Universal conductance fluctuations (UCF) are a novel quantum interference effect in small, weakly random systems which cleanly demonstrate the importance of electron phase coherence at low temperatures (Lee, Stone, and Fukuyama, 1987). Recently, much attention in the study of UCF has been focused on the effects of magn...

Having investigated the significance of lowest-order covariant Feynman “tree” (no loop) diagrams for strong, electromagnetic, and weak interactions, it is quite natural to try to extend the approach to the fourth fundamental force, that of gravity. The problem is that the gravitational interaction is so weak that quant...

Bis(phthalocyaninato) lanthanide sandwich compounds have been synthesized for ytterbium and thulium. Low temperature magnetic susceptibility data suggest a strong antiferromagnetic interaction between the lanthanide f-electrons and the phthalocyaninato ligand radical electron.

Semimagnetic IV–VI compounds have been studied for about a decade. Nevertheless the amount of knowledge which has been accumulated is much less than compared to the situation in A _1-X ^II Mn_XB^VI or A _1-X ^II Fe_XB^VI alloys. The complications due to the many valley band structure, the fact that the band edge functi...

The low-energy part of the He(Iα) or He(IIα) PE spectrum of a hypothetical molecule M (shown in Fig. 1) consists of four bands, ① to ④, which — for simplicity — we assume not to overlap. The bands ① and ② exhibit resolved vibrational fine structure, whereas the fine structure of ③ and ④ cannot be resolved because of li...

Proton rings have the potential capability of accelerating polarized proton beams. This capability has been explored and utilized at Saclay, Argonne and then at Brookhaven for energies up to the order of 20 GeV. The difficulty lies in accelerating the beam, without loss of polarization, through a number of spin resonan...

A complete set of polarization transfer coefficients ( D _ ij ), as well as differential cross section, analyzing power ( A _ y ), and induced polarization ( P ), are now available^1,2 for the 4^- “stretched” T = 0 and T = 1 transitions in ^16O( $$\left( {\vec{p},\vec{p}'} \right)$$ )^16O at E _p = 200 MeV.

The influence of electron correlation on interference effects in energetic ion-atom collisions is analyzed. Electron-correlation phenomena are discussed in terms of dielectronic processes which are due to two-electron transitions produced by the electron-electron interaction. The collision systems are treated using the...

It has now been almost ten years since a charged-particle polarimeter was first coupled to a high resolution spectrometer, the HRS at Los Alamos National Laboratory, for use at intermediate energies. During this time, polarimeters of similar design and comparable performance have been built at TRIUMF and at IUCF. Yet d...

A brief sketch of the scattering scenario was presented earlier in Eqs.(3–83)-(3–90), in connection with the continuum solutions for a Dirac particle in a central potential. In this chapter we shall present a more detailed exposition of relativistic scattering for Dirac particles, various aspects of which apply to any ...

Since the formulation of the periodic table by Mendeleev in the last century and its explanation in terms of atomic structure during the early part of this century, there has been a constant search for ways of accounting for the regularities and symmetries observed in nature’s building blocks. In the case of atoms a de...

The normal state properties of the cuprate superconductors are quite unusual, and depend strongly on the degree of doping. In the absence of electron-electron interactions, one would expect that the undoped systems would be simple metals, however it was found that the undoped systems are antiferromagnetic and insulatin...
