General Formulation Of The Scattered Matter Waves By A Quantum Shutter, Yusuf Zi̇ya Umul Jan 2009

General Formulation Of The Scattered Matter Waves By A Quantum Shutter, Yusuf Zi̇ya Umul

Turkish Journal of Physics

The scattering process of matter waves by a quantum shutter is investigated by using the spectrum integral representation. The scattered fields are expressed in terms of the Fresnel function. It is shown that the obtained equation gives the Moshinsky function for a one dimensional problem of the plane wave. Also a general integral representation is derived for two dimensional problems. The scattering of matter waves for some special wave-packets are examined analytically and numerically.


Prediction Of The Pressure-Induced Phase Transition In Gaas By The Positron Affinity, Belabbes Soudini Jan 2009

Prediction Of The Pressure-Induced Phase Transition In Gaas By The Positron Affinity, Belabbes Soudini

Turkish Journal of Physics

The thermalized positron charge distribution is calculated as a function of pressure variation in GaAs. Calculations have been carried out via the independent particle method (IPM) coupled with the empirical pseudopotential method (EPM). Initial results show a clear asymmetrical positron charge distribution relative to the bond center. From this positron affinity we have calculated the ionicity character with respect to the pressure variation using our empirical formula. Our results show an agreement with the thermochemical phase diagram proposed by Phillips.


Effective Width And Expansion Energy Of The Interacting Condensed ^{87}Rb Bose Gas With Finite Size Effects, Ahmed Sayed Hassan, A. M. El-Badry Jan 2009

Effective Width And Expansion Energy Of The Interacting Condensed ^{87}Rb Bose Gas With Finite Size Effects, Ahmed Sayed Hassan, A. M. El-Badry

Turkish Journal of Physics

This work is devoted to study the temperature dependence of the effective width and expansion energy on the finite size and interaction effects (repulsive interactions). It is found that the effective size , and expansion energy in the radial direction E_y of a Bose gas follow a characteristic temperature dependence, i.e. , E_y \propto (T/T_0)^4 if T_0 < T and , E_y \propto (T/T_0) if T_0 > T. Our results show that these two parameters increases with the number of atoms, and with increasing repulsive interaction strength at temperature less than the transition temperature, (T < T_o); yet it has little effect at temperatures higher than the transition temperature (T > T_o). The obtained results are compared with the available experimental data for ^{87}Rb directly, full …

Turkish Journal of Physics

Based on the weakest bound electron potential model (WBEPM) theory, six energy levels of the autoionizing Rydberg series 6pns 3/2[3/2]_1 (n = 15-25), 6pns 3/2[3/2]_2 (n = 15-25), 6pnd 3/2[3/2]_1 (n = 13-25), 6pnd 3/2[5/2]_3 (n = 13-25), 6pnd 3/2[7/2]_3 (n = 14-25) and 6png 3/2[5/2]_2 (n = 5-25) of Pb I are calculated. Foreign level perturbation corrections are taken into account in calculations of four series among them. The theoretical calculated results are in good agreement with the known experimental data, and some energies without experimental values are predicted.

Generation Of Ultrafast Bright And Dark Pulse On Silicon Chip With Integrated Mach-Zehnder Interferometer Configuration, Jianwei Wu, Fengguang Luo Jan 2009

Generation Of Ultrafast Bright And Dark Pulse On Silicon Chip With Integrated Mach-Zehnder Interferometer Configuration, Jianwei Wu, Fengguang Luo

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper we propose and simulate ultrafast femtosecond bright and dark pulses, obtained simultaneously at the same center wavelength, based on silicon-on-insulator (SOI) waveguides in Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) configuration; the ultrafast pulsed pump is injected into one MZI's arm and a continuous wave component (CW) is divided equally into the two MZI arms. Numerical results show that properties of the generated bright and dark pulses are strongly dependent on the launching optical powers of both the pump pulse and CW carriers, and on the waveguide length.

Electric Multipole Moments Of Some Diatomic Molecules Molecules, M. Özgür Sezer, Ayhan Özmen, Hüseyi̇n Yüksel

Turkish Journal of Physics

Molecular Electric Multipole Moment (MEMM) integrals have been derived for diatomic molecular systems, and then some lower multipole moments as dipole moments and quadrupole moments have been calculated for some diatomic molecules. The calculations have been performed by using our analytical formula over Slater-Type orbitals (STOs) with Cade and Huo's basis sets and the GAMESS program package working with Gaussian-Type basis sets (GTOs). The expressions which involve factorials are given in terms of binomial coefficients in order to speed up calculations. The results have been obtained in agreement with data found in the literature.

Kantowski-Sachs Viscous Fluid Cosmological Model With A Varying \Lambda, Sharad Kandalkar, Pramod Khade, Sunita Gawande Jan 2009

Kantowski-Sachs Viscous Fluid Cosmological Model With A Varying \Lambda, Sharad Kandalkar, Pramod Khade, Sunita Gawande

Turkish Journal of Physics

We study the Kantowski-Sachs cosmological model filled with viscous fluid in the presence of cosmological term \Lambda. To get a deterministic solution, a condition between metric potentials is used. The viscous coefficient of bulk viscous fluid is assumed to be a power function of mass density, whereas coefficient of shear viscosity is considered proportional to scale of expansion in the model. It is found that the cosmological constant \Lambda is positive and is a decreasing function of time, which is supported by results from recent supernova observations. Some physical and geometrical properties of the models are also discussed.

The obtained solution agrees well with the previously known solution in the literature. The first integral method is easier and quicker than other traditional techniques. It is shown that the first integral method is a standard and direct method, which may allow us to solve other more complicated solitary wave problems.

Turkish Journal of Physics

The differential cross section of quasi-elastic neutrino scattering by nuclei is computed. The numerical analysis of energy dependence of the spin asymmetry, the angular electron-neutrino (e\nu) correlation and the charge asymmetry coefficients shows that the relative contribution of the second-class current (SCC) tensor form factor can reach some tens of percents in the case of particular values of final nuclei alignment and polarization.


Behavior Of Transition Amplitude And Evolution Of The Energy Of Quantum Kicked Rotator, Abdolrasoul Gharaati Jan 2009

Behavior Of Transition Amplitude And Evolution Of The Energy Of Quantum Kicked Rotator, Abdolrasoul Gharaati

Turkish Journal of Physics

I give certain analytical properties of quantum kicked rotators, both theoretic and observed from computation. I give an expression for the wave function between two successive impulses. An element of the transition matrix, the matrix that takes the wave function from one impulse to another, exponentially falls away from the main diagonal. The decay parameter is given for a few special cases of a periodic potential. Finally, the transition matrix is used to derive the time evolution of the energy for periodic cases and for fundamental resonances. The empirical expressions of Dorizzi et al. are compatible with our analytical results.

A general definition for ideal complex permittivity in a liquid mixture was reached by considering a thermodynamically ideal mixture under the effect of an applied harmonic electric field. The resulting definition is independent of any particular dielectric model, as well as the polarity of the components.
