351 Mishchenko, Eugene; Raikh, Mikhail E.Electrostatics of straight and bent single-walled carbon nanotubesResponse of a single-walled carbon nanotube to external electric field, F, is calculated analytically within the classical electrostatics. Field-induced charge density distribution is approximately linear along the axis of a metallic nanotube and depends rather weakly, as ln(h/ r), on the nanotube...Electrostatics2006-10
352 Symko, Orest GeorgeExchange interactions and magnetic dimension in Cu(L-alanine)2A study of the magnetic properties of the copper (II) complex of the amino acid L-alanine [CU(Lalanine) 2] is reported. The susceptibility of a powder sample has been measured between 0.013 and 240 K. A linear-spin-chain model with antiferromagnetic exchange coupling J = -0.52 K fits well the susce...Cu(L-alanine)2; Exchange interactions; Magnetic dimension1991-01
353 Jorgensen, ErikUNC-11, a Caenorhabditis elegans AP180 homologue, regulates the size and protein composition of synaptic vesiclesThe unc-11 gene of Caenorhabditis elegans encodes multiple isoforms of a protein homologous to the mammalian brain-specific clathrin-adaptor protein AP180. The UNC-11 protein is expressed at high levels in the nervous system and at lower levels in other tissues.

354 Rogachev, AndreyDetermination of the superconductor-insulator phase diagram for one-dimensional wiresWe establish the superconductor-insulator phase diagram for quasi-one-dimensional wires by measuring a large set of MoGe nanowires. This diagram is roughly consistent with the Chakravarty-Schmid-Bulgadaev phase boundary, namely, with the critical resistance being equal to RQ ¼ h=4e2. Deviations fr...One-dimensional wires; Superconductor-insulator phase diagram; MoGe; Chakravarty-Schmid-Bulgadaev; Phase boundary2008-11

358 Wu, Yong-ShiSuppression of local degrees of freedom of gauge fields by chiral anomaliesA path-integral quantization is presented for the chiral Schwinger model on a Riemann surface. Gauge invariance is maintained by integrating over all gauge potentials without the usual gauge fixing. All local degrees of freedom of the gauge field are suppressed after the integration of the anomalous...Chiral anomalies; Degrees of freedom1990-08
359 Mattis, Daniel C.; Paul, PrabasajStatistical transfer matrix of a spin-glass ladderThis work concerns the Edwards-Anderson Ising model of a spin ladder, in which random bonds +_J connect nearest-neighbor Ising spins. We calculate the exact free energy of the quenched, frustrated, spin-glass-like ladder as an integral over a probability distribution P(x), the eigenfunction of a s...Thermodynamics; Ising1999
360 DeTar, CarletonExotic mesons in quenched lattice QCDSince gluons in QCD are interacting fundamental constituents just as quarks are, we expect that in addition to mesons made from a quark and an antiquark, there should also be glueballs and hybrids ~bound states of quarks, antiquarks, and gluons!. In general, these states would mix strongly with th...Hybrid mesons; Antiquarks1997-12
361 Saam, BrianWall relaxation of 3He in spin-exchange cellsThe 3He longitudinal spin-relaxation rate T1-1 is crucial for production of highly polarized 3He by spin-exchange optical pumping. We show that T1-1 is increased by a factor of 2-20 solely by exposure of spin-exchange cells to a few-kG magnetic field. The original T1-1 can be restored by degaussing ...Wall relaxation; Spin-exchange cells; 3He; Longitudinal spin-relaxation; Spin-exchange optical pumping; SEOP; Hyperpolarized 3He; Surface magnetism; Glass cells2001-09
