On nonlinear nonlocal equations in wave theory. Part II: system of surface wave equations. Asymptotics of dissipative equations

On nonlinear nonlocal equations in wave theory. Part II: system of surface wave equations. Asymptotics of dissipative equations

P.I. Naumkin, I.A. Shishmarev

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 5

For the system of equations for surface waves the following problems have been studied: local and global existence of solutions in time, solution breaking during finite time, smoothing of discontinuous initial perturbations in the course of time, construction of generalized solutions, and solution asymptotics for $t \to \infty$. The asymptotic behavior of solutions for $t \to \infty$ is considered for nonlinear equations with dissipation, such as the Kolmogorov-Petrovskii-Piskunov equation, the Whitham equation, the cubic Schr$\stackrel{..}{o}$dinger equation, and the Korteweg-de Vries-Burgers equation.

Quantum limit of error in energy measurement using Kerr's effect

Quantum limit of error in energy measurement using Kerr's effect

Yu.I. Vorontsov

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 34

In the earlier published papers, when calculating the error in wave energy measurement using Kerr's optical effect it was assumed that the error of measurement of $E^2$ ($E$ is the electric field intensity amplitude) in a nonlinear medium completely determined the error in the wave energy estimation. The fact that during the measurement the wave impedance of the medium became principally indeterminate and the indeterminacy was the greater the higher the accuracy of the $E^2$ measurement was not taken into account. Therefore in such measurements there exists a principal quantum limit of error equal to $(n/(\omega_2\tau))^{1/2}\hbar\omega_1$ (where $n$ is the average number of photons, $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ are the wave frequencies before and during the measurement, respectively, and $\tau$ is the measurement duration).

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 37

The concentration dynamics of a solution of an organic dye has been modeled by means of numerical solution of a diffusion type equation with consideration for the effect of the walls of the cell containing the solution under study. The conclusion is drawn that the concentration dynamics should be taken into account when processing experimental data.

On the effect of distortion of the initial state of an atom by the field of a multiply charged ion on doubly-differential ionization cross-sections

On the effect of distortion of the initial state of an atom by the field of a multiply charged ion on doubly-differential ionization cross-sections

N.V. Novikov, V.S. Senashenko

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 45

A theoretical description is suggested for the ionization of an atom by multiply charged ions, in which, along with the interaction in the terminal state for $Z_1/V_i <1$ (where $Z_1$ is the charge of the incident particle and $V_i$ is the velocity of the colliding particles), allowance is correctly made for the distortion of the initial state of the target atom produced by the incident ion field. It is shown that the effect of the distortion of the initial state on the angular and energy distributions of electrons increases with increasing charge and decreasing ion velocity. The calculation results for collisions of the ions with helium atoms are compared with experimental data.

Determination of fluid viscosity from the threshold of parametric generation of surface waves

A.V. Vederko, V.F. Marchenko

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 61

It is shown that during nonresonant excitation of waves of the capillary and gravitational-capillary frequency ranges on a fluid surface, the threshold amplitude of cophased pumping oscillations depends not only on dissipative (viscous) losses but also on radiation losses of the system. An experimental justification of the suggested method for determining the fluid viscosity is given.

Localized acoustic modes of a quadratic solid wedge

Localized acoustic modes of a quadratic solid wedge

V.V. Krylov

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 65

Using the geometro-acoustic approach, it is shown that antisymmetric acoustic oscillations can propagate along the apex of a solid wedge whose local thickness varies quadratically with the height. These oscillations are concentrated near the apex, their phase velocities are characterized by nonmonotonic frequency dependence and can be made arbitrarily small as the wedge truncation height tends to zero.

The defect-strain theory of formation of subboundaries during crystallization of semiconductor films

V.I. Emelyanov, A.A. Sumbatov

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 70

A new, defect-strain mechanism of subboundary formation during laser-induced recrystallization of semiconductor films is proposed. It underlies the theory yielding an explicit analytic expression for the separation between subboundaries as a function of film thickness and the melt zone velocity. The theoretical results obtained show good agreement with experiment.

A singular quantum oscillator

A singular quantum oscillator

V.B. Gostev, A.R. Frenkin

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 1990. 45. N 6. P. 75

The stationary Schr$\stackrel{..}{o}$dinger equation for an oscillator with perturbation $\lambda x^{-2}$ has been revised. A new choice of even states of the singular oscillator is made based on the automodel requirement for the solution to the Schrodinger equation for a free particle with the same perturbation. In contrast to the orthodox solution, the suggested solution provides alternation of even and odd levels and the stability of the ground state, and consequently, is physically preferable.
