    Description: This chapter takes advantage of recent insights from the history of emotions to offer a fresh perspective on children’s emotional responses to death. Drawing on a range of printed and archival sources, it argues that children expressed diverse and conflicting emotions, from fear and anxiety, to excitement and ecstasy. In contrast to Houlbrooke and Stannard, I have found that children’s responses seem to have changed little over the early modern period. This continuity is largely due to the endurance of the Christian doctrine of salvation, with its hauntingly divergent fates of heaven and hell.

    Notes: By using a Green function Q to characterize the linear response of a dielectric body to electric charges, we obtain a theory for the solvent dielectric contribution to relaxation along the reaction coordinate RC(t) in an electron transfer process. For an electron transfer reaction model, in which the ions are embedded in a dielectric continuum, the theory gives, at t=0, the reorganization free energy derived by Marcus in 1956. For the same model the characteristic time τQ associated with RC(t) is evaluated in terms of the dielectric function εω of the medium. How the rate constant ket for an electron transfer process depends on τQ is illustrated for both high-barrier and low-barrier cases by approximating RC(t) as a Smoluchowski process on a potential surface. Applying the theory to a molecular model (charged hard sphere ions in a dipolar hard sphere solvent), treated in the mean spherical approximation for the response at any frequency (Wolynes, 1987), indicates that the effects of the molecular structure of the solvent on τQ are large even if the ion is several times larger than a solvent molecule.

    Compressional acoustic wave generation in microdroplets of water in contact with quartz crystal resonators (2001)

    Notes: Resonating quartz crystals can be used for sensing liquid properties by completely immersing one side of the crystal in a bulk liquid. The in-plane shearing motion of the crystal generates shear waves which are damped by a viscous liquid. Thus only a thin layer of fluid characterized by the penetration depth of the acoustic wave is sensed by a thickness shear mode resonator. Previous studies have shown that the finite lateral extent of the crystal results in the generation of compressional waves, which may cause deviations from the theoretical behavior predicted by a one-dimensional model. In this work, we report on a simultaneous optical and acoustic wave investigation of the quartz crystal resonator response to sessile microdroplets of water, which only wet a localized portion of the surface. The relationship between initial change in frequency and distance from the center of the crystal has been measured for the compressional wave generation regions of the crystal using 2 and 5 μl droplets. For these volumes the initial heights do not represent integer multiples of a half of the acoustic wavelength and so are not expected to initially produce compressional wave resonance. A systematic study of the acoustic response to evaporating microdroplets of water has then been recorded for droplets deposited in the compressional wave generation regions of the crystals whilst simultaneously recording the top and side views by videomicroscopy. The data are compared to theoretically expected values of droplet height for constructive acoustic interference. Results are highly reproducible and there is good correlation between theory and experiment. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Molecular dynamics studies of the melting of butane and hexane monolayers adsorbed on the basal-plane surface of graphite (1993)

    Notes: The effect of molecular steric properties on the melting of quasi-two-dimensional solids is investigated by comparing results of molecular dynamics simulations of the melting of butane and hexane monolayers adsorbed on the basal-plane surface of graphite. These molecules differ only in their length, being members of the n-alkane series [CH3(CH2)n−2CH3] where n=4 for butane and n=6 for hexane. The simulations employ a skeletal model, which does not include the hydrogen atoms explicitly, to represent the intermolecular and molecule–substrate interactions. Nearest-neighbor intramolecular bonds are fixed in length, but the molecular flexibility is preserved by allowing the bend and dihedral torsion angles to vary. The simulations show a qualitatively different melting behavior for the butane and hexane monolayers consistent with neutron and x-ray scattering experiments. The melting of the low-temperature herringbone (HB) phase of the butane monolayer is abrupt and characterized by a simultaneous breakdown of translational order and the orientational order of the molecules about the surface normal. In contrast, the hexane monolayer exhibits polymorphism in that the solid HB phase transforms to a rectangular-centered structure with a short coherence length in coexistence with a fluid phase. A significant result of the simulations is that they demonstrate the importance of molecular flexibility on the nature of the melting transition. The formation of gauche molecules is essential for the melting process in the hexane monolayer but unimportant for butane. The effect of molecular length on the qualitative nature of the melting process is discussed for both monolayers.

    High-energy, large-momentum-transfer processes: The N-rung ladder diagram of cursive-phi3 theory (1991)
    College Park, Md. : American Institute of Physics (AIP)

    Notes: The asymptotic form of the amplitude for the N-rung ladder diagram in cursive-phi3 theory is calculated in the limit s(very-much-greater-than)||t||(very-much-greater-than)m2. The result is proportional to s−1||t||−N+1 times a homogeneous polynomial of degree 2N−2 in ln s and ln||t||. It is not an analytic function of s and t, although the first N+1 derivatives are continuous in the physical region. Points of nonanalyticity occur when ln||t||=γ ln s for γ= (1)/(2) , (1)/(3) ,..., 1/(N−2). The notion of reduced Symanzik functions is introduced. With the aid of these reduced Symanzik functions, a generating function is derived for the leading logarithms of all ladder diagrams.

    Notes: Functions that solve the Helmholtz equation in a bounded region are represented in the form of an integral on the unit sphere. The linear space needed for this, as well as the uniqueness of the representation, are investigated. A specific application of the technique to general spectral calculations for electrons in periodic crystals is included.

    Notes: The Korringa, Kohn, and Rostoker (KKR) conditions for Bloch waves that describe the motion of electrons in a perfect crystal, and the scattering of these waves by crystal impurities, are formulated by the methods of time-independent scattering theory without recourse to angular-momentum expansions. Generalized Levinson theorems (Friedel sum rules) are proved, including the possibility of half-bound states.

    Factorizations of the S matrix (1990)

    Notes: The S matrix of the Schrödinger equation, regarded as a function on the real axis with values in the group of unitary operators L2(S2)]L2(S2), where S2 is the unit sphere in R3, is factorized in two different ways. One of these is a standard Wiener–Hopf factorization with respect to the real line. The other is the kind of factorization that defines the Jost function and which has been found to be a useful tool for the solution of the inverse scattering problem. A number of results are given that relate the two factorizations, their existence as well as the indices they give rise to. Some known theorems on the standard factorization lead to new results for the three-dimensional inverse scattering problem for the Schrödinger equation with a noncentral potential; in particular, a characterization of admissible S matrices is obtained.
