Magnetized Strange Quark Matter In Reconstructed $F(R,T)$ Gravity For Bianchi I And V Universes With Cosmological Constant, Can Aktaş
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this article, we have investigated the behaviors of magnetized strange quark matter distributions for Bianchi I and V universes in reconstructed $f?eft( R,T \right)=\alpha_{1}R+\alpha_{2}f_{3}(T)$ gravity (here $\alpha_{1}$ and $\alpha_{2}$ are constants; $f_{3}(T)$ is an arbitrary function of $T)$. To get solutions of the field equations we have used a deceleration parameter and the equation of state for strange quark matter. The new represented $f(R,T)$ model includes two models of Harko et al. and transforms to general relativity. When $t\to ınfty $, we get the dark energy model ($p=-\rho )$ in reconstructed $f?eft( R,T \right)=\alpha _{1}R+\alpha_{2}f_{3}(T)$ gravity. However, we obtain …

Phenomenological Potential Calculations For Cluster Decays, Asim Soylu
Turkish Journal of Physics
The half-lives of cluster decays from various nuclei having experimentally measured values have been calculated by using the Wentzel-Kramers-Brillouin method together with the Bohr-Sommerfeld quantization condition for three different types of phenomenological nuclear interactions: Woods-Saxon (WS), squared Woods-Saxon (WS-2), and mixed Woods-Saxon (mWS) potentials. By comparing the results with experimental values, rms values have been calculated. The half-lives of $^{14}$C, $^{15}$N, $^{16}$O, $^{17}$O, $^{18}$O, $^{20}$O, $^{22}$O, $^{23}$F, $^{22}$Ne, $^{24}$Ne, $^{25}$Ne, $^{26}$Ne, $^{28}$Mg, $^{30}$Mg, and $^{34}$Si decays from various isotopes whose experimental half-lives are unknown have also been calculated by using the WS, WS-2, and mWS potentials. The obtained results have …

On The Contribution Of The 6.7 Kev Line Emission Of The Algol Binary System To The 6.7 Kev Line Emission From The Galactic Ridge, Ambrose Chukwudi Eze, Romanus Nwachukwu Chijioke Eze, Sudum Esaenwi
Turkish Journal of Physics
We carried out spectroscopic analysis of the extracted stellar flare of the Algol binary system observed using the Suzaku satellite (OBSID: 401093010), and resolved a strong 6.7 keV line emission. The 6.7 keV line emission of the Algol binary system is similar to the 6.7 keV line of the galactic ridge X-ray emission (GRXE). The equivalent width (EW) compared favorably with the EW of the 6.7 keV emission line obtained from different galactic ridge regions. In the galaxy, we have a reasonable number of Algol binary systems and many other stars as strong coronal X-ray emitters characterized by frequent quiescent …

Decomposition Of The Absorbed Dose By Let In Tissue-Equivalent Materials Within The Shield-Hit Transport Code, Nikolai Sobolevsky, Alexander Botvina, Ni̇hal Büyükçi̇zmeci̇, Ayşegül Kaya, Ludmila Latysheva, Riza Oğul
Turkish Journal of Physics
The SHIELD-HIT transport code, in several versions, has been used for modeling the interaction of therapeutic beams of light nuclei with tissue-equivalent materials for a long time. All versions of the code include the useful option of decomposition of the absorbed dose by the linear energy transfer (LET), but this option has not been described and published to date. In this work the procedure of decomposition of the absorbed dose by LET is described and illustrated by using the decomposition of the Bragg curve in a water phantom, irradiated by beams of protons, alpha particles, and ions of lithium and …
Investigation Of A Novel Temperature-Sensing Mechanism Based On Strain-Induced Optical Path-Length Difference In A Multicore Optical Fiber, Belkis Gökbulut, Sema Güvenç, Mehmet Naci̇ İnci̇
Investigation Of A Novel Temperature-Sensing Mechanism Based On Strain-Induced Optical Path-Length Difference In A Multicore Optical Fiber, Belkis Gökbulut, Sema Güvenç, Mehmet Naci̇ İnci̇
Turkish Journal of Physics
A four-core optical fiber is employed to investigate a novel temperature-sensing mechanism, which is based on the strain-induced optical path-length difference between the fiber core pairs. A short segment of a four-core fiber is wound around a solid stainless steel cylinder to form a tight circular loop, which is exposed to temperatures of up to 100 $^{\circ}$C. Temperature-induced radial expansion of the stainless steel cylinder causes a shear strain in the fiber and introduces an optical path-length difference between the fiber core pairs. This results in a total phase shift of about 20.40 $\pm $ 0.29 rad in the interference …
Quark Shapes Of Most Modern Parton Distribution Functions, Hasan Oğul
Quark Shapes Of Most Modern Parton Distribution Functions, Hasan Oğul
Turkish Journal of Physics
Parton distribution functions (PDFs) describe the internal structure of the proton and are necessary inputs to almost all theory predictions of hadron colliders. One way to do a precise measurement of a PDF is to measure the lepton charge asymmetry of W boson where u$\bar{d}\to W^{+}$ and $d\bar{u}\to W^{-}$. Therefore, u, d, $\bar{u}$, and $\bar{d}$ quark shapes of the most modern PDF models (NNPDF3.1, NNPDF3.0, CT14, MMHT2014, and HERAPDF2.0) are inspected using the APFEL online cluster in this paper. The ratio of $d$ to $u$ is further investigated since the charge asymmetry is sensitive to the value of $d$ over …

Turkish Journal of Physics
The effective mass Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau equation for spin 0 and spin 1 with a potential well is considered, and transcendental equations are derived for the energy eigenvalues. Numerical results are reported graphically, and the variations of the energy of the bound states are computed as a function of the well width and mass.
Magnet Design For The Storage Ring Of Turkay, Zafer Nergi̇z
Magnet Design For The Storage Ring Of Turkay, Zafer Nergi̇z
Turkish Journal of Physics
In synchrotron light sources the radiation is emitted from bending magnets and insertion devices (undulators, wigglers) placed on the storage ring by accelerating charged particles radially. The frequencies of produced radiation can range over the entire electromagnetic spectrum and have polarization characteristics. In synchrotron machines, the electron beam is forced to travel on a circular trajectory by the use of bending magnets. Quadrupole magnets are used to focus the beam. In this paper, we present the design studies for bending, quadrupole, and sextupole magnets for the storage ring of the Turkish synchrotron radiation source (TURKAY), which is in the design …
Remarks On The Treatments Of Nonsolvable Potentials, Bülent Gönül, Yücel Cançeli̇k
Remarks On The Treatments Of Nonsolvable Potentials, Bülent Gönül, Yücel Cançeli̇k
Turkish Journal of Physics
A recently introduced scheme is extended to propose an algebraic nonperturbative approach for the analytical treatment of Schrödinger equations with nonsolvable potentials involving an exactly solvable potential form together with an additional potential term. As an illustration the procedure is successfully applied to the Cornell potential by means of very simple algebraic manipulations. However, instead of providing numerical eigenvalues for the only consideration of the small strength of the related linear potential as in the previous reports, the present model puts forward a clean route to interpret related experimental or precise numerical results involving a wide range of the linear …

Achieving Carrier And Photon Confinement In Ga(Nasp)/Algap/Gap Qws On Si Substrates, Ömer Lütfi̇ Ünsal, Beşi̇re Gönül
Turkish Journal of Physics
A detailed comparative theoretical analysis on both carrier and photon confinement of dilute nitride direct bandgap GaN$_{x}$As$_{1-x-y}$P$_{y}$ with that of GaAs$_{1-y}$P$_{y}$ on Si substrates is presented. Model calculations indicate that optical confinement factor of GaAs$_{1-y}$P$_{y}$/GaP is greater than that of GaN$_{x}$As$_{1-x-y}$P$_{y}$/GaP for all concentrations. We have demonstrated that one can improve the optical confinement factor of GaN$_{x}$As$_{1-x-y}$P$_{y}$/GaP by using an Al$_{z}$Ga$_{1-z}$P cladding layer.

Calculation Of The Frequency Shifts And Damping Constant For The Raman Modes (A$_{1g}$, B$_{1})$ Near The Tetragonal-Cubic Transition In Srtio$_{3}$, Ali̇ Ki̇raci, Hasan Hami̇t Yurtseven
Calculation Of The Frequency Shifts And Damping Constant For The Raman Modes (A$_{1g}$, B$_{1})$ Near The Tetragonal-Cubic Transition In Srtio$_{3}$, Ali̇ Ki̇raci, Hasan Hami̇t Yurtseven
Turkish Journal of Physics
Raman shifts of the soft mode A$_{1g}$ and the B$_{1}$ mode are calculated at various pressures at room temperature for the cubic-tetragonal transition (P$_{C}$ = 9.5 GPa) in SrTiO$_{3}$. This calculation is performed using the observed volume data through the mode Grüneisen parameters of A$_{1g}$ and B$_{1}$, which vary with pressure, by fitting to the experimental wavenumbers in this crystalline system. Calculated Raman shifts are then used as order parameters to predict the pressure dependence of the damping constant and the inverse relaxation time for the cubic-tetragonal transition in SrTiO$_{3}$. Our predictions from the pseudospin-phonon coupling and the energy fluctuation …

Temperature Measurements In A Manufactured Rf Plasma Jet In Various Ar/N$_{2}$ Mixtures, Mohammad Nasir Rostami Ravari, Alireza Ganjovi, Farideh Shojaei, Amir Falahat
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this paper, using the optical emission spectroscopy technique, a comparative study is performed on the argon excitation and nitrogen vibrational temperatures in the plasma discharge medium of a manufactured RF plasma jet. The argon contribution in the Ar/N$_{2}$ mixture is varied from 70% to 98% and the obtained optical emission spectra from argon and molecular nitrogen are analyzed. The highest emission intensities of neutral argon (Ar I) are recorded in the wavelength range of 790-850 nm. It is seen that, at the higher argon percentages in the mixture, the emission intensity from all the formed species in the plasma …

Determination Of Height Profile From A Two-Dimensional Fringe Signal Using A Two-Dimensional Continuous Wavelet Transform, Özlem Kocahan Yilmaz
Turkish Journal of Physics
The main objective of this study was 3-dimensional (3D) profile measurements with standard fringe projection, consisting of a CCD and a projector. For obtaining height information of objects pixel by pixel, phases have to be calculated from the images taken by the fringe projection technique. In this study, the 2-dimensional continuous wavelet transform (2D CWT) phase method was used for phase extraction. 1D and 2D CWT analyses of noisy images were compared in simulations performed for a 2-dimensional fringe signal by introducing the carrier frequencies in two spatial directions, $x $ and $y$. Profile measurement of an object was made …
A Dft Study On The Electronic Structure Of Tungsten Trioxide Polymorphs, Masoud Mansouri, Tahereh Mahmoodi
A Dft Study On The Electronic Structure Of Tungsten Trioxide Polymorphs, Masoud Mansouri, Tahereh Mahmoodi
Turkish Journal of Physics
Tungsten trioxide ($WO_{3})$ is an intermediate product in the recovery of tungsten from its minerals. Recently, it has attracted increasing attention due to its exclusive structural properties and its high potential in electronic applications. The crystal lattice of tungsten trioxide is highly dependent on temperature. In this paper we investigated the equilibrium structure of tungsten trioxide in four crystal systems, i.e. monoclinic system, tetragonal system, orthorhombic system, and cubic system. We did our first principle calculations using a pseudopotential model based on the spin dependent density functional theory and implementing generalized gradient approximation for exchange correlation energy. In each case, …
Linear Instability Of Dust Acoustic Waves In A Magnetized Gravitating Plasma In The Presence Of Dust Streaming, Himangshu Sahoo, Basudev Ghosh, Kalyan Kumar Mondal
Linear Instability Of Dust Acoustic Waves In A Magnetized Gravitating Plasma In The Presence Of Dust Streaming, Himangshu Sahoo, Basudev Ghosh, Kalyan Kumar Mondal
Turkish Journal of Physics
Linear instability of dust acoustic waves (DAWs) has been theoretically studied in a collisionless gravitating dust-ion magnetized plasma including the effect of dust streaming. A linear dispersion relation has been derived by using the method of normal mode analysis. Gravitational effect is found to make the low-frequency DAW mode linearly unstable in certain parametric regions. The dependence of the growth rate of the instability on various plasma parameters such as streaming of dust particles, size of the dust grain, strength of the magnetic field, obliqueness of propagation, and number density of dust particles has been numerically analyzed and presented graphically.

A Theoretical Study Of Radio Wave Attenuation Through A Polycrystalline Silicon Solar Cell, Adama Ouedraogo, Vinci De Dieu Bokoyo Barandja, Issa Zerbo, Martial Zoungrana, Emmanuel Wendsongre Ramde, Dieudonne Joseph Bathiebo
Turkish Journal of Physics
One-dimensional study of both electronic and electrical parameters of a silicon solar cell in the presence or not of an electric field, a magnetic field, or an electromagnetic field does not take into account the grain size and the grain boundary recombination velocity. A three-dimensional study, on the contrary, takes those factors into account. However, the three-dimensional study poses the problem of the attenuation of the wave in the grain of the polycrystalline solar cell as well as the issue of finding the expressions of its components. This study aimed to solve these issues by considering radio waves, which are …

Possible Variations In Sunspot Groups Before Flaring Activity During Solar Cycles 23 And 24, Ali̇ Kilçik, Seray Şahi̇n
Turkish Journal of Physics
We investigated the possible morphological variations observed in sunspot groups on the day before flaring activity occurred between January 1996 and November 2014. We found that 77% of all flaring sunspot groups were large and complex (D, E, and F modified Zurich classes). In addition, the Zurich classification of A, B, and C class sunspot groups changed more than 50%, while the remaining groups (D, E, F, and H) did not change considerably before the flare activity. Results showed that there was a remarkable increase in the sunspot areas of groups D, E, and F; in contrast, the sunspot areas …
Higher-Dimensional Dust Collapse In F(R) Gravity, Zahid Ahmad, Muhammad Shoaib Khan
Higher-Dimensional Dust Collapse In F(R) Gravity, Zahid Ahmad, Muhammad Shoaib Khan
Turkish Journal of Physics
The $n+2$-dimensional gravitational collapse of pressureless fluid is investigated in metric $f(R)$ gravity. Matching conditions are derived by taking the $n+2$-dimensional Friedmann-Robertson-Walker (FRW) metric as interior spacetime and the $n+2$-dimensional Schwarzschild metric as exterior spacetime. In the analysis of the solution of field equations, the scalar curvature is assumed to be a constant. It is observed that the scalar curvature constant term $f(R_{0})$ slows the collapse.
Effect Of Pu Content On Uncertainty In Reactor Parameters Due To Use Of No Temperature Gradient In (U-Pu)O$_{2}$ Fuels, Mehmet Türkmen
Effect Of Pu Content On Uncertainty In Reactor Parameters Due To Use Of No Temperature Gradient In (U-Pu)O$_{2}$ Fuels, Mehmet Türkmen
Turkish Journal of Physics
Radial temperature distribution in a fuel rod is a parabolic function. Neutronics calculations are in general performed over a volume-averaged temperature by ignoring this distribution. Such an assumption results in an uncertainty in reactor design parameters. In this study, the magnitude of this uncertainty is estimated by solving the heat equation with a temperature-dependent conductivity coefficient coupled with a reactor physics code. The effect of radial fuel temperature distribution is investigated by representing the fuel region as multiregional. Uncertainty is investigated for various Pu contents of (U-Pu)O$_{2}$ fuel, a mix of depleted U and reactor-grade Pu. The effect of Pu …
Investigating The Instability Of The Torus Around The Blackhole In The Presence Of The Radial And Angular Velocity Perturbations, Orhan Dönmez
Turkish Journal of Physics
We have performed the numerical simulation of the perturbed relativistic torus around the black hole by solving the general relativistic hydrodynamics equations on the equatorial plane. We have monitored the different simple models by applying the radial and angular velocity perturbations to the steady state torus around the black hole. The instabilities are triggered by adding the subsonic velocity fields over the radial and angular velocities of the stable torus. We have found the disk instability so-called the Papaloizou-Pringle instability and excited modes of the Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (QPOs) in the thin disk approximation case. The significant oscillations and oscillation modes …
Spin (Pseudospin) Doublet In View Of Energy-Dependent Potential, Mustafa Salti, Oktay Aydoğdu
Spin (Pseudospin) Doublet In View Of Energy-Dependent Potential, Mustafa Salti, Oktay Aydoğdu
Turkish Journal of Physics
Behavior of Dirac particles in the presence of scalar, vector, and tensor potentials respectively represented by energy-dependent Morse and Coulomb-like potentials is examined by working out the Dirac equation under the condition of spin (pseudospin) symmetry. The closed form of the energy eigenvalue equation and corresponding wave functions in terms of hypergeometric functions are acquired by making use of the asymptotic iteration method. We investigate the effect of energy-dependent potential on both bound states and energy splitting between members of spin (pseudospin) doublets.
Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor: Structure, Size And Shape, And Magnetic Properties, Muhammet Arucu
Diluted Magnetic Semiconductor: Structure, Size And Shape, And Magnetic Properties, Muhammet Arucu
Turkish Journal of Physics
In dilute magnetic metallic alloys, spin exchange interactions among transition metal ions at the ZnO structure cause changes in the magnetic properties of the nanocrystals depending on size and shape. The effect of size and shape on the structural and magnetic properties of semiconductors, using atomistic spin calculations, is the main topic of this study. When the size of the system decreases to a few nanometers, stability is not observed as a result of the large size. We theoretically examine the magnetic properties of CoZnO materials according to size and shape effects using the Monte Carlo method and the Heisenberg …

Monitoring Akkuyu Nuclear Reactor Using Antineutrino Flux Measurement, Sertaç Öztürk, Aytül Adigüzel, Veysi̇ Erkcan Özcan, Nafi̇z Gökhan Ünel
Turkish Journal of Physics
We present a simulation-based study for monitoring Akkuyu nuclear power plant's activity using antineutrino flux originating from the reactor core. A gadolinium-doped water Cherenkov detector was designed and optimization studies were performed using the Geant4 simulation toolkit. It was found that the bottom (or top) face of the target should be instrumented by six 10-inch-diameter photomultiplier tubes with photon detection efficiency of about 35% and the optimum Gd concentration was found to be about 0.3%-0.5%. The first study on the design of a monitoring detector facility for Akkuyu nuclear power plant is discussed in this paper.

Prompt Fission Neutron Energy Spectrum Of $^{252}Cf$ In Center Of Mass And Laboratory Systems, Mehmet Koçak, Humbat Ahmadov
Turkish Journal of Physics
In this work we discuss the influence of different forms of prompt fission neutron energy spectra in the fission fragment center of mass system on the laboratory spectrum of neutrons in spontaneous fission of $^{252}Cf$. We show that the Le Couteur spectrum, which takes into account multiple neutron emission of neutrons in the center of mass system, describes the observed neutron energy spectrum well when transformed to the laboratory system.

Triangular Quantum Profiles: Transmission Probability And Energy Spectrum, Altuğ Arda
Turkish Journal of Physics
Analytical expressions for the transition probability and the energy spectrum of the 1D Schrödinger equation with position-dependent mass are presented for the triangular quantum barrier and quantum well. The transmission coefficient is obtained by using the wave functions written in terms of Airy's functions and of the solutions of Kummer's differential equation. In order to show the validity of our analysis, an example by taking some numerical values for a GaAs heterostructure is presented.
The Effect Of Sintering In Different Atmospheres On Superconductivity Parameters Of Ybco, Mehmet Başoğlu
The Effect Of Sintering In Different Atmospheres On Superconductivity Parameters Of Ybco, Mehmet Başoğlu
Turkish Journal of Physics
YBa$_{2}$Cu$_{3}$O$_{7}$ (Y123) is a superconductor material discovered in 1987 and its transition temperature is above the liquid nitrogen temperature. It is known that superconductor samples produced by the solid-state reaction route are very often sintered in air atmosphere. However, in the presented work, Y123 was prepared by the same technique using a sintering ambient composed of a mixture of oxygen and argon gases for the first time. Critical current densities of the samples were calculated using results of magnetization measurements. It was obtained from magnetization analysis that all the samples exhibited superconductor character. It was also observed that the sample …
Investigation Of Binary Co$_{2}$X (X = In, Si, Sb, Sn, Ga) Half-Heusler Alloys, Adewumi Isaac Popoola
Investigation Of Binary Co$_{2}$X (X = In, Si, Sb, Sn, Ga) Half-Heusler Alloys, Adewumi Isaac Popoola
Turkish Journal of Physics
The electronic structure and mechanical properties of some cobalt-based binary half-Heusler alloys Co$_{2}$X (X = In, Si, Sb, Sn, Ga) have been investigated using the density functional theory approach. The site preference by cobalt and X is similar to the traditional half-Heusler structure. The results showed that Co$_{2}$Si is not a half-metal but rather an n-type degenerate semiconductor. The compounds Co$_{2}$Ga, Co$_{2}$Sb, and Co$_{2}$Sn are thermodynamically unstable and Co$_{2}$In is elastically unstable. With much care given to the lattice size, half metallicity is readily predicted in Co$_{2}$In, Co$_{2}$Ga, Co$_{2}$Sn, and Co$_{2}$Sb. All the compounds showed directional bonding and they should …
Comparison Of Structural Properties Of Some Liquid Crystals, Emi̇ne Mi̇ne Çapar
Comparison Of Structural Properties Of Some Liquid Crystals, Emi̇ne Mi̇ne Çapar
Turkish Journal of Physics
Molecular dynamics simulations were performed for three liquid crystalline molecules, 4-cyano-4$'$-octyloxybip- henyl (8OCB), n-p-cyanobenzylidene-p-octyloxyaniline (CBOOA), and p-n-hexyloxybenzylidene-p$'$-aminobenzonitrile (HBAB). Simulation data were obtained for three liquid crystals in the nematic and isotropic phases to analyze their structural properties. The imine spacer group in the Schiff bases induces a stepped core structure in which the linearity is maintained. The distributions of the angles between some defined vectors imply that the core segments of CBOOA and HBAB are more floppy than the 8OCB core. The biaxialities, molecular dimensions, and molecular anisotropies were calculated. The results were compared for three mesogens in the nematic …
Investigation Of Low-Lying Magnetic Dipole Excitations In The $^{153}$Eu Nucleus, Emre Tabar
Investigation Of Low-Lying Magnetic Dipole Excitations In The $^{153}$Eu Nucleus, Emre Tabar
Turkish Journal of Physics
The properties of low-lying magnetic dipole ($M$1) excitations in $^{153}$Eu were studied within a rotational invariant quasiparticle phonon model that takes into account the symmetry-restoring as well as spin-spin residual forces. The calculations show that there are purely collective $M$1 excitations lying at 2-4 MeV fragmented over orbital 1$^{+}$ states of the $^{152}$Sm core nucleus. The results were compared to the experimentally known $M$1 excitations at 2-3 MeV. A reasonably good agreement in the total transition strength, the centroid energy, and the resonance width was obtained.
