A model for the quantum yield of the coloration caused by UV-light in spiropyran layers is described. This model allows to calculate the sensitivity of layers having different compositions. The mechanism concerning the stability of the coloration is essentially clarified. Calculations of the stability for layers of different compositions are possible by a model describing the mechanism approximately.
Angular distributions for elastic and inelastic transitions in 20Ne + 16O scattering have been measured at E(20Ne)=50 MeV. For the 0+, 2+, and 4+ members of the 20Ne ground-state rotational band, the angular distributions exhibit pronounced backward peaking characteristic of an alpha -cluster exchange mechanism. The analysis of the ground-state transition in the first-order elastic transfer model yields no satisfactory fit although microscopic cluster form factors and full recoil corrections are employed. A coupled channels calculation for the 0+, 2+, and 4+ transitions reveals very strong coupling effects, indicating that the coherent superposition of first-order optical model and distorted-wave Born-approximation amplitudes may not be an adequate model for these reactions.

A simple model is proposed for the emission of nucleons with velocities intermediate between those of the target and projectile. In this model, the nucleons which are mutually swept out from the target and projectile form a hot quasiequilibrated fireball which decays as an ideal gas. The overall features of the proton-inclusive spectra from 250- and 400-MeV/nucleon 20Ne ions and 400-MeV/nucleon 4He ions interacting with uranium are fitted without any adjustable parameters.
During collisions of heavy ions with heavy targets below the Coulomb barrier, adiabatic molecular orbitals are formed for the inner electrons. Deviations from adiabaticity lead to coupling between various states and can be treated by time-dependent perturbation theory. For high charges ( Z1+Z2 ≧ 60) the molecular electrons are highly relativistic. Therefore, the Dirac equation has to be used to obtain the energies and wave functions. The Dirac Hamiltonian is transformed into the intrinsic rotating coordinate system where prolate spheroidal coordinates are introduced. A set of basis functions is proposed which allows the evaluation of all matrix elements of the Dirac Hamiltonian analytically. The resulting matrix is diagonalized numerically. The finite nuclear charge distribution is also taken into account. Results are presented and discussed for various characteristic systems, e. g. Br-Br, Ni-Ni, I-I, Br-Zr, I-Au, U -U, etc.
the development of the mass asymmetry vibrations in the final stages of the fission process is studied with an approximate treatment of the coupling to relative motion. A parametrized friction is introduced and its effects are studied. Numerical results are presented for 236U, together with estimates for the kinetic energy of the fragments. RADIOACTIVITY, FISSION 236U; calculated mass distribution, kinetic energy distribution. Collective dynamics, shell correction method, cranking model.
Internal conversion of γ rays from Coulomb-excited nuclear levels cannot be neglected compared with the spontaneous and induced positron production in overcritical electric fields. It is shown that both processes are separable by their different distributions with respect to the ion angle and the positron energy.
Double-differential cross sections have been measured for high-energy p, d, t, 3He, and 4He particles emitted from uranium targets irradiated with 20Ne ions at energies of 250, 400, and 2100 MeV/nucleon and 4He ions at 400 MeV/nucleon. By using the shape and yield of the proton energy spectra, the shape and yield of the d, t, 3He, and 4He energy spectra can be deduced at all measured angles for all incident projectile energies by assuming that they are formed by a coalescence of cascade nucleons, using a model analogous to that of Butler and Pearson, and Schwarzschild and Zupancic-caron.
An improved two-center model has been used to describe the elastic scattering potentials for the collision of identical nuclei. The macroscopic-microscopic approach includes liquid drop (LD) deformation energies, shell corrections and pairing energy corrections. As basis for the microscopic part a two-center shell model has been used with a Hamiltonian including a Thomas-type spin-orbit potential and an l2 correction term. The model is applied to the sudden and adiabatic type of scattering process, including a compression energy term in the LD part for the former case. Results are given as potential energy surfaces for the adiabatic scattering process and potential energy curves for the sudden scattering process.
The energy spectra of protons and light nuclei produced by the interaction of 4He and 20Ne projectiles with Al and U targets have been investigated at incident energies ranging from 0.25 to 2.1 GeV per nucleon. Single fragment inclusive spectra have been obtained at angles between 25° and 150°, in the energy range from 30 to 150 MeV/nucleon. The multiplicity of intermediate and high energy charged particles was determined in coincidence with the measured fragments. In a separate study, fragment spectra were obtained in the evaporation energy range from 12C and 20Ne bombardment of uranium. We observe structureless, exponentially decaying spectra throughout the range of studied fragment masses. There is evidence for two major classes of fragments; one with emission at intermediate temperature from a system moving slowly in the lab frame, and the other with high temperature emission from a system propagating at a velocity intermediate between target and projectile. The high energy proton spectra are fairly well reproduced by a nuclear fireball model based on simple geometrical, kinematical, and statistical assumptions. Light cluster emission is also discussed in the framework of statistical models.

Quasimolecular resonance structures in the 12C-12C system are studied in the framework of the coupled channel formalism in the energy range Ec.m.=5-14 MeV. The influence of the coupling of the first excited 2+ state in 12C on the resonance structures is investigated by choosing various types of coupling potentials. The intermediate structures in the reflection and transition coefficients and cross sections can be interpreted with the double resonance mechanism. NUCLEAR REACTIONS 12C(12C, 12C), quasimolecular states, coupling potentials, coupled channel calculations for σ(θ).
The theory of direct electron-positron pair production in the collision of heavy ions is formulated in the framework of the quasimolecular model. The pair production process acquires a collective nature for (Z1+Z2)α>1 and can be understood as the shakeoff of the strong vacuum polarization cloud formed in the quasimolecule. The total cross section is, e.g., 76 μb for Pb + Pb at Coulomb barrier energies.
Light-particle accompanied fission is expected to yield results from which one hopes to learn more about binary scission configurations. As a step in this direction, we present a model that allows the calculation of the probabilities with which a given three-particle setup follows from different binary configurations. First results show the workability of the model.
Coupled channel calculations for Coulomb and nuclear excitation of the systems 136Xe-238U and 238U-238U have been performed using the rotation-vibration model. The impact parameter-, energy-and spin-dependence of the excitation probabilities are discussed for the ground state-, β-and γ-band up to Jπ = 36+. It is shown that the energy levels and quadrupole matrix elements are strongly influenced by the rotation-vibration interaction. Analytic expressions for the elastic and coupling potentials are presented.
The reactions of diluted aqueous solutions of SO2 resp. HSO3-ions with MnO4-or Ce4+ ions in the pH range 1-4 produce chemiluminescence in the spectral region of 450-600 nm. Measurements of the time course of the light emission and their simulation on an analog computer led to a reaction scheme in which a recombination product of primarily formed HSO3 radicals -of a lifetime of about 1 second -appears as precursor of electronically excited SO2 molecules. The participation of singlet oxygen can be excluded because at least the reaction with Ce4+ ions proceeds also in the absence of oxygen.
Two equations for the macroscopic part W of the statistical operator are considered:
1. the master equation W = — MW, t
2. the exact equation W = — J K(t — r) W (r) dr.
It follows from the physical equivalence of the solutions together with a stability assumption and the assumption that there is a time τ* after which also the derivatives of the solutions are equivalent, that τ* is the life-time of the kernel K and that Conversely, the equivalence of the solutions follows from assumptions on the life-time of the kernel K together with a stability assumption and a smoothness assumption on the initial statistical operator W(0).
