A Theoretical Model For The Non-Linear Susceptibility Of The Antiferromagnetic Systems, Beki̇r Özçeli̇k, Keri̇m Kiymaç, Ahmet Eki̇ci̇bi̇l Jan 2001

A Theoretical Model For The Non-Linear Susceptibility Of The Antiferromagnetic Systems, Beki̇r Özçeli̇k, Keri̇m Kiymaç, Ahmet Eki̇ci̇bi̇l

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this study, we have developed a general theoretical model, based upon the simple mean field model of N\'{e}el, for the non-linear response of an antiferromagnetic system. The results indicate that the odd order derivatives, (d^{2n + 1}m_{a})_{0} = (-d^{2n + 1}m_{b})_{0}, where n=1,2,3......, will diverge and the even order derivatives, (d^{2n}m_{a})_{0} = (d^{2n}m_{b})_{0} will vanish due to the symmetry of two sublattices, ``a'' and ``b'', forming the antiferromagnet. This model also supports our experimental results performed on two antiferromagnetic samples, namely, Cs_{2}MnCl_{4}.2H_{2}O and MnCl_{2}.4H_{2}O [1].

Double Transition Effect In Anderson Transition, Hüseyi̇n Aktaş Jan 2001

Double Transition Effect In Anderson Transition, Hüseyi̇n Aktaş

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this work we have studied the electronic mobility \mu within a completely disordered lattice system by using the strong interatomic hopping potential V(r) = ( - {\frac{{r}}{{a_{o}} }}) \exp( - r / a_{o} ) for site representation of the Hamiltonian. It is shown that a metallic system of a completely disordered lattice first goes insulating and then goes back to metallic again at higher atomic density \rho .

Path Integral Treatment For Spinless Relativistic Equation In The Two Component Theory, M. Merad, T. Boudjedaa, Lyazid Chetouani Jan 2001

Path Integral Treatment For Spinless Relativistic Equation In The Two Component Theory, M. Merad, T. Boudjedaa, Lyazid Chetouani

Turkish Journal of Physics

In this paper we have set up a path integral formalism for Feshbach-Villars equation by using the fermionic Schwinger model for Pauli matrices which describe an isocharge symmetry. This choice is made in analogy with spin model and the coherent state representation is then used. We have also given a general method of treating the problem of vanishing scalar potential by reducing it the to non-relativistic case and then, via Foldy-Wouthuysen canonical transformation, an explicit solution is constructed. The free case and constant magnetic field interaction are explicitly exposed. In each cases the propagators are evaluated and the energy spectrum …

Accurate Parameter Estimation For An Articulatory Speech Synthesizer With An Improved Neural Network Mapping, Hali̇s Altun, Tankut Yalçinöz, K. Mervyn Curtis Jan 2001

Accurate Parameter Estimation For An Articulatory Speech Synthesizer With An Improved Neural Network Mapping, Hali̇s Altun, Tankut Yalçinöz, K. Mervyn Curtis

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

Neural network (NN) applications have recently been employed to extract the parameters of an articulatory speech synthesizer from a given speech signal. Results from these attempts showed that a single NN is insufficient to cover all of the possible configurations uniquely. Moreover, apart from their computational advantages, NN mapping is so far not superior to the other mapping techniques [1]. Thus there is a clear need to improve NN solution to the inverse problem. Results from our earlier experiments with an articulatory speech synthesizer have shown that the statistical characteristic of the articulatory target pattern vectors can be exploited for …

Scalar Wave Diffraction By A Perfectly Soft Infinitely Thin Circular Ring, Fati̇h Di̇kmen, Ertuğrul Karaçuha, Yury Alexanderovich Tuchkin

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

A new strong mathematically rigorous and numerically effective method for solving the boundary value problem of scalar (for example acoustic) wave diffraction by a perfectly soft (Dirichlet boundary condition) infinitely thin circular ring is proposed. The method is based on the combination of the Orthogonal Polynomials Approach, and on the ideas of the methods of analytical regularization. As a result of the suggested regularization procedure, the initial boundary value problem is equivalently reduced to the infinite system of the linear algebraic equations of the second kind, i.e., to an equation of the type ( (I + H) x = b …

Cross-Correlation Noise Studies In Atomic Magnet-Optic Rotation Spectroscopy, Ahmet T. İnce Jan 2001

Cross-Correlation Noise Studies In Atomic Magnet-Optic Rotation Spectroscopy, Ahmet T. İnce

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Analytical signals in an Atomic Magneto-Optic Rotation spectrometer are buried in noise at the limit of detection. The noisy analytical signals were analysed by carrying out mathematical correlation of their time domain waveforms. The noise components of signals were removed by auto-correlation to simplify the study. If noise interferes in analytical signals whose source is unclear, a cross-correlation of the output waveform with noise source may identify the source, e.g., mains frequencies and background radio signals. A cross-correlation will reveal whether the two signals are derived from the same source. This can also lead to an improvement in the signal …
