Liko and Wesson have recently introduced a new five-dimensional induced matter solution of the Einstein equations, a negative curvature Robertson-Walker space embedded in a Riemann-flat five-dimensional manifold. We show that this solution is a special case of a more general theorem prescribing the structure of certain N+1 dimensional Riemann-flat spaces which are all solutions of the Einstein equations. These solutions encapsulate N-dimensional curved manifolds. Such spaces are said to "induce matter" in the submanifolds by virtue of their geometric structure alone. We prove that the N-manifold can be any maximally symmetric space. (c) 2005 American Institute of Physics.

Relative charge transfer cross section measurements for the excited state Rb (4d) with 7 keV Na+ is reported. The specific channels reported as Na+ + Rb (4d5/2) → Na (nl) + Rb+, where the dominant transfer cross sections channels were nl = 3d and 4s. Using a combination of a magneto-optical trap and recoil ion momentum spectroscopy (MOTRIMS methodology), the cross sections were measured relative to the previously studied Na+ + Rb (5s, 5p) systems at the same collision energy.
