We have measured the spin struction functions g2(p) and g(2)(d) and the virtual photon asymmetries A(2)(p) and A(2)(d) over the kinetmatic range 0.02 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.8 and 0.7 less than or equal to Q2 less than or equal to 20 GeV2 by scattering 29.1 and 32.3 GeV longitudinally polarized electrons from transversely polarized NH3 and (LiD)-Li-6 targets. Our measured g2 approximately follows the twist-2 Wandzura-Wilczek calculation. The twist-3 reduced matrix elements d(2)(p) and d(2)(n) are less than two standard deviations from zero. The data are inconsistent with the Burkhardt-Cottingham …

Measurements of the angular distributions of target and double-spin asymmetries for the Δ+(1232) in the exclusive channel → p(→e,e'p)π0 obtained at the Jefferson Lab in the Q2 range from 0.5 to 1.5 GeV2/c2 are presented. Results of the asymmetries are compared with the unitary isobar model [D. Drechsel , Nucl. Phys. A645, 145 (1999)], dynamical models [T. Sato and T. S. Lee, Phys. Rev. C 54, 2660 (1996); S. S. Kamalov , Phys. Lett. B 27, 522 (2001)], and the effective Lagrangian theory [R. M. Davidson , Phys. Rev. …

The cross section for the reaction ep→ e'pπ+π- was measured in the resonance region for 1.4 2 < 1.5 GeV2/c2using the CLAS detector at Jefferson Laboratory. The data show resonant structures not visible in previous experiments. The comparison of our data to a phenomenological prediction using available information on N* and Δ states shows an evident discrepancy. A better description of the data is obtained either by a sizable change of the properties of the P13(1720) resonance or by introducing a new baryon state, not reported in published analyses.

Molecular Dynamics Simulation Of The Order- Disorder Phase Transition In Solid Nano2, Wei-Guo Yin, Chun-Gang Duan, Wai-Ning Mei, Jianjun Liu, Robert W. Smith, John R. Hardy Jan 2003

Molecular Dynamics Simulation Of The Order- Disorder Phase Transition In Solid Nano2, Wei-Guo Yin, Chun-Gang Duan, Wai-Ning Mei, Jianjun Liu, Robert W. Smith, John R. Hardy

Physics Faculty Publications

We present molecular dynamics simulations of solid NaNO2 using pair potentials with the rigid-ion model. The crystal potential surface is calculated by using an a priori method which integrates the ab initio calculations with the Gordon-Kim electron gas theory. This approach is carefully examined by using different population analysis methods and comparing the intermolecular interactions resulting from this approach with those from the ab initio Hartree-Fock calculations. Our numerics show that the ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition in solid NaNO2 is triggered by rotation of the nitrite ions around the crystallographical c axis, in agreement with recent x-ray experiments @Gohda et al., …

Comparison Of The Theoretical And Experimental Band Structure Of Poly (Vinylidene Fluoride) Crystal, Chun-Gang Duan, Wai-Ning Mei, John R. Hardy, Stephen Ducharme, Jaewu Choi, Peter A. Dowben Jan 2003

Comparison Of The Theoretical And Experimental Band Structure Of Poly (Vinylidene Fluoride) Crystal, Chun-Gang Duan, Wai-Ning Mei, John R. Hardy, Stephen Ducharme, Jaewu Choi, Peter A. Dowben

Physics Faculty Publications

The electronic structure and band symmetries of the ferroelectric phase of poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) are studied by using the first-principles density-functional method. Our calculated results agree well with the angle-resolved photoemission experiments. We find that the PVDF crystal has an energy gap of about 6 eV at the Γ-point. Large dispersion of the valence band is found only along the chain direction, which is consistent with the quasi-one-dimensional nature of PVDF. In particular, the band symmetries of the valence states deduced theoretically are in good agreement with experiment. Finally, further investigations on the electronic structure of poly(trifluoroethylene) (PTrFE) …

Modeling Of Hysteresis And Magnetization Curves For Hexagonally Ordered Electrodeposited Nanowires, Petru S. Fodor, Georgy M. Tsoi, Lowell E. Wenger Jan 2003

Modeling Of Hysteresis And Magnetization Curves For Hexagonally Ordered Electrodeposited Nanowires, Petru S. Fodor, Georgy M. Tsoi, Lowell E. Wenger

Physics Faculty Publications

A computational model has been developed to investigate how the magnetostatic interactions affect the hysteresis and magnetization curves for hexagonal arrays of magnetic nanowires. The magnetization coupling between nanowires arises from the stray fields produced by the other nanowires composing the array such that the field at each nanowire is the sum of the external field and the interaction field with the other nanowires. Using only two adjustable parameters: the interaction between nearest neighbors and the width of the Gaussian distribution in switching fields centered around the measuredcoercivity, simulations are compared with the experimentally measuredhysteresis and magnetization curves for electrodepositedCo0.45 …

Zero Magnetization States In Electrodeposited Co0.45fe0.55 Nanowire Arrays, Petru S. Fodor, Georgy M. Tsoi, Lowell E. Wenger Jan 2003

Zero Magnetization States In Electrodeposited Co0.45fe0.55 Nanowire Arrays, Petru S. Fodor, Georgy M. Tsoi, Lowell E. Wenger

Physics Faculty Publications

Co0.45Fe0.55 alloy nanowires with 12 to 35 nm diameter and 12 μm length were fabricated by electrodeposition in porous anodic alumina templates. The initial magnetization curves reveal that the zero magnetization state is not unique and is determined by the field history (acdemagnetization process) leading to the zero average moment state. For acdemagnetization processes with the field applied parallel to the nanowire axis, the subsequent magnetization curves suggest that an individual nanowire behaves as a single domain with neighboring nanowires being antiparallel to each other in the zero magnetization state. However, for a demagnetization process with the field applied perpendicular …

Spectral Functions Of The Falicov-Kimball Model With Electronic Ferroelectricity, Wei-Guo Yin, Wai-Ning Mei, Chun-Gang Duan, Hai-Qing Lin, John R. Hardy Jan 2003

Spectral Functions Of The Falicov-Kimball Model With Electronic Ferroelectricity, Wei-Guo Yin, Wai-Ning Mei, Chun-Gang Duan, Hai-Qing Lin, John R. Hardy

Physics Faculty Publications

We calculate the angular resolved photoemission spectrum of the Falicov-Kimball model with electronic ferroelectricity where d- and f-electrons have different hoppings. In mix-valence regimes, the presence of strong scattering processes between d – f excitons and a hole, created by emission of an electron, leads to the formation of pseudospin polarons and novel electronic structures with bandwidth scaling with that of d – f excitons. Especially, in the two-dimensional case, we find that flat regions exist near the bottom of the quasiparticle band in a wide range of the d- and f-level energy difference.

Physics Faculty Publications

Asymmetries in quasi-elastic 3He(e→, e 'p) have been measured at a momentum transfer of 0.67 (GeV/c)2 and are compared to a calculation which takes into account relativistic kinematics in the final state and a relativistic one-body current operator. With an exact solution of the Faddeev equation for the 3He-ground state and an approximate treatment offinal state interactions in the continuum good agreement is found with the experimental data.

Physics Faculty Publications

The first measurements of the transferred polarization for the exclusive →ep → e'K+ →Λ over right arrow reaction have been performed at Jefferson Laboratory using the CLAS spectrometer. A 2.567 GeV beam was used to measure the hyperon polarization over Q2 from 0.3 to 1.5 (GeV/c)2, W from 1.6 to 2.15 GeV, and over the full K+ center-of-mass angular range. Comparison with predictions of hadrodynamic models indicates strong sensitivity to the underlying resonance contributions. A nonrelativistic quark-model interpretation of our data suggests that the s -s quark pair is produced with spins predominantly …

Measurement Of Correlated Multiple Light Scattering In Utracold Atomic 85Rb, P. Kulatunga, C. I. Sukenik, S. Balik, M. D. Havey, D. V. Kupriyanov, I. M. Sokolov Jan 2003

Measurement Of Correlated Multiple Light Scattering In Utracold Atomic 85Rb, P. Kulatunga, C. I. Sukenik, S. Balik, M. D. Havey, D. V. Kupriyanov, I. M. Sokolov

Physics Faculty Publications

We report an experimental study of correlated multiple light scattering in an ultracold gas of 85Rb confined in a magneto-optic trap. Measurements are made of the polarization dependence of the spatial and spectral profile of light backscattered from the sample. The results show an interferometric enhancement sensitive to coherent multiple scattering in the atomic gas, and strong variations with the polarization of the incident and detected light. The spatial width and peak value of the enhancement are found to be dependent on the sample size. Comparison of all the measurements with realistic quantum Monte Carlo simulations yields a very …

Physics Faculty Publications

We measured the inclusive electron-proton cross section in the nucleon resonance region (W <2.5 GeV) at momentum transfers Q2 below 4.5 (GeV/c)2 with the CLAS detector. The large acceptance of CLAS allowed the measurement of the cross section in a large, contiguous two-dimensional range of Q2 and x, making it possible to perform an integration of the data at fixed Q2 over the significant x interval. From these data we extracted the structure function F2 and, by including other world data, we studied the Q2 evolution of its moments, Mn(Q2), in order to estimate higher twist …

We report the results of a new measurement of spin structure functions of the deuteron in the region of moderate momentum transfer [Q2 = 0.27-1.3 (GeV/c)2] and final hadronic state mass in the nucleon resonance region (W=1.08-2.0 GeV). We scattered a 2.5 GeV polarized continuous electron beam at Jefferson Lab off a dynamically polarized cryogenic solid state target (15ND3) and detected the scattered electrons with the CEBAF large acceptance spectrometer. From our data, we extract the longitudinal double spin asymmetry A∥ and the spin structure function g1d. Our data are …

Interpretation Of The Θ+ As An Isotensor Pentaquark With Weakly Decaying Partners, Simon Capstick, Philip R. Page, Winston Roberts Jan 2003

Interpretation Of The Θ+ As An Isotensor Pentaquark With Weakly Decaying Partners, Simon Capstick, Philip R. Page, Winston Roberts

Physics Faculty Publications

The Θ+(1540), recently observed at LEPS, DIANA and CLAS, is hypothesized to be an isotensor resonance. This implies the existence of a multiplet where the Θ++, Θ+ and Θ0 have isospin-violating strong decays, and the Θ+++ and Θ− have weak decays and so are long-lived. Production mechanisms for the weakly-decaying states are discussed. The JP assignment of the Θ is most likely 1/2− or 3/2−.
