The Raman and infrared wavenumbers of solid HCONH2 and DCOND2 were measured at 20 K and high temperatures. More peaks were observed in both the lattice and internal mode regions than were expected from the known structure, so the structure was redetermined. The resulting structure is in agreement with earlier determinations, so the extra peaks are attributed to second-order effects produced by a large anharmonicity associated with the hydrogen bonds. Attempts to model the structural details and the lattice dynamics had only a limited success, which may again be attributed to anharmonic effects and to the basic inadequacies of the models.

The self-consistent-field model for K shakeoff in β± decay and electron-capture decay is extended to deal with the processes of L shakeoff accompanying K capture and K shakeoff accompanying L capture. The results indicate that many-body effects play an important role and reduce the shakeoff probability.

Samples of solid deuterium, cooled below 4.2 K, and irradiated by 15 MeV protons, will spontaneously flash. The flash-spectrum occurs in the near infrared with a maximum close to 920 nm. The flash intensity is two to three orders of magnitude greater than a steady-state emission observed in the same spectral region. The flash frequency is 1 every 1 to 3 min after several hours of irradiation of 10 nA/cm2. Heat pulses have been detected accompanying many of the flashes and both can be stimulated by the application of external heat triggers. Following the optical flash, the steady-state emission intensity decreases by an amount that is wavelength dependent. While it is thought that these flashes are caused by atomic association in the solid, the species responsible for the optical emission is uncertain as is the transition itself.

The effect of polydispersity on the isotropic-nematic phase transition of rigid rods is analyzed in terms of a second-order perturbation theory, in which the width σ of an arbitrary number fraction is used as a perturbation parameter. These results show that the isotropic-nematic phase transition takes place at the isotropic density nI, where nIL¯N2D=4.189(1+2.128σ2), and the nematic density nN, where nNL¯N2D=5.336(1+1.655σ2), with D and L¯N being the diameter and the number-averaged length of rods in the nematic phase. At the transition density, the weight- and number-averaged orientation order parameters have the values SW=0.7922+1.1333σ2 and SL=0.7922+0.816σ2; the ratio between the number-averaged length of rods in the isotropic phase, L¯I, and that in the nematic phase, L¯N, is L¯I/L¯N=1-1.844σ2. These perturbation results are compared with the numerical solution of the equilibrium conditions for the isotropic-nematic transition of rods obeying two modeled number fraction distributions.

We examine possible nematic to smectic and nematic to columnar phase transitions for binary mixtures of perfectly parallel aligned hard cylinders with equal diameters but different lengths by using the free-energy functional within the third virial coefficient approximation. The regions of stability are located and the phase diagram of the system is calculated for different values of the ratio of the two cylindrical lengths. The nematic phase can directly transform into the columnar phase for values with a length ratio smaller than 0.635, showing that dispersity in molecular length can stabilize columnar versus smectic ordering of these mixtures.

The equations of motion of the Hénon-Heiles model have been numerically integrated for 100 different starting conditions on the critical energy surface E=1/6. The truncation error in the data was monitored using the separation in phase space of two numerical histories with the same initial conditions, based on different time steps, h=2−13 and h’=2−14. From the data for which the truncation error is less than 1% it is found that the 100 histories fall into three categories, (a) regular (or quasiperiodic), (b) irregular (or chaotic), and (c) regular-irregular. The three-dimensional phase space portraits prove to be the most useful tool in distinguishing between regular and irregular behavior. In category (c) the orbit switches reversibly from (to) regular to (from) irregular behavior. The data suggest that all 100 orbits, followed for long enough times, will show regular-irregular behavior and moreover the phase points in these orbits will spend, on average, equal amounts of time in the quasiperiodic and chaotic regimes.

The extinction, absorption and scattering of laser radiation by small aerosol particles of Fe, Fe3O4, Al, and Al2O3 have been calculated using Mie theory at wavelengths of 1.06 and 10.6 mum. It is shown that the attenuation of incident laser radiation by particles with radii r in the range 10 nm less-than-or-equal-to r less-than-or-equal-to 10 mum can be significant over pathlengths as small as 10(-2) m when the ratio of aerosol mass density to solid density, M/rho greater-than-or-similar-to 10(-4). Under certain conditions highly directed scattering of laser radiation can occur. Some implications of these results with regard to processing of materials with laser radiation are discussed.

Trace element analysis of mineral grains by micro-PIXE demands prior knowledge of major element concentrations from which the appropriate matrix corrections are derived. We describe the micro-PIXE determination of major elements using 750 keV protons. The major element concentrations measured for a variety of minerals are in good agreement with recommended values.

Effect of J term in the t-t'-J model on the Fermi surface, density of states and the Drude plasma frequency have been studied. The J term is treated within the uniform bond theory of Affleck and Marston [Phys. Rev. B39, 11538 (1989)]. Inclusion of the J term succeeds in removing the Brinkman-Rice divergence in the density of states at Fermi energy but fails to obtain an insulating state at zero doping. We have also shown that an exact treatment of the J term does indeed lead to an insulating' state at half-filling.
