    The size spectrum caused by a power primary energy spectrum is studied by an analytical method utilizing the Mellin transformation. When the average size is a power function of primary energy E and the shape of the size fluctuation is independent of E, the spectrum becomes a power spectrum irrespective of the functional form of the fluctuation, and is practically determined by moments of the fluctuation up to second order. Results are applied to problems related to the size-energy conversion, the change in the slope of the size spectrum, and heavy primaries. A modification of the method so as to take into account the change in the coefficient of variation of the fluctuation with E is also presented together with a numerical example.

    The level structure of 124Te has been investigated by studying gamma rays emitted following the beta decay of 124Sb to the excited states of 124Te. The intensities of 70 gamma rays observed in this decay have been measured with a better precision than known earlier. The existence of the gamma rays with energies of 1248.62 and 1731.4 keV has been confirmed, whereas the 159.4, 185.4, 385.9, 476.6, 498.4, 553.8, 997.0, 1163.2, 1388.7, 1505.6, 1557, 1950.4, 2151.5 and 2274.0 keV gamma transitions reported earlier have not been observed in the present investigations.
    The gamma-gamma angular correlation measurements for nine cascades populated in this decay have been done out of which 791–(646)–603 keV cascade has been attempted for the first time. From these measurements, the multipole admixtures in the 714, 723, 791, 968, 1045, 1368, 1691 and 2091 keV transitions have been obtained. These angular correlation studies have enabled us to assign 2+ and 3 characters to the levels at 2039.5 and 2694.0 keV respectively.

    The level scheme of 189Os has been studied from β decay of 189Re. Gamma-ray spectra, conversion electron spectra, and β-γ and γ-γ coincidence spectra were obtained by using high resolution detectors. A total of 66 γ transitions observed were assigned to 17 excited states of 189Os. Most level properties are explained by the Nilsson model. Some low-lying 5/2 and 7/2 levels are discussed in terms of the triaxial rotor-plus-particle model.

    Real space renormalization group approach is extented to the case of site dilution problem. The critical index ν and a decrease in the critical temperature are calculated as a function of impurity concentration. The result agrees well with recent experiments. An apparent divergence of ν at the critical concentration also indicates an instability of the two-dimensional long range ordered phase.

    We study a quantal percolation process in a square lattice gas in the super-critical regions by making use of a computer simulation. Critical quantal percolation density is determined by a criterion of electron localization. Our result suggests that the critical quantal percolation density is very close to the critical density for the classical percolation at all temperatures above the critical temperature. We also discuss the temperature dependence of the one-electron density of states of the lattice gas.

    When an electromagnetic wave is propagated through a metal in a static magnetic field, a dc electric field is induced in the metal. We consider the mechanical effect on this Photo-magneto-electric [PME] effect in semimetals by using the density matrix method. It is shown that the momentum transfer from electrons to scatterers makes an important role on PME. In some cases, the total momentum given to the scatterers by the electrons is larger than the one given to the electrons by the electromagnetic wave. The results qualitatively explain the essential features of the experiments, including the sign of the electric field which can not be explained by the previous theories.

    An analytic expression is derived for the current-voltage characteristic of superconducting foils with dilute pins. For a randomly pinned superconductor, the dynamic critical current estimated in the flux flow state is of a comparable order as the static critical current, which has a close connection with the threshold criterion proposed by Labusch. The current vs voltage curve has a slightly concave tail and shows a sensitive dependence on the detailed shape of the pinning potential.

    The current-voltage characteristics in superconducting foils are calculated for the case that the interaction between small pinning centres and fluxoids with the Abrikosov structure may be expressed by a sawtoothed pinning force varying with the period of the lattice spacing. The I-V curves have nonlinear characteristics due to the nonlinear motion of fluxoids around pinning centres. This effect is shown to be enhanced as the strength of the elementary pinning force is reduced.

    The temperature dependences of the upper critical fields, Hc2⁄⁄,⊥, and the lower critical field, Hc1⁄⁄, have been measured on the single crystal of the layer structure TaS2 intercalated with pyridine. Some basic parameters concerned with the superconducting properties have been determined using the anisotropic Ginzburg-Landau theory. The value of the specific heat jump at Tc calculated from the experimental data shows a fairly good agreement to the previous results of the specific heat measurements. This fact seems to indicate the applicability of the anisotropic G–L theory to TaS2(Py)1⁄2.

    The longitudinal sound velocity in hcp 4He single crystals grown at 35.5 atm has been measured between 0.25 and 1.7 K at 10, 30, and 50 MHz. Above about 1 K, the change in the velocity is proportional to T4 and independent of the frequency. Below 1 K the velocity change varies from crystal to crystal, depends on the frequency, and shows an annealing effect. These anomalous behaviors are caused by the interaction between the sound and the vibration of dislocations. The dislocation density Λ, the average pinning length L, and the damping constant B are obtained using the Granato-Lücke theory. Typical values are Λ=106 cm−2, L=5·10−4 cm, and B=3·10−7·T3 cgs when an exponential distribution for the pinning lengths is assumed. The choice of other distributions is discussed as well. Also discussed is the sound attenuation due to the dislocation vibration.

    Magnetization and susceptibility measurements were made on a new spinel system Ni(Rh1−xCrx)2S4(0.15≤x≤0.40). The resistivity measurement was made on the several samples. The resistivity shows metallic conduction and a marked change at the Curie temperature. The samples show ferromagnetism at low temperatures. The paramagnetic susceptibility obeys χ=χ0+CM⁄(T−θP), where χ0 is a temperature-independent paramagnetic susceptibility. Paramagnetic Curie temperature θP is positive in this system. The Curie constant per gramatom chromium CM⁄2x remains approximately constant for the compositions tested. It is pointed out that the properties of the system are similar to those of a system Cu(Rh1−xCrx)2Se4.

    Magnetic and electrical properties of concentrated Cr1−xMnx alloy (0≤x≤0.6) with the bcc structure were investigated. The magnetic property shows a band antiferromagnetism (0<x≤0.10) and an additive localized paramagnetism (x>0.1). An analysis of the electrical resistivity gives a truncation factor of the Fermi surface as a function of x. By these results, the localized state of spins of Mn atoms and the concentration dependence of antiferromagnetic energy gap are elucidated. Weak ferromagnetism appears in the range of 0<x<0.17 with the Curie point of 45 K and the maximum moment of 0.0029 μB per atom, and occurrence conditions of the weak ferromagnetism are shown.

    Ferromagnetic compounds Mn1+δSb with NiAs crystal structure have a wide existing range (0≤δ≤0.22). Compounds of Mn1.05MδSb (M=Cr, Fe and Co) are prepared in order to study the electronic state of excess Mn in Mn1+δSb. It is found that the excess cations occupy the same interstitial site as Mn, and have 0 μB for the case of M=Cr and Mn and about 1 μB for M=Fe and Co, and that they reduce the total magnetization and the Curie temperature at about the same rate as the case of M=Mn. A qualitative discussion is given on the analogy of transition atom impurities in metals.

    The electronic state of CuCr2Se4 is investigated by means of the polarized neutron diffraction technique. From the measured form factors of copper and chromium atoms, the magnetic moments are determined to be −0.07±0.02 (μB/Cu) and 2.64±0.04 (μB/Cr), respectively. Further, the uniform polarization existent throughout the crystal is estimated to be −0.20±0.11 μB per formula unit, using the total moment 5.01±0.01 (μB/CuCr2Se4) obtained from the magnetization measurement. This result which differs from those reported by other authors with neutron diffraction, shows that neither of the ionic configuration models of Cu+[Cr3+Cr4+]Se4 and Cu2+[Cr23+]Se4 gives a satisfactory explanation of CuCr2Se4, although the former is closer to the experimental data. The form factor of the chromium atom agrees well with the calculated free ion form factor for Cr+, but not for Cr3+, and this fact indicates that the unpaired electron density on the chromium atom is more spread than that for free Cr3+. It is found that 84±16% of the unpaired 3d electrons occupy t2g orbitals.

    We have studied the critical behavior of the two-dimensional site-random antiferromagnet Rb2CocMg1−cF4 using neutron elastic and quasi-elastic scattering techniques. The variation with temperature of the intensity of the magnetic Bragg reflections shows a considerable rounding of the transition. Assuming a Gaussian distribution of transition temperature, we have determined the average Néel temperature ⟨TN⟩ and the degree of distribution of Néel temperature σ, and the critical exponent β in a series of compounds with c=1.0, 0.98, 0.97, 0.95, 0.89 and 0.82. The experimental data have been analysed to give the inverse correlation length and the susceptibility in the compounds with c=1.0, 0.97 and 0.89 using the determined values of ⟨TN⟩ and σ. The resulting values of the critical exponents β, ν, γ and η are found to coincide with the exact theoretical values for the two-dimensional Ising model within the experimental errors, and are independent of the concentration of nonmagnetic impurities.

    The longitudinal ultrasonic attenuation due to spin fluctuations in anisotropic itinerant electron ferromagnets is investigated by using the self-consistent renormalization theory of spin fluctuations by Moriya and Kawabata. The anomalous attenuation at the phase boundary and the broad peak above the Curie temperature are derived, and the temperature and magnetic field dependences of the attenuation coefficient are discussed. The numerical calculations were performed using an electron gas model.

    The equilibrium atomic distributions in the off-stoichiometric Cu–Au alloys whose high and low temperature phases are of the long period superlattice (LPS) and the Ll0 (CuAu) structures respectively are investigated on the basis of the mean field theory. The obtained results are as follows. LPS with uniformly distributed excess atoms are generally unstable against the modulation of the concentration of excess atoms along the direction perpendicular to antiphase boundaries. The period of the concentration modulation (CM) is a half of that of LPS and its phase shows that excess atoms enter into sites at antiphase boundaries preferentially. CM produced by LPS increases the stability of LPS and sometimes LPS becomes stable only by accompanying CM.

    Angular correlation measurements of annihilation photons have been made on single crystals of the Cd–Mg alloys over all compositions. It is found that the Fermi surfaces of the alloys in the Cd-rich region distort considerably from a free-electron sphere; the 3rd band “stars” and the 4th band horizontal “cigars” around the points L do not exist in Cd, and appear at 10 at% Mg accompanying an appreciable decrease of the energy gap at L. It is proposed that changes in the 4d core states cause the sudden decrease of the energy gap.

    Electronic structure calculations have been carried out for small clusters of iron series transition metals containing an interstitial hydrogen atom by the discrete variational Xα method. The hydrogen-metal bonding level is formed below the bottom of the d band. The electron transfer from metal to hydrogen occurs, though the additional electron by hydrogenation occupies the 3d hole to raise the Fermi level. The covalent bonding between H 1s and metal 3d is rather strong in all cases. Change in metal-metal bond by interstitial hydrogen is also significant in the bonding mechanism.

    The Monte Carlo method for correcting the effect of multiple scattering in Compton profile measurements has been extended to take account of the geometry of collimators. This procedure is applied to experimental Compton profiles of aluminum measured with 59.54 keV γ-rays for various sample thickness. It is found that the corrected Compton profiles are independent of the sample thickness within experimental errors. Three theoretical Compton profiles for aluminum are compared with the experimental one.

    The temperature dependence of the Hall coefficient and transeverse magnetoconductivity of n-InSb containing 2–5×1014 cm−3 donors has been systematically investigated in the magnetic freeze-out regime. Anomalous behavior in the low temperature conduction band transport separated from the impurity conduction is presented. Evidence is observed for the existence of mobility edge in the conduction band tail states. At high temperatures transport is predominated there by trap-limited mobility, while at lower temperatures by hopping between localized states. Hall mobility at the mobility edge well agrees with Friedman’s theory.
    As for dependence of the impurity conduction on the temperature, magnetic field and donor concentration, a good agreement has been obtained between our experimental result and a recent theoretical prediction on the hopping conduction.

    Optical absorptions due to the phonon-forbidden indirect X6+×R6 exciton in TlCl and TlBr have been studied near the fundamental absorption edge by using a wavelength-moduration technique to resolve their fine structures. The experimental spectral band shape of wavelength-derivative absorptions is well described by a theoretical curve expected for a forbidden indirect exciton transition. It is found that four kinds of momentum conserving phonons at the M-point are associated with this transition, and their energies are in good agreement with the values obtained by the neutron scattering studies. The binding energy of the X6+×R6 exciton is determined as 23±3 meV in TlCl and 19±1 meV in TlBr. Phonon modes which are associated with edge emissions observed in these substances are assigned.

    ESR spectra of Fe3+ ions doped in KDP and DKDP crystals were studied. The D tensor for Fe3+ ion in KDP crystal was distinctly different from that in DKDP in the temperature dependence, especially when the magnetic field was parallel to the c-axis. The origin of the difference was investigated by considering the dynamical contribution from the ferroelectric soft mode.
    The analysis showed that the difference was mainly caused by the change of the coefficient of the temperature dependent term in the dispersion relation of the soft mode. The comparison with the theoretical model proposed by Kobayashi suggests that the tunneling frequency of deuteron in DKDP (90∼95% deuterated) is a third of, or a little more smaller than that for KDP.

    In general, when one set of unmodulated transition parameters is given, then corresponding to it, not only one but some nonequivalent sets of modulated transition parameters are possible, and hence so many different patterns of incommensurate modulation of the crystal are possible. Concerning a substance like ARS as an example, another pattern than that in the previous paper [JPSJ 44 (1978) 1248] is presented. The two patterns give different consequences. (It is assumed for simplicity that incommensurate modulation may occur only along the x axis.) In the present case, the gap index is found to be 2. The number of possible incommensurate phases is 3. These phases, despite being incommensurate along the x axis, are all ferroelectric with their Ps along the y axis, the z axis and a general direction, respectively.

    Phase transitions in KCaCl3 and RbCaCl3 were investigated by means of optical and dilatometric measurements. It was suggested from these investigations that on heating from room temperature both crystals transform from the orthorhombic phase to the tetragonal phase and then to the cubic phase. This transition sequence is in contrast with the one observed in other perovskite trichlorides such as CsPbCl3, CsSrCl3 and RbCdCl3 which have two different orthorhombic phases.

    An EPR investigation of Cr3+ center associated nearest-neighbor Cd2+ vacancy in RbCdF3 has been carried out in the temperature range from 300 to 77 K. The field-direction dependence of the spectrum in the (001) plane at 77 K evidently shows the alternate rotations of the fluorine octahedra around the tetragonal c-axis. This behavior should originate from the distortion of nearest-neighbor fluorine ion caused by Cd2+ vacancy. The results indicate that this center is a sensitive probe to detect the rotations of octahedra caused by the phase transition for multidomain sample and is capable of determining the crystal structure in the low symmetry phase conclusively.

Vanadium does not appear to enter the lattice at substitutional sites. The spin-Hamiltonian parameters have been evaluated for the two sites. The principal values of g and A and the direction cosines in which the principal axes lie along the crystallographic axes are found for the predominant vanadyl complex. The ESR results in conjunction with the optical data were used to evaluate the molecular orbital coefficients.

    The coercive field and spontaneous polarization have been measured as a function of temperature (−10°C to 22°C) for different thicknesses (about 2 mm to 0.5 mm) of triglycine selenate crystals. The thickness dependent dielectric constant has also been measured at frequencies 1 kHz, 10 kHz and 100 kHz. The coercive field is found to be inversely proportional to the thickness of the sample. The spontaneous polarization has been found to decrease with decreasing thickness and the effect is most pronounced at smaller thicknesses. The results can be explained by assuming a single homogeneous surface layer of low dielectric constant. However, the numerical values of surface layer thickness estimated from the coercive field measurements are two order of magnitude higher than those derived from thickness dependent dielectric constant measurements.

    The electrical resistivity of Cr–Fe alloys containing up to 2.6 at.% Fe is measured in detail over the temperature range 0.5 K–340 K. The resistivity of the alloys containing less than 0.6 at.% Fe shows a constant value below about 1.8 K, decreases with increasing temperature in proportion to T2 and exhibits a minimum. The temperature of the minimum depends on c1⁄3, where c is the concentration of Fe. The resistivity of more concentrated alloys exhibits a minimum and a maximum. The magnetic susceptibility of the alloy containing 1.5 at.% Fe shows a sharp peak just below the temperature where the resistivity maximum takes place. These results suggest that the resistivity minimum in antiferromagnetic Cr–Fe alloys is due to the Kondo effect caused by localized magnetic moments on Fe atoms. The Kondo temperature TK of the alloy containing 0.6 at.% Fe is estimated at about 140 K.

    A method for solving the problem of combined spin-orbit and Jahn-Teller coupling is introduced in the case of an electronic triplet state coupled to a vibration of e mode in cubic symmetry. In this approach a simple recursion relation systematically provides basis functions which are very useful in reducing the size of the Hamiltonian matrix to be diagonalized numerically. As an example of application, the level splitting and optical intensity of the zero-phonon line have been calculated for 4A24T2 transition of V2+ ion in KMgF3, and good agreement with experiment has been found.

    The purpose of this paper is to develop a theory of saturation effects of the two-level system in two rotating rf fields with different frequencies and arbitrary intensities. We analyze this problem with the density matrix equation of motion including the relaxation processes, and the solution is obtained in the form of continued fraction. We give numerical calculations of the positions and shapes of the single and multiple quantum resonances, caused by large intensity rf fields using this continued fraction solution. It is also shown that the irradiation of an atomic system with a saturating field quasiresonant to a given transition drastically changes the absorption line shape of a probe field.

    An ab initio calculation of the cross-sections of dissociative recombination (DR) in H2+, HD+ and D2+ has been made using the projection operator technique. A single-configuration molecular orbital wavefunction has been used for the molecular resonance state, although the applicability of such a simple wavefunction has not been fully tested. The decay width has been calculated in the “local” approximation. Comparison with experiment shows that for H2+ the calculated results can fully account for the total DR cross-section in the low and intermediate energy regions, and that the local approximation is sufficiently accurate to account for the undulatory structure in the energy dependence of the DR cross-section. A similar structure is also obtained for D2+, although here the agreement with experiment is less marked. For HD+ no particular heteronuclearity effect is observed.

    The cross sections for the charge transfer processes p+H(ns)→H(ns, np)+p are calculated through the Born approximation formulated in paper I of this series. The cross sections show oscillatory structures at low energies which result from the nodes of the atomic wave functions in the momentum space. The oscillations of the full Born cross sections are more remarkable than those of the Brinkman-Kramers cross sections. The momentum transfer effect of the electron becomes more important down to lower energies as n increases. A new interpretation of this effect is given which is based on the momentum distribution of the atomic electron.

    For 1–5 keV beams of C+, O+ and S+ ions passing through vapors of alkalies Cs, K and Na, the total cross sections σ10 and σ0−1 for the reactions of types A++M→A+M+ and A+M→A+M+ (M: alkali atom) have been determined by growth-curve method. The cross sections σ10 and σ0−1 obtained are of the order of 10−15 and 10−16 cm2 with the largest values of 1×10−14 and 2×10−15 cm2, respectively, and are about one order of magnitude as large as those for ordinary gas targets. These cross section curves do not exhibit normal behavior predicted from values of energy defect ΔE at infinite nuclear separation probably due to the interactions among some molecular states concerned. In particular, all the σ10 curves have an oscillatory structure arising from quantum-mechanical interference between elastic and inelastic channels or between two inelastic channels.

    The optical absorptions of all-trans and 15-cis β-carotene with non-planar configuration are calculated by means of our previous LCAO–ASMO–SCF–CI formulation for π-electrons, taking account of the screening of two-center Coulomb repulsion integrals for all the pairs of atoms except bonded ones.
    It is thus shown that the cis-peak of 15-cis β-carotene is caused both by the loss of center of symmetry in the cis configuration and by the twisting around C14–C15 and C15′–C14′ single bonds. It is also shown for 15-cis β-carotene that the angle between transition moments of the first peak and the cis-peak is 90° or not so much different from 90°.

    Atomic spectrum of light emitted by the three-level system of Baranger and Mozer, in an unmagnetized, singly-ionized, homogeneous and stationary turbulent plasma, is calculated on the basis of the Bourret approximation. One-dimensional envelope-soliton-gas is adopted as a model for the fluctuation of the complex amplitude E0(t) of the oscillating local electric field, which is due to Langmuir waves coupled nonlinearly with ion acoustic waves. Characteristic quantities of this model are the average inverse of the soliton width ⟨B⟩ and the soliton density \barn. It is also shown that the variance of E0(t) is proportional to \barn·⟨B⟩, and the correlation time of E0(t) behaves like ⟨B−2 when ⟨B⟩→∞, on the other hand, like ⟨B−1 when ⟨B⟩→0.

    The Kratky-Porod wormlike chain is extended to a stiff chain model with three characteristic lengths by taking the continuous limit of a chain composed of hindered-rotating bonds with fluctuating bond angles. The limiting results are classified into four cases depending upon whether these three characteristic lengths possess their imaginary parts and whether they are degenerated or not.
    The persistence vector and chain dimension of this continuous limit model indicate that the model is statistically equivalent to a superposition of three Kratky-Porod chains with different persistence lengths and chain directions, when the three lengths are all real and different. When two of the lengths are conjugate complex, the model shows the rotation of the direction of a component Kratky-Porod chain owing to the twisting freedom of the model, and when the lengths are degenerated, interaction effects of component Kratky-Porod chains appear.

    The propagation of a lower hybrid wave in an inhomogeneous plasma is investigated numerically. By solving the system of two-fluid equations and the Poisson equation in the two-dimensional geometry, ray trajectories of a lower hybrid wave are traced. The cases of cold plasma approximation, linear approximation and nonlinear two-fluid model are examined for the periodic external wave source of infinite length. In the nonlinear calculation in a warm plasma, any noticeable nonlinear phenomenon such as self-modulation of hybrid cones is not observed. The effect of density fluctuation due to a drift wave on the conical ray trajectories is also studied.

    Electron Bernstein waves were found to propagate over a wide (ray) range of directions with respect to a localized launcher, although the wave propagation is directed nearly perpendicular to the magnetic field. The observed wave fronts of the electron Bernstein waves were in accord with the theoretical wave fronts in which the effect of the magnetic field of the earth was included. The theoretical ray velocity surfaces of the electron Bernstein waves were confirmed experimentally and theoretically.

    The magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations for the interaction of a shock-heated plasma flow with a nozzle-shaped magnetic field are solved numerically with the two-step Lax-Wendroff method using the time-splitting technique. The results are compared with the experimental data obtained with an arc-driven shock tube. The measured output voltage of pickup coils and the measured luminosity profiles in the shock front agree well to calculations.

    This paper studies turbulent flow in a channel. From a general formula for Reynolds stress given in paper I, mean velocity profiles are examined in the equilibrium layer near the wall and in the central region, respectively. Results obtained are that (1) in the equilibrium layer with constant Reynolds stress, the logarithmic velocity profile is derived and (2) in the central region with constant energy dissipation, the flattened parabolic profile is found, with its flattening determined by the Reynolds number of turbulence.

    An exact Gaussian solution for two-dimensional incompressible inviscid turbulence is obtained by using the Wiener-Hermite expansion with the time-dependent ideal random function. The one-time characteristic functional corresponding to this solution is found to agree with the one obtained by Cook and Taylor, but the present method gives more information about the time dependence of the ideal random function, which is useful for dealing with the many-time correlation and extending to the viscous turbulence.

    The steady flow of a viscous fluid in a channel with a branch is studied as a two-dimensional model of a blood flow in an artery with a branch. In order to clarify the phenomena connected with bifurcation, the steady flow of a viscous fluid through a channel with a branch was numerically investigated for various parameters (the width of branched flow, the angle of bifurcation, the Reynolds number, the ratio of flow quantities downstream of bifurcation).

    The shock reflection process in an ionizing krypton on the end wall of a shock tube has been investigated using a Mach-Zehnder interferometer technique at incident shock Mach numbers Ms∼12.7 with initial pressure P1=1.0 Torr and equilibrium elecrton number densities neE∼1017 cm−3. Numerical calculations on the same process have also been made by the use of the two-step Lax-Wendroff scheme taking into account of the side wall boundary layer effect behind the incident shock. The calculated results of the interference light intensity in the ionization relaxation region gave fairly good agreement with the experimental ones by use of the value of 1.2×10−19 cm2/eV, which was obtained by Glass et al. at neE∼1017 cm−3, for the slope constant of excitation cross section against relative kinetic energy for krypton atom-atom collisions.

    Deuteron D-state effects are studied in the exact finite-range calculations for the 58Ni(p, d)57Ni reaction at Ep=52 MeV. The D-state effects on differential cross sections are still rather small at 52 MeV, and the observed angular distributions cannot be reproduced in a consistent manner although the quality of fits are slightly improved.

    The experimental ratio Δ*) of critical sound dispersion to attenuation has compared with the mode coupling theory using available data on four different critical fluid systems; n-heptane-nitrobenzene, triethylamine-water, Xenon and Helium three. It was demonstrated that the universal plot for the experimental Δ*) could fairly be described by the mode coupling theory assuming the empirical form for correlation function obtained by Tartaglia and Thoen on the basis of Fisher-Langer theory.

    Specific heat of (Ti0.99V0.01)2O3 single crystal was measured in the temperature range from 0.3 to 4.5 K. An anomaly in the specific heat was not found clearly at the spin glass ordering temperature Tg(0.45 K), but the rate of entropy change showed a peak at the Tg. From this behavior, the spin glass freezing in (Ti0.99V0.01)2O3 appears to be a higher order phase transition.
