laser Light In The Isotropic Phase Of A Nematic Liquid Crystal, D.V.G.L.N. Rao, S. Jayaraman Nov 1973

Self‐Focusing Of Laser Light In The Isotropic Phase Of A Nematic Liquid Crystal, D.V.G.L.N. Rao, S. Jayaraman

Physics Faculty Publications

Self‐focusing of ruby laser light is studied as a function of sample length and temperature in the isotropic phase of nematic liquid‐crystal MBBA. The critical power for self‐focusing, 0.36 kW, observed near the phase transition temperature is a factor of 20 times less than that for CS2. The corresponding nonlinear index 4.4 × 10−10 esu is the largest value known so far for any material.


Dissociative Attachment From The O2 (A1 Δ G) State, P.D. Burrow Nov 1973

Dissociative Attachment From The O2 (A1 Δ G) State, P.D. Burrow

Paul Burrow Publications

The dissociative attachment cross section for production of O- by electron impact on the metastable O2 (a1 Δ g) state is studied. The cross section is found to be 4.6 ± 1.3 × 10-18 cm2 at its maximum. From the measured energy dependence, we infer that the dissociative attachment process takes place through the O (2 Пu) state as in the case of O- production from the O2 ground state. The information thus obtained is used to estimate the portion of the cross section for excitation of the …

Hyperfine Interactions In The Intramolecular Antiferromagnet (Fe Salen C1)2, R. Lechan, C. Nicolini, C. R. Abeledo, Richard B. Frankel Sep 1973

Hyperfine Interactions In The Intramolecular Antiferromagnet (Fe Salen C1)2, R. Lechan, C. Nicolini, C. R. Abeledo, Richard B. Frankel

Physics

Magnetic hyperfine interactions in (Fe salen C1)2 have been studied using the Mössbauer effect in external magnetic fields up to 80 kOe and for 4.2 ≤ T ≤ 80 °K. The low‐temperature results are adequately described by a simple intramolecular exchange model with J = 7.0 cm−1 and a hyperfine interaction constant of −180 kOe per unit spin. At higher temperature the effective field approximation breaks down. Data for (Fe salen)2O are also briefly reported.


Orbital Ground State Inversion In [Fe(H2O)6](Clo4)2, W. M. Reiff, Richard B. Frankel, C. R. Abeledo Sep 1973

Orbital Ground State Inversion In [Fe(H2O)6](Clo4)2, W. M. Reiff, Richard B. Frankel, C. R. Abeledo

Physics

Mössbauer spectroscopy in external magnetic fields has been used to measure the signs of the principal components of the electric field gradient Vzz in the two forms of [Fe(H2O)6)(Cl04)2. The signs are Vzznegative for low temperature form (A) with quadrupole splitting ΔEA = 3.4 mm/sec, and Vzz positive for high temperature form (B) with ΔEB = 1.4 mm/sec. This implies a trigonally distorted ligand field and the transition (A) → (B) corresponds to compression → elongation with respect to the trigonal axis.


Raman Spectrum Of Gadolinium Molybdate Above And Below The Ferroelectric Transition, Frank Ullman, B. J. Holden, B. N. Ganguly, John R. Hardy Sep 1973

Raman Spectrum Of Gadolinium Molybdate Above And Below The Ferroelectric Transition, Frank Ullman, B. J. Holden, B. N. Ganguly, John R. Hardy

John R. Hardy Papers

90 °-scattered Raman spectra of single-domain gadolinium molybdate have been obtained at room temperature and above the 159 °C ferroelectric transition on several crystal orientations. Lines in the 0-200-cm-1 range can all be associated with Raman-active phonons and are identified by symmetry considerations, scattering-efficiency calculations, and comparison of spectra for different crystal orientations. Lines in the 200-1000-cm-1 range can be identified with coupled vibrations of tetrahedral molybdate ions. Spectra for frequencies above 1000 cm-1 originate from impurity flourescence. The effect of the presence of multiple domains on the spectra was determined; the observed differences between single-domain and …


On The Reactions Of N2 With O, John B. Delos Sep 1973

On The Reactions Of N2 With O, John B. Delos

Arts & Sciences Articles

Unimolecular decomposition of N2O, quenching of O(1D) by N2, and vibrational relaxation of N2 in the presence of O(3P) are all believed to occur by the same curve crossing mechanism. This mechanism is examined making use of a complete theory of curve crossings that we have developed earlier. Good agreement with experiment is found for the unimolecular decomposition rate. The simple curve crossing mechanism does not explain the observed O(1D) quenching rate; this rate must be due to complex formation and/or additional crossings. At high temperatures, the calculated vibrational relaxation time …


Orbital Ground State Reversal In The High‐Spin Complex Fe(Ii) (N, N′‐Dicyclohexylthiourea)6(Clo4)2, R. Latorre, C. R. Abeledo, Richard B. Frankel, J. A. Costamagna, W. M. Reiff, E. Frank Sep 1973

Orbital Ground State Reversal In The High‐Spin Complex Fe(Ii) (N, N′‐Dicyclohexylthiourea)6(Clo4)2, R. Latorre, C. R. Abeledo, Richard B. Frankel, J. A. Costamagna, W. M. Reiff, E. Frank

Physics

Mössbauer spectroscopy of iron (II)(N, N′‐Dicyclohexylthiourea)6 (ClO4)2 shows the existence of two isomers. At low temperatures (T < 200°K) a form A with quadrupole splitting ΔE = 3.31 mm∕sec is stable. At and above room temperature a form B with ΔE = 1.32 mm∕sec is stable. For 200 °K < T < 300°K both forms are observed with the BA ratio increasing with increasing temperature. The values of ΔE are typical of Fe2+ with an orbital singlet and an orbital doublet ground state for A and B, respectively. The isomer shift and magnetic susceptibility results indicate that both …


Lattice Dynamics Of A Rigid-Ion Model For Gadolinium Molybdate, L. L. Boyer, John R. Hardy Sep 1973

Lattice Dynamics Of A Rigid-Ion Model For Gadolinium Molybdate, L. L. Boyer, John R. Hardy

John R. Hardy Papers

Results of lattice-dynamical calculations are presented which support the view that the ferroelectric phase transition in gadolinium molybdate (GMO) arises from the softening and ultimate instability of a doubly degenerate zone-edge mode of the high-temperature paraelectric phase. We have used a rigid-ion model in which the short-range force constants are obtained from a detailed knowledge of the crystal structure together with the conditions imposed by the requirement that the crystal must be in static equilibrium under the combined influence of both Coulomb and short-range forces. Our results show that this type of approach is very useful when one is dealing …


Magnetic Interactions And High-Field Magnetization In Dilute Magnetic Alloys , J.M. Franz, David J. Sellmyer Sep 1973

Magnetic Interactions And High-Field Magnetization In Dilute Magnetic Alloys , J.M. Franz, David J. Sellmyer

David Sellmyer Publications

Magnetic interactions have been investigated in Cu(Mn) and Cu(Fe) alloys with concentrations ranging from several hundred to several thousand ppm. In each system two sets of alloys were prepared in different ways to test for sensitivity to structrual modifications. In the Cu(Mn) alloys there was very little difference in magnetic properties of the two sets of alloys which is consistent with the expectation that the Cu(Mn) alloys form good random solid solutions. The magnetic properties were compared with the recent mean-random-field theory of Klein in the low-temperature limit. It was found that the theory is able to explain the concentration …

Synthetic Analogs Of The Active Sites Of Iron-Sulfur Proteins. Structure And Properties Of Bis[O-Xylyldithiolato-Μ2-Sulfidoferrate(Iii)], An Analog Of The 2fe-2s Proteins, J. J. Mayerle, Richard B. Frankel, R. H. Holm, James A. Ibers, W. D. Phillips, J. F. Weiher

Physics

The synthetic analog approach has been applied to a clarification of the active sites of 2Fe-2S* proteins. The compound (Et4N)2[FeS(SCH2)2C6H4]2, derived from o-xylyl-α,α′-dithiol, has been prepared and its structure has been determined by x-ray diffraction. The centrosymmetric anion contains two tetrahedrally coordinated ferric ions bridged by two sulfide ions and separated by 2.70 Å. Comparison of electronic, Mössbauer, and proton magnetic resonance spectra and magnetic susceptibility of the anion with the corresponding properties of the oxidized forms of the proteins reveals …


Hot Electron Injection Into Dense Argon, Nitrogen, And Hydrogen, Pavel Smejtek, M. Silver, K. S. Dy, David G. Onn Aug 1973

Hot Electron Injection Into Dense Argon, Nitrogen, And Hydrogen, Pavel Smejtek, M. Silver, K. S. Dy, David G. Onn

Physics Faculty Publications and Presentations

Hot electrons have been injected into very dense argon, nitrogen, and hydrogen gases and liquids. The current‐voltage characteristics are experimentally determined for densities (N) of argon, nitrogen, and hydrogen ranging from about 10²⁰ to 10²² cm⁻³ and applied fields (E) ranging from about 10 to 10⁴ V cm⁻¹. The argon data show a square root E∕N dependence of the current. The nitrogen and hydrogen data show a complicated dependence of the current on E∕N due to the rapid thermalization in the region of the image potential of the injected electrons through inelastic collision processes not present in argon. A hydrodynamic‐two‐fluid …

Comment On "Length And Velocity Formulas In Approximate Oscillator-Strength Calculations", Anthony F. Starace Aug 1973

Comment On "Length And Velocity Formulas In Approximate Oscillator-Strength Calculations", Anthony F. Starace

Anthony F. Starace Publications

A previous paper by Starace showed that the length formula for the electric-dipole matrix element is the only consistent one for calculations that solve for the exact eigenfunctions of an approximate Hamiltonian containing a nonlocal potential. It is emphasized here that disagreement between such a length-formula calculation and experiment indicates inadequacy of the approximate Hamiltonian and not that the velocity formula may be preferable.
