Synthesis of optimal invariant image generation systems on a plane

Synthesis of optimal invariant image generation systems on a plane

P.V. Golubtsov, D.V. Sizarev, О.V. Starikova

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 1

Measuring systems described by the integral operator on a plane, invariant under a group of plane motions, are studied. The problem of synthesis of the optimal measuring—computation system is solved. It is shown that the use of invariance makes it possible to reduce the problem on a plane to a onedimensional Fredholm equation on an interval.

Vector self-consistency and hamiltonian self-adjointness for a massless scalar field in the Schwarzschild space

Ch. Aphantitis, S. V. Kalyashin

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 6

A relationship between the Hamiltonian and the operator of motion in the Schwarzschild space is established. By means of a self-consistent specification of one-frequency vectors in the interior and exterior domains, a Hermitian Hamiltonian is constructed. It is shown that the well-posed Cauchy problem admits such a specification.

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 16

Using session breaks in the IP networks as an example, a qualitative phase portrait of an ordinary second-order differential equation has been studied. Explicit dependences $P_L$ vs. $\lambda$, at which the session break takes place, have been theoretically and experimentally considered. The ways of eliminating these difficulties have been suggested.

one-loop renormalization of the Yang-Mills theory with a BRST-invariant mass term

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 28

Using the generalized t'Hooft—Veltman technique, the divergent part of the oneloop effective Yang—Mills action in a special gauge, containing the fourth powers of the ghost fields and admitting the addition of a BRST-invariant mass term, is calculated. The result is BRST-invariant and determines the relationship between the bare and renormalized mass, coupling constants, and the gauge parameter.

Electron transitions in conduction band of wide-band insulators under high-power ultra-short laser pulses

Electron transitions in conduction band of wide-band insulators under high-power ultra-short laser pulses

A.N. Bel'skii$^1$, A.N. Vasil'ev$^2$, B.N. Yatsenko$^2$

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 44

Electron heating in the crystal conduction band under high-power femtosecond laser pulses has been studied. It is demonstrated that the electron heating mechanism in the insulator conduction band based on multiple electron—photon— phonon scatterings may become ineffective in exciting some insulators (in particular, Csl) by ultrashort laser pulses with intensity higher than $10^{11}$ W/cm$^2$. To describe electron heating by these pulses to an energy of several tens of electron-volts, a mechanism that accounts for direct interbranch transitions in the conduction band is proposed.

Physical methods for studying the effect of lead ions on proteins in solutions

G.P. Petrova, Yu.M. Petrusevich, A.N. Evseevicheva, D.I. Ten, V.Yu. Petrusevich

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 49

Using two independent physical methods (Rayleigh light scattering and electron paramagnetic resonance), the effect of lead, toxic heavy metal, on proteins in aqueous solutions (including blood serum proteins) was studied. A physical mechanism of interaction between heavy metal ions and charged biopolymers which is based on formation of strong bonds of metal ions with the surface of macromolecules is discussed. Based on the results obtained, a method to monitor natural liquid media pollution with heavy metals is proposed.

Kubo formalism in theory of electron transport in nanoheterostructures

Kubo formalism in theory of electron transport in nanoheterostructures

I.V. Zhukov, A.V. Vedyaev

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 56

In the Kubo formalism, a gigantic magnetoresistance (GMR) for two thin layers of ferromagnetic metals is calculated. The accounting for the equivalence of "vertex correction" and the effective electric field is proved. It is shown that the structure resistance consists of three addends: resistance due to bulk scattering and contact resistance at the metal—metal and metal—reservoir boundaries. It was found that the contact resistance depends essentially on the current-carrier spin and makes a noticeable contribution to the GMR.

In the modern view, Elbrus is a dormant volcano, whose geological structure should comprise a magma source and a magma chamber. Analysis of data on the Earth's crust deformations obtained using a Baksan laser interferometer from the Sternberg State Institute of Astronomy revealed characteristic frequencies that may be associated with the resonance features of the Elbrus volcano magma source.

Linear source self-action in the space-time of a thick cosmic string

Linear source self-action in the space-time of a thick cosmic string

A.A. Rossikhin

Moscow University Physics Bulletin 2003. 58. N 2. P. 73

The regularized self-action energy for a linear source of electric and magnetic fields in the space-time of a thick cosmic string is calculated. It is shown that, at large distances from the string, the relevant expression transforms into that for the self-action energy in the space-time of an infinitely thin string. The introduction of the string finite thickness noticeably changes the dependence of the regularized energy on the deficit of the angle and geodesic distance between the string and the source.
