Vardeny, Zeev Valentine | Magneto-optical studies of photoexcitations in C61 | We have used a variety of cw optical and optically detected magnetic-resonance techniques to characterize long-lived photoexeitations in methanofullerene (C6 1) as a dispersion in polystyrene glass, at temperatures below 10 K.

DeTar, Carleton | Exotic mesons in quenched lattice QCD | Since 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; Antiquarks | 1997-12 |

Saam, Brian | Wall relaxation of 3He in spin-exchange cells | The 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 cells | 2001-09 |
