Excitation functions of γ-rays from the
79Br(p, n)
79Kr reaction were measured with 2.82- to 3.50-MeV protons, and neutron-γ and γ-γ coincidence spectra were recorded at 5.00 MeV. Angular distributions of some γ rays were also measured with 3.50-MeV protons to determine spins and parities. A level scheme of
79Kr was proposed from detailed analyses of the data. In particular, a previously unknown 5⁄2
+ level was identified at 290 keV, and the presence of a 9⁄2
+ level at 149 keV was confirmed.

Halflives of a 12.34-keV level in
133mBa and two levels in
120Sn were measured by means of a delayed coincidence system which was accurately calibrated by use of a standard pulse generator:
18.0±0.4 n sec for the 12.34-keV level in
133Ba,
11.96±0.09 μ sec for the 2482.0-keV level in
120Sn,
5.55±0.03 n sec for the 2284.6-keV level in
120Sn.
The total internal conversion coefficient for the 12.34-keV transition was obtained to be 65±3, which is in agreement with a theoretical value of 71 but conflicts with a previously reported value of 110. The γ-ray transition was found to be retarded by a factor of 93±4 in Moszkowski units.

The elastic constants of the hard sphere crystal near the melting point are investigated. The assumption in Born’s theory that the elastic constant of shear should vanish at the melting point is examined. In place of his theory which cannot be applied to the hard sphere crystal straightforwardly, the effective potential method developed in a previous paper by one of the present authors (K.H.) is employed. The important effect of atomic ordering in long range in the crystal is taken into account. As an effect of fluctuation in this order parameter, certain elastic constants in particular the bulk modulus diverge to minus infinity at a threshold of the specific volume. In spite of difficulty that the Fourier components of the second derivative of interaction potential is indefinite, the velocities of the lattice wave in the limit of long wave length can be obtained.

Fe–Ni alloy films with a composition of Invar region were prepared on copper substrates by electrodeposition. The crystal structures and magnetic properties of the films were investigated. The region which formed α phase in the films was different from that shown in the equilibrium phase diagram for bulk samples of Fe–Ni system, that is, the region shifts toward the nickel richer composition. The drop region the magnetization in the electrodeposited film shows a tendency to shift to the nickel richer composition (45 at.%Ni–Fe) corresponding with the shift of the α phase at the film deposition. The magnetic moment at low temperatures in the electrodeposited film decreases more rapidly with the increase of temperature as compared with the result observed in the bulk crystal.

This interpretation explains consistently the enhancement of the electrical resistivity in the antiferromagnetic state.

The microscopic magnetic properties of vanadium “monoxide” VO
1.25 have been investigated by
51V NMR at temperatures from 1.2 K to 300 K. Two kinds of resonance corresponding to different electronic states were observed. One comes from the nearly nonmagnetic majority sites and it is concluded from the temperature dependences of both the nuclear relaxation rate and the with of the spin-echo spectrum that VO
1.25 orders magnetically below 5 K. At 1.2 K in the ordered state, the other kind of resonance was observed around 200 MHz under zero external field, so the magnetic ordering is ascribed to these small numbers of V
3+-like sites. Curie-Weiss type temperature dependence of the susceptibility in the paramagnetic state can also be accounted for by presuming that about 8% of V ions are V
3+, with a localized moment of 2 μ
B. The crystallographical origin of the V

These spectra were analyzed to yield hyperfine field distribution curves which are characterized by two distinct peaks. It has been revealed that an isolated Fe atom has a very small hyperfine field indicating a nonmagnetic character. The profiles of the hyperfine field distribution curves as well as the magnetic properties of the alloys, particularly near the critical concentration for ferromagnetism, are discussed on the basis of the local environment model.

Mean-field study of the Peierls instability is made at zero temperature with the electron occupation number varied over a wide range between half-occupancy and nearly zero-occupancy. Total energy of the system, order parameters and the lattice displacement pattern are calculated by taking account of all the accompanying harmonics. The lowering of the total energy per atom is shown to be very large in the neighborhood of the half- and 1/15-occupancies. The amplitudes of harmonics increase drastically as the electron number approaches the zero-occupancy. The spin-Peierls transition is also studied with an XY model. Although the effect of magnetic field on the spin-Peierls system has a close similarity to that of the electron number variation on the Peierls system, an important difference between them is pointed out on the pinning of a dimerized state.

2+ ion helix was found from nuclear reflections to be predominantly right-handed. The magnetic reflection data could be interpreted satisfactorily by considering a triangular spin structure of helically modulated ferromagnetic chains: The magnetic moments lie in the c-plane and rotate by 5.1±0.1° along the chain or the c-axis, while the moments rotate by 120° in the c-plane. The magnitude of the magnetic moment is 0.58±0.01 μ

Resistivities and Hall coefficients of unstressed and uniaxially saturation-stressed samples of heavily antimony-doped germanium in the metallic concentration range are investigated by the degenerate electron gas model with impurity scattering. The effect of anisotropic effective mass is investigated, firstly by the variational method, and secondly by solving the Boltzmann equation directly in a numerical method. The anisotropy of screened impurity potential is fully taken into account within the linear screening theory. The effect of finite electron life time is studied by a simplified coherent potential approximation. By these effects, in addition to the effect of the nonlinear screening and many-body interaction investigated in the authors’ previous paper, the agreement with experiments on the unstressed samples is much improved and a good agreement is obtained on the saturation-stressed samples.

Statistical Green’s function theory has been successfully applied to study the ferroelectric phase transitions in the Rochelle Salt and its deuterated form with two sub-lattice pseudo-spin model containing spin-phonon interaction terms. The Blinc-de Gennes model parameters have been calculated for both of the salts. A phenomenological explanation of the isotope and the impurity dependence of the transition temperatures has also been sought from our calculations. The origin of non-logarithmic behaviour of the heat capacity has been attributed to the strong proton-phonon and anharmonic interactions. Finally, renormalized phonon frequency and the temperature dependence of the soft mode frequency have been studied theoretically. The present study suggests that phase transitions for the Rochelle Salt and its deuterated variety can be understood by a displacive mechanism.

Electrical conductivity is calculated in the Hubbard model for a disordered chain. The intra-site Coulomb repulsion is assumed to be sufficiently strong, and the electron-transfer term is treated as a perturbation. The interaction between electrons and intra-site vibrations is taken into account by two types of coupling terms. The effects of this interaction on the conductivity are discussed.

The Hall conductivity, σ
xy, is evaluated in two-dimensional random systems to the leading order of singular behavior at low frequency, ω. At weak magnetic field the result is σ
xy=σ
xy0 [1−1⁄πε
Fτ ln 1⁄ωτ] where σ
xy0, ε
F and τ are ordinary Hall conductivity, the Fermi energy, and the relaxation time due to impurity scattering, respectively. This result together with that for σ
xx indicates that the effective carrier number deduced from the Hall coefficient does not contain leading singular terms and that only the relaxation time is logarithmically reduced.

Intervalley impurity scattering is shown to reduce the prefactor of the logarithmic term of conductivity in two-dimensional random systems. The effective carrier number deduced from the Hall coefficient, however, does not contain logarithmic term as in a single valley system.

Transition of a radiation field is theoretically studied in a radiation layer. A steady one-dimensional problem of radiative heat transfer is considered through a gray absorbing, emitting and scattering medium in a semi-infinite space bounded by a plate, which is gray and semitransparent. Through the plate, a beam is imposed perpendicularly in addition to the isotropic emission from the plate. The heat flux in a deep region is maintained to a constant value. The scattering model is the Rayleigh model. The radiation intensity is obtained as a function of position and direction. The results show the transition of the radiation field from a strongly anisotropic field in the neighbourhood of the boundary to the field in a deep region where a weak anisotropic field is caused by the constant heat flux. The effect of the anisotropic scattering is very weak and effectively negligible.

The resonance luminescence due to radiative annihilation of free excitons in Pyrene has been observed. The luminescence band is located at 376 nm (F) at room temperature and is quite distinctive from so-called excimer luminescence band located at 450 nm. There is a potential barrier between the free exciton state and the excimer state which is located 540 cm
−1 (66 meV) lower in energy with respect to the free exciton state. The luminescence decays exponentially with a life time of 180 nsec for both free excitons and excimers at 282 K. Discussion is given to explain free exciton creation and luminescence processes in terms of thermal equilibrium established between free excitons and excimers. The excimer is recognized as the self trapped exciton.

Pressure dependences of absorption and emission spectra of impurities in solids are calculated with a one dimensional configuration-coordinate model considering pressure-dependent linear coupling coefficient and force constants which arise through anharmonic terms of the adiabatic potential energies. It is shown that the pressure-dependent force constants play an important role in the understanding of the pressure effects on the peak positions, band-widths and Huang-Rhys parameters.

A neutron elastic scattering measurement has been performed on C
24Rb at temperatures between 106 K and 165 K. The observed extinction rule of the diffraction can be explained on the basis of a simple model: Rb layers form a triangular lattice with fundamental wave vector |
GR0|=1.20 Å
−1, which is modulated by the graphite layers. The modulation is described by a static distortion wave, which manifests itself in the appearance of a satellite peak at |
GR0−
G0|=1.78 Å
−1, for example, where |
G0|=2.95 Å
−1 is the fundamental in-plane wave vector of graphite. This model leads to a prediction that the Rb layer is rotated relative to the graphite layer by ∼9°.

The ordered phase concerning the Ag distribution of a superionic conductor Ag
3SBr was discovered below 128 K. The transition heat and the entropy change were measured to be 0.23 kcal/mol and 1.77 cal/mol·deg respectively. The transition is of the first order but is close to the second order one. The crystal structures of the newly found γ-phase and the room temperature β-phase were studied by a least-squares method using X-ray and neutron diffraction data. The structures of the γ-phase and the β-phase of Ag
3SBr were similar to those of Phase III and Phase I of CsPbCl
3 respectively. The space group of the γ-phase may be D
2h17-Cmcm. The lattice constants of the γ-phase were measured to be
a(\simeq
b)=9.423±0.008 A and
c=9.711±0.009 A at 118 K. The nature of the phase transition of Ag
3SBr is discussed in connection with those of Ag
3SI and CsPbCl
3.

The angular dependence of the specular spot intensity reflected from a ZnS (110) surface has been analyzed by using Bethe’s: dynamical theory. Many-beam calculations have been carried out with simple surface potential models. The calculations showed that the angular dependence of the intensity changed very sensitively with the surface potential shape at the surface state resonance positions. One of the models was in very good qualitative agreement with the present experimental result.

In order to calculate the spin-lattice relaxation time
T1 of protons of CH
3-group at low temperature, a model of relaxation which is available when γ
HLτ
r>>1 has been proposed, where
HL is the local dipolar field and τ
r is the correlation time. Present calculation of
T1 is closely related to that of the absorption spectra of proton spins in which the non-secular part of the dipolar interaction is included. It is shown that the spin-lattice relaxation is caused by the non-magnetic Orbach process between the ground and first exited torsional states. Present model predicts that when the tunneling resonance occurs,
T1 is given by
T1\simeqτ
r, which is different from the result of the second-order calculation and the Haupt theory. The absorption spectra at the tunneling resonance has also been calculated. The measurement of
T1 and absorption spectra at the tunneling resonance is useful to determine the precise value of the tunneling splitting.

Production of a spheromak configuration is attempted by using a theta pinch combined with a z-discharge. A loop current which is formed by a z-discharge current flowing in the plasma and reversing on its surface generates a toroidal field in the spheromak. Mechanism of the current reversal is explained from toroidal flux conservation in the plasma during implosion phase of the theta pinch. It is found that the reverse ratio is controlled in actual experiments by an external inductance of the z-discharge circuit, a length and a compression ratio of the plasma. Experiments show that 70% reversal of the z-current is easily realized using a conventional theta pinch.

The stability of the electron plasma with stresses (body stress or shear stress) is analysed against the electromagnetic mode. There are two kinds of modes; one is purely transversal, and another is transverse-longitudinal coupled mode. These modes show the instability of the Weibel type when stresses exceed thresholds. It is shown that this instability takes place in the target plasma in inertial confinement fusion, and causes an anomalous viscosity.

Using the results obtained in Part 1 on the instabilities in an electron plasma with stresses, the stationary turbulence arisen from the instabilities and the resultant viscosity are analysed on the basis of a nonlinear theory similar to Dupree’s one. In the analysis, the broadening of resonance plays an important role in the saturation of fluctuations. It is shown that the viscosity in the target plasma of inertial confinement fusion is much reduced in comparison to the classical one, by this anomalous transport mechanism.

Spectral line shifts for a few low-lying allowed transitions of ionized helium in the thermal plasma are investigated from a view-point of the quantum scattering approach based on the impact approximation with the aid of the
R-matrix method. The short-time fluctuations of a field due to electrons close to the radiating ion are fully taken into account and are expressed in terms of transition matrices for the lowest six states of the radiator. It turns out that the line center of Lyman-β undergoes only a small red shift whereas those of each component of Balmer-α undergo remarkable red shifts. All the level shifts are derived from close collisions with the perturbers incident upon the internal region of the configuration space describing the scattered electron and the target. The results are discussed and compared with experimental shifts as well as with existing theoretical results for the line shift.

Using a model equation which describes the wave propagation with a step like localized energy source, we examined the criterion for absolute instability of the wave localized to the source region. Both the case of an optical mode with a step like localized potential well or anti well and the case of an acoustic mode with zero potential are investigated. It is shown that the absolute instability can occur either when the wave is trapped in the localized source region, or when the wave is untrapped but the source strength exceeds a threshold value. For the case of the acoustic mode, the threshold of the local growth rate is given by the convection damping rate, while for the case of the optical mode with anti-well potential, it first increases proportionally to the potential height, but soon saturates to 1.2 times the local convection damping rate.

T>>
mc2) are formulated in a covariant form. Waves in an electron-positron plasma are investigated in a frame of two-fluid model equation. Dispersion relations for electrostatic wave, electromagnetic wave and Alfven wave propagating parallel to a constant magnetic field are shown. In the case that both electron and positron gases have same temperature, there does not exist the slow mode which corresponds to the ion acoustic wave. Right and left circular polarized waves propagate with the same dispersion relation which is different from one of the non-relativistic electron-ion plasma.
