go to top   Deduced Fundamental Properties of the Electron
         by Bo Lehnert

         Vol. 4. n. 1, pp. 1-6

 

Abstract - A model of the electron has been elaborated from an earlier revised quantum electrodynamic theory, being based on a nonzero electric field divergence in the vacuum state. In terms of an alternative renormalization process, and in support of an improved numerical iteration scheme, the fundamental measured properties of the electron have been reproduced by the theory. The electronic charge, magnetic moment, mass, and angular momentum are thus deduced under relevant quantum conditions. This process appears not only to apply to the electron, but also to the myon and tauon. The results have been obtained from an appropriate choice of only two single counter-factors which appear in the present alternative renormalization process. The latter eliminates the problem of an infinite self-energy. It could possibly also provide an option to the Higgs mechanism, and to string theory.

        by Jian Qi Shen

        Vol. 4. n. 1, pp. 7-19

 

Abstract - A new spin-connection gravitational gauge theory that preserves a local Lorentz-group gauge invariance is suggested. The gravitational Lagrangian (gauge invariant) that is quadratic in curvature is constructed. In order to formulate a gauge theory, where the gravitationally coupling constant is dimensionless, we assume that the gravitating matter has a doublet structure, i.e., the ordinary matter field and its accompanying heavy intermediate coupling (HIC) field form a doublet state. It is shown that the Einstein field equation appears as a first-integral solution to the low-energy gravitational gauge field equation of the present spin-connection gravity theory, and that the Newtonian gravitational constant is actually a low-energy propagator of the HIC field. In addition, the concept of Yang-Mills vielbein field is introduced and the vielbein structure of the Yang-Mills gauge field is revealed in order to reformulate the Yang-Mills field as a generalized vielbein field, and hence the gravitational gauge field and the Yang-Mills field can be incorporated in one unified vielbein formulation. The gravitational gauge theory presented here would provide a new insight into some important problems of cosmology and quantum field theory such as the cosmological constant puzzle and the unification of fundamental forces..

go to top   Using Passive Acoustics for Marine Mammal Observations: Multidisciplinary Observatories, Materials and Software
         by N. Gandilhon, O. Adam, M. Louis

        Vol. 4. n. 1, pp. 20-28

 

Abstract - Various methods exist for observing marine mammals, each having its advantages and drawbacks. It is possible to employ more one method simultaneously as they are complementary. This article presents these methods and focuses on the use of passive acoustics for marine mammal observation. We provide specifics on the required material, the various underwater acoustic propagation models and the software used for the detection of sounds emitted by cetaceans. This paper presents the recent international projects included in marine mammal observation. The conclusion will outline perspectives on the passive acoustic methods for whale observation.

go to top   The 2nd Law of Thermodynamics Delineates Dispersal of Energy
         by Arto Annila
         Vol. 4. n. 1, pp. 29-34

 

Abstract - The 2nd law of thermodynamics as an equation of motion is derived from statistical physics of open systems. It describes, by the principle of increasing entropy, systems in evolution from one state to another, more probable one when energy flows from high to low densities along the paths of least action, i.e., geodesics toward the stationary state of free energy minimum in respective surroundings. The universal law equates changes in kinetic energy with changes in scalar and vector potentials, as is given by equations of basic, continuum and quantum mechanics as well as by those of fluid, electro- and thermodynamics. The Law in its scale-independent form gives holistic understanding of nature in motion with no distinction between animate and inanimate.

go to top   The Study of the Transport Phenomenon in the Cubic GaN, AlN and InN by the Monte Carlo Simulation Method
         by N. Bachir, A. Hamdoune, B. Bouazza, N. E. Chabane-Sari
        Vol. 4. n. 1, pp. 35-38

 

Abstract - Recent progress in the growth and the understanding of the physics of the semiconductor III-nitrides lead to an extension of their application areas. These materials are very useful for the application of ternary and quaternary alloys. They offer a wide variety of compositions varying their electronic properties. Also, they are of great importance especially in the optoelectronic fields, where they find a very wide scope of applications; they are commonly used in green, blue and ultraviolet LEDs as well as laser diodes and ultraviolet detectors.
In this work, we are interested in studying the transport phenomenon n the compounds, aluminium nitride (AlN), gallium nitride (GaN), and Indium nitride (InN), in the cubic form, using the Monte Carlo simulation method. We calculate the electrons speed as a function of electric field for different temperatures between T=77 K up to 1000 K, and for different electron concentrations

go to top   Interaction of Intense Laser Field with Large Clusters of Kr
         by N. Boucerredj, E. Suraud, M. Belkacem, F. Megi

        Vol. 4. n. 1, pp. 39-44

 

Abstract - We examine the interaction of short and intense femtosecond laser field with Kr clusters contained (∼10⁷atoms). Efficient heating of the cluster by laser is followed by rapid expansion of the cluster and leads to his final explosion. We have used the modified nanoplasma model (by adding tne the term of electron surface collision frequency in the expression of the electron-ion collision frequency) for the study of the interaction of an intense laser field with large Kr clusters, and have found that the hydrodynamic pressure is larger than the coulomb one and the electron energy of electrons after the pulse is passed is found of order of 2.5keV.

go to top  Oscillatory Mixed Convection Flow in a Cylindrical Container with Rotating Disk under Axial Magnetic Field and Various Wall Electrical Conductivity
        by Fateh Mebarek-Oudina, Rachid Bessaïh

        Vol. 4. n. 1, pp. 45-51

 

Abstract - We numerically study the onset of oscillatory swirling liquid metal flow in a cylindrical container, which is subjected to a vertical temperature gradient and an axial magnetic field. The finite volume method is used to solve the equations of continuity, momentum, energy, and electric potential. The computer code developed here is validated via a comparison with experimental data founded in the literature. Stability diagrams are established according to the numerical results of this investigation. These diagrams highlight the dependence of the critical Reynolds numbers Recr with the values of the Richardson Ri and Hartmann numbers Ha. The effect of the rotating disk and the bottom wall conductivity on the flow is also studied.
