TL;DR: In this article, the oscillatory and asymptotic behavior of all solutions of a class of n th order (n > 1) nonlinear differential equations with deviating arguments involving the so-called nth order r -derivative of the unknown function x defined by where r 1, (i = 0,1,…, n − 1) are positive continuous functions on [ t 0, ∞] was studied.
Abstract: This paper deals with the oscillatory and asymptotic behaviour of all solutions of a class of n th order ( n > 1) non-linear differential equations with deviating arguments involving the so called n th order r -derivative of the unknown function x defined by where r 1 , ( i = 0,1,…, n – 1) are positive continuous functions on [ t 0 , ∞). The results obtained extend and improve previous ones in [7 and 15] even in the usual case where r 0 = r 1 = … = r n–1 = 1.

TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that oxygen forms oxide-like bonds with Cu(100), and the work function minimum min and maximum min and max of Cs on clean Cu100 was lowered and shifted to a longer time Cs deposition with pre-adsorbed oxygen.

TL;DR: In this article, a theoretical review and a detailed phonomenological description of the "flavoring" of the bare Pomeron pole at t = 0 (i.e., the nondiffractive renormalization of its multi-peripheral unitarity sum by strange quarks, charmed quark, diquarks,...) from an ''unflavored'' intercept alpha-circumflex = 0.85 to a ''flavored" intercept..cap alpha.. approx. = 1.08.
Abstract: We present a theoretical review and a detailed phonomenological description of the ''flavoring'' of the bare Pomeron pole at t = 0 (i.e., the nondiffractive renormalization of its multiperipheral unitarity sum by strange quarks, charmed quarks, diquarks,...) from an ''unflavored'' intercept alpha-circumflex = 0.85 to a ''flavored'' intercept ..cap alpha.. approx. = 1.08. Experimentally, flavoring effects seem to converge rapidly; hence this number is probably close to the bare intercept of the Reggeon field theory. We treat NN, ..pi..N, and KN total cross sections and real to imaginary amplitude ratios. We do not observe oscillations. We pay particular attention to 2sigma/sub K/N - sigma/sub piN/ which rises monotonically. We present a closely related combination of inelastic diffraction cross sections which decreases monotonically, indicating that vacuum amplitudes are not simply the sum of a Pomeron pole and an ideally mixed f. In fact we argue that a Pomeron + f structure is neither compatible with flavoring nor with schemes in which flavoring is somehow absorbed away. In contrast, flavoring is required for consistency with experiment by the Chew-Rosenzweig hypothesis of the Pomeron-f identity. We close with a description of flavoring threshold effects on the Reggeon field theory at current energies.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the ratio of the neutral to charged current events is found to be independent of the nuclear models and sufficiently sensitive to permit discrimination among various fashionable models of neutral currents.
Abstract: Cross sections for neutrino scattering on /sup 1/4N to specific nuclear states are calculated. The ratio of the isovector neutral to charged current events is found to be independent of the nuclear models and sufficiently sensitive to permit discrimination among various fashionable models of neutral currents. Low energy neutrino elastic cross sections for p-shell nuclei are predicted to be of the order of 10/sup -/39 cm/sup 2/.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared three theories of bending for a beam having rectangular cross-section and showed that the values of bending stresses given by the Winkler theory are very close to Golovin's exact results.
Abstract: From the two ‘approximate’ theories of bending—Elementary Theory and Winkler available to designers for the determination of bending stresses in beams having initial curvature, the Winkler approximate solution is the one closer to the exact solution development by Golovin. Timoshenko and Goodier show a comparison of stresses resulting from the three theories for a beam having rectangular cross-section. It is shown here that the values of bending stresses given by Winkler theory are very close to Golovin's exact results. The difference between the two theories lies in the range of 0·1–3·1 % increasing with the ratio, c/a , of the outer to inner radius of curvature of the beam. The above close relationship between the two theories for a beam of rectangular cross-section is also reported by Ford.

We also analyse the semi-classical bound-state spectrum of this theory at finite temperatures by applying quantum statistics to the fluctuations which determine the quantum dynamics of these bound states.
