A study is made of observing the classical external force acting on a quantum test oscillator to which is connected a system for continuously tracking the number of quanta. It is shown that the reaction of the tracking system does not reduce the sensitivity if the signalisolation time is greater than the time of force action.

A method of calculating resonant-state parameters in multichannel Coulomb-nuclear scattering

A.N. Safronov

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1986. 41. N 2. P. 23

An extension of Lande's method is proposed that enables one to distinguish Coulomb singularities in the multichannel Lippman-Schwinger equations on the nonphysical sheets in the complex energy plane. A system of linear algebraic equations is derived whose solutions define the model-independent parameters of the resonant states in Coulomb-nuclear scattering.

Analytical and numerical studies are made on the phase motion in a classical microtron. Calculations are given on the regions of stable phase oscilation for various equilibrium phases. The fourth-order resonance represents a hazard, which leads to bunch break-up, and this may require the optimum equilibrium phase choice.

Yu.A. Shurygina, M.I. Karbovanets, A.M. Popova, Ya.A. Teplova

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1986. 41. N 2. P. 39

A modification has been made to the Brinkman-Kramers approximation on the basis of the distorted-wave method, which enables one to represent the electron-capture cross section as the product of the BKA cross section and the coefficients $\alpha$ and $\beta$ describing the distortion of the electron wave functions due to interaction with the target atom in the exit channel and with the incident ion in the ingoing channel correspondingly. It is shown to be important to incorporate the distortions in the two channels at low and medium energies.

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1986. 41. N 2. P. 43

Tomographic refractive-index reconstruction is considered with allowance for weak refraction and diffraction effects within the framework of wave-theory approximations: the smooth-perturbation method and the Born approximation. The Fresnel small-angle approximation is used to obtain a comparatively simple algorithms for processing the field and reducing the diffraction-tomography treatment to traditional tomographic reconstruction from linear integrals.

Magnetic parameters of the borehole basalts from the Waring plateau

I.V. Kashinskaya, K.V. Popov, V.I. Trukhin

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1986. 41. N 2. P. 72

Magnetic studies have been performed on 23 specimens of oceanic basalts from boreholes 338 and 342 (38th leg of the Glomar Challenger, 1974), which reveal alternation in the signs of the magnetic deviation $j_0$ for the natural residual magnetization vector $I_n$ with depth. The most likely reason for the forward magnetization of a quarter of the specimens is self-reversal of $I_n$ in situ by a magnetostatic mechanism. The reverse-magnetized basalts were produced in fields of the corresponding polarity.
