Glossary Physics (I-Introduction)
1 Glossary Physics (I-introduction) - Efficiency: The percent of the work put into a machine that is converted into useful work output; = work done / energy used [-]. = eta In machines: The work output of any machine cannot exceed the work input (<=100%); in an ideal machine, where no energy is transformed into heat: work(input) = work(output), =100%. Energy: The property of a system that enables it to do work. Conservation o. E.: Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it may be transformed from one form into another, but the total amount of energy never changes. Equilibrium: The state of an object when not acted upon by a net force or net torque; an object in equilibrium may be at rest or moving at uniform velocity - not accelerating. Mechanical E.: The state of an object or system of objects for which any impressed forces cancels to zero and no acceleration occurs. Dynamic E.: Object is moving without experiencing acceleration. Static E.: Object is at rest.F Force: The influence that can cause an object to be accelerated or retarded; is always in the direction of the net force, hence a vector quantity; the four elementary forces are: Electromagnetic F.: Is an attraction or repulsion G, gravit. const.6.672E-11[Nm2/kg2] between electric charges: d, distance [m] 2 2 2 2 F = 1/(40) (q1q2/d ) [(CC/m )(Nm /C )] = [N] m,M, mass [kg] Gravitational F.: Is a mutual attraction between all masses: q, charge [As] [C] 2 2 2 2 F = GmM/d [Nm /kg kg 1/m ] = [N] 0, dielectric constant Strong F.: (nuclear force) Acts within the nuclei of atoms: 8.854E-12 [C2/Nm2] [F/m] 2 2 2 2 2 F = 1/(40) (e /d ) [(CC/m )(Nm /C )] = [N] , 3.14 [-] Weak F.: Manifests itself in special reactions among elementary e, 1.60210 E-19 [As] [C] particles, such as the reaction that occur in radioactive decay. -

Quantum Theory of the Hydrogen Atom
Quantum Theory of the Hydrogen Atom Chemistry 35 Fall 2000 Balmer and the Hydrogen Spectrum n 1885: Johann Balmer, a Swiss schoolteacher, empirically deduced a formula which predicted the wavelengths of emission for Hydrogen: l (in Å) = 3645.6 x n2 for n = 3, 4, 5, 6 n2 -4 •Predicts the wavelengths of the 4 visible emission lines from Hydrogen (which are called the Balmer Series) •Implies that there is some underlying order in the atom that results in this deceptively simple equation. 2 1 The Bohr Atom n 1913: Niels Bohr uses quantum theory to explain the origin of the line spectrum of hydrogen 1. The electron in a hydrogen atom can exist only in discrete orbits 2. The orbits are circular paths about the nucleus at varying radii 3. Each orbit corresponds to a particular energy 4. Orbit energies increase with increasing radii 5. The lowest energy orbit is called the ground state 6. After absorbing energy, the e- jumps to a higher energy orbit (an excited state) 7. When the e- drops down to a lower energy orbit, the energy lost can be given off as a quantum of light 8. The energy of the photon emitted is equal to the difference in energies of the two orbits involved 3 Mohr Bohr n Mathematically, Bohr equated the two forces acting on the orbiting electron: coulombic attraction = centrifugal accelleration 2 2 2 -(Z/4peo)(e /r ) = m(v /r) n Rearranging and making the wild assumption: mvr = n(h/2p) n e- angular momentum can only have certain quantified values in whole multiples of h/2p 4 2 Hydrogen Energy Levels n Based on this model, Bohr arrived at a simple equation to calculate the electron energy levels in hydrogen: 2 En = -RH(1/n ) for n = 1, 2, 3, 4, . -

In order to be a well-behaved function, there are some conditions over the values of discrete variables that must be followed i.e. boundary conditions. Therefore, we can conclude that principal (n), azimuthal (l) and magnetic (m) quantum numbers are obtained as a solution of the Schrodinger wave equation for hydrogen atom; and these quantum numbers are used to define various quantum mechanical states. In this section, we will discuss the properties and significance of all these three quantum numbers one by one. Principal Quantum Number The principal quantum number is denoted by the symbol n; and can have value 1, 2, 3, 4, 5…..∞. -

Historically, there have been consistent discrepancies found between the two main methods used to measure gas-phase elemental abundances: collisionally excited lines and optical recombination lines in H II regions (ionized nebulae around young star-forming regions). The origin of the discrepancy is thought to hinge primarily on the strong temperature dependence of the collisionally excited emission lines of metal ions, principally Oxygen, Nitrogen, and Sulfur. This problem is exacerbated by the difficulty of measuring ionic temperatures from these species. -

Atom-Light Interaction and Basic Applications
ICTP-SAIFR school 16.-27. of September 2019 on the Interaction of Light with Cold Atoms Lecture on Atom-Light Interaction and Basic Applications Ph.W. Courteille Universidade de S~aoPaulo Instituto de F´ısicade S~aoCarlos 07/01/2021 2 . 3 . 4 Preface The following notes have been prepared for the ICTP-SAIFR school on 'Interaction of Light with Cold Atoms' held 2019 in S~aoPaulo. They are conceived to support an introductory course on 'Atom-Light Interaction and Basic Applications'. The course is divided into 5 lectures. Cold atomic clouds represent an ideal platform for studies of basic phenomena of light-matter interaction. The invention of powerful cooling and trapping techniques for atoms led to an unprecedented experimental control over all relevant degrees of freedom to a point where the interaction is dominated by weak quantum effects. This course reviews the foundations of this area of physics, emphasizing the role of light forces on the atomic motion. Collective and self-organization phenomena arising from a cooperative reaction of many atoms to incident light will be discussed. The course is meant for graduate students and requires basic knowledge of quan- tum mechanics and electromagnetism at the undergraduate level. The lectures will be complemented by exercises proposed at the end of each lecture. The present notes are mostly extracted from some textbooks (see below) and more in-depth scripts which can be consulted for further reading on the website http://www.ifsc.usp.br/∼strontium/ under the menu item 'Teaching' −! 'Cursos 2019-2' −! 'ICTP-SAIFR pre-doctoral school'. The following literature is recommended for preparation and further reading: Ph.W. -
Taxonomy of Belarusian Educational and Research Portal of Nuclear Knowledge
Taxonomy of Belarusian Educational and Research Portal of Nuclear Knowledge S. Sytova� A. Lobko, S. Charapitsa Research Institute for Nuclear Problems, Belarusian State University Abstract The necessity and ways to create Belarusian educational and research portal of nuclear knowledge are demonstrated. Draft tax onomy of portal is presented. 1 Introduction President Dwight D. Eisenhower in December 1953 presented to the UN initiative "Atoms for Peace" on the peaceful use of nuclear technology. Today, many countries have a strong nuclear program, while other ones are in the process of its creation. Nowadays there are about 440 nuclear power plants operating in 30 countries around the world. Nuclear reac tors are used as propulsion systems for more than 400 ships. About 300 research reactors operate in 50 countries. Such reactors allow production of radioisotopes for medical diagnostics and therapy of cancer, neutron sources for research and training. Approximately 55 nuclear power plants are under construction and 110 ones are planned. Belarus now joins the club of countries that have or are building nu clear power plant. Our country has a large scientific potential in the field of atomic and nuclear physics. Hence it is obvious the necessity of cre ation of portal of nuclear knowledge. The purpose of its creation is the accumulation and development of knowledge in the nuclear field as well as popularization of nuclear knowledge for the general public. *E-mail:[email protected] 212 Wisdom, enlightenment Figure 1: Knowledge management 2 Nuclear knowledge Since beginning of the XXI century the International Atomic Energy Agen cy (IAEA) gives big attention to the nuclear knowledge management (NKM) [1]-[3] .
