Spin hydrodynamic equations with external disturbances and suitable Green's functions for superfluid3He-B. New onsager relations

The spin hydrodynamic equations for superfluid³He-B have been obtained for the case of external, time-dependent fields. On the basis of a microscopic approach, expressions are found for additional terms in equations containing these fields. Considering the linear response of the system to the switching on of external fields, formulas are found for suitable Green's functions (magnetization-magnetization, rotation-rotation, magnetization-rotation, rotation-magnetization). The rotation-rotation Green's function has the 1/q ² singularity characteristic of superfluid systems. Connections between Green's functions lead to relations among kinetic coefficients v, ₁, and ₂. It is also shown that there is a conserved quantityQ ^(B) = div v _s ^(B) that describes sources or magnetic type charges (monopoles) of the superfluid velocity v _s ^(B) . Comparison with the phenomenological approach suggests thatQ ^(B) is proportional to a pseudoscalar giving the projection of the spin density onto the vector describing the axis of rotation.

Sound propagation in 3He-4He mixtures near the superfluid transition

Measurements of the acoustic attenuation and dispersion in liquid ³He-⁴He mixtures near the superfluid transition T (x) are reported. The frequency range is /2gp=1–45 MHz and the ³He mole fraction X of the mixtures is 0.007, 0.05, 0.15, and 0.36. Comparisons are made with the measurements of Buchal and Pobell for similar mixtures obtained in the kHz region, and on the whole, the consistency between the two experiments is very satisfactory. An analysis is then performed using both the kHz and MHz data. In the normal phase, where the energy dissipation is caused by order parameter fluctuations having a lifetime _F , the attenuation data can all be scaled according to the expression = (T )f(_F. Here (T )^1+y, with y being a function of the mole fraction X and _F(T–T )^–x, with x increasing weakly with X. In the superfluid phase, we attempt a similar scaling representation, which is found to be fairly successful, but where x(T\s-T ) is roughly 15% larger than x(T>T ). In the superfluid phase we also analyze the attenuation data, assuming the additivity of relaxation and fluctuation-dissipation mechanism, and discuss the relaxation times so derived. In contrast to the attenuation, the dispersion data cannot be brought satisfactorily into a scaling representation. However, at T , we find U()-U(0)^y as predicted by Kawasaki, where y is in good agreement with the values from attenuation experiments.Supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation.

Recovery of a creep-deformed Type 316 stainless steel

The recovery of the dislocation structures produced in a Type 316 steel during creep has been examined by annealing over a range of temperatures and times, both in the presence and in the absence of stress. The influence of dislocation recovery on subsequent reloading behaviour has also been examined.Initial dislocation recovery occurs rapidly but the rate of recovery subsequently decreases as precipitate effects become more important. Dislocation recovery in the early, rapid stage appears to be controlled by vacancy diffusion between the dislocation links. The application of stress during recovery leads to an enhancement of the recovery rate in agreement with the network coarsening model whilst the incremental strains observed on reloading after recovery correlate well with the changes in dislocation structure produced during the recovery periods.List of symbols and appropriate values l dislocation link length - D _s self diffusion coefficient - b Burgers vector (2.5×10^–1 m) - C _j equilibrium jog concentration - dislocation link tension - k Boltzman's constant (1.38×10^–23 J atom^–1 K^–1) - T absolute temperature - t recovery time - M mobility term - Z frictional term associated with particles - _d dislocation density determined from micrographs - N _d number of dislocation intersections on test line - p length of test line - S foil thickness - ¯l mean dislocation link length - _c mean intragranular particle (carbide) spacing - r ₀ mean intragranular particle radius at timet=0 - r _t mean intragranular particle radius at timet - D solute diffusion coefficient - B solubility of M₂₃C₆ in austenite - particle-matrix interface energy - atomic volume (10^–29m³) - change in dislocation density during recovery period - incremental strain associated with reloading after recovery period - K constant - dislocation density - ₀ dislocation density at timet=0 - _t dislocation density at timet - ₀ friction stress associated with particles - constant (1) - shear modulus - angle between dislocation segments as dislocation breaks through a particle - A 1 cos (/2) - E constant - creep rate - F Taylor factor - L mean slip distance of dislocations - rate of dislocation recovery - stress - _y yield stress - J strength coefficient - _p plastic strain

Nonmonotonic Temperature Dependence of the Thermal Hall Angle of a YBa2Cu3O6.95 Single Crystal

We have performed high-resolution measurements of the magnetic field (0 TB9 T) and temperature (10 KT<140 K) dependence of the longitudinal and transverse Hall thermal conductivity of a twinned YBa₂Cu₃O_6.95 single crystal. We have used and compared two recently published methods to extract the thermal Hall angle _H(T, B). Our results indicate that cot(_H) varies quite accurately as T⁴ in the intermediate temperature range 0.3c. It shows a well defined minimum at T_m20 K which resembles that observed in the c-axis microwave conductivity. The electronic part of the longitudinal and the transverse thermal conductivity show the scaling behavior for transport properties predicted for d-wave superconductors in the temperature range 18 KT30 K.     

Critical dynamics of a sheared micellar solution

We have investigated the dynamic behavior of a nonionic micellar solution of tetra-ethylene glycoln-decylether (C₁₀ E₄) in water near its critical point in the presence of shear.

Thermodynamics of the quasiequilibrial growth of crazes

By comparing the morphology and physical properties (averaged over the scale of 1 to 10m) of a crazed and uncrazed polymer, it can be concluded that crazing is a new phase development in the initially homogeneous material. The present study is based on recent work on the general thermodynamic explanation of the development of a damaged layer of material. The treatment generalizes the model of a crack-cut in mechanics. The complete system of equations for the quasiequilibrial craze growth follows from the conditions of local and global phase equilibrium, mechanical equilibrium and a kinematic condition. Constitutive equations of craze growth-equations are proposed that are between the geometric characteristics of a craze and generalized forces. It is shown that these forces, conjugated with the geometric characteristics of a craze, can be expressed through the known path independent integrals (J, L, M,). The criterion of craze growth is developed from the condition of global phase equilibrium.

The dielectric properties of glass-ceramic-on-metal substrates for microelectronics packaging

The dielectric properties of some glass-ceramic-on-metal substrates have been determined over the frequency range 500 Hz to 5 MHz using a.c. bridge techniques. The substrates consisted of cordierite-based glass-ceramics screen printed on molybdenum. For glass layers of thickness greater than 100 m both the permittivity, and the dielectric loss, , are frequency independent over this frequency range at room temperature giving the value of =6.5 and tan =8×10^–3; the room-temperature data are consistent with the universal law of dielectric response. The variation of permittivity with temperature has also been examined and, below 120 °C, the temperature coefficient [(–1) (+2)]^–1 (/T)_p, was found to be 1.3×10^–5 K^–1. The results are compared with those previously reported for Al₂O₃ and AIN substrates.

Summary The problem of heat transfer enhancement of mixed convective flow past heated blocks in a horizontal channel is investigated.

Investigation of the thermal and electrical transport properties of niobium and niobium films at temperatures between 9 and 50 K

The thermal conductivity and the electrical conductivity of niobium crystals and niobium films have been investigated in the normal state from 9 to 50 K. The deviations from the Matthiessen rule, w=/T+T², have been studied in detail for the thermal case. The investigation shows a slight dependence of the electron-phonon scattering coefficient upon the impurity content of the sample. With the specific electrical residual resistivity ₀ as the measure for the impurity content, the following correlation can be formulated: =1.2×10^-2[₀/-cm)]^0.04, being obtained in cm/W K. Above 20 K an additional scattering mechanism occurs. The temperature dependence of the additional resistance W between 20 and 50 K is proportional to T ^5.5 ··· T ⁴. Possible causes of this phenomenon are discussed. For the discussion, all the data available in the literature on the thermal conductivity of niobium in this temperature region are used.     

Equation of state of a3He-4He mixture near its liquid-vapor critical point

Measurements of the pressure coefficient (P/T)_,x are reported for a ³ He- ⁴ He mixture with a mole fractionX=0.805 of ³ He in the neighborhood of the liquid-vapor critical point. These include data on 16 isochores taken over the density interval–0.50.5 and over the temperature range–0.1 t0.1, where =(– _c )/ _c andt=(T-T _c )/T _c ,with _c andT _c ,respectively, the critical density and temperature of the mixture. From the discontinuity of (P/T)_,x at the boundary between the two-phase and the one-phase regions we determine the dew-bubble curve nearT _c with better precision than was done in recentPVT experiments. From the extrapolation of data not approachingT _c closer than1 mK, (P/T)_,x along the critical isochore appears to be discontinuous atT _c ,while for the isochore / _c 0.92, (P/T)_,x is continuous across the dew curve. It is found that this latter isochore cuts the dew curve at its highest temperature. These observations are discussed in terms of general thermodynamic arguments and theoretical predictions of the asymptotic behavior. We calculate (P/T)_,x from the scaling equation of state proposed by Leung and Griffiths for ³ He- ⁴ He mixtures, using their numerical parameters. In spite of some systematic deviations, especially in the two-phase region, there is in general good agreement with experimental results. In particular, the shape of the measured dew-bubble curve and the apparent discontinuity of (P/T)_,x along the critical isochore show excellent agreement with theory.Work supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation.
