Doppler Shift In Frequency In The Transport Of Electromagnetic Waves Through An Underdense Plasma, Jerry Peacher, Kenneth M. Watson Oct 1970

Doppler Shift In Frequency In The Transport Of Electromagnetic Waves Through An Underdense Plasma, Jerry Peacher, Kenneth M. Watson

In an earlier publication, the validity of the radiation transport theory was studied for the calculation of multiple scattering of electromagnetic waves by a turbulent plasma. In the present paper, we extend the transport theory to include a description of the Doppler shift in frequency caused by electron motion.


Differential Cross Section For Charged A₁ Photoproduction Using The Regge Exchange Formalism, Keiji Kikkawa, Barbara N. Hale Feb 1970

Differential Cross Section For Charged A₁ Photoproduction Using The Regge Exchange Formalism, Keiji Kikkawa, Barbara N. Hale

The Regge-pole formalism is applied to the calculation of the differential cross section for A1+ photo-production in the region |tmin| < -t < 10µ2. The p, A1, A1-daughter, A2, and π trajectory contributions are considered, and use is made of chiral dynamics to estimate the unknown coupling constants. We find that the π and the A2 trajectories provide the dominant contributions.

Measurements Of Excited-State Population Ratios Of Atomic Hydrogen Produced By Charge-Exchange Neutralization Of Energetic Proton Beams, Robert H. Mcfarland, Archer H. Futch Jan 1970

Measurements Of Excited-State Population Ratios Of Atomic Hydrogen Produced By Charge-Exchange Neutralization Of Energetic Proton Beams, Robert H. Mcfarland, Archer H. Futch

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

Excited-state population ratios for atomic hydrogen have been measured for energetic hydrogen ions neutralized by charge exchange with a number of different metallic vapors and permanent gases. Electric field ionization techniques were used to determine excitation ratios. Detection of the energetic ions and neutrals was accomplished using partially depleted surface-barrier detectors. Counting, using phase-detection techniques in which an add-subtract scaler was phased to the signal, provided an improved signal-to-noise ratio. Two methods were used to provide desired targets. Metallic vapor and permanent-gas thin targets of the order of 10-5 mTorr cm were produced as chopped neutral beams, using conventional crossed-beam …


Energy-Loss Spectra And Collision Cross Sections For Impact Of 20-120-Kev Positive Ions On Molecular Nitrogen, F. D. Schowengerdt, John T. Park Jan 1970

Energy-Loss Spectra And Collision Cross Sections For Impact Of 20-120-Kev Positive Ions On Molecular Nitrogen, F. D. Schowengerdt, John T. Park

Inelastic energy-loss spectra induced by impact of H+, H2+, and Ar+ on N2 have been measured at incident ion energies of 20-120 keV, with an energy resolution of about 2 eV. Prominent peaks are observed at energy losses of 9.5 and 13.8 eV. The first of these is well resolved and is attributed to excitation of the Lyman-Birge-Hopfield (LBH) system of N2. The peak at 13.8 eV is believed due primarily to excitation of the bu1 band of the Worley-Jenkins series. The locations of these features on the energy-loss scale do not agree with results of the electron impact work …


Ground-State Wave Function Of Shallow Donors In Uniaxially Stressed Silicon: Piezohyperfine Constants Determined By Electron-Nuclear Double Resonance, Edward B. (Boyd) Hale, Theodore G. Castner Jan 1970

Ground-State Wave Function Of Shallow Donors In Uniaxially Stressed Silicon: Piezohyperfine Constants Determined By Electron-Nuclear Double Resonance, Edward B. (Boyd) Hale, Theodore G. Castner

Stress-induced changes in the ENDOR spectra of a shallow donor electron interacting with various Si29 nuclei neighboring the donor have been experimentally and theoretically investigated. For each of the three measured donors - As, P, and Sb - the compressional, uniaxial stress was applied along the [001] axis and its magnitude corresponded to strains up to 10-3. To describe the observed linear and quadratic shifts and splitting's of the lines in an ENDOR shell, we have defined a set of piezo hyperfine constants. One piezo hyperfine constant was measured for each axis-class shell; three independent piezo hyperfine constants were measured …

Cross Section For Excitation Of The Fourth Positive Band System In Carbon Monoxide By 20-120 Kev Protons, John T. Park, D. R. Schoonover, George W. York

Excitation cross sections for the fourth positive band system in carbon monoxide have been determined from studies of the energy-loss spectra of 20-120-keV protons incident on gaseous CO targets. The energy-loss spectra had an energy resolution of about 2 eV. Prominent peaks in the spectra were observed at 8.5 and 13.8 eV. The first peak is believed to be due to excitation of the fourth positive band system of CO (X+1A 1, while the 13.8-eV peak covers a number of possible states, including the B+2 and the C+1 states. Changes in the slope of the ionization continuum were noted at …


Theory Of Droplet Growth In Clouds. I. The Transient Stage Of The Boundary-Coupled Simultaneous Heat And Mass Transport In Cloud Formation, John C. Carstens, Joseph T. Zung Jan 1970

Theory Of Droplet Growth In Clouds. I. The Transient Stage Of The Boundary-Coupled Simultaneous Heat And Mass Transport In Cloud Formation, John C. Carstens, Joseph T. Zung

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

Two solutions to the system of equations describing the simultaneous heat and mass transport involved in the condensational growth of a droplet in a supersaturated atmosphere are presented. The first, valid for very short times, describes the transient stage of such growth; the second, valid for longer times, presupposes the establishment of a steady-state condition. The two are shown to be complementary for the cases examined. The equations examined satisfy the usual boundary conditions imposed on a drop in a concentric sphere as required by the cellular model for cloud formation. Hence our results can be immediately extended to the …
