Turkish Journal of Physics

We have investigated the decays of several zinc isotopes produced by photonuclear reactions, which were induced by bremsstrahlung photon beams from a clinical e-linac. A photon beam of 18 MeV endpoint energy was directed at a target consisting of primarily zinc isotopes in their natural abundances. Subsequently, the induced decays of unstable zinc isotopes were measured with an HPGe detector twice, once shortly after irradiation and once on the following day. Decays of Zn-63, Zn-65, Zn-69m, and Cu-67 were measured and fitted. In addition, the gamma energy levels of the daughters of these decays were measured with good accuracy. All …


Theoretical Investigations Of Pt_3x (X = Al, Sc, Hf, Zr) Ground State, Adewumi Isaac Popoola, Lesley Heath Chown, Lesley Alison Cornish Jan 2014

Theoretical Investigations Of Pt_3x (X = Al, Sc, Hf, Zr) Ground State, Adewumi Isaac Popoola, Lesley Heath Chown, Lesley Alison Cornish

Turkish Journal of Physics

The electronic structure of Pt_3X compounds showed that Pt_3Hf and Pt_3Zr were more stable for the D0_{24} structure, rather than L1_2. The compound Pt_3Al was predicted to be the hardest and most ductile, but not with the L1_2 structure at ground state. The density of states showed that Pt_3Hf, Pt_3Zr, and Pt_3Al can be stabilized to the L1_2 phase with suitable element addition. All calculations were done within the density functional theory framework.


Evidence That Photons Have Extension In Space, Randy Wayne Jan 2014

Evidence That Photons Have Extension In Space, Randy Wayne

Turkish Journal of Physics

Satyendra Nath Bose realized that there was a logical inconsistency in the derivation of Planck's radiation law since the derivation used to obtain the temperature-independent prefactor in the blackbody radiation law had been based in part on classical wave hypotheses, such as the number of degrees of freedom of the ether. Bose worked out a strictly quantum derivation by combining the quantum hypothesis with statistical mechanics to determine the number of states of each mode that would occupy a 6-dimensional phase space. Here I use the model of an extended photon to show that the temperature-independent prefactor of Planck's radiation …


Deriving The Snel-Descartes Law For A Single Photon, Randy Wayne Jan 2014

Deriving The Snel-Descartes Law For A Single Photon, Randy Wayne

Turkish Journal of Physics

The laws of reflection and refraction are typically derived using a dispersion relation that assumes that the angular frequency stays the same across a vacuum--dielectric interface and that the angular wave number increases. At the single photon level, this means that the total energy of the photon is conserved but the linear momentum is not. Here I derive the laws of reflection and refraction for a single photon using a dispersion relation that is consistent with the conservation of both total energy and linear momentum. To ensure that both conservation laws are upheld, the optical path length must be considered …


Thermodynamic Properties Of A Rotating Bose-Einstein Condensation In A Deep Optical Lattice, Hend A. Abdel-Gany, Ali Y. Ellithi, Abdelhamid A. Galal, Ahmed Hassan Jan 2014

Thermodynamic Properties Of A Rotating Bose-Einstein Condensation In A Deep Optical Lattice, Hend A. Abdel-Gany, Ali Y. Ellithi, Abdelhamid A. Galal, Ahmed Hassan

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper, we suggest a conventional semiclassical approximation to calculate several thermodynamic quantities of a rotating Bose-Einstein condensation in a deep optical lattice. Expressions for the condensation fraction, critical temperature, and heat capacity are derived analytically. These expressions are obtained by considering the standard harmonic approximation of the deep optical lattice potential. The suggested approach is able to include the the finite size and the positive chemical potential effects simultaneously. The advantage of our suggested approach is in its simplicity, in comparison to the quantum-mechanical calculations (Bose-Hubbard model). Moreover, its generality allows the treatment of a finite temperature regime

Turkish Journal of Physics

The results of studies of broadband light transmission through a fiber loop and a double loop under the effect of nonlinear refractive index are presented in this paper. Fiber loop and double loop transmission/reflection vs. a coupler splitting ratio at various powers of the light with a spectral width of approximately 35 nm are studied and high efficient nonlinear light switching is demonstrated. It is shown that a double loop formed by consecutive connecting 2 fiber loops allows us to exclude the strong spectral dependence of light transmission/reflection and to distribute input light equally between them. Such all-fiber devices can …


A Model Of The Multijunction Ac Josephson Effect In A Superconductor, Mohammed Rafiqul Islam, Habibur Rahman Jan 2014

A Model Of The Multijunction Ac Josephson Effect In A Superconductor, Mohammed Rafiqul Islam, Habibur Rahman

Turkish Journal of Physics

We present a model of the multijunction ac Josephson effect in a superconductor. Josephson predicted that at a finite applied voltage (V_o) an alternating supercurrent of frequency \omega_J =2eV_o/\hslash flows between 2 superconductors separated by an insulating layer, called the ac Josephson effect. Adding 2 or more Josephson junctions (so-called multijunction) with an applied voltage, we have shown that the resultant current (which is equivalent to the vector sum of the currents in each junction) has the same frequency as the single Josephson junction. The amplitude of the resultant current for the multijunction is increased with the increasing number of …

Turkish Journal of Physics

Five aldimine derivatives were prepared by condensation of the appropriate amine with salicylaldehyde (m1-m4) and 4-aminobenzoic acid with 2-thiophene carboxaldehyde (m5). A molar ratio of 1:1 was used and the mixture was refluxed in ethanol for 2 h to obtain the corresponding aldimine derivative. These derivatives were used as photosensitizers for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs). The best performance was obtained for the DSSC sensitized with 2-(2-hydroxybenzylideneamino)benzoic acid, for which a short-circuit current of 2.86 mA/cm^2, an open-circuit voltage of 0.562 V, and an efficiency of 0.575% were obtained.

We studied numerically the dynamics and bifurcations route to chaos of an optically injected semiconductor laser. The sequence of bifurcations mainly followed the period-doubling scenario. Observations of different kinds of injected semiconductor laser dynamical behaviors including stable state, periodic oscillation state, quasi-periodic oscillation state, co-existence of periodic and chaotic states, and period-3 and period-6 oscillation states are reported. The existence of isolated branches created from a sudden jump in the dynamics of the semiconductor laser was also observed in the bifurcation diagram. In order to draw a detailed picture for the dynamical behavior of the semiconductor laser, we constructed color …

Representation Of Electromagnetic And Gravitoelectromagnetic Poynting Theorems In Higher Dimensions, Mustafa Emre Kansu, Murat Tanişli, Süleyman Demi̇r

Turkish Journal of Physics

This study investigates whether the electromagnetic and gravitoelectromagnetic energy conservation equations are obtained together by using octonion algebra or not. Maxwell and Maxwell-like equations for linear gravity with magnetic monopole terms are used in the SI unit system. A new complex octonionic field term is suggested for the first time. The complex octonionic source equation is then obtained. Finally, Poynting theorems for both electromagnetism and gravitoelectromagnetism are defined for the first time by using higher dimensional algebra.

Octonion Symmetric Dirac-Maxwell Equations, Bhupesh Chandra Chanyal Jan 2014

Octonion Symmetric Dirac-Maxwell Equations, Bhupesh Chandra Chanyal

Turkish Journal of Physics

We know that the octonion algebra is the largest division algebra. Therefore, we have discussed the octonion 8-dimensional space as the combination of 2 (external and internal) 4-dimensional spaces. The octonion wave equations in terms of 8 components has been written in terms of an 8 x 8 matrix. Octonion forms of potential as well as fields equations of dyons in terms of an 8 x 8 matrix are discussed in a consistent manner. At last, we have obtained the generalized Dirac-Maxwell equations of dyons in two 4-dimensional spaces, from the 8 x 8 matrix representation of octonion wave equations. …

Double Pulse Generation In A Highly Nonlinear Gaas Optical Waveguide, Jian Wei Wu Jan 2014

Double Pulse Generation In A Highly Nonlinear Gaas Optical Waveguide, Jian Wei Wu

Turkish Journal of Physics

This paper presents a simulation and investigation about the nonlinear interplay between an optical pulse and GaAs waveguide. The results obtained show that the nonlinear processes including self-phase modulation, 2-photon absorption, and free carrier related effects will have significant influences on the temporal shape and frequency spectrum of a propagating pulse in the GaAs waveguide with the result that 2-photon absorption can extend the pulse duration that can be again compressed by the free carrier absorption. The outcome spectrum is also asymmetrical due to the free carrier related effects, which takes on a complicated oscillation structure resulting from the interference. …

Neutron-Rich ^{208}Pb Nucleus With Delta Excitation Under Compression, Mohammed Hassen Eid Abu-Sei'leek

Turkish Journal of Physics

The spherical Hartree-Fock approximation is applied to a no-core shell model with a realistic effective baryon-baryon interaction. The ground state properties of a heavy spherical neutron-rich doubly magic ^{208}Pb nucleus under compression are investigated. It is found that the nucleus becomes more bound with the occurrence of Delta resonances. The creation of Delta increases as the compression is continuous. There is a considerable reduction in the compressibility when the Delta degree of freedom is activated. It is found that the Delta particle is the basic component of the ^{208}Pb nucleus besides nucleons at the ground state without any compression. When …
