Absolute cross sections of the

n reaction have been measured at
Ed=8.9 MeV in order to study the reaction mechanism at low energy. A gas target in a cell with very thin wall (0.25 mg/cm
2) is used to detect low energy α-particles. In the coincidence spectra, prominent peaks are observed corresponding to the strong
n-α final state interaction. Shapes of the spectra are well reproduced by the simple impulse approximation and the single-level R-matrix theory, but the absolute values as well as the angular dependence of the experimental peak cross section can not be fitted by these calculations. Independence of the peak cross section from kinematical variables such as the spectator energy and the nucleon-α scattering angle indicates that effects of multiple processes in the reaction are dominant at this low energy. A simple physical picture of the processes is presented.

Acoustic surface-magnon spectra are calculated for semi-infinite ferro- and antiferromagnets, where spins are coupled via exchange interactions both with nearest neighbors (
J1) and with next-nearest neighbors (
J2). It is found that, when the parameter α=
J2|
J1| lies in certain intervals, the surface-magnon frequency is negative or imaginary, although the bulk-magnon frequencies remain real and positive. This condition indicates that the uniform ferro- or antiferromagnetic spin arrangement is not stable. For several cases of this type, it is shown that a nonuniform spin arrangement, characterized by a rearrangement of spins in the surface region, has a lower classical spin-ordering energy than the uniform state, and hence is stable. In various cases, various different arrangements of surface spins are found to be stable, including a helical arrangement, in which spins in the surface region are ordered with helical symmetry while bulk spins are in an antiferromagnetic state.

In the Slater model for itinerant electron antiferromagnets, spin wave spectrum is calculated by taking into account long range Coulomb interactions. The method of normal mode is used in the random phase approximation in order to get various modes of spin waves, i.e., acoustical and polar spin waves. It is shown that polar spin waves exist when the inter-atomic Coulomb interaction is sufficiently strong. Furthermore, the velocity of the acoustical spin wave is shown to be reduced by the inter-atomic Coulomb and exchange interactions. The magnitudes of these reductions are numerically estimated for an antiferromagnet with b.c.c. structure. It is shown that the observed result of the spin wave velocity for Cr is explained by these numerical results.

For advancing the physics of phase transitions, it is better to have a good command of various-type systems of transition parameters than only of ordinary rectangular ones. A general
n-dimensional, reducible but unreduced, spherical system of transition parameters is proposed for certain reasons. One with

Hyperfine particles (100 to 1000 Å) of vanadium were prepared by the evaporation method and the magnetic susceptibility of these fine particles was measured in the temperature range between 1.6 to 300 K. The magnetic susceptibility of these fine particles was found to consist of two parts, one was the Pauli type which was also observed in the bulk state of the metal and the other was the Curie-Weiss type overlapping the temperature independent one. The C-W component of the susceptibility increases with the decrease of particle size as the inverse of average diameter, suggesting that the magnetic moment which revealed the Curie-Weiss type susceptibility originates from the surface region of the particle. Localization of 3d-electron at the surface of particle is a probable origin of the magnetic moment.

Dynamic threshold fields for the idealized uniform rotational switching in thin films are studied on the basis of the numerical solutions of the Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation of motion. Dynamic critical switching curves deduced from the numerical solutions calculated up to the near equilibrium state are quite different from the usual critical switching asteroid. A part of am irreversible rotation region associated with the present dynamic switching curve is found to enter into the reversible rotation region associated with the usual critical switching asteroid. This curious aspect of the dynamic critical switching curve is well understood by the dynamic consideration in which the kinetic energy and the energy dissipation in a rotational motion of the magnetization are taken into account. The present dynamic treatment is necessary only when the rising time of a driving field is less than 1 ns.

H shows a large negative value at 4.2 K and changes its sign from negative to positive with increasing temperature. This anomalous temperature dependence of dω⁄d
H is ascribed to the volume change associated with the induced moment of Co which depends on the effective field acting on the Co moment. A quantitative estimation of dω⁄d
H based upon a molecular field approximation shows an excellent agreement with the experiments. The large value of dω⁄d
H of this system as well as its large spontaneous volume magnetostriction are explained as the volume change caused by the induced moment of the Co atom.

The composition-graded Invar alloy films with the composition ranging from pure iron to 50%NiFe were prepared. Both the magnetic properties and the electrical resistivity were investigated. We found that γ-phase could be obtained in 20%NiFe film at room temperature after a proper thermal treatment and also found that the finite magnetization at γ-phase could be obtained in the composition ranging from 20%NiFe to 30%NiFe as well as in the case of the fine particles.
The temperature dependence of the saturation magnetization in those films showed a flatter variation than that obtained from the Brillouin function. It was concluded that this result mainly originated not from the gradient of the composition but from the interaction between the substrate and the film.

Measurements have been made of the magneto-resistivity and the temperature coefficient of the electrical resistivity in the Fe–Ni alloys containing 33∼42 at%Ni over the temperature range between 77 K and the Curie temperature. On the basis of the analysis inclusive of the forced volume magnetostriction, it becomes evident that the magneto-resistivity in the 42 at%Ni alloy is well explained in terms of the spin disorder scattering, while in the 33∼40 at%Ni the magnetovolume effect considerably contributes. This concentration dependence may be understood by assuming an additional contribution to the conduction electron scattering due to local spin disordered states in the alloys below 40 at%Ni as well as the normal spin disorder scattering. Furthermore, the spontaneous volume strain contribution is indicated to be required for understanding of the temperature coefficient of the resistivity.

Magnetic properties of Cr–Fe alloy are studied on the basis of the two band model. It is assumed that the localized moment of Fe has the role of the scattering center and the role which enhances the magnetostrictive effect; The scattering effects of the intra- and the interband processes with the Coulomb and the s-d interactions are investigated in detail. The magnetostrictive effect is enhanced by the process in which electrons flow from the localized moment to the conduction band with the volume change. The phenomenological consideration shows that the magnetostrictive effect is equivalent to the negative electron reservoir. The phase diagram, the wave number of the spin density wave and the jump in the thermal expansion at the Néel temperature are calculated in satisfactory agreement with experiments.

Spin splitting factors γ of electrons are determined from the measuremtents of quantum oscillations of velocity of sound. It is found that, near tire binary and the trigonal axes where electrons have heavy cyclotron masses, experimental γ deviates systematically from the theoretical γ predicted from the SBR-Baraff model. A new model to account for this discrepancy is proposed. It is based on the stronger effects of the remote bands to the conduction band energy than those considered by Baraff.

Using the results obtained in the previous paper, we calculate the temperature dependence of physical quantities, such as the spin susceptibility, the electrical conductivity, and the thermo-electric power, in the commensurate phase of a quasi-one-dimensional electron-phonon system with a non-half-filled tight-binding band. Since the Peierls transition was investigated within the mean-field theory in the previous paper, these quantities are estimated in the simplest approximation that takes into account the change of the one-body density of states due to the transition. As is expected, the features of temperature dependence are drastically different from those in the just half-filled case.

The annealing of vacancies in deformed aluminum was studied by electrical resistance measurements. The remarkable results are summarized as follows (i) decay rate of vacancies decreases with the increase of strain ε for the deformation, in spite of the high density of dislocations introduced by the deformation, (ii) the apparent activation energy which was determined by the change of slope method during the annealing becomes larger with the strain, (iii) the jump number of vacancy in deformed specimens has an almost constant value during the annealing for each specimen. These results are explained in terms of the efficiency of dislocation as a sink for vacancies, and it is concluded that the main contribution to the efficiency comes from the line tension of dislocations constrained geometrically.

LII, produced by the spin-orbit splitting of the levels of core holes. The sharpness of the spike decreases in the order of Na, K, Rb, and Cs. The threshold exponent α

Recent experimental results of Raman spectra in gallium a arsenide are analyzed on the basis of a non-local theory of the coupling between plasmons and longitudinal optical (LO) phonons. A formula is derived which gives the efficiency for the Raman scattering by a coupled LO phonon-plasmon (LO–PL) mode in an absorptive medium. The finiteness of the wave number of the scattering mode and the attenuation of light in the medium are explicitlv taken into account. An analysis of the GaAs Raman spectra obtained recently Murase
et at. shows that the theory reproduces the experimental results fairly well. It also explains the characteristic features of the spectra. The integrated efficiency from the LO–PL mode in GaAs is estimated to be of the order of 10

It is found that the quadrupole frequency departs from the linear dependence on temperature in the same temperature range of 0∼−55.4°C where the anomaly of linewidth is observed. On the basis of this fact, the temperature dependence of the quadrupole frequency near

A hot wire thermal diffusion column with a variable non-active volume has been constructed, The experimental results for the relaxation time as a function of the non-active volume are compared with the theoretical predictions. The good agreement obtained suggests that-our transient formulation can confidently be used to determine the experimental values of the column coefficients. The relaxation time measurements do not permit to distinguish between the active and non-active parts of a column, and the remixing coefficients
Kc and
Kd can be experimentallv obtained without an explicit knowledge of the non-active volumes in the column.

To investigate the defect structures of slightly reduced rutile (TiO
2) channeling experiments were performed on a slightly reduced specimen and a stoichiometric one with about 6 MeV protons accelerated by a cyclotron. In an angular scan of the backscattering yield of protons from Ti ions with respect to the [001] axial channel, a peak along the [001] direction was observed only in the reduced specimen. By the analysis of the angular scan it was confirmed that main defects in a slightly reduced rutile are Ti interstitial ions. They are located within about 0.4 Å of the [001] mid-channel axis. This result supports the interpretation of EPR experiments that a so-called
C-center is a Ti interstitial ton.

Resonant scattering of am intense beam of radiation by an arbitrary number of atoms contained in a volume whose dimensions are small as compared to the radiation wavelength is studied. It is seen that the scattered radiation is an equally spaced triplet whose middle frequency is equal to the incident frequency. Counting rates exact to all orders in incident intensity are obtained. Special cases of (i) atoms in ground state, (ii) atoms in excited state, (iii) assembly of atoms in super-radiant state, and (iv) assembly of atoms in thermal equlibrium are studied.

A new expression for semi-empirical non-Lorentzian line shape has been obtained. The absorptances in NH
3–H
2, HCl–CO
2 and NO–NO collisions are better represented by a line shape varying as |ν−ν
0|
−η with η=1.6 at frequencies greater than ∼1 cm
−1 from the line center. For CO
2 lines, however, the Lorentzian shape seems to be valid within a large frequency interval from the line center. A method for determining the strengths and widths of non-Lorentzian lines from the equivalent width data is discussed. This method has been applied to the rotational lines of CO.

The Laue equation for atom diffraction by crystal surfaces is generalized to include the effects of the atom-phonon interactions exactly. An intensity formula near resonance is derived on the basis of the generalized Laue equation. The diffraction amplitude
T is written as the sum of the amplitude
Tp due to the potential scattering and the amplitude
Tr due to the resonance scattering. The resonance width and the shift of the resonance energy are involved in the expression for
T. Provided that near resonance the variation of
Tr with the incident conditions are much more larger than that of
Tp, it is predicted from the intensity formula that the resonance minima and resonance maxima appear in the intensity curves for the specular and non-specular beams, respectively. The intensity formula is applied to the analysis of intensity profiles near resonance for the H+NaF(001)system.

The lattice parameter
aT of strontium nitrate has been measured in the temperature range 261 to 740 K using a high temperature X-ray djffractometer and a 10-cm diameter symmetrically focusing back-reflection camera.
aT is found to increase parabolicaiiy with temperature. The linear thermal expansion coefficient α is calculated by differentiation of
aT with respect to temperature. The α values and the available data on specific heat
Cp and elastic constants (C
11, C
12) are used in calculating the Grüneiscn parameter γ at different Temperatures. The temperature dependence of the lattice vibrational frequencies is found using the values of α and γ.

An expression is obtained for the one-phonon differential scattering cross section of neutrons in displacive ferroelectrics in the presence of external electric field by considering higher order anharmonic terms in the Hamiltonian using the approach of I. At any temperature well above the Curie temperature
Tc, the expression gives the field dependence as
K1+
K2E2,
K1 and
K2 being the temperature dependent anharmonic coefficients, while in the absence of external field the expression reduces to give the temperature dependence as
C1T+
C2T2, which is in agreement with the dependence derived in I. However in the vicinity of
Tc, it is the long wavelength Cochran modes which give the anomalous behaviour of the scattering cross section. Electric field dependence of the square of the soft mode frequency is also discussed. It is seen that it increases with the applied field, which is in agreement with the experimental results of Worlock and Fleury.

The equilibrium charge distributions resulting from 2.0-MeV nitrogen ions passing through an N
2 gaseous target are presented. The modified slope method is developed for determining charge-changing cross sections from the data of non-equilibrium charge fractions at low pressures. By changing the initial charge state of the projectile ions, some of the cross sections of single and double electron capture and loss were determined. The measured cross sections of single electron capture are in good agreement with the theoretical calculations of Bohr-Lindhard and also with the semiempircal values of Nikolaev
et al. The measured cross sections of single electron loss are quite different from the theoretical calculations.

The π-electronic structures of bacteriochlorophyll and bacteriopheophytin with neutral, monocationic and monoanionic forms are investigated. The π-radical doublet states are calculated by CI method, using the electronic configurations constructed from the SCF–PPP orbitals calculated for neutral molecule. The calculated excitation energies and the oscillator strengths are found to be in a fairly good agreement with experiments. Comparing our theoretical results with the experiments on the reaction center of photosynthetic bacterium, we conclude that π-cation radical of bacteriochlorophyll (not bacteriopheophytin) is formed at the initial stage of the light reaction of photosynthesis.

The circular dichroism spectra in rhodopsin and bathorhodopsin are theoretically analysed in terms of intrinsic optical activity of the retinal chromophore according to a torsion model proposed in paper I. The self-consistent HMO method is used to treat the π-electron system of the chromophore. From the analysis of the α- and β-bands of optical absorption and circular dichroism spectra, the plausible conformation of the chromophore is predicted as follows. In rho-dopsin, 6s-
cis, 11-
cis protonated retinal Schiff-base 12s-
trans form and the bonds 6C–7C, 11C–12C and 12C–13C are twisted in −, + and − directions, respectively, when torsional angles θ’s are measured clockwise from planar
cis conformation. Although we cannot determine the values of θ’s definitely, the ranges of them are θ
6−7=−40°∼−120°, θ
11−12=30°∼40° and θ
12−13=−130°∼−150°. In bathorhodopsin, the bond 11C–12C is isomerized to a
trans form by the rotation of about 100°∼120° around it in the plus direction.

Nonlinear evolution of the electron-beam instability is examined experimentally in a plasma unstable for ion-acoustic wave excitation. Amplitude modulation of the electron wave is observed, with the threshold for the energy density practically equal to zero. When the beam density is more than a few percents of the plasma density, the electron wave energy grows up to several percents of the thermal energy. The peaks in the amplitude are found to correspond, for the wave, to the trapping in the density depressions executing ion-acoustic oscillation. A striking feature of the present experiment is a coupled relaxation oscillation between the electron wave and the ton-acoustic wave.

Nonlinear evolution equation for the collisional drift wave is obtained in a stab model based on the two fluid equations where the ton inertia, finite gyroradius and viscosity are included. A systematic expansion is introduced by taking ε=|κ|
l as a smallness parameter where κ is the degree of density gradient and
l is the linear scale of the stab along the density gradient. A set of the model equations is proposed to describe the evolution of the nonlinear drift wave.

Numerical analysis has been made of the time evolution in density profiles of the impurities in a Tokamak. The diffusion and atomic processes of impurities are treated simultaneously. Two different numerical methods were used; the results are in good agreement between the two. Calculations are made in the case of a constant spatial distribution of the plasma. The impurity concentration in the plasma is revealed. The procedure may be useful for analysis of the time evolution of a Tokamak plasma in computer simulation and for the analysis of the impurities by optical measurement

For evolution equation φ
xt=
h(φ), a canonical transformation which keeps the Hamiltonian form invariant is investigated. It is shown that the canonical transformation of this type exists, if
h(φ) is linear or
hφφ(φ)=μ
2h(φ), where μ is a constant, and that a restricted Bäcklund transformation proposed by McLaughlin and Scott is a canonical transformation. For such nonlinearities, for example the sine-Gordon type
h(φ)=sinμφ, the canonical transformations are explicitly constructed and are used to display nonlinear interactions. A relationship between the condition
hφφ(φ)=μ
2h(φ) and the existence of an infinite number of conservation laws are discussed from the view point of the theory of the canonical transformation. These results will be clarify the dynamical significance of the Bäcklund transformation and the soliton phenomena.

By means of modal energy sharing, the recurrence phenomena of the solution of the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation are examined. The modal energy distribution depending on the time is calculated for the case of the solution with a sinusoidal initial state. It is found by the energy distribution that the solution does not recur exactly but recurs very near to its initial state. Further, some numerical experiments for the sinusoidal initial state with a second higher harmonic are done. Though extremely complicated distribution is obtained, in some cases, the energy recurs nearer to its initial modes than that regarded as rough periodic state in a short time. It is found that the energy sharing analysis is a good tool to examine the recurrence of the KdV solution.
