Świat malowany słowem. Analiza pola semantycznego nazw barw w Máju Karla Hynka Máchy

2011

Autorka w swoim artykule przedstawia pole semantyczne barw w najważniejszym dziele czeskiego romantyzmu Máj, napisanym przez Karla Hynka Máchę. Klasyfikuje ona nazwy kolorów według części mowy: rzeczowniki, przymiotniki, przysłówki i czasowniki z uwzględnieniem pasm tęczy (wyrazy nazywające kolory wprost i pośrednio). Ponadto podaje listę leksemów, które wyrażają intensywność nasycenia światła i efekt mroku. Autorka dochodzi do wniosku, że ważne miejsce w opisie przyrody zajmuje gra świateł, a także wydobycie przejściowych kontrastów światła przez Karla Hynka Máchę. Authoress, in her article, presents semantic field of colours in the most important work of Czech romanticism entitled Máj wri…

A fully manipulable damped driven harmonic oscillator using optical levitation

2020

We implement an experimental system based on optical levitation of a silicone oil droplet to demonstrate a damped driven harmonic oscillator. The apparatus allows us to control all the parameters present in the differential equation that theoretically describes such motion. The damping coefficient and driving force can be manipulated in situ by changing the pressure in the apparatus and by applying a variable electric field. We present two different experimental procedures. First, a transition from the overdamped to underdamped regimes is demonstrated by gradually lowering the air pressure. The characteristic resonance associated with an underdamped driven harmonic oscillator is observed by…

Design of an FBG based-on sensor device for large displacement deformation

2013

This article deals with the modeling of a strain-displacement transducer conceived for extending the FBG measurement range. The intrinsic fragility of the optical fiber limits their application to cases characterized by relatively small deformations. To extend the employ to the large displacement field (i.e. morphing applications), a dedicated device was conceived, constituted by a circular ring connected to the structure and laterally integrated with a FBG sensor. This device was mathematically modeled minimizing the potential energy this way arriving at a description of the displacement and deformation field along the curvilinear abscissa. The theoretical predictions were then validated t…

Resolving the Fundamentals of Magnetotransport in Metals with Ultrafast Terahertz Spectroscopy

2016

Using terahertz spectroscopy we directly resolved the fundamentals of spin-dependent conductivity in ferromagnetic metals. We quantified the differences in conduction by Fermi-level electrons with opposite spins on the sub-100 fs timescale of electron momentum scattering.

Characterisation of a symmetric AGATA detector using the imaging scanning technique

2013

Abstract The imaging scanning technique for the characterisation of large volume, highly segmented, HPGe detectors is demonstrated by comparing the measured spatial response of a symmetric AGATA crystal versus the theoretical calculations obtained with the Multi-Geometry Simulation (MGS) code. The signal rise-times measured as a function of the gamma-ray interaction positions, in both coaxial and planar regions of the detection volume, are presented and confronted with the expected behaviour obtained via MGS. The transition in charge carrier transport behaviour as a function of the depth is studied for the region of the complex electric field. In general, a fairly good agreement between the…

Search for a Standard Model Higgs Boson inWH→ℓvbb¯inpp¯Collisions ats=1.96  TeV

2009

We present a search for a standard model Higgs boson produced in association with a W boson using 2.7 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity of pp collision data taken at square root s = 1.96 TeV. Limits on the Higgs boson production rate are obtained for masses between 100 and 150 GeV/c(2). Through the use of multivariate techniques, the analysis achieves an observed (expected) 95% confidence level upper limit of 5.6 (4.8) times the theoretically expected production cross section for a standard model Higgs boson with a mass of 115 GeV/c(2).

Ni61Mössbauer study of the hyperfine magnetic field near the Ni surface

1987

$^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$ M\"ossbauer measurements have been performed at 4.2 K on spherical Ni particles covered with a protective layer of SiO, with average diameter of 500 and 50 \AA{}. The hyperfine magnetic field at $^{61}\mathrm{Ni}$ nuclei for 500-\AA{} particles has been found to be 78.3(4) kOe, compared with the field for Ni foil of 75.0(2) kOe. The small difference is due to the demagnetization and dipolar fields in 500-\AA{} particles. The spectrum of 50-\AA{} particles has a surface component with the corresponding value of the hyperfine magnetic field of 40.3(5.4) kOe. This strongly indicates that, in accordance with recent theoretical studies, there is a decrease of the hyperfine mag…

Muon physics — Survey

1992

The empirical basis of the minimal standard model has been consolidated in an impressive way, over the last seventeen years, by precision experiments at the meson factories. I illustrate this by means of selected examples of muonic weak interaction processes. I then describe an extension of Yang-Mills theory, inspired by noncommutative geometry, that yields precisely the standard model but fixes and explains some of its empirical input. In particular, this new approach yields a simple geometrical interpretation of spontaneous symmetry breaking. The algebraic framework of this approach offers a natural place for the lepton and quark matter fields and for inter-family mixing.

More compact invariant manifolds appearing in the non-linear coupling of oscillators

2006

Abstract Near partially elliptic rest points of generic families of vector fields or transformations, many types of normally hyperbolic invariant compact manifolds can appear, diffeomorphic to intersections of quadrics.
